Chapter 161 Qian Qian's ambition
After two hours of eating, the topic finally came to "The Martian."
"How are your preparations for The Martian?"
"The engineering team has already arrived at Hongya to start construction. The Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation is building a Mars rover, an engineering vehicle and a rest cabin. I have to burn incense to start the machine in September. It has only been a month and more than 10 million has been spent.
When the machine is officially launched, you will know if 100 million will be enough."
"The biggest headache is the special effects. We have tried our best to use physical special effects, but in some places we still need to use digital special effects. Domestic companies cannot bear such a heavy task, so we have transferred people from South Korea and Japan. The entire special effects team is conservative
There are two thousand people. I think this will slow down the progress, so I applied to the Ministry of National Defense to use the Galaxy supercomputer, but I don’t know if I can get approval.”
The biggest difficulty in "The Martian" is the special effects. There is no trick in this thing, you can only use money and time to smash it.
"Just the post-production special effects alone, even 100 million won't be able to do it." Cheng Yu'an ate his food, "It's so expensive!"
Cheng Yu'an added: "Don't ask for too high a salary. I can't afford it."
"It's not too expensive, it can be a little cheaper."
"Who has decided now?" Qin Hailu asked.
"Zun Long will play the role of Space Director Chen Guohua, Mr. Chen Daoming will play the role of Gao Jianqiang, the leader of the Mars project, and Mr. Zhang Guoli will play Zhang Lu, the director of the laboratory. These three teachers have been selected now."
"Who are you going to let me play?" Qin Hailu asked Cheng Yu'an.
"If you ask me, this character really doesn't have much room for development. The entire drama of "The Martian" is the one-man show of the male protagonist Li Jun, and the others are irrelevant."
"I have never made a science fiction movie. I heard that you have to go to the aviation training center to train, right? This is more fun."
"If you don't think there is little room for role play, I'll give you the role of the female captain of the aerospace team. I originally wanted to find Senior Sister Zeng Li."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, when I was in school, I always came to our school to peek at Zeng Li, and I still haven't changed my mind now." There are too many stars in the 96th class of Chinese dramas.
"How old was I then? I didn't have that thought. I just heard people say how beautiful she was, so why didn't I just go and have a look?" Cheng Yu'an argued.
"Then if you say so, this role should be left to you, Senior Sister Zeng Li." Qin Hailu said with a smile.
"No, no, no, please take it." Cheng Yu'an apologized.
"Brother Yu," Cheng Yu'an mentioned Xia Yu, "you have to gain weight and keep fit."
"No problem." When Xia Yu heard this, he still didn't understand why, "What do you want?"
"Get stronger, are you muscular? Don't train like a bodybuilder. They are all looks, but they must have meat. Li Jun has to take off his clothes. Your whole abdominal muscles will not look good in photos." Xia Yu is now
Very thin.
"I usually tell you to exercise, but you won't listen."
"Hey, that's what you said." Xia Yu was obviously dissatisfied. He stood up and bulged his arms, "Let's keep quiet here and make a fuss!"
"Sister Quan, do you have time?" Cheng Yu'an extended an olive branch to Yuan Quan.
"I'd better forget it. I owe the troupe too many performances that I haven't rehearsed. I have to make up for them this year." Compared with film and television dramas, Yuan Quan obviously prefers the drama stage.
"Okay." Cheng Yu'an looked at his watch, "It's getting late, I have to go back to the company."
With that said, everyone dispersed.
"Xun, why don't you act?" Cheng Yu'an left first, Qin Hailu and Mr. Zhou told her while clearing the dishes.
"I don't want to go to Qing Province. It's too hot and too cold there. I'll rest at home for half a year first."
"You've been idle for three or four months!" Qin Hailu reminded her that she hadn't started working for a long time.
"Oh, really?" Mr. Zhou really thought about it, "Oh, it's okay. I can go back and release an album for fun."
After packing up, Qin Hailu took Liu Tao back.
"Hai Lu..." Liu Tao asked her.
"It's okay, we have gotten to know each other today, and there are still many days to come."
After Cheng Yu'an came out of Mr. Zhou's house, he went to the design institute again and looked at various engineering design drawings. He didn't go home until two o'clock in the morning.
So he came to the company very late the next day.
"Yu'an, come here." As soon as he arrived at the company, Cheng Lingfeng called him away.
Cheng Yu'an saw Liu Yifei as soon as she entered Lingfeng's office.
"Qian Qian, why are you here?" According to Cheng Yu'an's memory, she should be competing for the role of Golden Swallow in "The King of Kung Fu", so how come she has time to come to him?
"Qianxi, tell Yu'an yourself," Cheng Lingfeng said to Liu Yifei.
"Director Cheng, can I play the role of Wang Li?"
Wang Li is one of the six astronauts in "The Martian" and is the system operator and reactor technician of the spacecraft.
The camera did show her from beginning to end, but she didn't have much of a role.
"Sissi, does your mother know that you are casting a role?"
"I came here behind my mother's back." Liu Yifei looked into Cheng Yu'an's eyes, "I can make my own decisions."
Any other actress, Cheng Lingfeng could make the decision, but Liu Yifei is different.
Everyone knows that her mother has the final say in taking roles.
Cheng Yu'an also had a big problem. The role of Wang Li was offered to everyone, but Liu Yifei was more troublesome. He signed an actor contract with Liu Yifei. If Liu Xiaoli came to make a fuss afterwards, no one would look good.
She has said that her precious daughter will not play supporting roles.
Cheng Yu'an thought for a while, but finally refused to agree to Liu Yifei's request: "Qianxi, you'd better go back and discuss it with your mother before coming."
Liu Yifei went back aggrieved.
Ever since she was a child, her mother had always accepted roles for her acting roles. Now that she is almost 0 years old and has not signed a professional agency, her mother and godfather are responsible for all her acting roles.
"Sissi," Liu's mother saw Liu Yifei coming back, "where did you go just now?" Liu's mother just asked casually.
"Oh, I went out for a walk. Mom, is something wrong?"
"Mom has made an agreement with you. Huayi is willing to give you the role of Jin Yanzi, the heroine of "The King of Kung Fu"."
"Really!" Liu Yifei quickly broke away from the previous haze. The two J's came together for the first time, and they were a Hollywood production team. This movie was also watched by many actors, and the popularity even exceeded "The Martian".
"But... Huayi has a request. They want to sign you."
"Ah?" Liu Yifei is also a free and lazy person. How can she stand the constraints of a brokerage company? "Mom, do you agree?"
"Well," Liu Xiaoli nodded, "I won't give Golden Swallow to you if I don't promise. But I said I would sign the contract after the movie is released. They have no objection."
"Mom, I want to try "The Martian."
Liu Xiaoli gets a headache when talking about this, and her daughter can never forget "The Martian": "You have "The King of Kung Fu" now, Jackie Chan or Li Lianhe, who is not as big as the remote media player.
