The sun is mixed with the breath of the sea, the blue sky, the green shade of the trees, the clear sea... The horizon is high and far away, and the whole world is vast and vast underfoot. Come, as if the whole heart is opened up. Such a scene is almost impossible to see in New York or London. It is only the first side. San Diego, located on the west coast of the North American continent, has opened a warm embrace to welcome Renly's arrival.

Today is Friday, when the cast and crew officially meet for the first time. For the past week, Renly has spent all his time in the library, reviewing many books on World War II and the Pacific War; "The DVD of this classic series, revisited again, prepares for the upcoming shooting.

Closing the door of the taxi, patted the roof, turned around and looked at the bustling... camp, Renly's first reaction was "in the wrong place", shouldn't the first meeting of the crew Did you find a conference room to sit down and introduce yourself to each other or something? But it looks more like a campsite in front of you, and you can see many tents being set up in sight.

There were five or six management personnel scattered around the gate. They held writing boards in their hands. There were a few people around each of them. They picked up the dark gray backpack behind them. Lu Li stepped forward and found a team at random. There were only three people in front, and it was soon his turn, "Is this the 'Pacific War' crew? I was told..."

"Name?"

Renly's words were interrupted. He was about to open his mouth to answer, but he didn't expect the other party to be impatient at all. He continued to urge, "Name." That resolute attitude was a bit like a soldier, and an idea flashed in Renly's mind. And passed, but the words did not stop, and answered directly, "Hall."

The other party pointed to another person beside him, "Report to him starting with h." How many people are there in alphabetical order by surname?

Renly stepped aside again, lining up. This time, without waiting for the other party to ask, Renly said directly, "Hall." Then he saw the other party quickly glanced at the clipboard, "Hall, actor, report to Barracks No. 3."

Sure enough, this is the boot camp.

Before the recruits officially enter the battlefield, in order to avoid making low-level mistakes, not to mention killing themselves, but also killing their comrades in arms, they must pass the training of the recruit battalion. "Band of Brothers" also copied the model of the boot camp when filming, which not only allowed the actors to experience the feeling of real soldiers, but also allowed the actors to be professional enough in the performance process. Now, "Pacific War" has also followed this tradition again.

It's really interesting, isn't it? He found his first job as an actor, but entered a boot camp, where he trained before he was exposed to acting. If it weren't for being an actor, this is almost impossible in life.

Barracks No. 3 is very conspicuous. It is on the left side of the main road. The gray concrete brick wall is inconspicuous, but its superior size can easily distinguish it.

After Renly registered and reported at the door, he walked into Barracks No. 3 and was greeted not by his future colleagues and actors, but by... Countless clothes! A full twelve sets of gantry divide the spacious barracks into twelve aisles, and they are dazzlingly covered with clothing, not only soldiers' clothes, but also retro clothing from the 1940s, ranging from luxury to civilians. It's all there, and it looks like a warehouse sale.

There was a voice behind the gantry, and I walked along the aisle. After a turn, I suddenly became enlightened. There was a large open space in the center, where a dozen boxes of boots were neatly stacked, and the entire wall behind was covered with different ranks. The Marine Corps uniforms, the new uniforms with the fragrance of softener are placed together, which really has a lot of visual impact.

After one of the previous actors finished getting the costume, Renly stepped forward, "Renly Hall, playing Eugene Sledge."

The staff member in front of him checked the list and muttered, "Oh, K Company, 3rd Battalion, First Class." Turning around, he found a set of military uniforms skillfully and handed it over. Renly saw the other party. , immediately stretched out his hands and took off the entire military uniform, "Shoe size?"

"Seven and a half." But after the words were said, Renly changed it immediately, "Eight and a half." The other party's brows could not help frowning slightly, obviously dissatisfied that Renly didn't even remember his own shoe size.

In fact, seven and a half are UK sizing, while eight and a half are US sizing. Renly just had a conditioned reflex. However, aware of the other party's impatience, Renly didn't make any excuses - this is the barracks, obviously starting from the entrance, everything is carried out according to the rules and regulations of the army. Although this is a bit painful for ordinary people, for actors, it is the only way to enter the role.

The other party bent over and took a pair of boots and two pairs of socks, and put them on the military uniform, "After today's training, there are still people here from six to nine o'clock in the evening, and you will come over to pick up your other dramas. Serve. You have two more episodes before you enter the barracks."

"No problem." Renly's answer was not sloppy, and he turned around to leave. This small detail seemed to satisfy the other party. He said, "Friendly reminder, it's best to answer 'yes, sir' in the future."

"Yes, sir!" Lan Li said vigorously and forcefully, following the customs of the country, with a small smile on the corner of his mouth. "Your residence is barracks No. 8, go there and change your clothes." After speaking, he did not say any more. Ignoring Renly, then looked at the next person, "Name, role?"

Renly turned his head, only had time to exchange glances with the other party, and then quickly left Barracks No. 3. Although Renly doesn't know what's going to happen in the boot camp, he won't forget the brutal and brutal way of recruiting in the movie "Full Metal Jacket", and it's best to be prepared.

Entering Barracks No. 8, a small group of people gathered at the door to smoke, smoky, and then a few more people sat scattered on the empty wooden bed, focusing on their own business. Renly's arrival only drew a glance from everyone, and then everyone looked away.

Renly didn't say hello either, and went straight to the public bathroom on the right in the center, where he changed his full set of clothes - including panties and socks, and when he came out again, everyone looked over instantly. Because in the entire barracks, only two people changed their clothes, and the other seven or eight people were still wearing their original civilian clothes.

Seeing Renly's seriousness, he could clearly hear someone sneering in a low voice, and even a voice was not suppressed, and he said loudly, "I don't know where the country boy came from, what a stupid thing to say. Just do what the boss asks him to offer chrysanthemums/flowers for a while, and he will definitely untie the belt without saying a word..." Those vulgar words caused the others to laugh in unison.

Renly walked to an empty seat with a calm face, stuffed his backpack under the bed, ignoring their plans at all. He was not so kind to remind them that when the training really started, it was them who suffered, and it was enough for him to just stand by and see who was the fool.

"Renly! Renly!" Amidst the laughter, a voice called out excitedly. The one who entered the door was Rami Malek. He was twenty-eight years old this year, but his baby face looked bluer than blue. Li was still young, with a happy smile on his face, sprinting all the way, "You are here too! I was thinking just now, I can't find anyone I know anywhere, I feel a little scared! I knew you were sure I can choose, and, and... I chose too!"

Rami's cheerful words jumped out without interruption, as if he couldn't catch his breath, which made Renly laugh dumbly, and looked at the group of old fritters behind Rami who began to laugh at Rami again, Renly directly He stood up and dragged Rami towards the public bathroom, but the voice just now shouted loudly, "It's only daylight, so I can't help but go to base!" The joking voice caused others to shout Laugh out loud.

Richard-cawthorne was very satisfied with the effect of his jokes, but he didn't expect that Renly threw a sentence over without showing weakness, "If you are envious, Dad doesn't mind adding more. You're the one." This suddenly made a mouthful of old blood rush to his throat, but Renly didn't pause at all, and went straight into the public bathroom.

There was laughter from behind again, but Renly ignored it, "Rami, change into your military uniform quickly, training should start at any time."

Lamy had just arrived at the barracks, and was still a little unclear about the situation, but compared to Renly, he had been rolling around in Hollywood for many years, and he was naturally familiar with it. "Don't pay attention to that group of people..." He also wanted to comfort him. Renly, there are such old fritters in almost every production crew, especially in the TV circle. They take pleasure in bullying the rookie, and even squeeze the rookie's income. If the rookie resists, they have countless ways to hide the small details. , will not affect the normal work, but let the rookie have no words to say.

But Renly didn't care at all. He patted Rami on the shoulder and signaled, "Quick, change your clothes." After saying it, Renly realized that there was some ambiguity in the sentence, and was about to make a joke. I didn't care, I threw the cloth bag in my hand to the ground, and then started to change my clothes.

This made Renly laugh dumbly.

Lamy's movements were quick, and the two walked out of the public bathroom immediately, and a stern scolding sounded from the door, "You bastards, you are still farting here, you are in Waiting for someone to wash the chrysanthemum/flowers for you? Quick, get out!"

Looking at the sound, you can see a senior officer in a Marine Corps uniform. Due to the backlight, it is not clear whether it is a lieutenant or a captain.

The barracks that was still laughing just now suddenly became quiet, as if it froze in an instant, which made the officer very dissatisfied, and snorted coldly, "A bunch of trash. I'll give you ninety seconds to gather outside, and I didn't show up after the time limit. If so, run back and forth on the four-mile mountain road!" After speaking, he turned and left without waiting for an answer at all.
