This actor just wants to verify
Chapter 216: The Best in the World (6600 monthly tickets plus additional chapters)
Wang Jing does not plan to be a director himself.
He already has other dramas in the works, and now he has to be the producer, producer, and screenwriter of this one. He will definitely be too busy to be a director.
Therefore, Deng Yancheng, Liang Xinquan, and Liu Zifu were invited to jointly direct, and it was also convenient to divide them into groups A and B to speed up the shooting progress.
These directors are relatively average.
Ordinary directors are easy to control. Wang Jing is also a gold medal director who has filmed "The Deer and the Cauldron" and "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber: The Demon Cult Leader". These three directors only need to implement his ideas.
You can't find an ordinary martial arts director.
Since it is a martial arts film, the martial arts director is the soul of the work.
What can ordinary martial arts directors use to shoot TV series.
Therefore, the best martial arts directors must be found.
Wang Jing threw out the king bomb right away.
Cheng Xiaodong!
He is the action designer of classic movies such as "A Chinese Ghost Story", "Hero", "Ancient and Modern Battle of Qin Terracotta Warriors", "New Dragon Inn", "Shaolin Soccer", and "The East is Red 2: The Storm Rising".
The two have collaborated many times.
In 1992, Wang Jing directed "The Deer and the Cauldron" and "The Deer and the Cauldron 2: The Dragon Cult", both of which were directed by Cheng Xiaodong.
In 2002, Cheng Xiaodong directed the movie "Red Fruit Agent", and Wang Jing served as the producer.
Cheng Xiaodong would definitely not refuse Wang Jing. Moreover, although he had no shortage of work, it was also a good choice to try the waters in the mainland under the situation of reduced production of Hong Kong films.
After a discussion, several people discussed.
Wang Jing strongly recommended Zhang Weijian to play the leading male role.
Zhang Weijian's popularity and strength were there, and the producers certainly had nothing to say.
However, they also wanted to take the role of Gui Hai Yidao and recommended Taiwanese star Huo Jianhua to play the role.
If so, the leading male and the second male roles were all ready, and the rest could be picked from handsome men and beautiful women from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong.
The problem was Zhang Weijian.
He was indeed popular. He appeared in ten movies a year in 1993, and later switched to TV series, with 4 TV series in 2001 and 3 in 2002, and he was basically the leading actor in all of them.
Not only was his schedule full, but his body was also a bit exhausted.
Although he valued Wang Jing's invitation, he still declined the play and only agreed to take time to come and make a cameo appearance.
Since the target market is the mainland, Wang Jing decided to find actors in the mainland after being declined by Zhang Weijian.
Find a mainlander to play the leading male role.
The producer had no objection. The rabbit had to be fattened before being killed. First, the name was established, and it would be convenient to promote Taiwanese artists later.
Cheng Xiaodong had some opinions.
His requirement for the leading male role was that he must be able to fight, and weak and docile would not do.
Wang Jing's requirements were simpler...
Popular!
He would choose whoever was popular.
He listed all the popular actors in the mainland and what works they had.
The top ones were Li Guanpeng, Huang Lin, Chen Kun, Tong Dawei, Nie Yuan... A total of 20 to 30 young actors aged 20 to 30 were counted.
Then those who seemed to have no experience in action performance were screened out, and more than half were eliminated.
Therefore, Hao Yun, who was originally ranked at the bottom, directly entered the top five because of his many action movies.
His main opponents are Li Guanpeng, Nie Yuan, Huang Haibing, and Wu Jing.
Hao Yun is ranked last, after all, he has few leading roles. If he hadn't filmed so many movies, he might not even enter Wang Jing's sight.
Among these five people, Wang Jing hit Hao Yun at first sight.
The reason is very simple, because Hao Yun is the most popular in Hong Kong. He has participated in "Infernal Affairs 1" and "Infernal Affairs 2", as well as "PTU" and "The Thousand Machines", and is now working with Fang Long on "New Police Story".
He is filming in Hong Kong, and there are gossips about him every day in Hong Kong's entertainment gossip.
Yunzai and Edison went to the nightclub again.
Yunzai had lipstick marks on his face and fled in a panic from the hot girls.
xxx threatened to sleep with Yunzai within a month.
And so on.
There are also positive ones. For example, most people who have worked with Hao Yun praised Hao Yun when they mentioned him in interviews.
They said that he was serious about acting and was eager to learn.
He could communicate with ordinary martial artists or action doubles for several hours.
Yesterday, the media also photographed him drinking with Fang Long, Wong Yuk-long and others until late at night. Wong Yuk-long ignored Fang Long and talked happily with Hao Yun, reluctant to leave.
Hao Yun never thought about integrating into the Hong Kong circle.
But in various inadvertent ways, he unknowingly established good relationships with various bigwigs.
Wang Jing did not consider the top few, and asked about the crew of "New Police Story" and asked someone to send a business card over.
Now, they finally sat together to communicate.
"This Duan Tianya..." Hao Yun had no prejudice against Wang Jing. As long as he was not forced to shoot a third-level film, it would not be a bad idea to cooperate.
He still had to look at the role.
"I wrote this script based on many Jin Yong characters, such as Gui Hai Yi Dao, whose life story is exactly the same as Yang Guo's, except that he doesn't have one arm missing.
But this role has been booked by the boss.
Cheng Shi Fei accidentally entered the palace and had disputes with the princess, but he is actually Wei Jue Ye.
Zhuge Shen Hou endured humiliation and schemed hard, and even turned against his master and apprentice. You can definitely think of Yue Buqun.
The role of Duan Tian Ya that I asked you to play is basically the script of Linghu Chong."
Wang Jing was very frank and talked about the creation process of the crew without any hesitation. Whether it was a tribute or plagiarism, it did not affect his establishment of the character.
"Linghu Chong, why not ask Li Guanpeng?"
Hao Yun thinks Li Guanpeng's Linghu Chong is OK, but not as free and easy as Lu Songxian.
"I don't know if the injury he suffered while filming The Legend of the Condor Heroes has healed. He was injured while filming The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, and The Legend of the Condor Heroes. An untrained action actor is too delicate. And didn't he say that he would never take on a martial arts drama again after The Legend of the Condor Heroes?" Wang Jing had considered it before.
He gave up after a moment of consideration.
Li Guanpeng's Guo Jing was criticized, which was also one aspect of giving up.
Wang Jing is good at making commercial films, and knows that the biggest taboo of commercial films is to feed the audience shit.
Since you want to make money, please the audience more.
Don't do anything that the audience doesn't like.
"30 million investment, Linghu Chong..." Hao Yun pondered.
If this game is not a mowing game, the quality of the show will not be too bad.
No one dares to cheat the producer's money casually. Yang Kuideng is the black knife godfather of Taiwan. He once supported Li Lianjie to break away from the control of the Xiang family. The Xiang family dared not offend him. Even if Wang Jing had ten guts, he would not dare to cheat Yang Kuideng to death.
Seeing that Wang Jing could choose such an excellent person, his vision must be equally excellent.
"The pay will not be low, we can give 30,000 per episode!"
Wang Jing smiled secretly in his heart. They planned to pay Zhang Weijian 80,000 per episode.
If they find Li Guanpeng, it will definitely not be lower than this number. After all, Li Guanpeng's total pay for shooting 42 episodes of The Legend of the Condor Heroes reached 3 million.
"It's not a matter of money. From January to April next year, I will star in Blood Romance directed by Teng Wenji, which may not coincide with the schedule." Hao Yun was a little embarrassed.
Of course, he certainly didn't use it as an excuse to shirk.
If you want to shirk, just don't mention the specific schedule. Anyway, my schedule will definitely conflict with yours, even if it doesn't conflict.
The key point of mentioning the schedule is to explain that I am already starring in a TV series. If you really want to invite me...
You have to pay more!
If Wang Jing doesn't want to increase the salary, what should he do?
That's easy. Oh, our schedules really do collide. Even if the deal doesn't work out, we can still be friends. Let's get drunk today.
"Haha, isn't this a coincidence? Our drama will start filming at the end of April and will be finished in July. Rongzi is here today. I'll make the decision. I'll raise your salary to 40,000 per episode, and your total salary will not be less than 1 million. You can leave the schedule from May to July to your brother Jing. Let's work together. What do you think?"
Wang Jing is not tall, but he is generous and generous. Hearing what Hao Yun said, he raised the salary by 10,000 without hesitation.
Even if it's 10,000, it's half the price of the original starring role. The remaining money can be used to make a few more special effects and improve the quality of the drama.
"Brother Jing, why didn't I meet you earlier!" Hao Yun shook Wang Jing's hand with a sincere face.
Now the schedule is really full.
After the filming of "New Police Story", he will go back to film "Heart Labyrinth". Thanks to Guo Degao's efforts, the contacts have been made, and they are just waiting for him to go back and start.
"Heart Labyrinth" is not difficult to shoot. With all the storyboards drawn, Hao Yun is confident that it will be finished in more than a month.
By then, he will be able to join the crew of "Blood Romance".
"Blood Romance" can be finished by the end of April, and he can seamlessly join the crew of "The World's Number One".
Both dramas are absolutely the leading male.
The official casting time for "The Return of the Condor Heroes" is June. Given Zhang Jizhong's character, he will definitely have to work hard for several months, and he may not be able to shoot in October.
If "The Return of the Condor Heroes" can be won, Hao Yun will have shot three TV series in 2004.
All of them are the leading male!
When we evaluate the four young actors again, he will definitely be in without any suspense.
Crossing the third line, he was directly promoted to the second line.
The main reason is that it is too tight. The development of actors needs to go through precipitation. Popularity and reputation are like this. Otherwise, it is not impossible to rise to the first line.
Hao Yun is popular enough to win the leading role in three TV series.
He is popular and cheap. If the capital does not strongly want to support him, it is normal for him to win the leading role.
It is just like choosing a girl.
Li Guanpeng wants 3 million, but Hao Yun only wants 100.
And he is more handsome than Li Guanpeng.
Experienced people know how to choose. It is not good to play the same money three times.
