It is very troublesome to shoot movies and TV dramas in such public places. Not only do you have to go through various procedures, but you also need to ask the police to help block the road section. In the original history, they did not have this ability, so they had to hurry up and set up the camera to shoot as soon as possible. Take the shots you need before you find out, and then leave quickly.
It's different now. Tom and Jerry helped them complete the procedures familiarly. A few round-armed policemen came over and pulled up the isolation belt to help them control the venue. Jiang Wen and the others can perform with confidence. He and his wife walked out of the airport with yearning and amazed eyes, and an extra actor drove a taxi to accost them, and the two who could not understand English felt terrified.
Then Guo Yan's uncle and his wife appeared, these two actors Shen Long had found from Chinatown, they drove Feng Dayou's luxury car here to pick up Jiang Wen and his wife, and the scene ended.
However, the filming at the airport has not stopped yet. They still need to film the scene where they return from here and pick up their friends who just came to the United States. Shen Long prepared a car for them to change clothes and remake up, but it is much more convenient than when filming in China. .
Jiang Wen was also full of admiration when he came out, "This thing is amazing. When we went out on location, we used to hide in the van to change clothes and make up if the conditions were good. If the conditions were not good, we could only set up a tent to temporarily cover it. I’ll get one of these for the crew too.”
"It will be almost there in a few years!" Shen Long said with a smile, won't that big name bring its own car in the future? After taking a few shots, I hid in and took a rest for a while. I had to be invited by the director to come out again. What can I do between shootings? Sometimes the movement in the car is so loud that the whole crew can hear it, and I wake up the next day. As usual, everyone is not surprised.
After filming the scene at the airport, Jiang Wen got into his uncle's luxury car and drove through New York City. The feasting lights outside the window made people intoxicated, and Jiang Wen was soon immersed in it. When the car stopped, he was immediately splashed with cold water. Manhattan was in stark contrast to the slums in front of him. Only then did he realize that the prosperity outside the car window belonged to others, and he could only stay here.
Then the life of the couple in the basement, the troubles of finding a job, the joy of picking up broken electrical appliances from the garbage dump, the hard work for life, and the quarrel after the economic improvement...all happened in this small basement, and this environment is also It is the common starting point of countless Chinese who have just arrived in the United States, and these experiences are also memories shared by many people.
Shen Long and the rest of the crew would return to the manor villa on Long Island to rest after completing the daily shooting tasks. The comfortable rest environment and the considerate service of the manor servants allowed them to wash away their fatigue quickly, and wake up again. Immediately they were alive and kicking. This can be said to be the most comfortable shooting they have ever experienced.
Jiang Wen stubbornly stayed in the basement, filmed here during the day, and used it as a resting place at night. He even followed Wang Qiming's example and went to the garbage dump to find useful things to decorate the room. When they started arguing, he was awesome enough. Putting ordinary people aside, seeing those vicious homeless people, why don't they immediately give in?
He is not afraid. Whenever someone scolds him, he will scold him back unceremoniously in the English he has just learned. As soon as the other party makes a gesture of attack, he shows his fist first. Someone came to drive those homeless people away, or who knows if he can continue filming tomorrow.
It took more than a week to finish filming the scene in the basement. Next, it was time to go to the restaurant to shoot and wash the dishes. The original crew could only use the time after the restaurant closed at night due to the tight budget. Shen Long is different here. After paying a certain sum of money, the restaurant was contracted, and some extras were hired to play the guests, and then the filming started normally.
The shooting task in the morning was successfully completed, everyone sat at the dining table to eat and rest, Jiang Wen came to sit in front of Shen Long with a plate, "I just asked those extras,
It’s really the same as what was written in the article. They are all college students who graduated from good schools in China, but they can only serve dishes and wash dishes when they arrive in New York. Why? "
"Aren't there few people in our circle who try to go abroad? What role can they play when they arrive in the United States? Why don't they just focus on the prosperity of the United States, and make more money than domestic ones!" Shen Long shook his head. Talents will always develop more economically This is an objective law, and many foreigners will flock to China in the future.
This group of people is indeed a scarce talent in the country right now, but what they have learned in a foreign country is useless. This is a lose-lose situation for themselves and the country. The country loses talents, and they lose more. Good space to play and a brighter future.
But this is also the price that must be paid for opening up. Even if a hundred people go out and only one or two come back, as long as one or two people can bring advanced foreign experience, then these efforts are worthwhile and will make China better. With the development of China, the proportion of people who are willing to come back will inevitably increase, and then continue to drive China's development.
"I think their state is very awkward. Some of them have obtained green cards or even naturalized, but they are still hanging out in Chinatown. If you want to replace me, you must try to squeeze into Hollywood! Before, Ah Chun said 'I Not Chinese, not American' puzzled me, but now I see them, I understand." Jiang Wen said.
"They are now naturalized in the United States, and they are indeed not Chinese in a legal sense; but they have only obtained identity certificates. Spiritually, they have not fully integrated into the American environment. Those white people on the street Xiao Hei, when you see their skin color and appearance, you think they are Chinese, and it is difficult for them to be recognized by Americans. Maybe you can earn money to support yourself in the United States, and even live as well as Wang Qiming in the movie. But in the eyes of real Americans, they are still outsiders!"
"To the Chinese, they are already enviable Americans, but to the Americans, they are still Chinese, that's why Ah Chun said that!" A good actor is undoubtedly good at observing Jiang Wen is such an actor, and through a short period of contact, he has already grasped the mentality of these Chinese people in the United States.
"And they can't go back even if they want to. They are already outsiders to China. Even if they go back, their relatives and friends will not understand..." This is like those who have worked hard in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou in the future, and it will be difficult to return. The same as the young people who went to their hometown in a small county.
