    Ning Huan actually said this idea more than once. He thought this way in his previous life, and he will probably work in this direction in this life. Otherwise, why would he major in literature?  He did not directly choose to be a director, but planned to start as a screenwriter, because in his concept, it seems that an outstanding director cannot graduate from the directing department, because as a director, it seems that the time spent is besides learning the director itself.  ¡Ë Shen Zhenghui gave Ning Huan this opportunity, and at the same time he also showed the preferential treatment he received as an excellent director, but Ning Huan seemed to focus on women.  "Now we still haven't chosen the role of Jerry. Do you have any special requirements? Director." Thomas broke the silence that filled the casting room. "I saw that you wrote that you wanted to choose a person who is about sixteen years old.  "I also made it a point to choose an actor with black hair and dark eyes, preferably someone who looks like a Roman," Shen Zhenghui replied.  "I think Harry Potter is quite suitable." Thomas replied.  "Oh, forget it, his face doesn't look shrewd at all." Shen Zhenghui shrugged.  "I can find a dozen blond children, and I can even find ten red-haired children with black hair and black eyes." Gordon also shrugged, "Why don't you just find a young actor in China?  " Shen Zhenghui was a little helpless, "It is really difficult to find an actor in China who has deep facial lines, meets Western aesthetics and meets my other requirements," he replied.  "Why don't you try Mark?" "His appearance and temperament don't quite match." "Then use his younger brother." "His younger brother is suitable for the role of Enlaike." Shen Zhenghui replied.  "I think," Gordon continued, "it's too risky to use an Asian boy as the protagonist. I think you might want to consider giving Mario a different role. I think Jerry is good. He looks very good too.  "Smart." Gordon said, "Then we choose a nice white kid to play the role of Enleko, who is handsome enough to look like a woman. If makeup can't do it, we can probably just find a girl to play it."  If Cate Blanchett is not yet eighteen, I will consider your suggestion," Shen Zhenghui replied.  "What does it have to do with her?" Gordon was a little confused, "If she plays Enleko, will it be too big?" Shen Zhenghui forgot for a moment that Cate Blanchett had not starred in "I'm Not There" yet, because she  She won the Venice Best Actress Award for playing Bob Dylan in the movie, but that was in 2007.  However, do you think you can meet famous actors like Xu Xian everywhere?  In order to take care of the children's emotions, Mario has never been dressed as a woman, but in Shen Zhenghui's mind, he is considered qualified enough in women's clothing.  At least the contrast between before and after is clear enough.  "No, I won't change my mind." Shen Zhenghui replied, "If you don't have such a candidate for the time being, then we can advertise for actors." "Are you so insistent?" Gordon asked.  "Okay, listen to me carefully." Shen Zhenghui cleared his throat, then knocked on the table, "This movie is very special. The male protagonist has such a cowardly character. Any white person who plays the role will look very awkward.  ," he pointed to his head.  "Here I am, with a unified idea for the entire film. So what's actually here is not the first movie, trying to make it to see if it's popular, but the whole story as a whole.  I have already thought about it, so my choice is definitely not just a simple consideration of the beginning, but all the stories are taken into consideration." He licked his lips, "In fact, I can't wait to include all the characters in the story.  OK. But considering that this puts too much pressure on your work, I think we should take it step by step. Now we are still thinking about how to get the first part out. If it works well, we still have a long time to cooperate.  "If it's not good, there won't be another one." He looked at the two people seriously, "What do you think?" Thomas opened his mouth and wanted to speak.  Shen Zhenghui shook his fingers and said, "Chunri will pay half of the production costs. I am the director. This is stipulated in the contract. A lot of money has been spent on a big project of 200 million US dollars. Let's let it go smoothly.  ." he said.  Thomas subconsciously looked at Mark Gordon.  Mark Gordon pursed his lips hard, "For you, there is only one Jerry left?" "Of course." Shen Zhenghui spread his hands, "I don't have too much energy to focus on it.As for the other supporting characters, it is enough to meet my requirements.  " "Amanda," Mark Gordon said, "she's just a little rebellious.  " "Understandable, I will give her a chance, even if she is not selected this time.  " "Well, I owe her parents.  Gordon closed his folder, "Let's meet later to discuss the selection of these actors?"  "    "Can.  "Shen Zhenghui replied. Thomas and Gordon stood up. "I'm exhausted," Thomas said. "It's hard to sit still.  " "Okay, Thomas, it's time for you to retire.  "Gordon replied. "Oh, no, I think I can work for a few more years.  Thomas shook his head, "I still want to raise little Thomas!"  " "Oh, little Thomas, what is he doing?  "Shen Zhenghui asked with interest. "He is a director and is raising money to produce his own independent film.  Thomas replied, "The failure of his debut movie put him in a bad situation.  " "Hey," Shen Zhenghui said suddenly, "Why don't you let him come to China?  I need lots and lots of assistant directors.  " "You already have enough assistant directors," Gordon glanced at Shen Zhenghui, "There are already four.  " "When you are shooting, you will know that this number is far from enough.  Shen Zhenghui blinked, and then he looked at Thomas, "Although he is an assistant director in name, his work is no different from that of a handyman."  " "That's a good idea," Thomas responded. "In fact, he is very yearning for the East.  " Gordon finally understood. Shen Zhenghui was using his position to bribe him openly, and it was not ruled out that Thomas and he were playing a double act. Gordon couldn't help but struggle a little, whether to accept this exchange, and let Shen Zhenghui make the decision in the casting.  "Gordon, how old is your child?  Thomas asked. ¡°I have a daughter.  Gordon finally said, "She is twenty years old and she has always wanted to be an actress."  " "We are short of many female characters, why not let her come and audition?  You can avoid it.  "Shen Zhenghui said. Gordon's expression seemed to be struggling, but in the end it changed and he said calmly, "Okay, I will call her and tell her.  " Shen Zhenghui clapped his hands, "Isn't this how everyone is happy?  You only have a daughter?  " "No, two.  This is the younger daughter. My older daughter is a doctor.  " "Call Lucy?  " "How do you know?  "Gordon showed a surprised expression. "Lily and Lucy, they always match each other so well.  "Shen Zhenghui spread his hands, "I guessed.  Then he added, "If there is a parrot named Pauli in your family, then I will doubt whether the characters in my English textbook are based on your family."  " It took Gordon a long time to realize this sentence, and he laughed. It was better now. The atmosphere relaxed.  "Is this how you deal with the producer?  "Ning Huan was sitting in Shen Zhenghui's room. There was a laptop on the table in front of him. But at this time, he had no intention of writing a script and was looking for Shen Zhenghui to chat. Shen Zhenghui was also sitting in front of the computer, flipping through one page after another.  A picture of a celebrity. After a while, he rubbed his eyes and said, "I'm so tired from looking at this.  He took a deep breath. "Do you have any good advice for Jerry?"  " "No," Ning Huan replied simply and clearly, "I watch few movies.  "    "Yeah?  Shen Zhenghui turned around and stared at Ning Huan, "What did you ask just now?"  " "Is your bribery method too low-end," Ning Huan asked. "Is it too simple and crude? If found out, will their company think that theywell, you know.  " "So you don't know much about Hollywood," Shen Zhenghui responded, "Of course, I don't know much about it either, but haven't you seen the effects?  " "I mean, are they not worried about finding out in the end?  "Shen Zhenghui asked. "If the movie succeeds, no one will investigate at all. If the movie fails, there is no need to investigate.  Shen Zhenghui spread his hands, "The blame will fall on the director, right?"  "    "ha?  " "But nothing will happen to the director. Look, didn't Director Wu lose MGM?  It¡¯s just that no one asked him to make a movie. If I failed, I would end up delaying for two years to enter Hollywood, or go back to my old career and make small-scale kung fu movies.  " Ning Huan had an incredulous expression on his face, "Well uh" "Look at Sunglasses King, isn't it okay to trick investors like that?Something happened?  Shen Zhenghui spread his hands and said, "Movies are risky and investment needs to be cautious."  " Ning Huan opened her mouth, "I don't think I'm ready to be a director yet.  " "Of course, you don't think being a director is so simple.  " "This sentence coming out of your mouth is simply unacceptable.  Ning Huan snorted, "Who are you going to choose, Jerry?"  " "Actually, I think you're pretty good," he said, looking at Ning Huan. "Although you're a little ugly, your height and your nature fit Jerry's shamelessness and ability to adapt to the changing circumstances.  It's even a bit sleazy. If there is really no candidate, I think it would be good to let you play the role in your true colors.  He nodded seriously to Ning Huan, "Think about it carefully and be prepared. This can be considered a big turning point in your life, and it may lay the foundation for you to become a director."  " Ning Huan looked a little dumbfounded and was stunned for a long time. "Is what you said true?  " "Don't you still know your own character?  Aren't you shameless, adept at adapting to the changing circumstances, and a bit naughty at the same time?  Ning Huan stood up angrily, "That's not what I'm asking," he arranged the tables, "I'm asking are you really prepared to let me play the role of Jerry?"  " Shen Zhenghui smacked his lips, "How about we put on makeup and try out the show tomorrow?  Ning Huan was obviously excited about winning the prize, "Really?"  " "Daniel Wu plays your brother. You will be envied by your female classmates in the future.  "Shen Zhenghui shook his head. Ning Huan rushed to Shen Zhenghui's bookcase, "I'm here to take a look at the performance books.  " "It's too late, I said.  Just show your true nature.  " Ning Huan's excitement all night turned into his performance the next day - it was still not good. But his performance inspired Gordon and Thomas. Ning Huan's slightly exaggerated performance style reminded Shen Zhenghui of Zhou Xingxing in "The Deer and the Cauldron"  The role played by Wei Xiaobao seemed a bit overdone, but Gordon and Thomas seemed to find inspiration from Ning Huan's performance. Gordon asked Thomas, "What do you think of Riley?"  He looks like such a bitch from the look of his face.  " Thomas seemed to be lost in memories, "He's the right age.  But it still needs to have a bit of cuteness, and I think McCaulis is quite suitable.  "The two of them instantly picked off young people who felt this way in Hollywood one after another. Ning Huan could only endure the broken dream of being an actor for the time being. "Don't worry too much, I can arrange a supporting role for you when the time comes.  "Shen Zhenghui comforted Ning Huan. "I want it too!  " Lan Jing raised her hand and said. Shen Zhenghui focused his attention on Lan Jing, "You seem to have resumed updating.  "He asked. "Yes," Lan Jing nodded. He was still a little nervous. "I will write it when I have time. I don't want to disappoint the readers.  " "It's okay to write.  Shen Zhenghui scratched his hair and said, "Every word you type is worth a lot of money."  " "My contract with Qidian has not changed.  "Lan Jing replied. "Yeah, that's not what I said.  Shen Zhenghui patted Lan Jing on the shoulder, "When "Magic Apprentice" is successful, you will be a world-renowned writer. Oh, no, you are already a world-renowned writer now."  There are not as many translations of Lu Xun's books as you have.  " "But in terms of value, I am far from being able to compare with Lu Xun.  "Lan Jing said modestly. "It's enough to be comparable in terms of price.  Shen Zhenghui replied. Then he said to Lan Jing, "Don't write too fast."  Foreigners can't see it.  " "Can you translate a little slower?  "Ning Huan said at the side. After the crew prepared to finalize Jerry's casting, they immediately went to the mainland set. Fukuda Mitsumi also came to the casting place to show her face. She pulled Shen Zhenghui to a quiet place, "That  The girl came to apologize to me.  "She said. "Apologise?  Who?  " "Amanda.  Mitsumi Fukuda said with a smile, "If she hadn't taken the initiative to confess to me, I wouldn't have known that you, as a director, would have faced so many temptations.  " "What?  "Shen Zhenghui felt confused. "She is too self-righteous. You also know what an upright person I am. I will never take little girls like them to heart.  " "I'm not here to educate you ideologically.  Mitsumi Fukuda rolled her eyes, "I just want to remind you not to be too self-righteous."  Gordon and Thomas are both veteran producers, and your never-failing track record so far has mostly taken place outside of Hollywood, and you should obviously listen to them more if you want to please Hollywood audiences.  "  "Yes, I know." Shen Zhenghui nodded, maybe a little impatient in his heart, "What does this have to do with that Amanda?" "It's nothing, it's just that she suddenly came to apologize to me, which made me suddenly realize that I have  It doesn't seem good that I haven't cared much about your personal life for a long time. " "No, that's good." Shen Zhenghui waved his hands quickly, becoming more and more like an ostrich, "Don't worry, I'm not that bad.  "Beast." "Of course I don't mean that," Mitsumi Fukuda responded, "I just feel that Aonuma Tomoaki can only stay with you for such a long time, after all, her role is limited to  "It's so long, do you need me to help you make some arrangements?" She widened her eyes and asked with concern, "Liu Xin still has work to do, what do you think of Tengtang Xiangcheng?" "That's enough, don't leave."  What a joke." Shen Zhenghui became a little angry, "I am very busy at work and have no energy at all." "How is this possible? You are only thirty years old. Look at those old men in Hollywood, such as Scarlett Johansson.  She is his muse. "Don't remind me that I am thirty years old." Shen Zhenghui almost jumped up. "Woody has a brain problem. Don't compare me to him." He will still compare with him in the future.  The Korean adopted daughter is unfaithful and you simply can¡¯t believe his sense of aesthetics. In comparison, Scarlett is indeed a muse.  Shen Zhenghui shook his head vigorously, "That's enough. Just tell me. What are you here for? Stop talking about such nonsense. Amanda is a relative of Gordon. It seems that you are talking to him about your children's education than with  "I think this is reliable." "It's his friend's daughter," Fukuda Mitsumi corrected, "She's not a relative. In fact, her candid attitude makes me think she's quite cute. Don't you think about her?"  You're over twenty, so you don't have to feel guilty." Shen Zhenghui rolled his eyes, "You're just here to tell me this?" "I hope you don't feel any pressure," Mitsumi Fukuda said, "You are a great director.  "If you need to relieve stress, there are many people waiting in line." "Of course I'm not stressed, please." Shen Zhenghui half-squinted his eyes, "I don't need to release stress in this way." "This is not good.  Fukuda Mitsumi made an embarrassed expression, "If Amanda gets something in return without giving anything, she will think that we are good people or taken advantage of." She looked at Shen Zhenghui, "Do you think we are good people or taken advantage of?"  ?¡± ¡°I never say who I am.¡± Shen Zhenghui stared at Fukuda Mitsumi coldly.  "I knew you would say that." Mitsumi Fukuda tilted her head, "Don't worry, I have already helped you get the reward from Amanda." "Hey, what did you say, wait." Shen Zhenghui was frightened.  The degree is even greater than before.  "So just assign a role to her." Mitsumi Fukuda said calmly, "After all, you have to give Gordon some face, and it's not good to take advantage of a girl." So what's going on?  Shen Zhenghui couldn't help but roll his eyes.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
