Jia Xiu, Zeng Yu and others didn’t quite understand why Li Han thought Wang Shao was suitable for the role of Heshen?

Besides, in addition to the image problem, there is another problem.

Jia Xiu said again: "Mr. Li Han, Wang Shao's acting skills are definitely powerful and old actors. However, in recent years, Wang Shao has almost retired. The last time he acted almost five years ago. And he only made a guest appearance in a friendly manner. Now he wants him to play a protagonist, or a notorious figure in history, he probably won't accept it."

Li Han nodded and said, "So I just said, I wonder if they will take on the role?"

Jia Xiu said: "Zhang Wenliang and Zhang Hailin should not have a big problem. But Wang Shao probably won't answer."

Li Han said: "Where is Wang Shao now? Can you contact him?"

Jia Xiu said: "Wang Shao has hardly ever appeared in the media in recent years. I heard that he has returned to his hometown. If you want to contact me, there should be a way to contact me."

Li Han nodded and said, "Then please ask Director Jia to find a way to contact Wang Shao, and then send him an invitation to see how he will respond?"

Jia Xiu said: "Okay, leave it to me. There is no big problem."

Li Han said: "Thank you, Director Jia."

Jia Xiu smiled and said, "Mr. Li Han is so polite."

Then, Jia Xiu did not delay and directly began to find a way to contact Wang Shao.

Although Jia Xiu is not a big director like Jing Wenbo, he has a certain popularity and of course his connections in the entertainment industry will not be bad.

After a few phone calls, he had already obtained Wang Shao's mobile phone number and confirmed that Wang Shao was indeed living in his hometown.

"Will you invite Wang Shao now?" Jia Xiu asked.

Li Han nodded and said, "Just now."

Jia Xiu nodded and called Wang Shao.

After a few rings, the phone is connected.

"Hello! Who?"

Jia Xiu said: "Teacher Wang Shao? I am Jia Xiu. I'm very sorry, I'm disturbing you."

"It turns out it's Director Jia. Director Jia is serious. I don't know if Director Jia called me..."

"That's right, Teacher Wang Shao..." Jia Xiu said the matter.

On the phone, Wang Shao was very surprised and said, "I have heard of Mr. Li Han's filming of "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan". However, I really didn't expect that you would invite me to play the role of Heshen. My character image is very different from the real Heshen's character image in history, right?"

Jia Xiu didn't know how to accept this, and he didn't expect Li Han would invite Wang Shao!

After looking at Li Han, Li Han just smiled, Jia Xiu had to say: "We are a fictional story. Does the character image match the character image of real people in history? This is not important. We just think that Teacher Wang Shao is very suitable for playing the role of Heshen."

Wang Shao said: "I am very honored. Thank you Director Jia and Mr. Li Han. However, Director Jia should know that I no longer plan to film again. Besides, it is a role like Heshen. To be honest, Director Jia is not very acceptable to play a role like Heshen. I am really sorry!"

"That's really a pity. Sorry, I'm disturbing Teacher Wang Shao." Jia Xiu said.

After the call, Jia Xiu said: "Mr. Li Han, the same as we analyzed before. Two reasons made Wang Shao unwilling to accept our invitation."

Li Han nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's see that there are no other suitable actors yet. In addition, continue to send invitations to Zhang Wenliang and Zhang Hailin."

Jia Xiu said: "They shouldn't have a big problem."

...

"Oh? Invite me to play the role of Ji Xiaolan?" Zhang Wenliang was also a little surprised after receiving Jia Xiu's call.

Li Han's intention to film "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan" has caused a lot of controversy in the outside world and the entertainment industry.

Of course, Zhang Wenliang knew it too.

Not only that, he also talked about this with some actors in the circle.

Everyone thinks that Li Han cannot not know that this kind of subject matter is very unpopular, but he still wants to shoot it.

This is either because Li Han is a little overly inflated and arrogant, or because Li Han has absolute confidence.

Zhang Wenliang believes that the reason should be the latter.

Of course, Li Han is confident enough, but it doesn’t mean that the final drama will definitely become popular.

But it shouldn't be too disappointing.

Therefore, Zhang Wenliang's evaluation of the market prospects of "Iron-Toothed and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan" is that the possibility of a big fire is relatively small, and the possibility of a failure is also relatively small, and the probability of being able to pass is barely enough.

Zhang Wenliang looked at the entire incident and evaluated it completely with an onlooker mentality.

He really didn't expect Jia Xiu to call him and invite him to play the role of Ji Xiaolan.

He was very surprised and didn't have any preparation at all. He didn't know whether he should refuse or accept it for a moment?

I can only say that I need to think carefully.

Ji Xiaolan?

Zhang Wenliang only admires Ji Xiaolan as a good official, and there is no special relationship.

Now that he is going to play such a role, Zhang Wenliang suddenly becomes a little excited.

The reason is that Ji Xiaolan is a good official who has been famous in history.

No matter what, I always feel a little excited to learn that a crew invites me to play such a famous figure.

But this is not enough to be a reason why Zhang Wenliang accepted the invitation.

Other aspects need to be considered comprehensively.

If the script was not written by Li Han, Zhang Wenliang would have refused directly.

Now the script is written by Li Han, and Zhang Wenliang wants to refuse, but he is a little reluctant.

What if the drama became popular?

Although he is already a famous star actor and is also called an old actor, he also wants to shoot more popular dramas.

After careful consideration, Zhang Wenliang decided to go to the script first to read the script.

Although he believed that the scripts written by Li Han himself would not be bad, he still had to see them with his own eyes to rest assured.

If the script is good enough, he will accept the invitation and audition.

...

After receiving Jia Xiu's invitation, Zhang Hailin's reaction was similar to Zhang Wenliang.

They also never expected that the crew of "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan" would invite him to play the role of Emperor Qianlong.

He had played the role of emperors before, but he was both the Emperor of the Tang and Ming dynasties, and he had never played the role of emperors of the Qing dynasties.

Regarding the market prospects of the drama "Iron-Toothed and Bronze Teethed Ji Xiaolan", Zhang Hailin also believes that the possibility of a big fire is not high, but it should not be a failure.

After all, this is a script created by Li Han himself. No matter how unpopular the subject matter is, it will definitely attract many people to watch it.

The final ratings should be acceptable.

So, do you want to accept the invitation?

After thinking carefully, Zhang Hailin made the same decision as Zhang Wenliang, and went to Legend Film and Television to check the script first.
