Chapter 747: The Choice of the Hostess [Three Watches]

Of course, Choi Bo-so was serious, and she explained the reason to Li Lianjie after that.

"Let's not talk about Cheng Long, his situation is quite special, but Liang Jiahui is very typical...... In terms of intimacy with Mr. Lin, Zhou Yanfa and Zhang Yurong are all ranked before him, but what did Mr. Lin choose him for? It's not that Zhou Yunfa and Zhang Yurong can't do it, but their acting styles and images have been fixed, and they are popular in Hong Kong, but not necessarily in the United States, and Liang Jiahui is different, his performance has a strong plasticity, and with some special roles, it is indeed possible for American audiences to accept him. ”

Cui Baozhu said this Li Lianjie also admitted that Liang Jiahui is a recognized acting school in Hong Kong, otherwise he would not have become the youngest Golden Statue actor, but Li Lianjie can't figure it out, he and Liang Jiahui basically have no similarities, why does Cui Baozhu think that Lin Youlun will look at him differently?

"Because you are an action actor like Cheng Long, and this type of actor is the most easily accepted by Hollywood movies, who does Mr. Lin praise you?"

Cui Baozhu broke the mystery in one word, but Li Lianjie still didn't understand it.

"I'm not the only action actor in Hong Kong, right?"

Choi Bo-so smiled, "Do you think Mr. Lin hasn't tried others?" "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" He pushed Yuan Di and Hong Jinbao out of the city, but the movie was popular, but the two leading actors failed to become popular, and Xu Ke's "Demon Beast City" looked for Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei, and the result was the same...... As for Zhao Wenzhuo, Mr. Lin may want him to act in some traditional martial arts films, otherwise he would not let him learn from Yuan Heping. ”

As soon as Cui Baozhu said this, Li Lianjie suddenly found out. Among the Hong Kong action actors. There are really not many left.

"Of course. If you want to break into Hollywood, in fact, it is not very important whether you are famous in Hong Kong, so Mr. Lin can also promote newcomers, which is more convenient and operational. When Li Lianjie hesitated, Cui Baozhu added this sentence, the purpose of which was to remind Li Lianjie that such an opportunity would be someone else's after he missed it.

Li Lianjie after a battle between heaven and man in his heart. The decision was finally made.

"Okay, I'll go see Mr. Lin."

Choi Bo-so was stunned for a moment, "Are you talking about now?" ”

Li Lianjie nodded, since he had made a decision, he hoped to solve this matter as soon as possible, and dragging mud and water was not his style.

Choi Bo-so shook his head, "Not yet, before we go, we still have to make some arrangements, such as doing some necessary processing for the script." For another example, we should also decide on the actors first. ”

When Cui Baozhu said this, Li Lianjie remembered. The heroine of the play "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard" has not yet been decided.

"Don't worry, I already have a suitable candidate, and with her joining, it will be smoother for you to meet Mr. Lin." Cui Baozhu's determined expression made Li Lianjie a little curious.

Li Lianjie asked again and again, but Choi Bo-so said that he would keep it secret for the time being, and he would tell him after the person agreed.

When he went out for dinner in the evening, Li Lianjie told Yuan Kui about it, and Yuan Kui immediately guessed Cui Baozhu's thoughts.

Yuan Kui told Li Lianjie about his conclusions, and Li Lianjie also came to his senses.

"What do you mean is that Sister Baozhu is going to find one of Mr. Lin's confidantes to be the heroine."

Li Lianjie felt that the word "lover" was a little unpleasant, so he changed to "confidant", anyway, Yuan Kui must have understood what he meant.

"There is only one possibility I can think of, but there is another problem, the salaries of those people who act in movies are not low, and our budget is ......"

Yuan Kui did not directly say that the budget was not enough, but such a reminder was enough for Li Lianjie.

"The budget is definitely not enough!"

Li Lianjie frowned, he didn't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt were expensive, he didn't open his own film company, and he didn't know that making movies in Ludao was so expensive.

Everything in Hong Kong is expensive, and to control costs, some venues often have to think about whether it is worth it, and it may cost millions to do a show, but there are only two or three minutes on the screen, which may not be worth it, and how to spend the limited cost is indeed a headache.

Seeing that Li Lianjie was very anxious, Yuan Kui comforted him and said: "Actually, this matter is not without a solution, if Miss Cui can really invite one of those actresses, then we can directly go to Mr. Lin to invest." In terms of Hong Kong filmmaking, Mr. Lin ranks second, and absolutely no one dares to call it first. ”

This would have been a very good solution, especially for a film company like Zhengdong that had just been established and did not have a lot of money on hand, it was definitely a good choice.

In other words, others may agree, but Li Lianjie is a very strong person, although he is ready to bow to Lin Youlun, but he also has to retain his dignity, that is to say, in this play, he definitely does not want to see Lin Youlun participate in investment.

Yuan Kui saw that Li Lianjie was silent, and thought that he had listened to his advice, so he didn't say anything more.

After finishing the meal, the two separated, and Li Lianjie followed and made a phone call to Cui Baozhu.

"Sister Baozhu, you told me about that incident when we parted in the afternoon, and then I thought about it for a while, and I think it's still a little inappropriate, the candidate for the heroine, should we discuss it again?"

"For what? Didn't you say yes before? On the other end of the phone, Choi Bo-so was puzzled.

Li Lianjie told Yuan Kui's speculation and some of his own worries, of course, he only talked about the shortage of funds for film shooting, and did not mention the matter of finding Lin Youlun to invest.

"It turns out that you are worried about this, don't worry, the actress I am looking for has a very suitable salary."

Cui Baozhu's answer did not dispel Li Lianjie's concerns, in order to further dispel his doubts, Cui Baozhu explained two more sentences: "My idea Director Yuan Kui actually only guessed half right, this actress does have some relationship with Mr. Lin, but it is definitely not the kind of relationship you think, so her salary is not as exaggerated as you think." ”

Li Ruoxun and Wan Qiwen, who were hiding their faces in sunglasses, pushed open the glass door of the tea restaurant, and a waiter immediately walked over.

"Young ladies, what do you want to eat?"

"Excuse me, we're looking for someone." Li Ruoxun replied lightly, Wan Qiwen next to her touched her hand, and then turned to the window seat on the left.

Li Ruohun followed Wan Qiwen's instructions and looked over, only to see a girl wearing a baseball cap quietly waving to this side, it was Zhong Liti, who ran back to the United States to continue her studies and hadn't seen her for more than half a year.

"Okay, you still know how to come back!" As soon as she walked over and sat down, Wan Qiwen complained first.

Zhong Liti reached over and grabbed her arm, shook it slightly, and said, "Okay, I'm not bored in Hong Kong, am I?" I'm not like the two of you who have filming every day, so I have to find something to do for myself. ”

"You don't know how hard we work filming every day, and you don't know how hard Lu Dao comes back to see us." Wan Qiwen was resentful.

Zhong Liti turned around and took out two gift boxes from the bag placed aside, and gave one to Wan Qiwen and Li Ruoxun.

"Well, I've brought gifts to all of you, can you forgive me?"

Wan Qiwen took the gift and didn't continue to complain about Zhong Liti, and then Li Ruoxun spoke: "Christy, how long are you going to stay when you come back this time?" ”

Zhong Liti held her hands and happily announced: "I have graduated, and I can stay in Hong Kong for a long time in the future!" ”

"Really?"

Li Ruoxun and Wan Qiwen glanced at each other, and then congratulated Zhong Liti together.

"Besides, I have good news for you!"

As soon as Zhong Liti's voice fell, Wan Qiwen rushed to say, "Have you found a boyfriend?" ”

"Not really!" Zhong Liti deliberately lowered her voice, but she couldn't hide the excitement in her tone: "I took on a new film, who do you guess you're acting with?" ”

"Zhou Runfa?" Wan Qiwen blurted out.

Zhong Liti shook her head.

"Zhang Yurong?" Li Ruoxun also guessed a name.

Zhong Liti still shook her head.

"Okay, I won't go around the bend with you, it's Li Lianjie!"

Zhong Liti looked at Wan Qiwen and Li Ruoxun excitedly, thinking that the two girls would be very envious, but she didn't expect things to be what she thought.

Li Ruoxun's reaction was better, just smiling quietly on the side, but Wan Qiwen couldn't help but joke: "Are you excited to act with Li Lianjie?" ”

"Haven't you seen those kung fu movies played by Li Lianjie? He's cool! Zhong Liti said excitedly.

"Please, your first movie was with Cheng Long, and you have also acted in action movies, don't you know how the martial arts effects of the movie came out?" Wan Qiwen said angrily.

"But this is different, Li Lianjie has real kung fu, and he also won the championship of martial arts competitions when he was in the mainland." Zhong Liti retorted.

"It's a martial arts performance champion!" Wan Qiwen especially corrected Zhong Liti's statement.

"No matter, anyway, I can act with Li Lianjie this time, I'm so excited to think about it." Zhong Liti's expectant expression made Wan Qiwen embarrassed to hit her again.

"You act in this movie, does Mr. Lin know it?" It was Li Ruoxun who asked the question.

Zhong Liti pouted and said, "Don't tell him!" He hasn't called me in all this time since I've been back in the U.S., and this time I'm going to wait until the movie is ready and surprise him. ”

Li Ruoxun was a little worried, "Isn't this good?" ”

"Tongtong, don't worry, how can you hide such a thing as making a movie in Hong Kong from Mr. Lin, this is just someone's wishful thinking." Wan Qiwen interjected at this time.

Zhong Liti doesn't care, "If you know the way, you know the way, he can't stop me from acting in this play, right?" ”

Wan Qiwen couldn't help but remind: "If you're worried about this, you might as well think more about how to practice Cantonese first, don't expect the director to agree to let you use French to correct your lines this time." (To be continued......)
