Chapter 136 Even this team wants to compete with me?

Both Guo Fan and Liu Dehua looked at Lin Shaotian who was thinking with downcast eyes in extreme surprise.

Liu Dehua now regards himself as a member of the crew, of course he supports the director's idea and hopes that Lin Shaotian can give Guo Fan a chance.

And Guo Fan was worried, after hearing his thoughts, would Lin Shaotian think that he was too aggressive, and thus had the idea of ​​divestment?
Guo Fan regretted it all at once, why did he tell Lin Shaotian about his plan.

If he didn't say anything, the other party wouldn't know that he was going to make two movies, he just needed to do it secretly, there was no need to tell Lin Shaotian all the big and small things.

On the contrary, it will make the other party worry about their ability to do the job.

Just when the two were feeling uneasy, Lin Shaotian said, "Director Guo, I seem to have said that you just need to let go and leave the money to me? As for the money you took, you wanted to make a movie. Or two, I don't care, I only care about the final rate of return, do you understand?"

Guo Fan understood immediately.

It was because he understood that he was so excited, he raised his hand to hold Lin Shaotian's hand on the table, and thanked Lin Shaotian.

But Lin Shaotian refused to give him this chance, immediately pulled his hand away, and said helplessly, "Director Guo, there's no need to be so excited, right?"

"Mr. Lin, I am so grateful to you. I will never forget your support for the crew. Don't worry, I will make this movie well! I won't let you down!"

Guo Fan didn't know how to thank Lin Shaotian for his support.

An investor who doesn't dictate the script is really rare!
Moreover, no matter how Guo Fan arranges the three actors that Lin Shaotian stuffed in, Lin Shaotian will never say anything else. Where can I find such investors?
"I have received your thank you, please talk to Mr. Liu about the filming."

Lin Shaotian signaled to Guo Fan that he could start the conversation with Liu Dehua.

"well!"

Guo Fan set his eyes on Liu Dehua, who suddenly tensed his back, like a newcomer facing the director, his whole body was full of strong desire to express.

Of course, Guo Fan didn't think that Liu Dehua was a fledgling newcomer, or an old actor eager for opportunities. He clearly knew that the reason why Liu Dehua was like this was entirely because of his dedication.

The shooting experience of sci-fi movies...there are not many in the whole of China, and the things produced by the only few crews...it is really hard to describe, no wonder Liu Dehua treats it so cautiously.

"Ms. Liu, my plan is this..."

Guo Fan briefly stated his thoughts. Among them, he also mentioned that the crew is looking for an actor who is suitable to play the hero's grandfather, and Guo Fan's best candidate is Wu Mengda.

But he sent several e-mails to the other party, but did not get a reply.

Thinking that the other party might not have read the email, I wanted Liu Dehua to lead the way in the middle, to see if there was a chance to invite Mr. Wu Mengda.

After listening to Guo Fan's thoughts, Liu Dehua suddenly showed sadness on his face, and he hesitated to speak.

After Lin Shaotian saw this, he took the initiative to bring up the matter, "Director Guo, you may not know that Mr. Wu is currently undergoing surgery in the hospital. He... has liver cancer."

"what?"

Guo Fan was dumbfounded all of a sudden.

He had never heard the news!
"Yes, although it was discovered early and there is a certain possibility of recovery through surgery, but now Mr. Wu's body... I am afraid it is not suitable for filming."

Liu Dehua said with a sad expression.

Guo Fan didn't know what to say. No wonder after he submitted the list, all the actors on it met with him one after another, but Wu Mengda didn't show up for a long time.

Guo Fan thought that even Lin Shaotian couldn't please him.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu actually had an operation in the hospital!
"It's such a pity, I hope Mr. Wu can recover as soon as possible..." Guo Fan also said sadly, with a gloomy expression.

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly fell into silence because of Mr. Wu's illness.

After a long time, Lin Shaotian took the initiative to speak and said, "Director Guo, go back and find someone else, and I'll help you get in touch."

"Thank you Mr. Lin..."

Guo Fan was still immersed in sadness.

Seeing him like this, Liu Dehua shut up knowingly and didn't speak again.

……

The news that Liu Dehua might participate in the filming of "The Wandering Earth" spread quickly.

When Chen Kaige heard about it, he scoffed.

"A person in his 60s doesn't know how to take a break, stepping into a field he has never touched, and he is not afraid of losing his life at the end of the year!"

As for the movie that Guo Fan was going to make, Chen Kaige also chose to make a movie and chose to release it at the same time as him.

Chen Kaige would like to see how a film made by a director who only has the theme of youth and love compares with him!
At that time, against the background of his own movie, how much box office will "The Wandering Earth" get?
Hearing that Guo Fan was going to start filming in three months, Chen Kaige also began to choose actors and finalize the script non-stop, but he wanted to shoot an original theme.

Regarding the choice of screenwriter, director Chen certainly trusted himself, he chose another screenwriter who had worked with him to polish the script with him.

Since Guo Fan wants to make sci-fi movies, he will make commercial movies that promote traditional culture!

One new and one old, one old and one young, who can win?

The news that Chen Kaige was going to challenge Lin Shaotian got a lot of attention from netizens on the Internet.

Almost no one is optimistic about the sci-fi movies invested by Lin Shaotian. They are more willing to believe in Director Chen's ability. A director who has won an international award must be more capable than Guo Fan!

Besides, judging from the cast list circulated from Director Chen's studio, they chose the popular niche as the leading role, and other talented factions as supporting roles.

The entire cast can be regarded as very grand, among other things, the acting skills alone are pretty sure.

Look at Guo Fan's choice again.

The male lead is an unknown young actor, and the female lead has not yet been decided. Although Wu Jing is involved...but all his previous films were about tough guys, and he had never acted in a science fiction film.

In addition, Liu Dehua... Although it seems quite reliable, it is a bit mysterious that these two people alone want to carry the box office.

If there is no film that Director Chen wants to shoot to compete with them, the audience may be willing to go to the cinema and choose to watch "The Wandering Earth", but Director Chen has such a competition.

It's hard to say who the audience will choose.

In the atmosphere of bad news, Guo Fan began to choose the heroine.

His target is still a rookie, a famous female star in the circle, very few people are suitable to play a female high school student aged [-] or [-].

Several well-known child actors, whose acting skills are too formative, are no longer among Guo Fan's choices.

……
