Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 332 De Niro arrives and introduces the person
Pei Chunhua took a fork of the food with great interest, and her expression changed immediately after the food entered her mouth.

What kind of food is this.

Weird taste.

Weird taste.

Rosamund Pike, (x_x)
After finally swallowing the food, I opened my eyes and saw Max's "Hannibal" smile right in front of me.

"How is the taste"

Pei Chunhua shuddered suddenly and said quickly: "Very good, Max, your cooking skills are really good."

"Then eat it all. Remember, don't waste it." Max's lips flashed a cold smile.

……

Eat enough and drink enough water.

The four of them gathered around the table, with Max temporarily leaving to clean up some of his own "tools of crime".

Pei Chunhua had a bitter look on her face. She discovered during the meal that neither Zhou Mo nor Da Tiantian touched Max's food from beginning to end.

"Zhou, and lick it. You two are really mean. You let me eat so much by myself."

Still Chinese.

Lest Max understand.

Zhou Mo smiled and said, "Practice makes perfect. You will know it after trying it once. Besides, I am helping you experience the plot of the movie."

"Ok?"

Rosamund Pike was stunned: "Can you experience the plot of a movie during a meal? I don't know much about Chinese, don't tease me."

Zhou Mo said bluffingly.

"Let me ask you, what is the relationship between the male and female protagonists Nick and Amy in the movie?"

"They control each other, they hate each other, but they can't live without each other."

Rosamund Pike’s Chinese is still not up to par.

This situation can actually be summed up in four words.

Fall in love and kill each other.

"Amy has thought about Nick's death many times, right?"

"Yes."

"So when you finished eating, how did you feel about Max?"

"Kill him, because the food is too hard to swallow." Pei Chunhua said subconsciously, and then the alliance reacted.

She looked at Zhou Mo, her eyes full of surprise.

"I see, Zhou, you really are a great director. You managed to force two things together that you don't want to be involved in."

Zhou Mo remained calm.

"Thank you for the compliment. I admire your acting skills. You are worthy of being able to act opposite Max. Even if the food tastes terrible, no one can tell."

Rosamund Pike: "But you were laughing at me just now, and you never stopped."

"You misunderstood. I was just thinking of happy things."

Rosamund Pike: ...

As they were talking, Max came back.

The three of them sat together to discuss the plot, with Da Tiantian acting as a mascot and trying her best to follow the conversation between the three.

Although there are many twists and turns in the plot of "Gone Girl", the content is actually not particularly complicated.

The protagonists Nick and Amy appear to be a model couple, but their relationship has actually been in crisis for a long time.

Amy is smart, capable, and dazzling, but she has a strong desire for control. Due to her parents' high expectations of her when she was a child, she attaches great importance to her "perfect" life and is determined to create a perfect life image no matter what.

At the same time, she has an almost paranoid desire to control her partner.

Amy once slandered her boyfriend for being a rapist because he broke up with her, causing him to become socially destitute and lose his job.

Nick is a university teacher and a writer. On the surface, he is knowledgeable and profound, but in fact, he is sentimental and promiscuous. He cheats on his wife, especially after the economic crisis. He has completely fallen into a state of debauchery. He relies on his wife's income to maintain a decent life, but is unwilling to assume corresponding responsibilities.

Finally one day, when Amy realized that she could not shape Nick into exactly what she wanted, and her life could no longer remain "perfect".

She couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to give Nick a surprise.

A surprise that left Nick with “eternal damnation”.

She forged a diary, a "crime scene", various signs that she was pregnant but had a miscarriage because Nick did not fulfill his responsibilities, her own "disappearance (death)", and the large insurance policy she bought for Nick in advance, and successfully portrayed her husband as a "scammer who hoped to get a large amount of insurance compensation through insurance after killing his wife."

As for myself, I took some money and went out to live a carefree life.

At the same time, Nick was caught off guard by Amy's series of punches.

But at the same time, he was not particularly confused or panic-stricken.

Because as the person standing at the center of the vortex, he knew clearly that he did not kill his wife Amy.

Everything that happened before my eyes was caused by that extremely controlling woman.

Therefore, the most important thing right now is to get rid of suspicion.

By the way, through the media, wash away the labels on yourself——

There is no better way to whiten yourself than to make a passionate confession on a TV show.

Especially since Nick is a magazine columnist, he is very familiar with the use of media.

The above is the general plot of the first half of the movie.

Max nodded.

From the excitement of cooking just now, I have recovered from the depression during filming the movie.

This is exactly the character of Nick in the first half of the movie.

After experiencing the economic crisis, his quality of life has declined, his life ambitions have been hit, he has lost motivation, feels drowsy, depressed, and has the image of a middle-aged white man who is giving up.

He has remained in this state most of the time since the filming began.

Except when filming the plot of "Police recreating 'Nick's murder' scene", he will become the "greedy, cruel, and even a little excited" appearance mentioned above.

Although there is a big difference between the before and after, to some extent it just fits his two roles in "Hannibal" and "The Hunt".

The former, as a murderer, takes "being a human being" as commonplace.

The latter, as the person who was framed, was in a situation where he was "unable to defend himself" from beginning to end.

"Max, do you find this kind of contrasting style of scenes too frequent? If so, you can slow down the shooting speed a bit."

"No, I'm fine."

Max's lips curled up into an icy smile.

When the smile disappeared, he returned to his normal dull state.

"What about you? Chunhua, I want you to maintain that sharp sense like a venomous snake throughout the whole process. You are a paranoid and control freak. Amy is actually even more psychopathic than Nick...

You were already in a good mood when you laughed at the blood plasma before, so keep up this style, especially when you schemed to kill the perverted ex-boyfriend who took you in, you should express this mood better. "

"No problem!" Pei Yuehua made an "OK" gesture.

……

Filming continues.

Time passed quickly, and it was already the end of December.

The filming process is nearly halfway through.

Zhou Mo finally finished writing the script for "Lost in America" ​​and gave a copy to Ning Hao, asking him to give some advice from a professional director's perspective.

I called De Niro again and told him about the plan for Lost in America.

Ask if you are interested in coming.

De Niro did not agree immediately, but after hearing the story, he was indeed interested. After listening to Zhou Mo introduce several actors, he patted his chest and said that he would give him a surprise later.

Zhou Mo didn't understand what was going on and just thought it was a joke.

Finally, at the end of December.

One day, Zhou Mo had just finished filming when the phone rang and De Niro shouted into the phone.

"Zhou, we're going to the set soon. We've brought two people with you. We promise we won't let you down!"
