Chapter 159: Get rid of the Yellow Sect Master

Whether it is a movie or a TV series in the entertainment industry, it is not uncommon to change roles, from the planning of the script to the selection of personnel, and finally to the start of filming and even to the release, there may be unknown situations in every link in the middle, resulting in personnel changes, not only actors, but also every member of the crew.

There are too many unknown situations, what are the opinions of the management, the opinions of the directors, policy reasons, conflicts in the work, etc., it is possible.

For example, Er Kang was originally scheduled to invite Huang Haibing or Wu Qilong to play "Huanzhu Gege", but at that time, Huang Haibing was going to play "Sunset Forbidden City", and he didn't have time, and when he looked for Wu Qilong, he found that he was serving in the military, so this role fell to Zhou Jie.

The role of Xiao Lian and Bai Xiuzhu in "The Family of Gold Powder" is because the approval procedures and procedures for Korean actors are cumbersome and time-consuming, and the filming approval document has not been completed for more than 20 days, and finally Xu Lu and Liu Tianxian are on the line.

When the movie "Kung Fu" was filmed, the eldest brother Hong Jingbao had a conflict with Xing Ye, he couldn't stand Xing Ye's nitpicking and tossing of the work, and finally after filming for a period of time, he temporarily changed Yuan Baye to guide, Hong Fat Man also said bad things about Xing Ye to the media, but Xing Ye gave him a sum of money and dividends, and he was instantly silent.

Now "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" because of Tian Jun's resignation, Zhou Bai had to temporarily change people, decided to find Huang Xiaoming to play this role, first, Zhou Bai and Huang Xiaoming have a good relationship, and the character image also meets the requirements, honest, sunny youth image, the sect leader to play this role is very consistent.

Zhou Bai called to find Huang Xiaoming, this time he was lucky, Huang Xiaoming is now in the capital, so Zhou Bai asked him out, decided to talk to him, and invited him to star.

"What, you mean to ask me to make a movie?" asked the sect leader in surprise, the current sect leader has not acted in many plays, and his yearning and desire for movies are deep.

"Well, Xiao Ming, I don't lie to you, this role was originally a buddy in my dormitory, but he took over two TV series, and now the schedule can't be adjusted, so he can only be temporarily replaced. Zhou Bai took a sip of tea and said.

"Good guy, the screenwriter of this drama is you, I didn't expect Lao Bai to hide so deeply, you just won the Golden Rooster Actor, and now you are ready to start filming the script you wrote yourself, your development speed is too enviable. Huang Xiaoming looked at Zhou Bai like an alien, and the shock in his heart was written on his face at this moment.

It's no wonder that Huang Xiaoming has such a reaction, mainly because Zhou Bai's development is really amazing, the starting point is the supporting actor of Zhang Yimou's movie, and then the actor of a main theme movie, directly won the Golden Rooster Actor, which triggered a large-scale discussion, and now he is preparing to shoot a movie in which he is the screenwriter and the leading actor.

Although "National Anthem" has not been completely offline, and there are still some small-scale screenings, the box office has basically been decided, and the box office of 12 million has squeezed into the top ten at the box office this year.

That's not all, "My Father and Mother" is still in theaters, the box office has reached 18 million, and the total box office has exceeded 20 million without any pressure, and it is another top ten movie at the box office.

"I'm lucky, that's why I won the award, don't talk about this, you have already read the script, although our investment in this film is less than one million, and even the director and screenwriter are newcomers, but I believe that after reading the script, you will agree that this is a good story, right?" Zhou Bai said, the expression on his face was earnest.

"I'm under a lot of pressure to play with you, but I've heard Kun'er say that it's a lot of pressure to play with you, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to play this role well and drag down the movie. Huang Xiaoming's eyes flickered, he was very moved, but he was still a little worried.

"Hey, don't be presumptuous, when I was filming "National Anthem" before, my state was quite difficult to explain, so I couldn't take care of so much when I was playing, didn't Chen Kun also play the role of Nie Er very well, but no one said that he acted very badly. Zhou Bai said sincerely.

"This story is really good, I like it very much, okay, I took it. Huang Xiaoming thought about it for a while, and finally agreed.

"That's right, I believe you can play this role well, you can take it back and take a good look at this script after signing the contract, the time to prepare is very urgent, but it's not completely out of space, maybe you can win the award if you play it well." Zhou Bai laughed, and as soon as Huang Xiaoming agreed, the stone in his heart finally landed.

"You exalt me too much, I'm not a demon like you, I've watched "National Anthem" and "My Father and Mother", I really don't know how you did it, your performance is really wonderful. Huang Xiaoming waved his hand and said, although he has a certain confidence in his acting skills, he has studied for more than three years, but he knows that it is too difficult to win the award, he is not a demon like Zhou Bai.

"You, why are you so unconfident, you are from the Beiying Acting Department, and your acting foundation is already very thick, if you can integrate well into the role, you may not have any hope of winning the award. Zhou Bai shook his head and said.

"Haha, let's borrow your auspicious words, by the way, when is the crew gathering time?" asked Huang Xiaoming.

The crew assembly is not to start filming directly, but to get the actors and crew together first, discuss the shooting plan with each other, determine the filming scene and shooting location, and arrange related work matters.

"The gathering time is set for the 25th, the framing work has now begun, and the main thing is to discuss the shooting plan at that time, and now the storyboard and storyboard are being improved, don't look at our small crew, but it is completely in accordance with the process, and there will be no shooting on the head. Zhou Bai said seriously.

Many domestic directors have a problem when making movies, the storyboard script and storyboard are not easy to do, many of them decide how to shoot on a temporary basis, and they also call it their name inspiration and free creation, in fact, this approach is very immature and uncertain.

"The salary will be paid in three installments, one-third will be paid after the contract is signed, one-third will be paid at the start-up, and the final payment will be paid at the end of your scene, there is no problem with this, right?" Zhou Bai asked.

Huang Xiaoming nodded, saying that there is no doubt, many crews do this, except for special cases, few people make movies and sign contracts directly.

This time, Zhou Bai invited Huang Xiaoming to play this supporting role, and the salary was 30,000 yuan, which is not low, because the sect leader has no works now, and he still belongs to the state of his debut, and the price is relatively cheap, and his salary is 10,000 yuan higher than Zhang Jingchu, because Zhang Jingchu is a pure newcomer, and the price is the price of cabbage.

In fact, this salary is not very low, Zhou Gongzi's salary is 200,000 yuan, and Zhou Bai is a direct investor in the film, so there is no salary to talk about, before winning the Golden Rooster Award, his salary was 100,000 yuan, and now it is at least the same as Zhou Gongzi.

The money spent on the actors' salaries is about 300,000 yuan, and the rest is the salary expenses of other crew members and film money, camera rental fees, and the daily expenses of the crew.

Zhou Gongzi's salary is more expensive than Zhou Bai originally expected, Rong Xinda values Zhou Gongzi very much, if the salary is too small, Zhou Bai and Rong Xinda have no friendship, and Zhou Gongzi will definitely not be invited.

Now everything is ready, just wait for the crew to run centrally and start filming.
