Chapter 687

"Tell me again, Leo, why did I accept this job?" Hugo was hung in the air and said swayingly, which made the crew unresponsive, and thought that Jane shouted again Filming started, because Hugo's line was exactly the same as Jack's, but the subject was changed from "Harry" to "Leo."

But Leonardo reacted immediately, and he also said in an impatient tone, "Oh, please, in thirty days, you will get six million dollars in salary and dozens of newspaper headlines. ."

"Cool!" Hugo curled his lips, and said.

At this time, everyone realized that it was not the filming work that started again, but Hugo and Leonardo, two living treasures, teasing each other. Suddenly everyone couldn't help but laugh, but the laughter just started, but they listened. Until their conversation continues.

"Then tell me again, Leo, why did you accept this job?" Hugo hung upside down, with leisurely resting his right hand on his cheek, making the appearance of a thinker.

This time Leonardo was even more impatient. "Oh, please, in thirty days, I'll get half a million dollars and the title of 'Hugo's Best Friend'."

"Cool!" Hugo sighed again, "So this is the difference between me hanging here like frozen pork, and you and the other four strong men clutching the rope next to me."

"Hahahaha..." Don't talk about the staff this time, even Leonardo and the four strong men holding the rope all burst into laughter, which made the rope holding Hugo's weight start to shake violently. , and even slid down a palm distance, Hugo hurriedly shouted, "helmet, helmet! I need my helmet!"

Fortunately, Leonardo and others also realized that they were maintaining Hugo's life safety, and immediately grabbed the rope. Leonardo was the first to shout dissatisfiedly, "Hugo, are you sure you want to live? ?"

"Grass, try it! My mind is full of images of blood after my brain exploded, damn Quentin..." Hugo complained gloomily, everyone didn't react at first, but then Realizing that Hugo had just finished filming "Pulp Fiction," and Quentin Tarantino had shown his love of plasma in his previous debut, "Reservoir Dogs." This time, the staff outside the elevator shaft instantly showed a situation of scorched earth.

Jane de Bont was originally discussing the angle of the next shot with the photographer. He knew that the reaction of Hugo's body function must be uncomfortable when he was hung there, so he planned to finish the shooting at a fast pace. It is also the reason why Leonardo and others did not put Hugo down, but kept hanging. But contrary to Jane's expectations, the discussion took a little longer than expected, and then there was a scene where Hugo and Leonardo teased each other.

Jane looked at the laughing crew and laughed helplessly, then picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted, "Leonardo, put Hugo down another foot. Hugo, grab the fixture and put your body Calm down and get ready to shoot."

"Cool!" Hugo managed to make Jane laugh with just one simple word.

The shooting of this scene was not difficult. After shooting again, Jane changed three different angles and took a quarter of an hour to complete all the shooting. Then, in order to cooperate with Leonardo, the most realistic effect was captured. After a short rest, Guo went into battle again and continued to be hanged upside down, making Leonardo's expression of force and control clearly show.

In this way, Hugo was hung upside down for more than half an hour before and after the shooting of the whole scene was completed.

Hugo sat on the steel brace, rubbed his temples with both hands, and opened his mouth to breathe. At this time, it could be seen from the flushed cheeks that his brain congestion was very serious. Hugo felt a little dizzy, his stomach was a little uncomfortable, and he felt a little nauseous, but it wasn't too strong. He just needed a little rest and he should be fine.

Closing his eyes, he could also clearly feel the dynamic of blood flowing from the brain to the limbs of the body, allowing the limbs, which were somewhat cold due to the ischemia supply, to gradually return to temperature.

"Are you okay?" Leonardo's voice came from the ear, everyone was preparing for the shooting of the next scene, but seeing Hugo sitting quietly in the same place, he should have come up and roped Hugo. The staff who came in contact did not dare to step forward, worried about disturbing Hugo's rest, so Leonardo came over worriedly.

Hugo didn't speak, he still closed his eyes, he just raised his right hand to signal "Wait a moment", he couldn't even shake his head now, because the dizziness in his brain still made him have a slight tendency to vomit, and he continued to gulp. After taking a few breaths, Hugo opened his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's just that the brain is congested."

Although the filming of "Life and Death" has very basic requirements for acting, for Hugo, it can be said to be easily competent, but this film has put forward different requirements for actors.

Before Hugo was filming, he focused more on character exploration. He had to constantly think about how to act and how to interpret the character. It was very difficult to hone and improve his acting skills. It doesn't mean that you can break through if you want to. This kind of mental struggle is a huge test for spirit and energy.

Action movies such as "Speed ​​of Life and Death" put forward higher standards for actors' physical strength requirements, fighting requirements, and physical function requirements. Although there is no need to think about it, the challenge to the physical limit is equally full of difficulties. To become a "hero of salvation", not everyone has the ability.

Ryan Gosling (Ryan. Gosling), a new-generation acting actor who emerged after the 21st century, is a typical example. He has popularity, acting skills, face and figure. After achieving great success, he is widely regarded as a comic superstar. The most suitable actor for the hero is loved by many audiences. However, major production companies lacked confidence in Ryan. They believed that Ryan had no superhero temperament, which made him pass by Green Lantern, Batman and other characters successively. Especially in the casting of Green Lantern, Ryan has entered the final signing stage, but unfortunately Warner Bros. Pictures still thinks that his figure is not strong enough, and finally handed the role of Green Lantern to Ryan Reynolds (Ryan Reynolds). Reynolds).

The same is true for "Speed ​​of Life and Death". Jack, played by Hugo, almost single-handedly saved the bus that was about to explode at any time, as well as the elevator that was loaded with bombs. Jack may not be the muscular future soldier in "Terminator". , but his keen observation, quick thinking, vigorous skills, and strong physique are all necessary conditions for becoming a hero.

Not long after the filming of "Life and Death" started, Hugo deeply realized this feeling. At this time, the feeling of cerebral congestion finally eased, and the smile returned to Hugo's face again, "Hoo, I think I will always be I can't understand the sleeping position of the bat, and maybe I'm going to miss the role of the vampire."

Hugo's thought jumped very fast, Leonardo didn't react at first, and then he thought about it carefully that the bat sleeps upside down, only then did he understand the meaning of Hugo's words, and he couldn't help laughing, " Your ability to joke around is really getting better and better."

Hugo shrugged, "But fewer and fewer people understand."

Leonardo looked back at the other staff, especially the staff who stepped forward to untie the ropes on Hugo's body. All of them looked puzzled and obviously couldn't understand the meaning of Hugo's cold joke just now. It made Leonardo smile even happier, "Don't worry, this is the beginning of the test, and then you still have enough time to use your physical limits to meet everyone's expectations."

Leonardo is obviously saying that there will be many times more difficult shooting than today waiting for Hugo, Hugo understands it, but the other staff still have question marks on their faces, and the staff standing next to them see Hugo and Leonardo looked at their own eyes, hesitated, "Uh, are you ready to disassemble the equipment? The next scene will start in five minutes."

Obviously, they still didn't understand the conversation between Hugo and Leonardo, which made both of them laugh, but Hugo said kindly, "Yes, I'm ready, sorry to bother you."

It was a good thing for Hugo to have experienced such a physical test at the beginning of the shooting, which made Hugo well prepared for the next work, and then improved his state as soon as possible and put himself into the shooting. .

Although it is said that Hugo is a road idiot, it is a sense of direction problem, which has no direct connection with motor nerves. On the contrary, Hugo's athletic ability is very good, and his physical hardware ability is very good. The previous confrontation was more intense and the fight was more powerful. In the works such as "Hudson's Eagle", Hugo also showed a very high standard.

The test of "speed of life and death" for Hugo is more reflected in the aspects of reaction ability, confrontation strength, action speed, etc. Hugo is getting better and better, and he completed all the shooting tasks very easily.

The building elevator bombing in the first part of the movie is coming to an end soon, and only the last explosion scene is left. This is also a major test for the entire crew. Hugo, Leonardo and others also have a strong interest in the explosion work. After all, professional blasting teams are not so easy to meet in ordinary life.

"Hey, the two of you, can you not be so excited? It will explode in a moment, but it will be a real bullet, and Hugo will also blow Wia up, this is a very serious matter, you look like you are letting go It's like fireworks." Seeing Hugo and Leonardo eager to try, Jane, who was devastated by arranging security work, seemed very helpless.

Hugo and Leonardo looked at each other and smiled, and then heard Hugo say, "I was wondering if this is the real reason we took this job."
