Chapter Ninety-Nine. 【The legendary "Soy Sauce Emperor"】

25 December 1998.

For Yi Feiyang, this Christmas must not be easy.

Filming requires investors, crews, photographers, makeup artists, and lighting engineers...... There must be a director, a hero and a heroine, and of course, supporting roles and extras!

Follow the operation of Henry the Elephant's previous adult films, simple, the cinematographer works part-time as a director, a bed, and then a couple of men and women, or a bunch of men and women, 3P, 4P, 5, 6P!

After a set of processes, it only takes one day to complete the shooting.

But now it's different, and I have to shoot a "blockbuster".

Although the total investment of this "blockbuster" is only 300,000 US dollars, it is really a "blockbuster" in the field of adult films with an investment of only seven or eight thousand!

Henry the Elephant has never done such a "blockbuster", so all the power is handed over to Yi Feiyang, who he trusts incomparably.

However, when Yi Feiyang was driving with all his might, Henry the elephant still patted him on the shoulder to cheer him on.

"Dear Yi, I know that you can do it, filming is very good, so I have to work hard for you! Whether our TOP company can make a classic drama, and whether I can be remembered with your drama after death, all of this depends on you! ”

In fact, during this period, Yi Feiyang also learned some things about how the elephant Henry would stalk himself for help.

In addition to Henry the Elephant's wish to complete the filming of the classic before he died, there is another reason because during this time his TOP has been severely challenged by his peers.

Especially those companies that are jealous of the huge profits in this industry, they want to suppress the TOP companies by any means.

Henry the elephant was furious about this, he wasn't dead yet. These guys are here to smash the field. Is it tolerable or unbearable!

He desperately needs a drama to prove his status as the boss of the industry.

Person. It's all selfish!

Not to mention the bigwigs of these underground film companies!

Yi Feiyang doesn't care about these personal grievances, rivers and lakes.

Now, he is only interested in the eight cinema chains, and he is interested in this drama, and he just wants to use some method to shoot the drama more exciting and good-looking, and then buy the eight cinema chains according to the contract to create his own cinema system.

As long as you have your own theater. I can not look at the faces of other companies, from a small company that does not enter the stream, to a large company with complete limbs, so that the production, copying, distribution, and release are integrated, and it is truly soaring!

However, Henry the Elephant emphasized one point at the end, "Yi, as we say in the contract." You can't use too much of your Dream Pictures' resources to shoot this film, yes. It doesn't work! Except for the actor named Big Bird Lucci, you can only use our TOP people for other roles, do you know what I mean? ”

Of course, Yi Feiyang understood what he meant, after all, this was to make a name for the TOP and give him the elephant Henry to set up a "chastity archway...... Compared to the shit porn he filmed before, this drama is definitely chaste enough...... Instead of making a name for itself in Dream Pictures.

Now that he is the director, Bill the Rabbit is the assistant director, the big bird Lucci is the leading actor, and the other characters use people from Dream Pictures, this drama has really become a dream creation, not a TOP production.

Henry the elephant didn't want to go to great lengths to make a wedding dress for others, so in order to eliminate this possibility, he gave Yi Feiyang a ban. In short, only by using the resources of TOP can we prove that this drama belongs to TOP creation!

For the request made by Henry the elephant, Yi Feiyang gladly accepted. In fact, he planned early on, Big Bird Lucci will be the male protagonist of this play, Stormy will be the heroine of this play, and as for the supporting roles, Yi Feiyang will be openly recruited in the TOP company.

In accordance with Yi Feiyang's suggestion, TOP Company issued a recruitment notice and asked all the actors under the company, including those actors, to line up at the gate of the company to participate in the interview.

In fact, whether you can recruit good actors, the salary must not be sloppy, not to mention that there are still underground movies, everyone comes out to mix, betrays youth, and sells meat. body, for these things.

Therefore, it is rare for Henry the elephant in this scene to tell everyone generously that a good supporting actor can get at least $3,000 in salary!

This price is definitely a big temptation compared to the fact that you shoot an adult film in other underground companies and only pay a few hundred dollars for a play.

Early the next morning, two tables were set up in the conference room of the TOP company, with Yi Feiyang and Rabbit Bill in the back, and in front of them was a row of underground actors who came to apply.

The queue is very long, which makes Yi Feiyang surprised that there are so many people engaged in adult movies.

I thought that the people who filmed this kind of scene were basically handsome guys and beautiful women, but in fact, American adult audiences have very mixed tastes, so in addition to sturdy men and women who are greased and powdered, there are also some uncles and aunts, who are now older, and Yi Feiyang was stunned.

"What do they do?"

"Oh, the parent, the weeder, the priest, the nun, or the school teacher who plays the hero and heroine in an adult film!" Bill Rabbit is very familiar with this line of work.

Yi Feiyang sighed: It's really true, every line has every line is wonderful!

……

A few hours later.

"Yawn! Boss, there are too many people here, we have only recruited less than a quarter of them so far, and your requirements are too high, I think as long as it is about the same. Rabbit Bill rubbed his temples and complained to Yi Feiyang.

"You know a fart, a big reason for the success of a movie comes from the actors in it, if the actors don't perform well, the ghost will watch it!" Yi Feiyang glared at Beer.

Henry, the elephant who secretly ran over for a "private interview with Weifu", heard it in the back, and couldn't help nodding again and again, and said in his heart, "This China Yi really has a set, look at it, how professional!" ”

……

After a busy morning, Yi Feiyang's mood was both happy and worried, and the joy was that these underground actors were eager to act in such "blockbusters" (perhaps it had something to do with the fact that they often shoot small-scale adult films), they will not pick and choose like those actors introduced by the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild, they just stand in front of you honestly and perform accordingly according to what you say.

And what is easy to fly up is that all the actors have an obvious stage performance style, and watching them perform, you will feel that they are acting in dramas, sketches, not movies.

This is also the performance style of underground cinema during this period.

A little pretentious, a little deliberate, they feel that they are performing, not out of the heart and the role they want to play together, they don't know how to perform life in its original way, only know that Lu Dao, according to the previous filming, the hero and heroine roll on the bed, and they play soy sauce, acting as passers-by.

……

"Next!" Rabbit Bill shouted next to Yi Feiyang, and a well-dressed old man with thinning hair stood in front of him.

His hair is really thin, but these few hairs are obediently groomed by him, and they are very firmly glued to the scalp, making the whole head look smooth and bright.

On the whole, although this old man is not good-looking, he pays great attention to decency, but as soon as he walks, he is exposed, limps, and turns out to be a cripple!

The cripple walks very funny, and the people around him laugh at him, saying that such a dead cripple even wants to make a movie, they laugh at him, ridicule him, and some of them even whistle at him.

"Boss, do you want to pass it directly?" Rabbit Bill whispered close to Yi Feiyang's ear.

Yi Feiyang ignored him, but set his eyes on this old man, and it could be seen that he seemed to be used to this kind of ridicule and ridicule, and his face was a little numb and a little disapproving.

"What's your name, old man?" Yi Feiyang smiled.

The old man crossed his hands, bowed respectfully to Yi Feiyang, and then said in a very respectful tone, "Hello, Mr. Director, my name is Abraham, I am of Arab descent, and I am very happy to be able to apply here this time." ”

"Do you know what kind of movie we're going to make?"

"Yes, sir, I know that you are going to shoot an adult film."

"Then you should know that this kind of movie generally doesn't want people of your age."

"Yes, sir, as you said, I have been rejected many times."

"Then why do you want to apply?"

"Because I love acting." Abraham said very solemnly.

"It's a pity that I'm a cripple, so many filming crews won't want me, because I will be a burden. But I really love acting, and since I was a kid I loved watching movies, imitating the dialogue of the characters and learning how they behaved......" Abraham said sincerely.

"And what role are you going to apply for this time?" Yi Feiyang looked at the old man with such a pious attitude and couldn't help but ask.

"You can play any role, as long as you can give me a line...... Yes, just one sentence! Then I will be able to fulfill my dream of being an actor! I can go back and tell my wife, God, I have a line, you can see me talking in the play......"

"Your wife? However, will she be able to accept you taking on adult films? ”

"It's all right, sir." Abraham had a hint of bitterness on his face, "She's dead, so she definitely won't mind what kind of scene I'm filming." ”

Dejected!

Yi Feiyang's mood suddenly darkened.

The people who were still pointing fingers at Abraham suddenly fell silent.

The whole atmosphere around me was a little weird.

Everyone looked at the poor old man named Abraham with strange eyes.

Could it be that he has any other touching stories?

Otherwise, a man has been able to hold on until now, just hoping to get a line in a play?! (To be continued......)
