Chapter 751: Schadenfreude

It will take a while for the crew to enter the venue to meet the audience, and Fan Binbin, who is idle, chatted with Wang Xiaoming.

The two of them are old acquaintances, and they are not competitive when they are in Huayi, and the relationship is not bad on the surface.

It's basically no secret that Fan Binbin wants to compete for the role of Daji in the "Fengshen" series, after all, she has played this role, and the response is good.

And in the whole "Fengshen", Daji is also the final female character in the scene, and most of the other female characters are supporting roles that have not appeared for a long time, and now Fan Binbin will not play other actresses.

Of course, if it is directed by Tang An himself, the supporting role is not impossible.

As for what role Wang Xiaoming wants to compete for, Fan Binbin can also guess.

The king is definitely not suitable, and there are only the roles of Yang Jian and Ji Fa.

"You want to audition for Yang Jian this time?" asked Fan Binbin.

"Yes. ”

Wang Xiaoming nodded, there is nothing to hide, with his coffee position, there are not many roles to choose from.

In "Legend of the Gods", it was originally planned that Yang Jian, and in the entire story of the gods, the roles of the younger generation belong to Yang Jian and Nezha who are the most well-known.

It is definitely not possible to let him play Nezha, then the best role is Yang Jian.

Of course, there are also Ji Fa and Bo Yi exams, but Yang Jian is more well-known, difficult and risky, and once successful, the harvest is also huge.

Ji Fa should have a little more scenes, if you can't get Erlang God, Ji Fa is not impossible.

However, Wang Xiaoming didn't have much confidence, he was a little worried, "We haven't been in contact with Director Wu either, we don't know him very well, this casting seems to be his own decision, and Tang Dong will not interfere." ”

Domestic directors like to use acquaintances, and the deeper the acquaintances know, they are very clear about the characteristics of the actors and the way they perform, and the crew is easy to manage.

Otherwise, like those big directors, they prefer newcomers, newcomers mean a blank slate, and it is easier to adjust.

After all, most actors' performances have their own characteristics, and once they are fixed, it is difficult to change them.

Fan Binbin shook his head and said, "With such a big project and more than 300 million US dollars, how can Tang Dong not interfere, you have a good relationship with Tang Dong, and the opportunity is greater." ”

Wang Xiaoming shook his head, sighed and said, "In the past few years in Huayi, you still don't know him, friendship is useless, and it is useless if it is not suitable." ”

"The Wind" and "Chinese Partner", Wang Xiaoming is the actor who has cooperated with Tang An the most besides Liu Ye, and they are all starring.

At the same time, these are also the only two movies that Wang Xiaoming can get his hands on, so he can successfully gain a firm foothold on the big screen.

But the subsequent "Shocking Demon Thieves" and "Edge of Tomorrow" have no part for him, the former must have a stage and comedy effect, which he thinks he can do, "The Legend of Deer and Ding" and "Merry Young Tang Bohu" are not comedies.

When he auditioned for "Edge of Tomorrow", he was in the soup because he was not tall enough, and he also carried out special training, didn't he just suffer a little, and he knew that he should have prepared a pair of height-increasing shoes.

This time I learned the lesson of the last time, Wang Xiaoming is already asking people to customize a pair of height-increasing shoes, which can definitely wear the effect of 1.8 meters, and it does not seem to be out of harmony.

After all, Yang Jian's character must have a very high appearance.

Fan Binbin said, "The project of two billion, how can Tang Dong rest assured that Director Wu will decide for himself, you have already got the audition time over there, and the audition will be made before the end of the month, and it just so happens that Tang Dong is also about to shoot "Operation Red Sea", choosing this time to audition, it must be that Tang Dong wants to set the actor before leaving." ”

"Operation Red Sea" has long been announced to the public that it will be released in the summer of 2015, and there is still a year to go, and it is certain that Tang An should start filming after finishing "Mysterious Superstar".

The "Fengshen" series has been in preparation for almost two years, and there is no rush at this time, but I chose to audition when Tang An's new film is about to start, and it is obvious that Tang An is going to check it personally.

Wang Xiaoming was right when he thought about it, if this was the case, he and Tang An would at least have a good relationship, and there was more hope.

Then they talked about their recent work, Fan Binbin talked about the new film "The Big Bombing" he just received, and wanted to take advantage of "Wolf Warrior" to bring up the popularity of military films, plus Tang An's "Operation Red Sea", rubbing the popularity, maybe there will be surprises at the box office.

Wang Xiaoming also knows a little about the big production with an investment of 80 million, he asked, "Isn't this the film prepared four years ago, and after so many years, it is finally about to start filming?"

Fan Binbin nodded and said, "Originally, there was a big gap in funds, but Hehe Film and Television took the initiative to come to the door, not only to bear the rest of the investment, but also to expand the cost to 300 million." ”

The original main theme movie with an investment of 80 million yuan was still a project led by Yang Buting, chairman of China Film at that time, but now it has become a commercial war film with an investment of 300 million.

With an investment of 300 million yuan, there are no two in China in a year, and Fan Binbin is also very happy to receive this project.

Wang Xiaoming was a little puzzled, such a stupid investor is still rare, and he is generally eager to reduce the cost as much as possible, but he has never seen such a direct pile of 80 million costs to 300 million, it will not be a panic with a lot of money.

Thinking about it carefully, behind Hehe Film and Television is Kuailu Group, a financial company, with more than a dozen P2P platforms, and it is estimated that raising more than 200 million is not a big problem, and it is the user who loses it.

The boss looks like he has been in the film industry all the year round, always wears a white Mao suit when he appears in front of the media, likes to take photos with celebrities with a thumbs up, and posts the photo on Weibo, and then @ the star, even if he is rarely replied to, it will not diminish his enthusiasm.

Wang Xiaoming doesn't know much about him, but it seems that he is very keen on the film industry, so it is not surprising that he can bleed.

Wang Xiaoming is also a little envious of the 300 million investment project, except for the only "Taiping Wheel" that he can get his hands on, other movies don't have much box office potential, and it is unrealistic to want to win an award.

Even in order to maintain popularity, another TV series was filmed after "Jingzhong Yue Fei".

......

The launch of the "Fengshen" series, although it has just recruited actors, has already affected most of the entertainment industry.

Not only Fan Binbin and Wang Xiaoming, but now they are trying their best to get an audition spot, regardless of whether they have a film appointment or not.

The production cost of 2 billion is unique in China.

Some are quite confident for various reasons, and some are anxiously waiting for the audition to begin.

However, the summer file still has to continue, and on Monday of the new week, August 4th, the just-released "White-Haired Witch" ushered in an explosive dive, and the single box office plummeted from 43 million last Sunday to 12 million.

The drop was as high as 72%, which is a thousand miles away.

It is rare for such a high decline in the second week, and "The White-Haired Witch" only got 92 million in a whole week, 302 million in two weeks, and the follow-up is weak.

No matter how bad the reputation is, such as "Notes on Tomb Robbery" and "Little Times", the trend in the early stage will not be so low, which can be said to have refreshed the cognition of insiders.

Fan Binbin, who was originally looking forward to "The White-Haired Witch" proving her box office appeal, was also dumbfounded at this time, she knew that her reputation was not good before, but she never expected it to collapse to this point.

With this trend, it would be good if the box office next week could have 20 or 30 million, and the final total box office would be more than 300 million.

Now the so-called box office appeal does not exist, and Fan Binbin has the advantage of experience.

Wang Xiaoming is also very disappointed, it is difficult to use an actor who has just hit the street to play his own play if he changes any director and investor.

Then you have to rely on your real skills, and use your acting skills to impress Tang An and Wu Ershan during the audition.

Compared with the disappointment of the two of them, Wang Zhongjun and Xiang Huaqiang were a little gloating at this time.

Two films with the same theme, originally talked about it verbally, and the actors still wanted to go to the interview mirror.

Even if this is a normal thing, it will be unpleasant to put it on anyone.

Wang Zhongjun said quite happily, "Now I want to see how Fan Binbin took the initiative to come to the door to sign a contract, this has just pounced on a movie, it must be hopeless." ”

Wang Zhonglei asked, "Should the salary and treatment be suppressed?" ”

"Of course, if you don't sign the contract, you don't have to pick now. Wang Zhongjun said without thinking.

When the price can be lowered, capital will definitely not let go.

Originally, it is normal for actors to have other choices, and it is normal for movies to hit the streets, and the contracts that have been negotiated will generally not reduce the actors' salaries because of this, otherwise the appearance will be too ugly.

Even if Fan Binbin went to Wu Ershan to audition, in the end, Wang Zhongjun looked at the box office success of "The White-Haired Witch", and the previous cooperation would still count.

But now these two situations are still together, the role will definitely not be obtained, and the box office of the movie has collapsed, giving Wang Zhongjun an excuse.
