Chapter 125 The man who supports half the sky of Hong Kong movies
Qin Gang wanted to say that Ding Xiu was stupid when he filmed a big bearded film, but he didn't dare to say it.
In the industry, Zhang Jizhong's pay for new actors is notoriously low, so it's okay to laugh and arrogance. Ding Xiu was already famous before taking over the Tianlong Ba Movie, and his pay was only 200,000 yuan.
If you change to other crews, it will definitely be more than this price.
Not to mention the hero played by Ding Xiu, the dead martial arts world is released, the Ghost Story of the Age of Age, and the Legend of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.
With three dramas and one title of four young actors, Ding Xiu's value has long increased.
To the outside world, Qin Gang's offer to Ding Xiu was a 40-episode TV series with a pay of 400,000 yuan, and an average of 10,000 yuan per episode.
"If this drama is not a group drama, the pay for 300,000 yuan is indeed a bit low, so you have to add tens of thousands more."
When he heard that he could add tens of thousands more, Ding Xiu felt like he was bleeding, and his situation was still small.
"Can you talk about it again?"
"I can't negotiate, just this price, and I refuse to give in. The total investment of this drama is 30 million, there are many actors, and there are special effects in the later stage, so the funds are very tight."
Thirty million, big production, Ding Xiu's eyes shining: "Okay, thirty is thirty, I'll take it."
Qin Gang sat back on his boss's chair and picked up the landline phone: "Since you agree, I'll reply to them now."
"Wait, don't you need to have a test show?"
Ding Xiu was a little sensitive to audition, for fear of meeting competitors like Zhao Wenzhuo and Donnie Yen again.
He was too irritated and was annoyed to beat him. He was afraid that one day he would not be able to help but beat him up.
"Brother Xiu, be confident, you are already a celebrity, Lin Pingzhi, Song Qingshu, Qiye Saint Lord, Changkong, in ancient costume, you are not inferior to any of your peers."
"Reply the phone and go back and try the assembly and go through the process, and you can sign the contract if you are almost done."
The businessman is profitable, and Wang Jin is a famous film businessman. He is the screenwriter and producer of this drama.
The world's number one focus on the young people's market, male actors should be handsome and actresses should be beautiful.
In China, when it comes to ancient costumes, martial arts, fighting, and handsomeness, the name Ding Xiu is a bit inaccessible now.
Before asking him, the drama must have done research, what is the popularity, what is the costume look, whether it is suitable for the role, etc.
So this signing will go smoothly if nothing unexpected happens.
Ding Xiu nodded, then said, "I'll ask if I can bring Baoqiang with me this time. This kid's kung fu is good and his martial arts are good."
After being stunned for two seconds, Qin said just now: "Okay, I'll try."
"Then I'll leave first, call me if you have something to do."
Ding Xiu did not delay his work, and left after he said that. Qin Gang stared at his back for a few seconds, then lowered his eyebrows and sighed.
He stopped calling and leaned against the desk and rubbed his eyebrows.
Baoqiang is a bit difficult to deal with. He has never been praised. He can't play special roles before, but now he is getting back to the scenes and performs a lot every day.
Become a martial arts stand-in from time to time and make some hard money.
As for the blind well he starred in, there was no news for so long, and it was almost gone.
If it weren't for Ding Xiu's sake, Baoqiang would have long been opened.
Dan Ding Xiu spoke, he was hard to refuse, so of course there was no problem in winning an ordinary character. The problem was that he got it this time, what should I do next time?
If you can't hold it up, you can't hold it up.
...
Trial preparation, signing a contract, getting the complete script, and the drama party made the first one, everything was so natural.
During this period, Qin Gang found a new assistant for Ding Xiu, a male assistant, who said he was strong, strong in body, and had good driving skills, so he could use it casually.
You're welcome, Ding Xiu accepted it.
Just a bag-carrying driver, just work as a part-time driver.
After National Day, Ding Xiu took Baoqiang to the Water Margin Film and Television Base.
As soon as he arrived at the local star hotel, Baoqiang looked up and saw that everything was fresh.
"Brother, do you usually live in this kind of place when filming?"
"It's necessary to see the crew. Sometimes I live in the mountains and set up a tent on the spot."
At the front desk, he took out his ID card and Ding Xiu received the room card. His room was different from Wang Baoqiang.
He is a luxurious room, and Baoqiang is an ordinary standard room.
In the world's number one crew, Wang Baoqiang got a small supporting role, with few roles, so where can he get a high salary?
Ding Xiu paid for this standard room by himself and asked his assistant to order it. He didn't give it to the whole luxury room because he was afraid that he would think too much.
Actors like them usually live in hotels near the film and television base.
Two days later, at the meeting, Ding Xiu met with other actors in the crew.
"Brother Pang, long time no see."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
In the small conference room, Ding Xiu met Li Yapeng again. The last time the two worked together was at the end of 2000, and it was almost two years in the blink of an eye.
After not seeing each other for two years, Li Yapeng's appearance has not changed much, but he still looks the same.
But Ding Xiu is no longer the Ding Xiu he used to be.
Facing this four young actors who are as famous as him, Li Yapeng dared not ignore them, and he did a good job in the scene.
"Hello, I am Chen Farong, playing Su Xin."
"Hello sister, younger brother Ding Xiu, playing Gui Hai Yidao."
The second person to say hello was a beautiful woman. Ding Xiu had watched many Hong Kong movies and knew that Chen Farong had debuted earlier, so she had been talking about it for more than ten years.
She looks young, but she is actually quite old. Judging from her previous dramas, Da Ding Xiu is at least fourteen or fifteen years old.
"You are Guihai Yidao, you are quite handsome." Behind Chen Farong, a girl in her twenties came out.
With his fair palm stretched out, the girl smiled and said, "Ye Xuan, your wife, in the play."
Caught off guard, Ding Xiu almost missed this introduction, and the one who could be his wife in the play was Shangguan Haitang.
But the two only have one day's relationship.
Because Shangguan Haitang died as soon as he got together.
"Hello." Unable to be moved by beauty at all, Ding Xiu shook hands gently and let go.
Then he walked a few meters away and another beautiful beauty who didn't speak much after entering the door.
"I would have come earlier if I had known you were in this group."
Gao Yuanyuan smiled sweetly and said, "I just arrived last night, too."
"What role do you play?"
"Yao Sheng Piao Xu, where are you?"
"Guihai Yidao."
"Then you have a lot of shows."
The two haven't seen each other for a long time. This reunion is not as good as a divorce, but it's almost the same.
As soon as they opened their mouths, they couldn't stop. After more than ten minutes, they had never closed their mouths. The two of them flirted with each other, and laughter came from Gao Yuanyuan's mouth from time to time.
All the way to the entire conference room, everyone's eyes were gathered on them.
"Ahem." Gao Yuanyuan's face was flushed when she was staring at so many pairs of eyes. She gently stroked her hair with her fingers and pulled her back to her ears. She shaved Ding Xiu hard, and then found a seat to sit down.
"Brother, can you change it?"
Guo Jingan sat down well, and suddenly a beautiful woman came beside her. Before she could introduce her, she was patted on her shoulder and turned her head to meet Ding Xiu's handsome face.
There are many empty seats on the scene, and no matter who sits at any position, they are all sitting randomly.
He doesn't want to let it go.
However, considering the information I checked before, Ding Xiu was very good at fighting and had a record of KOing a Sanda boxing champion, he decided to give him face.
"Of course." Moving his butt to the side, Guo Jingan vacated a position between Gao Yuanyuan.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome." Speaking Cantonese, Guo Jing'an said: "My name is Guo Jing'an, who plays the role of "Yes and False".
"Guihai's sword, I'll be lucky to meet you."
After saying this, Ding Xiu turned his head and continued to chat with Gao Yuanyuan.
What else Guo Jingan wanted to say, but Ding Xiu just looked at him with the back of his head, and he couldn't say anything.
Not long after, the producer, director, and a group of staff came in, and Ding Xiu stopped talking to Gao Yuanyuan.
Among the staff, he saw an acquaintance, Cheng Xiaodong, who was just right, the martial arts director of this drama.
"Welcome to the world's number one crew. Everyone should know me, so I won't introduce myself. Haha, just kid, my brother Wang Jin, is the producer of this drama..."
While Wang Jin was talking, Ding Xiu kept looking at him.
The director is the person behind the scenes, and there are few who can come into the eyes of the audience. For most ordinary people, after watching a movie, who cares about the name written in the director's column.
But Fatty Wang is exceptional.
This guy is very famous.
He has been in the industry for twenty years and has directed more than 100 movies. In terms of output, no one in China can compare to him.
You think that if you shoot more, you will have more bad movies. No, he has many good movies.
Thousand Kings Fight Thousand Ba, Hardcover Chasing Girls, Prank Expert, Best Bad Friend, Supreme, Gambler, Gambler, Deer and Cauldron, Huang Feihong, The Deer and the Dragon Saber, The Leader of the Demon Sect, Nine-rank Sesame Official, New Shaolin Five Ancestor, etc.
Then, then
In addition to the movies he directed himself, he served as the producer and wrote many classic movies, such as the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, the Top Ten Tortures, the Naked Lamb, etc.
It is no exaggeration to say that Fatty Wang alone supports half of the Hong Kong film industry.
In addition to his identity as a director, Fatty Wang is also an actor, and his figures often appear in movies.
Of course, what Ding Xiu envies the most is this guy's romantic love history.
The reason why Ding Xiu envied was that Fatty Wang didn’t have to be strong, so many women volunteered to deliver them to their doors for resources.
One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.
"We come from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Three Lands, from all over the world, and it is not easy to go far away. I hope we can have a happy cooperation."
"During the shooting process, I hope to overcome any difficulties as much as possible. If I really can't overcome them, I can find me at any time. I am a person who is easy to talk to..."
Fatty Wang smiled and talked to everyone throughout the whole process, and looked like he was not arrogant at all.
Mandarin is very good, and those who don’t know think they are from the mainland.
After talking for seven or eight minutes, he gave the opportunity to the director, and the director arranged the shooting plan and precautions.
One of them is to play all the fighting scenes yourself, unless it is a high-risk action.
Hearing this, some people's faces changed subtly.
Li Yapeng touched his knees calmly.
Last year, when filming the Legend of the Condor Heroes, he was injured in his leg while filming the scene. Now it's better, but it's a bit of a shadow on the hanging wire.
After the meeting, Fatty Wang led everyone to another private room in the hotel to eat and drink.
In the private room, there are a lot of boys and a lot of girls.
There are so many beautiful girls on the side of the girl. A large group of people are talking about. They are smiling happily, surging, and very eye-catching.
When they talked about the boys in the crew, they looked at Ding Xiu at the same time.
Ding Xiu was having a drink with Cheng Xiaodong, and he vaguely heard someone say he was handsome and looked at the girl. The girls quickly changed their eyes.
