Chapter 866 Im going to make a guest appearance!

I can't even decide on a hair style, not to mention that there are many people who are not suitable for shaving their heads and will expose their shortness.

The face shape that could have been modified with hairstyle was completely exposed once the head was shaved, and could not be hidden at all.

It is also difficult to communicate with Xiao Long. He has made it very clear before that our TV series has very high standards and strict requirements. Don't just try to get by wearing a fake hood.

Besides, the reason why fake headgear is called fake headgear is because it is too fake. The commonly used fake headgear today, because the shape is still bald, is just a fake headgear directly pasted on top of the actor's real hair. Yes.

When it was filmed, the lighting was a little worse and the quality of the headgear was a little worse. Even in the finished TV series, the audience could clearly see the actor's darkened real hair under the fake headgear.

Really, very obvious.

Wu Di...

Is he really ready to shave his head?

Although Jianbing was feeling uneasy, Wu Di still patted his chest and assured that there would be no problem at all. Since the person involved had already said that there was no problem, it was hard for Jianbing to persuade him.

No matter what Wu Di's original intention was for starring in this TV series, Jianbing finally did a big thing. He attracted the best new director for Xiao Long!

What a huge display!

Pancakes have countless merits!

…………

"Didn't you just promise to Lao Zhang not to make a TV series? Why did you change your mind again?"

"Or is it just a guest appearance for a few days?"

"What are you planning?"

When she heard that Wu Di was going to make a guest appearance in a TV series starring Jianbing, Zhang Feng immediately became angry. If she had known that Wu Di was going to not only make a guest appearance, but also play the role of a eunuch, she would probably have been unable to even hold a calm conversation and would have flipped the table.

!

"There's no special purpose. Jianbing and I haven't seen each other for a long time. We're both brothers. We're just going to guest star for a few days. Isn't it nice to get together with him?"

"There are so many movies with starring roles, but you didn't choose any of them, but you agreed to make a guest appearance. You said there was no special reason. Do you think I would believe it?"

Zhang Feng just stared at Wu Di, trying to force the truth out of him. However, all this was doomed to be in vain.

Wasted effort.

How could Wu Di tell the truth?

What could he say?

He can't say that I just took the initiative to go to see my sisters!

Beauties, little beauties, there are little beauties everywhere, there are so many beauties!

What man would miss such a good opportunity?

Even if I play the role of a eunuch, I still want to go!

What's more, the current Zhang Feng doesn't know about the subsequent development. How could she know that the influence of a TV series far exceeds that of the annual box office champion, the annual top movie, and the award winner will all have to give way to us.

Let them see what a real drama king is!

How could Wu Di miss such a good opportunity?

Even if it's just a cameo, it will be a big talking point in the future. That kind of participation cannot be achieved no matter how many movies you make.

Interesting, really interesting!

However, although Boss Wu is full of enthusiasm and wants to participate, it is a pity that Xiao Long does not support him. Not to mention guest appearances like Wu Di, even Jianbing is still staying in the capital!

Anyway, the script has been given to him. Basically, the content of the first twenty episodes will not be changed much. Now Jianbing has started to memorize the lines.

As for the casting, it is still running at a very fast pace, so even if Wu Di is anxious, he can only endure it. It seems that just one cameo is not enough to pass the time.

Still looking for a new work!

Which one is suitable to shoot?

What theme is it?

I have taken so many photos of period costumes that I almost feel sick. In the past year, Wu Di will never touch them again.

As for the cameo who needs to have his head shaved, it is just a cameo anyway, and it only takes two or three days. Whether he can go there in the end or not is still uncertain!

Wu Di wanted to take on a modern drama. Although the last maze was set in a modern setting, because it was a rural theme, the people in the film were gray and the atmosphere was dark.

To be honest, although Boss Wu is naturally beautiful, he can't bear such a shot, and his beauty is somewhat diminished.

It wasn’t very enjoyable to shoot.

What's more, in the current movie market, apart from some magical costume films, modern films are also showing a tendency to crush the box office.

If the next movie still wants to hit the box office, then a modern drama is a must.

Looks like I need to find a romantic movie to shoot!

Love, light comedy!

This is Wu Di's clear positioning for his next movie. Many people may say that Boss Wu is too confident.

Who are you? Can you take pictures of whatever you want?

Do directors and screenwriters all revolve around you?

Boss Wu just wants to say that your thinking is too simple. With Boss Wu’s current status, he can’t just shoot whatever he wants?

I don’t dare to brag about big productions, but it’s still easy to get a good copy of a romance film with a small or medium budget.

Having made many very difficult movies, Wu Di now also wants to make some lighter themes to change his mood.

For an actor of his type, in fact, the best choice for transitioning from skin-changing to modern dramas is suspense films.

Generally speaking, under the premise that the investment is medium and the script is guaranteed to a certain extent, suspense films are actually a good choice for Boss Wu at this stage.

Why do you say that?

On the one hand, although Wu Di's previous works have achieved good box office results, in fact, his personal box office appeal has not yet been verified.

Maze, the current box office is still good, but in the end, this only proves that Wu Di's appeal is only at the level of tens of millions.

The most.

No more.

The box office of Labyrinth has now exceeded 50 million. To be honest, for a movie of its cost, it is more than enough to make back the money.

However, this movie actually has little to do with Wu Di personally.

On the one hand, the director's quality is really good and the story is exquisite. This is the main reason.

On the other hand, Wu Di's fans did play a relatively big role. The box office was stable in the early stage, and even in the battle with the leading blockbusters, he was not left too far behind. It was all due to the efforts of the fans.

Of course, Boss Wu also worked hard personally, and the five million in the early stage were invested bit by bit.

However, in order to ease the pressure of repaying debts, Boss Wu did not use all the funds, but deliberately retained a part.

This is also because after careful consideration by a professional team, the film’s subsequent box office performance is still good and fully meets expectations.

Since the expectations have been met, Boss Wu's money can be saved.

Even so, Labyrinth still doesn't prove Wu Di's box office appeal as an actor.

What is the so-called box office appeal?

It was originally a low-budget movie, but everything from the director to the team was mediocre, even a little bit bad.

Even if it sucks, it can still earn hundreds of millions at the box office.

The audience blindly chooses you and walks into the cinema when they see your name. This is the real box office appeal.

But now Wu Di obviously does not have such ability, he can still see this very clearly.

In fact, if there is no labyrinth, Wu Di's next film will also be positioned as a low-cost suspense film. According to Wu Di's evaluation criteria, in this era, low-cost suspense films are the easiest to achieve both word-of-mouth and box office success.

movie type.

In this way, Boss Wu, who is separated from the two popular little stars Sisi and Cifang, can prove to the audience and the industry that he alone can have great box office appeal.

The success of the skin transplant is also due to her.

However, it is a pity that Maze Pearl is ahead.

So, in a short period of time, Wu Di can no longer play in the same genre, and, to put it bluntly, even if he makes another suspense film, it will be difficult to surpass Labyrinth.

If you do this, won't you destroy your own brand?

Putting aside suspense films, only medium-sized romantic light comedies are the genres that tend to produce dark horses at the box office in this era.

Of course commercial blockbusters are good, they have high box office, if they are well filmed, the actors will be more valued in the industry, but in this era, there are not that many commercial blockbusters.

In short, San Yan Er Pai is a commercial blockbuster, and Mengshi Orphans is also a commercial blockbuster. You see, in this era, this type of popular commercial blockbuster is still the same!

There are still no traces of the dazzling suspense blockbusters and high-cost science fiction films that will be seen in future generations. Even if Wu Di wanted to make one, he didn't have the conditions.

The current film market is far from developed to the point where it can afford such a high-cost film, and such a high-investment film cannot be profitable at the box office.

As a result, medium-budget romance films have become dark horses at the box office, with a large number of blockbusters emerging in batches.

It can be regarded as a typical example of a small and generous person.

As for Wu Di, he has tried many action and suspense films before. On the contrary, he has never made a romantic film that best suits his image and temperament.

It's somewhat of a waste of resources.

Romantic atmosphere, wonderful encounters, a little harmless jokes, and a combination of handsome men and beautiful women are the only magic weapons for winning light love comedies in this era.

Take a look, is there anything suitable?

After determining the route, Wu Di took over the piles of scripts and re-evaluated them, and stopped reading those that did not fit the genre.

The theme of some scripts is indeed modern love, but Wu Di really doesn't like the story. He is not the kind of youth pain literature lover.

I really don’t like that kind of greasy, sticky love story that hurts spring and autumn. Moreover, judging from Wu Di’s experience, this type of youth pain love movie was still very popular for a period of time.

But their performance at the box office is generally no better than that of romantic comedies and youth pain movies. The upper limit of the box office is 200 million.

This can only be achieved ten years later, in the era of huge box office expansion, and currently, it is only at the level of tens of millions at best.

As for the light love comedy, if it is done well, it is possible to exceed 100 million!

Under the premise that everyone's costs are similar, investors will of course be more inclined to those cheerful light comedies.

The tone is warm and the box office is high, so why not?

"Eh?"

"Did this script actually get handed to me?"

Wu Di pulled out a stack of scripts, glanced at the title, and started talking to himself.

"This image doesn't quite fit in!"

Wu Di had seen almost all of the various theater blockbusters of this era, especially the romantic light comedies, which he would never miss.

Mainly because at that time, Boss Wu had already started to fall in love. Those pretty young ladies loved to watch this kind of light love comedy.

Although Wu Di was not very interested, he was not completely uninterested. They forced him to watch many movies.

In his impression, the film in his hand also received very good reviews. On the one hand, it was a dark horse at the box office and received much attention at the same time.

On the other hand, the film's success was not limited to the box office, but the audience's ratings were also among the best among romantic light comedies of the time.

It can even be said to be a little more exaggerated. Even if it were ten years later, there would not even be such a smooth love comedy with fresh and refined laughs and reasonable arrangement.

If Boss Wu can act in this drama, it can really be regarded as a good achievement!

Although this type of movies also has a clear limitation, most of them are chick movies. The so-called chick movies are movies with female love as the core of the story, which is an expression of light comedy.

Generally speaking, in this type of movie, the first protagonist will be an actress, and most of the male actors will be supporting actresses.

Some actors are not willing to star in this type of movie because they think it has no structure and the central idea is about falling in love, which is boring.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I also have to support the actress, which really has no status, etc.

Boss Wu is indifferent to these problems.

To match?

In the skin change, didn't Wu Di match the two little flowers?

At that time, our boss Wu enjoyed acting with them and had no objection at all.

As for the lack of pattern, some people shouldn’t think too highly of themselves. Who do you think you are?

What structure are we talking about?

But they all make movies, either to make money or to win awards. In fact, many male stars love to shoot movies with male protagonists, such as martial arts movies and action movies. These movies often do not necessarily achieve high box office.

As for the prize, don’t even think about it, there is no hope.

Generally speaking, those action movies also focus on the design of the movements and the excitement of the scenes, and they do not have high requirements for the actors' performance.

That being the case, for this type of movie, either you can handle the box office, or, in terms of awards, there is basically no hope.

Those who can get a piece of the pie are usually the action directors, photographers and other behind-the-scenes staff. As actors, they don’t get much benefit.

Why do you look down on chick flicks?

Comparatively speaking, the shooting cost of a chick flick is much lower than that of a qualified action movie, and the box office results are not low either.

If you were an investor, would you choose to make a chick flick with a low cost and high returns, or an action movie with a high cost and a high return rate?

There is no doubt that chick flicks are definitely the best choice.

As for male actors, especially those with good looks like Wu Di, although they may suffer a little bit in terms of placement in chick flicks, they will definitely not suffer in terms of image creation.

Think about it, since it's a chick flick, the image of the heroine's spouse will definitely not be very bad.

Otherwise, how can we satisfy the female audience’s vision of a beautiful love life?
