Chapter 166 The choice of the hero and heroine(1/2)
The next day.
After Yue Guan woke up, Gao Yuanyuan had already left.
Nothing was left behind.
Yue Guan looked down at himself, feeling like a weak man who was abandoned after playing.
Maybe this is life.
Yue Guan silently accepted this cruel reality.
When he was pretentious, Wang Jing's phone call came.
"Come to my room."
After saying this, Wang Jing hung up the phone.
Yue Guan got up, took the time to wash it briefly, and then went to Wang Jing's room.
After seeing Yue Guan, Wang Jing handed him the script he had revised: "I changed it for the middle of the night last night. Your main plot is very complete. You don't need to make major changes, just fill in the details. Do it yourself or find some assistant screenwriters to do it. I've added some small settings for you to make this script more in-depth."
Yue Guan asked Wang Jing while reading the script: "Brother Jing, what have you added?"
"For example, Lei Yifang gave Yu Zhen the so-called 'priceful' heart of the ocean and set it into a fake. Since he is a villain of all members, don't let the audience sympathize with any character, and don't lower the IQ of any character. The confrontation with each other is the most amazing thing."
Yue Guan exclaimed: "Brother Jing is Brother Jing, he is indeed professional."
"Also, it is natural to set Lei Yifang's bankruptcy to support local warlords to resist the king's army, so that his company's business problems and his rush to run away to the United States and his covetousness of a true noble status, and the script is more politically correct."
These are all details.
It's all kung fu.
Wang Jing has added a lot of this kind of similar details.
After reading Wang Jing's fine-tuned script, Yue Guan gave Wang Jing a thumbs up: "Brother Jing changed a script with 80 points to 90 points."
Wang Jing waved his hand: "Your original script has 85 points, and I will add you at most five points."
But the more you go up, the harder it is.
Being able to add five points is enough to reflect Wang Jing's strength.
"After this, you can just find someone to fill in some details. There are no more problems." Wang Jing sat opposite Yueguan and began to discuss the specific implementation details with Yueguan: "When are you going to start this project?"
"The faster the better, I am still going to take advantage of the popularity of "Taiping Wheel". How bad is Wu Baige's "Taiping Wheel" filmed? How big surprises can our "Taiping Wheel" bring to the audience. I'm afraid of comparison in everything, and I even want to release this movie at the same time as "Taiping Wheel", postponing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Demon Sect Leader"."
Wang Jing seriously thought about this possibility: "If Wu Baige's "Taiping Wheel" was very poor, it would be OK to do so."
If a movie wants to get a good box office, in addition to its own quality, it also needs the highlight of its peers.
If it weren't for the same period, it wouldn't be played, and the box office miracle of "Wolf Warrior 2" wouldn't be that kind of miracle.
The same is true for "The Wandering Earth". Ning Hao and Stephen Chow's new movies were all bad, and then they broke the ball and stood out and became the final winner.
In some specific time periods, the audience will definitely go to watch the movie, either watching this one or that one.
Some viewers do have only time or money to watch a movie.
Therefore, it is very important to find an opponent who can fight with pressure.
Wu Baige's "Taiping Wheel" is the soft persimmon in Yue Guan's eyes.
Wang Jing does not have the confidence of Yue Guan, but he has also read the script of "Taiping Wheel" and is really a bit confident.
"If you really want to fight the ring, the speed will be accelerated. When will your investment be achieved?" Wang Jing asked.
Yue Guan calculated the time: "within one week."
Wang Jing thought for a while and said, "I should be able to do it in one week, and the crew couldn't spend so much money at the beginning of its establishment. So we will prepare after discussing today. The crew's behind-the-scenes staff will then enter the crew."
Yueguan has no objection.
The two movies "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" were filmed very smoothly. In addition to Wang Jing's contribution, the people behind the scenes also contributed greatly.
Wang Jing has already used it and they are so I will continue to let him use it. Yue Guan doesn't care about this.
As long as he continues to invest, Wang Jing will definitely give him enough voice. Wang Jing's character is still trustworthy in this regard.
"Where are the actors? What do you think?"
"I have a connection with the Chinese dialect side, so I can bring in many Chinese dialect teachers as guest appearances." Yue Guan thought for a while, and then added: "Maybe you don't have any money."
Wang Jing's eyes twitched.
Many of the artists at the National Theater are national first-class actors.
The passengers on the Taiping wheel come from all walks of life and do need many people to play supporting roles.
Finding ordinary supporting roles is not attractive, but finding these big names to make guest appearances will definitely add a lot of glory.
"Then I'll leave it to you." Wang Jing decisively blamed him: "These people can increase the box office by at least 10 million."
Although not many, no matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat.
"Where are the three main characters, which one are you going to play? It should be Yan Zekun, right?" Wang Jing said.
Yue Guan nodded: "Yes, Yan Zekun."
In his script, there are actually two male protagonists and one female protagonist, and the three characters have similar scenes.
However, in terms of ranking, Yan Zekun will rank ahead of Lei.
Yue Guan organized a game himself, of course he would not give it to others.
This was expected by Wang Jing.
"You play Yan Zekun, who do you like the other male protagonist Lei Yifang? How about Tingfeng?" Wang Jing suggested on his own initiative.
He is still willing to support his old friend's son.
However, Yue Guan did not give Wang Jing this face: "The main plot of this drama revolves around Yan Zekun Lei and Yu Zhen. In addition to the special effects, it is the three actors. Chef Xie cannot hold on, either in terms of acting or fame."
Yue Guan has no negative impression of Chef Xie.
But by looking at Chef Xie’s box office performance, you can tell that he really has no big hit movies.
Hong Kong films made him successful and restricted him.
It cannot attract passersby.
Wang Jing was not disappointed, anyway, just said casually: "Who do you think of?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. I hope that the role of Lei Yifang is a person who is not worse than me in acting, but not better than me. His status and popularity are best met the standards of first-line stars, so that he can be worthy of the investment in this drama."
Yueguan’s requirements are not low, but Wang Jing can understand it.
His acting skills are no worse than Yue Guan, so it is guaranteed that this drama will not be criticized by the audience in terms of acting skills.
It's not better than Yue Guan, so I guarantee that this drama will not be made for others' wedding dresses.
but……
"Where is a first-line male star in the entertainment industry who has a good acting skills from you? Lei Yifang is not very big according to the script. There are not many young actors who meet this standard."
When Yue Guan heard the words "Five-five-up" in acting, he suddenly thought of someone.
"Brother Jing, what do you think of Huang Xiaoming?"
Wang Jing carefully said: "Popularity and status meet the standards, and the national popularity is sufficient. According to the script setting, Lei Yifang is older than Yan Zekun and has the right age. With temperament, Lei Yifang is barely considered a domineering president. Although it is a bankrupt version, Huang Xiaoming should also play it. But does his acting skills meet the requirements? Yue Guan, Huang Xiaoming's acting skills are notoriously unstable. I have confidence in you, but I don't have much confidence when you ask me to train him."
Yue Guan was very confident in the leader: "The leader's acting skills have always been with others. When he debuted, he would not be inferior to his acting skills. After all, he was a young actor who debuted in a serious drama, so he could still look forward to the upper limit."
Unless Yue Guan’s acting skills are poor, there is no need to worry too much about the leader’s acting skills.
After all, he is the emperor, Wuwukai, Xiao Ming.
Wang Jing thought about Huang Xiaoming's performance in some serious dramas, and nodded slowly: "Let him try the drama, Yue Guan, we should try not to take risks in this drama. Although Lei Yifang doesn't have many choices, there are still other choices."
The middle school stars of the Dragon Kingdom can beat a lot.
However, at this stage, there are very few male stars whose national popularity exceeds that of the leader.
If the leader and Yang Tianbao were married a few years later, Yue Guan would definitely not consider the leader, so it would have a real effect of persuading him to retreat.
But the leader can still look forward to it now.
"Dragon Country Partners", which won numerous awards in the film industry, has not yet been released. The leader has not reached its peak yet, let alone the decline after the peak.
The only problem is that Yue Guan has agreed to let the leader act in "Langya Bang: The Wind Rises in Changlin". If the leader is brought to the new crew, "Langya Bang: The Wind Rises in Changlin" may have to be replaced or wait.
However, Yue Guan took a look at Wang Jing.
If Wang Jing is a director, he may not have to consider this issue.
After all, this is a famous fast gunner.
As long as the filming is done, it is definitely not a delusion to resolve the battle within one month.
"Where is the heroine? Do you want to choose from Yuanyuan, Amin or Doudou?" Wang Jing took the local materials: "It just happened to continue to cooperate, and the price was easy to negotiate. As long as you speak, they would definitely be willing to accept it."
Yue Guan shook his head: "None of them can do it, Brother Jing, don't you think the role of Yu Zhen should be played by a female star who looks very simple and fairy?"
Wang Jing pondered for a moment and nodded, "It's true. The simpler and innocent character Yu Zhen's previous role is, the greater the impact it will bring to the audience when the ending is reversed. It is true that you should find a female star who looks like a good woman and is simple and silly and sweet. This does not require too much acting skills at all, and the audience will preconceive her assertion that she is innocent."
