Chapter Ninety-Three: A Heaven-Sent Opportunity
Gu Mojie hugged his sister and spent more than an hour watching the casting audition footage of director Nolan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Nolan's "ill-fated fate" in this film is really beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Male number one Cobb, that is, the actor of the Dream Thief, Nolan's original crush was Christian who is known for his "sci-fi tough guy" image. Bel.
Bell was ready to agree, but because "Terminator 4" was also preparing to start filming, the schedule conflicted, and it was yellow.
When it comes to sci-fi IP, in addition to "Star Wars" at the level of the mountain monster, who else can compare to "Terminator"?
And "The Terminator" has made a trilogy, and the position of the protagonist has always been the forbidden side of Arnold Schwarzenegger, and there is no way for the second person to touch it.
If Arnold hadn't chosen to retire from politics to become governor of California, his term of office would end in 2011, and Warner Bros. was unwilling to wait, how would the protagonist of "Terminator 4" get Bale?
It's only natural that Bell chose "Terminator 4" and abandoned "Inception".
All the science fiction movie stars on the planet are proud to be Arnold's "pick-up man".
Nolan, who was frustrated a lot on the issue of the male protagonist, could only find "Little Plum" Leonardo in the end, which is said to be still in contact and has not been finalized.
The estimated start time of "Inception" is the summer of 2009, so there are still eight months to prepare for casting and playing props, and it is normal that people have not decided.
At present, the only person who has been really finalized is the female number one, the deceased wife of the Dream Thief, Mar, and Marion. played by Cotillard;
Saito, the second male "energy tycoon" and the employer of the Dream Thief, is played by Japanese actor Ken Watanabe;
Tom Hardy, who staged the male No. 3 "Eames the Pretender", and the male No. 5 "Pharmacist Youssef" Dilip. Law, the villain "Fisher Son" of Srian. Murphy.
The main characters who failed to choose people include the fourth male and the protagonist's assistant "Arthur the Outpost"; and the second female and the genius girl newcomer "Dream Builder Adrian" who was poached by the protagonist.
"Arthur the Sentinel" has a goal in director Nolan's mind, and he wants to find James Franco in "Spider-Man" to play it, because Nolan feels that Franco is suitable for the kind of "cold and handsome poker face who is taciturn and loyal to his partner".
But Franco turned down his invitation and went to act in a gay film with a conflicting schedule - perhaps because of the kind of temperament that Nolan admired, Franco was so much that he was a gay himself.
The second female "Dream Builder Adrian" has no suitable candidates at all, and Nolan has already flown more than a dozen dissatisfied guys. What the British popular little flower Dan Carey. Knightley, Emily. BrontΓ« was among the ones who were flying.
Frustrated, Nolan relaxed the requirements for the second female lead: it doesn't matter if she is not a famous character, as long as her temperament and personality match the setting in his heart, even if she has only made one or two films, she will become a quasi-newcomer.
Closing the casting requirements, Gu Mojie's heart suddenly moved.
"Wanqing, you guys go back and rest first." Without warning, he asked Ye Minru to turn off the TV. Smiled unnaturally, and went up to the top floor alone.
Lu Wenjun sighed slightly, and glanced at Fei Liluo, both of whom had clear expressions.
"Follow?"
"Go up, Applejack didn't have to avoid us in the first place."
β¦β¦
On the FRP stairs, there was the sound of footsteps, but Gu Mojie did not mean to lower the volume or hang up the phone. The initial avoidance is just a subconscious action.
It's about 10 p.m. Qiantang time, which is 10 a.m. Washington time and 7 a.m. Western time -- the U.S. is as vast as China, with a three-hour time difference between east and west.
The transatlantic phone rang three or four times, and it was answered, and the female voice on the other side was slightly lazy, but more joyful.
Gu Mojie's voice was very gentle: "Are you up yet?" Didn't disturb your sleep. β
Quan Bao'er: "No, I woke up early today." I'm washing up and putting on makeup. β
Gu Mojie: "Happy birthday." β
The historical "four trillion" plan was put forward at the Standing Committee of the State Council on November 5, 2008, which is a historical fact.
It happened to be Kwon Bao'er's 22nd birthday.
Gu Mojie had forgotten to make this call. But since he was in a hurry, he wouldn't waste the opportunity to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.
ββ¦β¦ Did you wait for this call to be made? Quan Bao'er, who was 30,000 miles away, was a little sobbed in his voice, and he was moved fiercely.
Should I be honest? It's better to coax, coax and don't want money.
"Yes, I'm afraid that I will delay your sleep if I hit early." Gu Mojie lied quietly.
"I love you the most, don't you?"
Gu Mojie didn't want to be numb, so he returned to business coldly: "Okay, let's get down to business, I have a birthday gift for you." But first, you have to tell me what you've been up to lately. I haven't known about you for almost two months. β
"You're embarrassed to say it!" Bao'er complained angrily,
"Until the end of September, I was playing songs. I'm making a movie this month, probably until February next year -- according to what you said, CAA gave me a song and dance film "Make-Your-Move", a small production of more than 10 million. The film is not very good, but she is playing the heroine.
The agency was very helpful, and Carter mediated a bit and contacted two more publishers. Judging from the current intentions, it is estimated that it can be released in the United States, South Korea, and several Nordic countries in the end, and other markets are not interested in introducing it. β
Dance stars make song and dance films, which belong to their true colors, and they can add at least two points to their acting skills. was originally a scumbag with 6 points of acting, but he could also get 8 points after acting in a song and dance film.
You don't see Zhou Jielun, who has never only "acted in his true colors", but also relied on "The Secret That Can't Be Said" and "Rooftop Love" to brush up on the grid.
"Have you studied acting properly?"
"Of course I learned! In the past two years, there have been no concerts in the United States, and the light of the song is honestly more empty than in Japan. If you want to learn, you can still squeeze out time, and in the crazy evil supplement for a while, I have consulted many famous Hollywood teachers. β
Bao'er said something serious, and then reminded of the hard work, and couldn't help but add a few complaints,
"Even after making the movie, the amount of exercise every day is really much less. I used to dance for at least seven or eight hours, but now I don't dance anymore, and I almost gained ten pounds. Later, I found a new sport, practiced boxing for an hour and a half every day, and finally controlled my weight. β
Gu Mojie almost sprayed rice when he heard this.
Boxing? Jun Ji-hyun's kind of violent woman wouldn't go to boxing!
But in the past few years when Bao'er made movies, she really practiced boxing to survive.
Don't look at Bao'er on the screen, so slender and sturdy. In fact, after intimate contact in private, Gu Mojie knew that Bao'er's meal was definitely the largest among all his women - even more than Gu Mojie himself.
The staple of dessert coffee is almost non-stop, so that she can withstand the consumption of high-intensity physical exercise every day for ten years.
Gu Mojie and Bao'er are so familiar, of course they know that the other party is "equipment sports blind". I don't know how to play ball or anything like that, and I'm still a landlubber who will drown if I fall into the water.
But because she has been practicing dance for more than ten years, Bao'er's body coordination is really strong, and her steps are smart and steady. Playing taekwondo and boxing is said to be a master.
Thinking about it this way, the setting is not so unacceptable.
"Whether it's practice or practice, you and a song and dance star like Zhou Jielun turn to a movie, in fact, the best route is the three-stage development trajectory of 'drama-song and dance film-action movie'. Although song and dance films are the most suitable for you to act, after all, the audience is too small, and some can only go to literary theaters. If you can coordinate your athletic performance talents and develop action movies, your reputation will be easy to reach a higher level. β
Gu Mojie still has one last sentence that he hasn't said: With Bao'er's talent, it is estimated that he will take the route of acting strength, and he won't even think about it after ten years of tempering.
Everyone has their own talents and specialties, and it is impossible to be omnipotent, so you must know how to make trade-offs.
Listening to Gu Mojie's encouragement, Bao'er's voice couldn't hide the smugness: "Huh? Really? That's what the people at CAA told me. When you say that, I feel more confident in my boxing. β
"How is it not true? Zhou Jielun has been in contact with Hollywood people recently, saying that the other party is preparing a script called "The Green Hornet", which is an action movie, which is a normal idea. β
Bao'er was full of joy and said: "Then I must pay attention to "The Green Hornet". β
"Don't pay attention to 'The Green Hornet,' let's listen to my birthday present first -- I bought Legendary Pictures, and my director Nolan is preparing a blockbuster "Inception" with a current investment of $100 million. I'm very optimistic and think there are some roles you can fight for.
This film, the U.S. market will eventually be handed over to Warner Bros. for distribution, after all, it is the old owner of Legendary Pictures; I will send someone to handle the distribution in other markets around the world. β
A big production with an upfront budget of 150 million! In 2008, there were less than 10 such films in Hollywood history. What's more, Nolan was nominated for the Oscar for Best Screenplay in 2000 for "Fragments of Memory", and later the Batman series also brushed a lot of forced styles.
Famous director big production!
Asians from ancient times to the present, Uncle An has won the Best Foreign Language Film Award, and a Japanese actress in the 50s has won the 'Best Supporting Actress'. And the best male lead, female lead, and supporting actor have not appeared in an East Asian for decades (Asian-Americans are not counted)
As long as it is related to the Oscars, even if it is just a nomination, it will have a fatal attraction to all people in the Asian entertainment industry.
What's more, Koreans still have a serious sense of hierarchy, feeling that people who make movies are nobler than TV dramas, and those who make TV series are nobler than pure singers.
Quan Baoer has been a Japanese and Korean diva for eight years, and there is nothing to continue to rise on the road of singing except coming to the United States. In order to go to the next level, she began to get involved in the film industry, wanting to make up for what she has always lacked.
Listening to Gu Mojie's gift, Quan Bao'er felt that her heart was a little unbearable. But her last dignity and discipline made her still reluctantly clarify:
"You...... Are you trying to shoehorn me in with money? I'm afraid I'm not worthy, that's not good......"
"Of course I'm fair and just. As an investor and employer, I would give Nolan advice to give you the opportunity to audition and make sure you have a role. But how important a role you can play, I will leave it to Nolan to judge fairly, and I don't want you to be pointed at behind your back. β
"Thank you...... Whining...... Do not say. β
Gu Mojie didn't wait for Quan Bao'er's thanks, there was nothing more to say.
"Then you get ready first, and I'll help you contact the audition in a few days. The script and the information of each character, you go and learn it first. (To be continued.) )
