Chapter 226: He's Back
Gao Xiang took a copy of the script and handed it to Song Wan: "Hollywood big production, well-known director, Oscar-winning actress Chang Yang." β
Song Wan glanced up at Gao Xiang and found that there was not much joy on her face.
After she opened the script, her heart, which was originally a little moved, also fell silent: "Push it." β
Song Wan refused without hesitation.
The script is very good, it is a very common European and American big-budget commercial film, the plot is compact, the special effects are advanced, and the actors' coffee positions are even more first-class luxury.
But the role of inviting Song Wan is just a vase, or a role that is only two or three minutes long, or maybe cut to less than two minutes after filming, has no meaning to play, and it is not worth taking such a role to Hollywood to test the waters.
It's not that there haven't been domestic super-first-line stars who have done this before, but what about the final result? It's not that there hasn't been a splash at all.
Gao Xiang looked at Song Wan seriously, and sighed for a long time: "I think so too." β
She didn't directly reject the other party, because a super first-line actress she brought out before had also received such a role, and she directly rejected the production company after mentioning it to her out of consideration for the other party's star career.
Unexpectedly, the production company finally came to the door again. and the actress herself who found it directly.
The actress had a big fight with her, but in the end, she still took the script despite her dissuasion, and chose to terminate the contract with her and go abroad to work hard.
But a few years later, what is the result now?
There is no fame abroad, and she is excluded because of her skin color; the original good situation in China has also collapsed, and her popularity is because she has not had a work for a long time, or has produced a work, but she is only consumed as a vase of soy sauce in it.
Neither of them was well fished.
Gao Xiang still insisted on her own ideas, but she was worried that the old things would happen again, so she put the choice in Song Wan's hands.
Unexpectedly, Song Wan had the same idea as her, and had no intention of taking over the role.
"Do you really think so? not because of me?" Although Gao Xiang felt that she could hide her thoughts in her heart so that Song Wan couldn't see anything, she had a big trouble with that actress back then, and it was hard to guarantee that Song Wan had heard about it.
Song Wan was surprised for a moment, and then shook her head: "I'm still young now, and I haven't reached the time when I want to be recognized by Oscar." β
Even from her selfish point of view, Song Wan doesn't attach much importance to the Oscar award-
Compared with several other A-category international film festivals, the Oscars have too strong political connotations and have no purity of films at all.
Song Wan wants to win awards, but she just wants her acting skills to be recognized, not to gain attention and fame by gilding an internationally renowned award.
However, the national situation is like this, and if there is a chance to win the award, of course she will still fight for it.
But for the sake of an award, he worked tirelessly and completely reversed the cart and the horse, and it was more than worth the loss for Song Wan.
It's not worth it.
Gao Xiang breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought you would be stupid too." β
You must know that the actress who fell out with her, before receiving an international film invitation, was also a really smart person who was both online and had a very good plan for her star journey. But in the face of the big cake of Hollywood, she was still confused.
Gao Xiang felt that she had discovered another advantage of Song Wan-
See clearly, and be content.
Gao Xiang made a trick, and took out another script: "With the name of the actress, there are many scripts handed to me, but the quality is ......"
Gao Xiang shook her head.
Or Song Wan was too young to win the award, so that people could not make up their minds to hand over the role of the leading beam to her. And the script that wants to invite Song Wan is too flashy, and at first glance, it is just to consume Song Wan's fame, Bo is a gimmick, and it is not sincere.
Song Wan tilted her head and looked calm: "It's not a big deal, I heard that many actors will encounter the so-called actor wall after winning awards, and I am much better than them." β
Besides, whether it is the company, Gao Xiang or herself, the route set for her is a dedicated acting school, and the next works are all high-quality works, and if you can't receive them for the time being, you really don't need to worry.
Song Wan took the script and didn't continue the topic, but asked another question: "The heat on the Internet hasn't cooled down yet?"
Ever since she exposed her relationship, the Internet has been like the New Year, and the noise is full of her news, and I feel my eyes hurt when I look at it.
It's not that there are no fans who say that she wants to lose her fans, but she has taken the route of a powerful acting school since her debut, and she is not afraid of these fans such as Yan Fan boyfriend fans to lose fans, and this incident has no impact on her career.
If he didn't understand this in his heart, even if it was for career considerations, Song Wan would not have been able to announce her relationship at this stall.
However, unexpectedly, Jin Youqian is very concerned about the news on the Internet.
Although she was appeased by her "land reparation" last night, Song Wan could see that Jin Youqian was still minding.
It's not that she doesn't mind announcing her relationship, but that she doesn't name her partner - that is, he himself.
I also mind the comments of netizens on her falling in love and his evaluation.
Sometimes Song Wan wonders if she and Jin Youqian are gender disordered, why is he more like a little princess who needs to be pampered?
Fortunately, the news on the Internet is quite positive.
Jin Youqian was also very happy.
Gao Xiang glanced at Song Wan with a smile: "What's the matter, Jin always made something wrong?"
She can see that the relationship between Song Wan and Mr. Jin is that the silent Song Wan occupies the initiative, and she is more rational about the relationship between the two, and it is easier to give up in case of trouble.
To be honest, Gao Xiang admires Song Wan a lot, after all, even if ordinary people look at Jin Youqian's wealth, it is impossible to let go so easily.
"What do you think of Mr. Jin as...... ......"
Gao Xiang stared at her and just smiled.
Song Wan inexplicably had a hot face, coughed a few times, and hurriedly flipped through the script.
At the beginning of the script, an ordinary girl in a white dress suddenly and strangely appeared at the scene of the murder, and said a very strange thing to the police who were investigating the case-
"Ah, she's back!"
Everyone thought it was strange, but they only thought that the girl had a problem with her brain and didn't take it to heart.
However, they didn't expect that the girl's words seemed to turn on a switch, and after that, a series of murders happened one after another.
And, except that the same girl in a white dress appears at the scene of the crime every time, it seems to be unrelated.
The police had to pay attention to the girl, thinking that she must know part or all of the inside story, and wanted to find clues to solve the case.
But when the police really came to the door, they found that the girl was the girlfriend of the only son of a famous local wealthy Qi family, and at the same time, she refused to help the police, saying that she had no idea.
The police were driven out of Qi's house directly.
β¦β¦
""He's back"?" Song Wanyu read the entire script several times, and couldn't help but look at Gao Xiang, his eyes were a little strange, "Suspense detective drama......?
Song Wan frowned a little uncomfortably, "Such a movie is ...... in China There's no way it's going to pass the trial, right?"
Although she used a question, she was inexplicably sure of this guess in her heart.
This is not an ordinary suspense detective drama, Song Wan can see that this script is completely for the award.
Because it not only involves human nature, but also a series of niche elements such as juvenile crime and transsexuality.
But it doesn't seem to have completely given up on the box office -
Judging from the rhythm of the script, the screenwriter is writing completely according to the script of a commercial movie, and even runs through the whole story with "revenge" as the main line in it.
Song Wan hesitated a little, lowered her head and pressed her pounding heart: "The script is very good, it can even be compared with Director Cai's "The Last Man". She admits that the script is excellent, "but I think the screenwriter is too greedy." β
After thinking about it, she asked, "Have you decided who will direct this movie?"
Gao Xiang shook his head: "After the company got this script, it targeted several well-known directors, but you must know that directors with enough skills to direct this script will not lack good scripts, and the schedule will not be scheduled at all." β
"That ......"
"The company values a rookie director and thinks his coaching ability is good. A hint of mockery flashed in Gao Xiang's eyes, obviously unimpressed.
Song Wan thought for a moment and said, "I need to think about it." β
Gao Xiang was strange: "I thought you would push it directly, you can see the screenwriter's ambition from the script, but there are very few directors who have enough control to turn the screenwriter's ambition into reality, and they don't have a schedule yet." β
Gao Xiang thought that she had made it clear enough, but she didn't expect Song Wan to be willing to consider the possibility of starring in this movie.
It was a surprise.
Song Wan pursed her lips and looked hesitant: "I want to ask what is going on." β
It stands to reason that such a script should not be handed to her at all.
At the beginning, Imperial Capital Entertainment wanted to take the boutique route, whether it was artists or works.
But first, you have to put out a faΓ§ade.
And Song Wan already has the strength to become the face of imperial entertainment, both in appearance and acting skills. At this time, Imperial Capital Entertainment didn't want to find a way to pile resources on Song Wan and get her out as soon as possible, but handed her a script that was extremely risky?
No matter what Song Wan thinks, she feels that this has nothing in common with the interests and style of acting in Imperial Capital Entertainment.
Thinking like this, Song Wan also analyzed Gao Xiang in this way.
Gao Xiang didn't think much about it at first, she also came out of a large company, and the unreasonable results of compromise under the entanglement of various interests in the company have long been commonplace, and she doesn't feel strange at all.
But after listening to Song Wan's words, she immediately reacted-
Imperial Capital Entertainment is Jin Youqian's word, and the company has not been established for a long time, so it is impossible for anyone to dare to joke about the company's interests.
Gao Xiang immediately looked terrified: "I'll call Manager He immediately to ask about the situation." β
Song Wan thought about it, and also felt that it was more appropriate for Gao Xiang to ask Manager He than for her to ask in person, so she nodded.
-
"Huh? The script for 'He's Back'?"
He Feng was busy during this time, and when he received Gao Xiang's call, he hadn't reacted immediately.
After a while, he suddenly said, "Oh, oh, there is such a thing. β
"If you haven't found a suitable director, you rewarded Song Wan's idea, isn't it a bit inappropriate? If something goes wrong in the end, what good will it do to the company?
But Song Wan, who was sitting opposite Gao Xiang, looked at it, but she only covered her mouth and snickered.
Ji An Gaoxiang looked at it, she also squeezed her eyebrows for a while, she didn't expect Sister Gao's acting skills to be so good, it's really a pity not to make her debut to act!
Gao Xiang wrinkled her eyebrows and glared at her, a stinky girl, who is she for?
He Feng didn't know that Gao Xiang was not angry, and when he heard her tone, he immediately put down his work and sat down: "We think this script is really good, if Song Wan takes it, we can decide what kind of director to invite." β
Since he said this, he didn't sell it, and said bluntly, "The blueprint of this script is too big, you should also see it, if there is no accident, you have to invite a big director." However, we recently signed a talented new director, and we feel that he is more than capable of directing this script. β
Gao Xiang raised her eyebrows: "You've decided to let that little-known director direct this movie?"
"No," He Feng immediately denied, "If Song Wan refuses this movie, we may let him direct this movie." β
The same problem, if a newcomer is asked to direct Song Wan's first film after winning the award, it is too risky.
Gao Xiang raised her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's think about it." β
"Of course. He Feng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Gao Xiang's cautious attitude at all, on the contrary, he was even grateful for Gao Xiang's prudence.
It is precisely because of Gao Xiang that the signboard of Song Wan can be created and the company can make a profit.
Gao Xiang said "um" and hung up the phone directly.
Song Wan was still laughing.
Gao Xiang squinted at her: "Did you hear that?"
Song Wan suppressed her smile, and her expression became serious: "It stands to reason that as an artist of Imperial Capital Entertainment, it is natural for me to bring a newcomer to the company." β
Gao Xiang frowned and looked at her disapprovingly.
The account is not calculated like this, although Song Wan is an artist of Imperial Capital Entertainment, all the resources she has had since her debut have been sent to her door, and she has nothing to do with Imperial Capital Entertainment.
Although it is a bit incense, it is obviously not worth it for Song Wan to bet on her future for this.
Song Wan raised her hand to stop what Gao Xiang was about to say: "Sister Gao, I know what you think. She smiled, "But have you forgotten that you are also the agent assigned to me by the company?
The company is Jin Youqian, and those directors chose her to play those roles, would it be because of Jin Youqian standing behind her?
The crisis she encountered, wasn't it the company's PR department that publicized her PR?
Gao Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then slapped his forehead fiercely: "I'm so sick in the brain!"
She didn't remember her identity as a shareholder of Imperial Capital Entertainment for a while, but instead thought about it for Song Wan, it was ......
Gao Xiang fell silent and fell into deeper thought.
After all, her own interests are involved, and she can't be a pure agent.
However......
"I still don't think you should take this script. Gao Xiang said seriously, "Whether from the perspective of your personal career or the company, this is not a good choice." Director He said that only if you give up this script, they will let the newly signed new director direct. β
In other words, neither the company nor Gao Xiang agreed with Song Wan's adventure.
Song Wan's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "Sister Gao, I have a hunch that this movie will win awards and will be popular." β
Gao Xiang raised her eyebrows: "When did you still believe in these ethereal things." β
Song Wan didn't answer, but emphasized: "This feeling is urgent, it's the first time I've felt like this." She looked up and looked at Gao Xiang with straight eyes, "I want to gamble!"
Gao Xiang opened her mouth, wanting to dissuade her, but she didn't know what kind of reason to use.
The flaws of this script that she knows, Song Wan knows better than her.
"Don't you think that "He's Back" and "The Last Man" overlap in terms of subject matter?" Gao Xiang worked hard for a long time before he thought of a reason that was not very reasonable.
Song Wan really laughed: "Sister Gao, I am not in danger of being solidified. β
She flipped through the script and shook her head again, "Besides, the personalities of the protagonists of the two scripts are also very different, and the stories are not similar at all, except that they are both suspenseful, they are not movies of the same type at all." β
Not to mention, one is a pure literary film, and the other has elements of a commercial film.
Gao Xiang was dumbfounded, and could no longer find a suitable reason.
Song Wan thought she had agreed, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Hehe," Gao Xiang looked at her coldly, "Anyway, I can't control you, go to Director He and talk to it myself." β
She wanted to participate in this movie, but the director wanted the rookie director to do it.
No matter how you think about it, you feel that Song Wan is too capricious.
Gao Xiang was a little annoyed: "I knew you would fancy "He's Back", I might as well take over the Hollywood script for you!"
At least, you can still send a press release and pretend to be forced-
Going out of the world or something, although they are almost made into jokes by the stars in the circle, they can still arouse the enthusiasm of netizens, and it also shows the expectations of netizens for this possibility.
Song Wan couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Don't worry, I'll call Director He right away." β
As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone and found He Feng's number.
Just as she was about to fight, Gao Xiang snatched her phone and rolled her eyes at her: "Okay, I'm long, I even want to rob my agent's job, right?"
