Section 261 The Role of Li Jingyuan

After staying in the hotel for two days, Lee Kyung-won and Mira came to the airport again, and the person who was going to pick them up today was none other than Russell, the director of the film.

It sounds a little unbelievable, as the director of this movie, he didn't go with the big army to do those preliminary preparations, but only arrived now, which is also a bit too dereliction of duty.

In fact, if you want to talk about it, it's because of Li Jingyuan.

After seeing Li Jingyuan's video, CAP and Sony Pictures were shocked at the same time, and at their request, Li Jingyuan was given this opportunity to star. As a temporary actor, Li Jingyuan's arrival added a lot of trouble to the crew, and if he wanted to arrange a suitable role, he naturally had to make some changes to the script, and Russell flew to Europe to discuss with Mila's husband Paul for this matter, who made Paul the screenwriter of this movie, and he couldn't get away from coming to Australia.

"Hey, Lee, it's a pleasure to meet you." Russell, who is in his fifties, looks just like an ordinary white uncle, just a little more bookish.

"Hello Mr. Director, I hope my arrival has not affected your plans." Li Jingyuan had already learned from Mira's mouth that Russell was because of what happened at this time, so he directly lowered his posture. After all, it's a hassle for others, so it's still necessary to express it appropriately.

"Hehe, the plan will be adjusted according to the situation, to be honest, I was a little reluctant at first, but after seeing your video, I felt that this may not be a good idea." Russell, like other Europeans and Americans, spoke straightforwardly and didn't hide anything: "You look great at it, it should help you a lot." ”

"Thank you for the compliment, where you can use me, you can just say it." Li Jingyuan is also not polite, in his opinion, there will definitely be no one in this crew who is better than him, he is full of confidence in himself, and he is more confident when he speaks, which makes Russell very satisfied with it.

In European and American countries, people pay more attention to practicality, if you really have the ability, it is best to show it directly, modesty in their opinion, in fact, is a manifestation of lack of self-confidence, so Li Jingyuan's current appearance happened to be appreciated by Russell.

After receiving Russell, several people did not go back to the hotel, but directly in a small airport near this international airport, transferred to a small plane on the Australian domestic route, and set off towards Perth, a city in western Australia.

On the plane, Russell didn't waste any time, and directly showed the revised script to Li Jingyuan, and at this time, Li Jingyuan could be regarded as getting his own role.

In the original "Resident Evil 3" movie, there was no role suitable for Li Jingyuan, in order to add him as a role and not make the film have loopholes, Russell and Paul also took great pains to come up with a more suitable positioning.

The story of "Biohazard 3" follows the previous episode, with the earth-shattering explosion of powerful nuclear weapons, the entire "sinful" city of Lacohen has been directly erased from the map of the United States, and before the dust has fallen, several survivors have already embarked on their own survival path.

Among these people, Carlos, who is witty and brave. Oliveira, the brave and optimistic L.J, the sexy K Mart who was rescued along the way, Claire. Redfield, young nurse Betty, and the newly added Lee Kyung-won play Asian-American extreme sports enthusiast Lee Brown. Wesker.

Seeing the name of the character he played, Li Jingyuan felt very strange. It is important to know that the name Doudowesk represents in the "Resident Evil" series.

The Wesker Meter is a springboard for Spencer's own progenitor virus plan, and the Wesker test is called "WeskerChildren", similar to the "Magic Boy Plan" in Metal Gear Solid. Each of the test subjects is a highly gifted and intelligent child, and every WeskerChild will be consciously or unintentionally assigned by Spencer to be infected with an experimental variant of the Ancestral Virus, and will be monitored for observation. And the well-known Albert. Wesker was voluntarily injected with this test progenitor virus variant at the end of Biochemical 1, and the infection was successfully fused, and he was successfully resurrected after being killed by the tyrant. In the following series of biochemical games, Wesker has always existed as a villain supercharacter, and in "Resident Evil 5", he has become the final boss. ,

Whether it was a coincidence or a special arrangement, Li Jingyuan didn't ask much, he guessed that all this might depend on his own performance. If he performs well and is popular with the audience, then his character is likely to be arranged as a hidden character, and if it is not accepted by the audience, it is just a coincidence of the same name.

Let's not talk about the various suspense brought by this name, let's see what kind of character Li Jingyuan wants to play.

In the script, Lee Kyung-won plays Lee. Wesker's identity has been confirmed, but it hasn't been elaborated, and it's probably not necessary. After all, the current Li is just an ordinary person mixed in with the survivors, and if he says too much about his identity and origin, it will inevitably be a bit noisy.

Now look at this character image, as an extreme sports enthusiast, the first requirement is to be young, have good physical strength, excellent physical condition, and have a brave and courageous personality. In order to play the first supporting actor Carlos. Oliveira's characteristics are different, in addition to being brave, Li Jingyuan's character has been added some other elements, to be specific, that is, when there is no battle in peacetime, he should appear a little shy, and he belongs to the type of doing more and talking less.

Of course, the feature of doing more and talking less does not mean that Li Jingyuan's role is not important, after all, people worked hard to deliberately make such a role, not to let him be a trick. So in the case of relatively few lines, Li Jingyuan was given other tasks. The character in the play is an extreme athlete, so in terms of physical condition and athletic talent, Li Jingyuan has more opportunities to perform than others when fighting, and in terms of the number of shots, his role is no less than that of the first supporting actor.

Such a role is really suitable for Li Jingyuan, and it can almost be said that it is tailor-made for him. Saying fewer lines, for him, a newcomer to acting, means that there are fewer requirements and pressure, and doing more movements is completely Li Jingyuan's forte. Facial expression acting skills are not good, those things in terms of fighting, Li Jingyuan is an expert.

And COP and Sony Pictures seem to want Lee Kyung-won to show his abilities, and they also deliberately made a request to Paul and Russell when revising the script, so in the film, Lee Kyung-won also got a great opportunity for personal performance.

This is an inspiration from Li Jingyuan's video, which is to let him show the incredible parkour skills, which are also fighting zombies and attacking while running, Li Jingyuan believes that he will be able to perform very well.

"How is it, how do you feel when you see your character?" Seeing that Lee Kyung-won put down the script, Russell asked a question.

"Hehe, I have to say, this role is simply specially arranged for me, I dare not say anything else, I must be the most suitable person for this role." Li Jingyuan already had a rough picture in his mind, and imagining his performance in the movie, he couldn't help but smile.

Li Jingyuan's smile, in Russell's opinion, looks very confident, which also makes his evaluation of Li Jingyuan a little higher. After all, as a newcomer, after reading the script, there is no hesitation, no doubt that I can play this role well, and it is indeed a commendable thing to have such a strong confidence in myself.

"It's best if you're confident, by the way, I forgot to tell you, there are still some things, I want you to help."

"What is it? I hope it won't be too difficult, you know, I'm a newcomer, and it's better to leave the acting problems to the old-timers. Li Jingyuan also made a joke, he didn't think Russell would let him help train other people's acting skills.

"Hehe, don't worry, you must be able to do a good job. I'll just get to the point, one is the soundtrack of the movie, and I know that you're a very successful musician, so I hope you can help with that. As for the other thing, I want you to help guide the action scenes of the other actors, and I want the style not to shoot zombies from afar, but to fight at close range. ”

Hearing Russell's words, Li Jingyuan felt a little strange, to say that he should make the movie soundtrack, this is quite reasonable. But it's a bit outrageous to ask him to guide the fighting actions of other actors.

"I said, Mr. Director, isn't there an action director?" In Li Jingyuan's view, in such a film, the violent fight scenes must have been arranged a long time ago, and to shoot such a scene, action direction must be indispensable, and in the preliminary preparations, this candidate should have been arranged a long time ago.

"Yes, yes, but it's disgusting, I don't want to say it." As soon as he heard Li Jingyuan's question, Russell was angry.
