Chapter 145 International Director's Project No, it’s okay as long as there are passers-by willing to stop their cars and many people want to take photos with you. I can still bear it. Now someone is about to come to you and ask you to make a movie! ? We are all human beings, why should we do that? Wang Xiaotian's eyes almost turned red as he listened to Yu Ke's real-time translation. Is this a bit too much? Not only him, but Zhang Haoran next to him also couldn't help but feel jealous. He felt that Wu Mu was only a little bit more handsome than him, so why was the treatment so different? There was no reason for Wu Mu to refuse the shot that was delivered to his doorstep. But you also have to ask clearly, "What role is it? How long will it take to shoot?" "I'll tell you on the way!" Seeing that he did not refuse, Xavier quickly pulled him into the car. The director was in a hurry to find someone, so the better off they were, the sooner they went, the less he would be scolded later.
"If your friends want to see it, they can get on the bus and squeeze in at the back." He thought Wu Mu and the others were just ordinary passers-by or tourists. But Lin Qingyue and the others who were hiding and filming came out quickly. Xavier was stunned when he saw Lin Qingyue and the others' posture. Then he realized, "Are you filming a show?" Is this passerby he just casually pulled over a colleague? But it seems to make sense when you think about it. It's normal for someone who looks so eye-catching to be a celebrity. Lin Qingyue went up to him and discussed the filming of their program. Chinese celebrities? Filming a variety show called Celebrity Agency? Xavier had naturally never heard of this. When he heard Lin Qingyue asking if they could follow the filming, he frowned and said, "Our director may not agree." After all, their movie hasn't been released yet, and if it was filmed by other program crews there's a risk of leaking the plot. Although the scenes of the character he was looking for would not reveal much, other directors might hesitate, but as a director, he felt it was basically impossible for him to agree. "Who is your director?" Lin Qingyue asked. "Matthew, Matthew Albert." Xavier uttered a name. "Matthew Albert?" As soon as this name came out, Wang Xiaotian screamed in surprise on the spot. Yu Ke and Zhang Haoran were equally surprised. Even Lu Yao looked puzzled, as if she had heard it somewhere before. Wu Mu searched his memory but had no impression of it at all. He asked curiously, "Is this director famous?" "Of course he's famous! He's a super director who has won several international awards!" Wang Xiaotian was no longer jealous, but wanted to go up and punch the bastard! Why is it that this bastard can just walk on the street and still have movies directed by international directors come to him? Is God too partial to him? Xavier breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they all knew the name of their director, thinking that they would not reject them. After all, not all actors have the opportunity to work with an internationally renowned director.
But who would have thought Wu Mu himself was quite surprised to encounter such a thing, but if the program crew was not allowed to film, where could he find the shots and where could he earn points? Even if he gets some points for making a movie, they would at most be points for a minor supporting role. He wouldn't be so stupid as to give up the big for the small. Wu Mu spread his hands towards Xavier and said, "If you can't let our production team shoot, then I can't take it." You still refuse this? Xavier hesitated for a moment and said, "Get in the car first. I'll go ask our director." The group squeezed into the small business car driven by Xavier. Although he hadn't gotten the director's permission yet, he still introduced it to Wu Mu: "Your role is a wandering singer who plays guitar on the roadside. There is about a minute of footage in total. Although it's not too long, it's all close-ups. And it's very important. It's the core metaphor of the plot, so the requirements are very high. But your exit shot is only about 40 seconds. The rest of the time there will be a full view of the hand playing the piano. We will find another stand-in to record it." A one-minute shot, all in close-ups, and it holds a very important position? Wang Xiaotian and his team were undoubtedly a little jealous. The crew of "Love on the Seine" was not far from the Eiffel Tower, right next to the Seine River. Wu Mu soon met the internationally renowned director who had won several gold awards. He was an old man with gray hair and a sloppy beard. This man obviously looked a little difficult to get along with. He was patrolling back and forth in the busy Seine River studio with a sullen face, and it was obvious that he was a person with a bad temper. All the staff and actors who were caught in his gaze fell silent, not daring to say a word. Xavier waited until he finished checking a photographer whose camera was not positioned correctly, then stepped forward cautiously, "Director, I found the person you wanted." The old man nodded expressionlessly at first, but when he was brought to Wu Mu Na, he immediately became unhappy and yelled in French, "Why did you bring a Japanese?" Xavier tried to explain. "They are not Japanese, they are Chinese." The old director named Matthew had a cold face and said, "I don't want Chinese people either. I don't need East Asians in my movie!" "He meets your requirements." Xavier wiped the sweat from his forehead. The old man Matthew already had a sneer on his face. It would be fine if he invited an Asian, but did he meet his requirements by telling lies with his eyes open? How does this person fit the bill? Old man Matthew looked at Wu Mu with a scrutinizing eye. From the looks of Wu Mu's companions, he could tell that this group of people must know his identity, as their attitudes were obviously serious and nervous. But this guy didn't seem nervous at all and was looking at him curiously. What he needs in the plot is a loser, not a mentally strong person like this! Of course Wu Mu couldn't be nervous. He was just a director, and a foreign director at that. Would he be nervous and serious just because he won a few gold awards? Then he traveled through time in vain, and the system came here in vain. He looked at the great French director in front of him with curiosity, mainly concerned about what this man's temper was like and whether he was the type of tyrant on the set. To be honest, there are quite a few directors in the circle who treat actors like their grandsons and scold them. In their hearts, many directors never regard actors as human beings at all. Scolding is good, and some directors will directly beat them for the so-called desired emotions. Wu Mu is too lazy to care about the ecology of the circle, but he is not very willing to cooperate with this kind of director. Lin Qingyue seemed to see through his thoughts, and whispered in Chinese with a smile: "He has a bad temper, but it's only for those who look down on him. If you catch his eye, then it's okay." Only targeting those he despises? Wu Mu smacked his lips. Although Xavier beside him didn't know what he was thinking, he could see his hesitation. He became a little anxious. If this person left, where would he find such a suitable candidate?
He whispered to Wu Mu, "Four thousand. If you can act in the film, I can give you two thousand euros!" Normally, a supporting role in this kind of drama would only get 2,000 euros, but he doubled it, which is considered generous. Although Wu Mu didn't care about this little bit of money at all, he was filming a show now. Wu Mu glanced at Wang Xiaotian and the others whose eyes were already shining. Four thousand euros! With this money, they will no longer be lacking for travel funds! Wang Xiaotian immediately came to Wu Mu with a bottle of water, opened it and handed it to Wu Mu, saying with a smile, "Teacher Wu Mu, you must be tired, come and have a drink of water." Tsk. Wu Mu looked at him with amusement. Okay, I'll make some sacrifices. There are only a few shots and we can finish it quickly. Seeing that he agreed, Xavier breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Wu, repeat the previous state." He wanted Wu Mu to repeat what he did before. But Wu Mu felt that it was unnecessary.
