This star is going to the moon

Chapter 49: Encountering a person with connections, but unable to defeat him despite all his efforts
Just as Yan Xinxin said, the director of "The Longest Day in Chang'an" attaches great importance to online promotion, and indeed a large number of people have discussed it online.

However, compared to other roles that require more acting skills and are older, "Li Bi", which is competed for by many popular stars, is indeed more discussed.

[Wu Fan has the best chance of signing. Although his acting is the worst, he is indeed the most famous and top star!]

[No, Wu Fan's aura is too arrogant, like a spirited young man. He's not suitable for playing an ancient child prodigy. Lu Han is just as famous as him, and his looks and temperament are more suitable!]

[Obviously, Yang Yang is the most suitable candidate. Wu Fanqian and Lu Han combined have less film and television credits than Yang Yang alone. He debuted as "Jia Baoyu," so his costume acting skills are definitely better than theirs!]

If we talk about strong acting, it has to be Rowoon. His acting is definitely the best among the popular stars, and he's also quite famous. Moreover, he's a top student in aerospace. Is there anyone more suitable than him to play the role of a young celebrity who becomes famous and is knowledgeable?

[Who are Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo?]

[Their fame is much lower than the previous ones, and one is a singer and the other a street dancer. They have only played small supporting roles before. How dare they dare to compete for the leading role?]

[Your information is out of date. The director personally praised Yang Qianxi. He is the most suitable candidate for Li Bi! ]

[Is that Yang Qianxi, the solo star from TF Boys? Isn't he only in his teens? How can he play an ancient scholar in his twenties?]

[Yeah, the TF Boys he's in are a singing and dancing group, right? I've seen the TV dramas and movies they acted in during their group days, and they were so awkward, with absolutely no acting skills...]

This kind of discussion is usually initiated by ordinary netizens, but it will soon attract fans of various popular stars, and then the relatively harmonious discussion atmosphere will be broken.

However, this kind of online discussion can only bring popularity to "Chang'an", but it cannot decide who will be chosen for "Chang'an". Its casting plan is still in full swing.

Rowoon was sure he had given it his best shot, and could see the surprised expressions of the casting team, including the director.

Lu Yun felt that they should know that he had good acting skills. After all, whether it was from hearing about or watching "Wolf Warrior 2", Lu Yun already had the reputation of being a "good actor".

They probably didn’t expect the acting to be even better when they saw it live!
This is actually not surprising. Lu Yun's acting skills have been improving rapidly. When he was filming "Wolf Warrior 2", his acting skills had just reached level 4, and now his acting skills are almost reaching the mid-level 4.

Unfortunately, unlike in "Wolf Warrior 2", the director did not approve him to play the role on the spot during the audition for "Chang'an".

Perhaps this is the difference in importance between the lead actor and the third male lead, or perhaps... it was indeed already decided.

However, after Lu Yun finished the audition, he no longer cared about it and continued with his previous work, leaving it to Liu Chun to follow up.

At the end of September, "Wolf Warrior 9" was taken off the screen, which marked another change in the world line.

Because in the previous life, "Wolf Warrior 2" was released for three months, but in this life it was only released for two months.

However, compared with the box office of more than 56.8 billion in the previous life, this time the box office results reached more than 58.4 billion!

When "Wolf Warrior 2" surpassed the box office of "The Mermaid", there was no doubt that it would become the number one box office in the history of domestic films. People were curious about how much it could surpass?

The result is more than 24 billion!

These box office surpassings alone have almost caught up with this year's domestic "former box office champion" "Fast & Furious 8".

Its total domestic box office is 26.7 billion.

Now, with a box office of 58.4 billion yuan, "Wolf Warrior 2" is not only the No. 100 domestic box office this year and the No. 50 domestic box office in film history, but also broke into the global movie box office TOP, ranking th!
This is the first domestic film to enter this ranking!

And it rushed to the middle position in one go, instead of squeezing into the end.

The box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeded 58 billion, which had a considerable impact on the domestic market, not to mention the "Wolf Warrior ptsd" that broke the defense.

People's confidence in domestic films is also increasing!
"Wolf Warrior 2 is a hands-on guide to making blockbuster films. The boom in domestic films is coming!"

"This year, there's such a wonderful movie as 'Wolf Warrior 2'. I can't even imagine how wonderful domestic films will be in the next few years!"

"Our domestic films can finally compete with Hollywood!"

Lu Yun was a little confused after seeing these remarks. The world line in this life kept changing, and he didn't know what the future would be like, but in the previous life, domestic films did prosper... for a few years.

Later it started again.

But it can indeed compete with Hollywood.

Of course, it’s not because domestic films have made great progress, but because Hollywood... has also made some progress.

Fortunately, Lu Yun’s dream in this life is the sea of ​​stars. His main business is the research and development of aerospace technology, and movies are just side jobs.

Of course, it is also a source of initial funding.

《战狼2》下映之后不会立刻把票房分成打过来，但不妨碍启明星公司的会计们先算算多少钱。“路哥的票房分成是55亿~65亿的阶段1.5%，那么58.429亿乘以1.5%就是……”

"hiss--"

"More than 8764!"

"Then Lu Ge's 6135% is over 2639 million, and the company's % is over million!"

"And Brother Lu, this isn't a salary, it's a share of the profits, so the tax is only 20%!"

"Ghost, I didn't expect Lu Ge to earn so much in his first year at the company. Aren't other celebrities still in their training phase in their first year?"

"It seems that none of our previous stars have ever earned so much money at once. I wonder what Brother Lu will do with so much money?"

What?
Of course, it was invested in aerospace companies.

Moreover, Lu Yun didn't pay much attention to the fact that "Wolf Warrior 2" was taken off the screen, but was paying attention to the latest starship design that Ma Yilong announced at the 68th International Astronautical Congress, which was not yet called "Starship".

Forget about the original 12-meter diameter, it has shrunk to 9 meters, but once it is built, it will still be the most powerful rocket in history.

In addition, the "Starlink" project was announced, and tens of thousands of artificial satellites in orbit can provide network services without blind spots around the world.

It plans to launch two experimental satellites in February next year.

After seeing this, Lu Yun felt that he should also come up with a similar plan, because it was useless to just make the rocket reusable, he had to create a huge demand for rocket launches.

Currently, there are only dozens of rocket launches and hundreds of satellites launched each year in the world, which cannot meet the demand for large quantities of recoverable and reusable rockets.

We must launch a super-connected constellation project starting with 10,000 satellites!
And track resources are also very precious.

If the other side launches tens of thousands of satellites and occupies all the precious orbital resources, China will be in a very passive position.

But there is no need to rush this. Lu Yun, who has been reborn, knows that the national level has begun to consider this matter, so it is most important for him to first get the Wanhu rocket ready for its maiden flight next year.

After all, it is impossible to use disposable rockets to launch tens of thousands of satellites, as that would result in huge losses.

As time entered October, the auditions for various roles in "Chang'an" gradually ended, and the interview panel began to discuss the candidate for "Li Bi".

In fact, the situation is very clear, everyone knows that Lu Yun is the most suitable!
He is a top student himself, and he even wore makeup during the audition that day. His ancient costume look was very consistent with Li Bi's temperament.

The most important thing is that he is famous and his acting skills are even better!

Completely crush other competitors.

So when the assistant director inexplicably suggested Yang Qianxi, he was immediately refuted.

The casting director in particular has the most opinions.

"Yang Qianxi is no good. His acting skills are not even as good as Rowe, let alone compared to other popular actors."

"And he's too young. He's 10 years younger than the original character. Even though he looks older, there's still a gap."

"The lines are not good either. The half-classical and half-vernacular lines come out of his mouth stumbling, and the intonation is wrong. It's very sticky and there are bubbling sounds. Sometimes it's hard to understand."

"The director's praise of him was just a courtesy within the industry, don't take it seriously..."

"Cough cough~"

Before he could finish, the director coughed and interrupted him. He looked at the atmosphere and said, "All actors have strengths and weaknesses. We should fully develop the strengths of the actors and cover up the weaknesses. Only in this way can we produce better works."

"I think we should vote by raising our hands. Please raise your hands if you agree that Yang Qianxi will play Li Bi."

After the director finished speaking, he raised his hand first, followed by the producer, the production representative, and several assistants.

“Okay, what about those who support Lu Yun?”

"..."

Seeing that these "three big mountains" all supported Yang Qianxi, the casting director, screenwriter, styling designer, costume designer and others who were "pure workers" present didn't know what was going on.

What the hell are you raising your hand for?
　Thanks to "Jingbao's old father" for the 1000-point reward~~
