"Brother Zhao, how are you playing these days?"

On the plane, Menjie was wearing huge sunglasses, covering half of his face, judging from his appearance, if he was not very familiar with people, it was indeed difficult to recognize the identity of Menjie at a glance, and Zhao Dong sat aside, looking at his mental state, it was obviously much stronger than the fatigue of the previous days.

It can be seen that the rest of these days is not only very useful to Menjie, but also to Zhao Dong.

"I finally took a few days off, naturally I had a good rest, although I didn't play much, but I also bought a lot of Xiangjiang specialties, waiting to go home to surprise my wife and children!"

Sitting next to Menjie, Zhao Dong said with a smile, Zhao Dong has not played much these days, but lingered in many local places in Xiangjiang that sell special products, and the big bags and small bags are full of three packs, just waiting to go home and distribute them to relatives and friends one by one.

"That's right!"

Suddenly thinking of something, Zhao Dong hurriedly took out a few documents from the briefcase on the side and handed them to Menjie, "Although I have been resting these days, I have not left behind some basic and necessary work, you can take a look at these materials!" ”

"What information?"

was puzzled, but Menjie still took the documents handed over by Zhao Dong and read them one by one.

"It's a lot of audition invitations for movies I've gotten these days!"

While explaining to Menjie, Zhao Dong couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face, feeling a little arrogant.

"Some time ago, I heard that you played the No. 1 supporting actor in the movie "Myth", and the salary was 800,000 yuan, and many people clamored that you were not worth the price, and now you look at the price that these movies give you, aren't they all at this price?!"

Once, Menjie was a newcomer in the film industry. When he starred in the movie "Kung Fu", the salary he got was a little low compared to other newcomers, only a few 120,000 soft girl coins, and the final one was only more than 50,000 yuan, but after all, it was Zhou Xingchi's movie, even if he didn't give a penny, there would be many people who wanted to grab it, and Menjie didn't care much.

In the later movie "Jingwu Family", Menjie's salary rose to 350,000, which is not a lot. is also a lot stronger than the newcomer, the reason is naturally because he starred in Zhou Xingchi's movie "Kung Fu".

When participating in the movie "Myth", because there were more scenes, the filming was also very hard. It takes a lot of places to run around, if you look at it at the normal market price. gave Menjie a salary of 600,000. It was enough, but Fang Chenglong finally gave a full salary of 800,000!

Of course, there is a reason that 'Men Jie is very suitable for this role', but I have to say that Fang Chenglong is indeed very generous in terms of actors' salaries.

However, Fang Chengchan is generous. But it has caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the unsatisfactory old-timers in the circle, in line with 'I haven't encountered this kind of good thing, why is it the turn of the newcomer Menjie? 'Attitude. Indeed, there are many second-tier old actors who are not very famous and muttered in private, feeling that the salary given to Menjie is too much, and Menjie is not worth the price at all.

In the face of this situation, Menjie really has nothing to say.

Since then, the price given by Fang Chenglong is indeed about 200,000 higher than his own worth, and secondly, he is an old-timer after all, although Menjie feels nothing, but if he openly shouts at the other party, it will inevitably give people a feeling of 'throwing off a big name'.

Even if Menjie is not a big name, there will be many reporters and media who will smear Menjie in this way for the sake of magazine sales.

In desperation, Menjie could only pretend not to hear, anyway, if he didn't say it in front of him, Menjie didn't need to pay too much attention to it.

Of course, if there is an eyeless 'old-timer', relying on his qualifications, dare to call in front of Menjie, Menjie will not be able to get used to the other party and give others a feeling of 'easy bullying'.

But now......

Since a few days ago, Men Jie won the 'Best New Actor at the 24th Xiangjiang Film Awards', the Newcomer Award, the top film award in the Chinese film industry, whether it is identity, status or salary, there has been a certain improvement.

Just like being an official, although the rights of the acting mayor and the official mayor are the same, after having a name, it also represents the improvement of his identity and status.

As for the value and salary......

With such a heavy trophy as the 'Xiangjiang Film Awards', how can Menjie's salary not be raised to a higher level? !

Even if Menjie's trophy is the lightest actor award at the awards ceremony, it is also very valuable.

Probably such a trophy is enough to increase Menjie's salary by between 100,000 and 150,000!

Then, in addition, because he starred in Fang Chenglong's movie "Myth", it was predicted by many people in the circle that after the release of "Myth", Menjie's popularity will be able to go further.

It's just that now, Menjie, who has millions of fans, can already be compared to the top first-line movie stars, and even some top movie stars who are more miserable.

As a result, Menjie, who was originally recognized as having a salary of about 600,000, increased his salary by about 200,000 again in just three or four days, and really reached a figure of 800,000.

From this point of view, the 800,000 salary given by Fang Chenglong does not seem so high, it can only be regarded as normal.

At this point, the 'old-timers' who used to talk about Menjie in private could only mumble a few words like 'Menjie's luck is so good', and then they didn't say anything more.

After all, Menjie has been developing in the entertainment industry for more than a year, and they have achieved their achievements for decades, what face do they have to catch such a trivial matter? It's just a laughing stock.

And now, the few pieces of information that Zhao Dong took out fully prove that Menjie's current salary!

Zhao Dong took several materials to Menjie, which were audition invitations sent to Menjie by three movies, among which the lowest salary was given, which was 760,000, and the highest, even reached 840,000, which shows how much Menjie's worth at this time has improved compared with a year ago!

""The Third Year of High School", "The Botanist's Daughter", "The Siege of the Murderer"?"

Looking at the names of the three movies that Zhao Dong handed him, Menjie thought to himself, it seemed that he was flipping through the basic information of the three movies, but in fact, he was using the Tianwang system to investigate the details of these three movies.

Among the three films, "Senior High" is a quite literary documentary, the film is very inspirational, it tells a very idealistic history of collective struggle, and truly presents the personal struggle experience of a tragic ant, but unfortunately, it is not very outstanding in terms of production cost and box office.

If your acting skills are stuck at a limit, ready to accumulate experience, or if you want to seek a breakthrough, Menjie may choose this type of movie and seek some awards and glory, but now......

With the script of "Wulin Gaiden", it is impossible for Men Jie to spend time and effort starring in this movie because of the salary of 800,000 yuan.

In terms of "Siege of the Murderer", compared with the former, the production has indeed become larger, but it is not even comparable to the former, and the box office may be slightly better than the former, but it is not very much, but in terms of word-of-mouth, it is much worse than the former, and Menjie has no reason to choose it.

and the last movie "The Botanist's Daughter", Menjie pays more attention.

The film is foreign-funded, directed by Luc ? Besson is also an experienced director, although the investment in the film is not very large, but it is better than the script, and it is called the 'female version of "Brokeback Mountain""!

dares to speak with the work of the great director Li Case who won the 'Oscar for Best Director', which shows that this script is also very good, which is also the reason why Menjie is excited.

even saw that at the beginning of this movie, he wanted to look for Zhang Manyu and Zhou Xun to star, and Menjie even had an urge to 'grit his teeth and agree to come down', but after the final consideration, Menjie still shook his head slightly, pushed the last script aside, and whispered to Zhao Dong, "Brother Zhao, push it all away!" ”

The last script is indeed very seductive, but there are actually only two protagonists in the whole film, and all of them are women, and the film itself revolves around two lesbians.

Although the actor who invited the door to play is the male number one with the most scenes in the play, such a male number one, even if he is brilliant, is the foil of the two female protagonists after all, even if he wins the award, it will definitely not be the turn of the male leader.

What's more, like the first film "Senior High School", the movie "The Botanist's Daughter" also has a huge flaw at the box office.

This is really a problem that cannot be ignored for Menjie, who has always been committed to 'focusing on shooting blockbuster movies'.

In addition, a month or two later, the filming of "Myth" ended, and Menjie still had to prepare and shoot "Wulin Gaiden", so naturally he didn't hesitate too much, so he asked Zhao Dong to push off these three high-paid movies for himself.

If what is now in front of Menjie is a top-notch script with quite blockbuster potential, Menjie may consider delaying the filming of "Wulin Gaiden" and shooting the movie first, but now these three movies are just first-class movies, and even the first two movies can only be regarded as works in the middle and lower reaches of high-class movies, how can Menjie make such a big sacrifice?

The delay in the filming of "Wulin Gaiden" means that Menjie will spend a lot of money, if it is not for the too good script, Menjie would not have been able to make such a sacrifice!

"Okay, then I'll push these three scripts away first, and I'll show you if there's a suitable one!"

nodded, for Menjie, who has always been very 'lucky' and always able to get high-quality scripts, Zhao Dong also felt that these three scripts were not very suitable, so he accepted it directly without too much hesitation. (To be continued.) )
