Although Shao smelled something unusual from the negotiations, he didn't think that "Top Secret Mission" would make much of a box office outside of Asia, so he happily signed the contract. Zeng Zhiwei also approached Yuan Heping for directing, and he was willing to direct a new film of the Tang Dynasty, which was a good opportunity to enhance his status in the circle.

And after reading the script, he had to admit that "Top Secret Mission" is a rare action movie script, and as a director and action director, it would be a pity to miss it. It's just that he's now working as an action director for a movie, and it will take at least half a month to make time, and the Tang Dynasty movie can't wait.

Zeng Zhiwen immediately clapped his head when he heard this: "The time is just right, you also read the script just now, this is a complete action movie, there are a lot of fight scenes and explosion scenes in it, it stands to reason that it is most suitable to find an actor with martial arts skills to play it." But to be honest, there are few martial arts actors in Hong Kong, and there are almost no who meet the conditions in appearance, so in desperation, they can only give priority to whether the appearance conditions are met when selecting actors. ”

"As for the male protagonist, Liang Chaowei, one of the wireless 'Five Tiger Generals', and the heroine is Li Zhi, neither of them has any martial arts background, although many fight scenes can be completed by stand-ins, but I can't do it if I'm too watery, Ah Chen means that the two of them will go to the Yuan family class to train for half a month, not asking them to become real martial arts actors, as long as they can put up a fight."

Yuan Heping has read the script carefully just now, and he already knows the requirements for the male and female protagonists, Tang Jianian is handsome and handsome but silent, Tang Li Huixian is enchanting and hot, not to mention the personality, Liang Chaowei and Li Zhi fully meet the requirements in terms of appearance.

And the most obvious shortcoming is that Zeng Zhiwei said that he has no martial arts foundation, and he has seen Liang Chaowei on TV, and feels that if Liang Chaowei wants to play Tang Jiannian, his body is still a little thin, after all, Tang Jiannian in the movie is a top killer in the world, and he is strong enough to interpret this role more real and plump, after thinking about it, he nodded and said: "This is no problem, I will try to make them meet the minimum requirements for filming in this month's time, It's just that the other preparatory work has to be done with Lao Zeng. ”

Zeng Zhiwei said happily: "Then it's decided, if Director Yuan is free, he can sign a contract with Tang Dynasty Films tomorrow morning, and the training can start the day after tomorrow." ”

Next, Zeng Zhiwei communicated with Yuan Heping about some of Gu Chen's requirements for filming, and the two chatted for almost two hours before leaving......

On the third day, Gu Chen accompanied Li Zhi and Liang Chaowei to Yuan Jiaban's residence when he had nothing to do, and on the way, Li Zhi said aggrievedly: "Do you really want to live in the martial arts for half a month?" It's all men, and it's so inconvenient for me to live there as a woman. ”

Gu Chen patted Lizhi's hand and said comfortingly: "Who said that there are no women, there are many female stand-ins in the film industry, don't worry, Awei has already agreed with Yuan Heping, I will try to take care of you as much as possible, hold on, it's just half a month, and it will pass in the blink of an eye." ”

Having said that, Li Zhi naturally didn't dare to make trouble unreasonably. There was silence in the carriage for a while, Gu Chen looked at Liang Chaowei, who had been silent in front of him, and asked, "Wei Zai, I heard that you are filming a TV series, and now you suddenly leave the crew, are all arrangements arranged?" ”

"The company has arranged everything, I was only a supporting role in that play, and it has just started filming, and the company directly changed the actor." After saying this, Liang Chaowei was silent again, so Gu Chen saw the taciturn of Liang Chaowei in the legend of his previous life, so he stopped talking.

The car slowly parked at the station of Yuan Jiaban, in fact, it is a not small yard, in the middle is a large open space, in addition to the gate, the other three sides are surrounded by three two-story houses, a few of them just walked into the yard, Yuan Heping and a few people greeted together, before approaching Yuan Heping's hearty laughter: "Ha Lu haha, Chen Shao is here, it really makes the humble house shine." ”

"Director Yuan is polite, who doesn't know that the Yuan family class is one of the best martial arts in Hong Kong, and it really deserves its reputation when I see it today." Gu Chen and Yuan Heping shook hands and looked at the few people who were originally training in the open space, although it was winter now, but these people were only wearing thin short sleeves.

Yuan Heping sighed lightly and said: "As a martial artist, all you earn is hard-earned money, and you usually don't sweat much, but I'm afraid you'll have to bleed when you actually play." ”

Gu Chen saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy, and when he didn't know what to say, he suddenly found that a young man standing behind Yuan Heping's side was a little familiar, he looked at it carefully a few more times, and then he recognized that between the lightning and flint, countless thoughts flashed irrepressibly in his mind.

"This gentleman is somewhat familiar......

Yuan Heping followed Gu Chen's line of sight and saw Donnie Yen, and a trace of joy flashed on his face, the reason why he came out to greet Gu Chen and brought a few disciples was to hope that Gu Chen could take a fancy to him and find a way out, judging from Gu Chen's reaction at this time, he obviously fell in love with Donnie Yen, "This is Donnie Yen, a Chinese-American, who has won the championship of American martial arts competitions and starred in two movies." ”

Without Yuan Heping's orders, Donnie Yen immediately nodded at Gu Chen and said, "Hello Chen Shao." ”

Gu Chen replied with a smile and said: "I have watched the two movies starring Mr. Zhen, and I personally feel very good, the martial arts movements are clean and neat, and they are not separated from the water at all, and they can be said to be in a class of their own among Hong Kong martial arts actors, and, hehe, to put it superficially, in terms of image, Mr. Zhen is definitely the best martial arts actor in Hong Kong now, and his achievements in the future will definitely not be under Cheng Long." ”

With Gu Chen's praise like this, Donnie Yen's expression was a little restrained, and he hurriedly said politely: "Chen Shao praised me, you can just call me Danny." ”

Gu Chen nodded, and then saw Yuan Heping say with a smile on his face: "Look at me, just patronize and talk, Chen Shao and a few people should sit inside." ”

I can't help but be unhappy, Donnie Yen is his most valued disciple, although the response to the two movies starring him before is very average, but he still has high hopes, and now Gu Chen is the only one among several disciples who favors Donnie Yen, which is already very revealing, maybe it won't be long before Tang Dynasty movies will find Donnie Yen to make movies.
