"What gift are you going to give me?" Small crystal asked again
Zhang Chengyuan said, "I’ve given this matter to your sister Zhixiu. You’ll know it later."
"It’s not Ji Xiujie who helps you choose a gift again, is it?" Small crystal some unhappy way
"No, I chose it this time, but let her take care of it for me."
"That’s more like it." Small crystal was happy again.
Zhang Chengyuan said, "Brother Crystal asked you something. Do you have any goals when you become a singer?"
Small Crystal said, "Yes, I want to be a popular singer like my sister and a great actor like my brother."
Zhang Chengyuan laughed. "You are greedy, and you want to be a singer and an actor. Besides, don’t you still want to enter Seoul National University? Aren’t you afraid you can’t cope? "
Small crystal hesitated for a moment, saying, "Brother, I want to discuss something with you. I hope you won’t be angry with me after hearing this."
"Come on, I won’t be angry with you if you don’t want to do anything bad." Zhang Chengyuan smiled gently.
Little Crystal said, "I don’t want to enter Seoul National University."
"What? Didn’t you always regard it as a goal? " He didn’t really care if Xiao Crystal took the Seoul National University exam, but he was a little confused about why she suddenly changed her mind. She is not a person who gives up her goal at will.
Small Crystal said, "That was when I was a child, I was not sensible and casually talked about the reality. Now I have found that I am afraid that it is difficult to get into this university. Of course, if I can study with my heart in the future, it is still possible. But when I become an artist, I will definitely not have much time to study hard, and I will definitely pass the French exam in this university. Even though I am still a trainee, I still can guarantee that my grades are the first in my grade, not to mention after my debut!
Brother, do you think I am not worthy to be your sister? Before, you can easily get into the national university while reading the notice. "
Zhang Chengyuan said, "There are too many people who can’t get into the national university. Are they all gone?" Brother Crystal told you long ago that you don’t have to go to this university, such as Sungkyunkwan University, Central University, dongguk university, etc., but you don’t have a university like your sister, but your brother doesn’t have any special requirements for you and your sister. It is good for you to have goals and have a happy life. "
"really?" Small crystal was very happy. She was afraid that Zhang Chengyuan would blame her for not having ambition and giving up easily.
"Of course it’s true!" Zhang Chengyuan repeated with a smile.
Small crystal more happy way "elder brother, don’t worry, although it is likely that I won’t get into Seoul National University, but I will definitely be able to get into the university and it will definitely not be an ordinary university.
Zhang Chengyuan said, "It’s up to you, but don’t give up after you set a practical goal, okay?"
"I know that I will never give up this time. You will see, after three and a half years, I will definitely be a first-class school student and a small accomplished artist."
"I’ll wipe my eyes," Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile. In his opinion, it is naturally a good thing for Xiao Jing to have such ambitions, and he will try his best to support and help her.
Chapter six hundred and thirty-six Inception shooting
After breakfast, Zhang Chengyuan sent the Zheng sisters away and immediately rushed to the crew to continue filming. Three days later, he flew to Tokyo to meet the crew of Inception. It is estimated that it will take at least one or two months to return to South Korea.
Zhang Chengyuan arrived at noon on July 1st, and immediately met the director Christopher in a hotel. Nolan actor Leonardo? DiCaprio, Allen? Peggy and Tom? Hardy, marion? Cotillard, Ken Watanabe, Lucas? Haas and other cast members, um, and his Hollywood agent Jon? Brian will naturally follow Zhang Chengyuan before he is integrated into the cast, which is his duty.
Except for Nolan, the director, other cast members Zhang Chengyuan are almost the first time to meet him. Of course, this does not mean that he can’t recognize them. They didn’t say that before, agent Jon? Brian has done enough homework for him. Even if he doesn’t do his homework, Zhang Chengyuan can recognize one or two famous Leonardo who starred in Titanic, Blood Diamond, Walker and other blockbusters or classic movies. DiCaprio, he definitely knows him. Although he seems to have experienced many vicissitudes and gained a lot of weight, he is still quite handsome and charming.
Besides, marion? Cotillard, a famous actress who just won the Golden Globe Award and Oscar Award for la vie en rose last year, is also somewhat familiar with other actors. Forgive him for his blindness, but he really didn’t remember anything before preparing his homework.
But he will not despise them, because most of these people are not well-known in the ball, especially in the west, and he has many more than him.
Although he is famous in South Korea and even the whole of East Asia, he is not known by many people in Hollywood and the western world, and he is a little famous in the hearts of some people who like kung fu movies. However, he is naturally not arrogant and can’t grovel to others, whether at this time or at other times.
Fortunately, the strict hierarchy system in South Korea is not popular in the western world, and the crew members don’t think that Zhang Chengyuan doesn’t respect them enough. Instead, they think that he is neither humble nor admirable. Plus, he is very impressed by his strong figure, handsome face and fluent English, and they are all happy to talk to him.
In order to enable them to communicate better and shoot a good film, Zhang Chengyuan naturally did not hesitate to communicate more with them. He even used a little special means to make them get familiar with him quickly, so that they could cultivate some tacit understanding as soon as possible and reduce the obstacles in filming, and the effect was obviously good. By dinner that night, Zhang Chengyuan had become quite familiar with most actors, and occasionally played some hurtful jokes on each other.
After a night’s rest, Inception began filming the next day on the roof of a skyscraper in Tokyo and a helicopter parked on the roof. There are four actors in this play, Leonardo? DiCaprio, Zhang Chengyuan, Ken Watanabe and Lucas? Haas also hired several walk-on actors to play the bodyguards of Japanese tycoons played by Ken Watanabe in Japan.
Although the local government in Tokyo has very strict regulations on helicopter flying height and flight route before shooting, the crew made great efforts to apply for helicopter shooting, but it was quite smooth when shooting this scene. The four actors are all acting veterans Leonardo? DiCaprio writes freely, Ken Watanabe is sophisticated, domineering, Zhang Chengyuan is confident, and there is not a word in this scene. Haas will also behave very naturally, of course, this is also because the scene is not difficult
However, no matter whether the first scene of the opening ceremony was successfully completed, the director Nolan and the crew were greatly encouraged. Through this scene, Zhang Chengyuan made people realize his superb acting skills and won their respect. At present, his acting skills are not inferior to Leonardo’s? DiCaprio and others, and the performance style is also very in line with Hollywood movies
In addition, director Nolan’s directing style left a deep impression on Zhang Chengyuan. He usually told the actors his shooting intention instead of telling them what you should do and how to say, so he left a lot of freedom for the actors, which can be said to be like a duck to water for Zhang Chengyuan, an actor with superb acting skills and experience, and can also give full play to his own strength and greatest potential.
Soon after, Zhang Chengyuan also felt an interesting difference from Nolan’s other directors-Nolan didn’t allow the actors to understand the whole drama deeply, and most of the other actors had their own dramas, so that the actors could follow the corner cesium they played and figure out the film step by step like detectives.
……
After shooting in Japan for about ten days, the crew made a scene in Japan and then went to Britain to shoot some important scenes. Among them, there was a very complicated scene in a converted hangar in northern London-a weightless fight scene in the hotel corridor.
In order to shoot this imaginative fighting scene, the crew specially spent a huge sum of money to build a hotel corridor that can rotate 36 degrees, so that when the corridor rotates, the actors can fight on the left and right sides for a while and for a while like flying over the wall.
And this scene happens to be the main part of the assistant of the dreamer played by Zhang Chengyuan. Zhang Chengyuan gave full play to his superb skills, rehearsed for about an hour, and then got used to prancing and jumping in this environment. The stuntmen who had been trained for a long time performed a fierce, strange and wonderful animation in this rotating corridor, which made the director Nolan and others satisfied and greatly appreciated. It was deeply felt that Zhang Chengyuan had found the right actors to shoot this scene, saving a day or two of shooting time.
In addition, all the plays performed by Zhang Chengyuan since the filming began have also made him very satisfied, because he is the actor with the least number of ng times in the crew. And no matter when he can show 100% concentration and acting state, this is the most amazing and admirable. Of course, if Korean actors see this situation, they will not be surprised because they have long been used to Zhang Chengyuan’s filming situation.
After filming the scenes in Britain, the crew moved to Paris, France, and Tangier, Morocco to continue filming. Since there were not many scenes in these two places, he asked the director to put his scenes together as much as possible and started filming first. After finishing these scenes, he asked for leave twice to return to China, and then took some scenes of iris and got along with some sisters.
Of course, these two scenes are not long enough to add up to more than half a month, but in the past half a month or so, he has filmed five or six scenes. Although he is not very tired, he has exhausted his actors and crew. If the actors’ scenes are not adjusted and staggered, and Zhang Chengyuan has supported a group of film and television drama crews to add directors to the "iris" crew, there are just two people who can rest alternately, fearing that the whole crew will fall apart early.
Everyone has some complaints about him, but Zhang Chengyuan’s position now is that it is certainly difficult for several people to dare to talk about him in secret, but Zhang Chengyuan is too lazy to pay attention to it because of guilt and let Lin Zhixiu allocate some funds and manpower to improve the diet, accommodation, transportation, medical care and other aspects of the crew.
However, the cast of Inception didn’t care much about his leaving halfway. Anyway, it almost didn’t affect the normal shooting of the cast. After this period, everyone’s affection for Zhang Chengyuan increased dramatically. Several major actors have regarded him as a good friend and didn’t complain about the convenience that director Nolan gave Zhang Chengyuan.
After returning to China twice, when Zhang Chengyuan returned to Inception, it was almost mid-September and the shooting location was transferred to Los Angeles. Here, Zhang Chengyuan played a lot of plays, so he didn’t want to leave again. He worked conscientiously until early November, when his play department filmed, and he officially left the crew. In this issue, iris has been shown on kbs TV, and he was also "sorry" to be absent-in fact, he was quite pleased because he saved some time to talk about the media and his breath.
After he left, the crew of Inception moved to a mountain near Banff National Park in Calgary, Canada for the last location shooting. Because Zhang Chengyuan didn’t have a scene here, he didn’t go with him. Maybe he didn’t need to go back to the crew until the director felt it necessary to let him come back and make some more scenes or the film began to be announced.
This filming cost Zhang Chengyuan more than three months, which also seriously affected the filming process of iris. In addition, Zhang Chengyuan put in a lot of money to calm the mood of the members of iris, but he didn’t get nothing without saying that he got the great director Christopher. Nolan appreciates that he may be able to reunite or be recommended to other directors and producers in the future; I don’t want to say how much this film will increase his popularity and popularity after it is shown in the future. DiCaprio, marion? Cotillard, Allen? Peggy and Tom? Hardy and many other actors have expanded their friendship and made him glad you came among Hollywood actors.
It can be said that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and he does not feel the loss or regret.
