When many people get the news, their first thought is, how rich and capricious they are.

Including, the actress's sister also made a special call to persuade Lin Xiao not to take such an unnecessary risk.

It can be seen how little confidence everyone has in Lin Xiao's directing ability.

"Is it rich and capricious, or is it an inflated mentality? Let's wait and see. ”

"Perhaps it was the success of the previous three movies that made Lin Xiao swell to the point that there was no one in his eyes, and it was unimaginable that he, without any directing experience, wanted to challenge a big production. ”

"Lin Xiao's first directing work may be the beginning of the end of a miracle!"

Not only is the media not optimistic, but insiders have also said that Lin Xiao is too self-aggrandizing and so on.

Some people also said that Lin Xiao didn't know how to spend it if he had a lot of money.

All in all, Lin Xiao once again pushed himself to the cusp.

Lin Xiao's previous three movies were great successes, and while they won countless praises, they naturally offended many people, and many people wanted to see his jokes.

It's just that they haven't had a chance, but this time, they found an opportunity to criticize Lin Xiao vigorously.

"I really thought I was an all-rounder, but I wasn't that easy to be a director. ”

"The people who eat melons said that they would wait for Lin Xiao to fail!"

"The 3 movies that Ling Xiao Ge invested in before have all received huge returns, so Ling Xiao Ge has lost money, but how good it is to have money for charity, why just take it away?"

Although he knew that after this news came out, it would cause some controversy, but Lin Xiao didn't expect that the controversy would be so big.

The key is not this, Lin Xiao doesn't care too much about public opinion.

But the biggest problem now is that the protagonist of the new film, Wang Pengfei, refused, obviously because he lacked confidence in Lin Xiao's directing ability.

And it is impossible for Lin Xiao to invite those second- and third-tier stars to act, after all, although the acting requirements for actors in this film may not be as high as "Infernal Affairs", but it definitely needs actors with superb acting skills to take charge, as a result, a lot of invitations were issued, but they were all rejected.

In fact, this is relatively normal, many times, like those first-line actors, or top actors, when they choose scripts and roles, they not only have to read the script, but also look at the director and other leading actors.

And Lin Xiao, a young director, is obviously not enough to make them believe in his directing ability.

"Lin Xiao, otherwise, I think it's better to forget it, you really want to practice, shoot a TV series or a low-cost production first, and after you prove yourself, I believe it won't be the current situation when the time comes. Xiao Jie was also worried during this time.

Although Lin Xiao often brought them impossible miracles, this time they still had little confidence in Lin Xiao.

Although Lin Xiao also admitted that Xiao Jie's words were right, he didn't want to wait.

In fact, Lin Xiao was still a little unconfident, but the few cards drawn in the lottery last night made Lin Xiao look confident.

Sometimes luck can't be stopped, and he actually drew a 4-star director card for this film.

It's just helpless, if you talk about singing, or acting, you can directly prove yourself through auditions and live singing, but the director is different, this one needs to make a movie to prove himself.

So he knew he was fine, but he couldn't prove it to others.

"I've made up my mind, and the question now is how to find the right actor instead of trying to persuade me to change my mind. Lin Xiao said with a frown.

"But we all sent out audition invitations to the slightly suitable actors in China, but they were all rejected, and they clearly don't believe you. Xiao Jie said with a depressed face.

"Why don't you lower the bar a bit?" Xiao Jie asked.

"No, is there really no one to choose?" Lin Xiao shook his head.

"It's not nothing, but ......" Xiao Jie hesitated.

"But what?" Lin Xiao asked with some confusion.

"Liang Shaoqing, have you heard of it?" asked Xiao Jie.

"Liang Shaoqing?" Lin Xiao looked dazed.

"Liang Shaoqing, the actor of the Chinese Film Awards, the actor of the Hong Kong Island Academy Awards, but it is a pity that after that, Liang Shaoqing's luck seems to have run out, and he lost one by one, and gradually became box office poison. ”

In fact, with Liang Shaoqing's fame, even if he became a box office poison, it would not be so, but Liang Shaoqing was very proud, he only accepted the protagonist, and the supporting roles were absolutely not accepted, and almost all the movies in which he starred in the protagonist lost money, so gradually no one asked him to film anymore. ”

"What do you mean, looking for this Liang Shaoqing?" Lin Xiao asked, touching his chin.

"Yes, in terms of acting, Liang Shaoqing is actually very good, but his luck is really not very good, in fact, seriously, the films he starred in failed, and he can't be completely blamed, it's just that several films are like this, so ......"

"By the way, there is another point, if you want to invite Liang Shaoqing, you still have to think about it carefully, after all, he is a box office poison ......" Xiao Jie said seriously.

The film and television industry also attaches great importance to those mysterious things, and an actor-level actor who messes up several films in a row is worth scrutinizing.

"Then what is Liang Shaoqing doing now?" Lin Xiao asked with some confusion.

"It's not clear, but if you decide to give it a try, it shouldn't be hard to find someone. Xiao Jie said.

"Well, look up what he's doing now. Lin Xiao pondered for a moment and said.

"By the way, what about the other characters?" Lin Xiao asked again.

"Well, there are some people who recommend themselves, but they are all small actors, and less than one-fifth of the people we invited are willing to audition......" Xiao Jie said with a wry smile.

In addition to the main role, a film also needs a large number of supporting roles, don't think that the supporting roles are unimportant.

Like Huang Zhicheng, Han Chen, Silly Qiang and others in "Infernal Affairs", they are not just anyone who can do it.

But as soon as many people heard that Lin Xiao was directing it himself, they retreated directly.

Of course, the choice of supporting roles is certainly not as troublesome as the choice of assertiveness.

However, it is certainly not possible to choose the best of the best.

"By the way, do you remember Fan Wencheng?" asked Xiao Jie with a strange look on her face.

"Well, what's wrong?" Lin Xiao asked suspiciously.

"He called earlier and wanted to meet you. Xiao Jie said.

"Did you say what was going on?" Lin Xiao asked suspiciously.

"No, I just wanted to meet you. Xiao Jie shook her head and said.

Lin Xiao was really a little confused, what was the purpose of this Fan Wencheng asking him to meet at this time?

"What do you think, what does he want to do?" Lin Xiao asked as he looked at Xiao Jie.

"He's a director, what do you think he wants to do? It's nothing more than two possibilities, one is to pull investment, he messed up "Marginal Man", in the short term, there will definitely be no opportunity to direct a big production, and the other possibility is that he may fall in love with our project......
