World-class directors in the entertainment industry

"Infrastructure maniac..."

"Why should I care if time is too urgent..."

On the way home in the car, Qin Dong thought as he sat in the back seat.

If you are abroad, if you don't advance a few months, it will be something that you don't even have to think about and will definitely not be able to accomplish.

But in China, even if it is only given a short week, Qin Dong is confident that he will be ready to shoot by then.

A mere green screen shed, a mere two-story villa.

In front of the domestic engineering team with "Infrastructure Maniacs", these are not a big deal at all. They can only be called "little guys".

...

Warner Bros. Pictures.

President's Office.

"Boss, the people below have received new news about an actor who may meet Director Qin's requirements."

The assistant knocked on the door and reported after coming in.

"Oh, tell me quickly."

Barry Meyer was refreshed and asked questions quickly.

It has been four months since Warner and Qin Dong officially signed a multi-part contract to officially create a DC Universe movie that belongs exclusively to Warner.

During this period, Qin Dong wrote out his overall plan for the DC universe.

Also imitating the Marvel Universe next door, there is a first phase, ten-year plan.

A ten-year plan unique to DC, the beginning is a new movie.

And this new movie planned by Qin Dong needs a leading actor with a unique appearance.

I'm stuck on this requirement.

Warner contacted brokerage companies everywhere to collect such actors in the circle. Unfortunately, after sending them to Qin Dong for review, they were all rejected.

"Boss, David Hayter, a well-known screenwriter and director in the industry, took the initiative to contact us after hearing the news."

The assistant handed over a stack of photos and introduced:

"What David is best at is screenwriting."

"David was the screenwriter for the first and second mutant movies [X-Men] produced by 20th Century Fox."

"David is currently filming his second film as a director [Werewolf Town.]"

"The current look of one of the supporting characters is very much in line with Director Qin's requirements."

Barry Meyer listened quietly and said nothing.

Focus more on the photos in front of you.

Looking at the photo handed over by the assistant, the actor on it frowned slightly at the beginning:

"When was this photo taken?"

After looking at a few photos, I turned one photo over and faced the assistant to ask.

In this photo, a man with long hair, bare upper body and bulging muscles is holding a long sword high.

"This one..."

When the assistant heard this, he pondered, his head turned quickly, and he recalled it a second later:

"This photo is a still from a movie [Sword of Kings] more than 2 years ago."

"This man is the male protagonist and plays Conan the Barbarian."

"So he was shirtless for most of the movie."

The most basic ability of an assistant is that before making a report, he has already filtered through his mind the questions that the boss may ask.

"With well-developed muscles and a good figure, he meets the requirements of the male protagonist in our new movie."

When Barry Meyer heard about the movie look from more than two years ago, he immediately felt a little satisfied.

At least in terms of body shape, this person meets the basic requirements: that is, he must have well-developed muscles and a good figure.

"Tell me some basic information about this person."

Continue to look at other photos and give instructions smoothly.

"Okay, boss."

The assistant opened the folder he was carrying and began to recite:

"This actor is called Jason Momoa. He was born in 1979 and is 34 years old this year."

"Height is a full 193 centimeters."

"Born in Hawaii, I was discovered as a model in 1999."

"So far in my career as an actor, I have actually filmed a very small number of TV series and movies."

"Except for the movie [Sword of Kings] where I was the starring role, the others were all supporting roles and even appeared in few scenes."

"There are only a handful of movies that are somewhat famous, including the TV series [Game of Thrones Season 1] and the movie [Kingsword] that were released more than 2 years ago."

"And the first supporting role in the movie [Werewolf Town] directed by David Hayter, which is currently being filmed."

"David Hayter, [Werewolf Town]?"

Barry Meyer repeated the director's name and the name of the movie being filmed.

He pulled out a photo, turned it over and asked:

"Is this a still from [Werewolf Town] being filmed?"

In this photo, there is a look of a rough man with unshaven beard and messy shoulder-length hair.

"Yeah...this is a still of the character played by Jason Momoa in [Werewolf Town], the boss."

The assistant just glanced at it and immediately nodded in confirmation.

"It looks really good. It fits the image of the leading actor in our new film. The previous photos show that the actor has a good figure and muscles."

Barry Meyer looked at the photo again with great interest, and finally ordered:

"Send this person's photos and information to Qin immediately."

"Waiting for Qin's reply."

"Come and report as soon as possible."

Barry Meyer has become very familiar with the speed at which Qin Dong makes films over the years.

No matter what type of movie, no matter how much the movie costs, the final shooting time never exceeds three months. This is the speed at which Qin Dong shoots movies.

Warner, represented by Barry, is an investor in each of Qin Dong's movies and has already known that Qin Dong's new movie will be shot today.

So, before the filming of Qin Dong's new movie is completed, it is a top priority to determine the leading actors, supporting actors and other actors for the next movie in advance.

Better sooner rather than later.

"Okay, boss."

...

Leaving China Film Group one day later...

Qin Dong received a call from Director Han.

"Xiao Qin, the green screen shed and two-story villa you want can be seen in a week."

"So fast? I knew it wouldn't be difficult for Director Han. Thank you."

"You know how to give me a problem, but if you shoot with a green screen like this, will the cost decrease or increase?"

“Almost maintaining the original cost.”

"Okay, then it'll be fine."

"Director Han, where should we choose the location?"

"It's in the dx area where you live now. How about it? Is it very convenient for you to go home? But it can only last for a few months and will be demolished. This is a temporary plan. It is a development zone and will be built into a factory after demolition.

.”

"I understand. Thank you, Director Han. I have nothing to say. I will treat you to a drink some other time."

"Haha...make a good movie. I hope you will go higher and higher. That will be a hundred times happier than drinking."

"Understood, I have been moving towards this goal."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Dong suddenly smiled.

This is the benefit of having a wide network of people.

Throw the problem out and it will be solved instantly.

In just one day, a place where a factory was supposed to be built was delayed by three or four months to renovate a green screen shed.

It will be demolished after a few months and construction of the factory building will begin again.

The money, of course, was provided by Qin Dong, um, it was deducted from the cost of the movie.

Spend money to build, only use it for a few months, and then dismantle it.

Those who have a lot of money to burn will be willful if they have money, and they just like to burn money.

...

People feel refreshed when happy events occur.

When time comes, heaven and earth all work together.

Good things come in pairs easily.

"Jason Momoa?"

That night, Qin Dong saw the actor information and photos sent by Warner again on his computer.

"This information is really simple. The resume doesn't look that good. No wonder it's so hard to find."

After casually scanning the photo a few times, Qin Dong passed it without looking any further.

This person looked very familiar, and after a few glances he was sure he was the actor he was looking for.

Opening [Jason Momoa]'s information, Qin Dong realized why Warner had only sent this person's information until now.

It turns out that he is not a professional actor, and he is not well-known, and his roles are few and far between.

Seeing Jason Momoa's height of 193cm, Qin Dong understood a little bit.

When an actor has no background, no connections, and a unique height, it is difficult for such an actor to get ahead.

Having no connections and no background means that you want to get up and start your career as a small supporting role.

He is only 193cm tall, which limits too many possibilities. Not many supporting roles are suitable for this height.

Opportunities that were already rare have become even rarer.

"The first actor for [Justice League] has been confirmed."

Qin Dong finally replied to Warner's email and sent it:

"is it him."
