During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 270 Naza is 18 years old and refuses one after another

The box office of "Dulala" exceeded 10 million on the first day. It seems that this movie has great hope of exceeding 10 million.

This achievement is very eye-catching for a female director. For a time, Xu Cairen's talented female characters have become more and more stable, and at the same time, she has tied the gap with other big stars.

To a certain extent, she has transcended the category of four-dan double ice.

You know, the other big names are just actors. No matter how popular they are, they have almost no independent rights in front of capital. However, the status of directors is different. It is basically the career ceiling in the entertainment industry. Big directors can even challenge capital.

Xu Cairen was so proud of his success that he changed his low profile in the past and frequently accepted interviews. He truly said that "a roc rises with the same wind and soars ninety thousand miles in one day."

Just as happy as she is Han Sanping. After nearly four months, China Film Group has made a movie that makes money.

But Gao Yuanyuan was not very happy. She was already thirty years old and her mouth was pouting.

"Sister Yuanyuan, how about you also learn from Senior Sister Yu and become a director?"

Wei Jin had a bit of teasing on his face, while Gao Yuanyuan had a lazy temperament. She was usually very satisfied running the flower shop and listening to cross talk, but she might not be interested in him.

The drama Liu Tianwang was talking about was "I Know Women's Hearts" jointly produced by Bernard, China Film and Paramount. It was probably difficult to coordinate the schedule, and it was impossible for him to wait for him.

But now that it is produced by Shanhe Media, it is naturally impossible for her to play Zhen Huan, not to mention her Hong Kong accent does not sound like "Huan Huan".

Wei Jin completely believed in this, after all, the current market size was completely different.

As soon as he thought of it, Wei Jin made the first call to Cheng Long. The two had already exchanged phone numbers before on the set of "The King of Kung Fu".

The eldest brother on the phone was very happy. This was the first time Wei Jin had extended an invitation, but he also knew his own advantages and did not give everything to him.

Wang Zixuan is actually very conflicted in her heart. It would be a lie to say she doesn't want to act in movies. As for her acting skills, she also believes that her boss can train and give guidance.

He pulled out a phone number again, dialed it, and was connected within ten seconds.

Sure enough, when she thought about Yu Fei spending seven or eight years and mortgaging her house for a movie, Gao Yuanyuan shuddered involuntarily and quickly refused.

This time he plans to use big-name actors, and big-name stars such as Liu Tianwang and Cheng Long are among his considerations.

Wei Jin didn't have any objections to this. Although Cai Shaofen was once Liu Daxiong's canary, who doesn't have a past that they can't bear to look back on? What's more, judging from her various experiences after marriage, her reputation is quite good.

It is worth mentioning that due to the strong suggestion of the original author, Cai Shaofen from Xiangjiang was added to the cast. It is said that the character Zhen Huan was created based on her.

The assistant who was working hard below him paused after hearing this, raised his head and said.

After a pause, as if she remembered something, Gao Yuanyuan continued.

Wei Jin knew that when he reached Cheng Long's status, he couldn't just rely on his own preference to star in a movie. There were too many factors to consider, and he had to make two preparations.

"A crime movie with a treasure hunt theme"

After hanging up the phone, Wei Jin shook his head. The eldest brother had not agreed yet and only said that he would think about it.

"You are such a little bad guy"
-
Yinghuang was very efficient. A few days after Wei Jin sent the script, Boss Yang held a press conference.

After two unfavorable calls in succession, Wei Jin simply didn't worry.

However, scheduling is a problem. You must know that for people with high status like them, their schedules are usually very full, not to mention that these few are all well-known model workers.

"By the way, she called me on the set and invited us to visit the set. Do you have time?"

"Haha, it's rare for you, Director Wei, to call you, so I must have it. What script is it? I'm afraid I can't handle a science fiction film."

The promotion of "Xiu Chun Dao 2" has entered the final stage. Lu Yang is one of the most famous popular variety shows in China.

"I don't want to. Sister Hong is still paying off her debts. The director's career is too risky."

"Not at the moment. Let's wait until I finish the project at hand. This movie won't be finished in a while."

"Boss, I can't do it. I don't have any performance experience. I'm afraid of screwing up. You'd better let someone else do it."

What's more, after the baptism of the first two movies, audiences and fans have very high expectations for "Ip Man 3". There is no problem at all if the box office exceeds million, and it may even bring bigger surprises.

When reporters asked about box office expectations, Boss Yang was very confident and directly boasted that the box office would exceed 300 million.

"Zixuan, there is a female thief who shows off her figure in the script, and there are quite a few scenes. Do you want to try it?"

There are too many plots in this drama, and it is very troublesome to shoot. The shooting cycle is at least four to five months, so there is no rush in terms of time.

The drama "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has started shooting at the beginning of the month. Yu Feihong plays the role of the queen in many scenes, and Shanhe Media is also very generous in terms of remuneration. Wei Jin guessed that she might want to thank her in person.

"Sister Yuanyuan, you'd better play with me first. After all, I only let her play the role because of your face."

"Well, brother, it's me. Do you have any schedule soon?"

This makes many small production companies jealous with red eyes. You must know that not all crews can have such treatment. Many crews have to establish relationships with TV stations if they want to appear in variety shows.

"Hello, Wei Jin?"

"Well, then I'll go find her and play by myself."

"Hey, Brother Hua, it's me, Wei Jin, it's like this"

After hanging up the phone, Wei Jin felt helpless. It seemed that there was no fate this time.

"Director Wei, I wonder when filming will start? I have already accepted a movie."

Wei and Jin are thinking about casting issues these days. "A League of Thieves" is a commercial movie and it relies on plot to win, so the choice of actors is very important.

After listening to Wei Jin's description, King Liu Tian was a little confused.

I don’t know whether it was out of respect for the original author or because of the friendly cooperation with Cai Shaofen that Jiang Xueyuan gave her the role of Concubine Duan.

The reason why I really don't want to star is that once I star, it means making my debut and becoming a former assistant like Liu Yan and Bai Bin.

Although the two of them look very beautiful, their status in the circle is really not as good as that of Wang Zixuan now.

What's more, the personal assistant can also enjoy the nourishment of the boss from time to time, so life should not be too happy.

So from a certain perspective, Wang Zixuan's rejection is also full of wisdom.

"Then it's up to you. Just tell me when you want to act."

Although he was a little surprised, Wei Jin still respected the assistant's idea, and the audition would be open to the public at worst.

"But you can refuse movie roles, but you can't refuse office roles now."

He reached out and pulled the assistant up, unbuttoned her chest and started playing with it.

"Boss, I'm going to close the door first."

Quickly locking the office door, Wang Zixuan lay down on the desk in obedience, lifted up her hip-covering skirt, and got ready.

"Oh"
-
On this day, Wei Jin accompanied Jing Tian to Nortel. Today was the day of her graduation defense.

"Brother, I'm going to the classroom first. Come over quickly after you finish your work. I'm the ninth one to defend."

As if he was afraid that Wei Jin would miss the time, Jing Tian gave a special warning when he got out of the car.

"Don't worry, I'm just going to deliver something, so there won't be any delay."

Wei Jin walked towards the school history museum, and Zhu Wei followed with a box containing a copy of the Little Golden Man. Teacher Jiang urged him several times.

Many students were surprised to see Wei Jin along the way. After all, it was rare for him to appear on campus. "Hello, Senior Brother Wei."

The greetings came one after another, but Wei Jin felt a little strange.

"Hi boss."

Suddenly a different name came out, and Wei Jin immediately saw a handsome figure walking towards him.

"Nazha, why are you back? How is your dad doing?"

Wei Jin pulled the little girl aside without leaving a trace and asked.

During the Spring Festival, Zhang Xu reported an incident. Nazha's father was hospitalized for a heart attack. The little girl had no money, so she withdrew one million from him.

Wei Jin knew that the heart attack could not be delayed, so he helped them arrange for experts from the Mayo Clinic and even flew their family to North America on a private plane.

"We were lucky. We found a matching donor soon and the operation was successful. After half a month of observation in North America, the doctor said the situation was stable, so we came back."

Naza had a smile on her face. Over the years, her father's illness had almost brought down the family that was still relatively prosperous. Now the weather has finally cleared up.

"That's good, but with your dad's situation, you still have to pay attention to your living habits."

"Yes, yes. The doctor has given you a lot of precautions. Boss, even though I know thanking you is useless, I still want to thank you."

As if thinking of everything Wei Jin had done for her, the little girl mustered up the courage to stand on tiptoes and whisper in his ear.

"I'll be 18 next month"
-
After bidding farewell to Naza, Wei Jin came to the school history museum with ease and handed the two copies of the Oscar statuettes to the school.

Amid the admiration of the registration teacher, Wei Jin left calmly and headed straight for the defense site.

The graduation defense of the acting department was held in the large classroom and had already begun. Wei Jin could only sneak in through the back door.

Zhu Yilong, who was sitting in the back, was startled by the sudden appearance of the person next to him. After seeing clearly that it was Wei Jin, he immediately became nervous.

"Hello, Mr. Wei"

"Well, don't be nervous, I'm going to school to do some errands, so I'll stop by and take a look."

While speaking, Wei Jin looked at Gao Ye who was answering on the stage and was a little surprised.

Normally Gao Ye would look dumb and stupid, but now he was thinking clearly and speaking fluently.

Seemingly attracted by the sound Zhu Yilong made just now, Jing Tian turned his head and saw Wei Jin, with a smile on his face.

Gao on the stage also completed his thesis defense. Several teachers gave good evaluations, and his score is expected to be very high.

Zhu Yilong also came on stage. His thesis was very solid. He may not be very talented, but he is better than hardworking.

"Next, Jingtian."

The little girl stood up and walked onto the stage with a sweet and happy smile.

Teacher Cui seemed to notice something. He turned around and saw Wei Jin sitting behind him.

"Hello teachers, the title of my thesis is "On the Relationship between Actors' Performance Creation and Scripts."

As one of the Four Little Actresses, Jing Tian did not rely on marketing, but has real works and achievements.

Standing on the stage at this time, the little girl exuded incomparable confidence. She could answer every question quickly, with a smile on her face, looking at the teachers and Wei Jin.
-
There are no secrets in the entertainment industry, and the news that Wei Jin is going to start a new movie spread like wildfire.

"According to reliable information, Oscar-winning director Wei Jin's new film is currently undergoing script review."

Many companies in the industry came to inquire whether the news was true. Shanhe Media did not hide it and directly confirmed the matter on its official Weibo.

Now, whether in the circle or online, there is more attention and discussion.

Wei Jin had no time to pay attention to the online discussions. He was thinking about actors in the office.

Chen Xi knocked on the door and walked into the office. She was now almost Wei Jin's royal producer.

"Did Brother get a message back?"

Wei Jin put down the script in his hand, with several names already written on it.

"After consultation, Cheng Long's team felt that the protagonist of the group drama was not very good, which may affect the big brother's status in the industry. Moreover, they felt that it was too risky to share the domestic accounts, so..."

Chen Xi shook his head with regret. In fact, Shanhe Media was already very sincere. 20% of the domestic shareable box office was not low.

But Cheng Long's team also had their own considerations. Based on Wei Jin's best score of 6.68 million, the salary was only 5000 million, which was too far from their psychological price. What's more, it was still a floating income, and the risk was not small.

Wei Jin was a little surprised by this result. It seems that everyone is not particularly optimistic about the domestic box office market.

At this moment, his cell phone rang.

"Hello, brother?"

"Director Wei, I have to explain to you what happened this time. Personally, I am very willing to take on this drama, but you know, as the team grows, there are many things to coordinate and consider. There is really no way. , I can only wait until next time, but I still want to thank you for thinking of me."

The eldest brother explained for a long time on the phone. As expected of an old Jianghu, he fully understands the truth that business cannot be done without righteousness. By the way, he also recommended his son, saying that no matter how big or small the role is, as long as he is suitable, Wei Jin will give him a chance to audition. .

After hanging up the phone, Wei Jin shook his head. The eldest brother can cooperate, but forget about his son.

However, Cheng Long's rejection put him in a difficult position as an actor. His two favorite captain candidates needed to be re-drafted.

"Boss, why don't you consider King Li Tianwang?"

Chen Xi's words made Wei Jin's eyes light up. This was because the authorities were confused. In fact, this king had relatively few works and was too low-key.

But being low-key, he is also very popular in Japan and South Korea, so he is a very suitable choice.

After thinking about it, a name suddenly popped into Wei Jin's mind. He had a gentleman's agreement with him back then.

"Chen Xi, send invitations to King Li Tianwang and Liang Jiahui."

As long as the schedule is right for these two, there is no need to audition at all. Wei Jin can predict the situation on the shooting scene just by relying on his imagination, so there is absolutely no problem.

"Once these two are confirmed, let's send audition notices to the industry for the rest of the roles."
-
In the office, Wei Jin looked at the resume in the email. It was sent from South Korea. They took this role very seriously.

Looking at the various sexy photos that were obviously carefully prepared, Wei Jin lamented the aesthetics of Korean chaebols.

In the original film, Jun Ji-hyun played this role, and she is also on the recommendation list this time.

However, Wei Jin was not very interested in this "savage girlfriend" who was popular in Asia.

On the contrary, a currently unknown female artist with a super hot figure came into his sight.

Although she is only 24 years old, she already has the characteristics of a mature woman. I believe that if she plays the role of a sexy and beautiful female thief, she will definitely attract the attention of many LSPs.

This woman's figure was so overbearing that Wei Jin could imagine the way the male audience in the cinema swallowed their saliva when she was wearing tight clothes and performing tasks.

Even so, the role will not be finalized, and she will have to compete with domestic actresses.

"Chen Xi, inform South Korea that actresses Clara, Jun Ji-hyun, Han Caiying, and Lin Zhizhi will come to China for auditions after May Day."

After looking through the information of these people, Chen Xi was a little speechless. The boss really liked the big ones.

"Okay, Mr. Wei."
