They were all so into the drama!

At this time, the filming set was decorated in the style of a bank on Hong Kong Island.

In such a scene, the masked gangsters with guns, the sound of sirens outside, and the trembling hostages lying on the ground are obviously the scene of a bank robbery.

But at this time, the atmosphere inside the bank was strangely harmonious.

The thief leader "Chen" played by Huo Mingjie wears a mask. Although his appearance cannot be seen clearly, the eyes exposed are still bright and deep.

The companion beside him was supporting a trembling old lady in her eighties with white hair.

"Chen" heard that today was the old lady's birthday. At this time, he was holding a small cake that he found from nowhere in his left hand, and sincerely wished the old lady a happy birthday.

Holding the gun in his right hand, he casually glanced at the group of hostages lying on the ground with the muzzle. The voices of these hostages singing happy birthday suddenly became three points louder.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

The old lady tremblingly blew out the candle, and then "Chen" comforted her with a low and soft voice:

"I'm sorry for this unpleasant birthday, old lady. I'll send you out now, and you should still have time to buy a real cake!"

After that, he personally helped the old lady to the door of the bank and sent her out safely amid the stunned eyes of all the hostages.

When leaving, he bowed slightly and expressed his apology to the old lady again.

Such a gentle gentleman's attitude is not at all like that of a robber.

At this time, almost everyone inside and outside the bank was confused.

But it is this "mild" attitude that gives everyone reassurance.

The officers surrounding the area felt that the attitude of the robbers inside had softened, and it seemed that they could negotiate to avoid casualties.

The hostages inside felt relieved at this time, feeling that since the gangsters did not want to harm anyone, there was no need to resist...

At this time, "Chen" played by Huo Mingjie looked around, well aware of the changes in everyone's minds, and a smile appeared between his eyebrows.

His facial features were originally obscured by the mask, but just a smile in the corner of his eyes made people feel inexplicably stunning!

"Chen" turned around and left the hall, heading towards the vault inside the bank.

Except for the people in the team, everyone else was placed in the hall. The surrounding cameras were also blocked openly.

Without any scruples, he reached out and took off the mask on his head.

On the camera screen, Huo Mingjie's handsome and perfect facial features suddenly appeared. Even with the foreshadowing of the stunning smile before, it still gave people a feeling of cardiac arrest and stagnant breathing.

Although he was clearly playing the role of a gangster, "Chen", who had taken off his mask, was wearing a shirt and tie and looked polite.

His handsome and perfect facial features, as well as his calm and gentle temperament, are in sharp contrast to his current identity!

Walking into the bank's vault, most of the safes containing valuables had been broken open.

Jewelry, gold bars, bearer bonds…

These items of astonishing value were piled randomly next to each other. One of the gang members was packing them frantically, and then threw them directly down the tunnel in the vault.

"Chen" walked into the vault and glanced at the time, then said calmly:

"Three minutes left!"

"Boss, there are still so many safes that have not been opened!"

Upon hearing this, "Chen" played by Huo Mingjie took action without saying a word.

Compared with his companions who used the mechanical devices they brought in to violently break the lock, "Chen" took action directly and started tinkering with the lockpicking tools he brought with him.

The bank claims to be the most stringent, and the safe that cannot be opened without a key is as if it is not locked in his hands.

With one poke and a turn, it opened in just a few breaths, even faster than the companions around him who used mechanical tools to violently break the lock!

Seeing that the agreed time for retreat had arrived, "Chen" played by Huo Mingjie remained extremely calm and restrained, and directly stopped and ordered:

"withdraw!"

The companions glanced greedily at the remaining unopened safe, and finally obeyed "Chen"'s order and reluctantly evacuated from the tunnel.

Before leaving, he used a cabinet to block the dug tunnel entrance, trying to delay time.

And less than ten minutes after they evacuated, officials broke in through the door.

The officer leading the team was very experienced. He noticed the masonry debris on the ground at a glance and found the tunnel entrance.

Looking at the entrance of the tunnel leading to the sewer, the officer leading the team sneered, picked up the walkie-talkie and began to question the subordinates he had sent out in advance to block the water outlet.

But over the intercom, the subordinate guarding the sewer outlet sent back the answer that no trace of the gangster had been found.

The expression on the leader's face suddenly changed...

The literal translation of the name of this movie is "League of Thieves", so naturally there is a gang of thieves in it, and the robbery is so unprofessional.

The previous robbery was just to attract attention.

The real method is actually theft!

Digging a tunnel to steal a bank feels a bit like the mainland movie "Hot Pot Hero" a few years later.

But in fact, the prototype this time came from the Rio de Janeiro bank robbery in 2006.

An amateur team composed of freelance artists, repairmen, and thieves planned a perfect case.

On the surface, they pretended to rob, but in fact, they dug a tunnel directly into the bank. While holding hostages to attract outside attention, the team kept moving valuables in the bank.

Then, they took advantage of the convenience of the sewers and drilled out from a sewer well somewhere in the city, successfully escaping the police search...

The real prototype, if one of the members of the team had not been reported by his wife for cheating, this amateur team would not have been caught.

By the way, the robber himself later served as the screenwriter and wrote this story into a script for a movie!

Because toy guns were used throughout the process and no hostages were injured or killed.

In addition, no one could tell how much the valuables they took away were worth (factors such as balance of accounts and anonymous safes that were unclaimed), so the group of people were not sentenced heavily...

When Huo Mingjie came here this time, there were several screenwriters in the accompanying team. The script changes in this section were their credit!

Some stars bring screenwriters into the group to add drama to themselves and completely ignore the work itself.

Although Huo Mingjie's behavior is similar, the essence is still for the quality of the movie itself.

Compared with the low-class behavior of robbing a gold shop in the original version, the revised plot did not waste too many shots, but established the character image of "Chen".

Since the movie claims that the top thieves from China and South Korea are gathering to act, if one of the two sides is too low-class, it will still lower the status of both sides!

——

The rhythm of the scene just shot seems very tight. Only Huo Mingjie, as the well-deserved protagonist in the shot, seems so comfortable, and even has not made a single mistake.

Obviously just a thief, but the feeling of calmness and elegance is still too amazing.

Originally, there were people in South Korea who were not convinced that Huo Mingjie, a Chinese, was the protagonist of the movie.

But even if they were not convinced in their hearts, they could only shut up one by one after seeing Huo Mingjie's acting skills with their own eyes.

The background is not comparable, and the ability is also not comparable to others, so what else can you do except lie down and admit defeat?

Huo Mingjie never cares about what these people think. After all, even if he doesn't rely on acting skills, these people only dare to be dissatisfied in their hearts.

Compared to others, Cui Dongxun, as a director, felt obviously different!

In order to show the reality, the extras in this scene are all Chinese people found by the crew, not professional actors. Logically speaking, these extras are bound to have problems.

But in the shooting just now, the director could even sense the strong aura emanating from Huo Mingjie, which dominated the shooting process all the time.

Under the guidance of Huo Mingjie's aura, everyone in the shooting was completely substituted into the role.

It's not just a simple pressure, but a higher level of introduction into the play, so that all the actors present unconsciously follow his rhythm!

Hiss, Mr. Huo's acting skills are really terrifying...

And not only Huo Mingjie's acting skills, but his efficiency is beyond the expectations of the Korean side.

The scenes were originally scheduled for one day of shooting, but in the end, including the makeup preparation time and the reshoot of two shots, it only took half a day.

The filming of movies in Korea is still arranged quite tightly. Since half a day of time has been saved, it is unlikely that Huo Mingjie will be let go.

Someone from the Korean side came to discuss it, and after getting Huo Mingjie's consent, they decisively changed the scene and continued to shoot the next scenes!

Huo Mingjie's salary this time was really high, which was more than 40 million RMB. In China, only Cheng Long and Li Lianjie could beat him in this salary.

They spent so much money, and they even changed the script for Huo Mingjie, so he naturally had to concentrate on filming and would not complain.

Besides, it would be good to finish filming early.

I really couldn't stay in the Korean side for too long. After all, even the high-standard welcoming banquet was inseparable from the pickled vegetables meeting place. Huo Mingjie was afraid that he would be hungry and thin!

Huo Mingjie, who had already finished shooting today's scenes, packed up his things and followed the crew to move to the scene to continue shooting.

After all, it was the first time to see Huo Mingjie's shooting efficiency. The crew was not even prepared at first, and could only rehearse the scenes hastily during Huo Mingjie's lunch break, and then contact other actors to add temporary notices.

Before the afternoon shooting, Huo Mingjie had already done her makeup, and the co-star who was notified at the last minute came late.

Kim Tae-hee, who rushed over in time, saw Huo Mingjie sitting next to her ready for shooting as soon as she arrived at the crew.

With good upbringing and the rules of the Korean country, the girl walked up to Huo Mingjie and apologized first.

At the previous welcoming banquet, a group of SB company executives surrounded him to apologize. Anyway, they knew that "Mia Niyo" meant to apologize.

Huo Mingjie looked up at her and smiled and said:

"It's okay, the crew is still preparing. And the temporary change in the shooting plan should have caused you some trouble, no need to apologize."

Huo Mingjie didn't know the Korean language, and the girl opposite didn't know Mandarin, so the only way to communicate at this time was English.

At the previous welcoming banquet, someone mentioned that she was a top student from some university, so English should be no problem...

She just didn't expect that after hearing Huo Mingjie's extremely fluent and standard English, the girl's face suddenly froze, she pursed her lips, and then she held it in for a long time before she said a simple "thank you".

She had previously acted in a TV series from Bangzi Country and gave an English speech in it, so many people thought her English was good.

But in fact, what she learned was mute English, and she was even ridiculed by the public for her accent before...

Facing Huo Mingjie at this time, she could understand him, but she was too embarrassed to speak. There was a slight look of embarrassment on her face, and even her ears turned red.

I thought that since the two of them didn't understand each other, I was just going through the motions, but I didn't expect that Huo Mingjie actually planned to chat with her in English...

Huo Mingjie was a shrewd person, so when he saw her shut up and look slightly embarrassed on her face, he began to make some guesses.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably end the topic at this time because of language problems.

But previous experiences have taught Huo Mingjie that language is not a barrier to communication between people!

"Sit down and rest for a while. It may take a while for the crew to be ready for filming." Huo Mingjie pointed to the chair next to him and continued to speak in English.

Jin Taixi couldn't refuse directly. At this time, he was riding a tiger. He could only smile shyly, thank him in a low voice again, and then sat on the chair next to Huo Mingjie and waited.

At this time, Huo Mingjie looked at Kim Tae Hee, whose ears were red but still maintained a dignified expression. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but continue to ask:

"By the way, do you believe in God?"

Facing Huo Mingjie's fluent and standard English, the girl inevitably felt a little dwarfed by him, and even more embarrassed to speak.

So at this time, she could only temporarily add the settings of "taciturn" and "cherish words like gold" to herself, and nodded to Huo Mingjie to acknowledge it.

Seeing this, Huo Mingjie couldn't help but ask:

"I've read the script. Your character setting this time is that of a liar, which is very different from the rules you have to abide by."

"So I'm a little curious. Do you feel a little bit reluctant when playing this kind of role?"

Just like the one she believed in, there were no lies, no swearing, no intimate contact before marriage, and many other taboos.

What a coincidence, it's exactly the opposite of the role she played this time!

Her role in the movie is the person in charge of deception in the gang of thieves in Bangzi Country. In the script, she comes into contact with "Chen" played by Huo Mingjie for a period of time, and develops feelings and a relationship...

Huo Mingjie's question obviously couldn't be answered by nodding or shaking his head.

But this is a matter of faith and cannot be avoided.

Jin Taixi looked slightly serious, thinking about the words in his heart for a moment, then looked at Huo Mingjie and answered in as standard an accent as possible:

"I'm an actor. No matter what role I play, it's just work. It doesn't conflict with my beliefs, so I don't mind!"

Well, the accent is indeed not very good, but I can understand it.

When Huo Mingjie saw this, he smiled gently at her, nodded and said:

"I see."

Well, as long as you start talking, you can communicate normally from now on!
