Chapter 305: Audition for "Wuji"
The reason why Zhang Weiping was frightened was another movie "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", this movie had already been released before, and it had achieved a fairly good box office in our country, at least it was not so ugly.
Of course, if you want to compare it with the investment in "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", this box office is simply a loss to grandma's family.
But however, the Wang brothers did not pay compensation, because the box office distribution of this movie is very interesting, the Wang brothers take the majority of the domestic market, while the Columbia company takes the majority of the overseas distribution, and the result is ......
Columbia company cried!
The overseas box office was originally hoping that the North American box office would give a surprise, but the result was only surprise, not joy.
This box office is almost negligible, to such an extent, as far as Zhang Weiping heard, Columbia originally built a piece of land in Pengcheng, and now it has built a two-story small building, and it seems that in the future, it will be a big deal to build a big company, or even a big project in a studio or something, but now, ......
The land was sold, the house was not built, and they went to an office building and rented a piece of space to deal with it...... Columbia, it's really a big company at this time!
How can Zhang Weiping not be surprised?
The key is that this is completely consistent with what Luo Yaoxiang said.
It was foolish anyway, so this Weiping didn't have to serve Luo Yaoxiang with good wine and food?
This copyright issue has been discussed, and ah, this Zhang Weiping also told Luo Yaoxiang......
"Lao Mouzi is also a stubborn donkey, brother, don't take it to heart, I didn't talk about him much about that guy, how can I turn on the machine without waiting? Brother, brother, I can't stand you...... Brother, we'll have to do great things together in the future, right? Brother......"
This is...... Drunk too much?
No. Although Luo Yaoxiang was just smiling and chattering, he could definitely hear the meaning of Zhang Weiping's words.
It's just selling to yourself, it's that simple, and there is a meaning highlighted in it, that is, although you Luo Yaoxiang has cooperated with Brother Chen Kai. But it doesn't matter, we're still good brothers......
Zhang Weiping didn't seem to say anything about Brother Chen Kai, right?
It's true that I didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning of this is actually the existence of Brother Chen Kai.
Actually, this is normal, after all, Luo Yaoxiang is also a big star, so he was invited by Brother Chen Kai this time to star in "Wuji", and this matter has already been reported. Can he Zhang Weiping know?
Therefore, this meal has the meaning of wooing.
However, Luo Yaoxiang listened to something else, that is, Zhang Weiping and Lao Mouzi seem to be a little incompatible!
Zhang Weiping and Lao Mouzi, this pair of enemies is really interesting, on the one hand, these two were once close comrades-in-arms. That's as good as it can be, and even the two of them wear couple outfits...... All right. That's actually a leather jacket, a leather jacket.
On the other hand, how did Luo Yaoxiang not know, when the two of them separated later, this was really called a tearing face!
At that time, the two broke up, but they made a lot of news. even went to court, because it involved money!
Money, this thing is interesting, just look at Zhang Weiping and Lao Mouzi, it can be said that it is ...... The root of all evil.
And now...... Ay?
Luo Yaoxiang couldn't help but think. Could it be that because of his appearance, these two people had an emotional crisis a day earlier? …… This word is used, Luo Yaoxiang found that his knowledge level has increased dramatically now, and he is very good at using words.
But for now, forget it, anyway, the big head has already got it, so there is no need to meddle in the matter of this pair of good friends.
Besides, when Luo Yaoxiang comes back this time, there are other things that are more important......
The dressing room of the Beijing Film Studio was busy at this time, and Luo Yaoxiang was sitting on a chair, serving as a makeup artist.
This is not only makeup, but the most important thing is actually clothing, Luo Yaoxiang has to be draped at this time!
The bright red base was dotted with peonies and many other patterns of flowers that could not be named, and then there were two small ones on both shoulders, which were completely flower bones, plus the golden helmet, this armor, this ......
That's right, flower armor!
Obviously, Luo Yaoxiang's role in this super bad movie "Wuji" is this bright general, and it is still beyond his imagination to say that this matter is still beyond his imagination, because Luo Yaoxiang felt that he should be the male protagonist at first, Kunlun.
But it's a pity that this actor is still Zhang Dongjian, this big-eyed Oba, this thing is indeed a bit unexpected.
Actually, it was mainly the Xu Feng who promised at the beginning, Luo Yaoxiang just agreed to audition, and he didn't know what role it was, and when it came to this time, Brother Chen Kai was very satisfied with Zhang Dongjian.
To be honest, Luo Yaoxiang felt that from the perspective of acting skills, Zhang Dongjian was still fine, but it was a Korean Oba, that guy's Mandarin...... Is that called Mandarin?
After all, Luo Yaoxiang has watched this movie, and he has also seen a lot of complaints from fans, many of which focus on the issue of this accent.
It is undeniable that Zhang Dongjian Oba is working very hard, he is really working hard to learn Mandarin, but unfortunately, it is still very bad, the key is that it is not possible to hold Buddha's feet temporarily.
So, this problem existed before and is ...... now Ay~
But fortunately, I now have the opportunity to play this bright general...... In other words, fans and many film critics, the most complained about is that it doesn't matter if a character's Mandarin is not good, but you have to make two, and the interaction between these two characters is still very much, and the first half is basically the two of them playing against each other, and the result is ......
Nima! Don't talk about watching the plot of this movie, if you don't have subtitles, you can understand what these two are talking about?
Obviously, the movie "Wu Ji" had a lot of fans who said they couldn't understand it at the beginning, which had a lot to do with this matter, but now it ......
Luo Yaoxiang has a chance to play? Opportunity?
There's no way, Luo Yaoxiang hasn't taken down this role yet, he still has to compete. And the opponent is that Hiroyuki Sanada!
So what about it...... It seems that Brother Chen Kai doesn't pay special attention to Luo Yaoxiang?
Luo Yaoxiang's current mood ...... What's the matter, is Lao Tzu still afraid of this competition?! Isn't it just a little Japan?
Well, Luo Yaoxiang also admitted that Hiroyuki Sanada's opponent is indeed not ordinary, and he can be said to be the hottest big star in Japan at present. He just collaborated with Tom on "The Last Samurai", which is a real Hollywood blockbuster, and in it, Sanada's performance is also very good, as for the earlier "Midnight Bell", it is a whirlwind of horror films in the United States.
Many Americans feel that since this "Midnight Bell", American horror movies have been inferior to Japanese horror films......
It has to be said that this opponent is very strong. So......
We won't back down!
Luo Yaoxiang closed his eyes slightly at this time, he was brewing emotions, he wanted to grasp the essence of the role of General Guangming!
These two individuals compete for roles, so what does Brother Chen Kai think?
"Brother Kai, isn't it a bit too much for you to let that Luo Yaoxiang compete with Sanada Hiroyuki? That Luo Yaoxiang is young and vigorous, maybe something will happen. ”
"You still don't understand this. I'm here to be an inspire, to bring out the inner potential of the actors! ”
A corner of the studio. It seems to be a place in a secret room, Chen Kaige is chatting with his wife Chen Hong, and they are naturally talking about this audition.
This one...... Not to mention anything else, Brother Chen Kai is a very good guy, Ms. Chen Hong's appearance is definitely against the sky, I don't know how many people I was fascinated back then. As a result, they married a big director, although there is a gap in age between the two, but the relationship between the couple is still very good.
usually talks about movies and engages in art, but Chen Hong is married after all. So there are fewer actors coming out, and she is basically helping Chen Kaige deal with commercial things now and becoming a producer.
But however, the current drama is particularly important to Chen Kaige, it can be said that this drama is a movie in which Chen Kaige has poured great enthusiasm into it, and it can even be said that he has gambled on his artistic life!
So, Chen Hong played a role in this movie, but why is it so important?
The reason is also very simple, many of Chen Kaige's previous works are basically Waterloo-level failures!
started from "Jin Ke's Assassination of the King of Qin", and along the way, he even filmed "Butterfly Dance in the World", which is simply a strange thing in a strange scene...... Well, in fact, when "Jin Ke Assassinated King Qin" came out, he was still scolded so miserably, but if you want to compare it with this "Butterfly Dance in the World", it is simply a work of conscience.
It's just this drama, it's not a movie but a TV series, and there are a lot of big names in the play, Huang Sanshi knows, right? Nortel's youngest teacher, everyone can teach others to act, the result is ...... In this play, he contributed the most murderous Matt style in his life, not to mention the hair, it is definitely the imitation object of washing, cutting and blowing, and on the nose, a big ring is worn......
This offends the stylist, right? Treat the handsome guy Huang Sanshi as a cow?
Huang Sanshi at this time, it was definitely a handsome mess, but this shape ...... Hey, this drama is still an adaptation of the story of the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu and Diao Chan, in fact, I wanted to call it this name from the beginning......
Not to mention how bad this scene is, even the leaders of CCTV have been scratched off, and then, it is really a bit desperate, Chen Kaige also promised foreign filmmakers to shoot "Kill Me Gently...... Large-scale, large-scale.
The past is unbearable, so in this movie, Chen Kaige made up his mind that he must shoot it well, shoot it well, and then make a lot of money at the box office and regain his strength.
And now, this audition ...... It should be said that he has to think carefully about every role.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, the makeup of the two generals over there is OK."
Someone outside came to deliver the news, so they ......
"Good! Let's check it out! ”
As soon as he pulled his daughter-in-law's hand, Brother Chen Kai was ready to confirm his Bright General......
