Don't look at Mango Channel's difficulty with Luo Xun because of the variety show. Some time ago, when the representatives of Tianguang and Yinbai brought the completed "Meteor Shower" to discuss cooperation with Mango Channel, the person in charge of Mango Channel's TV department did not hesitate because of this. He did not want to create any difficulties, because after all, the variety show department and the TV drama department are two different departments, and the relationship between Luo Xun and Mango Channel is not that bad, it's just a little knot in his heart.

The quality of the TV series is fine.

The rest is of course no problem.

Luo Xun's visit this time was just to sign some contracts regarding broadcast dividends and other matters. There is still some time before the TV series is broadcast. If nothing else happens, it will be during this summer vacation. At that time, Luo Xun should have just finished filming the movie " "Dragon Flying Swords" didn't take long, right?

Finished signing some contracts.

Luo Xun made an appointment for dinner with Teacher He and others in the evening. Because they had known each other very early and had always been on good terms, Luo Xun went to the appointment readily. What Luo Xun did not expect was that besides Teacher He, there were only a few people at the dinner table. There is also a slightly familiar face, this person is ******, with a very powerful slicked back hair, and his body exudes a strong temperament

The temperament of a Hong Kong and Taiwan director.

Luo Xun recognized the other party, and the other party also recognized Luo Xun, and stood up and said hello with a smile. Luo Xun naturally returned the greeting, but he was curious in his heart why the other party appeared at the dinner. Was it Teacher He who invited him or was it because of the invitation? If it's the former, it's okay if it's the latter. If it's the latter, it's a good opportunity, so Luo Xun hopes it's the second reason.

A meal.

Drinking and drinking each other.

After dinner, Teacher He and the others suddenly left with an excuse. Before leaving, they even winked at Luo Xun. This made Luo Xun realize that the director from the Hong Kong and Taiwan circles in front of him was really here for him, which made him feel a little sad. While showing his expectation, he also looked a little more solemn. After all, the other party is now considered a top director in the industry.

Chen Kexin!

Only Chen Kexin and Luo Xun were left at the dinner. The other party stood up and introduced himself in Mandarin with a Hong Kong and Taiwanese accent: "Hello, Luo Sheng, I am Chen Kexin. I believe you have guessed the purpose of my appearance here today. I want to talk to you." Talk about a collaboration about my next movie.”

Chen Kexin's next movie!

Luo Xun's mind was spinning rapidly, and then he quickly locked on a movie, which seemed to be an invitation to "Partners". Luo Xun had seen this movie in his previous life, and privately thought it was a very good movie, and Chen Kexin solemnly invited him to it. method, I’m afraid I hope I can play the leading role

Don't get me wrong.

This movie has three protagonists.

The first protagonist, Cheng Dongqing, was originally played by Huang Xiaoming. He was a country bumpkin who failed the college entrance examination twice. He was about to succumb to the fate of being a farmer. He made a last ditch effort to memorize the entire English dictionary. , from bright eyes to short-sightedness, I took the exam for the third time and was admitted to Peking University!

The second protagonist is Meng Xiaojun.

The original version was played by Deng Chao as an elite intellectual. He was highly confident and believed in his heart that he would always be the best. He looked like a very successful person. Luo Xun felt that Chen Kexin was most likely to invite him to play this role because he looked so similar. In the outside world's impression, he is very suitable for playing an elite.

The third protagonist is Wang Yang.

The original version starred Tong Dawei, a romantic in the 1980s. He was handsome, loved literature, and dreamed of being a poet. However, he accidentally started a career with the other two protagonists. This kind of character and personality look like Luo Xun. He can also play roles, and his appearance has a natural advantage.

Yes.

Thinking about it carefully, Luo Xun felt that Chen Kexin would most likely invite him to play Meng Xiaojun or Wang Yang. From the appearance to the character, it suited him very well, but Luo Xun wanted to play Dongqing in his heart. It had nothing to do with the fact that this role was the most important. The real reason was Because this role is the biggest contrast with Luo Xun's previous roles, and it is also the most challenging. It is a role that Luo Xun has always wanted to try.

As expected.

After Luo Xun said hello with a smile, Chen Kexin introduced his new play: "Originally, Mr. Han wanted to make a movie that reflected our country's contemporary entrepreneurs, so he asked me to be the producer. Later, I got creative inspiration and I'm trying to be the director of this movie. There are three protagonists in the movie, and I want you to play one of the elite young people with American dreams..."

Meng Xiaojun gets.

At this time, Luo Xun couldn't take the liberty to say that I wanted to play Dongqing. If he had said that, Chen Kexin should have suspected that his script had been stolen. It would be even worse to refuse directly. Even if he couldn't play Dongqing, Luo Xun couldn't miss this time. It's not bad. After all, this is a movie. There are still too few roles played by Luo Xun in the movie field. Meng Xiaojun may not be the best choice, but it is definitely a high-quality choice, so Luo Xun asked:

"Is there a script?"

Chen Kexin apologized: "I was passing by and heard that you were here, so we met tonight. The script is still in the writing stage. I won't send it to you until it's finished. It just so happens that you have accepted Lao Xu's play now, right? When your cooperation is almost complete, my script will definitely be released. "

"no problem."

Luo Xun smiled and began to praise the other party's directing ability. It was not entirely hypocritical. The other party's directing ability was quite good. He was considered one of the Chinese directors' superstructure. He had worked with many stars in the past, such as Hua Xun. Luo Xun is also happy to work with such top-tier directors as Tsai Tsai and Jet Li. At the same time, Luo Xun also understands that the other party is interested in him mostly because of "Slaying the Wolf 2"!

This is reality!

This second movie in the SPL series is a big hit. Luo Xun has shown a certain box office appeal in the mainland. Chen is famous for his emphasis on the mainland market. Since "If Love", he has frequently cooperated with the mainland to film, so isn't it normal to choose to invite Luo Xun?

Chen Kexin smiled happily.

Just as Luo Xun thought, Chen Kexin felt that Luo Xun was an actor with box office appeal in the mainland. Although he played a supporting role in "SPL 2", his popularity miraculously overshadowed the protagonist. Even if his box office appeal was a bit exaggerated, and the real credit for the high box office was not Luo Xun, then Luo Xun would be a very good choice among mainland stars just based on his acting skills and popularity in the mainland!

So the two hit it off!

It's a typical case of each taking what he needs!

This is a collaboration that has nothing to do with so-called resources. Chen Kexin needs a leading young mainland actor like Luo Xun to add value to the film, and Luo Xun also needs a great director like Chen Kexin to help him temporarily get rid of the embarrassing situation of always playing villains in movies. Besides, as far as I can remember, the box office of this movie was pretty good, so why not do it?
