Chapter 261: Ip Man
Wu Jing did not immediately answer Zhang Yuxuan whether to accept the invitation or not.
In fact, Wu Jing also has his own ambitions, otherwise he would not have gone to Xiangjiang when the mainland was popular, and in the end it was tepid, and his original popularity was almost about to dissipate.
Wu Jing's ambition is to become the second Li Lianjie, but unfortunately, he not only failed, but also failed miserably.
But before, Wu Jing, with the help of Zhang Yuxuan, became his own director and made a movie, so he wanted to see if his movie could be successful.
In case his wolf tooth is a big success, the result is naturally needless to say, he will take off directly, and he will naturally not join Zhang Yuxuan's small studio at that time.
Or, even if he would agree to join Zhang Yuxuan's personal studio, the conditions for joining would be different at that time.
As for the failure of the movie that was made with money, the failure is probably what it is now, after all, he is already bad enough, and no matter how bad the movie is, it is not much worse than now.
Wu Jing's thoughts, Zhang Yuxuan also had points in his heart, so he didn't care.
After all, Zhang Yuxuan didn't think about opening his own studio now.
Personal studio, how can it be dragged back.
At least Fan Xiaobing's personal studio needs to be more stable.
Otherwise, Fan Xiaobing's personal studio has not been completely stabilized, and Zhang Yuxuan will open another personal studio here, and maybe others will start to encircle and suppress Zhang Yuxuan.
Although with Zhang Yuxuan's capital, he also felt that he would not lose in the face of encirclement and suppression, but after all, it was trouble.
And after Zhang Yuxuan finished filming the painted skin, he didn't plan to rest much, or he didn't plan to rest for too long, and he was about to start preparing for the next film.
After all, Zhang Yuxuan's current fame and popularity, as long as Zhang Yuxuan is willing, he can stay in the crew almost 365 days a year, every day, and he doesn't have to worry about not being able to receive a good drama at all, or even not being able to receive a good drama at all.
And after a short break after Zhang Yuxuan finished filming the painted skin, he is now being trained by a Wing Chun master. Because the next movie Zhang Yuxuan wants to make is "'Night Question'".
Although it is said that he is going to shoot 'Night Question', Zhang Yuxuan needs to undergo a period of martial arts practice for at least half a month.
Zhang Yuxuan needs to practice Wing Chun well during this time.
Of course, in half a month, Zhang Yuxuan's practice of Wing Chun is also a routine and a showcase. Fortunately, Zhang Yuxuan followed Wang Baoqiao's kung fu before, and he didn't let go much, and his physical fitness was not bad, so in half a month, he learned the routines of Wing Chun, and Zhang Yuxuan practiced well.
Zhang Yuxuan stood in front of the wooden pile in the posture of a two-word clamp sheep and horse, with his hands in front of and behind him, and then began to play a set of wooden pile kung fu that looked quite stylish.
Zhang Yuxuan's palms, arms, and elbows touched the wooden stake, making a snapping sound.
It looks like bells and whistles, and some laymen may really stick out their thumbs and say that they played well.
Of course, this is also in the eyes of laymen, but in the eyes of real martial arts practitioners, Zhang Yuxuan's wooden stake is barely beaten, almost to the extent that it can fool people.
But for filmmaking, this level is almost enough.
"Mr. Zhang, the heat of the Wing Chun you played is almost the same, and the level is completely sufficient for filming." The master who taught Zhang Yuxuan to play Wing Chun smiled with a face, and his expression looked quite kind.
The main reason is that Zhang Yuxuan gives a lot of money.
In these years, kung fu or something, just like that, although the public also likes to watch kung fu movies or TV series, but there are not many people who can really practice martial arts, and even if they practice martial arts, more people are practicing taekwondo, or sanda, not many people practice traditional kung fu, not to mention small southern boxing like Wing Chun, these days, not many people in the north have heard of it.
(Before the filming of the movie 'Night Question', not many people really knew about Wing Chun.) Even if you know Li Xiaolong, you only know Jeet Kune Do, at least around the author, before the release of "Night Question" in 08, few people knew about Wing Chun. )
So to be invited by Zhang Yuxuan to come over to teach Wing Chun, this Wing Chun master is still very happy, and even when facing Zhang Yuxuan, he has maintained a very kind attitude from beginning to end, for fear that if he does not perform well, he will be dismissed by Zhang Yuxuan.
After all, when he came to teach Zhang Yuxuan to box, Zhang Yuxuan gave a lot of money. In the future, he can even say that he has taught Zhang Yuxuan Wing Chun to gain a certain popularity, and then recruit more apprentices. It's like some weight loss doctors who have the reputation of guiding a certain celebrity to lose weight successfully are a concept.
"In other words, I can leave the school now?" Zhang Yuxuan said with a smile, wiping the sweat on his face with a towel.
"Out of the teacher - that, well, you can be out of the teacher, but this punch, you have to practice often, as the saying goes, don't punch for a day......"
"Well, I know, I'm just kidding. And I'm also an actor, so I need to use some moves and routines when filming. As for the so-called teacher, it's just a joke. Zhang Yuxuan looked at the appearance of this boxing master and couldn't help but shake his head.
Sure enough, money is really important.
A boxer who has practiced boxing since he was a child, in the face of a star like himself who can be paid, is cautious in everything, as if he is afraid that he will have an opinion on him.
"Hehehe, in fact, you are still very talented, among the people I have taught over the years, your talent is definitely at the forefront, but after all, you are a star, and you don't have much time to learn and contact, and your talent is just going to be wasted." The master of the boxing department said with a regretful face, with a serious look, as if Zhang Yuxuan was really a legendary martial arts wizard.
Zhang Yuxuan didn't take it to heart about the words of the boxing master, he just smiled a little, and it was enough to make his mood happy.
Zhang Yuxuan's Wing Chun boxing is almost learned, or the routines are almost learned, and he began to set off to the crew of 'Night Question'.
But when it comes to the drama 'Night Question'.
The director, producer, and even screenwriter of 'Night Question' are all from the other side of the Xiangjiang River.
Originally, Zhang Yuxuan was reluctant to take on this play. After all, Zhang Yuxuan really doesn't have a good impression of the people on the other side of the Xiangjiang River.
It's just that Zhang Yuxuan thought of the movie 'Night Question', if he didn't act, maybe he would return to Zhen Dan's hands.
In addition, the filming location of the movie "Night Question" is the mainland. One is Foshan in Guangdong Province, and the other is placed in the magic capital.
Zhang Yuxuan does not need to go to Xiangjiang.
And then the series of movies in the 'Night Question' series is not bad, or rather. After all, there are still very few movies that can be made into a series, let alone a kung fu movie.
In fact, when the movie script was just written, Huang Baiming, as a producer, was Li Lianjie at the beginning.
After all, when it comes to kung fu movies, especially the kung fu grandmaster with the image of a great hero and grandmaster in the national period, Li Lianjie will definitely not let people play, or in other words, if Li Lianjie is brought into the image of 'Night Question', he will not feel that he is inappropriate at all.
Even if Zhang Yuxuan, who has passed through from later generations and has already seen Zhen Bullet's version of 'Night Question', and then deducts Li Lianjie's image from 'Night Question', he will not feel out of harmony, and the preconceived concept seems to have no effect at all in this regard.
It's just that although Li Lianjie is definitely suitable for playing 'Night Question', Li Lianjie is an international superstar, what is his salary? 30 million US dollars.
Even if it is a friendship price, Li Lianjie has to pay a salary of 100 million yuan to be reasonable.
In addition to Li Lianjie, Fang Shilong is also an international superstar and a kung fu superstar, even if his style is witty and humorous, which is not suitable for the image of 'Night Ask', but if you want to invite him, the same salary is not low.
Therefore, Huang Baiming began to remove the leading actor from Li Lianjie and began to look for other actors.
First of all, there are suitable actors in Xiangjiang, after all, the kung fu actors in Xiangjiang are far more than those in the mainland.
In fact, the first thing Huang Baiming thought of was Zhen Bullet.
In addition to Li Lianjie and Long, Huang Baiming's first thought was Zhen Bullet.
After all, even if Zhen Dan is not very famous now, he has also acted in movies like the fuse.
It's just that when Huang Baiming wanted to find Zhen Bullet, he found that Zhen Bullet was not in Xiangjiang at all, not even in the mainland, and he went abroad.
And then inquire a little - the entertainment industry is so big. The matter of Zhen Bullet, the news of running away directly during filming also fell into the hands of Huang Baiming.
Good guy, Zhen Dan's move is definitely not something that any director will like.
As a result, Zhen Bullet was excluded by Huang Baiming.
The situation of Zhen Bullet entered Huang Baiming's field of vision, and Huang Baiming naturally knew about the movie Painted Skin, and along with it, Zhang Yuxuan's figure also appeared in Huang Baiming's field of vision.
Then, Zhang Yuxuan, the leading actor of the domestic movie box office champion!
Zhang Yuxuan participated in several movies, and the box office was very good. Then, Zhang Yuxuan has filmed a lot of TV series, most of which are martial arts TV series, and the ratings are also very high.
In addition, in the past few years in the mainland, the box office of movies has been soaring, and Huang Baiming naturally looks at the box office in the mainland and wants to push his movies to the mainland, so he doesn't want to think about it, just like directly setting Zhang Yuxuan.
Later, after Huang Baiming discussed with director Ye Weixin and screenwriter Huang Ziheng, director Ye Weixin directly agreed with Huang Baiming's idea without saying a word. And screenwriter Huang Ziheng, after a period of hesitation, thought of Zhang Yuxuan's ability to drive the box office of the movie, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.
The main problem is the box office.
No one wants a movie that they participate in hit the streets.
Of the so many movies Zhang Yuxuan has participated in, almost none of them have failed, which already shows Zhang Yuxuan's ability to pull the box office.
If Charlotte is still embarrassed by her troubles, and Zhang Yuxuan's movie is a comedy, then the movie of the young you is not a comedy. But this movie also has a box office of 300 million.
Don't say anything else about luck, background, etc.
A movie succeeds, that's a coincidence. The success of two movies is shit luck, but what about three? What about the four? It's all luck.
In order to be able to win more movie box office and make more money, and at the same time, to be able to beat the fame of Wing Chun and 'Night Question'! Even the investor raised his hands and agreed to invite Zhang Yuxuan to play the role of 'Night Question'.
By the way, the investor of this movie actually has the disciples of 'Night Question' in it, and it is also to promote 'Night Question' and Wing Chun boxing to bring greater benefits to themselves, so the movie "Night Question" exists.
……
"Finally met the real person, well, more handsome than in the movie!" Huang Baiming smiled, looking at Zhang Yuxuan, and greeted Zhang Yuxuan very warmly.
"Director Huang, you have won the award, but I grew up watching your movies, so after knowing that I could cooperate with you, I didn't say a word, and directly agreed." Zhang Yuxuan said polite words and complimented Huang Baiming.
When Huang Baiming heard Zhang Yuxuan's words, even if he didn't know whether it was true or not, he was still very happy in his heart. At least Zhang Yuxuan seems to respect him as a director on the surface.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect my old face to have a bit of face."
"That's pretty face-saving."
"Hahaha, but this time, I'm just a producer, after all, I'm so old. This time, the director is Ye Weixin, who is also a very powerful director. Come on, let me introduce you, this is director Ye Weixin, and this is our famous Zhang Yuxuan. Huang Baiming introduced with a smile.
"Hello hello, it's a pleasure to work with you." Ye Weixin took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Zhang Yuxuan.
"Director Ye, it's also my dream to be able to cooperate with you, I like the movie "The Three Heroines of the Wind and Dust" filmed by Director Ye, as well as "Carmen in Mong Kok", "Juliet and Liang Shanbo", "Fuse", "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and other movies, I have watched it more than once." Zhang Yuxuan grabbed Ye Weixin's hand and gave him a compliment appropriately.
And Zhang Yuxuan said that he has indeed watched these movies many times.
Zhang Yuxuan's words made Ye Weixin smile happily.
Regardless of whether Zhang Yuxuan really likes it or not, at least Zhang Yuxuan's previous work has been done well.
"Xuan Zai, come on, let me introduce you, this is Huang Liang, the eldest disciple of the 'Night Question' grandmaster, this time we filmed a movie, many details in the script were told by Huang Liang, it is because of these details that our script is so perfect and so excellent." Huang Baiming introduced others to Zhang Yuxuan.
Huang Liang had a polite smile on his face, and his eyes looked Zhang Yuxuan up and down.
To be honest, Huang Liang is extremely satisfied with Zhang Yuxuan's image, after all, Zhang Yuxuan is so handsome, playing his master will never lower his master's image......
