250 Which actor to choose? So confused!
Song Lu only had a day off at home, and then immediately prepared to launch the promotion of "Inception".
When the one-minute pilot trailer came out, it exploded online, and it simply showed the scenes of several city folding, fighting weightlessness, and street gunfighting. Then, a brief introduction of several actors was added. Of course, a release date must be added: December 14, and will be released simultaneously around the world.
"Looking at Fan Bingbing with two braids, I suddenly felt that she was a pure and cute female student. Tsk tsk, licking the screen." Netizen "Zhao Xing" left a message, and the number of likes was very high.
Well, more than 70% of Fan Bingbing's fans are all physical fans, right? They should be men who are greedy for her body.
"I think Song Lu looks handsome and tasteful when he dresses up. Why do he always dresses up in movies? Is the movies he plays with his tender face not manly enough?" Netizen 'Teacher' left a message.
"In this movie, he is the father of two children and has a wife. After all, he has to be around thirty years old. So, he has to pretend to be mature. By the way, is your little white rabbit selling it?" The netizen replied, "Why did you take the pot away when you break up?"
"Why do you always pay attention to handsome guys and beautiful women? Am I the only one watching the scenes and special effects? It's so awesome. The Hollywood blockbusters are instant visuals, and they have signed up for the Oscars." Netizen's "Hanghu Jishi" left a message.
"Tsk tsk, it's true that Fan Bingbing's face is so exciting." Netizen's 'Tianci Little Red Building' left a message.
"The New Year's Eve that has been waiting for a year has finally arrived. The new Song Lu film that has been waiting for half a year has finally arrived. It's so cool." Netizen's "Female Ticketer of Soy Sauce Party" left a message excitedly.
"Upstairs, why are you a female ticket buyer waiting for Song Lu's new movie? Shouldn't you care about female tickets?" Netizen's 'face blushing' left a message.
...
Anyway, because of the launch of the pioneer trailer for "Inception", there has been a lot of discussions online, and many celebrities have also come to take advantage of the popularity and send their blessings.
In addition to the hot discussions on the Internet in China, there are also hot discussions from abroad.
For example, the Internet in Sakura Country has become popular one after another.
"Song Lujun's new film is about to be released. I heard that Ken Watanabe played the behind-the-scenes boss in it. Song Lujun's film is the pride of Asians and can go international." Netizens' "Scheduling the Agenda" left a message.
"Yes, I heard that Song Lu admires Kitano Takeshi and Miyazaki Hayao. Although I hate Kitano Takeshi's private life, his movies are still good." Netizen 'spexial' left a message.
"Oh, Song Lujun hasn't released a new song for a long time, and his songs are better than his movies." Netizen 'Qingshan Fuxue' left a message.
"I heard that Song Lujun, a Chinese father's Spring Festival Gala program, will there be a performance. Does anyone know where to watch it? Does nhk have a broadcast?" Netizen left a message 'Crack'.
"Yoxi, from the trailer, it seems that she has super powers that can change the space. Well, this actress successfully attracted my attention, which is very consistent with Oriental Beauty." Netizen's "I'm not interested in Rice Cake" left a message.
...
In Kimchi Country, some netizens commented and left comments online.
"Why can the shopkeeper make such a blockbuster? And our movies are always just 'Oba Oppa'?" asked netizen 'Par Bushen'.
"In fact, Song Lu is from kimchi, his father is from Qilu, and many Qilu people are descendants of kimchi..." Netizen's 'Little Giant in Jiangnan District' left a message.
"Is the one upstairs true? Song Lu is from the country of kimchi? Is there any evidence? No wonder he is so talented." The netizen downstairs was immediately excited...
Of course, Song Lu would not follow the discussions of netizens online, he is very busy now.
Since the company moved to Guomao, he has been driving for a long time at work and has been particularly traffic jams.
"Mr. Song, I think you still have to buy a house in the east, so that it is convenient to go to the company." Lu Ren suggested.
He is very comfortable now. He has divided the company's Beijing household registration indicators, and then he bought a 140-square-meter house on the east side. Although he hasn't moved there yet, he is still a winner in life.
Why haven’t he moved there yet? After all, Song Lu still has to live here, and Zeng Jia is here too.
"Well, what you said makes sense. Then go and see two houses for me." Song Lu nodded.
"Two sets?" Lu Ren thought for a while and immediately understood.
"Don't be too far apart, just within ten kilometers." Song Lu ordered.
"Do you want to consider a villa?" Lu Ren asked.
"Well... the key is that no one cleans it, and I don't live in it often. Just buy a large flat floor, or a large flat floor of more than 200 square meters." Song Lu didn't force it to the villa.
But after thinking about it, he decided to buy a villa.
"Let's look at a villa, the environment is better." Song Lu ordered.
"Okay, I understand." Lu Ren received the request.
...
When he went to the company, Song Lu said hello to everyone and went to his large office with 30 square meters. This was too luxurious. It was 30 square meters in the capital, which was hundreds of thousands of yuan. He only built an office alone. The key is that he was often away, which was so wasteful.
Fortunately, he stopped the previous design of 100 square meters, otherwise he would go crazy.
Lu Ren's first thing was to send Song Lu to the managers and supervisors of the two companies that he had arrived at and he had a day to send them to the managers and supervisors of the two companies so that they could come to Song Lu if they had something to do, but they had to make an appointment with Lu Ren.
Song Lu's morning affairs were basically dealing with Xihong City, as well as the promotion of "Inception".
The entire publicity plan is like this, the official publicity starts from December 14:
The Los Angeles premiere, New York promotion for one day, the program recording for half a day, half a day flying to Europe. London one day, Paris one day, and Berlin one day.
One day, one day in Bangkok, one day in Bangkok, one day in Singapore, one day in Tokyo, one day in Seoul, one day in Beijing, one day in Magic City, one day in Pengcheng, one day in Nangang.
So the entire publicity cycle is fifteen days, which is already very long, especially after it is released, it will be promoted for fifteen days.
When we talked with major actors such as Joseph Gordon Levitt, Tom Hardy, Marion Cotillard, Watanabe Ken and other major actors, they had some opinions, but in the end they talked about it.
Of course, when formulating this publicity plan, I also tried to promote oriental actors and Western actors were responsible for western propaganda, but after research and decision, it was better to promote together.
Because audiences in the East hope that Hollywood stars will come to the East, this kind of enthusiasm will be higher.
Oriental actors also want to go to the West to promote, because this can increase their exposure in the West.
In order to make this promotion smooth, Warner also specially booked a private jet to provide convenient transportation for everyone.
Without private jets, the time they spend traveling around the world would be terrible. It would be impossible for cities to reach fifteen days.
Of course, from now until the 14th, Song Lu couldn't just wait like that. He would pull Fan Bingbing to do some publicity in the country.
For example, on the show and accepting interviews, as well as some interviews from paper media.
However, now Fan Bingbing is filming the movie "Contract Lover" in the south, and her schedule is many times more busy than Song Lu.
Not only did she have to film, but she also had to squeeze in time to run advertisements and commercial performances.
There is no way. The real estate company is very popular now. A commercial performance costs tens of millions of dollars. She just needs to stand on the stage and stimulate the tenants to buy.
Song Lu has handled some of the company's matters that have been piled up for a long time in the company these days, and has had several meals with several bigwigs in the industry.
In addition, the first draft of the crew of "The Story of the Officials" was written, and he felt that this movie would establish his position in the directorial circle.
The style is really too obvious and the artistic value is very high.
It just gave him a headache that this actor is difficult to choose. If he asked him to play Zhang Mazi, who could play the Mab Bandit Gang? If the Mab Bandit Gang would be fine, it would be better to choose the actor.
The most important thing is who should Huang Silang and his master Ma Bonde choose?
Let him play against Ge You and Chow Yun-fat?
Of course, this is not impossible. After all, he has a grudge with Huayi, but it has nothing to do with Ge You. Ge You is not a contracted artist of Huayi.
His work unit has always been the Art Troupe of the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, and his agent is himself.
So even if you cooperate with Ge You, there is no contrary to the principle of not cooperating with Huayi personnel, so this is OK.
But Song Lu was a little worried that he would defeat him under the performances of the two actors.
Can he withstand the role of Zhang Mazi? This is something he has no idea about.
Although everyone said that his performance in "Moon" was enough to win a Best Actor's trophy, he himself did not believe it.
Or, go and test it?
It just so happens that he has no chance now, and there are no advertisements. In June this year, he was recognized as a pyramid scheme company for endorsing Yilin Wood Industry Group. He also refunded the advertising endorsement fee to the police. His current image is not very good.
The filming of "Call of Fate" doesn't seem to be very good, and he is not in Feng Dapao's "Assembly".
However, I heard that Feng Dapao originally wanted to film "1942", but because "Assembly" was released during the National Day holiday and "The Sun Rises As Again", the box office was not very ideal and he only got 180 million yuan.
It’s not a loss, but it’s not a profit. Huayi claims to invest 100 million in foreign countries, but it certainly does not have 100 million in foreign countries. However, with a box office of 180 million, Huayi can only return tens of millions of dollars and add copyrights from Shanghai, so there should be no problem in separating the investment.
However, the Wang brothers did not dare to support Feng Dapao in filming the "1942" that he had always wanted to film. They were not easy to make a sound during this period, but only supported Feng Dapao to continue to modify the script of "1942".
Of course, the matter about Huayi has nothing to do with Song Lu. Now he wants to contact Ge You before talking about it to see if he can sign a film contract.
He really couldn't think of who could play the role of Ma Bond in China, and it really requires acting skills.
"Mr. Song, I got the call from Teacher Ge. Why don't I call him first?" Lu Ren asked.
"Well... I'll call myself, it's sincere." Song Lu thought for a while and decided to call himself.
"Oh, okay, then I'll send your phone number to your phone." Lu Ren nodded and left the office. He was not suitable for him here.
Song Lu looked at the phone number in the text message and he was still a little hesitant now, mainly because if he pulled Ge You and Chow Yun-fat over, could he be able to hold on himself?
Song Lu put his cell phone on the table, closed his eyes and nested himself into the boss's chair for thought.
If you don’t choose Ge You or Chow Yun-fat, who will replace him? This is a difficult problem.
There are two choices now, one is to change Ge You and Chow Yun-fat, and the other is to change himself.
Song Lu doesn’t act by himself? But who else can I find to act by himself? I can’t find Jiang Wen, right? Then I’m afraid my position as a director is gone.
Very tangled.
Chapter completed!
