Universal Pictures Filming Base.

The filming site of the film "The Scorpion King".

"You can't kill me!"

"No one in this world can kill me! Why? Because I am in hell!"

"I am... the Scorpion King!!!"

The Scorpion King, played by Dwayne Johnson, looked down at all the opponents, arrogant and uninhibited domineering.

His burly figure just right, even if he doesn't have much acting skills, he restores the corner of the Scorpion King to a very high level.

"click~"

Filming ended with an order from director Chuck Russell.

"Director, do you need another one?"

Johnson, who has a burly appearance, is acting a little cute and humble at the moment, and the whole person forms a strong contrast and cuteness.

Director Chuck Russell waved his hand, looked at him with admiration, and said, "No, you performed very well in this episode. Johnson, you have to be more confident in the future, although you are not a professional actor. From your background, your acting skills are a little immature, but I believe you will be successful in Hollywood."

"Thank you Director, I will work harder in the future!" Johnson said quickly.

He is still so humble.

This not only made director Chuck Russell very useful, but also many members of the "Scorpion King" group, many people have a good impression of this humble young man.

"Everyone take a break and shoot the next picture in twenty minutes."

Director Russell shouted.

The assistant director, the leaders of the production team, the props team, and the set team all responded.

In Hollywood, the vast majority of directors are just tools for the crew.

You have to do what the producer tells you to do.

Especially the script!

In the industrialized model of Hollywood, before a film enters the shooting cycle, the script must be finalized after three revisions. Once the script is finalized, the director of the crew has no authority to make any changes. It is almost impossible to change the script during the shooting.

"Director, what's wrong?" Johnson asked suddenly.

"Uh?"

Hearing this, director Russell was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Before the script of "The Scorpion King" was finalized, I wanted to revise a few paragraphs, but they were all rejected. I believe that after my revision, our film will be Better yet, but...the result, you know."

what result?

Of course it is impossible to change the script!

Once the script is adapted, Universal Pictures, the producer, will pay an additional $1 million to $2 million for this.

Suddenly, Johnson said suddenly, "Director, are you sure that the script you revised will be better?"

"certainly!"

Director Russell blurted out.

As the director who once filmed "Greek in Disguise", he has a very strong self-confidence.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Johnson said, "What if, I said if, I could persuade Mr. James Jacks to agree to revise the script?"

"Can you?!" Russell looked at him in surprise.

Johnson nodded: "I can."

He answered firmly, but Russell still looked at him suspiciously.

Two words - do not believe.

This feeling of being questioned made Johnson a little uncomfortable.

......

Noon break.

Here comes James Jacks, producer of The Scorpion King.

"what?!"

Jakes was furious: "You suggest that I revise the script that has been finalized? You still think I will agree to you? What are you kidding me!"

Johnson: "..."

At this moment, Johnson was really confused.

In his impression, the producer James Jakes is a gentle person who always speaks like a spring breeze, and Jakes has always taken care of her, otherwise he, a non-professional actor, would not have become a "Scorpion King". "The hero of the movie.

Attitudes before and after...the difference is huge!

After Johnson was slightly stunned, he continued: "Mr. Jakes, I really think Director Russell's words are reasonable. The script he revised is indeed better than the original script, I think... "

"shut up!"

Before Johnson could speak, he was interrupted by the furious producer Jakes.

Moreover, at the moment, Jakes is surprisingly angry!

He is like a fully erupted volcano.

"who do you think You Are?!"

"The Scorpion King film was prepared for a full 5 months in the early stage. It took more than 2 months to finalize the script alone. Countless manpower and material resources were invested. Now you are persuading me to revise the script. Do you think it's possible?"

"Do you pay for the millions of dollars in damages before and after the script revision?"

"Remember, you are just an actor!"

"No, I was wrong, you're just a lucky guy."

"Do you think you would be the hero of "The Scorpion King" without me? Put me in your place, OK?"

Words like a machine gun shot out.

Producer Jakes' words stabbed Johnson's heart like a knife.

"..."

Johnson hesitated, his mouth moved, but he didn't dare to refute a word in the end.

At this moment, Johnson did not understand.

He didn't understand why the producer Jakes was so angry, even if it was because he proposed to revise the script, wouldn't he point at his nose like this?

Why?

Why is he so furious?

Is it really because I overstepped?

Johnson is a smart guy, he's thinking about everything right now.

In fact, the reason why producer Jakes is so angry is mainly because he was scolded by classmate Zhu Ke at the "Lord of the Rings" audition a few days ago.

Not only was he stunned, but he was completely ignored after that!

Jakes, who had nowhere to vent the fire in his heart, bumped into the atmosphere of Dwayne Johnson himself, of course he would not give a good face.

"Director Russell, did you ask Johnson to come to me to revise the script?" Jakes asked the director.

Hearing this, Russell immediately replied: "You misunderstood, how could I make such excessive demands. I am a senior director, and of course I know that once the script is finalized, there is absolutely no possibility of it being revised again."

Jakes nodded and said nothing.

However, he subconsciously glanced at Dwayne Johnson not far away, and there was a disgust in his eyes, um, the undisguised kind.

Johnson's heart jumped immediately.

After producer Jakes left, Johnson walked up to director Russell angrily and asked, "Director, why don't you tell the truth?!"

"Humph!"

Russell snorted coldly and said: "Are you asking me? Then, what is your identity to question me, are you a director, a producer, or an investor? If not, please Keep your mouth shut."

"you!"

When Johnson was annoyed, he felt for the first time how complex and fickle human nature was.

You must know that before, both the producer Jakes and the director Russell, including most of the whole crew, admired him very much.

But... now what?

desolate!

Endless sadness!

Johnson felt bad all over.

"Look at it, Hollywood is like this." Johnson's uncle Bach came over to comfort him.

Johnson nodded stiffly.

There was something called "regret" in his heart again.

Once upon a time, when he was in the film crew invested by Wald Pictures, although he was not the male lead or the second male lead, he stayed there quite well, at least not so much intrigue.

"Uncle, I really shouldn't have left..."

Johnson gritted his teeth.

Bach sighed and said: "I know, I know everything. But since you have chosen this path, there is no turning back, you can only keep going, even if the road ahead is full of thorns and Tough."

Soon, the break is over.

The film "Scorpion King" continues to shoot.

However, just after a few shots were taken, Johnson was severely scolded by the director.

"Shit!"

"Are you a brown bear? What are you doing stupidly?"

"Can you still shoot? If you can't shoot, get out of here as soon as possible! You idiot!"

""The first one is sent, there are votes to vote, dear~
