Chapter 301: Turn on and worship God
To be honest, Zhang Yaoyang's appearance is not bad, he has played the bad guy in two movies in a row, if he has no idea at all, it will definitely be fake, he has been kicked into the bad guy pile by Lin Lingdong since he entered the industry, and after acting in "Dragon and Tiger", he will be pointed at when he walks on the street, as if he has really done bad things.
Of course, complaining is complaining, Zhang Yaoyang is still grateful and admired for discovering Lin Lingdong who has entered the film industry, and as soon as he received a call from Lin Lingdong this time, he rushed over without saying a word.
On the way here, Zhang Yaoyang still wondered in his heart that "Prison Storm" had just finished filming and had not yet had time to be released, so it stands to reason that Lin Lingdong would not be in a hurry to start filming a new movie at this time.
When he arrived at the café where he had made an appointment to meet, and saw Mecca sitting next to Lin Lingdong, Zhang Yaoyang couldn't ask questions directly, so he could only sit down first according to the doubts in his heart.
Before Lin Lingdong could speak, Mecca first asked Zhang Yaoyang about some things, Zhang Yaoyang was flattered at the same time, and at the same time, he had a little more doubts in his heart, when did a company boss like Mecca become so approachable?
"Playing the villain in two plays in a row, I really wronged you."
Although Zhang Yaoyang was indeed very aggrieved in his heart, he didn't dare to admit it in front of Mecca and Lin Lingdong.
"The director asked me to play the villain, so I naturally had the director's idea. In movies, everyone has their own suitable position, decent or villainous, it's just acting. ”
Mecca smiled and patted Zhang Yaoyang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's good that you can think so." Yesterday I met with a friend who had a movie in his hand and a role that he hadn't found the right person for, and I recommended you to him. You have to behave well after you go. Don't disgrace me. ”
Seeing Zhang Yaoyang stunned there, he didn't react. Lin Lingdong gave him a look, Zhang Yaoyang reacted, and hurriedly said modestly: "Xie Lu Xie Boss cultivates." ”
Mecca nodded, patted the sofa and stood up, "Adon, I still have something to do, you can tell him the rest." ”
Lin Lingdong and Zhang Yaoyang got up together, and Mecca waved their hands so that they didn't have to send them. I went first.
As soon as Mecca left, Zhang Yaoyang suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and before he sat down, he asked Lin Lingdong about his new role.
"Have you forgotten what you just said? No matter what role the director wants you to play, just do your part. ”
Lin Lingdong took this opportunity to take the opportunity to knock Zhang Yaoyang twice, Zhang Yaoyang smiled shyly: "Director Lin, don't you know what kind of person I am?" I've always been 100% accurate in the director's intentions, and you can rest assured of that. ”
Although Zhang Yaoyang expressed his attitude, Lin Lingdong was still worried that he would not pay enough attention to this matter, and specially instructed him: "This movie recommended by the boss to act in is a little unusual, Mr. Lin Youlun, you should know the truth, right?" ”
Zhang Yaoyang's mouth is big. He didn't close it for a long time, and he didn't expect it. This matter will actually have something to do with Lin Youlun.
"Hong Kong has set up a new film screenwriters association, ready to make a film to raise money to build a new building, Mr. Lam is the honorary president of the screenwriters association, he is in charge of this matter, the script is written according to his ideas, and the director is himself ...... With Mr. Lin's connections, it's no problem to find some big stars to act in this play, but I don't know why, he used not very famous actors this time, and such an opportunity is not something that can be encountered casually. That's all I have to say, I don't need to teach you how to do it, right? ”
——
"Crazy Stone" started very low-key and did not notify the media in advance, but on that day, many media still heard the news.
In the list of actors announced by the film, Wu Zhenyu and Liu Qingyun are already the most famous, and some of the other actors have never even heard of the media, so it is obvious that this group of reporters are all from Lin Youlun.
No one doubts Lin Youlun's ability in screenwriting and production, but it is the first time he has been a director, and there are as many people in the media who are optimistic about Lin Youlun as there are people waiting to see Lin Youlun's jokes.
According to the consistent tradition of Hong Kong films, before the movie starts, a feng shui master must be asked to determine the start time, accurate to what time it is, and then it is necessary to determine the direction of worshipping the gods.
The usual practice is to cover the camera with a red cloth, and then the main creator will worship the gods in turn, and then cut the pig's head with a knife together, and finally the director or producer will lift the red cloth of the machine and announce the start-up.
In view of the fact that there were too many reporters present, after the worship ended, the crew temporarily arranged a media meeting, because it was a temporary arrangement, Zhou Yimin, who made a cameo appearance as Liu Qingyun's girlfriend in the film, became the master of ceremonies on the spot.
The first person to be interviewed was, of course, Lin Youlun.
"The name of the movie is called "Crazy Stone", does this name have anything to do with the plot of the film?" Zhou Comin asked with the microphone.
Lin Youlun asked Zhou Comin to help hold the microphone, and then the 8 actors on the command stage stood in two groups: Liu Qingyun, Zhang Dashu, Dong Plagiarism in one group, Zhang Yaoyang, Xu Guanying, Huang Yishan in another group, and Wu Zhenyu and Wang Jingjing were pulled aside by him, "The main contradiction in the film revolves around a piece of jade, the actor standing on my left is responsible for defending the jadeite, and the actor standing on the right hand side wants to steal the jadeite, and then the characters of Wang Jing and Wu Zhenyu are also playing the mind of the jade, and the real and fake jadeite is constantly dropped, The most reluctantly performed a story of black humor. ”
"Which side am I on?" Zhou Comin suddenly asked mischievously.
Lin Youlun smiled and pointed to his left-hand side, Zhou Comin walked back to his "camp", and then began to interview Liu Qingyun.
"Brother Liu, can you reveal why you will take this movie?"
Liu Qingyun took the microphone handed by Zhou Comin and said with an embarrassed face: "Do you have to say it?" ”
Zhou Comin nodded seriously.
"Actually, I'm a fan of yours." Liu Qingyun looked at Zhou Yimin very seriously, "I heard that you are playing my girlfriend, so I thought that I would act in this drama even if I didn't pay me." ”
As soon as Liu Qingyun's words fell, a group of reporters in the audience followed suit, Zhou Yimin's face flushed, and then without leaving any entertainment suspense, he exposed Liu Qingyun's lies: "The list of starring actors in the movie was announced three days ago, and I only decided to make a cameo in this movie yesterday, Brother Liu must have remembered wrong." ”
Liu Qingyun smiled: "Don't debunk me so directly, although what I said just now was a joke, there is one sentence that is absolutely true, I am really your fan, and I have a collection of your three albums." ”
"I can attest to that, because I gave him one of them." Wu Zhenyu suddenly stood up, imitated Liu Qingyun's tone and demeanor, and said, "Actually, I'm also a fan of Miss Zhou!" ”
"Hey, hey, I said you two had enough trouble." Wang Jing also interjected, "You can't have that kind of relationship between two big men who take Miss Zhou's song tape as a gift, right?" ”
Saying that, he made a shuddering motion, which caused a burst of laughter from the audience.
"It's okay for you to say that, but you can't say that about Qingyun!" Wu Zhenyu immediately stood up to refute it in a righteous and stern manner, but the next sentence immediately exposed his "evil" nature, "Qingyun is already dark enough, if you say this again, won't he turn into coal when he blackens his face?" ”
Not to mention the reporters in the audience, but several of the main creators standing on the stage were amused by Wu Zhenyu's words, and when the three of them teased each other enough, Zhou Comin took over the conversation, and then interviewed Dong Plagiarism.
Dong smiled and waved his hand, "Actually, I have a little more scenes than you, and my appearance is about five or six scenes, I can only say that Mr. Lin trusts me and asks me to play this role, and I will definitely play it well." Of course, acting is just my hobby, and if you ask me about horse racing, I can tell you a lot, but this is not the occasion. ”
Then Xu Guanying also said the reason for his participation in this movie: "In fact, I have long hoped to cooperate with Mr. Lin, and this time I finally have such an opportunity, I am full of confidence in myself, and I believe that this movie will not disappoint everyone." ”
The microphone was handed over to several main creators, and the most slugging came to Zhang Yaoyang's hand.
"It's really surprising, I didn't think I could work with Mr. Lin, of course, this time I still play the bad guy, but this is a comedy, and I also hope that my performance can break through the previous limitations."
At the end of the interview on the stage, and then it was time for the reporters in the audience to ask questions freely, Zhou Comemin picked the reporter who raised his hand the fastest and asked him to ask the first question.
"Mr. Lin, "Crazy Stone" is your first directorial work, and everyone thinks that you are too conservative to cast such a cast, what do you think of this statement?"
Except for Lin Youlun on stage, the faces of the other actors changed color, which is equivalent to red. Bare. Naked, slapping them in the face, thinking that they are not big enough.
"When I buy things, I have always followed the principle of only choosing the most suitable ones, not the most expensive ones, and the same is true for making movies, the actors I choose are the ones I think are the most suitable for the role, and even if the same role is replaced by actors who are more famous than them, they will not have better performances than them."
Lin Youlun is full of experience in dealing with the media, and his words are not leaky, not only answering reporters' questions, but also taking care of the face of the actors on stage.
With the lessons learned from the first time, Zhou Yimin was much more cautious when choosing the second reporter to ask questions, and specially chose a female reporter, but he didn't expect this female reporter's question to be even more difficult to handle.
"Recently, it was reported that Lai Sun Group is preparing to restructure New Arts City and set up a new film company, what is Mr. Lam's view on this?"
