Chapter 237: Go to America Again
The next morning, Zhang Chengyuan woke up, and when he saw Li Zhen's pretty face in his arms, he habitually kissed him, still feeling a little guilty in his heart, last night he first confessed to the matter with Han Caiying, as he expected, Li Zhen didn't blame him much, but asked him to control his lust more in the future. Then, Li Zhen was extremely cooperative in satisfying his request, until he was so tired that he could barely move and did not order him to stop, but still silently endured his impact. In the end, Zhang Chengyuan himself felt unbearable, got off her, and mobilized his true qi to restore her strength.
was kissed by Zhang Chengyuan a few times, Li Zhen also woke up, last night thanks to Zhang Chengyuan spent his true qi to regulate her body, she was able to recover some of her strength so quickly, otherwise, she would have to lie in bed for most of the day to wake up - Zhang Chengyuan's impact last night was too violent, and it seemed to be stronger than in the past. I don't know if Zhang Chengyuan did this on purpose, or if he really couldn't control his body.
Li Zhen asked, "What time is it?" β
Zhang Chengyuan said: "It's almost 7 o'clock now, and I have a plane at 9 o'clock, so I have to get up now, otherwise I may not be able to catch up!" β
Li Zhen said: "Then I'll get up and make something to eat for you, right?" β
Zhang Chengyuan said: "No need, you can sleep again!" I'm leaving! He kissed Li Zhen on the face again, then got out of bed, took a new set of clothes from the closet, and put them on.
Li Zhen looked at him and suddenly said: "Cheng Yuan, this time you go to the United States, if you dare to bring back a foreign woman, I will cut off relations with you!" "If the woman Zhang Chengyuan is looking for is those kind and beautiful sisters around him, she can reluctantly accept it, but if he finds a random woman to come back, then she will definitely not be able to accept it!
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "Sister Zhen'er, you also underestimate me too much, those blonde and blue-eyed women can't get into my eyes, even if they are naked and standing in front of me, I won't be moved!" In his previous life, Westerners were no different from demons and monsters in his eyes, even if he would not think so now, but for him to accept foreign women, I am afraid that it will take thirty or forty years to adapt, and at that time, he may not have the intention to mess with flowers and grass anymore.
That night, Zhang Chengyuan arrived in Los Angeles alone, and then took a taxi to the film crew's location to meet everyone. When he arrived, the filming crew had finished filming for the day, and the members of the film crew had returned to the hotel where they were staying, but there were still many people who had not slept, and Cheng Long was one of them. Because when Zhang Chengyuan first arrived in Los Angeles, he called Cheng Long at the airport and told Cheng Long that he was going to rush to the film crew tonight to meet everyone, so Cheng Long specially waited for his arrival in the hotel restaurant.
Arrived at the hotel where the film crew was located, first went to check in to the hotel, but was told that someone had prepared a room for him a few hours ago, Zhang Chengyuan guessed that Cheng Long must have sent someone to handle it for him, and then led the way by a waiter, Zhang Chengyuan saw Cheng Long in the restaurant on the second floor, and immediately saluted him respectfully and thanked him: "Big brother, thank you for preparing a room for me." β
Cheng Long smiled: "It's not my money, it's the crew, so you don't need to thank me, this is what every actor deserves." β
Having said that, if it weren't for Cheng Long's special arrangement, I'm afraid that Zhang Chengyuan would have to take a lot of twists and turns to stay in the hotel tonight, and at night, how could it be so easy to find the relevant staff of the crew to deal with this matter for him. If you don't want to be so troublesome, that's fine, but Zhang Chengyuan himself has to advance the money first, and it will be a trouble to find the crew for reimbursement in the future. Therefore, Zhang Chengyuan was still very grateful to Cheng Long, but he did not thank him again, but kept this gratitude in his heart.
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, how is the movie being made and how is it going?" β
Cheng Long waved his hand and said, "You have been gone for about twenty days, how much progress can you make in twenty days?" You also know how troublesome it is to shoot action scenes in Hollywood. It took a lot of time just to prepare, so I filmed a few action scenes these days. Cheng Long has long been annoyed with Hollywood's various safety and insurance rules, but what mountains to go to, what songs to sing, and he has to follow the customs when he enters the township, even if Cheng Long is annoyed, he can only accept it helplessly, at most he will occasionally complain to people close to him.
Zhang Chengyuan said a little irritably: "So it seems that this film will have to be delayed for a long time to be filmed?" β
Cheng Long said: "To complete the filming of the whole film, I see how I can get it around the Spring Festival, or even longer, alas! What a waste of time, I still have a lot to do! β
Hearing him say this, Zhang Chengyuan couldn't help but sigh.
Cheng Long said suspiciously: "Why are you sighing too?" β
Zhang Chengyuan said: "I originally wanted to complete the work here in a month and a half, and then return to China to take over the filming of the TV series, but if it has to wait until around the Spring Festival to complete it, it will inevitably delay domestic affairs, so I sighed." β
Cheng Long pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "It may not be impossible!" You don't have much left, mainly the chase and fight scenes that I co-filmed, except for the chase scene on the street of Los Angeles, which should need to declare the filming time to the government and cannot be rescheduled, I can help you propose to the director to shoot first! Anyway, it's all about me, I think the director will give me some face! β
Zhang Chengyuan said gratefully: "Thank you big brother!" β
Cheng Long smiled: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me!" I'm sure I'll have something to ask you for help in the future, so I'll just exchange it in advance! β
Zhang Chengyuan said: "In the future, big brother, if you have anything you need me to do, please just ask, I will never shirk what I can do!" β
Cheng Long said: "I'll talk about this later." Let me ask you one thing first, have you arranged your itinerary for next year? β
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, you're joking, I'm not a top star, how can I arrange so far?" It's just that Ji Lu plans to make one or two TV series and a movie after returning to China next year, and there is nothing to do! β
Cheng Long said: "That's good! Around May next year, there is a Hollywood kung fu movie that depicts oriental myths and stories ready to start filming, I am one of the leading actors, I want to recommend you to play a big villain role, what do you think? β
Zhang Chengyuan said without hesitation: "I can cooperate with my eldest brother again, how can I refuse?" β
Although I don't know why Cheng Long values him so much, takes care of him many times, and even recommends him to star in Hollywood movies again this time, Zhang Chengyuan feels that Cheng Long has no malice, but only kindness, so he did not refuse. Maybe for others, it will be unsettling to repeatedly owe others kindness, but Zhang Chengyuan will not feel this way, because he feels that he has the ability to repay Cheng Long, such as consuming his true qi to treat Cheng Long for the pain and hidden dangers left by his filming.
It's just that at this time, if he rashly proposed to Cheng Long to recuperate for him, I was afraid that Cheng Long would not believe that he had this ability, so he would not make a move until Cheng Long trusted him more.
Cheng Long said: "Then it's decided!" After a while, the crew of that movie should contact you to audition, and you will perform well, but with your skills and quality in all aspects, I think it's just a formality! β
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Big brother, you have won the award, I will definitely prepare well for the audition and strive to pass it smoothly!" β
Cheng Long smiled: "Okay, that's all for today, it's getting late, I should go back to my room to rest, otherwise I'm afraid that I won't have the energy to film tomorrow, so you should go to bed early!" He stood up and waved his hand to Zhang Chengyuan, then turned around and left.
Zhang Chengyuan got up and saluted, and then went back to the room to rest.
The next day, Zhang Chengyuan met with other members of the crew and was warmly welcomed by everyone, especially the other leading actor Chris Tucker was very excited to see Zhang Chengyuan, he was very familiar with Zhang Chengyuan when he was in Paris, France, and had a very good impression of Zhang Chengyuan. It's a pity that this time in the crew, Zhang Chengyuan didn't see Zhang Jingchu, it is said that she will have to wait a few days before she arrives from China to come to the film crewββββ after the last shooting in Paris, she also returned to China like Zhang Chengyuan to do other things.
There was no scene of Zhang Chengyuan on this day, but he did not rest in the hotel, but followed the film crew to the filming site, continued to watch other people's filming, and helped others from time to time, such as moving equipment, sending drinks or something. When everyone else is working hard, he can't just stand idly and do nothing. As for whether he will feel embarrassed, he has no fame in Hollywood, and he doesn't need to care about this, and he didn't do this kind of thing when he first debuted in South Korea. In addition, the crew did not look down on him because of this.
Starting on the third day, Zhang Chengyuan's scene began to be filmed, obviously this is Cheng Long's fulfillment of his promise to Zhang Chengyuan, otherwise, Zhang Chengyuan estimates that he will have to wait a few more days before he starts filming. After that, Zhang Chengyuan's filming gradually intensified, although there was not filming every day, but it was basically his turn to shoot every day or two.
In addition to filming, Zhang Chengyuan did not waste time, but carefully observed the entire process of filming of the crew, not only observed the performance of all the actors, but also carefully recorded every move of the director, photographer, gaffer and other staff, and carefully figured out the tricks. Although this wish is still far from being realized, since there is such a wish, it is necessary to prepare for a rainy day and start preparing from now on. This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Chengyuan has been able to rise rapidly over the years, and when he makes up his mind to do something, he will be fully prepared.
One day during this period, he asked the crew for a day off because Cheng Youli unexpectedly came to Los Angeles for a vacation and contacted Zhang Chengyuan. This was a real surprise for Zhang Chengyuan, so he spent a day walking around the streets and major attractions of Los Angeles with Cheng Youli.
However, a day later, he was driven back to the crew by Cheng Youli to continue filming, because she was afraid of delaying his work. In order to avoid distraction from Zhang Chengyuan, she even changed the location of her vacation and flew to New York, USA, which made Zhang Chengyuan both choked and moved.
