Chapter 220: The Audition Ends

The simple and efficient auditions ended quickly, and the actors hurried to and fro, unsurprisingly playing the role of accompanying the prince to study.

Everyone left, and there were only two "princes" left in the waiting room, Liu Dong and Donnie Yen.

Now Donnie Yen should guess no matter how stupid he is, and the culprit who caused him to lose the leading actor is Liu Dong.

"It's you!"

Although it could already be confirmed, Donnie Yen was still a little difficult to accept, and he stared at Liu Dong with disbelief on his face

"That's right, it's me!" Liu Dong said with a slight smile.

"Hahaha!" Donnie Yen burst out laughing, completely leaving his original worries behind.

"Although I don't know how you moved Cheng Xiaodong, but you are too ignorant of the sky, do you think that just one Cheng Xiaodong can push you to the position of the leading actor?"

Donnie Yen's tone was full of disdain, in his opinion, no matter how he compared, Liu Dong could not compete with him.

However, Donnie Yen thought for a while and then sneered at Li Manyuan and said, "Just rely on your agent, who thinks you have something to do with Berner and wants to influence the candidate of a production of hundreds of millions of dollars?

"Don't talk about the relationship between you and Bernard, even the director of Bernard's production department can't decide the actor of a costume production in one sentence, who can call the shots without Yu Dong's nod for this kind of role!"

Donnie Yen said that the more confident he became.

"Because I can't beat me, do you start to let go of the cannon?" Liu Dong didn't bother with him, dropped a sentence lightly, and got up to leave. Donnie Yen, whose face was full of shame, clenched his fists tightly.

......

In the audition room, Chen Kexin sorted out the information in his hand and glanced at Cheng Xiaodong next to him, "The audition is over, does Director Cheng have any ideas?"

"Or is it Donnie Yen?"

Chen Kexin smiled proudly, now it depends on how Cheng Xiaodong ends.

"As I said, Donnie Yen doesn't meet my requirements, he has no acting skills, and he doesn't even fully understand the role!" Cheng Xiaodong said disdainfully.

"Oh, is there any candidate for Director Cheng?" asked Chen Kexinqiang holding back the anger in his heart.

Cheng Xiaodong took out an actor's information and put it between the two, and said lightly, "I think Liu Dong is good, his kung fu is good, and he understands Murong Xuehu very thoroughly, and his acting skills can barely pass!"

Liu Dong?

Chen Kexin frowned, "Now is not the time to joke!"

"I don't have time to joke with you, I'll propose my candidacy to Berner!"

"Hmph! I thought who you relied on, whether you were capable or not, whether you wanted to be famous or not, do you think that just relying on the agent behind him can talk about Berner, it's too child's play!" Chen Kexin said disdainfully, he hadn't forgotten how he was bullied by Huang Jianxin and squeezed out of the crew.

"We'll know when the time comes!"

Cheng Xiaodong clenched his fists, all he could count on now was Li Manyu, once Berner still enabled Donnie......

......

At 18 o'clock in the evening, Liu Dong arrived at CMC Cinema in Chaoyang District on time to attend the premiere of the movie "The True Colors of Men".

This is the second time he has participated in the premiere, and compared with the slightly shabby "Fist of Life and Death", this modern action film with an investment of more than 80 million is undoubtedly more sought after by himself.

This can be seen from the layout of the movie theater, the exterior wall of the theater, the LED display, including the internal staircase, the waiting hall, and other eye-catching positions are posted with movie promotional posters, the number of which is almost comparable to the posters of "Transformers".

Although "Transformers" has been released for 8 days now, the popularity is far less than a few days ago, but the box office of 130 million is not comparable to other movies.

And judging from the trend of still having tens of millions of box office every day, this movie may even hit the 300 million mark.

can get the same promotional position as "Transformers" in the cinema, and it is worthy of being called "the strongest Hong Kong film in history" and "the first Chinese blockbuster in the summer".

That's right, the promotional slogan of the movie "The True Colors of Men" is "the strongest Hong Kong film in history" and "the first Chinese blockbuster in the summer".

It doesn't matter how the film is filmed, the momentum can't be lost.

"It seems that a lot of reporters are coming!" Liu Dong walked into the cinema from the internal passage, and just now I saw reporters coming from all directions outside, it seems that this movie is still quite attractive.

"The summer season is not only a feast for major film companies, but also one of the highest clicks and sales of the year for these entertainment media. Li Manyu said as a matter of course.

"And the cost of 80 million has reached the ceiling for a modern action movie, and the difficulty of making a profit is absolutely hellish, even if Li Lianjie comes to star, the box office is not much higher!"

"What about Cheng Long?"

"If Cheng Long doesn't make it into a comedy, it probably won't be much better!" Li Manyu shook his head.

"Then do you think this movie can pay off?" Liu Dong wondered.

"It's very difficult, the mainland box office can be regarded as 50 million incense, and the copyright in Southeast Asia is not as good as martial arts films, and even the copyright in Europe and the United States cannot be sold at all. ”

This is also the reason why the current domestic film market is dominated by costume martial arts films, and the box office of other types of movies is unlikely to exceed 100 million.

Last year's "Huo Yuanjia" can't be regarded as an action movie, it should be classified as a martial arts film, and "Baby Plan" starring Cheng Long is his forte kung fu comedy, and the box office is also stuck before the 100 million mark, only 97 million.

So why are there still investors willing to pay money to invest in this "The True Colors of Men"?

God knows!

It is estimated that he was fooled, Wu Jing said that the investment in this movie was 60 million, and when Liu Dong joined the group, it became more than 70 million, and later it exceeded 80 million.

Every qualified director is a good orator who can fool investors.

Chen Musheng used adrenaline-stimulating pursuits, shootouts, and explosion storyboards to fool those investors, and the investment slowly rose from 60 million to more than 80 million.

Walking to the door of the theater, Liu Dong straightened the high-end shirt on his body, which I don't know if it was called Gucci or Gucci, and couldn't help complaining, "Can you change it to a T-shirt next time, or you can pick a looser one, you will be strangled to death if you are so tight!"

"I think it's very suitable!" Li Manyu tilted his head and looked up and down and said, "Your current positioning is an action star, this black tight shirt is worn on your body, it looks like your muscles are going to burst the buttons, this is the visual impact!"

"I'm afraid that the quality of this dress is not good, and it will be funny when the buttons really break!" Liu Dong pouted.

"Isn't it more eye-catching if it collapses?" Li Manyu teased.

Yes, it's no wonder that so many female stars in later generations either slipped off their skirts or their buttons fell off, and their zippers were broken!
