Chapter 129 Interest exchange?
Life is like a play. Chen Mengxi is a reborn person. He was in the entertainment industry in his previous life. It is difficult for producers to admire and awe for these stars.
Let me put it this way, he knows better than anyone what is hidden behind the so-called stars.
Of course he knew that Li Xiaowan had an appointment with him for dinner, so he could not just thank him...
It should also be aiming at "Mobile Maze"...
Tsk, a Hollywood movie is not a blockbuster, with an investment of less than 40 million US dollars, and a B-level scale, a group of people and dogs bite like bones.
Don't understand what these people think?
Can you double your value by going to Hollywood to make a soy sauce?
never mind…
Back to the topic just now, why didn’t he drink?
Of course, it is to avoid losing your composure after drinking;
After all, the reborn person has a huge secret!
Also, he did drive...
He didn't want to learn from Wu Jing. He was poached for drunk driving more than ten years later, leaving behind the famous saying "There are thousands of roads, the first safety, irregular driving, and tears for relatives"...
Of course, this is also his status, otherwise, Li Xiaowan would designate to say, 'I'll find a delegate driver for you'...
...
Li Xiaowan took the initiative to talk about "Rose Red Lotus", and felt very sorry: "You should have been invited to join the crew at that time!"
“…Haha, actually, I just returned to my hometown at that time and was about to go into seclusion to write a book…”
"Did the Ghost Blow the Light?"
"right!"
Lin Shen interrupted: "I especially like "Ghost Blows Out the Light". At first I thought the author was an old man..."
Chen Mengxi smiled: "Aren't there many netizens saying I'm plagiarizing!"
"…That's because you are popular, so a bunch of people spread rumors and messing around with the car!"
"Why don't you argue?"
Chen Mengxi casually said: "If an expert debates with an outsider, he will be an outsider!"
Li Xiaowan asked: "How did you think of the story of "Ghost Blows Out the Light"?"
Chen Mengxi smiled and shrugged: "It's nothing. I've seen it a lot and thought of it."
This sentence is very pretentious, but Li Xiaowan nodded: "So the thinking of writers is different from that of ordinary people. We think we have to experience it personally, but they can easily write it. This is called personality substitution?"
"…Ha ha."
Chen Mengxi smiled again.
"What about "Mobile Maze"?"
"…I watched this one after watching the "Twilight" big sale before I started writing it!"
Yang Xiaomi asked in confusion: "Twilight City? I watched "Mobile Maze", there were no werewolfs, vampires..."
"But both are teenagers' themes. I think if the work on this theme is adapted into a movie, some viewers should be willing to buy it, so I started writing it... Sure enough, as soon as it was published, a company asked me to buy the adapted version..."
Li Xiaowan looked full of admiration: "So, this is talent!"
"I heard that Twentieth Century Fox has obtained the adaptation rights?"
Chen Mengxi nodded: "...Well, they started very quickly and they were rewarded with the highest reward."
After looking at Lin Shen, Li Xiaowan said again: "Why casting audition?"
Chen Mengxi put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth: "…In February, David will fly to China, let's discuss finding a few Chinese actors..."
"Look for a few? Aren't three?"
"The three Asian actors are not necessarily all Chinese actors. South Korea also wants to recommend one... I don't hide it from you, the one who contacted us is rain!"
Li Xiaowan looked at Yang Xiaomi: "Who is Rain?"
Yang Xiaomi replied: "The King of Korea, who took on "Speed Racer" last year...is very famous!"
Chen Mengxi then added: "Rain has a certain popularity throughout Asia. There happened to be a character named Minghao in "Mobile Maze"..."
He lifted Rain...
Not a lie, Twenty-year-old Fox really likes him - a man who was shined by Qiao Mei!
To put it in, Qiao Mei is so amazing. Anyone who is consecrated by her has a good prospect. Lee Byung-hun and Rain have all entered Hollywood...
Song Seung-heon, what's wrong with you?
Li Xiaowan's face changed, but she quickly smiled: "...I want you to help introduce us to Lin Shen..."
Chen Mengxi: "No problem. When the audition is open, anyone can come. Moreover, Mr. Lin once studied in Australia, so the language can be easily passed!"
Then Li Xiaowan opened up the topic and talked about the story of Rongxingda's entrepreneurship...
Chen Mengxi nodded in agreement while listening, occasionally saying "What about?" Anyway, he was a very qualified listener...
That's it?
Let Lin Shen try a mirror in four hours?
Is there something wrong?
He can go by himself!
Although the casting conditions are about 20 years old, Lin Shen doesn’t look old and has muscles. Maybe he can be selected!
Even if you can't play a supporting role, it's still okay to play a soy sauce man.
In a word, when choosing the heroine in "Lust and Caution", it is required to be 19-23 years old, have a devilish figure, extraordinary intelligence, elegant and classical temperament, etc. In the end, I chose Tang Wei, who was 27 years old!
It is said that it is because Tang Wei looks like his Mandarin teacher...
After the dinner, Chen Mengxi stood up and prepared to say goodbye: "Then I'll leave first..."
"Xiaomi, I'll give it to you!"
"OK!"
While talking, Li Xiaowan handed her a room card in a vague way...
Chen Mengxi didn't notice this and refused: "No, I drove my own car!"
"...Then brother will give me some gift!"
"…OK."
...
Yang Xiaomi was sitting in the passenger seat, holding her chin slightly, her eyes a little intoxicated - she had just drunk half a pound...
He whispered: "Producer, can I call your brother in the future?"
"...Forget it, it's too ambiguous..." Chen Mengxi looked at her through the rearview mirror, mainly looking at her chest, retracting her eyes, and said seriously: "We are both from Beijing Electric, you should call me my name or senior brother!"
"I knew it was a little abrupt just now..."
"No, what abruptness is this? I used to drink with a boss, and he took off his pants in public just to show us the scars on his thighs!"
“…really? Who?”
Chen Mengxi casually replied: "A coal boss..."
"You guys who make movies are so good, you can meet many people!"
"…So what if you know more people? People interact with people and look at the accumulated feelings... I tell you, you must cherish the friends you make now, and you must not be so proud of them. Whoever is popular will play with them, otherwise you will not even have a bridesmaid if you get married..."
Yang Xiaomi obviously didn't want to hear what he said, and interrupted him a little rudely: "Senior brother, is your casting of "Mobile Maze" public audition?"
"Yeah, open audition!"
"Then can I go?"
Chen Mengxi looked at her again: "...Of course I can go!"
She quilted: "Okay, then I will definitely go!"
“…I think we will take root in the domestic market first and then consider it…”
"Your drama, a bunch of people want to get on your head!"
“Yes…”
"Of course," she leaned her body slightly towards Chen Mengxi, and then stared at him: "You won't know, do you?"
"...Not as exaggerated as you said. I invited an actor several times, but she refused!"
"Who? So lack of vision?"
“…you don’t know…”
At the end of the topic, Yang Xiaomi rolled her eyes and asked, "Senior Brother, do you think our "Painted Skin" can pass the review?"
"…certainly!"
"Then tell me how to pass the review of the movie?"
"...This...first of all, there must be a script outline that can pass the review..."
"I heard many people say that "Painted Skin" cannot pass the review. How dare you use so much investment to make this film?"
Oh, this topic hit Chen Mengxi's itchy point, and he immediately replied: "Look, there can be mythological dramas on the small screen, but it doesn't matter on the big screen. Since ghosts cannot appear, then change ghosts to monsters..."
"…You are so awesome, you can think of this!"
"No, actually there is a rumor in the industry, 'If you want love not to be deleted, don't take off your clothes', 'The police and gangster films have been insured, and the anti-corruption tone must be firmly grasped', and 'If you want to think about ghost films, just talk about mental issues'..."
