Chapter 617: "Tomoko" from the Neon Nation
The four blockbusters took turns, and Lu Lin was busy for more than half a month before he figured out the clues and put the project on the right track. But he still can't be idle, because "Three-Body Problem 2", which has been in preparation for a long time, is finally going to start.
The current announced investment budget is $250 million, but if it is converted to VR format at a later stage, the book cost will be at least doubled, that is, from $500 million. That's more than the previous highest-cost Pirates of the Caribbean 3's 342 million. However, the fact that "Three-Body Problem 2" will eventually be converted into a VR movie is still in the secret stage and has not been publicized. is the issue of the choice of actors, which often causes heated discussions.
The most discussed is naturally Yang Mi, the actor of the heroine Cheng Xin, and the divorce rumors that often break out, are on the hot search at every turn.
The difference is that it was not until after the Spring Festival in 19 that Yang Mi issued a divorce statement, nearly two months later than another time and space.
But just because Yang Mi took over the role of Cheng Xin, some netizens were able to link the divorce with Cheng Xin's performance in "The Three-Body Problem", and it was strange enough to carry out various attacks and abuse.
This situation is enough to be similar to Wu Jing's "The Climber" being scolded before it was released!
Another thing that sparked heated discussions among otaku netizens is the anthropomorphic character of Tomoko, played by Japanese benzene actor Suzumu Airi. The actor was born in 94 and has a height of 162, that is, he is an actor, a singer and a model.
In fact, regarding the role of Tomoko, when the movie was being prepared, there were different opinions within the company, and they felt that they could choose among their own artists, such as the younger Song Zhu'er. It is also recommended to choose in the entire Chinese entertainment industry, and pick a newcomer who is not old and has some acting experience.
But Lu Yan feels that since he wants to respect the original work and face the international market, choosing a Japanese actor will make it easier for overseas audiences to accept it when promoting.
Moreover, when I tried out the play, I felt that this girl looked sweet and harmless to humans and animals. But when you want to keep a straight face and not smile, there is still a little bit of cold feeling, which is the most suitable one among the Japanese actresses I have seen.
But what netizens are discussing is another group of candidates, which belongs to the ...... of spreading if you talk too much!
As for the other characters and actors, because the topic and controversy are not as big as these two, they are relatively less discussed by netizens.
On the morning of March 10th, "Three-Body Problem 2" held a new film press conference at the Sofitel Wanda Hotel in Beijing, and the opening ceremony was arranged on the 11th, which is still the digital base of Huairou China Film, but at that time, filming started directly and no longer accepted media interviews. So on this day, there were nearly 100 media reporters who came to attend the new film press conference.
The people of Longlin Pictures are accustomed to it, and Ling Mu Aili, who came to China to shoot a movie for the first time, was inexplicably surprised.
Although she is young, she made her debut early, became a trainee in the second grade of primary school, and later held many concerts with the girl group, and also went to Treasure Island. But it's the first time I've been on the mainland.
In fact, since she received the invitation to Longlin Pictures, she always felt dizzy, and asked several economic people many times in a row, was she really selected?
After all, she is only a twenty-four or five-year-old girl, and the total number of film and television works is less than ten novels, and she was actually photographed by director Lu Lin and starred in the anthropomorphic Zhizi in "Three-Body Problem 2", which is really a pie-in-the-sky thing!
In fact, even her agency was deeply surprised, it was really just a try, but she was actually selected.
The agent also asked him if Director Lu Lin had any hints, but Ling Mu Aili said that the other party just asked her to play a good job, which surprised the agent.
Then tell Airi that if the other party has any requirements, try to meet them.
Ling Mu Aili was silent, she has debuted for many years, she is naturally not a little white rabbit, she understands the meaning of the agent, and she also understands how rare this opportunity is.
"The Three-Body Problem" is famous, and even the old American President of Austria is a fan. Director Lu Lin won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film with the movie version of "The Three-Body Problem".
In this case, as long as the quality of "Three-Body Problem 2" does not decline seriously and the reputation plummets, how can she get into the name of an international superstar until the release, whether it is developing in China or staying in Japan, it will be much stronger than now.
However, when she was still young, she really wanted to break into China, because she heard that the salary here is super high, and there are good female artists, and a TV series has a salary income of 14 billion yen.
And in the neon country, even the most popular stars don't earn a billion yen in a year. Haruka Ayase, who ranked first in the actress income list last year, earned 650 million yen, which is much more than her.
But compared with Chinese artists, it is less than a fraction. However, there are still people evading taxes, and she really can't complain. If I can make her earn even 100 yen for a play, I would be willing to pay more taxes!
wanted to come to China to develop, it was just a not very firm idea in Ling Muai's heart, and she didn't dare to reveal it to others, even the eldest sister of the agent who has always taken good care of her, she never said it.
It's just a firm thought in my heart, I must befriend Director Lu Lin, if I can get his affirmation and care, it will be easier to come to China or return to Japan to develop!
The little girl had a secret goal in her heart, and she kept reading the Japanese version of the script sent to her by the crew every day. On the day of the new film press conference, I came to the waiting area from the hotel room, with a pair of beautiful big eyes, I kept looking around, looking for Lu Lin's figure.
After about twenty minutes, she finally saw Lu Lin coming together with a smiling and fair-skinned long-legged girl, which made her a little disappointed.
When Lu Lin was about to get closer, he directly bowed ninety degrees and said in non-standard Chinese: "Lu Linsang, hello, I am Ling Mu Airi from Chiba County, I am very grateful to you for giving me this role, I will definitely work hard to play it well and live up to your cultivation!"
Ai Li frightened everyone around him. Deng Chao, who was talking to Yang Mi, probably had a lot on "Running Man", and his body with an exaggerated expression hid back, and he couldn't help but say, "I'll go, there's still a Japanese man!"
Jing Yan, who was following Lu Lin, was even more frightened, and thought why someone would sneak attack and do something!
Because although celebrities make a lot of money watching the scenery, they also encounter a lot of troubles. Black fans, perverted in their hearts, bought to deliberately provoke disgusting people, can really encounter anything.
But fortunately, the bodyguards on both sides saw it clearly, and the other party just bowed and did not make any further movements.
Lu Lin's kung fu is in his body, and he has a super microscopic computer, of course, it is not a sneak attack, and he said with a smile: "It's love, we have a saying in China called following the local customs, don't be so polite!"
