Chapter 527: Money is very realistic(2/2)
Although they didn't make it clear, it's impossible for Wu Di not to guess that Zhang was counting on the investment of his mother, Ms. Lan, in this movie!
Others are the most stubborn investors. They can insert their own sons into movies, directly become the protagonists, and have no problem with being airborne.
Or maybe it was originally a supporting role, but it was because there was a bigger actor blocking the way, so he could only be relegated to a supporting role.
But that's only temporary. In the end, because of the big investment, we can add drama all the way to the point where we become the protagonist.
These are routine operations in the film and television industry, and there is nothing shameful about them.
However, now Wu Di actually wants to do the opposite.
Not only did he not ask for additional roles, but he also actively expressed his willingness to play a small supporting role with a small role. What kind of spirit is this?
This is too strange!
"Xiao Wu, are you serious?"
"Why are you doing this?"
"Frankly speaking, Ms. Lan has agreed to invest in this movie. As her son, you deserve a role. Moreover, I am also very optimistic about you and will never treat you badly."
"Although I can't lead the lead, there is still no problem with being an ordinary leading actor. The roles are enough and the highlights of the role are sufficient. Why do you want to decline?"
"Besides, you haven't even read the script yet!"
Wu Dimo: Yes!
I really want to read the script, but you won't let me read it.
Besides, if I hadn't mentioned this issue, you wouldn't have pulled out Ms. Lan. It can be seen that my fanning was effective.
"Mr. Zhang, you misunderstood."
"I'm not refusing, I'm just saying that if there are some protagonists who don't have too many roles, you can leave them to me. As for me, I will learn while acting."
"The most important thing is that as a newcomer, I cannot ruin your brand, Mr. Zhang. I am still a newcomer and cannot take on big responsibilities."
Lao Zhang frowned, doesn't this still mean he wants to star?
I made a mistake and almost got caught by this guy.
"Don't worry about this."
"The setting I gave you is for you to play the third or fourth male role. That's for sure. However, it will take some time to decide which one you will play. When I show you the script, we will discuss it together.
."
"Can you also show me the script?"
"Isn't that a trade secret?"
"After all, I'm not an official invitee."
Lao Zhang waved his hand: "Why don't you count?"
"Now I am officially inviting you to join the group!"
"Xiao Wu, I think you newcomers sometimes have a lot of misunderstandings, which are ideological." Lao Zhang poked his temple and said: "Some newcomers have no respect for movies and TV shows.
It’s just to make money, and the attitude is extremely inappropriate, which is of course wrong.”
"With the mentality of making money and no effort at all, it is impossible to perform a good work. However, like you, if you regard movies as too important and sacred, there is no need for them."
"To put it bluntly, movies are just a form of storytelling. There is nothing special about it. As long as you put your heart into it and have a little bit of talent, it won't be too bad."
"I've also seen the clips for the movie about skin-changing. I think your performance in it was pretty good, at least much better than your two co-stars."
"They have much more acting experience than you, but they only act like that, why do you feel inferior?"
Two little flowers: Ahem!
Is this considered a pushover?
"Perhaps, you will be the first male newcomer I have promoted in several years!"
Male...newcomer!
Speaking of this, Wu Di actually had some ideas.
Lao Zhang is a good director and a senior director. This year, he entered the film industry and officially became a director for 20 years!
In the past twenty years, he has continued to produce excellent works and received rave reviews.
The quality of Lao Zhang's movies is so high and the audience is so wide, it will naturally drive the popularity of the actors who play his movies to rise.
Over the years, there have been many outstanding actors who have appeared in Lao Zhang's films, and they all have one thing in common.
That is... they are all women.
Yes!
Although a movie is formed, it naturally needs male actors as well as female actors. Moreover, Lao Zhang's movies often have a relatively macro narrative, and you cannot say that it is a purely female movie.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, it is amazing that the big stars who came out of Lao Zhang's movies are all women.
As for those male actors whose acting skills are not bad, their status in the industry before they acted in Lao Zhang's movie basically didn't change after they acted.
The resume of these films by Lao Zhang does not give these actors much extra points. Even if they become famous later, Lao Zhang's films will only become a part of enriching their acting experience.
However, now Lao Zhang claims in front of Wu Di that in this new work, he will make Wu Di, a male actor, famous.
This involves some metaphysical theorems.
For example, is it the stronger theorem that Lao Zhang cannot be a popular actor, or is it that Wu Di's aura of time travel is stronger?
In short, Wu Di cannot be asked to change gender just to become popular.
"Of course I will work hard, and I would like to thank Mr. Zhang for giving me the opportunity."
"Then this matter is settled. As for Ms. Lan, Ms. Lan is a very mature businessman. It is up to her to decide whether to invest and how much to invest. It is not my place to interfere."
"But Mr. Zhang, you can rest assured."
"Hasn't Ms. Lan already made a promise? She has the final say, and I don't care. She has already said it, so you can start making preparations."
"The specific investment time and amount need to be communicated to you in detail. However, if it is not convenient for you to contact her, I can also do it for you."
"That's the best. In fact, strictly speaking, this is our joint work. Making this movie good is our common pursuit, right?"
"So, if you have the strength, do your best. I also attach great importance to it this time. I must make this movie well. This is also my first step into commercial films. I must do it well."
