Chapter 23, time, fate, and luck

After Zhang Zhen was sent to the hospital for diagnosis, a bad news came, the situation was not optimistic, and he had to be hospitalized after the operation, and if the recovery was fast, it would be three months, and the recovery would be slow for half a year.

What can I do?

Zhang Zhen's male number two has a lot of roles, the key is that Xin Zhuang is mainly filming him, so many people and machines, you can't wait, because you can't afford it, but if you go to shoot other scenes first, and then come back here, it will also cost you money to come back and go, and you have to reapply.

After Li An held a meeting to discuss, it was decided to replace him.

So the question is, for whom? And it's going to be negotiated and get here for filming within a week.

Li An first talked to several other actors who were originally scheduled to be on the phone, but either they had already answered the play, or they couldn't come within the required time.

At this time, Yuan Heping found him, and after learning that he still hadn't found an actor, he recommended Lu Bu to him.

"Your apprentice?"

"Yes, it's the young man who went to the filming location with me the day before yesterday."

"Oh, he's there."

Yuan Heping smiled indifferently and said: "He just acted in a drama adapted from the Gu Long novel directed by me, and he is also the second male lead, you have seen his appearance and figure, he was born in a martial arts team, and his skills are very good, hanging wires, equestrianism, and all kinds of fists and feet weapons are not a problem, as for acting skills, you can try him." ”

Li An recalled, taller than Zhang Zhen, more handsome than Zhang Zhen, with light wheat skin, strong but not fat, feeling okay, thinking for a moment, and replied: "Okay, then let him try the play, if it is appropriate, I will consider it." ”

Half an hour later, there was an open space outside the crew's station.

Lu Bu changed his costume, put on a wig, and turned into a beautiful man with an exotic style.

Li An's Luo Xiaohu designed for Zhang Zhen has a rough image, while Lu Bu is more like Luo Xiaohu in the original book, with a handsome appearance and a burly figure.

"Eighth master, Director Li, then I'll start."

"Let's get started."

Lu Bu turned over and pulled the reins with both hands, the horse instantly rose, and after a while, he clamped the horse's belly and drove the horse out with a sound of "driving".

On horseback, he has an inexplicable momentum and a heroic posture.

When he came back, Yuan Heping smiled and asked, "Director Li, do you need to test his kung fu?" ”

Li An waved his hand and said, "Since he is Director Yuan's apprentice, his kung fu will naturally not be bad." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Lu Bu, who had dismounted, although he didn't have the immaturity of his youth, but he still wanted Luo Xiaohu, who was a little rougher, so he asked, "Can you grow a beard?" ”

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Li An got an answer, and then pondered for a long time before saying to Yuan Heping, "It's him." ”

Yuan Heping was a little surprised and asked, "Don't watch his acting skills?" ”

Li An smiled and said, "It's okay with this. ”

In fact, the female No. 2 Zhang Ziyi is also a newcomer.

And she is not Yu Jiaolong's first choice, at first Li An's favorite was Shu Qi, but because he was strict, the main actors had to enter the group in advance to practice and play hard, accept devil training, and they couldn't roll the drama halfway, so they had to be distracted when they entered the group.

Anyway, they are all newcomers' acting skills, and there is not much difference between directing two and directing one.

In this way, Lu Bu picked up another leak.

It seems that these two times he played the second male lead was because of "Ma".

Could it be that Chitu is helping me?

Either way, it's good to have a play.

Return to your accommodation.

Zhang Jin came over for the first time and asked excitedly, "How is it?" Is it done? ”

He just saw that Lu Bu had changed his costume in front of Li An and Yuan Heping, and he had also ridden a horse and ran around, so he didn't have to guess, he must be trying out.

Lu Bu shook the document bag in his hand, smiled and said, "I got a role." ”

Zhang Jin exclaimed: "Cow! ”

You must know that "Xiao Li Flying Knife" cannot be compared with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in any aspect.

The latter invested $15 million, directed by the international director Li An, and will be released in Hollywood.

As long as you can play it, even if it is a small role, you will benefit a lot.

Lu Bu's luck was really amazing.

In addition to envy, Zhang Jin gossiped again: "By the way, how much salary did you give?" It must be more than the 4,000 yuan of "Xiao Li Flying Knife", right? ”

Lu Bu didn't speak, just stretched out three fingers.

Zhang Jin let out an "ah" and said, "3000." ”

Such a low salary? Although it takes longer to shoot a TV series than a movie, it is a Hollywood blockbuster.

And Lu Bu has also played the second male lead, and he is Yuan Heping's apprentice.

Is it because the role I received this time is a small supporting role?

Just as he was guessing, Lu Bu opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Add one more zero." ”

Zhang Jindeng exclaimed: "30,000? it. ”

This was so excited that Shuchuan's words came out.

You must know that it only took more than three months for Lu Bu to go from 6 or 70 yuan to 4,000 yuan, and now it is more than three months, and it has increased almost tenfold.

It's terrifying.

Lu Bu was very calm, shrugged his shoulders and said: "At first glance, it sounds like a lot, but compared with the original actor Zhang Zhen, it is very few." ”

Zhang Zhen debuted in 91, and his first movie "Juvenile Homicide on Guling Street" was nominated for Best Actor at the 28th Baodao Provincial Film Golden Horse Awards.

30,000 yuan is low for the second male lead in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but Li An thinks the price is very reasonable.

Because, in his heart, Zhang Zhen is still the best candidate, and it is a last resort to retreat, and agreeing to Lu Bu to play is giving Yuan Heping a favor.

Lu Bu also understands the rules of this industry, and fame is money.

So now as long as there is a play to find him, no matter how big or small the role is, just one word - pick up!

If you have money to make and you can improve your acting skills, why not?

As for the salary, when the popularity goes up, it will naturally rise.

As the sun rises, the temperature slowly rises.

Zhang Zhen's accidental injury was delayed for three days, and during this period, Zhang Ziyi continued to practice equestrian and playing, and Lu Bu did not need to practice these two, so it did not affect the overall progress.

In the morning, Li An conducted a script reading to sort out the scenes to be filmed, and the filming process was arranged very carefully.

Here I have to mention the difference between Hollywood-made movies and domestically produced movies.

The project structure adopted in the production of most Hollywood films is that the art director and the director of photography cooperate with the director to form the core artistic creation team, and the executive producer and production director serve the producer and constitute the main management team.

In China, the producer, as the representative of the capital, pursues the maximization of profits, the director, as the core of the entire production team, maintains the quality of the film, and the producer or producer often assumes the role of balancing the interests and services of multiple parties in the current domestic film market.

Anyway, whether it is a "producer-centric system" or a "director-centric system", there are pros and cons.

In this small conference room that was temporarily arranged, there was one person who caught Lu Bu's attention, and that was Zhang Ziyi, who was about to play a rival role.
