Rebirth of India: Superior
Chapter 319: Fighting for a Role
This time it was Gong Li who contacted Shakru and Wei Jiahui. Originally, Wei Changhui was worried that he was not familiar with India and it was difficult to work in the shooting location. He happened to meet Gong Li at a party and talked about this problem. Gong Li immediately told him that she was in India. If you have a good friend, you can entrust him or her to help take care of the film crew.
Shaklu naturally would not refuse Gong Li's plea. He also admired Wei Jiahui's personality as a director, and there were many actors and singers in this crew that he liked very much in his previous life, such as Liu Qingyun, Cheng Zhongji, Cecilia Cheung, Cai'er Ying, etc. Wu Zhenyu, Cheng Kui'an and others could satisfy his desire to meet celebrities, so they went to greet Wei Jiahui and his party in person.
"Mr. Pandit, we are really troublesome for you during this filming!" Wei Jiahui said this with absolute sincerity. He originally wanted to invite Shakru's Polaris Company to invest in the film, but the Chinese star behind it The boss didn't agree, so he could only accept Shakru's help without being able to do anything in return, so he felt somewhat guilty.
Shaklu waved his hand generously and said: "Director Wei, you are too foreign. Miss Gong's friend is my friend, and I have always admired your works, Director Wei, especially "Peace Hotel" and I have watched "Skinny Man and Woman" several times."
"I have long heard that Mr. Pandit is very familiar with and understands Chinese culture. Today I saw that you are indeed well-deserved. You actually know so much about Hong Kong movies." Wei Jiahui praised in shock.
"Not only the works of Director Wei, but also the works of Mr. Liu, Mr. Wu, Miss Zhang, Mr. Cheng, and Mr. Zheng. I will also sing your "Lovesickness is Useless" especially Mr. Zheng." Shakru said with some pride.
Due to the deliberate ingratiation of Wei Jiahui and his entourage and Shakru's familiarity with Hong Kong dramas, the atmosphere at the wine table soon became lively. After Liu Qingyun had a glass of wine with Shakru, he asked curiously: "Mr. Pandit , I want to ask you a question, is it easy to get sick due to the climate here in India? My wife was particularly worried about my visit this time and prepared two boxes of food and medicine for me. "
Shakru thought for a moment and then replied: "How should I put it? The climate and food here in India are indeed very different from those in Hong Kong, so it is easy to feel uncomfortable, but you don't have to worry about these. I just make medicines It’s for business, so I will prepare all your needs in this regard, as well as for food, I will arrange a special Chinese restaurant to deliver lunch boxes to everyone.”
Cecilia Cheung on the side breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's great. I ate in authentic Indian restaurants several times before coming here, but found that I couldn't adapt to it at all. I'm worried whether I can only eat in these few months. I have been relying on instant noodles, and now that I heard Mr. Pandit say this, I feel like I can finally save my stomach.”
Looking at Cecilia Cheung, Shakru felt very emotional. At this time, Cecilia Cheung had just become famous with "The Roar of the East" and there had been no negative news in the future, so she still gave people a very innocent feeling. However, according to the time, it was very Maybe he was already involved with Teacher Chen at this time, so Shaklu said calmly: "Miss Zhang, don't worry about this, but there seems to be no authentic Cantonese restaurant in New Delhi, only Sichuan and Northeastern cuisine. I wonder if you can adapt."
"Da Liu, Cecilia, I'm not talking about you. It's hard to come to India once, so you have to experience the unique customs here. If you are prepared for everything, you might as well not come. Anyway, this time for this drama, I Firstly, it’s for Jiahui’s sake, and secondly, I want to take the opportunity to travel to India, so Mr. Pandit, you don’t need to take special care of me, just treat me as an Indian,” Wu Zhenyu interrupted. (The above celebrity remarks are all from behind-the-scenes footage of this drama, so their credibility should be relatively high.)
After the dinner, Shaklu took the opportunity to send Wei Jiahui back and said to him privately: "Director Wei, I have something small to trouble you about."
"Mr. Pandit, you are too polite. If there is anything I can do, just say it."
"Um, I want a role in your play. Three girls and four girls will do."
"That's no problem at all. I originally planned to ask Mr. Pandit to help me find some local actors. After all, this is an Indian-flavored film, and it's impossible to have all Indian actors." Wei Jiahui replied easily, Because he had already been mentally prepared for Shakru's request. Everyone is making movies, so naturally they want to find opportunities to praise their own artists. This is a normal phenomenon, not to mention that he really plans to find some Indian actors. To add an Indian flavor to the film.
What Wei Jiahui didn't expect was that Shakru actually shook his head and said: "Director Wei, no matter what kind of Indian actor you need, I can help you find it. However, the person I want to trouble you is not an Indian actor, but an Indian actor." I am a mainland actor, so I have to trouble you to customize a role.”
Although he was a little surprised, Wei Jiahui still happily agreed: "That's no problem, let's do this. You ask her to come to my place tomorrow for a audition, and then I will see which role is suitable for her."
"Thank you, Director Wei."
After returning to his villa, Shakru called Muqi Miya over and said to her: "If there is an opportunity to co-operate with Wei Jiahui, Cheng Zhongji, Wu Zhenyu, Liu Qingwan and Cecilia Cheung in a new drama, would you be interested? "
Hearing these familiar and star-studded names, Mu Qi Miya's eyes lit up immediately, and she said excitedly: "Of course I am willing. Even if I play a minor role in their movies, I can still be familiar to the audience. However, their Hong Kong movies have a fixed team. If you can't get in touch, you have no chance at all. Moreover, there are fewer and fewer movies that can gather so many big stars, so once there is such a movie, everyone will squeeze in frantically. The internal staff of others can't be used, let alone a small person like me."
Shakru said proudly: "China Star recently organized these people to shoot an Indian-style movie "Himalayan Star". I just received them, and I have already agreed with director Wei Jiahui to reserve a role of the third or fourth female for you. You can audition tomorrow."
"Really? Thank you so much, boss! Don't worry, I will work hard and not embarrass you!" Mu Qi Miya said excitedly, and then of course it was a night of spring!
ps: I will continue to promote the book "I'm Live Broadcasting in the Three Kingdoms". The author is also a reader of my book and urges me to update it every day in the author group...
