China Entertainment started in 2004

Chapter 279 What do you think of me?

Both Yan Danchen and Zeng Li understand this truth.

Because this kind of art film, which can go to the three major European films, is a springboard for actors like them to not only become famous, but also establish their status in the industry, and even enter the international stage.

This kind of opportunity is rare.

Not to mention starring for zero pay, there are many actors vying for it even if they are given money or actively throw themselves into their arms.

In order to get the role in the TV series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Huang Xiaoming had to give money to Zhang Dabeard.

Not to mention it’s an art film directed by Wang Shu and heading to the Venice Film Festival!

The three of them were chatting, and Wang Shu, who returned home, received a call from Fan Binbin.

"Director Wang, we haven't gotten together since the New Year. Do you want to go have supper together?" Fan Binbin asked with a smile.

Wang Shu set out to pick up Sun Li to eat hot pot in the evening. After eating, he sent Sun Li home. It was only around nine o'clock in the evening.

When he heard this, he touched his stomach and politely declined: "Forget it, it's getting late, so I'd better rest early."

He also knew the purpose of Fan Binbin's sudden call. It was nothing more than a role in the new film.

Wang Shu took the opportunity to sit in Fan Binbin's car, and then was pulled to the place where Fan Binbin had supper.

Combined with these reasons, she is now eager to stand on the top three European stages again.

Fan Binbin looked at Wang Shu approaching with a smile on his face and said quickly: "Get in the car."

When the food was put away and no one was around, Fan Binbin looked at Wang Shu and asked with beautiful eyes, "We haven't seen you for a while. Do you miss me?"

"Haha." Fan Binbin grinned after hearing this.

In addition, just by walking on the red carpet in Berlin, she was called by the domestic media as the fifth mainland actress to go international, and she really attracted the attention of the international media, opening the door to the international market.

"Of course!" Fan Binbin saw Wang Shu's excitement in his eyes and raised his lips.

If Fan Binbin hadn't come, he could have declined politely, but if he refused again now, it would be extremely disrespectful.

"." Wang Shu didn't expect this. He really didn't expect Fan Binbin to be waiting outside the community, so he immediately responded, "Okay, I'll be there right away."

After finishing speaking, I felt that these two simple words were a bit pale, and then added: "I have always wanted to call you before, but I never had the chance, so this time I had time, and I went directly to your place. "

He also commented on Feng Xiaogang and Xu Fan.

If you were someone who doesn't care about men and women, and heard a big star like Fan Binbin say this, you would have turned into an animal that relies on your lower body to think.

Then he looked at Wang Shu and whispered again: "I miss you too."

Wang Shu hung up the phone, got dressed and walked to the intersection outside the community. As soon as he looked up, he saw someone waving from a car parked on the roadside, and then walked over.

Furthermore, Wang Shu is a director who won the International Best Actress Award at Cannes, and the works he writes and directs are different from "Apple".

After all, Fan Binbin’s trip to Berlin came back empty-handed.

"What do you want to eat?" Fan Binbin asked carefully.

But Feng Xiaogang was in front and Xu Fan was behind.

He said that Feng Xiaogang was responsible for doing the work and Xu Fan was responsible for the calculation.

It is now March 2007, and Fan Binbin has been negotiating with Huayi to terminate the contract.

For her, if she happens to be able to star in an art film directed by Wang Shu that can go to the three major European films at this stage, no matter what the outcome is, it will be of great benefit to her career development after she establishes her own business.

The contract will expire in June, and the art film directed by Wang Shu will go to Venice in September.

"Okay, I'll wait." Fan Binbin said with a smile.

In other words, if she can star in the film, her contract with Huayi will be terminated in June. After she establishes her own business, an art film directed by a famous director will be released in Venice in September.

Especially since she has decided to terminate her contract with Huayi.

In terms of time, they are connected.

He had a hot pot meal with Sun Li before and was really not hungry.

Feng Xiaogang was messing around, but Xu Fan had no choice but to endure it for the sake of his money bag, and then he was also messing around.

As an actress and she wants to stand taller, she must be unwilling to do so.

The famous host Xiao Cui said in an interview that Fan Binbin is shameless.

By June, she will successfully terminate her contract with Huayi with the help of Mu Xiaoguang, and then join Chengtian to build her own studio.

"Whatever, I'm not hungry." Wang Shu said.

If you can play the role, you may no longer leave empty-handed.

"I think so." Wang Shu was not surprised by this and replied with a smile.

When Wang Shu heard this, he immediately looked moved and said, "I have always wanted to call you, but I didn't call you after seeing the news."

This job does not mean working, but

Everyone in the industry knows that Feng Xiaogang is messy, and Xu Fan is also messy.

Wang Shu smiled in his heart.

When Fan Binbin heard Wang Shu's polite refusal, he did not give up, but said with a smile: "It's still early, let's go have supper together, I'm at the intersection outside your house now."

After the contract was terminated, she immediately starred in an art film directed by the great director Wang Shu. All aspects were of great help to her.

"Really?" Although Wang Shu smiled in his heart, his face was full of surprise, and he even reacted excitedly.

Seeing that Wang Shu's words didn't seem to be false, Fan Binbin ordered something casually.

The news here refers to Fan Binbin’s failure to take part in the Berlin Film Festival.

It is a sad thing to make sacrifices for art but get nothing.

Although calling him at this time may be for comfort, it may also be adding salt to the wound.

Fan Binbin understood the meaning of Wang Shu's words, smiled back and said, "It's okay."

After finishing speaking, he continued, "I didn't have high hopes in the first place. It was expected that I didn't win the prize in Berlin."

When Wang Shu heard this, he smiled lightly in his heart.

Although Fan Binbin said he didn't care much, he knew that the other party cared very much. It was just because he failed to win the award that he found a way for her to step down.

Furthermore, with Fan Binbin's acting skills, unless he is acting in his true colors, it would be really weird to win three awards in Europe.

Fan Binbin frowned slightly when he saw Wang Shumu not answering the question.

According to normal circumstances, shouldn't Wang Shu express something?

Why do you look like you are listening and waiting for her to continue?

When she saw that Wang Shu was silent, she continued: "However, being able to go to the Berlin Film Festival is also a happy thing."

Wang Shu nodded and said with a smile, "Just be happy."

"." Fan Binbin was speechless when she heard this. This was not the answer she wanted to hear.

She looked at Wang Shu, blinked, and then asked: "I heard that you have prepared an art film and plan to go to the Venice Film Festival?"

This matter has been spread, there is no need to hide it, Wang Shu nodded and said: "Yes, I do plan to go to Venice."

"However, we still don't know whether we can go or not." When Fan Binbin heard the next sentence, she immediately rolled her eyes. She obviously didn't want to get entangled in this issue, but asked: "Where is the actor? Have you selected it? "

"No, the audition will officially start in two days." Although he knew that Fan Binbin was knowingly asking, he answered seriously.

Fan Binbin smiled after hearing this, and then asked: "What do you think of me?"

When Wang Shu heard this, he looked at her seriously, and then replied seriously: "Very beautiful!"

When Fan Binbin heard this, she immediately pursed her lips and showed a dissatisfied look on her face. She said, "I'm asking if there is any role suitable for me?"

She was one of the Four Danes, and everyone around her supported her. Even though Hua Yi was targeting her, Mu Xiaoguang helped her negotiate the termination of the contract, and even helped her connect with resources in Hong Kong Island.

Therefore, Fan Binbin is still very crazy at this stage.

Her arrogance didn't change until she repeatedly provoked Xiao Cui, and was banned after Xiao Cui exposed her contract.

Now it was in the presence of a great director like Wang Shu that Fan Binbin behaved well and politely, but that would not be the case for someone who was not helpful to her.

For example, now, he pretended to be angry and questioned Wang Shu. Obviously, his arrogant nature was exposed again.

Seeing that Fan Binbin finally asked what he wanted to ask, Wang Shu smiled and said, "No."

"Ah?" Fan Binbin was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Wang Shu to refuse so decisively.

This no, in her opinion, was rejection.

She opened her mouth and quickly realized that her attitude was wrong. She quickly whispered again: "Director Wang, I..."

Wang Shu waved his hand and continued as if he didn't care: "I only have one female role in this play, and it was already assigned to Mei Ting, so there is no suitable role for you."

Fan Binbin breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She thought it was Wang Shu who rejected her without saying anything, but she didn't expect there was another reason.

She also reacted at this moment. With Wang Shu's previous infatuated reaction, it was obvious that she couldn't say such a thing.

"Mei Ting?" She looked surprised, this choice was somewhat beyond her expectation.

Wang Shu laughed and said, "We have worked together before when we were filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan". Her acting skills were good, and she said she would appear for free, so we decided to cast her directly."

When he heard that Mei Ting was willing to star in the film for free, Fan Binbin immediately thought of herself.

In the movie "Apple", she got zero pay to star in it.

"Not a penny?" Thinking of this, she asked subconsciously.

"One hundred thousand." Wang Shu replied with a smile.

Fan Binbin opened his mouth when he heard this, already understanding the meaning of a hundred thousand salary.

It's nothing more than not paying a penny is unreasonable, so giving a salary of 100,000 yuan makes sense.

After thinking for a while, he asked with a smile: "Director Wang, if there is an actor who is also willing to star for zero pay, will you change the role?"

She knew that Wang Shu had replaced Hao Su with Zhou Xun when he was filming "The Witch in Plain Clothes". Although the reason was Hao Su, he had done this kind of thing.

"Uh, no." Wang Shu guessed what Fan Binbin was thinking and answered directly.

As if he knew Wang Shu would say this, Fan Binbin smiled and then said: "What if... I said that I would be willing to star for zero pay?"

"Well, this is not a matter of whether you are willing to star for zero pay, but I have already signed a contract with Chengtian." Wang Shu said truthfully.

"Mei Ting is an artist from Chengtian?" Fan Binbin didn't pay attention to this and really didn't know about it, so he asked in surprise.

"Yes." Wang Shu nodded.

Hearing this, Fan Binbin fell silent.

Prior to this, Chengtian had contacted her and reached an intention to cooperate. When the contract with Huayi was terminated, she would cooperate with Chengtian.

If they compete for Mei Ting's role at this time, the meaning is not only to offend Mei Ting, but also to offend other artists in Chengtian.

Moreover, it will also make it difficult for Wang Jinghua.

It’s just that I’m not willing to give in.

"Is there really only one female character?" Fan Binbin asked with wide eyes.

When she thought about it, with Wang Shu's infatuated look, as long as she showed her attitude, the other party would definitely not refuse.

Wang Shu explained with a smile: "This is a man's drama, and the main perspective is men. There is really only one important female character, and the others are supporting roles."

When Fan Binbin heard this, his eyes instantly showed disappointment.

She thought that she would be able to get the role nine times out of ten after having a late-night meal today, but she didn't expect it to be wrong.

Now that I think about it, the only thing to blame is that it was too late for me to get the news, and it was also too late for me to call Wang Shu.

If it was ahead of Mei Ting, it might be different.

She suddenly became confused: "Didn't you say you would only audition in two days? Why have you signed a contract with Mei Ting now?"

Of course, Wang Shu would not answer this question truthfully. He said: "The audition will not officially start until two days later, but it will mainly be for male roles."

"And there is only one female character, so there is no need to go to such trouble."

Fan Binbin understood what Wang Shu meant, sighed in his heart, and lit a cigarette to smoke.

Most female artists in the entertainment industry smoke, whether it is Fan Binbin, Zhou Xun, Qin Hailu, Zhou Haiwei, etc. all smoke.

However, after Zhou Haiwei suffered severe pharyngitis due to smoking, he quit the smoking habit.

According to her, she learned to smoke when she was young for filming needs.

Then came the habit of smoking.

Fan Binbin took a puff of the cigarette and saw Wang Shu looking straight at her. He suddenly felt a little embarrassed and quickly put out the cigarette in his hand with his face getting hot.

She knew that Wang Shu did not smoke, but now she not only smoked in front of Wang Shu, but also let Wang Shu breathe in second-hand smoke.

I was in a daze just now, and I couldn't help but take out my cigarette and light it.

It's very embarrassing now.

Wang Shu smiled and said, "If you want to smoke, just do it. It'll be fine."

"No." Fan Binbin responded with a dry smile, and then explained, "Actually, I don't smoke much, I just smoke occasionally."

Wang Shu nodded. Although he didn't believe these nonsense at all in his heart, he looked like he believed it on the surface.

Fan Binbin didn't eat much in order to stay in shape, and Wang Shu didn't eat much because he wasn't hungry.

After a while, the supper was over.

"I drank, you drive."

Returning to the parking position, Fan Binbin threw the car keys to Wang Shu and said with a smile.

"Okay." Wang Shu took the key.

He only drank a few drinks and did not drink. For safety reasons, he was indeed more suitable to drive than Fan Binbin.
