Zhihu has a question: The buddies who used to mix together are developed, and if they don't pull me, should I blame him?

The highest praise is: Helping you is love, not helping you is your duty!

It makes sense, but many people are very angry: You are developed, why don't you help me?

You can ask Ma Yun this question, doesn't it mean that the first rich will help the latter get rich and achieve common prosperity...

You have 42 billion US dollars, 1.3 billion people in China, give each of us 100 million, and we all have 40.7 billion US dollars, and you are still the richest man!

Common prosperity will be achieved in one day!

People are not happy, what can you do?

Back to the topic, Ji Chen's mentality is actually quite normal, back then, Lu Xiaoran and they mixed together every day, and they almost completed the feat of releasing a girl together...

What now?

Waiting for idle changes but old people's hearts, the so-called things are people, probably so.

But on Lu Xiaoran, his thoughts are like this: he and Ji Chen are actually taking the route of being a small student, which means that Ji Chen's suitable role is also very suitable!

Why should you take yourself out and make way for him?

But if it is some small supporting roles, Ji Chen may not be willing to act, and it will be difficult to say it, so "Border Storm" did not call him, and "Snow Leopard" did not call him...

If he is the person of the orange image, then it is okay to say, Lu Xiaoran doesn't mind praising him...

But he's not, he's a signed artist under China Television Media...

Belong to competitors.

The identity has changed...

……

At Lu Xiaoran's house, Xiao Lu Zi made tea for Lao Cao, and then took out the book of "Rescue Mr. Wu": "Freshly baked, except for Mr. Shuping and me, you are the first batch of readers!"

"Look at the script, who you like, pick yourself!"

"Is it the work based on the kidnapping of Wu Ruofu?" asked Lao Cao as he spread out the script.

“… You... How do you know? I didn't announce it!"

Lu Xiaoran was stunned...

The project "Rescue Mr. Wu", from beginning to end, he is very secretive, after all, he is ready to invite Andy Lau, such a big thing, spread out...

It's nothing to pass it on, but it's not fun to pretend to be forced!

What do you think, at the movie press conference, Andy Lau suddenly appeared, and I was excited when I thought about it...

It must be said: In this era, Andy Lau and Liang Chao have a basic box office for that group of people, as long as it is a good script, it is very likely that the box office will break 100 million, of course, their upper limit is very low, and when the mainland actors get up, they will have a box office of one billion or two billion at every turn...

Their basic plate is not enough!

Lao Cao looked like an idiot: "Do you know how many people are staring at you? Ji Chen also asked you if you have a role suitable for him!"

Ji Chen?

Where did he get the message?

"How does Ji Chen know what movie I'm going to make?

“… If you want to make this movie, you must agree to the Beijing public security, and you will know if you inquire a little. ”

"Am I that eye-catching? I'm a novice director, although the box office is a little higher and the reputation is good, I'm just a novice!"

Saying that, Lao Cao didn't bother to take care of him...

However, it is true that many people pay attention to him, and his first work is so successful! Now I am very convinced of the so-called box office appeal, if you have a box office, it is awesome!

Most of them are newcomers or actors who are interested in literary and artistic dramas, and actors who have become famous at this stage are not interested in newcomers' works, so it is better to use dim sum to win the favor of Lao Mouzi, Feng Xiaogang or the director in the Hong Kong circle...

Therefore, Zeng Guangxian was really happy during this time, and the company received hundreds of resumes in a few days, a large number of agent promotions and invitations to many activities.

"To be honest, you have to have a suitable role, let Lao Ji try it too!"

“… He's suitable, I'm suitable, do you want to give up the role?"

"That's... What about the supporting characters?"

“… He may not be happy with the supporting role!"

Yes, the competition between peers is Chiguoguo, if a drama is popular, you are popular...

Of course Lao Cao understands this, and he is not a bad person, so the topic stopped and changed the topic: "Do you want to make this movie and get Mr. Wu Ruofu's approval?"

"Of course, he will also appear in the play, playing Cao Gang, who was the search and rescue work presided over by Officer Cao..."

Lao Cao was very curious: "Then why don't you let him play Mr. Wu?"

Lu Xiaoran was furious: "... Do you still have a bit of humanity? Kidnapping, it's not enough to remember once? It's too much to let people recreate it again?"

The psychological wounds left behind by being kidnapped are indelible for a lifetime...

Teacher Wu Ruofu can stand up and play the role of the whole crew of "Rescue Mr. Wu", which is really a treasure - the actors can ask for advice at any time...

Lao Cao knew more about Lu Xiaoran, and directly retorted: "Pull it down, is it because of this reason that you don't let people star in the starring role? You just suspect that your family is not famous enough! Looking at the description in your script, this Mr. Wu is a Hong Kong actor who came to the mainland to develop... Who do you want to invite? Liang Chaowei?"

“… Why do you think Liang Chaowei is?"

"He's good at acting!"

“… Acting is not the same thing as having a box office, right? He's so expensive!"

The point is that Tegui!

He is not good at talking, unlike Andy Lau, who can be kidnapped with favors...

His salary for "Red Cliff" is 18 million...

"I'll play this Cang brother, I think he is quite dramatic!"

After reading the script, Lao Cao quickly determined the role he wanted, one of Huazi's younger brothers, and he was the second leader, who ordered Mr. Wu to be strangled after Huazi was caught by the police...

Lu Xiaoran looked at Cao Binkun with some surprise: "I thought you wanted to challenge Huazi!"

"I have self-knowledge, I can't handle a role like Huazi!"

……

In the Hong Kong film industry, there is the title of Double Monday, because of the terrifying performance of the three of them in terms of box office appeal in that era, coupled with high production, the annual box office champions are basically produced among these three people.

Liang Chaowei, to be honest, he has never been a very box office appealing actor, the output is not high, and he even has a black history of box office poison, part of which is the blessing of the king of sunglasses, but he lost the mulberry of the east corner, and the award brought to him by the king of sunglasses is incomparable to these three...

Although Fa Ge is even the best actor in Zhuang Golden Statue, he still can't compare with 5 golden statues and 3 golden horses, as well as Liang Chaowei, the second Chinese and the only Cannes actor in Hong Kong, in terms of awards...

As for the eldest brother Cheng and Xingye, the luck of these two is even worse...

If he makes a literary film, he must be the first choice, but when it comes to commercial films, the appeal is slightly insufficient!

Although the script of "Rescue Mr. Wu" has been released, in order to attract investment, you have to find a supporting big star...

And this star card must be big enough, otherwise, the Beijing public security department may not be happy to assist in the shooting...

On the other hand, investing...

Lu Xiaoran did this play, and he didn't think about how much box office he made - the box office in 15 years was only 195 million, and Xiao Lu Zi didn't think he could surpass this data.

But more than 100 million is still predictable...

As long as the box office exceeds 100 million, he will enter the 100 million yuan club, and the entire Chinese film director circle can be regarded as the top group of people!

According to the plan, the investment of the whole drama needs to be at least 60 million, of course, some advertisements can be implanted, such as watches, cameras and the like...

This is not in his consideration, he needs to make sure that when the filming officially starts, the funds on the account are sufficient!

Investors are looking at the cards to place orders, you have Andy Lau in your hand, it is not a problem to pull up to 60 million, and some supporting shooting convenience conditions will also be in place.

If you can't pull it, pull Liu Qingyun or Wu Zhenyu, then the investment amount may have to be reduced by more than half...

Lu Xiaoran went to find Ning Hao, who was filming "Crazy Racing" in Xiamen, and the filming was almost over.
