Chapter 501 Casting
Besides the Walled City of Kowloon, Qi Lin also had a great time watching several big scenes in the movie. While watching the sub-cameras, the movie images had already appeared in his mind.
After waiting to read it all, Qi Lin read the script again.
The script has been refined twice, and it seems to be much smoother. Qi Lin closed the script with satisfaction.
"That's right. Regarding the venue, you should keep an eye on it while watching chess. You don't have to worry about the money. After arriving at the place, tell them what you think, how to expand or renovate, and then ask Sister Hua to negotiate the price with them. After the negotiation is completed, follow the Come up with your idea!"
"In a word, don't care about money!"
Qi Lin spoke with great confidence. Although he is usually a miser, isn’t the only reason to make money is to have a better time when you use it?
Han Guanqi was still a little tired before, but after hearing Qi Lin's words, he felt as if he had a chicken blood in an instant!
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Han Guanqi's voice was very loud, and Qi Lin laughed after hearing this: "Go and rest first, I'm a little worried that you will die suddenly with your appearance!"
Han Guanqi stroked his beard and laughed together.
Wang Datou on the side was a little envious when he saw this, Qi Lin thought for a while and said.
"Do you want to follow the group? I'll give you half a million!"
Wang Datou agreed without even thinking about it. The point of his head made Qi Lin worry for a while whether his neck could bear it!
"Okay, okay, stop nodding."
Qi Lin pointed to Han Guanqi who was at the side and said, "You will hang out with him from now on and be responsible for advising him, but he can only make decisions, understand?"
Han Guanqi was even more moved when he heard the words, and had the urge to die for his confidant!
Wang Datou has no objection, half a million! Even if it lasts for a year, the average monthly cost is over 40,000. Such a good job, of course you can't miss it!
What's more, it was a script written by myself, as if it was a child raised by myself.
Film shooting is like watching a child grow up little by little. Of course, he has to follow this process before he can rest assured.
Both of them are quick-tempered, or they put all their energy into this movie. Early the next morning, He Jiaxin told Qi Lin that the two had already gone to Xiqiao Mountain National Arts Film and Television City.
Qi Lin was a little worried after hearing this, not because he was worried about spending money, but because he was worried about whether these two people would die suddenly! After all, they have turned into that ghostly appearance, which is indeed a bit scary!
As for the actors, Qi Lin and Wang Xiaohua are in charge.
Han Guanqi has no opinion on this at all. In fact, he is very satisfied that the director can use him this time.
Just relying on the fame of Qi Lin and Liu Tianwang, I don't know how many big directors coveted it, but now this opportunity has fallen on him.
At this moment, Qi Lin and Wang Xiaohua are discussing the issue of casting.
Among the supporting roles, there are three people who are more important, Lard Boy, Fat Boy Chao, and Hunter!
Among them, lard is the most important!
This role, in a sense, is Lei Luo's talker, very important! Some things that Lei Luo is inconvenient to say and do are all for him to do.
And this person is extremely loyal to Lei Luo! And you have to be able to hold the field!
Qi Lin quickly thought about the stars who are suitable for lard boy, and finally thought of three people.
"Sister, I think of three people, you can see if they are suitable."
"Well, you say."
"First of all, Fatty Xiangjiang Wang. Although he is the director, he should have no problem playing the lard boy with his figure."
Qi Lin's impression of Fatty Wang is still very good. Although he is dubbed the king of bad movies by many people, during the downturn period of Xiangjiang movies, this king of bad movies really supported many people with his bad movies .
So what? At least it will allow the actors and the behind-the-scenes staff to have a good year.
Wang Xiaohua thought for a while, then nodded, then shook her head.
"Fatty Wang must be dying. As far as I know, he will have four movies next year. Even if he is a quick shooter, these four movies are enough to keep him busy for a while."
Qi Lin didn't insist after hearing this, and continued: "The second actor is Feixue, and his figure is quite suitable, and I have worked with him in "Single Men and Women" and "Slimming Men and Women", and there is still a tacit understanding."
Wang Xiaohua nodded after hearing this, and wrote the word Feixue on the notepad beside her.
"The last person is Zheng Shi! I think his body type is the most suitable for the role of lard boy, and like Fei Xue, I have worked with him in "The Bodyguard of Zhongnanhai" before, and there are many scenes with him, and the relationship is also good."
Wang Xiaohua nodded, and then wrote the word Zheng Shi.
After some hesitation, the two decided to call Zheng Shi first to inquire about the schedule.
Qi Lin has Zheng Shi's private number, but it's easy.
Beep beep.
"Hello? Qi Lin, why did you remember to call me? What can I do for you?"
"Haha, Brother Zheng, look at what you said, what do you care about? I plan to shoot a movie next year, and there is a lack of a role in it, a very important role. Are you interested?"
"Hey, how could you not be interested? I haven't started work for a long time, do you have a script?"
"Of course, I will send it to you soon."
"Haha, of course, come to Xiangjiang when you have time, I will treat you to fish."
"Row!"
Qi Lin decided on an important supporting role with a few words.
Zheng Shi is definitely an underestimated actor. Many people know that he is one of the golden supporting actors, but few people know that this golden supporting actor has won Best Actor twice!
But such a good actor, there are not many scenes that can be filmed now, it is really sad to think about it.
"Sister, give me a little more salary."
"I see."
Wang Xiaohua agreed very happily, but in fact, whether it is hiring staff or actors, [Kirin Studio] often gives a higher price.
This is not to say that Qilin Studio has reached the point where money is not valued, they only do it for fame! It is necessary to create a good reputation in the circle, so that it will be easier to hire people in the future, even if the crew and their bids are similar, those staff or actors will give priority to them!
"The role of Henry is easy to handle. In the past two years, many foreigners have come to China to be actors, but it is not so easy to find Fat Boy Chao."
Wang Datou obviously hates the character of Fat Boy Chao, and what he wrote is called a cheap one!
And for this kind of role, you must find the kind of actor who wants to give him a punch when you see him, such as Charlie, who was known as the number one **** in Xiangjiang back then!
But now it’s hard to find such a good actor. In the end, the two didn’t decide on a candidate.
For example, when filming "I'm Not the God of Medicine", the original heroine was not Ms. Tan, but Ms. Yang, but unfortunately she was rejected by Ms. Yang because of the pole dancing.
Or you can jump, but you have to pay more.
In the end, although they didn't talk about it, the other party also introduced another actress to the director, but I didn't expect her to come up with a sentence, not to act in a movie with less than one billion yuan!
Thus, the opportunity fell to Ms. Tan.
As a result, after the movie was released, the comments from netizens were negative.
Fortunately, those two people were not allowed to act! Otherwise, the character will be ruined!
