Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

  Chapter 77 "Abandoning the Friends of the Jewish Gang"

"You finally came."

When Roland hurriedly stepped on the spot and arrived at Sony's studio before 2:30, and sneaked into the crew with a guilty face, the first thing he saw was Erlang leaning on the director's chair with his legs crossed, full of sleepiness. Cameron yawns.

Just when Roland thought that in the next second, the other party would tear off his shirt and turn into a tyrant, breaking his neck with a slap like he did to Leon, Cameron, who turned the brim of his hat upside down, waved his hand and spoke with a tired expression. The tone said: "Go to make up, the next three hours are all your shooting time."

uh-huh?

  The sudden words made Roland, who was ready to die, stunned on the spot.

   You know, on the way here, Roland had even imagined a thousand ways to die for himself.

   Asking for time off from Cameron's crew and not getting it out on time?

  If Cameron, who was already unhappy, didn't catch him to death, he would be worthy of the nickname of tyrant!

  However, just as Roland chose his final resting place and prayed that the other party would leave him a whole body—

   What he is facing is not a volcanic eruption, but a peaceful tone? Calm down?

   Such an appearance directly gave him an illusion.

   Could it be... the truck driver took the wrong medicine again?

   Wrong —

  Even if he took the wrong medicine, he wouldn't be as outrageous as he is now!

   The guy in front of me is probably not a Skrull in disguise, right?

  A real truck driver, I’m afraid he has gone to heaven?

   Just when Roland expressed doubts about the behavior of the truck driver and fell into a brain hole.

Cameron, who was watching him quietly, gradually showed an impatient look on his face. After waiting for a while, seeing the kid in front of him still analyzing himself with obscure eyes, the familiar anxious words came from his In the mouth, sprayed out.

   "Hei, Hei, Hei!"

   "I asked you to put on makeup, why are you staring at me?"

   "I haven't seen you for two days, are you scolded again?"

   "If you feel uncomfortable, let's sit down and have a chat after the filming is over!"

   "Now, don't waste my time!"

   That's right...

  Although the words that came suddenly were like thunder on the ground, Roland, who was thinking blankly, was 'scared'.

  But Roland was not only not angry, but also relaxed a lot.

   As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change.

  If a person's temper suddenly changes dramatically, it is either stimulated by external events, or he is thinking about how to deal with you—no matter what the situation is, Roland doesn't want to face it.

  However, when he faced Cameron's scolding, he got into the dressing room.

  The huge shadow oncoming hit him directly.

  After he looked up, Schwarzenegger, who had already removed his make-up and put on his normal clothes, was the first to laugh and said:

   "Yo, isn't this Roland?"

   "You danced well last night."

   "Looking at you like this, you should be overexcited and couldn't get up this morning?"

   "But it doesn't matter, the time is just right."

   "The shooting schedule in the afternoon is all yours alone."

The slightly joking words made Roland raise his eyebrows. Looking at the unscrupulous future governor, Roland hit his old waist with his shoulder angrily, and took the opportunity to ask: "Okay, Arnold, don't take it here. I was kidding."

   "Tell me, what is going on?"

   "I'm late today, James not only didn't scold me, but also calmly asked me to come over for makeup and filming?"

   "This...isn't this a bit too strange?"

  When doubts and inquiries appeared together with the sneaky look back, Schwarzenegger, who heard the words, burst out laughing.

He raised his hand and patted Roland's shoulders a few times, and moved his legs away, like the king of Qin circumambulating a column, dodging Roland's 'kidney shot'. Not only that, but he also took the initiative to pull on the door.

  However, although he dealt with Roland's attack mischievously, he still helped Roland clear his mind before leaving.

   "James has a bad temper, but he is still a nice person."

   "After Robert (T-1000) and I came over in the morning, he told us not to wait for you, just shoot."

  "We have all participated in various awards ceremonies, and we know what we will be like the day after the end, so even if you got up this morning, it is for you to rest..."

   "See that recliner? You've seen us use something like this before?"

  Yes, although Cameron often sprayed people in the crew, it was also because of a shooting accident and emotional agitation.

   During the rest of the filming time, he is quite reasonable.

Unlike Spielberg, who is a director when he picks up the guide tube, and a businessman when he puts down the guide tube, the truck driver in and out of the scene has a personality gap, but it is quite obvious. He can spray you with dog blood just a second ago Head, he can chat with you about other things in the next second, and in this case, how many women can get along with him in harmony?

   Speaking of fine points, that is flattering him, and his strong desire to control is the best evaluation in line with him personally.

   But even for a guy like that, he knows how to care about people.

  Looking in the direction of Schwarzenegger's finger, the reclining chair folded and leaning aside is the best proof.

  You can say that this is the same smell, or it can be said that it is the care of the elders, and it can be more utilitarian. It means that Cameron is responsible for his own movie, and he does not want to see Roland in a very bad state appearing in front of the camera.

but-

   It's more that he knows that no one likes to go to this kind of boring award show.

   And understand that after experiencing the boring sleepiness, Roland needs such a thing.

   Oh, don't refute this by saying that the Ballon d'Or is not rich enough.

  Because even Oscar, few people are really willing to go.

   Big devil Cate - Blanchett and big mouth Julia - Roberts once went out to drink between the Oscars.

  As actresses and nominees for Best Supporting Actress, they are all so calm.

  You can see how helpless this kind of activity is for practitioners.

   After seeing the deck chair, Roland, who thought he had missed something, suddenly laughed.

   Ignoring Schwarzenegger who had already left, with his hands in his pockets, the corners of his mouth naturally curled up.

   This is really a guy who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside!

  Although Cameron in the previous life has divorced many times, this does not prove that he is very difficult to get along with.

   On the contrary, it can prove that he has a strong personal charm.

  Not to mention anything else, Roland felt a little surprised by this small action in front of him.

Although he understands that the composition of this reclining chair is actually very complicated. If it were replaced by another young actor, Cameron might have shaved off a layer of scalp, but—aside from the process and look at the result, the beneficiary is not him. ?

  Since this is the case, why should he consider any differential treatment and mental journey?

  He just needs to know that the previous scolding was just the other party's personal habit, and now Cameron has already regarded himself as a friend.

   That's enough.

   And friends...

  Filming with such a relaxed mind, the effect is much better than before.

Roland is not the kind of actor who is resistant to stress. He can indeed perform normally in a violent environment, but if he wants to blend in freely, he has to be kind and make money. And now Cameron is only filmed by Roland alone. When most of the crew members had already left the scene, the communication between the two became even more harmonious.

   Cameron cursed, and Roland immediately responded back.

  When various ideas from different souls are intertwined, things like filming become very simple.

What is it like: "Roland, you just take the money from the family, go out to play games, and then get discovered by your parents, desperately want to escape, when you turn your head to look around, the tension on your face will suddenly explode, and don't talk to Like a fool, half-spirited."

Regarding Cameron's arrangement, Roland directly retorted: "Hei, James, first of all, T-1000 is not John's parent, and secondly, John in the script ran away because he was worried about stealing money and being caught. , shouldn't he leave the scene calmly first, and run desperately after escaping from the other party's sight? If he caused a commotion from the very beginning, he would be discovered 100%. boring..."

   "Oh, my childhood was boring? Isn't your words implying to me that you stole things?"

   "You just stole something, I just want to tell you that your thinking is not in line with common sense."

   "But I'm the director..."

   "Come on, there are only a few of us at the scene, even if you change it, you won't lose face, let's discuss it seriously."

  In the past, Roland would not have communicated with the truck driver in such a tone.

   But now—

  Your old man has prepared a recliner for me to sleep on, so don’t put on a straight face and pretend to be a villain, okay?

  Smile, just smile, go out happily, film happily, isn’t it a good day like this?

  Although Roland spoke a lot more than usual, the filming progress of the crew not only did not slow down, but accelerated a lot.

   After all, Roland is standing on the shoulders of his predecessors (Cameron's shoulders) to give pertinent advice!

   Is it cool for a traverser to pretend to beep and slap your face?

   Things that don’t exist are fine!

  For Roland, there is nothing better than teaching Cameron to shoot "Terminator".

   Aren’t you Cameron a filmmaker? What a Terminator! (funny

  In the state of friends (phases) good (mutual) communication (swearing) communication (street), the entire crew was directly filmed until after nine o'clock in the evening.

  Roland not only finished his work today, but also killed more than half of the follow-up shots in the studio.

   To put it bluntly, at most one more day, all his roles in the crew of "Terminator 2" can be wrapped up.

Next, whether he continues to shoot with Cameron or turns to Spielberg's crew, it all depends on his own preferences—anyway, he is a crab now, and no one in the entire Sony studio can stop him.

Maybe it's because the end is coming, or maybe it's because Cameron is out of the untouchable range, so Roland, who had been arguing with each other all afternoon, invited him to have dinner when the crew went back to their homes to find their mothers .

   Cameron, who didn't want to go home, glared at this guy first, and then readily agreed to his proposal.

  The two of them didn't even think about running elsewhere, they found a restaurant near the studio.

Of course, Roland is not the kind of little girl in love, and it is impossible to chat with the other party—"I always thought you scolded me because I was annoying, but I didn't expect that you actually cared about me", "I found you My little secret, your heart is so soft', 'Oh, James, you feel so hot on the outside, you are really manly' and a series of content that tends to develop towards Mary Sue—although now he really feels that Carme Ron's brain is pretty interesting, but—

   The work of peeking into the heart is better left to Cameron's woman.

  Compared with people, in order to prove that he is still straight, Roland can only choose everything about movies in the other party's mind.

   As soon as we talk about movies, there are many topics for both parties to talk about.

Cameron first asked about what happened to Roland last night. After learning that he had teased all the big names at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, this guy who had never been nominated for a Golden Globe Award immediately took a picture of him. table.

   "Oh, Roland, you are really luckier than me."

   "When I entered the industry, it was really troublesome."

   "No one takes me seriously. They don't allow me to participate in post-production. If I hadn't pried open the door of the studio, then my first film would definitely not belong to me..."

   Roland knew what Cameron was talking about. Didn’t the matter of prying open the door of the studio to edit the movie happen when Cameron just entered the post-production of "Piranha 2"?

  But Roland felt that the producer at that time did the right thing!

  Your old man has let the piranhas put on wings and turn them into flying fighter jets. They want to fly to the sky and stand side by side with the sun. In this case, the producer is very kind if they didn’t kill you.

   "However, the attitude of those people also inspired my determination to be a director who controls the overall situation."

   "It is because of their obstruction that there will be the later "Terminator" and the current sequel."

   "Compared with your experience, I feel that I am really unlucky."

Hearing Cameron narrate the events of the year in a nostalgic tone, Roland, who was sitting across from him and was in charge of listening, sighed softly in his heart: "The Terminator" series is really the success of Cameron, and the failure is also Kamelon. Mellon!

  T-1000, a liquid metal robot, is really a product of inspiration.

And after that, it doesn't matter if it's the three sequels that are similar to Fanwai, or the orthodox sequel "Dark Fate" that takes over the second part, it doesn't matter if it's the Skynet that has been smashed, or the new universe. The legion in the film, this one sequel after another, is constantly proving the greatness of "Terminator 2", because—

The governor is still the governor, and no matter how the villain changes, even if he has a clone and has emotions, he cannot escape the liquid metal scene. Before Cameron himself imagines a new villain, if this IP is still filmed, it will be released in the future. Crash John Connor, in the case of the governor's retirement, maybe it will only continue to fall into mediocrity...

  Of course, the two of them came out to eat and chat, not to reminisce about the past and remember the past.

  Although Roland did not express his gratitude to Cameron for his care over the past six months, nor did Cameron take the initiative to mention his tolerance today, but during the communication, both parties have already got the other's thoughts.

Not only that, perhaps because he didn't want to make the atmosphere extremely awkward, after learning that Roland was going to jump to change teams, Cameron, who was holding a glass of wine, suddenly laughed and said: "Oh, you can finally go, I finally don't have to." I will listen to your thoughts every day."

   "I will inform them when I get back later, and tomorrow I will shoot a scene with you alone."

   "The sooner I let you finish the filming, the sooner my ears will calm down."

   "Oh, James, do you want to do this?" Hearing what Cameron said, Roland laughed helplessly, and he asked a little subconsciously: "In your eyes, am I really that noisy?"

"Of course, you are the most annoying little boy I have ever seen!" Cameron nodded bluntly, but before he finished speaking, he added, "Because so far, the only little boy I have worked with is You alone."

All right…

  When Roland saw Cameron's twitching eyes, a satisfied smile also clung to his face.

   Cameron who can joke with himself?

  This is the first time he saw him.

  Although the filming of "Terminator 2" is coming to an end, isn't the relationship between the two parties a new beginning?

  ...

  In order to quickly send away Roland's "100,000 whys", and of course, to allow Roland to get into the crew of "Captain Hook" earlier, the filming of the next two days really revolved around Roland.

As a result, Roland, who wanted to wait until the filming of "Captain Hook" officially started, encountered a very embarrassing situation. The filming of "Terminator 2" was over, and "Captain Hook" still had more to do. It took more than a month to start the machine again. At this time, even if he pestered Cameron, he would not learn much, because the studio interior scene was originally an unsatisfactory shot before reshoots, and if he left, he had no other arrangements except to stay. There seems to be nowhere else to go outside of home.

  So, when he was idle and bored, he stared at his new friend Cameron's dark "Spider-Man" script. He wanted to see how amazing this script that he had never had in his previous life was.

However, as soon as Roland opened his mouth, Cameron rolled his eyes and said in an almost helpless tone: "I'm shooting "Terminator 2" almost every day, how can I have time to write the book of "Spider-Man"? A storyboard for Spider-Man?"

   "You have this spare time to ask me for something, why not draw one yourself at home."

   "Don't worry, if you make it up well, I will definitely accept it."

   "When the time comes to appoint you as the first screenwriter, isn't it equivalent to blooming more?"

have to…

   What Roland wants to see is the dark brain hole of "Spider-Man"!

  You ask him to copy a trilogy of the previous version...

  Copying a Hero Returns, a Hero Expedition, or a Hero Homeless, that’s not interesting!

  The same movies are made to be famous, to make money, and to protect one's self-worth.

  It's more fun to get in touch with those brain holes that have never appeared in the previous life!

  However, since James has said so, Roland also knows that this guy has been drained by himself.

  Since there was no spark of inspiration in a short period of time, completing the original goal became Roland's last choice.

  Through Cameron's introduction, Roland finally met Stan Winston, who was in charge of the post-production of "Terminator 2".

   And in the other party's studio, he finally saw the Triceratops that Spielberg was talking about.

  When the limp behemoth appeared in front of him, he rummaged through the already blurred memory.

  ‘This dragon! It is indeed possible! '

   Roland, who found the dusty memory, expressed his emotion, but after the emotion, it disappeared.

  Intervening in the project of "Jurassic Park" is something he never thought of.

   You know, even James Cameron can't take a second job in Spielberg's project. How could he, Roland, affect this project?

  Being able to catch up with the vast majority of people and see the genius ideas of these great directors is already very good.

   As for others?

   Roland felt that there was Cameron's promise.

  The chance of me influencing "Spider-Man" is much greater than that of "Jurassic Park".

  Of course, if Cameron is really the same as in his previous life, and still can’t make a dark "Spider-Man", then—

  Roland is not going to leave this IP to Sony.

because-

   Roland has long discovered that the "Spider-Man" series may be the best movie that perfectly fits his growth.

Note: ① At the eighty-sixth Oscar, the actress Cate Blanchett ("Blue Jasmine") and the best supporting actress nominee Julia Roberts ("August: Oser") Zhijun") After the award ceremony was held for a while, they left the venue to drink together, and did not come back until after the award ceremony. Those who care really care, and those who don't care think this kind of thing is really boring.
