Chapter 343: Pick Me, Pick Me

It would not be wrong at all to use the word "anticlimactic" to describe Admiral Hasting's sweeping operation.

At the end of December, the armed fleet that entered the chain of pearl islands seemed to be so vicious that it was about to blast the demons to pieces, but only a few days later, before the nobles of the Emerald Province could start a heated discussion, this powerful armed fleet withdrew and returned to the province as if they had just traveled at their collective expense......

The staff officer of the fleet, who came forward on behalf of Admiral Hasting, explained this stunned result: "Ahem, the progress of the fleet is going very smoothly, and the progress is expected, but unfortunately, the Admiral has to temporarily evacuate and recuperate because he is worried about the future of the empire and has been thinking hard in the middle of the night and unfortunately contracted a cold......

Well, this reason is really awe-inspiring, but while those nobles are all in admiration, they can't help but collectively secretly slander themselves - "Liar, can you explain to me why a terrifying powerhouse of the silver middle rank can be defeated by a minor illness like a cold?"

Reasonable or unreasonable, anyway, at least with the return of Admiral Hastings and the closure of the door, the original jade province with a strong smell of gunpowder has regained its calm, singing and dancing, and of course the movie still has to be watched, in fact, the long queue at the door of the cinema has already arrived at the port, and if you go to the back, you can only soak in the sea.

Interestingly, unlike Admiral Hasting's sudden silence, the Governor of Grey Mountain and Baron Michael have recently become more and more high-profile, when the box office of "Titanic" exceeded 500,000 gold coins, the Governor suddenly announced that he would hold another grand banquet in the port of Nantes to celebrate the big sale of "Titanic", and invited the nobles and celebrities of the entire province to attend.

There is no doubt that although the banquet started with the Governor and Baron Michael, it was the main creators of "Titanic" who became the focus of the banquet and were enthusiastically pursued. In fact, the demons had only entered the hall for less than ten minutes, and before they could raise their glasses, they were divided up by the fanatical fans......

Blood Scythe was pulled by several middle-aged businessmen to talk about the issue of contemporary spokespersons, Lilu was surrounded by a group of aristocratic ladies asking for autographs, and the abyssal fire demon and ice fire demon actually had their own loyal fans, as for Count Dracula, who had recently become known as a friend of women...... Ahem, this guy is very calm, facing a group of noble ladies with green eyes, he calmly raised three fingers: "First, line up in order; Don't bite my neck, and third, don't call me ......."

Before the third chapter of the covenant, Count Dracula, who is known as a heartthrob, was dragged away by a large group of noble ladies and dragged directly into the small black room behind the banquet hall, Lin Taiping held a glass of wine, watched Count Dracula's clothes and pants fly out of the small black room, and couldn't help but sigh sympathetically: "Pig Instein, I think you can make some special potions for Dracula, such as a small blue pill or something......

"Aha. Why don't you prepare a little for me too?" Before the words fell, Baron Michael, who still had a few lip prints on his face, came up from the side drunkenly and held Lin Taiping's hand. He shook it enthusiastically, "Dear Lin, well done, I want to bless you on behalf of my uncle." Not only because of the big sales of the movie, but also because of ...... Ahem, you know!"

Understand. Completely understood, Lin Taiping nodded understandingly, but asked with a smile: "By the way, I suddenly want to know, how is the dear Admiral Hasting, is his cold better?"

"That guy, his cold seems to be getting worse and worse, and he probably won't be able to go out in a few months. Baron Michael sighed sympathetically, but it looked like he was gloating, "Then again, my uncle was a little disappointed, and it would have been perfect if that Hastings guy had been left on Bloodpaw Island forever to recuperate. ”

"But the problem is, we don't have enough capacity to keep him around. Lin Taiping touched his chin casually, "So, the current situation is not bad, and you know, I'm just a small businessman, I just want to honestly make some hard-earned money and make a few movies with good box office results, as for other things, it has nothing to do with me." ”

"Really? That's a shame. The look of disappointment in Baron Michael's eyes flashed, but soon, he collected his mood and couldn't wait to ask, "Aha, speaking of movies, dear Lin, do you have any new shooting plans for the future?" Although "Titanic" is still very popular, as I have watched it sixteen times, I already want to see your new movie. ”

"Of course there is, in fact I'm already planning to shoot. Lin Taiping replied seriously.

"Really?" Baron Michael originally just asked casually, but his eyes lit up when he heard this, in fact, at this moment, the surrounding nobles and celebrities were all full of excitement and couldn't wait to surround them, especially those noble ladies and noble ladies, who were full of stars and folded their palms, lest they miss every next word.

"That's right, I've already written the script. Lin Taiping replied with a smile, but under the gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes around him, he touched his chin with some distress, "However, there are a few questions now, I just estimated the cost of this new movie, and now I need nearly 300,000 gold coins, but my funds are not very ......"

"Three hundred thousand gold coins?" Hearing this terrifying astronomical amount, the surrounding nobles and celebrities couldn't help but gasp in unison, but a few seconds later, Baron Michael, who had just recovered from the shock, raised his head without hesitation: "No problem, dear Lin, if you don't have enough funds, I can invest, as much as I want!"

"Invest, invest, we can also invest!" Before the words fell, the nobles and celebrities next to them all reacted, and raised their arms almost neatly, like a large dense jungle.

"Are you sure?" Lin Taiping looked at them in surprise, and said very sincerely, "To be honest, 300,000 gold coins, that's not a small amount, I'll think about it seriously." ”

Don't think about it, what else do you need to think about? Baron Michael and a large group of nobles and celebrities all shook their heads neatly, thinking about it with a waist plate, the more they invested in a movie. The more amazing the income, you must know that "Titanic" only spent tens of thousands of gold coins to shoot, and earned almost 500,000 yuan, so the profit that can be brought by the new movie that costs ten times more than ten times the shooting cost can be ...... In a word, stupid people will miss the opportunity to make money!

"Well, if you insist. Lin Taiping sighed helplessly, but after thinking about it, he frowned slightly, "However, even if the problem of funds is solved." We still have a big problem -- yes, because this new film is so big, we need a lot of actors, mind you, I'm talking about a lot of people, at least a hundred people even if you count all kinds of tricks with lines. ”

"So?" Baron Michael and the nobles and celebrities looked at each other, wondering why the conversation had suddenly turned to the actors.

"So, our demons are not enough. Lin Taiping counted them seriously. "You see, we need a few handsome men and women to play elves, we need a group of strong guys to play orcs, and we need a group of brave human knights. We also need a couple of great magicians with great personable demeanor, we also need a lot of beautiful ladies and misses, and we also need ......"

Well, listen as he counts it down in one go. The aristocracy and celebrities are already a little dizzy, what kind of movie is this, and so many actors are needed. Baron Michael was even more dizzy when he heard it, and couldn't help but directly raise his hand and interrupt: "Enough, enough, Lin, don't say it, just tell me how I can help you." ”

Waiting for this sentence, Lin Taiping suddenly smiled so kindly, and said casually: "It's very simple, in order to solve the problem of the shortage of actors, I plan to ask your help, Lord Baron, to hold a large-scale ...... in the port of Nantes Hmm, large-scale, actor auditions!"

Baron Michael wanted to pat his chest to assure him, but when he heard the last word, he couldn't help but be stunned, and a large group of nobles and celebrities looked at each other, completely confused by this strange word.

"Well, you can think of it as an open choice. Lin Taiping touched his chin in distress and tried to explain to them, "Anyone, regardless of race, age, status, as long as you feel that you have enough conditions, you can come to participate in this event, and we will select the most suitable ......person from it in an open, fair and fair choice."

"Is it similar to an election?" Baron Michael seemed to understand a little, and after thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask, "And then?"

"Then, the chosen ones can become actors in our new films. Lin Taiping replied very seriously, and patted Baron Michael on the shoulder, "For example, just to give an example, for example, we need a supporting actor in our new movie, and he will have a relationship with the elf princess played by Lilu, so if Baron Michael is interested......"

"Yes! There can be no more!" Hearing the words Lilu and emotional drama, Baron Michael was so excited that his face flushed, "Dear Lin, you know, I have always been a big fan of Miss Lilu, and I am very good at this kind of emotional drama...... Ahem, by the way, does this relationship include a kiss scene?"

Before Baron Michael finished speaking, several middle-aged nobles next to him suddenly became angry, and they didn't care who Baron Michael's uncle was, so they rushed up angrily: "Dear Lin, don't listen to this guy's nonsense, when it comes to the love for Miss Lilu, who can beat me, and I was an amateur opera actor in my early years, and I have a lot of acting experience......"

Very good and powerful, watching a few men fight for themselves, Lilu next to him was really completely speechless, but Lin Taiping finally couldn't stand it, and coughed lightly and said: "Calm down, calm down, gentlemen, please calm down a little, I haven't finished talking yet, in fact, you all have the opportunity to play against Lilu, but the premise is ...... You're going to be in this draft and we're going to be recognized as a supporting actor. ”

Well, thanks to him, a few guys who were about to be beaten up finally let go, Baron Michael straightened his messed collar, raised his head proudly, and looked at a few middle-aged nobles with that contemptuous gaze: "A group of fools, when you participate in the draft, Lao Tzu will tell you every minute, what is a natural actor!"

Who would be afraid of you? Hearing this, several middle-aged nobles immediately widened their eyes, but before they could speak, a middle-aged lady next to them suddenly raised her hand, blushing and shyly saying: "That, Mr. Lin, can I understand it like this, if I participate in this draft, will I also have a chance to play against Mr. Dracula?"

"Yes, and if I'm not mistaken, it's a bed...... Ahem, you get the idea. Lin Taiping blinked innocently, directly ignoring the noble lady who had fainted, but looked at the nobles and celebrities around him with a smile, "In addition, we have provided a lot of characters, gentlemen, if you want to experience the charm of the movie, if you want to engrave your style in the years, if you want to become a heartthrob like Dracula, then ......"

Don't say anything, don't say anything, a few seconds later, a large group of nobles and celebrities raised their hands very neatly, and asked loudly in unison: "Time, place, and what do you need to bring?"

"A month later, at the port of Nantes, all you need to do is bring your CV. In the fanatical gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, Lin Taiping replied without hesitation, paused slightly, and added very happily-

"Also, remember the name of our cast audition this time, please call it ...... Good actor in the sea!" (To be continued!)
