Chapter Ninety-Six: Conquest

Cheng Haojia He Xin once went in the name of visiting the sick, the house is not big, the layout is similar to the house he rented, the two-bedroom husband house of more than 50 square meters, the key is still on the fifth floor, and there is no elevator, Cheng's father is not in good health, and it is very inconvenient to go up and down the stairs.

Hearing Cheng Hao's words, his heart moved, and he said: "Don't go later, let's just go home for the New Year this time and buy the house, so that your parents can live in a new house as soon as possible." ”

There was silence on the other end of the line.

He smiled and said, "What, still see me outside?"

Cheng Hao was silent for a long time before he said, "Don't you want to buy a house yourself." ”

"I'm not in a hurry, besides, it's not too late to buy it after I get paid for my next film. ”

In his memory, it seems that housing prices did not start to take off until 03 and 04, and prices have been relatively stable in the past two years.

"Well, I'll borrow you. Cheng Hao hesitated.

Although Cheng's father has undergone an organ transplant and his body is gradually recovering, he has not completely passed the rejection period after all. And Cheng's father has been sick for so many years, and she is also afraid in her heart, in case she ...... So it's also a good thing to let parents move into a new house sooner.

Moreover, the relationship between the two is not what it used to be, and it seems natural to accept the help of her boyfriend.

Of course, He Xin was very happy, and immediately said: "Then you quickly call your parents and ask them to see if there is a suitable real estate, and it is best to buy an existing house." ”

"Hmm!"

Cheng Hao replied softly, and then asked, "How many days will you go back to the capital this time?"

He Xin groaned: "I'm just going to meet with Director Gao, and I may want to try the play, at most two or three days." After you finish the work on your side, things on my side are estimated to be about the same, and we will meet in Qingdao then?"

"Well, good!"

Speaking of Li Mengnan's brainless phone call last time, it really brought a surprise to He Xin. It turned out that the scene in which he wanted to play a supporting role as a policeman was actually "Conquest", and the director was called Uncle Gao Qun. And the role of the male number one of the gang boss that their crew lacks is the famous Liu Huaqiang, Brother Qiang!

He was very excited at the time, and in his memory, he had replayed the most TV series on TV, from "Journey to the West" when he was a child, the old version of "The Story of Bandits in Oolong Mountain", to the later "Huanzhu Gege", "Conquest", "Parents' Love" and so on.

Except for the first time when he watched "Conquest" from beginning to end, he didn't know how many times he watched it intermittently. It is said that Brother Meng Nan played a policeman named Lei Dan in it, and his sense of existence was too low, when he said that he would play a supporting role as a policeman, He Xin was stunned and didn't think that it would be the drama "Conquest".

Later, Li Mengnan called for the second time and said that the director was very satisfied with it, but he didn't dare to invite him, the new Golden Horse actor. In Brother Meng Nan's rambling words, he heard it, it turned out that the budget of the crew was not high, and he was afraid that he would ask for too much and couldn't afford it.

He Xin didn't pay attention to it at first, so he casually asked who the director was? Li Mengnan said that he was the director of "Thirteen Murders", and his name was Uncle Gao Qun.

At that time, he didn't expect it to be "Conquest", because Brother Qiang's light in "Conquest" was so dazzling that it was easy to ignore who the director was. However, he still knows the name Uncle Gao Qun, and it is also because the picture of Zhou Xun grinding the rope in "The Wind" impresses him too much, and the person who can design this kind of punishment is definitely a talent, which makes him remember that the director of this movie is Uncle Gao Qun.

"Thirteen Murders" is a documentary TV series, he also knows that this kind of documentary TV series was popular in the past two years, and the TV series directed by Gao Qunshu was broadcast on Beijing TV the year before last, with high ratings, which caused a lot of repercussions in the society.

It wasn't until Li Mengnan joked that if it weren't for his old-fashionedness, he wouldn't have been able to play the role of Liu Huaqiang, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked the name of this TV series, which was indeed "Conquest".

Speaking of Yan Wang's cameo appearance in "Endless", a drunkard who didn't even have a name, to later becoming a first-line star, he couldn't do without two dramas. The first was "Conquest", which made him from a small actor to a well-known second-tier star, and the later "Latent" established his status as a first-line star.

He hurriedly inquired about the situation of the play.

It turned out that Uncle Gao Qun did fall in love with Sun Honglei at the beginning, but when he contacted him, Sun Honglei had already received Yan Jiangang's "The Dust Settled". This is the work of the famous writer A Lai, director Yan Jiangang was also a teacher of the Chinese Opera Directing Department, and once directed CCTV dramas such as "The Kingdoms of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Warring States Chapter" and "Qin Shi Huang".

In contrast, although "Thirteen Murders" directed by Gao Qunshu has been recognized by the audience, no one in the circle can look down on it. When he mentions the name of Uncle Gao Qun, everyone often says whether it is a documentary film?

Documentary TV series like "Thirteen Murders" can only rank third in the current film and television industry, and their status is roughly the same as that of later online dramas. The highest level is, of course, movies, followed by TV series played by big actors and TV series played by small actors, and the lowest level is documentary TV series played by non-professional actors like "Thirteen Murders".

So it is also the male number one, and the two plays are put in front of Sun Honglei, of course people will choose to be directed by a big director and adapted from the works of famous writers, as well as Liu Wei, Song Jia, and Fan Bingbing, who is currently on fire, to join "The Dust Settles".

Speaking of Uncle Gao Qun, he was worried that he would not dare to invite him, which is also interesting to say. Gao Dao was very angry at that time, and after not inviting Sun Honglei, he was ready to invite Wu Zhenyu and Huang Qiusheng from Hong Kong to join. As a result, as soon as I got in touch, the quotations of Hong Kong stars were all more than one million, which suddenly made the budget of the whole drama only more than 3 million, and the high director who was less than 4 million was defeated, leaving a psychological shadow since then.

He Xin knew that "Conquest" in the original time and space was still starring Sun Honglei, but he didn't know what happened in the middle. Although he is now a Golden Horse actor, he knows very well in his heart that what he lacks most now is audience popularity and popularity.

"Jade Guanyin" will definitely be popular in the future, but it is Sun Li who is popular, although he can also gain some popularity, but this is far from enough. "Conquest" is undoubtedly the best choice, and what is even more rare is that he likes the role of Brother Qiang very much.

Director Gao is worthy of starting out with documentary films, bad guys are bad guys, there is no need to deliberately smear the bad guys and pretend to be very pretentious like in Haiyan dramas.

However, there is one thing He Xin can't figure out, that is, since Director Gao watched the videotape of "Hard to Escape with Wings" sent by Li Mengnan, why didn't he fall in love with Zhao Yanguo, who played Brother Hao, but fell in love with him?

Li Mengnan told him with a smile that Director Gao had also mixed in the society before, and he was quite familiar with the gangsters in the society, and Brother Hao played by Zhao Yanguo was too exaggerated and arrogant, in the words of Director Gao, this kind of goods were knifed. On the contrary, he played Ayou, gloomy and ruthless, although he did not have many scenes and was out of place, but it was just in line with the character.

Since this is the case, he must win this role, and the salary and so on are easy to say, so he quickly contacted Sister Hong.

As a result, when Chang Jihong heard the name Uncle Gao Qun, her first reaction was the one who made the documentary? And after reading the script, she immediately objected, saying that this drama and TV series are not like TV series, and documentaries are not like documentaries, and it is not a good show if it is not up or down.

He Xin couldn't explain clearly, but he insisted that he originally loved money the most, and he did not hesitate to reduce his salary. Sister Hong had no choice but to contact Uncle Gao Qun, since the salary is not a problem, then everything else is easy to say, the only request made by Uncle Gao Qun is to meet him and try the play.

It stands to reason that this requirement is somewhat excessive, even Zhao Baogang doesn't want him to try out, so why does Uncle Gao Qun shoot a documentary?

But He Xin still agreed, preparing to return to the capital to meet Director Gao for an interview scene before the New Year.
