Zeng Li can be said to be a legend in the film and television industry. At this time, she is a very rare international action star in China, and she is also a woman.
Even in Hollywood in Europe and the United States, it has a certain degree of fame and influence.
I heard that recently a Hollywood A-level action film invited her to play the leading role.
Zeng Li is also stubborn. Basically, she deliberately refuses to make films targeting China. She shouted to the Hollywood crew that the film was not unreasonable. The price of US$8 million was not negotiable.
That’s eight million dollars!
Converted into Chinese coins, it is over 50 million.
You know, the film and television industry at this time has not yet entered the era of capital flow.
The actors' salaries are still normal.
For top actresses like the Four Great Danes, their basic salary for participating in major productions is only about 5 million.
The salary of top male actors is higher, but it will never exceed 10 million.
Of course, international movie stars such as Jack Chen and Li Zhengdong who have entered Hollywood are excluded. At this time, their influence abroad is also shrinking rapidly.
Let's put it this way, Zeng Li's salary at this time was definitely the only one among mainland actors.
And the reason why she is so famous is because she met the founder of Star Director Studio early, who was the first generation heroine of "Kung Fu Miracle Doctor".
Because of envy, jealousy and hatred, various gossip stories about Zeng Li and the founder of Xingkong Director Studio were circulated in the circle, but not many people took it to heart.
To put it bluntly, a somewhat famous actress is eager to take her place.
Although the handsome young man has become popular due to the TV series in the past two years, he dare not say that he can compare with Zeng Li. Isn't this a joke?
Seeing that he was honest, the manager said sincerely: "This is a rare opportunity. Although it is just a TV series, there are many famous actors in the industry who want to participate, even if they don't get paid!"
"You must have read the novel "The Invincible Black Fist". How do you feel about it?"
"Pretty good!"
Speaking of this, the handsome young man became interested and expressed his thoughts incessantly.
In short, this novel is quite brilliant. If it could be made into a TV series, it would definitely be a hit.
"This is the end!"
The agent said with a smile: "This time we come here and ask you to actively participate in martial arts training. Aren't we just trying to win an important role in it?"
"Why can't he be the lead actor?"
The handsome young man finally expressed his ambition and said unhappily: "I think with my acting skills, I can perform pig's feet brilliantly!"
"It's a pity that you don't have much Kung Fu skills!"
A word from an agent is like a bucket of cold water being poured down your head.
Seeing the handsome young man's disapproval, he said angrily: "I heard that if you want to play pig's feet, you have to have real skills!"
"Maybe, but I'm going to be on the "Challenge" show!"
At this time, the handsome young man completely lost his temper.
He just doesn't understand. Acting is just acting. What kind of real skill does it require?
What the hell, you even want to appear on the "Challenge" program. Isn't this a lie?
At this time, the "Challenge" program easily surpassed the "Martial Arts Style" program of the Central Plains Provincial Station because Guihua TV and Star Group were willing to spend money, and with the support of Wudang and other martial arts forces.
It has become the most well-known and popular competitive competition program in China.
Because the program is so successful, it has a large number of viewers, and its influence is growing day by day, so it naturally attracts a lot of attention.
I’ve also seen a few episodes of Handsome Young Man, and they were really good.
If you don't have the ability to appear on the "Challenge" show, you will be embarrassed.
In the past, there were some so-called private experts who took the initiative to sign up for the "Challenge" program, only to be knocked down when they came on stage and became the laughing stock of the country.
It can be said that the emergence of the "Challenge" program seems to have become a threshold.
Being able to pass the competition on the "Challenge" program means that the strength of the participants has reached a certain level.
If you want to get the title of master, you have to pass several rounds of "Challenge" program.
Some of the action actors, as well as the martial arts actors, were selected from good actors who had passed the "Challenge" program.
I heard that these people are valued by film and television companies.
As action movies become more and more popular, there will definitely be times when they shine in the future. This is a certain thing.
Since the manager made it so clear, the handsome young man naturally gave up some of his inappropriate thoughts.
The group strolled slowly around Guihua City, admiring this increasingly famous garden city.
That's right, the Guihua City Government has not been idle either. Taking advantage of Guihua City's increasing reputation in recent years, it has used its own advantages to shout the slogan "Garden City".
As time went by, and with the city government's effective publicity, the name "Garden City" gradually gained recognition from the outside world.
With the rapid economic development and the existence of Star Group, it attracts a large number of foreign tourists every year.
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the urban environment. This is a well-known health resort in the country. Coupled with the deliberate tidying up by the city government, the environment here feels quite good to outsiders. It is less noisy and more peaceful.
The handsome young man and his entourage did not attract the attention of passers-by on the street. As time went by, more and more foreign tourists came to the city, and they could no longer take care of them.
As for the so-called celebrities, unless they are really famous, they will not attract much attention.
The existence of the Starry Sky Director Studio means that celebrities often appear here in Guihua City. As time goes by, it will naturally become stale.
Looking at China right now, which celebrity is as famous as Zeng Li?
At this time, Zeng Li's studio was in the provincial capital, and she often appeared in Guihua City. Naturally, she didn't pay too much attention to it after seeing her so much.
It was afternoon, and the sun was quite bright in the sky.
The handsome young man was a little tired from walking, so he decided to find a cold drink shop to rest for a while.
At this time, a group of middle school students wearing unknown jerseys ran past them with happy faces, attracting the attention of the handsome young people.
Following the direction in which the students were running, there was an open-air stadium a mile away.
It's a pretty simple golf course with one side flush with the road and four or five floors of cement steps on the other three sides.
But, this is the core area of Guihua City, right? How come there is such a large open space to build an open-air stadium?
Soon, bursts of shouts and cheers could be heard from the open-air stadium.
The handsome young man was a little ready to make a move. After a brief eye contact with his agent, he took a cold drink and ran to the stadium with two strong assistants to watch the game under the blazing afternoon sun.
No way, that kind of cheering sound is indeed somewhat attractive.
When he arrived at the stadium, what surprised the handsome young man was that there were quite a few spectators watching the game under the bright sun.
After looking carefully, I discovered that there was a long banner hanging above a simple stand with very conspicuous large characters: The Second Middle School Football League of Guihua City Grand Opening.
It turned out to be a middle school football match. Is it necessary to make such a big fuss?
The handsome young man was full of doubts. Considering the recent environment of domestic football, it would be an understatement to say that it stuns the streets.
Don’t all middle school students like to play basketball?
As for middle school football games, besides parents, who else will pay attention?
But looking at the situation in front of me, it doesn't seem like that is the case.
But soon he no longer had the intention to speculate, and was attracted by the exciting competition on the court. From time to time, he cheered and shouted together with the strange spectators around him.
Damn it, who could tell him that a middle school football game could be so exciting?
The two sides set up their formations to play offensive football, and the rhythm of the back and forth was quite fast.
Looking at the middle school students and players running all over the field, I wonder where they get such abundant physical fitness?
During the game, the referees and line judges were all available, and with the middle school student players on the court, it seemed quite formal and reliable.
After watching a game, the handsome young man's throat was dry from shouting, he was sweating profusely, and he felt indescribably happy.
What a wonderful game!
Not only did the middle school student players play happily on the field, but the spectators watching the game outside the field also enjoyed themselves.
When the handsome young man was about to leave, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar face in the stands on the left and was startled: Why is he here?
Unfortunately, the spectator who accompanied him quickly disappeared from sight.
I felt nervous all of a sudden and returned to my temporary residence as soon as possible. My agent happened to be there too and hurriedly informed me of what I had just discovered.
The agent looked calm, trying to calm him down, and said in a deep voice: "Do you think you are the only one who has the support of the company?"
"Other actors of the same generation, who have ideas and solid support, will naturally not miss this great opportunity!"
The handsome young man had already calmed down. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "That's true. I'm worried!"
"There's nothing to be anxious about, just perform well!"
The agent smiled and said: "Of course, don't be discouraged even if you are not selected, the company is still very optimistic about you!"
"Don't worry, brother, I know what's going on!"
The handsome young man relaxed his frown, and then he was in the mood to talk about the wonderful game he had just watched, and introduced it happily.
Finally, he said: "It's really weird. Haven't I heard recently that the situation in the football circle is not very good?"
“I never expected to see a wonderful middle school football match in Guihua City!”
"Just based on their performance, I'm afraid they will have a certain fighting ability in participating in the college football league!"
Men, most of them are interested in highly competitive sports such as football and basketball. Who didn’t play with sweat and passion when they were studying?
The agent looked a little weird, and after a long time he said calmly: 'Don't you know that there is a dominant Chinese Super League team in Guihua City?'
"Oh, this Chinese Super League dominant team belongs to the same group company as Star Director Studio. You can understand it!"
The handsome young man was dumbfounded when he heard this. It took him a while to react, and said with a wry smile: 'Look at my brain, I actually forgot about this...'
