From Taoist Priest to Best Actor
Chapter 9
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it. Allen, let's take a picture!" Liv Taylor turned around and suggested to Xie Yi.
Then, without waiting for Xie Yi to answer, she stood up and pulled a person who was about to walk by. "Can you take a picture for us?"
"Of course, beautiful lady."
The person who was pulled by Liv Taylor looked at Liv Taylor and then looked at Xie Yi. He smiled and replied with some understanding.
"Thank you so much, please wait a moment." Liv Taylor handed the camera in her hand to him and then ran to sit beside Xie Yi.
"Sir, madam, is it ready?" The person waved the camera and indicated to Xie Yi and Liv Taylor.
"Yes, let's start!" Liv glanced at Xie Yi and replied with a smile.
Then, when Xie Yi wasn't paying attention, she leaned over and kissed Xie Yi's cheek.
"Okay, great, it's perfect!" The person looked at the photo he just took and praised.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman, a talented man and a beautiful woman, it couldn't be more pleasing to the eye!
"Let me see," Liv Taylor felt Xie Yi's gaze on her was a little stunned, she couldn't help but stand up and escape.
Looking at the two people in the camera, it was indeed as the person just said, very perfect, very beautiful. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see the trace of astonishment in Xie Yi's eyes.
Liv Taylor took the camera and walked to Xie Yi. She smiled and said, "It's perfect, do you want to take a look?"
"Liv, you?"
Xie Yi was a little overwhelmed by the scene just now. In his consciousness, only when they became dao companions could they get close to each other.
To be honest, the moment when Liv Taylor suddenly kissed him, Xie Yi was a little stunned, and this stupor caused Xie Yi to not react.
Until Liv Taylor got up to get the camera, Xie Yi reacted, Liv actually kissed me?
To be honest, Xie Yi didn't understand the matter of feelings, his world was only about cultivation.
In his previous life, no one kissed him, or no one dared to kiss him. In addition, in his previous life, he was always addicted to cultivation and had no time to have dao companions. He also didn't have the patience to let another person disturb his life, so this caused his emotional world to be blank, he didn't know what love was.
But just now, Liv actually kissed him, this made Xie Yi a little overwhelmed. He didn't want to talk about feelings, he didn't want to talk about it, especially in his current situation...
"That's right, just like what you think, I like you.
So, can you give me an answer now?
Do you agree to be with me, or do you refuse? "Liv had calmed down at this time, she didn't wait for Xie Yi to speak first and asked first.
"Liv, I don't want to talk about feelings now." Xie Yi was silent for a moment, but still opened his mouth to speak.
"I'm sorry, Liv!" Xie Yi looked up at Liv Taylor standing in front of him and said apologetically.
"Okay!
Although it's a little sad, we can still be friends if we can't be lovers. After all, other than feelings, I still find your face very pleasing to the eye, so you can't avoid me in the future! "Liv calmed down and teased.
Just like she said, although she was a little sad that she couldn't be lovers with Xie Yi, it was also good to be friends. After all, she liked Xie Yi more because of his face.
"How did you know?"
Xie Yi was a little surprised after hearing Liv Taylor's words. He did plan to avoid her when he had nothing to do in the future. After all, he felt that it was a little awkward.
"Just think about it. Although you look quite cold and unapproachable, after interacting with you for a long time, you'll find that you're quite simple, especially when it comes to feelings." Liv Taylor said with a smile.
It's a pity that he doesn't like me. I'm a great beauty with a thousand kinds of charm!
Not to mention that everyone loves me, but there are very few people who reject me so directly like Xie Yi.
After hearing Liv Taylor's explanation, Xie Yi smiled. The reason why he wanted to avoid her was because he was afraid that it would be awkward when the two of them met. However, since Liv didn't mind, he naturally wouldn't avoid her. After all, although the two of them didn't have many scenes, it was better this way.
October 13th, the third day of filming for "The Lord of the Rings", and today was also Xie Yi's first scene in the crew.
"Allen, do you know how to move or not?
You're running out of camera range! "Peter Jackson said with a helpless expression.
However, he regretted it as soon as he said it. Wasn't it obvious?
Allen has never acted in a movie before. Why didn't he think of this before? Or was he bewitched by his beauty?
Peter Jackson shook his head as he thought about it.
Ever since Allen put on Legolas's costume and The Elven Prince's makeup on the first day of filming, the entire crew was mesmerized by Xie Yi's outfit. They all praised him for being The Elven Prince. Perhaps even The Elven Prince himself wasn't as good-looking as Xie Yi.
Peter Jackson was also satisfied after seeing Xie Yi's outfit. He said that his judgment would never be wrong. Although there might be a small flaw now, Peter didn't regret choosing Xie Yi. In his opinion, choosing Xie Yi was the right choice. Just look at how many people in the crew were infatuated with Xie Yi. He believed that "The Lord of the Rings" would be even more popular after it was released.
However, Peter's thoughts were just his thoughts. The most important thing now was to solve the problem of Xie Yi learning how to act naturally in front of the camera.
How could he forget that it was Xie Yi's first time acting? Was it because of Xie Yi's acting during the audition that he covered up this fact?
"I'm sorry, director. Maybe you can give me a few days. I'll try my best to overcome it."
Xie Yi had a headache when he thought about the positioning. This was his first time acting in a movie. His acting skills were honed in the script space. He could say that no one could act more like Legolas than him. However, this was his first time acting in a movie. It was no wonder that he made mistakes.
"It's not your fault. I didn't think it through. Your acting was so good during the audition that I forgot that this was your first time acting." Peter Jackson shook his head.
"Next, let's shoot the scene at Weathertop!
You don't have to appear in that scene. It should give you four or five days to learn the positioning. Moreover, Ian hasn't appeared in any scenes recently. He has a lot of experience. Let him teach you! "Peter Jackson looked at Ian McClane for his opinion.
"I'm fine with it. Besides, I'm teaching such a handsome young man." Ian McClane shrugged and joked when he met Peter's gaze.
"Oh, my God. I forgot that you're gay. Ian, don't teach children the wrong things. Allen isn't even 20 years old yet!" Peter patted his head and warned him in a low voice.
He had been so busy recently that he had forgotten about this matter.
However, he wasn't discriminating against homosexuals. After all, this kind of thing was normal in the entertainment industry. Many of his friends were also in the same boat. It was just that this kind of thing wasn't accepted by everyone. Moreover, Alan was still very young. If he was discovered to be gay, his acting career would definitely be ruined. Not everyone had the courage and confidence to come out of the closet like Ian did.
There were many homosexuals in Hollywood, but few of them dared to go public because they didn't have the courage. Those who did go public were either people working behind the scenes or people who were tired of the entertainment industry and wanted to retire.
So in Hollywood, it didn't matter if you were gay, but if you still wanted to stay in the entertainment industry, you couldn't go public.
"Ian, I'll leave the next few days to you!" Xie Yi smiled at Ian McClane.
He had a good relationship with Ian because Ian was really a very knowledgeable, polite, and humorous person. Xie Yi admired him very much.
"Of course, I'll definitely teach you well. I hope that the next time you appear in front of the director, he'll be satisfied!"
Ian glanced at Peter Jackson, who was busy directing the staff, and winked at Xie Yi.
In the next few days, Xie Yi practiced his positioning with Ian's help. He had to know how to move and how not to let himself walk out of the camera. It had to be said that this was a very particular thing.
Fortunately, Xie Yi had a photographic memory. As long as he learned something, he wouldn't forget it. Finally, before the shooting of the next scene, he completely mastered the positioning technique.
The background of "The Lord of the Rings" was huge, so naturally, there were a lot of outdoor scenes. Just the shooting of the first movie alone required more than a hundred locations. However, it had to be said that although it was very tiring to go from location to location, the scenery in these places was really beautiful. It was unknown how Peter found them.
Not counting the last failed appearance, this was the first appearance of The Elven Prince, Legolas, played by Xie Yi.
At five o 'clock in the morning, Xie Yi came to the set to get his makeup done. Although The Elven Prince's makeup was beautiful, it was undoubtedly time-consuming and troublesome.
The makeup artist spent a total of three hours to get everything done for Legolas. Whether it was the pointy elven ears or the soft golden hair, they were all the key points of this makeup.
"No matter how many times I see Allen after makeup, he always makes my heart beat. When I see him, it's as if The Elven Prince really appears in front of me," Grant Majors praised as he looked at Xie Yi with a face full of admiration.
As a loyal fan of "The Lord of the Rings" and the artistic director of the crew, he was really glad that Peter had chosen Allen to play Legolas. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine if anyone else could portray this character so perfectly.
