Chapter 264 of the text invites Hepburn to star

Next chapter

After accompanying Hepburn's mother and son for a day, Wu Cheng handed over the matter of accompanying them to Deng Lijun and Madonna, two 'idle' women.

As a result, Hepburn appeared in Xiangjiang, not only did the Xiangjiang media report this matter overwhelmingly, but even in North America, the same old things were brought up, and even doubted whether Wu Cheng, the owner of DreamWorks, and Hepburn were really innocent, and whether Dottie, who failed in the lawsuit, was wronged?

This matter was told by Shirley Lansing, and at the same time, she was complaining about Wu Cheng, why did she keep making these scandals when she had nothing to do? It's just fighting with the propaganda of 'Star Wars'!

Wu Cheng had no choice but to say sorry for the impact on their work, although this was not his intention.

After ending the call with Shirley Lansing, Wu Cheng called Ovitz again and asked him to take Audrey Hepburn's contract from Columbia Pictures.

As soon as Ovitz heard this, he wondered, "Hey, Boss, is the rumor true?"

"Do you believe it?"

"Oh, why not? You can even handle Angie and Teresa, and let them be your wives together. I think any miracle is possible. ”

"Okay, don't guess! I'm just wondering if I want her to star in a film about our Xiangjiang. But you know, her salary is higher than the investment of a film in Xiangjiang, if I don't dig her up, I think I will lose a lot. ”

"Hey, Boss, do you want her to star in a Xiangjiang movie?"

"What's so strange? Can't Hollywood actors act in Xiangjiang films?"

"No, no, I just think that in this case, you may lose money!"

"Who knows!

"Boss, you know, she's not young anymore, but her salary is still not low. It's not easy to get Colombia to give up her contract!"

"If it's not difficult, do you need to do it yourself?"

"Okay! Thank you, boss, for thinking so highly of me. I do my best!"

"Hurry up, though I think they'll open their mouths. ”

"That's for sure, the top brass in Colombia is not stupid!" Ovitz laughed: "So Boss, I want to confirm, is it a vow?"

"Look for yourself, if you think you've lost too much. Then forget it!" After a pause, Wu Cheng said again: "I also have to ask her for her opinion here, maybe he is not satisfied with the role I gave?"

"Okay! I see!"

After ending the call with Ovitz, Wu Cheng couldn't help but think about the role he had prepared for Audrey Hepburn. In fact, let's play such a role. It was also Wu Cheng's temporary idea.

Heben Xiangjiang, many people hope that she can cooperate with Donglong International. Wu Cheng felt that this was an opportunity. Of course, the key is that she can say yes.

As for her salary, Wu Cheng doesn't think about it so much, who calls people goddesses! Perhaps, with her participation, comedy films like "Eight Star Annunciation" can enter North America!

Just for her name, I believe that there will definitely be no fewer people entering the theater at that time.

As for whether she will be scolded in the future. That's for the future.

So, he called Huang Baiming over and talked to him about the role of "Eight Star Annunciation". The eldest brother of the three male protagonists, Ren Jianhui, is naturally played by Huang Baiming; the second brother Ren Jianlang originally planned to invite Zhou Yanfa to act, but now Zhou Yanfa has indicated that there is no schedule, so he can only be played by Ren Dahua, anyway, Ren Dahua has also played a sissy, so he should be handy; As for the third brother Ren Jiansheng, the person who starred in the original film was the god of song Zhang Xueyou, but now the future god of song doesn't know where it is!

Wu Cheng's first choice is Leslie Cheung. But Huang Baiming felt that Wu Cheng was not bad to play by himself.

However, Wu Cheng finally decided to let Leslie Cheung play it, after all, if Hepburn can star in this film, then this film will definitely enter Hollywood in the future. For Leslie Cheung, this is a good publicity opportunity. Such an opportunity is nothing to him Wu Cheng, but it is still quite important to Leslie Cheung.

How can he say that he is also his niece and son-in-law now. He doesn't take care of it, is it reasonable?

As for the male lead, Wu Chengti yì The first female protagonist is played by Audrey Hepburn.

This mention directly made Huang Baiming dumbfounded, because he didn't expect that Wu Cheng would have such a big idea. You must know that if Hepburn is invited to star, then the investment in this movie will at least triple, because Hepburn's salary alone is estimated to be not enough to pay for the previous investment. This made the pressure on Huang Baiming's body increase sharply.

even proposed to give up the director's position and let Wu Cheng direct it himself. Wu Cheng comforted Huang Baiming, but Huang Baiming insisted on not doing it, saying that it would be good to be just an assistant director.

"Boss, it's not that I'm hypocritical, it's not that I don't want to seize this opportunity, it's just that if I am asked to direct this film, I'm afraid I won't be able to grasp it!" Huang Baiming smiled bitterly: "Once Ms. Hepburn stars in this film, then this film will definitely enter the North American market in the future, otherwise there will be a question mark over whether this investment can be recovered." How can I have the confidence to guide such a burden on me?

Wu Cheng couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said: "If you can't support the mud on the wall, then how can you make those people who are struggling at the bottom embarrassed?" After a pause, he said again: "Okay! Since you insist on doing so, let's wait to see if Ms. Hepburn is willing to play this role!"

Huang Baiming nodded, finally lifted his glasses, and said: "But boss, this role is to be able to know Cantonese opera, Ms. Hepburn, can you do it?" If she is allowed to learn, it is estimated that it will ......."

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "So, I still need to ask her if she is willing to learn some of the quintessence of our ancient oriental country for this film." ”

Huang Baiming bared his teeth and sneered: "Let a Western woman learn Cantonese opera, how do I think that picture is so disobedient? I'm curious about what kind of effect it will have." ”

Wu Cheng stretched out his hand and nodded at him a few times, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be so bad!"

Huang Baiming coughed lightly, changed the topic, and said, "Ren Jianlang's flight attendant girlfriend, I don't know if you have a candidate for the boss?" I think I can let Miss Chen Yulian give it a try!"

When Wu Cheng heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up slightly, and at the end he was a little worried, and said, "You also know Ah Lian's temperament, can this role be suitable?"

Huang Baiming nodded and said, "I think it's feasible, why don't you go back and try out with her first?"

Of course, this character has some kiss scenes in the play, but Huang Baiming feels that this is not a big problem, because it can be filmed with dislocation, just make a look.

Wu Cheng's index finger tapped lightly on the table, nodded slowly, and finally said: "As for the crazy third party between Ren Jianlang and his girlfriend, I think I can let the blonde girl in my family try it." Thinking of letting Madonna play the role that Zhong Chuhong once played, Wu Cheng felt that this picture must be very wonderful, and that woman was not lacking in madness.

Huang Baiming glanced at Wu Cheng strangely, and finally said: "As for Ren Jiansheng's girlfriend, you can call Miss Zhong Chuhong to play, what does the boss think?"

Hearing this, Wu Cheng nodded, and said, "This is okay!" After a pause, he said: "Other actors, you can just watch it, I have another movie to prepare." You don't want to direct this film, but you can't leave everything else behind. ”

Huang Baiming nodded with a smile and said: "This is natural, I also want to take this opportunity to exercise, maybe in the next play, I will have confidence!"

"Whatever you want! I'll go back and talk to Ms. Hepburn, if she doesn't want to, then you should toss this movie! The investment is not so big, and I believe you will be much less stressed. ”

Huang Baiming nodded when he heard this. Although he knew that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to become famous all over the world, he also knew how much he was capable of. The previous investment made him tremble, if the investment was doubled or tripled, then ......

He couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead, fame is important, but if you are embarrassed and thrown abroad, then forget it! The opportunity to be an assistant director is also good.

It can be said that Huang Baiming's ambition in directing is not very big, otherwise, he would not have been pushing it all the time before. Now that Wu Cheng is willing to take over, it would be the best.

With Wu Cheng's current international popularity, he actually doesn't need to use this director's opportunity to make himself famous. Huang Baiming still understands this.

can only say that Wu Cheng also has certain expectations for whether this movie can successfully enter Hollywood, otherwise how could he be willing to 'go back on his word'.

……

"Woth, do you want me to star in your movie, what else do you want me to learn 'Cantonese opera', and you want Luca to play my son in the role?"

In the evening, Wu Cheng returned home and talked to Hepburn about it in front of the family. Hepburn was completely confused, and he didn't know why.

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, in the play, you are also a divorced woman living with a son...... Of course, at the beginning, we didn't have the idea of letting you play, and the characters were set up based on us Xiangjiang people. If you are willing to star, then we can set it as a mixed-race child who has lived in Xiangjiang since childhood, depending on whether you are willing or not!"

Hepburn thought for a moment and said, "I think this requires the consent of the agency behind me, you know, in this regard, although I have the right to agree, I also need to consult their opinions!"

Wu Cheng smiled: "No problem, I'll take care of it!"

"So, can you tell me what 'Cantonese opera' is?" )
