I Know Everything

Butao knew Fengxiang Film and Television's determination this time.

The budget of the Infernal Affairs trilogy has reached a staggering 500 million.

This has created a super record in the film history of Huaguo.

Not to mention ordinary police and gangster movies, but some movies that claim to have hired Hollywood to produce special effects, and the investment cost is not so much.

Of course, 500 million is for three films, not one.

But such a movie that focuses on the plot is almost 170 million each, and the cost is still very high.

The main expenditure must be on the actors' remuneration.

Except for the first film which only has 3 actor-level actors, the other two films feature 5 actor-stars.

Even if there are protagonists and supporting roles among them, it is certainly impossible to give others only a few million in salary.

Generally speaking, the actors of Han Chen and Police Superintendent Huang will appear in the three films of the two film kings. Although many of them are played in the form of memories, as long as they act, they have to be paid.

After the three plays, at least the two of them will get 30 million.

For the two most important movie kings, Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming, in the first movie, they starred in the teenagers, about 5 million is enough, but the second movie must be given at least 20 million, and the third movie must be given another 10 million.

In addition, there are Ni Yongxiao and Mary from the first movie, Yang Xiner and Mary from the second movie and the third movie, and Yang Jinrong from the third movie... Which one of these is 10 million less?

When the salaries of actors in a movie can reach an astonishing 70 to 80 million, or even hundreds of millions, the pressure on a director can be imagined.

Generally speaking, the more actors are paid, the less money will be used to produce movies and TV shows, which will greatly affect the quality of movies and TV shows, and thus become bad movies.

But if you don't have a big star to join, the audience won't even be interested in going to the cinema.

So this is a dilemma.

Now Fengxiang Film and Television did not make Bu Tao feel embarrassed about this.

The total budget of 500 million is enough for him to make any combination and selection without exceeding the cost of the movie.

Moreover, the two teachers Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang didn't have any restrictions on the box office of the movie, they just told him to make the script well and make it wonderful.

Butao was very grateful to meet such a boss.

So he gnawed at the script at home for two consecutive months before finally starting to form a crew and invite actors to audition.

For fear that he would not be able to hold back the scene, Shen Huan even came over in person.

How much support is this?

Butao secretly vowed that he must make this film well, not for anything else, but for their trust in him, he must be serious and serious, even if he offends those actor-level actors, he will not hesitate.

Director, Teacher Lu, the first teacher Fei Qingyang is here! There was a knock on the door, and an assistant just reported.

Okay, come right away.

Butao stood up, smiled at Shen Huan and said, Obviously I went to audition for others, why do I feel like I'm in the examination room?

That's because you attach great importance to this movie, and you don't want it to be poorly done. Shen Huan also stood up and walked outside, Fei Qingyang is a very good actor, let's see his performance first!

good!

Bu Tao took a deep breath, and went to the next room with Shen Huan.

This room covers an area of ​​about 20 square meters. Apart from a few chairs, there is also a camera working.

This is for tidbits.

If the actor is not selected, then these scenes about him will be deleted.

Standing in the room was the tall and handsome actor Fei Qingyang, he is also Shen Huan's friend, before Shen Huan even wrote him a song Thank you for your love, now it is ranked No. One too!

Seeing the two people coming in, Fei Qingyang showed a smile, Hi, Director Bu, hello, Teacher Lu!

Mr. Fei, you are polite.

After shaking hands with him, Butao sat down, Your assistant only gave me half an hour, so shall we start?

Don't worry about them, these people put on airs all day long. Fei Qingyang waved his hand, If you can't do it for half an hour, it's an hour, if you can't do it for an hour, it's two hours. Anyway, I'm going to spend it here today, let the two until you are satisfied!

His slightly rascally words made Shen Huan couldn't help but smile, Brother Yang, don't speak harshly, if you go out in ten minutes, I'll see what you will do!

Cut, is it possible? Fei Qingyang cast a sidelong glance at Shen Huan.

Immediately, the little assistant next to him handed him a script line.

When he watched it, Butao explained: Mr. Fei, please act out this scene. If you have anything you don't understand, you can ask us.

good!

Fei Qingyang sat down and began to read seriously.

On the lines of the script given to him by his assistant, there is also a description of the character and characteristics of Senior Inspector Liu Jianming, as well as his true identity.

Although there are less than 100 characters in all, Fei Qingyang reads it very carefully.

As he watched, he closed his eyes.

Then he opened his eyes again and continued to look.

After ten minutes, he stood up.

Fei Qingyang first walked around the room twice, and then stepped forward in a serious manner. In this way, his whole aura was revealed.

When he stood at attention, Fei Qingyang began to perform.

Before he could speak, a trace of gloom, longing and fear appeared in his eyes.

Give me a chance! Fei Qingyang looked at the air, his voice trembling slightly: I want to be a good person.

When speaking, Fei Qingyang clenched his hand tightly, as if he wanted to seize such a tiny opportunity.

If you look more carefully, you can still find that Fei Qingyang's eyes are slightly red, which is obviously a sign of agitation.

It took a full minute for him to completely relax from his tense state.

good!

But Tao couldn't help but clapped his hands and said, Mr. Fei, your performance is very good!

Fei Qingyang smiled, What do you think, Teacher Lu?

Shen Huan kept thinking about the performances of Hua Tsai and Fei Qingyang in his heart, and found that he couldn't tell who was better.

However, Hua Tsai's acting skills have never been the best. This also shows that Fei Qingyang is indeed the weakest among the six best actor.

But he and Hua Tsai also have one thing in common, that is, both of them are handsome, and they are positive characters at first glance, the upright one, much better than the villain face like Ma Xing.

It's not that Ma Xing never played bad guys when he was young. It stands to reason that he can still handle the role of Han Chen.

The reason why Ma Xing was not invited this time was because of his face. Now the audience all over the country wanted to laugh when they saw it, so there was no way to let him play Han Chen.

On the contrary, a person with a fierce face like Yan Yu is very suitable to play Han Chen.

So even though Yan Yu was still filming Prisoner 2, Shen Huan borrowed him for a day.

Thoughts come back.

Shen Huan also gave Fei Qingyang a thumbs-up, I also think Brother Yang, your performance is very good, you really like the character!

For the role of Liu Jianming, it would be great if he could find a better actor, but if he couldn't find one, then Fei Qingyang would be more than enough.

At least Fei Qingyang's performance was quite satisfactory, definitely not bad.

This is equivalent to guaranteeing Liu Jianming's bottom line.

Hearing Shen Huan's praise, Fei Qingyang was also very happy.

Because Shen Huan's approval usually represented Teacher Chu Liuxiang's approval.

Although Fei Qingyang hadn't read the complete script, maybe Teacher Chu Liuxiang chose the actors with such a big fanfare, could it be bad?

It must be a big movie!

In addition to being happy, he chatted with Shen Huan for a few more words, and then withdrew.

There are still many film stars waiting outside to audition, so he can't occupy too much time.

Fei Qingyang is well-known in the industry for being a good person, of course he understands these details!
