Chapter 140: Casting
"Since it was written by Yan Luo, then I will give her the highest price of this script, one million!"
After knowing that the script was Yan Luo, Jin Cheng said very angrily. In his opinion, the investment in Yan Luo's movie is not large, but the rate of return may be very high, maybe tens of millions of investment can be exchanged for ten times the box office, so the script cost of just one million, one word: give!
"If you don't say anything about money, I will fight for Yan Luo, but Yan Luo just said that this script was tailor-made by her for a good friend, so she wants her friend to play the heroine!"
"What?"
Hearing that Yan Luo was going to designate the heroine, Jin Cheng immediately stood up excitedly.
"Nonsense! Does she, a kid who doesn't understand anything, know how to cast? Besides, shouldn't you give priority to the selection of company artists when there are good movies? ”
Jin Cheng unceremoniously decided: "I have already thought about it, the male protagonist will use the legendary boy's Bai Song, he is twenty years old this year, he is handsome and handsome, and it is just right to play the male lead." As for the heroine, I am going to choose one of the newly signed female artists in the company, and then make people popular through this play! ”
"I want to remind you that the script is Yanluo, and if she doesn't agree with you to shoot it, you won't be able to shoot it!"
"What's this?"
Jin Cheng smiled indifferently: "Yan Luo is the company's own person, so he naturally has to focus on the overall situation of the company." Besides, isn't there still you? Mr. Yi! If Yan Luo really doesn't agree, I'll trouble you to help! ”
"I can't promise you!"
Yi Qiuxiang waved her hand and refused.
"Now Yan Luo is in my room, why don't I call her over and talk to her in person?"
"It's good!"
Jin Cheng nodded in agreement.
When Yan Luo walked into Jin Cheng's office, she was still a little nervous in her heart, what if someone called her over to politely refuse?
"Yan Luo, I read your script, and it's okay, so the company intends to make it into a movie. At the same time, as the screenwriter of the script, you are also an artist of our company, so the company will definitely not treat you badly, and we will give you the remuneration of the script according to the highest standard in the industry, that is, one million! ”
Yan Luo listened calmly and didn't say anything, because she always felt that the above words were all Jin Cheng's foreshadowing for the following words.
Seeing that Yan Luo still had an ancient expression after listening to his words, there was neither joy nor fluctuation, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with her, which made Jin Cheng lack confidence, because this was the rhythm of things.
Forget it, if you don't do it, do you still have to hide it in front of a junior?
Jin Cheng gritted his teeth and went straight to the point: "Yan Luo, I'll tell you the truth, this work can be made into film and television, but the so-called fat water does not flow into outsiders' fields, and the actors selected by the company to make movies will definitely be selected from within the company, so the male protagonist I want Bai Song to play, and the female protagonist will be selected from the newcomers in the company." ”
"I have no opinion on Bai Song playing the male lead, but I will decide the female lead!"
Yan Luo said uncompromisingly.
"No way!"
For Yan Luo's exchange, Jin Cheng refused without thinking about it.
"Yan Luo, the heroine of this drama is related to the success of this movie, so I can't let you mess around! In this way, I will give you the price of the script to 1.5 million, so how about leaving the casting of the actors to me? ”
In order to take care of Yan Luo's emotions, Jin Cheng still made a little more flexible, such as using the so-called money to buy roles.
"You decide the male lead, and you also decide the candidates for all other supporting roles, and I can also do without a penny of the script, but I will decide the female lead!"
Yan Luo also took a step back, but the heroine of Ding Shi's painting was her bottom line.
"What if I don't agree?"
Seeing Yan Luo, who was unwilling to give up, Jin Cheng's patience was quickly worn out, as a bigwig in the entertainment industry, he had a lot of time on stage, and he was no longer used to someone going against his will, so after Yan Luo disagreed again, his face turned cold, and his tone began to be aggressive.
"Then I'll take the script away!"
In the face of the threat, Yan Luo remained unmoved.
"Yan Luo, you are an artist of the company, why do you disregard the overall situation so much and don't put the interests of the company first?"
Jin Cheng patted the table and stood up and said sharply.
"I'm sorry, I'm a contracted singer of the company, not an actor, and I'm not a screenwriter, so I can do what I want to do what I write!"
In the face of Jin Cheng's pressing step by step, Yan Luo's anger also came up, and he hated others to oppress people with great truths, obviously for her own selfish interests, she could still say so sanctimoniously that she didn't care about the overall situation, it was really ridiculous!
"Alright, alright! Calm down, everyone! ”
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger and stronger, Yi Qiuxiang hurriedly stood up and started a round.
"Luoluo, Jin Cheng also wants to ensure the correctness of the casting for the sake of the success of the movie, you can talk to him well if you have a request, don't be rash!"
After saying that, Yi Qiuxiang turned around and taught Jin Cheng a lesson.
"You too! Are you all thirty-five or sixteen years old and yelling at teenagers like Yan Luo, don't you feel ashamed? ”
"The script was written by Yan Luo, who to use to play what role, isn't the author the most vocal? Why can't you just listen to Yan Luo finish her words and see if the person she recommends is suitable? Just now at my place, Yan Luo has already told me the basic information of the friend she recommended, the name is Ding Shihua, and the movie I don't love you anymore released on Valentine's Day this year is played by others! ”
"It's me who still loves you!"
Yan Luo couldn't help but correct.
"Pretty much that!" Yi Qiuxiang didn't care.
"The meaning is completely different, okay?"
Jin Cheng also whispered.
But when it comes to this movie, when it comes to Ding Shihua, Jin Cheng has an impression.
As a big man in the film and television industry, he is naturally clear about the dynamics of other companies, actors and works in the circle, and even he has seen every movie released in the cinema, and he can also tell the box office of each movie in one breath, so the one released on Valentine's Day this year I don't love you anymore, phew, I still love you He is very familiar with it, this is a bad movie with a dragging rhythm and scattered plot! But the little actor who played the heroine when she was a student in it played really well, and the name of that little actor is Ding Shihua!
It seems that Ding Shihua has not signed any company yet.
Thinking of this, Jin Cheng immediately changed his mind.
"Qiu Xiang is right, I am arbitrary, and the author Yan Luo who has the most say in the casting is the author, so let Ding Shihua play the actress of the heroine Shui'er!"
Looking at Jin Cheng, whose face changed faster than a book in front of him, Yan Luo was a little at a loss for a while, not knowing what he was thinking in his head.
"That's good, in that case, I'll agree for Yan Luo!"
Seeing Yan Luo standing aside and not speaking, Yi Qiuxiang agreed for her.
"Also, what about Yan Luo's script cost?"
"Don't worry, a million won't be less!"
"Isn't it one and a half million?"
"Alright! One and a half million is one and a half million! ”
Jin Chengyi gritted his teeth and agreed, these are all small money!
