In fact, if possible, Jiang Yan would not want to change any of them to save himself the trouble.
Who stipulates that time travelers must change the original movies and TV series?
But this movie can’t be designated as such. Would it be possible if Huang Earthsheng and Du Wenze didn’t change?
Zeng Zhiwei also needs to be replaced, and even Chao Wei will replace him if possible.
Then act it yourself, and with the help of golden fingers, your acting skills will definitely be passable.
It's a pity that Golden Finger can improve acting skills, but it can't change the external image.
Jiang Yan is only 18 now, and the role of 35-year-old Chen Yongren only depends on his acting skills, but not his temperament, and he also has to put on makeup.
But as Wang Jin said, relying on makeup to play a cross-age role will be quite distorted, and no matter how good your acting skills are, you will be in trouble.
Otherwise, how could there be three distinct levels among actors: old, middle-aged and young?
Moreover, if Jiang Yan really acts by himself, when people in the Hong Kong circle know about it, they will definitely not agree to it, regardless of whether your acting skills are good or not.
What, stepping on a bunch of heavyweight actors in Hong Kong to get to the top?
If you really want to do this, it doesn’t matter how awesome you are, the worst thing you can do is not cooperate.
After Wang Jin reminded him, Jiang Yan was actually quite helpless towards this kind of local protectionism.
Who allows himself to be a mainlander?
In this era, mainland China is represented as being backward, especially when it comes to movies.
It would be okay if he was somewhat famous in the film industry, but now he is just making his mark in the mainland music scene, and suddenly he plays the leading role in a Hong Kong blockbuster, so he will naturally be ostracized.
When the time comes to prepare for the movie, let alone big-name actors, maybe not even small actors can be found.
And if it's the other way around, if you look at the later movie, a bunch of outstanding actors from the Mainland were cast, and they made a "Cute Meng Stand Up" movie. When it was done, everyone felt very good, and they also reaped the dividends. But later, as the mainland developed rapidly, they basically had no place to hang out in the mainland.
Therefore, in order to continue to work smoothly in Hong Kong in the future, Jiang Yan can only play the young version of Chen Yongren, which no one will say anything about.
But it’s okay to give in once, because Jiang Yan’s original purpose is to advance progress, and bombarding the Hong Kong film industry with high-scoring blockbusters is just a way of doing it. He actually doesn’t care much about the issue of not playing the leading role. After all, the world is also Not very attractive.
But you can’t get me to give in a second time.
All the proposed roles have been changed by me, so I am still the sponsor?
So Liu Jianming must be Andy Lau, and no one can change it, unless of course Andy gives up on his own.
So when Andy asked why he was chosen.
Jiang Yan did not answer immediately, but asked:
"Do you want to act?"
After hearing this, Hua Zai fell into thinking.
He has not read the script, but he also learned from Wang Jin that the role of Liu Jianming is very important, it is the protagonist, and it requires very high acting skills. If he plays well, he might be able to win the Best Actor Award.
What actor wouldn’t want a golden movie star?
But Andy was a little unsure.
After all, all the movies he has acted in so far have been as idol stars.
It's not that he hasn't thought about transformation, but when it suddenly comes with such a big difficulty, he really doesn't have any confidence.
But then again, if someone gives you an opportunity, how could you not seize it?
So Andy said: "I do."
"That's good." Jiang Yan smiled and took out the script and handed it to Andy, and then continued, "Didn't you ask me why I chose you? I have a truth and a lie. Which one do you want to hear? "
"...Let's tell lies first."
"Because it's double Monday, Lian Jie and you, there are five of us in total. The first four are too expensive, and you are the cheapest."
Jiang Yan said with a smile.
"...Jiang Sheng, don't say that. There is still a gap between me and them."
Andy quickly denied it humbly.
Although he was the King of Heaven at this time, he was in the music world.
In the film industry, although he is also very popular, compared to the ones above, he is really not that far behind.
Needless to say, Fa Ge, Fang Shilong and Lian Jie are all working in Hollywood.
Zhou Xingxing is also in a state of dominance in the film industry.
But now I am just an idol star and have not yet been recognized by the film and television industry.
So how dare you admit that they are on the same level?
So Andy asked again: "What about the truth?"
"The truth is in the script."
Jiang Yan pointed at the script and said, "When I wrote the script, Liu Jianming's prototype was based on you."
This is definitely the truth. Jiang Yan's face does not turn red and his heart does not beat.
When Andy heard this, he was extremely surprised.
"Did you write the script?"
"How can it be false?" Jiang Yan said with a calm expression.
"Why are you based on me?" Andy asked again.
"You are my idol!" Jiang Yan smiled.
"..." Hua Zai stopped talking.
He felt that this answer seemed reasonable, but he always felt that it was not so reasonable.
But then Jiang Yan said again: "Actually, my original plan was to play opposite you. I would play Chen Yongren and you would play Liu Jianming."
"Unfortunately, I am still too young and I am not from Hong Kong, so I have great resistance and have to give up."
"But they said you can't do it either, saying your acting skills can't support this role."
"I don't think they are right!"
Jiang Yan waved his hand, looked into the distance, and said firmly: "You haven't done it yet, why do you say it can't be done?"
With that said, he said solemnly to Andy: "The so-called stereotypes are meant to be broken!"
"So, do you dare to let them see a different Hua Zai?"
When Hua Zai heard this, his eyes couldn't help but waver when he looked at Jiang Yan.
He has never met such sincere fans!
You can actually write a script for your idol!
Not only that, but the idol’s career development is also taken into consideration!
It's incredible.
And if you think about it carefully, what Jiang Yan said does make sense!
Why do I have to be positioned as an idol star?
I can also be a capable actor!
It doesn’t matter if the role is difficult, it has high gold content!
Andy frowned and thought for a minute or two.
Then he stretched out his hand, shook it firmly with Jiang Yan, and said solemnly: "Thank you! I will do my best!"
"good!"
Jiang Yan smiled, and then added, "Oh, by the way, Chao Wei plays Chen Yongren."
Andy: "..."
...
Andy finally accepted the role.
The salary of 8 million was lower than Hua Tsai's market price, but it was considered a high price during the financial crisis.
As for Chao Wei, so what if the relationship between Andy and Chao Wei is subtle.
He lacked money and an opportunity to successfully transform himself.
So unless he is stupid, he will give up an S-level project like "Infernal Affairs".
After the matter was almost settled, Andy invited Jiang Yan to dinner.
Jiang Yan naturally would not refuse.
Then the two took Wu Yong and Zhou Zhiruo to eat and chat at the dinner table, and soon they started talking about singer-related matters.
As the King of Music, Andy is naturally of extraordinary importance in the music industry, and he is also considered to be all-rounder. He can write lyrics, compose music, and sing.
So when they learned that Jiang Yan was also a singer, the two of them had more topics in common.
Talking about the excitement, Jiang Yan also took the opportunity to start the sheep-gathering mode.
There's no way, he just has itchy hands and can't get enough of it if he doesn't give it a try when meeting a great guy!
Besides, we are fans. Our idols are our own family members. It doesn’t matter if we are tired of chopping wood.
If you really want to say something, then I'll let you act in "Infernal Affairs", right...
So Jiang Yan said: "I have a song, Brother Hua, can you give me some advice?"
After hearing this, Andy naturally agreed.
Don't say that he is a financial sponsor, just say that Jiang Yan is his fan. If you make such a request, you will give him face.
So Jiang Yan asked the waiter to bring a pen and paper, and then he composed a song by Andy and under the eyes of Andy Wu and Zhou Zhiruo.
A few minutes later, Andy took the sheet music. After reading it once, he asked Jiang Yan excitedly:
"Can you sell this song to me?"
