Chapter 162: Xu Yuan Peony Hall
Chapter 162: Xu Yuan Peony Hall
Angkor's original words say that there is no problem with director Wang Zhengming's directing level, but what he wants to express is very niche, and it is stream-of-consciousness, which is difficult for everyone to understand, and no one watches it, so it becomes a bad movie. If you choose his script, you have to be prepared for the movie that no one will watch. Angkor also said, don't let you take Wang Yingdi as a reference, his participation is brotherhood and has no reference value. ”
"This ......" Zhou Linlang was entangled, "Well, let's put it here first." I'll take a look at the other four scripts first, maybe there's a better one. ”
"Yes, I think so. Zhou Min nodded. Zhou Min and Wu Baiyong's thoughts are opposite, he is not optimistic about Wang Zhengming's script at all. Although the opportunity to cooperate with Wang Yiming is precious, the reputation of the "King of Bad Movies" is too loud, and after taking over Wang Zhengming's play, maybe Zhou Linlang will also have the reputation of bad movies in the future.
Zhou Linlang looked at the remaining four scripts, but after reading Wang Zhengming's script, and then looking at the remaining four, Zhou Linlang couldn't look at it. After all, it is a script that the actor is willing to participate in, which is much better than these popular scripts.
"I think about it, but it's hard to draw conclusions. Zhou Linlang reluctantly read Wang Zhengming's script, she liked this script very much, but the director's shortcomings were real.
Zhou Min nodded, he didn't notice Zhou Linlang's fancy for Wang Zhengming's script at all, and thought that Zhou Linlang didn't know how to choose among the first four scripts. "You think about it more, the above two books can be used at any time, and the books that are going to audition can also be talked to the director, and there is plenty of time. ”
Zhou Linlang did not correct Zhou Min's words, and nodded as a tacit acquiescence. She hasn't thought about it yet, so it's okay for Zhou Min to think so.
Three days later, Zhou Linlang received a notice of successful audition from the crew of "Chasing the Deer", and Zhou Linlang won the role of princess.
"When will you join the group?" asked Zhou Linlang.
"Half a year later. Zhou Min looked at the email, "The current actors of the crew have not yet been found, and I think it is an optimistic estimate that it will be able to start in half a year." Linlang, which of the four scripts did you like last time? They can all be started immediately, and they will be filmed within half a year, just in time to take over the file of "Chasing Deer". ”
"It's not decided yet. Zhou Linlang said, "By the way, Wang Yiming asked me to have dinner tonight, in Xu Yuan." Angkor is busy, let me go with you. ”
"Wang Yiming, why does he want to invite us to dinner?"
"I guess it's for that script. The only intersection between me and Wang Yiming is "Travels", but I am just an ordinary friend in the show, and it is not worth his special trip to invite me to dinner. ”
"If it was for the script directed by Wang Zhengming, Angkor would not want to go down to the past. After all, Angkor and Wang Yiming have been friends for many years, and it is really hard to say if they refuse. Zhou Min frowned, "Wang Yiming's character is good, Angkor is not here, Wang Yiming probably understands what he means, but it is not good to force us to agree." Alas, what a hassle. I knew that I wouldn't ask Wang Yiming to take care of you in the show at that time, but now I owe others a favor, and I can't say anything if I refuse to eat. ”
"I'm very interested in director Wang Zhengming. ”
"You?"
"The script is good, and if the director doesn't have too many problems, I'm willing to act. ”
Zhou Linlang's sudden words surprised Zhou Min.
"But ......"
"The king of bad movies, right?" Zhou Linlang said, "Angkor said that Wang Zhengming's directing level is no problem, but his ideas do not conform to the public's aesthetics." I don't know how his script was before, but this script is a good script in every way, much better than the other four. And Wang Yiming played the leading role, just for the sake of his brother's reputation for many years, and director Wang Zhengming will not mess around. ”
Zhou Min frowned and thought about it, "In this way, this script has many advantages. ”
"The premise is that this Wang Dao doesn't mess around. ”
Xu Garden, Peony Hall.
Xu Yuan is a well-known private restaurant in Su City, and people who are not heads and faces can't set a position at all. As director Wang Zhengming, he doesn't want to book a place, but he also has a younger brother of an actor, and it is easy to book a private room. Sitting in the luxurious peony hall, Wang Zhengming had no intention of enjoying it, but looked anxious.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Wang Yiming said helplessly.
"I'm nervous. Wang Zhengming said.
"What are you nervous about?"
"I'm going to see my heroine soon, of course I'm nervous. ”
Wang Yiming rolled his eyes in his heart and scolded: "Brother, it's not the first time you've been a director, you've seen countless heroines, you're nervous." ”
"What do you know, the previous scripts were all fun, but this time I'm serious!" Wang Zhengming said with a serious face.
Wang Yiming: "......" You say that every time! But it turns out that you are still playing.
"How about this Zhou Linlang you recommended?" asked Wang Zhengming.
"Brother, you've asked a hundred times. Besides, didn't you also look for her works to see, so you know it yourself. Wang Yiming said helplessly.
"Didn't I want to ask your opinion?"
"In a moment people will arrive, you can see for yourself. ”
"Oh, okay. ”
Wang Zhengming nodded and quieted down.
Ten minutes later, Wang Zhengming asked again, "Why haven't people come yet?"
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
"Brother, you said that I saw Zhou Linlang, what should I say first?"
"Say whatever you want?"
"What if she agrees to be the heroine?"
"Then change people. ”
"But I think she is very suitable for this role, the role of Wenqin is like tailor-made for her, and it always feels wrong when she replaces. ”
Wang Yiming sighed helplessly, his brother was too noisy. Perhaps because he has been burdened by the reputation of "King of Bad Movies" over the years, the confident Wang Zhengming has also become nervous and has lost his former confidence.
"Brother, normal heart. You are a director, although your reputation is not very good, but the director must look like a director, Zhou Linlang is not good, there are others. Brother, have you forgotten your confidence when you first made a movie? I have always believed that my brother is the best, and no one else can compare to it, and they should feel honored to be able to star in your movie. ”
Wang Zhengming looked at Wang Yiming in a daze, and was very moved in his heart. Over the years, he has faced doubts and contempt. Even his wife vaguely expressed her concern about him making a movie. No one believes that he can make a good movie, except for Wang Yiming. He not only invested money and became a producer, but also played the leading role himself, and he could support himself wholeheartedly, and only his twin brother Wang Yiming was able to support him wholeheartedly.
With Wang Yiming's encouragement, Wang Zhengming finally regained his confidence as a "famous director". When Zhou Linlang and Zhou Min came, they saw a director with extraordinary bearing. Such a Wang Zhengming and the title of "King of Bad Movies" are really incompatible.
A few people ate, and the waiter sent this year's new tea, and everyone began to chat, chatting and chatting to get down to business, which was also the purpose of Wang Yiming to invite Zhou Linlang over.
"You have read the script of "Taste and Dao". Wang Yiming said, "It was I who recommended you to my brother to play the heroine, and it was I who found Wu Baiyong and asked him to give you the script." ”
"This ......" Zhou Linlang was stunned, not understanding what Wang Yiming meant when he said this, could it be that the other party really took such a fancy to himself?
"I've seen your work and I think you're a perfect fit for the role. ”
"Thank you......" Zhou Linlang nodded: This is not a reason to convince yourself, and there are many people in the circle who can also play this role well.
"I know what you're thinking. To be honest, as long as you change the director, there are a lot of people in this book who are willing to shoot. ”
"Brother~" Wang Zhengming looked at Wang Yiming resentfully.
"Don't worry, brother, no one will change you. Wang Yiming comforted, "As long as this movie is made well, it is not a problem to be shortlisted for the Golden Dragon Award." My brother needs this opportunity, and in the same way, Zhou Linlang, you also need to be nominated for the Golden Dragon Award to make everyone notice you again. ”
"What do you mean?" Zhou Linlang frowned.
"I didn't plan to act in bad movies, even my brother's work. I believe that the movie "Taste and Dao" will definitely be able to shine at next year's Golden Dragon Awards. Wang Yiming said, "I don't know, do you want to believe it." Or whether you are willing to gamble. ”
Zhou Linlang looked at Wang Yiming, who had sincere eyes, and then looked at Wang Zhengming, who was looking forward to it, and finally said cautiously: "When will the movie start?"
Wang Zhengming immediately said: "It's all ready, just send the heroine." As soon as the heroine arrived, we immediately started filming. I specifically contacted the Big Flower Country Chef Association, who will send professionals to direct our films. ”
"I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow night. ”
"If you have anything to think about, you will definitely not regret participating in this work. I think the four awards next year will be ours, and they will definitely be applauded and applauded. I think ......"
Wang Zhengming also wanted to persuade Zhou Linlang more, but Wang Yiming stopped his tirade.
"Brother, Zhou Linlang has her own considerations. Zhou Linlang, we are waiting for your reply. I feel like you'll make the decision that's best for you. Hopefully we can have a chance to cooperate. ”
"If I could, I would very much like to cooperate with Brother Wang. ”
Zhou Linlang went back and thought about it for a day, and finally agreed to Wang Yiming's proposal to join the crew. The opportunity to cooperate with Wang Yiming is precious, with Zhou Linlang's current status, don't even think about it under normal circumstances. And as Wang Yiming said, this script is the best script Zhou Linlang has ever received, and it is definitely applauded and popular after it is filmed, Zhou Linlang really needs a new masterpiece to let everyone know about her return.
Half a month later, Zhou Linlang appeared on the filming site of the crew.
"Brother Wang, Director Wang. ”
"Xiao Zhou is here. Wang Zhengming said, "Come on, come on, let me introduce you." This is our culinary instructor this time, Chef Sun Qiangsun, a national first-class chef, and his apprentice, Chef Li Mingli. The scenes related to cooking in the movie are all directed by two chefs, or used as stand-ins. ”
"Master Sun is good, Master Li is good. Zhou Linlang said.
"Hello, hello. ”
