For the role of Mr. Tree, Bao Qiang, who usually doesn't smoke much, now has three packs a day, and his mouth is about to foam.

I heard that in order to get closer to the character, he also went to his hometown to the countryside and played with the people in the village every day, and he was indispensable for red and white ceremonies.

Bao Qiang was busy with transformation, Huang Bo only took over the script, and Wu Jing prepared for the new movie a few years in advance...... It seems that when people reach middle age, everyone has a different transformation.

Qin Dynasty Entertainment, Ding Xiu's office.

On the sofa chair, Qin Gang solemnly put the two scripts in front of Ding Xiu.

"Brother Xiu, a good news and a bad news, which one to listen to?"

Ding Xiu, who was lying on his side playing with his mobile phone, didn't even glance at him: "Let's talk about the good news first." ”

After the embroidered spring knife was completed last year, he was first busy promoting the ghost blowing out the lantern, and then the ghost blowing the lantern ended, and then publicized the embroidered spring knife, and finally rested for a few days and began to deal with the New Year's greetings.

If Qin Gang hadn't come to him, he wouldn't have come to the company.

The corners of Qin Gang's mouth cracked, and he said with a smile: "Two scripts, one is Longmen Feijia, starring Li Lianjie, you are the second male lead." ”

"Not acting." Ding Xiu refused.

With his current coffee position, even if the opponent is Li Lianjie, he doesn't want to match the other party.

In a word, only the male number one is played.

It is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

"Listen to me." Qin Gang said: "Although your role is the second male lead, the role is no less than that of Li Lianjie, and even a little more, saying that you are playing for him, but in fact, he is playing for Ling, but he is a superstar, and the reputation of the entire male number two is not good, so on the surface he is the first male." ”

Ding Xiu put down his mobile phone, sat upright, took the script, and said with a smile: "Which gold master's father held me this time?" ”

Longmen Flying Armor, as soon as you hear the name, you know that it is a copy of the Dragon Gate Inn

Many years ago, this drama was starring Brother Jiahui, and the box office was also good.

Again, I didn't expect to be myself.

How much money did the filmmaker give Li Lianjie to invite him over.

"Lao Qin, you've worked hard this time."

thought that Qin Gang funded and participated in the investment, so he had his own script, and Ding Xiu was moved.

That's Li Lianjie, the most expensive Chinese actor, there is no one, with a salary of more than 100 million.

"I'm not hard." Qin Gang was stunned for a second, and then said: "You are underestimating yourself too much, the producer came to the door of this drama and personally named you to act." ”

"Looking for the dragon, embroidering the spring knife, the two dramas have completely opened up the film market, and now there are many people looking for you to film, and the script can't be accepted."

"Brother Xiu, it's no exaggeration to say that you are now the most popular young actor in China, and you are not at all high with Li Lianjie, otherwise I would not be able to accept this script."

As Ding Xiu became more and more popular, the audience's expectations for him became higher and higher, and Qin Gang became more and more cautious in the selection of scripts.

After the performance, the audience felt normal, a little almost, and the greeting was immediately the sound of saliva.

It's hard to want to be popular, it's too simple to want to be black, and after a few bad dramas have been filmed, there is no word of mouth.

Ding Xiu looked at the script, he played the role of the factory Gongyu Huatian, and at the same time played the second role, and also played the wind knife.

No wonder Qin Gang said that he has a lot of roles, one person plays two roles, and it is strange that there are not many scenes.

"Playing a eunuch?"

To be honest, it's a bit of a diaphragm.

Ding Xiu has not played a eunuch before, Lin Pingzhi is, but it was to make money back then, to be honest, pinching the orchid finger in the film, talking is girly, quite uncomfortable.

Qin Gang said earnestly: "Brother Xiu, there are the most scenes in Longmen Feijia, and the most brilliant roles are Yuhuatian and Zhao Huai'an, Zhao Huai'an is exclusive to Li Lianjie, and the only thing I can give you is Yuhuatian, this role is quite difficult." ”

"I think it's good to not only retain your kung fu characteristics, but also subvert your previous character image."

"The most important thing is that there is Li Lianjie to match you, this is a row, no matter how many people want it, you can't think about this wave of box office."

While frowning and flipping through the script, Ding Xiu asked Qin Gang: "The plot is not much different from the Dragon Gate Inn, the audience's sense of expectation will be reduced, why did Li Lianjie fry this kind of cold rice?" ”

He did this kind of thing once, that is, the prequel of Baolian Lantern, and the film gave too much at that time.

Qin Gang said: "Li Lianjie has set up a foundation, and he is notoriously short of money, so he probably wants to make more money." ”

is nearly fifty years old, and he can't shoot for a few years, plus he lacks money, so it seems normal to make a few more dramas at this age, even if it is for young people, as long as he can make money.

Ding Xiu nodded: "That's it, but this script is average, and the cast is bluffing." ”

One Li Lianjie, one he, the two combined, the lineup is already the top match.

The front page of the script also comes with a list of actors that have been finalized, including actress Zhou Xun and popular singer Li Yuchun.

This lineup is eye-catching enough.

The director of this play is still Xu Laomo, and he is also a famous director.

Although the script is not very good, with this lineup and the strength of Xu Laomo, Ding Xiu can't act if he wants to.

Putting down the script of the Dragon Gate Flying Armor, Ding Xiu picked up another script.

"New World."

"Korean movies?"

Opening the script, Ding Xiu saw a string of Korean on the front page, followed by Chinese.

Looking at it, Ding Xiu found that something was wrong: "Isn't this Infernal Affairs?" ”

Qin Gang showed a playful smile: "You take a closer look." ”

Ding Xiu continued to read, and finally knew why Qin Gang sent this script over, the male protagonist is undercover, but it is different from Chen Yongren in Infernal Affairs.

This undercover agent became the boss, and finally killed the top boss.

Cow Pie!

"There's something interesting about this script."

Infernal Affairs is the pinnacle of Hong Kong films, with numerous awards, but it is still a little aggrieved to watch, and the good people in it are too miserable.

Especially Chen Yongren, who gave up a lot for the task, his girlfriend in love was unwilling to be with him, and he didn't let her call her father when she had a daughter.

paid so much, but in the end he died at gunpoint.

It's tragic.

The script of New World is different, although the male protagonist is undercover in the setting, his boss is not kind at all, and he has threatened him many times for promotion.

On the contrary, the eldest brother in the club was very good to him.

He was unwilling to kill him even though he knew he was undercover.

On the one hand, he is a big brother who values love and righteousness, and on the other hand, he is a boss who uses him as a stepping stone, and he is a normal person who knows how to choose.

Then the male protagonist turned black.,After the death of the eldest brother.,First participate in the election of the museum.,Kill other competitors.,And then kill the boss.,Let your information disappear completely.。

Compared with the rain field of Longmen Feijia, this script of the new world is more interesting, the character is rich in heart, a man with three positive views and full of justice slowly blackened, and finally became a big man.

It's challenging to look at.

Ding Xiu asked: "Dragon Gate Flying Armor, New World, which schedule is ahead?" ”

Qin Gang smiled stupidly: "Brother Xiu, the bad news hasn't been said yet, it's just that these two scenes collide, and you can only choose one of the two." ”

Ding Xiu frowned: "How about the salary of the two dramas?" ”

Judging from the script, he is more inclined to the new world, but if the salary of Longmen Feijia is too much, it is not impossible for him to play another eunuch.

Come out and mix just the rice, not chilling.

"Dragon Gate Flying Armor, 25 million salary, New World, 1 billion."

"How much?" After Qin Gang finished speaking, Ding Xiu plucked out his ears.

"One billion, you heard it right, and I didn't say it wrong, but it's Korean won, and it's more than five million on our side."

"Damn!"

Ding Xiu pouted.

If there is really one billion, let alone acting undercover, he will go to the sea to shoot woolen films, and he will collect the mountain in one wave, and he will not be an actor in the future, and he will not be able to spend more than one billion in his life.

"Is the salary of actors in South Korea so low?"

Qin Gang smiled bitterly: "The salary of actors over there is already low, and one billion is already the top." ”

This price, in the mainland, is also the price of second-tier actors, in the mainland, the salaries of first-line movie actors are now more than 10 million.

"In fact, the salary of actors in South Korea is also scary, not less than ours, but it was hit later, and there are relevant regulations that the salary of actors cannot exceed a certain percentage of the total budget."

"That's why their film industry has grown so rapidly over the years."

South Korea's entertainment industry is no simpler than that of the mainland.

There are more chaebols over there, and they play more than the mainland.

Once an artist was tied up by the company to make money, and the salary was called a horror.

Later, the development of events was too exaggerated, and the prosperity was bound to decline, and under the policies of the relevant departments, the salary was greatly reduced, so that it is what it is now.

Of course, there is one reason why Korean entertainment can develop into what it is today, that is, the director dares to shoot.

Anyone who has watched Korean movies knows how big the scale is.

There are no restrictions on the subject matter, and the director is free to play, so there are many good films.

For example, in the new world this time, undercover agents killed their bosses and competitors, and these plots are impossible to pass the trial in the mainland.

But in South Korea, you can, the director is blatantly black, cough cough, shoot.

Looking at the two scripts, Ding Xiu scolded: "Damn, this is a bit difficult to choose." ”

But if the salary of the new world is a little higher, or the script of Longmen Flying Armor is a little better, he is not so entangled.

It's just that you can't have both, one script is good, but the salary is low, and the other is not so good, but the salary is high.

Qin Gang pondered and said, "I suggest you choose the new world. ”

Ding Xiu raised his head: "What do you say?" ”

"The salary of Longmen Feijia is high, and the script can be filmed, but the upside is limited, to put it bluntly, it is just the icing on the cake for you, the new world is different, this is a Korean movie, once you star in it, you can open the Korean market."

"Over the years, you have been spinning around in China, you have reached the top, it is difficult to make a breakthrough, it's time to go abroad and make a name for yourself, let's not talk about dominating Hollywood, as long as you can gain a firm foothold in the Asian market, it is enough to blow for a lifetime."

There is no doubt that Ding Xiu is very popular in China, no one knows it, no one knows it, even if you don't know him, you have more or less watched the TV series and movies he starred in.

But once he leaves the country, how many people know about him?

Very few.

The reason is that he rarely works with foreign actors.

This new world is a good opportunity, with Ding Xiu's appearance and popularity, if he goes to South Korea, he will definitely be able to make a world.

Once successful, his career will blossom in the future, and his income will not know how many times it will increase.

The salary of Korean actors is small, but the endorsement fee is large, and many top brands are over there, and those big companies are not shabble at all.

Pinching his chin, Ding Xiu didn't reply, his eyes looked at the two scripts on the table, and began to weigh the pros and cons, thinking about which one to play.

A few minutes later, he picked up the script of the new world.

"That's it."

Qin Gang smiled: "I'll go and contact the producer over there." ”

There are pros and cons to the two scripts, and Ding Xiu supports either one he chooses, otherwise he wouldn't bring both scripts.

Dante was even more pleased that he could choose the new world.

The thirty-one-year-old Ding Xiu still has a long future, and going abroad and going international now is undoubtedly a huge boost to his career.

has been spinning in China all his life, and he can only play a supporting role for Li Lianjie's top bosses all his life.

……

The New World crew moved quickly, and the contract, the script, didn't take long to send it over.

In the contract, Ding Xiu himself also has requirements, that is, he cannot ask for leave for no reason, and try his best to meet the director's requirements, and the most difficult thing is for him to read the script.

Well, not only his script, but also the opponent's actors' to read.

Because he doesn't know Korean.

Although the crew did not ask him to learn Korean, if he didn't memorize the lines of the rival actors, the language would be incomprehensible, and you wouldn't know what people were saying, and he would still act as a chicken feather.

Similarly, the rival actor also has to memorize his lines.

Taking one person's salary and doing two people's work, Ding Xiu was speechless, isn't this bullying an honest person?

Is he capable?

Immediately asked Qin Gang to reply, and he had to add money.

After some negotiations, the salary was set at 7 million, and Ding Xiu signed the contract.

After Ding Xiu rejected the Longmen Feijia crew, Longmen Feijia quickly looked for actors, and finally the role of Yuhuatian fell on Chen Kun's head.

First, the ancient costumes look feminine and very factory, and secondly, the price is very cheap.

For this role, Chen Kun promised not to play the show, and joined the group to practice swords two months in advance, and the salary was even the price of cabbage, which was so cheap that people couldn't believe it

Chen Kun, who has just been an actor, is still quite popular, and his popularity is high, and this time he starred at the price of cabbage, just for an opportunity.

After auditions and outfits, after thinking about it again and again, the producer finally finalized him.

At the same time, the Spring Festival movie ended.

The box office of the embroidered spring knife is 380 million.

There are 34 million people in embarrassment.

Avatar 1300 million, well, dollars.

is different from Embroidered Spring Knife, People in Embarrassment, and other Spring Festival movies, although the Spring Festival file is over, Avatar is not released, but is still on the daily film list.

Looks like we'll have a few more rounds to catch.

The theater's notice is to continue playing, delaying the screening.

I don't know how long the delay will be.

But no one will let go of this cornucopia, and the Avatar, who makes money every day, is the hen that lays eggs, or the golden eggs.

You must be able to squeeze as long as you can, until you can't make any money.

In March, when the spring flowers were blooming, Ding Xiu quietly left Beiping and got on a plane to South Korea, with two bodyguards and an assistant by his side.
