Chapter 137: Street cameos
As the race progressed, Jian Mingyue also followed around the world, touring everywhere in addition to the competition, looking for delicious and fun everywhere she went, and then took photos and posted them on Weibo, so that people who don't know still think that she was traveling, not racing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As the event went around the world, it was Los Angeles, USA. Los Angeles is one of the most important cities in the United States, most famous for its Hollywood. The world of China is not inferior to the United States in terms of entertainment, but Hollywood is still one of the most famous film and television locations in the world, and countless people visit every year in search of opportunities to become famous.
Jian Mingyue didn't have the idea of looking for opportunities here, but in the previous life, Huaguo rose too late, and in many ways it was incomparable with the United States, and Hollywood did not meet opponents, and it has always been the only holy place in the minds of fans all over the world. Therefore, Jian Mingyue was inevitably a little curious, wanting to see what it was like here.
But she didn't want to look for a chance, but the opportunity came to her on its own initiative. She, Liang Weihan, and Bao Fengjiao were strolling around the street, and suddenly found that someone was blocking the road in front of them, and a camera was set up on the side of the street. Out of curiosity, Jian Mingyue and others also came outside the blockade line to see how the Americans made films. As a result, a man in a suit who was talking to the director inadvertently turned around, and happened to see Jian Mingyue, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said something to the director, and the director also turned around to look at Jian Mingyue.
Liang Weihan found the eyes of the director and the man, and said with a smile: "They won't recognize you anymore and want you to make a cameo in the film, right?" ”
Before he finished speaking, the man in the suit walked over, stretched out his hand and said in English, "Hello, you are Miss Huangfu Yurong, right?" My name is Mike? Smith. ”
Jian Mingyue stretched out her hand and shook his hand, and also said in proficient English: "I am Huangfu Yurong, I didn't expect that I would be recognized in the United States, and I could be called by name accurately, should I say that I am very honored?" ”
Mike smiled and said: "Miss Huangfu doesn't know your popularity in the United States, our United States is a country on the wheels of cars, and our love for racing is even more unimaginable than other countries." So, you, the beautiful racer who has won so many races in a row, are the idol of almost all American youth. I'm not young anymore, but I still love racing, so I recognize you at a glance. ”
Los Angeles is Jian Mingyue's first stop in the United States, and I really don't know how popular I am in the United States. But after so long on the street, Mike was the first to recognize her, which shows that his words are still mostly touted. But even if she knew that Mike was touting herself, Jian Mingyue would not expose it stupidly, but just smiled indifferently: "Really? I'm glad so many people like me. Mr. Smith, let's be straight, you didn't come to me for an autograph, what the hell is the matter with you? ”
Mike shrugged and said, "Okay, then I'll get straight to the point." As you can see, we're filming, and I'm the producer of this film. Now we need some extras, I wonder if you're interested in making a cameo and trying to try what it's like to be an actor? ”
Jian Mingyue smiled and said nothing, just glanced at Liang Weihan. Liang Weihan smiled and said, "I'm sorry Mr. Smith, it seems that you don't know enough about Miss Huangfu. Miss Huangfu is not only a racing driver, but also an actress. One of her big productions will be released soon, and you will be able to see her heroically on screen when the time comes. If you want her to make a cameo in your film, you can talk to me, I'm her agent. ”
Mike's face froze, he thought Jian Mingyue was a simple race car driver, and he wanted to use acting as a bait to invite her to make a cameo, and he could add a publicity stunt to his film with very little money or no money. Who knew that Jian Mingyue not only acted, but also had a special agent, which completely shattered his wishful thinking. began to think in my heart, in order to add a gimmick, is it worth it to ask Jian Mingyue to participate?
With Liang Weihan in charge of the negotiations, Jian Mingyue continued to watch the Americans filming leisurely, and chatted with Bao Fengjiao at the same time: "Alas, I remember that you have a master's degree in law, aren't you very slippery about studying law?" Why is it not you who is my agent, but Liang Weihan? ”
Bao Fengjiao said helplessly: "Who said that studying law is just a slippery mouth? Even if it's very slippery, there is no one who specializes in playing with tongues. You don't know, our Butler Liang was the first debater in the debate team in the university back then. Later, he also used the negotiators of a large company to fight with people at the negotiation table for several months, and a lot of information came out of the other party's mouth. ”
Jian Mingyue said "hoof" and said, "I don't see it, he still has this ability?" With such an eloquent talent, why don't you see him arguing with others when he usually speaks? ”
Bao Fengjiao said: "This is about his nature, he has always liked to hide clumsy, and never show his hole cards when he is not necessary." Therefore, no one who knows a little about him dares to underestimate him, and no one knows how many hole cards he still has. ”
After the two women chatted for a few words, Liang Weihan negotiated with Mike, and then walked to Jian Mingyue's side and said, "A cameo appearance in a ten-second scene will cost you $50,000." If it goes well, it can be done in ten minutes at most, and it will not delay our shopping. ”
Jian Mingyue asked, "What kind of film did they make?" Have you read the script? If there's something inappropriate, I can't play it. ”
Liang Weihan said: "Don't worry, I've already told Mike about this problem, he will take the script in a while, if there is a problem, we won't sign the contract." Mike is an old producer and knows what can and can't be done, after all, we are not without background. ”
Jian Mingyue and they waited in an ice cream shop across the street for a long time, and Mike hurried in with the script and the contract. After reading the script, I didn't find anything sensitive in it, but it was just a story of the protagonist being framed, and then the Jedi fought back, and finally took revenge. The story is old-fashioned, but Americans eat this one, so they can always change the bottle and take it out and still sell well.
After signing the contract, Jian Mingyue followed Mike to the director. The director is a chubby old man with a big beard, this guy doesn't know why, his attitude is very cold, and when he saw Jian Mingyue, he just nodded, and asked the assistant director to tell her about the drama and prepare to start filming.
Jian Mingyue's role is very simple, that is, walking on the street and being caught as a hostage by robbers, and after being rescued by the protagonist, she gratefully says thank you.
After understanding, Jian Mingyue was ready to start filming. The director shouted "action!" Jian Mingyue walked forward calmly, and then the actor who played the robber caught up from behind, strangled her neck with one hand, and put a gun to her head with the other, confronting the protagonist who followed him.
The identity of the protagonist is a police officer, of course, the safety of the hostages is the priority, and he talks to the robbers carefully, trying to use words to make the robbers not too nervous, so as not to hurt the hostages. was originally a good act, and Jian Mingyue's performance also made the director very satisfied, the kind of panic and fear of a weak woman being kidnapped by bad guys, and the expression of not daring to cry when she was obviously scared was vivid, and this acting skill was enough to be the protagonist.
Unexpectedly, Jian Mingyue's face suddenly changed the next moment, and when she raised her leg, she was kicking a high kick, and her toes were kicking the gun-wielding hand of the robber behind him, and the pistol suddenly smashed on the robber's nose, smashing his head back and causing his nose to bleed wildly. This is not the end, Jian Mingyue grabbed the arm he held in front of him and twisted it hard, he couldn't stand the pain and could only bend over and lean over along this force, Jian Mingyue kicked him in front of him again, and kicked him unconscious.
This change stunned everyone, and the director hurriedly shouted "cut!" Mike also hurriedly ran up and asked, "Miss Huangfu, what's the matter?" ”
Jian Mingyue said with a calm face: "I don't know what is dead or alive, dare to do something to me, and I will cheapen him without interrupting his dirty hands!" ”
Mike was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to the monitor to watch the playback, and sure enough, he saw that when the actor who played the robber was acting, his hand actually slid down to Jian Mingyue's chest, no wonder Jian Mingyue turned his face. This guy is stupid enough to dare to play this game while filming, don't you know that his behavior will be filmed? If Jian Mingyue didn't beat him, but took him to court, it would make him even worse, and he would pay a lot of compensation if he didn't go to jail.
Mike immediately made a decision and said, "Come a few people, take him to the hospital, and when he wakes up, tell him that he has been fired!" In addition, find a new actor, and all the scenes of the robbers are reshot. ”
Jian Mingyue looked at him pointing fingers, not taking the director in his eyes at all, and understood why the director was so cold to her just now. Looking at the director again, I found that he couldn't take care of Mike at this time, and was sitting in front of the monitor with bright eyes watching the replay repeatedly, waiting for Mike's fingering to come to an end, before beckoning him over, the two pointed to the monitor and discussed, and came to Jian Mingyue with excitement and said: "Miss Huangfu, the director suddenly had an inspiration just now, and wants to add some to your play, what do you think?" ”
Jian Mingyue said: "You don't want me to subdue the robbers in place of the protagonist like just now, do you?" ”
Mike snapped his fingers and said, "That's right! Miss Huangfu thought of going with us! What the director meant by asking you to help the protagonist catch the robbers, and then befriend the protagonist and teach him Chinese kung fu, so that this action movie can add a little kung fu element, what do you think? ”
Jian Mingyue frowned and said, "How long will it take to complete that in that case?" You know, I'm out there and I'm going to get ready for the race tomorrow. ”
Mike hurriedly said: "Don't worry, just add a few shots, with your and the protagonist's acting skills, these shots can be shot very easily, and it won't delay you too much." Of course, I will also increase the salary, what do you think of 100,000? ”
Jian Mingyue thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, I agree to add drama." On the issue of salary, you still have to discuss with my agent. ”
