Chapter 81: Door-to-door
A middle-aged man sitting at the head of Zhang Yimou spoke, and he was very pure Gangpu: "Jiang Changsheng is very discussed now, our company has done a data survey, and he can now be said to be the most popular male star in the mainland."
OVERSEAS, JIANG'S NEWS IS STILL HOT, AND COMMERCIALLY SPEAKING, LOOKING FOR HIM TO STAR IN MOVIES CAN TAKE INTO ACCOUNT BOTH THE BOX OFFICE IN THE MAINLAND AND OVERSEAS, WHICH IS VERY PROFITABLE. ”
This person is Jiang Zhiqiang of Hong Kong Island Anle Company, the investor of Hero Films, this is a real boss in the Hong Kong circle, as soon as his words came out, Zhang Weipin's momentum weakened a lot.
Zhang Weipin was still a little unhappy, he glanced at Yu Guangqing, the vice president next to him, Yu Guangqing suddenly understood, and deliberately provoked: "Jiang Changsheng's appearance conditions are indeed very good."
Handsome and tall, he is magnificent, but there is one point, his height is too tall.
We have a lot of martial arts action in this movie, and I'm worried that he won't be up to the task. ”
Yu Guangqing is telling the truth, action stars who play well are generally not too tall.
Think about Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, and then Zhen Zidan, Wu Jing, who became famous in later generations, is not more than 175 tall.
There is a saying in the industry that martial arts stars are most suitable to be about 1.7 meters tall.
Because the body is high, the center of gravity is naturally high, and it is more difficult to make movement moves, and it is even more difficult to play beautifully.
Hearing what Yu Guangqing said, Cheng Xiaodong, who was sitting on the other side of Zhang Yi, said: "Jiang Changsheng's martial arts movements are no problem, Yuan Bin personally certified it." ”
Jiang Zhiqiang became interested: "How did Yuan Bin know Jiang Changsheng?" ”
Yuan Bin worked as an action director in the Xiaoao Jianghu crew, and Jiang Changsheng helped Xiaoao Jianghu write the theme song, so the two got acquainted.
According to what Yuan Bin said, Jiang Changsheng asked him for advice on martial arts routines, and he only taught it for five days, and Jiang Changsheng fought better than him.
Jiang Changsheng's talent in martial arts movements is once in a century, this is Yuan Bin's original words, with his personality, this statement is very credible. ”
"It's really not easy for tall people to practice martial arts routines well, but once someone can practice them well, the effect of the fight is absolutely outstanding."
Yu Guangqing had nothing to say, only Zhang Weipin was still indignant, "I just don't like Jiang Changsheng, I've never seen such an arrogant actor, ask him to be the starring role, and put forward so many conditions."
Why is he? ”
Li Lianjie, who had been sitting in his position and didn't speak, changed his face, he came to be the starring role, and he also put forward a few conditions, but it was not as excessive as Jiang Changsheng.
Zhang Weipin realized that he had said the wrong thing, and the atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.
Jiang Zhiqiang was the highest status among all the people present, he smiled and said: "Actually, Jiang Changsheng's conditions are not a problem at all, we can completely agree."
He only gave a three-month schedule, and the scene of the remnant sword was enough to finish filming, but only successively; As for the two supporting roles, they are also trivial matters, Director Zhang looked at it and arranged it.
This drama also has four leading roles, plus the two supporting roles of Changkong and Ruyue, which are more important, and the rest of the roles are not outstanding, so they will be given.
As for the last condition, it is easier to participate in only three promotional events.
Overseas propaganda will be in the name of Jiang Changsheng, but he himself does not have to appear. His image abroad is that of a genius who is not keen on fame and fortune.
Participating in the promotion of the movie will drop the grade, and it is better not to participate.
The three propaganda campaigns were all left in the country, which was basically enough. ”
Jiang Zhiqiang is worthy of being the big man of Hong Kong Island movies, and he dismantled Jiang Changsheng's conditions clearly in just a few words.
Zhang Yimou spoke again: "Actually, Jiang Changsheng's conditions are secondary, and he deliberately opened this condition, because he didn't want to appear in our movie."
To invite him to play, we have to show enough sincerity.
As far as I know, Jiang Changsheng is going to star in a costume romance drama that crosses the theme, and if we don't hurry up, he will join the group and start filming. ”
Zhang Yimou's words made the other five people on the scene look at each other, they have never seen such a strange thing as Jiang Changsheng, they don't want movies made by big directors and big productions, they have to run to act in TV series.
is still a very despised costume romance drama in the TV drama circle.
Li Lianjie sighed: "Sure enough, he was a genius who took the Grammys at the age of 18, and this brain circuit is not something that ordinary people can speculate." ”
When Jiang Changsheng returned to Yanjing, Ye Guobin drove him directly from the airport to the company.
There are a lot of people in the company today, Lu Yi and Liao Fan are there, Jiang Changsheng also saw Hu Jun and Cheng Kun, as well as Tao Hong, Sun Li and Qu Ying, Xiao Li Lin and other actresses.
Some people Jiang Changsheng met for the first time, Ye Guobin gave a brief introduction, and led him into the conference room.
There were four people in the conference room, and after Jiang Changsheng came, they all got up politely.
Jiang Zhiqiang, Zhang Yimou, Cheng Xiaodong plus Li Lianjie, this lineup is scary, no wonder many artists came to the company today.
After everyone got to know each other, Jiang Changsheng said: "Director Zhang, I thought we had a conversation last time, so I took over a TV series, and now there is really no schedule." ”
Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "Mr. Ye just said that the TV series you took was invested by your company, and the actor can be changed at any time."
Your company Lu Yi has a schedule to replace Ling as the male protagonist of the TV series. ”
Jiang Changsheng glared at Ye Guobin, Ye Guobin dodged, he was a little weak-hearted.
According to Ye Guobin's thoughts, of course Jiang Changsheng should play the hero movie, so he deliberately revealed to Zhang Yimou the information that Jiang Changsheng was going to take on the TV series.
also said that the male protagonist of this drama can be replaced at any time.
What Jiang Changsheng hates the most is that the agent makes his own opinion, and after the company gets bigger and bigger, Ye Guobin has more and more ideas of his own.
If this continues, the two will fall apart sooner or later.
Jiang Changsheng had no excuse to refuse at this time, so he could only agree.
"I can participate, but the conditions remain the same."
Four well-known bigwigs in the film industry came to invite, if Jiang Changsheng refused for no reason, it would be purely faceless.
Although he has no intention of mixing in the film industry, he has friends, lovers, and a company in the circle.
There is no need to offend people.
From the perspective of popularity, starring as a hero can get more attention from young people, but for older people, they still like to watch TV series.
To be honest, Jiang Changsheng sings love songs, writes about love and the Internet, and his fans and book fans are mainly young people, but in the middle-aged and elderly groups, he is not famous enough.
This is also the reason why he wants to act in more TV series.
And playing the role of a hero will make him brush his face overseas, which is contrary to his original idea.
But since he agreed, Jiang Changsheng would not hesitate, he quickly set a time with Zhang Yimou, and the movie started in early August.
Jiang Changsheng had to do action training and character experience at least a period of time in advance.
"As long as you're ready, I'll be able to train in three days."
After getting Jiang Changsheng's promise, Zhang Yimou and the others left satisfied.
