Chapter Forty-Six: Sorry, Habit!
"Are you talking about me?"
The sudden change of wind made Leo can't help but point to himself, the expression on his face is enough to be called wonderful, subconsciously looked around, and found that he was alone except for the staff, and the nearest audience was also a few meters away, so he realized that he had inadvertently entered the set in order to watch the excitement
"No, I'm ......"
Before the words of explanation could be spoken, the director with thick lenses had already impatiently grabbed his arm directly
"Rest assured, a few very simple actions, almost no lines and no face, no matter which department you are in, you will not be at fault for this
"God, your arms are hard as stone, and perhaps the best job for you would be to please those ladies on the WWE stage......"
Of course, the director's last sentence was muttered in a very low voice, plus Leo was a little confused and distracted at this time, otherwise......
It is undeniable that Leo himself is not averse to acting, otherwise he would not be able to pull his body with the director's strength, so he came to the center of the venue half-pushed, and looked at the familiar face of the starring actor in front of him a little stunned, as if he felt that God felt that his life was too monotonous and he had to give a surprise
"Hello...... Well, Mr. Pete, it's a pleasure to see you, uh, can you believe me if I say it was an accident? β
"Hey man, you look so much better than that Latina bastard, unexpected? Oh yes, damn we're all the same, there are always accidents happening every day, aren't they! β
Without the sense of distance on the big screen, Pete seemed to be relatively easy to speak, and after carefully looking at Leo while speaking, he nodded to the director imperceptibly
"Alright, alright, boys, get moving, you know, we're paying those officers by the hour, damn vampires...... The lights are readjusted, and a few people clean up the grounds, and tell the animal protection bastards that standing for half an hour won't hurt those cute foals, props! props, bring this...... Hey! Boy, what's your name? β
Under the director's loud greeting, the shooting scene, which had been silent for a while, was running at high speed like a gear again, and hearing the shouting in his ear, Leo subconsciously plucked out his ears
"Leo, Leo Chang!"
βJIANG? WHATEVER, IT'S WEIRD TO HAVE AN ORIENTAL SURNAME, OKAY, LEO FOLLOWED LANCE, THE BEARDED CHUBBY GUY TO THE TRAILER AND CHANGE INTO YOUR OWN COSTUME, HEY, SPEED UP, TIME IS ALWAYS RUNNING OUT IN OUR COUNTRY! β
Just when Leo was pulled into the prop trailer to change his clothes, Josiah, who was holding two bags of fast food in his hand and biting a straw in his mouth, squeezed into the crowd, couldn't see his employer left and right, and directly patted the shoulder of a fat black man in front of him and asked
"Hey bro, do you see a white man with black hair? I remember he was right here! β
"If you're talking about that little white face with black hair and black eyes, yes I've seen it, that lucky bastard was spotted by the director and was preparing to play with Pete......"

********************
Someone said that more than half of the credit for Hollywood's success lies in the costume props, this sentence is really deep for Leo now, I don't know what metal made of medieval style full body armor, from the appearance of it looks extremely heavy, but the weight is almost not felt, every detail and even the coat of arms that should be processed is very exquisite and appropriate, holding the hand armor lined with non-slip cowhide, the familiar wear makes Leo rekindle his passion to forget again
With his hand on the hilt of the sword inlaid with an artificial ruby on his waist, Leo strode out of the temporary props room first, the distance was the same, and his natural body was straight, so that even the most critical person could not say anything wrong, and the bearded prop master looked at the surprised director with emotion and whispered
"Frank, I have to say that you are such a lucky fellow, our armor is made for him, and the moment he put it on, I was almost dazzled to think that I really saw a legendary knight!"
Pushing away the chattering prop master, the director walked up to Leo with his eyes lit up and hammered the opponent's smooth breastplate
"Praise God, I swear if your acting skills weren't particularly bad, you'd drive those women crazy with just that, and thanks to the guy who created the denim suits, he made the difference in temperament between us humans less obvious...... Hey! Tell me if there's anything else uncomfortable with the kid, okay, if not, I'll let the action director teach you a few basic swing moves! What the? You can? Am I being favored by God today? Draw out your sword knight and let me see your strength! β
Facing the director who seemed to be a curious child who was too excited, Leo smiled bitterly, his arm didn't move much at all, just relying on the rotation and contraction of his wrist, the long sword on his waist was instantly unsheathed, and after a little look, he understood that what he was holding was just a look good, well, a beautiful look good......
Chopping, chipping, stabbing, latticing, a few knightly basic skills that are familiar to the bone marrow have brought out an alternative beauty in Leo's hands, a cruel beauty that cannot hide the killing atmosphere
"Oh! Oh, oh! Beautiful moves, okay, take it back, boy, you're qualified, now let me tell you about your role below......"
Seeing that the director was about to talk about the play, Leo hesitated for a moment and still opened his mouth to suggest
"Armor aside, guide ...... Director, this sword would certainly not be worn by a qualified knight in battle, and its weight, center of gravity, and length are not suitable for swinging on horseback for a long time, in comparison, perhaps the most suitable place for it should be a heavy two-handed swordsman......"
Stunned, the director spoke quickly
"Obey my knight, but you have to know that we're just making a movie, and the audience loves all the big and strong guys, hehe! Pretty and powerful, those people will go crazy about it, they won't and don't have to think about what they need on the battlefield, okay, okay, we've wasted enough time, now you listen to me......"
Leo's role is very simple, which is normal, after all, he is just a guy who was caught and saved because a temporary or contracted actor did not arrive, this scene is about the protagonist retreating for his partners and the army, alone in front of a powerful enemy, and being rescued by the heroine after being hit hard, the plot of standard American personal heroism plus the beauty effect, simple and funny, but no way, people like these now......
"Remember, Leo, it seems that you have a certain fencing foundation, according to the design of our action guide, here, here, and here, you and Pete continue to fight, and after arriving at the last location, he was seriously injured by your sword under the effect of physical strength and injury, of course this is fake, you need a few moves, and the rest will be done later! And then it's all done, it's easy, isn't it, just relax man, when those lights and cameras are completely non-existent! β
The director, who is still a little worried, keeps babbling and explaining, he understands that many seemingly calm and calm laymen will have a lot of extra emotions and inexplicable fear and nervousness under the focus of the lighting and camera
Nodding silently, Leo took a few deep breaths to adjust his mentality, although these in front of him were a little unfamiliar to him, but compared to the battlefield where the stumps and broken arms were bleeding, this place was like a paradise for children to play!
After everything was ready, the director slightly controlled the time for the actor to adjust his mood and enter the state, because he insisted on refusing to use a stand-in, Pete personally stood opposite Leo in this scene, quietly pulled down his armor, his eyes suddenly darkened and then brightened again, bowed slightly to adjust his posture, Leo has entered the combat state......
Not knowing the infection of the familiar scene on the crowd coming down from the battlefield, Pete, who was opposite him, slowly pulled down his armor and took the lead in drawing his long sword, while several makeup artists and props were seizing the last time to check the deliberately made scars and blood stains on his body
"Lights?"
"The lights are in place!"
"Videography?"
"Unit 1 is in place"
"Unit 2 is in place"
"Track Follow-up in Place"
"Drama?"
"The site is cleared"
βOKοΌ3β¦β¦ 2β¦β¦ 1, Act VII, Group 42 Begins ......"
As the director's voice fell, all the noisy background sounds in the venue stopped, and even the crowd of onlookers spontaneously stopped their mobile phones and other filming equipment that could affect the filming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
As a famous Hollywood movie star, Pete's acting skills are absolutely professional, at the beginning of the moment he entered the state, wearing a full body armor he rolled a few times in embarrassment, after his back against a pillar that was to be processed into a big tree in the later stage, it was difficult to stand up tenaciously with a sword, and the trembling of his whole body made people fully feel that he was desperately gasping......
"Come, you blasphemer, come on, devil, wealth, power, position, your betrayal in exchange for these? Hehe! cough cough cough ...... However, you have forgotten the honor of swearing to be a knight, and after death you can only struggle desperately in eternal darkness, ahem......"
Like a real villain, Leo slowly took a few steps forward with his hand on the scabbard, and the heavy pace made his body and body look a little ironic, and the silver armor was a little hideous, and the cold voice was like coming from Jiuyou
"Justice? Honor? It seems to me that only death awaits the loser! β
I don't know why, Leo's mind suddenly remembered those dark knights, remembered Finn, Keith, Anthony and all his friends and partners~ Nice has passed half a year, and I don't know how they have lost themselves these times, and Leo, who was a little tyrannical in his heart, suddenly roared out a line that he didn't have
"There is no mercy for the weak in this world at all, go and die!"
The moment the words fell, the knight's standard sliding step made his figure close in a few moments, like a snowy lightning flashing on the ground, and at the moment when it was difficult to see with the naked eye, the heavy prop long sword that he jokingly called unsuitable for knights was already unsheathed and slashed off on the head......
"Damn it!"
The speed that he didn't expect at all made Pete's brain go blank, but fortunately, Leo's pre-set action made his body react instinctively, and he couldn't pretend to be tired anymore, and held the long hilt of the sword with both hands and blocked it flat
"Boom!"
In the crisp sound of metal intersecting, two well-made longswords that could be used as collectibles coincidentally shattered a few small pieces under the tremendous power of Leo, and Pete, whose hands were numb, could no longer hold the weapon and the long sword fell to the ground
However, Leo turned the hilt of the sword like a reflex and slapped Pete's chest with the mirror-like sword surface, and the soldiers who have experienced the cold weapon war know that many times in the face of heavily armored enemies, the slap will be more effective
The growing long sword in his pupils made Pete almost lose the ability to breathe, and his body couldn't react at all, but fortunately, Leo came to his senses again after a short trance, and barely withdrew more than seventy percent of his strength at the last moment, but even so, the sword surface and the breastplate still made a terrifying and hollow loud noise
Pete, who was attacked, was even more unbearable, and directly knocked over the simple fixed plastic pillar behind him and flew out upside down, the electric flint happened so fast that the director didn't have time to stop, and the camera faithfully recorded all the scenes in front of him......
"Stop, damn it! Stop, stop! God, the doctor or whoever comes with me! β
Reacting, the director ran desperately to Pete's place with a cold sweat gushing out instantly, and a few people behind him couldn't care about anything else, and there were still a few steps to leave, and the long dent on the alloy cuirass made several people a little frightened
Fortunately, because after the filming of this kind of movie, many props will be treated as collectibles for charity auctions, for this reason, in terms of workmanship, although the armor on Pete's body is average in weight, but the all-alloy structure is still remarkable in terms of resistance to hits, plus Leo's final stage of strength, when the director and others have not yet run to the side, this Hollywood first-line actor has barely sat up with his arms up
Reaching out to push away the mask that affected his breathing, Pete, who was gasping for breath, was pale and inexplicably dazed, as if he didn't understand why he flew out in an instant, and his right hand subconsciously touched the dent of the breastplate, swallowed hard, and looked at Leo with a somewhat empty gaze......
"Are you alright, Pete? Peter? Damn it! β
"Ahem! I'm okay directing, I'm just scared, hey! Did you just shoot everything? I swear this scene will drive everyone who sees the movie crazy, even those harsh critics can only write praise, hey, don't touch me, I'm really fine, this dress is too heavy and someone will help me up......"
The safety of the male number one relieved everyone, including Leo, especially Leo himself, he almost had the urge to run away just now, and after seeing that Pete could still point his fingers and ask about the shooting just now, he walked over apologetically, pushed away the mask armor and whispered
"Sorry Pete, well, I ...... I don't want to explain too much, it was an accident, huh...... If I say I'm just used to it, can you forgive me for my negligence? β
After a few moves on the spot, Pete, who was fine with a simple inspection, became lively again
"Yes, it's okay man, shooting is like that, anything can happen, you did a really nice job, I didn't have a chance to react and flew out, you must teach me a few hands later, hey...... What do you say, what are you used to? β
"Nothing...... If you're willing to learn, I'd love to, sorry Pete! β
Walking a few steps away, staring at the somewhat crooked and deformed prop sword in his hand, an indescribable thought came to Leo's mind
"It seems...... Maybe I'm really more comfortable with that world! β
