Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 194 Lin Yuan and Depp's Duo

Seeing this result, the security guard's first reaction was not vigilance, but some confusion.

Because Lin Yuan acted so confidently, he didn't look like a problematic person at all.

So he saluted Lin Yuan again timidly: "General, I'm sorry that I can't find your identity data?"

Lin Yuan turned his head to look at Depp beside him, and Depp lowered his head and saw that the screen in his hand had just jumped from 99% to 100%.

This meant that the data was written successfully into the database. He gently touched the tip of Lin Yuan's shoe with his leather shoe to indicate that it was done.

"Try again!" Lin Yuan said in an unquestionable tone.

In front of his powerful aura, the guard carefully put the ID into the reader again.

This time, Lin Yuan’s identity information immediately popped up on the screen.

The guard's face showed an expression that this should have happened earlier, so he saluted Lin Yuan and said, "I'm sorry, General! I didn't recognize you sooner!"

But before he could finish his words, Lin Yuan turned and left with a cold expression, leaving him with only an arrogant back.

Seeing this scene, director Cohen couldn't help but sigh again behind the camera: "The general's dominance is expressed with such effortless performance and a few understated glances.

When the audience sees this scene, they will definitely not question why the Kremlin guard is so stupid. They will only think that if I were that guard, I would also be fooled by Lin Yuan.

The same script can be performed with different persuasiveness by different actors."

"When I was watching this performance, I felt that the person in front of the camera was not Lin Yuan at all, but the general himself! There was no trace of acting at all, everything was natural. So this is the highest level an actor can reach?" Although Vin Diesel's acting skills are not very good, he has been acting for so many years and still has some vision.

After going through a difficult hurdle, Depp, carrying his suitcase, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He caught up with Lin Yuan and whispered, "I think it went pretty smoothly! It seems we had good luck today."

Lin Yuan glanced at him with dissatisfaction.

Although he still didn't say a word, everyone could immediately understand the meaning expressed by his eyes: Will you die if you don't set the flag?

Seeing this look, Depp shut his mouth in disappointment.

The two continued to walk forward, and the Soviet-style music in the background became more majestic.

After walking through a magnificent hall and exiting from a small door on the side, the two finally arrived at the core confidential area.

The electronic code door at the entrance was easily cracked, and the two finally came to a straight corridor.

On both sides of this straight corridor are archive rooms where information about the mastermind is stored. As long as Lin Yuan can get in there, he will be able to find the guy who betrayed him.

But the difficulty now is that there is a guard sitting in the corridor camera, and it is impossible for him to sit back and watch Lin Yuan and Depp.

It is almost impossible to pass through this empty corridor with no visual obstructions without being discovered by the guards.

Depp was prepared for this.

The two boxes he carried contained equipment to solve the current dilemma.

"The most difficult scene is coming, but I believe that with Lin Yuan taking the lead, as long as Depp doesn't act too badly, the final effect will not be bad." Vin Diesel said on the side.

"It seems that you are not worried about Lin Yuan at all." Director Cohen replied with a smile.

Vin Diesel gave a matter-of-fact smile.

The difficulty of this scene is that Lin Yuan and Depp have to move forward under the noses of the guards, so they cannot make any noise.

However, the two people must cooperate and communicate when moving forward, so they can only rely on eye contact and sign language to convey information and achieve coordination.

To film this scene well, it is not enough to just let the two characters in the play make a few random gestures, but to allow future cinema audiences to understand what they want to express without any lines.

Otherwise the effect will be that two people will dance around and then the problem will be solved?

What exactly did they communicate?
What did you do after the communication?
This is actually a standard requirement for pantomime performances. The two characters cannot use any lines and must rely entirely on body language and micro-expressions to convey information to the audience. Although Depp has good acting skills, it is still quite difficult for him to perform this part well.

Therefore, when designing this scene, Director Cohen chose Lin Yuan to take the lead in the performance.

Depp was mainly responsible for executing the instructions given by Lin Yuan and responding with some simple and easy-to-understand gestures.

The truly difficult task of conveying micro-expressions and body language all fell on Lin Yuan.

Whether the audience can understand this pantomime performance depends entirely on Lin Yuan’s performance.

Depp first took out a loudspeaker, and then used an onomatopoeia to create the sound of dripping water.

"Tick!"

It was as if a drop of water fell and landed not far away.

The guard turned around with some confusion, stood up, and walked to the side to check.

Taking this opportunity, Depp immediately used a silver curtain to prop up an "invisible wall" to cover the entire section of the corridor.

It is called an "invisible wall" because this silver curtain can really achieve the effect of optical invisibility.

The principle is to use this screen as an image projection screen, and then use eye capture technology to capture the guard's perspective at all times and generate a static image of him.

This screen is one-way transparent, and the guards can only see the image on the screen, but Lin Yuan and his team can clearly see the guards' every move.

To the guards at this moment, the corridor seemed completely empty.

Lin Yuan and the other man hid behind the curtain and pushed it forward when the guards were not paying attention.

As long as you don't advance in front of the guards, you won't be exposed. It's like playing the game of one, two, three, statue.

The invisible curtain had been set up, and the guard turned around and found nothing unusual.

Lin Yuan, who was hiding behind the curtain, stretched out three fingers again, his thumb, index finger and middle finger, and started pinching.

It's so vivid that you can tell at a glance that this is to let Depp continue to make the voice recorder.

So Depp pinched the onomatopoeia again in front of the loudspeaker.

"Tick!"

The sound of dripping water was heard again.

The guard was attracted again and turned his head to check the direction of the dripping water.

Attention has been diverted and progress can be made.

Lin Yuan was seen pushing the curtain with one hand, opening his fist with the other hand and pressing his palm forward and downward several times.

Anyone who sees this action will understand that it means moving forward.

When Depp saw the gesture, he immediately cooperated and pushed the curtain forward.

The next second, seeing the guard's actions, Lin Yuan immediately clenched his fists.

Looking closely at his gestures, his fist shook slightly twice, clearly conveying the meaning of: stay steady.

So Depp immediately cooperated and stopped.

He also smiled at Lin Yuan and gave him a thumbs up.
