Chapter 16 Partnering with a Der
After a brief chat, Shen Xudong directly offered to say goodbye...
It's so expensive!
asked Chen Fala to go to the mainland to film, and it cost 100,000 yuan for one episode...
Neurotic, huh?
Tang Yan only has 20,000 yuan per episode, and Zeng Li has about 30,000 yuan.
It's no wonder that TVB actors rarely go to the mainland to film at this stage...
I really can't afford it...
Zhang Weijian's TVB actors at that time were very popular, and the scenes he filmed in the mainland were also very classic.
Because in those days, everyone didn't have much choice...
After the turn of the millennium, TVB actors have been renewed, and the mainland entertainment market has gradually caught up with Hong Kong.
Kwan Wing-ho, Cai Shaofen, Luo Jialiang, Li Caihua, Charmaine Sheh, Zhang Keyi, etc. have all come to the mainland to develop...
Except for Cai Shaofen and Li Caihua, the others did not leave any works.
Nowadays, mainland dramas are very mature, not only have a good production team, but the new generation of actors have also grown up, and there is no need for Hong Kong and Taiwan actors to make up the numbers!
You're still so expensive...
When the mainland market develops by leaps and bounds, it will be even more impossible for you to want to develop northward!
There are so many graduates of Chinese opera Beiying every year, why do you want to praise you?
Culture, language, background and even appearance are not as good as those small flowers and fresh meat in China.
……
"I can't see the situation clearly, and I feel invincible in the world... TVB has not been strong for a few years! ”
“… Not really. ”
"What's the pinnacle of TVB? 80-90s.
At that time, domestic television stations and film studios were not yet fully marketized. In the early days of reform and opening up, most of the TV dramas produced by mainland TV people were not commodities, but cultural artworks. To put it simply, it is not for ordinary people, but for leaders, and the main goal is to complete various tasks assigned by leaders.
Of course, TVB can beat mainland dramas!
Then, 97 returned, TVB in front of and behind the scenes, including actors, screenwriters, directors, producers, etc., opened a large-scale northbound money-making model, this period is the peak era of TVB in the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan TV people have a lofty status in the mainland, from actors to screenwriters and directors are condescending attitudes...
This has also cultivated their honey self-confidence - thousands of yuan per episode in TVB, and hundreds of thousands of episodes in the mainland.
Times have changed, and I don't even know it! ”
At the airport, Shen Xudong complained to Huang Bin about the wireless station, and muttered by the way: "I still like Chen Fala a a lot... Pity! ”
Huang Bin proposed: "... If you like her, we want to start the filming of "Splendid Relationship" and find her to play the heroine? ”
“… Still don't want it, "Splendid Relationship" is still left to Tang Yan... I heard that Chen Xi is going to sign a post-85 actress, who did she find? ”
Shen Xudong is still ambitious...
"I'm currently in contact with Zhang Hanyun..."
“… Sweet and sour one? ”
"Yes..."
Sweet and sour, have you tasted it or how to drip it?
Huang Bin wanted to complain, but... Zhang Hanyun is indeed famous for singing "Sweet and Sour is Me"...
"Take your time..."
Shen Xudong is not in a hurry, judging from his memory, his path is right, and all he needs is time.
It was still early, Shen Xudong simply took out a copy of "Zhang Ailing" from his bag and flipped through it...
Huang Bin was a little entangled, but still asked, "Mr. Shen, did you go to see Zhong Xintong yesterday?" ”
Shen Xudong nodded: "... Yes... Reported? ”
"Hmm."
"There's really a report, what did you say?"
"Let's just say that Gillian has a mysterious boyfriend..."
Shen Xudong was speechless: "... Ma Dan, don't you even report my name? ”
Mysterious boyfriend... It means that I don't know who this man is!
It's too much, doesn't you even deserve a name?
On second thought... At least it's certainly not the information provided by the paparazzi who had afternoon tea with him yesterday - he knows who Shen Xudong is!
Huang Bin glanced at "Zhang Ailing" in Shen Xudong's hand, and thought of something: "By the way, Mr. Shen, Director Li Amine wants to shoot Zhang Ailing, do you know?" ”
"You know, "Lust Caution"..."
"You say, will he ask you to be a screenwriter?"
Shen Xudong shook his head: "Impossible, he has his own team..."
Li Amine's queen screenwriter Wang Huiling.
"Then do you say Chen Hao has a chance?"
“… Don't be foolish, it's a tertiary film, the kind that fights fungi~"
"Huh? Why did Li amine make tertiary films? ”
“… How do I know? ”
……
Well, the news about Li Amine's new film is boiling, and the truth and falsehood make people dizzy, and this new film was originally called "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Prequel"...
What heroine locks Zhao Yanzi and Zhang Ziyi...
Later, it was rumored that it was not "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Prequel", but that the famous "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest" in the Wei and Jin dynasties would be put on the screen, and it was reported that this was also the first time that the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest" was made into a movie. ’
Until early April, Focus Pictures announced that Li Amine's next film will return to Chinese, which is a spy film called "Lust and Caution".
Ang Lee won the Oscar for Best Director for "Brokeback Mountain"...
Oscar-level attraction, few actors can ignore it.
When this project was not disclosed, in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, some brokerage companies took action together, and those female stars, big and small, were also like chicken blood, and the commotion was unbearable.
Even Chen Hao was very excited...
I also auditioned in the past, and then I was passed directly, the reason is very simple, Chen Hao is too charming and does not meet the requirements of liamine!
Back to "Zhang Ailing", Huang Bin asked again: "Then why did you watch "Zhang Ailing"? ”
"I wanted to try it before... It's too difficult, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will become a bloody plot! ”
Shen Xudong sighed...
Zhang Ailing is really difficult to shoot, I mean shoot well.
In terms of story structure, Zhang Ailing's is not difficult to shoot, but what is difficult is the kind of cold to cold temperament.
Her story itself is too suitable for dog blood. If you can't refine the kernel, it's the blood of the dog.
"Lust and Caution", in fact, whether it is the original book or the film, in the final analysis, this is just a story of a female agent seducing a traitor. It's just that the female agent finally pretended to be true, developed true feelings for the traitor and let the traitor go at a critical moment, burying her own life.
The reason why it is different is because Li Amine put Zhang Ailing's own experience on Wang Jiazhi - her parents divorced, her father went to the UK and remarried, and refused Wang Jiazhi's request to go to the UK for reunion on the grounds that she could not afford the travel expenses, but let her send someone under the fence at her aunt's house, which is actually Zhang Ailing's experience...
“… What now? ”
"It's good to watch, there's no need to make it, and we don't lack a movie by Eileen Chang!"
Huang Bin nodded, he didn't have any idea about Zhang Ailing, the reason why he was excited was more because of Li Amine, and changed the topic: "By the way, the list of judges for Cannes this year is out, Wang Jiawei is the chairman of the jury, and Zhang Ziyi is the judge!" "Carol" has a great chance! ”
Nonsense, of course there is a big chance ...
Shen Xudong smiled and remembered something: "Do we have any works exhibited in China?" ”
"There is only one "Summer Palace"..."
"Tsk, Lou Ye Zhen Nima Tou Tie!"
There are few newspapers mentioning "Summer Palace", and only some traces exist on the Internet.
So much so that many people don't know that there is this movie!
"Summer Palace" failed to pass the review twice, but Lou Ye just wanted to participate, and even broke up with the producer!
The producer is responsible for the investor, and if you go out to participate in the competition without passing the trial, you will be punished, not only the director, but also the investor, this is for those who have not obtained a filming permit, "Summer Palace" should have a shooting permit, but you go directly to the exhibition without permission...
Investors want to make money, take 10,000 steps back, don't make money, we have feelings, but you can finally show it publicly, right?
