[US Entertainment] Superstar

Huang Yiyu hurried back to the set and announced loudly: "Attention everyone, tonight's shooting has been cancelled. Go back to the hotel and have a good rest, and prepare for tomorrow morning's shooting."

It is very difficult to rewrite the follow-up script in one night, but the more he does this, the more he feels like challenging himself.

Mobilize the whole body, not only to modify the role of Claire, but also to modify other characters.

Eve didn't know what happened at this time, and she had no idea what kind of changes her role would usher in.

Neither the director nor the producer has told everyone the truth of the matter, and will only announce it after the script is confirmed to be correct.

Devon said excitedly: "Great, I can finally rest for a night!"

"Retire tonight?" Alarm bells rang in Eve's mind, "What time is it today?"

When Keanu meets Keanu in Chinatown, the musical man invites Eve to join them on their Sirius New York tour.At that time, Eve thought that she would be busy shooting night scenes after returning to New York, so she gave an ambiguous reply.

Originally, the filming schedule was very tight, but now a night was suddenly vacated, and she silently prayed that the tour must be staggered from this time, tomorrow or the day after.

It was only when they met each other before that there was a scandal, but now if they were photographed going to the Sirius tour concert, wouldn't the rumors be confirmed.

Eve opened the bag on the chair, and there was a text message from Keanu Reeves lying in the phone, which was sent when they met in Los Angeles last week. It contained information about the time and location of the New York tour.

"August 8 at The Rock Shop in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York at 5pm..."

Indeed, tonight, the Sirius band had just finished performing at the Glastonbury Music Festival in the UK with tens of thousands of people. After returning to the United States, they could only perform at the bar livehouse. The gap in the number of audiences was too great!

This band basically has no reputation. Eve guessed that it might be Keanu's face that they were able to perform at the music festival. Maybe they went to the hot spot to perform for the early audience before the rest of the ace bands entered the venue. , so that the audience will not be bored, commonly known as the opening singer.

Now that they have been invited, Eve decided to go to see the band's performance tonight and relax at the bar by the way.

Anyway, the lights in the bar are relatively dim, and there must be a lot of people inside, so no one will notice me by then.

The place where the crew is now is almost close to New Jersey, so to avoid being late, she plans to go back to the hotel quickly to change clothes and then take a taxi to Brooklyn.

"Eve, do you have free time now?" Huang Yiyu's face was solemn, he planned to chat with Claire's actors and listen to their opinions.

"Of course." Eve stood up from the chair, she didn't know what the director wanted for her.

Huang Yiyu smiled, "Relax, I just want to know what you think of Claire. If you want to modify the script, how do you think Claire should change it?"

After hearing this, Eve had an idea in her heart, and she secretly guessed, could it be that the quarrel between the big shots in the crew was focused on the role of Claire?Even for this role, tonight's shooting was canceled directly.

"In my opinion, Claire is a sensitive and independent person. Even if she is threatened by death, she will not fall in love with Alex so easily, and when the high-voltage cables are raging, she is actually able to escape. , not as flustered as in the description. Knowing the danger outside, she still ran out; the high-voltage cable was blown wildly by the strong wind, but she panicked and wanted to climb the iron stairs outside the house to escape, these were not mistakes she should have made. "

When Huang Yiyu and Morgan wrote the role of Claire, they didn't think too much about it. They just habitually added a beautiful female character in horror movies, and asked the hero to save the beauty.

But after arriving on the set, he found that Eve played Claire very well, with all kinds of small details.Who said women in horror-thrillers are just cumbersome?

The villain of "Death is Coming" has never shown up. The horror effect brought about by this innovative shooting method is more obvious, and the characters are relatively weak.

Since there is an opportunity to create a classic female character, why not try it?

Iconic characters will make fans and audiences more discussable and memorable, and it will be much more convenient and trouble-free to start sequels in the future.

Huang Yiyu is very satisfied with this answer. It seems that he is not alone in thinking this way, and the actors also have similar thoughts.

He doesn't think it's a big deal to revise the script. It has been revised several times in a small area before, but it's not as large and wide-ranging as this time.

The scope of changes to the script has never been a problem, the key to the problem is whether the changes can be made reasonably.As long as it is reasonable, the modification is not a big deal.

It just so happens that the producers, directors, screenwriters, and art directors of the crew are not self-willed, and it is easier to communicate, and everything depends on the effect of the new script.

If the effect of the revised script is not good, it will not be adopted even if it is said to be extravagant.

After watching the director leave, the leading actor Devin said enviously: "Congratulations, this is a good thing. But it's a bit bad for me. I also have to recite the script and lines."

After Claire's character can solve problems by himself, the demand for the male protagonist will naturally decrease, and Alex will not be asked to rescue him again, nor will there be love.

Invisibly, Devin's role will be reduced a lot, but he doesn't look uncomfortable at all, so he readily accepts it.

"You shouldn't have to grab the high-voltage cable with your bare hands. It's probably the only benefit." Eve said with a playful humor. Now she just feels a lot of pressure on her body.

Everyone will be happy if "Death Comes" succeeds. If it fails at the box office, her character who changed the script halfway through filming will most likely become the one who takes the blame.

Eve doesn't know why things turned out like this. If the heroine's setting is changed, how much impact will it have on the box office?

She prayed silently in her heart, now she doesn't know whether the movie can get the same good box office figures as in her previous life.

Originally, there was no pressure to act in this movie. As a person in the future, I know that it has a good box office and a good reputation, and there are even four sequels. Now Eve has almost no prediction of the future.

"Forget it, let's get drunk today, don't think about these things that are too far away." Eve shakes her negative emotions out of her head, even if "Death Comes" hits the box office, she still has "The Girl Who Moved Soul", It's not like there are no scenes to shoot.

……

It cost her eighty dollars to take a taxi from the small town to the city. If she hadn't signed a role with a salary of 20 dollars, Eve really wouldn't have been so generous.

The Brooklyn Bridge at night looked quite beautiful, and it was the first time for Eve to see the night scene in New York, everything was so fresh.

This area has always been known for its poor law and order, but the place she is going to is not in a black gathering place, but in a white community on the Park Slope side.

The bar space where the Sirius band performed was located on the side of the street. At this time, there was already a long queue outside, and the queue outside was almost all girls.These girls all looked excited, some were single, and some were dragging their boyfriends, as if they were about to go on a pilgrimage.

Where there are many girls, there is no shortage of boys, and the bar business is so good that many people can't even enter.

"Hey, the Keanu show is about to start, when will we get in?"

"What's going on today? Lots of hot girls."

"Don't you know? Keanu Reeves' band is going to be on stage soon."

"Fortunately I bought tickets in advance."

"Keanu has a band? Does he sing?"

"He's with me, can he go in?"

Beautiful women are all privileged. Eve originally thought that she was going to queue at the back of the line, but the security guard at the door took a look at her and directly greeted her to pay the $20 entrance fee to go in.

It was the first time for Eve to come to this kind of place, so she restrained her curiosity and didn't look around. She followed the people in front of her down the stairs, and then a spacious basement appeared in front of her eyes, with a small entrance, but there was a hole in the sky!

The super large space of about five or six hundred square meters is already overcrowded, and the bartenders at the bar are sweating profusely, taking care of the customers inside and out.There was obviously no one on the stage in the distance, but crazy fans had already gathered below the stage.

Not to mention chairs, there are very few places to stand.

When the band is not performing, the DJ is playing music on it, like a dance of demons.

Eve thought that the Sirius band was not popular, and that it would not be very popular to go on tour in a bar, but in the end, she forgot that there was a bug called Keanu in the band.

Even if he's just a bass player, even if he doesn't even sing backing vocals, he's still an A-list star.Most of the audience below came for Keanu, and only a few came to listen to the song.

For fans, watching him stand on stage and play bass is a treat!

Eve found a corner and stood there. She took out her mobile phone and dialed Keanu's number.

The sound of "beep beep beep" rang in my ears, I don't know if the other party can hear the ringtone in such a noisy environment.

"Hey, you finally called." Keanu's deep voice came from the phone.

"It just so happens that the crew is on vacation tonight, so I thought about coming over to see your concert."

Keanu heard the music from the phone, and he asked, "Have you arrived at the bar yet? I'll come out to pick you up."

Eve was startled when she heard the words, and quickly refused: "No, no, don't come out. If you come out, the whole bar will explode!"

"OK, then I'll ask the tour manager to pick you up. Can you find a conspicuous place to stand now?" Keanu was holding the bass, and now he put the baby bass on the dressing table.

He patted the chunky tour manager on the shoulder, "Doug, can you go to the bar and help me pick someone up backstage? It's not convenient for me to go out."

Keanu also knew that if he went out, he would probably be surrounded by fans and never come back.

Doug turned around and asked curiously, "Who?"

"The last time we met in the car repair shop, it was the blonde Eve. Remember?"

Speaking of this, the other two members of the band suddenly became energetic.

Lead singer Rob immediately put down the beer bottle in his hand, "No wonder you didn't give me your mobile phone number last time, that's why."

"Hey, Rob, do you remember before we went to England last week? A reporter asked him about the scandal. It seemed that he had a date with a girl for dinner. Could it be this Eve?"

Facing the jokes from his friends, Keanu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's that Eve, but I'm not in a relationship with her. She happened to be filming in New York, so I stopped by to see the concert today."

"understood."

"I totally understand. You just want to ask her out, right?" Drummer Brett walked up to Keanu, "There are still women who can resist the charm of your face. It seems that she doesn't like your type."

While they were joking with each other, Eve followed Doug backstage.

The powder room is small, with vanity mirrors on both sides of the wall.

Standing in the room with a height of 185cm, Keanu felt like a giant, and if he was [-]cm taller, he would hit the roof.

Since I have seen it so many times, Eve was not hypocritical, walked over to give Keanu a hug, and said with a smile: "I suggest that you must open a bigger venue next time, as there are many spectators outside who can't get in. "

"Thank you for coming here tonight. You look so beautiful today!" Keanu praised. He grew up with a fashion designer mother, and he still can't make mistakes in his vision.

Eve is wearing a light blue gauze dress tonight, with her hair draped over her shoulders, looking elegant and fairy-like.

Rob suddenly held out his hand from the side, "Hi, I'm Rob. Last time I saw you at the garage, remember me?"

"Of course I remember you. The Halo you sang was very good, but I didn't find it in the video store. Has it not been released yet?" Eve also tried to find the Sirius album when she went to buy the new Superboy album, but No record store owner knew such a band existed, let alone find an album.

Keanu explained: "That song is the first song of our new album "Happy Ending". The album has not been finished yet, and I don't know when it will be released."

This band itself is of a playful nature. It has been established for so long before it released a studio album "Our Little Visionary", and the second album is still in production.

Eve doesn't have much appreciation for rock music, she just came to join in the fun.

Brett continued to assist his friend: "You are the first girl Keanu invited to the concert. I thought he didn't like being seen playing bass."

"Really? That's really my honor!" Eve was very face-saving, feeling flattered.

Before Keanu could answer, the staff at the bar knocked on the door and walked in: "Sirius Band, are you ready? Next, it's time for you to shine on stage. Everyone has been waiting for a long time."

Doug is the tour manager who is responsible for handling these things. He nodded repeatedly, "It will be ready soon, and you can enter the venue after being introduced by your DJ."

While picking up the bass, Keanu said to Eve: "You can be with Doug later, and he will take you to the edge of the stage."

"No problem, I wish you a smooth performance!"

Eve watched the Sirius band walk out of the backstage one by one after being introduced by the DJ. Rob and Brett in front didn't have much applause.

But when it was Keanu's turn, the DJ just said the word "bassist", and the audience screamed one after another.

This is obviously already a norm, and if it weren't for Keanu, there might be only a handful of people who know the Sirius band.

The influence of first-line stars cannot be underestimated!

Not only girls, but even some men yelled excitedly, and many even called him Neo, presumably because they watched too many movies.

As long as Keanu stands on the stage, he can attract the attention of all audiences without even saying a word.

To the disappointment of many fans who came to hear the news, there was no microphone in front of Keanu, which proved that he really just played the bass and could not sing.

Standing beside Eve, Doug said with emotion: "According to Keanu's popularity, even if there is a concert at Madison Square Garden, the tickets can be sold out. He really enjoys this opportunity to get in close contact with the audience." .”

"It's good like this. If the venue is too big, you won't be able to see people at all." Eve, a fake fan, began to shake his head to the sound of the drums, obviously not knowing what the song was about.

To be honest, lead singer Rob's voice is not that outstanding, his singing skills are acceptable, and his live vocal is pretty good, but lacks recognition, but it is more than enough for touring in bars.

Eve stood on the edge of the stage, staring at Keanu, who bowed his head and concentrated on playing the instrument. She said to herself, "Why is every band a bassist so handsome?"

In many people's minds, a bass player is a fat guy who always plays in the back.Because in the whole band, the bass is the instrument with the least sense of presence, because their low-frequency vibrations are difficult to detect.

In fact, Paul McCartney of the Beatles, Guy Berryman of Coldplay, Zach Falkens of the Republic, Duff McKehan ​​of Guns and Roses, etc., are all famous handsome guy.Now Eve has decided to add Keanu's name to the list.

In the [-]-square-meter bar area, the rock music almost shook the eardrums. When the bass beats with the drums, the music is like a jet engine, and the drums hit the heart intensively.

Eve saw the audience at the scene, who were obviously strangers, hugging their shoulders and shaking their heads together, waving their arms unscrupulously, and roaring excitedly from their throats.

This is just an ordinary band performance. If it were the Rolling Stones, Eagles, Queen, AC/DC, the venue would blow up!

As expected, rock and roll can only be felt when you listen to it live. Even if the sound is broken or out of tune, the atmosphere of the scene makes Eve, a layman, unable to help but get excited, and all senses are deeply shocked.

I really need to come out to relax after hard filming every day, otherwise my nerves will always be tense and the mental pressure will be too great.

Eve had already forgotten about Keanu on the stage, her body swayed back and forth with the rhythm of the music, and the audience clapped along with the drumbeat.

She was a little restrained and embarrassed at first, but she was infected by the atmosphere later on, and no one was watching what she was doing.

The pressure on her body disappeared, and all the tension and anxiety disappeared without a trace, as if the purest and most energetic Eve appeared again!

"Death is Coming" and "The Girl Who Moved the Soul" are works that can leave a few words in the history of Hollywood movies. In fact, Eve is under a lot of psychological pressure. She is always worried that she will disappoint the audience, film critics, and producers.

Therefore, I hold back my energy every day, wanting to show my best state, like a compressed spring.

If this state lasts too long, there will be a sharp rebound one day.

But this time the live performance relieved her tense heart, and all her troubles were swept away.

Fuck the movie, f*ck the filming!

Although her throat hurt a bit from howling, the negative emotions in her heart were emptied, and she came back to life. This trip was worth it!
