Chinese entertainment for engineering students
Chapter 391 John’s discovery and Cameron’s anger
If you have visited the set, you will find that the set is not fun at all, especially the movie set, where the same shot is often shot over and over again.
A movie takes about 1,000 shots and more than 100 scenes. This is probably an average number.
Of course, the number of shots in each movie is different, and the number of scenes is also very different.
Some are quick montage and the like, and some require multi-camera shooting, so there will be a lot of shots, and it's not impossible to have more than 2,000.
And some people who like to use long shots to narrate may have fewer shots, and some may have hundreds of shots, and some even have the best shots to capture the whole scene with one shot, which has also happened.
This is closely related to the type of film and the director's style, and is not certain.
Usually the director will have a rough idea, and then when inspiration comes, he will add some temporary shooting things.
The shooting period lasts for about three months, which is about 100 days, and requires more than ten shots every day. The workload is still quite large.
For the movie "The Matrix", the pace is fast, the illusion and reality are interspersed back and forth, and some characters need to flash back some memory fragments. In addition, there are a lot of martial arts scenes. In order to be beautiful, it needs to be shot from multiple angles and the editing is relatively slow. broken.
This will lead to a surge in the number of shots, which may reach about 1,500 to 2,000 shots, of which at least 200 more shots require special effects production.
At this point you can understand why Wang Xu needs so many people to work together. This is definitely not a simple job.
In Wang Xu's opinion, to manage so many people, you really need to get a computer.
This is the thinking of engineering students. Some people don't actually use computers. They rely on their own brains and management abilities. They can manage such a large mess with just a few people.
But Wang Xu really couldn't do it, so he found someone to develop a set of special management software early on. Everything was ready-made on GIT, and the results were also open source on GIT.
This set of management software has a core control center, which is located in the new building. There is also a transmitting antenna for the paging station on the roof. There is also one in Changping. Through relays, information transmission in several large areas can be satisfied. Work.
The heads of each department each have a Chinese character pager. It is a waveguide. The Chinese version of this thing was helped by Imperial University.
The approximate work that needs to be completed every day will be sent down in the control center, and then any changes on Wang Xu's side will be reported back by phone in a timely manner, and then the operator will enter it manually.
There is no way, the current hardware devices cannot support two-way information transmission, and the mobile network is at a stage where it does not even have a shadow. However, various cordless phones are particularly useful here.
Wang Xu installed a small switchboard at the Changping base, which was enough to ensure that each studio and scene had fixed telephone connections.
Then the cordless phone came on the scene. This thing was developed by Shuimu, the College of Posts and Telecommunications in cooperation with several companies. Basically, they paid for it and provided the lowest-level engineers. The university set up the technical specifications, and they were responsible for manufacturing and future production.
At this moment, they are still laboratory products. Wang Xu doesn't care so much. He takes them and uses them first. He also requires that the communication distance be as far as possible. As for cross-channels and the like, that doesn't matter. How can experimental products be perfect? of.
Many manufacturers are interested in this thing, and several have sent technicians on site to help with debugging. Among them, Huawei in Shenzhen City and ZTE in Nandu are the most active. Those who put in the effort are really motivated.
Wang Xudu had to lament that the huge China and its subsequent development were very different. This was really determined by genes in the bones.
Wang Xu doesn't care about those applications now. Those companies are now expanding rapidly and have not widened the gap in grades. However, ZTE and Huawei have upgraded their switches, and they have also moved the wireless protocols developed by Wang Xu and others towards wireless. The direction of routers is developing, and Wang Xu knows that these two companies will definitely not be weak in the future.
Therefore, this time, the things being built at the Changping base can no longer be described as cordless phones. Cordless phones are also called slave phones, which means that the slave phones cannot exist independently of the mother phone and must be within a certain range.
But the products they now provide can actually use frequency band hopping to switch from one base phone to another.
Well, isn't this thing the prototype of a honeycomb? Who said that China has no innovation ability, so I gave you a little hint. Isn't this just a matter of imagination?
Wang Xu's team is filming a movie and is extremely busy every day. Several companies that produce BP machines and communication equipment are improving their products on site and are equally busy. This was the momentum of the 1990s. When manufacturers were in a hurry, they could really draw drawings on site.
For manufacturers, they are not afraid that you don’t have demand, but they are afraid that you can’t figure out what you want. As long as you understand what you want, there is always a way to solve it.
Wang Xu is a director, but he is also an engineer. He really knows what he wants. When he is not happy with it, he will scold him.
Then those engineers would record it. If they could solve it themselves, they would solve it immediately. If they couldn't, they would just make a phone call back to the headquarters. Some would even hold a joint seminar between universities and enterprises overnight to discuss and solve the problem.
Wang Xu even wondered whether they could make money with such a small application. Wang Xu only paid for a few phones and a set of small switches, with a total value of only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.
Wang Xu didn't hide it, and directly asked Huawei's resident engineer this question. Wang Xu felt that the little money he paid might not be enough for the engineer's salary.
Not to mention that several companies are here, including Bird, TCL, ZTE, Huawei, you name it, four resident engineers. The wages of these companies are not low at the moment.
Even if it costs a few hundred yuan a month, the stay lasts for three or four months. The total cost must have already exceeded the value of the goods.
The Huawei engineer was amused, scratched his head, and said shyly: "It's definitely not enough, but who are you? It's now recognized in the factory that you can exchange money for swearing.
Last week, you scolded the phone for not being usable. You scolded it and said, you can't use time division multiplexing. If it still doesn't work, wouldn't code division multiple access work? Code division can kill people.
Then we held a meeting all night, and Shuimu's expert was also there. He said that CDMA was something you proposed before, and there is open source information in GIT, and then we checked it all night.
I found that the design algorithm is really advanced and can be used when roaming with multiple mother machines. We even plan to replace the entire underlying logic with this set of theories. The laboratory has already started working on it. It is estimated that next week, this The equipment next to it can be completely replaced.
Now I am no longer the home engineer here. Now I am the person in charge of the R\u0026D center in the Imperial City. I am now responsible for listening to your curses here.
Their situations are actually similar.
After following you for a few months, our design seems to have gone through four revisions. New ideas are constantly being added. We have made several product prototypes, and each performance has been greatly improved.
Boss Ren told me, let me scold you casually, endure the scolding no matter how unpleasant it is, write it down and come back to study it carefully, that is the future. "
"Did I curse?" Wang Xu's focus was a little skewed, but he considered himself to have always had a good temper. He knew what the engineer said, but he didn't feel that his attitude was bad at that time.
"Well, actually it doesn't matter. Our products are often criticized by you as being useless, and we ourselves feel aggrieved. This is still a laboratory product, so it's normal to have problems. As for criticizing it like this?
But your suggestion is also a help to us and is not considered a curse. "The engineer is very honest. He still didn't admit that Wang Xu didn't curse.
"Okay, maybe I've been a little short-tempered recently. I apologize to you, and also apologize to those engineers on my behalf. I'll give you chicken drumsticks tonight." Wang Xu thought about himself a little, and he was a little angry recently.
It has been a month since the filming of the movie started, and the progress has not reached one-fifth. Wang Xu is worried about all aspects of running-in.
There are too many things to experiment with, and there is no way that there will be any problems. The result is that the hips are stretched and hindered in various places. During this period of time, Wang Xu rarely sleeps for more than four hours. It would be surprising if he didn't get angry.
An entire software team is on standby to correct system defects, and an entire hardware team is on standby for on-site repairs. Wang Xu is not the only one who stays up late and works overtime, the entire team is going crazy.
Wang Xu didn't say anything about hating working overtime. If he got anxious, he would call him in the middle of the night. Then the team would call people from dormitories to work quickly after getting up.
The movie shooting itself did not have major problems, but there were many problems with various auxiliary facilities, such as Diaowia's equipment. This set of equipment has been exported to Hong Kong, so it is said that there will be no problems.
But Wang Xu couldn't stand it and asked several units to be linked to create a layered effect of people flying out. They also had to coordinate with Wang Fei's leg movements and fly fast and far.
At this time, it is no longer enough to rely solely on human speed. Although the speed can be adjusted in post-editing, the special effects at this time cannot automatically fill the frame, and the flight will have a laggy and false feeling.
The technical difficulty required for automatic frame filling is too great, and it will not be possible for a while. Only in the future will there be hope when artificial intelligence is solved. Now I can only think about it, and then I can only find a way from physical special effects.
So the wire has to be modified. To be fast and powerful, it needs mechanical assistance, then automatic control, then computer programming, and then bugs will inevitably occur.
Anyway, in the first month, the filming of this movie was a stumbling block, which really broke Wang Xu's heart.
Fortunately, although the progress has been slowed down, the results are not bad. Wang Xu's computer special effects studio also did it while filming, and did not wait until everything was finally released, so that everyone can understand What improvements should I make?
Just like the famous bullet time, Wang Xu needs to dodge bullets, and John also needs to.
In the original film scene of the previous life, John's lens used a blurred phantom, which seemed a bit fake and acted, without the intensity of the battle. Wang Xu was not very satisfied with that shot.
So it was changed to the two people drawing guns and shooting at each other the moment they met, while quickly avoiding and approaching each other.
Then after getting close, you need to show how to quickly shoot at close range, and you have to change guns in the middle, because there can't be so many bullets, and you also need to dodge bullets during various gun-drawing movements.
Wang Xu and Yuan Heping discussed for a long time before coming up with a set of moves that satisfied him.
But at the end of this shot, because the two people were very close, Wang Xu designed a 360-degree camera surround shot. Finally, with fast editing, a sudden freeze-frame slow motion allowed the two people to cleverly capture the traces of the bullet. Dodge and shoot around like a torrential rain.
This thing cannot be completely solved by software, so people can only adapt to the machine, let people perform the required movements as much as possible, and adjust the speed of the movements to coordinate with later operations.
But people can't move too fast, so they have to extract frames and speed up the movements, which requires that the speed of your movements can be captured well enough.
At the same time, in order to cope with the immature computer special effects, people still need to make certain adjustments to the movement speed. It won't work if it's too fast or too slow.
This places high demands on the actor's performance. You can't act like you've fallen into the water and struggle randomly. You must make designed actions.
At the same time, you have to dodge the fast-attacking bullets in a decent way. The key is that your movement speed must be coordinated. It took Wang Xu a long time to fully master the difficulty.
Thanks to John's skills as a dancer, his body flexibility and coordination are very good, and his limb flexibility is beyond words. Under the guidance of Wang Xu, after a lot of practice and dozens of NGs, he finally mastered it. This classic shot was taken.
Finally, Wang Xu specially took John to the special effects department to let him see what all the hard work was for.
The smart movements, the cold eyes, the traces of bullets, the air burst effect caused by punches and kicks, and the flying pieces of clothes. The overall effect was so explosive that John, who participated in the performance, felt his scalp numb.
"Just for this shot, I think this film is worth the price of admission. It's great, it's great." John was so excited when he looked at the demo of the finished film on the computer that he almost danced and cheered.
When he came to China this time, at the beginning, it was purely to make some money. He is running out of money. He hasn't received a movie role for a long time. Being a Hollywood star requires maintaining some decent expenses. He has been unable to make ends meet for a long time. If this continues, bankruptcy may be his only way out.
This opportunity from New Line is not considered good, but the investment of 20 million is really a lot. It can be considered a B-level investment. There are not many opportunities like this in Hollywood. With his current fame and status, it is considered a blessing to have a film like this come to his doorstep.
But the film was going to be shot in China, so he had no idea what it was like there, and he didn't even have any impression of where China was. I have seen Chinese people, there are quite a lot of them in Chinatown, but I have never really come into contact with the people there.
He even went to have a Chinese meal, but it didn't seem to help his understanding of China.
Chinese food and kung fu were his only impressions of China, but it was said that those things were from Xiangjiang, but this time they were filmed in mainland China.
He specifically found some Chinese-language films from mainland China to watch, including many award-winning European films. Backwardness, poverty, and dark skies made John feel like he was living in the Middle Ages. This was John's first impression of China.
His agent analyzed it for him for a long time and persuaded him to take the play. Finally, he warned him that if he continued to make ends meet, he would have to sleep on the street. Then I did countless psychological construction for him, telling him that everything was arranged by someone, just treat him as an adventure in the rainforest, and there was nothing to be afraid of.
This is what finally made him decide to take such an adventure. Yes, it was an adventure. This was his basic understanding.
As for the reason, there is no other reason. It is to make money, not to be shabby. It is the same for people from any country. It is not a problem to give up for five buckets of rice.
But from his heart, he really doesn’t think that China can make any excellent movies, let alone science fiction movies. The few movies he has seen are all about old stories, the colors may be beautiful, and the use of lenses is also very good. , but it’s just an ordinary feature film, not interesting.
Science fiction, do they know what science fiction is? He didn't even take the time to find out who Wang Xu was. And when Wang Xu became famous in Chou Country and his identities as a scientist and an artist overlapped, he had already arrived in China and entered a martial arts school to start studying.
As an actor, John is very dedicated. In other words, it may be his professionalism that supports him coming here to make movies.
But when he walked into the Changping base for the first time, he saw a future street scene that was almost fake and real, saw various semi-old roadside facilities, got real guns made of steel, and various high-tech tools widely used in the crew. Equipment, he suddenly felt that his adventure was not that risky.
Of course, now he knows that there is nothing risky in coming to China. The place where he stays is actually a rural area, but it still has complete modern civilization, with electricity, water, and even air conditioning in the place where he lives.
Although the house looks like a temporary house, the internal facilities are very complete. Although the phone cannot make international long distance calls, it can be received. It is almost equivalent to a three-star hotel, and the things may be newer and better.
Overall, this is a developing modern city, with construction sites everywhere. It doesn't look so clean and tidy, but it's not as dilapidated and gloomy as imagined.
As for the movie itself, John doesn't know very well. He is just acting according to his own understanding. Although he is a villain, he appears for a long time and there are many places that can be explored.
John read the script carefully, read the content on GIT, and thoroughly studied the various background settings. Although he has not registered a GIT account, he is confident that his understanding of this movie universe is as good as anyone else's. .
The story is very good and the background is very good, but a good story does not mean a good movie. The filming here does not seem to be much different from filming in the ugly country, except that the pressure is a bit high, the number of reshoots is a bit too many, and there are delays from time to time. It was off duty time, which made John a little unhappy.
But there are not many ugly people here. Although the director Wang Xu looks very thin and has no muscles at all, he has personally seen him pick up an unlucky guy who fell down with one hand and throw it on the mat next to him.
Even though the guy was a bit skinny, but he was thrown aside so easily, that fighting force John didn't want to try.
He also saw with his own eyes that the thin Chinese heroine accidentally kicked off the guardrail next to her while filming. He later went to observe it specifically and found that it was made of hard wood and he couldn't break it at all.
Sure enough, Chinese people are all good at kung fu, and those market rumors may not all be made up.
The props and guns here were all made of steel at first. It is said that it was to show the real heaviness. Later, it was found that many people could not look cool smoothly, so they were changed to plastic.
But the two leading actors can both hold a dozen pounds of weight in one hand and lift it flatly without even a little shaking.
John also tried it himself, but he couldn't do it. He could do it by raising it horizontally, but if it took a little longer, his muscles would shake, and then he wouldn't be able to support it anymore.
He also worked out every day in Chou Country. Although he was not a muscle expert, his absolute strength was not small, and he knew the relationship between muscles and strength well.
But here, he doubted his own knowledge. Wang Xu and Wang Fei's power seemed a bit unreasonable, but it was hard for him to ask.
Wang Fei rarely stays on the set, and the heroine's roles are not particularly large. Most of them are fighting scenes, and she goes home after finishing her work.
Wang Xu stayed here for a long time, and sometimes stayed in the reception dormitory at night. Wang Xu could speak English, and the communication between him and Wang Xu was smooth.
Therefore, John secretly found time to ask Wang Xu once, but Wang Xu just smiled mysteriously, shook his head, and then changed the subject without saying anything.
This was not what John expected. The more mysterious something is, the less likely it is to be told to others.
John didn't speak Chinese, and the translator assigned to him by the crew would only appear when he was working. After work, no one would take care of him. He wanted to ask someone but didn't know how to ask, and he was very sad and scratching his head.
Well, this is no different from a Hollywood crew, mainly because it was Wang Xu's idea.
According to Chinese customs these days, when foreign guests come, they must be accompanied throughout the entire process to make them feel at home.
But Wang Xu didn't think it was necessary. It wasn't like he didn't give him money, it was hundreds of thousands of dollars. It was his own time to call it a day, so let's not disturb others.
However, Wang Xu sometimes takes a few ugly actors to his bar at night to let them relax.
They also thoughtfully gave me a free bottle of beer. If you want to drink it later, you can buy it yourself, and then arrange a vehicle to bring it back in the evening. There are no dormitories in Dongsi.
The main thing is that the filming location is in the suburbs, at the foot of a mountain, next to the aqueduct and the capital's water source. The scenery here is nice during the day, with green mountains and clear water, but at night there is really nothing to see.
In the future, this film and television city may be an attraction, but now, isn't it still used for filming movies?
Since he couldn't ask, he had to observe by himself. Taking advantage of his free time, he really observed Wang Xu a lot.
But the result was that he became more and more confused. Under careful observation, he discovered more and more unbelievable things about Wang Xu.
For example, he saw with his own eyes that this man stepped on the wall and climbed over the two-meter-high wall with a gentle jog. I also saw this man angrily kicking a Coke can into a trash can twenty meters away.
He had a guess that this person must know kung fu, the kind that is not shown to the public. Although he didn't know if it could really be like the one in the movie, at least it was the legendary and mysterious real kung fu.
Sure enough, it is China, and there are still some ancient mysterious things left. Wang Xu must be a person with ancient inheritance, that must be the case.
Finally, one day, he asked the martial arts director who explained the moves to him. He asked quietly during the filming break. The martial arts director and his team all gave a positive answer and clearly told him that what Wang Xu knew was real Kung Fu. They Can't beat it.
At this moment, John felt that he knew a big secret about Wang Xu, the kind that most people didn't know. He felt secretly proud of himself. This was the unique pleasure that comes from peeking into other people's privacy, which made him feel happy for several days.
He didn't have many friends here, and he couldn't speak the same language as most of the staff. Fortunately, there were some actors from Chou Country. These people quickly formed their own small group, drinking and chatting together every night after work.
It's very convenient to drink here. Just ask the staff and they can buy it for them. It is said that they can drive to a small town in ten minutes. They haven't gone out yet, mainly because they are afraid of danger.
They are all from Chou country, and they are all unfamiliar with the place where they were born. In fact, they also have the urge to meet fellow villagers. John really doesn't have any airs, and he is really good at getting along with these low-level actors who don't have a good time.
When new people come, he will organize a cocktail party to welcome them. Barbecues are easy to do here. Wang Xu even arranged for people to make a barbecue rack according to the customs of Chou Country. It is not the kind we grill mutton skewers. It's the kind with an iron net and grilling steaks.
So these people began to have three small barbecues a week. According to their salary and exchange rate, these ugly people can afford to eat barbecue steaks all day long in China.
Therefore, although the lives of these people are a bit boring, they are not difficult. As for domestic actors, they also have their own life circles, but they are also invited to do activities together from time to time.
Looking for some barbecue chefs to come over and hold an event is not a complicated matter even in Changping. The overtime work on Wang Xu's side is not serious, at least it is not too much compared to the Xiangjiang crew. Therefore, there is leisure from time to time in the evening, so From time to time, someone will organize some activities or something.
Chinese people are still very friendly to foreign friends, even decades later. This is the way of hospitality passed down from their ancestors. Many people think this habit is bad and feel bad.
But Wang Xu doesn’t think this is a waste, but rather a good tradition. This is a habit formed after considering the larger picture. If your village treats guests well, more people will naturally come and go. Business will prosper, and villages and towns will develop better.
Rather than simply looking at whether he has lost a meal, of course Wang Xu does not encourage himself to go hungry and invite others to eat meat pie, which is to make someone look fat.
Therefore, these foreign actors actually have a pretty good life on the set. They barbecue by themselves, and Chinese people also barbecue when they treat guests. I just don’t know if these people will get angry.
John soon became the leader of these Ugly actors. He was a small boy, but he was willing to lead his younger brothers to have fun. Naturally, he was welcomed by all the Ugly actors. This is human nature and is the same all over the world.
Since he had his own team, John has often asked his younger brothers to help inquire about Wang Xu's deeds. He always felt that asking questions all by himself would be too weird and would attract others' attention, so he had to be careful.
Then, so many people were asking about Wang Xu, which made the secretaries who had been following Wang Xu immediately become nervous. What were these foreigners going to do? So I quickly reported it to the boss overnight, which made everyone extremely nervous at the time.
Fortunately, it was soon investigated secretly. These secretaries all knew English, and they had no intention of hiding anything.
After a little inquiry, I knew the origin of the matter, and I couldn't help but laugh and cry. Okay, this misunderstanding doesn't matter, let them figure it out.
Who is not an ancient inheritor, Wang Xu, no problem.
It doesn't matter whether you say he has traditional martial arts, special powers, or he is a land god. The more rumors spread about this kind of thing, the less problematic it becomes.
Westerners are just like this, oh oh oh, by the way, no wonder John believes in that cult, he is really able to figure it out.
The higher-ups are relieved, these people have done their research and come to the conclusion.
Wang Xu is a very mysterious person, with fighting power that ordinary people will never have.
Examples of combat that have been confirmed by many people include being able to lift a person with one hand and climbing over a two-meter-high wall in two steps. Some people heard that he once knocked down more than thirty gangsters with dicks in one minute.
Even his fiancée should be an ancient inheritor with a similar background. More than one person had witnessed her kicking off an inch-thick hardwood railing.
Moreover, his family is very powerful and has a lot of influence in the imperial capital. It is said that the ambassador and counselor of the Embassy of the Chou Kingdom are all guests of his family.
Wang Xu naturally knew nothing about these things. He was still too busy with the film. Directors are really busy, especially directors like Wang Xu who want to make something.
This film actually requires a lot of foreign faces, and most of them are characters in the virtual world. Building security guards, police officers on duty, homeless people on the roadside, psychic prophets, police officers flying helicopters, etc. These are actually all part-timers.
Fortunately, in the setting, the team must avoid crowds as much as possible, which makes the selection of movie scenes a lot easier. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome to shoot a scene where the streets are full of European and American faces.
Even in the 1990s, it was not difficult to find a few foreign faces in the imperial capital. Many international students came to learn Chinese, and many employees of foreign companies relied on this to earn pocket money. The main market was not film and television, but It's an advertisement, and Chinese people now recognize it.
This is easy to do. Just come and take a photo and leave. Just pay a few hundred RMB.
But there are also many characters who need to participate in the battle, have lines, and play a role in connecting the plot. These people are all responsible for New Line. They selected them and sent them to China together.
Of course, these people will not stay on the crew all the time, and they don't have many shots, so on average, each person only comes for about a week and leaves after filming. In terms of arrangements, Wang Xu will arrange the scenes in the virtual world to be shot together as much as possible. .
Some people like to start with the easy part and then the hard part, but Wang Xu always likes to start with the hard part and then the easy part. Therefore, many of his fighting scenes are shot from the very beginning. In fact, this is not a good habit, because once injured, it will affect the filming of the drama.
But Wang Xu did it anyway. His reason was that if he was really injured, it would be easier to replace him. It was a bit unkind, but it was a practical necessity.
But to be honest, there is really nothing dangerous in this film, and the probability of injury is not high, well, excluding the dedicated guy who has broken skin. The action scenes themselves are not dangerous, and those who need to be beaten are also done by stand-ins. The filming is done first and the filming is done first.
Injuries seem to be a normal thing in movies these days. It is not uncommon for actors to quit the crew due to injuries, and it is not uncommon for actors to be replaced for reshoots.
Although these words choked Robert speechless, they also secretly appealed to his taste. The director had to be ruthless and consider the film's perspective. This was his consistent thought, and Wang Xu made him very satisfied.
John spent most of his spare time with these people, but they didn't stay long. People came and went, and he gradually became a Huaxia expert in the eyes of these people.
And while they were talking to each other, the news about Wang Xu spread more and more widely. Religious people also love to preach. This is really a cultural characteristic.
These Ugly Chinese actors are all registered formal actors, but most of them have been hanging around at the bottom of the entertainment industry. They usually live by doing odd jobs and occasionally taking on a job. They are not much better than the later Hengdian Date, but their acting skills are generally better than those of those big actors. They are much more powerful, and many of them have received formal training.
Of course, these people would not come to Wang Xu's crew for any artistic ideals. They traveled thousands of miles to play a small role with few lines. If they could not increase their fame, they could only do it for profit.
The price offered by New Line is quite high, a few thousand dollars or tens of thousands of dollars, which is not a small income for them.
But among this group of people, there is one exception.
She was a pretty girl with a big mouth and a silly smile.
She used to be a model when she was little, and last year she played a little policeman in Jim Carrey's blockbuster "The Man in Disguise," the girl who was coaxed to dance the samba.
However, the film has not been released yet, and it is said that it is still in the post-production phase.
But her work never stopped. This time, she passed the interview for a small role in New Line to play an agent.
This was modified by Wang Xu, because in the new setting, Smith is not a simple computer anti-virus program, but a real human being. Therefore, Wang Xu did not conceptually make it into the standard form of black sunglasses.
One of them was a woman, a somewhat crazy and perverted woman. She chose betrayal just for the illusion of a so-called good life. After betraying her, she was extremely cruel to the real world, which is also a human being.
However, this woman does have a lot of roles. She should be said to be the second most important villain, even more than Cipher.
Wang Xu didn't expect that she would take the initiative to play such a crazy villain. She was really not afraid of ruining her image.
Hmm, okay, it seems like she hasn’t released a movie yet, and she doesn’t have much image to speak of, but isn’t she a model? Don’t models need to have an image?
Although there seem to be quite a few Hollywood actresses doing this, they are usually in big productions or something, and they are not afraid of pretending to be ugly or crazy, just to gain a position.
But for a little-known small crew like Wang Xu, although the investment is not low, it is shot in China after all. This alone is enough to interrupt most people. Those who come here are usually willing to give up for five buckets of rice. That kind of thing, but this guy’s income was definitely not low when he was a model.
Because this beauty is called Cameron Diaz.
She came a lot later than John, mainly because this role didn't have any fighting scenes, so there was no need for any training.
When Wang Xu looked at the cast list recommended by New Line, he felt that this woman looked familiar, but he was indeed a bit blind to Western women. This woman's movies were not the kind that Wang Xu was passionate about in his previous life, so he did not recognize her immediately.
But when I saw the English name, I felt that no matter how I spelled it, it felt more familiar. Then I looked at the Chinese translation and realized who this girl was.
Then she asked New Line to repeatedly confirm that she was indeed willing to play such a villain role, and that she did not mind the almost entirely negative qualities of this role. She only got it after an interview and beating a heroine in a plasma film. this role.
That’s okay. Although I don’t understand it, but since she is willing, it’s no problem. This woman has no acting skills now, but this role doesn’t really require acting skills. She is a somewhat cruel vase character, and most of the time she is It's cold-faced and has no depth to speak of.
Wang Xu naturally didn't care. Speaking of which, when I take stock of this film in the future, it would be quite interesting to find that there are so many top stars.
Wang Xu didn't go to pick up Cameron. Even though she was a beauty, she was still a famous model, and her figure had made Wang Xu think about it in his previous life.
But in this life, he is the director, he can, ahem, forget it, he is almost too busy, even Wang Fei is complaining that he has no time to go home.
However, there are not many female characters in this film. Even Liu Xiaoqing can only play a cannon fodder passerby who shows his face. There are too few roles with names and surnames.
Therefore, Wang Fei took Cameron back to play with her best friends. With Whitney and Little Fox, the number of named women in this film was complete.
Wang Xu told Wang Fei his doubts, and Wang Fei naturally asked about it directly. In fact, Wang Fei was also curious as to why a good model had to play a boring villain.
Cameron's answer was beyond Wang Xu's expectation, because she actually took out a copy of Wang Xu's "The Matrix" and a stack of printed manuscripts. She actually knew this character a long time ago, because she had I have read novels.
And she was very dissatisfied that Wang Xu wrote such a female character who was brainless and greedy for the so-called happy life, so she angrily wrote a fan novel for this female character.
She has reset her life for this character. She is not a simple traitor, she is a real fighter. Everything about her is a disguise, just to be able to enter the inside of the system and completely destroy the matrix.
She has even posted her fans on GIT and forums, but there has been little response and no waves at all.
After all, even though it’s only been a few months, fan novels and fan settings have really hit the screen. And in the male-dominated GIT community, no one really cares about the story of a female minor character.
This made her even more angry, and suddenly, this time the agent told her about the opportunity for such a role, and she decided to use this opportunity to scold the author.
Tell him that not all women are like that, or that women are not modern female representatives. He should not insist on portraying such a vulgar woman in a story with few female characters. This is Discrimination, blatant discrimination.
Okay, Wang Fei was shocked, her eyes were as wide as copper bells, (tell me you didn’t sing), okay, this sister has something, support, must support, beat the male-centrism Wang Xu.
The few girls who were watching the excitement laughed and cheered for Cameron, even raising a small flag for her.

(See you tomorrow, the fourth 10,000-word update. Since everyone has no feelings for the group, I won’t create it)
