I'm a movie star on earth

Chapter 258 Talking about cooperation with Bona (please subscribe and ask for tickets~)

Li Hyuk's work has temporarily entered a period of calm. After celebrating the birthdays of his two children in May, he plans to take the children to travel abroad.

However, the film market was not calm during this period. "Want to See You" was not yet firmly seated as the box office champion, and was surpassed by "Fast and Furious 7" in an instant.I have to say that this exciting Hollywood blockbuster is indeed very attractive to the audience. By the end of May, when it was released, the film had achieved a box office of 24.23 billion, successfully reaching the top.

In addition, it is worth noting that Marvel's super blockbuster "Avengers 2: Age of Ultron" landed on the theaters on May [-]. Although this movie has achieved a good box office, the relatively high threshold for viewing movies is not as high as Disney's. Create good results in the Chinese market as expected.

However, because of its early release, "Avengers 2: Age of Ultron" has created an unprecedented first-week box office record of 9.64 million since its release on Tuesday, making industry insiders think that this record is almost impossible to break.

However, perhaps because too much enthusiasm for watching movies was consumed in the first week, the box office dropped rapidly after the film, and it is a bit difficult to surpass "Want to See You".

Hollywood blockbusters are still fierce. In the first half of the year, apart from "Want to See You", "Wolf Warrior", and a youth film "Left Ear", the others are almost dominated by Hollywood. "Want to See You" is under the siege of many Hollywood blockbusters. Almost couldn't keep No.2 in the box office list.

But don't worry, because the heavyweight domestic films are almost concentrated in the second half of the year, especially the most important National Day schedule, which has always been the world of domestic films, fans can look forward to it.

As a popular star, Lee Hyuk has no shortage of invitations. He just wanted to try a TV series, and Bona Films sent him an invitation to cooperate with Hong Kong Island director Lin Chaoxian and actor Zhang Hanyu in a film adapted from real events. Action movie "Operation Mekong".

Regarding whether to invite Li He to play, Bona Films still has some disputes. The most important thing is that director Lin Chaoxian prefers Peng Yuyan, but Bona executives, especially Yu Dong, want to invite Li He to play.

In itself, an action movie may not be so popular in the movie market where youth idol themes are popular.Especially when Zhang Hanyu is chosen as the male number one, Yu Dong thinks the box office will be more guaranteed.

May I ask who in China can achieve the ultimate in acting skills, number of fans, and box office appeal, only Li Hyuk.

Yu Dong's idea is good. Originally, every film project is a risky project, so he naturally hopes to be more on the safe side.But Lin Chaoxian doesn't think so. He has collaborated with Peng Yuyan in many plays, and he is very optimistic about this Taiwanese actor.

In the end, Yu Dong made the final decision. Even Lin Chaoxian was unmoved by the threat of resignation, and firmly invited Li He to come to Bona Pictures for an interview.

Not to mention, Li Hyuk is actually very interested, because he has never filmed a similar subject before, and besides, Bona Films paid a lot of money for the film.

In the end, at the invitation of Yudong, Li Hyuk went to Bona Films to find out the situation. By the way, he also had a big project to discuss with Bona Films. It might be a bit difficult to rely on Huahua Film and Television and other investors who have always supported him. .

"Mr. Yu, I've heard of your name for a long time, but I haven't had the chance to meet you. This time I finally met you." Li He shook hands with Yu Dong enthusiastically as soon as they met.

"Where is it, I have admired you for a long time, come on, sit down first."

The host and guest sat down, and waited for the black silk secretary to finish serving the tea before the two started chatting, talking all over the place without getting to the point.

While chatting, Yu Dong was secretly amazed that it was not easy for Li He to be able to get along, and his ability to do Tai Chi with one hand even made him feel ashamed.The key is that he is young. It is really rare to have such great achievements at such a young age without any arrogance!
The two chatted for a while, and a bald man arrived. Yu Dong introduced to Li He: "Let me introduce you, this is Lin Chaoxian, the director that Bona Pictures has been cooperating with."

"Hi Director Lin, I've heard about your name for a long time. I really like the movies you made, especially "Guild Wars". The action scenes are quite exciting." Li He complimented.

As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiling faces, not to mention Li Hyuk is a first-line superstar in the mainland, even if he is a Hong Kong director, he has to take it seriously.

"Hello, I've heard of you too, your works are very good." Lin Chaoxian showed a professional smile.

"Let's sit down and talk, sit down and talk..."

The three of them sat down separately, and Yu Dong took the lead and said, "I invite you to come here this time, I think you know that we, Bona, have planned a big project about an adaptation of real events, directed by Director Lin, and we would like to invite you to play the role of the second male lead." No. Fang Xinwu."

"I understand clearly, but I heard that Peng Yuyan was more interested in this role at first. When Director Lin wrote the script, he also created it according to his image. Is it a bit..." Li He was a little suspicious.

Yu Dong waved his hand and said, "As long as you agree to act, the script can still be changed, right Director Lin."

Damn mainland guy, Lin Chaoxian cursed secretly in his heart, but he could only apologize with a smile on his face: "Of course, the script is only a first draft, and it can still be revised. Mr. Li He, do you want to increase the role of the scene?"

Li He shook his head and said: "That's not necessary. I want to say that the script is actually very good. Peng Yuyan and I are quite similar in some aspects. There are actually not many revisions to be made, and I personally have always hoped to cooperate with Teacher Zhang Hanyu."

"So we have reached an agreement?"

"Of course……"

"OK, then I wish us a happy cooperation."

Lin Chaoxian sighed secretly, Peng Yuyan, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that I really don't have a chance, and there's nothing I can do to help!

Before coming here, Peng Yuyan called Lin Chaoxian and asked him to give him a chance to audition, but facing the combination of a first-line star and an industry giant, he, a weak Hong Kong director, had no chance to speak.

In fact, at the beginning of many film projects, internal roles are almost all determined through such conversations, and there are very few roles that can be released for audition.

Li He won this role, and it seems that he stole another project from Peng Yuyan. He doesn't hate me to the bone, does he?

It seems that apart from Ruan Jintian, the Tianting Banquet trio promoted by Taiwan Island, the other two have been robbed of a lot of projects by themselves.No way, people are so good.

After reaching an agreement, Lin Chaoxian didn't want to stay longer, so he left with the excuse of going back to change the script, leaving Li He to continue chatting with Yu Dong.

"Mr. Yu, I've actually been planning a historical drama project recently, and I've encountered a lot of problems." Li He said, observing Yu Dong's reaction.

The corners of Yu Dong's eyes moved, his eyes were full of light, but his tone was calm: "If you have any problems, you might as well tell them, I can definitely help."

An old fox is an old fox. In fact, Yu Dong has always wanted to participate in Li He's project. Watching the gorgeous film and television next door made a lot of money, which made Yu Dong greedy.

But for cooperation, you can’t get on the pole in a hurry, otherwise others will definitely not take you seriously.

Li He naturally understood Yu Dong's thoughts, and laughed secretly in his heart, but changed the subject: "Don't you know Mr. Yu reads online novels?"

"I haven't read it, but the adaptation of online novels into film and television projects is very popular now. To be honest, Bona Pictures has also obtained a lot of copyrights." Yu Dong said.

"Coincidentally, so do I. It's just that there are some difficulties in promoting this project, and several producers must jointly invest." Li He said.

"That must be a big project. I wonder what Bona Pictures can do for you?" Yu Dong asked.

Li He didn't hesitate, and said directly: "I know Mr. Yu has a lot of connections in the circle, and I want you to help me set things up and invite some people."

"That's okay, but I don't know who you want to invite?"

"Who are they, I will make a list for you in a few days, I hope Mr. Yu can help me with this." Li He said.

Yu Dong said: "No problem, but you have to know that although I have been in the industry for so many years, but..."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you don't get invited, I also told Mr. Wang of Enlight Pictures, he has already agreed to help." Old boy, don't push too hard, it's almost enough.

I have spent so much effort to hire someone for you, but you won't give me a chance to enter?

The eyes of the two met in the air, revealing endless meanings inside.Suddenly the female secretary Heisi came in and said, "Mr. Yu, they're here."

"Look bro, I'm very busy here too, why don't you talk to my secretary and ask her to find a favor for you?" Yu Dong stood up and said.

Li He smiled slightly, and suddenly said solemnly: "15.00%?"

"No, at least 50.00%."

"Brother Yu, don't rush to make a decision. This project has a lot of investment, and you may not be able to eat 50.00%."

"Don't be afraid, Bona Pictures has a big appetite."

The old fox and the little fox looked at each other, and Li He offered to leave and said: "How about the specifics? I won't participate if you discuss with the other companies. In short, I hope to conclude the negotiation as soon as possible so that this project can go smoothly after I come back." Advance, and I will take my leave first."

"Go slowly, we will talk next time..."

Seeing the back of Li He leaving, Yu Dong said to Hei Si's female secretary: "Xiaolin, let me know that the meeting will be held in the conference room, and all executives must attend."

The female secretary Heisi nodded and said, "Okay Mr. Yu..."
