Chapter 39: Unfair Competition
"Are you satirizing the abuse of stand-ins by some crews?"
Journalists are all insiders, and they receive the news much earlier than the audience.
Many popular dramas that have not yet been broadcast, and the complaints of the behind-the-scenes personnel have long been remembered by them, just waiting for the whole people to start opposing actions!
Therefore, as soon as I heard Shen Lin say, 'live shooting, no stand-in' was subconsciously brought into some big-name 'little fresh meat'.
“… I didn't say it explicitly, don't scribble, it's not the time to talk about it! ”
Shen Lin waved his hand and said something that made the reporters excited again.
"Next topic, you ask."
Looking at the scumbag reporter in front of him, he couldn't suppress his excitement, and Shen Lin hurriedly changed the topic.
"Director Shen, I really want to know what kind of psychology you said at that time."
"You mean on the stage of the Oscars?"
The female reporter nodded, and Shen Lin continued: "I don't know if you watched the live broadcast, but I was insulted on the spot, what kind of person I am, everyone knows very well, as long as I feel unfair, I will definitely say it, of course, I am still very restrained, I don't swear..."
"Then Director Shen, are you a racist?"
This issue is the focus of everyone's concern.
Not only the North American audience, but also many people in China feel that the reason why Shen Lin ridiculed Chris Rock in public is because he is a racist and he hates black people!
"Are you kidding? How could I be a racist, I just think some people are asking too much, just like this year's Oscars, obviously because the quality of black people's work is not up to the Oscar requirements, and then there are a bunch of people who demand fairness and have to nominate black people, which is simply blasphemy against the film! I'm sure to have a bunch of black nominees at next year's Oscars, and the best picture will definitely go to a black team! ”
Of course, he dared to guarantee the ticket, because "Moonlight Boy" won the 89th Academy Award for Best Picture!
Still, this passage shows his attitude.
“… So, you just think movies shouldn't be about race or politics? ”
"Of course, otherwise why would a movie be called art?"
After a bunch of nonsense, these reporters finally let Shen Lin go.
"Director Shen, thank you for accepting my interview, and one last question, which one day before yesterday was rumored that Zhao Liying's salary in "The Legend of Chu Qiao" was as high as 40 million, is this true?"
"Well, I guess it's true."
"Don't you think the price is a bit too high?"
“…”
Shen Lin looked at the reporter from Netyi in front of him like an idiot: "Then do you know how much the TV series "The Legend of Chu Qiao" made because of Zhao Liying? Do you think investors are stupid? Won't they calculate? ”
"Compared with the output, 40 million I think it is a friendship price to be able to invite Li Ying, why don't you say that other people can easily pay 80 million?"
……
"The actor requirements are like this, you see how many suitable ones there are in our country!"
Shen Lin sat in the office of the studio, leaned comfortably on the chair, and said to Fang Jianhao in front of him.
Back on his own turf, Shen Lin finally relaxed a lot.
"Under thirty, you have to be able to dance, be tall... Linzi, why don't we let the hot bar try, just right, let the North American audience be familiar with it, and make the "Tomb Robbery Notes" series more popular! ”
After Fang Jianhao listened to Shen Lin's several conditions for actors, the first thing that came to mind was Di Lige.
Nonsense, Fat Di is his own family, and of course he must give priority to his own people if there are benefits!
"And the hot bar is a dance major from XJ Academy of Arts, and has a foundation!"
"But... How is Fat Di's English? ”
Shen Lin always felt that Fat Di's face was associated with Caitlin played by the original Mizuno Sonoya, which was too inconsistent.
"It's okay, let her start learning now, anyway, filming won't start until May..."
Fang Jianhao was about to call Wang Qingcheng's phone as he spoke.
"Okay, you let her try!"
Fertilizer and water don't leave outsiders' fields, it's really not good, let's talk about it.
Shen Lin sat on the office chair, drank another cup of tea, and waited for the arrival of the hot bar classmates.
Anyway, Huairou is not too far away from BJ, let her come over and try the next play, if it works, she will take it directly.
"Hey, Sister Li, it's me, I'm in... I'm in the office, type, then I'll wait for you. ”
At this moment, Li Xiaoping's phone called, and she was in a hurry.
“… Li Xiaoping said that she was coming over, but she didn't know why. ”
After Shen Lin hung up the phone, Chong Fang Jianhao roughly explained.
"You say, would she want to go through the back door?"
Fang Jianhao thought about it and proposed a possibility.
"Probably not, I haven't heard... Wait a minute, how come there is a phone again..."
"Hey... I'm Shen Lin, Sister Chang, what's wrong? Si Chun doesn't have any dancing skills, so forget it, next time I have a suitable role, I must think about Si Chun. ”
Hanging up the phone, Shen Lin said to Fang Jianhao a little helplessly: "It seems that the news has spread out, and it can't be stopped!" ”
"It's unlikely, this kind of thing should only be known to us..."
Casting is related to all aspects, and the general director or producer must have his favorite object before the film starts, but it is really not good, and then consider other candidates, or open recruitment.
This is even more true in movies like La La Land, where the selection of all roles is basically done in secret.
"I was interviewed by the media just now, and I accidentally said that I missed my mouth..."
Shen Lin explained a little embarrassedly.
“… Well, you're just waiting to be scolded by a bunch of fans! ”
After Fang Jianhao left a sentence that made Shen Lin feel inexplicable, he turned around and walked towards the door.
"What do you mean... Oh! ”
Shen Lin was so smart, he understood what Fang Jianhao meant in just an instant.
The current popular little flower who doesn't have a few brainless fans.
Although the role this time is not as important as the last "Captain Touching Gold", as long as you can participate, it means that you can get a bunch of benefits, but participating in Hollywood works and going out to brag with others will also feel like you are competing for idols!
If you don't choose their baby, wait to be killed.
Fans are definitely more enthusiastic about protecting their idols than they are about caring for their children, and they are absolutely not allowed to 'hack' their babies.
If Shen Lin chooses Di Lire, he knows how he will be sprayed with his toes!
And just this time, Shen Lin has received calls from no less than five brokerage companies, with the same purpose, wanting to recommend his own artists.
Most domestic artists still want to get out!
Of course, Shen Lin pushed them all away, and had already decided to let Fat Di go, so there could be no second candidate.
In fact, he had also considered his daughter-in-law, hey, Li Ying's dancing posture is so spicy that she can't see it!
It's quite suitable for Tong Liya, but it's a pity that this sister's contact information was deleted by him, and she is also pregnant...
