Chapter 638: What scale is acceptable?

In the article of the report, the composition of the actors of "The Saint of Gambling" is introduced in detail.

Except for one Chu Zhijun who can make everyone familiar with it, who are the others?

Even the media has not been able to dig out much information, the mix and match groups of the four and five lines, the fifth line is still the majority, and the cast is not a handsome guy and beautiful girl model, but it is like a gathering of middle-aged and elderly uncles and aunts.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the media report is Jiang Xia's one-man movie, which is the truth.

Except for Jiang Xia, there are no big-name actors in the movie, and among the characters created in the whole movie, only Zuo Songxing is the most outstanding, and the rest of the roles are set off in the character of plumpness. If this is not the case, Stephen Chow can't rely on this movie to jump from "Xingzai" to "Star Master", this is a movie that highlights Stephen Chow's nonsensical style.

The nonsensical performance method is a summary of Stephen Chow's performance style, and it is difficult to define such a performance before this form of expression.

Jiang Xia is now going to take out Stephen Chow's kind of performance in a new world, for many people, it is a bit too novel and difficult to adapt to, Jiang Xia has to let them adapt to this line style and performance style little by little.

And Jiang Xia is not in a hurry, she expects one movie to let everyone know, at least two movies, after all, there is also a "Gambler" queen.

The report also said that the production cost of the two films, the production cost of "God of Gamblers" is 30 million, and the overflow of publicity costs is less than 40 million. And "The Saint of Gambling" is only 30 million if you count the publicity costs, which is not as high as "God of Gamblers". It doesn't look like a sequel.

The report also compared the sequels of other films, generally speaking, the production cost of the second part is 130% of the first, and some even reach 200%. There are none of them, not to mention that this is lower than the first one. Jiang Xia's "Gambling Saint" simply opened a precedent for sequels.

As soon as this report came out, netizens were in an uproar.

After a fierce Chinese New Year, Jiang Xia, who has now won a lot of awards, is working on the sequel to "God of Gamblers", which makes many viewers who love "God of Gamblers" wait with great anticipation.

Just like the media, they also believe that with a box office of more than one billion, the investment in "The Saint of Gamblers" should be at least a part higher than that of "God of Gamblers".

Obviously, these actors, combined with a bundle, are not as well paid as Fang Ye alone, which leaves a lot of money.

But why do you want to invite these actors? Hengying is not short of money now, why don't you invite some famous actors? More importantly, who are these people except Chu Zhijun?

"Except for Jiang Xia and Chu Zhijun, who are the rest?

"Chu Zhijun has fallen off the first line this year, right?

"Upstairs, Chu Zhijun is no longer on the celebrity list, almost semi-retired, originally a first-line, but now he is directly out of ranking, so in terms of real ranking, the whole movie, Jiang Xia is the highest. ”

"Where did Jiang Xia get these actors from? Except for a beautiful woman, everyone else is so crooked and cracked, my God, I feel like I have to be more photogenic than them. ”

"Compared with these actors, I am more curious about what kind of story Jiang Xia wants to tell and need to use them, and I am a little worried. ”

"The God of Gamblers is so good-looking, the gambling saint he filmed won't become garbage, right? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be, this is Jiang Xia's work or starring him, and it will definitely not be bad, if it is bad, I guess I won't be happy." ”

"In fact, there is no need to question Jiang Xia's works, if he is not pleasing to the eye, just scold him. ”

"Can these actors do a good job?"

"The actor Jiang Xia chooses should be fine...... Right?"

"If the actors are good actors, why haven't I heard their names before? If the actors are not good actors, then what prompted Jiang Xia to choose them? Can anyone give me an answer?"

"I believe in Jiang Xia's vision, after all, there is an underground transportation station as the base. ”

"What is the underground transportation station?

"Speaking of the underground transportation station, I just found out now that this thing is good-looking, it's really good-looking, and if you have something to do, pull it out and take a look. ”

"Can that be the same? It's a TV series, it's a movie. ”

"Jiangxia God of Gamblers is good, but you can't fool around in the second part, right?

"I don't care, anyway, if the gambling saint is not good-looking, don't blame me for scolding Jiang Xia. ”

"Don't make trouble upstairs, scold Jiang Xia?

"I feel like I'm just waiting seriously, Jiang Xia's works haven't disappointed, after all, it's so joyful to scold anyone, think about embattled people to know Jiang Xia's level. ”

"Upstairs is embattled, and the MV is really good. ”

"Ask what the heroine in the MV for ten years is called, it's so beautiful, and the acting is also very good. ”

"Off topic, off topic, isn't what we're talking about now about the actors of the gambling saint? How did it become Jiang Xia's song? Pull it back, pull it back, I don't know why, I have a hunch that Jiang Xia's movie is going to do something. ”

"Hengying is going to make two gambling films this year, look at the cast of the King of Sparrows, and then look at the cast of the Gambling Saint, it is simply an adopted son and a son. ”

"This year, we have to get a lot of bets. ”

"No matter whose gambling movie it is, I'm just waiting to watch the gambling saint, I don't believe that Jiangxia will make a bad movie. ”

"I don't believe it either, come on, Jiangxia. ”

"The media said that it was Jiang Xia's movie alone, and I believed it, except for Jiang Xia, there was no one else at all. ”

……

Netizens fried the pot and discussed it on the Internet, expressing great doubts and puzzlements about the casting of Jiang Xia's "Gambling Saint", but Jiang Xia and Hengying did not come out to explain.

Jiang Xia was a little busy at this time, and Hengying was also busy with something else, "The City Full of Golden Armor" has already begun to plan, among which the group performance is a bit expensive if it really goes to invite the group performance, so I asked the people in the army to train them, and then they can just go directly to the army.

If you really go to invite a group performance, it will be a bit expensive and difficult to train, and you will have to practice for a long time just if you don't laugh and make a sound, which is far less well-trained and disciplined than the people in the army.

The martial artists are also training, and they have to train in advance for some martial arts movements. Hengying has its own martial arts, its own action guidance, and there are still a lot of people, but this time it still invited two teams, a total of four teams to create the action scenes of "The City is Full of Golden Armor".

Hengying also made great efforts, after all, 200 million is not 2 million, and it can't be child's play. What's more, in addition to "The City Full of Golden Armor", there are also two movies planned to be filmed, so Hengying's entire company is busy, and there is no time or time to explain these things to netizens.

Jiang Xia is definitely the busiest one in Hengying, in addition to acting, he also has to teach actors to act, and he also has to be a director to manage the entire crew, and more importantly, he has to worry about the casting of "The City is Full of Golden Armor".

Just two days after April, Jiang Xia was approached by Du Rong.

When eating at noon, Jiang Xia originally wanted to rest for a while, but Du Rong licked his face and asked Jiang Xia: "Director Jiang, you should give me a good word, these five actors, you have to choose one of them to play the emperor, right?"

"Just the five of them?" Jiang Xia asked.

Du Rong nodded and said: "You want an emperor, just the five of them are suitable for playing the emperor, they can live in a good style, and they can also be crazy, so you can take a look." ”

"What about the actress, who is the queen looking to play?" Jiang Xia didn't answer, but asked again.

Du Rong said: "There are not many suitable actresses, and the acting requirements for the queen are higher than those of the emperor, I think there are only two people who are more suitable, one is Qiao Xue and the other is Tong Ling." ”

"Qiao Xue? I know her, when I was in the United States, I saw her once, when I was with the crew, she performed a play with the crew I followed. Tong Ling, I don't know, what's the situation?" Jiang Xia asked.

Du Rong said: "Tong Ling is a second-tier, relatively famous in China, and has won three Golden Horse Actresses, one Academy Award Actress, and one Golden Rooster Award Actress. It's just that she takes on relatively few plays, and the plays are all high-quality, and there is not much news, especially after marriage, so she is less popular, but in the second line, and there is absolutely no problem in acting. Qiao Xue doesn't need me to say, the most well-known actress in the world among the Chinese. ”

"Qiao Xue is unmarried, right? Tong Ling is married?" Jiang Xia asked.

Du Rong didn't understand why he asked, but he still nodded and said, "Yes." Qiao Xue is divorced and once had a few months of marriage with the director of the United States. Tong Ling now has two children and is relatively happy in her married life. ”

"You go and ask Tong Ling first, show her the script, and ask her how big the scale of styling she can accept. Our style is biased towards the Tang Dynasty court, and the palace at that time was semi-open-chested and exposed, so you go and ask her, I guess she may not be able to accept it, if she doesn't accept it, then ask Qiao Xue. Jiangxia said.

Du Rong asked, "Qiao Xue also asked her how big she can accept?"

"Yes, if you can't talk about it, tell me again, I'll talk to them. Jiangxia said.

"Okay. Du Rong nodded and said, "Jiang Chan's actor, the audition will start soon, do you want to screen it in the first round?"

Jiang Xia shook his head and said, "I don't have time, I'll go directly to the second round of screening, and you go in the first round to choose people who are good-looking and willing to accept our movie style." Also, there should be a person named He Ying, who has filmed a MV with me, she is a good seedling, pay attention to it, if there is no accident in the first round, let her pass. ”

"Okay. Du Rong nodded.

When Du Rong was leaving, he was stopped by Jiang Xia again and said to him: "By the way, the first round of auditions, don't give the script, and keep less than thirty people through the second round, I can only spare a day, if there are more people, I can choke enough to see it." ”

"Don't worry, I've got it. Du Rong said. (To be continued.) )
