Chapter 190: The New Female Top Streamer Who Rises at the Beginning of the Year [Subscribe]

A little after 1:3 PM on January rd.

Old Li appeared on the 15th floor of Andingmen Time Building. After briefly sorting out his official business, he checked the Penguin Office news reported by his secretary.

He then instructed his secretary to let Qin Lan, Tang Wei, and Guo Zhenni, who were waiting outside, come in to see Wang Zuxian and Guan Zhilin.

This is a screening for the Chinese actress in (The Hangover 1).

After a few people came in, Lao Li was simple and polite, letting them choose what to drink. The young actors were still restrained and nervous and did not dare to move.

Rosamund Kwan and Joey Wong walked to the tea bar to choose drinks.

Old Li looked at Qin Lan, who was clearly in poor health. "How's your English? Let's have a few simple English conversations. Describe Tang Wei and Jenny's outfits and fashion styles in English. Is it up to par?"

View target: Qin Lan

Acting, (73/100).

Healthy, (62/100).

English, (61/100).

……

When Qin Lan spoke in English, Lao Li complained in his heart that three and a half months ago, this girl's English level was only 51.

I have made rapid progress in these three and a half months.

As long as the number starts in the 6s, it basically means that there is no problem in normal communication.

Qin Lan started learning English, and it's almost been a year? That's fine.

Look, she has taken such trouble to get her health down to 62.

Wait for her to give some compliments.

Li Wenyu looked at Rosamund Kwan and Joey Wong who were approaching with trays, "Could you two ladies also say a few words in English?"

"The role in the new project isn't very important. Even if you're chosen, your part won't be that big. But I'm still looking forward to this new movie making $100 million at the US box office."

"The global projection is $200 million. This is a Michael Jackson comedy film that's designed to replicate Jackie Chan's Rush Hour series."

"Whoever wins will play the role of the older sister of the second male lead, the Chinese protagonist."

Warner Bros. Pictures wants to buy the theatrical distribution and remake rights of "Perfect Strangers" and then make a US version.

I want to use this bundling condition to negotiate with him about sharing the box office revenue of (The Hangover) in the United States and Europe.

Between 10% and 20%, any 1% is much more expensive than the remake rights of Perfect Strangers.

He even didn't mind selling the remake rights to "My Love from the Star" and "Dark Glory" just to give "The Hangover" a few more percentage points.

Aren't Warner Bros. TV and movies the same division? They can talk to each other's headquarters.

As for the God of Medicine? ?
Li Wenyu's Time has acquired the filming rights for (Dallas Buyers Club).

The Hollywood studios, both large and small, that previously owned the filming rights were afraid of paying too much and have been unable to officially launch the project.

The Chinese version of "Dying to Survive" grossed 5.46 million yuan in mainland China and 6.91 million yuan nationwide.

Converted to 8100 million US dollars box office! !
Does this set an alternative benchmark for Hollywood's major studios?
Anyway, during previous negotiations, Warner Bros. Pictures had already been eager to co-produce Dallas Buyers Club with Time.

As long as I can get a big enough share of The Hangover box office revenue.

Lao Li doesn't mind taking a small loss on other projects.

As she spoke, Rosamund Kwan shared teacups with Tang Wei and Guo Zhenni with a gentle smile, and said in English, "You girls have really caught up with the good times."

"If I hadn't been treated like a hen house by the traditional wealthy clubs in Hong Kong and Macau, my resume wouldn't have been so bad in my life."

"But like I said on the show, I've never taken the initiative to destroy anyone's family in my life. I've always been passive."

"Mr. Li, I had a wild idea when I wanted to spend 100 million to keep you for a month. It wasn't to ruin our relationship, it was just to vent my anger."

Joey Wong, “…”

The virtuous lady looked at Rosamund Kwan and gave her a thumbs-up. She smiled and said in English, "I found that the two little girls, Tang Wei and Jenny, didn't understand."

"Qin Lan understood it easily. Why is someone this old blushing?"

Old Li was slightly speechless, "Sister Xian, you've lived in Massachusetts for so many years, and your English isn't as good as Sister Lin's?"

That’s right, Wang Zuxian’s English is not as good as Guan Zhilin’s.

Only slightly better than Qin Lan.

On the other hand, Rosamund Kwan’s original lines in the 2001 film Big Shot were quite good in English.

Now Sister Guan’s English name starts with 7, and Joey Wong’s starts with 6.

Wang Zuxian laughed awkwardly, "I mostly interacted with people in Mandarin and Cantonese there, so I didn't really need to express myself in English."

Lao Li nodded and said, "Okay, I don't have to worry about your acting skills for this role, you can all take it. It depends on the English. I will give you a single script and go back to practice your English."

"Once we have decided on the second male lead, let's see how your performance turns out."

After a few brief and polite conversations, he let the women except Qin Lan leave first.

A lot of English was spoken during this process. Tang Wei and Guo Zhenni were both confused, so Lao Li asked Wang Zuxian to tell them after she left.

The door closed again, and Lao Li smiled and said, "You've been preparing for the English exam for a year, and it's not bad. This movie role is just okay too."

“Not nearly as important as your 2 Broke Girls.”

"But if you do well and break $2 million at the box office in Europe and America, it will be a very important achievement for your resume, understand?"

Qin Lan nodded repeatedly, "I understand. Thank you, boss, for giving me this opportunity. I will definitely continue to work hard."

Old Li waved, "Come here and let me take your pulse."

In order to study English intensively, Huang Xiaoming reduced his health to 66 points in just half a year.

Even though Junior Sister Lingling had lost weight and her health score had dropped to 69 points, she still had a series of diseases.

Qin Lan is 26 years old, still young, but she has made herself look almost under 60.

It was a perfect shooting period more than two months ago, and her condition wasn't this serious.

After a while, he took the patient's pulse and asked some questions, including looking at the tongue coating, etc.

When Old Li withdrew his hand, he said speechlessly, "I'll give you a prescription, and you can find out how to make the medicine yourself."

"You're a talented person. Anemia, endocrine disorders, hypoglycemia, and gastric ulcers. If you continue to suffer for a few months, you'll definitely develop mild anorexia."

"When you leave, send the beauty recipe I gave to Rosamund Kwan and Joey Wong. It's mainly for removing wrinkles, moisturizing and whitening the skin, and increasing skin elasticity and vitality. It's a medicinal diet."

"You can take it, but if you want to learn how to make medicinal food, you should go to a Chinese medicine practitioner on your own. The recipe cannot be disclosed. Can you do that?"

Qin Lan was so embarrassed that she wanted to deduct the three-bedroom apartment. She thanked Lao Li repeatedly and praised the big boss.

She didn't expect that she would soon develop anorexia. It's a bit scary.

Fennie Yuen’s anorexia is the best example. She even stopped having her menstrual period in her 30s.

After Li Wenyu finished writing the recipe, he waved his hand and asked Qin Lan to leave.

The roles he pushed to several female stars this time were not the ones that already existed in (The Hangover 1), but were the second male lead roles played by Chinese actors such as Huang Xiaoming or Deng Xiao.

The new characters that were derived are minor supporting roles that are insignificant.

It’s like Bingbing originally played a supporting role in Marvel or other series!

The second male lead, who is Chinese, has a fiancée. She appears for a few minutes and has quite a few screen times. She is one of the top three female characters in The Hangover.

But the fiancée's character is terrible. How terrible is it? She tells the second male lead that she accidentally got drunk at a cruise party and was confronted by a bartender. But she insists it was an accident after drinking too much, and the bartender was just rubbing against her. She has obsessive-compulsive disorder and would never let a stranger give her hundreds of millions of hot money.

She also uses various PUA methods on the second male lead and is extremely controlling. She requires the male lead to call and report regularly when he goes out, and she also calls to check on the room at the hotel he stays in, etc.

What's even more outrageous is that at the wedding party of the second male lead's college friend and best friend, she didn't find out all the details about the second male lead's bachelor party schedule before the wedding.

In the middle of a happy and cheerful wedding dance, she made a scene like a shrew.

A second male lead fiancée like this? ? Giving it to a Chinese actress is really a bit disastrous.

It would be better to just find a white woman to play the role.

The second male lead also has a certain rivalry with a female supporting character who gets drunk and has a lot of fun in Las Vegas, and then gets married and gets a marriage certificate there.

Theoretically, that female supporting character is also among the top three female characters!

The original trajectory is for the most beautiful white woman in the whole film, but it is not suitable for a Chinese actress, after all, the female protagonists in American films have children.

Playfully marrying the second male lead is not suitable for a Chinese actress even though there are many frontal shots. This is a problem of international image.

Lao Li used his screenwriting skills to write a character of a biological sister or younger sister, who makes a phone call to the second male lead during the narrative.

At the wedding party dance at the end, the second male lead finally dumped his bitch fiancée with the blessing of real people. Long live being single, just dance.

The whole scene only lasts a few minutes.

Just like he said, just to get some experience!!
It's not just the few people mentioned above who are alternatives. He Qing, who is adapting to the environment in South Korea and learning about the South Korean era, has also sent an email to ask her to learn English.

As long as she can pass the language test, he doesn't mind recommending He Qing to play the role of the older sister.

Also, there's a clip in The Hangover 1 that pays homage to 21, where the third male lead is also the groom's brother-in-law.

Using his superb mathematical skills, he won more than 8 US dollars in the casino in a short period of time.

And 21 was released in 2008? This movie is based on a true story.

The prototype is Kevin Ma, who relied on his super card counting ability to sweep casinos across the United States with a group of students in the 90s.

Lao Ma and his group of geniuses were forced to retire by the more technologically advanced reshuffle level.

When filming the movie, just ask Lao Ma to buy the adaptation rights.

…………

A few hours later, Lao Li was working when he heard a knock on the door.

He called out, "Come in!" Xiao Tong pushed the door open, looked around, and quickly walked behind the desk. "Brother, is there anyone in the lounge?"

While asking questions, she sat directly on the throne.

Whether there are people or not, she is determined to eat the elephant.

This is the time period after Li Wenyu went to South Korea for a few days and then returned to his hometown to celebrate the New Year in advance.

After Xiao Tong performed a gorgeous song and dance show with great emotion, she complained with sweat dripping down her face, "I feel that (Wulin Wai Zhuan) has the hope of starting filming in the first half of the year."

"Last time I watched Li Xiao's acting at a house across from the Beijing Film Academy. She was passable and didn't distract the audience too much."

Signed on October 2003, 10.

It's been 14 months.

Yan Neduo has been taking Li Wei to the reality drama crew to broaden her life experience and get in touch with the people for two months. It is normal for her to have some breakthroughs and improvements.

While giving Xiao Tong a massage, Lao Li sighed, "If you want to cultivate a group of seedlings, you can only do it step by step."

Two months ago, Li Wei's acting skills were (51/100), and he has been immersed in the role for a year.

Performed at a passing level? Normal.

Xiao Tong stared at Lao Li and said, "Don't just do it, praise me with sweet words."

Pang Bing has been eating too much these days, and she, Alexandra, and Sister Axin still need sponsorship funds.

Old Li also follows the "True Fragrance" principle. "Squid Game is scheduled to be broadcast on January 1th, the first day of the twelfth lunar month, on Beijing TV. You're really going to be a big hit."

"At the beginning of this year, you are the new generation of rising female top star."

…………

In the next few days, (Perfect Strangers) will continue to have a hot box office offensive.

Even if this is still the (Crazy Stone) model, roadshows will be run throughout the working days, and there will be more explosions on weekends.

That's enough.

The promotion of (Squid Game) has begun on Weibo.

There's no need to try too hard, as Deng Xiaoping plays the leading male role, which is important for the Chinese market and audiences who are still in the early stages of the long aftermath of (Goblin).

Countless Deng Xiaoping fans are celebrating and can't wait to see his new work.

This is just like when Goblin was first aired, its starting viewership rating of 22% crushed all other normal annual ratings champions.

Lao Deng only needs to interact with the Weibo versions inside and outside the Great Firewall, release updates on the official Weibo of the crew, and interact with Beijing TV.

The enthusiasm it caused was huge enough.

Countless people were eager to get to No. 10 to watch the premiere.

It was in this situation that on the morning of January 1, Wang Zixuan and Zhao Ji arrived outside the headquarters building of Time Media. Standing in the square, the two looked around.

Zhao Ji urged, "Call her. Sister Tong is willing to take us with her. We're so lucky."

This is because Tong Liya felt that the start date of (Wulin Waijia) was getting closer, so she planned interview benefits for her two roommates.

The sitcom "Wulin Wai Zhuan" has 60 episodes and there are many guest roles available.

Including some characters that take on a lot of weight in a single episode.

Xiao Tong arranged for them an interview opportunity for the role of Guo Furong's maid Xiaoqing.

Wang Zixuan excitedly grabbed her phone and texted, "I haven't even qualified to watch Squidward Games yet. It's only going to air in a few days. It's so exciting."

"After the interview fails, say something nice and ask her to let us stay here a little longer so we can watch the Squid game in advance?"

They are only freshmen in college and are definitely in trainee mode, and have only been in this position for less than half a year.

I can only express my gratitude for the resources I have, and I am lucky to be Xiao Tong’s roommate.

Can you get access to the private leader's base like the Time Headquarters right from the start?
While the two were texting and waiting for a response, they saw a figure getting out of a car at the building's awning. Zhao Ji shook Wang Zixuan's arm and said, "Isn't that Yang Mi?"

"Has she finished filming that idol drama (It Started with a Kiss) with the Wanwan team? She went to great lengths to get herself under the knife. It looks really good after using technology."

Wang Zixuan glanced at it and then lowered her head and muttered, "Stop gossiping outside, or you'll end up causing trouble."

…………

A moment later, the two female college students were taken into the building by Tong Liya's assistant and arrived at Tong's personal office on the 12th floor.

As soon as the two of them walked in, before they had time to greet Sister Tong, they were stunned by a little girl of about twelve or thirteen years old.

Xiao Tong smiled and gestured to her assistant to make some tea. She said, "Come and sit down. This is my fellow countryman, Nazha. During the national auditions, she and Li Wei prepared for Mo Xiaobei together."

"Although Nazha was not selected, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

"It's the same with you. Even if you fail the interview with Xiaoqing, you can wait for the next time."

Nazha happily greeted her two new friends.

She tried for more than a year but failed, so of course she felt disappointed. However, she was able to see Li Wenyu every once in a while and receive encouragement from him, so she remained very stable.
