179. Chapter 179 Thanksgiving

"Frankly speaking, I'm on Fred's side this time. I played major roles in two movies at about the same time. Are you really busy?" About "Ocean's Eleven" and "The Fast and the Furious"

Due to scheduling issues, Sanders rarely stood opposite Sean, "Let's

Let's take a look. Although "Perfect Thief" is scheduled to close in February next year, your role has not yet started. "Ocean's Eleven" is likely to start filming in early February next year, and "Fast and Furious" may start filming in early March.

How can you have so much time to rest and adjust?"

"As long as the schedule is arranged, it's no problem, isn't it?" Sean said exactly what he said to Frederick, "It depends on you, Sandy, how to arrange the time reasonably and just right.

How to communicate with the crew and let them cooperate with my schedule is a burden that will be placed on you."

"...I'm starting to understand Fred." Sanders said teasingly after looking at him for a while.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem. I will let Fred cooperate with you." Sean smiled and patted his shoulder, and then said: "Does he still think I need a bigger production? Even if it's "

"Ocean's Eleven" could not satisfy him. He thought the investment was low and I was not the protagonist.

I still insist that now is not the time to take on a purely commercial film with an investment of hundreds of millions, but what he said makes some sense, so we might as well make up for the quantity with quality. The influence brought by enough high-box-office films should not be lost

For a big production with an uncertain future, right?"

"Okay, then use your intuition." Sanders could only reply.

After finishing a movie, Sean is really confident about joining two crews at the same time, or entering two crews separately. If analyzed carefully, whether it is "The Perfect Thief" or "Ocean's Eleven"

Or "The Fast and the Furious", these characters won't take him too much energy to create.

Especially the former and the latter. In the former, he is just a prop master. He is quite normal and doesn’t have much to show off. The ones who really need acting skills are the heroine and the two male protagonists. When the time comes, they just have to follow the director’s instructions. Later.

The same is true for the police officer. A young police officer who has just entered the profession goes to work as an undercover agent in a motorcycle gang, and then becomes sympathetic to a criminal investment and falls in love with his sister, and finally lets him go. It is really bloody.

Therefore, the highlight of "The Fast and the Furious" is not the actors' performances, but the various speeding skills. As long as the story maintains basic rationality and adds a bit of suspense, the actors only need to be cool and cool.

.

Although Sean is not very handsome, if he wants to be more sunny, he can still show it, and he has a good figure, otherwise Frederick would not have won the jeans advertisement for him in the first place. Other than that,

, coupled with the contradictory maturity, perfectly matches this role, and it will not be a problem to play him well.

The only one that required acting skills was "Ocean's Eleven". The role Sean got was that of a young pickpocket who was born into a family of thieves. He had a lot of scenes to play with Clooney and Pitt, and he also had to play a government employee to steal casinos.

The password that the boss carries with him means that it has to be performed in the plot, which is still a bit difficult.

However, no matter how difficult it is, it will never reach the level of "Sniper Phone Booth", and it may not even be as good as "The Talented Mr. Ripley". Sean doesn't think he will be outclassed by Clooney or Pitt, so it seems very troublesome, but

As long as the crew is taken care of, there's nothing to worry about.

Besides, I might cause some changes, causing some movies to start shooting earlier or later, or even cancel projects. After all, I was not an actor like myself in my previous life, and I don’t know who starred in the original versions of the roles I got.

of.

Of course, Sean doesn't know that some things have indeed changed. For example, the filming of the first "Fast and Furious" was supposed to start this summer, but for some reason it was delayed until now. Sean also doesn't know that some things are just the beginning, and next year

It promises to be a very busy year.

Therefore, he is still worrying about the upcoming month of the month and the upcoming Thanksgiving Day.

"I don't want to go back at first. This may be a wrong decision." He told his two best friends, "Although I haven't been home for two years, I really should go back and have a look. I'm not sure what will happen."

"But you have already promised your sister." Galen reminded him.

"Yes, I know, but I didn't say 100% that I would go back," Sean shrugged. "If we go back and we quarrel again... So why not bring my mother here and let the old man spend Thanksgiving alone?"

Already."

Then he thought of something and smiled evilly: "Of course, I can also call my mother privately, tell her not to tell others, and then let Liana stay at home with the old man - what do you think?"

When he turned around to look, he found that both Galen and Sanders looked ugly, even looking like they were slightly frightened.

Sean was stunned for about five seconds before he reacted, and immediately laughed dryly: "Okay, okay, I'll inform Liana personally, is that okay?"

After a pause, he added: "How about you invite your mothers here too? Now no one can use the topic as an excuse."

"Go!" Galen and Sanders both gave him the middle finger.

Then, the cell phone rang, and coincidentally and unfortunately, the caller was Lianna.

"Are you ready? Don't tell me that you want to run away." This was the first sentence over there. She was indeed Sean's sister.

"Um...this..." The words that came to his mouth were swallowed back involuntarily. Although Sean was mentally equipped, he was really not sure that Lianna would not use the V-word gold after hearing it.

Saw or spin sparks against yourself.

"So you have that idea?" The other person sighed and surprisingly didn't say anything more.

"I don't want to ruin my mom's Thanksgiving," Sean coughed dryly, "So, I thought maybe I could invite her over and spend Thanksgiving in Los Angeles."

"Then you leave dad alone at home in San Francisco?" Leanna sneered.

Now that it has come to this point, Sean just keeps saying: "You can stay with him over there."

After saying that, he took a deep breath and held the phone a little further away, but he didn't hear the sharp reply he expected, just silence that lasted for several minutes.

"Are you still there, Lianna?" Sean asked carefully.

"Dad hopes you come back." Liana said softly.

"How...how is that possible!" Sean's eyes widened immediately and he almost lost his grip on the phone.

"That's it, you can think about it yourself." He didn't say anything more and hung up the phone directly.

Sean stood there in confusion holding his cell phone, as if he still couldn't believe what he just heard. That stubborn old man who wanted to save face wanted him to go back?!

On November 22, the day before Thanksgiving, Sean, who completely left everything in Los Angeles to Galen and Sanders, returned to San Francisco after a few hours of driving. Although he had been away for two years,

But nothing has changed much here. Time seems to pass very slowly. The only obvious thing is that there are fewer public phone booths on the streets.

When filming "Phone Box" before, screenwriter Cohen said in the narration of the story that as mobile phones become more and more popular, these public phone booths will become fewer and fewer, and eventually they will be completely eliminated. The functions of mobile phones will only become more and more popular.

Powerful, smart phones will appear in about seven or eight years. Every time he thinks about this, Sean can't help but sigh. If only he had money to buy Apple stocks.

After parking the car in a parking lot not far from home, Sean walked slowly on the familiar streets with his luggage, although he specifically drove back the Mercedes-Benz CL600 instead of the 1967 Mustang he recently bought.

GT500 Classic - The old man doesn't like those models that were popular in the 1970s, so since he has softened in disguise, Sean naturally has to make a gesture.

However, after not being back for such a long time, he still missed this place very much, and he felt a little uneasy, so he simply parked in the parking lot and walked all the way back.

I just walked for more than ten minutes and didn't meet anyone I knew. It was really depressing. You have to know that tomorrow is Thanksgiving, today is already a holiday, and the streets outside the community are still empty of people as usual. It's really unbelievable.

Know what to say. This is an American characteristic. Generally, during non-holidays, there are very few pedestrians on the community streets.

In any case, there are only close to 300 million people living in an area of ​​nearly 4 million square miles, and there are more habitable plains than mountains, so there are far fewer natural people. Therefore, no one watched the people who were killed on community streets in the movie

The plot we came across is not aimless.

Soon, Sean could see the slightly Baroque-style roof of his villa covering an area of ​​more than 800 square feet. Even though it was winter, the vines climbing on the walls had not completely lost their leaves.

The neighborhood is very eye-catching.

Sighing softly in his heart, Sean quickened his pace and took a few more minutes to reach the door. To his surprise, the door was wide open, as if he was waiting for someone on purpose.

It shouldn't be me, he said in his mind. He didn't call home when he left Los Angeles, and repeatedly told Galen and Sanders to keep quiet. As for his sister, she couldn't possibly know the specific time of his return.

Stepping into the front yard of the villa, the grass is still full of vibrant green, and the surrounding scenery has basically remained unchanged. There are still blooming flowers, strangely trimmed shrubs, and... a tall figure holding a hand.

Their eyes met with shock, surprise, annoyance, and countless contempt. Sean even felt that he saw a little glimmer of light, and then, the next second——
Chapter completed!
