At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 588 Zhao Xin should really let Zhao Xin come to see the world!
Shen Xudong's reputation... must be very good in China, a sunny and cheerful boy, and he is also talented!

In America... it's a little bit more unrestrained.

Zheng Taicheng has a producer friend in the United States, and he has inquired about Shen Xudong's good one...

It's a coincidence, he is very familiar with this kind of public relations.

South Korea loves having female stars entertain guests!

In countries under the plutocratic system, many people's road to class transition is blocked, and they can only become stars...

It's useless to be a star, because you can't escape the chaebol...

Become a plaything for big bosses.

The Korean entertainment industry really serves the chaebols, as long as the chaebols fancy people, none of them can escape.

Coincidentally, CJ Film and Television belongs to CJ Group, which is also a chaebol...

After thinking for a while, Shen Xudong said: "There are indeed a few works I like very much, such as "Blue Life and Death" and "Witch Youxi". The performances of the two heroines are impressive."

Zheng Taicheng was stunned for a moment...

I'll go, you really know how to do it!
Song Hye Kyo, Han Ga In!

They are all stars!
Well, if you think about it, Shen Xudong, as the owner of a film and television company, has a lot of work to do every day, so it would be nice to remember two works!

These two are both TV dramas, and he probably noticed them while watching TV.

"...Okay, I got it!"

what do you know?
Could it be that you want to give a gift?

After a meal, Shen Xudong went directly upstairs to get ready to rest.

Although he is not the main character in the promotional work of "Girls", he still has to participate. He often flies to three cities in one day. This trip to South Korea was very hasty... The feeling of fatigue is still very strong.

After taking a shower, I lay on the bed and thought about the market problems in Korea.

In fact, the movie market in South Korea is not very big. Because of the population and other factors, the overall volume is quite small. The total annual box office data is around 12 billion US dollars...

As for the influence of the Hallyu - 2018 is considered to be the heyday of the Hallyu. South Korea's overseas audio-visual audio-visual and related service revenue reached 17.02 billion US dollars, achieving a surplus of 12.35 billion US dollars, setting a record since the statistics began in 2006...

That's right, the revenue is 12.35 billion...

Summary: Not as good as Yuanshen!
The most important thing in the film and television industry is the market!
While thinking, he fell asleep in a daze, and then heard a knock on the door...

Then I saw Jung Tae Sung's 'I got it', he really sent Song Hye Kyo and Han Ga In...

Shen Xudong originally wanted to chat a few words, asking Zheng Taicheng what conditions he promised, but the two of them had poor English, and they had no idea of ​​language communication, they only wanted to discuss art.

Then pure artistic exchange!

These two should have received relevant training, amazing skills, and very enthusiastic...

Shen Xudong had just slept for three hours, and his energy recovered to 80%. Although he was not at his full strength, he was able to deal with it at his full level—after all, he represented the Chinese people!
Oh, the next day, Shen Xudong gave each of them a business card of Joseph Drake, who is currently preparing for the American drama "Rogue" and needs a lot of actors...

……

It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to meet Kim Young Min, he really thought about fighting against Girls' Generation!

The main schedule was too tight, so I flew to the United States the next afternoon.

By the way, the director of "Strange She" is Huang Donghe - the director of the original version, as for the actors, there is still an audition. Anyway, Shen Xudong said that the mainland version of "Back to 20" will be released in June next year...

Shen Xudong is in a hurry to go to the United States, not all because of the release of "The Fault in Our Stars", but mainly because of the casting of "Twilight".

According to Joseph Drake's original words: The preparations for "Twilight" have not made much progress, but there are quite a few people who are paying attention.

Anyway, "Twilight" is also an adaptation of a best-selling novel!

In addition, many people also want to see if Shen Xudong can continue the magic...

After all, the "Twilight Saga" project was returned by the six groups.

Oh, and Kristen Stewart has been cast for the lead role -- her father is a showrunner for the Fox show, and her mother is a screenwriter who is on good terms with Joseph Drake.

Plus Kristen did really well in the audition.

Shen Xudong attaches great importance to "The Twilight Saga", so he does not intend to make "The Twilight Saga" have too many changes from his memory. After all, there are changes and there are uncertainties.

Christine can be regarded as the soul character of "Twilight", and Shen Xudong never planned to change it.

As for the male lead—let’s change it, after all, the behavior of scolding the cook when he is full is very annoying!

Henry Cavill is fine.

……

After arriving in Los Angeles, before Shen Xudong had time to go to the hotel, he was taken to the casting scene of "Twilight" by Joseph Drake...

Shen Xudong was a little confused, so: "...Why did you ask me to come here?"

Joseph Drake explains: "It's a $4000 million project and you're the producer!"

"Okay, let them in!"

In fact, the male and female protagonists have been determined, and the remaining supporting roles are irrelevant. Try to find handsome men and beautiful women...

Anyway, "The Twilight Saga" is a thing that sells Mary Sue, dog blood, love triangle...

The important thing is that apart from the male and female protagonists, there is also the director who set the tone for the first film. Shen Xudong found the director Catherine Hardwick according to the original version.

This director was born as an artist, so the art design of "Twilight" is very emotional, and the whole story is in cool colors...

The location of the audition is the "Twilight" studio in Los Angeles. The studio system is a common practice in Hollywood projects. Generally, when a high-cost film project is approved, the production company will set up a corresponding studio to coordinate the film's funds, Preparations, personnel, filming, advertising, sponsorship and peripheral work...

"Twilight" is certainly not a big investment, but $4000 million is considered a moderate investment.

The whole studio, not too much!
The audition scene is very lively...

There are countless young people with dreams in Hollywood. They usually work part-time and go for interviews when they have the opportunity.

With a production cost of 4000 million US dollars, and it is still an adaptation of a best-selling novel, there are so many auditions...

Shen Xudong... not to mention a feast for the eyes, I feel that there are really too few beautiful girls.

No wonder later generations of Hollywood movies are so hard to pick a suitable vase!
Then, a girl with light blue eyes and a plump figure entered...

"Hi, my name is Alexandra Daddario, 23 years old, born in New York... In 02, I starred in the TV series "My Children", and I was a regular character...

Been in two movies... I love the Rosalie Hale character..."

Rosalie Hale, supporting role, member of the Cullen family…

Joseph Drake was very discerning. He observed that Shen Xudong's eyes lit up when Alexandra Daddario came in.

So, after Alexandra Daddario introduced himself, he decisively asked in the tone of 'asking for instructions': "Producer Shen, what do you think?"

"Cough..." Shen Xudong nodded: "Very good..."

In fact, Shen Xudong's eyes lit up. In addition to Alexandra Daddario's good looks and tall figure, the most important thing was that he thought of one thing: Zhao Xin should really come to see the world!
