Hollywood Lover

   Now the hero and heroine and the biggest villain, Agent Smith, have been settled. The rest of the characters are much easier.

  However, Zhang Dongcheng encountered trouble when he chose Morpheus, the leader of Neo. Because Laurence Fishburne, who originally played this role, can't move the schedule at all now.

  He has been filming the film "The Surface of the Black Hole" since November last year, and he is still leading the leading role and playing the leading role.

  The movie is still in the process of being filmed. According to the estimate there, when the filming is completed, it will probably be March to April this year.

   Before filming, The Matrix needs to give all members basic martial arts training for a long period of time. As for Lawrence Fishburne's situation, it is obvious that Zhang Dongcheng can only reluctantly give up his favorite replacement! Because Zhang Dongcheng didn't have that long to wait.

  However, Zhang Dongcheng has encountered such a situation. Imerton, the priest of the mummy, had replaced him with Jason Statham before, so it's okay to replace Morpheus now.

   Imerton's Jason Statham is perfectly capable of playing the role of Morpheus.

  Morpheus himself is a very powerful force leader in the movie, which is similar to Imerton played by Jason before.

  Letting him play Morpheus is sure to be very effective. In addition, Jason has become famous in The Mummy before. In his words, he can also attract some fans of Emerton.

  The remaining few roles, because they are not important in the play, Zhang Dongcheng simply distributed them all to the key supported artists in the company.

  Like Andy, in The Matrix, playing that computer genius, Natural, Tank! Of course, his slightly chubby figure can definitely be called a tank.

  After all the characters were selected, Zhang Dongcheng received another piece of good news. The location of the martial arts training camp has been found, a Chinese Wing Chun martial arts gym in Los Angeles.

  After seeing the interior decoration of this martial arts hall, Zhang Dongcheng immediately made a decision. Not only did the actors choose this place for their martial arts training, but even the martial arts scenes in the plot were also decided to be filmed here.

   Due to the poor management of this martial arts school, there are not many students now. The owner of the martial arts gym is now Mrs. Liang Wanjun. She is a woman in her forties, with a slightly fat body and long curly hair. Very pure Chinese, always with a kind smile on his slightly fat face.

   Mrs. Liang seemed very enthusiastic about Zhang Dongcheng renting her martial arts gym to shoot a movie. She not only agreed directly, but even offered to reduce part of the rent.

  After negotiating about renting the martial arts gym, Mrs. Liang specifically found Zhang Dongcheng.

   "Oh! Mr. Zhang, if you shoot a movie in my martial arts school, I believe I will be able to recruit a lot of apprentices in the future, right?" Mrs. Liang had a shy smile on her face. Looking at him expectantly, he asked.

  Considering the issue of The Matrix, Zhang Dongcheng raised his head when he heard the words: "Yes, Mrs. Liang, I think after this movie is released, your Wing Chun gym will definitely become a beautiful landscape in Hollywood!"

   Mrs. Liang's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and said, "That...Mr. Zhang, I have an unfeeling request! Of course, if you think it's inappropriate, you can refuse me!"

   Seeing Mrs. Liang's cautious look, Zhang Dongcheng was a little confused, so he asked in surprise: "I don't know if there is anything I can do for you, Mrs. Liang, just ask me!"

   "That's right!" Mrs. Liang looked a little embarrassed. Embarrassed, he said: "I don't know if I can make a cameo in the movie. Of course, just give me a small role, even if I don't have any lines! In fact, I like movies very much, and I wanted to do one in the past. An actor, but because my father had no children at the time, I had to inherit his family business, so in the end I had to choose to manage this martial arts gym!"

   Speaking of the latter, Mrs. Liang's tone seemed a little lonely.

   Zhang Dongcheng frowned when he heard the words, the current roles have basically been determined.

   But from what Mrs. Liang said, it can be seen that she is a person who likes movies very much, but in the end she had to give up her hobby sadly because of her father. This kind of woman is a very typical Chinese thinking, and the three obediences and four virtues seem to be found in her.

  Just because of her hobby, Zhang Dongcheng felt that it was necessary for him to arrange a role for her.

  Seeing that Zhang Dongcheng did not speak, Mrs. Liang suddenly felt uneasy. After a moment of silence, he smiled disappointedly and said, "Mr. Zhang, you don't have to make things difficult. If you can't, it's okay!"

   "No!" Zhang Dongcheng shook his head, and said seriously: "Mrs. Liang, you misunderstood. I don't feel embarrassed. I'm just thinking about what kind of role I want to arrange for you."

  Mrs. Liang suddenly felt hopeful, and looked at Zhang Dongcheng expectantly.

  Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Zhang Dongcheng's mind. With a look of surprise in his eyes, he looked Mrs. Liang up and down.

  In the original Matrix, there was indeed a yellow character, and it also played a vital role in promoting the plot! That is the prophet Morpheus led Neo to look for.

  Although the role of the prophet is very important, there are very few scenes. So until now, the actor has not yet been determined. If Mrs. Liang is allowed to play the prophet...

   Soon, Zhang Dongcheng's eyes lit up. I have to say that although Mrs. Liang, who practiced Wing Chun since she was a child, is nearly forty years old, her eyes are unusually bright, her skin is not obviously loose, and the kind smile on her face is even more impressive at a glance. Can produce a sense of trust and goodwill.

  Although the idea of ​​letting Mrs. Liang act as a prophet broke into Zhang Dongcheng's mind, whether she really has the talent to act in movies still needs to be checked by Zhang Dongcheng himself.

   "Mrs. Liang, there is indeed a role on my side that has not yet been confirmed. In my original idea, this role is a Chinese. I hope you can come and try it." Zhang Dongcheng suggested.

   "Of course! Of course! It's no problem!" Mrs. Liang became excited, quickly drew a cross on her chest with her fingers, and said gratefully: "Oh, Mr. Zhang, God will bless you!"

   Obviously, Mrs. Liang is a devout Christian. In the United States, as long as you don't interfere with others in terms of beliefs, then you are free to believe in anything.

  In the United States, there are so many religious organizations that it is almost impossible to count them. The procedures for establishing a new religion are also very simple. There is even a rather weird church in the United States that believes in the nose. Yes, this sect believes that the human nose is a god!

  The topic is getting far.

  After obtaining Mrs. Liang's consent, Zhang Dongcheng came up with a script about the role of the prophet. He handed it to her and said, "Mrs. Liang, you can take a look at this script first, and then pick out a part you like to play! A few words are enough, I just need to see if you can interpret the connotation of this role." Come!"

  The role of the prophet is very small, only a few minutes in the original play. And Zhang Dongcheng didn't add a new role for her here.

  Mrs. Liang excitedly took over the script, regardless of Zhang Dongcheng, and just started to read it.

  The more she looked at her, the brighter her eyes became. Soon, Mrs. Liang closed the script and said, "Mr. Zhang, thank you so much. I think I can try it now!"

  Hearing this, Zhang Dongcheng spread his hands, indicating that she could start.

  After Mrs. Liang closed her eyes and pondered for a while, a smile appeared on her face as if everything was under control. Not only did this smile not make people feel weird, but it added a bit of trust and affection to her.

   "It doesn't matter about the vase!" Mrs. Liang said with a smile.

   She waited for a moment, and Zhang Dongcheng understood that this was the time for Neo to break the vase.

   "It's that vase!" Mrs. Liang maintained the smile just now, paused again, and said, "I said, it's okay! I'll let those children fix it!"

   "I think what's more confusing to you now is... Didn't I say you would break the vase?" Mrs. Liang looked at Zhang Dongcheng with an inexplicable look.

  The kind of eyes that seemed to be all-encompassing and piercing made Zhang Dongcheng stand up in an instant, and said excitedly: "It's great! Mrs. Liang, it's you, welcome to join the crew of The Matrix!"

  From a professional performance point of view, Mrs. Liang's performance has many flaws, and in some places it is even inferior to those third-rate actors. But don't forget, this is her first performance, and it's still a one-man show.

  Pretend that there is a person in the room and you are communicating with him. And he maintained that posture of mastering everything, and there was even a look of seeing through the world in his eyes. It definitely takes talent.

  Talent is very irrational. If you have it, you have it, and if you don’t, you don’t have it. It cannot be accomplished by hard work.

  As Edison said, genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. But that one percent inspiration is the most important, even more important than the ninety-nine percent perspiration.

  Undoubtedly, Mrs. Liang is the one who has this one percent inspiration, and Andy is a person who moves forward through hard work.

   This does not mean that Andy has no talent, it can only be said that his talent is much worse than that of Mrs. Liang.

After deciding to let Mrs. Liang play the role of prophet, Zhang Dongcheng felt a little pity for her. If Mrs. Liang hadn't given up her pursuit of film and acting career due to family reasons, maybe there would be an extra Chinese star in Hollywood now !

  Of course, if this is the case, then Mrs. Liang will not come to participate in Zhang Dongcheng's movie.

  Ms. Liang, who joined the crew, became more and more concerned about the film. She is a master of Wing Chun, and even participated in the special martial arts training of the actors, helping Yuan Heping and others to lay the foundation for these actors.
