"What do you think?"

Wang Zhongjun bowed his hand, "If you play this leading role, then you will have to be said that you are selling your ass to the top position." ”

"Do you want me?"

Huo Yunting nodded, this is also true. If you really shoot this protagonist, it is more serious than black spots, just like the ancient ink punishment stabbed on the face.

An unfamous actor is called selling his position, and a famous actor is called dedicating himself to art.

"Mr. Wang, does Director Li want me to play Kuang Yumin?"

"Yes, Director Li means to let Ling play Wang Jiazhi's boyfriend."

Huo Yunting rubbed his chin, "Then you can think about it." ”

If he doesn't rush to anything else, he is directed by Li Yu, even if this film is AV, he is willing to give it a try.

"Pushing Hands", "The Wedding Banquet", "Eating Men and Women", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", are basically making a hit.

It can be said that the word Li Yu is the biggest attraction for actors.

Put down "Lust and Caution" and pick up the script called "Big Diamond".

Director: Ning Hao.

I thought about it in my head, but I hadn't heard of it. The director is not estimated to be too famous.

But the film made by such an unknown director can be placed together with Li Yan's script, so there is something to talk about.

"I found this script, and it feels like it's right for you."

"yes, then I'll have to take a good look."

took a look at the introduction of this "Big Diamond", and it is nothing particularly outstanding, it is about a few groups of people grabbing a diamond.

But as soon as he looked at the content of the script carefully, Huo Yunting fell into it.

After nearly half an hour, Huo Yunting closed the script and squinted in contemplation.

He only has two words in his head at this moment, awesome.

This director is definitely a genius, such a simple story, let him tell it so interesting. Ring by ring, this black humor is simply amazing.

Literature and art are combined with commerciality.

No wonder this script can be put together with Li Yan's, it all depends on the quality to put together this table.

He thinks that this script is very awesome, not to mention Wang Zhongjun, who has excellent business vision.

"Mr. Wang, which role do you want me to play?"

"Brother Dao."

This is the boss of the gang of thieves in the script, which may not match Huo Yunting's personal image. But since he can even play a role like Xiaogen, it is not a problem to play a black boss.

"It's not the male lead......" Huo Yunting rubbed his chin.

"The male protagonist is not for you." Wang Zhongjun paused, "You are too handsome." ”

"Xiao Huo, take a look for yourself, which of these two films do you think is more suitable for you." He paused, "Personally, I think 'Big Diamond' is better." ”

Wang Zhongjun may not understand movies, but he is definitely the one who understands business the most.

In terms of short-term interests, the film "Big Diamond" can be said to be the best choice because of its high script quality, low cost, short shooting time and quick results.

The only drawback may be that Huo Yunting's salary will not be too high.

After pondering for a while, Huo Yunting asked, "When did this "Big Diamond" start?" ”

"Maybe it's like July or August."

"What about Lust and Caution?"

"This is not necessarily, because Director Li only has a prototype of a script now, not to mention the male and female protagonists, and even the investors have not been found."

"I wanted to invite you because I watched the Cannes Film Festival. Twenty-three-year-old nominated actor, Director Li is very interested in you. ”

Huo Yunting suddenly realized, it seems that his nomination as an actor really has a lot of benefits.

pondered in his heart, waved his hand, and the two scripts were slapped together, "Mr. Wang, I want them all." ”

Wang Zhongjun was also stunned, "You want them all?" ”

"Xiao Huo, you can come down first for "Big Diamond", but if "Lust and Caution" is not good, you will have to wait until next year to shoot, and if there are other good films during this period, you may have to miss it."

Huo Yunting also thought very openly, "Didn't people say that it was okay to say whether this film could be filmed, so you should come down first." ”

His purpose is very clear, one is an extremely excellent script, which Wang Zhongjun affirms, so he must not miss it.

The other is the script of the famous director Li Yu, and he doesn't want to let go.

Anyway, these two pieces of time are separated, and it is estimated that the time between them is not short, so it is better to come down and talk about it.

Over the years he has been in the industry, he has made one thing very clear, good scripts are available but not sought.

If you can't come across a good resource, the next time you encounter it may be a few years later. But how many new horns will be born in a few years?

"But I have to mention one thing, do you know that this film is dangerous?" Wang Zhongjun bit down on the word danger.

"No hurry, wait. Anyway, you should come down first. ”

Seeing him say this, Wang Zhongjun no longer persuaded him.

"You can handle these things yourself. I will give you the contact information of Ning Hao and Li Yan, and you and these two directors can negotiate privately. “

"Yes, that's troublesome Mr. Wang."

After getting the contact information of Ning Hao and Li Yu, Huo Yunting walked out with two scripts.

"Xiao Huo, I really don't want to change to our company's gold agent?"

"Mr. Wang, I have a tacit understanding with Lao Zhang, and I'm used to it."

"That's okay, go slowly, don't send it."

After leaving the company, Huo Yunting first called Li Yu and asked questions about "Lust and Caution".

Kuang Yumin temporarily responded to the role, and Li Yu was also very happy, and revealed some questions about the choice of male and female protagonists with him.

"The male protagonist is here, he is currently negotiating with Liang Chaowei, and it is estimated that he can negotiate it."

"It's that the heroine's side may be a little troublesome, and I haven't thought about it yet. I imagined Zhang Ziyi, Shu Qi, Liu Yifei ......"

Huo Yunting's eyelids jumped when he said this, good guy, you won't let go of the underage girl. If he said this in front of Liu Yifei and her mother, Huo Yunting would have doubted that Liu Xiaoli would be able to tear him up on the spot.

"Yunting, I remember that you cooperated with Liu Yifei before, right? What is "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". ”

"What do you think of Liu Yifei? Is it appropriate? ”

"That's too inappropriate, Director Li, the first person you excluded should be her." Huo Yunting said righteously, "I am still familiar with her, and she is not suitable for wearing cheongsam." ”

"The body is too flat, and I can only wear loose clothes. Otherwise, why would she keep acting in costume dramas. ”

Ang Lee's script is rather sloppy, but it emphasizes that the heroine must be beautiful in a cheongsam, which shows how much he values this.

"Well, I'll think about it then."

Huo Yunting relaxed slightly, and asked again if there was an approximate time for the filming of this film.

"I'll talk about it when I'm done with the script."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunting thought about it and sent a message to Liu Yifei.

[Someone invited you to take a picture of the color ring and immediately refused, saying that your schedule was full. 】

Soon, the sound of mobile phone vibration came, [What is the color ring? Why refuse? 】

Huo Yunting had a toothache for a while, how could he explain this to her?

It's a simple underage girl, and it's not appropriate to tell her this.

[Just believe me]

After a long time, I replied.

【Oku】

After chatting with Liu Yifei, he called Ning Hao non-stop. This question, good guy, people are now from Beiping.

"If Mr. Huo is also in Beiping, then let's have a meal? Let's talk to each other in person. ”

"That's a good feeling, I have a lot of questions about our film, I want to talk about it in detail."

hung up the phone, and not long after, Ning Hao sent the address, and Huo Yunting drove there.

Private room 666, push the door and enter, and see a flat-headed man smoking a stuffy cigarette. When I saw someone coming in, I hurriedly got up.

"You are Mr. Huo Yunting?"

"Director Ning, I've admired my name for a long time."

The two shook hands and sat down to talk about the film "Big Diamond".

After chatting, I learned that the prototype of this script had already existed around 00, but in the past five years, it has been deleted, deleted, and changed, and it has been two books since the beginning.

Ning Hao is a more reserved person, and his words are always very rigorous. He said a bunch of overturned words, and he was a little uncomfortable to listen to.

"Director Ning, how much do we invest in this film?"

As soon as he heard him say this, the expression on Ning Hao's face froze, and then he said sullenly, "More than three million." ”

"That's it?" Huo Yunting's face was different, "This investor is too picky." ”

Only more than three million were given. This is almost catching up with Director Wang's piece.

"If you have to say it, the investor is Andy Lau. He launched an 'Asian Rising Star Director Program' to give some new directors the opportunity. I took more than 3 million from him for this piece. ”

Huo Yunting was a little silent for a while, this was too little.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ning Hao was afraid that he would regret it, so he hurriedly spoke, "Mr. Huo, don't worry about this." More than three million to support our film is definitely enough. ”

"If it's not enough, I'll sell the house myself to make up for the difference."

Huo Yunting felt a little strange for a while, how could this be the same as Wang Dao's whole......

"Director Ning, where is our filming location?"

Ning Hao talked eloquently, "I have found a lot of locations for this location, including Chongqing, Guangzhou and several other cities. But I went to Chongqing a few months ago, and after a trip there, I chose to go for the two thousand. ”

"Chongqing is an emerging metropolis, and its rapid growth has led to its complexity and uncertainty. And—"

“OK！ OKOK, okay I got it. ”

Huo Yunting hurriedly stopped him.

These gang of directors are endless, and when it comes to the creative background, the connotation is endless. In high school, reading comprehension must be a perfect score.

"Director Ning, don't you consider changing your name? "Big Diamond" was dissuaded. ”

"I'm a wasted name, and I can't think of a good name." Ning Hao held his cheeks and thought for a while, "Why don't you call it "Big Stone"?" ”

"Hmm...... To be discussed, to be discussed. ”

Huo Yunting pondered, and suddenly thought of a film he had watched in the crew of "The Condor Heroes" before.

Mad Max.

He didn't feel good about the film, and he was drowsy watching it. But that's a good name.

"Then it's better to call it 'Crazy Stone'."
