Chen Jialuo was not at all unhappy, and joked: "Then if the box office exceeds 30 million, will my brother give me a 3 million honorarium?"

"Haha, then you think too much of Arlo. Xu You laughed and said, "But if your "Prison Storm" is a big hit, then I don't need to say it, your directing price will definitely have a qualitative leap." ”

"Since my brother said so, let's do as you say. If the box office of "Prison Storm" breaks 20 million, pay me an extra 1 million. ”

Friendship is friendship, and the market is the market. In this regard, Chen Jialuo and Xu You are very rational. And Chen Jialuo is also very clear that if he doesn't agree, it is estimated that Xu You will compromise and say that the cost is between 1 million and 1.5 million to himself.

In fact, whether it is a director or an actor, the salary is probably the same. Just like Chen Jialuo invited Zhang Baorong to participate in "A Chinese Ghost Story", saying that the salary was 2 million, it was not a one-time payment to the other party. Instead, pay a portion upfront and wait until the film is finished to pay the rest.

This is the norm in the entertainment industry, otherwise people will grind foreign workers with full salary, and no one will be able to stand it. Of course, this is also to ask the actor to meet a good company and the film to sell well.

Now there are many independent production companies in Xiangjiang that are dying, and many actors are forced to take on some bad films either voluntarily or semi-forcedly. After these bad movies were released, the box office was a mess. The actor's final payment naturally ended without a problem.

To sue?

I'm sorry, people directly applied for the bankruptcy of the independent production company, and you can't even find anyone, let alone get the rest of the salary.

Seeing that Chen Jialuo was not a teenager and confused his mind, Xu You was still very optimistic and said: "Then when do you plan to start filming? You have been delaying the schedule of "A Chinese Ghost Story" again and again, and Producer Wu complained to me at the beginning, which made my head big. Not this time!"

The filming of Hong Kong was not as easy as imagined. It's not that it's over after taking the money to make a film, for directors, the biggest headache is that the producer and producer are looking for trouble. Because the shooting of a movie, every day that drags on, that's money.

Fortunately, when filming "A Chinese Ghost Story" at that time, Chen Jialuo himself was the producer, as long as he resisted the pressure of the producer.

Xu You said bluntly: "I don't care about anything else, the shooting cycle must be completed within two and a half months." As for post-production, it's going to be around Christmas!

Chen Jialuo nodded and said, "Okay!"

It's already August, and Christmas is just over four months away. The two-and-a-half-month shooting cycle is definitely not enough in his eyes, but after agreeing to it first, it will definitely be inevitable to delay it when the time comes.

"Then it's decided, I'll give "Prison Storm" a project. As for "A Chinese Ghost Story", it is now tied to your messy reports, but the popularity is unabated. ”

Speaking of this, Xu You was funny. No one thought that a behind-the-scenes producer would make a lot of noise, which is almost the same as the exposure rate of big-name stars.

With the hot screening of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the box office has skyrocketed. Entertainment newspapers and magazines obviously don't simply praise such a movie, they desperately dig up news and make up news. With such a gimmick, to fight for the increase in sales.

Since it is to sell the news, it is nothing more than to start with the main creators and actors of "A Chinese Ghost Story". Regarding the scandal between Chen Jialuo and Wang Xiaoxian, it can't be fried anymore. It is estimated that if you make it up, it will not attract any attention. So these entertainment reporters naturally set their sights on Zhang Baorong, the king of the music world whose acting skills are recognized by film critics.

"Zhang Baorong played a big name on the set, and he didn't sell Chen Jialuo's face at all!"

"Zhang Baorong has no grace and forcibly demolished reporter film!"

……

A gimmick report similar to this slandering Zhang Baorong suddenly appeared on the Xiangjiang market. Zhang Baorong has always appeared in front of the public with a modest and elegant image, and the sudden exposure of such news immediately made the people of Xiangjiang question it.

Such a storm is getting bigger and bigger, which naturally leads to the damage to Zhang Baorong's reputation.

Fortunately, when Chen Jialuo invited TVB to send an interview group to the set of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Yibao Records naturally did not allow Zhang Baorong, who was becoming more and more popular, to be splashed with sewage at this time. And many media who are very supportive will obviously not let Rong Shao be wronged, and the news of Zhang Baorong's rehabilitation suddenly formed a stark contrast to those slanderous reports!

Now that the box office momentum of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is on fire, how could Boss Lei and others be willing to see that this has affected their income.

"For the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Zhang Baorong suffered a lot"

I once visited the filming site of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and found that the production staff of the studio was full of smoke and wind, and they used all the methods that could "make smoke". It's dry ice again, it's incense again, and then turn on the big fan to blow and blow, just like that, day after day, under the influence of incense, Zhang Baorong's eyes have a problem, red spots around the eye sockets, and prickly heat, and they are swollen, and they are almost unable to see the eyeballs.

He said that the dust in his eyes caused his eyes to be inflamed, but that others were fine, and that his eyes were particularly sensitive. In addition to the suffering of the eyes, this film has a lot of "soup body scenes", being drenched in the rain for a while and being immersed in water for a while, and the worst thing is that it was a cold winter when it was filmed, which made him suffer from a cold, and he had to catch the scene. Zhang Baorong in those days was either filming or seeing a doctor.

"Demolition Reporter Film? Another Inside Story"

During the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story", there was a rumor of "dismantling the film". A newspaper pointed out that Zhang Baorong had a bad attitude, shouting and shouting to kill to get back the film. But Leslie denied: "This is how things happened, two reporters came to the set and said they wanted to take pictures, at that time Wang Xiaoxian was taking a bath shot, although she was covered with adhesive tape, she was still afraid of going away, so she didn't want to take pictures, but the reporter insisted on taking pictures, in order to avoid "wearing a broken face", the staff asked them to hand over the film to us to wash, if it didn't go out, let them publish it, so the whole thing has nothing to do with me at all." ”

Regarding the Fei Fei Lin incident, Zhang Baorong really felt very innocent. He didn't want things to get darker, so he didn't refute them, but in order to prevent the misunderstanding from deepening, he had to make a clarification.

As the director and martial arts instructor of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Chen Xiaodong personally came forward to give an interview to praise Zhang Baorong.

Zhang Baorong likes the drama "A Chinese Ghost Story" very much, but it is also the hardest one he has filmed since the film. Because "A Chinese Ghost Story" is a costume film and a ghost movie. Therefore, it is often necessary to spray smoke, dry ice, hang and so on.

And I insisted that he didn't use a stand-in, flipped and fell to the ground, and all went into battle in person. There are a total of 120 groups of scenes in this film, and he personally accounts for 11 groups, and the degree of hard work can be imagined. The filming took a long time, for many months (141 days), and many times it was said that it was almost finished, but it was delayed again and again.

I don't know how many times I have said the phrase "the last day of play". Although the shooting was very hard, Rong Shao didn't mind, on the contrary, he felt that the hard work was worth it. He thinks that this drama is both good and self-recognized, so he is willing to spend more time, and he has always listened to Chen Jialuo's guidance, and he has high hopes for this film and expects good results.

Since even the film studio of the filmmaker has come forward to support it, those reports slandering Zhang Baorong have suddenly disappeared. As Zhang Baorong's fans, they were finally relieved to see this scene. After all, no one wants their idol to be a big-name and arrogant person, and they have chosen to believe Zhang Baorong!

The only surprising thing is that Chen Jialuo, who has always had a good relationship with Zhang Baorong, has never spoken out, so that many gossip magazines still rumor that Rong Shao played a big name and annoyed Chen Jialuo.
