Jurassic Park 2 premiered on June 9, and on June 11, the crew of "Saving Private Ryan" was already assembled in the UK.

According to the arrangement of the crew, all the actors must undergo special training to wash away the pampered habits developed in Pingsuri, and become well-trained soldiers in the shortest possible time.

Due to the different styles of each army, the instructor is a former U.S. Marine Corps captain Dale Day invited from the American mainland, and the training location is naturally those battlefields that have not been classified as protected areas and used to be golden iron horses.

From the first day of training, the actors entered the film environment, calling each other by the names of their respective roles, wearing the military uniforms of the year, carrying firearms that had long been obsolete, and learning a lot of military knowledge every day.

Weapons, melee combat, individual tactics, and the code language and sign language signals of the army during World War II are all skills they need to master.

The work is so hard, and the living environment is not good.

Because Spielberg's purpose is to restore the real atmosphere of World War II as much as possible, so during the training process, they only eat canned food provided by the army during World War II, and the sleeping place is a marching tent.

And during the break, you have to deal with unexpected assessments at any time, such as-

Forty-pound men of equipment marched five miles in a hurry.

In the words of the instructor, it is that hard training is to make them think like a soldier, and if a teammate is in trouble, they must stop and help him, which makes them more emotionally close and makes it easier for them to bond with each other when the movie starts.

When these guys have experienced one of the four irons of life and carried a gun, the emotionally driven performance will be very natural.

So, what is experientialism, methodology, and expressionism...... What the teacher said in class is the evil way.

Only by mixing can the actor perform the spirit of the role in a short period of time.

Of course, when a group of big-name actors led by Tom Hanks followed former U.S. Marine Corps Captain Dale Day on the battlefield in the past, Spielberg acquiesced, anyway, the role was so small, and Roland Allen, who could not participate in training, was mixed with British GIs borrowed from the British Ministry of Defense.

As a dedicated actor, in order to make a good film, he does have to learn various military skills, but as the largest A+list, Roland asked himself, he really didn't want to participate in any military training.

If this kind of thing is poked out, the outside world may say that he is playing a big name, but he knows in his heart that he does not want to participate in military training, not because of how high his status is, but because he doesn't need to shoot, so he doesn't do it.

It's like Robert Downey Jr. flew up and down in a custom steel suit every day when he was filming "Iron Man", but after "Iron Man 3", the whole time was a motion capture suit dangling in front of the green screen.

When filming "Iron Man", Marvel was fighting against the water, and all the details wanted to be refined, but after "Iron Man 3", the layout was completed and waiting for the harvest, and where it could save trouble, it was all skipped.

Making physical armor according to Donnie's body type, although the metallic texture is overwhelming, but it will really cost a lot of money, and with a touch of CGI, they have pressed down the production cost, and Downey is also comfortable, since both sides are good, so why not?

Everyone has inertia in their hearts, isn't it good to make money by playing around, can you not work hard, who wants to be motivated?

If Spielberg asks for it, then Roland will naturally do it, just like a truck driver told him to fall in love, even if he knows that this is a pit, but as long as it is beneficial to the shooting, Roland will try it, but if the preparation of military training is not important to his role.

Then Roland really wouldn't take the initiative to ask to participate in training.

He admitted that even though he never took the initiative to ask for food, clothing, housing and transportation, he himself still likes to be comfortable.

Because of this, while others were crawling around the site of the battlefield in a harsh environment, Roland was playing with guns in the military district.

"Normally, we carry two guns."

"One gun on the waist, and the other little revolver on the leg."

"In the vast majority of cases, after the pistol on the waist is shot, pull out the revolver from the leg and just pick it directly."

"With a built-in hammer, you can hit the target."

Because of the relatively large background, these guys didn't dare to be sloppy when Roland sought guidance, not only that, but in order to make Roland easier to use, they brought all American-made weapons.

Like the M1911, which has been eliminated by the U.S. military, but still has a super high civilian market share, the Smith & Wesson 340 for military and police use, and the M4A1 that the U.S. Army is now purchasing in large quantities to replace......

Under Roland's gaze, the instructor in charge of the drill first knocked out a STANAG magazine, then directly pulled out the M1911 shooting target on his waist, and finally ended up in a crouching position, pulling out the Smith Wesson 340, and it was noon for McRae.

Because there was no hammer, the instructor simply knelt on one knee and shot with a gun in a standard position.

But even without that fan-like crazy hand speed, the Smith & Wesson 340 was still played by him with six shots in one second.

When the last two balloons seven yards away burst and burst, as the smoke cleared, the chic action of slowly getting up can be perfectly described in five words - it is so handsome!

"Coach, I want to play basketball!"

"Oh no, instructor, I want to learn this."

Roland stared at Smith & Wiesen 340, his eyes straightening.

Although the effective firing distance of seven yards was only 6.4 meters, it was impossible for a mortal to reach the accuracy of McCree.

But......

Whether the range is long or short, whether it can hit accurately, it is all a moment of the past.

Whether you are handsome or not, it is a matter of a lifetime!

Just imagine, when you face the enemy, you draw your gun and shoot at the waist, there is a chaotic sound, and the blue green smoke rises, and then you turn around, blow off the smoke cloud from the muzzle of the gun in a dashing manner, and walk away confidently, at the same time, the enemy who has not yet reacted burst out of countless blood holes, and slowly falls to the ground with a stunned face, watching you leave with a dull look -

How handsome this scene is!

Just like Dwayne Johnson in "The Jungle", Guo Da in "The Mechanic", Denzel Washington in "The Avenger", real men never look back! Not only that, if you want to be handsome, you have to go slowly!

The fire burned Uncle Wolf's hair, he was still pounding slowly, the waves of air set off by the explosion could roll up his hat, and the big was still pretending to beep and hug, and even if the handsome little brother Ma didn't hold it in "The True Color of Heroes", he was scared into an emoji in the face of the explosion, but he still didn't look back.

It can be seen that it doesn't matter whether you hit this result or not.

The important thing is what kind of posture you use to show your handsome body.

Seeing that Roland's eyes were shining, the instructor was full of promises.

"You want to learn this?"

"Yes!"

But just when Roland was about to go straight to the point, the instructor in camouflage did not hand him the gun, but said: "The order I received is to teach the whole set, so let's do it step by step." ”

"First of all, there are the four principles of gun ownership."

"First, in general, the muzzle of the gun should be pointed at a safe place. What is a safe place? A safe place is a place where you won't regret your bullet if it goes off fire, and you can afford to pay for it. ”

"Second, don't put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to shoot without aiming at the target."

"Third, always treat the gun as if it had bullets and was loaded."

"Fourth, before shooting, try to look behind the target and be careful not to injure innocent people by mistake."

"After all, none of us are Russians......"

Roland can treat guns as toys, but instructors only treat guns as their own lives.

Although it was clearly pointed out from above that these instructors only needed to teach Roland the use of firearms according to Roland's needs, they would not easily abandon the precautions for using firearms, after all, if this shot is fired, it is likely that someone will die because of it.

Even if most of the time, Roland's bodyguards can solve all problems, but there is an accident in everything......

If Roland encounters a firearm misfire because of the problem of using the process, and thus hurts others and himself, then those who are responsible for enlightenment and teaching are likely to take the blame.

Don't think it's impossible!

The Ministry of Defense official who was on leave hasn't gone to work yet!

If it were in the past, of course Roland hated this kind of boring theoretical preaching, but now, of course, he can understand the good intentions of the instructors, and for his own consideration, for the sake of the safety of the people around him, Roland did not boldly skip this link, but patiently spent two and a half days to listen to the instructor's theoretical course.

After that, of course, it was boring posture training and the assembly and disassembly of firearms.

It wasn't until the day of the end of the military training prepared by the crew that Roland began to shoot live ammunition.

That's right, it's all over there, and Roland is on the shooting range.

It's not that Roland is too slow to learn, but the military training is full of calculations, and the total is only ten days.

Ten days is too short compared to eighteen months of special forces life.

But for actors and directors, that's enough.

Although the time is not stuck, it doesn't really matter.

At this moment, Roland, who is more interested in firearms than in movies, directly said hello to Spielberg, and then left the crew and flew solo - anyway, he won't be able to shoot his scene for a while, so there is no need for him to rush into the group.

As for learning?

In terms of acting, Tom Hanks has taught everything he can teach, and without wanting to win the award, Roland has little room for improvement.

In terms of directing, when the truck driver gave him the guide tube and asked him to build it himself, he had actually calculated the teacher, he had already mastered the basic skills that should be learned, and he had already burned out the tuition fees for the actual shooting, and the next thing he could do was to take on the project by himself.

And the project he wants to shoot at the moment is actually only one-

Harry Potter.

"Oh, I'm very sorry, I've been too busy in the last two years, preparing for "Titanic" at the beginning of last year, "Spider-Man" was released last summer, and after that, I joined the team to shoot "Titanic", and it wasn't until February this year that I had time to talk about the project at hand...... If you think about it, should I have made you wait for me for more than a year? I'm so sorry......"

Roland looked apologetically. Rowling.

"No, No, No, Roland, you don't have to say that." Aunt Rowling shook her head with a smile and waved her hand: "You hired a lawyer to help me win the divorce lawsuit, and after that, you asked Cole to offer me a job as a secretary in the Dell branch in Edinburgh, so that I can have enough salary to support my daughter and have free time to create......"

"I'm very satisfied with my current life, so I've not been in a hurry to publish the book, before Cole said to me, you don't have time to come, just let me continue to write, so that when you come, I can also give you a surprise, so, I actually brought nearly 500,000 words today, the first part, I named it "Philosopher's Stone", and the second part, I named it "Secret Room".

Now that I've come to England, it's time to fill in the hole that I once dug here.

In fact, as early as February last year, due to the appearance of Roland, the trajectory of life changed. Rowling had already completed the creation of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", but unfortunately Roland and Kate were tired of being together at that time, and the mobile phone was directly lost to the truck driver, so Cole Nedham, who was temporarily in charge of British affairs, did not come to bother him.

Life is secured. Rowling didn't care about these things, Roland was busy, so she would wait.

To put it mildly, after having a stable job and a good life, her purpose of writing has actually changed.

Unlike Roland's previous life, whether or not Harry Potter can make money is important for . As far as Rowling is concerned, it doesn't matter at all, now she just wants to repay Roland for helping her back then, since Roland and the three Olsen sisters are interested in the story she wrote, then she will continue to write, as long as they are happy after reading it, that is enough.

And how could Roland be unhappy when he saw the manuscripts of "The Philosopher's Stone" and "The Chamber of Secrets"?

Harvest two at once?

What a surprise this special code!

Although he vaguely remembered that in his previous life, "The Philosopher's Stone" seemed to have been released in June of '97, and now, the book has not been taken back for proofreading, and there is no ISBN for international publishing, but it doesn't matter, right?

Submit these two books to Lucas and you'll be able to get them all done in minutes!

As for the publicity involved in Harry Potter's past life?

This one is even simpler!

Let that childlike Spielberg come out and endorse it!

Help other strangers stand on the platform, the old man may not be willing, but Roland......

If you don't even read the book, you can sign your name directly in the preface of the ghostwriter!

And after Roland finished reading the table of contents of "The Philosopher's Stone" and "The Chamber of Secrets" with a smile, and confirmed that the content outline was not much different from the books he had seen in his previous life, he dialed the phone number of Cole Niedhan and asked him to take the company's legal counsel, according to the habit of literary works in the industry, and . Rowling signed a contract to publish on her behalf.

Not only that, but the adaptation rights related to "Harry Potter" were also won by Roland, and the price he offered shocked the single mother, "A million copies? The price is simply exaggerated. ”

"I actually checked the information before I came, and the film and television copyright of "Jurassic Park" seems to be only two million?"

"Oh, don't get me wrong, a million copies is the series buyout price."

"After you sign the contract, I can buy the rights to film and television adaptations of Harry Potter-related works at this price."

"Not only that, but you also have the right to take a cut of the box office of the movie, 0.5 percent of the net global box office revenue."

Roland is not a capitalist either.

He will still give the copyright fee that should be given.

As for 0.5 percent of the net global box office receipts?

If he remembers correctly, in his previous life, didn't Warner do this?

But people are kind-hearted and didn't let it. Rowling loses money because of negative profits.

Roland......

Since. Rowling trusts him so much, naturally he can't do anything that is negative hundreds of millions of profits, right?

Negative tens of millions, that's it.

When Roland sent away the two million dollars, he was very excited. Rowling, as soon as she turned her head, saw Kate on the sofa, looking through the food she bought, and before he could speak, Kate had already asked in a puzzled tone: "Is there any need to buy this kind of children's book?" ”

"Can a story for children still be put on the screen?"

"Two million to buy the rights to adapt and shoot two books, it seems that you are full of confidence in this story, but in fact, you are worried that it will not sell at all if it is published, right? So use other means to compensate her? ”

“Wow？ Why do you think that? Roland blinked his curious eyes and asked with a smile: "Is it true that my image is so tall in your heart?" Do you think I'm going to be the kind of person who does good? ”

"I don't think you'll do good deeds, it's mainly because what you just said made me wonder." Kate glanced at this guy who felt good about herself, and said, "You just said that you have been very busy in the past two years and have no time to pay attention to her, which proves that you have not read what she wrote at all, and you just bought the copyright based on your previous impressions." ”

"Since you haven't seen it, and you're generous, it's not doing a good deed, what is it?"

"Is it possible, do you like her type?"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

"Do good, do good ......"

Roland hurriedly stopped Kate's desire to continue.

Let her continue to beep, maybe in a few minutes, he will become a pervert!

He likes it. Rowling?

Hold the grass!

How did you come up with such a bizarre idea?

"The business is over, let's talk about your family, okay?"

"It's been a week, why don't you give me a thorough explanation?"

When "Saving Private Ryan" was decided to be filmed in the UK, Roland knew that he couldn't hide from certain things, and now, without having to shoot with the crew, he has learned the correct use of firearms and shooting methods, and then he only needs to use a lot of bullets to feed the accuracy, and finalize the copyright of "Harry Potter", if Kate can let him go, then there will be a ghost.

Seeing that Roland turned filming into a vacation, Kate hinted to him that instead of wandering around, it was better to do something serious, and Roland also replied very kindly, when to go to your house, you decide.

Although it was a bit blunt to use the topic of 'go to your house' to divert her embarrassment at this time, Kate liked Roland's choice, and after putting the two handwritten books on the coffee table, Kate also dragged Roland down.

"My mom and dad don't have any special hobbies, and it's easy to prepare gifts, just go to the store and buy some casually."

"Just buy some? Are you trying to harm me? Hearing such perfunctory words, Roland was immediately reluctant, "You asked me what Garneti and David like before, but I told you directly!" ”

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm not going to ...... with you"

The more impatient Roland behaved in this kind of thing, the happier Kate became.

It's a pity that her appeasement was not recognized by Roland, and after feeling that the eyes of inquiry and recourse would not change for a while, she pouted with a smile and dimples, and said: "Okay, instead of preparing gifts, you should talk to my mother more about Shakespeare, she likes this thing, but I can say okay first, you can't pretend to understand, she won't pass your childish judgment like me......"

Talking about Shakespeare?

Hey, is this another literary old woman?

Roland nodded helplessly.

"My dad, although he acts in Shakespeare's plays, he actually prefers TV series such as "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister", you have seen all of them, so I don't think it is difficult for you to communicate with him......"

"Oh yes, he also likes an unpopular drama called 'House of Cards'."

"If you're okay these days, you can make up for it......"

Oh, it turns out that Kate's dad is an official fan!

"Yes, Chancellor", "Yes, Prime Minister" These TV series have no pressure on Roland at all, and "House of Cards", he has watched it twice, and Kevin Spacey plays President Kinoshita, which is a handsome beep......

Belch......

Wrong!

Kevin Spacey's role as President Kinoshita?

I rub! Kevin Spacey hasn't filmed "American Beauty" yet!

Where did he act in "House of Cards"?

Roland, who felt that something was wrong, frowned and asked suspiciously, "House of Cards?" ”

"What 'House of Cards'?"

"Oh, you really haven't seen it, it's a miniseries produced by the BBC......"

Roland's words did not exceed Kate's expectations, "The miniseries produced in the 90s, written by Andrew Davis, if you don't know him, Anthony Hopkins you always know, right?" He acted in "Two Strange People", many of which are episodes, which are scripts written by Andrew......"
