With a snap, the script was dropped on the desk.

Lin Youlun raised his head, and his eyes swept over Wang Jing, Xu Ke, Gao Zhisen, Chen Jiashang, Zeng Zhiwei, and Cai Tingting one by one.

"You're really willing to save me money."

The six people standing at the desk, you look at me, I look at you, and the other five people all looked at Wang Jing in the end, and their eyes all expressed the same meaning: You and Mr. Lin are good friends, you come to explain to him.

Wang Jing had no choice but to stand up and say, "Aaron, in fact, we ......"

Lin Youlun raised his hand and stopped Wang Jing from speaking.

"Okay, I know that this script is so urgent, and then you have to meet the requirements of so many actors to show their faces, which really makes it very difficult for you, but you can't fool me with such a script, right?"

Wang Jing, Xu Ke, Gao Zhisen, Chen Jiashang, Zeng Zhiwei, and Cai Tingting were all very weak-hearted, and subconsciously avoided Lin Youlun's gaze.

"In fact, when I was reading this script, I kept persuading myself that this is just a charity movie, and if so many actors are put together to make a movie, everyone can do their best, and the plot is far-fetched and you don't have to worry about anything...... However, from another point of view, if this film is not co-directed, co-written, and co-performed, and only one of you is a single nominal director or screenwriter, can you accept that you can make such a movie? ”

Lin Youlun paused, saw Wang Jing's mouth open to speak, pointed at him and said, "You forget it, as long as the movie can make money, you are willing to make any bad movie." ”

Xu Ke, Gao Zhisen, Chen Jiashang, Zeng Zhiwei, and Cai Tingting all wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh when they heard this, and they stood there very happy.

"Maybe you think. It's just a charity movie. Let's just fool around, and it's over. But have you ever considered the feelings of the audience? Everyone buys tickets to enter the venue, and they don't have to do anything for half an hour, just to count the stars? You can accept it, but I can't! Lin Youlun spread his hands and made his attitude towards the script of "Wealthy Night Banquet" very clear.

In the memory of Lin Youlun's later generations, the unprecedented all-star lineup of "Rich Night Banquet" is definitely a swan song in the history of Hong Kong films, but it is a pity that the plot of this movie is stiff and rough, in order to take care of many participating stars. Many characters show their faces for the sake of showing their faces, and then the lines are very arbitrary, which greatly reduces the objectivity of the movie.

No matter how many stars there are in this movie, the audience will not buy it, in Lin Youlun's impression, the box office of this movie only collected more than 20 million, which is not even one-tenth of the combined value of all the stars in the film.

If it was just to raise funds for disaster relief, "The Night Banquet of the Wealthy" would be qualified, but now the initiator of this charity movie is Lin Youlun, and the box office of the movies he invested in has never been less than 30 million. Now if the script of "The Night Banquet of the Wealthy" is used, the box office will only receive more than 20 million at that time. What will others think?

At that time, the media and the public in Hong Kong will not remember that Lin Youlun first donated 50 million Hong Kong dollars in the name of Jiayi Cinemas, and then donated 50 million in his personal name, they will only say that the movies that Lin Youlun invested in before were all box office hits, but when it came to the movies that were about to be donated to the box office, they only got a passing grade, which was obviously not filmed with heart and deceived the public's trust.

That's the awkward part of being a celebrity, you do a good job, and everyone takes it for granted; If you don't do well, people will ignore everything before you and come up with all sorts of reasons to scold you.

Give a dog a bad name and hang him!

In addition to being often caught by the media for "sore feet" and severely criticized for the convenience of the relationship between men and women, Lin Youlun has always had a good reputation in all other aspects, and of course he doesn't want to leave a handle on this matter.

The script of "The Night Banquet of the Wealthy" is qualified in the eyes of others, but it is not possible here in Lin Youlun.

"Okay, I won't embarrass you, put away this script first, and then see who wants to shoot it, I'll write the script this time."

Lin Youlun made a final decision, and the script of "The Night Banquet of the Wealthy" was abandoned.

Wang Jing, Xu Ke, Gao Zhisen, Chen Jiashang, Zeng Zhiwei, and Cai Tingting were all relieved when they heard this, anyway, they didn't put too much thought into this script, and they didn't feel any pity to give up.

Seeing that there was nothing to do with him, everyone else said goodbye and left, but Wang Jing stayed.

"Aaron, are you really going to write this script yourself?" Wang Jing closed the door of the office, turned back and looked at Lin Youlun and asked.

Lin Youlun looked at Wang Jing angrily, "I was expecting you to come up with a good script, but did you do it?" ”

"Hey!" Wang Jing sighed, "It's not that everyone doesn't care, it's that your requirements are too high." ”

Lin Youlun waved his hand, "Okay, don't explain, I'll solve the script, and then don't co-direct this movie, the director will do it to you." ”

"Me?" Wang Jing pointed to himself with a surprised expression.

Lin Youlun glanced at him, "What, unwillingly?" ”

Wang Jing hurriedly waved his hand, "How come, I can't have the opportunity to do this good thing, it's too late for me to be happy!" I'm just worried that other directors will have an opinion, after all, they also want to be involved in this film and do their part. ”

Lin Youlun made a gesture and motioned for Wang Jing to lean his head over.

"Next time you lie, please don't have such a fake smile on your face!"

The expression on Wang Jing's face froze suddenly, it looked like he was laughing, but in fact it was more ugly than crying, and his little caution was really seen through by Lin Youlun.

"You said that the problem is also very simple, when the time comes, the directors who have worked hard for this film will all give them the title of film consultant, so that it will be solved?"

Lin Youlun said this, and Wang Jing had no choice but to accept this arrangement.

"This drama has to bring so many actors together, and it will be very urgent to shoot, the script you read ......"

"I'll give you the script tomorrow, and then from now on, you can go and prepare it. This is a costume drama, adapted from the famous Peking Opera song "Meilong Town", which tells the story of the Ming Dynasty emperor Zhu Houzhao who went to the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Lin Youlun probably told Wang Jing about the script idea he thought of, and this script actually came from a costume comedy called "Dragon and Phoenix Shop" in the memory of later generations.

chose "Dragon and Phoenix Shop", not because of how good the plot of this movie is, but because there are enough characters in this movie, and various supporting roles and dragon sets can meet the requirements of many Hong Kong stars to appear in the film to the greatest extent.

Of course, this also includes Lin Youlun's little selfishness, and the reason why "The Night Banquet of the Wealthy" in later generations can be starred as all-stars is because the purpose of making this movie is to raise funds for the flood-stricken areas in East China, so everyone in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is willing to participate, and many people are willing to come to play tricks, there is only one such opportunity in the history of Hong Kong film, and Lin Youlun also wants to participate.

"The heroes and heroines we set for "Wealthy Night Banquet" are Zeng Zhiwei and Zheng Yuling, and now we are remaking "Dragon and Phoenix Shop", who will play the protagonist?" Wang Jing looked at Lin Youlun with a distressed expression.

The image of the protagonist of "The Night Banquet of the Wealthy" itself is not good, Zeng Zhiwei volunteered to play it, and other actors were happy to play him, but the image of the actor in "Dragon and Phoenix Shop" is prominent, and the characters in the whole play revolve around him, no matter which actor is found to play, others will have some ideas more or less.

If only one or two stars are fine, but this time there are hundreds of celebrities who are willing to participate in this movie, and it is not easy to convince everyone.

Lin Youlun shrugged, "No one else is suitable, then I'll act it." ”

Wang Jing clapped his hands, what he was waiting for was Lin Youlun's words.

Lin Youlun has a special identity, he plays the leading role in the film, and no matter how big a star is, he has to cooperate obediently, and no one can say a word of gossip.

The actor was decided in this way, and then Wang Jing then asked: "Who will play the heroine?" ”

Lin Youlun glared at Wang Jing, "Are you the director or am I the director, why do you ask me everything?" ”

The grievance in Wang Jing's heart, if he said this, would he still need to ask it like this? But listening to the meaning of Lin Youlun's words, it seems that he has not made up his mind.

"Li Jiaxin?"

Wang Jing said a name first, and Lin Youlun shook his head.

"She's pretty, she's pretty, but her acting skills are not good."

"And what about Comet?" Seeing that Lin Youlun's face was wrong, Wang Jing hurriedly changed his words and said, "No, I'm talking about Miss Zhou." ”

Lin Youlun continued to shake his head.

"Xiao Min is too gentle and doesn't fit the character's character."

Wang Jing spread his hands, "Then there will be only Miss Wang." ”

Lin Youlun didn't immediately refuse this time, but he didn't agree either.

Wang Guxian's personality is a bit rude, and it stands to reason that he is indeed a suitable candidate, but Lin Youlun always feels that Wang Guxian is playing the role of Sister Li Feng, and he always feels that there is something missing.

"I think it would be more suitable for Xiaoxian to play the princess in the film."

Wang Guxian's role has been decided, but the heroine has not yet been determined, and Wang Jing is starting to feel a little anxious.

Zhong Chuhong is about to give birth in France, definitely not; Qiu Shuzhen is free, but Wang Jing is ready to let her play the role of "Miaomiao", the beautiful clerk of the dragon and phoenix store in the film, but she is also excluded; Lizhi has already disappeared, so she doesn't need to think about it...... After counting his fingers, Wang Jing found that the choice of the heroine was still undecided.

"The ancient costumes should be beautiful, the manners should be generous and decent, and the temperament should be more mature."

After Lin Youlun said his requirements for the role of Sister Li Feng, Wang Jing pinched his chin and thought for a while, and suddenly thought of someone. (To be continued......)
