Chapter 812: Two Giants of Hollywood

There is no difficulty for Ye Ming. As a star whose acting skills exceed 1,100 points, even if it is a live performance without any props, Ye Ming still completes the performance very easily.

The expression in it is indeed exaggerated with a hint of cynicism, which is a matter of attitude towards life. Perhaps it is precisely because of such an attitude towards life that the agent chose to help Tom Cruise in such a situation.

Ye Ming may not necessarily say that his acting skills surpass those of two Japanese national treasures, Ken Watanabe and Ken Takakura, but at least he has one condition that is much higher than these two, that is, he knows what Spielberg is filming. A movie, and he knows what the movie "Minority Report" is like, and he knows more clearly what kind of performance this character needs to better meet the director's requirements.

This is an advantage for Ye Ming. He can understand more clearly how to interpret this role more appropriately. After watching Ye Ming's performance, Spielberg did not make any comments, and there was no visible change in the expression on his face. He did not say he was frowning, nor did he say he must deny Ye Ming's performance.

From Robin's point of view, this was already a pretty good result. If Spielberg frowned, it meant that Ye Ming had no hope at all.

As the absolute center of power of this crew, Spielberg has no need to save face for others. Maybe only Tom Cruise can make Spielberg consider it, but other actors, even Ye Ming and others have not yet passed During the audition, Spielberg had no reason to save face for Ye Ming.

It's good. It's a pretty good performance if Spielberg can't get angry.

Finally, Spielberg thought for a while and said: "Mr. Ye, I want to ask you a question. What do you think of prophecies like this? In other words, your personal views on the future."

This seems to be a question that has nothing to do with acting. If it were asked to other actors, they might have a blank expression because they would not know why Spielberg would ask such a question. of. But this question was faced by Ye Ming. Ye Ming knew very well that the Minority Report was actually about a prophecy.

Therefore, Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Prophecy, to use a Western saying, it is better to have ten birds flying than one bird in the hand. The future is uncertain."

Ten birds flying are not as good as having one bird in my hand. In fact, I am talking about ten birds flying in the sky. They are also other people's. It is not as good as having one of my birds in my hand.

Translated into Chinese terms, it means that you will be safe. If this is used to explain prophecies, it is more appropriate. At this time, Spielberg nodded, without agreeing or denying, and then said: "Okay, your audition ends here, just go back and wait for the notification."

Spielberg did not immediately say whether he would use Ye Ming, but asked Ye Ming to go back and wait for notification. This is a very high salary compared to the previous dozen Japanese actors. At least this means that Ye Ming still has a chance to join Spielberg's crew.

After coming out, Robin said happily: "Jenny, Ye, don't worry, the director didn't write you off right away. This is a good sign. It means that you are at least within his consideration range. Go back It will be announced soon, and I dare say that if the conditions are the same, the director will still choose someone from his own company."

Next, of course, is the waiting process.

However, Ye Ming did not have so much time to wait, and his affairs in the country also made people feel that there was not enough time. Even though the filming of "Slumdog Millionaire" has been postponed, Ye Ming still feels that there is not enough time at this time. There were many commercial performances that did not even come to Ye Ming's eyes, and were immediately dismissed by surprise.

Some of the programs that Ye Ming is currently participating in are actually not recommended. For example, there are too many of the same songs in Tianchao. This is a very classic program, but at this time, Ye Ming simply said that he was approached without any preparation. Came here, and was pulled over from the airport. This is something that even Ye Ming can't refuse.

Because this time the same song is the theme of the Olympic bid.

Every time the same song has a theme, this time is no exception. This time it is a party held to support the Olympic bid. Therefore, as the Olympic bid ambassador, Ye Ming did not refuse at all.

Moreover, this time even Brother Cheng Long, who is so busy, took the time to participate in the same song this time.

After all, we are all ambassadors for the Olympic bid, so it is our unshirkable responsibility to publicize the Beijing Olympic bid.

Backstage, Cheng Long and Ye Ming were waiting in a dressing room to go on stage. Big stars like Cheng Long and Ye Ming naturally have their own dedicated dressing rooms.

Even Tianchao TV will not challenge the bottom line of the entertainment industry casually. It is clear what level of dressing room is used by famous stars.

The eldest brother said something unexpected; "Ye Ming, what you did is a little wrong. After all, William Morris is a well-established agency. If you fall out with them, be careful that they will deal with you when you get to Hollywood. This It is no longer a question of whether or not, but a question of certainty. In such a matter, if they don't deal with you, there is no way to save their own face. Therefore, your journey in Hollywood will become very complicated. difficult."

Hearing this, Ye Ming knew that this was also what his elder brother meant, so he said helplessly without thinking: "Brother, I can't blame you for this. I don't want to terminate the contract with William Morris, but there are some problems that I have to deal with myself. I can’t control it. Someone from the company wants me to recommend actors to the Harry Potter set. If it’s a personal friend of mine, that’s okay, but it’s someone from the company, and not one. We can’t treat Chinese people as fools. , they have someone they want to promote.

And Harry Potter is so popular, everyone can see that if you have a role in it, it will be very helpful to your acting career. It's weird if Warner doesn't praise its own people.

Because of the story, I couldn’t even participate in this movie. People in the company asked me to recommend others to participate. Didn’t this force me to leave the company? As for the people in the company retaliating against me, anyway, there is innovation there and the contract is proof, so they obviously won't take any action. "

The United States is a contract society. If there is a contract, everything will be easier to handle. What's more, Creative Artists Agency is half of Hollywood. Although William Morris Agency is the oldest, it is the largest. Now everyone has to admit that it is Creative Artists Agency.

At this time, Ye Ming was in charge, and with the strong strength of innovation as his backing, he basically ignored the threat he posed to William Morris.

Cheng Long actually knew some of the inside story. Faced with such an ending, he actually felt very helpless.

Regarding a question about the situation in **, he could only say with emotion: "I originally hoped to cooperate with you next time, but I didn't expect that things would turn out like this. In a short period of time, we hope to cooperate with you." Sex is almost gone.”

William Morris Agency and Creative Artist Agency are sworn enemies. Therefore, if artists from the two agencies want to cooperate, it will be like Mars hitting the earth. It is almost impossible.

Therefore, Cheng Long felt emotional for a while. Ye Ming was the first to take the stage. This is a rule in the entertainment industry. When opening the show, there must be a star who can suppress the scene. Therefore, there must be a powerful and influential singer. And the person in the finale must be the biggest star. With Cheng Long here, no one else has to compete for the position of the finale. As the opening act, it must be Ye Ming.

This time, Ye Ming sang a very up-to-date song called "Invisible Wings", which was a very inspirational song. It would be the most appropriate song to support Beijing's bid for the Olympics.

There were more than 30,000 fans at the scene, and they were also keeping time to the rhythm of Ye Ming's singing. When Ye Ming finished singing and took the curtain call, the sound of the return was as loud as a tsunami.

An encore is the highest praise an audience can give an actor. Generally, only artists who perform extremely well will receive the honor of being returned by the audience on stage.

Unable to withstand everyone's cheers, the director team temporarily decided to let Ye Ming return to the stage. This time, the song Ye Ming sang was "Thousands of Miles Away", a very Chinese-style song. In the third performance, although the audience was very enthusiastic and wanted Ye Ming to return, at this time Ye Ming also knew that enough was enough. You always have to give other singers a chance to take the stage.

This is the same song, not Ye Ming's special concert. Therefore, after thanking everyone, Ye Ming said: "The Beijing Olympic bid needs everyone's support, so the stage will not be my own stage. Thank you everyone." , I hope everyone will be in a good mood today."

After exiting, it's time for the other singers to perform. (To be continued)
