Morgan Freeman thought for a while and said: "Mr. Ye will bring a lot of changes to the entertainment industry. I believe this, but when filming movies in Hollywood, Mr. Ye also has to integrate into this place. Your identity is enough You have a foothold in Hollywood, but if you want to be recognized by the entertainment industry as an actor, you still have to excel in acting under such circumstances. Otherwise, even if you are the president of Huihuang.com, As a result, you can't make it in Hollywood as an actor."
Ye Ming is now qualified enough to talk to them, but this qualification is a commercial qualification. It does not mean that Ye Ming has really gained everyone's recognition in Hollywood as an actor.
What Morgan Freeman said is based on experience. Although almost everyone knows this experience in Hollywood, he is now telling Ye Ming that it can also help Ye Ming avoid some detours.
Will Smith said a little bit: "What Mr. Freeman said is correct. At this time, your acting skills must be integrated into the overall Hollywood movies. Otherwise, even if you are lucky enough to get the opportunity to act in one or two movies, In the future, it is impossible to have the opportunity to show off in Hollywood. The fusion of styles is quite critical in Hollywood."
In any classic movie, the actor's style is very integrated, and in this case, the overall movie style is very consistent with that of Hollywood. Whether it is a war film, a romance film, or a science fiction film, although the content and form may be different.
But the overall style of the movie and the actors' acting skills are very Hollywood-like. Only movies like this have the chance to become classics in the history of Hollywood movies. For example, The Terminator is an example, Will Smith's Men in Black, Leonardo's Tyanic, and so on. It has a strong Hollywood label.
Therefore, at this time, Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "I have been looking for an opportunity to truly experience the Hollywood acting style, but I believe that I can still cope with it. I've always wanted a chance to be part of a Hollywood movie, and I thought this would be my chance."
The final result. Even at the party, no one could really understand whether Ye Ming could truly integrate into the Hollywood movie style. Because Ye Ming has strong self-confidence, self-confidence is also very important in Hollywood.
About Ye Ming’s aura. Everyone knows very well that he has a powerful aura that is not inferior to any superstar on the scene. Ye Ming's powerful aura, according to Morgan Freeman's judgment, is a powerful aura at the level of 100,000 people. Therefore, when everyone does not find enough reasons. No one is willing to test Ye Ming's acting style.
Returning to the set, Tom Cruise said directly: "Ye Ming's aura is very powerful. Even Mr. Morgan Freeman said that his acting skills are at the level of 100,000. The aura of this young person in Hollywood." On the field, it’s already pretty good.”
In Hollywood, there is a special standard for judging whether a person's aura is strong or not. This standard is related to the stage. People who can act calmly in front of a theater of 5,000 people can go to Broadway shows. Stage plays can only be calm and composed when facing a theater of 10,000 people. Only then can I have the opportunity to play a role in a TV series.
In order to have the opportunity to perform in a movie, even if it is a supporting role, 20,000 people is the minimum standard, that is to say, in any movie in Hollywood. As long as he plays a role with lines, his aura can at least cover a theater of 20,000 people.
If it is an important supporting role, it is impossible to win it without the performance ability of 50,000 people. And real superstars, people like Tom Cruise, can calmly perform on stage in front of 100,000 people.
The eyes of a hundred thousand people were focused on one person, and this person felt nothing at all. One hundred thousand people. This is also the minimum standard for the 20 million salary club.
Among Hollywood movie actors, those who have reached this level are not necessarily those who are in the 20 million salary club, but for these superstars who are in the 20 million salary club, under such a situation. These have all reached this standard.
As for Ye Ming, in the eyes of Tom Cruise and Morgan Freeman, at least in terms of aura, he is a very powerful person. His powerful aura makes no one dare to underestimate Ye Ming. .
Spielberg thought for a while and said: "That's also a test of Ye Ming's acting skills. The first scene today is Ye Ming's solo performance. He plays one of the three prophets. Character, when you play with him, you have to suppress him and let him really explode. In this case, whether he is qualified to stay in our crew depends on his own performance this time."
Spielberg would not be at ease if he did not test Ye Ming's acting skills. Regarding such a matter, in fact, no matter how it is, as a director, you have to be responsible for your own film, and so does Ye Ming. You can't stay outside the crew.
This time, it's not that Spielberg is embarrassing Ye Ming, but that in fact every director of the crew must test whether their actors are consistent with the overall style of the movie.
Therefore, it seems that the entire crew began to prepare for today's shooting.
The role played by Ye Ming is Burgess, a master with prophetic abilities. There are not many opportunities to appear in Minority Report, and there are even fewer opportunities to shine. But he is undoubtedly the number one villain.
He still used it as a reliable system even though he knew it had loopholes, and thus gained supreme honor and great wealth.
In order to take advantage of the "Prophet", Lamar used his familiarity and loopholes in the system to murder the "Prophet's" mother (a person who wanted her child back); in order to cover up the loopholes in the system, Lamar framed and murdered two people who discovered that the system might have loopholes.
The system that prevents murder becomes the inventor's accomplice to murder!
This role was originally played by the veteran Hollywood actor Max von Sydow, but in the end there was no doubt that von Sydow missed such a role because he had other acting opportunities. Later, Ye Ming got such a role. A chance to perform.
Because this was modified by the Entertainment Empire System itself, no one thought there was anything special about this matter. It was just that Ye Ming used his special status to get such a role.
Therefore, Ye Ming came to star as the number one villain. This is something that many people in the crew are not convinced of.
Ye Ming must conquer everyone in a short period of time, otherwise, at a time like this, he will be directly squeezed out. It’s not just the director who looks down on Ye Ming. Moreover, many people would not cooperate with Ye Ming in such a situation, and even the production staff looked down on Ye Ming.
In Hollywood, if you have the opportunity to perform any kind of role, the first one is to have matching acting skills and be able to control the appearance of a role. In this case. Only then can we win the respect of everyone on the crew.
At this time, Ye Ming's first shot was a special shot, which was also specially designed by Spielberg.
In such a situation, Ye Ming's first sentence was: "You have no way to escape."
Because Burgess has the ability to predict crimes, in such a situation, his words show his strong confidence in his own language system. No one can escape his sanctions. As long as he wants to deal with someone. That's all a piece of cake.
So, in a moment like this, the first shot is a strong and confident performance of Burgess' character.
This is also the first scene in the film in which Burgess meets the audience, in which he talks to himself in the air. This is indeed a rather ruthless character designed by Spielberg himself.
Because if you have someone to play against, even if it's Tom Cruise, the actor has a reference point, which makes it easier to perform. But if it's a person talking to himself, it's more difficult to perform.
Because you don’t know what kind of character the director wants. Especially since this scene was not in the original character and was temporarily added by Spielberg, it was even more difficult to perform.
And this is a very common saying. There is no passion, so in terms of emotions, there is almost no need to control it, just like the tone of talking to oneself.
But it just so happens that this is also Burgess’s first line. If this line means that Ye Ming can't speak well, then in such a situation, it is impossible for his family to excel.
In fact, many people still objected to why a Chinese was used to play a role like a prophet, but in the end, director Spielberg himself decided to play such a role under such a situation. Once the director has decided this, it cannot be changed.
The reason given by Spielberg is that Eastern people are very mysterious and Eastern culture is very mysterious. It can be used for predictions and can attract the attention of many audiences.
Especially when it comes to attracting Asians, if a character with a certain appearance is included in the movie, it will be very beneficial to the entire movie. Under such a situation, Ye Ming's role was finally decided. Today, for the first time, Ye Ming has a real opportunity to show off his talent in Hollywood.
Each department prepares, and Old Andre makes the decision. This is an opportunity to see Old Andre's status in the crew. If the director hadn't trusted him, then in such a situation, this would have been impossible. Opportunity to hit the wall.
With the sound of the film rolling in the camera, everyone began to quiet down at this time. The scene was in the office. Ye Ming appeared in front of the camera with that surprisingly youthful make-up.
This is also a character characteristic requested by Spielberg himself. What the director means is that for an Oriental to play the role of a prophet in a movie, this is already quite visually impactful. It is not impossible for Ye Ming to make up as a middle-aged man, but since Asians are subversive enough, in such a situation, at this time, Ye Ming himself is a little younger, in his twenties, which is even more shocking. People's hearts.
Because the prophet is originally a magical character. No one knows in advance what kind of person he is and how old he is. Since he doesn’t know, why is it impossible to use a young character to represent the prophet. This is also a very normal thing.
Under such a situation, Ye Ming's character had almost no makeup and acted in his true colors. At least in terms of age, the director had no requirements for the role of the prophet Burgess.
An Easterner who grew up in the West is a prophet, which is a completely subversive role.
If he succeeds, Ye Ming is qualified enough to gain a foothold in Hollywood. If he fails to succeed, it is not impossible for the director to change roles.
Therefore, at this time, almost everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Ming.
Ye Ming seemed to be adjusting his emotions, and seemed to be trying hard to convince himself. Maybe he saw the future. Anyway, it's a rather contradictory expression.
At this time, Ye Ming said calmly: "Now is the time to witness the miracle."
This sentence, whether it was the director or old Andre, made them look at the night light in front of the camera with wide eyes.
Change the lines. If everyone didn't know what Ye Ming's first line was like early on, it almost means that no one would think that Ye Ming would be so bold as this.
Even big Hollywood stars, even superstars with a salary of 20 million yuan, would not dare to change their lines casually in such a situation.
In such a matter, Ye Ming's true performance is simply deviant. In Hollywood, even if Tom Cruise wants to change his lines, it is not impossible, but it is very troublesome and must be discussed with the director. The screenwriter discussed it carefully. Just like Tom Cruise wouldn't just ask to change his lines.
The other supporting characters naturally don't have the guts to act like this.
Moreover, under such a situation, Ye Ming changed Spielberg's lines for the first performance. How could this not surprise the crew? (To be continued.)
