Since Lin Yuquan's acquisition of Summit Entertainment, Summit Entertainment has been attracting the attention of the national media, especially the media in Los Angeles, who are always keeping an eye on the movements of Summit Entertainment, and they will not let go of the wind and grass, because everyone knows that Lin Yuquan's acquisition of Summit Entertainment is not to be the boss with peace of mind, but to come to Hollywood to make movies, Kung Fu Lin's first Hollywood movie, too many people are full of curiosity and expectation about it. ⌒，←x.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, especially when someone pays special attention, many secrets can't be hidden at all, not to mention that neither Lin Yuquan nor Summit Entertainment deliberately blocked the news, so as early as Lin Yuquan found Alex. When Kuzman was in the time, the media reporter knew that Lin Yuquan should be preparing the script.

It's not hard to speculate that Alex. Who is Kuzman, he is one of the newly rising screenwriters in Hollywood in the past two years, and of course he came to Summit Entertainment to co-create the script, and the collaborative project is not his choice except for Lin Yuquan's movie.

Although I couldn't find out the specific situation of Lin Yuquan's new movie, when the "Los Angeles Times" reported this speculation, it seemed like a very short news, but in just one day, it quickly attracted the reprint of major media and countless fans and filmmakers who cared about Lin Yuquan's first Hollywood movie, and then many people began to become excited, and eager to learn more information about the movie, whether it is an epic war, costume martial arts, or science fiction, horror film, and what kind of story is told, People want to know more.

However, Summit Entertainment has not been announced to the public, and naturally, the person who seeks the answer falls to the Los Angeles media reporter. But Lin Yuquan immediately returned to China. Immediately the hopes of the media were dashed.

And wait until Lin Yuquan returns to the United States again. Reporters immediately turned their attention to him again, but the search for Lin Yuquan's new film was never satisfactory, during which Lin Yuquan regretted not winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film again, and then went to the Sundance Film Festival, where he bought the rights to "Hostess" for $5 million.

For media reporters, this is undoubtedly a failure, and everyone knows that Lin Yuquan's new film is a topic of great attention. But they can't get more definite information, and that's a sad thing.

It wasn't until Lin Yuquan went to Wellington, New Zealand, that the media reporters became excited again, what New Zealand has, mutton, deer antler, wool, dairy products, pleasant climate, beautiful scenery, but what does this have to do with Lin Yuquan, but no one thinks that he is going on vacation, and only Peter has anything to do with the movie. Jackson and Weta are digital. Peter. Jackson usually lives in Beverly Hills, and is obviously not looking for him. The answer suddenly became extremely clear, Lin Yuquan went to Weta Digital, and what else could he do when he went to Weta Digital, of course, was to make special effects for his own new movie

Looking at Weta Digital's works in recent years, the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "King Kong", "The Chronicles of Narnia" and the "Avatar" being done, all of them are super blockbusters, and the specifications of Lin Yuquan's new movie are about to come out, it will be a big production.

At this moment, Lin Yuquan's fans are naturally jubilant and full of expectations, the special effects of "Painted Skin" are already so amazing, if Lin Yuquan wants to make a Hollywood-sized super blockbuster, then what should the special effects be shocking.

Just when everyone was looking forward to it, Summit Entertainment announced the information on the official website for the first time after the acquisition, but it was not Lin Yuquan's movie, but this information still caused a great sensation in an instant, and Summit Entertainment will spend $60 million to shoot the best-selling author Stephanie. Mel's "Twilight", and Lin Yuquan served as the producer.

Nani, "Twilight", the popularity of this novel in North America is naturally famous, this is in recent years, second only to "Harry Potter" best-selling novel, the film adaptation of this novel is of course eye-catching, especially "Twilight" is even more excited, 60 million US dollars is enough to create a wonderful "Twilight" movie version, have left messages on the official website of Summit Entertainment: "Oh, Twilight, this is my favorite novel, it's great to be made into a movie." "Be sure to choose a handsome and perfect Howard, and I will definitely go to the cinema to support it when the time comes." "I'm looking forward to seeing who will play Isabella."

Of course, not everyone is optimistic, Warner Bros. veteran producer Kelly. In an interview with the new film, Smith said in passing: ""Twilight" is of course a best-selling novel, but its idol love nature makes it difficult for its adaptation to sweep the world like "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter". ”

This is actually the opinion of the vast majority of media and film experts, due to the limitations of "Twilight", they are not optimistic that "Twilight" can replicate the box office myths of "Harry Potter", "Jurassic Park" and other films, otherwise there would not have been only a few small film companies to buy the film adaptation rights of "Twilight".

Whether it's Lin Yuquan, or Stephanie. Mel ignored such doubts, the outside world was disturbed, and the preparation of "Twilight" was proceeding step by step.

Summit Entertainment then announced on its official website: "The director of "Twilight" has locked Chris. Columbus, producer Lin Yuquan and novel author Stephanie. Mel thinks she's the best candidate for a film director, and she's bound to make a great "Twilight" movie, and "Twilight" will be cast in the near future. ”

This is undoubtedly another bombshell news, Chris. Who is Columbus, although he has been a little quiet in recent years, but when it comes to "Home Alone", the success of "Harry Potter" has to mention this name, he is one of Hollywood's most important movie giants, and is recognized as the most competent director of family comedy.

Many media and film experts are a little dumbfounded, it seems that Summit Entertainment is really ready to do a big job, super high investment, top directors, Lin Yuquan's help, best-selling novels, these factors all come together, Sensei said, "Twilight" really can't be underestimated. It seems that there is really a glimmer of possibility to create an amazing result.

At this time. Fans of "Twilight" are already rejoicing. At the same time, he stretched his neck and looked forward to the main performances of Isabella, Howard and other characters.

This time the audition for "Twilight" was held in public, due to the fact that none of the actors who became famous met Stephanie. The candidate requested by Mel, so Summit Entertainment announced the character conditions on the official website, and anyone who felt that they were eligible could sign up for the audition, and the audition location was set in a conference hall of the hotel where Lin Yuquan was staying.

The audition was scheduled for the afternoon, and an hour before the audition began, the lounge area outside the conference hall was already packed. This afternoon's audition is for Howard and Isabella, the two male and female leads, and the setting of these two characters in "Twilight" is a typical handsome guy and beauty, it can be said that this audition is indeed eye-catching.

As the producer of the film, Lin Yuquan naturally did not miss this extremely important audition for "Twilight". Mel, Chris. Columbus, Kevin. This is what the Durant four saw when they came to the audition.

Seeing Lin Yuquan and the others coming, the originally noisy rest area suddenly quieted down, and the eyes of all the handsome guys and beauties fell on Lin Yuquan and the others, and their eyes shone with reverence and longing.

Lin Yuquan walked into the conference hall with smiles on his faces, regardless of the results of the audition for the time being, just look at the situation of the auditioning actors. This is a gratifying phenomenon.

"Stephanie, how's it going. I saw a couple of very beautiful girls just now, and maybe Isabella we were looking for was in there. Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Hopefully, Isabella can not only be played by being beautiful, but also needs to match her image and temperament." Stephanie. Mel shook her head, but there was anticipation in her eyes.

"That's for sure, otherwise fans won't do it in the first place, since it's the movie version of "Twilight", it stands to reason that the characters and the characters of the novel fit, Chris has experience with "Harry Potter" in this regard, and he must know how to choose, Daniel. Radcliffe, Emma. Watson, Rupert. Grint's little actors are all very well chosen. Lin Yuquan nodded and said.

"Hehe, that's with Joanne's help, and this time I also need the help of Stephanie and Lin." Chris. Columbus smiled gently.

"Chris, you are too modest, in short, everyone works together to try to make "Twilight" a good film, and now there are many people out there who are not optimistic about us, and then we will give them the loudest response with actual results, and sue them for being wrong." Lin Yuquan said with high morale.

"That's right." Stephanie. Mel was already angry about it.

After the four of them sat down, Lin Yuquan asked the staff of Summit Entertainment to organize an audition, and auditioned for the role of Isabella first.

This time, Lin Yuquan is assisting Chris as a producer. Columbus casts, so the audition did not follow the one by one auditions that he did at home, as he did at home.

Soon after being notified by the staff, the first actor came in, a tall blonde girl with a rather sunny smile on her face.

Lin Yuquan frowned imperceptibly almost at the same time, the appearance of Isabella in "Twilight" is set to look like her mother Renee, 5 feet 4 inches tall, that is, 1.62m, beautiful appearance, pale skin, long reddish-brown hair, dark brown eyes, and her personality is independent, introverted, not good at words, cautious, and observant, the girl in front of her is beautiful, but she is far from Isabella in the novel, she seems to be more suitable to play the little sweetheart.

Of course, everyone didn't immediately deny it, Chris. Columbus said indifferently: "Let's introduce myself, name, age, family, hobbies, and acting experience." ”

The personality of the blonde beautiful girl belongs to the cheerful and positive kind, and when she heard this, she didn't have any fear and nervousness, and said with a bright smile: "Hello director, my name is Tina. Alice, 18 years old, is a senior in high school, her parents are ordinary workers, she likes to act and read, and she had a cameo in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" before this"

In Tina. When Alice auditioned, the young men and women who came to audition in the rest area outside the conference hall were also discussing the topic of audition.

"Ah, the audition has finally begun, I don't know who can be the lucky one, if he stars in "Twilight", he will definitely be like Emma again. Watson, who became a rising star in Hollywood. A beautiful brown-red girl excitedly and longingly said to her friend beside her, a girl with the same brown-red hair and a fresh and sweet face. The two came to audition together. And the acquaintance of the two is also through guò auditions. They met several times during auditions, and the two who were curious about each other became friends after a conversation.

"Hmm." The girl rested her chin in her hand and looked lazily at the rest area with excitement and longing on their faces.

"If you want me to say, Christine, you are definitely the strongest contender in this audition, not to mention your appearance, you have starred in so many movies, and in this regard, there are few people present who can compare with you. And your acting skills are also the best in your age group, if you do get selected this time, hey, it's going to be a big deal. After starring in movies such as "Jumanji 2", "Women's Territory", and "The Courier", the friend she met in her first audition has gone from an unknown young actor to a shining star in her age group.

"Where is it so easy, "Twilight" is not an ordinary movie, like "Harry Potter", acting experience and acting skills are actually secondary, and the most important thing is to conform to the character image and temperament. If others think that my image and temperament are not suitable, no matter how good the performance is, it will not work. The girl named Christine pouted.

"Anyway, I think you're suitable." The beautiful girl smiled like a flower.

"You don't count. It only needs to be said by Kung Fu Lin, director Columbus, and Ms. Mel. Christine joked, looking completely different from the others.

Speaking of which, she doesn't actually have any idea in her heart that "Twilight" became popular and became a high-profile Hollywood star, which may be related to her experience of embarking on the road of acting.

Originally, she didn't have the dream of being an actress or anything, and it was more of an accident to embark on the road of being an actor, when she was 9 years old, she was discovered by a talent scout because of a performance in a Christmas drama at school, but at that time, she didn't want to participate in any chaotic and silly Christmas dramas, just because everyone was on it, so she couldn't go.

After that, she began to participate in auditions under the leadership of her mother, at first she thought it was fun, but after several rounds of interviews, she didn't get a role, she felt bored, it was her mother who frequently used the killer trick of "this is definitely the last time, I won't force you again after trying this time" to make her persevere, and then finally got a small cameo role in a TV series, and then, of course, more intensive auditions, gradually, she became a real actor.

But she's never been interested in being a star or anything, she just likes to act, she likes to tell stories, and she only chooses a movie, and that is that it must have a great story. For her, being an actress is just a job, not that she wants to be a so-called star. The life of a celebrity is so painful that she has no interest in it at the thought of having to wake up at 6 a.m. every day, spend an hour applying makeup, and do so every day of the year.

And today she came to audition for "Twilight" mainly because she likes the novel "Twilight", likes the heroine Isabella, her personality is very similar to herself, and she is eager to play such a role.

Time passes slowly.

"Wow, Christine, it's your turn." The beautiful girl said excitedly.

"Hmm." Christine nodded, a hint of stubbornness flashed in her eyes, and walked resolutely towards the conference hall.

"Sure enough, it's not so easy to find the perfect Isabella." After sending off a beautiful girl, Lin Yuquan said with emotion.

"yes!" Stephanie. Mel nodded, a hint of tiredness on his face, more than twenty people auditioned in a row, but none of them met, which was really discouraging.

Chris on the side. Columbus, Kevin. The same goes for Durant.

"Hopefully the next one will be better." Lin Yuquan sighed.

"Huh!" When Christine walked into the conference hall, Lin Yuquan's eyes suddenly lit up, more than 1.6 meters tall, beautiful appearance, fair skin, long reddish-brown hair, except that the eyes were not dark brown, but green, almost consistent with the appearance of Isabella in the novel, and then look at her temperament, calm and rebellious, independent, this is simply Isabella!

"Hello, let's introduce yourself, name, age, family, hobbies, acting experience." Chris. Columbus said with a smile on his face, clearly satisfied.

Christine nodded and said calmly, "Hello everyone, my name is Christine. Stewart, almost seventeen years old, is currently in high school, my father is a producer on Fox TV, my mother is a film writer, in addition to acting, I love sports, I love reading, writing, watching movies, and I have acted in some movies before, the first was an independent film "Fetish", in which I played a patribsp for a single mother; Clarkson got into a lot of trouble with the tomboy?, and then I played David. Fincher's "Trembling Space" and my most recent film, Sean Brown. Director Pan's "Survival in the Wilderness", which plays a girl with Fleetley's disease, will be released this year. ”

Lin Yuquan's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, he was born in an acting family, has rich acting experience, presumably his acting skills are good, coupled with his suitable appearance and temperament, God, this is definitely the most perfect candidate so far.

Stephanie on the side. Mel couldn't help but say, "Have you read the Twilight novel?" ”

Kristen. Stuart smiled brightly: "Of course, I am a loyal reader of "Twilight", I like this novel very much, and in my opinion, in addition to the fantasy twists and turns of this novel, the most amazing thing is the characterization of Isabella, Howard and others, I love Isabella the heroine the most, I have always felt that I am quite similar to her., they are so stubborn and autonomous."

Lin Yuquan and the others glanced at each other, and they could see that they were satisfied with each other.

"Christine, there's a show here, you can put it on." Chris. Columbus laughed and got up and handed a note to Christine. Stewart.

"Okay." Kristen. Stuart said calmly, took the note and immediately began to massage, after reading it twice, gently closed her eyes, combined with her own understanding of the performance, and continued to interpret what she thought of Isabella in her mind.

In her opinion, acting is a very personal and strange thing. Characters - the experiences, experiences and emotions of others are constantly accumulated in the actors, and they are expressed and released through the actors. Then the most extreme way of expressing the gò is like running all the way, making people out of breath, but once the person stops and takes a deep breath, then the actor also purifies his heart.

Gradually, she finally found the experience and emotion that the role of Isabella needs her to show in the performance, and then opened her eyes and said confidently and calmly: "Director, I'm ready." ”

"Here you go!"

In Chris. After Columbus said this, Lin Yuquan, Stephanie. Mel, Kevin. Durant and himself all looked at Christine expectantly. Stewart.

At this moment, the conference hall suddenly became unusually quiet. (To be continued......)

ps: I delayed it a little, so it was late, and it was still a 5000-word chapter, and I was going to write Lin Yuquan's new movie directly, but it turned out to be biased when I wrote it, but I felt that I should write it.
