When Zhou Chunwang was ready to start this project, he began to want everyone to play the leading role, and his eyes were of course focused on mainland actors at the beginning. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info it seems that none of them feel competent (so this is one of the reasons why Xu Earn is a very scarce genre film actor in China, because there are few good actors in China).

The actors with martial arts skills in the mainland include Wu Jing and Zhao Wenzhuo, but they are not handsome enough, and they are too far from the movie image in Zhou Chunwang's mind; Chen Kun is good, handsome enough and hard enough, I believe that if he is chosen, he will be willing to spend two or three months to exercise and learn martial arts, but his handsomeness is not suitable for the scholarly side; Li Lianjie is even more inappropriate, first throw away the aspect of whether to invite or not, it is not good in terms of image alone, he is also more elegant, and it is too inconsistent for him to play the role of a male god.

So after the mainland actors couldn't do it, he had to set his sights on Xiangjiang. Yes, although the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang has gradually declined since its return, there are still many good actors. Zhou Chunwang can casually list several candidates under consideration, including Zhang Zhen, Nicholas Tse, Zheng Yijian, Guo Fucheng, Zhang Ban and so on.

He didn't think about Andy Lau, but the actor he finally identified had some relationship with Andy Lau.

But this is also nonsense, how old is the Xiangjiang entertainment industry, Andy Lau has been an old artist for decades, and he knows most of them.

It's just that this one is still a little special, because many people say that he is very similar to Andy Lau when he was young; Andy Lau also helped him (also nonsense, Andy Lau has helped too many people), when he was still a newcomer, Andy Lau asked him to go to his own concert, and also asked him to join one of his MVs to play Andy Lau when he was young.

When Zhou Chunwang said the name of that person, Andy Lau didn't say anything more. It's not that this actor is much better than him, but it's a question of suitability. The other party is indeed more suitable for this role than himself. And Zhou Chunwang also said that the actor had better have martial arts skills, and this actor, like Wang Baoqiang, also became interested in martial arts after watching "Shaolin Temple", and then practiced martial arts since childhood. When he was 11 years old, he worshipped a master, and when he was 21 years old, he ranked fifth in the Changquan group and sixth in the Taijiquan group of the Capital International Wushu Competition.

So in all respects, he is indeed more suitable for this role than Andy Lau. And even if the actor agrees to appear in this movie, Zhou Chunwang will ask the other party to go to the gym for another two or three months, in addition to practicing martial arts, he must also shape his body more perfectly.

In the end, Andy Lau was convinced, and he realized that Zhou Chunwang had indeed calculated the entire movie and the entire plan, and now the difference is just the funds. And this is what he lacks the most, so although Zhou Chunwang rejected his conditions, he still decided to invest 10 million yuan in "Uncle".

It's not that Andy Lau is hot-headed or what, but he is often hot-headed - in fact, the "Asian Rising Star Director" is just a part of his investment in movies, in fact, he has been investing in movies for a long time, and he has lost tens of millions.

And this is not the first time to invest in Zhou Chunwang, and it certainly will not be the last. For example, he did the same when he invested in "Sister Peach", "Sister Peach" is a literary film, but it turned out to be a total investment of 30 million, of course, it scared away all investors, who would be so stupid to invest in this movie? As a result, Andy Lau saw it, and he thought the script was good, so he invested 10 million, and said that he would help pull the rest of the funds.

Of course, later he also starred in this work, and some people say that the main condition for him to invest in the movie "Sister Peach" is for him to star in this work, but it is not. If it's really not suitable, he doesn't insist on it.

And this time it was like this, although he failed to be the leading actor, but because Zhou Chunwang explained to him in detail many of his arrangements and plans for this movie, he also had confidence in this movie, so he decided to invest 10 million yuan, and at the same time helped Zhou Chunwang recommend this project to other powerful investors.

Of course, Zhou Chunwang is very grateful to him, after all, he is the first one willing to invest in this movie, and he is also the famous Andy Lau.

Moreover, Andy Lau brought more than 10 million funds, because his joining will bring a series of chain reactions.

However, although Andy Lau wants to invest in this movie, the two chatted for three days before it was officially finalized, and he will also serve as the producer of the film, mainly responsible for investment and sponsorship, and basically will not interfere in the work of the work. Because he lost tens of millions of dollars after investing in several movies in a row, he learned a lesson, that is, since he believes in his opponent and invests in him, don't meddle in the works of directors and creators.

So three days later, Zhou Chunwang updated a blog post with the title "Me and My Idol Andy Lau", and then the article only had a photo and a sentence, of course, the photo was a group photo standing with Andy Lau, and the sentence read: Will I tell you that Andy Lau invested in my movie?

Needless to say, the comments exploded, and Xinlang also recommended this blog post with only one photo and one sentence. All of a sudden, the direction of the wind has changed, and many people who said that Zhou Chunwang's movies would hit the streets began to change their tunes; Even if some of them haven't changed their tunes, they are starting to look forward to this movie. After all, Zhou Chunwang's previous project scared away many people, but now he is taken by Liu Tianwang, which will naturally arouse the curiosity of others.

", it's really Andy Lau, when did Zhou Chunwang meet Brother Hua?"

"Wang Baoqiang is an artist under Zhou Chunwang, and Andy Lau met Wang Baoqiang when he was filming "No Thieves in the World", so it is strange that they will know each other?"

"Could Andy play the leading role? That's really something to look forward to. ”

"Forget it, it's not like Andy Lau hasn't acted in bad movies."

"Hehe, no matter who joins, I think that Chinese make secret agent films unreliable, anyway, I won't watch it, at most I will watch pirated copies." And just wanted to see how rotten it was. ”

"The character upstairs is really good, I won't scold you anyway, I'll look downstairs."

"I don't want to scold either, I'm a reader, look downstairs."

"I suspect that they are hype, at first Zhou Chunwang pretended that no one invested, but now he suddenly said that Andy Lau invested in him, because he wanted to create news to attract attention, right?"

", you're in a crooked formation upstairs!"

……

Zhou Chunwang asked for a group photo and prepared to post it on the blog, of course, he asked Andy Lau's opinion. Andy Lau, of course, agreed.

The movie really needs to be promoted, after all, this is Andy Lau's own project now, of course, the more people know about it, the better. I didn't see Chen Kaige's "Wuji", the script has not been adapted and it is known to the world, no matter whether this movie is good or bad in the future, the box office a few days ago must be very high, because the marketing work in the early stage is too successful.
