Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 474 Contract

Change of role!

Li Luo was a little slow to react.

You can take a closer look.

It was clearly himself that was reflected in Yu Feihong's eyes.

If I'm not mistaken, the character that was replaced should, maybe, possibly be.
"I?"

Holding the sofa with one hand, Li Luo pointed at his nose blankly.

"Ok!"

Yu Feihong nodded.

"you"

With his cheek twitching slightly, Li Luo asked curiously, "Is your butt itchy?"

Weird!

He actually dared to change his role.

While he was feeling at a loss whether to laugh or cry, his hands were restless.

"Don't hit people!"

Yu Feihong quickly shook her head and put her arm around Li Luo's neck in a coquettish manner: "Don't keep thinking about touching me, no! Don't touch me there, I'm talking to you about something serious!!!"

Sense a change happening somewhere.

She was so scared that she quickly issued a warning.

Although she is not as adorable as Xu Qing, Sister Feihong is still quite lethal when she acts coquettishly.

"reason?"

Li Luo barely suppressed his impulse.

"Many reasons."

Yu Feihong looked very serious and said word by word: "You have too many things to do and are too busy. I plan to spend time polishing this movie. You can't spare that much time."

"And I'm really, really unsure. You're developing very well right now."

"Very, very good."

"If the box office fails, it will have a huge impact on you!"

"real."

"This movie doesn't have strong commercial properties. I don't want you to experience Waterloo here. It's unfair, not only to you, but also to me. You should think about the pressure I'm under."

"The box office won't be good then."

"Guess who will be the first to bear the brunt of everyone's ridicule?"

"Xiao Luo."

"Be good, let's not act anymore, okay?"

By presenting facts, reasoning, and complaining, Li Luo was successfully silenced.

The suffering that Yu Feihong complained about can be said to be half true and half false.

She certainly doesn't care what others think.

But the pressure.

But it is real.

From Flashpoint, Crazy Stone to Fury, every movie Li Luo has starred in is a box office hit. Having him as the leading actor can certainly boost the box office, but heavy pressure also comes with it.

Others Turin.

Why doesn’t it work for you?

One is a box office magic potion, the other is a new director.

Who is responsible?

This is simply a no-brainer.

Especially since it was Yu Feihong's first time directing a big screen work, there were a lot of things to do in the crew and she was already under all kinds of pressure. She just wanted to calm down and make the movie well.

Instead of bearing heavy box office pressure for no reason because of Li Luo's existence.

Even though it already existed.

But because of Li Luo, the pressure was skyrocketing.

How much I wanted him to perform in the beginning, how much I don't want him to join the crew now, my thoughts have changed 180 degrees.

"and."

After gritting her teeth, she said coyly, "I have already found an actor to replace you. The contract has been signed. If you insist on starring in the role, I will lose a large sum of liquidated damages."

"It's not easy for people to make a little money, and you don't want to see me lose money, right?"

To emphasize the seriousness of the matter.

Yu Feihong deliberately sang high notes in large characters.

But under Li Luo's contemptuous gaze, she was too embarrassed to even smile.

Nowadays, the pay for mainland actors to make movies is not as good as that for TV dramas. Even with Fan Bingbing's status, his pay for "Painted Skin" was only a few hundred thousand yuan, far less than that for TV dramas.

Otherwise, Zhang Ziyi would not have been so envious of the TV drama pay and wanted to take on Zhang Zhong's "Swordsman".

The film market is just starting to gain momentum.

Among the actors in mainland China, only a few can carry the box office.

Li Luo really didn't believe that the penalty for breach of contract for the actors hired by Yu Feihong could be that high.

"Who?"

After thinking for a while, he asked about the situation.

"Duan Yihong."

Yu Feihong gave the answer and quickly explained: "I know that his box office appeal is not as good as yours, and his looks are also lacking, but I auditioned and the actor's acting skills are very good."

"Ah."

"He is from the National Repertory Theatre and played a role I really liked in Summer Palace. I think he can play this kind of delicate emotion very well."

Hear this.

Li Luo slowly turned around and sat up.

Duan Yihong's acting skills are indeed impeccable. If he acts seriously, he will definitely play the role well.

Since Yu Feihong has made up her mind, it would be a waste of time to say more.

"How about it?"

Yu Feihong stood up as well.

Grab his arm and rock him gently back and forth.

She has always been a person with her own opinions, but the person she has to deal with now is Li Luo, and she is afraid of upsetting her lover, so Fairy Jinghong can only act coquettishly and cautiously.

"Ah."

Li Luo snorted and closed his eyes.

"Don't be angry!"

Yu Feihong immediately smiled and gave him a kiss on the face: "You don't want me to get too exhausted from the photo shoot, right? Don't worry, I will definitely do a good job of risk control."

Seeing that Li Luo didn't say anything.

She rolled her eyes and whispered in his ear, "Okay, I promise I won't have any intimate scenes with him."

"Hey~"

Li Luo's eyes widened instantly, and he pulled Yu Feihong down onto his thighs: "You still want to act out a love scene, right? This is outrageous!"

"Crack~~~"

The palm fell back, hitting the buttocks so hard that they trembled.

"pain!!!"

Yu Feihong grunted and tried to struggle to get up, but she was no match for Li Luo's strength. She could only twist her waist desperately amid the continuous slaps until she dared not resist anymore.

Until the body softens.

Until the big watery eyes raised.

Li Luo has performed in many plays.

But getting fired is still rare.

It took Yu Feihong more than an hour to suppress his anger.

This time she came here to clarify things and to say goodbye to Fairy Jinghong.

After today.

As the producer, director, screenwriter, and leading actress, she was about to officially join the crew and start all the work. Li Luo spent more than half an hour instructing on various matters and sharing all his experiences.

Don’t worry about how much the other party can absorb.

When dealing with crew work, at least you know what things you must keep a close eye on.

It's close to noon.

He sent Yu Feihong, who was reluctant to leave, to the company gate.

Watch the other vehicle go away.

Li Luo stood there for a while, not knowing what to feel. He quickly turned around and strode into the company. No matter how the movie did, he would try his best to help promote it.

Of course, I felt a little relieved.

to be frank.

He was somewhat reluctant to shave half of his head bald.

come back to the office.

Li Luo quickly grabbed the keyboard and started typing away. No matter what, the work that needed to be done could not be delayed.

"Lost on Journey"

The first act:
Hotel box, day scene, interior scene.

Li Chenggong sat at the round table, wearing a suit, slicked back hair and glasses.

Opposite him sat three employees.

The four of them looked at each other.

Li Chenggong cut off a piece of steak and put it into his mouth calmly: "Knowing you makes me believe that everything is arranged by fate. Maybe God has already destined it and is leading us to walk together."

"What I want to say now is, what sin did I commit in my previous life?"

The picture froze on Li Chenggong's face.

Subtitles:
Name: Li Chenggong, Nickname: Grey Wolf, Occupation: CEO of a cultural company.

Act Two:
Dairy farm office, day view, interior scene.

Niu Geng, wearing a milking uniform, sat on an old chair, staring blankly at the small TV, which was reporting the news that tickets were hard to get during the Spring Festival travel rush.

Act Three:
Cowshed, day scene, outdoor scene.

Niu Geng and several of his co-workers were sitting on a haystack outside the cowshed, with a herd of cattle walking back and forth behind them.

The illiterate Niu Geng looked at the bill in his hand and muttered in confusion: "What to Changsha, what, what does it mean, Jia what, what what what, what is written???"

The keyboard keeps tapping.

Vivid scenes appeared in the document on the computer screen. Thinking of those scenes in the past, Li Luo couldn't help laughing.

In his opinion, this is a very good road movie.

The box office seems to be pretty good.

It's considered a dark horse.

Promote it well, this movie deserves better.

There are endless golden sentences and famous scenes.

Putting all these aside, Li Luo prefers the down-to-earth atmosphere presented in "Lost on Journey". In this movie, one can see all kinds of people from all walks of life.

Everything is alive.

Most of the characters are also able to stand out.

The various dramatic conflicts are of course a bit too coincidental, but one can feel the breath of life in it, which is what he likes most about Lost on Journey.

After all.

It's just down to earth.

In the future, all kinds of film and television works will have no roots, and they will drift without boundaries. People who have just started working in Beijing can live in a duplex apartment with the most exquisite scenery and a cup of cappuccino every morning.

It is easy and pleasant to take a taxi to work, and you can go to nightclubs, bars, and karaoke at night.

Live a life of feasting and revelry.

Of course Li Luo knew why it was shot like this.

save money!

not kidding.

Big apartments, small villas, brand new sets and those gorgeous clothes are cheaper to shoot than tube-shaped buildings, small studios and old clothes.

For cost considerations.

There's nothing to say about doing this.

But many crews don’t really need that little bit of production funding to make the film look old.

The bigger reason is to muddle things.

You fool me, I fool you, and together we fool the audience.

In fact, Li Luo has no interest in focusing on poverty and suffering, but he doesn't want to see film and television works that even lose focus on ordinary people!

Time passes as I type on the keyboard.

I was too lazy to go out for lunch, so I asked Zhao Xuejing to help me pack it up.

Busy until the afternoon.

There was a knock on the office door and high heels approached quickly.

The chair moved, Lin Yue moved her fat hips to sit down opposite, and swiftly opened the cowhide bag in her hand: "You are right, Director Zheng chose the second plan we proposed."

"Oh?"

Letting go of the keyboard, Li Luo took the information with interest.

Since the two sides had no disagreement on the most critical issue, he decisively re-employed the original director of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" after several communications.

Film effect.

Actually, don’t worry too much.

Being set in the Qing Dynasty is not the key to the success of this drama at all.

The "political intrigue" drama "Nirvana in Fire" proves this point.

As long as there is a wonderful script, a capable director to control the scene, and finally an excellent team in front of and behind the scenes, I believe that this life's "The Legend of Zhen Huan" will be able to burst out with no less charm than the previous life.

Since we have decided to cooperate.

Then we have to discuss the corresponding conditions.

Having just finished filming the hit drama Golden Wedding, Zheng Xiaolong obviously cannot be dismissed easily.

For this purpose, Xinghuo Film and Television has put forward three plans.

the first.

Just take the director's fee.

Director's fee plus corresponding dividends.

third.

Pure dividends.

Zheng Xiaolong can choose from three options with different conditions.

The first option obviously pays the most money, but Li Luo is sure that Zheng Xiaolong will not choose it. The last option is too risky. If it cannot be sold at a good price, it will be a waste of time.

As long as you are not a heavy gambler.

Second option.

It can only be an inevitable choice.

Partial cash income plus a small amount of dividends were enough to make Zheng Xiaolong satisfied.

After all, the producers are not here to do charity. They bear the greatest risk and of course they have to earn the greatest possible profit.

As the contract continues to be read.

Various details emerged.

Where there are benefits, there are responsibilities.

The money cannot be taken for free. The behind-the-scenes production team must be formed by Zheng Xiaolong. This is the director's job and part of his value.

Experienced directors are often able to use their personal connections to gather a group of powerful behind-the-scenes staff.

That's exactly what Chen Jiashang is like.

The behind-the-scenes production team of the movie "Painted Skin" is very powerful.

To have a good team.

Of course Li Luo was happy.

But I am also a little unhappy because the distinction between professionals and non-professionals is very obvious. Of course, there are top teams in Hollywood, and those people often need to be recruited through connections.

But as long as you have money.

Even if the director is not a big name in the industry, he can still recruit a professional work team through the corresponding guild.

It can’t be said to be very good, but it can guarantee basic professional quality.

This reduces the risk of failure of the entire project.

in this regard.

The domestic entertainment industry is lagging behind by more than one step.

Knocked the contract.

Li Luo continued to flip through the pages.

The behind-the-scenes team is one aspect, and the corresponding scope of authority is also clarified one by one.

For example, casting.

Opinions can be fully respected.

But the final decision-making power will definitely not be given!

Of course, Li Luo would not rudely interfere with Zheng Xiaolong's thinking. After all, he wanted others to help him make money. He would not be stupid enough to spend a lot of money to invite people back and then interfere at every turn.

However, the power to make the final decision must still be firmly in your own hands.

To put it bluntly.

In everything, we have to distinguish between the big and small kings.

Zheng Xiaolong's wife got her wish and became one of the screenwriters. Next, she started to adapt the novel into a TV script.

The workload is not small.

Some unnecessary branches need to be cut off and many character relationships need to be adjusted.

It will take at least two or three months to finish this polishing.

The two discuss room.

Things were communicated quickly and clearly.

Let’s not worry about the investment funds for now. The most important thing is to get the script out, and then we can establish a budget plan based on all the needs.

"what are you doing?"

Putting the contract back into the file bag, Lin Yue looked curiously at the boss who was moving the keyboard again.

"write script."

Li Luo casually tapped on the keyboard and said with a smile: "I felt a little emotional when I went back for the New Year this time. I also heard a lot of joy, anger, sorrow and happiness. I figured out a story when I was filming in America."

"Ok?"

Lin Yue immediately became interested.

This boss of mine is not just an actor, he also produced such a best-selling script as "Raging Fire".

Now that there is another story, it is impossible not to be interested.

Drag the chair.

Manager Lin came over and sat down quietly beside Li Luo.

When Niu Geng asked the teller whether the plane ticket was a standing or seated ticket, she grinned and chuckled. She didn't react much to the milk drinking segment. This segment mainly relied on performance and the appeal of the picture to influence the audience.

She nearly spit out the milk but managed to swallow it down, which made her make a sound of disgust.

I felt depressed when I came to Niu Geng.

Shouting to the waiter to open the window for some fresh air.

The girl burst out laughing.

"Hahaha."

Lin Yue bumped his shoulder and asked with a smile: "I think you didn't encounter this kind of thing when you went home. I remember I bought you a first-class ticket."

“Artistic creation.”

Glancing at Manager Lin's shaking chest, Li Luo muttered, "Go and do your own thing. Don't bother me here. How can I stay focused when you're swaying like that?"

"Hey~"

Lin Yue twisted his waist hard, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "You are just imagining things, but you have to blame me!"

The chair was moved away.

She stood up unhappily.

But the next moment, he quickly crawled under the large desk.

"Shu~"

The sound of zippers zipping echoed quietly in the huge office. The crisp typing sound of the keyboard stopped abruptly, and then quickly resumed, gradually increasing in speed.

Take a few days.

Li Luo wrote a rough outline of the script for "Lost on Journey".

Out of caution, only the first version of the script has been worked on for now, and many details have not been filled in. After all, it would be too incredible to come up with an extremely perfect script right from the start.

In fact, all film and television scripts are polished over and over again.

write script.

Only takes up part of the time.

He spent most of his time in the editing room, working day and night on the post-editing of "Fall in Love with You".

But he was soon pulled out of the editing room by Lin Yue.

Work is important.

Communication with peers is also essential.

Especially for things that you have promised, you must do them well.

March 7th.

Around five in the afternoon, all kinds of business vehicles arrived at Beijing's Poly Theatre one after another, and among them were reporters from various entertainment media, who quickly gathered on the red carpet, each carrying their own cameras.

The second entertainment festival jointly produced by Guangxian Media and Shancheng TV and sponsored by Jeanswest.

Coming soon in theaters.

Due to the strong influence of Guangxian Media.

It is said that many big names will be gathered tonight, so the reporters are quite excited. Of course, they can't help but gossip about the photo incident that shocked the entertainment industry some time ago.

this incident.

The incident ended with the person involved holding a press conference announcing his indefinite withdrawal from the entertainment industry.

It makes people feel sad.

On the surface.

Only a few people involved were affected.

But secretly, no one knows how many people's money, career, and future were affected, and no one knows how many people hated him to the core. Reporters have been speculating on how much he has to pay to get away with it unscathed.

Some times.

Just like retiring from the golden basin.

If you don't resolve the grudges, you can't leave the world of martial arts just because you want to.

The reporters were talking.

The fans who gradually gathered didn't care about so many things. They were just happy to see the stars later. They kept waving the cheering cards in their hands, and the noisy noise quickly made the red carpet scene lively.

The other side.

A shiny black full-size SUV roared into the parking lot.

Under the guidance of the staff, I came to the corresponding parking space with exhaust gas coming out and parked.

Even if there are many big names gathered tonight.

Such a domineering vehicle still attracted a lot of attention.

Such a flashy car has never been the choice of people in the circle. Everyone is used to getting a nanny car to keep a low profile. Even if they have money, they dare not show it off for fear of being targeted by someone.

Don't know who it is.

His style of doing things is so ostentatious.

But as the car door opened, I saw the spirited young man jumping out of the car.

Many people burst into laughter.

This is clumsy.

It makes no difference whether the other party hides or not.

The reputation of the wealthy man is now known to everyone. The movies he invested in have become hits one after another, with box office revenues being incredibly high.

Said he had no money.

Someone has to believe it.

He earned all the money through his own real ability, and no one was jealous of him.

The most important thing is that this guy is rich and kind.

Some time ago, there was news in the newspapers that he donated millions to his hometown to build bridges, roads and schools. In order to criticize his extravagant private life, the media in Guizhou were the first to disagree.

"Brother Luo!"

As soon as Li Luo stood firm, he heard a surprised shout from the side.

The exquisite makeup and the neat coat make this beautiful woman, who already has the temperament of a young lady, even more elegant and graceful.

"Good evening, Luo."

"Brother Luo."

Led by Jiang Qinqin, several people nearby subconsciously called out the name Luo Ge. Although they felt a little uncomfortable, they did not stumble at all. In the circle, age has never been the key to success.

When should you show off your seniority and when should you not.

Everyone knows the whole thing.

"Depend on!"

Li Luo couldn't help but swear, and walked up to them quickly with his security guards and assistants: "You guys are teasing me, right? Are you afraid that I will be scolded by the teacher when I return to school?"

"Hahaha."

"Teacher Huo can't bear to scold you."

The few people who greeted me came over quickly with a smile.

"Hello, Senior Sister Jiang."

Li Luo opened his arms and gave a big hug to Jiang Qinqin, who had a strong young lady's temperament.

Long time no see.

This Miss Mu Nianci has become much plumper.

Get in better shape!

"Hey~"

When he pressed her chest with his hidden strength, Jiang Qinqin smiled happily but quickly rolled her eyes at him.

"Hello, Senior Zhao."

Looking at the big-eyed senior sister, Li Luo smiled and stretched out his hand.

"how?"

Zhao Wei opened her arms, tilted her head and asked, "Don't I deserve a hug?"

lol.

Li Luo took advantage of the situation and made a false move.

"Senior Chen."

Finally, they shook hands with Chen Kun who greeted them with a smile, and everyone greeted each other and walked towards the elevator.

Although the youngest.

But Li Luo walked to the middle position naturally.

The rest.

There is no dissatisfaction either.

"Yo~~~"

They had only taken a few steps when the teasing voice rang out again: "What a great momentum! With such a large group of people, if you didn't know, you would think that you guys at Beijing Film Academy had reserved the entire theater tonight!"

Next to the elevator.

A middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit and with a gray beard glanced over.

He put on an indignant look.

But he forgot.

There was a person from Beijing Film Academy standing next to me.

"do you have any opinion?"

Jiang Wenli stretched out her hand like lightning and pretended to twist Zhang Guoli's arm. If Deng Jie hadn't been standing next to them, she would have grabbed his ear.

"Hello, Senior!!!"

A few people from the Beijing Film Academy who were walking over couldn't help laughing, but greetings rang out loudly.
