When Ning Hao told the truth, the other three people at the dinner table seemed to be struck by lightning at the same moment. All three of them had shock and disbelief on their faces, as if they had heard the most unreal words in the world.
The starting point of the movie "Flying Tigers" is higher than that of all Chinese commercial movies so far. The biggest wish of all actors who dream of this movie is to find a relatively important role in this movie. , but very few people really dare to hope for the most critical and important role, and the same is true for Liu Ye. However, this great luck really came suddenly and inadvertently, catching him off guard. .
Wang Lan was also extremely shocked. No one knew Liu Ye's situation better than him. Liu Ye's parents were workers in the film and television industry, but they were both filmmakers of the older generation, so in today's entertainment-oriented film and television industry, in fact Without much energy and connections, it is not easy for him to survive in the industry until today. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, great luck will fall on him again. The "Flying Tigers" The movie will not only bring him to the level of a top actor in the country, but also help him carve out a small world of his own in Hollywood. This is definitely a great opportunity to leapfrog.
Xie Yu was also completely confused. Although she hoped that her boyfriend would one day turn into a fish and become a dragon, she did not expect that this day would come so quickly and so directly. She was also in the entertainment industry and knew the opportunities very well. importance. Leaving "Happy Camp" caused her popularity to decline sharply and her future to be bleak. Therefore, she who had been waiting for the opportunity became more aware of how valuable Liu Ye's opportunity was.
If the level of "top domestic actors" is compared to the pinnacle of the industry, then countless filmmakers' lifelong dream is to climb to this peak, and Liu Ye hasn't even climbed halfway up the mountain. Suddenly, A helicopter came, and the people inside said to Liu Ye, who was struggling to climb: "Come up, I can take you to the top of the mountain..."
What good luck! Even if he is his girlfriend, he is even a little jealous in his heart. If he had such an opportunity, he would be able to achieve success in one step, right
The moment her thoughts flashed out, Xie Yu immediately thought of Chen Wan. She thought about how this girl who had just graduated from college was now a top host in the country. Not only did she have countless fans in "Happy Camp", but she also hosted She has participated in the extremely popular talent show "Super Girl". Now she is an absolute pillar of Hunan Satellite TV and the most popular female host in the country. The reason why she has such an excellent opportunity is not because of Li Mu. Help? Now, he has become Liu Ye's noble man...
The emotional Liu Ye didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he burst into tears unconsciously. He looked at Ning Hao and asked the biggest question in his heart: "Brother Hao, why did you let me play the leading role in this drama? My experience In this industry, there is no way to rank up. Aren't you afraid that I will hold back this movie..."
Ning Hao smiled slightly and said, "The role was decided by President Li, not me. He hopes that you will play this role."
Ning Hao paused and then said: "As for experience, Mr. Li and I actually have the same view. The most important thing for an actor is spirituality rather than experience. James Cameron prepared for "Titanic" for five or six years. , when filming started in 1996, the production budget of this movie reached 200 million U.S. dollars. The 200 million U.S. dollars at that time was astronomical according to our current standards. However, for such a large-scale movie, he used Lai, who was only 22 years old at the time. Leonardo came to play the male lead. Leonardo lived up to his expectations and gave a perfect performance. Are you 25 years old this year? Mr. Li asked you to play the male lead in "Flying Tigers" No. 3, are you still afraid that you can’t control it?”
Although the character played by Liu Ye is the leading Chinese actor in the movie, in terms of role, he is weaker than the American pilot played by the first actor Chennault and the second actor Leonardo, so he is The character can only be regarded as the third male lead in this movie.
Ning Hao used Leonardo as an example. On the one hand, he used Leonardo to prove that the crew was not taking risks by hiring young actors. On the other hand, it also gave Liu Ye confidence that even young actors with little experience would It can also withstand big-budget films. The 22-year-old Leonardo can do it, so can he.
Liu Ye has never been as excited as he is now in his life. At the age of twenty-five, he has the opportunity to realize the dream that many actors have never been able to realize in their lifetime. Faced with such an opportunity, he especially solemnly promised Ning Hao, saying: "Brother Hao, You can rest assured that I will do my best to play this role well and live up to the trust you and Mr. Li have placed in me!"
Ning Hao nodded and said with a smile: "We also believe that you can play this role well and perform well. We also hope that you can be known to audiences around the world through this movie. The goal of Makino Image is Hollywood. I believe One day you can also become a Hollywood A-list star!"
Liu Ye said with red eyes: "Don't worry, I will definitely work harder!"
Wang Lan had already recovered from the shock at this time, and immediately began to play his due role, saying: "Mr. Ning, Yezi's current contract has three years left. If he forcibly breaks the contract, he may not be able to work in "Flying Tiger" in the future. During the filming of "Team", the current agency will always take the opportunity to argue with us. The company's legal team is still very capable, and they will not let it go easily. In my opinion, it is best to announce Ye Zi Before starring in this movie, I need to resolve the contract issues first."
Ning Hao then asked him: "Do you have any good suggestions?"
Wang Lan said: "Yezi's contract has three years left. According to the terms of the agreement, if both parties breach the contract, they can actually compensate RMB 5 million for the full contract. There is no need to litigate in court, because in that case, it will be easy for someone to take advantage of it." Hype the topic."
Ning Hao then said: "In this case, it is up to you to discuss the contract with your current agency. If the five million can be peacefully terminated, Makino Yingxiang will come up with the money."
…
Just two days later, Wang Lan negotiated the compensation amount for Liu Ye's termination. The total amount was 4.8 million yuan. Liu Ye would pay 4.8 million yuan to the current agency. After the other party receives the payment, the contract between the two parties will be officially advanced. termination.
The money was borne by Makino Imaging and paid to his agency through Liu Ye's hand. Later, Liu Ye officially terminated the contract. After the termination, Liu Ye also officially joined Makino Imaging, following him Also joining Makino Imaging is his agent Wang Lan, and Wang Lan has become Makino Imaging’s gold medal agent. Ning Hao is going to hand over Huang Bo and Tang Wei to him.
After Liu Ye arrived, Li Mu made a special trip to ask Du Wei out for dinner. Both of them were public figures, so they made an appointment at Li Tong's Fayue Restaurant.
The two met in the box specially prepared for them by Li Tong. Du Wei arrived a little earlier. When Li Mu was led to the box by the waiter, he was stunned by Du Wei waiting in the box at first sight.
After not seeing her for a few days, Du Wei seemed to be much more beautiful than before. At first glance, she seemed to be much more mature than before. She no longer dressed up like a little girl, and she also learned to put on light makeup.
In Li Mu's view, Du Wei was not a rough jade, she was born with a flawless piece of beautiful jade. After applying a little pink and white, it was like a finishing touch of fine carving, highlighting the whole person's appearance and temperament vividly.
The surprise in Li Mu's eyes flashed away, and then he teased Du Wei: "You have a lot of fans, and you dress up so beautifully when you go out. If people know you are here, the fans will have to tear down Li Tong's restaurant." .”
Du Wei sneered and said, "Brother Li Mu will make fun of me. Don't you know which one of us has more fans?"
Du Wei's rhetorical question left Li Mu speechless. After a moment, he laughed and said, "I haven't seen you for a while, and you have developed your tongue..."
"Learned from my sister." Du Wei raised her eyebrows narrowly, and then asked Li Mu, "Brother Li Mu went to the United States some time ago?"
"Yes." Li Mu nodded: "You should know about "Flying Tigers"."
"I know." Du Wei said with a smile, "Is this why you came to me today?"
Li Mu asked her: "How do you know?"
Du Wei blinked: "Guess."
Li Mu looked at her with interest and asked, "Then guess what exactly I am looking for you for?"
Du Wei crossed her hands, pursed her lower lip, and said, "Brother Li Mu, do you want me to play the heroine of "Flying Tigers"?"
Li Mu smiled and said, "Are you guessing again?"
Du Wei shook her head: "Presumably, they all said that you love me the most, so I guessed that I must be the number one candidate in your mind."
Li Mu asked curiously: "Who are they?"
Du Wei smiled and said: "My sister, Brother Chen Ze, they, and the media also say the same thing. Many media are speculating on who you will let play the Chinese male and female protagonists in this movie. Most of them They all think that you will let me play the female lead, and the reason they gave is that you prefer me the most."
When she said the last sentence, Du Wei's pretty face turned red. Saying such words herself, even though she was repeating what the media had said, still made her a little embarrassed.
In fact, what Du Wei said is right, and what the media said is also right. Li Mu indeed prefers Du Wei, just like Lin Xi prefers Yang Qianhua. With Li Mu's identity and status, the stars he can praise are already rare. , and there are only two stars that he has truly praised personally, one is Mo Wenwei and the other is Du Wei.
Mo Wenwei is different from Du Wei. Li Mu's strong support for Mo Wenwei is entirely due to Mo Wenwei's absolute support for Li Mu. Whether it is Tieba, Taobao charity auction, or Taobao album sales, Mo Wenwei is fully cooperating with Li Mu in all aspects. This is an activity, so everyone knows the reason why Li Mu favors her. On the one hand, it is to reciprocate the favor, and on the other hand, it is to send a message to the entertainment industry that those who follow me will prosper.
But Du Wei is different. Li Mu's preference for Du Wei is a complete preference. Du Wei was originally a complete outsider. Li Mu has been partial to her since "Old Boy". Not only did he later He favored Du Wei in both film and television and singing, and even personally took her to Hong Kong to attend a charity dinner, and then customized "Those Years" for her, which was popular all over the country and even in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Therefore, in the eyes of the media, Li Mu If he is so partial to Du Wei, then he will definitely give Du Wei the Chinese heroine in "Flying Tigers"!
