Entertainment Empire System
Chapter 273: Character Priority
Since it was a draw, at this time, Li Xian actually felt a trace of regret in his heart. Ye Ming was not only good at kung fu, but also had excellent acting skills. It was impossible for ordinary acting skills to make Chow Yun-fat nod. . But at this time, Director Li always has to take care of his own face, right?
Therefore, at this moment, Li Bian said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be a draw. However, one person always has to win. This makes me a little embarrassed."
It is obvious that this is biased towards Zhang Zhen. What reporters want is news, so naturally they will not say anything more. If it is said that the Golden Horse Best Actor Ye Ming has been replaced by Zhang Zhen, then this is a very big deal. It's good news, so many reporters are looking forward to something like this happening. therefore. At this time, reporters who were supposed to act as impartial supervisors looked on with cold eyes.
Although Zhou Runfa said he was optimistic about Ye Ming, at a time like this, he himself had to hang out in the crew. If the relationship with the director was too tense, it would be bad. He is an emperor and a superstar. Yes, he has the ability to influence the character, but in a situation like this, it is not worth it for him to offend the director for Ye Ming. Being able to say that Ye Ming did a good job during the review process is already a huge help to Ye Ming.
How far Ye Ming can go at this time depends on Ye Ming's own ability. The entertainment industry has its own rules. No matter how it is said, it always depends on one's own strength.
Luck and background are actually part of strength. Just like Zhang Zhen, with Li Yu as his background, in such a situation, he can tie with Ye Ming, and even have the possibility of a comeback. .
At this moment, Dong Ping didn't express anything, and his facial expression seemed to have nothing to do with him. As one of the investors, whoever plays the second male lead would not have much influence on him. Just now he also That is to say, he stood on Ye Ming's side after seeing Ye Ming's good performance. There was no need for him to offend Xu Ligong to death.
The two people who supported Ye Ming were silent when this happened. It seemed that the whole situation was very unfavorable to Ye Ming.
In the entire hall, the reporters were very happy at the moment. Once Ye Ming was replaced, it would be big news. Zhang Ziyi and Yang Ziqiong were actually quite happy. Ye Ming was unlucky. As a witness to Ye Ming, The two actors, who were obviously not very pleasing to the eye, were naturally very happy in their hearts.
At this moment, it is almost said that no one will be optimistic about Ye Ming, and no one will believe that Ye Ming can make a comeback in such a situation. At this time, Ye Ming showed a proud smile. This was the smile of a winner. Ye Ming showed such a bright smile at this moment, but it was quite strange.
Zhang Ziyi glanced at Ye Ming and said noncommittally: "This is the magnanimity of the Golden Horse Best Actor. Even in such a situation, he can still laugh. Sure enough, it is not something ordinary people can do." In this case, It sounds ironic no matter what. If the Golden Horse Best Actor is easily replaced by Zhang Zhen, then Ye Ming actually has no face to stay on the set.
This is very fair irony. Ye Ming didn't seem to hear Zhang Ziyi's words, which made Zhang Ziyi very angry, as if he punched the air. But at this time, Zhang Ziyi was also curious about how Ye Ming wanted to change his current situation.
In front of everyone, Ye Ming presented a contract and said confidently: "Actually, if it's difficult, then the director has nothing to be embarrassed about. Everything is done with a contract. Where can I find a contract to do it?" If so, nothing will be a problem.”
Contract, of course, there is a contract between Li Yu and Ye Ming. At this time, Zhang Ziyi said first: "Didn't the director say that when signing the contract, he did not confirm that you were the second male lead, so this is what the director is embarrassed about. Place." Although Li Yu didn't say anything, he nodded and agreed with Zhang Ziyi's words.
Ye Ming opened the contract and said: "Actually, it was said that there was no clear choice for my role. However, in the supplementary clauses of the contract, there was a clause that under the same conditions, I had priority. Right, otherwise the director has breached the contract and will compensate me ten times the remuneration. Therefore, now the director actually has two choices. One is to let me continue to play Luo Xiaohu. Of course, I will not embarrass the director. This way If the director must have said that he thought I was not suitable and paid me five million, then according to the contract, I would actually be able to give up."
Is there such a clause? Hearing this, Li Yu was immediately struck by thunder. Is there really such a clause? At this moment, Li Yu couldn't care less about his image. He grabbed the contract from Ye Ming's hand and opened it to search carefully.
At this time, Ye Ming also kindly said: "It is stipulated in the second article of the supplementary clause. If the director has any questions, he can directly ask the lawyer.
We are all people who abide by the law, and we just have to do everything in accordance with the contract. "
At this time, Li Yu saw the second supplementary clause of the contract, and his face was as gray as ashes. Is there really such a clause? How could he be so stubborn? At that time, he actually said that he would sign such a contract. Contract. From Li Yu's expression, everyone can see that this is indeed stipulated in the contract.
A young reporter below asked Lao Bai for advice: "Teacher Bai, what does this right of first choice mean? It looks like it's still a big trap."
Although he had always said that Ye Ming was not very pleasing to the eye, under such a situation, Lao Bai actually admired Ye Ming very much this time. He said sincerely: "The right of first choice, under normal circumstances It is a clause that only veteran A-list stars will indicate when signing contracts. In fact, under normal circumstances, this clause has no effect. Most of the roles are given when signing contracts.
But once such a contract is signed, if there is any conflict between the director and the actor, it will not be so easy for the director to change the role. It is unlikely that a newcomer would know such a clause, but he did not expect that Ye Ming would actually say that he would know such a clause. This is simply unbelievable. "
Not only is it unbelievable, many people have the impression that Ye Ming is a monster. In his second year, he had the intention to sign such a contract. He is not a monster.
In such a situation, even though Xu Ligong had always supported Li Yu, at this moment he shook his head at Zhang Zhen and expressed his helplessness. Zhang Zhen had no hope at all.
If there was no such clause, then in such a situation, it would be Ye Ming who would be completely defeated and leave in despair. but. At this moment, the initiative has changed, and Li Yu has to make a choice.
Lose money? [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon] You don’t have that much spare money at all, and five million is not a small amount. Zhang Zhen lowered his voice and said: "Uncle Xu, the investment in this crew is so large, it's not less than five million, right?"
This is a so-called international investment. It is said to be 30 million U.S. dollars, more than 200 million yuan, these five million. There is no shortage of money at all, at least in Zhang Zhen's opinion, Director Li Yu should be the kind of person who is not short of money.
At this time, Xu Ligong shook his head, feeling that he hated iron but could not make steel. How could Zhang Zhen have such childish ideas? Immediately he reprimanded: "Shut up, you think this is similar to independent production, and foreign investment is just a sign. Director Li is indeed a cultural person, not suitable for business. This time he made a movie. He only had money after mortgaging his own property, so it is absolutely impossible for him to come up with five million."
Without money, naturally I didn't have the guts to replace Ye Ming.
This time, the reporters who came to attend the opening ceremony witnessed a show of twists and turns. First, Director Li suppressed Ye Ming, and later Zhou Runfa and Dong Ping supported Ye Ming. However, because of the director's stubbornness, Ye Ming's role It was almost said that he was taken down by Zhang Zhen.
However, Ye Ming finally used the right of first option in the contract to complete the comeback instantly. This is simply dazzling. No matter how you say it, the opening ceremony of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" completely attracted everyone's attention. In such a situation, there was only one winner, and that was Ye Ming.
Of course, in the end, Li Yu still asked someone to do public relations and deliberately beautified his image. At least there were relatively few negative news about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". An influential veteran reporter like Lao Bai Yuguo even said that each person could receive a thousand yuan red envelope.
At this time, Li Yu sat in his room angrily and said viciously: "I didn't expect that Ye Ming is not only great at talking about kung fu, but he is also so good at digging holes. Is this a trap? This is like a bottomless abyss, and I fell into it all of a sudden. I am so ambitious."
At this time, Xu Ligong said with a smile: "Lao Li, don't be angry. What's the big deal? It's just to make Ye Ming arrogant for a while. He is on your crew. If you want to deal with it, Tai , isn’t that a very easy thing? Where do you plan to go after this opening ceremony?”
After some persuasion from Xu Ligong, Li Yu finally began to calm down. After thinking about it, he said: "According to the plan, we should go to the grassland first to film a scene like this between Luo Xiaohu and Yu Jiaolong." Yes, if we talk about summer, then the green on the grassland and the movie are a bit disharmonious."
The bamboo sea must be green, if it is at this time. If the grassland is also green, then the overall effect is indeed difficult to explain clearly.
What the director has to consider is the overall effect, so shooting in the grassland first is the first choice. At this time, Xu Ligong said confidently: "This. It's not just that the opportunity has come. It's not up to you to decide where to go. This time I'm going to the grassland. Don't go there yet. Go to the Bamboo Sea first and take pictures inside the Bamboo Sea. Since Ye Ming said he won’t give you face, can you postpone the filming of his scenes?”
As a director. There is indeed such a right, so. , In such a situation, Li Yu's eyes lit up. Immediately he beamed with joy: "That's right, I have the final say on where to go. This guy Ye Ming actually said that he won't give me face. How can I make it easier for him? Shoot the scene of the bamboo sea first, kill it His majesty made him think that I, the director, was just a decoration."
The movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has a lot of good dramas and is worth looking forward to - "Southern Sunday" is the title of Lao Bai. This is a manuscript that I paid for. In fact, Lao Bai had another title that was useless, which was "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" 】The secret war continues, and the director cannot control the overall situation. Of course, giving money has the advantage of giving money. The entertainment industry is like this. Even if you talk about the same news and do good public relations, you can still make big things small.
The [Entertainment Morning Post] was more polite, but also from Ye Ming's point of view, saying that Ye Ming deserved to be the Best Actor and had shown his due talent. As for why he showed off his talents, this is just a passing mention. As for Zhang Zhen, basically losers have no right to appear. It is almost said that no one can say what Zhang Zhen is like.
The opening ceremony of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon included Zhou Yunfa, Yang Ziqiong, and Ye Ming. As for the little Zhang Zhen, basically no one would pay attention. It was even said that Xu Ligong had lost confidence in Zhang Zhen. However, fortunately, it was the person he recommended. For his own sake, he also left a role for Zhang Zhen in the crew of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
When preparing to go to the location, Sister Fang Fang said while sorting out the information: "Boss, since you have offended the director in this crew, there will basically be nothing easy to do. If it were me, I would just deal with this directly." Forget about quitting the role, what's the big deal? I heard that Li Yu went into debt to shoot this film, so it's possible that it will be shut down. Are you willing to wade into this muddy water?"
Sister Fang Fang naturally has her own channels and knows some things about Li Yu, so she has a relatively deep understanding of the crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
However, Ye Ming said with great certainty: "I can't quit this role. In fact, director Li Yu can't quit either. We all have no way out. The key is to see who can persist for the longest time. If it is said that he can persist until the end, Once the filming of the movie is completed, it will be a win-win situation. Don’t worry, [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon] is a movie worth looking forward to.” (To be continued)
