257 Cast of Dragons
Lan Li looked left and right, trying to find a place to sit down and slowly flip through the script. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But this is obviously not an easy task.
The Burbank set is divided into company areas, and in each area there will be a corresponding coffee house and restaurant to serve the staff on the set, which also makes the jobs in the studio hot, but Universal Pictures is different, it is still a tourist open area, and the activity area of tourists cannot be 100% isolated, so there is no public rest area near the studio.
Lan Li's current line of sight is a straight road, with some props and boxes piled up on both sides, covered with gray tarpaulins, and then white lines mark the parking area - now it is empty, let alone a place to sit and rest, not even a place to stand and block the sun.
Of course, for those top big-name stars, they can ask the crew to equip a luxury van and have a good rest in the car, without worrying about being watched or exposed to the sun.
Obviously, this is what the prankster wants to see: a dilemma, if he goes back, he may delay the shooting, and if he stays, he will be embarrassed, and Lan Li is pushed into an extremely awkward position.
No matter who is behind this prank, Lan Li has to admit that this is a good move.
Nathan opened the door of the back seat and took out the script from his backpack, but after thinking about it, he still felt angry! Why would anyone target Lan Li like this? Why would anyone want to play a prank? Why did Lan Li not seem angry at all?
"Lan Li! I think I still have to tell Andy about this!" Nathan became more and more angry the more he thought about it, but he didn't know what to do, the first thought in his mind was to ask Andy for help, he took out the script and slammed the back door shut, but the words that followed were stuck in his throat -
I saw Lan Li sit directly on the front of the car, tilting his head slightly, bathing in the warm sunshine of the early morning, and the breeze caressed his short hair, a comfortable appearance.
"Of course, you can call him now. Hearing the words, Lan Li said casually.
When I was in the crew of "Pacific War" before, I didn't have an agent, and I handled everything by myself; now that I have an agent, I naturally have to make full use of it, not to mention, this incident also involved two drama affairs, and it is more appropriate for the agent to come forward.
Looking at Lan Li's relaxed demeanor, Nathan was already smoking, which was really abnormal, he couldn't help but ask, "Lan Li, aren't you angry?"
"Of course I'm angry, I'm not Jesus, and I silently endure the suffering that others throw at me, and then forgive them with a big heart. Lan Li's humorous words were mixed with mockery and lightness, Nathan was stunned, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but rise, "However, being angry doesn't mean losing control. I think what the controller behind the scenes wants to see the most is that I get out of control, and then make things bigger, and when the time comes, I offend the whole crew, and that's the real embarrassment. ”
"That'...... So that's it?" Nathan's smile narrowed, but he couldn't swallow it.
Lan Li's expression suddenly became serious, "Of course not, so you'd better call Andy now, I mean, now! ”
Nathan hurriedly handed the script to Lan Li, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and dialed Andy's number. However, in order not to disturb Lan Li reading the script, he took a step and walked to the side.
Lan Li lowered her head and began to flip through the script. The original clean and tidy script is now posted with stickers of various colors on the side, as long as you pull the sticker and open it, you can see that the content of that page is marked with a yellow highlighter, all of which are Lan Li's scenes and lines, which are clear at a glance.
These notes were made by Nathan in advance, and that was the case on the first day Lan Li got the script.
The script reading of "Speed and Excitement/Emotion 5" is different from any previous work, Lan Li does not need to delve into every line and every scene carefully, because there is no need for this at all, strictly speaking, the lines in it are not much, and there is no esoteric content. Lan Li conceived and positioned Hobbes's character image, and after finding his own style, the basic work was completed, and the rest was left to the scene.
However, Lan Li is still keen to read the script, on the one hand, because of the actors' love for the script, and on the other hand, because of curiosity about the construction and use of film shots.
The script is very monotonous and flat, it can describe the scene and lines, but the evolution from paper to picture requires the processing and imagination of the director, as well as the understanding and interpretation of the actors.
Compared with the two scripts of "Buried Alive" and "Love is Crazy", the script of "Fast and Thrill/Love 5" seems very thin, which makes Lan Li can't help but mirror the script with the pictures watched in the previous life, which is a magical process that makes people deeply feel the magic and beauty of the filmmaking industry.
The passage of time began to blur, the sun slowly rose in the sky, Lan Li gradually began to feel stuffy, and the sound of breathless conversation came to his ears, and he couldn't help but raise his head and get rid of the composition of the script.
"Oh hehe, no, no, he never communicates with us on set. What he means is that he's a top star and he doesn't have to communicate with us. ”
"But when it comes to media publicity, he always gets along well with the crew, doesn't he? I know the news always promotes positive news. But the same is true of the rumors in the circle, I thought ......"
"Yes, he always gets along well with the crew, he buys donuts for afternoon tea, and he prepares morning coffee. You know, it's the assistant who comes over with the delivery van, and then the whole crew can go over and pick it up. These PR jobs, he was flawless. But, only for the crew, for us tricks, you know. ”
The chattering sound next to him came, Nathan was talking to a middle-aged old man, both of them consciously lowered their voices, but the passage of the studio had a little echo effect, and no matter how small the sound was, it would rub against the air, which was unavoidable. It can be seen that the two of them have a good conversation.
The old man sitting next to him looked like he was about fifty or sixty years old, his hair was white, between gray and silvery-white, a little bald, and a piece of light in the middle could be faintly seen; the skin folds were obviously sagging, the layers of wrinkles showed the power of time, and the small squinted eyes made the wrinkles at the corners of the eyes become obvious; the lower lip always unconsciously wrapped the upper lip, and from time to time he would smash his mouth, and his right hand unconsciously put it to his mouth and touch it, it looked like it should be an old smoking gun.
The vicissitudes of life look unrecognizable, as if he is an ordinary middle-aged American, who may have a bit of an alcoholic problem, and his life is not too depressed but not very affluent, and more than half of the entire society is made up of this type of people. However, it always makes people feel a little familiar, not sure whether it is a stranger who passes by in the company, or a certain building security guard, the sense of familiarity that seems to be familiar but can't be explained, is actually a little funny.
"So, what are you expecting?" Lan Li said, and the two people sitting on the opposite steps were interrupted from their conversation, and at the same time turned their heads and stood up in a panic.
Nathan's expression was a little embarrassed, he thought that his conversation was too loud and disturbed Lan Li, but after a careful look, he found that Lan Li had a smile on the corner of his mouth, which made him a little relieved.
Without hearing an answer, Lan Li repeated his question again, and added, "In my opinion, as an actor, his public relations work is already very good, at least the face project is full marks." So, what are you expecting?"
The old man chuckled and shrugged, "I don't know either." Maybe I'm just jealous of his brilliance, or maybe I'm jealous that everyone is saying good things about him, and I can't help but want to splash a little dirty water. The self-deprecating words were full of wisdom, but they quietly defused Lan Li's attack.
It's an old fritter.
The old man walked up quickly, "Good morning, Lan Li." From afar, he stretched out his right hand, and the deliberate reverence seemed to test Lan Li's reaction, and he had no intention of concealing it. This is really funny, Lan Li couldn't help but smile, "I'm Alfred-Wayne (Alfred-Wayne), a dragon actor, and I have three scenes in the crew today, playing the onlookers. ”
Lan Li jumped out of the front of the car, sorted out his clothes, and then solemnly stretched out his right hand and shook the other party's right hand, "Good morning, I'm Lan Li-Hall." ”
This simple action made Alfred stunned. Respect, what was shown in Lan Li's actions just now was respect, respect that put both parties on an equal footing. In fact, this is what every actor desires.
What they need is not a small favor from a condescending handout, nor a big star's attention, or even the other person's name - after all, there are so many actors in the costume that even they don't necessarily remember the name of every colleague. All they need is respect, a smile, a nod, a look, that's all.
Alfred was talking about George Clooney, and he didn't like George. Not because George offended him, or because George was too perfect, but because George was a politician. All of this is just a ploy for the public to see, and every move is full of hypocrisy and illusion.
It can be said that he thinks too much about himself, or it can be said that he is envious, jealous and hateful, but this is the case.
So, is this really the case with Lan Li in front of him, or is he just wearing a more perfect mask?
