He Xin once visited Cheng Hao's family in the name of visiting a doctor. The house was not big, and the layout was similar to the house he rented. The two-bedroom husband's house was more than 50 square meters, but the key was on the fifth floor, and there was no elevator. Cheng's father's health
No, it's very inconvenient to go up and down the stairs.
Hearing Cheng Hao's words, he felt something in his heart and said, "No, why don't we go home for the Chinese New Year and buy a house this time, so that your parents can live in a new house as soon as possible."
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
He smiled and said, "Why, are you still seeing me outside?"
Cheng Hao was silent for a while and then said, "Don't you want to buy a house yourself?"
"I'm not in a hurry. Besides, it won't be too late to buy it after I finish filming my next movie and get paid."
In his memory, housing prices didn't start to take off until 2003 or 2004. Prices have been relatively stable in the past two years.
"Then, I'll lend it to you." Cheng Hao said hesitantly.
Although Cheng's father had an organ transplant and was gradually recovering, he had not yet completely passed the rejection period. Moreover, Cheng's father had been ill for so many years, and she was also afraid of what might happen...so she could allow her parents to move in as soon as possible.
A new house is also a good thing.
Moreover, the relationship between the two is no longer what it used to be, so it seems natural to accept help from her boyfriend.
Of course He Xin was very happy and immediately said: "Then call your parents quickly and let them see if there is any suitable property. It is best to buy an existing house."
"Um!"
Cheng Hao responded softly and asked again: "How long will you stay in the capital this time?"
He Xin said solemnly: "I'm just going to meet with Director Gao. I may have to try out the show, which will only last for two or three days at most. After you wrap up the filming, my affairs will probably be almost done. By then we will
Just meet in Qingdao?"
"okay!"
Speaking of Li Mengnan's confusing phone call last time, it really brought a surprise to He Xin. It turned out that the drama in which he was going to play a supporting role as a policeman was actually "Conquer", and the director was Uncle Gao Qun.
The role of the leading male gang boss that their crew is missing is none other than the famous Liu Huaqiang, Brother Qiang!
He was very excited at the time. In his memory, the TV series had been replayed the most on TV, from "Journey to the West" when he was a child, to the old version of "Wulong Mountain Bandit Suppression", to later "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", "
"Conquest", "Parental Love", etc.
He didn't know how many times he watched "Conquest" except from the beginning to the end when he first watched it, and intermittently in between. Speaking of which, Brother Mengnan played a policeman named Lei Dan in it, and his presence was really low.
When he first said he would play a supporting role as a police officer, He Xin didn't expect it to be the drama "Conquest".
Later, Li Mengnan called for the second time and said that the director was very satisfied with it, but he didn't dare to invite him, the new Golden Horse Award winner. In Mengnan's hesitant words, he could tell that it turned out that the crew's budget was not high.
I'm afraid that the price he charges is too high and I can't afford it.
He Xin didn't take it seriously at first, so he casually asked who the director was. Li Mengnan said it was the director of "Thirteen Murder Cases", his name was Uncle Gao Qun.
At that time, he didn't think it was "Conquer", because Brother Qiang's light in "Conquer" was so dazzling that it was easy for people to ignore who the director was. However, he still knew the name Uncle Gao Qun, also because of "The Wind"
The scene of the rope grinding in the Zhongzhou News left a deep impression on him. The person who could design such a punishment was definitely a talented person. This made him remember that the director of this movie was Uncle Gao Qun.
He also knew about the documentary TV series "Thirteen Murder Cases". This type of documentary TV series had become popular in the past two years. This TV series directed by Uncle Gao Qun had been broadcast on Beijing TV the year before last, with high ratings and social status.
It caused quite a stir.
When Li Mengnan joked that if he wasn't old-fashioned, he wouldn't be able to play the role of Liu Huaqiang, he was stunned and quickly asked the name of the TV series, and it turned out to be "Conquest".
Isn't "Conquer" Sun Honglei's patent? Speaking of Yan Wang's guest appearance as a drunkard with no name in "Endless" and later becoming a first-line star, it is inseparable from two dramas. The first one is "Conquer",
It allowed him to go from a small actor to a second-tier star well-known to the public; and it was later "Insidious" that established his status as a first-tier star.
He quickly inquired about the play in detail.
It turned out that Uncle Gao Qun had indeed fallen in love with Sun Honglei at the beginning, but when he contacted him, Sun Honglei had already accepted Yan Jiangang's "The Dust Has Settled". This is the work of the famous writer Alai, and director Yan Jiangang was a teacher in the directing department of China National Theater.
He has directed such CCTV dramas as "Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Warring States Period" and "Qin Shihuang".
In contrast, although "Thirteen Murder Cases" directed by Uncle Gao Qun has been recognized by the audience, no one in the industry can take it seriously. When his name is mentioned, everyone will often ask whether it is a film.
The documentary one?
Documentary TV series like "Thirteen Cases of Murder" can only rank third in the current film and television industry, and their status is roughly the same as that of later online dramas. The highest level is of course movies, followed by TV series with big actors.
As for TV series starring young actors, the lowest level is documentary TV series like "Thirteen Murder Cases" starring non-professional actors.
Therefore, for the same male lead, if two dramas are presented to Sun Honglei, he will of course choose to be directed by a great director, adapted from the work of a famous writer, and also joined by Liu Wei, Song Jia, and the currently popular Fan Bingbing.
The dust has settled".
It is also interesting to say that Uncle Gao Qun was worried that his price was too high and he did not dare to hire him. Director Gao was very angry at the time. After failing to hire Sun Honglei, he planned to hire Hong Kong's Wu Zhenyu and Anthony Wong to join. As a result, when he contacted him, he was quoted by Hong Kong stars.
All of them were over one million, which suddenly reduced the budget of the entire drama to just over three million to less than four million. Director Gao was defeated and left a psychological shadow from then on.
He Xin knew that "Conquest" still starred Sun Honglei in the original time and space, but he didn't know what happened in the middle. Although he is now the Golden Horse Best Actor, he knows very well that what he lacks most now is actually the audience.
popularity and popularity.
"Jade Goddess of Mercy" will definitely be popular in the future, but it is Sun Li who is popular. Although he can gain some popularity, it is far from enough. "Conquest" is undoubtedly the best choice, and what is even more rare is his love for Brother Qiang.
I particularly like the character.
Director Gao deservedly started his career by making documentary films. The bad guys are bad guys. There is no need to deliberately paint the bad guys with makeup and make them look pretentious like in the drama "Hai Yan".
However, there is one thing that He Xin can't figure out. That is, since Director Gao watched the video of "Escape with Wings" sent by Li Mengnan, why did he not fall in love with Zhao Yanguo who played the role of Brother Hao, but instead fell in love with him?
Li Mengnan told him with a smile that Director Gao had been in society before and was quite familiar with the gangsters in society. Brother Hao played by Zhao Yanguo was too exaggerated and arrogant. In Director Gao's words, this kind of person would get stabbed.
Good thing. On the contrary, he played Ayou, who was gloomy yet ruthless. Although his role was not many and he was out of place, he fit the character perfectly.
Since this was the case, he had to win this role, and the salary was easy to talk about, so he quickly contacted Sister Hong.
As a result, when Chang Jihong heard the name Uncle Gao Qun, his first reaction was that he was filming a documentary? And after reading the script, he immediately expressed his objections, saying that this drama is not like a TV series, and a documentary is not like a documentary.
It's not a good show if it's neither good nor bad. She couldn't understand why He Xin didn't film "What Can I Do to Save You, My Love", which was obviously a hit, but fell in love with this show.
He Xin couldn't explain it clearly, but he insisted that he who loved money the most would not hesitate to lower the salary. Sister Hong had no choice but to contact Uncle Gao Qun. Since the salary was not an issue, everything else was easy to talk about. Uncle Gao Qun was the only one
The request I made was to meet him and try out the show.
Logically speaking, this request is somewhat excessive. Even Zhao Baogang didn't want him to audition for the role, so why did he just shoot documentary Uncle Gao Qun?
But He Xin still agreed wholeheartedly, planning to return to the capital to meet with Director Gao for an interview before the Chinese New Year as soon as the filming of the Yun Province scene was completed.
