Chapter 310, dizzy
The so-called another football-themed movie is going to be filmed, it is just pure nonsense, there are only two real football-themed movies in the history of Chinese films, plus two and a half, and there are only four in the wide.
"Kyoto Ball Man" in the late 80s, that is, "Crazy Football", which was later changed by unscrupulous businessmen in the 21st world to cheat money; Director Xie Jin, who is nearly eighty years old, filmed "Women's Football Number" in the 10s; The two thousand and one year of Zhou Xingchi's movie "Shaolin Football" and a later gospel movie "The Tramp World Cup".
In addition, all the movies under the banner of football in Chinese films, including "The Fans" in the 10s, "I Have a Dad Too" in the 10s, "Defense and Counterattack" in the 2000s, etc., cannot be regarded as real football movies.
In the 80s, it was wishful thinking to make money from Chinese-language football movies. Whether it is the remake of "Victory Escape" "Inferior Lineup", or the star-studded "One Goal Fame", or the football shady "Penalty Area", or the female football-themed "Football Girl" and "Football Stunner", these football-themed movies that have a certain market in Europe and the United States cannot be made into Chinese films. And the Chinese-language football-themed movie, the only "Shaolin Football" that is competitive at the box office, is far from having the effect of the future.
When Xu Xiaoming first made ATV's request, he thought of starting to shoot a football-themed TV series, and compared to attracting the attention of fans and more non-fans, the ability of TV dramas is obviously much stronger than that of movies, at least in Hong Kong in this era.
There are two soccer-themed TV series. One is the Hong Kong drama "Kung Fu Football" that borrows from "Shaolin Football", and the other is the mainland drama "Ambition". And what I have to shoot is the new drama "Ambition" after kneading these two dramas together, and the name of "Kung Fu Football" is indeed a bit unatmospheric.
The candidates for actors, after thinking about it for more than half a day, also came up with a specific list, basically all of them are phoenix-oriented actors, but in the selection of the leading actor, Zhang Weijian, the actor of "Kung Fu Football" in his previous life, was chosen. It's not that Zhang Weijian can't handle this role. is more because Zhang Weijian has done many things that are relatively positive, but his recognition of him is much higher than that of ordinary stars. And the play also uses a real international football superstar to replace the role of Mi Lu in the original "Ambition", which can complement Zhang Weijian perfectly.
……
Originally, the wireless "Journey to the West" was a little unsatisfactory because of the rush production, and since the "Journey to the West", which was co-produced by Phoenix and the mainland, was launched on ATV, there have been more criticisms of the wireless version of "Journey to the West" in comparison.
The wireless version of "Journey to the West" was completely pushed into the ditch, and the daily hardship of the actor Zhang Weijian, who was "pushed" by everyone, was much worse than before.
A few days ago, even if someone put the blame on his head. But not everyone is dissatisfied with him, and there are always two people to talk to on the set. But now, those who don't believe in the statement that "Zhang Weijian ruined the wireless "Journey to the West" have also begun to hate him, and there is gossip that it is impossible for him to get any more roles in wireless in his life, not even curry and coffee.
It's not a formal actor anyway. Zhang Weijian simply didn't even go, threw away the identity of the so-called gold medal in the singing competition, and learned from the former actor Liang Jiahui to set up a stall, although it was hard, he had to prepare to roll up and run from time to time. But the mood is much better than on the wireless set.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Weijian, who was tired for a day, had to go to the bar to sing. The income from being a hawker is not enough to support himself, his mother and his younger brother, and he can make a lot of money by going to a bar for hours and singing songs that the audience likes.
Successfully dodging the dice cups thrown by several drunkards on the stage, Zhang Weijian insisted on singing his own round of songs, and went off the stage to the place where the singers were resting and was about to drink saliva, when he was stopped by the foreman of the bar and said: "Jianzai, someone over there is looking for you, you are a big guy and three coarse, you shouldn't be a loan shark and someone who has been called for debts, right?" ”
Zhang Weijian looked in the direction of the foreman's gesture, isn't he just a big man with five big and three thick, and he is also a person he has never seen, and he said in his heart that it is not appropriate for him to sing and offend a certain underworld brother.
Hurriedly pulled the foreman and said, "Brother Luo, don't be joking, how dare I borrow usury." Did that person say that he was looking for me something, is it fierce, or I slipped through the back door, and you said that you couldn't find me. ”
"Don't hurt me." The foreman ducked back and said: "That person is not good at first glance, I just came in from the outside, and I saw him as if he was coming down from a Mercedes-Benz, I guess what kind of big brother-level character, even if you run, you can't run out of Hong Kong, and he has already seen me talking to you, I'll tell him to find you, isn't this going to find death, you can do it yourself." ”
I looked up and looked over there again, and sure enough, the big man was looking this way, Zhang Weijian's heart was about to be cold, what kind of sin did he do, he provoked this kind of person in a good manner.
Just like the foreman said, you can't run away from Hong Kong, let alone have an old lady and younger brother at home, maybe you can run. Sticking out his head is also a knife, and shrinking his head is also a knife, even if he is a gang boss, he can't just hack people to death for no reason.
Zhang Weijian strengthened his courage, dragged his somewhat twisted legs, and almost moved to the card seat where the big man was, and he was sweating on his head. Forced himself to calm down, and said: "This big guy, I am Jianzai, I don't know what you are looking for me?" ”
"Well, I just saw your situation. It is indeed tragic enough for a good singing contest champion to fall to this point. Bao Zhilong is also from a bitter background, but he has not suffered this crime, since he came to Hong Kong to follow Mo Fei, he is even more moisturized to be able to pinch out the oil at any time, seeing Zhang Weijian's situation, he is somewhat sympathetic, and he is not in a hurry to say the purpose of finding Zhang Weijian, but first comforted with emotion.
Hearing the meaning of this, it seems that he is not here to find trouble, Zhang Weijian's beating heart and extremely struggling nerves have also eased a little, but he still doesn't dare to relax too much, maybe the other party is here to absorb the younger brother. pouted and said: "Although this kind of life is hard, it is much better than when I was a child, at least I can make money to support my family, thank you for your understanding, big man, but I am small and frail and really not suitable for the underworld, if ......"
"Who told you you're going to mess with the underworld, do I look like a gang guy?" Bao Zhilong glared at Zhang Weijian, this guy is a bit righteous, but who knows if he didn't force that part, put down the water glass in his hand, and said: "It's not me who wants to see you, but Mr. Mo, you clean up and follow me, this kind of place is not suitable for you." ”
"Mr. Mo, which Mr. Mo is it? Big guy, I'm very timid, I can't do anything that violates the law, including the cowherd and the casino brother, I don't do it, I only do serious things. Zhang Weijian doesn't look like a righteous person no matter how he looks at Bao Zhilong, and once again emphasizes his own concepts and ethics.
Bao Zhilong was amused by Zhang Weijian, this guy was really interesting, and asked rhetorically: "With your body, I don't need you to say that I know that you can't mix with the underworld, and if I were the eldest brother of the club, I wouldn't look for a little brother like you." Let me ask you, are you a singer or an actor, which Mr. Mo will find you, and how many Mr. Mo in Hong Kong will give you a chance? ”
"Big, big, big......, big guy, are you talking about the phoenix-like Mr. Mo?" Zhang Weijian is not stupid at all, Bao Zhilong's words made him understand immediately, he was about to be corona by happiness, less than half a month ago he was still envious of those who signed up to Phoenix and Famous Craftsman Music, I didn't expect his good luck to come so soon, God really has eyes, dizzy, stammered: "No, I don't know what Mr. Mo, what are you looking for me to do, do you want to release a record or act?" ”
Bao Zhilong stared at Zhang Weijian and said, "I'm just Mr. Mo's bodyguard, you ask me, who do I ask, Mr. Mo?" What do you want to know, you will understand when you see Mr. Mo, I won't ask you to help him repair the circuit. Go and say hello to the steward of the bar, don't let Mr. Mo wait outside for a long time, he's very busy. ”
Could it be that he is indeed very busy, after the premiere of the Chinese New Year film "Love Actually", he has to rush to Los Angeles to attend the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, and he has to host the second stage of the casting audition in the United States, and he has only been in Hong Kong for a few days, and there are still a lot of things to deal with for him. Another point is more important, that is, before going to Los Angeles, I have to appease several women, so in the past few days, I haven't even failed to make a nightly trip.
Of course, Zhang Weijian didn't think of what Mo Fei was going to be busy with, and after asking the director of the bar for leave, he followed Bao Zhilong out, and didn't forget to ask Bao Zhilong on the way, saying: "Big man, I still don't understand something, I'm a wireless actor, and the singer contract is also signed in Huaxing, Mr. Mo has never cooperated with wireless artists, this time ......"
Generally speaking, a small person will be more clever, and Zhang Weijian's appearance doesn't look like an idiot, but Bao Zhilong felt that this guy was really not ordinary stupid, interrupted him, and asked, "Then have you signed a long-term contract with wireless?" ”
"No, people like me have no future in wireless at all, it's my turn to act in a drama that no one else wants, or the kind of protagonist who can't show his face, how can he sign a long contract, and now he can't even make curry and coffee." Zhang Weijian's mind was full of questions about what he wanted to do at this time, and he couldn't think of too many things at all.
Bao Zhilong was convinced of this guy, the degree of brain aura and his body shape did not match at all, he shook his head and said: "Isn't that the end, since you haven't signed a contract with wireless, then what else is there to worry about, even a layman knows that this is no problem, how can you say that you are also an insider, don't you even understand this?" Even if you don't understand this, you should have heard that Liang Chaowei and Andy Lau were originally wireless people, but now they are becoming phoenixes, right? (To be continued.)
