I'm not just an action star

Chapter 554 Two different tangos

Wu Long couldn't help looking at Kate Winslet, a film and television actress recommended by the country where the sun never sets.

Winslet was born in a family of performers in Berkshire, the country where the sun never sets. Influenced by his family, he loved acting since he was a child. He participated in stage plays as a child actor at the age of five. At the age of 11, he borrowed money from his grandmother to read plays despite his family's objections. School, at the age of 13, he took commercials.

Graduated at the age of 16, starred in a series of stage plays, and became a TV drama starred by TV stations.

This year, 20 years old.

The Sun never sets and wants her to be the heroine, but Wu Long vetoes it.If there is no one to choose, he doesn't care.It is conceivable to push Scarlett again to let Scarlett show her acting skills, and Wu Long will not let anyone else play the heroine.

Looking at Winslet's dignified, slightly chubby face and figure, Wu Long felt that the other party looked like a female star in her previous life.

That female star is famous for starring in "Titanic".

Imagining such a woman who looks like a medieval lady or a child of a wealthy family plays a vicious villain, and the contrast seems to be very good.

Wu Long called Winslet:

"Hi, I'm Wu Long."

"Brother Long, hello, I'm glad to receive your call."

Wu Long was very excited to hear Mike Winslet's tone.

"There is a character in "True Lies", not the heroine, but the villain. For you, such a role is very challenging. I wonder if you would consider it?"

Winslet's answer did not come through the phone immediately, and it took about 30 seconds before Winslet's voice was heard.

"Brother Long, I thought about it and decided to accept this challenge. However, I have never played a villain, and I hope to get your personal guidance."

Wu Long laughed heartily.

"Very well, this role is yours now. Come and sign the agreement when you are free."

"Thank you, Brother Long."

The other actors were also confirmed one by one and signed.

The preparation of tools has already begun.

Props preparation, the most important thing is an equal-scale Harrier fighter props.There are many shots that cannot be shot with real fighter jets. First, it consumes fuel and money.The second is that many dangerous actions can only be shot with props and cannot be shot in the air.

Contact the pilot of the Harrier fighter jet and hand it over to the country on which the sun never sets to negotiate with the military of the country of Merikan.The salary standard was finally determined to be 2410 US dollars per hour, and Wu Long secretly complained that it was really expensive.

The remuneration paid to the pilot by the crew alone is as high as more than 10 US dollars.

Gee.

In addition to contacting the Harrier fighter and the pilot, Wu Long also needs to fly the Harrier fighter.

Fly not just outside the city, but within the city of Miami.If only the film company applied for this kind of filming, I am afraid that the authorities will not approve it.

But the country on which the sun never sets coordinates and finally gets approval.

In addition to the model props of the Harrier fighter jet, there is also a miniature model of the Seven Mile Bridge.

The original version of "True Lies" filmed the missile bombing bridge, which was shot on the cross-sea bridge connecting the land with the southern island of Key West in Florida, also known as the "Seven Mile Bridge".

There are two bridges there, the old bridge has been blown up, the reason is to allow taller ships to pass through the bridge smoothly.

It was rumored on the Internet in the previous life that the crew repaired the bridge and blew it up for real shooting in order to shoot for real.There are also rumors that missiles were actually launched to blow up the bridge.

In fact, the real situation is not the case.The explosion scene is a model, not a real bridge explosion.It just used the broken bridge to shoot the scene after being bombed.

In addition to these model props, there are other model props to be made.

In addition to the production of props and models, the preliminary work also needs to contact the venue for shooting and the training of actors.

In addition to the Seven Mile Bridge and the manor at the beginning of the film, there are also the famous Westin Hotel and Lincoln Monument in Los Angeles, as well as the mansion in Miami.

In the movie, Wu Long wanted to ride a horse and chase through the Lincoln Monument, and finally entered the Westin Hotel.

The original version of "True Lies" passed through the Lincoln Monument and was rejected. I don't know if this version can pass the application.

Besides these, the most important thing is to dance.

Dancing is the three important scenes in "True Lies".Two tangos, one strip dance.

Wu Long wants to teach Scarlett and Winslet to dance in person.After making an appointment with the two girls, Wu Long first asked someone to make a soundtrack.

The tango dance in the movie adopts the famous Spanish tango song from the previous life, the violin song "por una cabeza".The Chinese translation is called "One Step Away".

"por una cabeza" in Spanish is originally a term for horse racing, meaning the length of "one (horse) head".It is used in songs to express regret for the intricacy and inseparability between lovers.

This gorgeous, noble and touching tango song is the ultimate representative of Argentine tango dance music, and it is also the most well-known and deeply in love with tango melody by music fans all over the world.

This famous tango song was used in many movies in the previous life.

Such as "Scent of a Woman" (female fragrance), "True Lies", "Schindler's List", "City Hall", "Sweet Spy", "Rhapsody in a Black Shop", "Du Lala's Promotion", "Bad Santa", "The King's Men", "Love in Chengdu".

Even the tango dance in the domestic TV series "Untouchable", "On the verge of triggering" and "Fated to Love You" also used this song.

It was "Scent of a Woman" and "True Lies" that made domestic people know about this song first.

For the soundtrack, of course he, the composer, will play this famous tango piece.

The orchestra is no stranger to Wu Long's musical accomplishments. If it weren't for the non-disclosure agreement signed, they would have to promote Wu Long immediately.

Scarlett and Winslet come to learn tango in evening dress.As soon as the two met, they both said in their hearts that the other was scheming.Scarlett thought even more, Winslet was young, but had a dignified, wealthy and familiar face, and that distinctive figure, so she guessed that Brother Long wanted to change his taste.

"Should you all know how to dance tango?" Wu Long asked Scarlett and Winslet.

As an actor, you should have the talent of dancing.What's more, both of them liked dancing since they were young and had acted in stage plays.

"Learn."

"meeting."

"In this way, you and I will try to dance a piece first." Wu Long played the accompaniment.

Dance with Scarlett first, after all, Scarlett is her own person and familiar with her.

When the music of "One Step Away" sounded, Scarlett was obviously taken aback.

She has never heard of this song!

Winslet next to her was also surprised.Seeing that Scarlet missed the beat in a daze, she secretly rejoiced that Wu Long was not the first to dance with her.If she and Wu Long were the first to dance, she must have made a fool of herself.

Wanting to understand this, she secretly thanked Wu Long in her heart, and praised Wu Long for his thoughtfulness.Wu Long must have thought of this, so he didn't dance with her first, he was taking care of her.

After all, she only knew Wu Long, and she had never filmed with Wu Long before.

And Scarlett was promoted by Wu Long, who specially made a movie "Super Body" for Scarlett, and directly promoted Scarlett.

Now Scarlett is a first-tier actress, but she is not even a third-tier actress.

However, even if she is a villain, she also knows that she will become a hit after the release of "True Lies".That's why she agreed to play the villain.

Wu Long expected that Scarlett would miss the beat, so he didn't stop dancing, but continued to lead Scarlett over the missed beat and started dancing.

Scarlett was ashamed, she didn't expect her performance to be so poor.Moreover, he behaved so poorly in front of a newcomer, and felt ashamed of himself.

"I'm sorry, I made a mistake." Scarlett, who reluctantly danced to Wu Long's rhythm, quickly confessed to Wu Long.

"Relax, don't be nervous. Follow my rhythm and adjust slowly. You are already a popular movie star, and you must learn to deal with crises calmly."

"Dancing tango is not like life where mistakes are not allowed. Sometimes mistakes are made in life, and regrets cannot be corrected for life. Tango dancing is different, it is very simple. If you make a mistake, just keep dancing. That's why tango is so fascinating."

Hearing Wu Long's comfort, Scarlett regained her confidence, and slowly followed the rhythm, finishing the tango.

After separating from Wu Long, Scarlett looked at Winslet, and found that Winslet's eyes looking at Wu Long were shining with countless stars.

This woman must be fascinated by Brother Long.Even if Brother Long doesn't take the initiative, she will take the initiative to seduce Brother Long.Scarlett thought to herself, well, just like she did back then.

Is there any woman in the world, any actress, who is not fascinated by the handsome and capable Brother Long?

Scarlett was really right.While Wu Long was comforting Scarlett, Winslet who was on the side saw Wu Long's warm and caring side.

What a warm man.

Another person who really knows how to dance, otherwise he wouldn't be able to say such philosophical and poetic words.

These words were well said, and they reached Winslet's heart.Melt her hesitant heart directly.

There are rumors in the entertainment industry that whoever gets on Wu Long's bed will become famous.Whoever is favored by Wu Long can act in his movie.

Wu Long asked her to play the villain this time, and she was already mentally prepared.If Wu Long wanted her, she imagined that she would not refuse.The thirty seconds of silence was when she imagined whether she would agree to Wu Long's request.

Wu Long is handsome and masculine, talented and muscular, which is better than those potbellied producers and directors with lustful eyes.

If you really want to get there, you might as well give it to Wu Long if you give it to others.

And these thoughts were just Winslet's thoughts before Wu Long danced.

After Wu Long danced, he first took good care of her and didn't let her dance first, and then he was so gentle to the errant. Such a man can be said to be perfect.

Winslet changed her mind in an instant, from passive to active.It would be a lifetime regret to miss such a man.

"Miss Winslet, it's your turn." Wu Long stretched out his hand to invite.

Winslet woke up from her thoughts, and walked towards Wu Long with a smile.

"Brother Long, call me Kate."

"Kate, would you like to dance with me?"

"Very willing, Brother Long."

The remote controller replayed the accompaniment, the music started, and Winslet and Wu Long danced lightly after getting ready.

It seems that the two danced together more in tune than Scarlett.This made Scarlett secretly worried and jealous.Looking at this woman, Winslet, her eyes were looking at Wu Long, she was simply electric.

But what can she do?

Wu Long said that this role is a big challenge for her.Angelique Voint won the Best Actress because of challenging the role of an ugly girl.Even if she can't win the best actress, other directors can see that her acting skills have risen to the top level after the movie is released.

At the end of the song, Winslet reluctantly left Wu Long.

"Just now I danced with both of you, now you talk about your own experience. If you danced with me during the filming, how should you behave?"

Both of them received their scripts and learned about the dancing scenes and explanations.

Scarlett looked at Winslet, and Winslet looked at Scarlett, both wanting the other to speak first.

"Scarlett, you go first." Wu Long called her name.

Scarlett was helpless, secretly thinking Brother Long, you would bully me.

"At the end of the movie, I dance tango with you, and there is an extra prop, a rose. I also have to bite the rose from the other party's mouth during the dance. I think it represents the tango between me and you. Enthusiastic and more unrestrained."

"The rose represents love. In the movie, the relationship between me and you is in crisis because of the long time of marriage and you are often not at home. At the end of the movie, this emotional crisis has passed, and the rose heralds the future married life. It is as passionate and unrestrained as first love. Like a tide."

"So, to show this in the dance, let the audience feel the sweetness of the rekindled love between the hero and heroine through this tango, and even the task does not need to be taken into account."

Wu Long nodded.

"Good research, it seems that you have spent time studying the script and polishing the characters."

"What about you, Kate?" Wu Long turned to ask Winslet.

Winslet sorted out the thoughts in her head, and she had expected Wu Long's possible questions.Of course, she didn't expect that Wu Long's question was about dancing. She thought that the question was about the understanding and shaping of characters, as well as the study of the script.

"I'm playing a female villain. In terms of character design, she is a woman who is willing to do anything for money, including killing or doing evil."

"From the perspective of the plot, this tango between me and you should be a kind of passion. After finding out that you dance well, it becomes a provocation. Even, there should be a kind of mutual deception and mutual distrust. In this way, there is another kind of temporary To perform, to conceal one's true purpose and identity."

"In the movie, I have met all the friends of the villain Ai Ge, but I have not met you, so I have reason to doubt you. I want to confirm whether your identity is as you said by dancing. At the same time, I am also impressed by your dance, Fascinated by temperament and handsomeness."

Wu Long applauded.

"Yes, you summed it up well."

"The tango I danced with you has the same accompaniment as the tango I danced with Scarlett, but they have to show different styles and convey different meanings to the audience."

"Actually, the tango I danced with Scarlett is easier to dance than the tango I danced with you, and it needs to be better expressed. The tango you danced with me is more difficult. So, if you dance well in this section, you can perform If done well, it will be brilliant."

"Your appearance is not that of a ruthless female villain, nor is your temperament that of a ruthless female villain. But if you play a real ruthless female villain with such an appearance, it will make people Your acting skills have been improved exponentially. At the same time, the contrast between your appearance and the villain can also make the audience remember you more."

"You're right. You dance with me. It's a kind of passion for a beautiful woman to see a handsome guy being fascinated by her. At the same time, there is a kind of teasing because she dances well. Accompanied by mutual distrust, want to To discover my true identity through dancing."

"Then, think one more step, is this provocation just a temptation?"

"The allure of beauty should be reflected in the movements and body language of the dance."

"However, this degree needs to be accurately grasped. Minus one point is awkward dance, one point is normal, and one point is reduced to pornography."

"Only by not reducing or not biasing can the charm be expressed and the audience feel the connotation of this tango."
