Raising Dragons in Hollywood

Chapter 20: Bread Friends League

Views:

To be honest, even though I have made a bunch of friends since I was a child, Sammy is still not a lovable existence.

He only makes friends with a sincere heart, and he is usually very clumsy when dealing with people and things.

He doesn't speak pretty words very well, he always acts in a strict manner, he never promises things that can't be fulfilled easily, and his mind is full of fairy tales of warriors slaying dragons.

So, when the crew came up with the 'flatten that bun' rebellion

Sammy wasn't surprised at all, instead he felt a sense of relief that 'this is also a kind of alternative unity'.

Of course, there are also people who hold grievances for him.

The most responsible sister Corinna in the crew is very disgusted by the so-called resistance alliance.

She was the one who knew best how much work Sammy put into the crew.

Therefore, every time he saw the group of people speak ill of Sammy in private, the righteous eldest sister would be very angry: "These unscrupulous guys only know how to make trouble all day long, and God will punish them sooner or later. Don't be angry, Sammy, these ignorant people don't deserve your kindness to them at all."

"It's not a good thing to give people buns for breakfast," Sammy said without getting the point.

His attitude was indifferent: "As long as they don't delay work, they can do whatever they say. In fact, I think it's so energetic to fight against me like this! It's much stronger than the lifeless appearance before."

Sister Corinna is so angry and funny, why is she so good-natured

She couldn't help walking over, reached out and rubbed the half-faded pink hair of the little director, and showed a relieved smile: "Okay, you can think about it yourself."

Director Jones has been drinking less alcohol these days, and naturally has more time to sober.

Especially after knowing the various measures and efforts that Sammy has made for this crew, his emotions are very complicated. For a while, he feels that 'youth is tossing and messing around in vain all day long'; Everyone dares to fight, why did I give up so quickly, what if I succeeded'

Based on this kind of thinking, it may also be a little shame for the decadent practice of self-defeating before.

Without anyone noticing, Director Jones quietly helped Sammy manage several notoriously thorny employees.

So, over time...

Under Sammy's subtle influence, a crew that was about to be cut off actually flourished.

After all, the members of the crew can't be so 'rebellious' all the time.

They are not really bad people in nature, but they have been idle for too long and are not suitable for the rapid development of the situation. In addition, Sammy is a newcomer who cannot convince the public, so they demanded a lot, and they gave an overreaction for a while.

But when the overheated brain gradually cools down...

They also noticed that the new director did have real material, not random orders or random orders. Moreover, considering that unless you have a better job and leave immediately, you still have to continue to work in the crew.

At this point, these people finally gradually restrained their unnecessary thoughts and became more focused.

When those prejudices are discarded, the hostility between people will gradually disappear, and even, due to previous misunderstandings, everyone will become a little better at speaking.

However, Sammy, who is always immersed in his own world, has always been slow to respond to this,

But he soon felt the changes directly.

On that day, according to the shooting plan, everyone prepared to shoot a turning point.

In this scene, the protagonist Aaron encounters a ghost.

And the ghost actor is not someone else, but the actor who originally played the 'Villa Ghost'.

After all, it was because the crew had to change the character settings before, which led to the actor's dissatisfaction and strike.

Therefore, out of the psychology of making up, after discussing with the screenwriter, Sammy arranged a new role for the actor, a seemingly crazy, but actually very humorous Mr. Ghost.

In this scene, Aaron gradually discovers that something is wrong with the country house.

As a protagonist with a dual setting of bravery and death, it is natural for him to explore and find out the secrets of the villa.

Mr. Ghost was the first unscientific creature he encountered directly.

If it is a horror TV series, in this scene, it should be the ghost that scared the protagonist to the point where he was utterly distraught.

But as a family-friendly TV series, it is naturally impossible to act like this.

So, poor Mr. Ghost was bullied.

When Jack saw the ghost, instead of screaming, he shouted and took out his mobile phone.

Then, when the ghost was stunned, he hurriedly opened the Latin version of the e-book "Bible" on his mobile phone and pressed the automatic recitation function.

With the development of technology, exorcism equipment must also keep pace with the times.

With the automatic recitation function, you will no longer have to worry about not knowing Latin.

Moreover, people can also freely choose the voice they like to hear, what holy priest, sexy pope, majestic archbishop, gentle nun...

As long as you can think of it, there are everything in the e-book system.

Under such an attack...

Mr. Ghost screamed in pain and fell to the ground slowly and exaggeratedly.

However, such a brief episode was filmed four or five times.

The brain circuit of the actor playing the ghost is amazing.

He always tried to do some small things, and when others didn't notice, he secretly pulled away the dark robe that symbolized ghosts and covered his face, revealing his not-so-good-looking face in front of the camera.

Time and time again, I can't get the shot I want.

Sammy's patience gradually ran out, but he thought that sometimes the actor might not really understand the director's meaning, so he decided to have a good talk with this person first.

"Wolf, come over here, please."

He shouted the actor's name while organizing the language in his mind. In order not to attack the actor, he first praised "You did a good job in this scene", and then he made a good suggestion: "But there is a Small problem, in this scene, the ghost doesn't have to show his face."

However, the actor named Wolf was very disapproving: "It's okay to show a little bit."

- No, the ghost is pretending to be mysterious, and it is not allowed to show his face here.

- If you don't show your face, how does the audience know that I'm playing the ghost? A little bit can be mysterious.

—… Don’t show your face.

-All right.

After the above dialogue, Sammy thinks the matter is resolved and can continue filming.

But what I didn't expect was...

When Jack, who played Aaron, followed the script again, after encountering the ghost, he calmly took out his mobile phone, clicked on the automatic reading in the "Bible", and waited for Mr. Ghost to scream and fall to the ground...

Wolf, who played Mr. Ghost, jumped up suddenly, his whole body trembling like he was going crazy.

After trembling for about a minute, he let out a scream that was comparable to a wolf howl, and he really fell to the ground slowly (twisting his body), and then started a very expressive and exaggerated rolling. The black robe that symbolized the mystery was quickly thrown aside.

At this moment, let alone showing his face, even the white suit he was wearing was all exposed to the camera.

Everyone stared at this scene in amazement.

The actor who played the main character Aaron was probably stunned.

He stood there pitifully and helplessly, staring blankly at the actor's 'sick' performance.

About 10,000 crows flew past in front of me, wailing.

Sammy was so angry that he didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, and decided to make a substitution.

But the actor jumped up from the ground and said plausibly, "It's not fair! I've already acted according to the script, and you're not eligible to fire me."

But Sammy didn't want to talk at all.

He waved his hand and motioned to the crew to pull the man away.

But the actor named Wolfe was not reconciled to such an exit.

His face was ashen, and he glared at Sammy and cursed: "Why do you do this? Who do you think you are? An assistant director who doesn't know how to go? A newcomer who doesn't know which sewers to get out of? Fuck you. Come on! A rubbish who doesn't know anything dares to command me. Look around you, and ask the people in your crew, how many people are convinced of you? You are like a pervert all day long, they hate you It's so annoying that they've formed a rebel alliance, you know?"

Sammy pursed her lips, displeased.

He doesn't care about the hostility of the crew members, and he knows that sometimes he is really inhumane at work, but it's still a little humiliating to be called 'unpopular' so directly.

The intricate relationship between human beings has never been understood, and Mickey Dragon, who has been sitting next to the set eating bread and watching the fun, is angry.

'What's wrong with my human being? Let you talk nonsense like that. ' He didn't even think about it, three steps and two steps were a punch.

Although this juvenile fire dragon takes care of fragile humans, it really doesn't use much force...

But the actor named Wolf, who was almost 1.8 meters tall, was actually knocked out like this. His feet were obviously a few centimeters off the ground, and his body was suspended for a moment, and then he fell heavily and rolled backwards. Three laps.

For a time, the entire shooting scene seemed to have been pressed the pause button.

Silent.

Never thought that Mickey would do this, and Sammy's face couldn't help but bring a look of astonishment.

But he quickly reacted, jumped from the director's chair in a hurry, trotted all the way, and stretched his arms, trying to hug Mickey by the waist to prevent him from continuing to rush over and beat people.

But because of the huge difference in body size between the two, he was so embarrassed that he jumped over and hugged people like a child jumping on their parents' backs and asking for someone to carry them.

However, his actions still managed to remind everyone on the crew.

But surprisingly...

Even if everyone regained their senses, no one cared about Mr. Wolf, who was knocked to the ground.

Sister Corinna spoke first: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

She directly akimbo scolded: "It's none of your business if we're not convinced, the director, you idiot."

Actor Jack who played Aaron also frowned and said: "I don't think there is anything wrong with Director Sammy, he is a good director."

The photographer also spoke next to him: "Get up, Mickey hit you lightly, what are you pretending to be dead? Don't try to make up rumors for our crew, I warn you, I can clearly capture everything you said and did just now. Clearly."

"When did we hate directors, don't you understand?"

"Director Sammy has a good temper, so that a mad dog like you has the opportunity to bite people."

"What resistance alliance? Stop talking nonsense, it's obviously an alliance of buns."

"Who are you, don't act like someone from our crew, you're crazy."

Everyone made fun of Wolff, and no one agreed with what he just said.

Wolf was lying on the ground dizzy, and he didn't have the energy to reply. He wasn't pretending to be dead at all, but his whole body hurt as if he had been trampled by a group of bison, but he was only punched.

"Am I so weak? If I get punched, I'm going to die?" He could not help but doubt himself.

Sammy was lying on Mickey's back, and his round eyes looked stupidly at the people who were speaking for him.

He looked confused: [Wolf is right, don't you just hate me? Now... what's going on here? ]

Director Jones came over from behind, patted his head with a smile, and said enigmatically, "You know what? Anyone who has not eaten bread with tears is someone who doesn't understand the taste of life."
