Chapter 299 Arrogance


Chapter 299 Arrogance

In the hotel room, Wang Jing, who had just finished work, was holding her mobile phone and remained silent.

"Who is this young boy named Zhang Yuan?"

The reason why he is so curious is the "ticket" Zhang Yuan has exchanged for favors these days. .

“Xingzai rarely calls to recommend people.”

"And I'm not from his company."

"I just say that the acting is good."

Wang Ji and Zhou Xingchi are very familiar with each other. They have worked together in movies. There is a stack.

He knew very well that Zhou Xingchi did not like to help others, so his behavior this time was very abnormal.

"Mr. Yang also called."

"Tell me to take him."

The Mr. Yang mentioned here is Yang Dengkui, the old man.

Wang Jing just finished filming "The Best in the World", which he invested in and is considered the financial backer.

If the financial owner speaks, you must listen.

"Ciwen also had a call from Zhang Jizhong." Wang Jian narrowed his small swollen eyes.

"He's a nice young man, please give me some advice."

"Huh..." Wang Jian thought about it.

"Mainland, Xiangjiang, Treasure Island..."

"These three places are the entire area of ​​the Chinese film and television industry."

"But these three places One person in each place recommended the young actor to me.”

"And these three are all well-known figures in three places."

"Well..."

Wang Ji rubbed his eyes, feeling deeply troubled.

He doesn’t know much about mainland actors. What he does know is that he usually only recognizes some big names, except for people from the companies he works with.

He is really unfamiliar with Zhang Yuan.

I called the assistant and asked for photos to get a general idea of ​​the situation.

“I have filmed many TV series.”

“I have also played a leading role.” Wang Jian took the photo and looked at it carefully.

"He's quite handsome... That's even more troublesome."

In the end, this "Little Fish and Flowers" is actually just to praise Zhang Weijian and Nicholas Tse. Two Hong Kong male stars.

Not to mention Nicholas Tse, he is basically regarded as his own son by the Emperor.

Countless resources were spent on him, and of course, the Emperor also received generous rewards.

When he was 16 years old, he was "sold" to Emperor by his father Xie Xian... At that time, it was still called Feitu Records. On the day of the signing, Yang Shoucheng was present in person, and Jackie Chan was his supporter.

Later, top-notch Hong Kong singers such as Andy Lau and Karen Mok took her to concerts.

That’s really all the big stars in Hong Kong serving him.

Wang Jian is no exception and must be praised.

Besides, who is Wang Jian?

That’s an old Xiangjiang person from Zhengmi Ziqi!

His father Wang Tianlin is a famous director... the fat man Dumbledore who walks the dog in "Underworld".

The more established Xiangjiang people are, the more they "protect their own people" and prefer to use "one's own people".

The so-called own people are, of course, people from Xiangjiang.

As for the other protagonist Zhang Weijian.

In the early years, when Wang Jian cooperated with Xingye, he realized that Xingye had "golden scales that are just like things in the pond. They turn into dragons when encountering storms."

He had already seen that Zhou Xingchi would not be willing to be suppressed by others and become a small actor who made money for others.

So Wang Jian started looking for Zhou Xingchi's replacement early.

Of course, everyone knows the result: no one in this world can be Zhou Xingchi’s replacement!

In the process of looking for a "substitute", Zhang Weijian was one of his targets and appeared in many works, such as the "Super School Bully".

This man was once called "Stephen Chow's successor" by the media.

Zhang Weijian can act, sing, dance, and looks good, but the problem is that he can't be top-notch in any of them.

In addition to his personality, it would be polite to say that this person is a "house slave with three surnames".

Seeing small profits and forgetting one's life, doing big things but cherishing one's life, this is basically what I mean.

Started from TVB, went to Baodao, and worked with Zheng Zeshi. The reason for breaking up with these three companies is all one word, money!

Then during the 1997 Hong Kong financial crisis, it was Soros who led the Quantum Fund to sweep across Asia, and finally failed after kicking the red giant's steel plate in Hong Kong.

In those years, a large number of speculators went bankrupt, including many celebrities in Xiangjiang. The more famous ones include Zhang Weijian, Xu Jingjiang, Zhong Zhentao... these all speculated in real estate.

Then after this man ran out of money, he returned to his old club TVB like a lost dog.

But the most amazing thing about this guy is that no matter how many times he sinks, he can always get up.

After returning to TVB, "Journey to the West" directly broke the TV station's ratings record in the past 40 years!

Then... this guy had a falling out with TVB again because of money.

TVB is famous for being stingy and underpaying its employees, but after all, it doesn’t seem appropriate to support you twice and fall out every time because of money.

Look at Hong Jinbao, Jiahe helped him and praised him back then.

This person's net worth skyrocketed after that, and he could earn millions in salary as a director while acting outside. However, as long as Golden Harvest needed it, Hong Jinbao would receive a salary of tens to hundreds of thousands, up to one-tenth of the market price.

The entertainment industry in Xiangjiang is full of big brothers, but these big brothers would have to bow their heads and call him big brother when they see him.

Because everyone knows that Hong Jinbao is very "observant of the rules". If you help him, he will remember it forever.

This is how Big Brother comes about.

At this moment, Zhang Weijian, who betrayed TVB for the second time, is basically alone.

However, the inward cohesion of the Xiangjiang entertainment circle is still very strong.

At this moment, your brother Hua appears.

Not only did he help him pay off his debts, he also signed him to his record company, and even invested in a TV series called "Monkey King, Monkey King" for him to star.

A set of combos made the grandson recover again.

Wang Jie also missed his old relationship and gave him a hand to star in "Xiaobao and Kangxi". He also used his face to help him ease the relationship with TVB and relieve the other party of him. "Block Order".

If a person can become famous, he will definitely become famous.

If a person can become famous, fall, become famous, and fall, and can always make a comeback every time he falls into a big hole that others cannot climb up from, then it is not a question of whether this person is floating or not. , but I feel that I am the chosen one!

Now, the "Chosen One" and the "Emperor's Young Master" are the two protagonists of this "Little Yu'er and Hua Wuque".

Wang Jian held Zhang Yuan’s photo and pondered it over and over again.

Three big guys recommended it, but the male lead has already been decided.

Withdraw Nicholas Tse?

The Emperor will probably tear me apart.

Withdraw Zhang Weijian?

That's my hardcore, the palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh.

So after much thought, he realized that it was impossible for the protagonist to be the protagonist.

But if they are not given roles, these three people will not be able to live up to their reputation.

Wang Ji is a veteran in the entertainment industry, just like those three.

And these veterans all have similar ideas.

“He has found so many people to recommend him, so he probably wants to use my ‘ladder’ to climb into Hong Kong!”

If Zhang Yuan were present, he would have laughed out loud. .

What's going on in Hong Kong? You guys don't have any clues.

“If this is the purpose, then it will be easy to handle.”

“Give me a supporting role and let’s see how good it is first.”

“Then I’ll give you a little more remuneration. , the three of them have gained face.”

Thinking of this, Wang Jian made up his mind and laughed.

Then he took out his mobile phone, dialed the number himself, and called Zhang Yuan.

Communicating in person is considered sincerity and gives face to those three people.

In the courtyard, Zhang Yuanzheng was sitting alone on the bed, feeling unhappy.

“Cheng Hao went to the south to shoot commercials.”

“Chang Chang went back to his uncle’s house and couldn’t get out.”

"Senior sister went to promote with the crew..."

Zhang Yuandun felt like "drawing a sword and looking around at a loss".

"I have a golden hoop for free, but those goblins are not here!"

"I want...what is the use of this iron rod..."

Zhang Yuan was singing when his cell phone rang. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, he cautiously picked up the call.

“Hello?”

“Hi, hello, I’m Wang Jian.”

Hear the slightly Hong Kong-flavored Mandarin coming from the other side , Zhang Yuan almost jumped up with excitement.

Why did you come to pinch me!

I've had such a hard time waiting for you!

Without you, how can I sing in this great drama!

Zhang Yuan was so excited at this time that he forgot about the "goblins".

He was getting a little impatient waiting, and even doubted whether the three insurances he had placed were of any use.

Now it seems that it is done.

"Hello, Director Wang, I admire you very much." He said in a very excited tone.

Wang Jian on the other side of the phone chuckled.

Look, it’s urgent.

Look at his attitude, I think he wants to join the Hong Kong circle!

I still guessed it correctly.

"Several friends recommended you to me."

"I don't know much about you, so I looked for some information and found that you are very good." Wang Jian praised you in a business-like manner.

"Look, our crew will start filming in Hengdian soon."

"I think you are quite suitable for the role of Yan Nantian in the film."

"Come over as soon as possible Try on the makeup and see if it looks good.”

"No problem, I'll book a flight right away!" Zhang Yuan replied decisively.

Putting down the phone, Wang Jian was even happier.

“You don’t even ask about the salary, but you are still so excited. It seems that you are not a smart person.”

On the other hand, Zhang Yuan calmed down after putting down his mobile phone.

"Yan Nantian..."

"Okay, even though it's a supporting role, it should be considered a pretty good role in this film."

"Besides, I didn't go for acting anyway."

>Now Wang Jian and Zhang Yuan are like stock investors and institutions.

You are greedy for his interest, but little do you know that what they are greedy for is your principal!

The next day, he got on a plane and rushed to Hengdian Film and Television City.

The last time I came here was when I was filming "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

I have been staying here for several months.

In "The Two Prides", the character Yan Nantian is regarded as a first-class master. Gu Long gave him the title of "the best swordsman in the world".

We are sworn brothers with Xiao Yu'er and Hua Wuque's father, Jiang Feng, who is known as "the most beautiful man in the world".

The settings of these two are actually a bit like Guo Jing and Yang Kang, one has high martial arts and the other is handsome.

In fact, Yan Nantian was not bad looking when he was young, but he was outshone by Jiang Feng's brilliance.

After all, she was a woman who was confused when she saw Jiang Feng, just like Yang Guo.

In the previous versions of Lin Zhiying and Su Youpeng's "The Greatest Love", it was Lin Ruiyang who played Yan Nantian.

He is one of those unscrupulous couples who engage in pyramid schemes.

The description of this person in the book is that he is eight feet tall, with disheveled hair, long bones, broad shoulders, and hands above his knees.

Zhang Yuan estimated that it should look like Xu Chu's body connected to Liu Bei's arm...

But it doesn't matter.

After all, Wang Jian’s version of the plot, the changes... Gu Long will probably be able to scratch the surface of the coffin after reading it.

Anyway, in this TV series, Yan Nantian’s setting is also very handsome.

As for the reason... the audience likes to see handsome people.

Wang Jian is such a realistic person.

Arrive at the designated hotel room.

"Hmph, it turns out that only a bearded man would be so grandiose as to arrange the audition in the Grand Theater."

"Hello, Director Wang."

"Hello."

When I came to the house, I met the director, assistant director, screenwriter, executive, martial arts and other crew members.

“Is he the one recommended?” asked a martial arts director and assistant director named Xie.

It seems that in many production crews, Wu Zhi will also serve as an assistant director or even a group director.

This was the case for Yuen Bing of the bearded crew, and the same was true for Hong Jinbao before he was "angry" in "Kung Fu".

Many Xiangjiang martial arts fingers are very capable.

"Well, that's him." Wang Jian smiled and curled his lips: "He's more handsome than in the photo."

"Will he steal the show?" the assistant director asked.

In fact, the crew knew that of the two male leads in the film, Zhang Weijian was responsible for the funny and flamboyant roles, while Nicholas Tse was responsible for the handsomeness.

Why don’t Mr. Xie shake off his burden?

According to General Fan: I don’t have the ability to know how to attack!

Although this guy has been debuting for eight years this year, his acting skills...how should I put it, most of the roles he plays are the kind of awkward young people.

She appears with a bit of character.

His acting skills improved greatly in the later period, but it is still not difficult to see that his acting talent is not top-notch.

What's more, at this time, his main focus is still on music. After all, Emperor has just transformed at this time, and has been walking on two legs: music, film and television.

In fact, Nicholas Tse's improvement in acting skills has a lot to do with "Little Fish and Flowers", because this is his first TV series. After that, he began to transition to film and television dramas. Lord,

In two years, I took on three TV series and movies.

They are: "Wing Chun", "Big Shot", "Huanhua Swords", "Dragon Tiger Gate", "The True Colors of a Man", and "Witness".

So there is no problem at all in saying that he is the first brother of the Emperor.

Even back then, there was a saying that the first sister who is running water is the first brother who is iron-clad.

This is where the assistant director's worry comes from. Mr. Xie is here just to show off.

Now here comes another handsome guy, isn’t that cool?

"It's okay, he doesn't have many roles, so don't be afraid." Wang Jian returned.

“What role have you prepared for him?”

“Yan Nantian.”

“Ah, Yan Nantian!” The assistant director’s eyes widened in surprise: “This The character only has two or three weeks of scenes, and you’re offering him a salary of 800,000?”

The total investment in this film is as high as 40 million!

The remuneration of Zhang Weijian and Nicholas Tse alone is as high as 10 million.

Among them, Nicholas Tse received nearly 170,000 yuan per episode.

You know, before filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Huang Xiaoming's single episode salary was less than 50,000.

And here is what surprised the assistant director.

"Yan Nantian only played in seven or eight episodes in total, right?"

"He will earn more than 100,000 yuan per episode!"

Wang Jian waved his hand, indicating that he knew it.

It doesn’t matter whether Zhang Yuan is worth the price.

The face of those three people is worth the price!

"Director Wang, what kind of audition do you need?" Zhang Yuan pretended that his extraordinary hearing did not hear anything, and asked with a faint smile.

“Take off your clothes.”

“Okay.” Zhang Yuan took off his thin coat.

“Take it off again.”

“No problem.”

The undershirt was also taken off.

“Continue to take off your clothes.”

Zhang Yuan:…

“Director Wang, how far do you want to take off your clothes?”

“Just finish taking off your clothes. ”

Zhang Yuan thought.

“I’m not here to make a third-level film, am I!”
