Chapter 685 Chapter 685

Hugo tugged at the ring around his neck depressedly, the smooth plastic surface pressed tightly against his Adam's apple, making him feel like he was being restrained, although he had just adjusted the restraint belt behind him and relaxed a little. A little bit, but there is still a suffocation feeling, "Huh, are you sure you won't feel out of breath when running like this?"

Looking at Hugo's tangled expression, a group of people next to him laughed, "Don't worry, we have always worked like this, and we have never seen anyone suffocated because of this headset." A small part of the crowd are idle members of the Los Angeles police, who participate in the show as extras and can also give the crew some advice.

Hugo has already put on the Los Angeles police's SWAT uniforms. In addition to body armor and gun clips, in order to keep in touch, they must also carry the communication equipment for the police's internal communication, because the connection lines on the communication equipment are more complicated. , so they must wear a fixing frame around the neck to fix the lines connected in series, so as to avoid confusion or even knotting of the connecting lines, which will affect the movement.

In this way, the connection lines of the communication equipment became clear, but the fixed frame hanging around his neck made Hugo feel that his breathing was not smooth. Looking at the police officers around him who had long been accustomed to it, Hugo smiled helplessly. , "It seems that I haven't dealt with the bad guys yet, and I'm about to trip over these devices." This made Hugo start to nostalgic, and advanced communication equipment after the 21st century should not be so troublesome.

Leonardo, who was standing next to him, was also groping for his equipment with a fresh look. He pointed to a small pocket in front of his abdomen, turned his head and asked, "What is this?"

"Magazine pocket." Someone next to him replied kindly.

"What about this?" Leonardo pointed to another small pocket and continued to ask.

"It's also a magazine pocket," the same voice answered again.

"What about this?" Leonardo tirelessly.

Hugo just rolled his eyes, "It's all bullet clips, otherwise, what do you think you do with more pockets and lollipops?" Everyone nearby burst into laughter.

Leonardo scratched his head in embarrassment, and he also realized that the question he had just asked was too amateur, "I thought these pockets had different functions, such as gun stocks, or daggers."

"The butt is here," Hugo patted Leonardo's waist, then kicked Leonardo's calf with his toes, "the dagger is here."

Leonardo suddenly looked wide-eyed, looked around excitedly, and then looked at Hugo with admiration, "You look like a special police officer." In order to star in "Life and Death" "Speed ​​per hour", Hugo went to shave a round inch, this is also the third time that Hugo has played a role similar to a soldier, but this time round inch is the most thorough, showing Hugo's entire facial features clearly, with some more soldiers. Jagged and capable, "It's just too handsome, it's easy to become the target of the enemy's attack."

Hugo curled his lips, "You're so suave, okay? It's estimated that women will faint when the task is done." After speaking, Hugo exaggeratedly stroked his burr, as if bathed in sunlight. In general, this action made everyone else couldn't help but burst into laughter, and even the staff who were preparing to shoot not far away laughed.

Leonardo didn't cut his hair because he didn't have the role requirements, and it's now longer than it was when he was filming "Different Sky", although it didn't reach the level of "Total. Eclipse" in 1995. He was romantic and uninhibited at the peak of the period, but it can be seen that he has gradually transformed from a young boy to a shadow of a handsome young man, and that long golden hair is indeed indescribably suave.

Hugo's stroking his hair was obviously deliberately imitating Leonardo, and the amorous movement was a little joyful because of Hugo's exaggeration, plus Hugo's burr that was not as thick as the palm of his hand, It creates a hilarious effect.

Leonardo was immediately embarrassed by Hugo's counterattack, but looking at Hugo's deliberately exaggerated appearance, even he couldn't help laughing, and he burst out laughing.

At this time, the laughter around suddenly went up a step again. Leonardo thought that Hugo had done something again, and directly cast his eyes on Hugo, but found that everyone, including Hugo, turned their attention. cast on himself. Only then did Leonardo notice that his right hand was inserted into his hair. He also subconsciously stroked his hair just now, which inadvertently completely overlapped with Hugo's previous movements. No wonder everyone laughed so happily.

However, Leonardo himself is also a person who likes to play pranks, so when things have developed to this point, he has completely let go of his hands and feet. Instead, he has completely let go of his actions, and exaggeratedly tossed his hair twice in a row, what? At this moment, the romantic and suave also turned into a funny and funny, which immediately made the whole crew burst into laughter.

The crew of "Speed ​​of Life" has been officially launched for three days. When all the news media are still discussing whether the film "Speed ​​of Life" is worth looking forward to, whether Hugo should take up this work, and whether the film can earn 100 million US dollars at the box office At the time, the crew had already quietly put into filming.

Moreover, it can be seen from the laughter of the crew that the discussions in the outside media have no impact on the crew, and even the "100 million box office" that has been noisy in the past two days has not triggered more discussions within the crew.

The same is true when you think about it carefully. Hugo, who is a party, is so calm, and no matter how heavy the pressure of others, he will not be able to compare to Hugo. Now Hugo alone can be worth half the crew of "Life and Death". Also, more than two-thirds of all the pressure on the entire crew is on Hugo. Now Hugo doesn't seem to have any worries. It's all about the work of the crew. Such a calm and dedicated performance also injected more confidence into the crew, allowing everyone to turn their attention to the work at hand.

"Guys, it's time to start shooting." Jane de Bonte walked over quickly and greeted everyone to take their places. Before walking to the camera, Jane thought for a while, and then walked in front of Hugo and Leonardo. "Don't worry, today's security measures have all been put in place, don't worry."

Hugo looked at Jane with a nervous expression, but instead jumped two steps with a chuckle, "I believe in your professionalism, but I don't believe in Leo's arm strength, look at his stick-like arms, he has to support mine. Weight is not that easy."

Leonardo was despised by Hugo, and immediately jumped up, "Hey, if you and I compete in arm strength, we don't know who wins or loses!"

Hugo shrugged, "You're the boss, you're the boss. My life depends on your hands."

Although Hugo expressed his trust in himself, Leonardo didn't sound right, but there was no way to refute it, he could only look at Hugo with a tangled face. Jane stood next to him and smiled, "Don't worry, our staff will take care of insurance in the back." But considering Leonardo's self-esteem, he added, "Just in case."

It's a pity that adding a sentence is self-defeating, making Leonardo's face suddenly strange, and Hugo burst into laughter. Looking at the depressed Jane, Hugo patted him on the shoulder, "Go and prepare for the shooting, and Leo and I will be in place right away."

After watching Jane leave, Hugo hugged Leonardo into his arms, "Ha, okay, what's your expression, I'm going to take risks, and I'm worried about it." Rain Guo pulled Leonardo towards the shooting location, but Leonardo was dragged forward by Hugo, and glanced at Hugo hatefully, "Be careful I'll slip!" Hugo laughed again.

The scenes that Hugo and Leonardo are going to shoot in the past two days are indeed quite dangerous. Tomorrow they will shoot the first blasting scene, and today they will be the first to shoot the scene where a steel cable is used to hold the elevator in danger of falling.

This is a scene at the beginning of the movie. The rope of an elevator was blown off, it was falling, and finally stopped at about the 30th floor. The man behind the scenes asked for a ransom of three million dollars, otherwise he would put the lower support The frame also exploded, causing the entire elevator to fall directly. After the two partners Jack and Harry entered the elevator derrick, they realized that the time was too late. No matter who was behind the scenes, the bomb would be detonated, so Jack decided to hook the elevator with the steel rope on the top floor of the building. After the explosion, the elevator still has a suspension point and will not continue to fall.

Since the elevator is in mid-air, if you put more weight on the elevator, maybe the elevator will fall directly, so Jack must wrap the rope and slide down from a high altitude. Harry grabs the rope and releases it little by little, letting the Jack was able to hook the iron hook of the steel rope to the hook above the elevator.

In fact, the most classic picture of this scene is naturally the moment in 1996 "Mission Impossible" when Ethan slowly fell from the sky to steal data, but in fact, this trick has been used as early as "Life and Death", but " "Mission Impossible" has rendered the atmosphere of danger and suspense to the extreme, which is more impressive, and "Speed ​​of Life and Death" is more of a bus that makes people remember that it is constantly running and cannot slow down.

Now to shoot this scene, all of Hugo's weight is maintained in the rope in Leonardo's hand, and Leonardo has to slowly lower the rope so that Hugo can continue to fall, which increases the difficulty even more . So Hugo and Leonardo had the conversation just now.

In fact, from a purely mechanical point of view, even if Arnold Schwarzenegger controls the rope, it is estimated that it is difficult to maintain stability, and Leonardo is not a strong person, his arm is even thinner than Hugo. , so relying on Leonardo is definitely not reliable, this is the rope that maintains Hugo's life, Jane arranged a total of four staff to help control it, just hope that this scene can be successfully completed.
