Chapter 231: A busy old man, a dashing Xiao Li, and an obedient Roland

Spielberg was actually quite busy.

If it weren't for the fact that Roland was his student and the upcoming project was related to it, the old man really wouldn't have had the time to sit down and chat with other people, let alone hold his breath and eat a mouthful of dog food.

From September 5, 96 to December 11, 96, the old man spent more than 90 days to finish "Jurassic Park 2", and then returned to ILM, spending more than two months keeping an eye on editing and post-production.

Finally sat down to catch his breath, and Roland crackled at him again.

Although the project of "Saving Private Ryan" was finalized, it also annoyed him enough.

And not long after he threw the project to Roland and kicked the annoying spirit out of the house, on February 18, 97, the old man left Los Angeles again to shoot a story about the pursuit of freedom by blacks in the early days of the American Civil War-

"Broken Lock Fury".

Well, this translation actually sucks.

When Roland saw this translation, he thought it was a movie about naval warfare, but when he clicked on it, he realized that the whole movie was about the famous case of 'Amistad' in the history of American slavery.

Because this history is very complicated, when he was watching it, Roland did not understand it.

After Roland read Cao Guilin's "Beijingers in New York", Zhou Li's "Chinese Women in Manhattan", Chen Yanni's "Tell You a Real America", Qian Ning's "Study in the United States", and Linda's "A Close Look at America" series.

Only then did he realize that Spielberg's film was not about the legal system of freedom and liberation at all.

Rather, it is the spiritual worship of the superior system of America.

To put it nicely, it is called blood and struggle to promote every progress in the rule of law society, and to put it mildly, you can paraphrase Clint Eastwood's sentence in "American Sniper" -

The United States is the most bullish country on the planet. ’

Hollywood, as a propaganda outlet for cultural communication, produces this kind of movie, which is really normal.

However, normal is normal, but Roland just doesn't like it.

Why?

The two British dramas "Yes, Minister" and "Yes, Prime Minister" have explained everything.

Isn't the so-called superior system the superior system seen by those who want the people to feel that the system is superior?

And the basis of the existence of spiritual worship is not a superior system at all, but fists and broadcasts......

Therefore, even if he learned the filming time of the other party, Roland had no intention of observing.

is like Director Zhang Wenhong said: 'Don't think I'm too great, I also like to watch dramas that don't cost me a lot of brains. ’

It's so boring to have a movie with propaganda in your head!

…………

At the same time that Spielberg left in a hurry, news also came out from Berlin.

The 47th Berlin International Film Festival came to an end on February 24, 97, and at the awards ceremony, actor Leonardo DiCaprio from America won the best actor and won the silver bear with "Romeo and Juliet".

As the first important award in Xiao Lizi's life, this silver bear means a lot to him.

Rivan Phoenix won the Venice Best Actor at the age of 21, and he won the Silver Bear at the age of 23.

Although he is two years older than the other in age, it doesn't matter because he is still alive.

As long as you live, there is hope for transcendence.

After returning, the high-spirited young man also held a celebration party.

As his 'big brother', Roland naturally received an invitation.

Although Roland was not interested in this kind of tobacco and alcohol party, he still showed up on time when he was idle and bored.

But when he saw the warbler Yanyan who was surrounding Xiao Lizi, an accident arose.

Even if Roland didn't know any of the female companions beside Xiao Lizi, he could still see the white flowers.

The point is, all girls, they are all long-legged......

After wearing high heels, the tense ones are as straight as chopsticks!

The writhing posture that followed the sound of clattering footsteps made Roland gasp......

Sizzle......

Looking at the figure of hugging left and right, holding a wine glass and celebrating wantonly, Roland with his hands in his pockets, sighed with emotion!

Man, how can you float like this?

Didn't you just win a Berlin actor? It's like becoming the youngest Oscar winner in history!

You see how low-key I am, that is, I am ready to unite the Big Six, rush an Oscar actress for my own woman, buy 10% of Apple's equity, just for Pixar to produce more good movies, go to Blizzard Entertainment to play games when I have nothing to do, talk and laugh with those Forbes bigwigs on Wall Street who eat people and don't spit out bones, and by the way, use Yahoo and IMDb to manipulate fan feedback or something......

I've been an A+list for so many years and haven't floated, how can you be like this B-list?

Just when Roland sighed secretly and looked at the little plum with eyes that hated iron and steel, he found his little plum, but he took the initiative to come over with a wine glass, toast Roland, and by the way, took out a cigar and cut it, and wanted to light it for Roland.

In the face of Na Lisuo's extremely filial piety action, Roland, who was still criticizing Xiao Lizi's extremely corrupt style of life, laughed, but as soon as his hand was halfway through to receive cigarettes and wine, he suddenly took it back when he thought of something.

Acting like this, Xiao Lizi was puzzled, "What's wrong?" Afraid of being photographed by the media? ”

"Don't worry, there is no media ...... today"

"No, no, no......" Roland shook his head again and again, looked at the cigarettes and alcohol with reluctant eyes, and denied: "I just don't like it." ”

"You don't like it?" Countless little question marks popped up on Xiao Lizi's head, and he muttered to himself in his heart: 'At the celebration banquet of "Spider-Man" before, didn't you drink happily and smoke brightly? How...... Don't like it anymore? ’

After thinking about it for a few seconds, his head turned around, as if he remembered something.

After looking around and not finding a familiar figure, he asked, "She didn't come?" ”

"Didn't come." Roland knew who Little Plum was talking about.

"She went back to the UK to deal with some things, and I will leave at 11 o'clock tonight to pick her up at the airport."

"Ah...... Then don't smoke it, don't drink it......"

Xiao Lizi, who understood it, happily put the things back, but in the next second, he raised his hand to wrap his hand around Roland's shoulder, pointed to the demons dancing in the center of the venue, and said, "Do you like these girls tonight, from Ford and IMG?" ”

"It's only eight o'clock, and it's still early."

Looking at the young girls who were dressed coolly and with delicate makeup, Roland put his hands in his pockets and coughed.

"I'm not like you, I don't like models."

What?

What does this have to do with models? Aren't these guys all beauties?

Xiao Lizi raised her eyebrows, glanced at Roland with surprised eyes, and then said cautiously: "I hugged you." ”

"What remains of you is the smell of my perfume."

How could Roland not understand such words? But after shaving the beauties twice, he touched his old waist and said righteously: "Leo, don't say it, I really don't like ......"

"Well, if you say that, then I really can't help it......"

You're boring!

Xiao Lizi sighed, he felt that he might not be able to play with the current Roland.

I think back then, when filming "Spider-Man", Roland could still squat on the street with him to watch the girls!

What now?

What do you do all the time touching your waist?

Could it be that you want to endorse Lu Hua?

'Luhua, 5S pressed first-grade peanut oil! ’

Is there really not a drop left?

Tut-tut......

Since Roland doesn't play, Xiao Lizi didn't accompany him the whole time.

After saying hello, he turned around and threw himself into the rouge pile again.

Looking at the chic figure that passed among the thousands of flowers and did not touch the leaves, Roland, who had just been dissolved for a while, secretly dissed in his heart again.

β€˜He…… tui……’

'Let's play! Let's play! Be careful not to get caught in the long legs! ’

'Special, don't these women have any eyesight? He's not as handsome as I am! ’

This is really saying Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

While Roland was muttering in boredom, several blonde girls in small dresses leaned in.

In Roland's surprised eyes, all of them smiled politely.

"Oh~Roland~ I didn't expect to meet you here~"

"Leo said before that you would attend his celebration tonight, we thought it was a lie~"

"Roland~I'm your fan~ Can you sign me?"

As they spoke, the group of guys in close-fitting tuxedos didn't know where to find the markers.

And at the same time as the pen was handed over, the only place where I could sign it also survived.

This situation made Roland stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth hooked.

'Huh! ’

'That's the rhythm right! ’

'Lao Tzu is handsome and rich, and his fame is bigger than Xiao Lizi's, and the point is that he still has twenty-eight abdominal muscles! ’

'How could no one come up and talk to you!' ’

Seeing that there was a girl to hook up, Roland was happy again, and even when he looked at Xiao Lizi, he felt that the other party was much more pleasing to the eye.

Perhaps this is the real reason why Harvey Weinstein is obsessed with Vanity Fair?

It's not how beautiful those women are, nor how great their bodies really are, but the pleading and longing in the eyes of those guys when they look at you, maybe they will be mixed with unwillingness, but it is these complex emotions that men will feel cool!

While his heart was satisfied, Roland also chatted.

sent away stubble after stubble, and it was like the emperor's draft, but I didn't look at any of them anyway.

He is not the successor of the forty thieves, of course, he knows that these guys are here for their money and fame.

Just meet and talk about a few words, as for deep friendship?

Come on......

Deep friendship is cool for a while, pregnant crematorium, black cats are hot searches, and penguins laugh haha.

That night, when he came out of the party and drove to the airport, Roland looked at the boring street scene and his heart was full of emotion.

Without "Titanic", Xiao Lizi can still be extremely chic, although there may not be record-breaking arrogance, but the surprise of surpassing his predecessors still exists, the point is that after not having the pressure brought by his handsome face, he is now living extremely easy.

It's time to eat, it's time to drink, it's time to play, it's time to sleep......

I'm not an idol anyway!

The pressure is all on Roland!

And Roland ......

Arrived at the airport at twelve o'clock, and waited until one o'clock, because he was too sleepy, and there was no mobile phone to play, so he sat on the sofa in the VIP area and fell asleep.

"You're back? How did I fall asleep? Roland, whose head was restarting, looked confused.

"Going to Leo's party?" Kate didn't answer Roland's inquiry, but blew her nose.

"Hmm...... I went after seven o'clock, and I came out after eleven o'clock......"

Before Roland could finish speaking, Kate gagged him, stirring around and getting up again, a happy smile clinging to her face.

"Not bad, I didn't drink or smoke, I behaved well, let's go, go home......"

…………

Shortly after Spielberg left Los Angeles, Kate returned to China to deal with the problem of borrowing.

Asking the British Ministry of Defense to borrow 2,000 British soldiers for filming, this kind of thing may be a bit troublesome for Hollywood, but for the guy who can invite Prince Philip, there will definitely be no problems with the procedure.

As for the contradictions that existed between the two sides before?

We can't solve the contradictions, but we can solve the people who create them!

Who rejected Spielberg's request in the first place? So much so that Prince Philip came to ask such a trivial matter?

Whoever handles it, who takes a vacation!

As for the deadline?

When you think about it, come back to work!

Why did Spielberg ask us to borrow people and film in the UK?

Don't you just want to restore the Normandy landings?

The Normandy landings, the greatest landing battles of World War II!

The Allied forces won a great victory, successfully opened up the second battlefield in Europe, and the victory of the British and American armies brought about a fundamental change in the strategic situation of World War II.

Comrade, your ideological consciousness is not high enough!

When Kate told Roland about the British Ministry of Defense's handling of this opinion, Roland was speechless, "Isn't "Saving Private Ryan" about how heroic the British and American armies are? The guy who was on vacation died unjustly. ”

But Kate didn't see it that way, "But who let Prince Philip come forward this time?" ”

"If you don't find a reason, the face of the Ministry of Defense is not good-looking."

"So that guy was dismissed?"

"No, I heard them say that after the limelight is over, you can go back to work, but the time may be a little long, at least you have to wait for the feedback from the release of "Saving Private Ryan" before you can talk about ending your vacation and going back to work."

'Waiting for feedback on the release of "Saving Private Ryan"? ’

'That's a long time......

Roland mourned for a few seconds in his heart for the guy who rejected Spielberg, although he felt that he had died a little unjustly, but there was no way, this was originally a world of the jungle.

Prince Philip does not have real power, but in this life, he has that hobby.

Playing golf, riding horses, and going to see Shakespeare plays when I have nothing to do.

People have liked Shakespeare all their lives, and they once performed on the same stage with Kenneth at the 'instigation'.

The royal family went on stage to act, and this kind of damaging image pot was carried by Kenneth for a lifetime! Now that his niece's boyfriend is borrowing someone for filming, does the British Ministry of Defense, which knows the relationship between the two parties, dare to say no?

Can't.

Or, if they knew that Spielberg would be able to get through this relationship, they had already borrowed someone when they saw the project!

It's a pity that I refused it at the beginning, and now I have to borrow it.

So what to do?

Throw the pot and lend it!

Whoever made the decision at the beginning will now consider himself unlucky!

We also want to protect you, but in order to cover up the things in the royal family, it can only work hard for you.

Now that the matter has been done, Roland called Spielberg, and after seeing the faxed authorization document, the satisfied old man thanked Roland with his own practical actions.

"I won't say the rest."

"Didn't you say Kate was okay lately? Then let her be an executive producer. ”

"It's also convenient to get in and out of the crew like this."

'Yes, yes, it's convenient for her, and it's convenient for you. ’

How could Roland not know that the old man was disgusted with himself?

When I was filming with Roland before, there was no time when I didn't postpone it.

Although Roland is asking questions a lot of the time, but a question is asked a hundred and eighty times, and it is almost asked, the old man really has no energy to deal with it, he just wants to get off work on time, but Roland has never let him get off work on time.

Now...... He felt that after someone took care of Roland, he should be able to call his wife and children on time.

In the future, no one will shout into the other end of the phone while he is eating-

'I'll borrow it from your father!' A few questions I'd like to ask! I'll leave when I'm done! ’
