Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 299 "Avengers" is also called Chen Cheng's audition.

"Chen, I think I will consider your role carefully."

Looking at Chen Cheng, Peter said seriously.

In fact.

Before this, Peter hadn't considered Chen Cheng at all.

Age comes second.

Most importantly, Chen Cheng is a Chinese.

It’s not that he dislikes Chinese people.

But deep down in his heart, he never thought of letting a Chinese actor play a role that he thought was more important.

Not to mention the Elf King.

The Elf King plays a small role in The Hobbit.

But he always considered it an extremely important role.

This role is as important as the elf prince.

even.

he thinks.

The charm of the Elf King character may exceed that of the Elf Prince.

Such an important role.

He would consider those actors who have been famous in Hollywood for a long time.

He would not consider a Chinese actor even if he was not an established actor.

"Ok."

Chen Cheng smiled, shook hands with Peter and left.

Even though he knew.

Peter still hadn't made up his mind.

Chen Cheng knew that Peter might still be considering it.

or.

He also wants to audition some other actors.

……

"Invite the actors who are expected to play the role of the Elf King."

Almost as soon as Chen Cheng left.

Peter instructed the assistant director.

He is now eager to confirm the role of the Elf King.

Just a pity.

Although Peter was not very willing to use a Chinese actor.

Despite Peter, he auditioned one extremely outstanding actor after another.

But finally.

When their audition was over.

The scene where Chen Cheng played the Elf King still deeply stimulated Peter.

"Fran, what do you think?"

Holding the photo of Chen Cheng auditioning for the role of the Elf King, Peter asked Fran, who was both the screenwriter and the producer.

Fran also looked at Chen Cheng's photo and then exclaimed.

Peter laughed.

he knows.

Fran has already given the answer.

"Okay, let's choose Chen Cheng."

Peter confirmed.

"Peter, it seems that you are not very satisfied."

Fran asked, a little surprised.

Peter said: "It's not that I'm dissatisfied. I think Chen Cheng is better than all the actors who auditioned before."

"then you?"

"Maybe it's because I haven't used many Chinese actors before, or I never thought that the elves, who are very popular in The Hobbit, would be played by a Chinese actor."

"Hahaha, Peter, if we change our thinking, maybe you will be tempted."

"Oh?"

"Do you know how the film market is doing in China?"

"Ok."

This said.

Peter felt relieved in an instant.

Although Peter is a big Hollywood director.

However, the film market in China is increasingly attracting the attention of many big Hollywood directors.

Not long ago.

Chen Cheng has several films that have generated box office revenue of over ten billion in China.

Converted into US dollars, it is nearly 2 million US dollars.

Even with $2 million in the North American market, it can still rank among the top ten.

Needless to say.

There is still a lot of room for him to grow in the Chinese market.

Put it simply.

In other words.

Give the Chinese market a few more years.

Their market share will surpass that of Hollywood.

Then.

At this time, consider using a Chinese actor.

This is an extremely wise strategy.

"Fran, you are a genius. I know why you are the producer and I just directed it."

Peter also said something.

……

of course.

Recognize this.

It's not just Fran who's the producer of The Hobbit.

He also includes "Avengers" producer Jon.

Before Jon started preparing for The Avengers, he wanted to cast a Chinese actor.

to this end.

He thought of Chen Cheng.

and.

He also invited Chen Cheng to audition for the role of the villain Loki in the play.

Chen Cheng was also somewhat surprised by the invitation from the Avengers.

He didn't expect that.

He is surprisingly popular in Hollywood.

Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be.

Although he played the protagonist in Life of Pi.

But he knew it.

Hollywood is actually very xenophobic and they don't particularly like to use Chinese actors.

But later I thought about the domestic market.

He suddenly understood.

He thinks this is a good phenomenon.

But even so.

The role of Loki is not so easy to get.

They just let Chen Cheng audition.

But it does not mean that this role belongs to Chen Cheng.

At the same time, although the character of Loki is a villain, he is both good and evil, and his popularity is extremely terrifying.

He will appear in a series of future Marvel works.

In other words.

If he takes down Loki, it means that he will almost certainly play the role of Loki in the future.

Just like Rocco, Downey Jr. who plays Iron Man.

Everything went well.

Despite the character of Loki, Chen Cheng has a series of rivals.

But with Chen Cheng's 90 points of acting skills and 7 points of charm.

The Loki played by Chen Cheng in the audition was simply the reincarnation of the evil god Loki.

And when Chen Cheng put on Loki's costume, the director of The Avengers immediately decided on Chen Cheng.

In his opinion.

Loki played by Chen Cheng.

Not only does his image perfectly match Loki's.

More importantly.

Chen Cheng exudes an extremely unique charm that makes people unforgettable after just one glance.

……

Hollywood has been busy lately.

According to media reports, several productions have been launched in Hollywood recently.

There are also many works that are about to be completed.

The filming of The Expendables 2 is said to be going very smoothly and will be wrapped up soon.

This drama not only stars Jet Li, but also a Chinese actress, Yu Nan.

But many people didn't expect it.

At this time, the media released a piece of news.

"Brothers, I heard there is a Chinese actor in the Suicide Squad."

"Yu Nan, isn't it?"

"It's not Yu Nan, nor Jet Li. I'm talking about the third Chinese actor."

"Who?"

"Chen Cheng?"

"Fuck, Chen Cheng played a role in the Suicide Squad?"

"Yes."

"Well, with Chen Cheng's strength, this is no problem at all."

Such news made many domestic fans excited.

But it seems quite normal when you think about it.

If we talk about the person who is doing the best in Hollywood right now, it is undoubtedly Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng is not just a producer.

He is also an extremely good actor.

It's just that he rarely appears on camera.

But almost every time he appears, he brings a series of wonderful roles to the audience.

Like the young Pi.

It's normal that Sylvester Stallone, the producer of The Expendables, would think of Chen Cheng.

"I just don't know what Chen Cheng's role is like?"

"I don't know, I'm looking forward to it... I feel that the role played by Chen Cheng should be very interesting. Otherwise, there is no need for Chen Cheng to play the role."

"I think so too. Chen Cheng has great power in Hollywood. Some directors and producers will give him face." Many people chatted.

But about Hollywood.

What is currently attracting the most attention from the world is not The Expendables 2.

Although the Expendables performed well before.

But the global box office of less than $3 million made The Expendables lose a lot of its luster.

There are two films that everyone is most looking forward to.

One is called The Avengers.

One is called The Hobbit.

Let’s talk about the Avengers first.

The Avengers is a professional alliance in Marvel Comics.

Put it simply.

That is the alliance of heroes.

The alliance has Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America... and so on.

The reason for forming such an alliance.

That is, it is difficult for a group of superheroes to deal with their competitors with a single ability.

Such as the first villain in the Avengers, Loki.

As the first film to be adapted into a movie of Avengers.

Previously, many Marvel works, including Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America... and other single hero works were released.

In a work like The Avengers that brings together a group of superheroes, he has attracted the attention of thousands of people just by his appearance.

"Finally, we've waited until the Avengers."

"Yeah, I've been watching a single hero before, now I want to see who's stronger between Iron Man and the Hulk?"

"I want to see it too, but that evil god Loki is too awesome."

Many people were talking about it.

of course.

Except for the Avengers.

The attention paid to The Hobbit is no less than that of The Avengers.

even.

Even more than that.

after all.

The Lord of the Rings series is truly too classic.

The trilogy grossed over $30 billion, making The Lord of the Rings on par with Titanic and Avatar.

Although the box office of Lord of the Rings is not as good as Titanic and Avatar.

But his influence may not be inferior to these two films.

A prequel to The Lord of the Rings.

As the official chapter of The Lord of the Rings.

As a super director, Peter directed the film himself.

As soon as the Hobbit announced his name, he sparked another round of discussion in Middle-earth.

"I don't know if The Hobbit can create a miracle like The Lord of the Rings."

"It's possible. Same production, same director, same story... Nothing is impossible."

"It is said that there is also a character called Elf King in The Hobbit."

"Who is the Elf King? The Elf Prince?"

"No, the Elf King is the Elf Prince's father."

"Oh, okay... Is the Elf King more handsome than the Elf Prince?"

"I don't know... I heard they are currently auditioning, but they haven't confirmed who will play the Elf King yet."

"I am very much looking forward to seeing who will play the Elf King."

……

There is some delay in the news from Hollywood to China.

Although many domestic actors have gone to Hollywood to develop their careers.

But after all, it is still too little.

The circle is still dominated by the domestic entertainment circle.

However, the domestic entertainment industry has been a bit cold recently.

Especially after Chen Cheng's work "Lost on Journey 2" ended, it became even colder.

Or.

Actually it’s not cold.

Mainly after watching "Lost on Journey 2", I found that the box office of other works was only million or million or million.

Many people really feel bored.

Their box office has reached 13 billion, but you only have million or million, or or million, which is just a fraction of Chen Cheng's.

Do you have the nerve to hang around here?
This made many professionals in the circle extremely depressed.

They are also extremely conflicted.

They felt that they had come at the right time.

Because the domestic film market is rising rapidly.

This gave everyone hope.

But they also feel that this is an unfortunate era.

because.

They met Chen Cheng.

……

"Alas, I still like Chen Cheng's movies."

"Yeah, no matter the movies he made in Hollywood or in China, they are all extremely awesome."

"It seems that Chen Cheng has taken on a few more movies in Hollywood."

"What drama?"

“I heard it’s The Hobbit and The Avengers.”

"Fuck, don't scare me."

Many domestic fans feel that this is fake news.

but……

A few days later.

However, two stills of Chen Cheng were exposed in the media.

One of them is from "The Hobbit" and it is the Elf King.

The other one is Loki in The Avengers.

Two roles.

All played by Chen Cheng.

……

Hollywood is moving at a decent pace.

Although not as fast as Chen Cheng in filming.

After the auditions for "The Hobbit" and "The Avengers" were completed, the start-up ceremony was held soon.

In "The Hobbit", the Elf King played by Chen Cheng does not have many scenes.

He only has a few lines.

According to the previous life.

The Elf King only appears on screen for a few seconds in the first part of The Hobbit.

But even if it was only for a few dozen seconds, countless people around the world still remembered this Elf King.

Chen Cheng was also prepared for this.

and so.

When Chen Cheng appeared in front of everyone with a crown on his head and a scepter in his hand.

Everyone in the crew believed that Chen Cheng was the real Elf King.

It only took an hour.

Chen Cheng's role as the Elf King has already been completed.

Chen Cheng shook hands with Peter and left the crew.

but.

On the other hand, the role of Loki is not so easy.

Loki is an important villain in the Avengers.

He has a lot of scenes.

According to the plan in the notice, Chen Cheng will have to shoot for at least ten days.

……

"Donny, I heard that Loki is played by a Chinese actor."

"I heard that he is Chen...the protagonist of Life of Pi."

"Oh, is that the boy?"

"Yes."

The Avengers.

At this time, a group of superhero actors arrived at the crew early.

There was no scene for them at the moment, so they were just chatting.

"Maybe the director chose the wrong role. I know that boy has good acting skills, but he is really suitable for Loki. You know, Loki is a god."

"I do not know either."

Several other superhero actors made some complaints.

"Don't say that. Chen Cheng is not only an actor, he is also a producer."

"I know... but everyone has their own specialties. He should be making movies instead of being an actor. I don't think he is a good actor."

“I heard that the producer is considering the Chinese market.”

"Haha...are you going to give up your principles for the sake of the Chinese market?"

"I don't know, but... let's check later. He's in the dressing room."

Everyone stared at the dressing room.

After a while.

Chen Cheng's makeup is done.

This makeup was designed by Chen Cheng.

Looked in the mirror.

In the mirror, there is a gentleman dressed in British style.

But if you think he is a gentleman, you are wrong.

Chen Cheng smiled at the mirror.

In the mirror, a hint of evil continued to spread.

It's not all just evil though.

Because this makeup is so cool.

So even if Chen Cheng just smiled evilly, he seemed to have unparalleled magic.

When Chen Cheng appeared in front of everyone with the scepter of mind in his hand.

The superhero actors subconsciously took a step back.

Then they reacted.

But at this time they looked embarrassed.

They suddenly found out.

The filming of this play has not started yet.

They were already overwhelmed by Chen Cheng's image and temperament.
