171 Chapter 171 the devil
The audience was the most forgetful. Nowadays, celebrities and idols were emerging one after another. If Jiang se wanted to dominate a certain market, she could not fade out of the public’s attention.
Xia Chaoqun could make arrangements for some news and exposure, but Jiang se should have a presentable piece of work as well. Only then would her exposure be even more outstanding and serve as a foil to her.
starting from Zhang Jingan’s ‘rescue mission’, you’ve taken on three other roles. However, whether it’s Gu Jiaer’s work or Zhao rang’s movie, they’re all unremarkable supporting roles. Although she had taken on a more important role in ” event of Beiping, ” she was still a supporting character.
Jiang se could not continue acting as a supporting role. Otherwise, she would easily leave the impression that she had been a ‘supporting role for 10000 years’ in the audience’s minds. They would think that she could not shoulder the responsibility of being the main actor.
“The company is currently trying to negotiate for these three scripts.”
Jiang se reached out to take it. Xia Chaoqun rubbed his forehead.
“Take a look and tell me the result.”
Two of the three scripts were similar in genre. They were both romance literary films. Jiang se skimmed through them briefly. The scripts were not bad. They were written by well-known scriptwriters. One of the scripts was directed by Gu Jiaer, whom Jiang se had worked with once before.
Gu Jiaer was already very satisfied with filming a romantic literary film. If he took on filming his movie, he would not have to worry about the audience, box office, and reputation.
Romance films did not have particularly high requirements for acting skills. Moreover, it was very easy for them to gain fans. Jiang se had good looks, so acting in such films would be very beneficial to her current development.
However, she hesitated for a moment and put down the information of another romantic literary film. She opened the last folder and the film title was written on it: ‘The devil’.
She flipped through the documents. Xia Chaoqun frowned but did not stop her.
Compared to the previous two movies with sweet love elements, this movie called ” demon ” was undoubtedly much gloomier.
The first part of the story started with a mother receiving a call from her daughter.
Zhang Yuqin was a salesperson working in an insurance company. Every day, she had to deal with one different customer after another. She had to work so hard just to give her daughter, ZhuZhu, a better life.
Her husband was an ordinary salesman who had been worn out by life. He had a meager salary, but he hated society for being unfair to him.
He was weak and timid outside, always smiling and lowering his head to others, but at home, he had a bad temper and would flare up at his family at any time.
His life was poor, his work was not smooth, and the life of a small employee for ten years had numbed him. It made him addicted to drinking, and when he got drunk, he would make a lot of noise at home.
Zhang Yuqin placed all her hopes on her daughter. The feelings between her and her husband had long been very faint. She only hoped to take care of her elder daughter well, and her life would be over.
The monotonous days were only broken when Zhu Zhu went missing one day.
Zhang Yuqin, who had lost her daughter, began to go crazy. In the process of tracking down her daughter’s whereabouts, she found out that her daughter had long been killed. This terrible fact destroyed all her hope in life.
And Zhang Yuqin was the female lead of the movie ” demon.
The female lead was not beautiful. Even if she was once beautiful, life had worn away her edges. From the brief introduction, Jiang se could already roughly picture the image of a middle-aged woman in her mind. This alone was not very eye-catching.
I have to remind you that this female lead is completely different from the ‘goddess’ character in ‘the 99th love letter’.
Xia Chaoqun’s expression was a little strange. She could tell that Jiang SE’s interest in ‘demon’ far exceeded that of the previous two movies.
However, between the two movies with romantic elements, Jiang se would have no problem being the female lead in either of them.
Even the audience would be very accepting of her acting in such a movie. After all, as long as she was beautiful enough, she already met half of the character setting.
No matter which one of the two films she chose to film, it would be beneficial to Jiang se at the moment. However, if she chose ” demon “, it would be a test of her acting skills.
Jiang se tilted her head and looked at Xia Chaoqun with a smile.
“Sister Chaoqun, you also think that this film is not bad, right?”
Xia Chaoqun didn’t reply, but he didn’t deny either.
I’ve briefly read through ‘demon’. The scriptwriter of this film is a newbie and has been working on it for six to seven years. He’s been looking for investors and selling the script everywhere.
Xia Chaoqun glanced at the script in Jiang SE’s hand.
“The company has just bought the script and is preparing to invest in it.” At this point, she revealed a smile.
it’s because I heard that people from Jiang-Nan entertainment are also trying to get in touch with this director.
Xia Chaoqun had never been willing to suffer losses. Jiang Nan entertainment had the intention to suppress the artistes under her management. Of course, she couldn’t let Jiang Nan entertainment get what they wanted and get the rights to ‘demon’ first.
Of course, although he had the intention of repaying Jiang Nan entertainment, business was business. Luo Yin first felt that the story of the movie was good and had a certain value before selling it.
if you want to pick this script, you have to be mentally prepared. This is different from your image.
The character image of Zhang Yuqin in the film was really too complicated. In the early days, she lived like stagnant water, day after day. Her daughter was her everything. Later on, her daughter’s disappearance and murder caused a heavy blow to her, and all of this required acting skills.
Jiang se was too young. She was only 18 years old and was still in a relationship that had not experienced any setbacks. She did not understand marriage, family life, and the feelings for her own flesh and blood.
She had never lost anything and had never experienced the torture of life. It was difficult for her to express the complexity of the role of Zhang Yuqin in the film. once the acting fails, your reputation will be ruined. Have you thought about the consequences? ”
No matter how good the script was, it also needed a good actor to set it off, and neither could be lacking.
Once Jiang se could not support this script, even if she was given a first-class director and the best Actor, she would only be suppressed. She would not be able to play the role of Zhang Yuqin well and would only waste the script.
The biggest problem was that if she screwed up, she would have ‘no acting skills’,’ expressionless face’, and even the box office losses would make the audience blame her, giving her the title of ‘box office poison’. At that time, it would be difficult to save her even if a large amount of money was accumulated.
Xia Chaoqun leaned back on the sofa and sized Jiang se up with narrowed eyes.
“Think about it carefully and tell me which one you’ll choose.”
“Sister Chaoqun, I still want to choose ‘the demon’.”
Jiang se naturally understood what Xia Chaoqun meant. She also understood the consequences of choosing this film. If she was not careful, it would have a huge impact on her future.
