Chapter 43: Excessive force (ask for a recommendation ticket)



  After all, the memories in his head are all public information from his previous life.

  The news can give him what people think of as a superior vision, but if he really refines the classification and analyzes the entire business in depth, then his eyes will be dimmed and he will know nothing.

  And the mazes that those big bosses pointed out casually can make Roland feel enlightened.

   Among them, the problem of role operation is naturally included.

In fact, if it weren\'t for the special agreement reached by Chris Columbus and John Hughes, the protagonist of the "Home Alone" project would not have flowed into Roland\'s hands. A business investment of 15 million is not a child\'s play. No matter how Chris Columbus and John Hughes have ideas, they dare not joke about Fox\'s money.

   As for the second male and female second?

  These roles are not just obtained through relationships.

   It is simply impossible to spend money to buy corners here.

  Because in the face of the capital industry chain, no one will struggle with their jobs.

  Of course, there are also guys who join the group based on connections, but those guys get small roles.

Take "Captain Hook" as an example. Gwyneth Paltrow did enter the group as Steven Spielberg\'s goddaughter, but her shots are less than half a minute That\'s all; and Sofia Coppola\'s total appearances in "The Godfather" directed by his father did not exceed two minutes.

  The close friends of these big bosses can\'t get their hands on the protagonist of the crew. Now Roland can directly skip the first two rounds of auditions, which is already a very good result.

   To put it bluntly, just the resources in front of me can make a lot of people envious when they are released.

  When many people were fighting for the ticket to enter the door, Roland was directly born in the destiny circle.

Of course, just when Roland thought that director Chris Columbus had said a lot of good things for him, or that it was the relationship with director Howard that gave him the upper hand, but these guys didn\'t want to put too much pressure on him and didn\'t When not directly stated.

  Chris Columbus gave a different explanation.

   "Do you think I recommended you?"

   "Oh, Roland, you are so cute."

   "Steven did tell us about "Captain Hook" before, but I didn\'t actually think about you."

   "Do you remember that "Change" you played in your audition?"

   "Actually, David Bowie is the Captain Hook that Steven originally chose."

"This project was established in 1985, but at that time, Steven\'s eldest son came suddenly. In order to accompany his child, he didn\'t want to go to the UK to film, so he handed over the project to other people. "

   "And after Steven quit, David Bowie also refused."

   "Because of this, this project has been dragged until now."

  Yes, according to director Robert Zemeckis\' guidance, the song "Change" that Roland played at the "Home Alone" audition was the two casting directors who recalled his root.

  In their view, Roland, who "likes" David Bowie, may be more to Spielberg\'s appetite.

  No matter how Roland thinks, he will never guess that David Bowie may be his lucky star.

  A "Change" not only changed the choice of John Hughes, changed the thinking of Chris Columbus, changed the fate of Macaulay Culkin, but also changed his future of Roland Allen...

   "This...really is a great singer."

   After listening to the information Chris Columbus brought to him, Roland was filled with emotions.

  To be honest, if it wasn\'t for the attack on John Hughes, Roland would never have listened to John Hughes\' songs.

  And now, when Roland discovered that these big names in Hollywood seemed to respect David Bowie very much.

  His gaze naturally shifted to the other party.

After the play, Roland asked Mohamy to drive him to an audio-visual product store and bought all the audio-visual products of David Bowie since his debut. Not only that, the videotape of "Peter Pan" mentioned by Columbus before, It was also included in the bag by Roland.

   After finishing all this, the two continued to go to the chain bookstore to buy books related to "Peter Pan".

  When Roland returned home with a bunch of things, Ganetti, who didn\'t know the cause and effect, was frightened by the sudden sight.

  Following his explanation, the whole family was stunned when they learned what had happened.

   "Roland, can you repeat what you just said?" Ganetti suspected that his ears had misheard, "You said that director Chris came to you today and asked if you want to participate in another movie?"

   "And this movie is actually Spielberg\'s project?"

   "You bought so many books and videotapes just to prepare for the new role?"

   "Yeah..." Looking at the dazed face, Roland felt that his neck was about to break.

  Although he really wanted to say No to calm everyone down, but—

   You really can’t lie about this kind of thing!

   Following his answer, exclamations suddenly rose.

  James looked at Roland dully, and covered his cheeks with his hands.

   "Damn..."

   "Roland! This is a great opportunity!"

   "If you are selected by director Spielberg, then you will definitely be popular!"

   "When I go out, I can say that I am your Roland\'s brother!"

   "Roland, you must work hard, come here, I will help you move your things back..."

  Looking at the earnest figure, Roland wanted to laugh.

  Although there seems to be a problem with James\' focus, his words are correct.

   None of the guys who are favored by Spielberg are not popular.

   Just a TV series "Band of Brothers", I don\'t know how many big names have been attracted.

  This kind of project without his full follow-up has such influence, and its star-making ability can be imagined.

   Not to mention, if Roland wins this project, his fame at the box office is actually an incidental.

   What really excited Roland was the possibility of joining the Jewish gang.

  Of course, although he was directly pushed into the final round by two casting directors, it didn\'t mean that Roland could sit back and relax.

   You know, in Spielberg\'s project, no one can influence his opinion!

   Even if you are his father! (see note ②)

So, when James helped Roland move everything into the house, Roland, who closed the door, started a new round of preparations based on the information provided by Columbus: According to the information disclosed by Columbus, in addition to getting to know David Bow Wei, in addition to knowing "Peter Pan", if you have time, you have to learn the British accent.

  Peter Pan is British, and the storyline of "Captain Hook" is also linked to the United Kingdom. In this case, a fluent Oxford accent is completely in line with the status of a lawyer\'s son in a high society.

Although this is just an inconspicuous skill, or in other words, if a Hollywood actor doesn\'t know multiple accents, then he can\'t go out to meet people at all, but if this skill is put in the children\'s group, it may become a camel crush the last straw.

  Because, even in a family that expects a child to become a dragon, there are not many parents who will emphasize this skill.

  More people prefer to spend time on a series of skills that can be seen, touched, and displayed, such as ballet and piano.

In addition, many crews will choose actors from different places of origin according to the needs of the characters. For example, if they need an actor with a British accent, they will directly choose the British, and if they need an actor with a Texas accent, they will directly choose the Texans. In this case, The possibility of young actors learning an accent is even smaller.

   After all, for child actors, time is money.

   And, according to what Columbus heard from the two audition directors.

The    accent may become a focus of Spielberg\'s attention during the audition.

   "You want to find a speaking teacher? Want to learn the Oxford accent of the upper class and the Cockney accent of the working class?"

   "Okay Roland, I have to admit, you gave me a big surprise."

   "I never thought that you could get this audition."

   "As for the accent? How is that different from an open-book exam?"

   "Don\'t worry, within three days, I will help you find a qualified oral English teacher."

   "Based on when you shoot, they should come over at night and teach you."

   Speaking of this, David suddenly paused, glanced at Roland with obscure eyes, and then continued: "However, before that, I want to ask, are you sure?"

   "Can it be done in one go like the project "Home Alone"?"

  “For the first time, I discovered that it costs so much money to train an actor.”

   "Maybe it\'s because Ashley and Mary have never encountered such a thing before."

  Although David\'s words were full of complaints, Roland could tell that he was just curious.

  Because Roland\'s situation is different from the state of all actors when they became famous.

Ashley and Mary were instant hits, and after they became popular, they all received scripts that they acted in their true colors; and the situation of other actors was similar. At the beginning of their fame, no one would be like Roland, who would directly incarnate into four A beast that swallows gold with its feet.

  The vast majority of people enter the show business circle, isn\'t it just for money?

   Can\'t make money and still put money in it?

  This kind of behavior is not called investment at all for the guys in the mixed circle, but brain damage.

   But Roland is different.

  Let’s not talk about the stealing in the time loop, just the subsequent film contract, let David burn a million, and now, in order to participate in the audition of "Captain Hook", he has to continue to invest and continue to learn.

  This kind of behavior of only going out but not going in, if it was in an ordinary family, it would have been PASSed long ago.

   Want to act?

   Want to get the project?

   Make money by yourself!

  However, for Roland, these are normal.

  Skills are something that you can use once you learn them. There is no loss or loss.

  Even if the words are a little harsher, the cost of learning skills is actually equivalent to spending money to buy opportunities.

It\'s like those rich kids who spend money to go to Stanford, Yale, and Southern California. If you learn that after spending money to learn one or more skills, you have a high probability of beating other candidates and becoming Spielberg. When a member of the grid movie.

  Even if the cost is tens of thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of dollars, or even millions of dollars, some people will take a gamble.

  Because this is a deal with guaranteed capital.

  Once a skill is learned, no one can take it away.

  Next, whether you succeed or not, you will not lose.

  Of course, Roland couldn\'t give what David wanted to hear.

  Because he doesn\'t know if it can be done.

  The last success was due to the time loop, but this time, who knows?

   At least, after hearing about the project "Captain Hook", Roland was not dreaming.

  In the next few days, David really found an oral English teacher for Roland as he said.

Perhaps it was because the money had already been paid, David directly invited the accent correction teacher under the Warner Brothers Audio-Visual Company, and when Roland learned that the middle-aged man with rigid clothes and serious face had been staying in London before. In the West District, when correcting the accents of those theater actors, he was actually in a daze.

  He also finally understood how "luxury" the education of the rich is.

  Not to mention Oneonone’s family education, even the teachers must be top-notch.

  Roland didn\'t dare to ask David about the other party\'s salary at all, because he knew that based on the salary of "Home Alone", even if he went out to sell PG, he still couldn\'t afford the high salary of the other party.

   While studying with the other party, Roland also discovered how awesome his language talent is.

"Oh, boy, you have a typical California accent, all the vowels are bitten like a California orange, and the er at the end of each word is extended by half a syllable, and like all Californians, the main sentence is in a declarative mood , but the sub-sentence goes straight up, just like a roller coaster that doesn’t fall back, and you finish the sentence in one breath, and you still like to say Like.”

   "However, Oxford accent is not like this..."

   "To give you the simplest example, although both the Oxford accent and the California accent will pronounce the vowels very full, the Oxford accent usually adds an /r/ pronunciation before the vowel in the word..."

   "Cockney accents pronounce ei as ai, ai as oi, and i as ei..."

too…

   Special code is difficult!

  Roland just took a class, and he felt his tongue became a big curl!

What\'s the \'t in the middle of the word and the end of the word is mostly silent\', what\'s the \'h is silent\', what\'s the \'r at the end of the word is pronounced with the tongue flat\' and so on—the weird pronunciation habits even made Roland have a kind of Illusion, that is, my CET-6 in the previous life is simply someone who took the test for me!

  Unfortunately, there is no solution to this kind of thing.

  Even if Roland is a big learner, he still has to frown and continue to eat these things.

   And when Roland spared two hours every night for oral learning, this kind of high-intensity continuous practice also caused a little problem in the filming of "Home Alone".

  Looking at the camera, Roland, who recited his lines in a strange tone, the director Columbus, frowned helplessly.

have to…

   This guy really works hard.

but…

  He is overdoing it!

   "Cut!"

   "No Good!"

   "Come here, Roland, and listen to me with my headphones."

Note: ① Spielberg really wanted to invite David Bowie to play Captain Hook at the very beginning. His son was born, and this project may have been filmed in 1985. ②The relationship between Spielberg and his father is not good, because his father wants him to inherit his career as an industrial computer engineer with the mission of helping human progress instead of making movies. His father is very awesome, not an ordinary family at all. His father used to be in charge of the General Electric Industrial Computer Division.
