[American Entertainment] Born to be passionate

Edmundo kept hanging on Keanu's neck, raised the corners of his mouth lazily, and then poked his nose with his fingertips: "I thought you won't have time soon after signing the contract with Warner, that's it A film with Al Pacino."

"Yeah, I signed it, but that's not the time to start shooting, and even the first script study meeting is scheduled for two months later." Keanu put his arm around his waist cooperatively, "And it's like I said, this is my vacation, I have the right to decide where to go."

"Of course you have—"

Just when only the other party was in their eyes and the rest of the staff disappeared, Alicia with a green prop on her arm rolled her eyes and came out, she cleared her throat loudly, and then yelled at Edmondo : "Okay, don't be so sticky, there will be time in the evening to let your lips stick together, or even stick together in other places, now move your ass in so we can start filming!"

"It looks like someone is jealous." Edmondo turned back and teased Alicia, then he let go of Keanu, and then helped him straighten his neckline, "You have to wait for me in the rest area, or--if you If you have enough energy, you can also come to the set and watch from the sidelines, but there are no extra chairs ready."

Keanu chose the second option. He said that he slept for more than ten hours on the plane, and now he is not in good spirits, but Alicia is a little dissatisfied.

"I'm serious, Eddie, are you just letting him in to watch? What if he leaks the plot when the time comes." The blonde girl twirled the prop gun on her wrist and said, "He's not from the crew, and No confidentiality treaty was signed."

Edmondo gave her a kindly disapproving look.

"He is a family member, and the family members have the absolute right to visit the class, and the family members will not leak information to the media, right?" After getting Keanu's affirmative answer, Edmondo touched the top of Alicia's head to comfort her, "And I don't think he could have guessed our plot without reading the script—look at our scenes, more than half of them are green screen, and after adding special effects, it's a completely different effect."

Alicia reluctantly compromised, in fact, she did so purely because the impression of Keanu Reeves stayed in the silly mushroom-headed boy in "Bill and Ted Adventures".

Edmondo walked into the set first, and Leslie Cheung, who was hanging in the air, gave him the middle finger without any image.

"We have to get this scene done quickly, I don't want to be hung on it all the time," he said, "It's more torture than learning moves from a martial arts instructor."

"You sound quite confident, Leslie, but the bad news is that even if you can go through this scene, you will be hung on it for at least a week." Edmondo said, walked to his director's seat and sat down. And turn on the headset, then adjust the screen in front of you to the best angle, "Are you all ready? Max? Hill? Leslie? And Mick, B and Tz (all photographers), how is the lighting? ?”

"No problem here!"

"Ok."

"Ready, anytime."

Actors, photographers, lighting engineers, and all the sideline staff told him that he could continue, so Edmondo raised his hand to signal the scene director to come to the camera with a marked board: "Scene 33, 13 shots, the first time - Action!"

……

This is not the first time Keanu has seen Edmundo at work, but it is the first time he sees it from the perspective of a bystander. Perhaps because of the filter, he does not feel how much Edmundo is. Harsh, even when the nearby staff were whispering to each other he had the urge to interject to tell them how wrong that perception was.

The filming is still going on. Judging from the performances of the actors, this should be a scene in which the protagonist group has suffered setbacks. The character played by Alicia is almost unable to hold on. At a critical moment, the protagonist played by Leslie Cheung disregarded the danger of his arm being scrapped. stopped her.It looks like an amazing action scene, but in fact, by disabling a few movements and expressions, the characters can be shaped more three-dimensionally. This is Edmondo's best method.

"It's far from the time to give up! Grab my fucking arm!" the actor shouted with all his strength, "We haven't made it to the top 4 yet, we can't fall here!"

With the cooperation of the rear blower and the matching sound, even without the cool special effects, the scene is quite similar, and at this moment, Edmondo called a timeout. This is the sixth time he has asked them to stop .

"Hill, did I say that this scene Senna (Alicia's character) is not reconciled, she knows that she has failed, and she knows that she is going to die, she just gave up because she didn't think there was a possibility of turning over , but she didn't accept her failure, can you understand what I mean? You were almost there when you took the last shot, but there was a little problem with the movement, but recently the two faces are not right emotionally , I can’t demonstrate it to you on this, so—”

"Leslie, uh, this one of yours is not as good as the last one. Are you tired and need to rest? You made Yun Qi look like he was going to give up the current situation, and he saved the team just because he had to. Be more passionate, this This is your only chance for revenge! You must win! You must get the key to the upper realm!"

"I'm sorry, Max, you are great, you don't need to make any big moves in this shot, continue to be the background board, don't stress."

"Okay, I've finished talking about this question, are you clear? Do you need me to say it again?"

Everyone: "No need, sir."

Edmondo returned to his director's seat, and instead of relaxing and leaning in this time, he leaned forward with his elbows on his knees and stared intently at the screen.

"Then do it again!" He waved his hand to signal the director to come forward, "Act 33, 13 shots, 9th time——Action!"

It took them a whole day to shoot this part to barely achieve the effect Edmondo wanted, that is to say, Leslie Cheung, who played the male lead, was dropped in the air for a whole day, and Alicia, who played the team member, was also cut off the rope and fell from the air The footage that came down cycled through the day.

After work, Alicia, who finally got rid of the fate of "slapping the street", rolled her eyes countless times at the director, "Damn it, next time someone tells me how charming you are, I'll throw this tidbit in his face, you It’s like a madman of Virgo, I will never cooperate with you again, and I will not do it for money!”

After venting, she left without looking back, shaking her loose blond hair. She is not the person with the most resentment here. Leslie Cheung, who was hung in the air with her, has just unlocked all the locks and took off the special effects suit to return to normal. People, their legs are soft when they step on the ground, like stepping on cotton candy. He didn't complain too much to Edmundo, and soon left the set. Edmundo guessed that he was too tired to talk.

"That's so cool! I can't wait to see what the finished product looks like, a sci-fi masterpiece, I can guarantee that people will go crazy for this movie!" Keanu came from the side and praised, and then passed the snack in his hand, "Here You, I think you should replenish your energy before going back."

Edmondo put down the storyboard, looked up and saw Keanu holding two Mickey Mouse balloons in his left hand and two giant marshmallows in his right hand. The funny picture made him want to laugh.

"Where did you get these?" he asked, taking a marshmallow.

"Just at the door, there is an old man who is selling it. I think many young people are buying it." Keanu smiled and replied, "The dinner I had before has been digested, and I guess you are too, so use this to supplement, otherwise Eating too much at night will make you fat."

How much energy the marshmallow can add, but even if it doesn't make sense, Edmundo took the stick and tore off a large piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

Sometimes these lovers around him are really more naive than one.

"Let's go." Edmondo took his arm, showing an ambiguous | ambiguous smile, "Let's go back and do some physical exercise, otherwise the cotton candy will be wasted."

……

Back on the set the next day, Edmundo seemed a little depressed and yawned a lot before shooting, so he went to the bathroom to use cold water to stabilize himself before filming started, and Leslie Cheung happened to be there, so he reluctantly yawned. Hello.

"What's the matter, did you quarrel with someone?" Leslie Cheung asked with concern after wiping his hands, "Or did you not sleep well last night because of someone's sudden visit?"

"Uh—didn't sleep well." Edmund replied while massaging his swollen eyelids. "I thought that someone who just got off the plane wouldn't have so much energy. He made me hurt."

Um?This topic has moved in the direction of adults.

"Did he hurt you?" Leslie Cheung repeated, "But you—we just met at the gate 10 minutes ago, and you acted so normally that it was completely invisible."

"Yeah, yeah, because the pain is in the front." Edmondo replied slightly annoyed, pushing his long hair back, "For some reason, he insisted on letting me sit on the bathroom table, saying To be honest, the view is good, but he really can't use his mouth, his teeth touched me several times, and he also enjoyed my 'ss!', does 'ss!' sound like enjoyment?"

This question was a bit beyond the scope of his explanation, Leslie Cheung opened his mouth, and found that he didn't know how to comfort him at all.

Fortunately, someone rescued him.

"Brother, look at this!" His assistant hurriedly rushed into the bathroom with a newspaper, "The group of unscrupulous paparazzi are starting to make up things again!"

Leslie Cheung spread out the newspaper for a look, and the headline was printed in bold and bold.

【Hollywood famous prodigal director came to Hong Kong to film a movie, and the object was Hong Kong entertainment king Leslie Cheung? ! 】

There are a few pictures below, the square one is a photo of the two eating snacks at the night market together a few months ago, and the two above with explosion|explosion shape = lace are photos of the two people exchanging plots in the crew recently, because Because of the angle, it looks unusually intimate.

"...Leave them alone, just wait for a reporter to respond indifferently." Leslie Cheung's mouth twitched, and these paparazzi seemed to recognize Edmundo as the one above because of his height advantage, "Eddie, Look at the news—do you need to talk to your agent in Los Angeles, although the newspaper is only here, but I heard that newspapers from various countries sometimes trade photos with each other.”

Edmondo leaned over to take a look, he couldn't read the text but he could understand the photos, he blinked: "The reporters here are not very good at taking pictures, this one, this one makes me look ugly."

"... Is this your focus?" Leslie Cheung shook his head helplessly, "They wrote you into my story and formed a bloody love triangle. Of course, I will not be affected. The people here I'm used to them making up stories, but I don't know if Hollywood will believe me."

"Relax, it will take a month for this news to reach Hollywood, don't worry." Edmondo waved his hand, he looked much more energetic than before, "When will my grumpy agent It's never too late for someone to call me and explain. Now -- let's go back to the field and hang you up again and see how many times this shot takes."

The expression on Leslie Cheung's face suddenly became difficult. He returned the newspaper to his assistant and waved him to go back. Afterwards, he and Edmondo returned to the set and sorted out the plot on the way.

Keanu Reeves sat in a chair in the corner, looking dejected, and it was clear that Edmundo hadn't let himself be wronged by giving him all the news that one of his techniques was horribly bad.

Edmondo couldn't bear to see him like this, so he came up with an idea to make him happy.

"Kiki, come here!" He ticked his fingers at Keanu, "Would you like to play a cameo in this movie, and the reward is to let me teach you how to keep your teeth from touching the wall tonight, how about it, this deal its not bad, right?"
