Chapter 68： Shooting preparation

The opening ceremony has ended, and the reporters are all excitedly discussing. Gu Luobei's appearance is definitely a good thing for them. An artist who is willing to speak up, the reporter welcomes him with both hands and feet. Remembering the last sentence Gu Luobei said just now, the reporters couldn't help but have a good impression of the newcomer Gu Luobei.

"In the end, I think whether I am qualified for this role is not up to me, but the audience's comments. If the reporter also enters the cinema and watches the film at that time, then you are also eligible. Evaluate the film. As for you asking me now, 'I think I can play this role', of course I say I can, or do you expect me to have other answers?"

Full of confidence and sharp-edged, but very clear about his position, not complacent. The language is humorous and witty, and only a few words are used to create the climax of today's opening ceremony. Such a newcomer is indeed eye-catching.

But for Elliott Carter, today's opening ceremony was less interesting. Elliott Carter is the reporter who asked the question just now. As the special correspondent for today's "Premier", Elliott Carter is a shame. Although Gu Luobei's words did not target him, everyone knew that he was this poor target. An idiot question made Elliot Carter experience the power of cynicism firsthand. This seemingly harmless young rookie made him fall into such a big somersault! Elliott Carter was in a very, very bad mood.

"Premier" is one of the most famous film magazines in the United States. Although it is slightly inferior to "Film Review" in terms of influence, its sales are also very good. Gu Luobei has offended Elliott Carter today: he is definitely not a big-hearted person. Besides, in the profession of a reporter, it is easy to dig out big news by calculating, so Elliott Carter It was decided that in the manuscript of today's opening ceremony, he would teach Gu Luobei a lesson.

Shortly after the "Sniper Phone Booth" was launched, various media and magazines published relevant news one after another. In the press release published by "Entertainment Weekly", William Wood strongly praised Gu Luobei's calmness and witty words in the face of reporters, and again mentioned Gu Luobei's excellent performance in "Death Illusion". This "sniper phone booth" showed great expectations.

Contrary to William Wood, Elliott Carter's draft of "Premier" was much more negative.

"Arrogant and arrogant, this is Bell's first impression. Will Smith and Jim Carrey are just nobody in his mouth; being elected to star in a movie will involve the Screen Actors Guild. Came in as if it was the back garden of his house; in the face of the news reporter, he regarded himself as a god, full of nonsense. It is not known what Bell's strength is, at least we won't be able to get it before the release of 'Sniper Phone Booth'. Know the truth. But at least we can know that Hollywood has another vase of stupid and arrogant."

This is just a paragraph about the opening ceremony. The article also elaborates on interviews with Joe Schumacher, Forest Whitaker and others, but the language is also suppressed. Obviously, "Premier" is not optimistic about "Sniper Phone Booth" written by Elliot Carter.

When Gu Luobei saw the draft of "Premier", he stopped the angry Teddy Bell, "It's not necessary, being angry with this clown will only make us look like an idiot." Teddy Bell wanted to put the whole book "Premier" was all torn up, and Teddy Bell wouldn't have hesitated to wave his fist if Elliott Carter was in front of him. "At least he also admitted that I am a vase, which is the only positive information in the whole text." To be a vase, it is impossible to have no appearance. Gu Luobei was delighted to discover the only bright spot in the article.

"North!" Teddy Bell was about to die of depression. When he saw this article, he felt that he was instantly surrounded by angry flames, but Gu Luobei was still in the mood to joke here.

"Dear Teddy," every time Gu Luobei called Teddy Bell in this way, the elder brother, who had nothing to do with his younger brother, would always show a helpless smile, "You tore up the magazine, or hit that idiot reporter, no Anything that's useful will only get you a night at the police station. I think that's the most important thing to impress the audience with with my good performance in the movie. If the 'premier' can fire the misguided Carter So, next time we meet again, I don't mind if we continue to give him a second blow."

Teddy Bell's face immediately showed a smile, he knew that Gu Luobei was not easy to bully. The two brothers used to have fists in front, but as they grew older, they also discovered that in this society, fists are not The only solution to the problem. On the contrary, in many cases, wisdom is the most terrifying.

Seeing the malicious smile on Gu Luobei's face, Teddy Bell remembered how black-bellied his brother was, and then threw the magazine aside, "I'm looking forward to the next meeting with Mr. Carter. ." Teddy Bell twisted his fist, and if it could give Elliott Carter a mental and physical double-whammy, Teddy Bell would be happy to play in person.

Except for "Entertainment Weekly" and "Premier", in fact, most of the media reported the opening ceremony with a schadenfreude mentality, and the language was praised and criticized, but everyone expressed their expectations for the eloquent newcomer Gu Luobei: It is not an easy task to be able to calm down in such a big scene, and to put together an experienced reporter.

After the opening ceremony, the "Sniper Phone Booth" entered the shooting mode.

In order to perform this role well, Gu Luobei also put a lot of effort into modeling. Taking into account Stu Sheppard's age and occupation, Gu Luobei also knew that although he was mentally old enough, in fact there was still a gap in his 18-year-old face, so he didn't shave for a few days. At this time, he had already grown some cyan beards, which indeed made Gu Luobei's temperament a lot more masculine.

She has not had her hair cut since the Saint Denis Film Festival, and at this time the hair on her forehead has touched her eyebrows. In fact, Gu Luobei's hair is soft and easy to stick to his head, so he is always used to cutting his hair short, looking energetic and easy to take care of. But now that he has become an actor, Gu Luobei needs to grow his hair for different roles, so he hasn't cut it for a long time.

Under the care of the hair stylist, Gu Luobei's hair was put on a hard wax, and then combed into an elegant 28-point back in the 1980s, but because Stu Shepard is a public relations officer, his status is in the It is a role that mediates in the middle. Gu Luobei's back is too elegant, and it is like a high society. So at Gu Luobei's suggestion, the stylist used cheap hair oil to apply it again, adding a little more vulgarity to the upstart. The makeup artist also darkened Gu Luobei's face a little bit. As soon as the vicissitudes of his eyes came out, the image of the middle class in society suddenly became three-dimensional.

That's not enough, the choice of clothing is also very particular. Since the movie takes place in a phone booth from start to finish, Stu-Shepard doesn't need to change clothes either, just one outfit. Then this suit is very important. It must reflect the status and identity of the male protagonist, and even conform to the character of the character.

At this point, Gu Luobei once again showed his deep understanding of the role, as well as the profound background of the two worlds, "Look, I said that the white shirt is too formal and too office. It is not suitable for Sri Lanka. Picture this kind of people hanging around in the market."

At this time, Gu Luobei was wearing black loose suit pants, pointed shoes, and a white cotton shirt. Wearing it like this, it has the feeling of the middle class, but it is more like an office white-collar worker.

The stylist shook his head, but the surprise in his eyes could not be swayed, "It's not the problem of the white shirt, it's your problem!" The stylist pulled Gu Luobei to look left and right. As a teacher, meeting Gu Luobei can be said to be lucky or unfortunate.

Fortunately, this skeleton figure is definitely a clothes hanger, and his temperament can easily support any piece of clothing. Even if I just wear a simple white shirt, a white shirt without any design or tailoring, a white shirt that can be found in the streets for 9.9 dollars, but it is still worn on Gu Luobei. An amazing feeling. That kind of temperament that radiates from the bones definitely does not belong to the age of 18, and it makes people sigh again and again Unfortunately, Gu Luobei, who is stylish even in a white T-shirt, is very concerned about Gu Luobei. There is no challenge for designers and stylists. Designers, stylists, and make-up artists alike dislike objects that are too perfect because their talents cannot be brought into full play. Gu Luobei is like this, which makes the stylist do not have the satisfaction of success.

Although Gu Luobei's back was smeared with cheap hair oil at this time, the blue beard also made him look a little more vicissitudes, and the white shirt was more like a street stall, but it can make people feel like saying no out of harmony. Speechless!

Gu Luobei smiled, "That's because my eyes and expression haven't changed. Look at how it looks now." Gu Luobei raised his head slightly, the expression in his eyes that was mixed with inferiority and self-confidence. With a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, he instantly showed a middle-class with a small and successful career. Sure enough, the temperament of the person is the most important!

The stylist held his chin and pondered for a while, which did fit a lot with Stu-Shepard, but it still felt a little worse, "Bell, are you sure you want to choose that peach-colored shirt?"

Gu Luobei nodded vigorously, "Peach red is actually an easy and cheap color, it depends on the design and dyeing. At first glance, that shirt is very bright, giving people a feeling of success and confidence; it can be seen for a long time. It is easy to have a cheap and vulgar feeling, more like a nouveau riche. This is perfect for Stu." Gu Luobei has a very clear understanding of clothing styling, not from his previous life Lin-Farrell's impression comes from Gu Luobei's own understanding of the character.

The stylist hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Then try it!"
