Chapter 59: Who is arrogant and domineering?
More than 20 familiar face stars are standing in a row, and they are all a group of villains as far as the eye can see. Especially in the middle of this group of golden green leaves, wearing a pure white hollow shawl dress, the black bright belt around the waist tied Ying Ying's small waist, and the red hatred of the sky was even more slender and slender. This girl is dressed up, and it turns out to be Li Jiaxin.
ββYes, the actor Jiang Zhiqiang invited to play the only female role is Li Jiaxin.
No matter what the reason made her agree to play such a three-no role with no lines, no charm, and no performance, others can't know after all. Anyway, she just said yes.
The safflower still needs to be lined with green leaves, and Li Jiaxin, who was already so beautiful that she had no friends in the past, is standing next to a group of golden green leaves at this moment, which makes it seem that there is nothing in the sky and on the ground. If you want to find the most beautiful moments in your life, Li Jiaxin feels that there will definitely be a place for this scene at this moment.
deliberately dressed so beautifully, and there were no female stars competing on the same stage, she naturally became the focus of the audience, and the media competed to follow her. She said in awkward Mandarin: "Although I have played very few scenes, I am very happy to have so many gold medal famous actors playing." The director promised me that I was the only female character in the whole movie, and I was so happy. β
At present, Hong Kong celebrities are interviewed, and they will not develop the habit of Mandarin in later generations. But she had been informed in advance that she would have to answer in Mandarin this time. The Hong Kong media were surprised, and the Apple Daily reporter said in a frivolous tone: "Michelle, your Chinese is very bad, let's speak Cantonese." β
"No, there are mainland media compatriots at the scene, and we need to take care of everyone's emotions and speak Chinese to be respectful." Although this is a request from the filmmaker, I think this is very good and right. Now that Hong Kong has also returned, there will definitely be more mainland media coming in the future, and I suggest that everyone use Chinese. She couldn't say these words herself, but she was happy to explain the result of her instructions in advance.
The reporters were stunned, and there was no way to refute it.
Among a group of actors, Xie Xian and Zeng Jiang are undoubtedly the leading big brothers. Everyone was surprised to see that there were villains and actors around them. Because I didn't know in advance that there would be so many "peers" participating in this movie, and now I look at the usual competitors who want to cooperate in the same movie, and my eyes are very weird.
However, several actors from the mainland automatically formed a group, and among a group of Hong Kong people who chatted generously in Cantonese, they seemed a little "lonely", and even Liu Ye, who was usually the most out-of-the-box, was honest.
A reporter from "Oriental Daily" asked: "Director, is this your unprecedented top-level luxury lineup?" Why are they all third, fourth and fifth-tier actors, is it because the crew has insufficient budget and can't afford to hire stars? β
Happy didn't change his face and said with a smile: "This is the top luxury lineup I need." Although everyone's salary is not too high, we are not without money, even if we want to invite Andy Lau and Liang Chaowei, there is no problem. In my mind, the best choice is for an actor to fit the character well. It doesn't matter if you look down on third-, fourth- and fifth-tier actors, but looking at all the blockbuster movies in Hong Kong, which one does not have these people. Salted fish also has a time to turn over, and now is the best time for the supporting characters to rebel. β
The reporters were dumbfounded for a while, and a few green leaves who didn't think it was a big deal even applauded, "Well done." β
There are too many actors, and the reporter randomly selected a few well-known ones and asked a few questions, "Fourth brother, what made you join this movie?" β
Xie Xian said simply: "Give money, at my age, is there any other reason?" If people are willing to ask you to act, you just need to come. "If you say it so bluntly, the trend of relying on the old and selling the old is obvious. Anyway, with his qualifications, no matter what the producer, he can't let him "pretend to be a grandson". Most people who are familiar with it won't take it seriously, anyway, he has this temperament.
The general is also very old, but he is very good at talking, and said with a smile: "The main thing is that the script is very well written, and the director is kind to invite, so I can't refuse." But this kind of answer is also perfunctory. A group of villain actors get together, if you just look at your face, I'm afraid that the scared children will cry. also makes people sweat for this little director, can he control it.
The reporter was obviously more concerned about this problem, and immediately turned the gun and killed it again, and said: "Director, may I ask so many actors, how do you coordinate the scenes between various characters." Everyone has their own way of acting, do you think you can fully develop their acting skills? β
Happy spread his hands, "This is obviously a problem. In terms of seniority, you are all my respected predecessors. I don't think that if I won a Golden Bear Award, I am some great director. But in the crew, the relationship between each other is the relationship between the director and the actors, and it is enough to do their part. The professionalism of these invited actors has been approved by the industry for many years, so there is no need to mention it. As for how the scenes are coordinated? We are scripted, the actors are based on the story, and I can only guarantee that all the main characters will have room to perform. β
But the reporter was not so easy to dismiss, and immediately threw out the trap: "What do you think of this gangster movie compared to "Crazy Boy"? β
The first film of "Crazy Boy" has achieved a box office of 20 million Hong Kong dollars since its release in 96, and it has made a lot of money. But the common problem of Hong Kong movies: any classic series should not have a scientific development time, and the best sequel production interval is one year, because word-of-mouth needs to ferment. None of this will work in Hong Kong, and the producers are eager to make ten films a year and get the money out quickly. So there were three sequels to "Crazy Boy" in a row that year, which directly led to the exhaustion of this theme. However, the production of the two sequels released in 97 and 98 still achieved the top ten at the annual box office that year, which shows the status of this theme in the minds of Hong Kong people.
When the reporter asks for words, he may get a modest answer, but he doesn't know that Happy is an immodest person.
happily raised his eyebrows, and it seemed that there were not enough news explosions, so he bluntly released a heavy cannon, and said: ""Crazy Boy" has been very popular in recent years, creating another classic of the Hong Kong gangster theme, but it is two different types from my movie. I don't mind comparing it to other movies, but that's only before my movie is released. I'm pretty sure, but once my film is released, I'm afraid not many directors are willing to compare it with their own films. β
"Huh~~"
The audience was in an uproar, looking sideways and discussing, "This young man is restless and rampant." "Rampant is called a young man, otherwise they are all old men." "No matter how much he has, I only know that there is news, and I despise "Crazy Boy". ββ¦β¦
A group of Hong Kong actors around him also looked at him in surprise, this young man is so confident. If it sounds good, it is called self-confidence, and if it is bad, it is arrogant. Xie Xian couldn't get used to the arrogance of young people, and he walked away a few steps without concealment, seemingly distancing himself from happiness. Happy naturally noticed it, but didn't care.
Jiang Zhiqiang's cheeks twitched, he had the heart to interrupt and round the field, but what position did he have to interrupt?
"I'm a reporter from Apple Daily, may I ask the director, I would like to know what kind of box office do you want to get to surpass "Crazy Boy" with this lineup and no star face? It makes other movies incomparable. β
Happy was still smiling and said, "Do you think this lineup can't sell well at the box office without a star face?" β
The paparazzi was stunned, as if it was the first time he met a celebrity who asked a reporter, and said stubbornly, "Yes." β
In the face of the increasingly excited group of reporters, Happy still looked calm, and said eloquently: "In my mind, Hong Kong films have an irreplaceable special status in the Chinese-language film industry, and Hong Kong audiences should be the same, with incomparable experience in watching movies and superior viewing quality." It's just that I don't know, since when did Hong Kong audiences start to look at celebrity faces, or are you the only one? If there is, the audience still has the stage of watching the faces of celebrities in the past, so starting from my movie, it should be the era of watching the director. β
There are too many familiar faces today, which can be regarded as starry. But even if Li Jiaxin, who is known as "shocking" and beautiful, is present, it can't stop a person's light.
Li Jiaxin also looked at him in surprise, she didn't have a deep impression of happiness, but now she has a general understanding, "I speak mostly in written language, I look polite, it seems that I was born in a scholarly family, but the content of this speech is too ...... You're welcome. If this young man is not arrogant, then he has absolute confidence in his films. β
Not to mention the future, but this calm and calm talk has changed many people's impressions.
smiled happily and continued: "If you ask me about the box office expectations of the movie, I will naturally answer that the more the merrier. I don't know if it will surpass "Crazy Boy" at the box office in Hong Kong, but I bet that "Crazy Smoking Gun" will surpass "Crazy Boy" at the global box office. β
"The film is expected to be shot in a month, and if everything goes well, the schedule will be set for this year's Chinese New Year. Time flies quickly, so please wait and see. β
