China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 218 Visiting Cheng Long at his door. Cheng Long recommends Wang Zuxian (please subscribe!)

On the afternoon of October 10, after Chen Dong went to the airport to see off representatives from Lionsgate and Warner, he did not return to the company, but went directly home.

"Honey, please pack two sets of clothes for me later. I'm going to Xiangjiang tomorrow."

"What are you going to do in Xiangjiang?"

"Invite Cheng Long to play the male lead. By the way, I have some working contacts with Ying Huang."

Liu Yifei nodded slightly, and then asked: "Honey, how long will you be leaving for?"

"Probably two or three days." Chen Dong teased his son, as if remembering something, he looked up at his wife: "Do you want to go together?"

"...I won't go." Liu Yifei hesitated for two seconds before shaking her head.

While she was packing Chen Dong's things to take when going out, she pondered a question.

"By the way, hubby, the character of Murphy has to span three age groups in the movie. I won't be playing all three age groups, right?"

Chen Dong met his wife's gaze and smiled at her: "How about I go ask my mother if she is willing to act."

"I'll go right away." Liu Yifei was startled after hearing this, then put down what she was doing, turned around and walked towards the door.

Chen Dong watched his wife disappear from the door, turned back his gaze and complained to his son who was babbling: "You are already a mother, and you are still so impatient!"

"Mom." The little guy heard the word "Mom" and imitated it.

"I am your father."

Soon, the furious Liu Yifei came back to kill him.

Chen Dong discovered through her expression that things were not going so smoothly.

Liu Yifei didn't show off. When she came to Chen Dong and his son, she sat down and said, "Mom knocked me back with just one sentence."

"What are you talking about?" Chen Dong stared at him curiously.

Liu Yifei cleared her throat, then imitated Liu Xiaoli's tone and said: "If I go to act, who will take care of your children at home?!"

"Ahem, what next?"

"Then I'll be back."

When Chen Dong thought about it, there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.

Seeing this, Liu Yifei continued to ask: "Besides my mother, husband, who else are you going to find to play the role of the elderly Murphy?"

"I haven't thought about it, I'll check it out later."

……

The next day.

When Chen Dong arrived at the airport, he found that Wen Muye was one step ahead of him.

After saying hello, Chen Dong found that the other person's eyes were very bloodshot, "You've stayed up late these past two days, right?"

Wen Muye did not deny it, "Director Chen has given me such an important opportunity, and I must go all out."

"But you must also pay attention to the balance between work and rest. Don't destroy your body. You will lose more than you gain."

"Well, thank you Director Chen for your concern..."

"Relax, even this time, um, right, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

After Chen Dong and Wen Muye arrived in Xiangjiang, they did not make an appointment with Yinghuang's director Huo Wenxi first.

Instead, he visited Cheng Long first.

Because they had communicated in advance, Cheng Long did not go out today.

Not only did he not go out, but Prince Long, who was filming outside, was also called back temporarily by Cheng Long.

After Chen Dong, who was visiting for the first time, greeted Cheng Long's family, he also walked into the study with Cheng Long and chatted about the purpose of this visit.

"Brother must have guessed my purpose of coming. I won't show off. Please read the script first."

""Interstellar"."

To be honest, the name of Chen Dong's new movie is no longer a secret in the industry. Many people know it and know that it is a science fiction blockbuster targeting Hollywood.

Of course, Cheng Long had heard of it before.

He picked up the script out of curiosity, and after just reading the first page, he looked up at Chen Dong in surprise: "You want me to play the male lead?"

Chen Dong smiled and nodded.

He thought Cheng Long would continue reading the script before giving an answer. But in the next second, I heard him say decisively: "I will take this role."

uh~
This time it was Chen Dong's turn to be surprised.

So casual?

"Brother, why don't you make a decision after reading the script?"

"To be honest, if Director Chen asks me to play the role again and again, then I really have to read the script before making a decision. But since he is the male protagonist and it is such a high-investment science fiction film, you should direct it yourself, Director Chen. I’ll listen to the movie even with my eyes closed.”

Although I don't know how much moisture there is in Cheng Long's words, Chen Dong does feel comfortable listening to them.

Of course, next, Cheng Long finished reading the script.

The script did not disappoint Cheng Long, it could even be said to have greatly exceeded his expectations.

"Director Chen, how did you come up with such an awesome script?"

"Just thinking wildly."

Seeing that Cheng Long didn't believe it, Chen Dong paused and added: "Actually, when I first conceived of "Inception", I had a prototype of the story in my mind."

Cheng Long accepted this statement and praised without hesitation: "Director Chen, I have to say, you are really a...genius!"

"It's ridiculous to say that when it comes to acting and kung fu, my eldest brother can also be called a genius, so I think we are both shining in our respective fields."

"Haha, what Director Chen said is so obvious!"

While they were discussing 'business', the aunt at home had already prepared the meals.

Long's sister-in-law Lin Fengjiao knocked on the door and said something, and Cheng Long stood up and invited Chen Dong to the banquet.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Cheng Long received his son's hint and raised his glass again to toast Chen Dong.

"Director Chen, do you still need any handymen in this play? Let my useless son come in and gain some experience."

Although Chen Dong was a little drunk now, his mind was still clear.

He did not agree with Cheng Long's suggestion to let his son do odd jobs on his crew. After all, it was impossible to really arrange for the other person to do odd jobs.

The reason is easy to find. Cheng Long has read the script. Except for the few changed by Chen Dong, almost all the characters in "Interstellar" are non-Asian characters.

Chen Dong can change his wife's personality, but that's fine with being an outsider.

However, eating people has a short tongue. It happened that "Painted Skin 2" was about to be launched, so he took it out and made a favor.

"Director Chen, is the project for "Painted Skin 2" about to be approved? Doesn't it mean that the director hasn't been decided yet..." Prince Long asked.

"It's not confirmed yet, but it should be soon."

What Chen Dong was thinking was that if Wen Muye failed to meet expectations this time, then he would have no choice but to find Wuershan.

The topic was brought back to the role. Cheng Long was not surprised at all that it was Liu Yifei who played his daughter Murphy.

Of course, he is worthy of being a veteran actor, and he revealed in one sentence that at least two people are needed to play this role.

Now that the topic has reached this point, it just so happens that Chen Dong doesn't know who to choose to play the elderly Murphy, so he took the opportunity to ask Cheng Long for his opinion.

"Huh? This role hasn't been decided yet?"

"There just aren't any."

"Director Chen, are you under the dark light? Who else is more suitable than your mother-in-law?"

Chen Dong shook his head: "My mother-in-law refuses to act."

Cheng Long saw that Chen Dong was serious.

I didn't even ask what the reason was.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly flashed in Cheng Long's mind.

"Director Chen, she may be suitable."

"Who?"

"Wang Zuxian."

"Who? Wang Zuxian, didn't she withdraw from the circle?"
