Chapter 313 [Small cost and big revenge]

Under Kuang Jie's repeated request, Kuang's mother did not hesitate any longer. After all, Kuang Jie starred in "The Melting Pot" when she was younger. The scale of that play was obviously bigger. At that time, Kuang Jie was only ten years old. Now Kuang Jie Jie is already 14 years old, exactly the age of the movie heroine Hai Li.

In this way, Kuang Jie, the eldest sister of the child star world and Bao Shiyi's backer, starred in the heroine of "Hard Fruit Candy".

As Bao Shiyi said, Kuang Jie's acting skills are very good. The acting skills in the previous "The Melting Pot" were amazing. Some fans and netizens once directly commented that the three children in "The Melting Pot" had the best acting skills.

Bao Shishi was shortlisted for Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Film Awards, and then because of missing the award, and because of a GIF animation that detonated the Internet, Kuang Jie was no less nominated for Best Supporting Actress, even though neither of them won the award. , but there is no doubt about the acting skills of the two young actors.

Once the heroine of the movie is decided, the next step is to find an actor to play the role of the leading actor Zhou Jie.

What Bao Shiyi thought of at first was Lin Hao, the male protagonist who had worked with in "The Melting Pot" before.

Lin Hao's acting skills are naturally not bad, otherwise he wouldn't have been shortlisted for the best actor with the play "The Melting Pot", although he was also running with him in the end.But being shortlisted is enough to prove that Lin Hao's acting skills are not bad.

……

Zeng Sheng contacted Lin Hao on behalf of Bao Shiyi. After sending the script of "Hard Fruit Candy", Lin Hao hesitated again and again, but still rejected the play.

The rejection was obviously not because the script was bad, on the contrary the script was good, bad character.

Obviously, playing Zhou Jie, a scumbag who sexually abuses girls, has a bad influence on the character after that, and Lin Hao had already starred in "The Melting Pot" before that.

Because "Hard Candy" is also a movie about the sexual assault of minors, it is conceivable that it will cause a lot of repercussions after it is released, but Lin Hao does not need to act in such a theme again, although the role has already Quite different, but there's enough of a Melting Pot.

The characters are attractive enough, but there are certain risks.

For this reason, Bao Shiyi had to find another actor. Fortunately, although Bao Shiyi did not have any complicated network of contacts in the circle, there was a well-known director, Zeng Sheng, as the producer, and Bao Shiyi wrote it himself. story.

Not to mention the novels written by Bao Shiyi before, just watching "Death is Coming", which is now a box office hit, is enough to tempt many people.

Bao Shiyi's production must be a high-quality product. Although this is Bao Shiyi's first time as a director, directing and shooting a movie, but with the great master Bao Shiyi and director Zeng Sheng as the producer, he has all the banners he should have. up.

The production cost of this "Hard Fruit Candy" is not high, and Bao Shiyi is a rich man himself, so he doesn't need to find others to invest in it, he can do it himself.

Although the cost is small, Bao Shiyi has a very big revenge for this movie.

Although there is no tragedy in the movie at the end, I believe some people will be terrified after watching the plot in it, and the fear value will not be less.

……

Because Bao Shiyi had never made a movie before, Zeng Shengye invested and participated in the investment of this "Hard Fruit Candy", and naturally Tianyang Film and Television Company helped solve many of them.

For example, most of the crew members are acquaintances who have cooperated in "The Melting Pot" before.

Tianyang Film and Television Company has contacted several suitable actors for Bao Shiyi. There are many actors who are interested in "Hard Candy" here, but because of Bao Shiyi, a wealthy investor, Now, there is no such thing as investors bringing capital into the group.

Naturally, there were no actresses, and male actors performed unspoken rules in front of Bao Shiyi.

This made the eldest sister, Da Kuangjie, sigh, as if she was a little regretful.

"Why are you downcast? It seems that there are no unspoken rules, and I insist on making unspoken rules for you."

Kuang Jie herself has a lively temper. After being in the circle for a long time, Po said nonchalantly: "It's not hard for me to have the opportunity to unwittingly rule others. I still want to suppress some people."

……

Because the male and female protagonists of the movie are all settled, this small crew is almost settled. There are only two main characters and one main scene. It can be said that it is a relatively simple and shabby crew. MV and short film.

Because the most important character in the movie is Haili, and there are a lot of lines. Now Kuang Jie has been memorizing the lines carefully, preparing for the filming of the next movie.

"Eleven, why is the name of this movie "Hard Candy"?"

"Internet slang, Hard-Candy, underage girls."

Kuang Jie curled her lips, raised her eyelids, and said, "Hey, you know so much."

"If you have little knowledge, just say you have little knowledge."

……

"Speaking of which, I didn't expect Liang Zirui to agree to act in this play."

A well-known actor in Liang Zirui's circle, although not a first-line actor, his acting skills and popularity are not bad.

In fact, although Bao Shiyi is very famous and very popular, it is his first time directing and shooting a film, so he doesn't know much about it. It might be a mistake to agree to act casually.

Kuang Jie curled her lips and said, "What's the matter, you don't know, he agreed to act only after hearing that Lin Hao refused to act in this play."

"The role of Zhou Jie in this play and the role I want to play are also very, very good. Liang Zirui and Lin Hao have never been able to deal with each other. After he read the script, it is obvious that he wants to win the award with this role, so he can step on Lin Hao. Hao is in charge."

Bao Shiyi frowned slightly, and was about to ask something when he heard Kuang Jie say old-fashionedly: "But it depends on how well Liang Zirui's performance is. If he really wins the prize in the end, what will be written in the online news?" Use the role that Lin Hao gave up to take the actor! Once this news is thrown out, Lin Hao will be stepped on, of course, if the movie ends up being a smash, then it will be another story."

Bao Shiyi felt that he hadn't set foot in this complicated circle for a long time, and he had forgotten the two experiences he wrote down in the small notebook he came in at the beginning. Should he reopen the dusty notebook now and write it down.

……

"He thinks he will definitely win the award?"

Kuang Jie said indifferently: "Winning an award may not be guaranteed, but as long as you, the director, don't mess around with a script like this, the actors have a lot of room to play. If there is no accident, everything will go smoothly, and you should be shortlisted."

"I think so too, otherwise why do you think I agreed to you to act in this movie?"

Bao Shiyi's expression instantly turned awkward, and he choked on Kuang Jie's words.

He thought that Kuang Jie's agreement to appear in this movie was really to support him, but it turned out that the more important reason was to be shortlisted and win the award.

Kuang Jie looked at Bao Shiyi's expression, rolled her eyes, and said, "Don't be too sad, there are naturally reasons for you, and you are also my little brother, so naturally I want to cheer you up."

"However, take it easy, I told you a long time ago, the water in the circle is very deep."
