Chapter 497
On Sunday morning, October 1, under the early morning sunlight, Ye Wei and Lily drove a Ford sedan renting a hotel and pressed the navigation to play at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge, which was less than half an hour's drive away. Just fell in love with the Internet...
Twenty years ago, it was a region where the land was seriously polluted by chemical weapons and chemicals. After years of governance, it has now become a home for wild animals and has a zero-pollution tourism area for the public. You can drive to see wild plants and creatures, and it is deserted, with few tourists, which is really a good place for two people.
The atmosphere last night was very wonderful, but nothing happened. He finally sent her back to her suite and went back to her room to sleep. How could he be called a bastard?
The moving car did not play songs or listen to radio stations. The two laughed and talked about the song creation of the silent starless band, and were still very happy from last night.
"I have too many ideas." Ye Wei said while driving, "How many songs should an album have? 10 songs? Can't stand it! What's the name of the first album? It's called Wuyin Wuxing? The album of the same name?" He turned to look at her.
"Let's settle later." Lily was also full of interest, but when she thought of something, she couldn't help but remind: "But, it's all right, so the band can't delay your movie."
"How could it be?" Ye Wei laughed.
Lily was a little doubtful. She almost talked about music since she met. Of course, it was sweet and interesting, but his job was not a singer after all. "Winter Bones" will start filming tomorrow, but she didn't listen to him. And she was also a little surprised. He spent his limited free time every night in half a month and almost completed two songs. She knew the difficulty in this. Will writing songs affect his intention to make movies?
She said, "I think you know, I hope you will make "Winter Bones" the most. You have also said that this opportunity is very important to you. So shoot the movie first, take your time, we are just playing, don't just make me happy..." She said, turning her eyes and smiling, "Just don't."
"Okay!" Ye Wei looked at her, looked back at the smooth road conditions of the vast road ahead, and smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is a hobby. The so-called hobby is something you do after doing your job well, relaxing your body and mind, and in turn improving the efficiency of your job. The shooting period will leave much less time for your hobby, but I will not stop obsessing with you."
"You can handle it." Lily nodded with a smile, "Director, talk about the movie?"
After changing the topic, Ye Wei also talked happily: "You know that the pre-scheduling work went smoothly, those without challenges, and the actors were also good. Jennifer Lawrence and Elicica Vikander, their performance was really good. The best thing was that they were willing to suffer, they were willing to do so, they were not spoiled at all, and they were great."
"Am I scornful?" Lily asked teasedly.
"Haha!" Ye Wei couldn't help laughing, "Little by little." Why don't you want to talk to her about w'sb? It's hard not to talk about Jennifer and Elicica, and then it's hard not to praise them, praise other girls to your girlfriend, no matter what, it's a stupid thing.
"Little bit? I thought you would say 'No.'" Lily demonstrated with her fingers angrily: "That's just a little bit. If you say a little bit, that's nothing. Are I right?" He nodded seriously: "It's totally correct." She laughed and said, "It's just a little bit."
The two of them laughed suddenly, and after a long time, she said again: "It seems that they didn't disappoint you, I'm very happy, really."
"It might be that many actors have a good preparation period for the training period, and they were also very good when they were rehearsing a few minutes before the filming starts, but..." Ye Wei frowned and said bitterly: "When I called to start filming, it was really true, they seemed to suddenly not be able to act. Because there is a difference between rehearsal and filming, especially with different mentalities, the two girls had very shallow performance experience, and Lawrence was even a 100% rookie. I am really afraid that she would be like Liz."
"What about Liz?" Lily asked, feeling depressed when she heard this person.
Ye Wei had never told her about Liz's performance issues, and said simply: "Liz respects my authority a little too much. She has reached the level of mechanical obedience of instructions, which limits her performance and is limited from a subconscious level. It is not bad to perform like this, but it is not as good as the actors' flashes."
"For example," he thought about it and continued: "Sometimes, when a shot is finished, the director doesn't call cut, just to let the actors improvise and get their flash. For example, the last classic scene of "Graduate", Dustin Hoffman and...Catherine Rose's expression changes before and after, performed the characters from crazy to confused inner changes in a few moments. That was an unexpected gain. When rehearsing, it ended with a smile, and when filming, director Mike Nichols did not call cut. If the two actors didn't react, or kept laughing, there would be no more. Think about it, if "Graduate" ended with two people laughing, how much difference is? It's completely different. The ending with a smile is full of hope, and the expressionless face is a confusion. It is obvious that the expressionless face sublimates the story."
Seeing her nodding, he was excited: "There are also like "Dr. Strange Love". Peter Cyrus played three main characters, and it was also the ending scene. The Dr. Strange Love he played was telling those senior officials about his plans for human future. The more he spoke, the more he became more and more fanatical. Dr. Strange suddenly raised his hand and performed a Nazi ceremony! It was also improvisational. The Nazi ceremony was really... unintentionally offended. I mean it had a great effect on the movie, which was impressive. Finally, Sellers stood up from his wheelchair, took a few steps tremblingly, shouting, "First of the Year, I can leave!", playing Dr. Strange Love is a lunatic to the extreme, and also showed the satirical and warning of the rising Nazism. That was done by the great actor, Kubrick knew that Peter Cyrus would make the movie better, so he asked Sellers to lead."
"It sounds very difficult." Lily actually doesn't understand very much. She feels good about herself before acting, but he says she can only perform in her true form.
"Of course!" Ye Weiyi looked serious, "That has top requirements for the actor's performance, understanding, creativity, etc., and he needs to have that kind of dedication and confidence to release the glitter deep in his mind. Liz just can't do it, she's too bad in this regard. And "The Bones of Winter", what I worry about the most is Lawrence's performance. That girl is a performance genius, and she will be fine with her time. It's just the first time she performs on the camera. I want her to be a leader, which is hard to say."
He shrugged, "That girl probably doesn't even know what 'make-a-meal-of-it' is."
"I know." Lily smiled, as the saying goes, overdoing things and making a big deal.
"When I said to her, 'Take it as a meal!' I need her to perform too much," Ye Wei explained. "It's easy to understand the meaning, but it's difficult to do it, and it's easy to cause the actor to lose control and balance of the entire performance. Her role, 'Rui', has some overdone scenes, but most of the time is restrained. On the set that is filmed in an indirect manner, it's only known whether Lawrence can perform well on the set."
"Can you help her?" Lily asked with a blink of an eye. Ye Wei replied: "Yes, this is the director's business. I have helped Liz, but the effect is not very good; I will also help Lawrence, but she really needs to create it herself."
...
The two of them played like this all day long. Last time they took Duoduo to Disneyland to play, but at that time, they were different now, and today's happiness was incomparable.
In the morning, I watched animals, photographed, played, and joked in the wildlife reserve. At noon, I went to the nearby town for lunch, and in the afternoon, I went to the native botanical garden by Lake Mary to enjoy the autumn flowers and plants. In the small pavilion by the lake, Ye Wei played the guitar and sang lily. Lily held the tambourine and beat the beat, tilted her head and smiled happily as if she couldn't stand it.
Every moment of silent and star-free gathering is the most beautiful memory!
The day was so short that it seemed like they had been together for a while. The two of them were reluctant to leave and went back to the hotel and then to the airport. They were about to leave before the night fell. She took off for Los Angeles at 19:11, and he took off for Springfield at 19:46.
When Ye Wei returned to Springfield at 22:35, Lily had already returned to her home in Los Angeles safely. He was always texting with her on the way back to the hotel from the airport; when he returned to the Hilton Garden Inn to the southeast of the city, it was already 11:30.
All members of the w’sb crew stayed here. The garden hotel is not expensive, and the rooms they stayed in are different. In fact, he is the only one who counts online on the Internet, and there are no other big names.
This time, for the sake of the movie's supremeness and not allowing anyone to suppress Jennifer's play, although many well-known actors and celebrity actors want to play the main roles of Uncle Tears, police officers, etc., he all chose strange faces that basically no one knew. He could use local actors to use local ones, which could better interpret the customs and customs of the Ozark Mountains.
He has given the crew the best treatment and encouraged everyone hard. For example, according to industry standards, ** movies, the famous new actor, Jennifer can only get $3,000 a week, and filming for four months is $12,000 a week. He gave her $5,000 a week, and finished filming for 20,000 a month.
This is the first pay she earned since she acted two years ago. The 20,000 yuan tax was paid, and it would be almost done to buy her latest autumn and winter fashion, and the trend would change in a few months.
It's getting late, and it's sunrise around 7:10 on the first day of October. The crew will gather at 6 o'clock before this to go to the set, and the actors will put on makeup.
In the bright hotel lobby, Ye Wei was walking towards the elevator entrance with a tourist backpack and a guitar, humming a tune, and was about to go back to the suite to rest. But suddenly he saw several passengers walking out of the elevator open in front of him. Jennifer and Alicica walked out together, talking about something.
He couldn't help but frown and strode towards them, "Hey, girls."
They also saw him and were stunned. They exchanged their eyes quickly and shouted like a good person: "Wei." They were too polite to call others. Before, he asked them to call him Wei, and he happily said, "We are friends."
"Where are you going?" Ye Wei looked at the two dressed in neat clothes. The question actually said: Still going to play!? Do you still have a mental acting tomorrow? Isn't it "suggest" that you have to rest at 11 o'clock?
