Chapter 63 Taking over the filming [Wind and Cloud]

Yansha, Ye Ming looked at Yunshang men's clothing, and his heart felt like bleeding. It costs more than 8,000 yuan. This is considered the top brand in the country.

An ordinary set of Yunshang men's clothing, casual, comes with a standard price of more than RMB 6,000. Obviously, Fang Fang had no intention of saving money for him at all, and went straight to the clothes priced at RMB 8,000. Ye Ming naturally chose the clothes for himself. Card swiped.

Seeing Ye Ming's distressed look, Fang Fang became very angry. You are a star. Why, you are now about the same size as your wrist. You can't be stingy.

Therefore, at this time, Fang Fang's eyes widened and he hit him rudely: "You have to work hard to become a first-line star and a big shot as soon as possible. In this case, there will be endless famous brands to wear. When the time comes, there will be many famous brands for you." You’ve given me clothes to wear, but before that, you’d better be more honest.”

Ye Ming was indifferent, yes, if you are not on the front line, you will rarely be sponsored by branded clothes.

The Red Flag Auditorium is the auditorium within the Directors Association. Meetings and other meetings are usually held here. This time, the celebration party was also held here.

Today was said to be a celebration party held by the Directors Association for Director Feng Xiaogang, but to be honest, the only leader who came was the vice president Teng Wenji. As for the president not coming, maybe the leader was delayed by something.

Moreover, the national counselor Zhang Yimou did not come, and it was naturally impossible for Sir Chen Kaige to come.

The annual box office championship was won by a young man who was just starting out. This made the two big-name directors lose their respect.

Come to cheer you up, you don’t even have to think about it.

In fact, only a few directors came deserted, such as Lu Xuechang, Gu Changwei and others, who were already sitting there happily.

Naturally, there is a feeling of jealousy in my heart. To say that a director does not want to be the annual box office champion is to pretend to be a grandson. Anyway, no director does not want to be like this.

But they concealed it very well, and naturally they looked congratulatory.

No one can see their jealousy.

As for Ning Hao, he is considered a young man among directors now, a fledgling boy who comes here to eat and drink and get to know other directors. This guy can't hide the jealousy in his heart.

From time to time, he looked at Feng Xiaogang and said to himself: "If we can achieve this step, it will be called success. I simply envy Director Feng so much. Comedy seems to have a future."

This moment also strengthened Ninghao's determination to develop in comedy.

Another colleague said unceremoniously: "You are the one who has the role, can you do it? That Ge You in the stands, the salary of one actor is the cost of two of your movies, what else are you doing? You can't afford it." .”

In 1997, if we were talking about shooting a small-budget movie with a cost of 300,000 yuan, it would not be impossible if we calculated carefully, but the quality was hard to say.

However, there are exceptions, such as Blind Well, starring Wang Baoqiang. The cost was less than 200,000 yuan, or even less, but it still won Wang Baoqiang the Golden Horse Newcomer Award.

Ning Hao said without any discouragement: "Just take it step by step. One day I will succeed."

And Ye Ming also discovered that Guan Hu, a very famous director in the future, was also a director who paid great attention to the details of people's daily lives.

The filming of "Survival, Migrant Workers" is definitely a rare realistic TV series.

Of course, there were still more than thirty people present, all members of the Directors Guild. Vice President Teng Wenji still had some respect, so he said hello, and many people came.

At this time, Feng Xiaogang was naturally smiling and looking very happy. He smiled at everyone he met. After seeing Ye Ming, he went over to pat him and said, "Ye Ming, Party A and Party B performed well. It's not just me." The credit of people is also the credit of everyone. Your performance in the film is quite outstanding. Many people have already asked about you from me. I will introduce you to a new friend later, which is a small thank you from me."

When he came to a deserted corner, Feng Xiaogang finally couldn't help but shed tears. For many days and nights, he couldn't help but suffer in his heart, longing that one day he could stand upright and say that he was a director.

How many people ridicule that they don't have the talent to be a director, so they might as well just be a screenwriter.

He struggled, he hesitated, and he lost.

But he was unwilling to give in. He came step by step and finally achieved results one day.

Looking at the heavy box office and dividends, it was real money. From then on, he had a place among the domestic first-line directors.

At this moment, there were countless people outside who envied him and were jealous of him, but no one thought that at this moment, Feng Xiaogang already had his own new goal in his heart.

Not a first-line director, but Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, two international directors.

Wiping away his tears, he looked at the beer in his hand, now pretending to be a grandson and replaced it with red wine. Feng Xiaogang smiled mockingly, adjusted his emotions, and then returned to the lobby with a smile.

Countless envious eyes were waiting for him.

Teng Wenji spoke earnestly on the stage, and finally said: "This celebration is not just for Feng Xiaogang, but also to encourage Chinese films to save the market. I hope everyone will make more good movies. If you have any good books in the future, just send them over, the Directors Guild will strongly support them."

Several leading actors from [Party A and Party B] were also invited to participate. This was what Feng Xiaogang meant. The success of a movie is not the result of one person. As a director, Teng Wenji naturally knows this very well.

However, Ge You spoke on behalf of the leading actors. He knew very well that the protagonist at the moment was Feng Xiaogang. Therefore, he briefly said a few words, which were nothing more than some polite words, thank you for this, thank you for that, and finally used the sentence at the end of the movie. He ended with one sentence: "1997 has passed, and I miss him very much."

Yes, 1997 has passed, and it’s not just Uncle Ge who is missed.

And Feng Xiaogang

Ye Ming, Zhao Wei, Lin Xinru, Fan Binbin and many other members of Huanzhugege.

Memories, like the flying snow outside the window, are scattered into the most beautiful pieces, drifting with the wind to the unknown distance.

Perhaps, inadvertently, some people will always think of that 1997, a year full of happiness, sadness, laughter and tears.

After the meeting, Feng Xiaogang pulled Ye Ming out and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet a friend. This might be an opportunity for you."

Along the way, Ye Ming wanted to ask several times who it was, but Feng Xiaogang refused to tell him, but he also promised that he would not let Ye Ming down.

In a room of the Media Hotel, there was a man with glasses who didn't look too fat now. After Ye Ming saw it, he was shocked. This man, Liu Weiqiang, was a very good director.

If there is any local director in Hong Kong who can compete with Xu Ke, Wong Jiawei and other directors, it is this director in front of him.

Speaking of Liu Weiqiang's name, many movie fans may not be too familiar with it, because he is not as famous as Xu Ke and Wang Jiawei, but when it comes to his director's movies, it can be said that many people will know it. He was the director of "The Young and the Dangerous". The five Young and Dangerous movies established his status as a first-line director in Hong Kong. Later, the "Infernal Affairs" trilogy was known as the rescue work of Hong Kong movies.

Feng Xiaogang introduced: "This is director Liu Weiqiang from Hong Kong City. It just so happens that he also came to the mainland to select actors. Director Liu, this is Ye Ming."

Liu Weiqiang introduced himself and said: "I have only one purpose this time, to choose some actors for my next movie. Some actors from the Mainland. The one I came into contact with is Wang Zhiwen. It has been preliminarily decided that one of him will be cast." The character is in the movie. Because this is an action movie, I hope the actor can have a domineering and overt character. Wang Zhiwen fits my needs for the role. When I heard Director Feng recommended you, I had the idea of ​​meeting you. , I saw your performance in [Party A and Party B], it was good, very good. What my movie needs is such a hard-working actor. Tell me how your kung fu is."

Ding dong, after a burst of familiar music played, the system displayed [Trigger side task, take over filming [Wind and Cloud: Heroes Dominate the World]. Rewards: 20 points for acting skills and 20 points for popularity. Special reward, a chance to audition for Liu Weiqiang's masterpiece "Infernal Affairs". 】Other rewards are okay, but the opportunity to audition for "Infernal Affairs" is simply a rare opportunity.

"Infernal Affairs" is known as the flagship Hong Kong film in the past ten years.

Ye Ming secretly vowed to seize this opportunity and click OK immediately.

Liu Weiqiang picked up an apple with the word "happy" in the guest room and said: "This audition actually has only one requirement, that is, Kung Fu, how is your Kung Fu. I will throw the apple up. If you can get the apple , even if you win. No matter what method you use, it will work.”

Feng Xiaogang was also surprised by such an audition. What kind of audition was this? Could it be that the audition was not about acting?

Who knew that at this time, Liu Weiqiang did not throw the apple towards Ye Ming, but directly towards the direction of the window.

Seeing Liu Weiqiang's behavior, Feng Xiaogang's face became obviously unhappy. Aren't you kidding me?

Throwing it directly out the window, what kind of test of kung fu is it? This is the tenth floor. What kind of test of kung fu is it on the tenth floor? It is definitely an act of seeking death.

But I didn't expect that at this time, Ye Ming was not polite at all. Instead, just when Liu Weiqiang was about to throw the apple away, he rushed over, grabbed Liu Weiqiang's arm, and snatched the apple away. , no ambiguity.

Feng Xiaogang was even more stunned now. The director was a little unreliable, and the actors were even more unreliable.

What kind of thing is this? For such a thing, which song did the two of them sing about?

Ye Ming threw the apple into the air with his right hand, then caught it, placed it gently on the fruit plate, and then said: "Director, what do you think, am I qualified?"

In such a situation, Feng Xiaogang's heart felt so cold that he directly snatched the apple from the director's hand. What do you want to do?

But unexpectedly, Liu Weiqiang took out another apple with the word "happy". The partridge was the one he really wanted to throw away. What Ye Ming snatched away was the apple with the word "cai" (the word "cai") for "prosperity".

Not the apple with the word "happy" in Liu Weiqiang's hand.

Because Liu Weiqiang changed the apple halfway, but no one paid much attention to this at the time.

At this time, Liu Weiqiang smiled. Forget about the one in my heart.

Therefore, in such a situation, he unceremoniously threw the apple outside again.

This time, Ye Ming was a little helpless, because at this time, Liu Weiqiang had already said that he would throw the apple out before Ye Ming rushed over.

On the tenth floor, if an apple falls, it will break into pieces.

Human beings, it’s not realistic to follow them.

But at this moment, Ye Ming grabbed a slender apple knife near the fruit plate.

A cold light flashed, and the apple that wanted to fly out of the window was pinned to the wall by the apple knife. Ye Ming took the apple over again.

Who would have known that in such a situation, Liu Weiqiang actually slapped the table and said: "Not bad, not bad, he can adapt to changes, and his movements are so sensitive. He must have practiced it when he was a child, right?"

A skilled actor will get twice the result with half the effort if he shoots his own film. Feng Xiaogang knows this very well, and Liu Weiqiang knows this even more.

Therefore, at this time, Liu Weiqiang thought for a while and said: "Okay, you performed well. I didn't say you can't snatch my apple. As long as you have the ability, it's not a big deal. It doesn't hurt to tell you, What I filmed was a movie adapted from an anime, called "The Heroes of the Storm" starring Zheng Yijian and Aaron Kwok. You have a foundation in kung fu, and I hope we can have a happy cooperation. I will contact your company's agent for specific details. People talk.”

Basically, this matter was over. Feng Xiaogang and Liu Weiqiang exchanged pleasantries and left with Ye Ming.

The moment he left the door, Liu Weiqiang suddenly said from behind: "Ye Ming, do you know why I chose you? In fact, I prefer actors from Baodao or Hong Kong City."

Ye Ming turned around and shook his head and said "I don't know"

Liu Weiqiang said proudly: "Actually, I like Jackson very much. Your performance has his shadow, so you should thank two people, one is Jackson and the other is Director Feng."

After telling Fang Fang the news, Fang Fang still couldn't believe it and said: "Liu Weiqiang, is Liu Weiqiang, the director of Young and Dangerous? You actually said that you know Liu Weiqiang. This is a bit impossible. Could it be that when you were training in Hong Kong City We know each other, otherwise why would he choose you?"

Ye Ming laughed and said: "How to choose me? It's a matter of character. This is because I have a good character."

Fang Fang finally hit him without hesitation and said: "Don't be complacent, Feng Xiaogang recommended you, I wonder why you haven't come back yet. I will find Director Liu Weiqiang to settle this matter tomorrow."

Ye Ming was stunned and said, "How do you know this?"

Fang Fang snorted and said, "What don't I know? Liu Weiqiang came to choose an actor, and he has fallen in love with Wang Zhiwen. It's already decided. It's not a secret in the industry. Of course, in a situation like this , Or should I say; Liu Weiqiang visited Director Feng Xiaogang because he watched [Party A and Party B], and Director Feng even hosted a dinner for others. Without Director Feng’s recommendation, would you have met Liu Weiqiang?”

This shattered Ye Ming's pride without hesitation. It's just Feng Xiaogang's recommendation.

Ye Ming was not discouraged and said: "That's my strength, okay? You don't know what kind of title Director Liu Weiqiang will use. This person is too cunning. Ordinary people will never have such a title. Fortunately, It’s me, otherwise no one will get through.”

The next day, Fang Fang settled the matter of [Wind and Cloud Dominates the World] very early in the morning.

Then, he took Ye Ming straight to the Jingcheng Hotel. At this time, the representative of Jingcheng Beer was waiting there impatiently.

Jingcheng Beer is no ordinary beer. It is a time-honored brand and naturally has its own style.

At this time, when the representative saw Ye Ming and Fang Fang, he became a little annoyed and said, "What are you doing? Let us, Manager Sun, wait for you. Do you think you are some of the top names, the emperor and the superstar?"

Fang Fang looked at the time and said, "We are not late. There are still five minutes left before the agreed time?"

The representative said unceremoniously: "It's not that I'm late, but it's wrong to ask Manager Sun to wait. As artists, you should come early. Manager Sun is the last person who likes to wait for others. I'm not talking about you, you should come early." , at this time, another celebrity's agent has arrived and is talking to Manager Sun. When the time comes, you should be careful."

At this time, Fang Fang was a little unhappy: "Why are you doing this? You have clearly decided on us. How can you find someone else to come? At least you can talk to us before talking about others."

The representative shrugged his shoulders and said: "There is nothing I can do about this. It was decided by Manager Sun. If you have any questions, just ask him at a time like this. I have no way to explain this to you." . But you can just wait for the rest. Manager Sun may come to you after the discussion, so just wait."

The representative also threw Ye Ming and the others into the corridor without any courtesy, and left without looking back.

At this time, Fang Fang said angrily: "What kind of thing is this? What kind of attitude is this?"

However, Ye Ming said with a smile: "Sister Fang Fang, please calm down. In fact, this is just an ordinary little trick. It's not a big deal. It's just that you want to lower our prices. You may not see it in Hong Kong City." However, in the Mainland, such a method is simply too much. It is not worth being angry about this matter."
