Chapter 248 Asking for Leave (Earth)
Master Xing was extremely harsh in filming, and even had a falling out with the entire Xiangjiang martial arts masters because of this.

When he was filming "Kung Fu", the Wu Zhi was Boss Hong first, and then Yuan Heping. Master Xing's attitude completely changed. Master Yuan had a very good temper and was made dumbfounded by Master Xing.

This is true for Boss Hong, let alone for ordinary actors, so Master Xing has almost no friends in Xiangjiang entertainment circle.

Now that Master Xing became a producer, there was another director added to the abused list.

The current director, Anthony Staci, belongs to the second-rate in Hollywood. His resume includes titles such as "The Jungle Attack" and "The Boxtrolls" that few people in mainland China have heard of. Master Xing's harsh attitude towards movies, all Hong Kong film and television practitioners who are familiar with Master Xing's studio, can see that compared with the past, there is one more scolded person on the set, that is, the director.

Master Xing also scolded Truman.

But Truman was scolded very well.

Director Tang told Mr. Xing that the cooperation between Trumen and the Trumen is very high, which is a rare treasure for any director. Mr. Xing only heard about it, but he still didn't believe it. Now that he has done it himself, he knows what Director Tang said is true. Not only Feixu, but also failed to describe all the advantages and benefits of Truman.

"Truman, you didn't move enough just now. The Monkey King is still a wild monkey at this time. He must be arrogant and even bloodthirsty. You should be more wild."

"No, the scale is a bit big, please accept it."

"This point is just right, but I think you can try it before collecting it."

"Okay, keep this state, come to the next one."

As a producer, Master Xing should not interfere with too many studio operations, but he can't be idle, and the feeling of directing Truman is so smooth, Master Xing feels like he is playing with a vernier caliper, give more status, and give less A little emotion is always accurate. Sometimes Master Xing doesn't express himself clearly, but as long as he speaks out, Truman will do it perfectly.

It is a pity that this is a cartoon and not a live-action film. Even if the motion capture technology is very advanced, it is impossible to express all the micro-expressions. It is a pity that Truman, the next part must find him...

After realizing that he had this idea, Master Xing also understood Director Tang's mentality when he recommended Truman.

After today's filming ended, Master Xing didn't get into the car and leave the set as soon as possible, but asked Truman for supper.

This is a rare sight. Anyone who is familiar with Xing Ye knows that as he gets older, Xing Ye's personality becomes more and more withdrawn. The workaholic in his youth seems to have become a social barrier now.

As long as you look at Master Xing on non-set occasions, you will find that he looks at everyone with a respectful and alienated rejection.

However, during this period of time, Master Xing's appreciation for Truman was also seen by the people on the set. It is also true that the "Banana Daily" said "Master Xing's new favorite" in a yin and yang manner.

Truman followed Master Xing to a miscellaneous noodle stall outside Jiangjunqi Film and Television Base. It seemed that Master Xing was a regular customer. The owner of the noodle stall greeted him with a smile, but the diners who were still sitting there did not express any surprise at the arrival of Master Xing And surprised, not to mention taking a picture with the phone.

Hong Kong, a small place, the living habits of local stars are very lifelike, and they are not surprised to meet one or two stars when they go out. Back then, Liu Qingyun was caught by the TV station for an interview, and the reporter did not recognize the actor. I am an ordinary citizen, which shows that this situation is very common.

There are already many celebrities coming and going in and out of Jiangjunqi Film and Television Base, so the surrounding residents are even more familiar with it.

"The owner of this noodle shop has been making chop suey noodles for decades. The handmade fish balls are very fresh, the pork blood freshly made Q bombs, and there is not a single tendon in the radish. It is top-notch!"

Master Xing and Truman praised the bowl of noodles, and the noodle stall owner came over with a smile, saying that he had to take care of Master Xing.

Truman found it very interesting to see the atmosphere of the market in front of him.

"I asked you to eat noodles, and I want to talk to you about something." Master Xing said while eating noodles, "I want to make a documentary film based on real people. Are you interested in playing the leading role?"

If you are an ordinary person, you will definitely ask when to shoot, who to shoot, is the script written, and what is the salary, but Truman just nodded: "Okay~"

"I promised so happily, and I'm not afraid that I'll sell you." Staring at Truman's crystal-like bright but transparent smile, thinking about Director Tang's introduction and the information recently reported by the company, he can almost conclude that Truman It's 50% idiot and 100% genius.

The reason why it adds up to more than 100%, reaching 150%, is because the part of Truman's genius is completely enough to cover up his idiocy.

"But we still have to wait for the ban on you to be lifted." Master Xing said, "Director Tang has asked me for leave these two days to take you to the Xiangjiang Roadshow of "Legend". He has more information than I do. It seems that you will soon It can be lifted."

"Well, I still have to go to the Venice Film Festival." Truman nodded, "If the filming of "The Monkey King" cannot be completed by the end of July, I still have to ask for leave."

The shooting time of "The Monkey King" should be about 1 month. Truman is actually a stuntman, so the scene is very simple, and there is no need to worry about makeup and hair styling. In theory, 1 month is enough to complete. Venice Film Festival.

But the fact is that under Master Xing's 'excellence', it is now mid-to-late July, and the shooting progress is still a little half behind. It is estimated that it will not be able to be completed normally by the end of July.

"Venice Film Festival~" Master Xing sighed, his number of international awards is zero, in fact, before filming "Shaolin Soccer", he did not get many awards in Xiangjiang, as the annual box office of Xiangjiang films in the last century The champion, his accolades and his achievements seem very misplaced.

The reason is that Master Xing has a unique 'nonsensical' performance style. There is no one before, and there will be no one in the future. There is no second Master Xing in the world. Facing these, facing those awards and honors, if you say you have no regrets, then of course you are not. possible.

But Master Xing no longer has the time and opportunity to reorganize his acting life and path, and make them move closer to the academic direction. Of course, even if he had the opportunity, he might not do that.

"If you win the award, I can put 'Venice Film Festival Best Actor' under your name on the film." Master Xing said with a smile.

Truman smiled: "Yes, I won't charge you extra money, and I won't think you are stingy, this is what you should do."

The smile on Master Xing’s face was smothered. His reputation of being stingy has indeed spread throughout the Hong Kong film and television circle. When filming the stadium scene of "Shaolin Soccer", in order to save the lunch money for the group performers in the auditorium, he advertised to invite the audience to watch He was filming and said that he could take a group photo, but as a result, followers gathered and saved a lot of money.

If it was someone else, Master Xing would think it was ironic, but if it was Truman, Master Xing patted Truman on the shoulder, sighed, and pointed to the reporters squatting over there to shoot.

"During the road show tomorrow, don't talk to the reporters. Xiangjiang reporters are hard to deal with, and you can't handle them."
