Chapter 53: I Want Both Scripts (Thanks to SuKayLee for the tip)
What the company arranged for Xia Xueying was the TV series that was invested by its own family-the new "Mischievous Kiss".
As soon as Xia Xueying saw the title of the play, most of her interest went away.
The new "Mischievous Kiss", to put it bluntly, is a remake.
The painful experience of countless people who have come before tells us -
Remakes of classics are usually thankless.
What's even more terrifying is that in this TV series, there are a lot of love scenes and kiss scenes.
Although the assistant Ellie slapped her breasts to the point of bursting, and repeatedly assured that the kiss scene would be borrowed, she still felt too awkward.
If you borrow a seat, the audience will still take it seriously.
She will be out of the circle in a year and devote herself to a serious academic career.
A professor who has filmed a kiss scene...... No matter how you think about it, I feel embarrassed.
Absolutely inappropriate!
Xia Xueying refused very tactfully, but Ellie was very embarrassed-
Even if you are popular and have a mysterious background, if you are so disobedient to the arrangement, if the company agrees, where is the prestige?
Fortunately, just when Seal Entertainment was facing a problem and felt that it was difficult to deal with it, someone came to solve the problem for them.
The person who came was a big name, a super big name.
Also, more than one.
The scripts of the two movies were sent to Seal Entertainment, and they all invited Xia Xueying by name.
One is "Dog Youth" directed by Ouyang Bowen, and the other is "Flower on the Other Side" directed by Wu Yiping.
At this time, the seal management was also alarmed.
If there is also a chain of contempt in the entertainment industry, then the top of the pyramid must be a movie.
The movie is also divided into three, six, nine and so on.
Many of today's traffic movies have always been the final say of the investor, and the director's voice is very low. As long as there is capital, the star himself is popular, and it is not difficult to be the leading actor.
This kind of movie is generally not popular, the money is earned, but it is not beneficial to the long-term development of the star.
And Ouyang Bowen and Wu Yiping's movies are another matter. Both of them are award-winning regulars, popular with many newcomers, and have good box office and word of mouth.
The films made are applauded and acclaimed, and such directors are naturally top scarce resources.
And this kind of director often has his own independent studio and a set of professional teams. When others make movies, they inevitably ask grandpa to sue grandma for sponsorship, and their movies are investors who want to participate in and get a piece of the pie.
Therefore, the director's decision-making power in all aspects is very large.
Many stars, in their lifetimes, may not be able to play an important role in the movies of such well-known directors.
Xia Xueying debuted from the C-position of the "UFO Girl" girl group, and now the traffic is flourishing and her popularity is super high. But this is never something that really big directors will consider, they choose a role, there is only one primary condition - suitability.
Seal Entertainment originally planned to let Xia Xueying shoot a star TV series first, and then star in a traffic movie, regardless of whether Xia Xueying renews the contract later, in short, in the first year, the company can make a lot of money.
Now, the two famous directors have thrown olive branches, and the new "Mischievous Kiss" is naturally not worth mentioning.
Assistant Ellie handed over the two scripts to Xia Xueying, thinking that the little girl would be surprised if she didn't say that she was so excited that she went crazy.
Who knew that the porcelain doll-like girl flashed with longan's big eyes, but smiled very shallowly and said, "I'll read the script first." β
Her calmness shocked Ellie, her face twitched, and it was easy to suppress the depression on her face, and she forced a smile: "It's okay to take a look first, it's okay to be cautious, hehe......"
Ellie is an assistant assigned to Xia Xueying by Seal Entertainment. Such a popular artist returned to herself, and at the beginning, Ellie had a sense of excitement that she burned high incense and won the jackpot.
If you are a good assistant, becoming an official agent is just around the corner!
But slowly, Ellie felt that something was wrong, Xia Xueying seemed to be a refusal professional-
Acting in the new "Mischievous Kiss"? I'm sorry, I don't want to act.
Starring in a film by a well-known director?
Artist, this is too Buddha, right?
It's hard to be an artist, and it's even harder to be a popular artist.
And being the assistant of a popular but very Buddhist artist is even more difficult!
Just when Ellie's heart was entangled, a soft touch suddenly appeared on her hand.
I saw Xia Xueying stretch out her soft white little hand and hold her hand. The shallow little pear vortex is extremely cute, and her tone is soft and sincere: "Thank you for your hard work, thank you!"
Ellie's heart instantly felt as if she had been struck by lightning, filled with natural electricity!
She said to herself in the guise of chicken blood-
No! There are no unmotivated artists, only assistants who don't work hard! I will push her forward!
β¦β¦
Just now, I couldn't recognize Ellie's heart.
Xia Xueying hugged the script and was quite disappointed.
The human heart recognition skill uses three elements, and the most difficult thing is definitely the third point - the other party is defenseless.
Sure enough, it's a chicken rib giveaway reward. Xia Xueying shook her head and decided to put this unusable skill into the cold palace.
Then I didn't think much about it, went back to the dormitory and started reading the script.
first watched "Dog Youth" directed by Ouyang Bowen.
It tells the story of a young girl who grows up, longs for understanding, companionship and love, but constantly experiences disappointment, loss, and finally gradually compromises with the adult world.
Director Ouyang Bowen, who is in his early thirties, is the leader of the seventh generation of directors, that is, the new generation of directors.
His style has always been more literary, and this one is no different.
In the past, the cost of tens of millions of movies and the box office of hundreds of millions were large. Moreover, his films are very popular with some well-known foreign film awards, and in recent years, he has brought out several best actresses, male leads and best supporting actors.
Although there is also a bit of ambiguous emotional drama in the script, it is not at the same level as the new "Mischievous Kiss".
Xia Xueying made a decision at the moment, and this drama took over!
Let's watch another one, "The Other Side Flower" directed by Wu Yiping.
Director Wu has passed the age of destiny and is a representative figure in the "fifth generation of directors".
His films have refreshed the box office records of new Chinese films several times, and have also infected and inspired generations of audiences.
What is rare is that he has never stopped challenging himself, and he has always brought more surprises to the audience through different themes.
This time, "The Other Shore Flower" is a disaster blockbuster with an investment of hundreds of millions, and it also incorporates science fiction elements.
As for the plot, it's really thrilling, ups and downs, and psychedelic. It is worthy of being a big director.
In this play, Director Wu only invited Xia Xueying to participate in the heroine audition, but did not officially decide that she would play it.
Xia Xueying recalled that there is no disaster movie in China that is very good. Director Wu's film, if successful, will definitely be a milestone in film history.
It's normal for a good movie to have competition. She immediately decided to compete!
"Waitβ"
He was about to call Ellie when a mechanical voice sounded in his head.
"The second main quest is about to be released, so get ready!"
"Come on!" Xia Xueying hurriedly responded, since she knew that she would be completely free after completing a few more tasks, she was looking forward to new tasks every day.
Please choose one of the following two tasks to complete. The system began to introduce, "Task one, dig up a peer's scandal and expose it." Do you choose this task right away, or do you want to listen to task 2 and then decide?"
