Dressed as a stone lion at the door of a rival's house

The crew of "Where Are There Demons" has Zhang Chaosheng staring at him, and Huo Yan walks away with ease.However, he really didn't leave the crew this time because he wanted to grow eighteen.

Chang Shiba wants to achieve some results by himself, Huo Yan is really not suitable for activities around him all the time, otherwise he will be publicized by media reporters, coupled with some people's deliberate guidance, and the achievements of Chang Shiba in the future will be achieved in minutes. Well, if you can't help him up, you can push it on Huo Yan's head.

If there is achievement, then it's better, it is said that it is all relying on Huo Yan's resources, if it can't be supported, it should be said that it is useless to grow eighteen.

Huo Yan has been in the circle for so many years, so he still has some sense of propriety.He himself is not afraid, but he doesn't want to be troubled when he grows eighteen.

After leaving the group, Huo Yan went directly to the airport, took the passport and plane ticket sent by Xiaomao, and boarded the plane to the United States.Hurry up to rest on the plane, get off the plane, and go to Lai Si Film and Television immediately before taking a breath.

"Sorry, I'm late." Huo Yan was led to the conference room.The inside was already full of people, everyone looked down at their script, and no one spoke for a while, when Huo Yan went in, they happened to look at it at the same time.

"Huo?"

Seeing that it was Huo Yan, Ben Cook hurriedly stood up and went over to give him a big hug. By the way, he turned his head and said to director Tom Simpson: "If you said earlier that the male lead was reserved for Huo Yan, I would have taken the script earlier gone."

Director Simpson laughed and said, "If I knew you knew Huo, I would have him call you personally to invite you!" He also stood up and hugged Huo Yan.

Ben Cook had just been nominated for Best Actor at the Oscars recently. Although he failed to win the award in the end, he was in the limelight. After all, he was about the same age as Huo Yan, and he was under 30 years old.Huo Yan's family paid a lot of money, and by the way, he told him that the director was invited by Simpson.

Not to mention Tom Simpson. Although he hasn't released a movie for many years, he not only has the best director of the Oscars but also the best screenwriter in his hands.If it weren't for the sake of friendship with Huo Yan's parents, of course the investment and money were enough, and Huo Yan's acting skills were really good, Simpson would never agree.

"This Huo Yan is a Chinese actor." Simpson introduced Huo Yan to the crew present.

Today is mainly director Simpson, a producer, and actress Kate Smith. She is also a powerful faction in the American film industry, but she has not won an award for many years. She has saved a lot of nominations, and there is Ben and Huo Yan.The rest are some crew members.

After introducing each other, Huo Yan sat down and got involved in discussing the script—today we mainly discussed the crew.It is Simpson's habit to discuss clearly with the actors and crew before shooting the final version of the script to clarify any problems.

Because Huo Yan got the script "Rebirth" before, he is very familiar with the script and can directly join the discussion.

"Rebirth" is about the hero Mori who dies accidentally, wakes up and finds himself reborn in a place where everyone lives in this place, and everyone knows magic.Sen just started pretending that he knew nothing, so he was always looked down upon and bullied.Then another day, the locals got into an argument with Sen, and Sen used magic to chop off the man's limbs.When Sen left and returned to the room, he saw two people gathered around to eat the dead.

Then, there is no more.Yes, this is a script that hasn't been finished yet, and the director Simpson, who is also a part-time screenwriter, asked Huo Yan enthusiastically: "How is it?"

Huo Yan watched the script for half a month, and seeing Simpson's expectant face, he nodded and said: "The idea is good, but the concept is not enough. If you follow the way you disclosed before, it will be the hero Sen. In the story of Xiaobai growing into a superhero, I feel that something is missing."

"It's enough to be a commercial film as a routine, but it's definitely not enough to win awards." Huo Yan analyzed, "The issues you mentioned to explore human nature are all presented by small supporting roles. I don't think it's enough, it's too piecemeal. "

Huo Yan mentioned the follow-up development and the use of supporting roles to embody human nature. Before he came, during the discussion of the crew, Simpson also said that everyone basically had the same opinion as Huo Yan.

Simpson said: "Yes, we also feel the same way at the meeting here. Since everyone has the same idea, let's discuss it. Do you have any good development next?"

This is the characteristic of Simpson's films. There is no complete script before shooting, and the outline is finalized before shooting, and it can be supplemented and improved at any time during the shooting process, which is very expensive.This is also the reason why he hasn't made a movie for many years. Although he can make money, he also burns money.

The heroine Kate Smith clicked on the script and said: "Actually, I think it is completely possible to not have a heroine. The development of this story has nothing to do with me as a heroine. Forcibly adding a heroine will make the story seem awkward."

She came to win the award in the name of Simpson. Come to see it today, there is Huo Yan—two male leads, and with this structure, he is definitely not enough to be a heroine. Don't think about winning the award, so After analysis, she was somewhat unwilling and wanted to reject the play.

"No." Simpson waved his hand, "If you want to consider the male market who don't like hero movies, a heroine is indispensable."

Ben said: "I don't have any problems here, but since you said two male leads, now that I'm sure I'll play Sen, who should Huo play? This has to be balanced."

He affirmed Huo's acting skills, and he didn't want him to end up playing a weird oriental role like many Chinese actors who came to the United States.

Anyway, the producer fully trusts Simpson, and he can do whatever he wants, and he spread his hands to indicate that you can discuss it.Costume styling, shooting and post-production, etc. that other crew members were worried about were temporarily skipped, after all, the script has not yet come out.Inviting them to come and discuss together is also to say that they can have a rough idea first, and when the script is fully finalized, they will participate, and it will be easier to handle difficulties or ideas.

Huo Yan glanced at the script first, then looked at Simpson and said, "Director Simpson, I made it clear that if it is a supporting role for some oriental characters, I would rather not take part in it. Your current script is third-rate, let alone an Oscar. The movies are all far-fetched. And it was originally decided to be the male lead, so this Sen must be played by Ben, right?"

You can tell just by looking at the name.

Simpson wanted to laugh, but Huo Yan looked serious, so he nodded with guilt.To be honest, Huo Yan is not well-known in the United States at all, and he can only take the lead when it comes to box office. He doesn't think there is a problem with this decision.

"Actually, I think it's better for me to act as Sen." Huo Yan casually threw the script on the table and leaned back in his chair, confident. The script in front of him was crumpled and there were many notes on it. It was him The new things I added, as well as my views on the adjustment of the entire script.

Simpson and Ben remained calm, but did not answer.

Huo Yan didn't care either, smiled and said: "You have seen a lot of American superheroes, why don't you look at superheroes with oriental faces..." He hammered his chest, "I have an oriental physique. , There are two trends, either the audience thinks that I cannot be a superhero, or the audience thinks that I am a mysterious Chinese kung fu. Then when I appear, I am a Xiaobai who is rejected by everyone, and I don’t know how to use mysterious magic... What do you think?"
