Over the Pacific Ocean, a passenger plane flying from Hong Kong to the United States is shuttling among the clouds.

"He's still interesting, if it were me, he wouldn't be so much reasonable to him at all, just say 'you act or not'!" In the first class, Wang Jing and Lin Youlun sat side by side in the front position, talking about the topic of the character selection of "Super School Bully".

The two went to the United States this time, on the one hand, to attend the premiere of "The Mummy" starring Cheng Long in New York, and on the other hand, to find suitable actors for "Super School Bully".

The two roles of broom head and golden retriever king, Lin Youlun already has a suitable candidate in his heart, and has already sent someone to contact these two actors, of course, this time to meet to further confirm the other party's attitude.

From Lin Youlun's mouth, Wang Jing also learned some about the situation of these two people, and the one he was most curious about was the actor who played the broom.

"You said that foreigner is really a die-hard fan of Hong Kong kung fu movies?"

"Schwarzenegger, do you know you?"

Lin Youlun asked this question a little strangely, Wang Jing couldn't guess what he meant, so he had to nod along with his meaning.

"The foreigner you are talking about, the American media now call him Schwarzenegger's successor, how strong he is, I don't need to introduce you more, right?"

Wang Jing then appeared in his heart a picture of Schwarzenegger showing off his muscles, since Lin Youlun said so, compared to that person, it will not be much worse than Schwarzenegger.

The foreigner himself said that when he was young, he was very thin, and later he undoubtedly saw Hong Kong kung fu movies. Since then, I have fallen in love with kung fu movies and Bruce Lee. And thus embarked on the path of an action actor. ”

After listening to Lin Youlun's introduction. The first thought in Wang Jing's mind was that this foreigner was too capable of.

Lin Youlun shrugged, "Anyway, among American action actors, he is more familiar with Hong Kong movies, and he is also the most likely person to work with us, and he will play the broom head, I think it is more appropriate." ”

Wang Jing nodded, and then suddenly remembered something.

"That's right. I forgot to ask you after saying so much, what is the name of that foreigner? ”

"Shange Winton!"

——

At Los Angeles Airport, Cheng Long and Shange Winton are waiting for pick-up.

Because of the perennial filming of action movies, Cheng Long's figure is already good among Hong Kong actors, but standing in front of the tall Shang Ge Yunton, he still feels some pressure.

"Jack, as far as I know, the first few movies you made in Hollywood were all run by Mr. Lin, and I'd love to know what you think of him...... There were just the two of us here. I guarantee that every word you say below will not reach the ears of a third person. ”

Shang Ge Winton said though. But Cheng Long is not stupid enough to talk to an American who has only known him for less than a week.

"Among the Hong Kong filmmakers I have met, Mr. Lam is definitely the best, there is no one, he has made a lot of movies that are very popular in the United States over the years, I believe you should have seen many of them, he is one of the few people in Hong Kong who can handle the cultural differences between the East and the West very well, so that Western audiences can accept Eastern films, this alone makes me full of respect for him."

"Is that all?" Shang Ge Wenton was obviously not particularly satisfied with Cheng Long's answer, "I heard that Mr. Lin's status in the Hong Kong film industry is like the protagonist in the movie "The Godfather", he alone monopolizes the entire Hong Kong theater chain, and he also invests in movies, which is unimaginable in the United States, and there will inevitably be his works in the top box office movies in Hong Kong every year, and he is like a king in Hong Kong, is this the real situation?" ”

Cheng Long didn't know where Shang Ge Yunton knew this, he was reluctant to answer this question, but he couldn't ignore Shang Ge Yunton, so he had to say vaguely: "The actual situation is not as exaggerated as you say, but most of it is true. ”

"So in Hong Kong, you also need to follow Mr. Lam's instructions, even if you have earned a lot of respect in Hollywood?"

Shang Ge Yunton didn't realize that his question had already made Cheng Long feel a little embarrassed.

"I have to correct your statement, Mr. Lam does have a high status in the Hong Kong film industry, but he never forces directors or actors to make movies they don't like, you can ask other Hong Kong filmmakers to verify this, I believe they will give you the same answer as I do." Cheng Long replied with a serious face.

Shange Winton nodded, "Can I understand it this way, do you mean that Mr. Lin is a very easy-going person?" ”

When Cheng Long heard this, he suddenly felt that he couldn't cry or laugh, Lin Youlun is a very easy-going person, Cheng Long doesn't think so.

Lin Youlun has never forced others, but the problem is that there don't seem to be many filmmakers in Hong Kong who are qualified to reject him.

The airport radio began to prompt the arrival of the flight, Cheng Long heard the flight that Lin Youlun took, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and finally didn't have to continue to deal with Shangge Yunton, and stayed with this guy for a long time, Cheng Long felt that he really couldn't communicate with him well.

I don't know if this guy is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, anyway, what he said made people speechless.

Coming out of the boarding gate, Wang Jing saw Shang Ge Yunton standing with Cheng Long from a distance, and it was really in line with the image he imagined - muscular, tall and big.

Cheng Long had already greeted him, first shook hands with Lin Youlun, and then said hello to Wang Jing.

Lin Youlun glanced at Shang Ge Yunton, who was standing there and didn't come over, and then asked Cheng Long: "I've told him everything, right?" ”

Although it was the first time he had seen Shange Yunton himself, Lin Youlun was very familiar with Shangge Yunton's image, and he didn't need to confirm it to know the identity of the other party.

"Including some things about the role, as well as the salary, I told him, but he insisted on waiting until after meeting Mr. Lin and you before officially considering whether to play this role, so I brought him today." Cheng Long gave the following introduction to the situation.

Wang Jing was not happy when he heard this, "What does it mean to consider acting only when you meet, which means that he has never considered cooperating with us before?" ”

Lin Youlun also frowned, before coming to the United States, he knew that Shang Ge Yunton might be a little difficult, but he didn't expect the other party to have such an attitude.

"Alright, let's stop standing here, let's meet him for a while."

After speaking, Lin Youlun walked towards Shang Ge Yunton.

"Mr. Lin, if I'm not mistaken, we should be meeting for the first time, right?" As they shook hands, Shange Winton asked a very strange question.

"Does Mr. Shangewenton think I'm familiar?" Lin Youlun asked with a smile.

Shange Winton shook his head.

"Mr. Lin's first impression on me was very strange, I felt that you seemed to know me very well, as if you had known me for many years."

"Really?"

Lin Youlun was silent on the surface, but he couldn't help but be a little curious in his heart, counting the part of the memory in his mind, he did know Shange Yunton for many years, but the question was how did Shang Ge Yunton see it?

"Maybe Mr. Lin himself didn't notice that when you came over to greet me just now, that kind of tone and expression didn't look like the reaction you should have when you saw a stranger, but more like you met an acquaintance." Shange Winton explained.

Lin Youlun looked at Shang Ge Yunton a few more times, and then asked with a smile: "Is Mr. Shang Ge Yunton really an action actor?" Your judgment can be used as a police officer or in a more specialized profession, such as the FBI or the CIA. ”

Shange Winton shrugged, "Being muscular doesn't mean being simple-minded, at least for me. ”

Lin Youlun nodded seriously, "Then I really should get to know you again." ”

"So Jack must have told you already, right?"

Shang Ge Yunton suddenly came out of nowhere, and Lin Youlun was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was referring to.

"Yes, he told me all that Mr. Shangevington thought, though I don't think that is what Mr. Shangevington really thought."

"Really?" Shang Ge Yunton's eyes lit up, "What does Mr. Lin think I really think?" ”

"If Mr. Shange Winton is not satisfied with the role, there is no need to come to see me, so I think you should not be satisfied with the salary we offered."

As soon as Lin Youlun said this, the faces of Wang Jing and Cheng Long next to him became a little unpleasant.

Lin Youlun's salary to Shang Ge Winton is 1.5 million US dollars, which is already more than the combined salary of other Hong Kong actors who participated in this movie, and this Yankee is not satisfied!

When Shange Winton heard this, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.

"I'm glad Mr. Lin brought this up, and that's really one of the reasons why I hesitated to take this movie, because in my opinion, the most suitable salary for me to appear in this movie should be $2 million."

"Are you sure Mr. Shangewenton is not joking with me? $2 million asked you to make this movie, for what I won't add $2 million, I directly asked Schwarzenegger to make this movie, although it was only $2 million higher, but I think the box office revenue he can bring to this movie is definitely worth the price, and Mr. Shange Winton, can you? ”

Lin Youlun lifted Schwarzenegger out, Shange Yunton's face couldn't be hung up directly, his current influence in the United States is obviously not comparable to Schwarzenegger, and it can even be said that the two are not actors at the same level at all.

"Mr. Lin, do you want to know that Schwarzenegger may not be interested in making your movie?"

"Mr. Shange Winton, you also have to make it clear, I don't mind spending more money on movies, but I will definitely spend this money on more valuable places, if I find Schwarzenegger to play this movie, I can give him a salary of 5 million or even higher, but if you play this role, the salary of 1.5 million cannot be higher...... You should know this better than I do! ”
