The final result was determined that Li Bai's starring role was Hong Chen.

Ding Meng left the table angrily, and at the same time, according to the requirements of the investor on his head, the original investment of Qianda Pictures will be 30 million.

However, this investment did not have much impact on the shooting of the whole movie. Zhang Hai is an international director, and "Race for Fire" was last year's box office champion, and he has a lot of money in his hands.

Then, Zhang Hai dialed Ge Chen's phone and informed him of the determination of the role.

"Thank you so much, Director Zhang, and then I'll talk about signing the contract. Ge Chen put down his phone, his eyes full of excitement.

Seeing the appearance of Ge Chen, who had always been calm and capable, Hong Chen smiled proudly.

"Congratulations, great poet, you have successfully won the role of Li Bai. Ge Chen said to Hong Chen, "Then you have a good rest, and I will be responsible for contacting the crew and contacting the team." ”

"Good work. Hong Chen comforted.

Chen Zhiyi was on the side, his eyes full of joy.

Looking at it this way, investing in Hongchen is simply blood gain.

Next, Hong Chen just waited for filming. Because it will take some time for the casting and arrangement of the crew, the official start date has not yet been determined.

I have to say that after having an entertainment company, his work has become much easier, except for acting, he doesn't need to worry about all other chores.

His Weibo is also run by Ge Chen, of course Hong Chen can also use it, he stepped forward to take a look, and his Weibo fans are almost 8 million.

With 8 million fans, it can be regarded as a Weibo big V. He clicked on a recent comment announcing the news that "Li Bai" was confirmed to be the starring role, and found that most of them were girls commenting, all of which were words such as "very handsome", "my husband" and "no, my husband".

At the same time, Ge Chen was also busy with Hong Chen's signing of the contract, and the final signing fee was 20 million. After all, he is the starring role in a blockbuster, and the salary is naturally relatively high.

According to the 4.5 sharing ratio, Hongchen recorded 9 million.

In addition to Huahai's resource investment in Hong Chen and the 8 million annual salary provided for Hong Chen, just this movie, Huahai Entertainment Company has earned a lot.

Wang Yao, the general manager of Huahai Company, was also a little surprised when he learned about this.

The salary of 20 million is almost close to the salary of first-line artists.

Wang Yao didn't expect that Hong Chen would be able to win the starring role of a big production so quickly.

You must know this role, even the top traffic sent by the company has failed.

"Hong Chen, there is a lot of potential. Wang Yao sighed lightly and thought silently.

After Xun Yuan knew about this, he just snorted coldly. Although he has a big relationship and is not very pleasing to the eye when he looks at Hong Chen, he will not be stupid enough to do something to destroy the interests of the company for this.

In the entertainment industry, interests come first.

He and Hong Chen have no entanglement of interests, they are both making money for the company, and they can only be peaceful.

On Hong Chen's side, Ge Chen was busy signing contracts and contacting the team, while Chen Zhiyi was responsible for taking care of Hong Chen's daily chores.

Of course, Chen Zhiyi has not given up on the plan to attack Hong Chen.

Always inadvertently show your good side.

Of course, Hong Chen didn't pay much attention to her, and even frowned and said a few words sometimes.

However, Chen Zhiyi has no problems with her work, and Hong Chen doesn't care, just treat her as an assistant.

.......

After another week, the cast list of the crew "Li Bai" was finally confirmed.

The crew's official Weibo announced the list of actors, which caused a lot of discussion for a while. Especially when I saw that the leading actor was Hong Chen, there were many doubts.

"Isn't it my little brother Ren Tianzhi? ”

"My Feiyu also went to audition, but he didn't get selected?"

"What's the noise, the role was chosen by the director, and I didn't accept the director. ”

"Cut, my Feiyu probably can't watch this bad drama, I wish this bad drama a complete hit!"

"Hong Chen, this actor is not bad. ”

The voices of various discussions on Weibo are continuous, and this is the time to reflect the power of entertainment companies. There is also a water army behind the entertainment company, and it is very high-level, and it is not obvious that it is the "high-level water" of the water army.

Huahai only used a little strength, and then brought news such as "support "Li Bai" and "Hong Chen's little brother come on" to the forefront.

Of course, Hong Chen doesn't pay much attention to these.

He doesn't like to look at public opinion very much.

But whenever it comes to several factions of fans, the tearing situation will be extremely tragic and complicated, and all kinds of anti-skewer brain-dead black fans protect the main body, etc., which makes people's heads big.

Hong Chen got the list of actors and read it carefully.

Zhang Hai's handwriting is really big, the one who plays the emperor is a professional old actor, Gao Lishi is also a well-known supporting role, and Yang Guifei's candidate makes Hong Chen's expression change.

It was the female star I met in the gym that day, Yan Yileng.

The national lover, with white skin and beautiful appearance, has a bit of flattery.

After reading the list of actors, Ge Chen told him that Zhang Hai asked him to come over in the evening to talk about the script.

Hong Chen is particularly concerned about this, after all, the script is the most critical part of this drama, and it is also the foundation of this movie.

What kind of story Zhang Hai wants to film, only Zhang Hai knows now.

In the evening, in the box of the five-star hotel, Zhang Hai invited a few people to dinner.

Including screenwriter Gu Leng, master of Chinese culture Duanmu Hong, Wang Luyi who plays the emperor in the play, and Hong Chen.

There are a total of five people, except for Hong Chen, these are all respected seniors.

Hong Chen looked very polite, he still respected his predecessors very much, especially some old actors who love acting, and he admires them even more.

During the banquet, Zhang Hai went straight to the point.

"Hong Chen, what kind of story do you think you want to shoot Li Bai this time?" Zhang Hai smiled meaningfully, but asked Xiang Hongchen first.

The screenwriter and the master of Chinese culture already know the content of the script, Wang Luyi and Hong Chen are not clear, and when they heard Zhang Hai's question, Wang Luyi also looked at Hong Chen.

Hong Chen thought for a while and replied: "First of all, I think what Director Zhang wants to shoot is definitely not a biography of Li Bai or a documentary as mentioned on the Internet. Li Bai's life is very bumpy, and he has never met talents, and the current audience doesn't like this kind of theme, no matter how good the shooting is, there are not many audiences. ”

In this regard, Zhang Hai laughed and said, "Smart, how did you guess it?"

"I wasn't sure, I looked at the list of actors, but I didn't find an actor who played the elderly Li Bai or the young Li Bai, so I think Director Zhang is not filming Li Bai's life, but a story. ”

"The story of Li Bai after entering Beijing. ”

Zhang Hai nodded, took a sip of wine, and said: "You are right, everyone on the Internet knows that I want to shoot "Li Bai", they think I just want to shoot a biography, but in fact, what I really want to shoot is Datang." ”

Datang!

After listening to Zhang Hai's words, Hong Chen suddenly realized.

This is Zhang Hai's ambition.

He wants to shoot the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty!

To this end, he spent six years of hard work to build a Tang City and carefully polished the script, just to restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Bai just plays a role in promoting perspective.

In other words, the story of the script is not necessarily Li Bai's story.

Thinking of this, Hong Chen understands that the comments on "Li Bai" on the Internet and the predictions about the prospects of this movie are all very wrong.

This movie is definitely not that simple!
