New Age Artists

Chapter 444 Too many people are trying to figure out what I am thinking! (33)

Hearing this, Jiang Wei smiled bitterly.

When writing this play, the male and female protagonists were based on Xin Baiqing and Zhu Yuanyuan.

Unexpectedly, after the script was written, Zhu Yuanyuan became pregnant and the original cast had to be overturned and started over.

For the male lead Yu Zecheng, Jiang Wei required that he must not look handsome and sunny, or have thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Sun Honglei with his squinty eyes is very suitable.

He has seen many of the other party's plays, and he has very strong acting skills and a certain degree of fame.

After reading the script, Sun Honglei was also very interested and even took the initiative to challenge him to act in the role. The two hit it off immediately.

Sun Honglei also gave Jiang Wei an idea to use Yao Chen to play Cuiping.

Jiang Wei originally planned to find an actress with a carefree appearance and who looked like a rural woman to play the role, but when he saw Yao Chen, his eyes lit up and he felt that Yao Chen was someone who could bring surprises to the whole show.

Then, when it came to Shen Santong, he refused to let it go.

The producer of Deep Sea Culture hinted that Shen Santong was not satisfied with Yao Chen.

Jiang Wei glanced at Sun Honglei who was giving him advice, and the other party just smiled and said nothing.

Sun Honglei does not interfere in the selection of the female lead.

When Shen Santong made his debut film, he was the first choice for the robber, but unfortunately the script was not handed to him.

It is a great regret for Sun Honglei.

Missed a good opportunity to establish cooperation with Shen Santong.

He can also play Dao Ge in "Stone".

There is also a role suitable for him in "Racing", what a pity.

Upon learning that Shen Santong was optimistic about "The Disguiser", Sun Honglei regarded this play as a stage to showcase his acting skills.

Jiang Wei thought for a moment and said, "The actor who plays Cui Ping must be full of vitality, carefree, and able to carry herself in the play, and at least form a chemical reaction with Hong Lei."

"Song Jia's face looks a bit bitter, Yang Rong is a little girl, Gao Lu is not generous enough, and Fan Bingbing is too gaudy. The makeup can be changed, but it will not be natural."

"Ke Lan's looks are relatively suitable, but she's a little too old, and she's not a professional actress, so she can't take on the role."

Shen Santong nodded: "Kelan was born in 72, so he is indeed a bit old. Yu Zecheng has been away from home for 14 years."

"He went to college, so he probably left home to go to college. He should have been around 18 years old at the time, so he should be over 32 years old."

"Cui Ping's sister Qiu Ping was 25 when she died. Cui Ping should have been at least 26 years old, probably around 28."

"The most suitable actress is someone who is in her 79s or 80s. Is that Yang Yu?"

Yang Xue was born in 78, and graduated from the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy in 99.

It's like turning "The Little Fish and the Flowerless" into "The Legend of Jiang Yuyan".

It’s a pity that no one supports me and I don’t have many opportunities.

She has a good-looking appearance, but she is not glamorous.

Press it down and spread your pussy as she does.

Jiang Wei was somewhat helpless. Shen Santong had read the script in depth.

On the one hand, she does respect him, but on the other hand, the heroine clearly excludes Yao Chen.

Jiang Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Actresses are well maintained and can be older. What do you think of Yan Ni?"

Shen Santong was surprised and asked, "Sister Ni, is she okay? She is thirty-six years old, right?"

Zhang Jing from Dongyang Qingyu raised her eyebrows, but Sun Honglei still smiled.

Sister Ni, listen to your name.

Shen Santong denied Yao Chen and they wondered why.

After much thought, I came up with a guess that Shen Santong and Yan Ni had a good relationship, and Yao Chen and Yan Ni had a fight in "Wulin Waijiao".

Sun Honglei said: "Director Shen, I think Yan Ni is very suitable, her acting is better than mine."

Shen Santong really hadn't thought of letting Yan Ni play the role, and said hesitantly: "He's too old, so the role should be the most important. How about this, let Yan Ni and Yang Yu try out the role together?"

"If you have suitable candidates, you can come and try."

Shen Santong just doesn't like Yao Chen.

She also spoke about the Flower of Evil, the refugee issue, and masks.

As long as it’s not Yao Chen, it doesn’t matter who plays him.

The female lead still needs to discuss and research with the main creators, and the issue of the female supporting role is decided by Shen Santong alone.

Shen Aojun, the original actor who played Zuo Lan, was removed.

She is one of those Manchu heirs who have returned to the fold and married a foreign diplomat. She also emphasized that her husband's real identity is Manchu, a descendant of Emperor Qianlong's son Yongyan, and his son's name is Aixinjueluo Ruifenghua.

The Zuo Lan role, Shen Santong, is played by Zuo Xiaoqing, and the two have similar temperaments.

7 month 18 day.

Night.

Shen Santong tried his best.

I worked hard and earned more than a hundred yuan.

Yan Ni threw the money at him, wiped the sweat off his face and said, "You don't have to be like this. Yao Chen and I have a good relationship. It's so awkward now."

Shen Santong was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Yan Ni said, "Didn't you block Yao Chen from filming the movie 'The Hidden Man'? She has already been contacted to schedule a date. You are not venting your anger on me, but are embarrassing me instead."

"Yao Chen called me and cried."

Yan Ni knew very well why Yao Chen was afraid.

Shen Santong controls the top resources in the film industry, owns a group company, and has a voice in the media.

Given Shen Santong's status, if word gets out that she is dissatisfied with Yao Chen, her future will be difficult and she will have to rely on Guo Furong's capital.

Shen Santong then understood why Jiang Wei recommended Yan Ni to play the role.

Trying to figure out what he's thinking!

This is most likely what the Deep Sea Culture producer hinted at.

Now, if he shows the slightest bias, he will be favored.

Shen Santong said: "I'm not as boring as you think, I just simply don't like her."

Yan Ni advised: "Just let Yao Chen play the role."

Shen Santong shook his head: "Definitely not her."

Yan Ni: "I won't act. You're suppressing me, right? If this gets out, I won't be able to live like a human being."

Shen Santong: "Think about it yourself, this play is very good."

Yan Ni refused: "Even if the play is good, I won't act in it."

Seeing that she really didn't want to act, Shen Santong said, "Let Yang Yu try."

Yan Ni was speechless: "You hate Yao Chen so much, can you tell me why?"

Shen Santong thought of a reason: "I don't like her, she pulled my trouser leg."

Yan Ni didn't understand for a moment: "What?"

Shen Santong demonstrated it again: "Stretch out your hand, yes, just like that."

Yan Ni said, "No, I won't buy your duck, you can't take the initiative! No way, isn't she married?"

Shen Santong said: "Who knows, anyway, I kind of hate him."

Yan Ni didn't want to talk about Yao Chen behind his back, so he changed the subject and said, "Wu Yusen was really bold in his performance of Red Cliff."

"They just used ridiculous lines as a sign and promoted it in a nonsensical way."

Yan Ni couldn't help but sigh that the little man in front of her was so powerful that he forced Wu Yusen to lose face.

This super-sized production by a famous international director completely abandons blockbuster promotion and takes the nonsensical and funny and shocking route.

It is rare for a great director of his generation to reach this point.

Shen Santong said: "Box office is the only criterion for judging whether a film is successful. It doesn't matter if it can be exchanged for box office. Only if it has box office will people invest in his next film."

In its previous life, "Red Cliff" should have also been a thunder drama, but similar publicity only started in the second part.

As a result, for a period of time, Chinese films were embarrassed to say hello to investors if they did not continue to be vulgar.

Yan Ni asked, "Do you still want to chase and beat me?"

Shen Santong: "Someone is putting pressure on me. The Olympics are coming soon. I can't continue like this."

"And I won completely and cleanly. I kept biting and not letting go, which was not a good look."

Yan Ni asked, "So let him go?"

Shen Santong smiled and said, "Of course not! He didn't even apologize to me publicly, so why should I forgive him?"

"I just can't do it publicly, hehe, but that doesn't mean I can't release a press release in private. I will definitely trample him to death and not give him a chance!"

Yan Ni said: "You are so bad!"

Shen Santong arched his back: "I can be even worse!"
