Chapter 935: The intrigue among the Hollywood crew

Spielberg showed some vague hostility towards Ye Ming from the beginning, deliberately neglecting Ye Ming. But at this time, Ye Ming seemed as if nothing had happened. He stayed on the set and watched TV leisurely. From time to time, he would pick up the newspaper ordered by the set and read through it.

At this time, after the afternoon's shooting work was over, Spielberg thought for a while and said: "Old Andre, Ye Ming has been planning this for so long, how is his performance?"

Old Andre, that was Spielberg's very lucky director. It is impossible for someone who is not a close confidant of the director to reach the position of stage manager.

Old Andre said with a smile: "At this time, Ye Ming was not anxious at all. He was watching TV and reading newspapers. In the meantime, two people, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Michael Jackson, even called Ye Ming. He Personally, I showed no anxiety at all, as if I was on vacation with the crew."

Spielberg was also very surprised by Ye Ming's calm performance. If an ordinary person was left alone like this for a long time, he would probably lose his temper or leave in shame. But Ye Ming didn't seem to take this matter seriously at all?

Spielberg thought for a while and said curiously: "Doesn't he have any expression of surprise? Ordinarily, for a person of his age, even if he doesn't say anything, his expression may not reveal anything at all."

Old Andre shrugged his shoulders with some disappointment and said: "I really didn't find this. Maybe it means that Ye Ming's performance is too eye-catching. Therefore, in such a situation, I don't recommend to continue to let him go." , this is not good for the crew or Ye Ming."

Spielberg saw that his own effects were falling short. In a process like this.

Seeing that his strategy had no effect, Spielberg said helplessly: "That's it. For Ye Ming, this test is enough. I will arrange his scenes tonight. I hope he won't disappoint me." ah.

Originally, Spielberg planned to wait for three days before letting Ye Ming start filming, but he did not expect Ye Ming's performance to be so shocking. Therefore, Spielberg feels that if it is about continuing the test, then there is nothing more to say.

Therefore, such an exam was directly cancelled.

Ye Ming didn't care about being ignored, but Spielberg didn't want to waste time on this matter. Therefore, someone directly informed Ye Ming to prepare and start shooting the first scene in the evening.

At this moment, Ma Su said unhappily: "Boss, what kind of thing is this? In the beginning, we were made to wait, and not even a person putting on makeup cared about us. They obviously left us hanging. But now On the contrary, we agreed to start shooting directly in the evening, and your script was sent half an hour ago. Does this obviously mean that you look down on us? "

This is something Ma Su thinks about in his heart.

But in such a situation, Ye Ming waved his hand and said: "What the hell, this is how it is in Hollywood. If you want to win the respect of others, then you have to make sure you are strong enough at this time. Why? A big star is a big star. In fact, it means that a big star has enough acting skills to directly express the director's artistic needs. We have not done anything, so of course it is impossible for others to respect you."

The jungle of the jungle is a law of Hollywood. I believe many people who want to come to Hollywood are very clear about this.

Ye Ming didn't care at all about what the crew did, including what director Spielberg did.

How can others respect you if they don’t know you or your strength at all?

Therefore, Ye Ming did not take this matter seriously at all. If you don't directly show your abilities to them, others will naturally not want to respect you.

Ma Su said angrily: "This matter is similar to that in the Mainland, but in the Mainland, I don't think anyone would dare to deal with you like this, boss?"

It seems that this is true. At this time, Ye Ming really explained, sat up straight and said: "To tell you the truth, we in China are not saying that there are not enough good actors, but that we have enough good actors, but Why don't many people break into Hollywood?

You'll know something like this later. Generation gap, the cultural differences between our East and the West are expressed in a generation gap. As for how to make up for this, at this time, it depends on the star's own acting skills. "

There is a generation gap. There is actually a generation gap. When I was in school, my teacher didn’t say there was a generation gap between actors from the East and the West.

But at a time like this, Ma Su truly realized this in Hollywood.

Therefore, Ma Su said with some surprise: "We are all actors. What is the generation gap? Can it be said that Hollywood actors can directly crush our big stars in China?"

This was difficult for Ma Su to understand for a while. In such a situation, there are many people who want to bridge the generation gap, but how few people can do this with dogs?

Ye Ming waved his hand and said, "I may not explain it clearly to you. When we shoot at night, you can pay attention to my performance and you will know what the generation gap is."

Such a generation gap is very easy to observe.

Regardless of whether it is an Eastern movie or a Western movie, one thing is involved at this time, that is, on such an issue, the style of the entire movie.

The intuitive thing is to look at what a director's personal style is like.

The overall style of a movie must be consistent. Only in this way can it become a true classic.

If a Westerner suddenly appears in an Eastern movie, or if an Easterner suddenly appears in a Western movie, then this will make a difference in the overall film style.

This is why Spielberg doesn't like to have an Oriental character in his movies. Because the appearance of Ye Ming will greatly affect the style of the entire movie.

If it is said that Ye Ming's performance is not very good and can be integrated into the whole movie, then at this time, for the movie "Minority Report", Ye Ming will be a burden, or even say that it will Leading to the failure of the entire Minority Report movie.

This is an important surname for the fusion of film styles. Of course, if Ye Ming has strong enough acting skills to be integrated into the movie Minority Report, this would be the icing on the cake.

Therefore, tonight's performance should be very important. The important thing is that shrinkage determines whether Ye Ming can continue to stay.

In fact, seeing the current atmosphere of the entire crew, Ye Ming also knew very clearly that it was a mule or a horse, and it was taken out for a walk. Whatever you say is false.

When Ye Ming wanted to enter Hollywood, he actually knew that one day he would face the unspoken rules of Hollywood.

It’s just that Ye Ming never thought that the director of his first big production in Hollywood would be Spielberg.

Being able to show off his talent in a movie like this is also a test for Ye Ming.

One of the four major directors in Hollywood, this is no ordinary title. He said that Spielberg has very strict requirements for movies.

Xu Zheng said seriously on the side: "Boss. I did some research and found out that Director Spielberg has very high requirements for movies. Your first movie actually said that you met Director Spielberg. This is incredible." I don’t know if it’s a very lucky thing. I don’t know if this is a blow to you, or if it’s another opportunity for you.”

Ye Mingdu has already guessed the matter to this point, and Xu Zheng also expressed his worries. For most of the day, Xu Zheng has been observing Spielberg's crew. He is an expert in watching the crew. The whole thing is as busy as a piece of machinery.

Therefore, this also made Xu Zheng feel that this crew was stronger than any other crew he had ever been in.

Whether this is a good thing for Ye Ming remains to be seen.

Because Ye Ming was the first to face such a strong lineup. If Ye Ming can pass this level, it can be said that in the future, any crew or director in Hollywood will not be able to speak language or acting skills. Questioned Ye Ming.

But if it fails, then Ye Ming's plan to enter Hollywood will be shelved for at least three years. After all, if Ye Ming is directly fired from the Minority Report crew, it will definitely be a big blow to Ye Ming's career.

Ye Ming shook his head and said nothing, his eyes fell on the script. If this is an opportunity, it depends on whether you can seize it.

After finally struggling to this point, Ye Ming is also opportunistic. If Ye Ming had not been backed by the powerful Huihuang Network, William Morris Company might not be so eager to recruit him. If it were not for the fact that he has a strong influence on investment insights. , Spielberg may not give the nod to participate in Minority Report.

This time Spielberg is not compromising on some unspoken rules of Hollywood.

It has been so difficult for Ye Ming to achieve such a status. You can imagine how difficult it would be for other Chinese actors or actors from Asia-Pacific to come to Hollywood.

This is simply more difficult than growing up from the grassroots to a superstar in your own country.

Because in their own country, everyone is the same whether it is cultural background or performance style. If you do better than others, you have hope of getting ahead.

But if it is said that under such a situation, an Asian in Hollywood must at least be better than most Hollywood actors. In this case, then he has a chance of success.

Ye Ming's multiple identities forced people in Hollywood to take him seriously, and this gave him the opportunity to perform.

Ye Ming closed his eyes and said, "You guys go out for a while. I want to quietly think about tonight's filming. By the way, tell the crew that if they have to deal with us again at dinner tonight, I don't mind giving them an unforgettable experience." Lessons."

On the crew, Spielberg can show off his face because he is the boss of the crew. Even to Tom Cruise, he teaches him a lesson.

Just like old Andre, Spielberg is the boss in the crew.

Moreover, he also doubted Ye Ming's acting skills, so it was understandable that he would leave Ye Ming alone at this moment. But if the crew members dared to trip up Zhi himself, then such a thing would be something Ye Ming couldn't tolerate.

There are unspoken rules for the crew. For extra performers, if the stage manager says to get some kickbacks or to suppress them, then forget it.

They are just an extra act, so there won't be a few idiots who would protest for this. But Ye Ming is a star after all. Even though he is not very famous in Hollywood and is relatively unknown to many people, he still won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor and was invited by Spielberg to play the role. actor.

Therefore, if one of the situations in Ziah is that the crew thinks that Ye Ming, an Oriental, is easy to bully, that would be wrong. After Xu Zheng left, he went to the production team and told the crew exactly what happened.

But it seemed that the crew didn't take Xu Zheng's warning to heart at all. Xu Zheng told Ye Ming the outcome of the incident, and said that he saw that the crew put the lunch boxes of his group together with those of the extras, clearly looking down on them.

Ye Ming waved his hand and asked Xu Zheng to leave. This crew was indeed a small world. Even the crew members looked down on Orientals like them. It was obvious that other people had the same thoughts as the crew.

If it was noon, he was rushed and unprepared, but Ye Ming had been here for a long time at this time, and the crew still didn't pay attention to the four people on his side, which was unforgivable.

Not everyone on the crew belongs to Spielberg, and not everyone on the crew is afraid of offending Ye Ming.

So at this time, Ye Ming pondered for a while and entered the system, and soon knew a way to solve the problem.

After closing his eyes for five minutes, Ye Ming said to himself: "You are so brave to look down on us Chinese people. Since you are saying that we are not allowed to eat well, then everyone will abandon you and be in trouble."

Ye Ming is definitely not the kind of person who knows how to be forbearing. The true character of Ye Ming is that he must retaliate. If a member of the production team dares to offend Ye Ming, how will he be able to hang out in the crew in the future? (To be continued)
