Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 216: Unreachable A-level Difficulty

Lin Yuan continued to check the changes brought about by this attribute upgrade to the sound of his own piano.

With the further improvement in agility, the basic success rate of B-level action scenes jumped directly from 74% to 80%.

This means that, combined with the skill adjustments made in each specific scene, it is very likely that Lin Yuan will have a success rate of over 90% in most B-level action scenes.

Sure enough, after the attribute exceeded 20 points, the impact on the success rate of action scenes became huge again.

Especially the attribute of agility is so important.

In several action scenes that Lin Yuan has filmed recently, agility played a huge role.

When facing those extreme challenges, the role that strength and physical fitness can play is limited after all: it is impossible to really become a superman who cannot be killed by falls or broken by punches, right?
The key to meeting these challenges is to react faster and move more nimbly.

But Lin Yuan had a question: even if the physical body passed through the thunderstorm cloud, it could only be considered a B-level action scene.

So how can we achieve A-level action scenes?
If one day, he can bring A-level action scenes to the audience on the big screen.

Will it astound and completely ignite audiences around the world?

Or will they be captured and studied as monsters?
Lin Yuan mentally instructed, "System, evaluate the success rate of my A-level challenging action scenes."

[The host's current success rate in challenging A-level action scenes is: 5%]

……

After seeing this answer, Lin Yuan really didn’t know how to comment.

In all the action scenes he had filmed before, the difference between D-level difficulty and C-level difficulty was actually not that big.

When he filmed "The Fast and the Furious" for the first time, he expected the difficulty to be D level, but due to an accident, it was upgraded to C level.

In this world, besides him, actors like Chen Long, Li Renjie and even Tom Cruise also have the possibility to successfully challenge the C-level difficulty.

However, when the difficulty rises to level B, it is completely different from level C.

Apart from him, there is no other action actor who can pull off these action scenes.

After all, Lin Yuan was able to complete the task without any danger only by relying on the human's ultimate physical fitness and the support of various master-level skills.

Now it seems that there is a huge gap between level A difficulty and level B difficulty.

If Lin Yuan wants to challenge the A-level difficulty action scenes, he must first increase the three basic attributes to 3 points, and then rely on skill corrections to make the challenge possible.

But he is not in a hurry. After all, he is only 20 years old and has enough time to slowly settle down.

"Ding Dong" the doorbell rang again.

"Come in!" Lin Yuan shouted.

Mr. Eisen pushed the door open and came in: "Didn't that affect your flirting with the pretty nurse?"

Lin Yuan rolled his eyes. He was too disdainful to answer such a question.

"Then let me ask it another way. Were you teased by the nurse?" Mr. Eisen especially liked to tease Lin Yuan with this.

Maybe it's the envy and resentment of an old man who has passed his youth towards a young man.

"I just finished filming a movie and I'm covered in injuries. How can I have time to think about such nonsense?" Lin Yuan replied. "I really envy your wonderful life! Tell me, what's it like to fly through a thunderstorm with almost no protection?" Mr. Eisen asked.

"As helpless as a broken doll in a washing machine." Lin Yuan's answer was very insightful.

"Are you okay with your injuries? When can you be discharged from the hospital?"

"It's almost done. I will go through the discharge procedures tomorrow. Then I will try to finish my role in "The King of Spy Wars" within two weeks." Lin Yuan replied.

Mr. Eisen calculated the time and replied, "This way you have six days to rest. Filming for Pirates of the Caribbean 12 officially begins on December 6th."

Lin Yuan’s schedule is really tight. He has to film one movie after another, and any time he has in between is filled with various trivial matters.

"How can I have time to rest? I have to go to Japan again in the next few days. Akira Toriyama is already urging me to communicate the details of the comics' actions." Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly.

"I read your scripts for the second and third Pirates of the Caribbean films, and I always felt something was wrong. What were you thinking?" asked Mr. Eisen.

Because the plots of the second and third "Pirates of the Caribbean" films are highly related, Lin Yuan compiled the scripts of both films at once.

During filming, common scenes and shots will be completed together, which can save a lot of filming costs.

When Mr. Eisen was reading the script, he keenly noticed that Lin Yuan began to leave himself a way out.

"Yes, I will still be the main actor in the second movie, but I will gradually hand over the leading role to Depp. By the third movie, he will become the real protagonist, and I can slowly fade out of this series of movies." Lin Yuan said.

Lin Yuan didn't say it clearly, but he believed that his intentions would be understood immediately by Mr. Eisen, who already had a tacit understanding with him.

After all, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" film series is dominated by Disney, and the copyright of the film is also in the hands of the other party.

Although Lin Yuan's cooperation with Disney can generate considerable profits, Disney still gets the biggest piece of the pie.

In the past, conditions did not allow it and he had to rely on Disney. But now, as conditions mature, Lin Yuan increasingly feels that his film studio should take the lead.

If we say that Lin Yuan was just a free ride in the first "Pirates of the Caribbean", it was also a major breakthrough in establishing himself as a leading man in Hollywood.

Then the second "Pirates of the Caribbean" is like laying eggs by borrowing chickens, using this series of movies to help itself defeat "The Lord of the Rings 3" and complete the system's ring mission.

Lin Yuan can't work in other people's movies forever. There is always an end to helping others.

He is already considering gradually withdrawing from this film series.

But "Pirates of the Caribbean" is such a huge cash cow, he can't just quit and leave, otherwise he will completely offend Disney.

Therefore, Lin Yuan made such a gradual exit plan: in the second part, he would focus on training Depp, and then he would further fade out in the third part.

If Disney continues to make sequels in the future, then I can reasonably choose not to participate.

"Yes, it's time for us to surface. When 'The King' is released and does well enough, we won't be able to hide anymore," Mr. Eisen replied.

"Will it lead to suppression from our opponents?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Of course, the market is so small. No one wants to have one more person squeezed at the dinner table," Mr. Eisen replied.

"You can't become a king without going through blood and gore. I've been mentally prepared for this. I just don't know which guys will crown us with their blood." Lin Yuan replied.

"Our opponents will come from the eight major Hollywood film studios?" Lin Yuan asked further.
