British 1986

The crew started filming quietly, without any publicity.

Allen secretly increased the film's budget to an insane budget of nearly £20 million.

Once this amount is exposed, it is estimated that Allen will become famous in the world, let alone the UK.

The amount is really huge, and this doesn’t even count the amount of investment that people from the island country will make. Allen estimates that the people at Sony in this island country don’t understand movies. How can that old guy Patrice help him make money? How about one or two million pounds?

What is the concept of more than 20 million pounds in total?

Calculated according to this year's depressed exchange rate, it would be almost 30 million US dollars.

If you take this price to Hollywood and play it seriously, you can make almost a dozen small and medium-budget movies!

If a movie like this is made with such a budget and is publicized by the outside world, it will be scolded by people who don't know the truth.

Holding his beloved cool sterling silver gilt trumpet, Allen was dressed in sportswear and wearing a sun-visible peaked cap.

There was a servant dressed in low-key clothes next to him, holding a parasol for him. Not far behind him was a security team of five servants, ready to give him various cold drinks at any time.

Today's scenes were not shot according to the story flow, but the most difficult ones were shot first.

This can be regarded as the only chase scene in this film. After the male protagonist kills someone, he is seen by the old man who is following him. The male protagonist wants to kill and silence him. The old man drives away and the male protagonist chases behind him on a bicycle.

Theoretically, you can't catch up with a car on a bicycle, but...

Isn't this a movie? You have to arrange for some accidents. The old man thought about calling the police while driving.

In the original drama, the old man was using an Apple mobile phone. It was very small. He didn't hold the phone firmly and picked it up. He held the steering wheel with one hand and fumbled for the phone with the other hand. He accidentally turned to the steering wheel and the car drove into the road. In the woods on the side, a car accident occurred and crashed into the river not far from the roadside.

but now.

I don’t have such a small smartphone, but I still have to show this kind of plot. What should I do?

I can only go to Big Brother.

Regardless of whether there is a signal in the wild or whether it is a bug, this plot is arranged this way anyway.

Instead, Allen thought it would be more reasonable to call Mobile Phone.

With such a big phone in your hand, it’s normal for it to fall if you can’t hold it firmly.

Today's stunt scene about a car accident required off-site support. The stuntman driving the car was recruited by Alan's "little secretary" Li Zhi in Xiangjiang.

Nicknamed Xiao Hei, he is currently the most senior expert in car stunts in the Hong Kong and Taiwan film industry.

Let a stuntman of this level cooperate in shooting a stunt shot of a small car rushing down the roadside, holding a handle.

"Hey, Your Excellency, when do you think we should start?"

Xiao Hei's voice is very similar to Allen's, both are extremely hoarse, but Xiao Hei has a bit of a big tongue, and when he speaks English, his accent is thicker.

But Allen was not as rude to him as he was to the islanders with accents. He patted Xiao Hei on the shoulder and said, "Are the safety measures ready? Check the car again. Don't be anxious. Safety is the most important thing."

"Hey, it's okay, it's okay, Your Excellency."

Xiao Hei quietly glanced at the ambulance standing by at any time, as well as the person in charge of Carmarthen Public Hospital and a large number of doctors. He felt that this formation was a bit staggering and too grand. Just park an ambulance. Your Excellency, Earl This posture.

I just wanted to bring the entire hospital staff to the scene.

However, His Excellency the Earl's move is quite heart-warming. It is rare to see a British guy who cares so much about the safety of his men nowadays.

Although he was taken in by Miss Li, Xiao Hei was a little unhappy when he first heard that he was going to work for the British. He was not from Xiangjiang, so he didn't need to look too hard at the British.

Now when I got in touch with him, I found that this British aristocratic gentleman still looked like that. He really had an aristocratic demeanor, he looked grand, and he was a good boss!

"Okay, everyone, get ready to start!"

Now that the stuntmen were ready, Allen picked up his cool little speaker and pretended to shout.

There was already a camera crew with experience in one movie, so there was no need for him to keep an eye on it all the time. Let them shoot. Anyway, we couldn't see how the shooting was going to be on set, and Allen was too lazy to shoot like the previous movie. When you are so tired, just play it!

In the first filming session, we first filmed the scene where the old man drives a car and is chased by the male lead on a bicycle.

The same silver-gray Ford sedan was pulled by an old-fashioned flatbed truck with the rear fender removed. The elderly actor was a special actor hired from the Screen Actors Guild and was not well-known.

This scene is very simple. He only needs to make movements with the mobile phone and move the steering wheel with his hands a little. The camera mounted on the truck only needs to capture a clip of him showing his face.

Allen held the telescope and stood far away. This was Hu Te's special instructions.

The young master makes movies and likes to have fun, so forget it.

Whenever dangerous scenes are involved, you must stay away and maintain a safe distance.

When the servants saw this kind of scene being filmed, they were very nervous and pulled Allen far away. Allen could only watch the crew filming with a telescope.

It can be said that safety work has been achieved to the extreme.

"Master, are you thirsty? Do you need something to drink?"

"Don't drink, don't disturb me while I'm working!"

Allen waved his hand and looked at the set attentively with his binoculars.

The servant next to him looked at the studio a few hundred meters away, and then at the surrounding camp with a small pergola, like a small outdoor kitchen, and was speechless.

"Buzz!"

The silver-gray Ford car swerved, smashed two saplings on the roadside, and then disappeared into the jungle.

"good!"

After watching the shot, Allen put down the telescope, turned around and walked towards the car.

"Drive quickly, I want to go over and take a look."

"Master, let's wait a little longer. If the vehicle is damaged, it will be too dangerous for you to go there now."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and drive!"

The driver was a little unmoved, and after waiting for a long time, he stepped on the accelerator and drove more than 200 meters, pulling Allen to the shooting scene.

A large group of staff rushed into the woods. There is no river here, and the creek is on the other side of the road. When the time comes, they will waste another car and just fake a car accident scene.

The scene was a bit messy. Several layers of thick mats were placed on the concave ground on the roadside. This was to ensure the safety of the stuntman. Coupled with his driving skills, the entire vehicle was not damaged.

By the time Allen arrived at the scene, Xiao Hei had already been dragged out of the car. Several doctors were holding instruments up and down to check Xiao Hei's body to see if he was injured.

Allen was far away and heard Xiao Hei yelling in non-standard English: "I, I, I'm really fine. The airbags haven't been deployed. It's very simple. Don't draw blood."

He waved for the photographer.

"How about it?"

"Sir, don't worry. We are fully prepared. We can do this once! It's wonderful. This gentleman's driving skills are very good."

"Hahaha, that's enough, let's call it a day and let everyone clean up!"

Allen rubbed his hands excitedly. After filming this scene, he would set up the scene in the afternoon and shoot a new scene in the evening.

This is Allen's first time shooting a night scene, and he personally designed the shooting method. Thinking about it, I'm really looking forward to it.

"What's wrong? You don't seem to have any appetite."

Allen stretched out his hand to help Monica push the hair behind her ears. When his fingertips passed across Monica's ears, he gently scratched her earlobe with his nails.

Just like that, Monica's whole neck turned red.

She couldn't stand Allen's teasing. In the past few days, Mr. Allen would occasionally ask her to have dinner with him, acting a little ambiguous.

A young, noble, rich man, whose appearance was very in line with her aesthetics, cared about her tenderly, invited her to dinner, and occasionally made small movements with his hands.

These little gestures are either disgusting tricks that take advantage of others, or they are very serious concerns.

How should I put it, it makes Monica feel like a little sister who is doted on by her brother, which is very sultry.

But the key is that Allen doesn't do anything excessive, and he doesn't even take advantage of words. He seems to be a very gentleman.

But this kind of behavior was even more provocative, and Monica couldn't help herself. She had been teased by Allen these past few days, and she even felt like she hoped that Allen would bully her severely.

Even once, this feeling of neither going up nor down, ending abruptly every time when she was flustered, was really uncomfortable.

Now it's like this again

She was just a little shy and didn't have much appetite, so Allen cared for her very thoughtfully and gently helped him fix her hair, so as not to let her hair get contaminated on the food.

But this kind of action was more provocative than the little actions of the past few days, and Monica felt a little panicked again.

She knew some of the unspoken rules in the crew when making a movie. Although she had never experienced it, Monica, who was a model in the past, was quite knowledgeable about such things.

Now she really wants to be unspoken by the aristocratic director in front of her, but he can only tease her!

"It's okay, Mr. Allen, I had a late lunch and I'm not too hungry yet."

Monica, who was making gestures as she spoke, had her hands shaking a little and her gestures were a little deformed.

"Don't you like me?"

Allen chuckled, grabbed Monica's right hand in a playful manner, put it on his hand and kneaded it carefully.

Monica, whose hand was grabbed by Allen, trembled again, a feeling of being sealed came over her face. The Italian had no hands and it was even more awkward to speak.

She was not used to making gestures with her left hand.

"No no"

Seeing Monica's shy expression, Allen held Monica's right hand with his left hand and gently scraped her fingers with his thumb. European and American women have heavy body hair.

If you look closely, you can see that there is still a bit of fluff on Monica's fingers, which makes her very inferior to Oriental women.

But these little hands were still very tender, and even after touching Allen twice, he didn't let go. He sat slightly next to Monica, leaned into her ear and whispered softly: "In the evening, I will take you to do something fun, okay?" "

"What. What's fun."

Monica stumbled and asked instinctively, then turned her head to meet Alan's eyes.

These eyes were very bright and pure. When they looked at her, there was nothing mixed with them except emotion.

Monica's breathing was a little short of breath when Alan looked at her with such affectionate eyes.

An old man touched a lady's hand and was so close to her, and asked her what fun things to do at night. What else could it be?

Should the two of them learn Italian together?

Of course I have to take a biology class.

Allen didn't know whether Monica was really innocent or just pretending. Anyway, he felt that the heat was almost over after a few days of teasing.

He, Mr. Allen, can make him personally fall in love with a woman who has been flirting with her for a few days. Allen has never failed so far.

"You'll know later." The hot breath from Allen's nose, because the distance was too close, hit Monica's earlobe. The hot and itchy feeling made Monica's face redder.

"Grant! Are you into the drama now? Do you think of Monica as your wife?"

Siphis put his right hand on Hugh Grant's shoulder and talked as he walked.

"Sir, don't worry, I really regard her as my wife! I even feel like it's time to cook dinner for my children now!"

"Well, that's good! But that's not enough. Your Excellency is very particular about the details of the movie. The scene tonight is very simple. You also know that this is just a scene where you grieve alone after learning that your wife has cheated. But this kind of one-man show is very difficult to perform, it all depends on the micro-expressions on the actor’s face, plus a little bit of soundtrack in the later stage.”

Syphis told Hugh Grant the drama in a serious manner. Grant did not dare to neglect, listened to Syphis's words seriously, and nodded in agreement.

There's nothing I can do about it, he's the earl's servant!

It is not comparable to a civilian like him. This kind of person is still the assistant director of the crew, and whatever he says is what he says, even if he, Hugh Grant, is about to be crowned Best Actor at the Venice Film Festival, he still has to listen!

Because this is England, Wales, Carmarthen!

"Mr. Syffis, what should I do in today's scene?"

Seeing Grant's sincere face, Syphis couldn't bear it. This child has been familiar with the heroine for more than half a month. Coupled with the preparations in the past few days, he needs to give him something real now. Make him feel deeper.

"Well, Mr. Allen is still very knowledgeable in this area. Wait a moment. After you are in place, don't be surprised if you hear any strange noises. Mr. Allen will be staying on the set tonight. We are filming here, so be quiet. Please speak up and don't disturb your rest."

"Your Excellency, Allen, is going to spend the night on the set?"

Hugh Grant blinked, a little confused, not understanding what this was.

"Yes, and it's your couple's bedroom in the movie."

Siphis looked at Grant with a sincere face, and added smoothly: "Your Excellency is doing this for your own good, and he is also trying to help you better interpret that emotion. Don't let your Excellency live up to your painstaking efforts." ah."

"ah?"

After listening to Siffisi's words, Hugh Grant became even more confused. Why is Mr. Allen doing this for his own good?

For his own good, then

Why did Mr. Allen spend the night on the set tonight?
