World-class directors in the entertainment industry

【Heishui Longqi】Company.

"Qin, what do you need from me?"

Martin came here again, looked at Qin Dong and asked curiously.

This man criticized CNN on the night of the premiere and didn't care. He continued to have a good time the next day. He even never called his agent to ask about the news. Unexpectedly, a day had passed and he was suddenly called.

Come.

"call..."

Qin Dong took a puff of his cigar, threw another one to Martin, and then spoke:

"Martin, how are the actors in the [Divergent] movie? I still want a role."

My aunt was not happy to keep Emma one extra night last night. In addition, Qin Dong took the initiative to promise the role. It is probably for this reason that my aunt Julia Roberts agreed.

Today, after Qin Dong got up, he had another fight with Emma. After lunch, he took the initiative to send the girl to Roberts Manor.

This is the estate that Julia Roberts bought in Beverly Hills after she became famous.

After sending Emma off, Qin Dong came to the company and called Martin, the agent from the CAA company next door.

"..."

Martin's eyes widened and he was a little speechless.

You don't need to ask to know what Qin Dong means. This is another character given to a woman.

It’s just that [Divergent] has been recruiting actors for quite some time. In fact, many of the actors have almost been finalized. The last time they gave up the supporting role of the second female villain, it actually offended Kate Winslet a bit.

After all, we have already negotiated with people and suddenly change our minds. Even if Kate is an artist of CAA, even if Martin is the president of CAA, it will always offend people. Big-name artists actually don't give much face to the agency.

"Oh, my head feels heavy, Qin, you asked me to offend someone again."

Martin covered his forehead and felt a headache.

"hey-hey..."

Qin Dong smiled happily, he is so willful:

"Martin, you have to do this even if you have a big head. I have promised to do it."

"Tell me how the recruitment of actors went."

Martin was a little speechless, and he knew Qin Dong's character, so he reluctantly took out his mobile phone:

"Hey, Thomson, bring the [Divergent] cast list to the [Black Water Dragon Flag] company next door."

Seeing Martin's helpless look, Qin Dong was very happy, smoking a cigar, and the two of them waited quietly.

A few minutes later, Martin's assistant Thomson arrived.

"We are almost recruiting actors."

Qin Dong looked at the cast list and said while looking at it.

The movie adapted from this novel actually has many characters.

In addition to the male and female protagonists, there are several male and female supporting characters.

There are young characters and there are older characters.

Let’s talk about the female characters, except for the heroine played by Elizabeth Olsen.

There are also three important supporting roles.

One is the big villain character sent out by Qin Dong, the second and third female characters, played by Naomi Knotts.

There are two supporting roles left, one is the good friend of the heroine, and there are many scenes in it. This young role is very suitable for Emma Roberts, and Qin Dong was the one who had the idea for this role.

Just looking at Zoe Clavette's name under the character, Qin Dong looked at the actor.

Basically they are supporting roles.

The last important supporting actress is played by an actress named Maggie Q. She also has a Chinese name, Li Meiqi.

Qin Dong looked at this woman's information.

I discovered that this woman had been in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong for several years at the beginning of the new century and became famous for it. After a few years, in 2006, she officially entered Hollywood by virtue of her Asian identity.

However, most of them are supporting roles, but they can be considered to have a firm foothold.

"Ta...ta...ta..."

After Qin Dong read the information, he tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously, thinking deeply about how to change actors.

To be honest, it was really difficult for Martin.

After all, it seems that even if the actors haven't signed the contract, it has already been basically decided. A sudden change of actors would really offend people.

After thinking for a long time, Qin Dong couldn't find a good excuse. He pointed his finger, stopped thinking, looked at Martin and said directly:

"Martin, Christina's role was played by Zora Clavitz, replaced by Emma, ​​Emma Roberts, Julia Roberts' niece."

"Maggie Q, who plays Tori, is replaced by Li Shuishui, a compatriot of mine. You can check the information yourself."

Originally, I only wanted one role, but unexpectedly, after seeing Maggie Q, also known as Li Meiqi, appearing in the cast list, Qin Dong remembered that there were Asian faces in this series of movies.

In this case, what is this Maggie Q? She is really Asian. Qin Dong didn’t look at her information carefully. Anyway, she is from this country. Although she looks pretty, it doesn’t matter. Qin Dong is not real.

I met the previous person, hehe, so I changed.

Let's switch to Li Shuishui. This actress has supported Qin Dong many times, and she always comes uninvited. She is a very good person.

Qin Dong also agreed to this woman last time and would look for her to film movies in the future. If that's the case, then this is the right time.

Not only that, Qin Dong has already planned that in the future, as long as his movies and his company's movies require Asian faces, they will recruit actors from the domestic entertainment industry, rather than recruiting Asian faces from Hollywood.

There are many things that Qin Dong is not alone in. It can only be said that he has no choice but to help some actors in the domestic entertainment industry.

"Oh my goodness."

Martin felt his head hurt even more.

I thought it was one character, but now there are two.

In addition to the previous recruitment of a supporting villain and heroine, it means that all four main female characters were arranged by Qin Dong.

"Qin, you are so philanthropic and generous."

"When you are a director, you are really... Only someone like you who makes movies very quickly can be so generous."

"Otherwise, if a normal director starts a movie every two years, how can he come up with so many female characters?"

Qin Dong didn't take it seriously. Martin's complaints were like a drizzle to him. He smiled and said:

"Oh, Martin, I just thought you were complimenting me."

Martin looked at Qin Dong's appearance and was immediately bored. He laughed and shook his head helplessly:

"Okay, Qin, I'll do as you say."

"It's just that I have to make amends with others. I offend people for no reason, hey..."

"Fortunately, they are all artists from my company and I haven't signed a contract yet, otherwise I would probably have to pay liquidated damages."

The crew is still being formed, so Martin is not in a hurry to sign contracts with the actors. After all, these are the company's artists with small roles, and he is also a little wary of Qin Dong's move.

After all, this man is really philanthropic. Like most male stars in Hollywood and many big shots in the industry, he often changes women.

"Well, Martin, thank you for your hard work."

Qin Dong also knew how Martin felt and thanked him:

"Let's see if we can compensate these two people from other places, or if my company has movies in the future, we can let them play supporting roles."

"I remember."
