Chapter Thirteen Two Scripts
Chen Lin rarely has such a glorious moment. In the media, including on the show, he usually shows a relatively calm character.
Several actors were also moved, and they knew very well that if they were really as Chen Lin said, they would definitely become world-renowned stars.
Finally entering the office was Yu Yongfu, the representative of the film, the film was Yu Yongfu, Jiang Defu of Wanda Pictures, and Wang Changtian of Light.
This aspect can also be seen that these companies attach importance to this project.
Especially Wanda, Ye Ning's departure almost hurt their vitality. There must be a big profit project to ensure that Wanda is still the leading boss!
After a brief greeting, the preparatory meeting officially kicked off.
"There are only the confirmed actors at present. By the way, there is also a character called Uncle San who runs through the whole life. I want to find Teacher Wu Gang to play..."
As director and producer, Chen Lin quickly brought the meeting to the point, "You can decide on the others."
"Where is the heroine?"
Big Lao Wang is the most familiar with Chen Lin, and it is very appropriate for him to ask this question.
"…To be honest, if I weren't worried about the male hormone being too strong, I wouldn't want to add the role of this female archaeologist, it would have affected the completeness of the plot too much!"
Tomb robbers are a man’s business, why do you have to have a girl?
"How is Liu Yifei?"
Big Lao Wang looked around and proposed the actor who he wanted.
"Farewell, I can't train actors, so don't mention actresses without acting skills..."
In fact, letting them come for the candidate for the heroine.
There are a total of six roles with many scenes. Chen Lin has set five for each person, and he always has to leave one for investors. He actually wants Li Yitong to play this role.
But you cannot be shameless to this extent.
The protagonist is definitely already an actor under his own position, and the heroine is looking for someone else. Isn’t it shameless?
"…Director Chen, please tell me about what requirements this character needs."
Yu Yongfu asked.
"As aged 20 to 30, you must have acting skills, good figures, and be beautiful! Well, it's better to have a little exotic style!"
Chen Lin thought about it for a while and replied.
"It's better to have a large-scale audition, it can be regarded as a promotional movie!"
Jiang Defu suggested.
"Okay, but it's time to go fast. The preliminary preparations are almost done. I'm going to start shooting after I come back from the Oscars!"
Chen Lin nodded.
He continued, "The production cost of the film is $150 million, and the title will be officially named "The Golden Captain", and the main location will be located in Zhangjiajie..."
Speaking of this, he looked at everyone: "The release date should be this year's New Year's Day holiday!"
"New Year's Day?" Yu Yongfu looked at several people and said directly, "Is it too hasty? After all, it is such a big project..."
Why don’t you say that “Ferryman” will be released on the New Year holiday. Are you worried that you will be squeezed out and there is no market?
"Don't worry, Disney in the "Grave Robbers" series started working on special effects two years ago. The big scenes of the whole movie have been done almost a long time ago. You just need to fill in the plot."
"And I have never participated in the New Year's Day since I made a movie, and I also want to try the competitiveness of the New Year's Day. I heard that director Xiaogang's new film will also be released in the New Year's Day!"
This is true. Our biggest regret for young master is that we have never experienced the New Year holiday that is known as the nation watching movies!
"I support the release of the New Year holiday!"
Jiang Defu looked at Yu Yongfu and then said, "You'd better adjust the release date of your company's movie!"
As a representative of Wanda, Jiang Defu will of course support Chen Lin's decision. After this year, Wanda will restrict Huayi Brothers' movies from all aspects. The reason is very simple, Wang Jianlin was angry!
Ye Ning, the employee he values the most, was poached by Huayi!
It is said that Wang Jianlin never verbally praises an employee because Ye Ning has outstanding performance in Wanda Cultural Industry Group. At the 2O15 Wanda Annual Meeting, Ye Ning was named and praised by Wang Jianlin.
Ye Ning was not very kind, and after leaving, he brought out a series of middle-level or senior managers of Wanda Film and Television, Wuzhou Tour, and Wanda Cinemas. This is a well-known public fact in the industry.
To be honest, any "Chairman Wang" would be furious.
Therefore, it is normal to target Huayi Brothers.
"To be honest, Chen Lin."
The eldest son also looked at Yu Yongfu, "With the achievements you have accumulated over the years, as long as you are not a fool or a young man, you will generally not choose to release them in the same schedule as you!"
Chen Lin smiled.
This sentence is nothing wrong. The king of commercial films in the Chinese film industry is not a joke.
"Okay, let's do it for the time being. Please see the arrangements for other supporting roles. The heroine will audition for the final audition, and I will participate!"
...
"Jin Dong, Hu Ge, you three stay here first, I have something to ask you."
Several big guys left, and the four actors also wanted to leave, but Chen Lin called out the two brothers of the "Pretender".
Peng Yuyan and Wang Kai smiled and walked out of the office.
"This is the script of "Travel to Bangkok". Take a look, Hugo, you are the leading actor."
Take out a stack of manuscript paper from the drawer, hand it to Hu Ge, and then said: "This is character analysis. After filming "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", you will be given a maximum of two weeks of rest."
“…”
Hu Ge was a little speechless. I had the right to choose the script?
Hiding aside, I opened the script and prepared to read it first.
"Jin Dong, this is the original novel "The People's Righteousness" written by Zhou Meisen. This is the script he adapted. The script is well written. Although I don't have time to direct it, I still have the right to make decisions in terms of actors. You are the leading actor."
Jin Dong took over the script and asked casually: "Zhou Meisen? Isn't he specializing in anti-corruption topics?"
"Yes, this TV series is very large. We have a special amnesty from the Supreme People's Procuratorate. This drama is about to be filmed on a large scale! Therefore, the actors we have planned are all old actors, you are just a young and handsome guy. Be careful of being blown up by them!"
"Oh... can you talk about those actors?"
As a traditional drama actor, Jin Dong is still quite proud and has always been very confident in his acting skills.
Hearing Chen Lin say this, he became very excited.
"Haha, Teacher Wu Gang, Teacher Zhang Fengyi, Teacher Xu Yajun, Teacher Zhang Zhijian..."
These names may not be familiar to people outside the circle. Jin Dong is not outside the circle, so he certainly knows what these people mean.
"This...is this true?"
Lao Hu suddenly interrupted and then looked at Jin Dong with envy.
Even Hu Ge is envious of being able to cooperate with so many veteran actors, let alone Jin Dong.
“…I, I’m a little stressed.”
No matter how confident Jin Dong is, he is still a little nervous now.
All kinds of great gods!
How to say it, of course, actors hope to cooperate with colleagues with acting skills, but if the acting skills of both parties are too different, it will not be fun.
Chapter completed!
