Chapter 69 Projects on the Island of Hawaii
Traveling during Christmas is actually a very troublesome thing.
The movie "Home Alone" can reflect it.
There is a saying: 'Jokes are not nonsense, and adaptations are not random compilations'.
In the movie, the family was stranded at the airport and couldn’t buy a return ticket. That was true.
Since there was no plan in advance, when Roland followed David and appeared at the Honolulu International Airport, it was already the night of the 26th, and when they drove back home, the hands of the clock had quietly reached the 26th. In the early morning of the seventeenth.
Looking at the huge bed, Roland jumped on it without thinking.
Within a few seconds, he snored tiredly after he fell asleep on the pillow.
Such a situation also made the Olsen couple standing at the door a little emotional.
Compared with the three Olsen sisters and the chubby James, Roland is really tired today.
From the time they arrived at the airport at noon, they were recognized in disguise.
Although the news of groupies in this year is not clear, they can't buy the travel information of their favorite guy through social media, and they can't compete for the injection needle used by JJ, but as long as they have watched "Home Alone" Movie guy, who wouldn't recognize Roland Allen?
As the hottest little boy at the moment, his appearance naturally attracted the attention of most people.
Not to mention, beside him, there are the young daughters of all America, the Olsen sisters!
So, when their identities were exposed, the roof of Los Angeles International Airport was almost blown away by enthusiastic waves!
A group of seven people was surrounded by excited and surprised passers-by.
Even if they couldn't take a photo with Roland and the Olsen sisters, they could eagerly shake hands with them and ask for autographs!
The Olsen sisters are okay. Because they are still young, those passers-by just greeted them with a smile, but Roland is miserable. Shaking hands and signing autographs are trivial matters. What makes him most helpless is that there are always guys who like to touch their hands.
I don't know which beautiful young lady started it first. Roland only knew that when he was hugging the fans, he was suddenly attacked by the other party and kissed his forehead. After that, seeing that Roland was not angry, the rest of the guys Just follow suit, and directly painted Roland's big white forehead as the monkey **** of the senior brother...
From being recognized to checking in for the plane, Roland did not know how many guys he had greeted.
but!
He does know one thing!
Those guys who kissed his forehead were all pretty girls!
He won't let the other party touch a lady who is not pretty!
(ω)
Of course, while communicating, those passers-by who were full of unexpected smiles also hoped to get more surprises from Roland.
Facing their inquiries, Roland was naturally full of nonsense.
Only a guy with a broken brain will expose his true information in detail!
Sun Zhengyi said that he has read 4,000 books in two years, so are they really the successful books of Rockefeller and Matsushita Konosuke?
Just kidding!
He himself will never admit that more than half of them are cartoons.
Just like the opening sentence of Tolstoy's "Anna Karenina": All happy families are the same, and every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. In the same way, there are only a few models of success, but there are thousands of reasons for failure.
As for Roland, who gave the answers to fans' questions, the content of his words remained the same.
Although the process of communicating with fans made him very tired, the feeling of being liked made him deeply excited.
Even though she is asleep now, the smile on her face still hasn't faded.
Looking at the guy who was hugging the bedding and happily falling asleep, David blew his nose.
The smell of pickled cosmetics made him smack his lips, "Hey, this is the price of fame..."
"The more people like you, the less your personal space will be."
Of course, while Roland was sleeping soundly, what happened at the airport was also spread by the paparazzi guarding the scene.
Photos of Roland being surrounded by people were published in the entertainment section of major newspapers. The real feedback of the offline popularity really surprised the guys who bought the newspapers.
However, these contents are just chatting materials after vacation.
After watching it, the general public will at most chat with friends after tea and dinner. After seeing it, the peers will at most be jealous of Roland's rise and popularity, and Roland himself...
Why does he care about these things?
People can shoot as they want!
He doesn’t hate grass, doesn’t drink too much, doesn’t drive fast, doesn’t hit people, and has sex…
He looks like a good boy in the new century!
Since he doesn't even make black materials, why should he be afraid of nature's porters?
Because of this, the next morning, Roland, who was extremely relieved, finished washing up, and then discussed the travel plans for the next few days with the Olsen couple at the dinner table.
Go to the Dole Pineapple Plantation, take a small train into the hinterland, and visit this magic maze that has a history of 150 years and has monopolized the supply of pineapples and pineapple juice throughout America;
Go to the whaling town of Lahaina, board the cruise ship, and wait for the group of humpback whales swimming from Alaska;
Come to Temple Valley, the most beautiful and peaceful place on the Hawaiian Islands, and swim in the torch **** sea amidst the singing of birds of paradise;
Go to Waipio Valley, overlooking the waterfall and overlooking the cliff;
Walk on Punalu'u Beach, experience the unique feeling of black sand, and take photos with the sea turtles here;
Enter Volcanoes National Park and see Kilauea, one of the most active volcanoes in the world;
Stop at the big wind, and listen to the roar of the dead who fell to the cliff and committed suicide nearly two hundred years ago;
Walk into Dinosaur Bay, watch ecological movies, change swimsuits, and under the guidance of the coach, dive into the sapphire-like seabed, and have a zero-distance communication with the small colorful fish living under the coral;
Because Roland and the others had a lot of time, the whole itinerary was very comfortable.
Not only that, because the travel team is freed from the frequent transitions, so the three little lolis who follow them will not feel tired because of the journey.
After all, they are on vacation!
I'm not here to travel!
They can go wherever they want, just like Mundo.
As for money?
Many times, when you encounter something you like, you just buy it.
Money is not really spent, but in another form, to stay with you.
Maybe it’s because the colorful world outside is too beautiful, but it’s more like the incomparable relaxation after leaving the cage (home).
Whether it's James, Ashley, Mary, or the youngest Elizabeth, they didn't complain, but followed their parents and enjoyed everything happily.
As for Roland?
He had more fun playing.
Diving, sailing, kayaking, sandboarding, parasailing and speedboats, he tried all the activities that can be played.
Isn’t the previous diligence and hard work just for the present?
If struggle is not for better enjoyment, then what is the point of living?
Although the high housing price is also one of the goals, but that, there is no rush, right?
Being able to have fun with guys who know me while on vacation.
"Goodbye Jack, John, Tom, I'm leaving."
"Goodbye Roland, it's a pleasure meeting you. Next year's "Terminator 2", I will definitely go to the theater to join in."
"Oh, thank you, I can make more movies because of your support."
"Don't say that, as long as your work is good enough, I think we will always like you."
Because the itinerary is very coherent, it only took six days to visit the eight scenic spots.
Seeing that there are still three days before the day of return, so after spending the New Year's Eve at home in Honolulu, a few people got together to think about it, and decided to go to one of the top ten consortiums in America, belonging to the Morgan family Kualoa Ranch.
Kuraloa was established in 1850. It is a 4,000-acre cattle ranch located in the northeast of Oahu, Hawaii, only a 45-minute drive from Honolulu.
The landforms are diverse, ranging from steep cliffs to the sparkling sea, from dense tropical rainforest to open valleys, from beautiful white sandy beaches to emerald green cliff faces, with all kinds of winding paths, which is why it is even more beautiful here. It is known as a paradise for outdoor recreation.
The reason why Roland and the others didn't choose this place before is because many places can only be passed by horseback riding, and Ashley, Mary, Elizabeth and the others have not yet reached the age of riding a horse. If they come to play separately, it is not the same as abandoning the original family outing. Is it the original intention?
But now, since everyone has almost played, then...
Even if you are walking, you can get together!
However, for Roland, who has countless materials in his mind, this place is actually Hengdian in Hawaii.
Except for those playgrounds, other projects are not of much interest.
What can really add points to this place is actually the real shooting locations of those works that have not yet been released.
Because Roland and the others came in the wrong year, so what is the filming location of Wu Baige's "Windtalker", the filming location of Bang Bei's "Pearl Harbor", and the filming location of Monica Bellucci's "Tears of the Sun"? , Adam Sandler's "Fifty First Dates" filming locations, TV series "Lost" and "Paradise Law Enforcer" filming locations, none of them saw it.
but…
None of this matters.
He just came here a few years earlier, if he wants to watch it in the future, there are plenty of opportunities.
What's more, it has not been over-developed here, but it retains the original flavor of the original rainforest.
Because of this, out of safety considerations, after Roland and the others came in, they chose a less dangerous project.
Take a six-wheeled Swiss Army jeep and step into the beautiful Ka'awa Valley.
Follow the jungle path through riverbeds and steep hills to explore the most primitive Hakip Smoky Mountains.
However, just as the seven people were enthusiastically wearing equipment and taking precautions against mosquito bites by the car—
They met a bunch of acquaintances.
Oh no.
is an acquaintance, and a bunch of friends of that acquaintance.
"Director?"
When Roland looked at the familiar figure and asked doubtfully, the people who were picking out the jeep all turned their heads.
When the guy wearing rimless glasses surrounded by a group of people cast doubtful eyes on the direction of the voice, the Olsen couple, who wanted to step forward and apologize for Roland's reckless behavior, all He froze in place.
"Roland? Why are you here? You should be studying filming with James in the crew now!"
"Director, Director James gave us a vacation, so we went out on vacation..."
The whole world can know that there are only a few guys who Roland is pestering Cameron to study filming.
There are even fewer guys who can naturally say the names of Roland and Cameron without their surnames.
Among them, there is only one who wears glasses.
Yes…
Roland never expected that at the beginning of 1991, he would be able to meet Spielberg, the big backer he wanted to be close to the most, in the resort of Hawaii in the beginning of 1991; The truck driver, who was filmed crazily in the movie, even gave the crew members a big holiday at Christmas.
"James wants to rest? This is an anecdote."
"Could it be that you bored him so much? That's why he gave the crew a break during the holidays so that they could go out and get some fresh air?"
And just as Roland finished speaking, following Spielberg, the brown-haired woman with a shawl immediately raised her eyebrows and joked, and there was nothing strange in her words when they first met.
Following her words, the people around her let out a wave of good-natured laughter.
Of course they knew Roland, and knew even more what the words of these two people meant.
"Oh, I should call you..." Although Roland had already recognized the other party, he still asked politely.
"Just call me Catherine."
That's right, the lady who made fun of Roland was Spielberg's queen producer, Catherine Kennedy.
In this future, there is not one of the most powerful women in Hollywood.
"Okay, Catherine, what you just said is wrong." After receiving the affirmative reply from the other party, Roland shrugged his shoulders decisively, and said, "I didn't really bother James, I just asked him so that he wanted to beat me up." That's all..."
"After all, when I squeezed him to watch the monitor on the set, he wanted to roll up his sleeves and have a live-action PK with me."
While speaking, Roland raised his right hand and waved it twice out of thin air.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Such a situation made those "insiders" at the scene burst into laughter.
Not only that, they also said:
"Oh, Roland, you are more interesting than Kevin on the big screen."
"It seems that Chris (Columbus) was right before, you guys are quite open."
"Do you know what Joe (Pacey) said about you? He said that the best way to test whether your basic skills are solid is to come and teach you, because you always like to get to the bottom of things, which annoys him."
Although all these guys use derogatory terms, the meaning of the joke in the words is quite obvious.
They didn't ridicule Roland because of his troubles in the crew. On the contrary, they were very curious about the situation of those colleagues.
However, now is obviously not the time to talk about family matters. After explaining the reason why he appeared here, Roland licked his face and asked Spielberg and the others the reason very naturally.
In the face of Roland's inquiry, Spielberg, who had firmly believed that Robert Zemeckis was hiding something from him, had no intention of hiding it. While wearing a mosquito-proof coat in front of Roland, he also said: "Our projects are all one after another. On James' side, after the filming of "Terminator 2", doesn't he just want to film "Spiderman"? On my side, after the filming of "Captain Hook", there are also The new movie, we have to follow it up..."
Although what Spielberg said was secret in the circle, none of the guys at the scene had any intention of stopping it.
They all know what happened to Roland.
Since Zemeckis taught Spielberg behind his back, then this man has to be accepted no matter what.
It's like Francis Coppola takes George Lucas to the front, George Lucas escorts Steven Spielberg, and the three of them are Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen It’s like the movie… When you enter this circle, if you encounter trouble, sometimes these guys will solve the problem before you even ask for help.
So, when Roland's curiosity was aroused by Spielberg's words, he wanted to get to the bottom of it, but he got the exact answer from Catherine.
"What project?"
"do not you know?"
"Steven told me before that James accepted you into the "Terminator 2" crew and talked with him for a long time, hoping to win the screenwriter position of the movie..."
What?
After Catherine said this, Roland's memory immediately returned to the day of the "Terminator 2" audition.
As the picture flashed, an exact logo appeared in his mind.
It turned out to be "Jurassic Park"...
"Captain Hook" hasn't been filmed yet, and they are starting to make this dinosaur movie now?
Note: ① Many poisonous chicken soups are saying that when Sun Zhengyi was 23 years old, he was hospitalized for more than two years due to liver disease. During this period, he read 4,000 books. These books helped him become the richest man in Japan , but in 2002, Hiromitsu Kumata, director of the Gastroenterology Department of Toranomon Hospital, Sun Zhengyi's attending physician, and later the branch director of Toranomon Hospital, said in an interview with "Medical Tribune" that every time he saw him, he would While reading comics, I didn't read much about economics and business. ②The filming of "Jurassic Park" was from August to November of 1992. However, in July of 1990, after Spielberg got the film copyright, Industrial Light & Magic began to make dinosaur models , Katherine Kennedy and the others are choosing a location for shooting. ③ "Jurassic Park" was indeed filmed at Kualoa Ranch in Hawaii, and the helicopter in the movie belonged to the Morgan family, so it was discarded as a scenic spot after filming. ④Katherine Kennedy is the second highest-grossing producer behind Spielberg.
