308 Stuck in the quagmire

Lu Jian chose to tell the truth: "Sister Ling, I'm not suitable. If "My Fair Lady" challenges audiences of all ages, it is not an idol drama that only targets girls' wallets."

Huang Meiling's face was obvious and unhappy, but she quickly replaced it with a smile: "It's okay, I'll go and ask the person you mentioned again."

"Thanks for your hard work."

The entire casting process is progressing slowly, and Lu Jian even wants to entrust the casting director with full authority, but he is not very relieved.

Casting during the day and fighting with the script consultant at night.

"Brother Jian, I'm really not sure this joke is funny."

Lu Jian wants to say that this is a joke from Stephen Chow, a young man.

But he still held back: "Believe me, it will be funny to show it in the end."

"In this way... let's be more secure and use some charming dramas instead of risky jokes."

"Character drama?"

"It's just a scene where the heroine's thighs, take a shower, and shoot the hero's muscles. It doesn't take too much. It's a few minutes in total, and it's moderately exciting to the audience." The consultant gestured, "It's like pepper, sprinkle a little."

"This part is already there, and it will be bloated if there are more."

"It's like this insurance, I've hired such a big-name art supervisor." The consultant's tone gradually became stronger, "The most important thing is that the male protagonist must be younger."

Lu Jian rubbed his forehead and said, "I thought that no matter how young you are, only two big names, Chao Ge and A Kun, can handle it. Their pay is equivalent to our budget for the entire drama."

The consultant immediately pulled Lu Jian and advised: "Sincere don't die like this, Brother Jian, Yang Hui is also in that position."

Lu Jian said in surprise: "Are you serious?"

"Yang Hui can do it, it's very suitable for his own drama, is it easy to say that his salary is right?"

Lu Jian was ridiculous and wailing: "Then you can just replace the heroine with Da Meiling."

"Hey! It's really not possible. They took action personally and got the box office nine-digit bottom!"

"Absolutely not." Seeing that the consultant took it seriously, Lu Jian didn't dare to joke anymore. "If they were on, the entire script would have to be rewritten, and the acting requirements would be greatly reduced. All the special styles would be ruined. Moreover, this is a music movie, their singing skills..."

"It's your interest to let my sister and Xia Ge sing?"

"You can sing on behalf of others, but they really can't."

"Hi……"

...

The film preparations were gone day by day. During the entire preparation stage, Lu Jian felt that he was trapped in a quagmire. Every thing he did was sticky and could not be pulled out once he stepped in. Professionals such as art and photography guidance can be quickly taken, but the casting process was difficult, and the detailed script was even more unrecognizable to the team.

Over the whole week, Lu Jian felt that he was working hard, but the entire project only pushed the slightest, knocking down some characters that were not painful or itchy.

This inevitably hits people's enthusiasm, but whenever I visit Azhen's recipes in the vegetable market, Lu Jian will pick up those things again and devote enough enthusiasm to prepare again.

The training on the other side was extremely smooth. Lu Jian planned ahead and forced Xia Ge to conduct acting training, and he also took a break from his busy schedule to continue to work hard on the director's skills.

Although the film preparations are difficult, the publicity is ahead, which is also the winning weapon of Yang Hui and Huang Meiling. All kinds of news have been released. Although it is not too hot, the names of "Star Factory" and "Yang Hui and Huang Meiling" are placed here, and at least they have gained some attention. Lu Jian also took a break from his busy schedule to assist in public relations.

[The music film promised by Star Factory is about to start filming, and Lu Jian personally took the initiative and joined forces with Yang Hui and Huang Meiling.]

[Official reply from Star Factory: Making movies will not affect music production, and fewer company resources will be drawn.]

[Lu Jian: Don’t guess the protagonist candidate, you can’t guess it.]

Although it was just a normal cooperation and a normal message was sent, both passers-by and supporters of Star Factory were not optimistic.

"Whoever is famous now wants to make movies?"

"Please, Master Jian, make music well. Don't shoot a few MVs and don't know who you are!"

"Even if you make a movie... don't get involved with Da Meiling!"

"It's expanded, Lu Jian is expanded. Just be a music director. I have to direct it myself."

"Working with Da Meiling... Is Jian Ye forcing us to become a fan and a black man?"

"It's rumored that it's enough to sign Zhen Jie's old bastard's daughter. I'll be fucking dead!"

"Damn, my favorite people walk with the most hated people, and I'm desperate!"

These suspicions are by no means a black public relations, but because Yang Hui and Huang Meiling, especially Da Meiling, have a bad reputation. They can still make a lot of money after being poor in bad dramas. It is worrying that Lu Jian is the director himself, and it is undoubtedly difficult to get involved with them.

Lu Jian originally wanted to explain that the couple are actually very good people, but you are not their audience, and they have no right to interfere with the content of the movie in this drama.

But after thinking about it, I still give up. Such an explanation will definitely attract more criticism, and I guess Dameiling is not feeling well when she sees it.

Let’s talk with your works. After all, I am a Virgo in the movie. This time I don’t have any tricks and have to be as sincere as a Virgo.

...

In the new week, the crew preparatory meeting and the whispers of cars poured into Lu Jian's ears again.

They had their ideas, and Lu Jian had their ideas, and kept talking nonstop, and they were still out of the way for a week.

The more Lu Jian listened, the more noisy he became. If he continued like this, he would not compromise. This matter would be endless and could be dragged over in a year or two.

"Okay, stop talking, listen to me." Lu Jian finally couldn't help but raise his arms and said, "I advocate letting everyone here give full play to their freedom, but your direction is too consistent."

The originally noisy atmosphere instantly became dull.

After the few people looked at each other secretly, the script consultant giggled: "Brother Jian, it's all for the sake of selling well, and it's normal for the same direction."

The art director nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this is also our work, we must be responsible for our brand."

The casting director said secretly: "Brother Jian, you really can't choose these requirements..."

Lu Jian glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "I just want to shoot a movie honestly. If you don't go as you say, isn't it okay?"

"Brother Jian... we have worked for a few more years after all."

"It's unpleasant to say, Brother Jian."

"The first time director, it's a little more secure, nothing wrong with it."

Although the crew members said beautifully, behind those smiling faces, there is a simple truth that cannot be simpler than the truth, good people are bullied.

How could Lu Jian not know their little abacus?

Zhen Zhen is the same everywhere, whether it is the vegetable market or the film crew.
