685 No matter how awesome you are, can you be better than Hollywood?
The first time he saw Zheng Xuntuo and Quan Jixian, Jiang Yan had an intuition in his heart.
These two are lovers, and they have some conflicts. Among them, Zheng Xuntuo is somewhat hostile to himself.
As soon as his intuition came up, Jiang Yan had an idea on the spot.
Just cancel the show of authority and use soft knives instead.
Is cuckolding enough? A knife in the heart can kill people invisible.
Jiang Yan felt that although this was immoral, Jiang Yan still decided to act recklessly, just to vent his anger for no other reason. As for when to wear it, Jiang Yan was not in a hurry, it would be a matter of time anyway.
So in the following simple audition, Jiang Yan did not show any tendency to covet. He only talked about movies and not about feelings. When he looked at Jun Ji Hyun and spoke, his eyes were pure, professional and thoughtful, which made people awe-inspiring.
Zheng Xuntuo, who was watching from the sidelines, felt more and more that he had used the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman, so he felt even more ashamed.
"It seems that I have a good sense, but the final result depends on the original author's intention. When you and I go back to the company to record another section, I think it won't be a big problem."
In the tent, after the simple audition, Jiang Yan announced the good news with a smile.
Jun Ji-hyun happily bowed and thanked her on the spot. Tears could be seen in her eyes. It can be imagined that she was under tremendous psychological pressure as she boldly forced her to have an abortion this time.
"Okay, I still have some drama to do. You guys just stay here and don't run around. I'll see you later."
After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he mounted his horse again. The skill of "Hero" hadn't been collected yet, so he had to continue to collect it, otherwise he would be sorry for the sand he had eaten today.
After Jiang Yan rode away, Zheng Xuntuo looked at his back and said with emotion: "It is not without reason that he is as successful as he is now."
Jun Ji-hyun also smiled and nodded in approval.
In just ten minutes of communication, she had already felt Jiang Yan's powerful and unique aura.
Affinity, friendliness, and tolerance, but at the same time sharp, energetic, determined, and domineering.
This is Jiang Yan's personality charm.
Once you take a look at it, I'm afraid you won't forget it in the future.
Back on the set of "Hero", Jiang Yan ran with the horse team several times. When it was almost dark, Lao Mouzi finally announced the end of filming with satisfaction.
Jiang Yan also obtained a green skill at the same time: "Horse Whistle".
The "Horse Whistle" has the effect of attracting nearby horses that hear it. It can appease the horse group or summon individual horses.
This is the kind of magical skill on TV where when the heroes blow their whistles, their mounts will click and click.
Jiang Yan said he was quite satisfied and could use it in the future.
After finishing the filming, Jiang Yan rode his horse and came to Lao Mouzi to say hello.
Lao Mouzi is under great pressure now. The production cost of "Hero" is huge, and so many superstars have been invited. If it does not succeed at the box office, Lao Mouzi's wise life may be over.
In fact, his reputation is now on the verge of collapse.
Last year he directed his first commercial film "Happy Days" and cast Northeastern veterans Zhao and Dong Jie to act as a test of the commercial film industry. However, the box office was less than 5 million, so he gave up.
So much so that many people in the market now comment on Lao Mouzi as "the talent is exhausted".
It is also because of this that everyone is not very optimistic about the "ultra-high-cost" film "Hero".
Speaking of which, there is another reason why the market is not optimistic about this film, and it actually has to do with Jiang Yan.
Lao Mouzi invited Jiang Yan, but Jiang Yan did not act. This news could not be concealed, so many people started to make associations, and therefore they were not very optimistic about the film. Who made Jiang Yan win every battle so far and have a precise vision?
He is vicious and has never lost.
However, this issue was clarified after Jiang Yan arrived in Dunhuang this morning.
Facing the reporters waiting at the airport, Jiang Yan said directly that it was not that he was not optimistic, but his schedule was too tight. "My Sassy Girl" was about to start filming, and Hollywood had two new movies to start filming, so I really didn't have time, so
I have no choice but to invest, but since the lead actor doesn’t have time, he still has time to do extras. Look, isn’t that what happened today?
After the reporters heard this, the topic naturally turned to Jiang Yan's new film.
There are three films, two of which are in the United States. This topic is not trivial even if you think about it.
However, Jiang Yan did not have much answer to this, and just asked them to pay attention to the official website of Xingchenhai.
Having said that, Jiang Yan appeared on the set of "Heroes" and "willed to be an extra", which indeed greatly reduced the pressure on Lao Mouzi. For this, Lao Mouzi was also very grateful to Jiang Yan, but thank you for the filming.
There is still no time to be careless.
So under Lao Mouzi's constant pursuit of perfection, several shots that totaled less than 20 seconds were shot for several days. Jiang Yan came over on the last day and still ate a day's worth of sand.
"I think you are avenging your personal revenge." After the shooting, Jiang Yan complained to Lao Mouzi angrily.
When Lao Mouzi heard this, he showed his trademark northwest man's smile, and then said: "How about I break the sword or let me play it for you? I can't eat this sand for free."
"Oh, you are indeed avenging a personal vendetta, okay, bring me the contract, I will sign it now!"
".
That won’t work, I’m under enough pressure and I can’t move anymore.”
"It's okay, I'll take care of the pressure."
"Don't be kidding."
"You were the one who made the joke first.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yan said goodbye to Lao Mouzi and others, and headed to the airport with Quan Zhixian and others.
Han Sanpin is still on the set of "Hero". He will go with Lao Mouzi. After the location scene in Dunhuang ends today, the next stop is Jiuzhaigou. Han Sanpin will go with him. Manyu, Chao Wei and Lian Jie have already
There, Han Sanpin wanted to visit, but Jiang Yan went back to Hengdian directly, so we didn't go together.
Five hours later, Jiang Yan and his entourage landed at Yiwu Airport and returned to the Sea of Stars an hour later. It was already the early morning of the next day.
After returning to the sea of stars, Jiang Yan settled down for the two of them. Early the next morning, he pretended to audition Quan Zhixian with a video recorder, and then informed him an hour later that the author agreed, which meant that the audition was a complete success. Quan Zhixian
I almost jumped up on the spot with joy.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The matter is officially settled, and the next step is to enter the countdown to boot.
According to the time set by Jiang Yan to gain weight and Guo Zaiyong's time, "My Sassy Girl" will start filming in three weeks.
And during these three weeks, it’s all about publicity.
What Zheng Xuntuo has to do is to fully cooperate with Xingchen Hai. Don't say what you shouldn't say, and don't hide what you should say when the time comes. In short, you have to admit what you did wrong before.
However, there is no need to talk about these issues now. We have to talk about them before or after the filming of the movie starts.
At present, the domestic media and people are still paying close attention to the "My Sassy Girl" project.
However, Xingchenhai did not disclose much more information about the project, not even the audition results.
So at this time, many people on the Internet are actually guessing who the heroine is.
It’s anyone’s guess, from Mainland China to Hong Kong and Taiwan to Neon. Anyway, all the actresses who have participated in the previous auditions have been compared. Those who didn’t participate in the auditions also took the opportunity to join in the fun and gain some traffic.
Finally, the domestic online summary also came up with a ranking of female protagonists, among which the most popular one was actually Xiao Yanzi.
At this time, Xiao Yanzi's "military flag photo" had been published in magazines, but it had not completely become a big event in China, so her fame was still at its peak. In addition, Xiao Yanzi was indeed the same as "Song Mingxi" in the public's impression.
The characters are quite similar, so it’s understandable why he’s the most popular.
Ranked second is Zhang Baizhi. The reason is that Zhang Baizhi's "Liu Piaopiao" personality is very close to Song Mingxi's, and Zhang Baizhi's appearance is also very good. The only problem is that she is not from the mainland, so she ranks behind Xiao Yanzi.
Ranked third is Li Binbin. The biggest reason is that she is the first sister of Stars and Seas. Then there are "Qin Sirong", "Ling Chuchu", "Ying Ziyan" and "Amei" from "Shaolin Football", whose roles are also relatively similar.
The acting skills, looks and even the martial arts are all very close. Taken together, they rank firmly in third place.
The remaining female stars are a bit more mixed. Rather than ranking them for compatibility, they are more likely to be paired with each other. In the end, they were separated from the "casting" and became a competition of "who is most worthy of Jiang Yan"
.
However, no matter how crooked the building is, one thing is still clear to netizens, that is, Jiang Yan will basically not cooperate with South Korean actresses.
Therefore, there is no need to think about some South Korean female artists that some fans are looking forward to.
Because of this, the domestic reputation of Song Hye-kyo and the several South Korean artists she pulled out to support her has also become extremely poor.
This gave Song Hye Kyo, who was far away in South Korea, a headache.
She never imagined that after she was rejected for the role, she just lost her temper and made people feel sick, so how could so many netizens take it seriously, and how could things get so messed up?
big!
But what she didn't know was that an even bigger headache was yet to come.
On September 26, one week after Jun Ji-hyun came to China, some domestic media revealed the news under the topic of "Introduction of Film and Television Dramas for the 10th Anniversary of China and South Korea": "The works of South Korean artists named Song will not be introduced into the country."
With just a few words, those who are interested can see the logic behind it at a glance.
Jiang Yan must have done this!
Otherwise, why is it that the works named Song are not so good when everything else is good?
And this speculation was quickly confirmed the next day.
On September 27, some media revealed: "South Korea's three major channels will jointly introduce 6 TV series of Stars and Seas. Popular dramas such as "Shaobao 1", "Peerless Two Prouds", "Qin Qin Ji" and "Little Understanding" have been highly praised by South Korean media.
focus on".
Now, all fools knew what was going on. A certain "father" was so angry that Xiao Song cried and fainted in the toilet.
Someone in South Korea offended Jiang Yan, and Jiang Yan punished him. Not only that, but there was also a wave of reverse input, and the target of the output was South Korea, which is really rare in this era.
So domestic netizens were overjoyed, look, this is the face of my Jiang Shen!
This is actually the result of discussions between Jiang Yan and Han Sanpin.
Sino-South Korean relations are in a warming stage. Although it is difficult to pour cold water on the situation, at least some things must be toughened up.
Our country has such a huge market, and people are relying on you to make money, so why don’t you be tougher? So how can we just import without exporting?
And this time they are still being unreasonable, so you have to get what you deserve.
Han Sanpin felt the same way, so after telling the higher-ups, the effect came out within a week, and then there was a collective output of the Stars and Sea drama.
Such an effect is a good thing for Stars and Seas, and it is even better for domestic dramas.
So the people were also very happy, and in this mood, after Xingchenhai announced the next day that the heroine of "My Sassy Girl" was the original heroine Jun Ji-hyun, its acceptance rate was much higher.
Anyone who understands knows that this is an exchange of interests. The previous casting controversy suddenly became a pie falling from the sky. It can be said that Jiang Yan made a lot of money.
In addition, "My Sassy Girl" is a Sino-Korean love story after all. It uses Chinese people to play South Koreans. Many people also have some opinions, so now the result is back to the original, which is the best.
Of course, some media will have different views. For example, if this matter is going back and forth, it is still a South Korean actor, so weren’t the previous auditions just for fun?
However, this view was quickly dismissed, because what Jiang Yan did here was indeed blameless.
The actresses who entered the second round of auditions have all been given opportunities to star in other projects of Stars and Seas. This is definitely a reflection of Jiang Yan’s character. Even if they did not enter the second round, the right ones have more or less been invited to some projects.
, so people in the industry are eager to see Jiang Yan come back a few more times.
But really speaking, the main reason why the media and the public have such high acceptance is actually because the project itself is not taken seriously.
"My Sassy Girl" is actually viewed by the public as a movie that makes fans' dreams come true.
Although the novel is quite interesting and people are paying a lot of attention to it, it is definitely not that high.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Because in comparison, paying attention to this movie is obviously not as worthy of attention as the massive and heavy content in the latest announcement of Stars and Sea.
On September 28, the official website of Xingchenhai released an announcement.
"Kill Bill 2" has been completed and the film is expected to be introduced into the country.
In addition to this old IP, Xingchenhai's new movie "Fast and Furious" in Hollywood has officially entered the launch stage, which introduced some information about the project in more detail.
For example, the production cost is estimated to be 40 million U.S. dollars, and it is cooperating with Hollywood Universal, with Jiang Yan as the screenwriter, and one-third of the domestic staff participating behind the scenes, etc.
In addition to "The Fast and the Furious", Xingchenhai also revealed that another work "Prison Break" written by Jiang Yan has also officially started, and Xingchen's first sister Li Binbin will participate.
In addition, the first preview trailer of "Kung Fu Panda" will be released globally on October 1st.
There are four projects in total, all of which are "international level". This has greatly raised the profile of Xingchenhai and also attracted countless reporters to Xingchenhai.
Jiang Yan also took the opportunity to ask Wu Yong to hold a press conference to answer reporters' questions.
"'Kill Bill 2' is still directed by Quentin, and the screenplay is also completed by Quentin. There will be Chinese actors in this film."
""Fast and Furious" was inspired by Jiang Yan when he was working on "Extreme Challenge Racing" in 1999. There will be Chinese in the protagonist group, yes, it is the protagonist group. It is still to be determined whether Jiang Yan himself will star.
As you know, Jiang Yan is relatively casual in this regard.
After the success of the first part, this project will also become a series."
"The TV series "Prison Break" was inspired by Jiang Yan's novel "Redemption" by Stephen King. Don't worry, there are no copyright issues.
Yes, Li Binbin will star, but the specific number of roles will depend on the ratings of the TV series. If the ratings are low, the entire series will also face failure. For details, you can learn about the relevant regulations in the United States.
If successful? This will still become a series.
For the first three projects, unless they need to be kept confidential, Wu Yong basically answers all questions.
Among the questions raised by reporters, the relatively sharp one is: Why not use all Chinese staff?
During this period, many Chinese people actually had too perfect ideas about Lao America. They thought that Lao America would tolerate everything. For example, when "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was successful in Lao America, they thought that this was a reflection of the inclusiveness of the lighthouse, so naturally
I would think that other Chinese films would also be successful.
Jiang Yan has naturally considered this kind of problem, but he doesn't want to fight back head-on, because he knows that this won't work. This layer of filters will slowly be torn off after 20 years, so instead of being tough now, it's better to
The angle was changed, so everyone just listened to Wu Yong say:
"You all know that these three films are all about crime and violence. It is difficult to review domestically. They can be filmed and released abroad. However, considering that they are purely commercial films, everything is based on box office and ratings. With an all-China team,
It’s easy to get acclimated.”
When the reporters heard this, they were speechless and couldn't help but laugh.
They felt that Jiang Yan was a little too individual.
Looking at Jiang Yan's successful films, they all seem to be related to violence and darkness. Isn't "Infernal Affairs" a typical example?
So from this perspective, it is indeed more appropriate for a film like "Prison Break" to be shot abroad and use foreign actors as the protagonists.
However, someone also asked at this time: "When will Jiang Yan make a more normal film that promotes Chinese culture?"
Wu Yong smiled and replied: "Yes, "Kung Fu Panda" is prepared for this."
Reporters immediately asked about the specific situation, and Wu Yong said, "I actually don't know the details, but I can tell you that this film is a collaboration with Shanghai Art Studio. Jiang Yan said that this film will make the whole world happy."
The world has re-recognized the level of our country’s animation industry.”
The reporters were stunned for a while after hearing this, and then asked some relevant questions willingly, but Wu Yong no longer revealed anything about "Kung Fu Panda", so the reporters turned to other topics.
As for what to re-understand the level of the animation industry?
Some people care, but not many people take it seriously.
After all, it is made by a domestic manufacturer, so no matter how awesome it is, can it be better than Hollywood?
So in the newspaper the next day, everyone recorded the exact words. As for their expectations, they were kept conservative.
Chinese people don't expect to be in the limelight, but they just want not to be embarrassed.
The more conservative ones even warned them not to speak too harshly.
Therefore, the topic of "Kung Fu Panda" is far less popular than the other four projects. Among them, "Prison Break" has attracted the most attention because the novel of the same name has begun to be published.
However, on October 1st, everything was different.
