In the northwest suburbs of Los Angeles, in the filming area of Universal Studios Hollywood, a crew is preparing in an orderly manner, and there are other crews filming not far away.

A large group of reporters were crowded outside the crew's blocking line, and from time to time some tourists looked curiously inside the blocking line, and many tourists stopped to watch.

"It's a focus, but it's a pity that everyone knows about it!" A white reporter muttered that he had come here early in the morning just to seize a favorable position, but it was still useless, and he could only show a helpless expression when he looked at the bustling peers beside him.

"Hey, do you think Eliza Cusbert's song is a hint of self-despair?" A chubby white reporter said, as if a few drops of water had been dropped into a pan of oil, and the pot exploded.

"I think so, look at the song title "Why Don't You Like Me?" circulating on the Internet. You can know, I don't understand what is good about that Lin Fei, Scarlett Johansson and Eliza Cuthbert both like him, is Tom Cruise not as good as him? I think it's just a joke. "This reporter has a lot of resentment against Lin Fei.

"And Erin Andrews, and many other women, I don't understand, but we don't have the strength, we can only shoot others, not be filmed by others." A reporter said with a sigh.

"It's out, it's out!" I don't know who saw the venue first, but I saw Lin Fei walking out of the makeup studio first.

It is almost the same as Lin Fei on the court, wearing the No. 8 jersey of the Clippers' home court, and the jersey is wet, looking like he has just played a fierce game.

"Is it shooting basketball?" There was a question in everyone's mind.

The staff has basically prepared the required equipment and is making final adjustments.

Scarlett in the dressing studio is putting on makeup, very simple light makeup, her shots are not many, and it is also a very small part of a song MV, originally this role Eliza was going to be played, and Scarlett took the initiative to ask for help after becoming Scarlett's role, when Scarlett read the MV script, the expression on her face flashed that people couldn't read, but she knew in her heart that this was basically equal to her true color performance.

Although this is only an MV shoot, Eliza Cuthbert's attention to it can be seen from the director to the selection of the shooting crew, because for her, this may be the only shot in her life.

David Fincher, this is the director invited by Eliza, David Fincher is a director who enjoys a pivotal role in the world of directors, a super all-round director, advertising, film, music, everything, a director with a unique style.

When David Fincher saw Lin Fei coming out, he took the initiative to greet him, "Lin, I'm your loyal fan!" The lore that day was so handsome! "David Fincher doesn't look like a man in his forties at all, but like a starchaser.

Lin Fei was a little embarrassed, "Can I call you David?" You are my idol, I love your filming of "Alien", "Zodiac", "Seven Deadly Sins", etc., I love your style! ”

"Of course, Super Forest! I also think my stuff is good, and I hope we can make a classic music video for a happy cooperation in the future! ”

Lin Fei nodded and said, "David, I hope too." ”

David Fincher began to explain to him some specific requirements for the next shooting, but Lin Fei had the experience of filming Scarlett's public service announcement last time, and Lin Fei was not much nervous about this shooting, although he already knew the lyrics, but when he read the script, he still had a great touch in his heart.

The first shot is the scene of the male protagonist played by Lin Fei playing in the stadium, the heroine played by Cuthbert sat in a corner of the audience with sunglasses and watched Lin Fei on the field, and the female number two played by Scarlett Johansson sat behind Lin Fei's bench.

Lin Fei felt that he should be able to complete these scenes well without much pressure, and at this time, the lost and lonely back of the woman played by Cuthbert disappeared at the entrance of the arena, which was the first main shot. The subsequent shots have high requirements for Lin Fei, mainly requiring him to complete some shots alone, and these shots are generated by the memories of the heroine played by Cuthbert, and Lin Fei must feel the emotions in the character's heart and then play them.

"Can we start?" David Fincher looked at Lin Fei and said with a smile.

"Hmm!" Lin Fei nodded.

At this time, Scarlett Johansson and Eliza Cuthbert were ready, and Lin Fei couldn't help but feel amazed when he looked at the two of them.

followed the film crew into a set studio, you must know that the props in any movie scene in the entire Universal Studios can be found almost anywhere, including physical large props, such as basketball courts and football fields, and at this time, there is a friendly match on the court in Universal Studios, so the audience can just help, as for those players, they are very happy to compete with Lin Fei, although there are only a few shots.

The scene was filmed smoothly, and Cuthbert quickly got into the groove, from the smile on his lips when watching the game to the loss when he saw the happiness of Scarlett's female number two and Lin Fei, which made David Fincher admire.

The second scene is mainly Cuthbert's performance, Scarlett looks at Cuthbert under the camera with some faint throbbing in her heart, can't say too much feeling, it seems that everything is real, as a woman's sensitivity to feelings is almost innate, she can clearly feel the kind of feelings that Cuthbert exudes.

"The last time I had a conversation with her, I hid my tears, like she promised not to happen again, she was so perfect, I had no confidence!" Cuthbert looked at himself at the camera and sang with a smile, the bright red lipstick on his lips was strangely dazzling, and the loneliness on his face and the emptiness of his eyes made all the crew feel pity, Lin Fei tilted his head to one side, his eyes looked at the sky, blue but seemed to be melancholy.

“good!good！” When tears flowed from the corners of Cuthbert's eyes, a small shot was officially completed, and David Fincher, the famous director, couldn't help but scream, he was shocked by Cuthbert's performance, once and for all, and it was so perfect.

Cuthbert's smile was a little bleak, as if he hadn't come out of the music video shoot yet.

"Need a break?" Scarlett asked softly, handing over the water in her hand.

"Not tired! You can go on! Cuthbert took a sip of water.

"Okay, let's continue, I feel like I can do it in half a day at this speed, Eliza, I think I can find you to be the female number one in my next play." David Fincher snapped his fingers and said.

"I thought time could erase everything, but I'm getting deeper and deeper, I want to talk to you, am I really not attracted to you? Does my smile scare you? ”

Eliza Cuthbert's singer looked particularly sad under the accompaniment, every staff member on the scene was brought into such an emotion, and the reporters waiting not far away made eye contact from time to time, and they couldn't bear to interrupt such an atmosphere at the moment and couldn't think of it, they were also brought into the world of the woman played by Cuthbert, a woman who looked at her love from afar.

"Is my body really half as good as hers? Am I too frivolous and dirty? Don't you really like the way I look? I can be perfect, I can be ladylike, I find myself a little shy, why don't you like me and only like her? ”

Cuthbert in front of the camera instantly became a lady, with a smile and a ladylike demeanor, and a faint flush on her cheeks, everything was so in line with the lyrics and the artistic conception of the song.

Another shot is completed, followed by a lot of short shots, especially in the second half of the lyrics, where Cuthbert sings "I can do anything for you, why don't you like me who doesn't make any changes?" I tried to be as elegant as Grace Kelly, but her expression was too sad! When Cuthbert appeared in Grace Kelly's classic costume, it was even more amazing to Scarlett on the side, from the bottom of his heart.

And when the last line is sung, "I can add a little Monroe-like sense of surname!" At that time, Cuthbert made Marilyn Monroe's classic action in a nightgown, and suddenly the sense of surname was vividly displayed, a different kind of surname temptation.

"If you need to, I can work hard like Audrey, I think I'm crazy, I can be a flattering brown melancholy blue or a shy violet-like sky" As the song progresses, Cuthbert's performance becomes more and more skillful, not wanting to perform but living, living really, she is the female number one Ruth in the MV, Ruth is her in the real world, and the two become one.

"I can hurt countless people, and I can be arrogant, I can be whatever you like! I have to change if I become energetic or despicable, and more! ”

"But why don't you like me? Why don't you like me? When this sentence was sung, Cuthbert in front of the camera became a face, and his expression instantly became extremely painful, Lin Fei's heart was like being pierced by a thorn, and with the tears dripping from the corners of Cuthbert's eyes, his heart was vibrating.

At this time, Scarlett Johansson on the sidelines had already left, "Am I wrong? Scarlett muttered in the dressing studio, her mind full of Cuthbert's shots, scene after scene replayed, each replay touching her heart.

"I really want to say to you, 'Get out of here!' I'm still trying, but why don't you like me? Cuthbert sat down in front of the mirror with the singing. His long golden hair was scattered, as if he had lost his soul, and his eyes looked at himself in the mirror with empty eyes, and Cuthbert smiled miserably. For a long time, Cuthbert stood up tremblingly, "When time passes, I can only helplessly say, "Eliza, let's go!" ”

The camera and Cuthbert's back zoomed farther and farther away, and the sound of the heels tapping on the ground became quieter and quieter.

David Fincher couldn't ask himself to applaud, he asked himself for the first time in more than 20 years that he was so shocked by the actor's performance, and all the shots of Cuthbert passed through it all at once, and in his heart this was an unbreakable miracle.

Cuthbert knows because she's in real life and not acting.

Perhaps affected by Cusbert's performance, Scarlett's happy shots were constantly stopped, David Fincher explained the essentials of the performance over and over again, but Scarlett couldn't do it well, and although Lin Fei was a little better than Scarlett, it was about the same, Cusbert's head kept hovering in his mind, and the tears in the corners of his eyes, the bleak smile, the empty eyes, and the powerless decadence hit the two of them bit by bit.

It took a whole afternoon until the end to pass the footage of the two people, and David Fincher knew in his heart that this MV would be a success, even if Lin Fei and Scarlett's performances were very average, but Cuthbert's performance was enough to cover everyone up and shock everyone.

When all the staff saw the original MV version, they were shocked again, and they deeply felt the deep affection and helplessness in the heart of Ruth, the female number one played by Cuthbert.

I don't know what Scarlett and Cuthbert said, when the MV afternoon filming ended and the crew celebrated, the two of them left at the same time, and Lin Fei returned to his cabin after saying goodbye to the crew.

But I couldn't calm down in my heart, and I kept ringing in my head, "Why don't you like me?" ”

I don't know how long it took, Lin Fei entered the dream and then entered the soul ring, but he didn't find that the venue he used to train in was only Wilt Chamberlain sitting on a chair on the street.

"Come here, boy! Look at your haggard appearance, as if you have been wheeled! Chamberlain's voice drilled into his ears, and Lin Fei moved his steps, which seemed to be much heavier than before.

"Boy, I know what you're thinking? Would you like to hear the opinion of me, who has come from the past? Chamberlain said with a smile.

Lin Fei sat next to Chamberlain and smiled bitterly, "Wilt, can you help me?" Obviously, Lin Fei still didn't believe it.

"Nonsense, am I wasting my time just to lie to you, I have no interest in lying to a guy with a low IQ like you, not at all!" Chamberlain stretched out his finger and knocked Lin Fei's head hard.

"Then I'm sorry for you!"

"Boy, do you feel sorry for Cuthbert?"

Lin Fei nodded and said, "Hmm! ”

"Why do you feel sorry for her? Did you do anything to her? Chamberlain asked rhetorically.

"No ......"

"Why do you feel sorry if you don't?" Chamberlain directly interrupted Lin Fei's words.

Chamberlain continued: "Because her feelings for you have shaken you? ”

Lin Fei looked at Chamberlain and nodded.

"Then I just want you to tell me, do you like her?"

Lin Fei fell into deep thought, and Cuthbert and his bits and pieces began to appear in his mind.

"You like her, don't you!" Chamberlain looked at the pensive Lin Fei and asked.

Lin Fei did not deny it.

"Actually, sometimes it's simple, and Erin Andrews is not like that! You are still young, there are some things you don't need to think about too much, you just need to think about the people you love, the people who love you! When Lin Fei raised his head, Chamberlain had disappeared.

"Yes! Just think about the people I love and the people who love me! Lin Fei said softly, and the shot of Cuthbert appeared in his mind again, "Why don't you like me?" The corners of Lin Fei's mouth bloomed with a smile.
