The fire of the "Masked Singer" program made Mo Jianwen and Wang Jiangyu, as directors, suddenly feel angry.

Especially Wang Jiangyu, when "The Strongest Voice at the Peak" was on the air, many people actually questioned his qualifications.

Or it is the so-called connections that make the show work.

But this time in "The Masked Singer", he and Mo Jianwen actually undertake the same amount of work, and both of them are indispensable.

At the same time, because of this cooperation, although Wang Jiangyu still looked at Mo Jianwen unpleasantly, he felt that the smell of businessmen on the other party was too heavy.

But at least I don't communicate with emotions, and I have changed a lot of my previous views.

Although Mo Jianwen seems to be mercenary, his ability is still extremely strong, and he is not so useless.

Including various marketing after the show was broadcast, although it didn't seem to have a great effect, it still helped the popularity of "The Masked Singer" to a lot of levels.

But now both of them are facing the same trouble, that is, too many people in the industry rely on connections to find them.

Want to ask who the Facelings really are.

With the current popularity of the Faceling, by the day he is unveiled, even if he is just an amateur, he is likely to directly become a quasi-first-line singer.

To be able to sign someone before this is to pick up a big bargain.

Even the three had the same idea and sent someone to find them.

But it is obviously impossible for the two to tell each other's true identities.

After all, these people just have a relatively strong background in the final analysis, and their relationship with them is not very good.

In the end, it really leaked out, which was also a big blow to this show.

What's more, Mo Jianwen looked at these people who came to find him, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

He knew exactly who the Facelings were.

If you change the singer, in fact, the terms of these big companies signing promises are good, and it is also an opportunity.

But the Faceless Man is Xu Ji, and Mo Jianwen didn't even have the idea of conveying the contract proposed by the other party.

Xu Ji is not a simple singer or songwriter, but he is the boss of the company.

And the current scale of Tongji Entertainment is relatively large in the entertainment industry, except for the three major ones, most of the other companies can't compare.

Xu Ji, who is the boss himself, can't think about it to become an artist under other companies.

"Let's skip eating."

"You help me convey it to the other party, but we can't actually do anything about it."

"By the way, let out the news, they don't have to think about the Faceling's contract, it's basically impossible, he has no intention of signing with the company."

Hearing what his assistant said, Mo Jianwen directly refused.

By the way, I also plan to release the news, so that these sharks in the entertainment industry who seem to smell blood can loosen their mouths as soon as possible, so as not to collapse their teeth in the end.

But Mo Jianwen obviously didn't notice the ambiguity in what he said just now.

After the assistant passed on those words, a bunch of capital not only did not dispel the previous thoughts, but became even more excited.

Because according to Mo Jianwen's words, the faceling is likely to be really an amateur and has no intention of signing a company.

Although it is indeed difficult to recruit such a person, as long as sufficient conditions are promised, there is no chance.

Soon it came out that a medium-sized entertainment company said that as long as the Facelings signed a contract with their company, their company would give away 20% of the shares!

This crazy energy can be seen.

......

Of course, as the initiator, that is, Xu Ji of the Faceling, he was in no mood to pay attention to these gossip at this time.

After the formation of the crew during this time, Xu Ji also began to embark on the road of finding actors.

Xu Ji took several assistant directors and some main creators of the crew and flew directly to Hong Kong City.

This is the third time Xu Ji has come to Hong Kong City.

The first time was to take the initiative to find Wei Yifa, and the second time was because of the filming and framing problems of "Wushuang".

And this time, it is estimated that I will stay in this place for a long time in the future.

In fact, Xu Ji still has some well-known names in Hong Kong City.

After all, the current port city's own industry is declining, whether it is music or film and television, it is completely incomparable with the original peak.

Many people in Hong Kong actually go to watch dramas or variety shows in the mainland, and even the box office of mainland movies in Hong Kong is higher than that of some Hong Kong films.

So after Xu Ji got off the plane, he was still recognized by some people.

The young people in Hong Kong City are actually chasing stars, and many young girls are so excited that they can't do it after seeing Xu Ji.

Xu Ji was not in a hurry this time, and signed for more than ten minutes before politely rejecting the people behind him and leaving.

found the hotel he had booked to stay in, and Xu Ji soon went out alone.

I think when I first met Wei Yifa, I was still in the other party's company.

And now the relationship between the two is no longer so formal, so Xu Ji came to Wei Yifa's house.

Wei Yifa, as an international actor of the older generation, must have made a lot of money.

Although the other party's current company does not seem to be very prosperous, it is unlikely to lose money by relying on his connections.

But the place where Wei Yifa lived did surprise Xu Ji, it turned out to be an old building in Hong Kong City that looked quite old.

"I'm used to living here, the environment may be a little worse, Director Xu don't mind."

After Xu Ji entered the door, Wei Yifa spoke.

In fact, Xu Ji also understands this approach, although many people are developed, they still remember the days of struggle.

I didn't think anything of it was wrong.

And although this building looks very old from the outside, it seems to be a building from an old movie in Port City.

But the inside is clearly refurbished, and even the elevator has been added.

It's just that Xu Ji is a little curious, Wei Yifa, such a well-known actor, won't it be a little troublesome to live in such a place?

Neighbors around or something.

"Oh, a nuisance indeed."

"So I bought all of this building."

Wei Yi replied casually.

Xu Ji: ......

This really seems like the best way to solve the problem.

......

"Director Xu, this time I came to Hong Kong City, I'm afraid it's not just to catch up with me, right?"

Eating the dishes cooked by Wei Yifa himself, Wei Yifa didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly.

Xu Ji didn't hide the other party's plans, and directly told his plans.

"Helping you find an actor?"

Wei Yi was stunned for a moment, this was actually not a difficult thing for him.

On the side of Hong Kong City, with his connections and status, it seems that it is okay to help Xu Ji introduce any kind of actor.

"Long Zewei and Wu Zijian."

"And ......"

Xu Ji crackled and said a lot of names, Wei Yifa actually thought that maybe they were some actors he didn't know.

But after all of them stopped, I realized that most of the people inside knew each other.

Basically, they are the best actors in Port City.

What's more critical is that the other party first reported the names of the two actors, and the two of them are actually similar to his status and achievements.

However, Wei Yifa was actually prepared, if it was an ordinary actor, Xu Ji didn't need to come to him specifically.

"I can help you make an appointment to try it, but I'm not sure if it can be done."

"Ah Jian is actually fine, there should be no problem, I mentioned you to him before, and he is quite interested in you."

"But Zewei is not necessarily, that guy doesn't care too much about the salary, but the quality requirements for the script are still quite high."

"If the script isn't interesting, even if I speak, it's useless."

......

Wei Yifa said sincerely.

He actually wanted to help Xu Ji with this.

Because some of the artists of his own company have developed in the mainland, they have indeed received the help of Xu Ji Company.

is like the recently popular "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", in which Zhou Xun is an actor under Wei Yifa's company.

Although this actor has relied on his unaccented Mandarin to get some roles before, he has always been tepid.

This time, the drama "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" obviously took the other party's career a step further.

Although Wei Yifa didn't say much thanks, as an older generation of Hong Kong City actors, he still remembered this feeling.

"By the way, is there a role that would be a good fit for me?"

Wei Yifa asked.

Xu Ji was not surprised that the other party would ask himself like this, and replied:

"Yes, there is, but this character is a supporting character in it......"

Some of the movies before Wei Yifa basically starred in them, and few played supporting roles.

But he did wave his hand indifferently.

"It's okay, it's mostly okay if I'm idle right now."

"If you don't have many scenes, you just have to watch the salary and give it."

"It's kind of acting for your friendship."

......

Long Zewei has not acted much since he won a lot of actors with a literary film three years ago.

It's not because he doesn't want to act, his age is actually much younger than Wei Yifa and others.

He is still far from retirement age.

It's just that I haven't been able to meet a good script.

Long Zewei is actually Ning Que's mother's character, especially after he became more and more famous, it became even more obvious.

Even if it is an invitation from some old friends, if you don't like it very much after reading the script, you will still decisively refuse.

Of course, this is talking about the starring role, a role with more scenes.

Some of them have a cameo or something, but they can still invite people.

"Xu Ji?"

Long Zewei is actually relatively unfamiliar with this name.

seems to be the director of the previous "Wushuang", who is not very old, but his ability seems to be good.

Long Zewei was a little disdainful of qualifications or anything, mainly because Xu Ji had good results.

Otherwise, even if there was Wei Yifa's invitation, he would probably still consider refusing.

Anyway, you don't have to think much about such a dinner, and you can basically confirm that he was invited to star in the other party's new movie.

But if it's Xu Ji, it's worth looking forward to.

Although the drama "Wushuang" has some commercial attributes in it, it is still passable in terms of quality.

Maybe the other party can really come up with a script that interests you?

Of course, because of some previous experiences, although Long Zewei had some expectations, he was more prepared to politely refuse.

......

In the past few days in Hong Kong City, Wei Yifa took Xu Ji to meet many people.

Most of them were people he had seen in movies when he was in junior high school.

These people were all named and asked to be seen by Xu Ji, and they were naturally carefully selected.

But even so, the follow-up audition session is still needed.

Xu Ji just tried to choose some actors who were similar to the characters in his memory, but whether they were suitable or not was not necessarily.

Speaking of which, most of these actors actually belong to the category of golden supporting roles.

But in terms of acting skills, he can definitely be regarded as the best in the glorious era of Hong Kong City.

But what is a little embarrassing is that in fact, many people have become useless after the decline of the Hong Kong film market.

Some people even went to the mainland to play supporting roles in some small-cost, shoddy online movies.

Make money by relying on a face from the audience's childhood memories.

The original Hong Kong films were so brilliant, and these people must have made money.

But because of advanced consumption or spending lavishly, etc., the current economic situation is actually not very good.

Even some actors who did not have difficulties in this regard agreed without the slightest hesitation after seeing the script that Xu Ji came up with.

Everything seems to be going very well.

However, Xu Ji is very clear, in fact, I have seen some actors who are not so big before.

Originally, it was not very difficult to invite participants.

The most critical two are the two actors Wu Zijian and Long Zewei who will meet next.

The fame and status of the two are actually similar to Wei Yifa.

How to win these two talents is the key.

However, what made Xu Ji a little helpless was that after reading the script for Wei Yifa, the other party seemed more active than him.

even recommended some more suitable candidates to Xu Ji.

"Director Xu, don't worry, it's absolutely fine!"

"Even if Zewei is so difficult, I'm sure he will agree after reading the script!"

In this way, under Wei Yifa's active arrangement, Xu Ji met two actors who he had seen in various movies and was very familiar with him.

......

"This is Xu Ji Xu Dao, don't look young, but I'm sure that the future is definitely the material of the international director."

At the time of the introduction, Wei Yifa gave Xu Ji a very high evaluation.

Long Zewei was actually a little surprised, in his opinion, although Wei Yifa had cooperated with Xu Ji, maybe the relationship was okay.

But Wei Yifa has worked with so many directors that he can make the other party give such a high evaluation, and he is still so young, only Xu Ji is the only one.

As for the other actor Wu Zijian, he was not surprised at all.

He is currently the best developed of the three in the mainland, and has a lot of cooperation with almost all three of them.

Released this year alone, he starred in two or three movies produced by mainland companies.

So there is no need for Wei Yifa to introduce, he also knows who Xu Ji is.

The other party's fame in the mainland entertainment industry is quite big.

And Xu Ji himself has his own company in addition to his identity as a director.

So you can't just look at the young man in front of you as a simple director, who looks a little more handsome than when he was young.

"Hello two teachers, I'm your fan, I can see a real person today!"

Xu Ji said.

The three of them shook hands politely, which can be regarded as acquaintance.

The four of them chatted with each other.

Soon the food came up, and the place was set by Wei Yifa, a Hong Kong-style side stove shop with a full sense of age, which is said to have been open for more than 30 years.

While eating, Wei Yifa also said the purpose of meeting the two this time.

"Actually, this time, Jo Ajian and Zewei don't have any other purpose, that is, Director Xu's new movie wants to invite you, so let me be an introducer."

"Let me say first, after reading the script, I originally wanted to be the leading actor, but Director Xu refused without hesitation, saying that the most suitable for these two roles is you."

In fact, Xu Ji knew that what Wei Yifa said just now had not happened.

But he naturally wouldn't say anything more, Wei Yifa's words were obviously flattering, and they were for his good.

For this incident, Wei Yifa can be regarded as doing his best.

Wu Zijian also replied with a smile at this time: "There is still such a thing? ”

"Brother Fa, you have said so, then I must agree!"

He knows Xu Ji's fame in the mainland, and he also knows Xu Ji's ability, and in fact, even if the quality of the script is slightly worse, he is unlikely to refuse if he can get acquainted with a young and promising director like Xu Ji, plus Wei Yifa's face.

However, Long Zewei hesitated for a while, but still said:

"Can you show me the script?"
