2312 Mentality rut

Tony couldn't determine what kind of emotion he was feeling. It was hard to distinguish and describe. He just had a... irritability, an irritability that was ready to break out. He was not sure whether this emotion was directed at Renly, the crew or the crew. For himself, or for other things, he did not stay there for too long, just turned around and left, silently standing in the grass in the corner next to him, hiding his figure.

It seems that he is isolated from the happy atmosphere of the crew.

This is very, very unsuitable for Tony - isn't it true that only artistic young people can be self-pitying? Shouldn't Tony raise his fists and fight for his attention??

But the reality is different. Sometimes and on certain occasions, the problem cannot be solved by standing up alone. Tony knows that this is the case now, so instead of waiting for himself to explode, it is better to go aside and calm down. He does not want to be like the Hulk. Hulk usually destroys them all.

The crew was still laughing, but only one person noticed Tony's abnormality: Wen Jiang.

Although Wen Jiang also wanted to ignore it, he didn't want to ask at all, but there were only two Chinese faces in the entire crew. If they didn't take care of each other, the filming work would only be more difficult; so he vomited a long sentence With a tone of voice, he walked helplessly towards Tony with swaying steps..

Tony noticed Wen Jiang, glanced up, and let out a disdainful "hum". He thought the other person was coming to laugh at him, but it wasn't the case..

“Do you know why Ziyi didn't continue her career in Hollywood? "Wen Jiang's words made Tony pause, and then he understood..

Everyone aspires to develop in Hollywood, which is the film center of the world; but the reality is that not everyone can gain a foothold. The reasons are undoubtedly complex, but one of them is mentality..

Ziyi Zhang became famous all over the world with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which won her a place in Hollywood. Although she cannot be regarded as a superstar in one fell swoop, her work resources also require countless Asian actors to star in many, many roles. After working on many international collaborations, she encountered "Memoirs of a Geisha". With this work, she continuously won Best Actress nominations at the Golden Globe Awards, British Academy Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards and other important places, and her overall reputation was far-reaching. surpassing Gong/Li in the same drama, and almost will be nominated for an Oscar——

But just like Jennifer Aniston this year, she suffered a tragic reversal at the last moment and sadly missed history..

After that, she gradually left Hollywood and settled down to develop in China..

reason?

It's not because of a lack of resources. Although "Memoirs of a Geisha" failed to win an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, her resources are actually getting more and better; it's because of her mentality.——

In Hollywood, she was a newcomer on the rise. She had to constantly look at other people's faces. Just like a newcomer starting from the bottom, everything she had experienced in China had to be repeated; more importantly, at that time, through "Ten Faces", "Ambush", "2046" and other works. She worked with top production teams in China and was treated like a top star. After going to Hollywood, she had to lose all her halo. No one cared about who she was. This psychological gap was undoubtedly It's a severe test.

So, did you work hard in Hollywood, only to lose the Oscar nomination you were destined to win despite being sure of victory; or did you return to China and continue to be your own top star, enjoying the embrace and surround of countless halo applause? This doesn't seem like a hard choice.

Not to mention the differences in language, culture, food, living environment, etc..

This state lasted for nearly eight years, and she had almost no masterpieces to speak of. Until the rise of "The Grandmaster" again, she then won a second chance to enter Hollywood. However, by this time she was married and had children, and her mentality was stable. More often than not, he participates in Hollywood popcorn commercial top performances in a dispensable way, such as "Cloverfield Paradox", "Godzilla 2", etc..

Now, Tony and Wen-Jiang are actually facing a similar situation.

Wen Jiang just clicked on the last sentence, and then he saw Tony's sharp and fierce eyes, as if the wound deep in his heart had been poked..

Wen Jiang quickly took two steps back and raised his hands to show his innocence, "If you want to spread the flames, go towards the target; don't involve me, an innocent citizen." That glib tone not only failed to calm Tony down, but also It became even more heated, which made Wen Jiang slap the corner of his mouth..

“I have told you before that here, we are two insignificant characters. The boss arranged functional roles for the Chinese market. The script can give us room to play, which is already an extra surprise; and that person He is the real boss, and our mentality needs... Hey, hey... Can't I stop saying it? I'll leave now, and you'll continue to meditate here, just like that other thinker..”

Before he finished speaking, Wen Jiang noticed the fire in Tony's eyes. He shut his mouth tactfully and turned around and left without hesitation..

Tony stood there alone. After thinking about it, he still couldn't express his emotions. He raised his hand and punched the trunk of the coconut tree next to him. The solid and heavy force made the coconut tree tremble slightly. , made a faint sound, and the powerful impact could be felt with the naked eye, truly conveying Tony's inner annoyance and confusion..

What about Renly??

“......?”Renly hugged Tom and expressed his gratitude, then looked around, but did not see Tony's figure. He vaguely noticed something unusual. Although his head was full of question marks, he did not express it-if the other party was Are you hiding on purpose and not wanting to be found??

To be precise, Renly cannot feel or understand Tony's mood.:

On the one hand, he has never experienced such a situation, and he is not sure how it feels. On the other hand, he doesn't care, whether he was filming "The Lobster" in Ireland before or now in the Maldives for "Rogue One". There is always a corner of the world that doesn’t know who he is and doesn’t care who he is, but his identity as an actor will not change. This is the most important thing..

Different mentality, different positions and different purposes often lead to completely different reactions on the same thing, just like Renly and Tony are doing now.

Therefore, Renly's radar judgment rarely went awry, "Is it because I'm gesticulating too much? Sure enough, the extras shouldn't steal the show..”

Renly temporarily withdrew his attention. Later, he made a special trip to find Tony and thanked Tony for his cooperation and understanding, "which fulfilled my dream of playing a stormtrooper." Instead of an apology, but a thank you, Renly responded in a slightly different way. conveyed his sincerity to Tony and thanked him for his cooperation..

Tony obviously didn't expect such a situation, and he didn't know how to respond. He just exchanged a few words with Renly politely..

Then... there is no more, and this is the end of the matter.

“The filming of "Rogue One" is still going on smoothly. Renly's temporary guest appearance as a stormtrooper is just a scene in the crew's happy daily life..

Renly failed to notice the abnormality, while Tony buried his thoughts deeply and did not show them, and Wen-Jiang was still a heartless bystander..

The side also once again confirmed a truth. Different mentality in different positions. No one can ever predict how ideas will develop..

The daily filming in the Maldives was still subject to some disruptions - not from the staff, but from nature. Sudden heavy rains always left the crew helpless. Sometimes everyone might be ready and ready to start shooting, but the downpour comes without warning. Heavy rain completely ruined a whole day's shooting plan.

That’s the problem. The crew doesn’t have enough time to wait and waste it here. Not to mention that every day of live-action shooting consumes a huge amount of money. This is true for everything from venues to personnel to equipment. Just talk about the entire movie. The filming schedule, because there is still huge special effects work to be completed in the later stage, if Garris wants to complete the filming according to Kathleen Kennedy's plan, then they must speed up.

To make matters worse, Renly and Felicity must rush to Los Angeles to attend the Oscars. Their schedules have been arranged long before joining the crew, and they must not be interrupted - otherwise Lucasfilm will The industry will have to pay Renly a huge amount of compensation..

Although Jason McGatlin also knew that the weather was not something Garris could control, he still had to keep putting pressure on Garris, hoping that the crew could keep up with the filming schedule. He didn't want to face Catherine- Kennedy's rage was like Gandalf facing a troll.

After deliberation and discussion, Garris finally made adjustments on the spot, taking the lead in filming the scenes between Renly and Felicity, so that the two actors could go to Los Angeles, and then the other actors and crew stayed in the Maldives to continue filming; but if If the weather still doesn't improve, they will leave the Maldives and return to the pine forest to shoot**, set up the location there, and complete all the filming - they can always come up with a solution.

But even so, the crew can only wait for God's face and silently hope that the weather will improve..

It is also a challenge for the actors. They need to stay in shape at all times. When the weather gets better, they will appear on stage immediately. When the weather is bad, they cannot leave and are on standby at any time. The result is that the entire cast of the show gathers together to play. Poker, even Renly is no exception——

The script had been roughed up over and over again, but the weather was bad and the filming couldn't go ahead, so Renly just took a newspaper and played crossword puzzles, while other actors played poker next to him..

After waiting and waiting, the sky finally cleared up. The entire crew did not even have time to cheer, they were already out in force, preparing like a battlefield, completing the layout as quickly as possible, looking forward to the successful completion of the filming..
