China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 377 "The Walking Dead" is online

When Chen Jingxing said giving Luo Chen a male lead, he was referring to "Inception".

Although the script of "Inception" is still being perfected, the preparations for the film have actually begun. The production scale of this film is large and requires shooting in multiple countries. Some of the landscapes and buildings that need to be built also need to be prepared in advance.

Casting is also a troublesome issue. Luo Chen was also a candidate for the male lead that he had considered, but Chen Jingxing had been hesitating until he visited the crew of "Black Mirror II" and saw Luo Chen's look.

Finally made up my mind.

Luochen's transformation in recent years has been relatively successful. He is 33 years old, but after all, he is an idol and is well-maintained, so he will naturally give people the feeling of a young niche. It is not against the rules to take on idol dramas and romance films.

and.

Although Luo Chen has been striving for transformation since "Fatal Identity", he does not have the courage of Hei Gu, and has not really directly destroyed the advantage of his idol face, so he usually attends commercial activities, or shoots videos and essence.

The photo editing still shows the image of a young niche.

Luochen plays the founder of an artificial intelligence technology company this time. His age is set at 35, and after putting on makeup and a beard, he looks quite mature.

This dispelled Chen Jingxing's last worry.

I have to say that Chen Jingxing is indeed nostalgic for his old love subconsciously.

"Inception?"

Of course, after a lot of media analysis afterwards, they all believed that the main reason was the loss of "The Great Sage". Not only did the two movies conflict with their themes, but the reputation of the animated film "The Great Sage" completely surpassed that of "The Demon". This is a great pairing for "The Great Sage".

For "Subjugating the Demon", the blow was too great.

Therefore, we can only interact on WeChat, phone, and Weibo from time to time, or go to DreamWorks to visit, visit the studio, etc., to brush up on our presence.

He Yinglin is not only a fan of DreamWorks, but also a long-time fan of Luo Chen. She has liked Luo Chen since junior high school when she was still in Korea. Over the years, the madness has faded, but her love for the old idol has become deeper and deeper.

Luochen has gone from a girl's sexual fantasy to an old friend who grew up with her.

What Luochen is most jealous of is "The Matrix". A rookie can actually act in such a good script, and it's a trilogy!

He can't watch any news about Lu Hongzhe. Every time he sees news about Lu Hongzhe, endorsements, fashion magazines, and Oscars awards shows, he can't help but blush.

You must know that this movie not only has the star's support, but also has the title of sequel to "Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons". Luo Chen himself is also the brightest star in this movie. It is the focus of publicity and was even mentioned by many media before the screening.

Netizens believe that he is the number one seed in the Spring Festival, even higher than "Tang Detective II" and "Kung Fu Yoga".

Luo Chen was speechless for a moment when faced with the agent's teasing, but he quickly adjusted his weird thoughts: "Since ancient times, famous generals are like beauties, and the same is true for actors. Good directors are like emperors... they are Bole.

The cost of "Journey to the West: Conquering Monsters" is said to be 400 million, but in fact it is at least 300 million even if the water is squeezed out. Luo Chen's salary alone is more than 50 million, which is almost the same as Wang Baoqiang's salary in "Tang Detective II"

, coupled with the promotion of the Spring Festival stalls, the cost of 300 million is definitely there.

"Journey to the West" doesn't even beat "Kung Fu Yoga", which has the lowest reputation, which is really a shocking thing.

As a result, it was crushed by "Tang Detective II" and sneak attacked by the new animated film "The Return of the Great Sage". The final box office revenue was less than one billion, ranking behind "Tang Detective II", "The Great Sage" and "Kung Fu Yoga"

behind.

It was just crushed by "Tang Detective II". "Kung Fu Yoga" was also crushed, but it still got 1.2 billion in box office.

Moreover, Chen Jingxing is very quick to decide on roles. His projects have always been kept highly confidential by DreamWorks. Once they are no longer kept secret and the projects are announced, the roles will usually be decided accordingly.

However, this is not groundless. Luo Chen did not get along with the director of "Kyushu Sky City" and did have some verbal conflicts.

Luo Chen, who was in a happy mood, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "How is it? Sister Yang, you heard me right, right? Don't look at what Director Chen says every day about choosing actors based on their roles, but in fact he is very nostalgic.

He Yinglin was browsing the Internet in her dormitory boredly, waiting for the launch of the new DreamWorks drama "The Walking Dead" that made her extremely curious. Suddenly she shouted, attracting the attention of her roommates.

Because after experiencing "Fatal Identity", Luo Chen used his unforgettable experience to come to the conclusion that works with high reputation are a panacea to help actors get out of the low period, because reputation can be exchanged for favorability.

He hasn't appeared in Chen Jingxing's movies since "The Signal", but that doesn't mean he doesn't covet Chen Jingxing's movies.

"Haha, my Luo Chen is back in the palace!"

"Yes, you have foresight, you are powerful, you are great, and you know Director Chen best." Manager Yang Xiaohui also coaxed Luo Chen with a smile.

Unfortunately, like other actors who have worked with Chen Jingxing, he is well aware of Chen Jingxing's character. No one dares to directly ask him for a role, but they are afraid of being disgusted by Chen Jingxing.

In this trough, negative news about "showing big names" also emerged as the times require.

"Look at how happy you are, just like a concubine in a cold palace seeing the light of day again and being blessed again."

These hindsights are all false, but the damage is real.

However, although there is still an audition, Luo Chen is quite confident in himself: "But it's not a big problem. Director Chen said this is a modern action film. I just finished filming "Kyushu Sky City" two years ago, and there are still some action scenes.

It comes from experience. Fortunately, I haven’t taken on any other roles in the past few months and have been exercising. Although my muscles can’t return to when I was filming “Kyushu,” my foundation is still there.”

"Ah? You still need to audition?"

…

Facing the surprised and delighted agent, Luo Chen nodded calmly: "Although the script for Director Chen's next movie has not yet been finalized, it is already in preparation. I am the first role that Director Chen has decided on.

, I will go to DreamWorks to audition in a few days."

But people and fans may not understand that DreamWorks' works are indeed recognized as good, but that also depends on whether Luo Chen, a super A-list star, can act in a certain episode of a miniseries.

As a supporting actor, many people think that this is not because Luo Chen wants to perform well, but because he is a bit outdated?

The film and television company was shocked by the disastrous failure of "The Demon"? Luochen couldn't receive any big-budget movie scripts?

"Source Code", "Gravity" and "The Matrix", each one has higher box office and more influence than the last one. After each movie is released, he will think in his mind after watching "YY"

How good your acting is, if you act it yourself, you will definitely act better.

Luo Chen showed a cheerful smile and snorted: "Continue to talk, but don't go to the ground to pay back the money. If they refuse to give in, forget it. When DreamWorks makes an official announcement later, the discussion these days will be just a gust of wind."

As long as there is a suitable role, he will definitely consider people he has worked with before."

After investing more than 300 million yuan, all you get is barely a return, so why not deposit it directly in the bank?

The biggest victim of the box office failure of "The Demon" was Master Xing, followed by Luo Chen.

The box office failure of "Journey to the West" at the beginning of the year was a huge blow to him.

Humph, besides, according to the order of priority, I am the queen of the main palace, Lei Jiayin and Hu Ge are behind me, and Yan Xiaoyue is the one who brings the cold palace back to light..."

You have already received a salary of 50 million yuan, and you can't shake the blame for the box office failure at all. "The other party has Gundam" cannot be used. Wouldn't it make you more embarrassed to be crushed by an animated film with the same theme?

In addition, as Luochen got older, many of his crazy fans also climbed up the wall one by one to follow the younger four sons who had returned to China. The entertainment industry's prodigals and rival fans ridiculed him, and there were no strong fans to defend him.

Already.

The agent Yang Xiaohui still looked a little in disbelief. She sat down on the chair and calmed down for a while before saying: "This is a windfall, and there is a bright future. Then contact the public relations company..."

At this time, all the protagonists, supporting roles, etc. can be put in the back of your mind.

Luo Chen, who originally had the idea of ​​"bearing the humiliation and bearing the burden" after "Black Mirror II" was finished filming and then looking for a good script, was completely unprepared for the surprise gift package that Chen Jingxing suddenly threw at him.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? "The Walking Dead" is released ahead of schedule?"

Today, his sweet dream suddenly came true. Several years of waiting had come to fruition. All his anxiety and accumulated jealousy towards Hu Ge, Lei Jiayin, and Lu Hongzhe turned into fireworks and exploded. His mind felt clear and relaxed for a moment.

Although I am still not sure whether this is due to the fact that "Kyushu Sky City" is about to be released, so I am using the old grudge between the director and Luo Chen to create hype, or whether it is Luo Chen's rival fans or Heizi's slander.

But in short, Luochen's "low-key" has really caused trouble. His "silence" after the Spring Festival has indeed turned into the feeling of "Luochen is going downhill" in the eyes of many people.

When Luo Chen accepted the supporting actor role in one of the episodes of "Black Mirror II", Yang Xiaohui also objected. However, when Luo Chen told her at that time, he had already agreed to DreamWorks and could not go back on it, otherwise it would offend DreamWorks.

, as Luo Chen’s manager, Yang Xiaohui is not an unsophisticated third-tier artist like Ye Shunan or Li Hanjun.

Why is Lei Datou...forget it, let's not talk about him.

Otherwise, how could Yan Xiaoyue rise again? How could Sister Wu Yue go from a supporting role in "Source Code" to the leading heroine in "Gravity"?

In the end, it only received a box office of 940 million. Even if it can theoretically recover its capital and gain from network copyright and other income, such a rate of return is definitely a disastrous failure.

Luo Chen rolled his eyes at the agent: "Sister Yang, what are you thinking about? Every role in DreamWorks must go through this process. I'm not a relative of Director Chen's family, can I make an exception?"

After experiencing the disastrous failure of "The Demon", Luochen was determined to regroup and rejected all the scripts. Instead, he contacted DreamWorks and got a role in "Black Mirror II".

He Yinglin proudly glanced at her roommate who came over - a Lu Han fan who kept saying that Luochen's box office was in trouble and would be abandoned by capital.

"Key information has leaked out about Oscar-winning director Chen Jingxing's new film. It is said to be a science fiction film related to dreams. The specific name is still unknown, but it is suspected that the casting list has been released.

Popular A-lister Luo Chen, who has worked with director Chen Jingxing on two films, will once again collaborate with director Chen to play the leading role. In addition, Chen Kun is said to also star in Chen Jingxing's new film. The list also includes Zhou Dongyu, Qin Lan, Pan Yueming,

Zhang Ruoyun and many other well-known actors.

However, this news has not yet been officially confirmed by director Chen Jingxing and DreamWorks..."
