For example, Chen Mu, his biggest achievement is winning the Best Director at the Chinese Film Awards, Best Director at the Asian Film Festival, Best Film and so on.

But in fact, because of the restrictions on the subject matter, the highest box office of Chen Mu's previous films did not exceed 1 billion.

What about Fan Wencheng? He won the best director at the Treasure Island Film Festival, but in terms of box office results, Fan Wencheng is almost the same as Chen Mu, and this is already the best director at police and gangster films in China.

In fact, the films of police and gangster films, in the domestic market, have never had extreme performance.

At present, the box office record of the highest domestic film in China is still set by a comedy.

And Yang Hao, in fact, is not much different from Chen Mu and Fan Wencheng, and even with Yang Hao's films, they often have a good reputation, but the box office is not very good.

For example, Ye Qianjun, who has set a box office record for domestic films in China, was not included in the ranks of big directors because the film was too commercial.

Of course, it doesn't mean that a big director of a commercial film is not a big director, in fact, it's not the case, mainly because Ye Qianjun has had a mediocre performance in several films after that.

If a person wants to be called a great director, he does not rely on the success of one or two works.

Therefore, although Ling Xiaoge's previous performance was eye-catching, in fact, it was only popular as an actor, but not so popular as a director.

Huaguo's film market has developed rapidly in recent years, and there are more and more movies breaking 1.02 billion, such as "Shocking Showdown" at the beginning of the year, although it was not very good, but the box office also exceeded 2 billion.

Therefore, although everyone is looking forward to Yang Hao taking over "Infernal Affairs", no one thinks that they can replicate the previous two films at the box office.

Despite this, those artists in the circle are still eager for "Infernal Affairs", after all, even if the box office will not reach the previous two Lingxiao Pavilion, but it is a film directed by Yang Hao.

Therefore, those old actors with good acting skills and some qualifications in the circle have all set their eyes on the supporting roles in "Infernal Affairs".

I forgot to say, heroine, Lin Xiao originally recommended Zhou Ya, but unfortunately Lin Xiao underestimated the actress's sister, she had no schedule at all.

Especially after "My Sassy Girlfriend", the only shortcoming of the actress's sister in the past has been filled, that is, box office appeal.

Naturally, the film is about to be like a tide.

In the end, he had no choice but to send invitations to other actresses.

As a result, on the day of the audition for many supporting roles in "Infernal Affairs", there were no less than fifty stars from all walks of life.

It can be seen that no matter what, with the two signboards of Lingxiao Pavilion and Yang Hao, and the actor Wang Pengfei joining, it still seems full of temptation.

In fact, the two films produced by Ling Xiao Pavilion itself have already shocked countless people, and Yang Hao can take a fancy to "Infernal Affairs" and not hesitate to suspend the "Evil Mystery Capital" in his hand, which is naturally meritorious.

After Wang Pengfei joined, it gave many actors more reassurance.

Indeed, maybe they will have doubts about Lin Xiao's acting skills, but the situation where Wang Pengfei and Yang Hao both look away at the same time is still very small.

The audition for the supporting role in "Infernal Affairs" is in full swing.

In this movie, in addition to Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming, these two roles, many supporting roles are actually very outstanding.

HUANG ZHICHENG, HAN CHEN, LI XIN'ER, MARY, MAY, LIN GUOPING, SILLY QIANG, ETC.

Of course, there are also those characters who only show their faces once or twice, so naturally they don't need to be reviewed by Yang Hao and others personally.

The selection of supporting roles in this "Infernal Affairs" is also different from the previous two films of Ling Xiao Pavilion.

First of all, Huang Zhicheng, superintendent of the Serious Crime Unit, Chen Yongren's boss, Han Chen's sworn enemy, is in charge of a core undercover program, he selected Chen Yongren to participate in the program at the police academy, and many years later, Chen Yongren has become like father and son.

The role itself is no less demanding on acting than the two main characters.

Especially with Han Chen and Liu Jianming, they have a lot of rival scenes, and they need an old actor with acting skills to take on them, otherwise, if he is suppressed when he is in the rivalry, it will be fun.

The other is Han Chen, the underworld brother, Huang Zhicheng's sworn enemy, a shrewd and extremely far-sighted underworld brother, otherwise he would not have thought of sending Liu Jianming and others into the police station to go undercover many years ago.

This can be said to be a character on a par with Huang Zhicheng.

Originally, Lin Xiao was worried that it would be difficult to find suitable candidates for these roles, but as a result, he still found that he underestimated the old actors in Huaguo's entertainment industry.

turned out to be more than one suitable actor, and each of them is no worse than Wang Pengfei in terms of acting skills, but many times, if the acting skills are good, they may not be able to get out of position.

This can be regarded as letting Lin Xiao see what it means to be an old drama bone.

Meanwhile.

Fan Wencheng is here.

"Director Fan, the recruitment of actors in "Infernal Affairs" is huge, should we also move?" The person who spoke was the person in charge of Tianxing's "Marginal Man" project, and also the vice president of Tianxing Film and Television Group, Zhang You.

Although the grievances between Tianxing and Lin Xiao are already old, during the Spring Festival, "Shocking Showdown" was suppressed by "My Sassy Girlfriend", which can be regarded as revenge on revenge.

And the key is that "Marginal People" and "Infernal Affairs" are both films of the same genre, and "Infernal Affairs" once invited Fan Wencheng, which is even more interesting.

It can be said that the natural "Marginal Man" and "Infernal Affairs" will be compared.

Moreover, the directors of "Infernal Affairs" and "Marginal People" are Yang Hao and Fan Wencheng, and the time for the project is about the same, and it is very likely that they will be directly faced at the end of the year.

Fan Wencheng looked at the lively scene of the audition for "Infernal Affairs" reported on the entertainment news on TV with a smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly: "It's okay, don't worry, it's still a long time." ”

"Wait, wait for their press conference. Fan Wencheng said lightly.

In fact, Fan Wencheng's mood in his heart at the moment is also extremely complicated, shame, anger, unwillingness, and so on.

He really liked the script of "Infernal Affairs", but unfortunately, in the end, because of his greed, he missed a move.

If "Infernal Affairs" invited all actor-level actors like Wang Pengfei to play those two roles, maybe Fan Wencheng would really be a little worried, but Lin Xiao?

On the other hand, Tianxing obviously created the film "Marginal Man" as an annual blockbuster this time.

Especially this year is the 10th anniversary celebration of the establishment of Tianxing Group, and Tianxing's investment in this film is also beyond everyone's expectations.

The budget is as high as nearly 500 million!

Of course, a large part of this will be divided by the actor's salary.

But because of this, the star cast of the film "Marginal Man" can definitely crush "Infernal Affairs".

What is there in "Infernal Affairs"? actor Wang Pengfei and popular star Lin Xiao.

And what about "The Marginals"?

The three major actors, the two major actresses, although one of the actors is a newcomer, but he is also an actor.

And the star lineup of "Marginal Man" is more than that, in order to make this film more luxurious and interesting, Tianxing's connections are fully reflected here.

There are nearly ten A-list stars who have made cameo appearances, not to mention stars of other levels.
