In addition to Li Rengang in the house, Zheng Baorui was also there, and they saw it last time at the premiere of "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet".

Zheng Baorui used to work as an assistant director with Li Rengang, and the most classic movie he cooperated with was "Black Man"

Not only Zheng Baorui, but Liu Dong also learned later that Lu Jianqing and Xu Anhua were also working as assistants to Li Rengang at that time.

Needless to say, the latter's achievements in the field of literary films are no worse than those of the king of sunglasses, and his fame is much earlier than him.

Lu Jianming is the director who later filmed "Cold War", all of them are big directors.

In that case, Li Rengang did not come to make a movie for himself, but just played the role of a middleman.

Zheng Baorui......

Is it the Journey to the West series?

Thinking of this, Liu Dong was a little excited, his current salary has risen to 15 million, a super first-line star, but it is not easy to cross this hurdle to become a superstar.

Either rely on long-term accumulation, accumulate steadily, or come to a phenomenal blockbuster, otherwise there is basically no hope within three or five years.

When he first filmed "Thai", he thought about whether to install a villain with enough scenes in the film, but after second thought, he gave up.

Even if "Tai" can still succeed in the end, this film is just icing on the cake for Liu Dong, after all, Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang are the real core.

If Zheng Baorui really came for "Havoc in Heaven", then the problem would be easily solved.

Just a few seconds. Liu Dong had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

After calming down, Liu Dong was not polite and sat directly on the sofa, "Director Li, Director Zheng, are you looking for me?"

Li Rengang and Zheng Baorui glanced at each other, and said with a smile, "Liu Dong, you are now a Weibo king, this title is louder than any kung fu superstar, king!"

"It's just an event, there will be a king every year, I hope the audience can call me a kung fu superstar whenever I am!" Liu Dong waved his hand.

He has a lot of Weibo fans now, otherwise Xinlang would not have awarded him this award, after all, it still has to be voted by the audience.

"It's not easy to talk about kung fu superstars, after so many years, Donnie Yen is a little close to you, but Liu Dong, you have much more hope than Donnie Yen!" Li Rengang said with a smile.

"Then borrow Li Daoji's words!"

Donnie Yen is impossible, he has pounced on three or four blockbusters in a row, and the box office of "Ip Man 2" has not exploded as expected, and the response is not as good as the first one.

Liu Dong is still on the rise, starring in the film department box office harvest, although now the two are at the same level, but the potential is much greater, and much younger.

After greeting for a while, seeing that the time was not early, Zheng Baorui explained his intention.

"Liu Dong, do you have any plans for this year?"

Here it comes!

Liu Dong's heart was shocked!

"I made two movies last year, and I'm going to take a break in the first half of this year, and I'll see if there's anything suitable for me then!"

"You are on the rise now, how can you rest, the audience is forgetful, and the audience should forget about you if you haven't shown up for a year!" Zheng Baorui said earnestly.

Liu Dong also looked very distressed, "That's what I said, but there are really no suitable films recently, only a few TV series invite me to be the male number one!"

Zheng Baorui smiled, "It just so happens that I'm preparing a project right now, I wonder if you're interested?"

"Oh, Director Zheng, you say?" asked Liu Dong with interest.

"Xinghao Media wants to put the story of Monkey King havoc in the Heavenly Palace on the big screen, and now that the script has been finalized, it's just the actors, I think you are quite suitable for playing Monkey King, after all, there are high requirements in terms of action......"

It's really Monkey King!

"Director Zheng, I've practiced this monkey play a little, I don't know if you brought the script?" Liu Dong said in deep thought.

"I happen to have it with me, look at it!" Zheng Baorui took out a script from his bag and handed it over.

"The storyboard hasn't started yet, as long as you're willing to act, all the action will try to match your style!

Liu Dong took it and looked at it carefully, and there were some differences from his impression.

This is also inevitable, the movie is not like a TV series, you can know the general plot of the whole show after reading the script twice.

The film script is a story, and after the director finishes filming, there is another story in his heart, and in the end, the scissors of the editor may become another story, which no one can predict.

Of course, if you write and direct yourself, and edit it yourself, then everything is in the director's head.

However, the main line of the movie basically does not deviate from the script, so it is very difficult to shoot, just like writing a long story of more than 2 million words, in fact, it is in the author's outline from beginning to end.

Where to insert a villain to slap the face, where to insert a branch, where to insert a heroine, these are all things that I have thought of before I started writing.

If you don't have an outline, you can write wherever you want to write, unless you have a very good pen.

Even the king of sunglasses, who claims to not need a script, has a general story in his heart before filming, otherwise he will be blind.

Shoot according to this script, unless the special effects blow up the sky, otherwise you will be sprayed to death by fans.

is like "Hongmen Banquet", in fact, there are definitely not many costume films that can surpass this movie, the picture, art, lens, and action are all top-notch, especially the scene where Xiang Yu played by Liu Dong rushed into battle to kill Xiahou Ying in seconds, which is simply the pinnacle performance of costume war films.

A little cold came first, and then the gun came out like a dragon.

Just because it doesn't conform to history, it's about to be criticized as a bad movie.

"Havoc in Heaven" is the same, compared to "Journey to the West", the adaptation is too big, which is also the most criticized place.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is also nonsense, when it comes to changing history, it is said that this is, but when it comes to the movie, it will not work.

But it doesn't matter if the reputation is not good, the box office of more than 1 billion is enough for Liu Dong to let go of all his doubts.

And the bad reputation does not mean that the vast majority of the audience does not like to watch it, the "Macau Vice" series has been scolded for three years, and the box office of each department has exceeded 1 billion.

Most viewers think it's good-looking, that's enough.

The young mentally handicapped blockbuster of "Women's Federation" is not also sprayed into scum, and the box office is still popular.

Liu Dong, the king of sunglasses, can't watch any of the films except for the early "Mong Kok Carmen", and the "The True Story of A Fei", which is regarded as a classic, can't stand it when I see Zhang Guorong and Zhang Manyu at the beginning.

It can only be said that everyone's tastes are different, and films like "Macau Vice" can still be entertaining.

Movies are a kind of entertainment after all, and it can be used to pass the time, and it is enough for the audience.

Pretending to think for a while, Liu Dong closed the script, "Director Zheng, I took this film, let's make an appointment to talk about the contract!"

"Okay, let's sign the contract in three days, and you can think about what requirements you have when you go back!"

Zheng Baorui breathed a sigh of relief, it is not easy to find a star with box office appeal now, and if Liu Dong doesn't accept it, he can only find Donnie Yen.
