At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 218 If you change it, you will change it (24)

"Gong Li? Will she pick it up?"

"...I'll call her and ask her to come over and have a face-to-face talk!"

These words made a few people a little bit off guard...

You make a call and she comes over?
She is Gong Li!
who are you?
Mou?
Several people had different expressions, Zhang Guoli was stunned for a while: "You make a phone call..."

Shen Xudong had already pulled out his mobile phone and made a call. He enthusiastically said that director Feng Xiaogang had a good script in his hands, but he lacked a heroine who could act...

Gong Li was immediately interested: "Is the script good?"

Shen Xudong said: "It's very good, and the lineup is also very strong. Uncle Ge plays the male number two..."

"I'll come right away...how about you come pick me up?"

"Okay, I'm driving the car!"

After hanging up the phone, Shen Xudong said: "Sister Gong Li asked me to pick her up... Her hotel is not very far from here. If there is no traffic jam, the round trip can take up to an hour..."

Feng Xiaogang swallowed: "...Okay, okay, you go pick it up..."

Xu Fan also said: "...drive slowly..."

"Don't worry, I'm an old driver!"

Shen Xudong walked out of the box with a confident face...

Zhang Guoli glanced at Feng Xiaogang, who happened to be looking at him too. The two old men thought of a certain possibility at the same time, but gave up again...

Impossible, how could Gong Li have an affair with Shen Xudong?
The idea is so nasty.

Shen Xudong's face is full of sunshine, he only thinks about his career...

Well, it must be so!

As for Xu Fan and Deng Jie, they have already started to congratulate Feng Xiaogang...

Shooting Gong Li means that Feng Xiaogang has reached a higher level...

After all, she is the number one female star in the mainland...

What is a great director?
I can shoot big stars...

So Shen Xudong is also a great director?

Maybe not. After all, applause and making a movie are two concepts. Even if there is video recording, it can’t be counted as a movie, let alone not yet!
……

After Gong Li heard the general plot of "A World Without Thieves", he was a bit reluctant to continue...

"Where is the problem?"

"Is this a purely commercial film?"

"What happened to commercial films? Now that movies are marketed, what is marketization? Box office is king! Commercial films are the mainstream!"

"...Is it mainstream? No wonder "Hero" can get 2.5 million box office!"

"So, the little master of poetry is going to make a blockbuster movie..."

"Then "A World Without Thieves" is a blockbuster?"

"No, although the starring lineup is all big stars, the scene is not big enough..."

Gong Li nodded, and then asked: "...how did you think I could play it?"

Shen Xudong took it for granted: "Of course I want to think about you... When I come into contact with the script now, my first thought is whether you can play the role, and then I will consider whether it is suitable according to your status... The director of "A World Without Thieves" is Feng Xiaogang, starring Andy Lau + Ge You, regardless of the behind-the-scenes lineup or the main creative actors, you will not lose your reputation if you take it..."

Gong Li smiled: "It's so comprehensive, I feel like you know more than my manager!"

"The division of labor is different. Your agent is in charge of your career, but I don't care about yours..."

"Then what do you care about?"

"...Come closer!"

Gong Li rolled his eyes at him, but still leaned his head closer, and Shen Xudong whispered something that he couldn't write...

When it comes to poses, role-playing, stuff like that...

"...Good idea! Who do you think I am?"

"Try it, it's very interesting!"

"...Have you tried it with anyone?"

"No…"

"Then how dare you say such things to me?"

Shen Xudong didn't speak, just drove, Gong Li regretted it a bit, felt that what he said was a bit heavy, and was about to say something, Shen Xudong stopped the car, then unfastened his seat belt, and signaled her to get out of the car, Gong Li didn't understand, so he followed down...

"Come back!"

"…do what?"

"Just come!"

What can I do?
Shen Xudong directly proved his courage with actions...

……

About an hour and a half later, Shen Xudong led Gong Li to the box...

The conversation was very pleasant, Liu Ruoying and Gong Li, even a fool knows who to choose!

What?Conley too expensive?
How expensive can it be?

Can't get investment?
What an international joke?
Let's put it this way, when a script is completed and is intended to be shot, the employer will pay based on the director's position and the actor's cast.

For example, "A World Without Thieves", Liu Dehua + Ge You, 3000 million investment is appropriate.

If you add Gongli, then 5000 million or even 6000 million is possible!
It's not that Gong Li's remuneration is worth 2000 million or 3000 million, but the joint effect of personal value.

The three leading actors are all first-line stars, and the investors are willing to give money.

Feng Xiaogang even called Huang Zhongjun on the spot and told him that the heroine had been replaced by Gong Li...

Of course, Huang Zhongjun has no objection - investing in such a big production can only show Huayi's ambition and strength!
In the whole matter, the only people who have opinions are probably Liu Ruoying and Chen Guofu...

But... so what?

If you change it, just change it. What’s wrong, I need to explain to you?
Feng Xiaogang was overjoyed, and even proposed that Gong Li be the heroine of "Party A and Party B 2"...

Gong Li was also very happy: "As long as the script is good!"

"The script was written by Xudong!"

Gong Li hurriedly looked at Shen Xudong, who frowned: "...It's not suitable, the heroine of that play has too few roles, and she is not very good. Sister Gong Li is a big star, acting in that play is a bit overqualified..."

When a big star takes over a play, there are requirements for character design and play.

"Party A and Party B 2", that is, "One Day Tour of Sweet Dreams", the whole play revolves around the male perspective. If Gong Li plays it, it would be too wasteful...

Gong Li didn't take it seriously: "Tell me about the script!"

Shen Xudong spoke briefly, Gong Li listened, and asked him: "Is this also about love?"

"...It counts!"

"How could you write such a script at such a young age?"

"The market needs it..."

Zhang Guoli interjected: "The market needs?"

Shen Xudong explained: "Joining the WTO means that the market will soon be opened. How can we compete with Hollywood? Special effects, high-concept blockbusters, we can't compete, we can only find another way, costume blockbusters or local comedies... Romance movies are all over the world. It’s all right, and it’s also a subject of strength…”

Zhang Guoli said with emotion: "...you, a Chinese opera student, think about these things every day?"

"It's not every day, I just thought of it..."

"...I'll act in this movie, anyway, I don't have a good script to find me... just treat it as a primary school boy who supports me!"

Juniors are juniors, why do you say small?

Feng Xiaogang's brows were beaming with joy - what he said meant that he didn't charge for guest appearances...

Hasten to compliment: "You are making a contribution to Chinese movies!"

"...No, I just like this script..."

Shen Xudong thought of the "Perfect Stranger" mentioned earlier, and suggested: "By the way, Director Feng, I think Sister Gong Li is quite suitable for the heroine of "Mobile Phone 2"..."

"The one you just said?"

"Um…"

Feng Xiaogang pondered for a while, and it was indeed suitable...

Gong Li asked, "Mobile Phone 2?"

"...Oh, it's like this. I read "Mobile Phone" and thought of a book... Its concept is a game. During dinner, everyone takes out their mobile phones, and when they receive text messages or calls, they must be made public..."
