Chapter 1411 1411 The Boss Supervises the Work

"My role is not that fast, I just want to come and see, and then make a special trip to visit you." Will always said sincerely with a friendly smile on his face, which makes it easy for people to have a good impression, "That's right. , I played Russell. Casse, and we had some opposite scenes in the movie."

Russell Keyes, the man who sacrificed himself at the last moment of the movie and detonated the alien spaceship over the city. This is also a very important role. Although he is not the protagonist, in the original script, the role is not inferior to the importance of the role. The so-called male protagonist Steve, who once participated in the Vietnam War, claimed to have been captured by aliens. After returning, he was immersed in alcohol and could not extricate himself. Later, when the earth was in crisis, he took courage and became a part of saving the earth. The company handed the role to Will, apparently optimistic about his prospects as well.

But what's interesting is that Hugo originally thought that after he played the leading role, Will would not get the chance for him to make a big splash, and the story could easily become a routine for a group of white people to save the earth, but Roland actually Setting Russell as black makes the whole story whole again.

"It seems that we need to have a good talk. You have a lot of important work on your shoulders." Hugo nodded solemnly and said. Will was stunned, and then he realized that Hugo was talking about Russell. character, but also saying that Russell will steal a lot of the light that belongs to Steve.

Hugo's mockery and self-deprecation made Will clapp his hands and laugh, pointing at Hugo, "Hey man, you're such a humorous man."

Seeing Will, who laughed too exaggeratedly, Hugo and Sandra looked at each other, Sandra pointed to Will, who was overjoyed, and said solemnly, "If this compliment came from a certain woman, wouldn't it be? Would it make you happier? Or do you want Cameron to say that?" Then Sandra shrugged, "Man, you know, I can help if you need it."

Sandra directly put her arms around Hugo's shoulders, "Hey, man, you are such a humorous man."

"Why do I think I'm being teased. What's the play?" Hugo held his chin and fell into deep thinking, and Will had laughed until his stomach hurt, Hugo waved to the staff next to him, "I think he I need medical help." Now even Sandra couldn't hold back, she burst out laughing, and Hugo's eyes were rounded by the woman's spittle that day, "Hey! Lady!"

In return, Hugo was rewarded with a punch from Sandra.

"It seems that everyone is getting along very well, which is good news for us, right, Hugo?" A sunny and cheerful voice came on the face, looked up, and saw Alan Strey Luo strode forward. He was wearing an iron-gray suit today.

Will and Sandra looked back and saw Alan, and immediately cheered up. At the opening ceremony, they all knew that Alan was the real behind-the-scenes boss of "Independence Day". The power of life and death. And Allen is different from Kevin Burns. He is not a part of the film industry. He is a simple businessman. Such a person needs to be vigilant the most-because he does not understand the operation mode of the industry, the only thing that can impress him is Profit, to put it uglier, is that a layman knows nothing about it. So dealing with Allen can't follow common sense, and it's no wonder that Will and Sandra are cautious.

Hugo saw Allen for the first time, and he also noticed the tension of the two people around him - the relaxed and lively atmosphere just now had clearly settled down, "I think it's good news for the actors." Hugo He said with a chuckle that he had been in contact with Allen twice, and felt that Allen's personality was relatively bright and easy to get along with, but Hugo also knew that this was also because they had no conflict of interest with Allen at present. For a businessman like Lun, the true personality is hidden and only revealed when a conflict of interest arises.

"Of course, it would be even better if there were some small benefits, for example, the big boss came to visit the class," Hugo looked at Will and Sandra. Although they both still had smiles on their faces, they were still very active. It has dropped significantly. "For example, when the big boss comes to visit the class, he invites us to drink coffee and eat donuts."

Hugo was joking, because he didn't expect Allen to visit the scene at all. Behind-the-scenes investment bosses like Allen, because they don't know anything about the film industry, more often hire a professional producer to give orders for him on the spot. For example, Allen entrusted 20th Century Fox with full authority On their own, they don't have much interest in the set.

The reason why Hugo said this was actually to make fun of Allen's worry about the crew, and he personally went to the scene to supervise. This is obviously a manifestation of the businessman's suspicion. Of course, Hugo's meaning is more obscure.

He didn't want to, but Allen laughed and patted his head, "Look at my memory, you can't always be empty-handed when visiting the class, right?" Allen smiled self-deprecatingly, then turned back to a black suit standing beside him and said Arrived, "Billy, hurry up and order takeout now. You go and ask how many staff members Roland has on site. In addition to coffee and donuts, order some pizza. I think it's almost noon."

Allen's response made Hugo a little overwhelmed. He just said it casually... Hugo looked at Sandra who was standing by the side, and the two exchanged a helpless look, and Will next to him also Making a face, Hugo almost laughed.

"I watched the filming just now. It seems that everything went very well today. How about it? Do you have any special feeling to be involved in the new filming?"

This made Hugo stunned for a moment. Has Alan appeared on the crew from the beginning? Then hide and watch the shoot? Hugo was shocked. He didn't know that this was a common move by commercial film investors. For example, today was the first day of filming in the studio. They went to the scene to supervise, or it was Allen's own insistence. Hugo has been rolling around in Hollywood for a few years now, but this is the first time he has encountered such a situation.

"Uh..." Hugo took a rough look around, and found that due to Aaron's appearance, Roland, Sergio and others were standing a few steps away, hesitant to come forward to disturb, you can see that , they were also very surprised, "I don't feel comfortable, you know, I have no experience with green screen performances, everything is new, and I was a little overwhelmed when I started shooting," Hugo quickly organized the language, calmly He replied, "Of course, it still needs to be adjusted slowly."

"Haha..." Although Hugo concealed it well, Allen could still feel the difference. After all, the first two encounters between the two were not familiar, but at least they were relaxed. Today's atmosphere was obviously a lot more tense. Not to mention that Will and Sandra were standing by and laughing dryly. "Guys, relax, I'm not going to cut the movie's budget or interfere with the production of the movie."

Allen's frankness made Sandra embarrassed. She lowered her head and gave Hugo a look, as if to say, "Get rid of him quickly", "Kevin told you before, I have always been a fan of movies. It's very interesting, I think it's a very interesting art, so I wanted to go to the set a long time ago, you know, just to see the filming process, to see the performance of the actors, you know, for movie lovers That kind of curiosity." Allen said quickly in a relaxed tone.

Hugo immediately understood what Allen meant, as if everyone was more or less interested in the operation of the set. When the crew was filming in public, it could always arouse people's onlookers.

"Especially I just watched 'Death Row' not long ago. I really admire Hugo's performance. I was very curious about what Hugo would look like working on the set, so I came here today." Allen Looking at Hugo politely, those azure blue eyes were soft and bright, sending out a friendly signal.

"Yes!" It was Will who answered. Sandra and Hugo couldn't hold back the earth-shattering sound, and he chuckled lightly, causing Will to touch his head in embarrassment." I thought the same, so I made a special trip to the set today, Hugo's performance is really worth learning."

Allen seemed to have found a bosom friend. The index fingers of both hands pointed to Will, and he said with a smile, "Look, that's what I mean." He laughed lightly, and the atmosphere finally eased up.

"So, Hugo, you said you didn't get used to it just now. What's going on? Green screen? What's that?" Allen looked at Hugo with a curious look on his face, as if he was really curious about movies. generally.

It makes sense to think about it, $100 million - I heard that Allen's check to 20th Century Fox was $150 million. If Allen wasn't really interested in movies, he wouldn't be so generous.

Hugo looked at Sandra, then looked at Ellen, "To be honest, it's not quite right for you to ask me to explain this kind of thing, because I'm very confused myself, I think I need Roland or the computer effects staff to come and explain. It's more appropriate..." The smile on Hugo's face finally recovered, and he explained it according to his own understanding, while Alan listened carefully. This relaxed the slightly tense atmosphere just now. Although it was not obvious, it was at least a good sign.

It's not always easy to deal with a boss showing up to supervise work, isn't it?

From Kevin to Allen to Roland, the problems condensed behind a commercial film like "Independence Day" are obviously not that simple. Hugo had already felt it before the film started-a grand opening ceremony, lively media Interview, it's all brand new stuff. It seems Rick was right when Hugo was in a real commercial blockbuster, it would be very different, it was a whole new world.
