Chapter 427 A Man Is a Teenager Until He Dies (Earth)

Truman's play, which is tentatively designated as "Hero", certainly has the story of the Air Force.

Since the original cost of each episode was only 1000 million to 2000 million US dollars, it is naturally impossible to use a large number of aircraft for live shooting like "Top Gun". Now the Six Princesses have coordinated an aviation base as the shooting location. There is no shortage of eight masters to ten masters, but there is no such level of black silk, but they can be coordinated.

Looking at the site information from Lu Linlang, Truman was a little impatient. Although he was always very active in filming, it was indeed rare for him to be so active.

However, there are still some problems that need to be solved. The script problem is not a problem. Netflix has never interfered with the director, but the casting problem still needs to be solved.

The project director of Netflix who is in charge of controlling the "Hero (Tentative Name)" project suggested that in order to cater to the North American and European markets, there must be whites and blacks, actors from various European countries and American actors in the show. As for gender inclusiveness, because there are Chu The existence of the "treasure of the town group" called the door saved a lot of trouble.

The director said: "CH, we need some white and black actors. Although the cost of "Hero" is limited, racial diversity must still be considered, otherwise the audience will lack a sense of substitution and affect the ratings."

"Well, yes, yes." Truman repeatedly agreed.

It was probably the first time for the director to meet such a talkative director, and this director was rumored to have the weirdest temper in Hollywood, which made him think that he was the chosen one.

But in fact, Truman didn't even know what he promised.

Truman said to Feng Zikai: "For the sake of ratings, Netflix asked us to find a black and white actor."

As for what to do?
Truman recalled for a moment, and said, "He didn't say anything specifically, maybe he should just give it a role."

……

Feng Zikai is in China at the moment, and he is familiar with the domestic performing arts industry. This is not like Hollywood, so after Truman decided to start filming "Hero" in mainland China, after a few phone calls, a prototype of a crew was formed. It's well built.

Now, Feng Zikai asked his assistant director of casting: "The crew needs some black and white actors."

"Fengtou, foreigners are precious, at least 800 a day, and those who can speak lines are even more expensive."

"Money is fine. As for the lines... it doesn't matter if you have it or not."

……

The assistant casting director asked the group leader, "Help me find two black men and white men, 400 a day."

The group leader said: "It's too cheap, it's hard to find, is it okay if you don't speak foreign languages?"

Casting director: "There are foreigners who can't speak foreign languages?"

The leader of the group: "Of course, Northeast dialect is tricky, and I don't know a word of foreign language, and I can't even pass the fourth level exam."

The casting director gave the group leader a 'thumbs up' emoji on the chat software.

……

After solving the corner selection problem.

Truman returned to the mainland in early May.

Netflix has long released the news that Truman will cooperate with him to create war-themed dramas. Hollywood is also paying attention to Truman's movements. After all, the box office miracle created by "Blood on the Eagle Peak" is in the ascendant. "New subject matter, every media is very interested.

THR commented, "Netflix has recruited another general, and Mark Randolph's 'collection of famous directors' has been satisfied again. I just don't know if Netflix can overcome CH's bad luck. After all, all CH's movies Bad luck."

The "bad luck" of Truman's film has become a legendary story in Hollywood. There are 3 films in 4 years, and each film can make another film during the filming process, and the film company that cooperated with him, Whether it's Disney or Time Warner or Cullen House, it can't be said that success and happiness are even accompanied by regret.

Of course, the cooperation with Time Warner was very successful. At least "Blood on the Vulture" brought a lot of commercial income. Although it failed at the Oscars, money is the best comfort.

But if you ask Time Warner CEO John Stankey if he would rather never have worked with Truman, John Stankey's answer may be silence.

For the CEO, whose career has sunk because of the email scandal, he would be happy to turn the clock back to a day without Truman.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Trumanke film manufacturers.

Amidst the turmoil, Truman quietly left Hollywood and went to the mainland.

No media caught his shadow, only some passengers noticed the low-key and silent Truman and his little assistant, the two were waiting in the VIP lounge like ordinary passengers, Truman was wearing a hat, and his figure was thin—— After filming "The Bloody Battle on the Eagle Peak", Truman has gained weight from 120 pounds to 138 pounds. He is stronger, but he still looks very thin when he wears clothes.

A fan tried to ask Truman for an autograph, and when they approached, they noticed that Truman was playing with his little assistant on a plane, the kind of toy played by children, and Truman was holding the plane with great interest and skating in the air go.

This action seems to prove the news that "Truman's mental state is very worrying" reported in many American media, because mature human men over 20 years old should not make such actions.

Someone recorded this scene as a video and posted it on TikTok, which attracted a lot of attention and forwarding. Someone combined this video with the video of Xiao Lizi playing with a water gun with a big belly, and wrote in the content:

"CH will never become a greasy middle-aged man. He is running on another 'young and naive' road. I hope we will have a chance to see his wonderful movies before he completely loses his IQ."

This video is sympathetic. Many people like Truman's movies and the characters he played, and are also worried about Truman's declining intellectual and spiritual state-of course they have not seen Truman's current situation with their own eyes. It's just that all the media say so, so they naturally think so.

However, there are many malicious comments in the comments, because Truman's Chinese identity is bound to be a lot of malicious and attacks.

"Mainlanders don't have high IQs!"

"They make movies that stink of rednecks!"

"He was an imbecile before he became psychotic!"

Then a large number of reprints became even more stinking, as if Truman had already suffered from an incurable terminal illness, and even many physical news newspapers or magazines reported that "Famous Chinese director and actor Truman suffers from mental illness, and his IQ has deteriorated to eight years old!" ".

This wave of news came suddenly, and the starting point was just a video shot casually in the terminal hall. The reason was that after "Blood on the Vulture Peak" once again achieved a box office miracle, the American press wanted Truman. The video is so curious, it just satisfies the empty hearts of them and the viewers.

Only one day later, this news was spread on major news websites in the mainland, and even the people in the mainland knew that Truman's mind and spirit were gone.

Trying to shake off what was about to turn into a scandal, Truman Studios released another video on METE, in which Truman soars through the skies in a fighter jet.

The accompanying text said: "A man is a boy until he dies. The difference is that this 'boy' can really drive his toy across the sea in the blue sky!"
