Korean Entertainment: Predators in RM
Chapter 148
In a conference room in New York in mid-May 2017, in this weather that should have gone to the beach for surfing, Zai Dao was sitting there with David and Chad having a meeting to discuss"I Am" Sam's script
《"I Am Sam" mainly tells the story of a father with an IQ equivalent to that of a seven-year-old child, who competes with the relevant authorities for the custody of his daughter.
Sam is a mentally retarded person who works in a Starbucks coffee shop.
By chance, he took in a homeless woman and gave birth to a daughter with her. However, as soon as the daughter was born, the mother left without saying goodbye, leaving Sam and the young daughter to depend on each other.
Sam named his daughter Lucy because he particularly loved listening to the Beatles'"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds."
With the help of a group of friends with mental disorders, Sam raised his daughter alone. Although there were always some mistakes, he lived a happy life.
Lucy grew up smoothly. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also smart. Although she was only 7 years old, her intelligence had surpassed that of Sam. Sam could no longer cope with many of the questions raised by his daughter.
In order not to make her father sad, the well-behaved Lucy deliberately accommodated her father's intellectual level, which was obviously not conducive to Lucy's intellectual and emotional development.
This special pair of father and daughter attracted the attention of social workers. They believed that Sam was no longer suitable to raise Lucy, so they took Lucy away from him and found a normal couple as adoptive parents for her.
Unwilling to lose his daughter like this, Sam decided to hire female lawyer Rita to help him fight for custody rights.
Although Rita is smart and capable, she is a bit selfish and only cares about herself.
At first, she felt that this case was impossible to win and did not want to take it. She just couldn't stand the provocation of her colleagues. In order to prove to everyone that she also cared about social welfare, she reluctantly took it.
To her surprise, during her contact with Sam, Rita was moved by Sam's deep, sincere, and unconditional fatherly love for Lucy, and realized that Sam, like normal people, had the right to be with her daughter.
At the same time, during the trial of the lawsuit, Rita gradually sorted out her life. For many years, she had neglected her son and family for work. It was Sam who prompted her to reflect and return to the embrace of her family.
Logically speaking, this kind of movie should be easy to shoot. After all, it mainly depends on the acting skills between the protagonists, plus a mature plot.
But there are still many things that are very debatable. The first point is the issue of actors.
《The movie"I Am Sam" was released in 2001 in its previous life, but the world in Zaidao is already 2017.
The difference in the timeline means that he is destined to not be able to choose the supporting roles from the original script like the previous movie.
Dakota Fanning, who plays her daughter Lucy, is already 23 years old and obviously cannot play Lucy. The female lawyer is also 59 years old and obviously does not meet the independent and capable female lawyer in the script.
So what Zaidao and David are discussing now is officially about the casting of the other two people.
Chad, who was holding the coffee, leaned on the chair with one hand, stood aside and raised his glass:"I think we need to hire an actress with popularity and acting skills, and she can't be too old. From the looks of it, the only one who has schedules recently is Emilia. Clark, and Elizabeth Olsen.
Emilia and Elizabeth, one played the role of Mother Dragon in"Game of Thrones" and the other played Wanda in"The Avengers".
These two actresses are among the actresses currently scheduled in Hollywood, with good popularity and good acting skills.
Logically speaking, Chad's recommendation was very good, but David on the side complained:"Chad, they are very good, but Emilia's height is only 158com. It doesn't fit the character at all."
"Moreover, both of their salaries are too high. Don’t forget that we are positioning this film as a low-cost, heart-warming film."
"Okay, let’s invite Amber Heard’s head office, right?"Hearing David's words, Chad shrugged, and then added:"After all, this woman has been very popular recently."
Amber Heard, who later played Mera in"Aquaman".
Since she and Depp started divorce proceedings last May, her popularity has not diminished. During this period, she has always insisted that she was divorced by Depp. It can be said that Pu's domestic violence has won the sympathy of many directors in Hollywood. However, as someone who knows a little bit of the truth, Zaidao will not agree to her starring in her own movie. After all, she does not like controversial actresses.
After discussing with Chad, Zaidao, who was sitting in the main seat, said,"How about inviting Kate Dennings?"
"Kate Dennings? Oh~ Han, are you serious? She doesn't fit the character at all, and she doesn't have much box office appeal."
When he heard that Zai Tao wanted to invite Kate Dennings, David had rejection written all over his body.
Although Kate Dennings had appeared in"Broke Sisters" and won a good reputation among TV audiences, she had not appeared in
Although"I Am Sam" is a low-budget movie, Zaidao and the others have just released"Quick", so they have the rashness to invite a not-so-famous actress to play the leading role in the movie. Some...ahem!
Faced with David's rejection, Zaidao smiled and said:"Dai Linsi's popularity in East Asia is quite good, and I think she should also want to expand her acting career, maybe she will Low paid acting"
"Anyway, she doesn't have many human roles, so she's not actually a heroine."
"Um...this……"After hearing what Zaidao said, David and Chad stopped talking, because everything Zaidao said was on point.
After being silent for a long time, David spread his hands and said:"OK! I admit, you won. If that's the case, then let Rita star in her. I hope this guy won't screw up."
"Haha~" Looking at David's helpless look, Zaidao added Dai Linsi's name behind the Rita candidate on hand, and then continued to ask:"So about Lucy's candidate?……"
"Han, it’s hard to find female child stars in Hollywood these days, we have too few candidates.
"Seeing Zaidao turning the topic on Lucy's candidate, David and the others also had a headache.
Zha.
There are only a handful of female child stars in Hollywood in recent years.
If they have to find a suitable candidate for Lucy, then It can only be McKenna Grace.
Kenna Grace was born in 2006 and Wan Zai is already 11 years old.
This does not match the eight-year-old Lucy in the play, but there is no way.
There is no more suitable white female child star.
And in terms of acting skills alone, after all, Grace has appeared in several movies and TV series, and her acting skills are definitely very good.
Thinking about it this way, Zaidao felt that he had no choice but to choose this young actress who had acted in"The Bad Seed".
After the starring roles were decided, the next thing was much simpler. It was nothing more than poaching some people from TV series who had acting skills but not outstanding looks to serve as other supporting roles.
After doing it this way, the investment cost of the film is just over US$7 million. This can be considered a small production in Hollywood where big productions have been rampant in recent years.
After the actors were decided and the funds were in place, the next days became much easier. It was just a matter of confirming the actors and waiting for filming.
As the leading actor and main director, Jae Tao seemed much more relaxed after handing over the script and casting orders for other roles.
After all, there were two assistant directors, so he didn’t have to worry about anything too trivial, so he let himself go on Youtube, Instagram and Twitter.
The account that had not been updated for several months began to be updated frequently.
During this period, he also found the two puppies from David's house that were used in the filming of"John Wick".
Because David liked them more than Zaidao, he adopted them both.
It was originally a member of David's warm family, but now it has become a tool dog that carries Dao every day.
However, due to his activeness, his accounts on various platforms have increased in followers very quickly. In one week, the number of INS fans has exceeded 32 million from more than 29 million, making him the most INS fans in Asia. The skyrocketing number of male star's TOP1 fans, plus millions of likes per post, proves that Zaidao's fans are not zombie fans, and today Zaidao posted another set of daily routines.
In the photo, Zaidao is sitting by the swimming pool in his yard. There are a few bottles of beer on the small white round table, and two dogs are lying next to the legs of the chair.
Just two hours after the photo was posted, it had more than 400,000 likes, and there were more than 40,000 messages below.
Because Zai Dao paid attention to Kwang Soo and Uncle Nose, he saw their comments when he opened it.
Kwang Soo: Please remember the movie you owe me.
Uncle Nose: Is this LA? The weather in LA is nice...
Zhong Guo: @ Uncle Uncle. This is obviously New York.……
"Are all these guys so free?"Looking at the comments of the three people, Zaidao almost died laughing. He is not good at being funny on the show. He usually has to show off when surfing the Internet.
Thinking about it, Zaidao crossed these three brothers and some Han Guo Artist friends, I directly read the comments of some fans below:
If I didn’t know that this man is thirty years old, I would have thought that he had just turned 17. Fans of Han Country
: Why hasn’t Oppa returned to Han Country to film RM? ?
Huachao fans: It’s obviously just one photo, but three bottles of wine and three singles were squeezed into it.……
"……"Looking at these comments, it turns out that Huachao fans are the best no matter where they are when it comes to chatting.
When he thought of being scolded as a singleton again, Zai Dao immediately took a screenshot and sent it to Jin Baozhi using KKT, with the caption:"On the 7th day of the underground relationship, I silently shouldered everything by myself again.……"
"Mo? I can't understand!"
As soon as Zai Dao sent the message, Jin Zhushuang replied instantly and said that he could not understand Traditional Chinese.
Seeing Zhixiu's incompetent rage, Zai Dao had no choice but to translate and explain to him. After listening, Jin Zhushuang said She said she had received a critical hit, but after a few seconds she said calmly:
"Ani~ If you think about it this way, Oppa is the one, not me."
"Why aren't you? It's obvious that you are also a solo person."Hearing Zhixiu's words, Zaidao said speechlessly
"NO~NO~NO~Oppa, you don’t know what I enjoy every night."Having said this, Zhixiu sent a photo of herself to Zaidao while talking on the phone.
In the dark room, Zhixiu's little face was illuminated by the mobile phone screen, and behind her, LISA could be vaguely seen. face that has fallen asleep
"……"For a moment, Zai Dao didn't know whether he envied 1isa or Ji Soo.
But as soon as this thought came up, Zai Dao suddenly remembered something, and then asked Ji Soo on the other end of the phone:"Ah! Did you stay up late playing games again?"
Zai Dao only reacted after looking at the photo. Come here, it should be three o'clock in the morning in Han Country, and this girl actually replied to the message so quickly, she was obviously playing a game.
Sure enough, when Jae Do said this, Ji Soo let out a giggle.
"Hehe~ Oppa, you guessed wrong, I just woke up, I went to bed very early yesterday, and sure enough, Oppa didn’t understand my point~"
Faced with Zaidao’s wrong guess, Jin seized the opportunity. Batting immediately started a verbal counterattack, but with her not-so-smart mind, Zaidao said,"I won't be able to catch you if you don't speak."
When Zaidao heard that Zhixiu said that she went to bed very early, and then added the time to get up at two or three o'clock, no matter how he calculated, Zhixiu's sleeping time would not exceed 7 p.m., because as long as no one called her When I wake up, I can basically sleep for a long time.
Thinking about it, the reason why I went to bed so early was either because I didn't sleep well playing games the day before or because of work.
But when I called Jixiu yesterday, around ten o'clock, she clearly said that she had finished work and was off work. She went back to the dormitory, and he told her to go to bed early and stop playing games...
Good guy, she didn't obey and started playing games again!
When he thought about Jixiu staying up late to play games last night, Zai Dao immediately said in a harsh tone, He squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth:"Zhixiu, if you stay up late like last night, then I will bribe 1isa with food and let her throw away your computer.……"
"��right! Oppa! There is no such thing!"As soon as she heard that Zai Dao was going to throw away her precious computer, Zhi Xiu immediately panicked.
However, when she panicked, Zai Dao was even more certain that she must have stayed up late playing games last night. Otherwise, according to her personality, if she hadn't played, she would have immediately"laughing" at myself
"Ye Xi (as expected), you stayed up late last night, right? I stayed up late and participated in the recording of the MV today. Wow~ you are really full of energy, Ms. Kim Ji-soo.……"
"Hehe~ Oppa, I said I was in a bad mood yesterday because I didn’t do a good job hosting the show, so I played games. It’s not what you think. I definitely didn’t play all night because of addiction!
Facing Zai Dao's"sarcasm", Jin Chunqiu almost swore to God, and Zai Dao also responded with a sneer:"In a bad mood?""
"Uh-huh!"
"You 640 posted a food update yesterday, saying it was a beautiful day, and now you say you are in a bad mood? You said... is your own statement true?"
Listening to Zhixiu's voice and realizing that the other party still wanted to quibble, Zaidao sneered, and Zhixiu on the other side of the phone also understood.
I guess I fell down today, but I will still be able to stand up tomorrow. I am the one who can bend and stretch. That’s the golden shot, so……
"Oppa, I was wrong~ I swear not to play computer for one day as a punishment to myself."
Zhixiu said while putting her hand on her chest. She was very solemn, but her expression was disapproving, with an expression of"I failed today, but I will still dare tomorrow."
Of course, it is impossible for Zai Dao not to know Zhixiu's little I thought, but then I thought, let her go today, she will definitely not be able to play the game tomorrow anyway.
"Forget it, now that you've woken up, you can go play games and I have to get something to eat."Zai Dao said this with compassion.
"ah? real? Oh yeah~ Oppa, I have promised you not to play games……"Despite what she said, Ji Soo moved extremely quickly.
He turned over and got up from the bed. He took three steps and two steps, and directly pressed the power button of the computer host. He was afraid that he would hear the sound of the fan of the host machine rotating, so he even covered the radio part of his mobile phone.
As soon as the computer was turned on, Zhixiu turned down the sound of the speaker, then chatted with Zaidao with a sad face, pretending to be reluctant to leave, while skillfully opening the game and logging in to the account.
This little move successfully evaded Zaidao, so Zaidao hung up the phone after saying goodbye without noticing.
But as soon as the phone was hung up, a smile appeared on Zaidao's lips, and he relaxed all afternoon. It wasn't until ten o'clock in the evening that he called Minhyuk.
With a beeping sound, Min Hyuk, who had just arrived at the company within a few seconds, answered Jae Dao's phone.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
"Ani, have we produced our new autumn products from the cold country this year? I want to have the spokesperson shoot the magazine tomorrow, by the way, it’s morning"
"Nei, of course, I'll make arrangements now."Hearing what Zai Dao said, Min Hyuk didn't think much and just turned around and asked his secretary to make arrangements.
"Brother, is there anything else?"
"Well, it's okay. You should pay more attention to rest. If that's the case, it's time to find a girlfriend."After hearing that Min Hyuk had arranged the shooting, Zai Dao explained.
Faced with Zai Dao's urging, Min Hyuk also smiled and said:"Brother, you haven't found a girlfriend yet, how can I find one? I have to wait until you find a girlfriend, brother, and I will look for you again."
"Haha~ That's almost it. I will get married before 35, so you don't have to worry. After saying that, Zai Dao chatted with Min Hyuk for a few more words, and then hung up the phone with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Zai Dao looked at Ji Soo's KKT and said with a smile:"After playing games for a day, I found that the second I have work the next day. I guess you will have to lie down for a few days like last time.……"
Poor Jin Chuxing didn't know that tomorrow, which was supposed to be a rest day, would actually be arranged for her to work under Zai Dao's control.
If she knew, she would probably put down the keyboard right now, turn around and fall into the warm bed.
It's a pity that everything is late. I wanted to be careful with Zai Dao, but the golden ball was still a bit weak..._
