263 Start fighting back
“The atmosphere on the set of "Fast and Furious 5" was so tense that it made people breathless. Everyone returned to their work stations and concentrated on their work - at least pretending to concentrate, but they could feel the air in the corner of their eyes. There is an undercurrent surging, and it seems that everyone is being forced to take sides, either Vin Diesel or Paul Walker.
The two pillars of the crew suddenly fell out, and no one knew how it would develop next. The crew of "Fast and Furious 5" was really in trouble. After the filming started, they first encountered Dwayne Johnson's farce , and then faced various difficulties in filming in Rio de Janeiro. Finally, the filming officially started, but the two core actors broke up again. So what will happen in the next few months of filming? Can the movie still be completed as planned?？
The powerful bosses of the crew arrived at the scene and successfully calmed everyone down before the conflict intensified. The crew's work returned to normal, but the tense atmosphere just now has not dissipated..
Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Cheng Kang, Gal Gadot and others did not move their positions and were still sitting in the rest area. It seemed that they were just staying put, but in fact, they were all sitting with Paul. Together; Fan rushed back to the dressing area. Ludacris hesitated for a moment, followed the footsteps, and kept whispering to Fan, trying to appease Fan's emotions, but obviously, Fan did not Buy it.
“I heard that Renly offended Fan, back in Telluride..”
“How did I hear that it was because Renly and Paul had an old friendship. Paul wanted to give Renly more scenes, but Fan objected, and the negotiation fell apart..”
“Nonsense, Renly is obviously the parachute directly assigned by the higher-ups. His connections are very strong, don’t you know? Even Spielberg sells his face.”
“The version I heard is not like this. In Telluride, Van fell in love with a woman in a bar, but she was snatched away by Renly. The two of them fought for a while, and then they became grudges..”
“Real or fake? Why did the news I heard say that Fan planned to punish Renly today and teach him a lesson. But Paul found out and Fan felt embarrassed, so they started a quarrel..”
“How could this be true? It was just a prank. How could it be so serious? Tell me, I am very sure that Renly is the third protagonist of the crew this time. In fact, the main company intends to use Renly to form an iron triangle and reduce the number of Paul and Fan. Paul didn't care about the scene and nodded readily. However, Fan was unwilling to delegate power, so the fight started..”
“What is Renly's background? Why does it sound so awesome? I don’t remember any big shot in Hollywood with the surname Hall..”
“What, can't he change his name? Only those who really know the inside story know his family background. I guess he must be some big shot. Maybe he is another Kennedy..”
“What nonsense. But what do you think Renly should do?？”
This last question immediately ended all gossip discussions..
In the brief argument between Paul and Fan just now, although Renly's name was not mentioned directly, the meaning behind the words was very clear. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was related to Renly. In the blink of an eye, the entire crew began to secretly There were whispers below, and the discussion was very lively..
But these gossips are not important. What is important is, what should Renly do next? Now Fan can be said to be furious, unable to find an outlet for his anger. This afternoon is the scene where Renly appears for the first time, and it is also the scene where he confronts Dominic and Brienne. If Fan takes advantage of the situation and fights, then Renly is really going to suffer..
Renly had a height advantage, being half a head taller than Van, but Renly's figure looked really... thin. In front of Van's muscles that were as high as rocks, Renly looked like a fragile paper man. , let alone confronting Fan, it seems that as long as Fan blows a breath, Renly will be torn to pieces. This is completely a confrontation between lightweight and heavyweight, with a full middleweight division containing four small levels separated in the middle..
What's worse is that Hobbes is the character who confronts Dominic, and there is even a fight scene later. Moreover, when writing the script, in order to highlight the strength of the protagonist, Dominic won the final victory - this It is also a consistent approach in commercial movies..
But imagine that before, Hobbes was played by Dwayne, who was a head taller, two times bigger, and three levels stronger than Van. In other words, even Dwayne's confrontation in the movie He was also at a disadvantage, now Renly……
The scene was so bloody that it was unimaginable.
This afternoon, how should Renly respond to the furious Van? Can he see the sun tomorrow?？
Justin Lin was also worried about this matter. He couldn't help but feel a headache, but he had to face it. He was not worried about Renly's situation, but worried about the subsequent filming of the movie. If Renly was injured, the crew's filming would definitely be affected. , we are already making progress. As a result, whether we can catch up with next year's summer schedule is a big question mark..
Justin and Renly did not have a private one-on-one conversation. Anyway, he had no right to intervene in the selection of characters; moreover, for the "Fast and Furious" series, except for Fan and Paul, all other characters are It can be replaced. Justin has no special fondness or dislike for Renly. He just hopes that the filming can be completed smoothly..
Looking at Renly in front of him, Justin couldn't help but feel a dull pain in his temples, "...Are you okay? Are you ready?"？”
Renly looked at Justin in front of him and couldn't help but feel a sense of intimacy..
The struggle of Asians in North America is always extremely difficult. Even among the staff who are invisible behind the scenes, Asians are the most vulnerable group; they are not as good as Hispanics, African Americans, etc., and among Asians, the Chinese The situation is more difficult than that of Indians, Koreans, and Japanese. Therefore, people like An-Lee, Justin Lin, and James-Wan (James-Wan, Wen/Zi/Ren) rely on their own abilities to make a world of their own. A man whom Renly greatly admired..
Deep inside this skin, Renly is still Chinese.
“Yes, I'm ready." Renly smiled and nodded, saying politely.
Justin was stunned, not expecting such a friendly welcome. He is a Chinese and understands the discrimination here more clearly than anyone else. Currently, in his list of directorial works, the only works he can produce are "Fast and Furious". /Love 4" - the third film was a hit. If he wants to win the respect of these white actors, he needs to work harder and deliver more excellent works..
Just like Fan, he never had enough respect for Justin and always gave orders in a condescending manner. But Fan also shouldered the title of producer, and Justin couldn't put on the airs of a director - this is what Justin learned from Renly. Reasons to buy.
The words that came to Justin's mouth couldn't help but paused, and finally just nodded, "Well, the next shooting...maybe a little more intense. You'd better be prepared, and then...yes, you'd better be prepared." ." Justin didn't know what to say, so he could only repeat his instructions..
When turning to leave, Justin couldn't help but glance at Renly, but after hesitation, he turned and left. What could he do? This is Hollywood, a Hollywood where disadvantaged groups have no say. Even Ann Lee, as the top Chinese director in Hollywood, still has very limited say, let alone him.？
Deep in his heart, Justin silently wished Renly good luck..
What we are filming this afternoon is a big scene, divided into several small scenes.
Dominic and Brian decided to rob the local gang boss's vault, but they found that they were wanted. FBI agent Hobbs was looking for them. In order to avoid the plan being leaked, they decided to take the initiative and set up a trap to lure/ Lure Hobbes into taking the bait, make head-on contact, and then use the local advantages of Rio de Janeiro to temporarily shock Hobbes. This can buy them some time to complete the robbery mission..
The scene shot in the afternoon was the scene where Dominic, Brian and Hobbs faced each other. Dominic and Brian chose to expose their positions in an underground racing track. As expected, Hobbs followed the clues and found them. Just as the FBI was investigating... When the agents were about to show off their power, they found that the agents were trapped in a circle. At the end of the confrontation, Hobbs chose a temporary compromise and evacuated the scene..
In the "Fast and Furious" series, Dominic and Brian are undoubtedly the absolute core protagonists, whether they are criminals or justice, but they are the ones who win in the end. Even the FBI agents must be reduced to foils.
In other words, in today's scene, Hobbes is at a disadvantage, but he cannot be completely overwhelmed by Dominic. Otherwise, there will be no point in introducing this new character in the fifth part..
In the movie, the story takes place in Rio de Janeiro, but the crew set up a scene in the Universal Studios studio and will complete the filming here. Although it is a bit more troublesome, it is better than what the entire crew encountered when shooting on location in Rio de Janeiro. The gang's siege comes easily.
The scenes are all ready, the staff are all in place, the extras are also in place, and the main actors have begun to appear..
Fan methodically twisted his shoulders and cracked his fingers. The crisp sound of his joints made the calm and confident smile on his lips look full of danger. At this time, he had completely unloaded his burden, without any trace of it. The idea of hiding one's intentions was revealed nakedly, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Renly, who was standing twenty yards away, just like a hunter examining his prey, showing his sharp claws, The smell of blood lingers between lips and teeth.
He is a born hunter, and he will never miss his prey. Even if Dawn comes, he is not afraid at all, let alone Renly? He wants this kid to truly understand what an action actor is, what absolute strength is, what respect and humility are. Also, what is the cruelty of reality..
