Chapter 420 [Speaking of dedication, super power out of control]
Leonardo told everyone about the unfortunate events he encountered while filming this movie.
Director James Cameron wanted to get the most realistic shooting effect, so he thought of a way to make the water in the tank as cold as the water in the Atlantic Ocean in the early morning. The actors and staff were almost killed by him.
Seeing that Fei Wen was about to freeze to death, Little Plum thoughtfully put a coat on her in the water. Cameron transformed into a thunder warrior and sprayed Little Plum violently... This is what Yang Jian said, this is true.
The actors' trembling bodies and expressions were the real effects that Cameron wanted, and everyone was an experientialist.
When people are frozen, it is difficult to concentrate on acting. And once a shot is not shot well because the actor is too cold, and mistakes are made, then the shot will have to be retaken.
Cameron won't pay attention to this, so the male and female protagonists are all afraid of Cameron. As long as someone can't get the effect he wants, or something is not good enough, he will use his Yang Finger and Lion's Roar Kung Fu.
Due to being immersed in ice water for a long time, many actors and staff, including Fei Wen, suffered from colds, flu and even kidney infections.
Later, a vicious incident occurred on the crew. During the filming, a staff member poured pentachlorophenol into the soup that everyone was drinking at night. As a result, more than 50 actors and staff were sent to the hospital for treatment.
Cameron also drank it at that time, and he immediately used various methods to induce vomiting. His eyes were red and bloodshot, just like the robot Terminator in his famous work, which looked quite scary.
The director is so bad that the staff couldn't help but poison him. Cameron is the only one in the world.
"She knows what it's like to act in ice water." Yang Jian pointed at Naomi. "She also acted like this in the last play. I asked her to change it to warm water, but she was still unwilling."
Naomi smiled and said: "If I acted like that, the effect wouldn't be as good. I can bear this crime, and the time is not very long. The filming was completed in two days."
"Two days isn't long? You don't have to worry about freezing your body. This is just a commercial film. It can't win awards. It's really not worth your efforts." Yang Jian sighed. "Don't do such stupid things in the future."
In the parallel world, Naomi has played many roles that make people feel dedicated. She worked extremely hard on "Tsunami" and ultimately did not win the Oscar for Best Actress. Yang Jian plans to let her play some roles that do not require hardship and may win awards.
roles, the two of them accidentally spilled the beans.
Leonardo asked: "Is it that horror movie? I watched the news."
"Yes, I think you two can work together if there is a chance in the future, and we will definitely get along well in filming." Yang Jian gave Naomi a line by the way.
Most of Leonardo's movies have a good reputation, and there are many outstanding actresses who have collaborated with him. Naomi's acting skills are very good, and their cooperation is considered a strong alliance. Everyone is in the same circle of friends and has good roles.
There is no reason to take advantage of outsiders.
What's interesting is that at this time, neither of them had much confidence in their future, and they couldn't imagine how popular they would be in the future. In this circle, Yang Jian is the biggest star, with real legs.
Not to mention Tobey Maguire, who is completely unpopular. He was embarrassed to be invited by Yang Jian to participate in the SuperSonics championship party. He felt like a husky who had blended into the wolf pack.
Leonardo was silent for a while, but still planned to play "The Man in the Iron Mask". Although he didn't like the story background or plot very much, he didn't want to give himself a long vacation.
"Leon, if there is a movie with a smaller investment cost than "The Man in the Iron Mask" but with an interesting role, would you be willing to star in it?" Yang Jian thought for a moment and decided to give Leonardo another choice.
"What type of role?" Leonardo asked.
"The male protagonist is a nerd, a shy high school student with low self-esteem, who is very unsociable among his peers. He is often bullied by boys and ostracized by girls in school. He is always teased by gangsters outside school, and his life is quite uncomfortable.
"Yang Jian began to tell the story.
"Okay, then what?" Leonardo became interested. He liked this kind of awkward role.
"The male protagonist's family situation is very special. His father used to be a firefighter, but after losing his job due to a work injury, he relied on relief funds to survive. His mother is seriously ill and paralyzed in bed, and may die soon."
Leonardo was even more interested. This character design was simply miserable, which was beneficial to his acting skills. It was so miserable, it was simply the standard for future talent shows, and the kind that the out-of-tune singing instructors also collectively passed.
"The male protagonist's father is very unreliable. His son's tuition fees and his wife's medical expenses make him have no motivation for life. He likes to drink and beat the male protagonist to vent his dissatisfaction with reality. In this environment, it is inevitable that the male protagonist's heart will be broken
Being affected, no matter how handsome you are, you will develop an inferiority complex."
Leonardo smiled and said: "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Yang Jian continued to tell the story. "Fortunately, the male protagonist's cousin is a considerate and good person. He didn't want to see him live so depressed, so he invited him to a party to make friends."
"Sounds good. Is the heroine about to appear?" Leonardo asked.
"No, the male protagonist is a person who has never seen the world. When he arrived at the party, he took out his most precious camera, which he bought with money saved from working, and took random pictures. Others were having fun, but he actually took pictures of them. It was so rude.
Well, he got beaten up."
Leonardo smiled and said: "Okay, this character has quite a personality. What is the theme of the story?"
"Now I should talk about the theme. At this time, my cousin's good friend Toby came to the hero. He just went out with his cousin and discovered an unnatural phenomenon. The hero needs a camera to record this strange thing. Toby
Bi drove the male protagonist to find his cousin, who found a cave in the woods and strange noises came from inside."
Tobey Maguire asked: "Is there a role for me too?"
"Well, of course you will have a role in this movie." Yang Jian said with a smile: "The three of them are typical American youths. They dared to commit suicide and went down into the cave together. They found the source of the mysterious sound, and together they emitted a strange light.
The big crystal. Toby stepped forward and touched the crystal and something happened. The crystal emitted red light and energy, and they were all radiated."
Leonardo interrupted: "Wait a minute, isn't this an ethical drama? Why did it suddenly become a science fiction film?"
"Did I say this is an ordinary drama? That's so boring. I guarantee this story will be more interesting than "The Man in the Iron Mask" or "Louis XIV."
Leonardo made a gesture of invitation. "You continue to speak."
"They fainted, and when they woke up, it was a blessing in disguise. They also gained superpowers. They had the power to move objects through the air and change the shape of objects. Moreover, the three of them also had telepathy and could sense each other's position.
, emotions. Their relationship has become even better, and they have become a friendship that wears a pair of pants, and they study superpowers together every day."
"At first, they just used their super powers to make pranks, lifting girls' skirts, playing tricks on restaurant waiters, etc. Later, they went overboard with their fun. On the highway, the male protagonist was upset by the driver behind him who was honking his horn wildly.
The ability caused the car behind to fall into the river. The driver was rescued by his cousin and Toby, and the hero's mentality began to change."
"Later, the three people's superpowers were continuously upgraded and developed to the point where they could fly. Cousin and Toby kept a low profile as usual, and made a three-part agreement with the male protagonist, saying that they would not use their powers for ordinary people and hide their abilities. But the male protagonist's
The character flaw is very serious and gradually begins to get out of control."
Yang Jian told the three of them a wonderful story - "Super Out of Control"!
This is a movie he liked very much in his previous life. The plot is simple and reflects some social issues. The psychological harm caused by poor native families to their children, the ubiquitous bullying on campuses in the United States, and the weak who cannot bear it and resort to extreme behavior to bullies.
Revenge etc.
Weak and cowardly people cannot suddenly gain great power, otherwise they will only destroy themselves.
Yang Jian believed that Leonardo would like the role of the male protagonist and it would be easy for him to demonstrate his acting skills.
