Chapter 365 The King of Comedy (Part 2) (Daily Update 12,000~)
Home is the harbor of Zhou Xingchi’s soul.
Therefore, after Zhou Xingchi becomes famous, he will still live with his mother and choose his own family members to become shareholders of his company.
At this time, his mother's encouragement was the motivation for Zhou Xingchi to continue to persevere.
"Yeah." Listening to his mother's encouraging tone, Zhou Xingchi nodded heavily.
Because they live in a small house a few hundred feet tall, there are only two rooms, and Zhou Xingchi just sleeps in the living room on weekdays.
One is Zhou's mother's room, and the other is the room for her elder sister and younger sister.
At night, after his family members all went to bed, Zhou Xingchi got up on the sofa, and then rehearsed the part he would perform tomorrow in as low a voice as possible.
Stephen Chow also figured out that since the director would not give him a chance to do it again, he would have no choice but to act out his own ideas for the first time, which would be good.
With the hope of becoming famous, Zhou Xingchi rehearsed until dawn.
Early the next morning, Zhou Xingchi got up early without anyone shouting. He ate some leftovers from last night and shouted, "I'm going to work!"
Then I ran out of the house and took a bus to the filming location.
but
"Xingzi, you don't need to come back to this play. The stage has arranged for other actors to take your place!" Qiu Nanlong didn't even come forward. The deputy director came out and informed Zhou Xingchi that he shouldn't come again.
.
Zhou Xingchi felt as if he was struck by lightning. He was stunned for a long time and said quickly, "Director Huang, did I do something wrong? I can change it. Please tell Director Qiu, can you not replace me?"
Being able to become a starring actor is what Zhou Xingchi dreams of. Although he has starred in a unit drama once before, it is not enough for him to realize his desire to become a star.
Now I finally have such an opportunity to actually star in a TV series, and I have worked hard enough, but now I am told that I don’t need to do it anymore.
Such a huge gap is not acceptable to Zhou Xingchi.
"Xingzi, I'm not telling you, you don't know how to act or be a human being, so just give up!" the assistant director said patiently. He has also seen Zhou Xingchi's performance during this period. It can be said that Zhou Xingchi works hard.
, that must be hard work, but that serious temper is really annoying.
Every time everyone has finished, Zhou Xingchi still has to go over and let the director shoot it again. Is this showing how hard he works?
A crew is not afraid of everyone working together, but is afraid of one person working hard alone.
Therefore, there are not many people in the crew who have a good impression of Zhou Xingchi. Now that he has been fired from the starring role, to be honest, many people are secretly happy.
What are you doing? Every day it seems like you are the only one working hard and we are all useless. The key point is that if you had Zhou Runfa's acting skills, everyone would recognize it, but look at what you are doing.
Zhou Xingchi continued to beg, hoping that he could stay, but the assistant director refused directly.
At this time, Zhou Xingchi saw a young actor coming over. Zhou Xingchi knew this actor, his name was Yin Tianjiang, and he was a newly popular actor in Taiwan.
With the strong rise of ATV, there have been some deviations in the development of TVB, and some actors who have never appeared in another time and space have also appeared.
Yin Tianjiang glanced at Zhou Xingchi with a look of disdain in his eyes. Just after returning home from work last night, he received a call from the station asking him to replace Zhou Xingchi as the male lead in this TV series. After hearing this, Yin Tianjiang was naturally very happy.
Nowadays, the competition in Taiwan is so fierce. He is really lucky to be able to star in a TV series. Thinking that he has been taking the upper-level route during this period, inviting producers and directors to dinner, it is still effective.
"Director Huang, where should I change clothes?" Yin Tianjiang just glanced at Zhou Xingchi, then said nothing and asked Director Huang directly.
"Oh, it's inside, hurry in!" Director Huang said with a smile.
"Thank you, Director Huang. By the way, Director Huang, our shooting task is so heavy right now. The scenes we shot in the past two days have to be postponed to reshoots. Don't waste your time on people who don't care!" He walked towards the crew.
Yin Tianjiang who was walking suddenly said.
Director Huang smiled and said, "I understand, I understand."
The two turned around and left, leaving Zhou Xingchi alone here at a loss.
But at this time, someone came over to the crew again. Because they were filming an indoor scene, anyone who came would be discovered immediately, and if they were not from the crew, they would be persuaded to leave.
So when this stranger came to the set, security guards immediately surrounded him.
"Hello sir, we are filming here right now, please get out of here!"
The visitor smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I heard that Zhou Xingchi is filming here, so I want to talk to him about some things, and then I'll leave!"
"Oh, that's it." The security guard nodded, then turned around and shouted, "Xingzi, someone is looking for you!"
The security guard's voice was a bit loud, and many people heard it, but no one took it too seriously. People from the production crew often came to visit the class, and they thought they were just visiting the class.
Zhou Xingchi walked over in a daze and looked at the young man in a suit and glasses in front of him without showing much interest.
"I am Zhou Xingchi!" When he said this, Zhou Xingchi was still looking in the direction of the crew, with more expectations and unwillingness in his eyes.
"Hello, I am Zhong Guowei from Fengge Entertainment. Our company has a movie and we hope you can star in it, so I wanted to see if you have time to come to our company recently!" Zhong Guowei said with a smile on his face.
Although Zhou Xingchi is just a young actor who has just become famous, Jiang Zhiqiang personally ordered him to come over and invite Zhou Xingchi. This left Zhong Guowei, the deputy manager of the artist management department of Fengge Entertainment, at a loss!
"Oh, what do I have?" Zhou Xingchi said and finally shouted loudly, looking at Zhong Guowei in disbelief.
"You mean Fengge Entertainment asked me to film a movie?"
Zhong Guowei smiled and nodded. He had seen this situation too many times, and his expression did not change at all because of Zhou Xingchi's excitement.
"Yes, it was an order personally issued by our chairman. We hope to invite Mr. Zhou to come to our company to star in a movie. I don't know when Mr. Zhou will be free." Zhong Guowei said with a faint smile.
"There is time, there is time, I have time now!" Zhou Xingchi said excitedly.
Zhong Guowei smiled and said, "That's great. If Mr. Zhou has time now, let's go there now!"
"Okay!" Zhou Xingchi nodded repeatedly.
Then Zhou Xingchi and Zhong Guowei left the set under the dull gaze of the security guard.
There was some commotion here, and naturally curious people came over to ask the security guard what had just happened.
First came some other security guards and extras. When they heard that street boy Zhou Xingchi had asked Fengge Entertainment to hire him to film a movie, everyone's first thought was...
This is impossible!
But no one knows that this kind of thing cannot be fake.
Soon a strange atmosphere filled the crew. No one expected that the plot would turn around so completely. Zhou Xingchi, who had just been abandoned by their crew, would immediately receive an invitation from Fengge Entertainment.
Isn’t this too dramatic?
Especially the expressions on the faces of director Qiu Nanlong and Yin Tianjiang, who replaced Zhou Xingchi, were even more exciting. This also led to a series of mistakes made by the crew during filming today, and the entire crew spent their time under Qiu Nanlong's angry curses.
As for Stephen Chow, he had already boarded a car heading to Fengge Entertainment, and the driver was Zhong Guowei.
Just now, Zhong Guowei also called Fengge Entertainment through Tunan 1100, explaining that he was bringing Zhou Xingchi there now.
Zhou Xingchi was extremely excited at this time, and he felt a little confused while sitting in the car.
Zhong Guowei smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, just perform normally when you get to the company!"
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Zhong." Zhou Xingchi said seriously. At this time, his mind flashed through the countless books on acting that he had read, and he was thinking about how he should behave if there was an audition plot.
Soon the car drove to Yaoguang Building.
After parking the car in the underground parking garage, Zhong Guowei took Zhou Xingchi to Fengge Entertainment.
When he heard that the front desk could take Zhou Xingchi directly to Jiang Zhiqiang's office, he was slightly startled, but then he took Zhou Xingchi and walked over.
When he pushed open the door of Jiang Zhiqiang's room, he showed a hint of surprise. In the office were not only Jiang Zhiqiang, but also Wu Jianye, the mysterious boss behind Fengge Entertainment, and a somewhat familiar man in his 30s.
.
"Director Wu, Mr. Jiang, I have brought you!" Zhong Guowei said quickly, "This is Zhou Xingchi!"
Jiang Zhi forced a smile and said, "Okay, you can go down now!"
Looking at Zhou Xingchi, Jiang Zhiqiang actually didn't know why Wu Jianye was so interested in this baby-faced actor and actually called the actor to his office in person.
You must know that Wu Jianye's current status can be said to be almost universally promoted in Xiangjiang. There is no need to meet such an actor with no reputation in person.
Yes, in Jiang Zhiqiang's eyes, Zhou Xingchi is an actor with no reputation at all.
Zhou Xingchi stayed in the room and looked nervously at Wu Jianye and Jiang Zhiqiang. He did not expect that it was not only Jiang Zhiqiang who saw him, but also the mysterious boss Wu Jianye.
This left Zhou Xingchi in a daze for a moment, but he soon became convinced that a pie in the sky might really fall on him.
"Sit down, don't be nervous." Wu Jianye smiled and asked Zhou Xingchi to sit down.
This was also the first time Wu Jianye met Zhou Xingchi after his rebirth. Wu Jianye was actually very curious about this future king of comedy.
I believe that every boy born in the 1980s and 1990s in China should have watched Zhou Xingchi's movies. Many times, Zhou Xingchi's movies have accompanied everyone in a certain period of difficult days and made them smile from the heart.
Zhou Xingchi sat next to the man in his thirties, and he could clearly feel that this man was actually a little nervous like himself.
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "This time, Director Liu and Mr. Zhou Xingchi"
"Director Wu, you can just call me Xingzi." Zhou Xingchi said quickly.
"The reason why I called Director Liu and Xingzi here is because Fengge Entertainment now has a movie in hand. I hope the two of them can cooperate and join the big family of Fengge Entertainment," Wu Jianye said with a smile.
The reason why they were called here this time is revealed.
That man in his thirties is naturally Liu Zhenwei, Putao.
And the movie Wu Jianye prepared was naturally the "The Gambler" that made Zhou Xingchi famous in Hong Kong.
Zhou Xingchi immediately said happily, "It has always been my wish to join Fengge Entertainment. But"
Wu Jianye looked at Zhou Xingchi and asked, "Is there any problem?"
Zhou Xingchi said in embarrassment, "My current contract with TVB has not expired yet."
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "This is not a problem, we will help you solve it."
When Zhou Xingchi heard that Fengge Entertainment helped him resolve the contract matter, he naturally had no objection. Being able to join Fengge Entertainment and star in a movie was something he didn't even dare to think about this morning, but now he suddenly
If it hits you on the head, what else is there to think about?
As for Liu Zhenwei, it is even easier to solve. He has just finished filming the sequel of "The School of Ghosts", also known as "The Ghost School", and has also left Yingzhijie Film Company. He is a free man and can join Fengge Entertainment.
Naturally, this is the best thing for him.
Then Wu Jianye took out the script of "The Gambler" and handed it to the two of them, "The company will shoot this movie this year and release it next year. I can tell you that the company is very optimistic about this movie. I hope you two don't
Disappointed the company’s expectations!”
In fact, in later generations, although everyone said that Marvel created the first movie universe, in fact, that is completely nonsense. As early as the 1980s and 1990s, Xiangjiang Film played with the concept of a movie universe.
The "God of Gamblers Series" and "Five Lucky Stars Series" are the best among them, but due to copyright issues, the filming was a bit messy, especially the "God of Gamblers Series", including "God of Gamblers", "Gambler", "Gambler"
"Holy" series, due to copyright issues, the connection between the three parties is not close.
This time Wu Jianye plans to completely control this series in the hands of Fengge Entertainment, so it will naturally be even closer to this series in another time and space!
It is precisely because of these reasons that Wu Jianye also made some subtle changes in the script of the movie "The Gambler".
After basically finishing the matter of "The Gambler", Wu Jianye's time in Xiangjiang is almost over.
Finally, I spent a good day at home with Gong Ying, and then spent a day playing in Xiangjiang with Zhou Huimin. It was time for Wu Jianye to return home.
