Superstars start as villains

Chapter 86 Will You Be Scolded Miserably?

In terms of Tangren Film and Television, at first Cai Yinong actually wanted to use this show to promote newcomers. As for who the newcomers are, it doesn't matter, what matters is his own people.

However, the investment in the project [Legend of Sword and Fairy] did not go smoothly. How could it be possible for such a large investment without a big-name star to sit on the team, and the investor is not taken advantage of?

Just in time for [Infernal Affairs 3] and [Conquest] to catch fire, Cai Yinong set her sights on Zhou Xing. For this reason, she also made an appointment with Anli through her relationship as a reporter in Xiangjiang, and they eventually became friends.

So Zhou Xing joined in later, and the investors finally let go. With the early start-up funds, the crew of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was finally set up.

The male number one has Zhou Xing in charge, and the heroine Cai Yinong originally wanted his subordinate Ai Jiang Sun Li to take the role. However, the other party just married Huang Sanshi and even planned to take a break from acting. An actress who fits the role of Zhao Linger.

Therefore, Cai Yinong put his eyes on Liu Yifei, who has recently gained fame. Although Liu Yifei has only debuted for more than a year, his popularity is not low at all. His debut work "Golden Fan Family" was broadcast on CCTV 7.68. , achieved an average rating of [-]%, and won the CCTV ratings champion for two consecutive years.

In the same year, she played Wang Yuyan in the Zhang Big Beard version of "Tianlong Babu", and the fairy sister became synonymous with her for a while.

However, when Cai Yinong first approached Liu Tianxian, she didn't want to take this drama, because she felt that Zhao Linger's role overlapped with Wang Yuyan's, not to mention that after Liu Tianxian acted in two TV dramas that became popular, her vision was inevitably a little high Yes, I want to make a movie.

Cai Yinong's saliva was dry, but Liu Tianxian refused to agree. Cai Yinong was so angry that he almost swears. In the end, Liu Tianxian accepted the play under his mother's persuasion.

The male and female protagonists have been decided, and the other actors will be easier to handle. Although Sun Li has the consideration of going home to help her husband and raise her children, she has not completely quit after all, so Lin Qing'er, Zhao Linger's mother, fell into the role. her head.

As for Cai Yinong, who was originally very optimistic about the young man who wanted to be promoted as the leading actor——Hu Ge, he could only be wronged to play the second male lead, Tang Yu.

Compared with TV dramas, the film industry is even more turbulent. Since "Hero" hit the top of the box office, Guoshi has become the most profitable director of commercial films, which has attracted the attention of many well-known mainland directors. But the box office is only 5300 million. In the minds of the media and the audience, there is still a certain gap between him and the national teacher.

And Xiaogangpao also understands one thing. Small-budget comedies are easy to achieve results, but the upper limit is too low (in fact, the main reason is that piracy is related to the audience's viewing habits). He wants to make a blockbuster!

Mr. Wang is quite supportive of Xiaogangpao's idea of ​​making a blockbuster movie. Of course, it's just a comparison. After all, a blockbuster movie means high cost and high risk. Huayi's foundation is not strong enough to make a fuss.

So after the two parties discussed it, they came up with a compromise method, making a semi-comedy movie with a medium cost, and then there was this "A World Without Thieves"

For the male number one candidate, Xiao Wang always prefers Zhou Xing, but Xiao Gangpao is firmly opposed to it. Last year in [Infernal Affairs 3], the media made a lot of disgusting comments about him. Naturally, Xiaogangpao doesn't like Zhou Xing very much.

"But he has box office appeal in Hong Kong and the mainland." Mr. Wang still insisted.

Xiaogangpao was secretly a little upset: "He is not the only one who has box office appeal in the two places, I think Hua Tsai is not bad."

In the end, Mr. Wang still gave in. There was no other way. Huayi in this period was relying on the signboard of the small steel cannon. It was not worth offending him for such a trivial matter.

Therefore, Andy received an invitation from Huayi. In the past few years, the box office in the mainland market has soared sharply. Andy had long wanted to come to the mainland to film.

On the other side, after a year of silence, Guoshi finally made a move. His new film script has passed the review. quick.

As for the other leading actor, Zhou Xing was found. However, after Zhou Xing got the script, he was still hesitant.

Judging from the script alone, this is undoubtedly a bad movie, the plot has no ups and downs at all, and it belongs to the type that one can guess the ending just by looking at the beginning.

When Zhou Xing turned to the last page of the script and found that there was a national teacher in the list of screenwriters, he realized it.

To be reasonable, if the director of this script is changed, Zhou Xing will not accept it even if he is beaten to death, but that is the national teacher. In the Chinese film circle, which actor can refuse his call?

"Maybe, the national teacher will not shoot according to this script?" Zhou Xing can only "convince" himself in this way: the strength of the national teacher is not his narrative technique, but the use of color and the use of big scenes. scheduling.

Anli was very happy that Zhou Xing was able to put the "big picture first" in his reply to the crew, and then it was time to talk about the contract.

Soon, there was a big news in the entertainment industry, the National Teacher was going to make a new movie!For a while, the headlines of all the entertainment media were like this. This was the influence of the National Teacher.

That’s not enough, and news soon broke out that the investment cost of [Housing Daggers] reached 3.1 million. You know, the investment of [Hero] 2.4 million the year before last was already shocking. This time [Housing Daggers] ]’s investment is actually higher than that of [Hero].

Xiaogangpao seemed to be fine at home watching TV, but when he saw the news, he almost smashed the TV. He finally applied for 1200 million investment with Huayi, and he was already full of joy. Coming so suddenly, it was a blow to the head.

"It's great to be rich?" Xiaogangpao cursed fiercely, feeling pantothenic in his heart.

It's really great to be rich. After almost a week, the enthusiasm for "House of Flying Daggers" has not dissipated. The media will report any gossip. It seems that there is nothing else going on in the entertainment industry in the mainland.

Soon, the news that Zhou Xing was confirmed to participate in [Ambush from Ten Daggers] was dug up by the media, and the film salary of tens of millions was also exposed. Not to mention, the influence of Guoshi's movies is indeed extraordinary, did the news break out? After a while, Zhou Xing's worth also increased a lot, and some well-known brands began to talk to Anli for endorsement.

For a moment, the entire entertainment circle seemed to be having a carnival, only Zhou Xing was uneasy. This script is too nonsense. By the way, will the movie be scolded badly when it is released?
