Chapter 380: A Headache Drama
The Embroidered Spring Knife Bar has been doing a good business lately.
In the past, this was just a bar with a lot of characteristics, and the people who came to play were either fans of Zhou Jin and Liu Sisi, or it was so fresh.
With the publicity of various media in June, everyone knows, oh, it turns out that the embroidered spring knife is a movie.
It took a year and a half, and this untimely martial arts film was to be released in the summer.
In recent years, martial arts have declined, and audiences prefer to watch action blockbusters and youth romance movies.
In the summer of 2013, it was "Fuchun Mountain Residence" and two "Small Times".
And "Embroidered Spring Knife" itself is a relatively depressing movie, with a sad background, which does not please the audience.
The only two advantages are that the story is smooth, and the second is that Zhou Jin and Liu Sisi cooperate again, which is a big gimmick for fans.
After returning from Huairou, Wen Muye rushed into the editing room with the material, and he wanted to take advantage of the summer vacation to cut out the first draft in two months.
Zhou Jin slipped back to the small bar, drank and watched movies every day, and was lazy about the world.
It's a pity that Ning Hao opened a new film and pulled him to invest, but the starring role was not his share, but was given to Huang Bo and Xu Zheng.
The reason is that he is too handsome, neither as greasy as Xu Zheng, nor as greasy as Huang Bo Tu Turtle, and if he is replaced, the character will not be established.
This made Zhou Jin feel a strong malice.
After some persuasion, the guys decided to tailor a role for him, but they wouldn't be able to make a cameo until August.
Coincidentally, Liu Sisi happened to come back from finishing in August.
In other words, Zhou Jin can spend the whole July alone, play whatever he wants, sleep when he wants, and no one cares.
This kind of leisurely life lasted until the end of July, and his cheap agent, Chen Xiaoxue, finally couldn't stand it anymore.
In the private room, Zhou Jin was lying on the sofa and chewing on popsicles, with his feet on the coffee table, and "Wulin Gaiden" was playing on the TV as the background sound, and Chen Xiaoxue dragged his arm and shook it vigorously.
"Oh, can you stop shaking," Zhou Jin was particularly upset, "If you want to shake your boyfriend, what's it to toss me." ”
Chen Xiaoxue said: "Hmph, I'm busy with the company's affairs now, where did I get my boyfriend." ”
"If you don't have one, just find one, how old am I," Zhou Jin turned over, "Tell me the requirements, I'll help you find one." ”
"I'm super good at feeding, just enough cheerilees. ”
"Hey, you're really asking for ......"
"Oh, don't talk about this, boss, you really plan to lie here, you haven't landed in the second half of the year. ”
Zhou Jinte was serene, "Don't worry, I'm waiting for a drama appointment that can win the actor." ”
"What kind of drama, can you still win the actor," Chen Xiaoxue obviously didn't believe it.
Zhou Jin said: "I don't know what the drama is, so I have to wait." ”
After all, he is rich now, and he doesn't have to be as tired as in his previous life, and he can already wait for the opportunity to come.
Because he knows that even if he doesn't go out to take on the film, the movies he invests in and the employees in his company will continue to create value for him.
Chen Xiaoxue was dissatisfied: "You can't lower your requirements, now the company has several dramas coming to you." ”
Zhou Jin continued to lick the popsicle, "Let's hear it." ”
"Okay," Chen Xiaoxue quickly took out a few documents from her backpack and put them on her lap, "Let's talk about the first one first, "You at the Same Table", the director is Guo Fan, and the heroine is thinking about Zhou Dongyu. ”
"Hmm, this is a short and tight song," Zhou Jin thought for a while, "No, how old am I, I can't shoot this kind of campus theme." ”
"Who can see the makeup," Chen Xiaoxue muttered, but changed to the next one, "This is good, especially old, "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", the director is Xu Ke." ”
"Let me play ****?"
"No, it's Shao Jianbo, and the male number two is not bad. ”
Zhou Jin pondered for a moment, "Let's put it first, let's wait." ”
In terms of works, this year he already has "Journey to the West" and "Embroidered Spring Knife", and next year he will also have "I Can Say", which is fully exposed.
Playing the second male lead in Xu Laowei's movie is a chicken rib, tasteless and a pity to abandon.
Later, I watched several dramas in a row, but Zhou Jin almost refused.
Chen Xiaoxue was very happy, "Boss, you should obediently play "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", I still have one last play here, you definitely don't like it, what is the director's name Xu Chenyi, I have never heard of it." ”
Zhou Jin sat up and patted her on the head, and said angrily: "You have a little bit of talent, Xu Chenyi has never heard of it, do you know "Shrek", that is what he painted." ”
"Shrek ......" Chen Xiaoxue was stunned, "Isn't that written by the third young man of the Tang family?"
"Forget it," Zhou Jin didn't bother to talk to her, "He's an animation director, what kind of scene is he looking for me to film?"
"Oh," Chen Xiaoxue came back to her senses and quickly swept over the document, "That movie is called, it's called "Monster Hunt"!"
"Monster Hunt?"
Zhou Jin now understood.
No wonder Xu Chenyi is directing, in this movie, the little demon king is the absolute protagonist, and special effects are supreme.
"Outwitting Tiger Mountain" will help me push it first, "Monster Hunt" can be contacted, by the way, is the heroine decided?"
"I don't know, I'll ask when I go back," Chen Xiaoxue saw that her boss finally fell in love with a movie, not to mention how happy she was, packed up the documents, and said: "Boss, you don't lack a drama appointment, but someone is still missing, just give it to him." ”
"Who?" Zhou Jin said strangely.
"Lin Gengxing, did you forget?"
"Oh," Zhou Jin patted his head, forgetting that Lin Gengxing was still signing in his studio.
The drama he didn't want to take was given to him, which was good and wasted.
"Okay," Chen Xiaoxue clapped her little hands, "Finally, there is one you like, you don't know how unreliable it is to deal with those people." ”
"Hard work," Zhou Jin rubbed her head, "There's cherries in the fridge, go eat them." ”
"You didn't say it sooner," Chen Xiaoxue slapped away his big hand and ran happily to the refrigerator.
If she negotiates a drama contract for Zhou Jin and Lin Gengxing for a drama contract, the bonus will be enough for her to be happy.
Zhou Jin was very calm, sitting cross-legged on the sofa.
"Monster Hunt" has swiped more than 2 billion at the box office, but the most impressive is the Huba Demon King, and the male and female protagonists are not outstanding.
For him, it is far less significant than "Journey to the West".
"Xiaoxue, the ones you helped me pick are all commercial films, pay more attention to literary and artistic films in the future, and independent films are fine," Zhou Jin specially advised.
Chen Xiaoxue turned around, "You have made enough commercial films, are you going to take the route of literary films?"
"Well," Zhou Jin stretched, put his hands behind his head, and leaned back on the sofa, "I'm almost thirty years old, and I can't waste my life like this anymore." ”
If you don't come back as an actor, you have to move back when you get married.
Sometimes he thinks that if he should send "Embroidered Spring Knife" to the Changchun International Film Festival, it will be difficult there.
I just don't know if those grandsons recognize it.
Chen Xiaoxue held a black-red cherry, rolled her tongue, sucked it into her mouth, and with a strong force on the two rows of small teeth, she chewed out the juice, and said vaguely: "I'll help you pay attention to it, ...... it."
She spit out the nucleus, "Aren't you familiar with those literary directors, ask them, they don't dare to look for you with your current salary." ”
In the past two years of hard work, actors' salaries have risen gradually.
More than a year ago, Zhou Jin reported a maximum of two million, and this year it will be more than 10 million, and I really don't dare to find it if it's not a big production.
This money is too easy to earn, and it is inevitable that it will not be cherished.
So Zhou Jin was lazy.
However, as soon as Chen Xiaoxue reminded him, he felt that it made sense, and he took out his mobile phone and flipped through the address book, only to find that he had actually been wandering on the edge of literary films.
Ning Hao used to make literary films, but now he is running wild on the road of genre films.
Guan Hu is quite literary and artistic, maybe "Kitchen Drama Ruffian" is competing for money, and he is thinking about filming a memoir of an old Pao'er in Beijing.
Zhou Jin is not very interested in this play, but it is okay to consult.
In his circle of friends, there are no other literary film directors.
