Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 301 The Impact Has Just Begun

Egg felt similarly.

As a president, he doesn't like to argue with others, and the protagonist's skin color is not even a problem in his opinion at first.

But this project cannot be done without Chen's approval.

Iger didn't want to make things worse, he thought about the other party's mention of postponing it to next year.

"Why push it to next year? Do you think there will be any major changes by next year?"

Then I can only take a gamble, Chen Linfeng thought.

“Yes, I hope to consider whether I can be the protagonist after Sherlock Holmes is broadcast next year.

If the situation has changed significantly by then, I hope Disney will reconsider, and if the show doesn't make any waves, I won't say anything more about the protagonist. "

When Robert Egger heard Chen Linfeng's words, he didn't react for a while.

"What is this...Sherlock Holmes you're talking about?"

After all, as the president, he would not pay too much attention to trivial matters other than key projects.

Chen Linfeng explained his cooperation with Yingguang.

"A TV show?"

Iger murmured to himself, "This drama has given you so much confidence?"

He didn't know what the drama was about, so he naturally wouldn't make any rash judgments, but considering the importance of calming the other party's emotions, he agreed.

"Okay, I promise you, let's just leave it like this for now."

Robert Iger himself has no preference for the candidate for the leading role. As long as he can help the company make money, everything is fine.

Therefore, if Chen really meets the qualifications at that time, it would not be a bad idea to have the original author and a Chinese person who fits the setting play the leading role to please the fans of the original work.

After returning to the company, he immediately asked someone to collect relevant information about Sherlock Holmes:

This is also a series of novels written by Chen, and is based on Sherlock Holmes.

The male lead is Chinese and will be played by Chen himself. Filming will start in the second half of this year and is expected to be broadcast next year.

This kid really has his style.

It was not easy for Ying Guang to agree.

Robert Iger threw the documents on the table and said that was the end of the matter for now.

Although I am not optimistic about what Chen can gain from a TV series.

But being able to use this as an excuse to leave the other party speechless is a good thing.

……

Things are over in the beautiful country.

Chen Linfeng did not return to China directly, but first went to France to visit the crew of "The Chinese Zodiac" who were filming there, and his girlfriend.

Speaking of this, we have to sigh at Van Loong's international influence.

In "The Chinese Zodiac", France is clearly not a very pleasing character, and it can even be said to have a villainous tone.

But they were able to obtain the consent of the French government to shoot the film in Paris and Chantilly Castle.

It is roughly equivalent to foreigners shooting a film in China's Summer Palace, which is indeed a grand occasion.

When Chen Linfeng arrived, they were studying the structure of the castle, mainly to ensure that no damage would be caused to the castle.

Fang Long received news in advance that Xiao Chen would come to visit the set, and brought people to greet him.

"You really made big news this time. I've been in Paris for a few days and many people have asked about you. They are all very curious about you."

"Haha, Brother Fang Long is praising me."

Fang Long said seriously, "No, this is the truth. Some time ago, when I met with some officials in Paris, one of them asked me: 'Is Chen so popular in China? My two children are asking me to buy them "Infinite World" as a gift.'

I said no, Chen is more popular in China."

What he said was both amusing and sincere, leaving Chen Linfeng speechless for a moment.

It's rare to see Brother Fang Long praising someone so much.

At this time, everyone walked into the castle. Liu Qianqian was looking at the paintings on the wall with her hands behind her back. When she turned around, she saw that it was Chen Linfeng and Fang Long.

Her expression instantly became interesting.

"Xiaofeng, why...why are you here?"

"I'm here to visit the set, specially to see you."

We met in this foreign country after not seeing each other for another month or two.

This is such a huge blow to couples who are in love.

Liu Qianqian was a little eager and really wanted to hug him, but after looking at the people around her, she forced herself to restrain herself.

Instead, it was Chen Linfeng who took the initiative to hug him.

"Aren't you afraid of being found out?"

"Know what?" Chen Linfeng said with a smile, "I just can't help myself when I see my good friend."

Sure enough, no one around cared.

Seeing that the boss had something to talk about, the others tactfully dispersed to do their own things.

Fang Long normally cannot show weakness in front of his brothers, but it is a little different when facing Chen Linfeng.

He complained, "I didn't feel it before, but this time when I was reshooting this kind of high-intensity action scene, I really felt the impact of age. The actions that I could do easily before have become difficult now."

Fang Long talked about how he suffered a serious injury to his back during a shoot where he had to drill through a picture frame.

This made him very depressed.

It's not that the injury is that serious.

There have been cases before where people went into shock and almost died.

But this time is different.

Such actions were common in the past and would not cause any problems.

"I really feel like this is my last 'Vang Loong action movie'."

Fang Long said with a painful look on his face, "Xiao Chen, I have thought about it. I will try to transform in the direction you mentioned."

Chen Linfeng asked in surprise, "Brother, why don't you try the literary drama route?" This was the content that had been determined before, why did it suddenly change?

"The play that has been prepared will definitely be filmed, but..."

Fang Long smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe I still can't let go of the action genre. I've been shooting this kind of drama all my life, and it's a bit difficult for me to start from scratch."

Chen Linfeng understood that this kind of thinking was normal, as everyone has path dependence.

However, having said that, the situation is definitely not that simple.

The biggest variable here is himself.

Perhaps Fang Long had hesitated in his previous life, but at that time there was no one with the right status and position to show him another way, so he could only figure it out on his own.

Today, Chen Linfeng has a clear idea. As a Golden Lion Award-winning director, he has enough weight. Now he is taking another big step towards success.

Considering that Xiao Chen has no failure history, it is reasonable for Fang Long to want to get on board early.

"That's fine, but we need to schedule this. My plans for this year are full. Next year..."

Chen Linfeng thought of the agreement he made with Robert Egger.

"It should be possible in the first half of next year. I'll discuss it with Sister Mei first, and then I'll confirm the time with Brother Fang Long. What do you think?"

"Yeah, no problem."

Fang Long finished talking about his own things and left decisively so as not to disturb the couple.

He was experienced and had long seen that there was something wrong between the two.

Chen Linfeng and Xixi were like newlyweds after a long separation, so he simply asked for a leave for her and then had a "long chat" in the hotel.

There was one more time until the next morning.

After Liu Qianqian finished washing up in the morning, her face was still flushed, and she was obviously very happy chatting.

Chen Linfeng came to France not only to visit his class leader and chat, but also to meet Professor An.

Although Sissi's father was separated from Liu Xiaoli, he was obviously always concerned about his daughter's situation.

On New Year's Day at the beginning of the year and in March after the New Year, the parents of both sides met once.

Liu Xiaoli did not hide this matter, but informed Professor An.

Naturally, he also wanted to meet the person who dared to take his own little cabbage.

The three agreed to meet at a cafe.

Professor An arrived first, and then he saw his daughter coming in with a man, behaving very intimately, and his heart ached.

However, his profession doesn't reveal anything from the outside, and he even seems amiable.

"This must be Xiao Chen, I've heard a lot about you in Paris."

"Hello Uncle An, I'm Xixi's boyfriend, Chen Linfeng."

I know! So can you please stop being so close to my daughter!
"Haha, you are indeed a handsome man. I heard that you and Xixi have known each other for a long time?"

"Yes, I had just returned to China not long ago. At that time, he came to visit the crew, and then we exchanged contact information." Liu Qianqian answered quickly.

Huh? Sissi was only 15 years old at that time!
Professor An's face froze, "How old is Xiao Chen this year?"

"I'm just 20 years old. I'm a few months younger than Sissi."

Oh, misunderstanding cleared up.

Chen Linfeng felt something was strange. He always felt that the other party was not in a good mood. But when he listened to him speak, he felt that he was very friendly. It might be an illusion.

Professor An then asked Chen Linfeng a lot of questions, mostly about his family situation and the details of their relationship.

I didn't ask much about Chen Linfeng's career.

The overall attitude seemed good, but every time Liu Qianqian spoke up or sided with her boyfriend, Chen Linfeng would feel a chill.

After so many times, he was not stupid, so he naturally noticed it.

It seems that the father-in-law is still unhappy.

So who allowed you to call me father-in-law! ? ?
Chen Linfeng understood very well how a father would feel in such a situation. After all, it was almost the same for the whole world.

He responded carefully, maintaining a cautious attitude throughout.

In the end, the conversation was successfully completed. Both sides exchanged views and there was no dispute.

At least Liu Qianqian was satisfied after watching the two finish their conversation.

After the trip to Paris, Chen Linfeng returned to China.

Interviews with some media were inevitable, especially China Central Television, which attached great importance to it and gave me an unconventional interview.

It is almost similar to the format in which the award-winning actor won the Oscar last time, and according to the program director, this time there will also be comments from some well-known writers in the industry.

Of course, it's basically all praise.

This itself can also reflect a certain attitude above.

Books sell well all over the world, which is different from other entertainment works after all.

Think about Liu Cixin in his previous life. His "Three-Body" series directly pushed him to the top of writers.

This shows how much importance the authorities attach to such matters.

During this period, the China Railway Corporation also called and mentioned Chen Linfeng's position as a liaison officer.

If nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely be promoted when the term changes.

Such outstanding achievements can no longer be limited by qualifications.

Chen Linfeng was happy to see this happen. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, at least it sounded like it made sense.

Not only that, influenced by this, this year's literary awards can also be fantasized.

Not to mention domestic awards, Disney is already vying for a series of awards in Europe and the United States.

Domestically, "Infinite World" is not very literary after all, so the traditional awards may not be able to bring it down.

However, as a work that has received wide acclaim in the industry, the novel "She" should be rewarding.

In short, the story of a long-selling physical novel is far from over after it is completed.

The influence of the "Infinite World" series has just begun.
