Chapter 8: The Fourth Brother's Kid
got Wu Mengda and Zhou Xingchi, but the "opponents" of these two "stupid thieves" in the film have never found a suitable candidate.
Lin Youlun gave Wang Jing a problem, according to the requirements in his script, the little boy who eats the heaviest scenes in the film must be smart, and he cannot be more than 6 years old. Those who are too young can't act, and those who are older don't meet the requirements, Wang Jing interviewed dozens of children, and he almost went directly to the street to recruit people.
Wang Jing was upset about this matter for several days, and every time he called Lin Youlun, he was complaining.
Lin Youlun doesn't have a suitable candidate in his heart, so the matter of actor candidates can only give Wang Jing a headache himself.
On this day, Lin Youlun was watching TV alone in the house, and a wooden stick suddenly stretched out from the ticket window, and a ten-yuan Hong Kong bill was tied with a thin wire at the top of the stick, and it staggered in front of Lin Youlun.
As soon as Lin Youlun touched the thread on the stick, there was immediately a burst of cheers outside.
"Hooked, hooked, fished!"
The immature Tongyin flew away with a giggle, Lin Youlun glanced out the window, but saw no one, and when he opened the door, the little guy had already run away.
Where did the little fart kid come from, actually running here to be naughty? Lin Youlun shook his head helplessly, just thinking that this was a prank by a nearby child. But after a few minutes, the kid came again, this time he quietly hid under the ticket window, thinking that Lin Youlun didn't see him.
Lin Youlun suddenly opened the door and startled the little guy.
This kid looks like he's three or four years old, but he's not afraid of life at all, and when he saw Lin Youlun, he didn't run, just squatted at the foot of the wall. Under the thick eyebrows, there are a pair of big eyes, dark eyes dripping and rolling, a cocked nose and a red mouth, and a small round face full of boundless naughtiness.
Lin Youlun walked up to the child and squatted down, touched his little brain, and asked with a pleasant face: "Little friend, where are your daddy and mommy?" ”
The child shook his head and asked in a milky voice, "What do I have to tell you?" ”
Lin Youlun deliberately scared him and said, "If your daddy and mommy are not there, I will let the big bad wolf eat you." ”
The child was not fooled, "You lie, there is no big bad wolf outside Dad's land, only in the zoo." Daddy also said that there are only big perverts outside! ”
Lin Youlun was stunned, this child's father was too good, and he actually told him this.
Lin Youlun had to ask another question: "Then what are you doing here?" ”
"Watch a movie!"
Lin Youlun was dumbfounded, "This is also what your father told you?" ”
"Uncle Fat told me." The kid was honest this time.
Out of the corner of Lin Youlun's eye, he caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure at the door, probing his brain there, and deliberately said loudly: "Does that fat uncle have a big belly, and then his face looks like a pig's head?" ”
Wang Jing, who had been hiding at the door to watch the play, heard Lin Youlun hurt himself like this, and finally couldn't help jumping out: "Which eye do you look at me like a pig?" ”
As soon as Wang Jing appeared, the little boy who was squatting in Lin Youlun immediately stood up, jumped up and ran behind Wang Jing, showed his head, and stuck out his tongue at Lin Youlun.
"Where did you find such a kid?" Lin Youlun asked curiously.
Wang Jing picked up the little boy and said proudly, "I thought you would ask him if he was my son." ”
"Needless to ask, can you give birth to such a beautiful child like this?" Lin Youlun's words hit Wang Jing hard, but he couldn't refute it.
"Hat, hat!" The little boy was also restless in Wang Jing's arms, grabbing his pockets vigorously.
"Okay, put a hat on you!" Wang Jing took out a small green hat from his pocket and put it on the little guy's head.
Wang Jing turned his head and asked Lin Youlun, "Guess whose child he is?" ”…,
This little guy's face does look a little familiar, but unfortunately he is too young, and Lin Youlun really can't match him with his parents for a while.
Wang Jing was a little surprised, this kid looks very similar to his father, that is a popular star, it stands to reason that Lin Youlun should be easy to guess.
"Okay, I won't go around in circles with you, he is a child of the fourth brother's family, and he just turned 3 years old this year."
Lin Youlun was confused, "Which fourth brother, why haven't I heard of it?" ”
Wang Jing's eyes widened, "You don't even know Xie Xian?" ”
Lin Youlun raised his eyebrows, and looked at Wang Jing holding the child with a face full of disbelief, "Is he Xie Tingfeng?" ”
Wang Jing thought that he had played a trick on Lin Youlun again, "Damn, you even know his name, and you actually told me that you don't know his father?" ”
Lin Youlun didn't explain to Wang Jing, but just seriously glanced at the little boy hiding in his arms and grimacing at himself, and asked repeatedly: "Is he really Xie Tingfeng?" ”
Wang Jing rolled his eyes, "Is it necessary for me to lie to you?" Besides, if you look at his appearance, what doesn't he look like his father? ”
"What are you doing with him?" Lin Youlun's mind couldn't turn for a while.
"Filming! During this time, I have been interviewing young actors, but I can't find a suitable one, the last time I met Fourth Brother Xie, I mentioned a few words when I chatted with him. The fourth brother listened to my request and said that this matter was on him, and he brought this kid here after two days. ”
Hearing Wang Jing's explanation, Lin Youlun finally reacted, "Are you going to let him act?" ”
"Don't look at this kid is only three years old, he is very smart, he can learn anything as soon as he teaches, and he won't be nervous in front of the camera, so I decided to use him."
Lin Youlun is not worried about Xie Tingfeng, this kid will be much more famous than his father in the future. Although he is a little younger now, with his parents' genes there, filming should be no problem. What Lin Youlun is really worried about is that Wang Jing is really sure to manage this little guy and let him obediently cooperate with the filming?
Wang Jing is also having a headache about this, this little guy is good at everything, but he is too naughty, everything has to depend on his temperament, and if he can't do it, he will cry immediately. Wang Jingcai had only been in contact with him for a few days, and he had made him two big, so he had to take this kid to ask Lin Youlun for advice.
Lin Youlun thought for a while and asked, "How much do you pay this kid?" ”
Wang Jing stretched out a palm, "Friendship is worth 50,000." ”
Lin Youlun shook his head decisively, "It's too low!" ”
"It's not low, those second-tier actors who are not popular are also paid this piece." Wang Jing gave Lin Youlun a reference, and Xie Xian's salary at this time was only in his early 100,000s.
"At least 100,000, 50,000 is the kid's salary, and the other 50,000 is for Depolia, give her a random name in the crew, and let her help you get this kid." Lin Youlun gave Wang Jing an idea.
"That's right!" Wang Jing patted his head, "Why didn't I think of it?" Let his mother come to see him, and let his mother take care of this kid when he is disobedient! ”
"If I were you, I should take this opportunity to have a good relationship with Lagu. It doesn't matter if this scene is not popular, if it is popular, this kid will be a cash cow in the future. Lin Youlun remembers very clearly that after the film was released in the United States, the young actor who played the leading role in the film became the hottest child star in Hollywood overnight, and then successively filmed the sequel of the movie and many movies of the same type, and the salary caught up with Hollywood first-line stars.
Now Lin Youlun has moved this movie to Hong Kong in advance, as long as the film can become an instant hit, Xie Tingfeng, who is only three years old, will definitely become a fragrant bun in the eyes of major film companies, Lin Youlun wants Wang Jing to have a good relationship with Xie Tingfeng's family in advance, and he is also thinking about the sequel to the film.
