Chapter 378: Hollywood!
Chu Qing came to the hotel agreed by both parties, the hotel is not very high-end, it belongs to the kind of hotel that Wang Cong said.
As soon as Chu Qing walked into the conference hall, the few people sitting inside immediately got up to greet him.
"Hahaha, Mr. Chu, I have been looking up to the name for a long time, I have watched and watched several of your movies, especially your "Infernal Affairs", which is really classic"
"I have never seen such a perfect fusion of the two main lines"
The most enthusiastic is a middle-aged white man, about 1.8 meters tall, with a big belly and curly brown hair, I don't know if he has black blood.
Don't look at him as stunning, but he is one of the new generation of Hollywood directors, and he also has some energy here in Hollywood.
It can be benchmarked against the domestic Han Jie!
Although it can't be compared with the older generation of big-name directors, there are really few of the new generation of directors who are his opponents.
Chu Qing smiled and shook hands with the other party and said, "Director Smith, I have also watched a lot of your movies, and my favorite is which of your "Silence", it really made my scalp numb when I watched it!" ”
"Silence" is a small-budget film and director Smith's debut work.
With a total investment of one million US dollars, it has received a total box office of more than 40 million US dollars, which can be said to be rare in the industry.
After the two praised each other, they sat down.
And Chu Qing was finally able to read the complete script once before signing the contract!
This script is actually not complicated, and the content is probably that a mysterious hole appears under the sea, and the reconnaissance robot finds a pyramid in it.
After Li Jianguo learned about this, he sent a female biologist to go with the archaeologist played by Chu Qing.
The male protagonist is the captain of the escort team, and the female biologist is the female protagonist.
Chu Qing plays a lot of roles in the play, and he can be regarded as a second male role.
But Chu Qing still found some details by watching the lines and so on, this character should have belonged to a black man!
Because some of the settings are closer to black people!
may have noticed Chu Qing's expression, but Director Smith didn't hide it.
"Actually, when this character was originally set, we wanted to find a black actor to play it, after all, you know it."
Director Smith shrugged, that's their national condition.
When filming some movies, there must be black shots, otherwise some people will say that they are racist!
Director Smith smiled: "But please don't mind, because it's just some slight gaps, and we can change the lines when the time comes."
Chu Qing shook his head with a smile after reading it: "These are not problems, I think I can handle this role, Mr. Smith, the next thing is the contract"
Smith didn't speak, and the assistant behind him had already taken out a document in his briefcase.
Smith took it and handed it to Chu Qing and said, "Mr. Chu, this is the contract, if there is something that makes you feel unsatisfied, we can negotiate"
Chu Qing was not polite, and after taking the contract, he carefully observed it with Song Dawei.
The salary price given by the other party is very good, 10 million US dollars!
The filming lasted for two months, and there was a request for free refilming for the crew.
During the period in Hollywood, the clothing, food, housing and transportation are all borne by the crew, and the makeup products and so on are all marked on them, all of which are brands that do not irritate the skin.
Overall, it's pretty good.
After the two parties signed the contract, the matter was settled.
Chu Qing got the script and stayed in the hotel arranged by the crew, and the filming time was very tight, it was going to be filmed in a week, and there was no more time to study the script.
And his role, there is no character biography, only some basic data, if you want to play it well, you need to enrich the role yourself.
Fortunately, this is not a problem for Chu Qing.
The time came to mid-May, and the crew officially started!
It wasn't until this time that Chu Qing saw the hero and heroine of this movie!
The actor is Hollywood bigwig Pete! Chu Qing's ability to star in this movie has a certain relationship with him.
If there was no name on the cast, Chu Qing would not consider this crew at all.
After all, this person's name often represents the quality of the movie!
The actress is a scandal-ridden person, with poor reviews in Hollywood, although she has won the Oscar for Best Actress, but because she used some means, she was also nicknamed the shame of the Oscar by netizens!
But no matter what others say, controversy means heat, and the heat on her body is still very high! Perhaps this is the reason why the director chose her as the heroine.
Pete was very talkative, without a bit of arrogance, and after seeing Chu Qing, the two shook hands with each other and praised each other.
Although Chu Qing knew that the other party couldn't have seen his movie, he should just search for information and tout it, but he still felt that it was very useful.
The heroine Paltrow's shelf is not small, and she doesn't bother to deal with Chu Qing at all, and when the two meet, they just give Chu Qing a smile to prove that she is not racist.
But that's good, Chu Qing didn't plan to have too much contact with the other party.
After putting on the makeup, the film began to shoot.
This film will use a lot of special effects, but very few live locations, and most of the content will be done in the studio.
"Three-two-one, Ike God!"
As the director began, Chu Qing, who was dressed in casual clothes, stood up on the office chair, walked to Pete with a smile and shook hands with the other party and said, "Hello, Mr. Pete, I am the archaeologist of this mission, and I am responsible for checking that this is not an ancient ruin."
Pete shook hands with Chu Qing without smiling: "Hello sir, I am the captain of the escort team this time, and I am responsible for protecting your safety!" Please also go to the bottom of the sea and cooperate with our work! ”
Chu Qing nodded kindly with a smile: "That's natural, professional things should be handed over to professional people to be responsible, I believe that in terms of protecting people, you are definitely professional"
Hearing Chu Qing's 'touting', Pete couldn't help but smile on his face.
At this time, the heroine outside the door pushed the door in, and she didn't even look at Pete, but walked directly to Chu Qing excitedly.
"Chu! The latest news has just been fed back, and life fluctuations have been found in the ruins! ”
Chu Qing shrugged helplessly and said, "Paltrow, maybe it's just some fish or sea snakes?" ”
Paltrow shook his head excitedly and said, "No, the reaction of this kind of life fluctuation is very weak and slow, and it is definitely not a sea fish or a sea snake."
Chu Qing sighed and said, "Finding a living form is not necessarily a good thing for us."
Paltrow was about to refute, but found Pete on the side.
As if she had just seen each other, she smiled and stretched out her hand: "Hello, I'm the biologist for this mission, Paltrow!" ”
