Chapter 661 City of Philharmonic
Emma Stone snuggled in Wang Shu's arms and asked, "Tree, are you going back to China?"
She had a feeling that Wang Shu was already a director with several Oscars, and after finishing filming "Interstellar" in collaboration with Paramount, he might return to China to make movies.
Wang Shu heard his words, pinched the opponent's face, and then got up and left the bedroom under the doubtful eyes of Sister Stone.
After a while, Wang Shu returned, holding a paper script in his hand.
Sister to the stone, said, "Look."
Even though she hadn't opened it yet, Sister Shitou had already judged that what Wang Shu was holding was a script, and her heart beat violently.
At this moment, the eyes she looked at Wang Shu were sparkling, filled with hazy mist, and very seductive.
Sister Shitou did not take it immediately, but held back her excitement and asked: "Is this for me?"
"Well, you play the heroine." Wang Shu squeezed Sister Shi's pretty face.
Sister Shitou pouted, her pretty face full of happiness.
She sat up from the bed without wearing clothes, and her upper body looked at the script so smoothly.
""LaLaLand" (La La Land)..."
Sister Shita said the name of the script, and then watched it seriously.
In fact, even if she doesn't watch the script, she will not want to agree.
Right now, the script is in hand, and look at it.
In the original timeline, the drama "La La Land" originally wanted to invite Emma Watson (Hermione from the Harry Potter series) to play the heroine, but Emma Watson declined due to schedule issues.
After that, I was not selected by Sister Stone.
Instead, Sister Stone passed many auditions and finally got the role.
As for her many auditions, whether to impress the producer by acting or attitude, or to impress the producer through other ways, this is another matter.
It is 2010. Although the time period of Sister Shito is more than 5 years earlier than starring in "The City of Philharmonic" in the original timeline. The performance of her acting skills is 5 years, and she must be worse.
But this is not a problem. Sister Shitou has the attitude of wanting to get ahead as an actress, and Wang Shu can train her.
After thinking about it in the past few days, I felt that it was better to shoot "The City of Philharmonic" earlier.
If it is not filmed, this script will be written by Damien Chazelle.
In the original timeline, the script for "La La Land" began around 2011.
Of course, the script is not created on the spot, but linear creation. After two and a half years, the script is completed with the music.
"The City of Philharmonic", as a song and dance film, can succeed in a large part of the music.
It happened that Wang Shu had previously written a single to the top of the North American bulletin board.
Nowadays, not only domestic, European and American regions also know that Wang Shu's talents are not only created by script, but also in music creation.
Therefore, the musical film "La La Land" can be regarded as the masterpiece of Wang Shu's talent.
This movie is not only a script written by Wang Shu, but also the theme song, interludes, etc. will be composed by him.
Furthermore, since we have already won the Oscar for Best Director in a row, why not try to win the Oscar for Best Director three times in a row.
There are two directors in the history who have won Oscars in a row, but there are no three directors in a row.
Since you already have two films, why not try to become the first director of three films?
After thinking about it, Wang Shu felt that he would not return to China, and filmed "The City of Philharmonic" in Los Angeles.
Sister Stone looked at Wang Shu on her head, and asked with excitement in her heart: "Tree, do you want to use this play to participate in Oscar?"
Of course, she knows that Wang Shu and Paramount's "Star Crossing" will also sign up for Oscar, but "Star Crossing" is a commercial film. Commercial films may be able to get a big prize in the Golden Globe Award, but it is difficult to get a prize on Oscar.
Therefore, Sister Shitou believes that Wang Shu may have thought about making another art film because he knew this and felt that "Interstellar" would not be able to compete for the Academy Awards.
"Yes." Wang Shu smiled.
Hearing this, Sister Shitou could no longer contain her excitement and couldn't help but ask: "You really want me to play the heroine?"
Seeing that Sister Stone was unbelievable, Wang Shu's eyes reached out and touched her pretty face gently, and whispered: "Of course!"
"Tree, you are so nice." Sister Stone fell into Wang Shuhuai, full of movement.
Wang Shushun stroked the back of Sister Shi, and he was never a ruthless person.
Sister Shitou has always been "active", and Wang Shu not only sees it, but also feels it.
Coupled with the original timeline of this "City of Philharmonic", it was starring Sister Stone.
Now it's time to hold her.
Sister Stone was lying in Wang Shu's arms for a long time, and Wang Shu said softly, "What do you think of this play?"
Sister Stone replied: "Although I haven't finished reading it, it feels good."
"Not to mention that you wrote the script, it must be very good."
Wang Shuxin knew that Sister Shi said was holding people's words, and couldn't laugh: "Song and dance film, now I do n’t eat incense in the box office, but if it is a art film, it is okay."
In fact, whether it is now or before the release of "La La Land" in the original timeline, musicals have declined in Europe and the United States.
In the original timeline, before being invested by Lionsgate, the director of "La La Land" encountered obstacles with the script of "La La Land". Major investors and producers believed that musicals had declined. , this script has no clue.
Later, "La La Land" was invested by Lionsgate Pictures and put on the big screen. With its dreamy song and dance sequences and sparkling box office performance, it rekindled the audience's enthusiasm for musicals, and this was the beginning of European and American musicals. revival.
For a while, many American dramas joined the elements of singing and dancing.
That is, in those two years, many American dramas were obviously irrelevant to song and dance. Suddenly, a few episodes of song and dancing came out ...
Despite the unscrupulous, the two years of North American audiences are good at singing and dancing films.
Today, "City of Philharmonic" was directed by Wang Shu and moved to the big screen. Maybe the revival of European and American song and dance films will be opened by him.
"Yeah." Sister Shitou responded, "When I first read the script, I was a little surprised that it was a musical, so I asked you if you wanted to participate in the Oscars."
Wang Shu gently stroked Sister Shitou's hair and said: "I am confident that this movie will be nominated for an Oscar."
"So, can you nominate the actor award, or the little golden man who gets the best actress, it depends on your performance in the movie."
When Sister Stone heard this, she looked up at Wang Shu, and then kissed Wang Shu's lips. She said seriously: "I will definitely perform well, but I may sometimes be lacking." >
"You are a great director, so be strict with me when the time comes."
"If I have a bad performance or imperfect, I will tell me."
After speaking, I kissed Wang Shu's lips again, and my eyes were serious again, "I have to help me talk more, teach me more, and point me."
"Don't think it's almost okay. You must feel satisfied or perfect."
"No matter how hard or tired I am, I won't say anything."
Speaking of which, my tone was mixed with begging, "I want to rush to the Oscar actor award."
When Wang Shu heard this, he rubbed Sister Shitou's head and said with a smile: "Don't worry."
After speaking, we teased again, "It's too harsh to you, don't blame me?"
"No." Sister Shi finished, kissed Wang Shu's lips.
Then, his eyes were blurred and kissed Wang Shu.
The two kissed for a while, and Wang Shu whispered in Sister Shitou's ear: "I want to try the back." "Yes." Sister Shitou did not refuse, but responded obediently.
At this time, even if Wang Shu made any request, she would not refuse.
The two adjusted their postures. Sister Shitou was a little nervous and couldn't help but remind her: "Shu, please slow down, this is my first time."
Wang Shu did not reply, but waved a slap first, then ...
...........
As Wang Shu decided to prepare the "City of Philharmonic", Paramon followed the casting.
Wang Shu has no production company in the United States due to visa problems.
Even if there is, it takes a certain amount of time to prepare in the early stage, and it is difficult to have human and material resources in the short time to complete the preparation of "The City of Elys."
Therefore, he chose to work with Paramount.
With the drama "Interstellar" as the premise for cooperation, although Paramount is not optimistic about "La La Land", it will not reject him.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
This time, the film will be co-produced by Wang Shu and Paramount.
Wang Shu chose to cooperate with Paramount, and there are also considerations.
As one of the eight largest companies in Hollywood, Paramount not only has global distribution capabilities, but also has great energy in the United States. Cooperating with Paramount can quickly use Paramount's manpower and material resources to attract the crew.
Especially since most of the scenes of "La La Land" were shot in Los Angeles, if Paramount coordinates, everything will become simple and smooth.
Furthermore, with the cooperation on "Interstellar", Wang Shu felt Paramount's respect for him.
The filming of the entire drama was basically done according to his wishes without any pointers.
This is why Wang Shu chose to continue to cooperate with Paramount.
After all, this "City of Philharmonic" is an art film. He has to control the whole process and does not want to cooperate with the film and television company who likes to draw hands.
As Paramount and Wang Shu joined the casting again, Hollywood shook instantly.
Wang Shunai is a director who has won Oscars, and the film he is co-producing with Paramount is an art film.
Everyone knows that it must be running in Oscar.
Thinking of Wang Shu is the best director of the two -player Oscar, this play must go to the three companies.
Since it is a three -company company, it will be Wang Shu's worries.
Realizing this, many Hollywood movie stars Wang Shu knew kept calling him.
However, Wang Shu’s cell phone was turned off.
Soon, some people learned that Wang Shu was preparing to prepare for the filming.
Just as Paramount is not optimistic about "City of Philharmonic", many Hollywood movie stars have clearly fallen.
Therefore, whether the song and dance film can be achieved, the heart is particularly drumming.
But in the blink of an eye, I remembered that Wang Shu had been questioned in various ways before, but Wang Shu was unexpectedly surprised again and again.
As a result, many people can't help but feel that although musicals are in decline, Wang Shu's musicals might be feasible?
Then, the idea of retreating was dispelled.
In any case, Wang Shu is a director who has won numerous Oscars, and his art films have never missed the top three major European films or Oscars.
Based on this, it is enough to win the role.
Late at night, Wang Shu turned on the phone.
It's late at night in the United States, but it's daytime in China.
Wang Shu thought about it with his mobile phone and dialed Yang Mi's phone.
"Hello, Director Wang." Yang Mi's voice sounded, and then she said in a resentful tone, "You called me suddenly, what's the matter?"
Yang Mi had always taken the initiative to contact Wang Shu. Wang Shu rarely contacted her, so her tone was a bit resentful.
Wang Shudang asked the tone of resentment and asked: "Do you have a trip recently?"
"Yes." Yang Mi replied, "I will enter the TV series in a few days."
When Wang Shu heard this, he thought for a while, it seemed like the drama "Gong Lock Heart Jade".
Yang Mi saw that Wang Shu was silent, and his heart was stunned, and he asked with some unbelievable way, "Wang Dao, you suddenly called me, wouldn't it be for me to make a show?"
"Um." Wang Shu didn't hide it. To be honest, "I have a play here. I originally planned to call you to play as the female No. 3. Since you have no schedule, then it is okay."
In the drama of "The City of Eleet", the female No. 3 is played by British Japanese actor Mizuno Sonoya.
This role can completely be replaced by a domestic actress.
As the director of Chinese film, Wang Shu came to the idea of carrying domestic actors.
He initially considered Mei Ting, Zhou Xun and others, but after careful consideration he felt it was inappropriate.
It is now 2010. Now that Sister Shitou has been confirmed to play the heroine, we have to find an actor of a similar age for the supporting role.
Both Mei Ting and Zhou Xun and others are too mature and do not fit the image.
If we insist on casting them, they will be very abrupt compared with the 22-year-old Sister Shitou.
Neither is Sun Li, whose image and temperament don't quite match her.
Her image is not age, but not matched with "City of Elys."
Simply put, actresses must not only exude a youthful and youthful atmosphere, but also have an "urban" atmosphere.
Fan Binbin is consistent.
But Fan Binbin is very beautiful and very "urban". She starred in the female No. 3, and it is likely to grab the limelight of the female stone sister No. 1. It will also be obtrusive, which is not good for the whole show.
Wang Shu thought about it, and felt that Yang Mi was more suitable.
This is not only old, but the appearance in "Little Times" also has the temperament of the script.
So, Wang Shu called Yang Mi.
Of course, Liu Yifei can also be suitable.
However, Wang Shu didn't think Liu Yifei would be willing to play the third female lead.
"Don't." Yang Mi heard Wang Shu's forgetting, and suddenly was anxious.
Wang Shu smiled and said: "I'm just a female lead. You have a schedule and can't act now, so what else can you do?"
Yang Mi was silent when she heard this.
The role she took was to play the heroine. Compared with the role of the third female lead, she was indeed more attractive.
However, Wang Shuru is now in Hollywood.
She subconsciously feels that although she is only female No. 3, she is likely not to be light.
