Superstars start as villains

Chapter 154 The lively National Day file.

"No, it will probably be October."

Most of the crew of "New Love" are from Guangdong Province, mainland actors like Chen Kun are not accessible to newcomers like Tong Lia, so Tong Lia was quite happy when he received a call from "Lao Zhou". .

"By the way, there is a film to be filmed in the spring of next year. There is a character that suits you. Do you have a schedule?" Anyway, there are twelve characters in this film, and there is always one that suits her. This shouldn't be considered a lie, right? ?Zhou Xing comforted himself.

"Pfft, I'm a young actor. I don't have a schedule. I should be on vacation in the beginning of spring. I have time." Tong Liya smiled, but she also doubted herself. Movies are no better than TV dramas. Can she really do it?
Zhou Xing immediately encouraged: "Although the movie is more demanding than the TV series, it's just a low-budget comedy movie. Director Er Dongsheng is famously strict. If you can meet his requirements, you must be fine."

"Really?" Tong Lia's eyes lit up: "Thank you so much, I will treat you to dinner when I get paid."

"Okay, it's a deal."

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xing felt inexplicably happy. It's strange to say that he has seen many beauties in the entertainment industry for so many years, but he has never experienced this kind of feeling. Could it be that this is the legendary love?
"The budget has already been made. If the actress's salary is not included, about 700 million should be about the same." Gao Qunshu is very busy these days. The eyes are almost like a panda.

Zhou Xing nodded: "Sister Hua has already agreed to help coordinate the schedule. As for the actresses, it's enough for one person to make a guest appearance for one hundred thousand."

"That's great." Gao Qunshu was also beaming with joy. This was his first project at Zhixing Film and Television.

"However, in this case, we have to coordinate the schedule with the crew. They are guest stars, so naturally we have to follow their schedule. Don't make it difficult for Sister Hua." Zhou Xing reminded.

"Okay, that's it for this project, and the role of Long Xiaoxia is reserved for a while, and I have a friend who will come to play a guest role."

"Friend?" Anli looked at Zhou Xing suspiciously.

The script of "Love Call Transfer" has already passed the review, and Zhang Jianya is an old-timer in the industry. The crew was set up very quickly, the funds were in place, and the basic framework was set up.

Since September, the mainland film industry has been caught in a chaotic melee. On September 9, "Night Banquet" will be the first to be released. The box office appeal of Xiaogangpao + Uncle Ge + Zhang Ziyi is not weak.

He won 1200 million at the box office on the first day, and Xiaogangpao is also full of ambitions. Who said he can only make comedies?Isn't this "Night Banquet" an adaptation of Shakespeare's classic tragedy "Hamlet"?
However, less than a week after the premiere, there were a lot of bad reviews on the Internet. Obviously, the audience did not buy the classic remake of Hot Cannon.

Xiaogangpao dismissed this: [Night Banquet] The box office in the first week was close to 6000 million.

However, from the second week onwards, the box office of [Night Banquet] dropped sharply, and Xiaogangpao couldn't sit still, and began to say that the taste of [Night Banquet] was too high for the audience to understand. A decline in the box office.

At this time, Xiaogangpao finally understood Brother Chen Kai a little bit. He really couldn't find an excuse. He couldn't admit that he messed up his game, right?Then how can the movie be promoted?

The house leak coincided with the continuous night rain. With the release of Chenglong's "Baby Project", the decline of "Night Banquet" was even worse. In the end, the box office stopped at 1.3 million, which was far from the target of 1.5 million.

Moreover, the evaluation of this drama is very low in all aspects, and the Douban score was only 5.3 at one time.

The audience also complained: Can Xiao Gangpao not be able to film without Uncle Ge?When Uncle Ge took off his helmet to reveal his true face, the theater laughed together.

Even Uncle Ge's fans said: "Small steel cannons don't harm our Uncle Ge anymore, he is not suitable for acting in costume dramas."

Xiao Gangpao was so angry that he said in an interview with the media: "The Banquet" has already achieved its box office target, and the overseas box office is enough to pay off.

The translation is: It doesn't matter whether the audience likes it or not, anyway, I help Huayi make money.

In addition, the final box office of "Baby Project" reached 9700 million, and the combination of Jackie Chan + Goo Jai did not achieve very good results. Many viewers also said: Jackie Chan is really old and can't move anymore.

The performance of [Dragon Tiger Gate] is also high and low, with a box office of 4600 million in two weeks, but only 5300 million in the end. The audience is also extremely dissatisfied with Zhen Bullet's performance, especially when he boasted that this drama is hard to come by in ten years. A kung fu movie that transcends.

Some film critics said: How thick-skinned and how productive the land is.

Fans of kung fu movies even said: This movie can be compared with "Huo Yuanjia"?A kung fu movie that is difficult to surpass in ten years?Is this counted from this year?

"I said a long time ago that there will be no good results if we withdraw the file. If we had released it at that time, we wouldn't be like this, besieged on all sides." Zhen Bullet said angrily.

Ye Weixin's face turned green, and he couldn't bear it any longer: "Shut up, if you hadn't caused an accident, why would we have decided to withdraw?"

Huang Baiming's face was even more ugly. The situation was good, but now he has to lose money. As an investor, he is the most distressed.

"That's enough, bullet, you go out first." Huang Baiming suppressed his anger and said.

Zhen Bullet leaves the arena angrily, slamming the door and leaving.

"Lao Ye, let's end this matter first. Do you have any plans for filming in the near future?" Huang Baiming knew very well that the failure of "Dragon Tiger Gate" did not lie with Ye Weixin. The film itself was a bold attempt. It's a pity that a good card was smashed by Zhen's bullets. He originally planned to shoot a sequel, but now it seems that there is no need for it.

"Yes, yes, but I will never cooperate with Zhen Bullet again." Ye Weixin said firmly.

Huang Baiming was a little embarrassed: "But, if you don't use him, who else can you use?"

"Zhou Xing." Ye Weixin has always had a good impression of Zhou Xing, and the most important point is that Zhen Dan is too domineering. As a martial arts instructor, he even interferes with the proportion of literature and drama in the play. The reason is also very simple. His Literary drama is really impossible to watch.

Regarding this, Zhen Zibao said confidently: Isn't Kung Fu movies just watching martial arts scenes?I play beautifully, isn't it all right?Why do we need so much literature and drama?
Come on, kung fu movies are also a type of movie. If you really want to watch martial arts purely, wouldn't it be more exciting to watch boxing and Sanda?Movies are always about telling a good story, and everything else has to make way for that.

"That's fine, that's it." Huang Baiming pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. He was naturally interested in Zhou Xing's box office appeal. Whether it was Xiangjiang or the mainland, Zhen Bullet's box office appeal was far from being comparable to Zhou Xing. , although Zhou Xing's film salary is much higher than Zhen Bullet's, but as long as the box office can rise, the money should still be spent.

Not long after, Zhou Xing received a call from Ye Weixin.

"Director Ye, if you're free, it shouldn't be as simple as finding me for tea, right?" Zhou Xing said with a smile. He and Ye Weixin haven't seen each other a few times since [Slaying the Wolf]. It's not just to chat with him out of boredom.

Ye Weixin smiled and said, "Of course, I have a script on hand recently. It's a kung fu police movie. I want to chat with you."

"It can't be used as a sandbag again?" Zhou Xing teased.

"I can't afford such an expensive sandbag, don't worry, number one male." Ye Weixin laughed.

"Alright, I'm going to Xiangjiang to shoot a movie in a few days, let's meet and talk slowly?" Zhou Xing suddenly thought: "Director Ye, for kung fu movies, have you found your martial arts instructor?"

"Not yet, I'm also having a headache because of this. You know that Zhen Bullet has always been the martial arts director." Although Ye Weixin was very dissatisfied with Zhen Bullet's way of handling things, he had to admit that his action design was still very good. special.

"Why don't I recommend one for you?" Zhou Xing was delighted when he heard it. The man he recommended was naturally Xiong Xinxin.

Ye Weixin actually guessed it, and after thinking about it, he agreed. Needless to say, Xiong Xinxin's professional level, the most important thing is that he is very obedient. To be honest, he has been a bit of a shadow of a snake after working with Zhen Bullet for the past few years. .

"Okay, that's it. When you come to Xiangjiang, I will treat you to morning tea. I haven't made an appointment before."

"Okay, let's meet again when we arrive in Xiangjiang."

After the filming of "New Love" was completed in late October, Er Dongsheng directly took the crew back to Xiangjiang. Basically, the connection was seamless and did not require much preparation.

Zhou Xing also rushed to Xiangjiang to take makeup photos. 【Disciple】Brother Zhongkun is a middle-aged man in his forties. Zhou Xing's makeup needs to be a little older to match the characteristics of the character. For this reason, his hair was specially dyed "" Granny Gray".

After the makeup photo was taken, Zhou Xing and Ye Weixin made an appointment to meet at a breakfast shop.

"Director Ye, is this the authentic morning tea you mentioned?" Zhou Xing arrived at the place and found that the business here was even better than expected.

Ye Weixin nodded triumphantly: "It's rare that you still remember, that's right, the rice rolls and crystal shrimp dumplings here are absolutely amazing, you won't want to leave after eating them."

Zhou Xing secretly smiled, he didn't expect this person to be a foodie.

Soon, the morning tea was served, and the two of them had a hearty meal, and Ye Weixin said seriously: "The script hasn't come out yet, the main content is."

Zhou Xing nodded. The plot is a typical Xiangjiang gangster movie, but it is said that some exciting fighting scenes will be added.

"By the way, I have already invited Kwan Zhaolong to act in the anti-number one of this drama." Seeing that Zhou Xing did not agree, Ye Weixin directly released his trump card.

Zhou Xing was moved as soon as he heard it, and Kwan Zhaolong is also an acquaintance with him. With him as the villain, the fighting scenes in this movie will definitely be very exciting.

"Okay then, let's settle it first."

Ye Weixin also heaved a sigh of relief, with Zhou Xing joining, maybe this drama can make him squeeze into the billionaire directors club?
