Chapter 1075 [Mysterious Confidence, Genius Actor]
After holding a press conference, Guo Xu handed over the signing of the veteran to Kupchak and went on vacation. He won't meet with big-name free agents and go to great lengths to invite them.
Anyway, he sent the words here, let the Lakers management poach the veterans, and the lineup should be as reasonable as possible. Kupchak has been in the manager's position for a long time, the team has rebuilt three times, and he knows what to do.
The Internet is full of posts discussing Guo Xu, and there is also a discussion about whether the Warriors can establish a dynasty with three consecutive championships.
"If Jason Guo is back to the Suns, I think the Suns are more likely to beat the Warriors to win the championship, and now that he is going to the Lakers, I don't believe he will be able to win the championship next season with a group of shrimp soldiers and crabs."
Even if Bosh and Horford can play next season, the Lakers' roster can only be described as good, there are almost no outstanding benches, and Clarkson is just a second-round pick. Jason feels that this squad can win the championship, which is really a mysterious confidence. ”
"Before the lineup is ready, Jason has already shouted the slogan of winning the championship, is this to make the Lakers the public enemy next season?"
"Didn't he say he was going to practice during the holidays? Why are you going to make a movie again? And I heard him writing tunes before. ”
Guo Xu began filming a new film "La La Land" this month, which was filmed in Los Angeles, and the salary was included in the production cost.
The crew is all in place, the director is Damien Charescher, and the heroine is "Sister Stone" Emma Stone. She got the role through an audition, and the two performances were wonderful.
After the film was established, only a few actresses were invited to audition. If the audition is public, as soon as I hear that it is starring Guo Xu, it is estimated that the age is right, and all the actresses who can sing and dance will come.
Now there is a consensus among actresses in the circle that cooperating with Guo Xu is equivalent to becoming famous. No matter what hair color you are, what your origins are, Asian, Latino, Canadian, or Australian, you're bound to be popular.
Even Kim so-hyun, who played a small supporting role in Tomorrow's Company movies, is now popular and participated in "Avengers 2".
In addition to Sister Stone, the people who were invited to audition included Scarlett Johansson, Emma Watson, and Anne Hathaway.
Damien preferred Emma Watson to star, but the filming time conflicted with the Disney blockbuster "Beauty and the Beast", and Emma had been preparing for that movie for a long time and chose a big production.
Guo Xu watched Watson's audition and felt that if she was the starring role, she might not be able to get the actress, and at most she would be nominated.
Her acting skills are often complained about by the audience, and so far except for the "Harry Potter" series, other works are really average. "Average" is a face-saving statement, and her "Colony of Dignity" both hit the street at the word-of-mouth box office, setting a record for the lowest box office in the UK of "£47" in the first week.
Scarlett can sing and dance, but her temperament does not match, and she smokes and drinks. Guo Xu felt that if Chris Evans also participated in this movie, he could directly shout "avengers assemble"!
Hathaway's acting skills are passing, but she has been a bit annoying in North America lately. She is still famous for ruining everything with a laugh, and the heroine in the movie has a lot of laughing scenes, which is not easy to do.
Emma is the most suitable because her real life is very similar to the role, and when she first arrived in Hollywood, she also experienced many failed auditions, such as in 2004, she auditioned for the role of cheerleader in the NBC TV series "Heroes" and lost to Haydn Panettiere.
The only thing director Damien thinks Emma is inappropriate is that her appearance looks older than Guo Xu.
This is very magical, Emma was born in November 1988, 7 years younger than Guo Xu, but she looks haggard, Guo Xu is radiant, as if she is 7 years older than Guo Xu.
Damien asked Guo Xu: "Boss, can you accept the makeup artist to paint you a little older?" Otherwise, you two don't get along well enough. ”
Guo Xu said that there was no problem, and the talent of the crew breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that he would be dissatisfied with Emma's appearance and replace it.
The actor must be played by Guo Xu, this is not a role he won by using his rights, everyone thinks that no one is more suitable than him. The soundtrack and songs of "La La Land" were all completed by him and Justin Hivetz, and Guo Xu contributed more, he set the tune and played and sang it himself.
The piano performance in the film will be all done by Guo Xu himself, and what he plays is the jazz feeling that Damien wants.
The film is a soundtrack that comes out first, and then it is filmed, and you can dance to the music while filming, so that you can shoot a sense of rhythm. After Guo Xu participated in the soundtrack, the film could start shooting three months in advance.
Guo Xu acted a few paragraphs randomly, and Damien couldn't jump out of any problems, the role seemed to be tailor-made for him. His literary performances are very natural, the dance scenes are flawless, and the dance is also designed by him.
At that time, Guo Xu will still have to be in charge of directing Emma, she is not so natural in the expressiveness of singing and dancing, but she is already the best among the audition actors. Meghan is better at dancing, but unfortunately she can't sing well with her voice, and her temperament is far from the role.
After the movie started filming, Guo Xu's scenes were almost all over again. He was excited when he should be excited, melancholy when he should be melancholy, and his emotions were just right, as if he was the one with the jazz dream in the movie.
The male protagonist went to work in a restaurant, and when he played the piano, he couldn't help but get creative, but the boss thought he was playing blindly, couldn't appreciate his music, and fired his squid.
When he went out, the male protagonist ignored the female protagonist's praise, and the two passed by. The two of them both had explosive acting skills when they were playing, and the director took the lead in applauding after filming, mainly to applaud Guo Xu.
Everyone in the crew knows that Guo Xu's real life is very different from that of the male protagonist, who is he a little person chasing his dreams? He became a star from the moment he entered the NBA, and the starting point was too high. They all think that Guo Xu is a genius actor, what is acting like.
Guo Xu is very well prepared, he has already read the first draft of the script, practiced it seriously in the time loop, and worked out all the plots just like when he was filming "Inception".
He wants to cooperate with Emma tacitly, and it is very simple to enter the play, just act like Garfield. In reality, Garfield and Emma have been in love, and they are still friends after they broke up, blessing each other, just like the relationship between the hero and heroine in the movie.
Emma and Garfield, the pair of CPs, met in the 2010 movie "The Amazing Spider-Man", one is 21 years old and the other is 26 years old.
In 2011, they broke up with their respective boyfriends and girlfriends, and the two became the target of the paparazzi. Emma describes Garfield as a poet, and Garfield says that Emma is like the sun and always makes herself laugh.
This affection lasted for 4 years, and in April 2015, there were rumors that the two broke up. This is probably an important reason why Emma can act well in this movie, she injects her real feelings into the role.
Guo Xu can guess some of her thoughts, do you like poets, just play the hypocrisy......
In reality, Guo Xu will never become a poet, his expression of emotions has always been flat and straightforward, he can rely on material things and never rely on thoughts, and he can rely on his body without words.
This is his last movie before his comeback, "Ace Agent 2" and Matthew Vaughn agreed to make it in 2016, and he attaches great importance to this role and tries to play it perfectly.
Guo Xu is going to rely on this movie to hit the Oscar. The release of "The Martian" at the end of this year is likely to bring him an actor nomination. Next year, "La La Land" will be released, participate in the 2017 Oscar selection, and being nominated again is a continuous nomination, and the judges can't ignore him.
Of course, it is much more difficult for him to win the Oscar than others, it is almost impossible, and he can prove his strength by being shortlisted for two consecutive years. When he doesn't win the award, the 6 billion pot secret will spray the Oscar judges and say shady, which is also quite funny.
