Global Movie Emperor

In the morning, a glass of milk, a fried egg, and finally a common sandwich. The statement that Britain is a culinary hell is definitely an exaggeration, but the single recipe and the simplicity of the recipe are in line with the rumors. At least during the few days Lu Ze has been in the UK, breakfast is basically He hadn't changed anything, and his sense of taste had basically returned to zero, and he had lost his appetite. He basically didn't touch this colorful breakfast.

Elena thought that her cooking was not delicious, which made Lu Ze angry. She felt a little anxious and took a small piece of Lu Ze's leftover food and stuffed it into her mouth. The taste was not strange, so she sat down depressed. In his seat, he recalled whether there was anything that made Lu Ze unhappy when the two of them got along yesterday.

She didn't think about Lu Ze catching a cold. After all, wasn't Mickey just sitting at the dining table eating and drinking? Mickey felt Elena's gaze and seemed to be aware of her thoughts. He chuckled and shook his head.

"He just has a bad appetite for Chinese food. He can't stand it if he doesn't have a different breakfast for a few days. But it's not difficult to understand. In a small Chinese shop, there are seven or eight kinds of fillings for dumplings. How can they There’s too much to eat, and I guess I won’t be able to stand it after I stay in China for a while.”

"What should we do? He has a cold, how can he not eat?"

"Just starve him for two days and he'll be fine. It depends on whether he eats or not. In Chinese terms, it means being poor. Eat what's yours and don't worry about him."

Elena's concern for Lu Ze was only out of respect for the teacher, and she had no other thoughts. Mickey knew who she was interested in, so he did not make fun of her concern and concentrated on the table. When the two of them are alone, a successful scumbag naturally knows that it is better to talk less now.

He is eating grass from the side, but he really doesn't dare to eat it with Elena. It's okay to be responsible, but if it's just a one-night breeze, Depp will definitely twist his head off, and then go to Manchester United's home court to kick his head off. Pass to De Gea or Pogba.

…

"Good morning Mr. Lu."

The villagers of Irkruburg are very simple. When they see Lu Ze out for a walk, they always greet Lu Ze enthusiastically. Along the way, they never stop saying hello to each other, and many villagers give Lu Ze some eggs. And vegetables, of course, it's obvious who they're meant for.

After walking a long way, he took a look at the step count on his phone. It was already more than 10,000 steps. Lu Ze decided to go back the same way, but he heard an SUV honking its horn on the roadside, and then stopped in front of Lu Ze.

"Hey friend, where is Mrs. Winston's home?"

A man wearing sunglasses lowered his car window and was chewing gum while talking to Lu Ze. He seemed a little rude, but that was not the point. Lu Ze glanced inside and saw a middle-aged woman sitting in the co-pilot. He already knew this.

"A cast member from The Effect?"

"Did you hear that too?"

"Of course, I'm the leading actor."

The man thought Lu Ze was a villager or resident here. After all, he was recommended by Sol. He only got the script and didn't know much about the other members of the crew. Who in their right mind would have thought that a European director would find an Asian face? Be a leading actor? The man felt a little embarrassed for a moment. He said oh~, took off his glasses and stretched out his palms.

"Sorry, Chris Lester, this is Ms. Pem, nice to meet you, would you like a ride?"

"Lu Ze, there's no need to distinguish between surname and first name, just call me that. If you want a ride...thank you."

On the way back, Chris complained to some extent that the filming time was too hasty. Even if there were not many scenes and no technical content, it would not be possible to start filming three days after receiving the script.

Regarding his complaint, Lu Ze could only smile and then pretended not to hear it. Of course, he also felt that the filming was a bit rushed. Even he, the leading actor, only had access to the script for less than a week. If it were not for the enhancements in the system, , he really couldn't get enough of this difficult role to play within a week.

But Mickey also has his difficulties in doing this. First of all, he can't afford it due to lack of funds. Secondly, except for the character Lu Ze and a little girl, the other characters are really simple. So simple that as long as you have some acting skills, you can get them. Acting, after all, as long as you have the right mentality, you can get through any filming.

In the entire script, it is difficult to play only the male protagonist. It can be said that the entire script is a one-man show by the protagonist. This requires the protagonist to have strong acting skills. This is why Mickey found Lu Ze. Others can do the job. He couldn't find an actor for this role.

Back at the house, Mickey shook hands with the two actors, got to know each other briefly, and discussed their salaries. There was not much to say. After the two nodded in agreement and signed the contract, they got busy. Started my own business.

The two actors acted a little cleverly. They found a seat and sat down. They took out their scripts and read them slowly. They didn't have any feelings about Mickey's contempt. After all, they were just filming MVs and acting as stand-ins, and Mickey was not considered a stand-in. Down and out, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. They are not on the same level at all. They are already very satisfied to be able to star in Mickey's movie. Even if there is a glimmer of hope of getting ahead, they will be excited about it.

After a while, the person who delivered the props from Klelev also came, accompanied by two photographers from Klelev. Here, Mickey was holding back his heartache. After paying the rent for the props, a Mercedes-Benz S-Class also arrived. Following the prop car into the yard, a cute little girl in a pink skirt jumped out of the car.

"Hey! Mickey! Are you okay?"

"Hello, little angel! I'm fine. Do you miss me?"

Mickey held the child and acted very affectionately. Lu Ze was drinking coffee in the room. He was a little surprised by Mickey's behavior. His face seemed... kind of like a father.

"My dear, it's Fanny!"

The two little transparent people who had been reading the script honestly couldn't help but screamed when they saw the little girl. This made Lu Ze a little puzzled and asked in confusion: "Is this child famous?"

"Of course, Fanny already has quite a reputation in the UK, and the most important thing is that she is Mr. Taylor's daughter."

"Pfft! Daughter?"

Lu Ze never expected that Mickey, a bastard who usually didn't show off his integrity, would be more than one step faster than Lu Ze's pace of life. Looking at this cute little girl, Lu Ze suddenly had the idea to agree to grow old together, you But I secretly felt a sense of being cheated, and even a little...jealous.

From what Chris said, Lu Ze learned that it seemed that this little girl was born to Mickey and his girlfriend when they were in college. It is normal in Europe to get married after having a baby, but love is bound to have its bumps and bumps, and there are also many births. Mickey and his girlfriend are one of the parents who break up after having children.

As for whether Mickey's girlfriend is married and whether the child has a stepfather, Chris doesn't dare to say more, but judging from his expression, he probably does.

Perhaps because she inherited her father's talent for movies, little Fanny showed amazing acting talents since she was a child. Later, she played the second female lead in Mickey's debut film. Due to her cute appearance and top acting skills among child stars, she was famous in the UK and even in the United Kingdom. Europe has gained a certain reputation.

"Come on, baby, I'll take you to meet my friend, a traditional Chinese man. Remember to call him uncle."

Mickey picked up the girl, not to mention the love and affection. Lu Ze almost crushed the coffee cup when he saw it. He actually wanted a child, but he has not been able to realize his dream in these years, so he can only look after other people's children. The old Song family The big fat boy is one of them, but how can a fleshy and naughty little boy compare with a cute little girl? Comrade Lao Lu is indeed partial at this moment.

The little girl is very cute, with dark eyes and black hair, but her facial features are obviously more like that of a Caucasian, and she has a good personality. She sounds like an uncle, and Lu Ze can't help but smile.

At the same time, Lu Ze was also very good at coaxing children. Soon, the two of them were playing together. The other girl with sunglasses who came out of the Mercedes-Benz was the child's mother, which made Mickey very embarrassed. Because of this in Europe, Couples who broke up due to personality incompatibility and other issues can still be friends, and the same goes for Mickey and the kid's mother. However, the kid's mother seemed dissatisfied with the script, so she didn't give Mickey a good look. This was the reason for Mickey's embarrassment.

The staff who sent the props quickly moved the props, and the crew could officially shoot. However, the first scene was not shot in this room, but in a primary school seventeen miles away.

Because today is the weekend and the school is not in session, and Mickey also graduated from that elementary school, the principal of the school agreed to lend Mickey to filming for free during the weekend, provided that the classroom must be restored to its original state after filming.

"OK, everyone is here, let's go, Lu Ze, come down! What kind of Mercedes-Benz are you in? Go drive the Raptor and follow me!"

Mickey grabbed Lu Ze's collar and threw it back, then he hugged Fanny and got into the car with a smile. The relationship between the two brothers also collapsed. I just saw Fanny and Lu Ze playing so well. I haven't seen this in a long time. His daughter's biological father was naturally jealous. If Lu Ze hadn't seen that he still had a child, he would have fought back, but now... he could only helplessly follow Elena into the car.

Three cars equipped with filming equipment set off towards the school. About half an hour later, they arrived at the school gate. At this moment, there were many cars parked at the school gate. A group of children were playing together, and parents also gathered together to chat. .

These people are none other than the villagers of Irkru Castle, who had previously promised Mickey to lend their children to the crew as extras.

"Hey Mickey! Remember to give my son a few extra shots!"

"And my daughter!"

Mickey was busy thanking these childhood playmates who had now become parents, and his eyes were red. After all, the icing on the cake was nothing compared to providing help in times of need. These people could take nothing from him when he was down and took care of his children. Come to help, which moved Mickey, who fully understood the dangers of people's hearts.

This also made Mickey determined. Even if it was delayed, he would fulfill the wishes of these parents and give these children three to five more seconds of footage.

Perhaps none of these parents want their children to become actors. They make this request simply because they hope that their children's faces can be clearly seen in the movie and they can leave interesting memories. This request is not too much. Mickey will also try his best to satisfy you.

After distributing candies to the small group of children, everyone entered the school gate. The school security guard performed a routine safety check on everyone and then let everyone in.

Two photographers set up a camera in a class provided by the school. Mickey became the king of the children. After distributing candies to the children, he told the children a story and repeatedly emphasized not to look at the camera.

"Lu Ze, these are your clothes. Do you need help?"

"I think...it shouldn't be necessary. Thank you Elena, then I'll go change my clothes first."

After taking the clothes and some simple cosmetics handed over by Elena, Lu Ze entered the class next door. The moment he closed the door, the class instantly became quiet.

He opened the student's bench and sat down, took off his clothes, and put on a white shirt and leather shoes. The leather shoes were a bit inferior and didn't feel very good on the feet. I stood on tiptoe and lightly kicked the toes of the shoes to feel comfortable.

I simply combed my hair, slowly buttoned up my shirt, crossed my cuffs with wrist pins, took off my jewelry and put it away gently, looked at the small mirror on the makeup box, held the tie with my thumb and index finger and moved it left and right, and finally Correct...

"Wow..."

After putting on the vest, the gray suit was raised back, his arms passed through the sleeves, the size was just right, and he adjusted the collar. His face was serious and calm, and his temperament also changed, like a rusty sword being re-edged... A sharp light appeared in the trance. .

Maybe a man picks up the powder and pats it on his face, which has a somewhat feminine temperament, but at this moment Lu Ze can't see a trace of femininity at all, and simply regards it as a job, neither liking it nor hating it, seriously Cover up the flaws on your face one by one, not for appearance, but to better complete your work.

Gradually... his eyes were empty, his emotions were flowing, and every movement was full of mechanization. Just like his former nickname, he became a real performance machine. Until the work at hand was finished, he put away the cosmetics and picked up the script. , turn to the scene about to be shot, and then...

Infuse soul.

A soul named Kyle who only lives in the script.

…

"OK kids! Please go to your seats and remember not to look at the camera. If you are very good, everyone will get a golden arches super children's meal! Super! You know what I mean, right? With dolls That kind of thing! Get ready, kids, Fanny, you have to join us too...Hey Lu Ze, you look...a little different from just now."

"Because I value it."

Lu Ze walked out of the class next door. It is not difficult for adults to see that Lu Ze's temperament has changed significantly. His words have also become concise. He is not as talkative as he was in life. He looks handsome in a suit, and his whole person has not changed. Instead of being cold, he became extremely, very focused.

Under the gaze of everyone, he strode into the class and got on the podium, then walked back and stood at the door again, then walked slowly onto the podium, then returned to the door, and finally returned to the podium with steady steps.

There was a glass on the lectern table, which was filled with 70% of water. Lu Ze picked it up and took a sip a little at first to moisten his lips. The second sip of water dropped by about two centimeters, and he probably only drank it. He drank half of the water in his mouth, and drank half the cup with the third sip. Then he pointed to the mineral water bottle in Elena's hand, took it, filled it up again, and threw the bottle back.

He raised his hand, put it down again, knocked on the table, put it down again, tapped the blackboard with the second knuckle of his index finger, put it down again, put his hands on the tabletop, raised it again, put his elbows on the tabletop, raised it again, and hit it He snapped his fingers, shook his head, and finally adjusted his tie.

The corners of his mouth raised, and then he retracted his smile, then smiled again, and then retracted it, but each smile was wider than the previous one. He walked back and forth on the podium a few times, and finally closed his eyes, opening and closing his lips slightly.

"What is he doing? He looks... like a freak..."

"Don't talk nonsense, he is not a freak, he is a monster..."

Mickey's ex-girlfriend studied dance, and now she has become famous. She has become an excellent ballet artist and works part-time as Fanny's manager. She just knows nothing about acting. Under normal circumstances, she would not use the word "freak" to describe her. Others, but around Mickey, she was still prone to slack-jawing and looking at Lu Ze with a puzzled look on her face.

The two transparent little actors didn't know what Lu Ze was doing, but they felt confused. It was fine before, but from this moment on, they felt...this Asian actor seemed to have something.

Mitch was probably the only one in the field who could see some of Lu Ze's skills, but even his own guess made him shocked.

This scene was very important. It was originally planned to be filmed next week, but because his father kicked him out of the house in advance, and it happened to be the weekend, it was better to choose a different day, so he came directly to film it.

He actually doesn't have too many expectations for Lu Ze's performance level. After all, he has been out of acting for a year. It is really difficult to maintain his condition without filming for a year. As long as Lu Ze's performance level does not drop drastically, Mickey will be thankful. , but now... he seems to have thought wrong?

Because he had asked Lu Ze to come to the filming, he had been holding back his curiosity and not asking how Lu Ze was doing. After all, the state could be restored. Give Lu Ze some time. As long as such an excellent actor is on the show, , he will be able to regain his feeling soon, and he can still wait for this little time.

But the result? Lu Ze didn't follow the normal path at all! What do you mean the more you rest, the better you become? It is true that only through actual combat can you improve your strength. Even if you follow TV shows at home all day long, you will not improve at Lu Ze's level. This is why Mickey is puzzled.

As a supply station for outstanding actors in Hollywood, there are countless European acting masters. Mickey has met many top actors over the years, but he has never seen an actor who can decide on micro-expressions and small movements on the spot. You know In a major performance, which actor would not have to think over and over again and act out the micro-expressions and movements he had decided on hundreds of times in front of the mirror?

Whether you can understand the character in a week is a question. At most, you can only remember a line. Today, Mickey didn't want to finish filming this scene. He just wanted Lu Ze to come here to find a feeling. If he can pass it, thank God. If he can't, Come back next weekend.

But what about Lu Ze? Not only does it give you the unique skill of quickly setting small movements and micro-expressions, but it even adds some big movements of character expression that deepen the impression of the movie on the basis of the original protagonist's character in the script. This is fucking unbelievable.

If this quick decision didn't work, forget it. If it worked... He really wanted to ask Lu Ze, are you still a fucking human? If you are so awesome, why don't you join the Strongest Brain?

But he never imagined that there was such a bastard in the system, who had brutally oppressed Lu Ze for more than three months before Lu Ze received this drama.

He was given a week to read the script, which was pretty good. How many days did the system give him? Two days! Forty-eight points! Then go directly to the play. Within forty-eight hours, not only do you have to read the script, but you also have to memorize the lines. What’s even more frightening is that you also have to have a thorough understanding of the character you are playing and a general grasp of other characters. What about micro-expressions? You have to make quick decisions before filming starts, and then go straight to the scene.

Then you have to shoot with a robot like a big glass ball that is as stable as an old dog. If you make any mistakes, you will get a small beating. If you fail the filming, you will get a big beating and a lot of bitter tears... don't mention it again!

The seven days given by Mickey were enough for Lu Ze to finish reading the script, ride a bicycle for more than a thousand kilometers from Lu Hua to the Imperial Capital, take a bath, have a big massage, and find a technician for a full massage with extra hours.

Don't really blame Lu Ze for playing a cheat, it's just because the system is too scary, and Lu Ze doesn't want to act like a monster, but his strength really doesn't allow it! He also wants to question the system and see what trouble you have caused me!

In just three minutes, Lu Ze opened his eyes, walked to the door, took the water bottle in Elena's hand and took a sip. He pressed his throat with his index and middle fingers, coughed twice, and made an OK gesture to Mickey.

"Okay?"

"let's start."

"Lu Ze..."

"Um?"

"This time...you will surprise me, right?"

Seeing Mickey asking such a serious question for the first time, Lu Ze lowered his head to straighten the collar of his shirt and answered without thinking.

"meeting."

"Chris hits the board!"

"The Effect, Act 1, Scene 1! Begin!"

…

The camera moved from bottom to top, the clean tiles... The black leather shoes were hurriedly walking, and the gray suit looked shabby due to its old age. With a gentle smile on his face, Kyle walked to the door of the class and knocked lightly and quickly. He knocked on the door panel three times, then slowed down his steps, stood on the podium, like a soldier, stamped the floor with his heels on the last step, turned around, and lightly clapped his hands twice to attract the attention of the noisy students below.

"Good morning, classmates."

"Good morning Kyle~"

The students below were quite cooperative and calmed down after saying hello to Kyle. Kyle was very satisfied with the effect and smiled wider. He took off his suit jacket and shook it. He made a pop and put the suit away. He put it on the back of the chair, unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt, and rolled it up three times. His hands seemed to be sweaty, and he wiped them on the trouser line. He put his fist to his mouth and coughed lightly.

"Okay students, I don't know if you have forgotten yesterday's questions, so I will give you a few questions to test you first. Please take out your notebooks and write the correct answers on them."

10-7=?

3=4=?

8-6=?

Adults naturally know these questions, but for these children who have just entered elementary school, these questions are enough to stump them. One by one, they clasp their fingers and frown, looking bitter and resentful. Only a few of them The child can write fluently in books. As for whether the answer is correct or not... I really can't say.

Every time a question came up, Kyle would habitually look back and then write another question until his eyes noticed a girl in the fourth row. She never looked up at the blackboard, and she never took out her notebook or pencil. He just kept picking at his fingers.

After Kyle asked all the questions, she still focused on her fingers, so she was obviously not a smart child who waited for the teacher to finish all the questions and wrote them out in one breath. However, Kyle did not call her and capped the marker. He picked up the water glass and drank half a sip. Instead of swallowing it directly, he used his tongue to push the water out of the gap between his teeth and let the water stay between his lips and teeth for a while before finally swallowing it.

He entered among the students and looked at the answers written by the children. He did not explain them one by one. Instead, after walking around them all, he asked a student who got the answer correct to answer how he calculated it until the last question...

"Hey Judy, what's the answer to this question?"

The little girl raised her eyes and glanced at the blackboard. She seemed a little overwhelmed and lowered her head again. Fortunately, she picked up the pencil and gently bit the iron hoop connecting the end of the pencil to the eraser.

"Judy, can you please answer, what is 4-2?"

She thought for a while, licked her lips to make them moist, and finally answered in an uncertain tone.

"6...?"

"Pfft."

Her answer made the children who knew this question laugh. The girls were okay. They covered their mouths and didn't make a sound, but narrowed their eyes like crescent moons. The more naughty boys were more unrestrained. The laughter is not disguised at all.

"Hey guys, give Judy some respect, okay? So, how did you get that result?"

She fell into the hesitation just now, and it took a while before she answered: "I don't know."

"You don't have to know, but I hope you can respect the teacher. Next time, I hope you can write the same answer as everyone else, even if it is wrong, OK?"

"But I don't think it makes sense..."

Kyle was just about to erase the numbers on the blackboard, but he still heard a reply as big as a mosquito. Suddenly his expression became much more serious. He put down the blackboard eraser, turned around and looked at the girl who was still biting the pencil, and finally sighed. He took a breath and waved his hand.

"OK, just now Judy raised a question that only adults would ask. Everyone should learn from her and learn to think more. Then I will answer Judy's question. What is the meaning of learning?"

"From the time you are three years old, you will go to kindergarten for some enlightenment, then go to elementary school and be exposed to some very simple knowledge, then go to middle school, where the knowledge you learn will become complicated and give you a headache, and finally go to college, so to speak. Ninety-five percent of the messy knowledge you learn will not be used in life, but isn’t knowledge important? This is wrong.”

"Knowledge will not make your body stronger or make you more attractive, but it will make your soul no longer aphasic. Your brain will become more flexible and you can think of solutions when you are in pain. This method allows you to see through all the emotional and sensory confusions and realize the most essential face of the world."

"Thus, you will have dignity and your own beliefs. You are different from pigs, dogs, cows, sheep, other people, and any other life in the world. You are you, an independent individual... … You deserve credit for your thinking and for using your knowledge to defend your rights, even against death.”

Kyle raised his right hand, curled up his ring finger and little finger, and pinched his thumb, index finger, and ring finger together. Whenever he said a sentence, he would always shake his right hand. He spoke very sonorously and convincingly.

"When you have knowledge, you may not be able to use it to gain money, fame, or power. You may not become a great person, and you may not be remembered by the world, but you will have the freedom of your soul."

"Really? As long as you have knowledge, you will get all this?"

Judy seemed to be interested and asked another question, keeping her eyes on Kyle and looking into his eyes, hoping that he could give her a definite answer.

But Kyle didn't expect that she would continue to ask. As soon as he raised the water glass and took a sip, his limbs stiffened and his face suddenly turned gloomy. He suddenly felt that he could not give Judy a firm answer... Put down the water glass. , pressing the rim of the cup with his palm, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I don't know...but I believe it will."

"..."
