Chapter 958 [Drag racing! Los Angeles at three in the morning! 】
Guo Xu quickly found the performance status when he entered the crew. He was the boss here and had no pressure at all.
The script is the first draft written by Guo Xu. He has fully understood the character's settings during the time loop. This character is like Marvel's "Star Lord", not only racing with the bgm rhythm, but also dancing with the bgm.
This performance may have a little impact on the 2014 "Guardians of the Galaxy", and Guo Xu doesn't care. At least he left the classic "eandgetyourlove" to the Guards, which is not suitable for racing.
He would rather choose a more difficult and funny performance like Star Lord than act like the original male protagonist.
Soon Guo Xu shocked all the crew members because Guo Xu personally took part in the first racing scene to avoid the police. He did not use stunt actors like many crews to edit the protagonist's faces later.
Moreover, all the plots of his driving skills were completed in one go, without any mistakes, and all kinds of drifts were stunned. Director Edgar Wright repeatedly persuaded Guo Xu not to go on it himself, and after the filming was finished, he couldn't keep his mouth shut for a long time.
The stunt actors who drove a police car to chase the protagonist were convinced and felt inferior.
Edgar asked curiously: "When did you practice driving skills? Is it really okay for you to drive so fast as an NBA player?"
"Tell you a secret, I'm already slow to drive like this. I often wear makeup to race in the racing game, and even participated in underground racing. I am the real boss Tang (fast and passion)." Guo Xu smiled.
"So, you've actually had a hair transplant?" Edgar asked in a low voice.
"You are the wrong focus..."
There is no airtight wall in the world, and soon Guo Xu made the news about racing in the movie crew. However, the NBA has officially stopped, and the labor and capital quarreled. Guo Xu would not be fined even if he participated in a dangerous event.
In fact, Guo Xu has no risk in doing this. His reaction speed and driving skills are not inferior to professional drivers. Some people have participated in underground racing, and Guo Xu has won professional drivers.
The speed of the movie is not fast, and it is just a quick look with post-processing, otherwise it would be impossible to shoot. The veteran driver Guo Xu often drives to avoid police siege and interception in Earth Four. He doesn't dare to do that kind of driving stunt actors. They only have one life and are afraid of death.
Perhaps only those who are not afraid of death can practice the strongest stunts. Guo Xu is also afraid of death on Earth, but he is very powerful and has rich experience when he has reservations.
Not only Guo Xu, the players who violated the NBA ban, were stopped by police on July 8 when Michael Beasley was speeding. What's worse is that during the subsequent inspection, the police found that he had marijuana hidden in his car.
This is not the first time Beasley has been in trouble with marijuana. When he was elected the second place, Beasley was fined $50,000 for violating the league's drug regulations. Later, during an offseason raid inspection, Beasley was found carrying a small amount of marijuana in his car.
Under normal circumstances, Beasley would be severely punished, but NBA spokesman Tim Frank revealed that Beasley is likely to escape the punishment. "During the shutdown, the league's anti-drug agreement, including testing and punishment, will not take effect."
This means that Beasley's problem is just a pure legal issue and he will not be subject to additional penalties from the NBA. Due to the shutdown, there is currently no policy on controlling substance abuse control.
In contrast, Guo Xu's racing is a trivial matter, and he is not illegal. Hollywood shoots many action movies, car chase scenes, and car collision scenes are always popular every year. Many people on the Internet guess this is a publicity stunt deliberately created by the crew.
Guo Xu's entertainment news stole the limelight from those negotiating players and brought up a topic: "How can NBA stars maintain self-discipline during the suspension?"
Recalling the 1998 shutdown, the "Rain Man" Kemp's body shape distorted next season and never regained his competitive state before the shutdown. O'Neal also soared after the shutdown, reaching a career-high 154 kilograms.
Many players may have a decline in their state. After all, teams cannot contact the players, and players cannot contact the team's trainers and medical teams. When no one can restrain their behavior, they often cause a lot of trouble. In the past offseason, due to various restrictions, players had various ways to avoid trouble and stay away from adverse effects.
Guo Xu has been bingeing in famous restaurants in Los Angeles many times, which has attracted widespread attention.
Academic female reporter Audrey Jones interviewed Guo Xu and talked about the topic of "self-discipline".
Guo Xu said relaxedly: "Don't learn from me, it's necessary to control my diet. I have never avoided eating. My biggest hobby is to taste delicious food, famous restaurants, and almost all foods from various countries."
"Aren't you afraid of affecting the game state?" Audrey asked.
Guo Xu shook his head. "I don't care. This is good for everyone. You have to leave some hope for your opponent, right?"
This statement is really too arrogant. Audrey said "Wow" and made a surprised expression at the camera.
"Do you think your physical fitness is still in its peak?"
"I won the dunk championship at my peak and averaged 41 points per game." Guo Xu smiled and said, "I have only participated in the dunk competition once, and now I can't win. If I have always maintained my peak physical fitness and are too cruel to other players, so I eat, drink and have fun every year during the holidays. Do you know what Los Angeles looks like at 3 a.m.? I rarely go to bed before 3 a.m. on holidays."
"Do you often go out to play at night?"
"Well, it's dark at night, and it's not easy to be recognized after putting on makeup. I often attend parties and occasionally go to play something else."
Audrey asked: "Are you not afraid of being questioned after you said this?"
"I don't think some common unspoken rules of NBA are suitable for me. For example, many people say that the performance of the tiebreak in the competition can test the ability of the stars. I have no experience in the finals, I have not even played in the sixth game, and I have never tried to win the championship at home."
"..." Audrey was speechless. When she thought about it carefully, she was used to sweeping the Eastern Conference teams, and played at most five games in the finals.
Guo Xu easily swept his opponents in two years with the Lakers. He led the team to sweep the Pistons in 2004, defeated the Pacers 4-1 in 2005, swept the Cavaliers in 2006, swept the Cavaliers in 2007, swept the Cavaliers in 2009, swept the Celtics in 2010, and swept the Cavaliers again this year.
He has played 9 Finals and has only lost one game in 2005. Because of this game he won the Suns, Reggie Miller was recently pulled out by fans and he scored a lot of three-pointers.
If the Eastern Conference stars do not join forces, they can't threaten the Suns. In addition to the poor lineup of the Suns in 2006, the other time is at least the Big Three configurations. Last season, there were also a group of top-notch players, and Guo Xu was in a very brave state.
After seeing the news, David Stern felt that his hair was missing a little more, and Adam Silva was bald.
Guo Xu is like this at 3 a.m. He won the championship all last season. Next season, his opponents have a way to stop the Suns from winning the championship? After several seasons of running-in, the Suns and the group cooperated more and more tacitly.
The competitors' lineup will not change significantly this summer. The suspension will affect trading and free market recruitment. Even if there are big names in the free market, there are not many strong teams with salary space...
Because Guo Xu and the Suns have too strong dominance, the unprofitable bosses are even more reluctant to give in to players' high salaries. They feel that they can't win at all and that the stars can't attract fans.
