Chapter 201 "Bloody Romance" (Asking for Monthly Votes)

This group of people just chatted and drank, and only started to talk about business when they were almost drunk.

"Lao Yang (Du Liang) and I are making a TV series "Blood Romance", and we are still missing a male lead..." Teng Wenji looked at Hao Yun, obviously evaluating.

In his opinion, Hao Yun was a little too handsome.

Of course, this is not a big problem, TV series are to be commercialized.

The more handsome the male lead is, the easier it is to attract people to watch.

The original character setting of the story is not so important.

From his position as a director, whether it is casting or changing the script, it is all for selling.

In addition, he also watched some clips of Hao Yun's works provided by his son. This kid seems to have a kind of ability.

That is to make people ignore his appearance and easily see the character itself. He is not the kind of actor who looks like himself in any role.

One person has many sides.

In layman's terms, he has a movie face.

He was born to eat this bowl of rice.

"How could you lack a male lead." Jiang Wen expressed disbelief.

He knew the script of Bloody Romance. The investor was Runya Film and Television, and behind Runya Film and Television was Hairun.

Hairun was from Haiyan, and this company was not short of the leading male role.

Those who understand will understand.

"The leading male role given by the investor is Liu Ye, and I don't think he is suitable." Du Liang was very straightforward.

Perhaps this is the literati's spirit.

And the capital of his willfulness was that Hairun wanted to shoot his "Bright Sword".

In addition, Teng Wenji's modification of the script made the relationship between the director and the screenwriter very tense, so he planned to make some concessions on the leading male role.

Du Liang got the right to choose the leading male role.

However, after analyzing a large number of new generation actors, he found that Liu Ye, who he looked down on, might even be the best among them.

Others were even less suitable for the role of Zhong Yuemin.

At this time, Teng Huatao, who participated in the project and learned from his father, proposed a candidate.

It was Hao Yun, who was hotly discussed in the circle.

The reason why Hao Yun entered the sight of the high-end circle was naturally because of Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen is a legendary figure. He has almost become the ultimate actor. He is currently the highest paid male actor in China, even higher than Chen Daoming.

20 years ago, the crew of "The Last Emperor" found him and asked him to play Puyi.

But Jiang Wen, who signed the contract, was replaced by Chen Daoming.

If nothing else, Jiang Wen's appearance is not pleasing.

Who could have thought that 20 years later, his salary would be higher than Chen Daoming, and his "side job" as a director would be thriving.

The big guys like Jiang Wen.

And Jiang Wen obviously looks like he is training a successor. Perhaps he has already made a will and is ready to let Hao Yun inherit the debts he borrowed for Liu Xiaoqing.

Because of the conflict with Teng Wenji, Du Liang finds it difficult to trust Master Teng.

But he still paid attention to Hao Yun and watched his previous works.

This is amazing.

Hao Yun has a variety of styles. He can play a fool, a silver thief, an undercover, a Taoist priest, a vampire, and it doesn't feel out of place at all.

This is very important. When Blood Romance began, Zhong Yuemin was only sixteen or seventeen years old. By the end of the story, he was already middle-aged. He had experienced too many things in the process. If the actor's performance was not diverse and was the same from beginning to end, it would really ruin the role.

Du Liang also watched the DVD of The Thousand Machines and found that Hao Yun was very good at fighting.

He wrote that Zhong Yuemin was originally a good Sanda fighter.

But Liu Ye didn't know how to fight at all. He couldn't play that kind of masculinity, which deviated from the beautiful things that Du Liang gave to the character when he created this image.

It's not that Liu Ye is not good, but that he is not suitable at all.

If he is not suitable, why not find a suitable one?

Zhong Yuemin is like Du Liang's son. He is willing to spend more time and energy to find him.

This is also the biggest disagreement between Du Liang and the director and investors.

Now, Du Liang and Teng Wenji followed Teng Huatao to see Hao Yun, just to make the final confirmation.

"Uncle Jiang, am I better than Liu Ye?" Hao Yun was shocked.

Jiang Wen held his forehead. This kid's brain circuit, the pie fell on his head, he was still calculating the acceleration of gravity.

"It can't be said that he is better than Liu Ye, the main thing is that he is more suitable for the role than Liu Ye."

Du Liang is still very kind. He is afraid that if this matter gets out today, Liu Ye will be ridiculed by the crowd.

"The son of the compound, he..." Teng Wenji originally wanted to say that Hao Yun is not from the capital, but when he saw Jiang Wen, there was no need to say it.

The concept of the compound has been played out by Jiang Wen and his group.

Jiang Wen made the amazing masterpiece "Sunny Days", and Du Liang hadn't written "Blood Romance" at that time.

Du Liang himself admitted that he was influenced by "Sunny Days".

What Teng Wenji and Du Liang feared most was that after the TV series was filmed, it would be called the TV version of "Sunny Days", which was simply a shame for them.

"The No. 1 male lead, right? When will the TV series be filmed?" Hao Yun didn't read the script, but he knew that he had to have a No. 1 male lead work.

He hadn't read Du Liang's "Bright Sword", but it was in Jiang Wen's bookshelf.

Even Jiang Wen bought it to read, so how bad could his other work "Blood Romance" be?

Moreover, this project was completed under the nose of Uncle Jiang, so there were fewer messy things.

Whether it was Du Liang, Teng Wenji, or Hai Yan behind him.

No one would think that Jiang Wen was easy to bully.

The capital is very united, and no one will bully Hao Yun under Jiang Wen's nose.

"The shooting is tentatively scheduled for the end of January. If you shoot, it will be completed in March or April, but you'd better prepare for the role early."

If it's Hao Yun, Teng Wenji will have less trouble.

Jiang Wen and Hai Yan are from a small circle, and they are all Wang Shuo's best friends.

Wang Shuo originally promoted his girlfriend Xu Jinglei and asked her to star in the movie "A Romantic Affair". The screenwriter of this movie is Hai Yan, and the partner of Xu Jinglei is Jiang Wen's... younger brother Jiang Wu.

"Here, you can take a look, but don't spread it, because it hasn't been officially published yet."

Du Liang took out a book from his bag and handed it to Hao Yun.

"Thank you, Uncle Yang." Hao Yun took the book, which means he took the role.

The schedule is not a problem. He will go to Hong Kong in October to shoot "New Police Story", which will be finished in more than a month. After returning, he will shoot "Heart Labyrinth", and then participate in this "Blood Romance".

"Haiyan drama + Zhao Baogang = star" is almost the strongest formula for making stars in film and television dramas.

"A Romantic Affair" made Xu Jinglei famous.

"Never Forget" made Lu Yi and Yuan Li famous.

"Jade Guanyin" made Sun Li and Tong Dawei famous.

Although the director is not Zhao Baogang and the screenwriter is not Haiyan, Teng Wenji, as a powerful director among the four generations of directors, will definitely not be much worse than Zhao Baogang.

"The leading actress is Sun Li." Teng Huatao added on the side.

Good guy, then this drama is really a top-notch lineup.

The salary is naturally not suitable for such a high-end occasion, and it can be discussed afterwards.

However...

"Brother Teng, how much is the salary for the leading actor?"

With Jiang Wen around, the style is unlikely to be very suitable, so he asked directly.
