Chapter 669 Invitation
Luo Xun didn't expect that he just called an acquaintance in Marvel and solved a small trouble that affected the filming of the crew, but he actually became more mysterious and powerful in the hearts of the crew. Now, let alone Deng Chao's overly enthusiastic attitude towards Luo Xun, even the main creative team of the crew became obviously more talkative when communicating with Luo Xun...
In fact, this mentality is easy to understand.
In China, people like Chen Kexin can be said to be great directors respected by everyone, and Deng Chao and Tong David are first-line stars with extremely high national popularity. Wherever they go, they are accompanied by flowers and applause and are sought after by people. But when you leave China and come to this American land, who do Americans know about you?
This is a strange environment.
People will become cautious. Some problems that are easy to solve in China will always be infinitely magnified here. Everyone is unfamiliar with the place. But in such an environment, there is Luo Xun who seems to be very powerful in the United States. He is so powerful that he can easily make a phone call to solve the problem that made the crew at a loss. How can this not make the crew look at him sideways? So everyone is now privately discussing how great Luo Xun's ability is.
Luo Xun was too lazy to explain.
Except for a meeting with Robert Downey Jr. when he first arrived in the United States, he spent the rest of his life commuting between the hotel and the studio every day. After all, he came out to film, not to date friends.
The filming progress was very fast.
At this time, the movie had already filmed the part where New Dream was suspected of infringing the test questions of the American Educational Testing Service and was facing prosecution. The three leaders of New Dream needed to have various verbal battles with the people of the American Educational Testing Service -
The difficult part was not the acting.
The difficult part was the lines.
Because the verbal battle lines were very long and had to be spoken in English. If you didn't speak fluent English, it would be easy to show your timidity when filming this scene. Because according to the movie setting, the three leaders of New Dream all had very high English levels. If the three people didn't speak English fluently in the actual performance, some English-speaking audiences would probably spray the movie in minutes.
Why?
Because Cheng Dongqing is the principal of Xinmeng, who started out teaching English to students. Wang Yang even dated an American girl for a long time, not to mention that Meng Xiaojun studied abroad for so long. It would be funny if people who deal with English all day could not read English well. At this time, Luo Xun was undoubtedly the one under the most pressure, because Luo Xun had the longest lines, which were almost equivalent to a personal speech. In the movie, he relied on this self-defense that was close to a speech to turn the tide.
Of course, Luo Xun was under a lot of pressure.
After all, this is just the opinion of others.
In fact, when it came to the actual shooting, we knew that Luo Xun's English was very good, so good that the whole crew couldn't believe it: "I have a friend, who&nbore brilliant that i will ever be and more deserver the success. But when he came to America, i have realized that the best man&nby generation, destoryed here. Mr. Bonot the palce here had never been even. This&nby way of regainning my friend's..."
There is still a lot of words to say, so I won't say it.
In short, his English is too good. This is not a task that can be completed with a simple rush. Not to mention that Luo Xun has been abroad, many international students who have been abroad for a few years may not have such good English, not to mention that Luo Xun has not been abroad for that long. Therefore, Luo Xun received applause from the entire crew. It can be regarded as worthwhile for Luo Xun to force himself not to use a translator when he lived abroad and to use Americans to practice his English speaking ability. As for Tong David and Deng Chao, because they have a limited vocabulary and the length of their lines cannot be compared with Luo Xun's level of speech, there is no problem at all to cope with this scene by rote memorization.
Chen Kexin is very happy.
Since the filming of the movie started, except for the troublesome kissing scene between Luo Xun and Qin Hailu, all other parts seem to have not encountered too many difficulties. Basically, they just polished it a few times and passed it. As a director, the happiest thing is the smooth shooting.
However…
Chen Kexin was too happy too early. When filming a scene of eating in an American restaurant, someone got the news and a large number of foreign students suddenly came to watch, so that the restaurant that was supposed to belong to the studio was overcrowded. They had to clear the area several times before they finally finished filming this scene of eating. Even so, Luo Xun and his friends were surrounded by a group of foreign students after filming.
Don’t look at them as foreign students.
Many of them also follow domestic dramas and watch domestic news and gossip. They are more familiar with celebrities than ordinary people. Especially when they meet Luo Xun, Tong Dawei and Deng Chao in foreign countries, they are so happy that they ask for autographs——
Luo Xun is not unfamiliar with this situation.
When he was studying directing abroad and performing in drama abroad, he had encountered more than one experience of being recognized by Chinese people and asked for autographs, so he responded to the group with a smile on his face, signing autographs quickly. Tong David and Deng Chao on the side also followed suit, which appeased the group of people and allowed the filming to continue. It is inevitable to encounter such situations when filming abroad. If you don’t encounter them, it only means that you are not famous enough.
"Brother Xun."
Afterwards, Deng Chao said to Luo Xun with emotion: "It was really wonderful to walk on the street without being recognized in the first few days after arriving in the United States, but after staying for a long time, I secretly hoped that these foreign-looking people would also recognize me. What kind of mentality do you think this is? Today, a group of foreign students surrounded us. I was actually quite happy about this long-lost feeling..."
Luo Xun smiled.
It is not easy to let foreigners know him. Many people in China have made countless efforts, but only a few people have done it. Luo Xun has the hope of doing it, but the premise is that his superhero movie can be popular. Otherwise, it is impossible to enter Hollywood with domestic movies like "Partners". It's just that Luo Xun has never been in a hurry--
Luo Xun thinks so.
That night, Luo Xun received another text message from Nini, who invited him to a Hollywood circle party. Luo Xun thought that except for the first day, he had missed several appointments with her recently, so he simply agreed.
Yes.
These days, Nini has been inviting Luo Xun to go out, either to parties or to bars. Although he is a famous prodigal son in Hollywood, he is a person who likes to be lively after all. It's just that he plays and jokes and doesn't joke about the bottom line.
As for the gathering in the circle...
Luo Xun didn't intend to get into Hollywood, he just wanted to meet Nini again. After all, he might return to China after filming "Partners". Before leaving, he had to say goodbye to this American friend.
