Chapter 429: Best Partner 2
After Zeng Huaqian, Lei Juewen directly called Huang Chengmei in. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Huang Chengmei is not bad, but in the entertainment industry where there are so many beauties, she will only look very ordinary, very ordinary, she is not suitable for the entertainment industry, and she is not suitable for becoming a screen actress, Lei Juewen directly said his thoughts and let Huang Chengmei make her own decisions. He arranged a job for Huang Chengmei in ATV for the sake of Zeng Huaqian's face, and he didn't care if Huang Chengmei was willing to stay and work at ATV.
When Huang Chengmei heard that she couldn't join the training class, she was naturally disappointed, but after hearing that she could work in ATV, she happily agreed. In the case of not being able to enter the ATV training class, she originally needed to look for a job, and now that there is a good job in front of her, she will naturally not be stupid to refuse. Although she doesn't know what the job is, she thinks that as long as she is not in charge of cleaning, it is a good job. And the big boss of ATV said that he would arrange a job for her, so she would not believe that it was a job like cleaning.
After Huang Chengmei, Lei Juewen interviewed the rest of the students and scored them according to their performance.
At the end of the interview, Lei Juewen naturally does not need to deal with this kind of thing personally, and ATV will arrange employees to deal with this matter.
The second phase of the ATV actor training class will start in three days, and before that, Lei Juewen has other things to do.
In the new art city, Lei Juewen was holding a script and watching, and the big three were sitting on the sofa next to them.
Lei Juewen is holding the script of the second part of the best partner, and he knows the second script clearly, but he asked the big three to make a script by themselves, just to see how it is different from the best partner of the original version, and whether it will be better. The three giants of Xinyicheng are very good filmmakers in this era, Lei Juewen believes in their ability, so he chooses to go around in a big circle.
After a while, Lei Juewen, who had finished reading the script, put the script on the tea table.
"Mr. Lei, what do you think of this script?"
Seeing this, Huang Baiming asked out loud, although both Mecca and Shi Tian had suggestions for this script, most of the ideas and ideas came from him, and he naturally cared most about Lei Juewen's ideas, and didn't want this script to be abandoned, because it was a denial of him.
"The script is very good!"
Lei Juewen nodded in affirmation, although this script is not exactly the same as the original, there are many similarities, there is no change in the theme, only the specific details have changed. Although there were some changes, Lei Juewen was not ready to revise it, and decided to use Huang Baiming's script. He wanted to see what kind of box office the sequel to the best partner would do if the script wasn't exactly the same, and he didn't know the future of the script.
If the second part of the best partner really fails, although Lei Juewen will be disappointed, he will definitely not be angry. Although the money earned by a best partner will not be less, it will not be to the extent that it will make Lei Juewen's heart ache, so naturally he will not be sad.
Mecca heard this: "Mr. Lei, if you say so, the second part of the best partner will use this script?" ”
"Yes, that's the script."
Lei Juewen nodded and asked aloud: "In terms of budget, you should have estimated it, right?" ”
Mecca said: "Because of your foresight Mr. Lei, Ah Sam's salary does not need to be increased, just add some to the man's wife." And because of the experience of the first part, the second part will save a lot of costs in shooting and post-production. Add up to a lot of savings, and this time the cost estimate is only 8 million Hong Kong dollars. ”
Lei Juewen said: "Although 8 million Hong Kong dollars is a lot, and even if the box office breaks 20 million Hong Kong dollars, it will be difficult for the box office on Hong Kong Island to recover the cost, but there are markets in Taiwan Island and Southeast Asia, plus surrounding income, as long as the box office is high enough, it can still make a lot of money." ”
"It's like the best buddy." Shi Tian said loudly.
Lei Juewen looked at the three of them: "In terms of directors and actors, what do you think?" ”
Mecca replied: "I, the man's wife, and Ah Sam will definitely not change, and there are only five more important roles left, namely the boss of the club, the sister of the boss of the club, the patient who escaped from the mental hospital, and the driver and the police chief who used to stimulate King Kong's feelings." Among them, the police chief can continue to invite Inspector Cao to act, and the driver and the mentally ill can invite people to make cameos, and there are not many scenes. In terms of directing, you can let Zhiwei come, and his ability is completely fine. ”
"The director asked Zeng Zhiwei to come, and there is indeed no problem."
Lei Juewen nodded in agreement and said, "The driver will let me make a cameo, and you can find the mentally ill yourself." The two characters of the club boss and the club boss's sister, if you have an idea, say it directly. ”
Mecca said: "The role of the eldest sister of the club, Miss Lin Fengjiao, Miss Hu Huizhong, and Miss Lin Qingxia can be played by one of the three of them if they want, which is conducive to the box office of the film in the Taiwan market." ”
Hearing this, Lei Juewen shook his head directly and said: "Don't think about the three of them, Lin Qingxia has not returned to Hong Kong Island yet, and the role of the eldest sister of the club is different from Feng Jiao and Huizhong's positioning, they can't play this kind of negative role." Not only them, but other actresses in light screen film and television, under normal circumstances, will not play the opposite role. "The actresses of Light Curtain Film and Television are almost all his women, not now, and they will be in the future, Lei Juewen will not let them play annoying antagonists.
Mecca didn't seem to hear Lei Juewen's intimate address to Lin Fengjiao and Hu Huizhong, and nodded when she heard this: "In this case, if you have no opinion, Mr. Lei, we will go directly outside to find an actor to play this role." ”
"You can arrange this."
Lei Juewen nodded and agreed.
Mecca said: "After we discussed the role of the boss of the club, we felt that it would be better to find a Japanese actor to play it, so that it would be easier for the Japanese audience to accept it, and let the best partner receive more box office in Japan." ”
"It's good that you guys have this idea, I couldn't agree more." Lei Juewen nodded in affirmation.
"Among Japanese actors, there is currently one actor who is suitable for this role, and that is Kurata Yasuaki, whether he is on Hong Kong Island or in Japan, he is not very famous, and he is very suitable for playing this role."
After Mecca finished speaking, Huang Baiming said loudly: "The only problem is that Kurata Baozhao is an actor who belongs to Golden Harvest, I don't know if Mr. Lei is willing to ask him to make a film." ”
Kurata Baozhao still knows that Lei Juewen is a well-known Japanese actor who has worked with many big names on Hong Kong Island, and is one of the few very good Japanese actors who mix on Hong Kong Island. However, he doesn't know that this person is now an actor of Golden Harvest, after all, although he has seen Kurata Baozhao's acting experience in his previous life, he will not carefully search which company Kurata belongs to in which year.
"Since you think he is suitable, as long as Jiahe doesn't set up obstacles on his side, my side is fine."
After thinking about it, Lei Juewen agreed. is just an actor, not to mention whether Kurata Hosho will be on fire because of the best partner 2, even if it is a big hit, it can't change the current situation that Golden Harvest can't fight the light curtain film and television.
After the actors and directors were confirmed, Lei Juewen chatted with the Big Three for a while, and then said goodbye and left the New Art City.
