Chapter 927: Accident
Jia Xiu, Zeng Yu and others don't quite understand, why does Li Han think that Wang Shao is suitable for playing the role of He Shen?
Moreover, in addition to the image problem, there is also a problem.
Jia Xiu said again: "Mr. Li Han, Wang Shao's acting skills are definitely powerful and old-fashioned. However, in recent years, Wang Shao has almost been in a state of retirement. The last time he acted was almost five years ago. And it's just a cameo in friendship. Now if he wants to play a leading role, or a notorious figure in history like He Shen, he probably won't accept it. ”
Li Han nodded and said, "So I just said, I don't know if they will take over the show?"
Jia Xiu said: "Zhang Wenliang and Zhang Hailin should not be a big problem. But Wang Shao estimated that he would not take it. ”
Li Han said: "Where is Wang Shao now?
Jia Xiu said: "Wang Shao has hardly appeared in the media in recent years, and I heard that he has returned to his hometown to live. If you want to get in touch, there should be a way to get in touch. ”
Li Han nodded and said, "Then trouble Director Jia to find a way to contact Wang Shao, and then send him an invitation to see how he responds?"
Jia Xiu said: "Okay, leave it to me." Not a big problem. ”
Li Han said: "It's hard work. ”
Jia Xiu smiled: "Mr. Li Han is too polite. ”
Then, Jia Xiu did not delay, and directly began to find a way to contact Wang Shao.
Although Jia Xiu is not a big director like Jing Wenbo, he also has a certain degree of popularity, and his connections in the entertainment industry are certainly not bad.
After a few phone calls, I have already obtained Wang Shao's mobile phone number, and it has been determined that Wang Shao does live in his hometown.
"Would you like to invite Wang Shao now?" Jia Xiu asked.
Li Han nodded and said, "Just now." ”
Jia Xiu nodded and dialed Wang Shao's phone.
After a few rings, the phone was connected.
"Hello!, who?"
Jia Xiu said: "Teacher Wang Shao? I am Jia Xiu. Sorry to bother you. ”
"It turned out to be Director Jia. Jia Dao is serious. I don't know if Director Jia called me ......"
"That's the case, Teacher Wang Shao......" Jia Xiu said the matter.
On the phone, Wang Shao was very surprised and said: "I have also heard that Mr. Li Han is going to shoot "Iron Tooth and Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan". It's just that I really didn't expect that you would invite me to play the role of He Shen. My character image is very different from the real character image of He Shen in history, right?"
Jia Xiu didn't know how to take this, and he didn't expect Li Han to invite Wang Shao!
glanced at Li Han, Li Han just smiled, and Jia Xiu had to say: "We are a fictional story, does the character image match the character image of real people in history? We just think that Mr. Wang Shao is very suitable for the role of He Shen. ”
Wang Shao said: "I am very honored. Thank you, Director Jia, and thank you Mr. Li Han. However, Director Jia should know that I don't plan to film anymore. Besides, it's still such a role as He Shen. Don't hide it from Director Jia, I can't quite accept playing such a role as He Shen. I'm so sorry!"
"That's a real pity. Sorry to disturb Mr. Wang Shao. Jia Xiu said.
After ending the call, Jia Xiu said: "Mr. Li Han, it's the same as what we analyzed before. Two reasons made Wang Shao reluctant to accept our invitation. ”
Li Han nodded and said, "Since that's the case." Let's take a look at the other suitable actors. In addition, continue to send invitations to Zhang Wenliang and Zhang Hailin. ”
Jia Xiu said: "The two of them shouldn't be a big problem. ”
......
"Oh, invite me to play the role of Ji Xiaolan?" Zhang Wenliang was also a little surprised after receiving Jia Xiu's call.
Li Han's decision to shoot "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan" caused a stir in the outside world and the entertainment industry.
Of course, Zhang Wenliang also knows.
Not only that, but he also talked about this matter with some well-connected actors in the circle.
Everyone thinks that it is impossible for Li Han not to know that this kind of subject matter is very unpopular, but he still wants to shoot.
This is either because Li Han is a little too inflated and arrogant, or because Li Han has absolute self-confidence.
Zhang Wenliang believes that the reason should be the latter.
Of course, Li Han's confidence alone does not mean that the final drama will definitely be popular.
But it shouldn't be too much.
Therefore, Zhang Wenliang's evaluation of the market prospect of "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan" is that the possibility of a fire is small, and the possibility of hitting the street is also small, and the probability is that it will barely be able to get by.
Zhang Wenliang is completely looking at the whole incident and evaluating it with the mentality of a bystander.
He really didn't expect Jia Xiu to call him and invite him to play the role of Ji Xiaolan.
He was very surprised, he was not prepared at all, and he didn't know for a moment whether he should refuse or accept?
I can only say that I need to think about it.
Ji Xiaolan?
For the character of Ji Xiaolan, Zhang Wenliang only admires him a little for being a good official, and he has no special feelings for the others.
Now that he wants to play such a role, Zhang Wenliang is suddenly a little excited.
The reason is because Ji Xiaolan is a good official who will go down in history.
Anyway, I always feel a little excited to learn that a crew invited me to play such a famous character in history.
But this is not enough to be a reason for Zhang Wenliang to accept the invitation.
All other aspects still need to be taken into account.
If the script was not written by Li Han, Zhang Wenliang would definitely refuse directly.
Now that the script is from Li Han's hand, Zhang Wenliang wants to refuse politely, but he is a little reluctant.
What if it becomes a hit?
Although he is already a famous star actor and is still known as an old drama bone, he also wants to make more fire dramas.
After careful consideration, Zhang Wenliang decided to go to the script first to read the script before speaking.
Although he believes that the script created by Li Han himself will not be bad, he still has to see it with his own eyes to rest assured.
If the script is good enough, he accepts the invitation and auditions.
......
After Zhang Hailin received Jia Xiu's invitation, his reaction was similar to Zhang Wenliang's.
They also didn't expect that the crew of "Iron Tooth and Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan" would invite him to play the role of Emperor Qianlong.
He has played the role of emperor before, but he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and he has never played the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
Regarding the evaluation of the market prospect of the drama "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan", Zhang Hailin also believes that the possibility of a fire is unlikely, but it should not hit the street.
After all, this is a script created by Li Han himself, even if the subject matter is unpopular, it will definitely attract many people to watch it.
The final ratings should be passable.
So, do you want to accept the invitation?
After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Hailin made the same decision as Zhang Wenliang, first go to Legendary Film and Television to read the script.
