From Taoist Priest to Best Actor

Chapter 33

This is an anti-theft seal, I hope everyone supports the original version.

Although the film was not allowed to be shot on Harvard's campus,

Outsiders were allowed to enter and visit.

So Xie Yi still went in and walked around the world's famous university.

“ok,

Director Robert Lukatic looked at the screen in front of him and shouted excitedly.

This scene was simply too beautiful. A talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven.

He felt that the best thing he did was to put Reese Witherspoon and Alan Rodriguez in the same scene.

He felt that no matter who it was, no one could resist the superposition of this chemical reaction. Just like light and dust, there was no better match than this!

"Reese, Allen, both of you acted so well."

The two of you acted really well! "Robert Lukatic couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart as he praised.

Xie Yi and Reese Witherspoon looked at each other and smiled.

As long as the director was satisfied, it was fine.

Today was Xie Yi's first scene on the set of "Pretty Woman at the Lawyer". It was the scene where Accentor and the female lead, Ai Er, met for the first time. Accentor enlightened the female lead and gave her some tips about class.

It had to be said that Reese Witherspoon was an actress with good acting skills. She could handle even the funniest scenes. Moreover, due to her beautiful appearance and cheerful personality, her popularity was very good.

She was also very popular in the crew. Even Xie Yi, who had a cold personality and was not good at socializing, had a good relationship with her.

In short, she was the happiest person on the set.

Moreover, because it was a romantic comedy film, the atmosphere was very relaxed.

It was different from the tiredness of the filming of "Lord of the Rings" and the enthusiasm and clamor of the filming of "The Fast and the Furious".

Xie Yi felt that the situation on the set of "Charming Lawyer" was very relaxed.

However, no matter how much Xie Yi liked the relaxed and happy atmosphere on the set of "Charming Lawyer",

He still managed to finish filming before Christmas.

After all, "Beauty at the Lawyer" was a movie with only the female lead. Even the male lead played by Xie Yi was just a supporting character. It wouldn't take much time to finish filming.

After filming "Legally Blonde", Xie Yi originally wanted to return to New York again. After all, he was in New York when he first came to this world, and Boston was not far from New York.

However, a phone call from Peter Jackson dispelled Xie Yi's idea.

Peter Jackson told Xie Yi that all the filming for "The Lord of the Rings" had been completed, but they still had to film some scenes and do some post-production in the studio in New Zealand. Naturally, Xie Yi was also involved.

Therefore, Xie Yi didn't have time to tour the oldest and most culturally valuable city in the history of the United States after "Legally Blonde" ended before he was summoned back to New Zealand by Peter Jackson.

"Hey, Allen, I haven't seen you for half a year. You're still so radiant!" Peter saw Xie Yi come in and put down his work and went up to hug him.

"Thank you, Peter, you're still full of energy. Are we going to finish the post-production work here?"

Xie Yi looked at the busy crew and asked curiously after he left Peter's warm embrace.

"Yes, Vita's special effects technology is slightly inferior to Hollywood's." The Lord of the Rings "can only be presented perfectly here," Peter heard Xie Yi talk about the production of "The Lord of the Rings" and sighed.

"By the way, I heard that you took on two more movies after you returned to Los Angeles. How was it?" Peter suddenly remembered the news he heard before and teased Xie Yi.

"It's alright. The people in the crew are all very nice and the filming went very smoothly." Xie Yi smiled.

"That's good. By the way, why didn't your agent come with you?"

Peter asked casually. He only asked because he saw that Xie Yi came to New Zealand alone.

After all, Xie Yi didn't have an agent when he first entered Hollywood, but now Xie Yi has made three movies. Although they haven't been released yet, it's not to the extent that he doesn't even have an agent.

"I don't have an agent yet." Hearing Peter's words, Xie Yi was taken aback for a moment and replied.

But when it comes to this matter, Xie Yi couldn't help but frown. It is obvious how important a good agent is. Now that his movies haven't been released yet, naturally, there are not many trivial things. Even if there are some troublesome things, the system will remind him. It's just that the system doesn't have a physical body after all, so it can't help him more, so finding an agent must be put on his agenda.

After all, "The Fast and the Furious" and "Pretty Woman at the Lawyer" will be released in June and July, and then "The Lord of the Rings" will be released in December. No matter how you look at it, next year will be an extremely busy year. He must find a professional to help him.

"Not yet!"

Peter just asked when he saw Xie Yi alone, but he didn't expect that Xie Yi hasn't found an agent yet.

"Then how did you get the contracts for your previous movies?" Peter looked at Xie Yi in surprise.

"Don't tell me it's all by yourself?" Peter thought of this possibility and asked Xie Yi.

Seeing Peter's surprised look, Xie Yi nodded a little embarrassedly.

Seeing Xie Yi nod, Peter shook his head and said earnestly, "I really don't know if you are lucky or unlucky. Those crew must have seen that you are young and don't have an agent, so they lowered your salary. But you are still a newcomer. It's not a big deal to suffer a loss in this regard, but you have to hurry up and find an agent in the future!"

"I know, Peter, I will find an agent as soon as I return from New Zealand!" Xie Yi knew that Peter's words were for his own good, so he naturally replied.

"Well, you just arrived today, and there is nothing for you to do here today. I will let Will take you to the hotel first, and we will start shooting tomorrow." Peter nodded after listening to Xie Yi's words.

"Okay, then I will go back to the hotel first."

Xie Yi did not stand on ceremony with Peter. He let Will, who was Peter's assistant, bring him back to the hotel rented by the crew in Wellington.

The post-production of "The Lord of the Rings" was done by Richard Taylor's Vita company in Wellington, New Zealand. Of course, Peter was also one of the founders of Vita.

Therefore, it could be said that it was mutually beneficial for Vita to produce "The Lord of the Rings". Vita had to design and create all the visual effects and makeup stunts for "The Lord of the Rings". They also had to help the crew create realistic Narnian creatures and combat equipment, such as weapons and armor, etc.

The crew of "The Lord of the Rings" also had to pay Vita a lot of money for the special effects. It must be known that the production cost of "The Lord of the Rings" accounted for a large portion of the investment. It had to be said that Vita had really made a lot of money by taking on such a big deal. Moreover, after "The Lord of the Rings" was released, it would be a wave of advertising for Vita.

The next day, in the studio of "The Lord of the Rings".

"Is this really Allen's first time using wires?" Viggo Mortensen stroked his chin and asked Peter Jackson next to him in surprise.

"It should be!"

Peter Jackson said with some uncertainty as he looked at Xie Yi, who was flying in front of the green screen in an incomparably comfortable manner.

As far as he knew, Xie Yi's previous two films did not require such high-altitude stunts like pressure!

"Wow, Allen is really a talented little guy!" Ian McClane had unknowingly walked up to them and praised Xie Yi.

Today's filming was mainly about Legolas fighting the mammoth on the Pelennor Fields. However, the mammoth did not exist in the real world, so this part of the content could only be completed with the help of the green screen special effects. Needless to say, the wire was indispensable.

However, Xie Yi's performance obviously surprised many people because it did not look like it was his first time using wires.

Most people would not even be able to grasp the most basic balance when using wires for the first time, let alone film. However, Xie Yi was different. After a short period of adaptation, Xie Yi quickly mastered the technique of using wires.

To be honest, if one ignored the wire rope tied to Xie Yi, and just looked at Xie Yi's movements and expressions, anyone would think that Xie Yi might really be The Elven Prince who knew magic. Xie Yi's movements were simply too nimble, and there was not a trace of discomfort on his face.

It was as if there was really a mammoth under his feet, and he needed to defeat it.

It had to be said that Xie Yi, who was dressed as an elf hanging from the wire, looked extremely elegant when he drew his bow and shot an arrow. It was as if he was glowing, attracting everyone's attention.

"That's why I don't even know if your appearance is good or bad for you!

For commercial films, your appearance is absolutely successful, but for literary films, it may be difficult for you to gain the favor of the group of picky judges. "

Arthur frowned when he thought of this. When he first saw Xie Yi, he knew that Xie Yi's appearance was unique. However, an overly handsome appearance was sometimes not a good thing for an actor. On the contrary, it made it easier for people to mistake Xie Yi for a flower vase.

"So, you mean … you want me to take more literary films?" Xie Yi understood the concern in Arthur's words and asked.

"Of course, I don't want you to take more literary films in the future. After all, I remember that you have always emphasized to make the audience like you." Arthur heard Xie Yi's words and could not help but laugh and tease him.

To be honest, he had never seen someone as strange as Xie Yi. As an actor, he did not care about the highest award in the film industry, the Oscars, which could show off his acting skills. As a young man, he preferred to stay at home all day and live like an old man.
