I want to make headlines

Chapter 922 Cold War 2 (Two in One)

"I'm just recommending it, it's up to Disney to decide."

"I just invest a little bit, the big one is Disney, and by the way, Tencent also invests."

"Everyone is a good actor, but Disney can only use one actor in the end."

After Gan Jing met with Disney's casting team, he let out such rumors that this time domestic actresses paid more attention to this role than he had imagined. Even mahjong player Liu Jialing appeared in the Everyone at the dinner table asked vaguely, how about her playing Mulan?
Obviously, the answer to this question is not too difficult, but the actress's heartbeat can be seen.

The reason for everything is that there are too few major production resources for absolute heroines, not to mention second-tier and third-tier actresses, even first-tier actresses, usually have to be paired with male stars, and the roles are often less than their counterparts.

This can also be reflected in the remuneration, male actors of the same level get more money than actresses.

Gan Jing didn't care much about what others thought, but this time he also felt a bit overwhelmed by the many actresses. Those who could make it to the front line had a few brushes, and those who were twisted and wounded handed them over without knowing what the relationship was. In the end, , he can only choose to express his position publicly.

——I'm not in charge!
This remark was hardly accepted at the beginning, but as the casting and investigation team of Disney was in full swing, and the crew of "Cold War 2" maintained normal shooting, everyone saw Forrest Gump's low-key appearance, and gradually began to understand. It's like believing it or not.

Disney's team includes Hollywood gold medal producers, stylists, and vice presidents. At the same time, there are also Hollywood actors Yang Ziqiong and Gong Li's agent in Hollywood, David Unger. They not only provide advice for Disney, but also accompany them in making A 3-day Mulan root-seeking tour.

From this point of view, what A-Gump said is true?

His opinion is just as a reference for Disney?
Now, Disney's casting has just begun?
As proof of this idea, many famous and non-famous actresses in Huaxia have been officially invited by Disney to audition.

Either joyful, nervous, anticipating, or complaining, the actresses once again launched a wave of fierce competition.

Gan Jing, who was filming "Chill 2" in Hong Kong, got contact from Lao Chen and Liu Yifei after half a month of dormancy.

"Forrest Gump, it's done, she has agreed to join Hundred Days Red."

"Brother Gang, please take care of me in the future."

After Gan Jing hung up two phone calls in a row, he thought about the matter on his own. He didn't have any part to film today. He came to watch Zhou Runfa. Brother Fa didn't have too many plots in this movie. We will cooperate with you, and we will take a look at it when we have time.

Speaking of which, he has made his debut for quite a few years. Recently, Gan Jing wants to see other people's filming status more and more, and wants to meet seniors with different experiences. sit down.

"A-Gump, what are you thinking? I saw you distracted from a distance." Liang Chaowei has already finished filming today's scene, and he sat next to the pensive A-Gump with makeup on, and said with a smile, "There have been a lot of news in the past two days Talking about Disney's role competition, it seems quite fierce."

Gan Jing smiled and said: "Some things seem to have just begun, but they are actually over."

"Then who did he use?" Liang Chaowei glanced at Forrest Gump, wondering if he had used his favorite candidate. There are many factors involved in a big production, and it doesn't necessarily mean that he can use whoever he wants.

"Wei Zai, this is called a secret, how can you say it casually." Gan Jing stared at Zhou Runfa who was acting in the field, and said casually, "Anyway, I will know soon."

Liang Chaowei nodded slowly. It sounds like Disney is using the casting process for publicity and release activities. Although the result may be fixed, it is a relatively routine operation to attract fans' attention in this way.

Gan Jing glanced at Liang Chaowei, and felt that Liu Jialing might have ordered him to ask this question. Normally, Liang Chaowei would not be too curious, but the couple were still tight-lipped.

"What do you think of Brother Fa's performance in this scene?" Gan Jing looked at Zhou Runfa in a suit and asked Liang Chaowei.

The current scene is a confrontation between Zhou Runfa and Liang Chaowei, but the director didn't follow the usual pattern of filming, he only let the two have a small confrontation, and then they filmed separately.

"I think?" Liang Chaowei paused, "Well... what do you think?"

Gan Jing was a bit dumbfounded, but he didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "I think the acting seems a little exaggerated, is it an illusion?"

Liang Chaowei blinked, and the repeater said: "Is it an illusion?"

Gan admired his neck and said with a smile: "Mr. Liang Chaowei, what's the matter? Are you afraid of Brother Fa? You want to be a friend."

Liang Chaowei continued to blink, smiled and waved his hands.

Gan Jing shook his head, got up and walked towards the director Liang Lemin, and communicated in a low voice: "This scene of the Legislative Council, can Fa Ge shoot it like this?"

Liang Lemin asked in surprise: "Do you think it's not good? I think it's not bad."

Gan Jing thought for a while and asked, "Director Liang, why did you split the scene between these two people? To be honest, I don't think there is any spark in the scene shot like this."

"I just want to try." Liang Lemin, a big man, said this with a feeling of shyness, and he continued, "In my play, there are Fa Ge, Wei Zai, and Forrest Gump, so... …I wanted to try a different approach.”

"cough?"

Gan Jing coughed, but he didn't expect Liang Lemin to be quite kind. Although he felt that the director's attempt was not very effective, it was courageous to dare to try this way among big names. He is not afraid of being questioned by the public... …

"Well, Director Liang, that's just my personal feeling. I'll save this scene for now. I'll let Fa Ge and I try it out tomorrow. Anyway, the scenes are all the same. I still think that only when the actors collide with each other can they inspire more excitement." Sparks, can act with more tension."

Gan Jing's tone was very gentle, he controlled himself and didn't want to put pressure on Liang Lemin, this was just communication rather than accusation.

"Okay, I'll tell Brother Fa later that he probably wants to do the filming first." Liang Lemin had already cooperated with Forrest Gump once before, and he always knew that Forrest Gump was not as sharp as he thought outside.

Gan Jing strolled back to sit beside Liang Chaowei.

"Tomorrow I will play a rival scene with Brother Fa, are you interested?"

Liang Chaowei's eyes lit up, and he nodded without hesitation: "Of course I'm interested."

……

In mid-April, the weather temperature gradually picks up.

The scene recorder and production staff in the crew got up earlier than other people. They needed to do all the preparations before filming, so they were prone to sweating when they were busy.

However, once the props are placed and the scene is arranged, they will be free, and they can chat about gossip and the crew while waiting.

"Did you hear yesterday, A-Gump said that Brother Fa did not perform well."

"I didn't hear it on the spot, but I heard people say later that this tail is really high. I feel that this person who won the best actor abroad has an arrogant mouth! Brother Fa is a senior after all!"

"Hey, there was a lot of talk in the news a while ago, about how A-Gump is so influential, how can he let Disney use the person he wants to choose, isn't it quiet now?"

"Just listen to these things, draft. In terms of influence, he wanted Zhou Dongyu to win our Academy Awards before, so it's useless. If he has influence, why can't the movie about the lawsuit not be released? ? If he is influential, why won't Huaxia's movies be classified? If he..."

Ding dong, ding dong.

Buzz, buzz.

The two people who were chatting nonsense had notifications on their mobile phones. They each opened it and saw that it was the latest entertainment news. Although the scene notes and drama affairs were a bit low-level, they were still insiders after all, and they all liked to follow the news.

——Bai Rihong signed Liu Yifei, or a win-win situation.

The two looked at each other after reading the message pushed by their mobile phones. What does it mean to sign a contract at this time?
They had vague guesses in their hearts.

"Work, work, and check again to see if anything went wrong."

The interest in chatting is interrupted by an entertainment news, and the chat can't continue, it's better to work.

Gan Jing arrived at the set a bit late that day, and he received congratulations or inquiries from friends in the circle one after another, wanting to confirm whether Liu Yifei's joining Hundred Days Red was the real news.

Turns out, that's certainly true.

Because of this, many actresses who had previously participated in the "Makeup Photo Competition" secretly asked, "Forrest Gump, has the role of Disney been finalized?" "Forrest Gump, Liu Yifei came to your company for the first time. What kind of drama is it? If it’s good, I’ll join too.”…

At this time, Gan Jing still can't say what his opinion means to the investors of this film. The casting activity has not been announced yet!
Both Disney and Tencent did say, however, that they would respect their opinions.

Leaving aside the former, the latter, as another investor from China, respects the judgment of professionals, and is very good at using the judgment of other professionals to reproduce their own games and businesses.

Now investing in a movie like "Mulan", Tencent still needs professional advice. As one of the most famous actors in China and the hottest movie star in recent years, Forrest Gump's opinion is undoubtedly the most professional.

Of course, these things are all communicated in private. On the bright side, such a casting event is needed to stir up the enthusiasm. This year marks the 19th anniversary of the release of the "Mulan" animated film. If it is released next year, the 20th anniversary is still okay. Fry again.

"Forrest Gump, your news caused me to lose [-] Hong Kong dollars." Liang Chaowei, who had no part in the show today and was dressed very loosely, said so just when he saw Forrest Gump.

"What news? Mr. Liang, gambling is not a good behavior."

"It's the news that Liu Yifei signed to Hundred Days Red. I just made a bet with Jia Ling last night. She said that you will definitely sign Liu Yifei and push her to play Mulan. Then, before the arrival, your news will be announced. " Liang Chaowei shook his head and sighed.

"Then I'm going to find Sister Jialing to share half of it." Gan Jing smiled and scanned the crew, only to find that Brother Fa didn't put on his makeup in the dressing room, but did it directly outside the crew.

After Gan Jing finished speaking, he looked at Liang Chaowei, who was a little distressed, and suddenly said: "Actually, we can cooperate. Next time you bet with Sister Jialing that I can directly affect the aspects, we can completely manipulate."

Liang Chaowei hesitated and said, "Everything you win is my family's money, so I'm at a disadvantage."

"Wei Zai's head is still very clear." Gan Jing got up, walked to the dressing room, and said before leaving, "Money in a woman's hand and money in your own hand are two different things. This store is no longer there."

Liang Chaowei gave a rare middle finger.

Gan Jing's make-up always takes a long time. It's not that he plays big names, but that his characters often have characteristics beyond his age.

Old man makeup in Hollywood used to be the most time-consuming. Now it is better, but it is still later than others. For example, in "Chill 2", Liu Jiehui, played by Gan Jing, is the chief of police, so naturally it takes two White temples are more natural.

The illogicality of the story can easily make the audience play, the awkward makeup of the actors can easily make the audience play, and even the off-stage image of the actor sometimes makes the audience play.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Gan Jing finished his make-up. He was dressed in a well-fitting suit and looked like a young and vigorous official. He had two sharp eyebrows, gray temples, and neatly combed hair.

At first glance, it looks like a different person.

"Brother Fa, please give me some pointers." Gan Jing first greeted Zhou Runfa when he arrived on the set.

"Don't ask me to give advice. As soon as you ask me to give advice, I will get nervous." Zhou Runfa amused A-Gump by pretending to take a deep breath.

The actors are in their positions, and the scene notes are played.

Today's scene is the questioning of the senior barrister and MP Jian Aowei played by Zhou Runfa against the newly promoted Hong Kong Police Commissioner Liu Jiehui in the Legislative Council because of a previous operation of the police force played by Forrest Gump.

At the beginning of the camera, Zhou Runfa turned sideways and faced A-Gump, and asked in a teaching tone: "The upper beam is not straight, the lower beam is crooked, the police force has no rules, you call the following [-] How do a hundred policemen enforce the law, Director Liu?"

Gan Jing's sitting posture was in stark contrast to Zhou Runfa's. With his elbows propped on the table and his hands crossed in front of his chest, he said calmly, "Extreme times call for extraordinary methods."

He is the chief of the police department, and he is a big man. It is impossible for him to jump up and refute immediately because of some doubts. Such an act does not conform to his status, and the audience will feel vaguely wrong at a glance.

"It is because those in power have the power to define what is an extraordinary period, so even if it is an extraordinary period, you cannot use extraordinary methods. You are in the Legislative Council now, Director, what are you answering me?" Zhou Runfa's speech speed and There was an obvious jump in tone, especially at the end, when he dropped the note in his hand, he was already reprimanding.

This was at the Legislative Council, and there was a live TV broadcast. Such a tone was quite serious for a police commissioner.
