Chapter 3168 Actor Selection
w “Lin, I heard the news that the six major film companies have united again and are preparing to jointly attack you. [Cameron walked over and passed Lin Feng a piece of news that was no longer news.
Lin Feng already knew this news before Cameron arrived. And knows the whole roundtable inside and out. As for who is talking to Lin Feng, it is naturally the CEO of Twentieth Century Fox and Rupert Murdoch’s daughter, Elizabeth Murdoch.
Although Lin Feng does not hold a controlling stake in "News Corporation", after helping Murdoch's wife Anne get the inheritance rights belonging to her three children, "News Corporation" and Lin Feng already have a close relationship. . However, the relationship between the two parties has always been underground and has never been known to the outside world. Even the many newspapers under the "News Corporation", such as the "Sun", which has always attacked Lin Feng with sticks, still greet Lin Feng with all kinds of vicious words and vicious curses as always. Let the outside world not know this. But once there is a major event that really affects Lin Feng's vital interests, News Corporation will still report everything to Lin Feng secretly.
Of course, if necessary, they can also stand up and let the power of public opinion completely shift to Lin Feng's side. But once that happens, the relationship between Lin Feng and News Corporation will probably become public knowledge. Therefore, Lin Feng would never take this step unless necessary. Moreover, it is in Lin Feng's interest to use News Corporation to slowly collect the latest information about 'g23' so that Lin Feng will not be suppressed by 'g23' like before. Therefore, the relationship between Lin Feng and "News Corporation". It will always be like the Chinese Communist Party before liberation, which will always go underground.
"James, this round table meeting of theirs can only become a farce in my opinion!" Lin Feng shook his head.
farce? Cameron was stunned? You know, when this was in town, these studios banded together. Lin Feng almost suffered a big fall. Many Chinese workers hired by Lin Feng were almost sent back by the US Immigration Service, and a huge fine was issued to Lin Feng. At that time, Lin Feng used all his strength and performed an "Infernal Affairs" to escape. This time the two sides joined forces again, and it turned into a farce? This made Cameron a little confused.
"James. Just watch. These companies made a mistake in their calculations, so this is a ridiculous farce!" Lin Feng laughed.
"Come on, James, come with me to greet the actors who are about to arrive. See if they meet the standards. You know. I don't even know who they are." Lin Feng laughed.
Cameron nodded. Once he finishes filming Avatar, he will film the East American version of "Infinite Horror". Therefore, it is necessary for him to learn from John Woo's candidates first. After all, this "Infinite Horror" is a completely unfamiliar film situation for these gold medal directors. No matter how senior he is. No matter how experienced you are, you never dare to be careless.
Accompanied by John Woo, Lin Feng, Cameron, and Spielberg arrived at Los Angeles International Airport.
Not long after the meeting, all the actors of "Infinite Horror" arrived. This arrival was accompanied by a large number of reporters from China. Originally, these magazines and newspapers did not arrange overseas reporters in the United States. However, "Infinite Horror" has attracted much attention in the country and has become the most popular drama. Naturally, reporters like them have to follow the army and report the most cutting-edge news. Therefore, during the filming of "Infinite Horror", these reporters will not leave and will always accompany the entire crew.
witness the miracle!
Finally, the actor appeared. In the "Infinite Horror" Zhongzhou team, there are a total of 17 people, including the protagonist Zheng Zha, military counselor Chu Xuan, genius child Xiao Honglu, Zhan Lan, Zhao Yingkong, Ming Yanwei, Cheng Xiao, Zhang Heng, Zhang Jie, Wang Xia, Bawang, Ling Dian, Qi Tengyi, Immortun, Ansuna, Liu Yu, Lin Juntian. Among them, Zhan Lan is played by Liu Yifei, Ming Yanwei is played by Zhai Ling, and Immorton and Ansuna are played by the two original protagonists of the original "The Mummy Returns". And who will the others be?
This has always been the biggest secret of "Infinite Horror". Even when he received special training from Yuan Heping in Hong Kong, it was never announced to the public. These reporters were surprised to see Lin Feng appearing together with such top-level directors as Cameron and Spielberg. Although they were all surprised and wanted to interview them, they finally resisted the urge and concentrated on waiting for the 13 members of the crew who had not spoken to the public. Announced cast members appear.
The first one appeared.
Lin Feng! Many reporters buzzed. Lin Feng, this is TVB's leading niche, he has starred in many roles, such as Zhao Pan in "The Story of Qin", who was later Qin Shihuang. The son of Zhao Ya from the Zhao Kingdom was stolen by Xiang Shaolong and became Ying Zheng. The vividness of Qin Shihuang's initial cowardice but final domineering power is impressive. Of course, the subsequent filming of "Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" even brought Kou Zhong to life. "The Legend of Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty" invested by TVB is a very failed adaptation from the original work, and both the props and the scenes are very crude. But with the outstanding performances of the two protagonists, this TV series, which was supposed to be a bad show, became a classic.
Of course, Raymond Lam later filmed more TVB classic TV series, such as "Legal Rookie", "Cloud Sea Jade Bow" and so on. They are all popular TV series. And more importantly, he is very handsome. Although in the original work, Zheng Zha is just an ordinary office worker, a white-collar worker. But it is right for Raymond Lam to play the role. This will only make this character more colorful. After all, under the same acting skills, the audience still likes handsome men and beautiful women. What's more, Raymond Lam's acting skills are definitely worthy of recognition.
He should be playing Zheng Zha! Many reporters muttered in their hearts.
Facts have also proved that when Raymond Lam came down, John Woo also introduced Raymond Lam to many reporters in person and announced that he was the actor of Zheng Zha in "Infinite Horror". He will play the normal Zheng Zha and the Zheng Zha of the Demon Team in the game. One is as kind as an angel, and the other is as black as a demon. This is definitely a test of Raymond Lam's acting skills. But no one will doubt Raymond Lam's strength.
"You said, invite Lin Feng. He and Lin Feng are just one letter apart. Is there something fishy about this?" Some reporters whispered.
Lin Feng, Lin Feng. They sound exactly the same, no difference. John Woo smiled secretly. There is nothing fishy about this, it's just a coincidence. Of course. If there is really a fishy thing, it's just John Woo's way of showing goodwill to Lin Feng.
Of course, apart from the protagonist Zheng Zha who is the most popular, Chu Xuan is also very popular. Chu Xuan is the existence of "Infinite Horror" with an intelligence that is almost like a demon. His favorite catchphrase is - the wisdom of mortals.
So, who will play him? This is really worth the expectation of many reporters.
What disappointed all the reporters was that John Woo explained to everyone helplessly that he had not found a suitable candidate to play Chu Xuan for the time being. He will continue to hold auditions. If it doesn't work, he will consider choosing one from Tony Leung, Daniel Wu, Lawrence Ng and others.
Then, Dicky Cheung came down. Seeing this bald man, everyone laughed. I also vaguely guessed that he should play the most nonsensical Cheng Xiao in the story. This man who is always smiling and lecherous.
And the third person who came out. But it really scared everyone-Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Why is the Governor of California here? This, who is he playing? Is he playing the Overlord?
No, Schwarzenegger doesn't have time to play the role of Overlord, which has many scenes. He is just the super bodyguard copied by Chu Xuan in the main god space-Arnold. Originally, the prototype of the bodyguard copied by Chu Xuan in the novel was Schwarzenegger, and Schwarzenegger played it. That is naturally the most appropriate. And this will not delay the governor for a long time. After all, this Arnold died a long time ago. There are only three scenes.
Who will play the Overlord? Schwarzenegger is such a strong man, if he doesn't play the Overlord, who will play the Overlord?
John Woo gave the answer, which is the actor of "The Scorpion King"-The Rock, Johnson.
Seeing Johnson's muscles, many reporters knew that he was the Overlord. And he was a more suitable Overlord than Schwarzenegger. With that terrifying muscle, he was definitely the best choice for the most sturdy Overlord in the novel prototype.
As for the child-faced Zhao Yingkong, it was the ageless fairy Vivian Hsu. Of course, the reason for choosing Vivian Hsu was her appearance and temperament. She was indeed very delicate and pure, and her figure was extremely sexy and hot. Of course, more importantly, Vivian Hsu had also starred in many movies. Although her acting skills could not be said to be excellent, she could barely meet John Woo's requirements... Watching these people walk down one by one, the reporters' shutters never stopped.
"Haha, Lin, after I finish shooting this time, I won't shoot again for the time being. Don't come to me again in the future." Schwarzenegger walked to Lin Feng with a cigar in his mouth.
"Arnold, don't worry, I won't bother you again. And I will definitely work hard on what I promised you. As long as I can finally defeat them, I believe your dream will come true!" Lin Feng promised.
Schwarzenegger's dream is to become the president of the United States, just like former President Reagan, who became the president from an actor. It's just because Schwarzenegger was born in Austria and later immigrated to the United States. According to US law, the first generation of immigrants cannot run for the US president. The second generation of immigrants, that's no problem at all. Schwarzenegger, who chose to go into politics, has the goal of becoming the president of the United States. However, he can't do anything about this, so he can only rely on Lin Feng.
But for Lin Feng, this is not a big deal. This matter is actually very simple. There is only one way, let members of Congress amend the US Constitution to allow knowledgeable people like Schwarzenegger to run for the president of the United States. This can be amended, but it only requires the consent of those members of Congress. As for how to make these members of Congress agree, Lin Feng has also thought about it. There are only two ways, one is coercion, and the other is inducement.
If it's coercion, then when Lin Feng kills "g23" and becomes the king of this world, he can naturally control these members of Congress. As for inducement, it is to use the magical effects of "Rejuvenation Pill" and "Yumen Pass" to induce these members of Congress. Both methods are feasible, but they both take a long time.
Fortunately, Lin Feng is still young and Schwarzenegger is not too old. There is still time to wait!
After sending the actors to the hotel to rest, Lin Feng discussed the plot and the selection of actors with Cameron and others again. Originally, Lin Feng didn't need to discuss these, there were directors, screenwriters, and stagehands, but who made Lin Feng the original author of "Infinite Horror", since Lin Feng was the original author, then Lin Feng couldn't escape all of this. Whether it was John Woo or Cameron, they had questions in their hearts and naturally asked Lin Feng. Fortunately, Lin Feng invested so much money, and naturally hoped to be more refined, so he didn't feel unhappy, but looked excited. For Lin Feng, he was also looking forward to the effect of the first episode of "Infinite Horror" after it was officially released.
"Boss, the negotiators of those film companies have come several times and asked to negotiate with you." Lin Chiling came over and interrupted Lin Feng and Cameron and others discussing the plot.
"Lin, I think it's better for you to deal with it. These film companies have a wide network of contacts in the United States. I know you are not afraid, but you don't need to cause trouble for yourself, right!" Cameron persuaded with a smile. These film companies, united together, almost monopolize all resources in the American film industry. Although Lin Feng now has his own filming base, his own actors, his own directors, and his own people for everything. But it is best not to offend them if you can. Otherwise, these people will sabotage you behind your back, and you will suffer.
For example, let someone cut off your power supply today, let someone cut off your water supply tomorrow, and then organize you to illegally employ workers, etc. Although these methods are despicable, you have to say that those film companies can really do it. Colleagues are enemies, and they can't just watch Lin Feng show off here without reacting.
Lin Feng nodded.
"Then you continue to discuss, I'll go meet these film company representatives." Lin Feng moved his limbs and smiled coldly.
The so-called film company representatives are actually the six American film company giants. Except for them, no one else can represent the American film industry. It's just that they really made a mistake this time.
"I say, what do you want to protest? What do you want to say? This is the film base I invested in. If you don't want to shoot, get out! If you want to shoot here, be honest and come to negotiate respectfully. Don't shout here! If you want to shout, get out! You must know that this is my territory, I am the boss! It's not me who needs help, but you! Also, if you want to use some tricks to mess with me this time, don't forget that it's not just you who will mess with others! I, Lin Feng, have never been a person who is afraid of things!" Lin Feng yelled back at the vice presidents of the six major film companies with just one sentence.
What a joke, wanting to come to my own territory to shoot a movie, and dare to be mean to me, it's simply unreasonable! If you want to shoot a movie, you can, just do everything I say. Otherwise, get out! (To be continued)m
