Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

The next moment, the scene switched to a cabin about 30 square meters in size.

This cabin, which appeared in the previous broadcast of the encounter with the cliff at sea, is the Virginia's dining room.

At this time, the restaurant was crowded with more than 20 crew members squeezed into this small space, which seemed extremely crowded.

The air was filled with the steam of food, mixed with the noisy sounds of the crew members talking in low voices, creating a tense yet warm atmosphere.

Lin Yuan, director Cohen, Meng Tao and Depp were sitting at a small dining table, quickly putting food from their plates into their mouths.

Their movements were quick and orderly, as if they were engaging in a silent eating competition.

The stewed beef with potatoes on the plate was steaming, the beef was stewed until soft, the potatoes were dense and tasty, and the sauce was rich. It was obviously a delicacy that would whet one's appetite.

Director Cohen scooped up the last spoonful of rice covered in sauce and put it into his mouth: "I've finished eating. You guys are actually eating slower than an old man like me. Can you guys do that?"

The other three immediately protested, "That's because you ordered the least amount of food!"

Director Cohen said cheekily, "I don't care. I finished first. You guys keep going. The slowest one will be responsible for installing the WeChat camera."

After hearing Director Cohen's words, the three of them immediately sped up.

Lin Yuan was the fastest, and the spoon in his hand almost never stopped.

He skillfully scooped up the potatoes and beef together, quickly put them into his mouth, chewed them a few times and swallowed them, his movements clean and neat.

His plate was empty, with only a little sauce left. He dipped the last mouthful of rice into the sauce and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I'm done eating too. Let's see which of you two will take on the heavy responsibility." Lin Yuan said, patting his stomach.

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Meng Tao not only didn't speed up, but instead smiled and patted the table and said, "Men can't just compete in speed. Moderate speed is best. Anyway, I will definitely not lose to Depp. He still has half a bowl left."

Hearing Meng Tao's ridicule, Depp raised his head in anger and sorrow: "I only packed a little more food. Who knew that you would pack so little food just to win? Have you forgotten how hungry you were last night?"

Seeing this scene, the audience laughed out loud:

"Hahaha, although I don't know why they have to have an eating competition, but seeing Depp is about to lose, I really want to laugh." said a young female audience member.

"The eating speed competition is probably to finish the meal quickly and make room for other sailors to eat. I know that when dining in a submarine, the meal time cannot exceed 5 minutes." said the boyfriend next to the female spectator.

"Why is the time so short?" the female audience asked curiously.

"Because the space in each cabin in the submarine is very small, and more than a hundred people need to eat, they have to queue up to eat. So the meal usually takes no more than 5 minutes," the boyfriend replied.

"Wow! You're amazing! How do you know everything?"

"It's not that I'm great... I don't know much about submarines, it's just that there's a slogan on the wall."

At this time, everyone noticed that there was a large message on the wall of the restaurant:

Please finish your meal within 5 minutes and don’t let your companions wait for you with empty stomachs!

5 minutes is really a short time, which means that eating is not a pleasure, but a necessary thing to meet the needs of the body.

"It's really not easy, whether it's the submarine officers and soldiers or the crew members like Lin Yuan. In order to make a good film, Lin Yuan and his team not only risked danger but also had to endure the various inconveniences of life on a submarine."

"Since the meal time is so short, why prepare food like stewed beef with potatoes? Such hot food is not suitable for submarine officers and soldiers to eat quickly, right?" said a spectator.

"Didn't you notice? The meal was braised beef with potatoes and rice. The chef on the boat must have modified the recipe to cater to Lin Yuan's taste." said another careful viewer.

"Hearing you say that, I just noticed that the rice was indeed specially prepared. Otherwise, they should have eaten bread, which is more in line with everyone's eating habits."

"The entire crew of the Virginia, led by Commander Lewis, was incredibly kind and considerate to Lin Yuan. No wonder Lin Yuan risked his life to repair the damage for everyone."

The audience seemed to suddenly guess why this clip was played in the behind-the-scenes footage.

This is not what happened during the filming process, but a fragment of the life of Lin Yuan and others on the Virginia outside of filming.

As we all know, underwater life in submarines is mysterious to many people, let alone nuclear submarines.

Therefore, Director Coen inserted a clip reflecting underwater life. Although it has nothing to do with the filming process of the movie, it can still attract the audience's attention.

And this clip is not just about eating, it also contains a lot of hidden information:
Life underwater is very inconvenient, whether it is eating, bathing, going to the toilet, sleeping... every one of them is far less comfortable than on land.

By seeing that everyone has to queue up to eat in the restaurant and that meal times are strictly limited, the audience can clearly feel how difficult it is.

The audience can naturally understand how much inconvenience Lin Yuan, director Cohen and others endured while filming this scene.

Of course, all the officers and soldiers of the Virginia were also very caring towards Lin Yuan and others, which eliminated some of the slight grievances hidden in their hearts when they watched "Legendary Road" before.

Most of the audiences who were able to go to the cinema to watch "Legendary Road" were emotionally on Lin Yuan's side.

From their point of view, no matter how strong Lin Yuan is, he is an amateur in the underwater field after all, while the officers and soldiers on the Virginia submarine are professionals.

When faced with a problem, the professionals didn't shoulder the burden, but let Lin Yuan rush in the front...

Even though they knew in their hearts that no one else could do something like extravehicular maintenance, they still felt that Lin Yuan was always giving unilaterally.

From the audience's point of view, they were somewhat dissatisfied with the officers and soldiers of the Virginia.

But after playing this clip, everyone will realize that this atmosphere of harmonious coexistence and mutual care has existed from the beginning.

Such a clip is obviously not suitable to be put into "Legendary Road".

It’s not that stories that happened outside of filming cannot be included in "Legendary Road". For example, the bonfire party under the snow-capped mountains was loved by the audience.

But that scene was filmed right after the scene of climbing the big ice wall, and the bonfire party as a celebration party was the ending of the whole story.

However, the clips of the eating competition in the restaurant are not connected.

If it is put into the main film of "Legendary Road", the narrative of the film will become fragmented.

Director Coen cut out this segment and put it at the end of "Legendary Road" as a behind-the-scenes feature, leaving a subtle sense of warmth as an aftertaste. This can be said to be a very smart move.

Just like having a cup of tea after a big meal, it gives people a sense of perfect ending.

However, Director Cohen's cup of tea has a slightly different flavor.

On the big screen, Depp suddenly stood up, and director Lin Yuan and Cohen immediately extended their plates to him.

Depp quickly distributed the food on the plate to Director Cohen and Lin Yuan.

After the three of them divided the food, they immediately started stuffing it into their mouths, and in an instant, the food was gone.

Before Meng Tao could react, the three of them placed their plates in front of him: "You lose, you are the last one!"

This scene left Meng Tao dumbfounded.

No, what are you doing?

Are you teaming up to trick me?
"You are helping Depp cheat! If you hadn't helped him, he would have been the last one!" Meng Tao protested.

"Protests are invalid!" said Director Cohen.

"Did anyone say that you can't help others with their meals?" Lin Yuan also said with a smile.

"If you lose, you lose. Just accept the task obediently." Depp said with a proud look on his face.

"Judging from your actions, this must have been planned long ago! Have you been planning to plot against me for a long time?" Meng Tao said angrily.

"Of course. Do you think I'm stupid for taking so much food? If I didn't take a little more, how could you take the bait and make this bet with me?" Depp said with a smirk.

Seeing this scene, there was a burst of laughter and the theater was filled with joy.

"I'm dying of laughter. I originally thought it was Depp who was unlucky, but I didn't expect it to be Meng Tao." "Hahaha, although I like to see Depp get into trouble, I would be happier if Meng Tao was the unlucky one!"

"What are they betting on? It can't be about who throws the soap in the shower, right?"

"You're so dirty! But if it was Meng Tao who threw the soap, I really wouldn't be interested. My gallbladder isn't very healthy, so I can't eat anything so fatty."

"Stop talking, look, they're getting up!"

On the big screen, Meng Tao was walking in front with a look of grief and anger on his face, like a prisoner being taken to the execution ground.

"Can you really bear to watch me drill that small hole? I'm so big, it can't bear it." Meng Tao said pitifully.

"You should accept the loss if you can't afford it! Don't gamble in the first place." Depp said proudly, "Besides, isn't Lin Yuan going to drill it later? And he's done it more often and for longer periods than you. What are you complaining about?"

The conversation between Depp and Meng Tao made the audience say:

I didn’t understand, but I seemed to understand.

Are you talking about some weird topics?

The audience began to discuss it enthusiastically. No matter where it is, this kind of vulgar joke always makes everyone interested.

But the next second, their enthusiastic discussion was interrupted.

Lin Yuan and others, led by several submarine sailors, came to the torpedo launch room.

As soon as he entered the torpedo launch room, Depp rubbed his arms and said: "No matter how many times I come here, the first thing that reminds me of the company's crazy air conditioning temperature."

"What's the air conditioning temperature?" Director Cohen asked.

"Well! You know, my partner is a pervert. He always likes to set the air conditioner to 18 degrees during meetings, which makes me freeze every time. I often catch colds, which must be related to this damn air conditioner temperature." Depp complained.

Depp's agency contract is not with Linyuan Pictures. He just has a very deep cooperative relationship with Linyuan Pictures. He has his own independent studio and undertakes work for major film companies.

Lin Yuan also agreed with Depp's complaints.

Under normal circumstances, it is enough to set the air conditioner to 26 degrees in summer. 24 degrees is already a bit cold, but there are always some people in the world who like to set the air conditioner to 18 degrees.

It was a temperature that gave one goosebumps, the same temperature as inside the torpedo compartment at that moment.

Lin Yuan reached out and touched the seven or eight meter long torpedo on the guide rail. It felt cold.

Seeing this scene, the audience exclaimed again:

"Wow! Is this the torpedo launch room of a nuclear submarine? The shelves are filled with big, thick torpedoes!"

"That's so cool! This is the first time I've seen what a torpedo launching compartment looks like. Thanks to Lin Yuan for letting me see this scene, but is this really not a leak?"

"Why are they in the torpedo bay? Bet it's not related to the torpedo bay?"

On the big screen, Director Cohen handed the miniature camera to Meng Tao: "I'm counting on you. Install it securely. Make sure all three shooting points are done well."

After saying that, he smiled and signaled to the submarine sailors that they could begin.

"Bang!"

A submarine sailor opens the hatch of a torpedo launcher.

Looking at the dark torpedo tube, Meng Tao gritted his teeth and started to drill in.

However, the torpedo tube was too narrow. For someone with a round body like Meng Tao, it was really a challenge to get in.

The audience in the theater burst into laughter as they watched Meng Tao awkwardly twist his body and struggle to get into the torpedo launcher.

The fat buttocks are like an extra-large millstone, twisting and turning with force, the picture is simply visual pollution.

"It really makes me laugh to death. This is so unfriendly to fat people."

"Hahaha! I'm really afraid Meng Tao will get stuck in there!"

After a burst of laughter, everyone realized the hidden message revealed by the behind-the-scenes footage:
"Wow! Installing cameras inside torpedo tubes?"

"Does this mean that Lin Yuan has a plot to get into a torpedo tube?"

"Of course! Otherwise, why install a camera? Is Lin Yuan planning to be ejected from the launch tube by the high-intensity water flow?"

"It's unlikely. The pressure is too great. People will be crushed to pieces."

"Anyway, drilling into a torpedo tube is bound to be a fascinating plot sequence. Lin Yuan is truly amazing at this!"

Lin Yuan smiled but said nothing about the audience's reactions.

The scene of exiting the torpedo tube is no less exciting than the fire tornado and climbing the ice wall. It can be said to be the most complicated action scene he has ever filmed.

The mysterious strategic missile nuclear submarine;

Carrying torpedoes, rushing straight towards the enemy submarine;

A violent telescopic explosion underwater;
With the help of narwhals and bowhead whales...

Even if any one of these elements is taken individually, it will make the audience excited, let alone if they are all compressed into a seven or eight minute plot?
Lin Yuan believes that this clip, which he shot after many twists and turns, will definitely far exceed the audience's expectations.

We will release some information first, while the audience is still immersed in guessing how much surprise the torpedo launcher can bring them.

But they don’t know that this is just the tip of the iceberg, and what will really shock them is still to come.

"Hahaha!"

Suddenly, a burst of laughter came from the theater, bringing Lin Yuan back to his senses.

"I'm stuck!" On the big screen, Meng Tao shouted while twisting his butt.

"Don't be ridiculous, how could it be stuck?" Depp said.

"It's true! There is a torpedo launch buckle point in the middle of the launch tube, which is narrower than the normal place. I can't use any strength and can't pull it out by myself." Meng Tao shouted.

"Give you a hand?"

"Good brother, give me a hand."

"You said it! Here I come!"

"My pants!"

The picture finally stopped at Meng Tao's red underwear, causing the audience to burst into laughter again.

At this point, "Legendary Road" has come to an end.

Thunderous applause rang out again.

Lin Yuan and Liu Yufei silently stood up from their seats and walked out hand in hand.

There is no doubt that "Legendary Road" and "Lord of Spy 2" have already secured victory.

And the performance of these two films will far exceed their expectations.

Even if it goes according to expectations, the box office results are already an incredible leap, which will greatly affect the film industry and even the entire entertainment market.

Now it has even exceeded expectations, so we have to face this sweet trouble. (End of this chapter)
