Chapter 145 Change the heroine

As the sun sets and night falls, office workers after a busy day begin to take various means of transportation one after another.

"Boss, you're finally back." In a hot pot restaurant near the film and television city, He Li said inarticulately with her mouth full of food.

Also sitting there were director and starring Wu Jing, and Xiangzi, who flew over from Shenzhen after completing the work of forming a new company.

"Boss, long time no see." Xiangzi poured Zhao Ming twice as much beer.

"Yeah, I've worked hard on you during this time." Zhao Ming nodded and glanced sideways at He Li, "It's not like a certain person who only knows how to wander around and do nothing these days."

"Boss, that's unfair." He Li called out to Qu, "I'm watching other people filming movies in a movie studio, trying to find my feelings."

"I believe you...that's weird. Have you read the script?"

"Not yet, I'll let you know as soon as I receive the news."

Wu Jing nodded and said, "I just got off the plane and the script is still here with me."

"Is the script adaptation going well?"

"It's okay, but considering the box office in North America, I discussed with the screenwriter and increased the heroine's role a lot."

When He Li heard that her role had increased a lot, she happily said: "Really? That's great!"

Zhao Ming sneered, "Why are you so happy? Haven't you heard that you are considering the North American box office? Do you think you look like a European or American?"

"You mean..." He Li had a bad feeling.

"Mr. Zhao guessed it right. I plan to replace the heroine with a Hollywood actress." Wu Jing smiled and revealed the answer.

Snap...

A piece of potato in He Li's mouth fell on the dining table.

"Xiao He, this is our company's first movie, so we must focus on the overall situation." Zhao Ming pretended to be serious and thoughtful, and said slowly.

"Humph, I got it." He Li pouted and began to compete with the mutton slices on the table, pouring it into a large plate at once.

Zhao Ming smiled and then asked Wu Jing, "So, which actress will you invite? Have you decided yet?"

"Not yet. We need to contact her first to see if she is interested and if there is a schedule." Wu Jing shook his head and handed over some information about the actress, "These are the preliminary candidates. Take a look, Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Ming took a stack of information, flipped through it, and said, "By the way, what is the identity of the heroine? Now that the role has been added, the original identity of a tourist seems inappropriate."

"Yes, we changed it to an undercover female reporter. She got some inside information in advance and came to the island to investigate. She happened to be rescued by the protagonist. Later, she secretly followed the protagonist to take a first-hand account of the zombie queen."

"This doesn't sound like something an ordinary reporter can do. It feels more like an agent or an intelligence officer."

"Well, you also discovered it. Yes, this reporter is actually a Russian agent and is very interested in the genetic research data on the island."

"Okay, then..." Zhao Ming suddenly saw a familiar face, which he had seen a few hours ago, "Hey, Scarlett? She is quite suitable to play this role. Marvel's

Black Widow, when everyone sees her, they associate her with the agent."

Wu Jing nodded, "It's really suitable for her to star in the role. I don't know if she is willing to do it. Besides, her salary will probably be very high. I don't know about Mr. Zhao..."

"As for the remuneration, if the star is particularly suitable for the role, we can pay it according to the market price. You don't have to worry about this." Zhao Ming said while imagining watching this movie for Marvel's Natasha in the future.

, what kind of expression would Natasha have.

"Then I'll ask someone to try to contact her agent."

"If you contact someone, the success rate is probably low, right? Why don't we fly over and talk to them directly? I still have some experience in negotiation."

After hearing what Zhao Ming said, He Li rolled her eyes and muttered secretly, "Huh, bragging again, you're not planning to use your super powers to cheat."

"Ahem, Comrade Xiao He, what are you mumbling over there alone, huh?" Zhao Ming glared at He Li.

"No...nothing."

"Boss, what about my role? Is there any change?" Xiangzi heard that He Li was out. Although she knew that her role was still there, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"You have to ask Director Wu about this, but I guess there won't be much change, right Director Wu?"

Wu Jing nodded and said: "Yes, the role of the Zombie Queen has not changed much. You performed the role very well, so there is no need to change the character."

"That's great." Xiangzi breathed a sigh of relief.

After eating and drinking, Wu Jing gave the script to Zhao Ming and Xiangzi, and then found someone to contact Hollywood in advance. He Li was responsible for booking air tickets and preparing to head to the nearest airport to fly directly to Hollywood after a night's rest.

After more than ten hours of boring flight, the group finally arrived in Hollywood and contacted Scarlett's agent.

In a small conference room, both parties sat down, and Zhao Ming met "Natasha" in the real world. Of course, she was dressed more casually now and didn't put on too much makeup. At first glance, she couldn't tell that she was the famous one.

"Black Widow".

After a brief introduction by both parties, we started to get down to business.

Wu Jing handed over the script and said to Scarlett: "This is a commercial movie we are planning to shoot. It focuses on special effects. The heroine in it wants to ask you to star. This is the script."

Scarlett took the script and read it while saying: "I have read the electronic version of the script and I think the character is pretty good, but what is the latest MR technology you are talking about?"

"Mr. Zhao, could you please introduce me?" Wu Jing turned to Zhao Ming and said.

"Okay." Zhao Ming nodded, "I believe you know better than us about the current production process of special effects movies, so I won't go into more details. Our MR technology is to use computers in post-production during the filming process.

Various special effects are presented directly, seamlessly integrated with the actors' performances, and shot in one go, without the need for post-processing."

"Presented on... the screen?" Scarlett didn't understand.

"No, it is presented in a three-dimensional space, right next to the actor. You may not be able to imagine it when I say this. I can demonstrate it to you later. We have brought the equipment."

"That's great, what venue do you need?"

Zhao Ming looked around and said, "If it's just a demonstration, this is fine."

After connecting the equipment, Zhao Ming said to Scarlett: "Do you like dinosaurs?"

"What?" Scarlett didn't react for a moment.

"Then let's bring in the audience's favorite Tyrannosaurus Rex." Zhao Ming said, typing on the computer for a while, and a mini version of the Tyrannosaurus Rex appeared on the conference table.

"Oh my God!" Looking at this lifelike dinosaur, Scarlett's eyes widened.

hold head high--

The little Tyrannosaurus Rex raised its head and roared, scaring Scarlett so much that she leaned back.

"Haha, don't be afraid. This is fake. It's just a projection and does not have the ability to attack."

"Then...can I touch it?"

"Well... you can reach out, but you can't touch anything. There's only air."

"Oh, that's it. By the way, can I take a photo?"
