Chapter 578 Loyal to the Movie
"Wait a minute, you'll know once you read the script."
After working together for such a long time, everyone has become old friends, and it is impossible for Su Chen to completely ignore their feelings.
Well, after hearing Su Chen’s words, everyone immediately shut up.
Even Yan Ni, who was not present, was given the leading female role by Brother Chen.
Doesn’t this prove that everything Brother Chen arranged was for the purpose of making a good movie and being true to the movie?
This also shows that if there are roles suitable for them, Brother Chen will definitely assign them without hesitation.
Thinking of this, everyone felt comfortable immediately.
Brother Chen never favors anyone, there is no doubt about that.
Seeing that everyone's emotions had calmed down, Su Chen continued to arrange the roles.
"I play the leading male role Cheng Yong myself, no need to say more."
"Next, Mr. Xiaogang will play the supporting actor Lü Shouyi."
“…”
Upon hearing this arrangement, everyone at the scene looked at each other in bewilderment once again.
Brother Chen, it is only natural for you to play the leading male role.
Everyone was speechless.
But the male supporting actor you arranged is not here either?
How come all the characters you arranged are not present?
Are we trying so hard to please you, but in the end we won't get any role?
You wouldn't do such a thing, would you?
Please be a human being for once, okay!
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun watched this scene from the side.
I couldn't help but laugh.
What a joke! How could Xiaochen arrange the roles like this?
Even if this is your arrangement, it is always possible to adjust the order, right?
It can also make everyone feel more comfortable.
Looking at everyone's strange looks, Su Chen also discovered something was wrong .
Well, it seems that I have overlooked something.
"Well... Actually, I just say whatever comes to my mind."
"I don't mean to favor anyone."
"Okay, I'll take it. I'll prioritize assigning roles to the people present."
"Yang Mi, play Cheng Yong's ex-wife!"
After hearing this, Yang Mi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After so much trouble, I finally got the role.
Although I don’t know how many scenes this role will have, being able to star in Chen Ge’s movie is a victory.
Su Chen's distribution continues:
"Zhao Liying, you play the role of Lu Shouyi's wife!"
"Thank you, Brother Chen."
After successfully getting the role, Zhao Liying immediately expressed her gratitude.
Brother Chen made her instantly famous, so Zhao Liying also didn't ask for too many roles.
"Liang Bo, you will play the role of Cheng Yong's brother-in-law Cao Bin."
"Jiang Chao, you play Pastor Liu."
"Yu Entai, you play the role of the drug dealer Zhang Changlin."
"Wang Junkai, you play the yellow-haired young man Peng Hao."
"Qianxi, you play my son, no... Cheng Yong's son Cheng Xiaoshu."
“…”
Su Chen arranged all the main roles in one go.
Of course, each person hears it differently.
Especially Qianxi.
They are all members of the Upward Boys group, but why is it that Wang Junkai plays the yellow-haired young man Peng Hao, while he plays the son of Cheng Yong?
This generation seems to have been shortened out of nowhere.
But in the end, everyone was happy and accepted the roles assigned by Su Chen.
Being able to star in Chen Ge's movie is a big step towards the goal of becoming a world-class superstar.
Everyone knows this.
But at this time, one person was unhappy.
"Brother Chen, where is my role?"
After waiting for a long time and seeing that everyone else got the role but herself, Deng Ziqi couldn't hold it in any longer.
Su Chen spread his hands:
"There is no suitable role for you in 'Dying to Survive'."
"Unless you're willing to play a minor role."
“…”
Hearing this, Deng Ziqi was speechless for a moment.
You know, she is already a world-class star at this time, why would she still come here to get a hook?
Isn't this too much of a loss of status?
Looking at Deng Ziqi's frustrated look, Su Chen smiled faintly.
There is a mischievous pleasure in my heart.
Girl, aren't you embarrassing me all day long?
Now I have finally gotten my revenge.
"Brother Chen, you didn't do this on purpose, did you?"
Seeing the evil smile on Su Chen's lips, Deng Ziqi suddenly realized something was wrong.
"I am a veteran of your studio. You won't abuse a veteran like this, right?"
Su Chen shook his head.
This girl is always like this and won't give in. It seems that it's her personality.
You can't be too picky with her right now.
"Since the story and characters of the movie 'Dying to Survive' are relatively simple, many people don't have many parts."
"As a remedy, I will also start a project to shoot a TV series for the world."
At this time, Su Chen put forward another plan of his own.
"Dying to Survive" is actually a story between three or five people. Isn't it a waste of resources to leave so many actors idle?
So Su Chen had already written the script for "Dying to Survive".
Prepared another TV drama script:
"Friends" Season 2!
Based on the huge success of the first season, Su Chen is confident that the ratings for the second season will be good.
Moreover, the roles of the artists from his own studio are also guaranteed.
Hearing Su Chen's words, everyone showed expectant eyes.
The TV series is long and has many characters, so it is indeed a good backup for everyone.
And for Brother Chen, the influence of TV series and movies seems to be not much different.
" What TV show?"
Deng Ziqi asked nervously.
Su Chen didn't beat around the bush at this time.
He directly took out the script of the second season of "Friends".
"I plan to film the second season of Friends at the same time!"
Hearing this, everyone at the scene suddenly realized.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun pinched their chins and nodded in praise.
Xiaochen is as reliable as ever!
The ratings and response of the first season were so good, to be honest, a second season should have been filmed a long time ago.
But Su Chen had focused on animation before, so Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun certainly couldn't say much.
Moreover, Su Chen has also created records in animation that have attracted the attention of the world.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun were so happy that they couldn't contain themselves.
But now, Su Chen is going to shoot the second season of "Friends", and they will definitely agree with it.
Countless successful cases have proved that making a sequel is more likely to guarantee ratings than making a completely new TV series.
"Oh yeah! That's great!"
"Brother Chen, this sequel came out too late!"
"Brother Chen Niu Bi!"
“…”
When the studio members heard the good news, they couldn't help but cheer.
Because they are very clear about how huge the influence of "Friends" is around the world at that time.
Once the sequel is released, not only will each of their roles be guaranteed, but their global influence will also be taken to a new level.
Seeing everyone so happy, Su Chen was very pleased.
After all, he is the boss of these people.
You must also consider your employees.
So the matter was settled like this.
Subsequently, Xingyi Media’s official website and Su Chen Studio announced the two news at the same time.
Su Chen’s fans were of course cheering for this.
"Finally, we have received the official announcement of the project!"
"I can't wait to see Chen Ge's new movie, but I know I won't have to wait too long! Because Chen Ge's efficiency has never let anyone down!"
"Friends Season 2 is coming out! Brother Chen is awesome!"
"It's finally here! To be honest, I've watched the first season of Friends ten times!"
"Well, I'm already numb! Although this is all great news, as a fan of Brother Chen, I actually think that all of this is natural!"
“…”
Of course, at this time, the remarks made by other stars’ die-hard fans were a bit sarcastic.
"This speed is incredible. I hope it's not a crude and shoddy product!"
"I am also impressed by Su Chen! He produces and releases more works in a year than others can in several lifetimes!"
"Is Su Chen really from our planet? Could he be Professor Do's reincarnation?"
“…”
However, under the current environment, these remarks are destined not to cause much waves.
And Su Chen would not even bother to read the comments of those trolls.
In the entertainment industry, there will be people who like you and people who hate you. It is impossible to win the love of everyone.
Su Chen had already seen through this.
Therefore, Su Chen devoted his main energy to the preparation work for film and television.
A week later.
The movie "Dying to Survive" started shooting first.
After a simple opening ceremony, the film officially entered the shooting stage.
It is said to be simple, but it is not simple at all.
Su Chen's original intention was to hold a simpler opening ceremony.
But today, Su Chen's influence is so great that his every move attracts the attention of entertainment media reporters.
Originally, only some reporters from mainstream media were invited to attend the ceremony.
However, after hearing the news, reporters from various entertainment media rushed over.
In this way, the simple ceremony was instantly transformed into a feast for the entertainment industry.
Su Chen was also helpless about this.
These are not things he can control.
But at the ceremony, Su Chen remained as consistent as ever and stuck to his own style.
He dismissed the entertainment reporters with a very concise answer.
After the one-hour ceremony.
Su Chen and the crew members immediately moved to another location.
Arrived at the shooting location that had been booked long ago.
Here, Su Chen will shoot the first scene of "Dying to Survive".
Su Chen carefully selected this scene.
Considering that the yellow-haired young man Peng Hao has quite a lot of important roles in the movie, however, the actor Wang Junkai who plays Peng Hao really lacks experience in acting in movies.
So Su Chen decided to guide Wang Junkai first and help him get into the state as soon as possible.
So, in the first scene, Su Chen filmed the "farewell party" of Cheng Yong, Huangmao Peng Hao, Lu Shouyi, Pastor Liu, and Liu Sihui.
After some makeup and preparation, everyone sat down in Cheng Yong's "Prince India Oil Shop".
"The 30th scene of "Dying to Survive", the first act, begins!"
“Bang!!!”
With a crisp clap of the board from the script supervisor, the filming of the movie officially began.
The background of the story is that Cheng Yong made his first fortune by selling Gleevec.
But then, a crisis arose. Since Gleevec is a generic drug, it involved very complicated legal disputes.
After the cheap Lenin sold by Cheng Yong entered the market, it caused a strong response.
The authorities then began to trace the source of this batch of Gleevec.
Cheng Yong's trafficking behavior became dangerous, and at this time Cheng Yong also received fierce threats from fake drug dealer Zhang Changlin.
After much deliberation, Cheng Yong, who had a common people's mindset, decided to withdraw.
So he found an excuse to gather Peng Hao, Lu Shouyi, Liu Sihui and others for a "farewell banquet".
But at this time, Peng Hao, Lu Shouyi and others did not know Cheng Yong’s true intention.
They thought it was a routine celebration party after a successful drug deal.
So, everyone ate and drank happily.
"Drink more! You must drink more!"
"Pastor Liu, you are so happy drink more!"
"Business is booming! Business is booming!"
"make persistent efforts!"
“…”
Huangmao Peng Hao, Lu Shouyi, Pastor Liu, and Liu Sihui, all four of them were very happy.
He totally failed to notice the gloomy look beneath Cheng Yong's forced smile.
Qianxi, who was standing by, watched everyone's performance and couldn't help but feel envious.
Brother Chen's Oscar-winning performance is something we can only admire. There is no comparison between him and a newbie like him.
Qianxi focused her attention on a few other people.
It would be fine if veteran actors like Yan Ni and Jiang Chao had strong acting skills.
Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with the performance of Teacher Xiaogang and his friend Wang Junkai.
This made Qianxi feel pressured immediately.
If Wang Junkai can perform well against the veteran actors, will he not be able to hold his own when it’s his turn on stage?
But of course, Qianxi also knew that the real test for his little friend Wang Junkai had not yet begun.
Wait a minute, Wang Junkai and Brother Chen will perform alone, and only then will his quality be tested.
After three rounds of wine, the dishes have five flavors.
Cheng Yong lit a cigarette and began to express his feelings:
"Let me tell you all something."
"It is fate that I met you."
"You guys call me Brother Yong, and I'm very grateful to you all."
At this time, several people had no idea what Cheng Yong was going to say next.
They all played the word chain game happily.
"Brother Yong!"
"Brother Yong!"
"Brother Yong!"
"You have to thank me three times! Hahaha..."
"But..."
“All good things must come to an end.”
"As for this medicine, I will not sell it starting tomorrow."
However, Cheng Yong's next words caused the scene to suddenly become eerily silent.
“…”
Lu Shouyi laughed and said tentatively:
"Drank too much again."
Because Lu Shouyi knew very well what Cheng Yong meant to him, that meant he could buy cheap life-saving drugs.
If Cheng Yong really stops selling Gleevec, then he will return to his previous miserable days of being unable to live or die.
Pastor Liu also echoed:
"This is not a joke."
Liu Sihui was also unwilling to believe it and patted Cheng Yong on the shoulder.
"What are you talking about!"
"What the hell is this!"
But at this time, Cheng Yong had already made up his mind.
"Starting tomorrow, I will not sell this medicine anymore."
“But there are other people selling it.”
