218 Difficulty giving birth to the second male

Putting down the list of heroines who are no longer controversial, Bai Quinn picked up the audition list of the second male lead.

The list of the second male lead audition for the final round was beyond Bai Quinn's expectations, and there was no familiar face.

You should know that there are no less than three "relationship households" he knows, including Paul Walker, who he personally asked for, but Paul hasn't reached the end yet...

In fact, where Bai Quinn didn't pay attention to, the competition for the roles in "Fast and Furious" has already become fierce.

It’s just that his busy business and his status have risen, and he has become arrogant, and a lot of news cannot be heard in his ears.

When news of Wademark's image of a 50 million budget action movie was released, it caused a certain shock in the circle of agents.

The roles of the racing team do not require experience or qualifications. As long as they meet the role requirements, they have the hope of signing three consecutive series contracts. This is a rare opportunity for young men and women who have just entered Hollywood. As long as the first series is established, they will have the capital to settle down in Hollywood.

This kind of young actor doesn't have a lot of agents in his hands.

As for whether it can succeed, there are many smart people in Hollywood, and they are even more confident than Bai Quinn himself.

The screenwriter group is Bai Quinn and Sayed, who just won the Oscar for Best Screenwriter, and they are still good at police and gangster themes.

The success of "Rush Hour" in September proves Wademark's ability to shoot action films, and industry insiders know that this time Wademark's image invited a family class as an action guide.

Hollywood has always believed that successful people can continue to succeed.

Unless they fail...

With Wademark's style in history, a budget of 50 million is a real investment. Moreover, there are no big stars who get a high salary of tens of millions. Bai Quinn, who is the box office leader, only received a salary of four million US dollars, so the production costs will be invested in speed and explosions, which gives the audience the motivation to enter the theater to watch movies.

After all, the scenes of large-scale productions are more exciting to watch in the theater.

These factors invisibly increase the competition for casting.

Paul Walker, who played the second male lead in "Last Summer", did not receive any important roles afterwards. He performed poorly in the primary audition and was immediately squeezed out of the list by his competitors. Even though he was nominated by Bai Quinn himself for the audition, Bai Quinn did not say he wanted to protect him until the last round.

This surprised Bai Quinn, so the words of his vice president are not very useful?

Also falling out of the list is Robert Downey Jr.

During the filming of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Bai Quinn learned Spielberg's method to deal with Tom Sezmore, and had a blood test every day, and his friend Kevin Bacon stared at him every day, which made him honest for a while.

But before "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was released, he relapsed. One day he woke up in a neighbor's house in a daze and was sentenced to three years of probation.

Although some people in the Wademark image blamed Robert Downey Jr. for his "extraordinary behavior" that made the box office of "Just Kill" unsatisfactory, Bai Quinn did not blame him. How could I blame Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes?

Although Robert Downey Jr. only activated two character fragments, they were all so famous that Bai Quinn recognized the character's name at a glance.

However, Robert Downey Jr. once again failed Bai Quinn's expectations. Just as Bai Quinn went out to hide from the limelight, Downey was imprisoned for six months because he missed the drug test scheduled by the court and was tested positive in the subsequent mandatory test.

Robert Downey Jr. is automatically removed from the list.

There are only four names left on the list, interestingly, two of them are from the UK.

...

Executive producer Casey Conrad introduces the actors who are about to enter the audition room.

"Joseph Fiennes, the younger brother of Ralph Fiennes and Martha Fiennes, was born in Wiltshire, England in 1970..."

The routine ended, and when Joseph Fiennes left, Casey Conrad asked Bai Quinn with a handsome face.

"Boss, what do you think of Joseph? It's just the right time for us to sign him now. The "Shapes Love History" starring him will be released next month. He will also play an important role in "Elizabeth" which will be released at the end of the year...

By the way, "Elizabeth" was screened at the Venice Film Festival, and the response was pretty good..."

"How fresh is it?" asked Bai Quinn.

“Freshness?”

"Yes, the freshness of rotten tomatoes. "Elizabeth" is the freshness of rotten tomatoes." Bai Quinn explained.

Casey Conrad quickly lowered his head and searched through the documents to hide his anxiety.

"67%...Sir Vice President..." A female voice came from the corner.

Bai Quinn turned her head and looked at it. A woman with long hair and bangs was hiding behind the IBM laptop. She couldn't see her true appearance clearly. The woman put on a wide photography vest and had a work sign hanging around her neck. She was obviously an employee of Wademark's image.

Guessing Bai Quinn's doubts, Casey Conrad quickly explained: "She is my assistant Lea."

Assistant producer, who is the same job as Eva Green doing with Sophia Coppola, Bai Quinn misses Eva Green on the crew of "Girls Go Forward".

"Thank you, Leah." Bai Quinn nodded and thanked.

Then turn to Casey Conrad: "This freshness is not good."

Casey Conrad wanted to defend Joseph Fiennes a few words, but Bai Quinn said directly: "Let's look at the next candidate."

Casey Conrad is the "President Party", but he still can't resist his thighs when facing the vice president Bai Quinn.

After learning that Joseph Fiennes was Ralph Fiennes' younger brother, Bai Quinn removed him from the shortlist.

Because he knew that Casey Conrad had a good personal relationship with Ralph Fiennes, her boyfriend and Martha Fiennes worked on the Onegin crew, this time Bai Quinn was reluctant to use his resources to earn points for others.

It definitely has nothing to do with Joseph Fiennes and Liv Taylor in "Stealing Incense"!

The next audition was the British, Jude Law, who was a drama actor and improvised a Shakespeare drama that British actors are very good at.

"In addition to the New York accent issue, I think it's okay... Mr. Jude Law, can you learn the New York accent quickly? You should know that your character is a real New Yorker..."

Bai Quinn actually showed a strong tendency in the audition, which shocked Wademark's image of Casey Conrad, among the top five producers. Although the two collaborated for the first time, they had never heard of Bai Quinn doing so obviously in the past.

Casey Conrad naturally didn't know that Bai Quinn unlocked a character's memory fragment at the first sight of Jude Law.

He was a southern soldier with a vicissitudes of face, and his ragged southern military uniform was very easy to identify.

"I will work hard to learn the New York accent, Mr. Quinn White..." Jude Law replied quickly.

Casey Conrad smiled and said, "Yes, QB, you are just a real New Yorker."

Bai Quinn was immediately proud of her. The New Yorker's pride was activated, so she said, "Jude, just call me QB. You should pay attention that the New York accent, the 'r' and 'g' at the end of the word are not pronounced.

What you just said, "going" is sent to "goin".

Read to me...goin...goin..."

For some reason, Jude Law suddenly became very unnatural, and he didn't learn the simple "goin" clearly.

After Jude Law left, Bai Quinn pointed to his head and said, "Hey, I didn't expect that he was very handsome, but he was a little stupid..."

Casey Conrad saw that Bai Quinn was a little interested in Jude Law, and said, "Tanger had a dyslexia back then. It is logical that he couldn't even be an actor if he couldn't understand the script... Can he still overcome it by working hard!"

"I'm pretty optimistic about him..." Bai Quinn said.

Little did he know that Jude Law, who walked out of the audition room, immediately became cold. The agent who was so scared that he greeted him with a smile, swallowed the words he said, followed silently, and did not dare to say anything.

Walking out of Wademark's image in Burbank's office building, Jude Law immediately said: "Andy, turn around and help me turn over "Fast and Furious"!"

The agent was very surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Ju Wademark's image is willing to pay $1.5 million! The sequel has a maximum increase of 100%. If the first part is successful, the second part will be 3 million, and the third part will be 6..."

"I said, push him! Andy!" Jude Law said angrily.

"Okay! OK! Then we only have "Genius Ripley" left... "Crocodile Wisdom" has a bad box office, and the fame you have accumulated with "Wilde"..."

The agent suddenly realized and asked, "Will you meet again..."

Jude Law turned his face out the car window in disgust.

The agent scratched his head and said in confusion: "Isn't the producer of "Fast and Furious" a woman? Casey Conrad, one of the most powerful female producers in Hollywood... Could it be that there are other people... We shouldn't have taken on the role of the male prostitute in "Midnight Garden of Good and Evil", which made everyone think you are..."

"Enough! Drive!" Jude Law said angrily.

Although the agent who took a British accent drove honestly, he still kept saying that he was still unwilling. "Kevin Spacey, who would have thought he was a Gay!...Who was this time? Which executive who was Wademark's image? Joe Drake? This guy doesn't look like...it must be William West! That guy is white and fat..."

Jude Law said impatiently: "It's not him! It's Quinn White! Do you dare believe it?"

The agent Andy immediately braked suddenly, looked at Jude Law in surprise, and said, "Are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure! Have I been harassed by these glasses less in the past two days? I can tell at a glance whether there is any attempt!"

"Wow! This is big news, Qiu! No wonder that kid caught a woman and never changed his girlfriend. Now he is going to get married. There are too few actresses who can tolerate being a wife in the future!

Ah! Quinn Bai's record company partner, that's David Geffen! As expected, the truth is actually hidden in the details..."

...

Bai Quinn naturally didn't know his eager performance, so he was misunderstood by Jude Law and was auditioning for the third candidate.

Josh Hartnett is currently starring Sophia Coppola's "Girls Going Forward". She is two years younger than Bai Quinn. She came to Los Angeles to work hard after graduating from high school. She is a popular new generation of young actors.

"The face is too young to give the audience the feeling of being a policeman..." Bai Quinn gave a negative comment.

Casey Conrad said helplessly: "Then let's go next... However, the next candidate is not old, the same one in 1978, just turned twenty."

Bai Quinn put down his pen and leaned against the back of the chair and said, "Then let's take a look. Actually, I'm quite satisfied with Jude Law, if he can learn a New York accent..."

...

"Hello everyone, I'm Ashton Coochet! It's an actor!

Sorry, I said nonsense, who can stand here is not an actor?

Right? Miss Conrad, I hope you didn't invite me to audition because you saw my CK jeans advertisement...

Forgive me for not wearing CK today...

Forgot CK, it's so harsh, I always want to be separated from it..."

Bai Quinn quietly said to Casey Conrad: "This kid is quite funny. Even if I can't cooperate this time, I will consider him if I have a comedy movie..."

Casey Conrad clicked on Ashton Cooche's resume, and among the very short acting experience was Fox's sitcom "The 70s Show".

After Ashton Cooche left, Bai Quinn began to review the four candidates.

"Everyone has no objection to exclude Josh Hanat first?"

"No..." everyone in the house said together.

Bai Quinn nodded with satisfaction and continued, "What about Joseph Fiennes?"

He wants to see who will "reverse" after he has clearly expressed his likes and dislikes.

Director Ren Wiseman immediately spoke: "I also think Joseph's temperament is not suitable for the role of a policeman, and he lacks a strong expression..."

Bai Quinn nodded with satisfaction and glanced at Casey Conrad, who lowered his head and wrote something without saying a word.

"So what about Ashton Cooche?"

This time there was a dispute. Some people thought it was good, some people opposed it, and they could not stand stalemate for a while.

Bai Quinn turned his head and looked at Kathy's assistant in the corner and asked, "Miss Leah, what about your opinion?"

The woman hurriedly stuck her head out from the back of the computer. She looked pretty good among ordinary people, but in Hollywood, where handsome men and beautiful women gathered, this assistant named Lea looked much more ordinary.

"Am I?" The female assistant's voice was surprised, "I am Patricia Lea Jenkins, Mr. Vice President, you can call me Patty Jenkins..."

"Okay, Patty, what do you think, Ashton Cooche?"

Patty Jenkins said: "He looks handsome and has a good figure. He should be very photogenic, but his jokes are not funny."

This sentence resonated with everyone. After everyone laughed, Patty Jenkins continued: "He looks so much like you, Mr. Vice President."

The scene suddenly became quiet, and Patty Jenkins told the fact that everyone knew it well but was unwilling to point it out.

Ashton Cooche is very similar to Bai Quinn. He is also a model, has a tall figure, an athlete's body and a handsome appearance.

If you put the two on the same screen, anyone will try to compare the advantages and disadvantages of these two "same style" men.

If Bai Quinn doesn't care, it doesn't matter. After all, from many dimensions, Ashton Cooche has no threat to Bai Quinn.

But "Fast and Furious" is planned to be filmed in a trilogy. The third part may not be filmed in three or five years. At that time, the boss who is two years older will be compared with Ashton Cooche...

"This is not a big problem..." Bai Quinn looked indifferent.

Casey Conrad broke the embarrassment first and said, "Or it's Jude Law, I'm most optimistic about him!"

Bai Quinn nodded with satisfaction, feeling that Casey Conrad had made the move this time.

At this moment, the casting director's cell phone rang, and he apologized: "It's Jude Law's agent Andy."

"Chey Conrad urged.

Half a minute later, the casting director put down his phone helplessly and said, "Sorry, QB, Jude Law rejected our invitation for physical reasons..."

There was a quarrel in the house immediately, some accusing Jude Law, and some people found Joseph Fiennes.

Bai Quinn also felt a headache, and wanted to ask when Robert Downey Jr. would be released from prison, or would he wait for him to be released from prison...

Forget it, this idea is crazy!

At this time, Patty Jenkins walked over with his laptop in his arms and placed it in front of Bai Quinn. The computer was playing an advertisement for Pizza Hut.

Patty Jenkins said: "Mr. Vice President, this is James Franko who was eliminated in the last round of casting..."
