Liu Dong's calm reaction made Chen Musheng appreciate it very much.

There are not many actors who are qualified to get the leading role without auditioning for a big production with an investment of hundreds of millions, and they are all treated at the price of the Four Heavenly Kings, and no matter how bad it is, it is an actor like Jin Chengwu who is well-known in the whole of Asia.

Throughout the past 5 years, only Chen Kun has taken over "Mulan", and Donnie Yen has taken over "Jinyiwei" and "Jingwu Fengyun: Chen Zhen".

But those are all special cases, Chen Kun has "Painted Skin" is the first to explode, and "Ip Man" is even more popular all over the world, not only the mainland box office has reached 90 million, but also the whole of Asia and North America has good results.

And the video tape copyright alone allows investors to make a difference, this is a modern action movie!

With that movie, Donnie Yen directly shouted the sky-high price of 20 million salary, which is higher than Andy Lau.

And this is still the black history that was repeatedly mentioned when "Ip Man" was released, and it was repeatedly mentioned that he was defeated by Liu Dong, otherwise industry insiders are sure that this movie can become the first modern action movie with a box office of more than 100 million!

As for Liu Dong, the past 4 movies are all male number two, although the box office results are all excellent, no one can guarantee that he can achieve such results after he plays the leading role.

"You don't have to worry so much, since I asked you to come today, those investors are also in favor of letting you star. Chen Musheng smiled slightly, signaling Liu Dong to rest assured, there would be no traps.

"And we have prepared a salary of 8 million for you, which is the treatment only a real first-line star can have, don't look at Chen Kun's 10 million to take "Mulan", the premium is too much, and now his next movie is estimated to only take this amount. ”

Now Liu Dong was even more puzzled, so he simply didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly, "Director Chen, you still said it directly, why did you find me, Donnie Yen should be more suitable than me!"

"Donnie Yen is now opening his mouth for 20 million, and no matter what the film, he will take the money, and it is too risky to have 3 movies a year this year. Chen Musheng shook his head.

"What about Brother Hua, I heard that Director Chen first contacted him. Liu Dong asked suddenly.

"Birch no ......"

Chen Musheng didn't react until he was halfway through speaking, glanced at Liu Dong in surprise, and said with a wry smile, "I didn't expect you to even know this, so I won't hide it from you." ”

"Hua Zai will take over two blockbusters next year, the schedule is too crowded, Donnie Yen is about the same, and although the others are famous, the box office results are not very good. ”

And the fiasco of "Mulan" has made those investors more and more cautious, and the investment has been reduced again and again, it seems that only you are the most suitable, and several movies in a row have been good at the box office and cheap. ”

Liu Dong thought quietly for a while after listening to it, and then nodded, "Director Chen, I took this movie, but this script!"

"I will revise the script and try to match your image!" Chen Musheng smiled and said.

"Okay, let's make an appointment tomorrow to sign the contract!"

……

The next day, Liu Dong saw Chen Musheng again, and this time Li Manyuan also came.

The details of the contract are similar to the treatment of half of the actors, and the final amount is set at 8 million, the standard value of a first-line star.

After signing the contract, the three of them also relaxed, and Liu Dong asked about the situation of the other actors.

"The more weighty supporting roles have actually been determined, Yinghuang wants Tingfeng to play the second male lead, Huayi's Fan Binbin to play the female lead, Shaolin Temple arranged a lay disciple, and Berner also took two small supporting roles. Chen Musheng said helplessly.

There are too many investors in this film, Shaolin Temple and He Nan TV took the lead, half of the funds were contributed, Yinghuang contributed 20%, and the four major companies of Bernard, Huayi, China Film, and Shangying shared the remaining 30% equally and were responsible for distribution.

If it weren't for the fact that there were too many companies involved, I am afraid it would not be Liu Dong's turn to pick up this bargain.

discussed it with Chen Musheng, and announced the news the next day after signing the contract, which can be regarded as publicity.

After 6 days of screening, the total box office of "Big Soldier and Little General" also successfully exceeded 100 million, reaching 101 million.

The biggest advantage of the Lunar New Year stalls is not how many holidays, the box office on weekdays has not dropped much compared with weekends, and the single-day box office is still stable at about 15 million, and the trend is quite stable.

This is also the advantage of comedy films, even though Cheng Long died in the end, but this film has a lot of jokes throughout the film, which is very suitable for the Chinese New Year.

And "Mulan" was not very popular on this festive day at the end of the year due to excessive sensationalism, and the single-day box office fell to 4 million, with a total box office of 38 million in 6 days of release.

Now that Berner has regretted it, he originally played a good game and let the two movies stimulate each other's box office.

Unexpectedly, the two are not at the same level at all, "Mulan" was ruthlessly crushed, not to mention stimulating the box office, under such a huge gap, the audience who originally planned to watch "Mulan" will hesitate.

The media are still happy to praise Liu Dong while stomping on Zhao Wei and Chen Kun, and it is estimated that they will not turn their guns until the release of "Fengyun 2" and "Thorn Tomb" on December 9.

However, then a reporter broke another shocking news, Liu Dong has taken over the costume blockbuster "New Shaolin Temple" co-produced by 6 major companies, and played the leading role.

"According to the reporter of this newspaper, the blockbuster "New Shaolin Temple" invested by six major companies including Shaolin Temple Group, China Film, Berna, and Huayi has determined the candidate for the leading actor, which is Liu Dong, an upstart in the film industry!"

"Starring in big productions in a row, Liu Dongxing's road is unstoppable!"

According to insiders, Liu Dong's salary has risen to 8 million this time, which has reached the value of a first-line movie star, only two million less than Chen Kun taking over "Mulan". ”

"Liu Dong has officially been promoted to the ranks of first-line stars, and no one can shake the first generation of actors!"

Liu Dong took over the news of the actor of "New Shaolin Temple" once again added a fire to the stable box office of "Big Soldiers", and got a total of 3,300 box office on Thursday and Friday, and then ushered in a slight increase in the two days of the weekend, winning another 37 million, and the total box office reached 171 million in 10 days of release, which is a little higher than the box office of "Painted Skin" in 10 days.

The media hype finally made some people unbearable, especially Donnie Yen's fans, who directly started spraying.

"What kind of thing is Liu Dong, our single brother has a salary of 20 million, and 3 big productions will be released next year!"

"It costs a lot of money to spend money to buy so many media, I don't know if 8 million is enough!"

"What the hell is the first actor of the new generation, and he can only compare with young people, Brother Shan is now a kung fu superstar!"

Liu Dong's fans were not to be outdone, and the two sides launched a scolding war on the Internet.

"Donnie Yen was not beaten down by Liu Dong when he hung himself!"

"Such a weak chicken is embarrassed to call himself a kung fu superstar? Who can Donnie Yen beat in a single way?"

"It's really laughing to death, the kung fu superstar was beaten down in a few moves, I don't know who Donnie Yen can beat in singles!"

"Kung fu superstar, then have the ability to find Liu Dong to fight!"

"Donnie Yen is afraid that he is not going to be beaten out of!"

"I'll tell you a joke, a kung fu superstar who doesn't know kung fu!"
