The road to becoming a movie star from the villain

Chapter 306 The new drama starts filming

Not long after returning to Kyoto, Hong Chen received the notice to appear in Batman's second film "The Dark Knight".

The start of filming is scheduled for May because there is still a lot of preparatory work to be done.This TV series is the brainchild of Warner, so it will definitely receive the highest level of treatment.

After all, Batman is the real son, and every theme and every film and television work surrounding Batman must go through strict review.

It is impossible for Warner to destroy this biggest IP.

After that, Hong Chen signed a contract with Warner.

This contract is also very complicated, including confidentiality and strict compliance with crew requirements and so on.

In other words, Hong Chen cannot promote himself as a clown before the film is completed, and he cannot even use this point to promote himself.

Only when the movie is actually released can the publicity be carried out.

Hong Chen didn't care about this.He is also not the kind of little fresh meat who is eager for quick success and quick profit - he is a bit hot and eager to post it on the Internet to gain popularity.

However, there were still about three months before the filming, and Hong Chen remembered that he had just finished filming the scene of Yan Chi first.

"What, you really succeeded? Clown?" After Yan Chi heard the news that Hong Chen was playing the role of the clown, he spit out a sip of tea.

Are you kidding me?
The clown, the most classic villain image in film history, was actually taken down by this gentle and sunny man in front of him?
"Yeah, the contract is signed, Director Nolan is quite polite to me." Hong Chen shrugged and said.

"Pervert, can this work?" Yan Chi said in surprise.

He couldn't help sighing, looking at Hong Chen with disbelief in his eyes.

You know, being able to play a clown doesn't just mean that the actor is very good.

At the same time, it also means that Hong Chen's reputation will inevitably spread to all parts of the world, becoming a truly famous star on a global scale.

Because the spread of the "Batman" series is too high.

Just like a Marvel superhero movie, every character will be familiar to the audience.

Iron Man, Spiderman, Captain America, Thor, Widow, Black Panther and more.

The Joker is also such an iconic character.

"How did you do it? Can you stand out from such a perverted audition process in Hollywood?" Yan Chi asked curiously.

"It was just a scene during the audition."

"That's it?" Yan Chi frowned.

"That's it." Hong Chen spread his hands.

"Okay, no matter what, I'm waiting to see your movie." Yan Chi had no choice but to say.

Then, the two began to discuss the filming of "Fatal ID".

Because time is tight, they also have to go abroad earlier.

Yan Chi is still more focused on making films for foreign markets. It can be said that he is the pioneer of Hongchen Media Company to enter the overseas market.

It is worth mentioning that Yan Chi has a nominal director position in the company, but it is a false position. Yan Chi is not interested in management, and still concentrates on his career as a director.

In the next few days, Hong Chen, as the boss of the company, attended several business events.

He didn't like it, but there was no way, some things had to be done.

Just like Yang Mi is so popular, from time to time, he also takes his artist Reba to run commercial activities to increase his popularity.The same is true for the bosses of many other studios, who have to help their artists accumulate popularity.

Afterwards, Hong Chen and Yan Chi headed to a border town in the eastern part of the United States.

The shooting location of "Fatal ID" is in a small town. This kind of scene is most suitable for shooting horror and suspense style movies.

In the current world, there are very few movies that make people feel psychologically thrilling. It can be said that there are almost none. That's why the movie "Comet" can bring so much profit at such a low cost.

And "Fatal ID" is only stronger than "Comet".

Because this movie contains a lot of violent elements, and the plot is more biased towards killing games, which Lao Mei likes very much.

Yan Chi is also well-known in the American director circle.

The investment in this film is much larger, because now one of the company's focus is overseas markets, so this film will receive the greatest degree of support.

The leading actress is the new star actress Amanda Peet, who was named one of the 50 most beautiful women in the world by the American "People Magazine" three years ago. Her character and innocence in the performance have been praised by most film critics praise and audience love.

Amanda is indeed very beautiful, she looks youthful and beautiful, and her clothes are sexy, but she doesn't make people feel wavy.

It belongs to the kind of more "advanced" sexy.

It can be compared to Lee Hyo-ri, the earliest girl group idol in the Han country, the queen of the Han country dance, the sexy goddess, her sexiness is a relatively high-level sexiness, which makes people feel very appreciative.

Looking at the current girl groups, the dance moves are full of "X hints", and they use vulgar movements to attract people's attention, which is much worse in comparison.

In the small town, except for an assistant director and a producer, most of the members of Yan Chizhao's crew are American, so that the filming will not be too discordant.

This film is independently produced by Hongchen Media Company, and it is also the company's second attempt to enter the US market.

"Hi, director." Amanda looked very humble after she came to the crew.

After all, after signing the contract, the producer has the absolute right to speak.

This is different from China's market.

In the United States, actors can play big names, but they must follow the contract.

That is to say, if the actors have any requirements, they should all be negotiated before signing the contract, and both parties agree.After the contract is signed, you can't ask for it again.

For example, Samuel Jackson, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. who plays Nick Fried in the "Avengers" series, is a very famous star in Hollywood. When filming the Avengers series, the director asked him to play Nick Fried. Ray, he has a simple request.

That is, Samuel loves to play golf, and he asked that the crew not interfere with him for any reason when he wanted to play golf.

That is to say, if he wants to fight, he will fight, even if he is shooting an important scene, he will go.

In the end, this contract was also written into the contract.

That is to say, on Laomei's side, playing big names has been legalized, put on the negotiating table, and explain clearly what is going on, first the villain and then the gentleman.

After signing the contract, if you put forward conditions, then everything will be done according to the contract, and there will not be so many disputes between the two parties.

In fact, this kind of contract is already relatively mature.

Huaxia is not the case, because Huaxia's style is more reserved.

It's just putting too much demands into the contract openly and aboveboard, and the artist feels embarrassed.

However, after the contract is signed, many artists like to improvise and play big names in order to show their presence. This is called tossing.

"You memorized the lines so well?" Seeing Amanda, Yan Chi asked.

Amanda nodded, and said with admiration: "Director Yan, don't worry, I can recite all the lines. I am a suspense and thriller fan. I really like your film "The Night the Comet Came". I hope you can guide me a lot."

Sensing her enthusiasm, Yan Chi was also slightly surprised.But this is better, the more passionate you are, the better you can perform.

At the same time, Yan Chi felt a little dark in his heart, after all, he still has a fan girl.

But at this time, Yan Chi found that Amanda's eyes were not right. He looked carefully and found that Amanda was staring at Hong Chen with burning eyes.

Then, Amanda immediately ran to Hong Chen's side, chatting and laughing with Hong Chen.

Inadvertently, Amanda also made some suggestive movements such as brushing her hair and shaking her calf on tiptoe. It is obvious that Hong Chen is Amanda's real idol.

Seeing this, Yan Chi felt a little helpless for a moment.

Really, people are more popular than people.
