This entertainment industry is a bit strange

Chapter 387 Are you kidding me?

The detailed adaptation plan of "Infernal Affairs" is still a secret inside Xingqing Culture, and only a few people such as Ding Lan know about it.

Besides, Gao Yuanyuan knew a little bit about it, but Cheng Long and her basically had nothing to do with each other.

So the only one who could leak the secret could only be Liu Dehua!
Cheng Long was also very happy, and directly admitted, "It was indeed Hua Tsai who told me about it, but don't blame him, I forced him to say it."

Yang Rui sighed speechlessly, it's all like this, who knows if he was forced or he slipped up?
Hiding is impossible, Yang Rui can only bite the bullet and say: "It is true that there is such a plan, but the specific plan has not yet been decided."

"I understand." Cheng Long nodded with a smile, "Then...is it appropriate to join this film?"

"Inappropriate." Yang Rui shook his head bluntly and said, "Uncle Long, the film in my plan is a portrayal of group portraits, not a film of individual heroism..."

"Stop." Cheng Long directly made a T gesture, "I've already said that I want to transform, how can I still pursue movies about individual heroism?"

"That doesn't work either." Yang Rui smiled wryly; "There are several main characters in this film, and it's a little inappropriate for your celebrity to be mixed in."

"What's inappropriate?" Cheng Long said with a stern face: "I, Cheng Long, are just a bit more famous. When I enter the set, I still have one head and two legs. What's so special?"

"But..." Yang Rui was really at a loss, "The two protagonists in it, you are not suitable to play any of them."

This time, Cheng Longgan was really silenced, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Azu who was on the side didn't dare to catch his breath, and secretly felt that this young director was so courageous.

Those who dare to say in person that Cheng Long can't play a certain role, probably can't find many in the entire Chinese film industry...

After frowning for a long time, Cheng Long said, "The protagonist is not suitable, so what about the supporting role?"

Upon hearing this, Azu's eyeballs almost fell out.

Yang Rui was also taken aback, "Uncle Long, are you kidding me?"

In this day and age, would anyone dare to let Cheng Long play a supporting role?

The director and lead actor must not be scolded to be autistic? !
"Actually, I can do it." Cheng Long said indifferently: "It's not impossible to transform into a literary drama, starting with a supporting role first."

Fuck, this mentality...

Impressed.

But Yang Rui still shook his head, "Uncle Long, you are willing, but can your team and company accept it?"

Cheng Long was silent again, this is indeed a problem.

With his current status, his every move is no longer a purely personal behavior, it will be related to the jobs of countless people.

After another long while, he asked, "If the characters are good enough, I can convince them."

Yang Rui instinctively wanted to refuse, but seeing Cheng Long's sincere face, he couldn't speak anymore.

This is not a rookie who can't get a job, nor is it a star who has passed away. This is an action superstar who is popular all over the world, and a top boss who can earn tens of millions of dollars with his eyes closed.

In order to seek an opportunity for transformation, he can be humbled to such an extent... If he refuses this again, he will be a little ignorant.

After deliberating for a while, Yang Rui still asked: "Uncle Long, I am also a stubborn person. I like to act arbitrarily and independently when shooting, and I don't like others to interfere with my shooting."

Cheng Long understood instantly, "Don't worry, I won't cross the line."

"That's good." Yang Rui nodded, "There is a role that suits you quite well, but...this role is quite different from your previous image, it's a gangster boss."

This time, even Azu couldn't sit still.

Cheng Long has played a hero for 30 years, and he has already become a living sign of Xiangjiang. If he is asked to play the black boss... I can't imagine the consequences!
But without waiting for him to speak, Cheng Long repeated the question with a solemn expression: "I still say the same thing, is the character brilliant?"

"Yes." Yang Rui nodded, "As long as the performance is done well, it will definitely be brilliant. There should be many famous scenes in my conception."

"Okay, then I'm fine." Cheng Long held down Azu who was about to move, and half explained and half taught: "Since you want to transform, you might as well be thorough. It's a good thing to try different roles. Being too picky will only make you lose your temper." Draw the ground and constrain your upper limit."

Wu Yanzu nodded quickly, with an open-minded look on his face.

Then Cheng Long looked at Yang Rui with a smile again, "What do you think of Azu?"

Yang Rui: "..."

I just said, why did you call him over to be with you? The feelings are here to form a group to gather wool!
However, he still has a good impression of this handsome man. After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "You may not have a lot of roles as a young man who plays one of the two male protagonists. Are you interested?"

"Thank you Director Yang, I will try my best to act well."

Azu didn't smudge at all, he stood up and bent down, shaking Yang Rui's hand in thanks.

As for whether the character is good or not... Cheng Long is not picky, how can he be picky here? !

Seeing that Cheng Long was about to speak again, Yang Rui couldn't help but said first: "Is it Xie Tingfeng's turn next?"

Cheng Long was stunned for a moment, smiled and put his arms around Yang Rui's shoulders, "Two heroes and two heroes, there must have been two when I was young, isn't there one left?"

"Uncle Long, just let me go." Yang Rui said helplessly: "After all, this is a film cast by our company. If you have all the important roles given to you, how can I explain it when I go back? Boss Ding can do it all the time." Slap me to death."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it for now." Cheng Long broke the topic with a smile.

He understood the implication of the sentence just now—he still wants a role, so talk to Mr. Ding!
Cheng Long wasn't stupid either. Azu and Fengzai treated each other differently. There must be some personal emotions in it.

Azu's role can be given, that is to save face.

But Fengzi's role... If you want to be able to do it, you have to show sincerity first!
Cheng Long could see it clearly, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Who told Xie Laosi to commit suicide first, and to be his own son.

…………

When they left the tea restaurant, the outsiders had almost been driven away, only a few fanatics were still there and shouted Cheng Long's name loudly.

After getting into the car, Yan Danchen, who had been holding back for a long time, finally let out a long breath, his face full of shock.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, I couldn't believe that Cheng Long would come to ask you for a role!"

Yang Rui shook his head with a smile, "You still don't understand, he wants the role for himself only incidentally, his real purpose is to give those two oil bottles a chance."

"Ah?" Yan Danchen was taken aback.

"It seems that the favor account behind Uncle Long is also a mess..." Yang Rui smiled and said: "But it is a good thing for us, it means that we will have an extra door god in the future."

"At least from now on, I don't have to worry about people in Xiangjiang who don't have eyes."
