This time the explosion cost more than 300,000 U.S. dollars and also caused another impact. Sophia Coppola was probably frightened. He called the next day and told Duke that she was sick and needed a few days. false.

Frankly speaking, Duke is not very satisfied with the effect of this shooting. Compared to the bomber in his previous life, the explosion images they made and shot are really nothing. The pyrotechnics and photography team signed by Lucasfilm. , Is indeed not a top player in this area.

However, Duke can't ask for more, after all, there are not many such top professionals in Hollywood.

In accordance with the pre-set shooting plan, after returning to the set, the crew switched to model shooting. For example, the nonsense and costly shots such as Bus Feiyue, Duke switched to model shooting, a realistic model created by Industrial Light and Magic. It will not affect the shooting effect too much.

Finally, most models inevitably embarked on the road to explosion. In the outdoor studio of Universal Studios, a 20-foot-long Boeing freighter model and a similarly scaled bus model were wiped out in the explosion.

The crew has also ushered in the best period since the start-up. In the first week of November, Duke even completed the two-week shooting task previously planned. This is not only related to the gradual maturity of the crew, but also to He always makes plans from the most difficult point of view.

Since the start of the crew, as the actual controller of the crew, Robin Grande is almost completely invisible. Like all excellent production managers, he has basically given the control of the set to Duke, watching only with his eyes. Everything that happened.

In fact, Duke knows very well that Robin Grande has seen all the films he has taken, and more than once, but has not made any comments so far, which shows that he is generally satisfied with the shots he has taken, and Associate director Ke Nei has also settled down a lot, probably because of Robin's secret warning.

Although it's not too obvious, it can't hide from the discerning person. Robin Grande is taking care of him.

Why did the other party do this? In Duke's thinking, it must be George Lucas's relationship. He has never considered it in a deeper direction, because all his thinking is how to make this movie.

However, in Hollywood, no one and everything will be smooth sailing.

"This is the shooting plan for this afternoon."

On the set, Sophia Coppola, who had returned to the crew, put a schedule on the table in front of Duke and said, "But the actor hasn't arrived yet. Isn't it time to take another shot?"

"He has been twenty minutes late."

All the scenes in the afternoon were related to Keanu Reeves. Uma Thurman and Dennis Hober, who had put on makeup, had already been waiting in the rest area of ​​the studio.

Looking at the watch, just as Duke was about to change the shooting plan, a noisy sound came from the entrance of the studio. Keanu Reeves, whistling, walked in staggeringly. The staff stepped forward to remind him to put on makeup, but he was pushed backhand by him and fell to the ground.

"Hey, kid!" Keanu Reeves's voice was high and hoarse, "Don't bother!"

Throwing down the schedule, Duke strode over, and before he got close to Keanu Reeves, he faintly smelled a faint smell of smoke, which was very familiar. Although he had not tried it himself, he I smelled it in middle school and university, and when you think about the absurd life of Keanu Reeves in the early nineties, the answer is very obvious.

"You are late, Reeves!"

Duke stretched out his hand and pulled up the bewildered staff on the ground.

"Just a few minutes!" Keanu Reeves waved his hand vigorously, "Just a few minutes!"

"Find a place to sober him."

Duke reminded the assistant who was following Keanu Reeves, who just wanted to pull him over, but was pushed away by Reeves.

"I want to film!"

Keanu Reeves, who was in excitement, was obviously a little confused, his voice getting higher and higher, "I want to film, understand? I want to film!"

He stumbled towards Duke. Before he got close, he swayed and swayed, hitting the'wall' with one head. The set wall was immediately knocked down, and he himself was tripped to the ground. Probably in a hurry to get up, he grabbed a rope that fixed the scenery wall and tried to borrow force. As a result, he directly pulled the scenery that was more than twenty feet long.

It’s normal for stars to **** big hemp. It’s not uncommon for Keanu Reeves to **** coca-alkali in Hollywood, but there are not many people who **** up and run wild on the crew!

Looking coldly at Keanu Reeves, who was shouting excitedly like a drunk, Duke said to Sophia behind him, "Call his agent, and call some security guards to come in and get him out. Throw it in the trash!"

"Please do not!"

Keanu Reeves took drugs, but his assistant did not. If this sort of thing broke out, how much would it affect the employer?

Turning around, Duke walked towards his resting place. The set was ruined. This afternoon's filming would definitely be a waste. His eyes swept over the actors such as Uma Thurman and Dennis Hober. These people No need to look at the show, looking at the already somewhat famous actor.

The crew would definitely not tell Duke that Keanu Reeves was thrown into the trash, and several people, together with the assistant, pressed him on a chair, probably the most exciting stage. After that, Reeves sat there with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

Sophia asked people to inquire, and quickly figured out the general situation.

"He had been to Johnny Depp's bar before he came." She said to Duke, who was sitting across from him. "That bar is a place where many young Hollywood actors have fun, Keanu Reeves, Johnny Depp, Revan Phoenix, a famous drug addict trio in Hollywood."

"They usually **** sea. Luo Yin has nothing to do with me!" Duke tapped the armrest of the chair lightly, his tone was a bit cold, "but he has ruined my entire afternoon shooting plan!"

Robin Grand, who did not come to the set today, rushed over first, and it didn’t take long for Keanu Reeves’ agent to also rush to the set.

In the set office, Duke and Robin were sitting close together. Keanu Reeves, who put on a cold towel on the opposite side, was a little awake, and his agent seemed to have a headache.

"I'm very sorry." The agent has said this several times.

"Mr. Reeves not only disrupted my filming plan." Duke's tone was very flat, the matter has already happened, and how to solve it is the most important thing. "The set that was pulled down by Mr. Reeves has already changed to varying degrees. The damage, these will delay the time of the crew."

"I'm sorry." The agent continued.

"I really hope that this sentence will come out of Mr. Reeves's mouth." Duke looked at Keanu Reeves who had regained consciousness. "It is him who should apologize most!"

"You..." Reeves suddenly raised his head and stared at Duke.

Duke looked at him with a sharper gaze, without any intention of giving in. Keanu Reeves is not a good man in the future, but a veritable bastard.

The agent spoke a few words in Reeves's ear. He gradually lowered his head, and then said to Duke, "I'm sorry!"

Nodding his head, Duke motioned to accept his apology. He didn't mean to be reluctant. The two sides would continue to work together. It would be no good for anyone to be completely dead.

Afterwards, Duke left the office, and what Robin Grande could blackmail from the other party next was no matter what happened to him.

Originally because of the time taken out by the shooting, all of them were affected by this incident. Although Keanu Reeves apologized, the relationship between the two was not so good, and Duke did not care. In fact, from the beginning of the preparation, he kept a distance from all the actors. Apart from work, he did not want to have too much intersection with them.

A week later, after filming the subway scene, the crew ended the studio shooting. Dennis Hopper became the first main actor to leave the crew. Robin Grande was very good at being a man, and specially included Universal Studios. A bar in, threw a small farewell party for him.

"Dennis, you did a great job!"

Raising the glass and touching Dennis Hopper, Duke drank the champagne in it, and touched the fist of this old drama, "I hope we still have a chance to cooperate in the future."

"I hope so." Dennis Hopper also drank his glass of wine.

Seeing what people say is one of the basic skills to survive in Hollywood.

Leaving the chaotic crowd, Duke returned to the quiet bar, ordered another glass of champagne, sat on the high chair, and sipped slowly.

He was under more pressure than everyone there, he couldn't relax at all, and he didn't feel like a carnival.

"You don't like lively?" A female voice with an Australian accent sounded nearby.

Duke shook his head slowly. In middle school and college, he also participated in carnival parties and did not reject that atmosphere.

"Not gregarious?" the voice continued, "Or do you want to maintain the director's authority?"

"Miss Watts, how much authority do you think I have on the crew?"

Turning his head, Duke looked at the petite girl who had just sat next to him. The other party's golden curly hair was draped smoothly on the shoulders in the ivory gown, and two small front teeth protruding slightly were revealed under the opened lips.

Naomi Watts smiled directly. She has worked hard in the circles of Japan and Australia for many years. Of course, she is not a rookie. It can be seen that the crew is because the work contract is maintained. The young director does not have much authority. Words.

"Call me Nami."

She stretched out her right hand to Duke, "Recognize Naomi Watts, Australian."

Shaking her hand, Duke said in the same way, "Duke Rosenberg, Los Angeles native."
