Like the crew of "Skin Change", the crew of "The Master" is also a model of co-production, with Pearl Capital and domestic capital accounting for half each, and this trend can also be seen from the choice of leading actors.
Needless to say, the person who plays the leading male wife is Ma Ge, who is popular on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. He is a senior, very popular, and has a very high reputation in the entire Asian entertainment market.
No one can say anything if he is the first lead actor.
The heroine is also Zou Lu, who is favored by co-productions. She has won awards and specializes in literary films. She looks very stylish.
This kind of matching model of male celebrities and female domestic entertainers is also a common method for many co-productions.
To paraphrase what a famous director said back then, we just want to use other people’s money to praise our own people.
Haha...
Who doesn’t have a hometown friendship?
According to the requirements for co-productions at that time, the male and female protagonists could not use the same region at the same time. So in terms of male and female protagonists, it seems that they are both starring, but in fact, it is usually the male lead who reaps the box office results.
Therefore, it can be seen that in the golden years of co-productions before 2012, there were endless co-productions, either one star, one domestic entertainment, two male leads double-starring, and the remaining supporting roles could be chosen at will. p>
Or it's like Master, where the first male lead is chosen by Mingzhu, and the leading female lead is selected by the internal entertainment company. However, such female leads usually fall to some actresses who have a good relationship with Mingzhu Company.
For example, the female lead in "Sex is a Knife on the Head" back then.
In many cases, these co-productions do not pay attention to the compatibility between the actors and the plot, but only focus on the relationship. If you have a relationship, you can be included as long as it is almost the same. It doesn't matter. Even if you were born for this role, no one will care about it. For example, Brother Hua is like this.
Who came up with this idea?
Let Brother Hua play the role of the master who talks a lot?
This tone is really inconsistent.
Wu Di was puzzled by this in his previous life.
At first glance, Hua Ge seems to be the kind of man with a modern sense. His temperament is indeed both solemn and humorous, but he is also the kind of elegant ancient man.
Please!
Forget it!
I still remember Brother Hua’s famous saying that asking people in Pearl to speak Mandarin would be life-threatening. As for Master, it’s obvious that he can only speak Mandarin.
This is very difficult.
Zhang Feng paid ten days' salary in advance. Counting the 600 yuan he earned on the set of "Shred the Devil", Wu Di earned 1,600 yuan in one day.
For those big stars who make two million a day, this amount of money is not enough, but for Wu Di, who plays Wu Di in the Hengdian small group, it is a huge gain.
Wu Di spent a lot of money to buy a new bicycle. When riding it, he felt like he was floating in the breeze. It felt great.
When the moon comes out, will the stars be far away?
In the eyes of thousands of Hengpiaos, the stars in the Hengdian sky are exceptionally bright. Seeing those stars is like becoming a big star.
In the heart of every Hengpiao, there is a dream of becoming a star.
Although the road to becoming a star is winding and even full of thorns, it is more difficult than the single-plank bridge of the college entrance examination.
However, it still cannot stop people from wanting to be famous.
The reason is probably that those who achieve success in the college entrance examination are the ones with real talent and practical learning. Without real ability, there is a high probability that you will not be able to break into a prestigious school.
When it comes to being famous, there are much more uncertainties and chances.
Everyone wants to be Shunliu, but there is only one Shunliu.
Compared with others, Wu Di's desire for money and his desire to become famous and make big money are more urgent.
Hengpiao’s ultimate wish is just to be a well-known 18th-line earner, achieve financial freedom, and be able to buy a house in the Capital City, a small suite with three bedrooms and one living room.
That’s enough!
But Wu Di can’t!
He still owes 2 billion!
Even if you earn 2 million a day, you still have to pay back a hundred days!
The sky has finally darkened, but the sky in Hengdian is still brightly lit. At night, it is also the battlefield for Hengdian people and the soul of Hengdian!
The Pingyan Cave at night is really full of suspicion. Unlike the major palace studios, there are not many tourists here at Pingyan Cave, even when it is open for tourism on weekdays.
In the entire Hengdian film and television city system, it is a relatively marginal area.
Only large-scale war scenes would think of this. Wu Di followed Da Fei's instructions and came to the entrance of the scenic spot to gather.
When Da Fei saw him, he led him to the crew without explanation.
There was no need to put on makeup. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly. The girl in charge of clothing gave him a set of plain white clothes and asked him to change into them.
"Eh~"
"What does this smell like? It stinks."
The life in Hengpiao is not as novel and comfortable as outsiders imagine. He cannot eat well or sleep well.
The most important thing is that for extras, the rented clothes are often recycled. By the time it is your turn, you will already have sweat-smelling clothes and foot-smelling shoes.
There is nothing clean.
"Aren't all extras' clothes like this?"
"Why are you so pretentious?"
Xiao Wu is good at everything, but his pretentiousness often makes people angry. This is what Da Fei dislikes the most.
Dafei himself is an open-minded person. I remember when I first came to Hengdian, everything here was relatively wild and not as formal as it is now.
At that time, I suffered too much.
It’s not like he’s out yet.
"Young man, you must endure more hardships, you are right!" Yuan Dafei patted Wu Di on the shoulder and encouraged him.
Having said that, I don’t know what Wu Di is thinking.
To be fair, Wu Di's hardware conditions are much better than Da Fei's.
He may not be content with this hardship.
But it doesn’t matter if you fly big.
He hopes that Wu Di will become more and more successful. In the future, if Wu Di can stand out and take him with him, let alone an agent, he can be an assistant, or even open a company as a partner, and he will be prosperous. p>
Therefore, although Dafei was very curious about what happened to Wu Di on the skin-changing crew, when he realized that Wu Di had no intention of actively revealing it, he did not ask further questions.
Maintaining a sense of distance is a quality that a qualified celebrity agent should have. Although Wu Di has not yet become famous, let alone hired him as Da Fei as his agent, Da Fei is already using this set of standards to demand himself.
This is called being prepared.
"Come here quickly, tie them up, get used to them, and we'll start shooting right away!"
Wu Di followed the big team in a daze to where he was standing in the cave, and suddenly heard the little man in the distance shouting this.
I felt energetic immediately.
Tie it up?
Is this some kind of binding/tying/playing?
Sure enough!
Thinking that Gu Mei, the director of Fuzi, was also a female director, Wu Di became extremely nervous, and all kinds of weird thoughts popped up.
Most of the group performers around me are young people, but there are also men and women.
While Wu Di was observing the enemy's situation, his little hands were tied several times with a finger-thick hemp rope.
Tang Monk Meat!
Fresh Tang Monk meat!
Eat it, eat it!
Immortal!
Both men and women in Journey to the West want to eat Tang Monk's meat, but none of the fairies know whether Tang Monk's meat is delicious or not.
It might even hurt your teeth!
Looking at the tied hands, more than a dozen people were strung together by a long rope. They really looked like Tang Monk who was tied up and waiting to be cooked.
Coupled with Xiao Wu Di's thin skin and tender flesh, this dark cave is also quite a bit like Pansi Cave.
Where's that goblin?
Where is it?
"I want to see the director!"
Such a sound suddenly erupted from the noisy crowd.
