33. Chapter 33: Friends

As a landmark American drama, Friends has been on the air for ten years, and it is a record-breaking, milestone existence, never before has a TV series caused such a profound impact, made so much profit, used so many actors and crew, and countless celebrity cameos, from Isabella Rossellini, Ralph Lauren to Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts, and also Gwenton, Jozzie Clooney, Brooke Littles, Suzan Sarandon, Sean Penn, Bruce Willis Winona. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info Rhett et al., there is no second sitcom in the world that has this treatment.

Of course Wang Jie is very excited to be able to appear in such a TV series again, through the jewel, he still knows this TV series very well, so after signing the WME, Wang Jie took over the filming of Friends, the director of the two episodes, as he thought, there is no such plot in the gem, it was added, this point, he asked Maria, for American dramas, it is common for a single episode of scripts to be passive four or five times, and he was relieved.

In the six-person line, the six old friends all belong to the main role (starringrole), and the role positioning that Wang Jie received is basically a rotating role recurringrole, because it is a drama like Friends, so Maria does not seem to have any desire to bargain, Wang Jie has not yet released any movies and TV series, and being able to play two important roles in Friends is definitely something that Maria's previous customers can't do.

Yes, Maria is just over 30 years old, and she is still a newcomer in the circle of agents, before that, her clients could only mess around in various small-budget independent films, and Friends has filmed its third season this year, and the ratings have gradually stabilized in the top three in the ratings, although it is not the opponent of Seinfeld's long-running and fan-rich dramas, but it is also a popular drama.

While reviewing the contract, Wang Jie got the script, and the plot was simple, but said that on this day, Joey and Phoebe were chatting outside the café, and suddenly talked about Joey's newly promoted role as a hooligan of an indecent girl. At this time, Wang Jie jumped out and shouted to stop, and the salty pig hand he hit lay directly on the ground, and the two-episode interaction between him and his old friends began, his plot identity is an international student who came to New York to study independently, and after discovering the "misunderstanding" of Joey, he helped him heal, and then was invited to live in Joey's house.

Regarding the problem that Wang Jie has not learned acting, he at least has the experience of Martians playing on the earth, although the sitcom is completely different from the movie, but at least there is not so much tension, of course, countless nights of wandering and adventure, he at least does not care so much psychologically.

Unfortunately, today is Warner's studio, Burbank Studios No. 7, there is no role for him today, but the director just wants to see him, and he is already familiar with it.

This was a script workshop before the start of filming, six old friends and director Ke Roger, and the main screenwriter David Klein, all came to participate, Lisa Kuzhuo's personality is the most generous and outgoing, so she did Wang Jie's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, brother, you did a really nice job." ”

"Thank you."

Screenwriter David said: "When I saw you filming in the studio next door that day, I thought of asking you to play two episodes, to be honest, although I don't know kung fu, but I also think that move is very beautiful, do you have any thoughts on this, there are many bridges, our screenwriters don't know kung fu very well, so look for you to see, what do you think about this?" ”

Wang Jie thought about it, he smiled mysteriously, at this moment, the big bang, hangover, etc., and many other film and television dramas are possessed, how can he fight alone, he has a gem possession, at least in terms of screenwriting, invincible.

Of course he knew, he couldn't be too shocking and do something that violated the rules of physics, there were coffee cups on the table, there was a script, there was a ballpoint pen, he picked up two ballpoint pens, one of the scripts, and the other was put up on the cap of the pen, and the script was placed on the ballpoint pen that was erected, and he just picked it up with one hand, and everyone applauded.

Wang Jie stopped, this is good.

David Klein and Kroger looked at Wang Jie, and whispered for a while, I don't know what plot arrangement they are discussing, for American dramas, it is very normal to temporarily change the plot according to what has happened in the recent period of time and carry out all kinds of "random intake".

This is a sitcom, the biggest requirement for acting skills, first of all, can not laugh, and then secondly, he is proficient in all kinds of facial expressions, saying all kinds of lines, Wang Jie can still cope with this, before the start of filming, according to the previous discussion, Wang Jie went to the styling hall to arrange a Bruce Lee-style scattered hairstyle, remembering the note that stated Li Zhenfan in California, he smiled slightly, now he has the purest kung fu under the guidance of the master "Chen Zhen" outside, and there are gems as the backing, who can say that he is not the official heir of Bruce Lee?

There is still a period of time before the September TV season starts, so the daily shooting of the series is quite orderly, Wang Jie relies on the jokes in the gem combined with his kung fu, although the shooting work occasionally has some scenes that need to be repeated, but it is quite smooth, and the time to shout "nogood" is getting less and less, as Joey's actor Matt said, when he wants to show sadness, he usually thinks of the death of the dog he raised, and when he is angry, he finds that the dog he raised died because of eating the chocolate fed by the neighbor's bear child.

(Chocolate is highly toxic to dogs)

In a word, what he needs to play now is not a too difficult role, and it is not a location crew that needs to rush to work according to the number of days every day, running back and forth between the set and restaurants from 9 to 5 every day.

He set the time to get up early at 5 o'clock, although there is no opportunity to practice any equipment, or the plum blossom pile suggested by "Chen Zhen", but for him, the current weight-bearing running is enough to carry out various training tasks or ordinary actions when sitting, lying and walking, give rapid growth, under this kind of training, you can watch your strength limit, endurance limit is growing, and morale is the most improved. It's because I can't see immediate results, but now it's okay, and the progress of training every day is clearly displayed.

He circled his usual route, after running the target, he was already tired and panting, the sweat in his hair dripped down his face to the ground, and after running back, he looked at a car that had been following him all the time, he had already noticed the car, probably what kind of reporter it was, although he was not very famous, but someone was willing to follow and interview him, and he couldn't be like Sean Penn, shooting and chasing people.

After the morning exercise every morning, he hurried to take a shower, at this time his uncle and his family got up one by one, Li Minyou was wearing a new school uniform, he was going to school next month, and he was wearing new clothes these days, stinky and beautiful.

"Cousin, you should teach me kung fu today."

Wang Jie turned his head and glanced at his uncle, who nodded, they had discussed before, if Wang Jie was busy, he would teach it.

Gems don't seem to be able to be used by other people, but many of the items that are exchanged can be given to others to use, even if it is a trace of the seed of Tai Chi power, it can also be exchanged for others to use, but this child has just gone to school, so he gave him this kind of big killer, no matter what, it will affect his growth, he thinks about Long Xiaoyun's sad bear child Long Xiaoyun, and makes up his mind that he should first lay a foundation for his cousin according to the essence of Chinese kung fu taught to him by "Chen Zhen", and wait for a few years. The cousin was able to control his kung fu and use it, and then give it to him, although it was written in the gem, and when he comprehended it to a certain extent, he could teach it directly to others without having to exchange it, but it was estimated that it would be difficult.

Just as Wang Jie was having breakfast and preparing to go to the studio in Burbank to continue filming Friends, in a nearby neighborhood, a house with a strange layout and the smell of kimchi, and outside the house, a sign of the Korean Tigers taekwondo gym was hung.
