[US Entertainment] The Legend of Shen Nong Heroes

~~~~~ When you are not happy, just eat below~~~~~

Originally, Yuexi planned to invite Mr. Stan Lee to her apartment for dinner after the "Night of Superheroes", but because Jon took the initiative to ask Yuexi to audition, plus the Cannes Film Festival, she had to fly to Europe, so there is only a delay.

The Black Widow in "Iron Man 2" is the first appearance in this series of movies, and it is also the first appearance in a Marvel movie.Although this character has not yet decided to make a movie alone, it will run through the filming plan for at least ten years in the future.

There are many people who come to audition, and the competition is very strong.Many second-generation stars, models with hot bodies, and actresses of the younger generation almost all gathered together.

But according to the information Bryan inquired, the producer most admires now is Emily Blunt. Her performance in "The Devil Wears Prada" is still unforgettable.

Although Yue Xi also has many good films, her roles are very special.Coupled with this fact that she is oriental, she is very disadvantaged.

[We have a lot of white superheroes, we have black vampire hunters, but it's kind of weird that we haven't had blond, black-haired heroes yet.We can see Asians everywhere in our lives, but there are few oriental faces on the big and small screens. Why? ]

Before Yuexi went to audition, Brian paid an online film critic & diehard Marvel fan & Yuexi passerby fan to write such an article.Although Yuexi was not explicitly mentioned in the article, it did provide a humorous critique of the embarrassment of people of color in Hollywood.

In the fashion industry, Asian and oriental elements are very popular, although many of them are designer YY, not so authentic.But their pursuit of the mysterious oriental world is very persistent.

Looking at movies and TV circles, the situation is reversed.There are hundreds of dramas and thousands of movies every year, and the ratio of Asian characters is not even 10%.But Asians are quite entitled in the upper class in the United States. Many celebrities' wives are also Asians, Murdoch, Nicolas Cage, Mark Zuckerberg, Woody Hudson...

Why are Asians so out of place in Hollywood?This question was brought up again.

[We have Bruce Lee, Jack Chen, Kelly Hu, Mulan. ]

[As an American of color with mixed African, Latin American, and Australian aboriginal ancestry, I would like to say, is it necessary to mention blood in the United States, the greatest country in the world? ]

[The promotion of Kung Fu Panda is also in place, we will go to see it, although that panda does not look cute at all, it is a bit uncle. ]

[I don't know what you guys are discussing at all, anyway, it depends on whoever has big breasts. ]

[Upstairs chauvin pig, objectifying women is too abominable! ]

[Everyone's crooked building points are full.I think the reason for the lack of Asian roles is due to the limitations of scripts and themes. After all, there are not many roles that can be provided for them in the current films, and they have to compete with other people, which has caused the scarcity of Asian roles. .However, it is quite normal for a few Asian characters to appear in modern and sci-fi themes. If it is just Marvel and DC, it would be nice to have a little freshness.It depends on what the screenwriter and original author think. ]

Yuexi looked at this article, but felt a little sad.As a Chinese, she really has to thank Charles and Brian for her current achievements.Her starting point is so high, and her successor path is smoother than many others, thanks to the blessings of these two people.But that doesn't mean she hasn't encountered rejection and discrimination, but Yuexi's psychological quality has been getting better and better in recent years, and she won't do anything to tear her face face to face.

This time, Yuexi made up her mind to take the role of Black Widow.Even if she still fails in the end, she will not give up mainstream commercial films.

In the beginning, Yuexi wanted to stick to the line of the literary school, but with the development of the Internet and the film industry, the distinction between commercial films and literary films is no longer so clear.Scarlett has always appeared in literary films before, and her performance in "Iron Man" is very good.

Yuexi felt that she could do it too, and her conditions were not bad at all.Beautiful, sexy, and can play, although it is learned and sold.

The audition is divided into two groups, one group of literary drama and one group of martial arts.In fact, Jon didn't plan to let the actors play in person, but since there are capable players, let them play.It is a good thing to save doubles and special effects and make the shots look smoother.

Literary drama is not difficult for Yue Xi, after all, she is an actor who has been tortured by Charles and David Fincher.And playing scenes is not too difficult for Yue Xi during the training camp, she completed it perfectly.

However, Yue Xi and the directors, screenwriters, and producers present all understood that Yue Xi's truly insurmountable face for this role.

"ie, are you unhappy? If you are unhappy, I will make sweet and sour pork ribs for you." Seeing that Yuexi came back from the audition with a frowning face, Li coaxed him.

"Have you learned how to make sweet and sour pork ribs?" Yue Xi also learned this dish, but she didn't know the ratio of sweet and sour very well, so she handed over the job of mixing the sauce to Li.But she didn't expect that Li would learn it so quickly.

"Well, I made one this afternoon, you can try it." Li opened the refrigerator, brought out the plate of sweet and sour pork ribs to warm up, and then served it to Yue Xi.

During this period of time, Yuexi has been practicing martial arts, and her hands are covered with bruises.Li didn't let her hold the chopsticks by herself, so he fed her a piece with a fork, "How is it?"

"It's so sweet..." Yue Xi chewed a couple of mouthfuls, then smothered her head into Li's arms.Although he has a lot of hair, he basically has no chest hair, so it is still very comfortable to rub.

"Is it sweet?" Li dipped his finger in surprise and licked it, "It's not sweet."

"I mean you." Yue Xi finally smiled, she licked the corner of Li's lips, and then they rolled together again.

***

Yuexi lay in Li's arms, sleeping soundly.In fact, she doesn't like being hugged when she sleeps, it's more comfortable if she can turn over anytime and anywhere.But for some reason, being held in Li's arms like a doll was like taking sleeping pills.Once it's dawn, there is absolutely no problem.

But in the middle of the night, Yue Xi was woken up by a phone call.Her cell phone is never turned off, nor will it be muted.As an actor, you never know when a phone call will come in, and you never know if the call is important or if you miss out on a great movie by not answering the call.

Yue Xi rubbed her eyes, looked at the electronic clock beside the bed, and found that it was only three o'clock in the morning, "Hello, who is it?"

"Oh, Yao'er, there's an earthquake here!" The mother's voice came from there, I don't know if it was because of the signal, there was a lot of noise.

"What?" Yue Xi was still awake, she pressed her temples, trying to activate her brain quickly.

Li also woke up, sat up, took the coat from the bedside table, and put it on for Yue Xi.

"The earthquake scared me to death. The building shook so badly that I almost threw up! Now, your dad and I are going to pick up your grandma and grandpa to your aunt's place. The house in their suburb has only two floors and the terrain is still flat. Let's go Hide away."

"Do you want me to come back?" Yuexi leaned her head on Li's shoulder. She felt that her mother always made a fuss, so she thought it should not be serious.After hanging up the phone, Yuexi curled up in Li's arms and fell asleep again.

Waking up early the next morning, Yuexi remembered the phone call last night, she turned on the computer, and wanted to search for relevant information.When she saw the domestic news reports, she was extremely shocked.I thought it was a small earthquake, but my mother just overreacted.

Yue Xi picked up her cell phone and dialed her landline at home, mom's cell phone, and dad's cell phone, but they didn't work.The more she hit her back, the more her hands trembled, and the tears in her eyes fell uncontrollably, and she didn't even notice it.

"Cynthia, what's the matter?" Li got up to prepare breakfast, but saw Yuexi crying silently with her mobile phone.He walked to Yue Xi's side, half kneeling and hugged her.

"Hmm... near my hometown... there seems to be an earthquake." Yuexi raised her head and looked at Li, "I think... I have to go back to my country."

"Then how are your parents doing now? Have you contacted them?" Li saw the list of outgoing calls on Yuexi's phone and knew that she had already tried to contact her. He also knew that Yuexi was very anxious now, but he was more concerned. I think she will be safe and sound, "I will help you book the air ticket, but is it safe for you to go back now, what is the specific situation, do you want to find out first?"

"I don't know..." Yue Xi really couldn't think now, she looked at those news pictures, feeling extremely worried.

"Let me ask for you." Li immediately took action. Although he was usually rough and nervous, he was very reliable at this moment.He called his friend at the Earthquake Research Center to inquire about the situation of the earthquake, and then called Brian to see if he could contact someone in China to learn more about the current disaster situation.In the end, Li helped Yuexi call the family and friends in her address book again, although it still didn't work.

Yuexi's home was several hundred kilometers away from the epicenter. Although the earthquake felt strong, the damage was not serious. It was just a temporary communication barrier that made Yuexi lose her mind.

In the end Li decided to go back with Yuexi. Although there was no danger, he was still worried.

On the plane back to China, Yuexi didn't sleep, and neither did Li.He let Yuexi lean on his shoulder, and he held Yuexi's hand, silently comforting her emotions.

After more than ten hours of flight, I made another connection.Finally landed, Yuexi finally met her best friend, Xiao Yuan.This Bai Fumei drove a borrowed Land Rover and came to pick him up in person.Because Yue Xi said that her boyfriend is two meters tall, Xiao Yuan's own Lexus is really too small.

"Welcome to Lilliputian." Xiao Yuan burst into laughter the first time she saw Li. She really rarely saw such a tall man.

"Hello." Li learned a few words of Chinese with Yuexi on the plane, and now it's time to practice.

"Chinese is very standard, it seems that you are affectionate enough." Xiao Yuan smiled and bumped into Yuexi, she and Yuexi were friends who grew up watching "The Bank of the Red River" together under the covers.

Yue Xi smiled, unable to speak anymore.Seeing Xiao Yuan so relaxed, she knew her parents must be fine.

Xiao Yuan drove to Aunt Yuexi's house, which is a villa garden community on the outskirts of the city, quiet and green environment is also very good.

But the closer he got to the destination, the more nervous Li became, and then he realized that he seemed to be meeting Yuexi's parents.
