Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

After meeting Lin Zhengying, Lin Daoqiu felt that Saenz was not very satisfied with him, so he called Fu Sheng over urgently.

But just like before, Saenz was still watching and shaking his head while Fu Sheng was performing.

"The two actors I just introduced to you are the ones I think are more suitable to play Kato. I wonder what Mr. Saenz thinks?"

Lin Daoqiu's question made Saenz secretly happy. He couldn't take the initiative to say no, he had to let Lin Daoqiu ask him first before he could refuse the other party.

Putting on a very distressed look, the expression on Saenz's face was that he had practiced in front of the mirror many times before coming here.

Although he hasn't made any blockbuster movies yet, his acting skills are quite good and he is considered to be of a certain standard.

"Mr. Lin, these two actors are indeed very good action stars, but they are still a little different from the Kato I thought."

Saenz would not be stupid enough to say that Lin Zhengying and Fu Sheng are bad. After all, these two people can be said to be the most powerful action actors he has seen so far.

So he could only make his words vague and tactful, so as not to make Lin Daoqiu unhappy.

What Saenz means simply is that it's not that they are bad, it's just that they don't quite fit the Kato I want.

Lin Daoqiu has no control over personal perceptions. After all, like Saenz, he sometimes prefers to be arbitrary.

"In this case, I don't know what Mr. Saenz's plans are."

Since neither Lin Zhengying nor Fu Sheng was chosen, Lin Daoqiu didn't plan to find anyone else to audition. After all, the remaining people were not as good as Lin Zhengying and Fu Sheng.

Moreover, Lin Daoqiu had never been interested in "The Green Hornet" from the beginning. Since Saenz didn't want it, Lin Daoqiu didn't intend to continue to care about it.

"I plan to hold a casting event in Xiangjiang."

Saenz looked at Lin Daoqiu carefully before finishing this sentence.

Originally, Saenz thought that Lin Daoqiu would be unhappy if he did not adopt the candidates recommended by Lin Daoqiu and instead held a casting event.

But what he didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu just said "oh" and then nodded.

"Mr. Saenz's method is good. Now that you have figured out what to do, if you need any help, please contact me."

For Longmeyer's sake, Lin Daoqiu will take care of Saenz to some extent.

But to Lin Daoqiu's surprise, Saenz suddenly shook his head.

"Mr. Lin, please rest assured that I will handle this matter. I will contact you immediately if necessary."

It seems that Saenz has already planned to go it alone. Lin Daoqiu is only slightly curious about this, but does not intend to pay too much attention.

After returning to the hotel, Jess was already waiting for Saenz in the room.

When Saenz opened the door and entered, Jess immediately stood up from the sofa, then looked at the other person nervously and asked.

"How's it going? What's the reaction from Mr. Lin?"

What Jess is most worried about now is whether the other party will be furious or angry after Saenz rejects the candidate recommended by Lin Daoqiu.

Saenz smiled and shook his head.

"Mr. Lin was not angry. When I said I wanted to hold auditions, he praised me and said it was a good idea."

Jess had already anticipated the worst case scenario, but what he didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu didn't care about it. This was not like the Lin Daoqiu he remembered.

I feel that I can't figure out what Lin Daoqiu is thinking, but for Jess, the first step has been successful. The next thing to do is to make Saenz famous starting from Xiangjiang.

As for casting, it was not something Jess had to consider from the beginning. After all, he was Saenz's agent, not the screenwriter or director of the movie.

In terms of movies, it can be said that Jess can hardly help Saenz.

However, Jess can help Saenz take care of things other than movies.

"I have already made arrangements. The casting activities for "The Green Hornet" will be published in all well-known newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong. I believe it won't be long before our plan will be successful."

He Guanchang helped Jess with all these things. After all, he had only been to Xiangjiang twice, and the first time he didn't stay long before returning to the United States.

He has neither connections nor resources here, so he relies on Jiahe to help him deal with it.

However, Jess did not tell Saenz about this matter. After all, the less people know about this kind of thing, the better.

"Awesome, I can't believe this, Jace, you are a gift from God, thank you so much."

Saenz doesn't know what Jace is doing behind his back. Currently, in his eyes, Jace is his savior.

Jess just smiled awkwardly at what Saenz said.

Because of this, he became more and more determined to hide the things he colluded with He Guanchang as much as possible.

…………

With the help of Jiahe, the audition activities of "The Green Hornet" in Hong Kong were officially published in various newspapers and magazines.

Hollywood directors actually went to Hong Kong to find actors and placed so many advertisements in newspapers and magazines. This was something that was unimaginable before.

In addition to announcing the audition activities, it was stated in newspapers and magazines that actors who audition must meet the conditions before they can participate.

First of all, in terms of age, the requirements are for young people between 25 and 35 years old, with a height of over 170cm, and they must be good at kung fu. It is best to have experience in film shooting, and it is even better to be able to speak fluent English.

If you list one item alone, it can be said that there are not a few people who meet the conditions, but if you add these conditions together, it can be said that at least 90% of the people are suitable.

When this advertisement for auditions for "The Green Hornet" was released, it immediately attracted the attention of many young people.

And among these people, there are also top martial arts stars, such as those from Di Bao.

"It's quite strange that "The Green Hornet" actually went to Xiangjiang to find actors."

Sammo Hung couldn't understand why the crew of "The Green Hornet" came to Hong Kong to find a martial arts star.

"Senior Brother, you meet the above conditions. What do you think? Are you interested in giving it a try?"

Yuan Biao asked with a smile.

I have to say that the Hollywood characters are indeed very attractive, and this is also an action movie, which belongs to Sammo Hung and his family's line of work.

To say that Sammo Hung has no ideas at all would be a lie.

But what he was worried about was that based on the relationship between Universal and Lin Daoqiu, this audition was real or just a formality.

If it's the former, Sammo Hung is really interested in taking Yuen Biao to give it a try.

But if it was the latter, then Sammo Hung would only view this audition as a joke.
