Chapter 321 The feeling of being a boss

"Are you serious?"

Liu Tianwang was stunned for a moment, seeing that Ding Cheng didn't look like he was joking, and said in surprise: "Of course I can't ask for it!"

"I also have artistic pursuits, okay?" Ding Cheng scolded with a smile, "I can't make enough money in my life. It would be a pity to miss good works and favorite characters, right?"

King Liu was very happy. To be fair, he really had no intention of letting Ding Cheng play the role. The 2000 million salary was no joke. To be honest, it was higher than the commercial value of the so-called King himself!
"How about this, your remuneration counts as 50.00% of the shares, how about a co-producer at the end?"

Ding Cheng waved his hand, it must be a non-profitable business, it doesn't matter what name it is.

The main reason is that the script is good. The old CID played by me is very challenging. It is impossible to go all the way to the box office now. He has really become a businessman!

The most important thing is the theme, which is very profound, like an extremely sharp scalpel, which cuts open all the hidden problems of Hong Kong Island and exposes them to the sun.

Adapted from a real case, Wang Jiamei, a 16-year-old girl from southern Hunan, came here following in the footsteps of her remarried mother and sister. The new and unfamiliar environment made her feel out of place, and her relationship with her family gradually became tense.

Dreaming of becoming a model, she entered the industry as an assistant, tasted all the bitterness, bitterness and sweetness, lost her nature and finally sold her body to make money.

Until one day I met the fat boy Ding Zicong who had a tragic childhood experience, and the fate of the two turned towards tragedy at the same time...

Play the role of Zang SIR who is in charge of the case, and re-examine the story of the two from the perspective of a third party, like two sad rivers, finally converging into the water of the underworld mixed with blood and tears...

As a director, Weng Ziwen was even more pleasantly surprised. He never imagined that Ding Cheng would actually be willing to act in his own work?
"Don't worry, it's up to a month!" Afraid that the night would be full of dreams, he hurriedly promised: "Film your scene first, and there will be absolutely no delay..."

"You must take a good shot!" Ding Cheng interrupted him suddenly, and said seriously: "Because your work has attracted me, you must take it seriously, otherwise it will be a waste, understand?"

Watching the director leave, Liu Tianwang looked at Ding Cheng and joked, "How does it feel to be your own boss?"

"tired!"

Ding Cheng sighed, leaned on the sofa, and exclaimed, "I'm tired!"

"Hahaha..." Liu Tianwang couldn't stop laughing, it was rare to see this kid deflated, and joked: "Now you understand the benefits of wage earners?"

"Listen to my advice: money..."

"Never run out of money!"

Liu Tianwang said earnestly: "When you come to our realm, you can live comfortably without worrying about food and clothing, and you can be regarded as financial freedom. The most important thing is not to be too tired to live!"

Ding Cheng nodded and asked back, "That's why you voted for this type of movie?"

"Hey, there's nothing we can do!" Liu Tianwang complained: "If I don't vote, you don't vote, and he doesn't vote either, who will vote?"

"Apart from me, only Goo Jai is willing to vote for a few new works every year. Zhang Jiahui doesn't like to vote for other people's things. He plays all by himself. As a result..."

"It's getting harder and harder for newcomers to get ahead, especially in Hong Kong, where there are so many people and so much competition. It's better in the mainland. After all, there's a lot of money. After a few years, there's always time to get ahead."

"Look here, young people are running around every day to get enough food, let alone dreams..."

"Even living is not easy!"

These words reminded Ding Cheng of the days when he was a walk-on, surrounded by peers who shouted to chase their dreams, but in fact were just getting by.

One day of work, one day of earning money, one day of drunkenness in Internet cafes, one day of living is one day.

Its beautiful name is:

Living in the moment?

In this story, Jiamei's mother married an old man who only slept on a two-square-meter bed in order to immigrate, turning her into a Hong Kong drifter with nothing.

Perhaps compared to another well-received work last year, starring Ren Dahua and Asa, it is considered lucky that it was not violated, right?

"Don't underestimate the director, he is a full member of the Film Critics Association, with a standard venomous tongue!"

Liu Tianwang explained: "A very ambitious young man, there are many movies adapted from bloody cases, and there are also many works about urban legends that attract people's attention."

"But it's the first time I've seen this type of movie that combines the Hong Kong-style style with literary films. Don't you think it's very special?"

Ding Cheng agrees with this feeling very much. When it comes to Hong Kong Island movies, there is never a shortage of bloody and violent strange cases that sell meat.From Gui Zhihong, Cheng Gang, and Sun Zhong in the 70s to Wang Jing and Deng Yancheng in the 90s...

The hidden corpse at the bottom of the stove has always been a frequent visitor to the midnight show, but almost no director would have thought that there are other ways to shoot this subject.

Weng Ziwen is very special. He didn't even plan to shoot a suspenseful thriller well. At the beginning, the murderer was arrested and confessed, and the audience knew the result when they came up.On the contrary, what awaits the girl at the end of her destiny are the thick hands strangling her throat and the cold knife light.

The suspense stalk was broken just like that!

But the movie still has a long time, how to pass it?

Turn the sloppy old CID with white hair into a marionette in his hands, and use this character to continue investigating the case and say what he wants to express.

very novel,
Also very bold!

"Chun Xia is the most spiritual newcomer I've seen in recent years!"

"And fat boy!"

Liu Tianwang took out a photo of the two of them, showed it to Ding Cheng and said, "Look at her big eyes, is she really Wang Jiamei?"

Ding Cheng looked at the fixed makeup photo, with a pair of big eyes full of loneliness on his slightly pale face.

It should have belonged to the youthful romance of a 16-year-old young girl,

Only emptiness and confusion remain.

A pair without lines,
Eyes that can speak for themselves.

As for the murderer, Ding Zicong, a local youth, a dead fat house in the mouth of outsiders, with a withdrawn and unruly personality, a strong desire suppressed in his heart, and an accident in his young family due to a car accident...

A seemingly indifferent face,

Full of details that are suppressed and cannot be vented!

I have to say that just looking at the photos, both faces have stories to tell, which makes one feel the urge to understand their hearts.

I suddenly understood Liu Kaihua's position. From the perspective of an investment boss, it is indeed different from being an actor myself.

Through years of experience, discover good scripts, find good new directors, and see potential new actors.

If you are an actor, the sense of accomplishment may be to complete a certain role, so as to be recognized and liked by the audience.

But as the owner of a film company, the sense of accomplishment becomes the person who finds the most suitable role in the vast crowd.

Need more experience,

richer life experiences,

A more complex evaluation system...

Even look at the face?

The change of roles made Ding Cheng feel a door slowly opening in front of him...

Like a Pandora's box,

You never know what's hidden inside?
