Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "One is that your image fits the bill, the other is that Brother Xuanwu said that you have good acting skills, and the most important thing is the third, that you can speak Chongqing dialect. We need to use many local dialects in this movie. Before leaving When the time comes, I will hand over the script to you, and if you think it is suitable, come over tomorrow and we will formally sign the contract."

Wang Li shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiao, I can sign now."

Xiao Yunhai patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Don't worry, what's yours is yours, and you can't run away. But I want to remind you in advance, because you don't have any achievements that convince me, and you don't have any male protagonists." Experience, so you can’t make me fully trust. Therefore, I will only sign a temporary contract with you. If you can prove on the set that you can support the film with your strength, then this temporary contract will be converted into a formal contract. On the contrary , if you are often NG, and this or that situation always happens on the set, then I am sorry, I can only choose another actor. I hope you can understand, I will not let the whole movie collapse because of one actor's problem of."

Wang Li nodded, and said solemnly: "I understand. I am already grateful that you can find me a chance. If the level is not good, then I can only blame myself for not being good at learning, and I can't blame others. Mr. Xiao, I think Go back home tomorrow and prepare well."

Xiao Yunhai said: "That's your business. By the way, leave me your phone number, and I'll let you go when it starts up."

Wang Li said: "Okay."

Chapter 748 Discussion

The two exchanged numbers, and then came to Xiao Yunhai's study together.

Xiao Yunhai printed out a copy of "Crazy Stone" for him, signed an extra contract, and then went downstairs.

Seeing the document in Wang Li's hands, Li Xuanwu's eyes lit up, a happy smile appeared on his face, he patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Ali, come on."

Wang Li nodded vigorously.

Seeing this situation, several other actors didn't know what happened. They all looked at Wang Li with envious eyes, and said to themselves, "This guy is really lucky."

Half an hour later, Li Xuanwu took everyone away.

Xiao Yunhai invited Wu Zixu and others to come to the study room, turned on the computer, and said, "Teachers, what do you think of the script?"

Wu Zixu smiled and said: "When has Xiao Yunhai's script ever disappointed you? Although I only read a rough outline of this "Crazy Stone", I already understood the meaning. This multi-line narrative approach, we Huaxia has never appeared before. As for "Crazy Racing", it is exactly the same as it, and several clues go hand in hand, which makes people feel very interesting. If the filming is successful, the box office should not be wrong."

Wang Guoan sighed: "The two films have a taste of black humor, and the structure is very ingenious, especially the "Crazy Racing", one link after another, one clue after another, people dare not have the slightest clue. Relax. If it weren't for the fact that there is no suitable role for me, I'm afraid even I want to play it."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Thanks to the two teachers for their compliments, let's talk about actors. I have already handed over the actor Bao Shihong in "Crazy Stone" to Wang Li who came over today, and Hei Pi to Wang Li. Huang Bo, myself will play the thief Mike in it. In "Crazy Racing", Huang Bo will directly play the leading actor Geng Hao. For other roles, we have not yet found a suitable actor. In this way, let's talk about "Crazy Racing" first. The gangster Taoist brother in "Stone" needs to speak Hebei dialect, who do you think is suitable."

Sun Yanjun asked: "Yunhai, do you have any requirements for actors?"

Xiao Yunhai shook his head, and said: "There is no requirement. As long as the image and acting skills are suitable, other things are not considered. Of course, the character must be correct."

Sun Yanjun smiled and said: "Then let me introduce someone, his name is Xie Qun, he is 40 years old this year, from Hebei, he has entered the industry and has been filming for more than 20 years, so he is considered an old actor. I think he is quite suitable."

Wang Guoan said: "Let me tell you one too. His name is Lu Yi. He is 42 years old and speaks an authentic Hebei dialect. He used to be a writer of sketches, and later became a drama actor. He entered our industry five years ago. I have seen His drama skills are very deep, so he should be good too. Old Sun, I'm not trying to compete with you, I just want to give Yunhai a chance to choose."

Sun Yanjun scolded with a smile: "I'm not that stingy. Besides, this Xie Qun, our friendship is not that deep, we just drank once."

Xiao Yunhai wrote down the names of the two, and said, "Teachers, do you still feel good?"

Wu Zixu thought for a while, and said: "When I was filming "Swordsman", the Li Long who played the head of Taishan School was not bad. He can speak several dialects. It should be no problem to play Brother Dao."

Without further ado, Xiao Yunhai quickly added him.

Seeing that everyone had nothing to say about actors, Xiao Yunhai said: "Okay, it's just them. After returning to China, I will find three of them to audition. The next role is Xie Xiaomeng. His image needs to be fatter and more obscene. …”

In this way, Xiao Yunhai and Wu Zixu talked for a full two hours.With the help of Wu Zixu and others, several suitable candidates were found for each role.

As for who to choose, Xiao Yunhai needed to seriously consider it.

After finishing all the roles, Xiao Yunhai stood up and said, "Thank you teachers for your recommendations. You really helped me a lot."

Wu Zixu said: "Yunhai, when are you going to return to China to prepare for the crew?"

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said, ""Inception" will premiere in theaters throughout North America on May [-]th, and there is still more than half a month left. I will first solve the publicity problem of this movie tomorrow morning , when the premiere is approaching, I will make a good publicity."

"Tomorrow afternoon, I will go back to China with everyone, set up the crew as soon as possible, and then find a competent assistant director, let him lead the crew to find a suitable shooting location. The actors of the two films will also be in this period, all Make sure. When the time comes, I'll put the two movies together."

Brother Li Xun said in surprise: "No way. Yunhai, you want to shoot them together, can this work?"

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "What's wrong? The film does not have high requirements for the shooting location, and it can be placed in one place. As for the makeup, photography, production, drama affairs and other departments of the crew, directly set up two departments, let them Each perform their duties, whichever one is fully prepared will be the first to shoot. It would be even better if an atmosphere of healthy competition can be formed. The shooting efficiency must be extremely fast, and the shooting may be completed in a month. "

Wu Zixu felt a little unreliable, and said: "Yunhai, can you do this? Why do I hear a bit of a joke."

Wang Guoan laughed and said, "Director Wu, don't worry. Others may not be able to do it, but Yunhai is definitely fine. In terms of crew management, Yunhai is much better than any other director, including you."

Then, Wang Guoan explained Xiao Yunhai's management method in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" to everyone.

Wu Zixu smiled wryly and said: "This kind of money incentive method is really good. However, only you, the director and investor, can use it. We simple directors are not suitable. At the very least, the producer will not be able to pass the test." .Hehe, in this case, the filming cost will cost a lot more, right?"

Xiao Yunhai shook his head, and said: "Not really. Although it seems that it costs several times more money to do so, in fact, it is not as much as we imagined. Because after the efficiency is improved, the entire film and television drama will be shortened. The filming cycle, just this part of the money, can save a lot. Like last year's "Langya Bang", compared with the filming plan, the crew finished filming a whole month earlier. I asked someone to calculate it, which means it cost more Seventy-eight million."

Sun Yanjun gave a thumbs up and said, "You are awesome. Mr. Ge, did you shoot "If You Are the One" like this?"

Ge Wuyou nodded, and said: "That's right. However, this method has very high requirements for actors. Anyway, I'm exhausted. After filming this scene, I won't allow you to take a breather. The next scene will be the next one." It's started. Fortunately, I still have two brushes, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to hold on at all."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Mr. Ge, you are too modest. Out of all the actors at that time, I think you were the one who relaxed. Hehe, it's late now, let's rest early. Director Wu, don't worry, we have these suitable actors , I’m sure I won’t be able to delay the “Battle of the Red Cliff”.”

Chapter 749 Keiko Ishii Finds Faults

The next day, Xiao Yunhai came to Kerry's office early, handed him the trailer of "Inception", and asked him to help promote it.

Kerry said: "Xiao, I think it's best for you to find a professional film promotion company to do these things. Although it will cost more money, the effect is definitely much stronger than your promotion."

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, nodded, and said: "You are right. Then you can introduce one to me. Money is not a problem. To be honest, I am full of confidence in "Inception", as long as it can be well publicized , I believe the box office will definitely surpass "Jing Wu Heroes" and "Infernal Affairs."

Kerry smiled and said, "Xiao, do you know? The most admirable thing about you is that you are always optimistic and confident. Don't worry, I have a friend with a lot of energy. Not long ago, I just opened a film marketing company, and I am in urgent need of help." The movie made him famous. If we go to him, I believe he will try his best to help us."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."

The two came to a film promotion company not far away called Perfect, and after about half an hour, the two walked out.

Xiao Yunhai had a smile on his face, and seemed very satisfied with the result of the negotiation.

In the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai, Zhang Xiaojing, Lin Hui, Lin Lu, and Wu Zixu all flew back to Huaxia together.

A five-star luxury hotel near Jiangsu TV Station.

Director Qiao Mingkun led the TV station's executives to invite the singers of "Singer's Night" to dinner.

The ratings of the first episode of "Singer's Night" were overwhelming, exceeding [-]%, and the online reviews were also rave, which made Qiao Mingkun very happy.

Taking advantage of the time when all the singers came to the rehearsal, I invited everyone to come out and sit down to show my thanks.

At this time, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon, twelve of the thirteen singers came, only Zhao Wanqing did not arrive.

Qiao Mingkun looked at his watch, and asked Zhu Chengwei beside him, "Cheng Wei, when can Miss Zhao come over?"

Zhu Chengwei smiled and said, "Her agent said that the plane will arrive at the airport at [-]:[-], and it is probably on its way now."

Keiko Ishii, who had always been displeased with Zhao Wanqing, snorted and said, "It's really unreasonable to ask more than a dozen people to wait for her alone."

Hearing Keiko Ishii's words, Cai Pingya frowned, and said, "Miss Ishii, if you are hungry, you can eat first. Wanqing is late because she is attending the Oscar ceremony, and she is not intentional. You say that , isn't it a bit inappropriate."
