In the crew, James is absolutely unique. No one can challenge his authority, even if it is Kevin Pence.

But James also knows deep in his heart that Hugo is not a member of the "Titanic" crew. He is just a friendly cameo today-he didn't even get a piece of pay, just to support his friend Leonardo. This is for the rainy day. For fruit, it has already sold the "Titanic" crew a huge face. Therefore, James is not qualified to blame Hugo.

What's more, although Hugo needs to be responsible in the situation just now, it is the staff who really have the problem. If Hugo gets tough and heads up against James, it will be James who will suffer in the end-even if James doesn't care at all.

But to James’ surprise, Hugo not only apologized, but also saved him face in front of the crew, which actually made James a little bit unable to come to the stage-the reason why he resisted Hugo to become a member of the crew before. It was worried that Hugo would confront him head-on in the crew, so that he could not control the crew situation.

Thinking of this, James, who has always been fearless and fearless, is also inevitably a little uncomfortable. However, he straightened his back upright and ignored the short embarrassment just now. "Thank you for joining our crew. I hope we Next time there is a chance for formal cooperation." It seems that the accusation against Hugo just now doesn't exist at all.

Seeing such a righteous and arrogant James, Hugo also choked and couldn't help but smile. He had contact with James several times before and after. Hugo also knew that the possibility of him and James living together in peace is very small, and they should not be in the future. There is an opportunity for cooperation.

But Hugo also gave a polite greeting, "Of course, I hope I can have the opportunity to join your project in the future", just as Hugo thought that today's cooperation is over-James has turned around and is about to leave. I don't want James to stop and turn around, "I heard George say last time. You put forward some very interesting ideas."

"George?" Hugo subconsciously questioned. There are no 10,000 people in Hollywood but also 8,000 people named George. How could a difficult household remember his name?

"Lucas." James added, and Hugo suddenly realized, "Oh." Then he realized what James was talking about, he couldn't help but "Oh" again, and looked at James with a puzzled face. . Hugo smiled awkwardly, "George is bound to say good things about me again. But in fact, I just made some trivial points. I really don't know anything about computer special effects. As a result, George caused Fantastic. So, if there is any credit, it may be that I, as an audience member, put forward some ideas and nothing more."

James raised his eyebrows slightly, and did not comment on Hugo's humility. Just follow along, "In fact, making a movie is such a process, putting together countless impossible ideas, seeking a possible way to evolve into reality. Just like George’s'Star Wars', the computer special effects of the year were fundamental It has not yet begun to develop, but George still shot a work that can change American culture and history. You may just put forward a few irrelevant views, but for those who really understand computer special effects, it can be a spark of inspiration. ."

This... Is this complimenting Hugo? This made Hugo a little uncomfortable. But because James' words were still very plain, Hugo couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or whether he was passionate.

James didn't seem to intend to leave room for Hugo to think, and then said, "I heard that you went to Industrial Light & Magic personally because you were curious about how the computer post-production special effects were made?"

Hugo withdrew his thoughts. Nodded, "Yes, you know, standing in front of a green screen to perform is actually not an easy task. Maybe we have learned more about the production of computer special effects and the pictures presented, which are helpful for performances. of."

"Oh, how do you say?" James asked with interest. Originally, Hugo was just talking casually. He thought James was just showing politeness. After all, James never did much research on performance, but now...

Hugo didn’t hesitate, and said directly, “Let’s put it this way, in the Jurassic Park, when we face the dinosaurs, we need to show a panic expression, but first, the focus of the line of sight will be biased. , This will have an impact on the performance details; secondly, because we are performing against the air, and finally the post-computer production of special effects to fill the gap, then the whole sense of space and the sense of involvement in the play are bound to be different. Simple. In other words, many times when we are acting against the scene, even if the other person is not in the camera, we still need the other person to stand outside the camera and provide us with a reference object for the scene. Computer special effects are the same."

Hugo’s words silenced James for a while, and then raised his head and took a deep look at Hugo, which made Hugo feel a little inexplicable. James opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he shut up. "Maybe you can talk to Leo, he has a lot of thoughts on performance recently, about visual effects, maybe your method is good."

Hugo can clearly feel that this is not what James originally wanted to say, he changed his mind temporarily.

The fact is the same. James originally wanted to ask Hugo’s opinion on the camera, because many scenes of "Titanic" are composed of half real and half computers. This is not only a big challenge for the actors, but also for James. Severe challenge, he has absolute confidence in scene scheduling, but he is not good at capturing the performance of actors. James felt that maybe Hugo could give some constructive opinions, but after the words came to his lips, he couldn't say it after all-he was not used to communicating with actors, not to mention Hugo.

Hugo naturally didn’t know about James’ intense inner activities. He just followed the words and said, “I have limited discussions with Leo. Maybe you can communicate with Leo. As an actor, many times we need Cooperating with the director and having a fuller understanding of the whole scene and plot can meet the director's requirements. Therefore, if the director is willing to communicate directly with the actors, it will be very helpful."

As an actor and as a friend of Leonardo, Hugo gave his most pertinent opinions. However, I can clearly feel the rejection of James-he never likes others to point fingers at his work. It is one thing for him to let Hugo help Leonardo, and it is another time for Hugo to tell him what the director should do. thing.

But this time, James hesitated, and still did not vent his inner dissatisfaction. Instead, he murmured dullly, vaguely referring to the syllable that he could hear "The director is the director...not the actor...", neither Knowing what he was talking about, he took a deep breath and said directly, "Thank you very much for coming to the crew today. I think Kevin will be very happy."

James always changed the subject so stiffly, Hugo was stunned again, and then he had a polite sentence with James, and then watched James turn around and leave. This time, James really left. He began to greet the crew and invest in the next filming.

James is a very proud and even arrogant person. Even if he filmed box office masterpieces like "Titanic" and "Avatar", there are still many Hollywood professionals who don't like him because he is too self-righteous. . But today, he took the initiative to talk to Hugo on a number of topics. Although fragmented, it can be felt that James actually expressed part of his identity with Hugo-such as the actor's strength, such as Hugo's opinions on Industrial Light and Magic.

George Lucas can be said to be one of James's most admired people. After George took Hugo's advice, he applied a lot of his technology to the post-production of "Titanic". This is also an important point that James cannot ignore, so he still expressed his "friendliness" to Hugo today, which is really rare for James.

Even so, Hugo and James are destined to not be friends, and there is no way for the aura of the two to fit together. Fortunately, if Hugo did not become an enemy, it would be impossible to say if Hugo really played the "Titanic".

Hugo looked at the crew in front of him that started to work again, then turned around and entered the waiting room, changing back to his own clothes. Later, Hugo watched the shooting of the two scenes quietly next to him. Although the excitement of the staff can be clearly felt the whole crew is a little impetuous, even James himself is a little anxious, but this Once there was no riot just now, and the staff stayed on their posts.

After saying goodbye to Leonardo, Kate, and James again, Hugo ended the guest appearance of the "Titanic".

When leaving Rosarito, the crowd outside the studio continued to increase, and the crowd at the scene seemed to have increased a lot. This time Hugo still patiently stood on the sofa in the back seat of the car and waved to the crowd from the skylight. Compliments, let the scene once again become a boiling volcano. When I left the studio completely, I could still see the endless red wave surging crazily after turning my head. The screams, shouts, and crying were mixed in the sea breeze and accompanied the car all the way. The waters of the Gulf of California boiled, and the blue sky was dyed bright red at this moment.

Just as Rosarito was boiling because of the Hugo, Los Angeles began to heat up at this time. The midsummer was over, but the unrelenting high temperature still stayed in the North American continent. As the days progressed day by day, "Independence Day" box office The pace of approaching 500 million is getting faster and faster, but it hasn't waited until the "Independence Day" to make history. The battle of the century that caused a sensation in the United States and even the world is about to begin! (To be continued.
