Entertainment: Stepmother’s daughter is actually a future queen

Chapter 108 Difficulties in selecting people

"If it doesn't work, let's just shoot normally." Mai Zhaohui pushed up his glasses, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Our request is indeed quite embarrassing."

Mai Zhaohui looked over the list in his hand, "Why don't we just leave it like this."

Mai Zhaohui pondered for a moment, picked up the ballpoint pen on the side, and drew two circles on the list. After pondering for a while, Mai Zhaohui nodded, and then handed it to Liu Weiqiang beside him, "How is it?"

Liu Weiqiang looked at these two names, pinched his thigh with one hand, and his whole face wrinkled into a bitter melon.

"Wa Tsai is definitely perfect to play Liu Jiehui... What stands out about this character is that he is a decent person on the surface, but can he portray the dark feeling behind him?"

Liu Weiqiang said worriedly, "You know, his acting skills have always been a little bit away from being perfect."

Mai Zhaohui tapped his fingers on the table. This could only be said by the two of them behind closed doors. If they spoke out, they would be scolded, "There is no choice..., the other people's temperaments are even more incompatible." , you can’t use an amateur, right?”

"No matter what, Andy Lau's popularity can still support this movie."

Mai Zhaohui said it very seriously. Even though they got such a script, they still murmured in their hearts.

Once this movie hits the market, their reputation will be ruined, and besides, they have to be responsible to their investors.

Is there anything more secure than having a big shot in your hand?

Why are those people the same people who come and go in Hong Kong these years?Is it possible that the newcomer is really dead?
"Okay, but isn't it too inappropriate for Chen Yongren to use him...?" Looking at the other circle, Liu Weiqiang shook his head and frowned.

"It cannot be said that his temperament is not related to Chen Yongren, it can only be said that they are completely opposite..."

Mai Zhaohui laughed awkwardly and said, "Then who do you want to use? Tony Leung is not young anymore, and he really doesn't look like a thug. Liu Qingyun, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, will definitely be able to replace Sir Huang. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to ask him to play Chen Yongren." Bar?"

"Gu Tianle..., you can give it a try, but the horror is not much different from Liang Chaowei."

Liu Weiqiang couldn't help scratching his head. In fact, the actor and the role were relatively poorly matched. This was not a problem with the Infernal Affairs family. It was too common.

But Liu Weiqiang still felt something was wrong, "The role of Chen Yongren is too important to be so confused!"

"So when I have no choice, I must choose a protagonist with a face." Mai Zhaohui said rationally, "At least one glance can let the audience know that this is one of the male protagonists!"

Liu Weiqiang shook his head. This statement was definitely not enough to convince him, but in this situation, he really had no choice.

I can only hold my nose and admit it first. Whether there is a better choice in the future, I can only talk about it later!

"Sir Huang can also choose Liu Qingyun, or Huang Qiushen."

"Try Liu Qingyun as much as possible." Liu Weiqiang pondered for a moment, but didn't have much to refute, "But, where is Han Chen?"

"Boss Zeng?"

Liu Weiqiang still shook his head, "Boss Zeng has enough aura to play Han Chen, but don't forget that although this character does not have two sides, he does have two sides in terms of growth."

When Liu Weiqiang said this, Mai Zhaohui fell silent. In fact, he understood what Liu Weiqiang meant as soon as he said it.

Although the script of Infernal Affairs 2 has not yet been written, the character Xiao Zhuan has been written first, which means that they generally have a good idea of ​​the ins and outs of the character "Han Chen".

To some extent, it is inseparable from "growth", such a process of transformation.

In other words, in the first part, the boss with amazing aura, in the second part, he is actually a man who has not grown up at all and is very "loyal". The mixed society is actually just a means for him to survive. one person.It was not until after the fight with Ni Yongxiao that Han Chen lost everything, and then his hair turned gray overnight, this sudden change.

From being opaque to being cruel, this sense of change completely replaced Ni Yongxiao.

Therefore, if Eric Tsang had been invited, he would have done a good job and could clearly and unmistakably convey the sense of change that makes the two completely different!
The best is 2 miles, when people are much younger, and then the vicissitudes of life happen overnight, that kind of change.

Of course, Liu Weiqiang also knew that this was just a thought. Judging from the script, it would be great, but if he really followed the script exactly, it would be a bit taken for granted.

"Old Maiqian, don't try to persuade me yet. I'll think about it later."

"You still have to do it as soon as possible." Mai Zhaohui said with a wry smile, "It's been grinding for half a year. Once the grind continues, some people's schedules will be gone, and it will be even more troublesome to fall back!"

Liu Weiqiang waved his hand.

Knowing that his old friend was awkward, Mai Zhaohui could only stop persuading him and walked out of the office first, leaving him here to calm down. After Mai Zhaohui left, Liu Weiqiang dragged an ashtray away with one hand. Go to the window, open the half-opened window, and smoke silently there.

Looking at the crowded streets of Xiangjiang under the glass.

As a professional director, Liu Weiqiang really knows what he should do. If he really can't force it to be so comprehensive, then it's almost enough.

Chen Yongren used Louis Koo or Liang Chaowei, and Liu Jiehui used Liu Dehua.

If Sir Huang can invite Liu Qingyun, he will invite Liu Qingyun. If he can't invite Liu Qingyun, he will invite Huang Qiushen. In short, the acting skills of the two are always good.

If Han Chen can't be picky, then he can use Boss Zeng.

Investors have already paid tens of millions into their accounts. Once this lineup of kings is revealed, what are you still hesitating about? ?

With such a god-level script in your hand, it will be filmed and waited for other directors to worship and use it. Why are you still hesitating?
But Liu Weiqiang knew that he was hesitating about his unwillingness!This Infernal Affairs can obviously be more flesh and blood, can't it?
If it continues so hastily, wouldn't it turn into a mediocre police movie?

In fact, after working in the industry for so many years, Liu Weiqiang is very aware of what kind of psychology is at work in him. At best, it is called perfectionism, and at worst, it is called youth disease.

Making movies is all about making money, not shabby!

Sometimes, he really envied the free and easy Wang Jingzhong.

If you have money, shoot.

Thinking of this, Liu Weiqiang was lost in thought. In fact, he also knew what he was doing during this period. The script was basically finished, and the selection of actors was considered for half a month, but that was it.

It’s not that he doesn’t have a choice, it’s that he doesn’t want to choose!To put it bluntly, he just couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart and refused to nod his head and say, "Forget it, let's just shoot like that."

And why is Mai Zhaohui here today?Isn’t it because someone persuaded me and then came to persuade me to come?
In fact, from a very macro perspective of time, these complicated thoughts are just a passing moment. When the entire movie is finally presented, no one will imagine how long it took the former director to overcome his inner stubbornness.

But Liu Weiqiang also knew that he really couldn't delay it any longer.

The slightly protruding veins on the back of his hand made his palm tremble a little, and he twisted it hard towards the window to extinguish the cigarette ashes.

"Director Liu?"

"What are you doing!" Hearing the knock on the door, Liu Weiqiang replied rudely, which startled the man outside the door, but after a moment of silence, the assistant still whispered back, "Director Li from Qinzhou is here, and he brought A student has arrived."
