Hit [Rebirth]

Chapter 104

The next day the crew officially started filming, Li Zhen did not change clothes and make up as before when he arrived on the set.

The make-up artist who came early urged Li Zhen several times, but he was indifferent.

After finally waiting for Cheng Lu to come, I found him alone.

"Director Cheng, have you read yesterday's script?"

As the director, Cheng Lu didn't read the script. He didn't sleep well last night because of the script. Today Li Zhen just said this, and he already guessed what Li Zhen meant.

"I see." Cheng Lu still sighed, "The scriptwriter's modification is a bit inappropriate."

Seeing Cheng Lu's expression, Li Zhen felt very awkward.

It is obvious that this script is not a bit inappropriate anymore, it has been completely changed to another story, Cheng Lu must know this, but he seems to have no intention of really doing anything in his helpless tone.

"If Director Cheng shoots the script according to this, I'm sorry that I can't make it. As a Chinese, I personally think it's very inappropriate for foreign screenwriters to vilify the real history."

Li Zhen's words were very sharp, and Cheng Lu's heart was also touched.As a Chinese director, his rights are not mentioned, but as a Chinese, the most basic patriotism is still there.

"I also think it's not very good. Let's discuss it with the screenwriter. Xiao Li, please don't be impulsive. Let's discuss it later."

With these unreliable things happening one after another, Li Zhen didn't want to discuss it any more, and he could tell that the investor didn't really intend to film your Huaguo's history at all.

"Director Cheng, I don't think..."

Cheng Lu quickly stopped Li Zhen's next words.

"Even if Xiao Li is giving me face, let me discuss it first, okay?"

The helplessness and pleading in Cheng Lu's eyes were too obvious, Li Zhen didn't speak anymore, but the doubts in his heart were getting bigger and bigger.

What happened to Cheng Lu?

The screenwriter came with Sakurai, who played the foreign general Lu Zejun, and both of them came very late.

"Why hasn't Mr. Li put on makeup and changed clothes yet?"

When Sakurai arrived, he saw Li Zhen who was still in casual clothes and asked with a smile in Japanese.

The interpreter was translating with Cheng Lu and the screenwriter, so Li Zhen didn't know what he said, and now he was angry, thinking that this person would play the role of General App who saved Cai Hong, Li Zhen didn't want to talk to him, so He could only smile politely and did not answer the question.

"This script does not conform to the history of our country, so we can't make it." Cheng Lu negotiated with the screenwriter again.

After listening to Cheng Lu's words, the screenwriter seemed incredulous, "This is obviously very good, I think it's very exciting, and Mr. Morita thinks it's good too."

You are a fucking islander, of course you think it’s good! !

Cheng Lu complained wildly in his heart, but he could only hold back his temper and continued, "But the audience in our country cannot accept historical figures being adapted like this."

"No, don't you Hua people like this kind of love triangle?"

Cheng Lu was about to refute, but someone was one step faster than him.

"I'm sorry Mr. Matsui, I think you may have some misunderstandings about the history of Huaguo and the taste of Chinese audiences." Li Zhen looked directly at the screenwriter Matsui with a very serious expression.

"Huaguo has a history of 5000 years, and every person in Huaguo is proud of such a long history and profound culture. Therefore..."

"Hua people do not allow historical figures to be desecrated like this."

Matsui looked at the young man in front of him.

"I don't even like watching love triangles that distort history!"

In his image before, this person was just like other stars produced by the assembly line. He became popular all because of his face and company packaging, and he followed the route of the creamy niche.

But at this moment, being looked at by this person who was much younger than him, the aura of the other party was so strong that he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.The other party said such flesh and blood words in such a serious way, which made him feel the pride and dignity of the Chinese people who would not retreat or compromise in front of the country, and it also made him understand that he could not think about this period of history at all. .

"Mr. Li... I think there may be some misunderstandings, but I didn't mean to blaspheme the history of China."

Matsui's attitude has undergone a 180-degree change, from the casual contempt for Cheng Lu at the beginning, to the nervous stuttering now.

"Don't be angry. After all, I am a foreigner. I may have misunderstood this history. If you are not satisfied with the script, we can change it."

Matsui also realized that his words were inappropriate, and he quickly apologized for accidentally speaking what was in his heart.

However, Li Zhen had already seen through this man's tricks and ignored him at all.

"As a screenwriter, understanding history is the most basic thing, but it's a pity that you didn't do this. Instead, you slandered the tastes of Hua Guo people. As a Hua Guo actor, I can't feel your sincerity. I'm sorry if you didn't bring it with you at the beginning If you shoot with sincerity, then this cooperation is destined to be unhappy, and there is no need to continue."

What Li Zhen said was obvious, and Matsui immediately panicked when he heard it, "What... what do you mean!"

Li Zhen is very important to the crew. Morita went to great lengths to allow Cheng Lu to invite Li Zhen because of his influence in China and island countries.

It is not clear that Li Zhen is not from the island country. After the crew announced his scandal with Da Dao and hyped "Peerless Dynasty", it aroused strong repercussions in the island country. Fans are looking forward to seeing this movie as soon as possible. As far as co-productions are concerned, this is a very good phenomenon.

And the box office of all Li Zhen's previous films was also very good. Morita's investment this time is so forthright because the basic market of this film will start from 5 million.

In a sense, this movie is to use Li Zhen's popularity to open up the Chinese market, and then to please the fans of Li Zhen in the island country.

So now because Li Zhen is not filming the script, Matsui is so nervous that he hasten to stabilize Li Zhen.

However, Li Zhen was so easy to fool, he had already been dissatisfied with the crew, he directly contacted Yu Wen and asked him to handle the matter.

Yu Wen didn't blame Li Zhen after learning about this incident, but felt that he did a very good job.

The scandal made him very upset with these foreigners, and now he is so shameless, so he is not polite.

The islanders probably had never encountered such a bloody person as Li Zhen, so they panicked and asked Mr. Morita for help.

Morita would have to wait until night at the earliest to come to the island country, so the production team of the island country could only ask Cheng Lu for help again, hoping that he would keep Li Zhen steady.

Before Li Zhen left the crew, Cheng Lu found him again.

Cheng Lu looked haggard than before.

"Director Cheng..."

Li Zhen invited Cheng Lu to sit down, "I know what you're going to say, but...don't try to persuade me, even if the script is changed, I won't be able to continue filming."

Cheng Lu took the tea Li Zhen made for him and shook his head, "I'm not here to persuade you tonight, to be honest, I also think those foreigners are very upset."

"As a Chinese, I feel that if this movie is made, I will be like a traitor..."

Cheng Lu said these words slowly, with a heavy tone in his tone.

"Is there any wine, Zhen? I want to drink some."

Li Zhen shook his head, "Only water."

"Forget it, I'll treat this cup of tea as a bar." After finishing speaking, Cheng Lu took a sip and said, "Now that I'm drunk, you can treat me as drunk. of."

"Actually... what you said about Matsui today can relieve my anger. They dare to slander our country like this. Don't say it. Although history has passed, people shouldn't be angry with people today, but It makes me sick to see that they invaded our country and still don’t recognize it.”

Cheng Lu squinted his eyes and looked upside down, but he really seemed to be drunk.

"I admire your courage, you are young and bloody!" He gave Li Zhen a thumbs up.

He stared fixedly at Li Zhen, then turned his head, covered his eyes with his hands and said in a low voice, "But... I'm different from you, I have to pay if I don't shoot, I... didn't So much money..."

The reason why Cheng Lu is so aggrieved and listens to Morita's words is because he was tricked by someone to go to the island country to gamble with someone before, and he owed a lot of debt.And one of his creditors is Morita, and now Morita wants to make a movie to launder money, dare he say no?

Li Zhen was taken aback after hearing Cheng Lu's words.

He didn't know why Cheng Lu said these words to him suddenly, but seeing his expression, Li Zhen had already vaguely guessed something...

Cheng Lu wiped his face and wiped away the tears of regret.

"You can leave if you don't want to shoot, and I won't force you, young man, you are really good, don't be dragged down by this film."

Cheng Lu patted Li Zhen on the shoulder and got up to leave.

"Director Cheng..."

Li Zhen looked at the opponent's back and called to him.

"Don't shoot, there are always other ways to solve it."

Cheng Lu froze on the spot and didn't speak.

Perhaps it was Li Zhen's words that touched him, and perhaps he was thinking about various possibilities.

But in the end he still didn't turn around, just sighed and shook his head.

The next day, Li Zhen directly quit the film crew and prepared to go back to City B. Unexpectedly, Morita came to the film crew overnight and stopped Li Zhen.

Li Zhen had directly rejected Morita's continued negotiation on the phone before, but the other party was very good at stalking, his skin was thicker than a city wall, so he had to talk, and Li Zhen wouldn't allow it if he didn't talk about it today. Walking posture.

"Mr. Li, please give me a reason why you want to quit the film crew. Don't Chinese people pay attention to credibility since ancient times? Are you going to be such a person without integrity? If the media reports that Mr. Li is not satisfied with your request, you will quit the film crew. The disclosure of this matter should not be a good thing for you, I hope you will think about it carefully."

Morita sat across from Li Zhen, with a very uncomfortable smile on his face, and tried to threaten Li Zhen as soon as he came.

Li Zhen was not afraid of him. He lowered his head and took a leisurely sip of tea before answering, "Before talking about credibility, Mr. Morita, did you do it?"

Li Zhen had a smile on his lips, fearless.

Seeing that Li Zhen was not intimidated, Morita immediately changed his strategy, "If you are not satisfied with the character Sakurai, we don't have to. If the screenwriter can't do it, just change it."

Li Zhen didn't seem to hear Morita's words, but brought up another matter.

"I remember yesterday that you said that you should discuss everything with us first, but today you changed the script without authorization. Since you don't keep your promises, there is no need for us to talk about it."

When Morita saw that Li Zhen still refused to accept, he immediately turned dark.

"Being polite to you is giving you face."

"Then thank you for thinking of me so well."

Morita snorted coldly, his family has a gangster background, and the actors who invested in the past were not disobedient, but now he encountered Li Zhen as a thorn, and he was very angry.

Seeing that he couldn't get along with Li Zhen, he didn't bother to give Li Zhen a good face, and turned his face directly, "Since Mr. Li is unwilling to cooperate, then I won't force it, but since you haven't done what I asked you to do, then you can do it." Please pay the remuneration and liquidated damages before leaving."

"Okay, I'll transfer money to you."

The salary is 1000 yuan and liquidated damages are 2000 million yuan, a total of [-] million yuan, which is the pocket money his father gave him last time. Li Zhen still has this little money.

Morita, however, seemed dissatisfied.

"Give me the cash and ask for it today."

Hearing Morita's request, Li Zhen turned cold.

He was ready to tear up with Morita before, but he didn't expect that the other party would be so shameless and deliberately embarrass him.

2000 million in cash is not a small sum. If you go to the bank to withdraw money, you have to call in advance, so how can you take it out immediately.

Morita made this request, obviously to disgust him.

Li Zhen stared at Morita for a few minutes, then said coldly, "Morita is deliberately embarrassing me now."

Unexpectedly, Morita laughed instead, "Mr. Li is such a dishonest person, I'm worried that you will backtrack in the future."

"We can go through the legal process."

"I don't believe in Hua's laws."

Morita not only carried private affairs in the drama, but also dissed Huaguo in real life, which disgusted Li Zhen.

Sure enough, this person had no good intentions when he made this movie.

The atmosphere in the room was very tense, Li Zhen was blocked by Morita and his subordinates and couldn't get out, both of them were deadlocked.

Morita shut Li Zhen for a while, then smiled again, "Mr. Li, do you want to think about it again?"

Just as Morita finished speaking, Li Zhen's cell phone rang.

It was Ming Zhonglun calling.

"You didn't shoot that Morita scene?" Ming Zhonglun's relaxed voice came from the phone.

Li Zhen didn't have any doubts about how Ming Zhonglun knew. After all, his boss was Zhang Haohan, and Zhang Haohan was his brother. Naturally, he would know about this immediately.

"Yes." Because Morita was present, Li Zhen didn't say much.

"Did you come back?"

"not yet."

"That's right, I'm coming to find you."

Li Zhen hesitated for a while after hearing Ming Zhonglun's transformation, but never answered.

Ming Zhonglun is worthy of being the elder brother who grew up wearing a pair of pants with Li Zhen. He immediately sensed that there was a problem, and his voice changed from the relaxed tone just now to tense, "What? Isn't it convenient to meet now?"

"Not really." Li Zhen glanced at Morita, "Now Mr. Morita is looking for me to talk about going back to filming."

There was no response on the phone, and then Zhong Lun said with a chuckle, "That's just right, tell me the location, and I'll be right over."

"Tomorrow will be fine."

"Tell me where, right now!"

When Ming Zhonglun got angry, his temper was very irritable.

Li Zhen probably guessed what Ming Zhonglun wanted to do, but he just said the location.

Before hanging up the phone, Ming Zhonglun asked one last question, "Did he threaten you?"

Li Zhen didn't speak, just hung up the phone.

Morita, who had been staring at Li Zhen from the side, showed a sinister smile, "What is Mr. Li planning to do?"

Li Zhen sat down calmly and sipped his tea with his head down, "It's nothing to do, just ask someone to bring you some money."

Ten minutes later, the door of the room where Li Zhen and Morita stayed was kicked open by someone domineering.

The author has something to say: Brother Ming: After waiting for a hundred chapters, it's finally time for me to play a role.

Zhenzhen: Call Mingge! ! ! !
