Chapter 166: A Talented Girl Arrives
Chapter 166: A talented woman arrives
"Just call me Yanzai" Regarding Andy Lau's restraint, Lu Yan smiled and waved his hand: "Brother Fa, you sit"
Andy Lau has been very excited since he received a call from Chow Yun-fat in the first two days. Originally, he was quite decadent, and more often than not, he hid at home and watched movies to recharge himself. Now that TVB has blocked it, there is no announcement anyway. Unexpectedly, Chow Yun-sen called and said that Lu Yan actually intended to invite him to star in the movie, which was undoubtedly a very good opportunity for him
The current Lu Yan is no longer the fledgling director of the young boy. "The True Color of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story", Andy Lau has seen them. As for the hot screenings all over the city and the praise that came to his face, he saw them in newspapers and magazines.
The just-concluded Fifth Academy Awards gave him a glimpse of the infinite scenery of this 'ghost director'.
Such a director would invite himself who is being banned by TVB at the moment. Andy Lau, where can you still hold it. Even on the way here, I was very nervous. I am afraid that if I don't perform well, I will lose this opportunity.
Fa Ge has promoted himself several times, and this time it is obviously even more send-off
has known Lu Yan for so long, of course Chow Yun-fat knows a little about this little boss. He smiled and took the lead in sitting down and said, "Andy sit." Don't look at those reports and think how violent Yan Zai's temper is, you will understand when you contact him. ”
Although he is also smiling, Andy Lau obviously doesn't dare to speak as casually as Chow Yun-fat.
"Brother Fa, did you take the script back and read it?"
"It's really distressing to see you give me such a challenging role again"
Seeing Chow Yun-fat's attitude, Lu Yan immediately scolded with a smile: "You don't come, anyway, this role is definitely another image after playing it, Wang Jing has already invited me over, and now I am discussing the script and actors with Brother Xiaodong and them in the conference room." ”
Hearing this, Andy Lau's eyes naturally lit up.
Although Andy Lau did not get the exact invitation and script, on the way here, Chow Yun-fat told Andy Lau about the script of "God of Gamblers". Obviously, Chen Daozai is definitely the number one supporting actor, and he has many scenes
If other directors invite Andy Lau to play a supporting actor in a movie, he needs to consider, then Lu Yan's movie, as long as the script is suitable, he will definitely follow. What's more, this is still when he is blocked, and the other party dares to use himself. And I heard that the one who played against him was Wang Zuxian. With the hot release of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Nie Xiaoqian has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Coupled with the confession at the Academy Awards, Wang Zuxian did firmly establish herself in the ranks of Hong Kong's first-line actresses with a movie, and even she only played a supporting actress, so what does she have to play a supporting actor?
"Wow, you really 'fooled' Wang Jing...... By the way, Andy's role ......" Chow Yun-fat teased Lu Yan a few words, and immediately cared about this issue. Since he brought Andy Lau over, he naturally hopes that the final result is satisfactory to both parties.
And Andy Lau immediately cared about this issue.
Of course, Lu Yan understood Chow Yun-fat's intentions, he looked at Andy Lau with a smile and said, "Andy, you and TVB ......"
"The company wanted to renew a 5-year contract with me and asked me if I had any problems, and I said yes, big problems, 5 years, 5 years is not a short day. I don't want to make any promises for the distant future. I'm asking the company to shorten the term before I can consider it. But the company has a tough attitude and has no intention of doing so. There is no intention of compromising on either side......"
In fact, there is no need for Andy Lau to explain, Lu Yan has already learned a lot about this matter through various channels. With the release of one TV series after another, Andy Lau's popularity in Hong Kong has soared. He began to design his own path after becoming popular on the screen: should he continue to shoot TV series like this, or set his life goals more high, take care of TV and movies, and become an amphibious actor who can control both screen and screen art? After much consideration, he believes that he has a bright future and should put a little pressure on himself. At the same time, he is full of confidence in being a good film actor with the heroism of young people who dare to challenge themselves. He set the goal of "now, my goal is to hope for both TV and movies", and hopes that one day he can fly even higher.
Many people believe that making a TV series is much easier than making a movie, and if you compare the two, the former is inferior to the latter in terms of requirements for directors, actors, cinematography and many other aspects. Aren't there many examples of famous movie actors who disdain to make TV series?
Because of this, it is not difficult to understand that Andy Lau, who has already been addicted to the filming of TV series, puts forward higher requirements for himself. Just when Andy Lau was confidently preparing for drawing his own life blueprint, TVB was also formulating a new plan for the long-term planning of this popular young actor. They asked Andy Lau to sign a five-year contract extension with Taili as soon as possible, in order to achieve a win-win effect of making people more "popular" and Taiwan more "hot".
However, Andy Lau, who is a teenager, does not want to sign a five-year contract extension. He believes that renewing the contract for 5 years is simply tying his own flying heart with a rope. If you sign this contract, how will you still carry out your plan? Perhaps, he has a premonition that there will be a big leap in his career in the past 5 years; Perhaps, he is unwilling to let "wireless" tie his fate with a long line, in short, the arrogance of young people makes Andy Lau go his own way regardless of it, he did not think about it, nor did he consider what kind of consequences "disobeying" would bring to himself.
The newborn calf was not afraid of the tiger, and he refused to sign the contract with a strong attitude.
All the people who shoot TV series are 'wireless' fixed long-term workers, and everyone knows this. In addition to this factor, it is precisely because of Andy Lau's youth and impulsiveness that the whole thing has reached the point of no return.
The negotiations did not reach an agreement, and Andy Lau's life was very difficult. All film appointments were rejected wirelessly; All the footage was cut out; All outings were blocked; All...... In short, a rising red star was suddenly obscured from all light.
Looking at Liu Tianwang, who was eager to talk about this matter, Lu Yan could certainly understand his inner loss and desire for the opportunity to appear in "God of Gamblers".
"Andy, what have you been doing lately?"
Although this question makes people feel a little confused, Andy Lau still replied very seriously: "I have always found the TV videos I used to act in, and watched them one by one, episode by episode. Find out where you fall short and write them down. Then watch other people's films, write down other people's strengths one by one, and then think, ponder, and improve. Director Lu, I very much hope you can give me this opportunity......"
Regarding Andy Lau's answer, Lu Yan did not have the slightest doubt. This has always been called the 'most hard-working artist', and there is no doubt about his hobby and dedication to his career.
Seeing Lu Yan's contemplative appearance, Chow Yun-fat was also a little anxious and said, "Is it that TVB doesn't agree?" ”
"Oh, no." Lu Yan, who came back to his senses, immediately spoke, saving them from misunderstanding and said: "I am now asking Qiang Zai to contact Miss Fang, the problem should not be very big."
Andy Lau, who heard this, and Chow Yun-fat breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
And the reason why Lu Yan fell into contemplation was that he decided to polish Andy Lau with the intention. It is undeniable that the final Liu Tianwang was very successful. It's just that most people don't recognize his singing work and acting skills. And the most common thing on everyone's lips is undoubtedly the sentence "He is very diligent"
Such an answer is obviously not what Andy Lau is only pursuing.
Now that he has such an opportunity, can he be completely released? An actor needs talent. And Lu Yan is convinced that Andy Lau has such a talent
I saw Lu Yan suddenly smile, took out a script from the desk and handed it over: "Andy, although whether you can play the role of Chen Daozai still needs to audition at that time." However, I hope that you will be the one who will end up starring."
A script, a sentence. But it was very profoundly engraved in Andy Lau's heart
"Thank you, Director Lu" Andy Lau, who took over the script, was very excited.
"Usually call me Yanzai, everyone is about the same age, except for filming, they are all relaxed" Lu Yan smiled and waved his hand, Dongcheng Imaging is in ruins, isn't Andy Lau a good actor sent to the door? Lu Yan is confident that he will definitely be able to make this unsatisfactory king popular at that time.
"Yan Zai, when will Andy and I come over for the audition?"
"It's just the past two days, you all think about the script carefully, the film "God of Gamblers" will be shot in a hurry, but I hope you will play your best...... Otherwise, 'fairy hair' will turn back into 'box office poison'."
If anyone else dares to joke with Chow Yun-fat in person with 'box office poison', then only Lu Yan is the only one.
"Your movie, box office guarantee, I never thought it was me."
"You are less here, in case any film smashes the box office, I will make a fool of you"
"Haha......"
Just after the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious, Andy Lau was finally able to insert a few words without a match. Lu Yan's impression on him was indeed not like what was said in those newspapers and magazines
"Boss, Miss Li Bihua said she wanted to see you. She's in the living room right now."
"Huh? Didn't I ask her out, why did she come to the door in person? After a few jokes with Chow Yun-fat, Li Bihua actually visited in person. This...... It really surprised Lu Yan
