Popular entertainment circle, you call it a little hobby

Wang Xuan found Shen Zhe and Chen Kai and asked them to recommend actors who knew kung fu in the industry and wanted to have real kung fu.

As a result, Shen Zhe recommended three Shaolin Temple traitors: Li Dawei, Jiang Long and Wang Hu. In Shen Zhe's words, among the martial arts stars, these three have the cleanest and neatest movements and are very, very enjoyable to watch.

Wang Xuan shook his head: "These three are not good. There is something wrong with their character."

"Is there something wrong with your character?" Shen Zhe and Chen Kai were both stunned for a moment.

Wang Xuan told Shen Zhe and Chen Kai what Li Dawei, Jiang Long and Wang Hu had done.

".I'm going? Is there such a thing?"

"If you hadn't said it, I really wouldn't have known that Li Dawei and the others were such people. The Shaolin Temple trained them, and they got out. They were always pretending to be Shaolin lay disciples in the circle, and they actually even gave back to the Shaolin Temple. They refused."

No wonder Shen Zhe and Chen Kai were surprised. With Jiang Long, Li Dawei and Wang Hu's status in martial arts action movies, it is really easy for them to give back to Shaolin Temple. Even if one person spends one million to support the development of Shaolin Temple, it is just a matter of fingertips. In the end, they are not even willing to do this.

Crows still know how to feed back. These three people are really worse than crows.

"Really? I won't want this kind of white-eyed wolf." Wang Xuan said. Not only would he not ask for it, but if he met him, Wang Xuan would not hesitate to step on him.

"I do have a candidate, but this person has been involved in some troubles before and has been out of action for nearly ten years." Chen Kai said.

"Isn't it Cao Shaoqin that Old Chen is talking about?" Shen Zhe asked.

"Yes, it's Cao Shaoqin." Chen Kai nodded. Before Wang Xuan could ask, Chen Kai told Cao Shaoqin one by one.

According to Chen Kai, Cao Shaoqin became famous at a young age and became a famous star player since he was a child.

At the age of 18, he starred in "Turn Hands to Cloud" and "The Myth of Jianghu", which became popular all over the country, and he was in the limelight in the martial arts film and television circles for a while. Unexpectedly, at the age of 20, Cao Shaoqin suddenly had an accident during a filming and fell from a high altitude.

The injury was serious, and Cao Shaoqin had to go abroad for treatment, otherwise he would not be able to film any movies later. But what he didn't expect was that when he asked his father for money for medical treatment, Cao's father said he had no money.

Cao Shaoqin was stunned at the time. He did not hire an agent. His father was his agent and was in charge of all Cao Shaoqin's wealth. With a salary of 1000 million, Cao Shaoqin could only keep 50 for daily expenses, and the rest was kept by his father.

Since he was a child, he has filmed many movies and TV series, and with commercial performances and endorsements, it is no problem to earn two to three hundred million. As a result, when he asked his father for 1 million, his father actually said he had no money.

How can this be?

His father actually advised Cao Shaoqin not to go abroad, because if the treatment failed, the money would be lost. Isn't that an injustice?

Cao Shaoqin was shocked again. He fell from a high altitude. If he didn't go abroad for treatment, he would probably be disabled for life. His father actually advised him not to receive treatment? Is it because you are afraid of spending money?

Is this human talk?

Is this something a father can say?

He didn't spend his family's money, he earned it himself.

This was the first time Cao Shaoqin saw his father's ugly true face.

Cao Shaoqin, who was lying in the hospital bed at the time, was so desperate that he could only borrow money from friends, and finally managed to get enough money for treatment. The treatment was very successful, but what made him even more unbelievable was that when he came back from abroad for recuperation a few months later, everything changed. When he returned home, he found that the owner of the house had changed. It turned out that his father actually sold the mansion he bought while he was recuperating abroad.

He came to another mansion he bought, and found that the owner of that mansion had also changed, but this time the new owner was his brother. Cao's father lived with his brother.

Cao's father directly transferred his mansion to his brother Cao Shaoqin. Cao Shaoqin was not allowed to enter the house even if he wanted to. Cao's father also complained to the media that Cao Shaoqin abandoned his adoptive parents and asked him to move out of the mansion and pay an annual alimony of 150 million.

For a time, Cao Shaoqin became the target of public criticism, and people called him an unfilial son. Faced with overwhelming accusations and abuse, Cao Shaoqin had no choice but to stand up and clarify that the mansion where his father and his brother lived originally belonged to him, and it was his father who transferred the mansion to his brother's name.

In addition, my father also sold his other mansion. And transferred all his deposits. He paid for his treatment abroad by borrowing money from friends in his circle.

Cao Shaoqin originally wanted to clarify the facts and calm public opinion, but he didn't expect to anger his father even more.

Cao's father held a press conference and tearfully accused Cao Shaoqin of being unfilial. He also slandered Cao Shaoqin's chaotic private life and even spread rumors that he took contraband. In order to support his statement, Cao's father also sent photos of Cao Shaoqin's emaciated face without makeup to many newspapers and media to prove that what he said was true.

As soon as this incident came out, public opinion was in an uproar, and Cao Shaoqin's idol image collapsed. Advertising endorsements have been removed from the shelves, no one is looking for him to film, and he will also face a series of liquidated damages.

Even though Cao Shaoqin later held a press conference and showed the media all negative test reports to prove his innocence, the company still hid it.

Cao Shaoqin once publicly stated that from now on, the relationship between father and son is over, and the money is enough for Cao's father to live a good life. But what Cao Shaoqin didn't expect was that Father Cao's more exciting performances were yet to come.

Three years later, Cao Shaoqin finally managed to escape from the company's hiding place. He had just received a major production contract. When he was about to sign the contract, Cao's father, who had squandered all his savings, asked him for alimony again. Cao Shaoqin avoided seeing him.

Then Cao's father started to perform again, crying in front of the media, accusing Cao Shaoqin of being unfilial and unwilling to fulfill his obligations as a son.

Who are the media? Those are people who watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal. They are people who take advantage of the popularity. Most media don't care whether something is true or not, as long as it's popular.

Fueled by the media, the incident made headlines. Cao Shaoqin had no choice but to agree to give Cao's father a house and monthly alimony, hoping that they would stop causing trouble.

But this incident brought Cao Shaoqin's career that he had finally built into a trough again. The big production no longer wanted him. After that, he couldn't get any more roles. Now there is almost no trace of this person in the circle.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's just a perfect copy of Angela Chang." Wang Xuan sighed in his heart. Angela Chang was almost ruined by her mother, but she became popular again thanks to "A Diao". Cao Shaoqin, on the other hand, was destroyed by Cao's father.

But what Wang Xuan is more concerned about is whether Cao Shaoqin is qualified for the role of Nalan Yuanshu.

So Wang Xuan directly looked for Cao Shaoqin's previous masterpieces and watched them again. Not to mention, his martial arts skills are quite solid, his movements are clean and neat, and it is highly entertaining to watch. It just feels a bit mixed.

"How to contact this Cao Shaoqin?" Wang Xuan asked.

"No? Brother Xuan, you don't plan to use Cao Shaoqin, do you?" Chen Kai said.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Wang Xuan asked.

"Goodbye, right? In fact, Cao Shaoqin also filmed two martial arts movies later, but they were rejected. The audience didn't buy it. The incident with Cao's father had a great impact on him." Chen Kai said. "It doesn't matter. If the truth is that Cao Shaoqin was tricked by Cao's father, and Cao Shaoqin is a good character, as long as he is qualified for the role, it doesn't matter if I give him a chance. As for the question of whether the audience will buy it or not, I don't need to worry about this for the movies I make, right? ?" Wang Xuan said.

Chen Kai thought the same thing.

Others don't look for Cao Shaoqin to film movies because Cao Shaoqin no longer has box office appeal. Letting him participate may even lead to resistance from some viewers. But does Wang Xuan need to worry about this?

In the film and television dramas produced by Wang Xuan, the appeal has always been Wang Xuan himself, right?

"Cao Shaoqin must have never done those things, because from the beginning to the end, there has been no official action. All the films and TV series that Cao Shaoqin has participated in can still be watched now," Shen Zhe said.

"That's enough. Please help me notify Cao Shaoqin to come over and audition." Wang Xuan said.

"This is a bit difficult. Mr. Wang doesn't know something. Cao Shaoqin's contract with the company has expired, and he has not shown up for a long time." Shen Zhe said.

"That's better." Wang Xuanxin said. If Cao Shaoqin is qualified for the role of Nalan Yuanshu, Wang Xuan will sign Cao Shaoqin to Tianhai. Tianhai is still in short supply of such actors.

But Chen Kai took over the matter.

He mobilized his connections and finally found Cao Shaoqin two days later. The latter was doing acupuncture in a small place.

The martial arts superstar who became popular ten years ago is now reduced to a small local commercial show, which is also disappointing. This kind of acupuncture, if you can earn several thousand yuan at a time, it would be good.

Chen Kai went to find Cao Shaoqin personally.

When Cao Shaoqin learned that Wang Xuan actually invited him to audition, he was so shocked that he almost suspected that he was hallucinating.

After all, what kind of person is Wang Xuan?

The boss among bosses! In today's entertainment industry, who can compare with Wang Xuan? Not even a superstar. That's a character on a completely different level.

Wang Xuan is already invincible in the Chinese music scene. In the piano world, Wang Xuan is one of the top ten pianists in the world. He conquered the piano world with only one song "Dream Wedding", one "Canon" and one "Croatian Rhapsody". In the film and television industry, Wang Xuan recently participated in "A Better Tomorrow", which won the highest box office in the Chinese film industry. The film and television dramas directed and produced by Wang Xuan himself were popular and made every actor famous.

In today's entertainment industry, who doesn't want to participate in Wang Xuan's film and television dramas?

As for him, he had such a bad reputation that there was no such person in the entertainment industry, and he was reduced to "street busking" to make a living. In the end, Wang Xuan actually invited him to audition. How could Cao Shaoqin dare to believe this?

If someone else came to him and said that Wang Xuan invited him to audition, he would definitely feel like a liar. But now it was Chen Kai who came to the door. Chen Kai finding him was a very dreamy thing in itself. Even when he was at his peak, when he met Chen Kai now, he had to be respectful.

The movie "Farewell My Concubine" completely made Chen Kai a god. Chen Kai now ranks among the top five directors. Besides Wang Xuan, who else could make Chen Kai come and invite him personally?

"Did Teacher Wang Xuan really ask me to film a movie?" Cao Shaoqin confirmed.

"It's just filming, it's up to you whether you can be selected." Chen Kai said, and after thinking about it, he added, "Cao Shaoqin, you'd better cherish this opportunity. I can tell you that in your current situation, besides us Mr. Wang, no one will use you, and no one dares to use you, not even me. Mr. Wang is your only chance to turn around."

"I understand, thank you, Teacher Chen Kai." Cao Shaoqin said.

There was no need for Chen Kai to remind Cao Shaoqin of his situation. In the past few years, how many people have come to ask for help, and how many cold looks he has received.

However, no one is willing to use him, even if he has no lines, no one is willing to give him a role.

The warmth and coldness of human feelings are vividly reflected in him.

Now Wang Xuan actually invited him to audition. How could he not cherish such an opportunity? After experiencing explosive success and earning tens of millions a year, who would be willing to perform on the streets every day if possible?

Cao Shaoqin went home to tidy up and returned to Tianhai with Chen Kai. Then he went directly to Wang Xuan's office.

"Mr. Wang, I brought Cao Shaoqin back to you." Chen Kai said.

When no one is around, he will call Wang Xuanxuan brother. This is the treatment only Li Tao and Zhu Xu have. And because he had been kind to Wang Xuan in the past, he could also call him that. But in front of others, whether he, Li Tao, or Zhu Xu, they all have to call Wang Xuan "Mr. Wang."

Cao Shaoqin quickly greeted Wang Xuan respectfully.

"Cao Shaoqin, right? You haven't lost your kungfu in the past few years, right?" Wang Xuan asked.

"No. I practice every day. This is the skill I rely on to survive. I don't dare to relax." Cao Shaoqin said.

"That's fine. The role you are auditioning for this time requires very high kung fu skills." Wang Xuan said, "Oh, by the way, what kung fu skills do you know?"

"My master is Wing Chun, but I know a lot of kung fu, such as Tongbei Quan, Mantis Fist, and Drunken Fist. I also know how to use swords, spears, swords, and halberds." Cao Shaoqin said, knowing that now is not the time to be modest.

"Is there a four-door stick ceremony?" Wang Xuan asked.

"I have some experience, but I can't say I'm proficient. But if it's just a performance, it should be fine." Cao Shaoqin said.

"Very good, you will improvise in a moment and have a fight scene with a four-door stick and a Shaolin stick. This is the content of your audition." Wang Xuan finished.

"Okay." Cao Shaoqin nodded.

A group of people came to the practice room.

Cao Shaoqin's opponent Li Ze has been waiting in the practice room for a long time.

After ten minutes of brewing, the fight between Cao Shaoqin and Li Ze began.

"You can just let go and hit, it won't be a problem if you really hit him." Wang Xuan said to Cao Shaoqin. He had too much confidence in Li Ze. This person is the first among the new generation of disciples in the Shaolin Temple. He has no rivals in the Shaolin Temple for his whole life. Even Lei Yan was praised highly by Li Ze. He said that if Li Ze let go of his hands and feet, even he would have to concentrate, and the car would overturn if he was not careful.

"Yes, you don't have to hold back. It is said that you are a star player. You have been very good at fighting since you were very young. Show me some real skills. Don't be like those three useless people, Jiang Long, Li Dawei, and Wang Hu. Its name." Li Ze said.

What Wang Xuan didn't know was that during this period, Li Ze had already approached Jiang Long, Li Dawei and Wang Hu, and beat up these three white-eyed wolves.
