Chapter 265: Destroying Your Image
Hepburn's promise went smoothly because she had no problems, and she just needed the agency behind her to agree. And Orwitz had already started to take over her contract. This time, Wu Cheng called Orwitz and needed to win 100%!
This made Orwitz feel that there must be some ulterior motive between his boss Wu Cheng and Hepburn, otherwise why did he suddenly become so tough?
Hepburn is willing to accept this challenge and learn Cantonese opera, so Luka naturally has to follow her to educate her. After all, in the play, he also needs to play the role of the son of Wu Fenfang.
As for the role of Ren Jiansheng, Wu Cheng called Leslie Cheung. When Leslie Cheung heard that it was Wu Cheng's movie, and there were two more, he still agreed without saying a word.
Although he is working on his second album.
His first album sold well and was well-known in Southeast Asia. Although he was still not as good as Su Rui's album. However, under the operation of Fenglong Records, he gradually became closer to the position of a first-line singer. Therefore, the company naturally decided to make his second album for him.
Leslie Cheung's second album has not been completely finalized yet. The two old guys are thinking about how to ask Wu Cheng to write a few songs for Leslie Cheung! Of course, Leslie Cheung is also trying to write songs himself.
Therefore, his life has been quite leisurely recently, and he has pushed aside many of his film work. Of course, part of the reason is that those characters are not good.
Ren Jiansheng's role was finalized, and Wu Cheng called Chen Yulian directly and asked her to go to the company tomorrow to give her a role for an interview. Of course, there was also Zhong Chuhong.
In addition to these characters, there is also the supporting actress who is crazy third party played by Zhong Chuhong in the original time and space. Wu Cheng directly asked Madonna if she had any interest in it.
Madonna grinned and said, "Hey, didn't you say I'm not suitable for acting?"
"Because this character only requires you to play in your true nature. Is there any problem?"
"I want to know, in the play, do I need to act in a passionate scene?"
"There are a few kissing scenes. If you don't want to kiss them seriously, you can borrow a position or use a substitute, it depends on your own ideas." Wu Cheng shrugged.
"So, I have no problem!"
"That's what it's decided!"
Several characters here are easy to handle, but what Wu Cheng didn't expect was that there was a problem with Ren Dasha. Huang Baiming called him and said that Ren Dasha was not willing to play this role because he now felt like he was bound by such roles.
Wu Cheng frowned and called Ren Dahua. When Ren Dahua received Wu Cheng's call, he couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, I know what you think, but the problem is that I have played such a role now, and I have played four times in a row. Almost all other people who come to me to act are like this. I almost feel like I am a sissy!"
Wu Cheng laughed and finally said seriously: "Ah, do you know that this drama may enter North America? Are you sure you are willing to give up such an opportunity?"
"Boss, I know, A Ming told me!" Ren Dahua sighed lightly and said, "I know the boss values me, and I also want to enter the international market. But I hope it is for other roles, not sissy roles. In fact, I have already visited a psychologist once before!"
"No problem!" When he heard this guy actually went to see a psychologist, Wu Cheng suddenly felt that he cared less about him. Although this guy rose a little late, he still had potential. He can be said to be a typical example of late-achieving, just like Black Carbon Liu.
"There is no big problem. I'm just acting in many of this type of drama. I often treat reality as filming and habitually make some more feminine actions. Just take a break!"
Wu Chengchen calmed down and said, "So, I have a script here. Go back and go to the company to get it, and then think about the role of the protagonist in the play. At the same time, I will arrange for the company production department to plan this video, try to set up a group and shoot it quickly, and change your thinking!"
"Boss, this..."
Ren Dahua didn't know what to say, although Wu Cheng did this, he seemed to be a little bit of a big deal. However, Ren Dahua felt a feeling of emotion lingering in his heart.
Of course, he didn't think that Wu Cheng was cursing his elder brother, because although his elder brother was a policeman, he was just a small policeman now and had no capital to be cursed by a rich man with a net worth of 200 to 30 billion yuan.
"Okay, you are one of the earliest veterans in the company. If you make a movie, you can solve your psychological problems. What's easier than this? What's more, you became like this because of the reason I asked you to play that role. I naturally have the responsibility to help you!"
"Boss, I..."
"How is it? Be touched!" Wu Cheng couldn't help but chuckled.
Ren Dahua couldn't help but grin and smiled silently when he heard this. This man was like this. Others were very moved and grateful to him, but he destroyed the atmosphere in just one sentence.
"Well, I'm very touched!" Ren Dahua still smiled and said, "It's a pity that I'm not a woman!"
"Ha, forget it! If a woman looks like you, she has to worry about whether she can get married!" Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Okay, go to the company tomorrow to get the script!"
The script Wu Cheng mentioned is actually Ren Dahua's famous work, the August 1st edition of "Informer".
Wu Cheng had already written this script, but because this kind of movie was not popular yet during this period, he did not take it out so quickly.
But now it seems that it is better to take it out and change the environment for him first, so as not to become a late actor, the late actor will become a sissy in the future. If that is the case, then he will be a sinner.
Wu Cheng felt that being a person must have a beginning and an end. Since the problem was caused by oneself, it would be solved by oneself. Moreover, if this drama appears in advance, it might lead to the popularity of such movies? Xiangjiang also needs all kinds of movies to gradually enrich it.
What's more, Donglong International is not very short of money now. The one who really owes a lot of money to the bank is the newly established road construction company.
However, if Ren Dahua doesn’t play Ren Erlang, Zhou Runfa can’t play, so who will be invited to play? For example, there are really no one in Cheng’s agency today who is suitable for this role.
Needless to say, Hong Jinbao's fellow brothers are not good enough to become a playboy. Chen Xunqi, a bearded man, has some potential as a playboy, but if the goods are asked to remove those two beards, it would be like killing him, and he would have to pass it.
Wu Cheng suddenly felt that he was too young to use it. Although Donglong International has many talents, there are not many talents like this. There are people on the wireless side, but they don’t let them go!
This period is unlike in the 1980s and 1990s, where those movie stars have not appeared yet!
Otherwise, Wu Cheng felt that there would be no problem to bring Liang Jiahui, the actor.
...
The next day, Wu Cheng came to the company, and Huang Baiming and Ren Dahua came together.
Seeing them, Wu Cheng directly handed over the script of "Informer" with him to Simon Yam and said, "Take it back and think about it slowly, don't lose it."
"Boss, don't worry, I will protect it well." Ren Dahua smiled and reached out to shoot the script, and held it in his arms. "If the boss doesn't have any other instructions, I won't fight you!"
Wu Cheng waved his hand and asked him to leave, then looked at Huang Baiming and said, "Ren Erlang's role is now vacant. Can anyone see who is suitable? But there is no need to hurry. "Happy Ghost" has not been released yet! When it is released, it will not be too late to start filming!"
Originally, he decided to start filming in August, but now it seems that it is necessary to prepare early. After all, he is the director of two crews and the task is not light.
Moreover, Luca's little friend has to go back to North America to study in September. Wu Cheng can't delay other people's children's studies!
Huang Baiming nodded, finally glanced at Wu Cheng, bared his teeth and said, "Well, boss, I actually have someone to choose in my heart, but I guess he won't want to have a role like a sissy! After all, such a role is actually too destructive."
Wu Cheng couldn't help but lit up his eyes and said, "Who? I'll convince him! Although such a role destroys his image, it will be very effective in practicing acting! And in the future, he will become an international superstar in the international market! Who would be willing to give up such an opportunity!"
Huang Baiming smiled bitterly and said, "But the problem is that that person is already very famous internationally!"
"Uh! You can't just want to find a foreigner to act!" Wu Cheng couldn't help laughing and said, "That sense of incongruity is too strong. You can't set Ren Erlang's identity as a half-brother! In this way, if we don't think it's incongruity after watching it, the audience will probably have to scold us to death!"
"This person is not a foreigner!" Huang Baiming laughed and looked at Wu Cheng, which made Wu Cheng feel inexplicable. Finally, he came to his senses and pointed at him and cursed: "You guy, you are not me, right! You are brave enough to actually make jokes on the boss!"
Huang Baiming laughed and said, "Boss, I'm not kidding you. I'm very serious. Although your figure is not tall enough, you are handsome enough! And our height is not that tall. To be honest, you are the tallest among the three of us! There is no problem with just one go. What's more, you are not very famous internationally. At that time, as long as you spread the news of your cooperation with Ms. Hepburn, I believe you don't need to worry about the box office!"
