"Looking for a snow friend to play Nie Wen?" Zhang Guorong hesitated for a moment, and then showed a sudden expression.

Oh, yes!

He's a good fit!

Don't look at Zhang Xueyou, who is famous for his singing, and was also named the Four Kings of Hong Kong Island Music Scene, but he has also developed well in the film field.

And he is in the Hong Kong Island film industry, which can be called a golden supporting role.

He played a lot of classic supporting roles.

For example, Brother Wu Fly in "Mong Kok Carmen" is the source of the emoji "on you".

There are also Ouyang Quan, a thousand households in Dongchang in Xu Laowei's "Smiling Proud Jianghu", the crooked boy in "The True Story of A Fei", the tooth rub Su in "Huang Feihong", Hong Qigong in "East Becomes West" and so on......

He has been nominated 6 times for Best Supporting Actor at the Academy Awards alone and won 2 awards.

It wasn't until 2001 that he returned to play the leading role in "Man Forty" five years after his retirement, and he began to embark on the road of not playing supporting roles and specializing in the leading role.

However, he hasn't made a new movie for 2 years after "Man Forty", and if you go to him with the script of "If Love", you may be able to move him to star.

Seeing that Wu Yuan suggested that Zhang Xueyou play Nie Wen, Zhang Guorong also let go of his heart, feeling that he had misunderstood Wu Yuan before and accepted his explanation.

"He's a good fit." Zhang Guorong nodded approvingly.

"How? Consider signing with my company, and this movie will be made for you. Wu Yuan said with a smile: "And there will be a better script for you to shoot in the future." ”

"You may not believe it, but in my opinion, the script of "If Love" is just average, and I will definitely write you a better script in the future."

"I believe it." Zhang Guorong looked at Wu Yuan with a serious face.

When others said this, he would only think it was bragging, but Wu Yuan said that Zhang Guorong really believed it.

Because Wu Yuan has been known for his ability to write scripts since his debut, several movie scripts have been written very well.

A script like "The Undertaker", given Zhang Guorong another ten years, he may not be able to write it.

"Let me seriously consider this matter." Zhang Guorong took back the script of "If Love", "You don't mind if I bring this script back, right?" ”

Joining the Age of Light and Shadow, he must go back to discuss and study with Tang Sheng.

However, he is personally inclined to join, not how good the light and shadow era is, this company is just a new company.

The main thing is Wu Yuan, the boss of the cow, who has China Film to escort him in the mainland, and he is a guest of honor in Hollywood, and he can direct a super A-level blockbuster in Hollywood with an investment of more than 100 million US dollars!

His connections directly opened up both sides of the ocean, and he was able to win awards in Europe, so it can be said that the world film market has opened its doors to him.

If you follow him, you may be able to get into the dock, which is a benefit that no director or even a film company in China can give.

Zhang Guorong is not short of money, but he really lacks such an upward channel.

The two chatted around the script for a while, and Wu Yuan knew that this matter could not be decided in a while, so he accepted it when he saw it.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the time was almost up, and the two left Houhai together.

When passing the Silver Ingot Bridge again, Wu Yuan stopped at the top of the bridge, propped his hands on the edge of the bridge, looked at the lake wrinkled by the breeze, and said lightly: "Zhang Sheng, make a decision as soon as possible." ”

"Now in China, since its accession to the WTO, everything has been on the fast track."

"Just like Houhai, there are only a few bars now, but in a year there will be twenty or thirty bars opening here."

"It's the same with the film industry, it's all evolving rapidly and changing with each passing day."

"Time waits for no one."

......

After chatting with Zhang Guorong for an afternoon, Wu Yuan returned to the work of drama rehearsals.

The acting skills of several main actors have improved significantly under Wu Yuan's hands-on teaching and rehearsals over and over again.

The preparatory work of the pre-crew of "Your Name" has also officially begun.

The crew is based on the more than 20 company employees who were sent by Wu Yuan to the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" for further study and returned, and then seconded twenty or thirty staff members from Beijing Film Studio, which can be regarded as complete.

On the Industrial Light & Magic side, according to Wu Yuan's requirements, he was already doing the preliminary special effects design.

Mayday is also working day and night to create dubbing for "Ling's Name", and will send a sample to Wu Yuan as soon as he has a harvest.

Everything is going on in a steady and orderly manner.

When the time came to the end of May, not only had the rehearsal of "Romeo and Juliet" been in the most perfect state that several actors could show, but there were also two good news in a row from the other side of the ocean.

The first piece of good news is that The Hangover has broken $200 million at the North American box office, although the film's momentum is almost at the end of its time, and Light Times has no way to operate overseas releases.

But the North American box office alone is 200 million, which is enough for Wu Yuan to make money, and John is also laughing, and the 3% box office account sharing allows him to directly achieve financial freedom.

Later, there were also the sale of overseas distribution rights, the sale of DVD rights, etc., which could also bring a lot of income to the light age.

Although the money will not arrive in full until next year at the earliest, John, who got the good news, can't wait to buy a good property for his family.

He even highly recommended Wu Yuan to buy a property in the famous Beverly Hills in Los Angeles.

It was originally the centre of Hollywood's most prestigious awards event, and superstars from all over the world have bought properties here.

Michael Jackson, Madonna, Britney, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and others all have mansions here, and Brother Cheng Long in China also has a house in Beverley.

John believes that his boss, as one of Hollywood's well-known directors, is now an independent film production company, and should also be worthy of his identity with a house in Beverly Hills!

John was more active than Wu Yuan, and even took the initiative to step on him and chose a mansion on the slopes of Beverly Hills.

This house has a construction area of 18,000 square feet (more than 1,670 square meters), covers an area of 1 acre, and probably covers an area of more than 4,000 square meters.

It's just that the price is a bit expensive, nearly 30 million dollars...

Who says Americans don't care about real estate and don't speculate?

Hearing this, Wu Yuan scolded John on the phone, a house covering an area of more than 4,000 square meters, this is not called a mansion but a manor!

What did he buy it for? He can't stay in the U.S. for a few months a year!

However, Wu Yuan was really moved, and asked John to help look at other properties for sale in Beverly Hills, which didn't need to be too big, just have an area of five or six hundred square meters.

Well, he's a little floating, the movies I produced and produced have a box office of 200 million US dollars, and I can't enjoy it yet?

Every time I come to the United States, I live in a hotel, and he is tired of living, so it's good to have a house of his own!

On top of that, the second piece of good news is that the post-production of Pirates of the Caribbean is in the final stages.

The special effects production of this movie started before the movie was started, and the special effects team followed the team throughout the whole process after the start-up, and did post-synthesis and rendering after completion, and now it has been 90% completed.

It is expected to be completed in June.

Disney is in a hurry to release this fantasy adventure blockbuster in the summer to attract a large number of young high school students and college students to the cinema.

So the movie should be released in mid-July, and it has now been promoted in North America in various warm-ups.

And before the release, Disney plans to hold a grand premiere of the film in their Disneyland, and the premiere date has been set, July 6th!

Wu Yuan, who received the notice, must rush to the United States to attend this premiere before July 6th!
