Chapter 404: Smith Zhou is a Star Maker!

"If a rich Philip is played by a white man, then naturally the poor boy DISS is played by a black man, which can more intuitively reflect the relationship between the two protagonists of the film beyond race, wealth, education, class, and culture, and the only message it conveys: people are eager for true love exchange and interaction. The blending of interpersonal temperament and feelings is the most precious and insurmountable. ”

Let the symmetry between whites and blacks, let the audience intuitively see the images of the rich and the poor, and make the protagonist of the film deeper into the body and mind. It can better reflect the theme of our film, the exchange and integration of true feelings. ”

Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and already had some thoughts in his heart, and Zhou Yanfa was naturally excluded.

Then, Zhou Shaoming smoked a cigar and sat on the office chair in contemplation.

Although Zhou Shaoming is also eager to choose Chinese powerful actors to participate in this film, so that he can also have the opportunity to give domestic actors a chance to further their studies, but Zhou Shaoming, as a director, can't do this.

Although it has been determined that the main purpose of this comedy is to be released in time for the Chinese New Year, the movies he shoots will basically be released worldwide for audiences around the world to watch.

With the popularity of "The Fuse" all over the world, Wu Jing's performance has conquered many audiences, so that many fans at home and abroad deeply remember the name Wu Jing, whether it is literary drama or martial arts, Wu Jing has an excellent performance in "The Fuse", realistic, touching and dedicated. This kind of performance made the audience's eyes shine.

But Zhou Shaoming knows it well. This time I am going to shoot "Untouchable". It is impossible to arrange powerful actors of Chinese nationality at all.

It was at that time that Zhou Shaoming gently closed his eyes and summoned the system.

In front of the system, Zhou Shaoming saw several casts from the system illustrated in front of him.

When Zhou Shaoming saw by François. Cruze's name at the time. I can't help but stop and take a closer look. Francois. Crucer's archives.

Francois. Crucey

Gender: Male

Zodiac sign: Virgo

Date of birth: 1955-09-21

Place of birth: France

Profession: Actor

Zhou Shaoming looked at François. Cruced's profile, both in terms of appearance and inner temperament, François. Cruze fits the role of Philip, a wealthy aristocrat in this comedy.

François at this time. Crossey was unknown in Hollywood. However, when Zhou Shaoming chose the role, he didn't think about these at all, no one didn't know that Zhou Shaoming, as a director, was a star-making factory, and in Zhou Shaoming's hands, how many actors were famous and popular.

So, for, Zhou Shaoming. François at this time. It doesn't matter if Cruze is famous or not, what matters. His image and temperament meet the requirements of this film.

Zhou Shaoming opened his eyes and called his assistant Benjamin: "Ben, you make a phone call and find Francois. Crucey, the actor, see if he has a schedule to star in the film of our Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, the film type is comedy, and he will play the role of the number one actor. ”

Benjamin recorded in detail, and when Zhou Shaoming finished speaking, Benjamin asked, "Zhou, where is our script?" I also want the actors to watch it and better win it over. ”

Zhou Shaoming frowned, and said lightly: "This time, due to the urgency of time, we don't have time to talk to the actor in detail first, you just say what I just told you, and ask him if he is willing to come to our Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, and must rush to our Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company within two days, otherwise everything will not be discussed." ”

Benjamin took a deep breath, seeing Zhou Shaoming's anxious expression for the first time, and this time the process of looking for a role seemed to give the actor very little space, which was not like Zhou Shaoming's approach, but he still agreed affirmatively: "Yes, director." ”

Whatever? Benjamin still had to do what Zhou Shaoming wanted, and then asked: "Zhou, what happened to Supernova Entertainment that made you so anxious, and it was the first time I saw you looking for a role in a film so anxious." ”

Zhou Shaoming sighed: "Ben, this supernova entertainment comedy shot by me was personally written by the screenwriter boss Aziva in our company, and he will hand in a complete editing outline within two days, and I plan to release this film worldwide in time for the Chinese New Year, so"

Zhou Shaoming said and took a deep breath, Benjamin heard Zhou Shaoming's words, obviously understood the meaning, and at the moment, with a straight expression, he said to Zhou Shaoming: "I know what to do." ”

After Benjamin went out, Zhou Shaoming smoked a cigar.

Zhou Shaoming took advantage of Benjamin's questioning François. On the occasion of Crucey, he summoned the system again to look for the role of DISS, such a black young actor appeared in the system a lot, but Zhou Shaoming never took a fancy to it.

According to Aziva's introduction, this character has to be honed in prison, although he is young, he is full of vitality, but this character has undergone a certain amount of training, so he has to look a little ruffian in appearance, such an actor, Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but sigh.

But it's still easy at this moment, and the two actors in the film "Untouchable" performed very well.

In this time and space, since the white people are already the original team, then the black people can also be the original people!

When next week Shaoming raised Omar. Nozomi's information.

Chinese name: Omar. hope

English name: OmarSy

Zodiac sign: Aquarius

Date of birth: 1978-01-20

Place of birth: Trappes, Yvelines, France

Profession: Actor/Screenwriter/Director

Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up, the role of DISS is none other than him, and this actor is also an actor who has not yet taken the position, so it is easier to negotiate in the case of supernova entertainment facing an emergency.

Zhou Shaoming nodded slightly, opened his eyes, and finally solved the problem of actors.

When Benjamin's trick comes in. Zhou Shaoming was already waiting impatiently in the office.

When Benjamin came in. Zhou Shaoming couldn't wait to ask: "Francois. What did Cruze say? ”

Benjamin said truthfully: "At first. I'll tell us the truth about the fact that Supernova Entertainment is now filming this comedy, François. Cruze originally said that he would have to think about it, but when he heard that it was Zhou You who personally went into battle to shoot and let him play the number one actor. Francois. Cruze stopped thinking about it, and said that within two days, he would rush to our Supernova Entertainment Film and Television to discuss this matter. ”

Zhou Shaoming breathed a sigh of relief. He said to Benjamin, "Very well, here is Omar. Xi is an actor, we will invite him to play the second leading actor in our film, you go and ask. ”

Benjamin looked at Zhou Shaoming's expression and couldn't help but persuade: "Zhou, you don't have to worry so much, I have seen the information you gave me to find these two actors, they have never been famous, if I heard that I can play the leading role in the movie directed by you, I will definitely be overjoyed." How can there be a reason to refuse? ”

Zhou Shaoming sighed and said to Benjamin: "It's not that I'm afraid that the other party won't agree. It's just that we're running out on time. There is no time for the actors to think about it at all, no matter how good the director is at this time, it stands to reason that such a harsh condition is the time that many people need to consider. However, we are short of time, so this time I tried to be as tactful as possible when communicating with the actors, and of course, if they didn't want to come, let me know in time so that I could find other actors. ”

For the first time, Benjamin felt that Zhou Shaoming had such a lot of pressure before filming, and the source of pressure was a matter of time, and what Benjamin could help Zhou Shaoming do at this time was to contact all the actors who needed to be contacted by Zhou Shaoming in these two days.

When Benjamin understood the urgency of the mission, he hurried out again to get busy.

The popularity of "Fuse" in the global release has not yet dissipated. Cruze & Omar. When Xi heard that Supernova Entertainment was about to shoot a comedy, he couldn't help but sigh at the speed of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television's filming.

Compared with the progress of one or two films per year in the past, it has been improved.

When François. Cruze and Omar. When Xi heard that Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company wanted to cooperate with them to play the male lead and male lead in a comedy, they all forgot everything and just blindly agreed to Benjamin.

For François at this time. Cruze & Omar. I hope that if you can show your head in the film shot by Zhou Shaoming, then it will not be far from becoming popular.

There's no doubt that Smith Zhou is a master starmaker!!

Two days!

Zhou Shaoming gave two days, and in these two days, the script of Aziva's "Untouchable" had to be completed.

And the actors have to get Benjamin all right.

I put it myself in the idle time.

Of course, Zhou Shaoming is a person who can't be idle, and since he suddenly has a little free time, he naturally wants to find something to do!

The set is a great place to be.

Now Ben-Tesla is recuperating and not making a movie.

But Supernova has other people making movies.

Zhou Shaoming first called Jon to find out the situation.

"Jon, what about Vendretta?"

"David has already started filming, and the two leading actors are Jim Carrey and Natalie." Jon said.

"You know that V, played by Jim Carrey, needs to cover his face with a mask from start to finish? And it's best not to reveal who the actor is for the time being to the outside media! Zhou Shaoming nodded and said.

Then, Jon was looking forward to Zhou Shaoming and said, "Boss, do you have any good ideas for the publicity plan of "V-word vendetta"? ”

Every time a movie has a publicity plan, Jon asks Zhou Shaoming for the first time, and this habit seems to have been maintained since Jon was still at Lionsgate. Because Jon knows that every time his boss, there will be a different publicity plan.

After listening to Jon's words, Zhou Shaoming said with a smile: "You can hold another parade, and this time everyone will wear V's masks and cloaks." It's okay to go out for a walk, and the other thing is that you can design an event where the audience can guess which star is the main star, and if you guess correctly, we will give him a big reward. Of course. Early stage. We can't reveal the true identity of the actor. ”

After listening to Zhou Shaoming's thoughts, Jon's eyes suddenly lit up, this is indeed a good way, not only to add mystery to the movie. Indirectly, it also gives the audience more opportunities to participate in the movie.

"Okay, boss, you're a great idea, but what are our prizes set up? The setting is high. If many people guess it, it will not bring huge losses to the company, and if it is set low, it is estimated that it will not play the role of publicity. After thinking about it, Jon picked out the loopholes in Zhou Shaoming's thoughts. In the complementarity of the two, the idea will continue to improve.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Shaoming soon said to Jon: "We can do this, now that Supernova has already started to create its own theater?" You can exchange the prize for a coupon for a theater owned by Supernova Entertainment, which can not only promote V-Info for Vendtle. Indirectly, it can also make a name for our theaters, of course. That's not enough to catch everyone's attention. ”

After a pause, in Jon's expectant gaze, Zhou Shaoming said with a smile: "You can conduct a random lottery among these people who guess correctly, and the audience who wins the lottery can get a reward of 100,000 US dollars, and you can also have the opportunity to be assigned a role in my next movie." That's attractive enough. ”

After thoroughly understanding Zhou Shaoming's thoughts, Jon smiled and said to Zhou Shaoming: "Boss, can I also participate in this activity?" ”

After hearing Jon's words, the two looked at each other and both laughed happily.

Even the CEO of the organizer wants to participate, is the feasibility of this publicity plan still questionable?

"Alright, you can get these things! By the way, type out the genre and name of my next movie! Give me another estimate! Put it on Facebook to promote it, and then get it on the official website as well. Zhou Shaoming continued.

"Okay, boss!"

"By the way, there is also Wu Jing, after the filming of "Fuse" is completed, his popularity is high! Can't waste it, this time I can't use him for this movie! Let him talk to Ben Tesla more and see if Ben can get a proper role for him in his next movie. ”

"Okay, boss, I got it!" Jon nodded and went straight out.

And Zhou Shaoming walked out of the office and walked towards the set.

"V-Word Vendetta" has already started filming, and Zhou Shaoming has to go to see it to rest assured.

On the set, when Zhou Shaoming arrived, he was just in time for Natalie to shoot the scene.

Zhou Shaoming was standing there from a distance, and director David and some other staff members saw it.

But under Zhou Shaoming's signal, no one greeted him, and he was still shooting.

In the shooting scene, Evie, played by Natalie, is full of nervousness at the moment, and she perfectly embodies the expression of a girl when she is afraid.

Even Jim Carrey, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

"She's really a showgirl, she was born for the stage! It's just that what I didn't expect was that she was so interested in her own knowledge. Zhou Shaoming said to himself, obviously this scene alone made Zhou Shaoming feel very satisfied, and after speaking, his eyes converged on the scene again.

"She's just scaring us." The policeman named Willy looked at Natalie and said with a smile.

The middle-aged man on the side hurriedly echoed: "That's it, that's it." ”

Natalie was like a flower cat that had been enraged, and her whole body was erected, and the spray in her hand was aimed at the two men.

"Do you know what that means? That means we can use the jurisdiction. The middle-aged man said as he took out a document from his pocket and put it in front of Natalie.

When she saw this sign, Natalie's face showed a complicated expression, there was fear and fear in it, there was also bravery, but more, it was still incredulous, and she even put down her own hand.

"You're a secret police?" Natalie looked at the two men in front of her with some disbelief.

"She's starting to believe it." The man said with a smile.

"Pay attention to the camera cuts, and our hero, get ready, you're about to play, are you ready to rescue your beauty?" The filming process was smooth, and David's mood was naturally very good, and he joked with Jim Carrey on the side at this time.

Zhou Shaoming smiled slightly, very satisfied, it seems that David and the actors get along very well.

Compared with a big name like Jim Carrey, David is indeed a small director and a new director.

Originally, Zhou Shaoming was worried that David might not be able to tame Jim Carrey, but now it seems that he has thought too much.

Despite wearing a mask, Jim Carrey laughed, checked his outfit, and was ready to go on stage.

"No, I didn't know just now, I'm sorry." Natalie looked at the two secret policemen and said with a little pleading.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man said coldly: "I can't talk about regrets, but you will understand, when the sun rises, if you are not the most unlucky woman in all London, it will be the most regrettable." ”

After saying this, Natalie's face seemed to flicker a little, and then she turned her head sharply, as if she wanted to run away, but a man suddenly appeared behind her, grabbed her, and put a knife on her neck.

Natalie realized that the situation was not good, and pleaded, "Oh my God, I beg you, don't do this." "The expression on his face was on point.

Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but smile, in general, Natalie's acting skills are very good, and at the same time, he also realized the real difficulty of this movie. (To be continued.) )
