Chapter 253 Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo
Fly on the grass, box
Everyone ate and chatted, mainly Cao, Zhang, and Wu chatting, and the others were accompanying and chatting.

"This cooperation is thanks to Mr. Cao and Mr. Zhang. Come, let me toast to both of you."

"President Wu, please be polite."

After drinking for three rounds, Boss Wu raised his glass to toast, Lao Zhang accompanied him, Cao Xuan also toasted, and Gao Yuanyuan and Jia Jingwen took the initiative to refill the wine for the three of them.

This clinking of glasses can be regarded as the finalization of the cooperation of "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji".

Fanxing contributed money and resources from all parties in the mainland, Lao Wu contributed money and distribution channels in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, and Zhang Guoli was responsible for the production and related contacts.

Lao Zhang gets 10% (including his remuneration and part of the production cost), and the remaining 90% is split between Fan Xing and Lao Wu. The total investment exceeds 2500 million+, which is considered a big production in TV dramas.

The remuneration of several leading actors is relatively discounted. For example, Cao Xuan received the cost price of his remuneration, and then discounted it.

In fact, 2500 million yuan is not impossible for Cao Xuan to get blood from "Legend of Hot Blood".
But Fanxing didn't just have this project in hand, there was no need to invest all the funds in it, and the main reason for bringing Lao Wu in was because of his connections in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

This is not just the cooperation of "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji", "Love Through Time and Space", "Journey to the West", "Golden Fan Family" and even "Armor Warrior" in the hands of Fan Xing.

In the future, through Lao Wu's network, they will enter the Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asian markets one after another. The price of a single episode may not be high, but the sum of the scattered episodes is also a few million less. Not to mention, there are always new productions behind Fanxing. .

Taking this line, Cao Xuan valued the drama "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji" more than itself.

In fact, Cao Xuan tried it before, and talked with some TV stations in Taiwan Province through Wu Zhongxian, but the progress was not smooth.

Those TV stations bullied their students, kept their prices low, and were so picky and picky. The money they made was not enough to be angry.

But it’s different through Lao Wu’s channel. Lao Wu’s company will directly sell it as an agent, and give Lao Wu some share according to the profit. With Lao Wu’s contacts there, it is much easier than Fanxing’s own search, and the price is also high.

After the cooperation is reached, the rest of the details can be discussed, and everyone will discuss it.

The director is co-directed by Lai Shuiqing of Lao Wu and Chen Hanzhu of Fan Xing. Lao Zhang is the producer, and Lao Wu and Fan Xing will also send another producer to assist.

In terms of screenwriting, Lao Zhang's people are the main ones, and Fan Xing will also participate. In fact, the script is almost finished now, mainly for revision and improvement.

The shooting locations are mainly bases around the capital, and I am afraid that many scenes will be built, which will also cost a lot of money. At the same time, some exterior scenes will be moved to other places, and the script needs to be read later.

As for the actors...

Lao Zhang, who had been introducing him all the time, didn't say anything, and hid back to see what the two bosses had to say.

The scene was silent for a few seconds, Zhang Wuji needless to say, as long as Cao Xuan wanted to act, he couldn't find anyone else.

In fact, before that, Old Wu and the others chose Su Youpeng, who is now popular, who happens to be Old Wu's person, with enough fame and image.

But after Cao Xuan entered the arena, they immediately abandoned Su Youpeng. After all, no matter how popular he is, he can't compare with Cao Tianwang.

On the contrary, Cao Xuan was a little hesitant. He had seen the original version of Zhang Wuji, and he felt that his image did not fit Zhang Wuji very well.

But he couldn't stand the constant persuasion from inside the company and from Lao Zhang, so he gradually thought about it.

Although Zhang Wuji has an indecisive personality and looks like an honest young man, he is actually a handsome guy. There are many descriptions in the original book, which show that he is a handsome, gentle and likable guy.

If he is not handsome, Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao, Yin Li, Yang Buhui, Jinhua Granny and many other female characters will feel good about him when they see him.

This is definitely the treatment of a handsome guy, and it can be compared with Jin Yong's other handsome men.

Yang Guo, Duan Yu, and Linghu Chong are also most of the female characters who are cute and affectionate.

In contrast, simple male protagonists like Guo Jing and Di Yun can only impress girls by virtue of their character.

Of course, there is still Wei Xiaobao who relies on his skin and face, but special circumstances are not included, and even Lord Wei has a handsome appearance, and his appearance is above the standard.

This tells us that we must have a good skin when walking in the rivers and lakes......

There is no problem with the image, the rest of the difference between Zhang Wuji and Linghu Chong depends on Cao Xuan's own ability.

There are many cases where the same actor plays two Jin Yong martial arts heroes.

For example, brother Qi, Yang Guo+Linghu Chong, was scolded miserably, and another soft-fan boy, Guo Jing+Linghu Chong, who got into chapter 404, was also sprayed bloody. not so good.

On the contrary, it was Huang Rihua, who played Guo Jing and Qiao Feng, all of which were well received, and Li Lianjie, who played Linghu Chong and Zhang Wuji, were also quite distinctive.

Maybe Lao Li can act well, but Lao Cao can't?

Before Cao Xuan always felt that he was the most suitable for Linghu Chong and Yang Guo, but playing Yang Guo, he really didn't think he could beat the peak Baigu.

In Zhang Wuji's words, Su Youpeng was preempted by him. The other versions are really not particularly classic, Cao Xuan is confident to try.

Cao Xuan took the male lead, and the other two roles were divided according to needs.

At first, Cao Xuan wanted to win over Zhao Min for Hu Jing, and then there would be Zeng Li Zhou Zhiruo, Tiantian Shurachang...

However, Lao Wu didn't spend his money for nothing, he started this project to praise Jia, and the first character who was doomed was Jia Jingwen to play Zhao Min.

He even intends to use Cao Xuan to stir up scandals with her to increase the popularity of this drama.

Lao Cao didn't know whether Lao Wu really valued money, or whether he had some latent special psychology, why he always wanted to hype Jia Jingwen as the king's wife.

Zhao Min internally decided that Hu Jing didn't want to play and Zhou Zhiruo wasn't too suitable for her. There were few other roles, so she simply played a cameo role as a girl in yellow shirt and didn't get involved in this project.

Zhou Zhiruo, one of the two heroines, was now free. Cao Xuan hesitated for a long time between Zeng Li and Gao Yuanyuan, and finally decided to push for the higher position.

Once Li played Yin Susu, she happened to have a rival scene with Cao Xuan who played Zhang Cuishan in one person and two roles at the same time.

Playing both his wife and his mother, well, it's quite exciting to think about it...

Of course, Cao Xuan will not treat his wife badly if he treats anyone badly. Fanxing's other projects are always open to Hu Jing and Zeng Li. As long as they are suitable, they can choose whatever they want.

Therefore, the good thing is that the two are not particularly stubborn to play Jin Yong's heroine.

The heroine of the Jin Yong drama is still the Jin Yong drama starring Cao Xuan. Compared with this year's big hit "Swordsman", Zhou Zhiruo's role can be taken out.

Now that Gao Yuanyuan wants to take it, although he won't be handed over, the short contract of two years is out of the question.

In fact, having seen Dameiyuan, who has seen the popularity of "Love Through Time and Space", she is very inclined to sign a long-term contract with Fanxing, but she still wants to procrastinate and strive for a good contract.

Now that the role of Zhou Zhiruo was revealed, Gao Yuanyuan immediately signed the contract without saying a word.

The contract is eight years, one play per year, three of which are heroines.

However, there are already two "Armor Warrior" and "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji", and theoretically there is only one heroine.

But that being said, if Gao Yuanyuan is really popular, Cao Xuan won't let her play tricks, and she is guaranteed to be a starring role.

Gao Yuanyuan was very satisfied with the contract, and Zhang Yadong invited Cao Xuan to have a meal to express his gratitude.

At the dinner table, Cao Xuan looked at the two of them and thought about it. Ruanfannan had already broken up with Qu Ying. It seemed that this supermodel's next relationship would be to poach Da Meiyuan's corner.

To be precise, Zhang Yadong empathized with another!
At that time, if the two were to quarrel, would he be helping his friends, or his artists?

.........

The male lead and the two female leads have been settled, and the rest will be easy. Lao Zhang played Cheng Kun, and Audio-Technica was also pulled over, but Zhang Tielin did not play Yang Xiao.

This guy is so disgusting, if he hadn't taken Lao Zhang's face into consideration, Cao Xuan would have kicked him out.

Therefore, Yang Zuoshi still found Jiao Enjun to act according to his wish. Lao Jiao is a friend of Cao Xuan and also from Taiwan Province, which is in line with what Lao Wu thought.

With the joint efforts of the two major benefactors, this role was decided directly. As for Zhang Tielin, he got the role of a Luzhangke.

Xiao Zhao is also an actor from Taiwan Province, Lin Yichen who just debuted, Cao Xuan mentioned it, and Lao Wu directly finalized it.

For Taiwanese actors like this, the companies behind them are all connected. Lao Wu used resources to support them in this film, and he will return to other companies' plays next time.

So Lao Wu doesn't care which company it is, as long as it is an artist from Taiwan Province, he will not lose money.

Yin Li is played by Yang Xue from Fanxing Company. Cao Xuan hardly chooses this kind of pure and ruthless sick character.

Yan Kuan played Song Qingshu, a male supporting actor who is neither big nor small, which is of great help.

The role of Yang Buhui was given to Dong Xuan. Although it is not as good as Mu Nianci and Mu Wanqing, it is better than nothing. Anyway, it is a good match for Jin Yong's drama, so it is not a loss.

If Zhang Zijian has a follow-up schedule, he will play Ku Toutuo, and if there is not enough schedule, he will play the Mingjiao leader or Chang Yuchun. Anyway, Cao Xuan will fill in all the stars.

From this point of view, Old Wu is somewhat at a disadvantage, and Fan Xing has taken advantage of it.

But Cao Xuan has always been very particular about his partners. If he suffers a loss here, he will make up for it.

"Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" can't move anymore, but "Dragon Ba Bu" still has a Duan Yu.

And the artists under Lao Wu Company happened to have a little Asian whirlwind Lin Zhiying.

Cao Xuan played a role in the middle, Lao Wu won a Jin Yong male lead, and Zhang Dazi had an "Asian superstar" to hype.

The most important thing is that both of them owed favors to Cao Xuan, Lao Wu made up for the loss of "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji", and Fan Xing on the bearded side could continue to fill in "Dragon Ba Bu".

They both win, and Cao Xuan wins...

After the banquet, everyone chatted happily. Soon after, Fan Xing and Lao Wu's Changhong Film and Television Group announced the shooting of "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji".

The topic of Cao Xuan playing Zhang Wuji after Linghu Chong immediately hit the headlines.

And the reunion with Jia Jingwen, sister-in-law of the heavenly king of Taiwan, also excited countless people who eat melons.

As for Zhou Zhiruo's actor, Gao Yuanyuan, because her reputation is not too strong, she hasn't announced it for the time being. Instead, she used this role to hype up and contacted various popular actresses.

One time it was Young Master Zhou, another time it was Xiao Tao Hong, and some said it belonged to Yuan Li and Jiang Qinqin.

The actresses from Hong Kong and Taiwan did not let go, not to mention the new generation, even Zhou Huimin and Li Jiaxin were involved...

Sohu.com also conducted a special poll, and the result was Hu Jing who got the most votes.

It's not that everyone wants Hu Jing to play, the main thing is that everyone wants to see how Cao Daguan faces two sisters-in-law at the same time.

Isn't that the melon truck overturned - there are melons everywhere!
