After "Smiling Proud Jianghu", is the most glorious era of martial arts the end?

This question cannot be answered for the time being, but Tan-style martial arts is really coming to an end from the stage, and Zhang Tan's mind is no longer on writing martial arts novels.

He is actively preparing for the crew of "Crazy Stone".

After Chongqing contacted the filming location, Zhang Tan began to meet with the actors. This world is paradoxical, Zhang Tan can only find actors with suitable conditions by himself, because of the excellent performances of the actors in the original work, which has a deep-rooted impression on Zhang Tan's choice of actors.

The actors selected are also as close to the original actor type as possible.

Of course, unlike Ning Hao in his previous life, who had no way to find famous actors and could only pull some actors who were less famous or not famous at all, as long as Zhang Tan didn't find some first-line, big-name stars to act, second-tier stars and below, basically he waved his hand, and these actors would come over.

There is no way, the shadow of the famous tree of people.

What movie is he making now, this movie is basically a success.

Don't look at what Feng Dacang said some time ago that Zhang Tan can't do it, and he must fight when he makes comedies, people who are really knowledgeable in the industry know that "Crazy Stone" is definitely a big hit, even if it is filmed as a piece of. Otherwise, Huayi Brothers and other film and television companies would not have taken the initiative to come to the door to cooperate.

is definitely going to be a blockbuster movie, which second-tier actor can resist the temptation, even if the salary is reduced, he has to act.

So Zhang Tan's casting work went very smoothly.

The actors' meetings are arranged in Beiya.

The first thing to meet is Bao Shihong's actor Guo Shuishou, who is the actor of the movie.

"Crazy Stone" is about a handicraft factory in Chongqing that has no expenses for eight months, and the developer Feng Dong and assistant manager Qin have been trying to buy the land of the factory. In order to alleviate the embarrassment of the factory's inability to pay wages, Director Xie withstood the pressure of Feng Dong and Assistant Qin and decided to hold a jade exhibition.

As soon as the news came out. All parties are moving.

The factory is headed by Bao Shihong, the security supervisor, supplemented by the younger brother Sanbao, in order to prevent the loss of jadeite, and strictly prevent death.

A group of criminal gangs that are running around committing crimes, led by Brother Dao, with black skins and small armies under their command. Started the mind of jadeite and began to plan stealing.

And Feng Dong saw that the factory was going to work again, so he sent Manager Qin to hire the international thief Mike to steal the jade and cut off the factory's livelihood.

Xie Xiaomeng, the son of Director Xie, did not learn and did not know how to cheat his father out of money repeatedly, he met Zhang Daoge's girlfriend and decided to hook up at the cost of jade.

Around this piece of jadeite. Several forces have come together, giving rise to all kinds of amazing stories.

The most outstanding characters in the movies in the previous life are undoubtedly Bao Shihong, Brother Dao and Heipi, especially Heipi, who became popular with Huang Bo in one fell swoop. It is not only the black skin of the character that makes Huang Bo, but also the ugly appearance and style of Huang Bo's natural migrant workers. It's difficult to find an actor comparable to Huang Bo.

But just look for it with your heart. There are so many people in China, I'm afraid I can't find another Huang Bo.

Guo Shuishou is an actor of the National Repertory Theatre. graduated from Chinese opera and starred in several movies, but his fame was not loud and he did not make any splashes. After meeting Zhang Tan, he immediately decided to accept the movie invitation of "Crazy Stone". Of course, the choice goes both ways. Zhang Tan also wanted to audition for Guo Shuishou's acting skills.

After the two impromptu episodes, Zhang Tan affirmed Guo Shuishou's acting skills.

can gain a foothold in the National Repertory Theatre, Guo Shuishou's acting skills have nothing to say.

"Brother Guo, welcome to the crew of "Crazy Stone", this is the script. You get familiar with it as soon as possible, we open it in mid-April, and it's going to be turned on. After signing the contract, Zhang Tan smiled and handed the script to Guo Shuishou.

Guo Shuishou couldn't suppress his excitement and said: "Okay Director Zhang, I will definitely figure out the role with my heart." ”

signed Guo Shuishou, Zhang Tan auditioned for Brother Dao's actor Liu Muhua, this actor was recommended by Huayi Brothers, and has starred in several TV series produced by Huayi Brothers, and also graduated from Chinese opera. is crawling in the film and television industry, although there is no masterpiece, but his acting skills are perfect.

After the audition, the contract was successfully signed with the crew.

Next, Zhang Tan auditioned a number of distinctive second- and third-tier actors, including Sanbao's actor Liu Gang, Xiaojun's actor Yue Jianguo, four-eyed actor Wang Songshu, and Xie Xiaomeng's actor Peng Bo.

There are still black-skinned actors left who have not been found.

As for the three roles of Feng Dong, Mike, and Bao Shihong's wife, Zhang Tan is ready to find famous actors from Hong Kong, Taiwan or the mainland to enhance the gold content of the cast. Although the film is covered by Zhang Tan alone, it can basically be said that he does not worry about scheduling films, but after all, he still has to face ordinary audiences.

has a good appearance, and the poster hanging in the cinema is also brighter.

There are some supporting roles left, just pull the team of "Never Expected" over to play tricks.

Zhang Tan also plans to find some friends to come over and make cameos.

"Sasha, you play this, the woman in the car, I'll play this, the man in the car." Zhang Tan also arranged scenes for himself and Susa.

Bao Shihong traded with Brother Dao, and Brother Dao directly drove a motorcycle and snatched Bao Shihong's backpack, but a car was parked in front of him, and the man and woman in the car were flirting. Then as soon as the man in the car opened the door, he happened to rub Brother Dao who was driving, and Brother Dao threw himself on the street.

Two very interesting tricks.

"What kind of character is this, flirting in the car, giving me a little bit of a lady." Susa didn't really like this trick.

Zhang Tan scratched his hair: "No." ”

Susa pouted in acceptance.

Zhang Tan smiled and dialed Liu Anfeng's phone instead: "Sissi, it's me." ”

"Detective, are you so free to call me?" Liu Anfeng yawned on the other end of the phone, and didn't seem to have slept well.

"I want you to make a cameo in my movie, do you have time?"

Liu Anfeng said: "The inspector invited me, how can I not have time, there is." But what role do you assign to me? ”

"Well, the reception of a real estate boss, a few shots."

"Reception, it's the little secretary, right?"

"If that's what you understand, that's right."

"Well, I haven't acted in a modern drama yet, when will I act?"

"Wait for me to inform."

"Uh-huh."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Tan saw Susa, who was looking at him with scrutinizing eyes.

Zhang Tan unconsciously felt a gust of wind and covered his coat: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”

Susa said angrily: "Why do you want to invite that Liu Anfeng to make a cameo, and you don't have any acting skills, don't you just have a beautiful face, and you may not be as beautiful as me." ”

For Liu Anfeng, Susa has always had a deep sense of jealousy, of course, the reason is that at the beginning, when Zhang Tan saw Liu Anfeng, his eyes lit up, thinking that he had found the little dragon girl.

Since then, Zhang Tan and Liu Anfeng have always maintained a general good friend relationship, and occasionally talk on the phone.

"If you want to talk about fame, she is a little dragon girl, the little dragon girl I brought out. In terms of acting skills, you two sisters don't talk about the second sister, they are all unsatisfactory. But if you want to say pretty, of course, Sasha is the most beautiful you, she is average. Zhang Tan's mouth was like smearing honey, "I just borrowed her fame to bring some popularity to the movie." ”

Susa turned her anger into joy, but she still didn't let her guard down: "Anyway, I don't like Liu Anfeng." ”

"Huh." Zhang Tan smiled and shook his head.

……

The invitation of the star gave Zhang Tan face.

Xu Shanzheng, a well-known comedian in the mainland, promised to make a cameo appearance in the role of Feng Dong and did not receive remuneration. Xu Shanzheng starred in "Spring Splendid Pig Bajie", which was popular in China and has a great reputation in the field of comedy.

A big-name female star in Taiwan, Zhen Jingwen, who played the heroine of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", agreed to make a cameo appearance as Bao Shihong's wife.

Liang Jiahuang, a well-known actor in Xiangxiang and winner of the Academy Awards and Golden Horse Awards, agreed to play the role of Mike. Liang Jiahuang first came to the mainland to film in the 80s, and was banned by Taiwan because of this, but now he is very popular in Xiangxiang, and he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor the year before last.

Zhang Tan liked Liang Jiahuang's movie very much, so he contacted Liang Jiahuang, originally Zhang Tan felt that this was a supporting role, not many scenes, Liang Jiahuang did not necessarily agree, but I didn't expect Liang Jiahuang to be very face-saving, so he agreed directly.

So far.

The cast of "Crazy Stone", except for the black skin, is complete.

A low-budget comedy with cameo appearances as big-name stars, but shiny and dazzling.

The cast is booked, and April Fool's Day is here.

Zhang Tan had to put down what he was doing and go to Joint Bookstore to participate in the book signing.

The scale of this book signing meeting was quite large, and Sanlian Bookstore spent more than 100,000 yuan just to prepare for the scene. A number of huge posters of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" cover almost every corner of the outer wall of the Taofen Book Center.

When Zhang Tan arrived at the scene at noon, he saw that the entire section of Art Museum Street and Cuifu Sandwich Road in front of the store were densely packed with people. This place was originally a relatively prosperous area, but the crowd was so dense that there were almost no people, even if Zhang Tan once held a book signing party here, there were not so many people.

"Tan Zhang, these people are all book lovers who came to participate in the book signing, there are all over the country, and there are also from Xiangxiang, Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia." Wei Ranzhi led Zhang Tan into the store from the back door.

Zhang Tan was extremely surprised: "There are too many people today, right?" ”

"We didn't expect that the number of people who came today would be almost tens of thousands, this is still a relatively short time for us to release the news, if we release the news a month earlier, it is estimated that there will be 20,000 people today!" Wei Ranzhi sighed and said.

He expected Zhang Tan's appeal to be very high, but he still underestimated it.

Just one signature, tens of thousands of people ran over. This influence is even crazier than the average singer holding a concert, and there is only one writer with such influence in Asia.

"I regret it now, Mr. Wei, I didn't agree to hold a book signing meeting if I knew it, these tens of thousands of people, let me sign, I broke my hand to sign, can I finish signing?"

"Sign it at the set time, sign as many copies as you can, and I think your fans will understand you."

"That's all there is to it."

In this way, with a mood of happiness and trouble, Zhang Tan took a break and entered the hall on the first floor of the Sanlian Taofen Book Center, the main venue of the book signing party. (To be continued.) )
