Chapter 72 Nolan
"Ha ha ha ha……"

A foreigner actor sitting on a chair was so excited that he couldn't stop laughing, and all the big guys in the room couldn't help laughing. At this time, Mr. Zhang played by Sun Honglei suddenly pulled out a gun and shot the foreigner character in the head.

……

"Crack!"

"Okay, that's it."

The filming continued in the afternoon. This scene mainly showed the extreme cruelty of Mr. Zhang, the leader of the South Korean gang. Sun Honglei has very rich experience in filming this kind of scene, and he can even be said to be handy. Li Lianhua has also entered the state, so the progress of the afternoon filming Significantly faster.

Li Lianhua was sprayed with "blood plasma" on her face just now, and now the makeup artist is touching up her makeup, and Sun Honglei took advantage of the gap to come to the monitor to discuss the role with Li Mu.

The two chatted for about 5 minutes, during which Li Mu stared at Sun Honglei for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject and said:

"I have a role in my mind that is very suitable for you. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is tailor-made for you. After the filming of this movie is finished, I will find time to write the script and show it to you. If you think it is suitable, come here. Help me play a role."

"Okay, the script has started to be prepared. Director Li can just say hello to me. I will definitely be there." Sun Honglei paused for a moment, and then half-seriously and half-jokingly said, "Director Li has a script that can think of me. Director, you think highly of me, and we will definitely continue after Director Li gives us face."

Li Mu said with a smile: "Brother Hong Lei, let's stop being so polite. You are so much older than me and entered the industry earlier. I'm really not used to you being too polite."

"Those who are successful come first. I entered the industry very early, but my achievements are nothing compared to Director Li."

Afterwards, the two exchanged a few words of business, and Li Mu asked again: "Why don't you ask me what role I asked you to play?"

Sun Honglei said: "Don't ask, Director Li, you just said that the role is tailor-made for me. With your words, Director Li, I conclude that the role must not be bad."

Li Mu smiled and said: "It's almost time to wait for the filming to be released for the audience to evaluate, but the role of this character must be enough, no matter how you say it, it is the protagonist."

Sun Honglei's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

He thought that Li Mu was going to ask him to play a supporting role like a gangster again, but he didn't expect it to be the protagonist this time!

Who is Li Mu?

A great screenwriter and director who is ranked number one in the world!

"Taken" has a global box office of 2.8 million, and "Assassin" has a global box office of 3.55 million—all in US dollars!
This achievement can be achieved in the whole of Hollywood. If it is placed in the Chinese circle - in terms of box office performance alone, even top directors such as Zhang Yimou, Li An, Chen Kaige, Wu Yusen and other top directors would avoid it.

Not to mention the fact that the total sales volume of his novels in the United States is close to 2000 million copies. Now the entire Chinese Internet is discussing this matter fiercely, and some people on Tianya are already trying to make Li Mu a god.

Such a great screenwriter and director actually said that he would tailor a script for him, Sun Honglei, and let him play the leading role?

Sun Honglei was so excited that he immediately stood up from the chair and immediately expressed his opinion: "Director Li, don't worry, you will know what kind of person I am, Sun Honglei, after the cooperation of this movie. I may not have many other advantages, but When it comes to how dedicated I am to my career as an actor, it can definitely be called [-]% serious and responsible. I, Sun Honglei, dare not say anything else, but I dare say that I am [-]% responsible for the role I play, for my own [-]% professional and responsible.”

At this moment, the surrounding crew members also looked at Sun Honglei with deep envy, and everyone understood Sun Honglei's performance at this moment.

Although Li Mu is much younger than Sun Honglei, but the film and television industry is a very realistic circle. If your movie can get a high box office, then your words must have more weight than others; if your works are more popular, then your words will be natural Just have more confidence than others.

"Brother Honglei, don't get excited, listen to me." Li Mu said quickly, "What I just said was not a movie script, but a TV drama script. I just bought the film and television copyright of a novel recently. It's very short, about [-] words, but the content is very interesting. I liked it very much after reading it, and I thought about writing the novel into a TV series. When I conceived the characters, I thought you were very suitable to play the leading actor in it. So What I just said is actually a TV drama script, to be precise, a script of a spy war drama.”

"It doesn't matter if it's a movie script or a TV drama script, as long as it's written by you, Director Li, the quality of the script can't be wrong. As long as Director Li thinks it's suitable for me to play, then I will definitely take the role."

"Okay, let's make a deal then."

"It's a word."

In fact, after hearing that it was a TV drama script, Sun Honglei was somewhat disappointed.

Even if you don't mention the fact that movie actors have a higher status, just look at Li Mu's previous works, all of them are movies. Director Li has never made a TV series since his debut. How is the quality of his TV series? Can he be as good as him? The movie he made was so popular, Sun Honglei actually didn't have any bottom line in his heart.

But at this moment, Sun Honglei has identified one point - director Li Mu has a bright future!Even saying that director Li Mu is the most promising director in the future visible to the naked eye in the Huaxia entertainment industry is not an exaggeration!As long as he has a good relationship with director Li Mu, it will definitely do more good than harm for his future!

Soon the scene manager came to report that the actors had finished their makeup, Li Mu and Sun Honglei immediately ended the conversation, and everyone once again turned their main energy to the filming of the movie "Super Body".

On the third day of filming, actor Morgan Freeman entered the set earlier than expected, and then the crew adjusted the shooting schedule, giving priority to shooting shots with Morgan Freeman on stage.

Three days later, most of Morgan Freeman's scenes were filmed, and Morgan Freeman temporarily left the crew, but his scenes have not yet been completed. When the crew moved to Xiangjiang for filming, Morgan Freeman wanted to Go to Xiangjiang with the crew to complete the final scene.

On the tenth day of filming, two characters that Li Mu never expected came to the crew: Christopher Nolan and Jonathan Nolan.

That's right, it's the famous director Nolan who filmed "Batman Begins", "The Prestige" and "Memento"!
Nolan, who is about to explode in word-of-mouth and make the Joker a god, the world's first superhero movie "The Dark Knight" with a box office of more than $10.

The Nolan who will shoot "The Dark Knight Rises" in the future.

If Li Mu hadn't appeared, the Nolan who would have filmed the movies "Inception" and "Interstellar" would have been.

However, with the appearance of Li Mu, Nolan definitely has no chance to shoot the two films "Inception" and "Interstellar".

As for the other Nolan who came with him—Jonathan Nolan, this person is actually the younger brother of the director Nolan.

Soon after graduating from college, Jonathan Nolan worked as a production assistant for his brother Christopher Nolan's film "Memento". It is worth mentioning that "Memento" is adapted from his short story.

After the success of "Memento," Jonathan Nolan went on to co-write his brother Christopher Nolan's screenplay, and the two recently collaborated on "The Prestige."

In the future, he will also cooperate with his brother to complete the film "The Dark Knight" and "The Dark Knight Rises".

Due to the unexpected visit of the two Nolan directors, Li Mu immediately adjusted the shooting plan again, and arranged for the assistant director of the crew to shoot less important scenes first, while he personally received the two at the hotel where the crew stayed.

"Are you going too?"

Li Mu looked at Li Lianhua who had heard the news and asked.

Li Lianhua sneered and said: "Of course, anyway, the shooting plan has been adjusted, and I won't be in the scene for a while. Besides, there are two people coming from them, so it's not fair if we only go to you alone." , and if I’m here, you can have someone to adjust the atmosphere if you are cold, isn’t it good?”

Li Mu nodded when he heard the words: "It's good to have someone who serves tea and water, then let's go together."
