Chapter 207 Wudangmen shoot Shaolin
The heroine of "Shaolin Football" has been undecided for a long time, which has made many female stars ready to move.
Yang Xin'er has already decided not to appear in this film, for other female stars, this is the opportunity of Chitiao. And Xinle Film and Television is now except for the female stars that Yang Xin'er has not yet mastered, at least no one among its contracted actresses can afford the heroine of this film, otherwise the heroine of the film is the same as the male protagonist, I am afraid that it has already been decided.
The company's contracted artists have a little less freedom and more exploitation than those independent artists, but they have a great advantage in terms of resources and resources.
Which is better or worse varies from person to person.
For the heroine, Zhang Le did not panic. For the role in the film, the easiest actor to choose is the heroine.
However, news soon came out that Liu Mi, a popular little flower of Xingsheng Entertainment, jumped into the nest of Xinle Film and Television, entered the big screen, and starred in Zhang Le's new film "Shaolin Football" The heroine Amei.
Liu Mi starred in several TV series in a row, and the ratings were hot, and people became popular immediately, but now they are all in the TV drama circle. Xingsheng Entertainment didn't know for what purpose, and some suppressed her to prevent her from going to the big screen. This also gave Xinle Film and Television a chance.
The person was dug by Lu Wen, and he also became an artist under Lu Wen. Lu Wen, as Yang Xin'er's agent, is now a senior executive of Xinle Film and Television, so she is naturally happy to give her a face. What's more, Liu Mi is also suitable for the role of Amei.
With her current popularity, it will also bring a lot of box office to the film. Of course, the most important thing is to rely on its own fame, so as not to be reduced to soy sauce.
Of course, Zhang Le agreed to let Liu Mi play the heroine of the film, and naturally he also considered it from the company's point of view.
If the company wants to develop, it is natural that major stars will join indispensable.
Zhang Le's new film has attracted the attention of major media, and if it is a low-key start, it will definitely be harassed by the media during filming. Zhang Le's current movie. There is no need to rely on the launch press conference to promote the momentum, but many actors in the film need to rely on this to increase exposure.
Zhang Le is undoubtedly a prolific film director, having directed four films in just a few years, and even more screenwriters. And he is also a high-quality director, although each film is more or less controversial, almost every film is a box office double success.
As soon as "Mr. and Mrs. Zhang" was released, there was news of Zhang Le's new film. Now the residual heat of "Mr. and Mrs. Zhang" has not completely dissipated, but Zhang Le's new film "Shaolin Football" has been launched.
This speed undoubtedly killed countless directors in seconds, and of course made countless directors envious. It's not that many directors don't want to be fast, but they can't be fast at all. Attracting investment and sponsorship is extremely time-consuming and laborious. But Zhang Le, but he doesn't need to worry about this.
At the start-up press conference, Zhang Le sat in the middle, Feng Lei on the left, Liu Mi on the right, next to Feng Lei was his father Feng Yuan, and next to Liu Mi was Liu Zheng.
Liu Mi and Liu Zheng have the same surname, but they have no half-dime relationship. The reason why I sit like this is just based on the role in the film. And several other people are like Huang Yiming. Xie Xiaocong, Mo Ling and others also attended. However, these people, even Mo Ling, the Olympic champion, are not of interest to the media at all.
Naturally, the media is most interested in Zhang Le.
"May I ask Director Zhang. Your new film is called "Shaolin Football", is it related to Shaolin Kung Fu? A reporter asked.
Zhang Le's new film was dressed in a boil, but at this moment they knew what Zhang Lexin's title was.
"Yes, it's a fusion comedy. Movies with elements such as kung fu and sports. The film is indeed related to Shaolin Kung Fu. Zhang Le nodded, and then said.
"Director Zhang is a descendant of Wudang, why don't you shoot "Wudang Football". But what about filming "Shaolin Football"? The reporter then asked. His expression seemed to be very satisfied with the role he had played in paving the way for this question today.
When Zhang Le heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted, smiled and said: "What kind of movie you make has nothing to do with what kind of kung fu you learn." What's more, is it because I am the successor of the Wudang Golden Cicada School that I can't shoot the kung fu of other schools in my movie? ”
Zhang Le's rhetorical question undoubtedly made the reporter who asked the question just now speechless, and also made everyone think that the reporter was purely reasonable. If you reason according to what he said, wouldn't the Chinese people be able to shoot films with foreigners.
However, why is it "Shaolin Football" instead of "Wudang Football", many of which are as famous as Shaolin Temple in the international arena than Wudang. And in Wudang Kung Fu, there doesn't seem to be any strong King Kong legs, do you use cotton palms and Tai Chi to kick the ball?
Of course, the heroine in it is good at tai chi and uses tai chi to turn things around. I don't know if the audience will think that Zhang Le is doing this on purpose after watching this plot, and the reason is that he is a descendant of Wudang.
You Shaolin Kung Fu in the cow. Forced, in the end, I have to rely on my Wudang Taijiquan to turn things around.
Zhang Le naturally didn't have this idea, almost all the scripts were based on the original version, and even many of the actors in it were selected based on the original actors.
Zhang Le is not blindly copying and plagiarizing, but the original version is too classic and will inevitably be affected. When it comes to classic films, you need to be cautious about making any changes.
As for the fact that after the film comes out, others will speculate like this, so it doesn't matter what happens to Zhang Le.
"Mr. Feng Yuan, the first time you cooperated with Director Zhang, you served as the villain in the film, which is very different from what you have always used to appear in positive phenomena in the past, is it because your son-in-law Feng Lei is the hero of this film?" A reporter looked at Feng Yuan and then asked.
Feng Yuan is undoubtedly an unmatched big name in the cast of this film. Whether it is the popular Feng Lei or the extremely popular Liu Mi, they can't be compared with him. is from the perspective of salary, although he is a supporting role, he has the highest salary.
Feng Yuan is not only a household name actor, but also a director, producer, and executive director of a film and television company.
"This is not the first time that Director Zhang and I have worked together. The film "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" is our first time working together. If you count the theme song of "Big Hero Zheng Chenggong", this is the third time we have cooperated. Feng Yuan smiled and said, "As for why you took over the role of the villain of this film, the main thing is that I like that role." What's more, I am an actor and have the opportunity to try different roles, so naturally I will not refuse. This has nothing to do with the fact that the protagonist of this film is my boy. What's more, Director Zhang's movies I think as any actor has a fatal temptation. ”
Feng Yuan's words were very official, but he couldn't find any flaws. This kind of old fritter is naturally not loved by media reporters. So, everyone shifted their attention to Feng Lei.
"Mr. Feng Lei, you have become the leading actor of Director Zhang's film again, many people say that you got this role because of your relationship with Director Zhang, do you have anything to say about this?"
"Why did I get this role?" Feng Lei smiled and said, "He is the director, you should ask him!" Who plays the leading role in his films, the initiative is on him. ”
"If he is not suitable for this film, let alone my friend, even my own son and brother will not be able to take his turn. Of course, if there is any actor under the same conditions as him, I will choose him. No way, he is a contracted artist of Xinle Film and Television, and the company also has a cut of his salary! Zhang Le smiled and said.
Zhang Le's analogy originally wanted to say that he was his own son, but he suddenly thought that Feng Yuan was next to him, and quickly changed it. However, everyone is smart, and Zhang Le can hear what he wants to say to a fool, but no one will catch this. (To be continued......)
