Chapter 241 Lao Jiang: Give me a role!

Had dinner.

Fan Qiaoqiao took Da Tiantian to go shopping.

The opening ceremony of Cannes will be held in two days, and I guess both of them will be very busy by then.

While I still have some free time, let's go shopping around.

Fan Qiaoqiao also took the opportunity to explain some small details of the film festival to Da Tiantian.

Zhou Mo was strolling around the hotel.

Suddenly, I felt a tap on my shoulder.

"Oh, fuck!"

Turn around.

Jiang Wen’s big face appeared before his eyes.

In the dim light, the light from the cigarette in front of Lao Jiang made his expression a little blurry.

"You scared me."

"You can't be so timid, Xiao Mo. How come you have become so timid after not seeing you for some time?"

Zhou Mo glanced at Jiang Wen.

"This isn't China. I don't know anyone around me. I was suddenly photographed by someone. I must have been shocked."

Upon hearing this, Lao Jiang hugged Zhou Mo.

"It's okay, I'll protect you."

Zhou Mo quickly broke free from Lao Jiang's arms.

He complained: "I remember Sister Yun has warned you several times, it's been several years, why do you still like to hug people's shoulders... and isn't your hotel over here, why are you here?"

Everyone knows that Jiang Wen likes to hug people.

And then he hugged this one and then that one.

It is also easy to connect seamlessly.

Sometimes Zhou Yun complained that he had a mixed smell.

Jiang Wen chuckled: "It's because you didn't come over when I called you, so I came directly to find you to keep in touch with you."

"Where did I say I wouldn't go? Isn't the party after the opening ceremony?"

"That's the big one. You didn't agree to the small one before."

Zhou Mo shook his head, very resistant.

"If I join the big ones, it proves that I am part of the group. If I join the small ones, forget about it. It's really meaningless. A bunch of people sit there eating and drinking, and can't talk about anything serious. It's better to take a nap."

Given his relationship with Lao Jiang, there is no need to hide anything.

Jiang Wen didn't take it seriously.

He knew that Zhou Mo and Xiao Gangpao had two different personalities.

Apart from the fact that both of them have a tacit understanding when it comes to arguing with others.

At other times, the little guy likes to be lively and participate in awards everywhere. Even going to a college film festival will make him happy for several days.

Zhou Mo is just the opposite, let alone the College Student Film Festival.

He didn't even participate in the three gold medals.

"So I came to find you."

Zhou Mo shuddered, unable to bear Jiang Wen's tone: "Old Jiang, you... are not right. Just tell me, what are you doing here tonight?"

Seeing this, Jiang Wen didn't keep the matter in suspense.

He said bluntly: "Want to play a role in my movie?"

Zhou Mo raised his eyebrows, a little curious: "Haven't you already decided on the actors? Wen Zhang and Teacher Ge, are there any roles you can give me?"

Jiang Wen waved his hand: "No, just a cameo to help boost the traffic of my movie."

He added: "Don't worry, it won't be a big part, just one or two shots, and then you will be finished."

Zhou Mo was happy.

"Director Jiang, you really have thoroughly implemented the habit of letting other directors make cameo appearances. You called Xiao Gangpao in Bullet, and now you call me. I remember you said that you would shoot three films in the Republic of China, so who are you going to call for the next one? Brother Kaizi or Lao Mouzi?"

Jiang Wen hissed.

He had never thought about this question before.

But if you think about it carefully, you really need to analyze it carefully.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Just tell me whether you agree or not." Jiang Wen asked.

"Just go." Zhou Mo didn't care.

It's just a guest appearance anyway.

It doesn't take much effort.

And even if "One Step Away" fails, it has nothing to do with him.

You can even earn some acting points.

However, after Zhou Mo finished speaking, Jiang Wen still looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

He stared at Zhou Mo but didn't say a word.

It seemed like he was waiting for Zhou Mo to speak.

Zhou Mo was very surprised: "Lao Jiang, what's wrong with you tonight? Why are you so hesitant when speaking, just like Hu Wan."

"You are Hu Wan, your whole family is Hu Wan." Jiang Wen glared, then asked: "Since I am going to invite you to star in "One Step Away", don't you have any expression of your gratitude?" Expression?

What does it mean?
Zhou Mo didn't quite understand Jiang Wen's purpose, but he did understand a meaning behind it.

The latter is very confident about "One Step Away".

"What do you want me to help you with? Just tell me."

"Let me also play a role in your movie." Jiang Wen couldn't hold it in any longer and finally told the truth.

"Movie? That movie? I haven't made any movies yet."

"Cold Wind!"

Jiang Wen said, "You're just playing dumb with me." He said, "I heard from Lao Han that your play is set to be held in Sakura, and the big boss there will be shot dead. I won't say much to you. Just give me a role so that I can stand out."

Zhou Mo finally understood.

Why has Lao Jiang been so hesitant tonight?

It turns out that he wanted to give Jin Sansang a ride.

He was not surprised by Jiang Wen's idea.

Lao Jiang already admired Taizu very much, and he didn't really like the energy of Sakura.

"Okay, then I'll assign you a role as the mastermind. The gun that killed Jin San-sang will be made by you. How about that?"

Lao Jiang clapped his hands.

"That's great."

"I know you are very happy, but don't be happy yet. There is one thing I need to explain to you in advance."

Zhou Mo first reminded, "I have already written the script for the movie Cold Wind. It is a purely commercial film. Although it will reveal some of the situation in Sakura, it will definitely not be much, and it will not be particularly profound. If you want to come and shoot it, you can, but you can't interfere with the filming like you did when you worked with Lao Mouzi before."

When Jiang Wen heard this, he glanced at Zhou Mo.

Based on his past habits, filming a movie must go smoothly.

Once things don't go your way, you have to change the script.

But he also knew Zhou Mo's temper.

Tell the truth.

I definitely wouldn't agree to him interfering in the filming.

If another director had said this to him, he would probably have argued with the other person a long time ago.

But the problem is that he really wants to shoot "Cold Wind".

Took a deep puff of cigarette.

"Okay, I agree. But you have to let me read the script before you film my role. If the character setting and plot are not suitable, I will definitely not agree."

Zhou Mo waved his hand: "Don't worry, I will never let you down."

We have finished discussing the important matters.

The two returned to the hotel.

"Come to think of it, I originally thought you weren't going to come this time. The filming of One Step Away should have already started, so why are you here again?"

Jiang Wen: "First, I came here to promote it. Anyway, One Step Away will not be released until next year at the earliest, so I came here once this year to maintain the popularity.

In addition, Wen Zhang has to promote "The Detective" recently, and I think he can't calm down, so we might as well start filming later."

Zhou Mo tutted his words and said, "Times have really changed. With your personality as Director Jiang, would you actually give Wen Zhang some time?"

"That can't be helped. There are so many male actors in the country, but he's the only one who meets the requirements of the role. What can I do if I don't give him time?"

Jiang Wen glanced at Zhou Mo and said, "I would like to change someone, but I don't think they would agree."

Zhou Mo didn't say anything.

Zhou Mo knew that Jiang Wen had always wanted him to play the role of Wu Qi ever since he wrote the script of "One Step Away".

So you can't talk at this time.

If he says anything out of softness, given Lao Jiang's character, he will definitely drag him down.

Jiang Wen waited for a long time, but Zhou Mo didn't make any statement.

I feel a little disappointed.

He sighed, "Forget it, let's talk about the movie. You asked me to help you arrange a seat before, and I have prepared everything for you. I have been busy with "One Step Away" these two days, and I didn't remember to ask you, how are the arrangements going after your company took over?"

"It's almost done. The exhibition hall and other things are ready. Now we just have to wait for the opening ceremony and have a movie every day to promote it."

"Do you want me to recommend you some directors?" Jiang Wen asked. "Even good wine needs to be hidden in a remote alley. You are the best at publicity in China. Don't be confused when you come out. Get to know the people you need to get to know."

He was worried that Zhou Mo had just arrived and might not be familiar with some of the procedures.

Zhou Mo has no objection.

"It would be nice to know some people. You happen to know a lot of people. Recommend a few to me when the time comes."

He has always been quite curious about Jiang Wen’s circle of friends.

After all, he is the one who can teach Quentin to be “awesome”.

In addition to this, there is also Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey?

However, the latter seemed to be imprisoned for a period of time due to a lawsuit.

"no problem."

Jiang Wen waved his hand and said, "Besides, I know a few film producers. I'll recommend them to you when the time comes, so you don't have to run around when you come back in a couple of days."
