Ye Ming nodded and said: "Hollywood does have a complete set of shooting methods. They may spend a long time planning what they will shoot, but just because they have their own plans, when they start shooting, they will almost It won't change.

They all have a relatively good plan for what they will shoot today, what they will shoot tomorrow, and even what they will shoot ten days from now.

It’s not bad that you can learn something here. When the time comes, we in China will do the same thing.

Okay, let’s start with the exterior scenes. Everyone, please pay attention. Don’t leave the crew during the exterior scenes, because outside, some people in the United States are actually not very friendly to Chinese people or even to any outsiders. Moreover, the United States is not a very friendly country. In countries that ban private ownership of guns, everyone’s safety comes first. "

In fact, what Wang Baoqiang envied most was the police. In Wang Baoqiang's heart, a person who has learned Kung Fu for ten or twenty years is not as good as a pistol. One shot can kill a Kung Fu master.

Therefore, in Wang Baoqiang's opinion, policemen with guns are the most powerful beings and were his idol when he was a child.

Therefore, now he feels strange about private ownership of guns: "Can private individuals also own guns? What do the police do? Can stall owners hold guns against urban management?"

Ye Ming said with a smile: "Private ownership of guns is naturally allowed in the United States, because Article 7 of the Amendment to the U.S. Constitution clearly stipulates that private ownership of guns is sacrosanct. Therefore, it is very normal for American people to own guns privately now. of.

As for the urban management, well, there is no urban management in the United States. Even the police can be shot to death if they break into a private residential property without permission. Therefore, the police in the United States is actually a high-risk profession, and not many people are willing to be police officers. Moreover, American police officers are among the highest paid. "

Yes, risking your head to become a police officer. If the salary and benefits are not enough, then who would do this?

Wang Baoqiang said with some envy: "Private ownership of guns is something I have only dreamed of. Why can't private ownership of guns be allowed in our country?"

The envy of guns is almost every man’s dream. Everyone wants to own a gun of their own. Ye Ming said with a smile: "The national conditions are different. In fact, in our country, private ownership of guns was not impossible before. Each village had its own militia and its own guns. In the past, Gun control is relatively loose, but it has only become stricter in the past 20 years or so."

In the past, militiamen even said that it was okay to carry a gun home, and some would sleep with their guns in hand. Strict management has indeed been a thing in the past twenty years. Some township armed forces even have large-scale weapons such as machine guns.

It is not impossible for the security department of a large state-owned enterprise factory to have submachine guns, machine guns and the like.

Ma Su also said with some envy: "Can we play with guns in the United States?"

Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "If you have time, find someone to take you to the gun club. You can play there. In fact, in our crew, there are no less than thirty people with guns now."

Hearing that there were about fifty people in his crew, and it turned out that there were more than thirty people with guns, Ma Su felt very curious, widened his eyes and looked around and said: "Who, who, who is carrying a gun. "

Ye Ming looked at the old Andre who came over with a smile, and said hello: "Tony, my translator is very curious. She thinks it is interesting to bring a gun privately. Can he appreciate the gun you are bringing? ?”

Tony, that's what people who are familiar with old Andre call him. These days, old Andre has obviously become familiar with Ye Ming. He brought Ye Ming's pancake rolls with green onions to director Spielberg to eat. No one on the crew knew about this.

Old Andre was not shy at all, and directly took out a pistol from the holster on his back: "Little girl, what's so curious about pistols? These things are as common as bread in the United States. Even if Even if you are a beggar, you must have a gun to defend yourself, otherwise you will be killed sooner or later."

It’s hard to say whether handguns are as common as bread in the United States. It may be an exaggeration. But it is true that a beggar has a handgun. Especially in big cities, if a beggar says he doesn’t even have a handgun, it is really possible. Killed by someone.

This is the law of survival in the United States. Don't think that no one bullies beggars. Those hooligans bully beggars without mercy at all. Ma Su curiously took over the dark and shiny pistol, which seemed to exude the light of death.

Old Andre said proudly: "The little girl is pretty good, Beretta 92S. All American soldiers are equipped with the same pistols. It can be said that from the east coast to Hai'an, almost everyone in every building in the United States is useful." This kind of pistol has a 9mm caliber and a muzzle velocity of 390 meters per second. It is really a weapon for self-defense."

Wang Baoqiang wanted to take it from Ma Su's hand to see this magical pistol, but Ma Su firmly refused, pointed the pistol at Wang Baoqiang and said: "Don't move."

This incident really scared Wang Baoqiang to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat, and he immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Ye Ming immediately took Ma Su's pistol and said: "Ma Su, let me tell you, in the United States, pointing a gun at a person, even if it is a joke, is very dangerous. Fortunately, Tony's pistol has the safety on. You can’t make this joke anymore.”

In the end, Wang Baoqiang and Li Yapeng also played with Old Andre's pistol as if looking at a giant panda, and both felt that it was indeed a good thing. After Old Andre put away the pistol, he said: "By the way, Ye Ming, how did you know that I was carrying a pistol?"

Although handguns are very common in the United States, not everyone carries them. For example, there were more than ten people in the crew who did not carry guns. Obviously, in the United States, not everyone likes to walk around with a gun.

Ye Ming smiled and said: "You have murderous intent. People who carry guns have murderous intent. I can tell at a glance who is carrying a pistol and who is not carrying a pistol. I know it all. Not counting the fifty-three of us in the crew, there were thirty-five with pistols and eighteen without."

Old Andre also didn't know whether this number was accurate. After all, carrying a gun by a private person was a very private matter in the United States. Most people would not easily ask others if they carried a gun.

Even if they have a good relationship, they won't ask this question lightly.

At this time, Ye Ming's words surprised Old Andre: "Really, you can really see how many people on the crew are carrying guns. Even the director doesn't know the specific number of people. You can know so much." Is it clear?"

Ye Ming said with great certainty: "There is not much difficulty in this. In China, there is a kind of physiognomy. You can tell whether a person has murderous intent and whether he is carrying a gun through his appearance. I don't believe it. If so, then you can ask the director to ask how many people bring guns to work."

Perhaps it was because what Ye Ming said was too decisive, so old Andre actually went to Spielberg to ask a question.

As a result, the crew sent out a very strange notice before departure, asking them to report how many people brought guns to work.

The reason given by the crew was to ensure everyone's safety and prevent the gun from going off.

What kind of nonsense is this? No one believes this reason. Anyway, if the safety on the gun is turned on, there will be no chance of danger.

But great directors have the weird temperament of great directors. In Hollywood, who knows what strange hobbies great directors have. Maybe Spielberg wants to know how many people in his crew carry guns?

Although this is a bit of an invasion of privacy, compared with the high wages of the crew, privacy is nothing. Anyway, Spielberg didn't mean to ask people to hand over their pistols. If this was the news, everyone would probably rebel.

The results came out quickly. Thirty-five came with pistols, and 17 came without any weapons. This is completely consistent with the number Ye Ming said.

Even directors Spielberg and Tom Cruise felt that such a thing was very incredible. Spielberg glanced at Andre Sr. and said, "Tony, tell the truth. Did you learn about this information and then collaborate with Ye Ming to perform this scene?"

Old Andre swore to the sky: "Director, I am the one who raised this issue. I will not dig a hole to bury myself in anyway. Besides, such personal issues will not be dealt with on the set unless it is your director himself." Order, who would take the initiative to say it, I don’t have that much face, even if I go to investigate, I will probably receive a lot of lawyers’ letters tomorrow telling me that I have violated their privacy.”

Tom Cruise said with a smile; "This thing is indeed very interesting. The magical East, the magical Ye Ming, I really don't know how much surprise they will bring me. The art of physiognomy? Is it true that China He has this ability."

They didn't know whether China had such ability, but Ye Ming did see how many people on the crew came to work with guns. This indeed brought great influence to Spielberg and Tom Cruise. Big surprise.

Starting to set off, after everything was ready, the crew set off to the location, a relatively shabby street in Hollywood. The crew there had already said hello and applied for a temporary closure of the street. At this point, Hollywood did is also quite good.

The city government is also very supportive of such a thing. Closing a street is not a big deal at all.

Although the street was temporarily closed, a lot of media came, because this time there was a big star like Tom Cruise, and he was the director of Spielberg. Therefore, even if he said "see you in Hollywood" Some residents who are accustomed to big scenes also joined in the fun to watch the filming of the movie.

Of course, what is indispensable is that reporters from the media arrived early and occupied a favorable position to take a good photo.

In fact, although the street was said to be closed by application. But that also means that no cars can pass by casually. Pedestrians can still pass by, but there is a requirement, that is, they cannot disturb the shooting. It is impossible for outsiders to be in the core shooting area.

Anyway, there were a lot of people watching this time. There was an old man in his seventies who seemed more irritable, which was somewhat different from the joyful mood of the people around him.

But because there are many people who want to see Tom Cruise, among American star-chasers, those young people are still quite enthusiastic. Therefore, the irritability of an old man has long been drowned in the crowd.

The crew arrived quickly. Today there was a scene opposite Ye Ming and Tom Cruise. Therefore, after he got off the car, he was also in the process of nervous preparation. This is a real chase, with Tom Cruise chasing Ye Ming. There are some action scenes, but they are not very intense. Some of the main scenes are completed with special effects shots.

After Tom Cruise put on makeup, he greeted Ye Ming and said, "Ye Ming, how are you? It's your first time on location. You have to carefully experience the enthusiasm of the residents of Hollywood."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "They are all here to see you. Don't involve me. These are your fans. Look, the cheering sounds are all for you."

Tom Cruise doesn't mean to be modest at all. In fact, he doesn't need to be modest. He nodded and said: "However, I believe that after watching this movie, you will have your own fans in Hollywood. It is a very high enjoyment to be able to see your fans cheering for you. You will think Any hard work you put in is worth it.”

Big stars also come out step by step. Even the Emperor Superstar came from a small role and suffered a lot.

Just like Tom Cruise said, watching your fans cheer, you will think that all the hardships you have endured are worth it.

Directors are the busiest at this time. If they are filming in a studio, it is usually arranged in advance, so they can just shoot directly according to the script. At this time, the director is usually worried about whether the actor's performance is on point. Other work has been arranged long ago.

However, on location, the director not only said that he should pay attention to the actor's appearance, but also sometimes the director had to deal with unexpected things outside the crew. Any unstable factors must be eliminated directly. Only under such circumstances can we officially start shooting. Now Spielberg wants to check all departments of the crew to ensure that everything is arranged properly. Only when this is the case, can he safely arrange to start filming. (To be continued)
