Chapter 15 Double Fat Goes into Battle
The two heavyweight actors really arrived at the crew of "Happy Ghost" the next day.
This made all the staff in the crew admire Meng Chao even more, not to mention that the producer is talented, and even his connections are so broad, it seems that if you mix with him, he is still very promising.
The roles of the two are not too important, but they provide a lot of jokes in the movie, especially the fat uncle played by Zheng Zeshi likes to watch PLAYBOY, and has always been disgusted by his wife, and then he often bumped into Zhu Xiucai's soul, and he was so frightened that he lost his soul, but his wife and fat sister couldn't see ghosts, so he kept scolding him for watching too much PLAYBOY......
Originally, the lines of the two were not too much, and they came and went with example sentences such as "No, my wife really has a ghost" and "I told you not to watch so many PLAYBOYs, my brain is broken".
But after finding two senior comedians, Meng Chao and Huang Baiming both added fuel and vinegar again, and together with the fat sister Shen Dianxia and KENT brother Zheng Zeshi, they thought of a lot of funny lines on the spot and added them to the characters, making the whole movie more joyful.
For example, the fat uncle will say, "Wife, I really see the hell, that ghost is wearing a clear suit, and the PLAYBOY is all undressed, how could I be mistaken?" ”
And the fat sister responded to him: "I say you see ghosts every day, why can't I see them?" Are you lucky enough to not see you win a single ticket? ”
And so on, there is also the mutual teasing between husband and wife, so that the men and women who enter the movie when the movie is released will feel extremely familiar and funny when they see it.
In addition, the double fat couple in the original version of "Happy Ghost" are just a pair of ordinary actors, but now Meng Chao's version is two senior comedians, so in addition to the lines, the eyes and movements of the two are also a highlight, which raises the highlight of this character to a higher level.
"Thank you, Sister Fat, thank you for taking the time to help, this is a little meaning!"
still has a set of scenes on her back, and the fat sister scenes of the three variety shows have already ended in half a day, which is considered to be completed, so Meng Chao was sent to the school where the crew was located, and presented a red envelope of 10,000 yuan.
At this time, it was 1985, and the per capita income of Huaxia was less than 2,000 yuan, but in the entertainment industry, although this amount is nothing, as a supporting role for a half-day cameo, it is considered to be overgiven, of course, in terms of the fame of the fat sister, she can afford this money.
"Meng Chao, you are a newcomer that Sister Fei is particularly optimistic about, Sister Fei knows that your funds for filming are limited, you keep this money first, and after your movie is released, we will have a chance to partner, and you will give it to me then!"
Meng Chao's tears almost fell when he heard this, who said that the entertainment industry was cold? It's just that this intimate sister is a very respected figure in the minds of countless celebrities, and the reason is naturally her righteousness and chivalry!
Meng Chao is actually not short of 10,000 yuan, recently he broadcast his filming process live in Yaya, many fans snored Niu Fork and offered rewards, and Meng Chao is also the first cow to live broadcast movies on Yaya, the largest platform in the country, so Meng Chao's filming funds are actually enough!
But Meng Chao still accepted the 10,000 yuan, and said solemnly: "Sister Fat, thank you, I have taken your words to heart, no matter whether I make or lose this play, I will start filming another comedy next, and please be the protagonist, don't think I'm famous at that time!" "Don't be too tired, you still have a long way to go, the most important thing is to have a good mentality, a good mentality can go further!"
This can be regarded as the experience of the predecessors who have been up and down for decades, so Meng Chao really remembered it in his heart, and he also knew how to adjust his mentality in order to do the next thing.
"Sister Fat, I understand, I'll send you."
……
Sister Fei's 10,000 yuan moved Meng Chao for a long time, and it is not without stars who do not charge money for filming, but he asked himself that he did not have such a deep friendship with Sister Fei, and she was able to do this, and she definitely took care of Meng Chao from the bottom of her heart.
The so-called promise of the next drama, it is estimated that Sister Fat did not take it too seriously, not to look down on Meng Chao, but in the film market this year, after filming a film, she hit the street, and there are too many newcomers and investors in the entertainment industry who dare not touch movies again!
After the fat sister left, the focus of the work was on filming the role of the fat uncle, because Zheng Zeshi had relatively many scenes in the movie, and there were a few fainting scenes after the hell, Zheng Zeshi had high requirements for himself, hoping to make each scene a different expression and effect, so the shooting was not finished for a whole day.
During the break, Zheng Zeshi chatted with Meng Chao: "Meng Chao, in fact, I only took on a play two days ago, but after I arrived at Huaxia Film and Television City, I learned that there was a problem with the capital chain of the investor of this TV series, so the filming was delayed, and I originally planned to go back to Xiangjiang after a few days without a response, but I didn't expect you to find me at this time......"
Meng Chao said: "That's really a coincidence, Brother Kent This is the fate of the two of us, it is destined that the first movie of the brothers needs your participation to be completed!" ”
Zheng Zeshi laughed heartily: "You kid is getting better and better at talking after becoming the boss, do you think about how to release this movie after it is filmed?" ”
Meng Chao did think about this question, and now the largest private cinema companies in China are Shaw Brothers Cinemas and Golden Harvest Cinemas, but these two major cinema companies are also one of the two largest film companies in China.
Therefore, I can only find a way from the state-owned cinema units of the Great Wall, Shuangbei and Anle, but Meng Chao has been in Yanjing for so many years, and he deeply understands a truth, that is, as long as the affairs of government units can be solved, as long as someone can be found!
And the best way to find someone is to pave the way with money, so he didn't worry too much about the problem of theatrical release, as long as he didn't rush to release it in the Lunar New Year, how could he find a way to release it, at most it was just to spend a little more money.
However, since Zheng Zeshi asked, Meng Chao naturally realized that he should have something to say, so he said: "I think it is better to start with the government's state-run cinemas, and during this time, I am also taking the time to find someone to help build the way." ”
At this time, Zheng Zeshi said: "I have been filming in Yanjing for two years, and I know more or less the operation, people still know a little, you might as well find Director Jia who is in charge of Shuangbei Cinema Line in several northern cities and the Cultural Bureau, try it, although he hates it, but at least it is quite fair, as long as the effect is good after the test screening of the cinema under the Shuangbei Cinema Line, even if it is a national screening, of course, the benefits are ...... you know."
