My singer girlfriend is super fierce

Wang Qiang's team was a little hesitant about the role invitation from "Detective Chinatown".

It's not because of the salary. In fact, the 40 million salary offered by the other party is not small, at least it is at the upper-middle level in the industry. There are other crews that offer higher salaries, but they will more or less bring some additional conditions.

The main reason is that this is a comedy!

From the shooting of the first movie to now, Wang Qiang has been in the industry for 17 years. He has acted in many works and won many honors. He has even been crowned the best actor at foreign award ceremonies, and more than once.

But if there is any "regret", the only thing is that he has not won the best actor in China.

The closest time to this honor was a nomination last year, but unfortunately he missed it in the end.

Therefore, Wang Qiang's next goal is definitely to be crowned the best actor in China, and this will be a key consideration in the selection of scripts.

And there is an unwritten consensus in the industry - comedy films do not produce best actors.

The "stereotyped" acting style of the characters in comedy films has led to the judges of major awards automatically excluding comedians when selecting the "Best Actor" award, no matter how high the box office of the film is.

Therefore, the script of "Detective Chinatown" is not in line with Wang Qiang's subsequent career plan.

But if it were an ordinary person, it would be fine, but this was a role invitation from Ye Zhiqiu.

You know, as a new director, Ye Zhiqiu may only have one work "No Man's Land", which is not convincing enough. But as a screenwriter, he is currently the only "billion-dollar screenwriter", a ceiling in the industry.

Moreover, Ye Zhiqiu's scripts are not only strong at the box office, but also not weak in awards. He "sent" Huang Zhengmin to the position of the best actor with "Dying to Survive", which is a real "achievement".

For any actor, it is of great benefit to have a good relationship with such a "gold medal screenwriter + director".

At this time, agent Zheng Qi was also very conflicted. After thinking for a moment, he sighed and said, "Or, let's not take this script."

"The pay is not that high. The key is that this is a comedy."

"You played a lot when you just debuted. At that time, you were criticized online for being crazy and stupid. Now we are in this position. If we have a choice, there is no need to play this kind of role again."

Wang Qiang looked a little hesitant and said, "But I think this story is good. I feel that this role is very suitable for me, just like it was tailor-made for me, and it must be very enjoyable to play. "

"That's useless, no matter how enjoyable it is, you can't win the Best Actor Award." Zheng Qi advised earnestly, "Qiangzi, what you lack now is not a comedy, but a movie that can make you win the Best Actor Award."

"If he sent a movie like "Dying to Survive", we would have accepted it immediately, but it happened to be a comedy, and it was a detective suspense, which was too unpopular."

"I think the script of the art film the day before yesterday is still good, with depth and connotation, You will probably win an award if you act. "

Wang Qiang shook his head and said, "I can't understand that script. I don't think I can act that way."

After that, Wang Qiang seemed to have made up his mind and immediately said, "I've decided. I'll take on the role of 'Tang Ren'!"

"Such a great screenwriter, and the director can take a fancy to me. I can't let others down. Maybe if we work well together, they will think of me next time there is a good movie, and I can win an award."

"This... well, okay." Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Zheng Qi could only agree helplessly.

After years of cooperation, he knew that although Wang Qiang looked honest, he was actually a very opinionated person with his own set of principles. In his opinion, he was just too straightforward and not smart enough.

But since Wang Qiang had made up his mind, as an agent he could only obey.

Then Zheng Qi took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

After the call was connected, his tone immediately became enthusiastic.

"Hey, is this Mr. Lu? Hello!"

"Yes, yes, I'm Wang Qiang's agent Zheng Qi. It's like this. We agree to take on the role of 'Tang Ren'. What do you think..."

On the other end of the phone was Lu Ping, the head of Huahai Entertainment's film and television department. The two chatted for a while. After the general intention of cooperation was confirmed, another voice sounded from the other end.

Zheng Qi's smile became more enthusiastic when he heard it.

"Is it Zhiqiu?! Hey, hello, hello!"

"Yes, we are also honored to have this opportunity. I hope everyone will have a pleasant cooperation..."

"Wang Qiang? He's here! Okay, I'll give him the phone now."

After that, Zheng Qi handed the phone to Wang Qiang on the side and mouthed the three words "Ye Zhiqiu".

After Wang Qiang took the phone, he was full ofAfter chatting for more than ten minutes, he finally hung up the phone with a grin.

"Zhiqiu talked to me about the details of the role of 'Tang Ren' and his ideas for the subsequent filming. He said that this role was tailor-made for me and he found me as soon as possible."

"I feel that Zhiqiu is a little different from other directors, really, we had a good chat."

"It's this role. They will send the contract now. After we read it, we will go to Huahai to sign it in person!"

At this time, Zheng Qi could only nod in agreement, but he couldn't help muttering in his heart.

If others say it's tailor-made, you will believe it. Anyway, he doesn't believe it a little.

......

At the same time, in Zhejiang Province, a community.

In the living room, a well-maintained mature woman who looked about 40 years old put down her phone and shouted excitedly, "Yueyue! Yueyue! Come on!"

A quiet little girl who looked like a junior high school student and had a pretty face walked out of the room and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

"The crew of "Detective Chinatown" just called!" The mature woman said excitedly, "Your resume has been approved, and they invite you to Huahai for a live casting audition!"

The mature woman's name is Qiu Hong. The junior high school girl Zhang Yue is her daughter and also a young actor. She also serves as her daughter's agent.

Unlike other child stars who debuted and can star in movies at a young age, Zhang Yue can only be regarded as a third-tier actor. Apart from playing a small supporting role with a few lines in two TV dramas, there is no other work to show.

However, when seeing the casting information for the role of "Sinuo" issued by the crew of "Detective Chinatown", Qiu Hong did not hesitate and signed up for her daughter who met the age requirements.

Although she knew that this was Ye Zhiqiu's self-written and directed work, and the competition would be extremely fierce, she also voted with the mentality of "casting a wide net". Anyway, it's always right to give it a try. Unexpectedly, she really received a call from the program team.

"Mom, it's just an audition, it's not confirmed yet." Looking at the current "forgetful of success", Zhang Yue reminded softly.

Unlike her youthful and innocent appearance, Zhang Yue's inner thoughts are more mature and she can see many things clearly.

"Oh, right! It's not certain that she will be selected." Qiu Hong restrained herself a little, but then said happily: "But I think you have a great chance, Yueyue!"

"Think about it, your fame is not as good as other actors, so why were you chosen by the crew to audition on the spot? It must be because the character image is suitable!"

"By the way! The crew also sent the role introduction and script. You should take a look and familiarize yourself with the role. Mom will go to find a teacher now. There is still one day for intensive tutoring!"

"I must get this role!"
