Chapter 1910 also talks about Feng Xiaogang and Zhou Xingxing

Ye Ming returned to the capital this time for his own TV series. Hong Fei did some preliminary work, but many things were actually left to Ye Ming himself to do.

Returning to the capital this time, Ye Ming was not so relaxed. After all, there are still many people who know that Ye Ming is awake, and there are also many people who come to see him.

Feng Xiaogang seemed to be the most active in this regard, and Feng Xiaogang's information was also very well-informed. After Ye Ming arrived in the capital, he was directly approached.

Not many people know where Ye Ming lives, but Feng Xiaogang is definitely a friend who knows where Ye Ming lives.

Ye Ming saw Feng Xiaogang, who was tired of work, as if he had stayed up late all night. In this state, he either came from the studio or was thinking about the movie.

Therefore, Ye Ming immediately said: "Director Feng, what kind of situation is this? It looks like you have lost a lot of weight without losing weight. What have you been busy with recently?"

Feng Xiaogang was indeed a little depressed, but after seeing Ye Ming, he cheered up and said: "I'm working on the movie "Assembly Number". If you weren't in a coma, I would have thought of inviting you to come and star. This movie."

"Assembly" is not Feng Xiaogang's best-grossing movie, but it is the most meaningful one, with depth and emotion. It can be said that "Assembly" is one of the few films by Feng Xiaogang that can be worshiped in the halls of world cinema.

Of course there are big earthquakes. As for other films directed by Feng Xiaogang, they may have a box office, a market, and audiences like them, but they are just popcorn movies.

Therefore, Assembly Number is actually Feng Xiaogang's transformation work.

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment before saying, "You finally made up your mind to make this movie. Didn't the people above say anything?"

When Feng Xiaogang heard this, he was very helpless and said: "Actually, I have approached the leader not once, but for many years, about such a matter, and finally let him go.

But I don’t have confidence in the box office. If you were there, you might be able to boost the box office a little more with your fame. "Ye Ming's superstar-level fame is of course very helpful to the movie.

Although Feng Xiaogang's assembly numbers are more about dreams and feelings, it doesn't mean that Feng Xiaogang doesn't care about the market. Regarding a problem like this, Ye Ming is a better choice.

Hearing this, Ye Ming shook his head and said: "This matter is actually not as simple as you think. You want me to play the leading role, do you think the Wang brothers will be happy?

This is a big production by Huayi Brothers. For such a big production, the first thing that comes to mind is of course the artists from our own company.

If you really want to ask me to star in it, it will be an almost impossible task. It's okay to ask me to make a guest appearance. "

If it's a starring role, it means that the company will strongly support it, especially in a big production like "Assembly", if it is the male lead, it means that the company will really support it.

Would Huayi Brothers give such a position to an outside actor? It's definitely impossible. Such a good opportunity should naturally be reserved for the artists of your own company.

Therefore, Feng Xiao just said: "These two brothers are indeed very calculating. Not to mention this, the matter has been settled anyway, and it is impossible to change it.

Next time, if there is a chance next time, I will ask you to star in my movie.

This time, I want to ask you for two things. One is to ask you to make a guest appearance. If you can't star in this, I want to make a guest appearance. If the Wang brothers dare to say anything, don't blame me for being rude. "

Starring is impossible, and Feng Xiaogang actually understands this, but if it means a guest appearance or something, then there is no big problem with such an issue.

After all, at this point, it is well known that Ye Ming can drive box office.

And in fact, the Wang brothers also know that inviting Ye Ming to guest star is equivalent to Ye Ming being a green leaf for Huayi Brothers' artists. It is difficult to say whether Ye Ming can be invited at this time.

Therefore, on such a problem, how to invite Ye Ming to come over depends on Feng Xiaogang's ability.

Anyway, the Wang brothers knew that they did not have such a big reputation.

If the two brothers went to invite Ye Ming, 99% of the time they would fail. On the contrary, Feng Xiaogang and Ye Ming cooperated very early.

Basically, when Party A and Party B were working together ten years ago, the two parties had cooperated, and the relationship was considered to be very good.

Ye Ming also knew that since Feng Xiaogang said that he would come to the door, it would be inappropriate if he did not give face to him in person.

That's how it is with the entertainment industry. If you give me face, I'll give you face. That's how relationships come about.

If I flatter you, but you fail to flatter me, then there will be no need to be friends from now on.

Just like Zhou Xingxing, it can be said that Zhou Xingxing is the superstar who is least able to deal with interpersonal relationships.

I haven't talked about Zhou Xingxing's movies, there are many classic memories, but when it comes to Zhou Xingxing's life, it's really hard to say.

More than 90% of the people in the entertainment industry who have worked with Zhou Xingxing will fall out with each other, and those who haven't are basically artists from his company.

Anyway, those superstars who have worked with Zhou Xingxing, such as Hong Jinbao, who is the big brother, have also offended. Li Xiuxian can be said to be Zhou Xingxing's mentor, and he has also offended Wong Jing, Uncle Da, etc. , anyway, few of these big stars can say good things about Zhou Xingxing.

That is, Johnnie To is a little more polite, saying that Zhou Xingxing is a good actor, but his temper needs to change.

Zhou Xingxing is very talented, but very egocentric and self-centered. There is no problem if he is like this when filming, but if he is still like this outside of filming, then it doesn't matter if he doesn't offend others.

Why couldn't superstars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Taiwan join in Zhou Xingxing's movie? It was because everyone knew Zhou Xingxing's temper and didn't want to make guest appearances.

Not to mention that superstars don't know how to behave. For example, in Brother Cheng Long's later movies, big stars were often invited to help out.

In fact, speaking of the feud between Feng Xiaogang and Zhou Xingxing, that is to say, Zhou Xingxing invited Feng Xiaogang to attend the premiere of his movie, and Feng Xiaogang came to help stand up.

But later Feng Xiaogang invited Zhou Xingxing to come to the premiere. Zhou Xingxing said that he didn't have time, so there was no need to play.

In fact, most people in the entertainment industry have a few die-hard friends. For such die-hard friends, it is only a matter of words to invite them to come and make guest appearances.

Except for Zhou Xingxing who can carry the whole movie by himself, basically all other big stars have old friends.

Ye Ming heard a lot of resentment in Feng Xiaogang's words, and then said very relaxedly: "The Huayi brothers have invested so much, so naturally they want to praise their own people. There is no problem with guest appearances. When will we say it?" Just one sound.

But it’s best to decide within the next month, because a month later, I will be filming a TV series, and my schedule will be quite busy by then. "

When Feng Xiaogang saw that Oring had agreed, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll arrange your scenes and I'll definitely have them done for you within two weeks. In fact, the assembly number also filmed a lot of scenes, I'm very busy." Incredible.

It can be said that your role is basically the closing stage. The key is the post-production period. The post-production stage of this war film is still very important. "

Don't think that only the later stages of science fiction and martial arts are more important. In fact, if the post stages of war films are not done well enough, it will be very troublesome for something like this.

After all, it means that for a problem like this, some explosions, fights, and even aerial battles, etc., all require later stages. And the post-production of war films is also a top priority.

Speaking of this, Feng Xiaogang added: "By the way, I received an invitation from Zhou Xingxing two days ago. He said that he was going to shoot a movie called Yangtze River No. 7 or something like that. He was planning to shoot it. He said that he was waiting for me to be busy with the movie. That's it, I'll go back and make a cameo in one of his movies. I was busy gathering numbers, so I didn't give him a specific reply.

I have been so busy recently, and the filming of the assembly number has been completed, and the post-production special effects and dubbing also require a lot of time, so cooperation is not easy. "

Feng Xiaogang's relationship with Zhou Xingxing was relatively good at this time. The two had not only collaborated in advertisements, but also in movies.

At this moment, Ye Ming pondered for a while before saying: "I think you'd better think about this matter. Don't have close friendship with Zhou Xingxing."

These words are very straightforward. Normally, people in the entertainment industry, even friends, would not say such things so straightforwardly, but Ye Ming was not polite at all this time. I said this directly.

Therefore, Feng Xiaogang had to pay attention to such a thing.

At this moment, Feng Xiaogang hesitated for a moment before saying: "Yi Zi, what do you mean by this? Is there any conflict between you and Zhou Xingxing?

It seems like your movie styles are different, so there shouldn't be any competition. "

Ye Ming waved his hands with a smile and said very relaxedly: "Director Feng, you are too polite. Zhou Xingxing and I have no grudges, but I just don't like this person's way of dealing with others.

If I choose a movie, I might choose Zhou Xingxing's movie when I go to the cinema, but if I choose a friend, I won't choose Zhou Xingxing. This person is too egotistical.

There are no movies of his that are at the level of a master. But his style of dealing with people is also the style of a great master.

Brother Hong Jinbao has worked with him and said that he cannot treat himself as a human being and others as dogs. You said you don't take Zhou Xingxing seriously, like Brother Hong Jinbao, but what do you think of other people like Zhou Xingxing? "

Feng Xiaogang actually doesn't have much cooperation with Zhou Xingxing, so he doesn't actually know this person very well.

After thinking about it, Feng Xiao just said: "I think, although Zhou Xingxing is a little proud, he doesn't have any other problems. Of course, he may be a little stubborn."

Ye Ming said with a smile: "That's because you haven't cooperated too much, and he also needs you to open up the mainland film market, so he will be more restrained.

Again, there is no doubt that Zhou Xingxing's movies are worthy of his status in the world, but as an actor, this person has nothing to say, but as a friend, you absolutely cannot find someone like this. And it’s best not to have deep friendships.

If you look at his work, you will see that he is the kind of person who has no problem helping him, but if you want to ask him for help with something, he will definitely refuse without hesitation.

These are no longer secrets in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, and some colleagues in the mainland don’t know much about them.

In a word, Zhou Xingxing is so proud that it is unbearable. "

Ye Ming has repeatedly emphasized that Zhou Xingxing's works are classics, but as a person, he is definitely the kind of person who cannot be deeply friends with. At this time, Feng Xiaogang was also a little hesitant.

He didn't know very well who Zhou Xingxing was. Their cooperation was actually relatively short, so they couldn't be regarded as understanding each other.

But Feng Xiaogang and Ye Ming have been friends for many years, and Feng Xiaogang knows that Ye Ming is not the kind of person who casually slanders others.

In fact, according to Ye Ming's status in the world, there is no reason to slander Zhou Xingxing.

At this time, Feng Xiaogang hesitated and said, "You mean, I don't need to pay attention to Zhou Xingxing's invitation?"

Ye Ming didn't say anything with absolute certainty, but said: "If you don't believe it, you can directly ask Zhou Xingxing to come over and help you publicize the assembly number. I can guarantee that he will never come.

This is a self-centered person. There is actually a thin line between genius and madness.

For example, Einstein may not be great, but in fact, after watching his documentaries, he is basically a scumbag.

There is also Picasso, who is selfish, irritable, and petty. They are also typical characteristics of villains. It is just that because their artistic achievements are so beneficial, everyone has noticed their aura, and no one will have a deep understanding of what they are like on the inside.

Zhou Xingxing is this kind of person. His artistic achievements are astonishingly high. For others, one or two classic movies would be considered good, but Zhou Xingxing has more than ten. Note that they are classic movies, not bad movies.

Therefore, this person is destined to have no good friends in life, and his interpersonal relationships are handled very poorly. If you expect that if you help him, he will help you in the future, you are totally wrong.

Andy is pretty much the same, and brother Cheng Long is also a loyal person. Anyway, among the superstars in Hong Kong, except Zhou Xingxing, basically all of them handle interpersonal relationships well. "

This is not to slander Zhou Xingxing. No matter how high his film achievements are, how poorly he handles his interpersonal relationships. People who have worked with him probably know this very well.

If one or two people say something bad about you, it may be a rumor, but if most people in the entertainment industry and most of the people you have worked with say something bad about you, then you need to reflect on it.

Just like what Johnnie To said, it's time to change her character.
