Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 539 "Ghost Blowing Lantern" Starts Up, Communication with Tiffany Hsu!
However, for the movie "Dear", Cao Jun is not very interested, he only said that he would consider it, and did not directly reject it.

In fact, Cao Jun's time is relatively limited now, and he hopes that he can cooperate with various types of directors as much as possible.

May 6st, morning.

Produced by Century Film and Television Company, with Cao Jun as the producer, directed by Wen Muye, and co-starred by Liu Ye and Xu Ting-Ning, the big-budget web drama "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Ancient City", held a grand launch conference in Beijing.

As the first film and television work of the "Ghost Blowing Lantern" series, Cao Jun can be said to have attached great importance to the 23-episode web drama "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Exquisite Ancient City". He not only personally searched for male and female protagonists, but also invited Excellent young director Wen Muye is the director of this play.

In order to make this web drama as popular as possible, the production cost of "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Ancient City" has also soared from 3000 million at the beginning to 4500 million.

Although Cao Jun is not short of money, it is quite extravagant to dare to spend 4500 million to make an online drama these days.

Of course, Cao Jun is not spending money indiscriminately, but he really needs so much money to make the online drama "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Ancient City" well, which has been checked and verified by many parties.

Regarding the heroine Shirley Yang's actor Xu Tingning, Cao Jun specially sent someone to invite her to the mainland from Taiwan.

Anyone who has watched "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" knows that the heroine Shirley Yang is a Chinese American, a Chinese-American mixed race, with outstanding looks, a tall nose, and a tall figure...

Originally, Cao Jun wanted to invite Asian-American actress Maggie Q to play the role of Shirley Yang, but because of issues such as schedule and salary, he had to find someone else.

For the casting of Shirley Yang, Cao Jun has always had a principle that the actress must be of mixed race.

It's not that Cao Jun worships foreigners, but that he respects the script and the original work, and doesn't want to find a fake foreigner to play Shirley Yang, a mixed-race beauty.

Therefore, Cao Jun chose Xu Ting Ning, who is fair, beautiful, and hot, to play Shirley Yang among the mixed-race actresses from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Tiffany Hsu was born in Taiwan Province, her father is Italian-American, and her mother is from Taiwan Province. Because her father left her mother before she was born, Tiffany Hsu was raised by her mother, grandfather, grandmother, and other family members on her side. grow up.

Tiffany Hsu not only has a deep relationship with her grandpa and grandma, but also because her grandpa and grandma have five daughters, she grew up in a country of daughters since she was a child. The aunts always bought her the best imported goods and toys, so even though she was born as a single parent family, but still has a fuller family relationship than ordinary people.

Throughout elementary school, Tiffany Hsu never thought she was beautiful. At that time, there were not many mixed-race children and few foreigners.

Because of her different looks, she is often bullied by children, and even herself thinks she looks strange.

At that time, because her hair was red, she often went home crying and told her mother that she wanted to dye her hair black. The first time she realized that she might be beautiful was when she was pursued by several seniors in junior high school.

Although she didn't know who the other party was at that time, she gradually built up a little confidence.

And because she has been exposed to performing arts such as stage plays, movies, and Peking Opera since she was a child, Xu Ting Ning studied drama from high school to university. Even though the things she wanted to do kept changing, being an actor was still her only constant dream.

However, because of the lack of resources and the fact that she is of mixed race, Hsu Ting Ning did not have much filming in the film and television industry in Taiwan Province. Later, she debuted as a model before entering the film and television industry and becoming a film and television actress.

It is worth mentioning that Xu Tingning has a boyfriend named Ruan Jingtian, who have been together for 2007 years since 8.

However, Cao Jun is still very magnanimous. He didn't stop Tiffany Hsu from playing the important role of Shirley Yang just because Tiffany Hsu has a boyfriend. He still generously invited Tiffany Hsu to participate in the big-budget web drama "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Ancient City". .

As for Tiffany Hsu's remuneration, Cao Jun also offered 2.5 TWD per episode, which is NT$10 per episode.

For mainland actresses, Xu Ting Ning's salary is nothing at all, especially after the capital entered the film and television industry in the past few years, the salary of many [-]th-line actresses has increased to tens of thousands per episode.

And Sun Li, who became popular with the drama "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem", her remuneration for an episode of the TV series has soared to 50 per episode, which is more than 200 million Taiwan dollars per episode when converted into Taiwan dollars.

However, Tiffany Hsu is very satisfied with the remuneration offered by Cao Jun. On the one hand, it is because she is very interested in the drama "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Ancient City", and on the other hand, it is also because the actors in Taiwan Province have very low salaries.

Of course, it's not that the actors in Taiwan province are paid low, the actors in Xiangjiang are also paid very low.

For example, when Chen Xiaodong played "The King of Lanling" in the mainland, he paid at least 10 yuan (about NT$45) per episode, but he earlier filmed "Love Emergency Room" for Taiwan's China TV, and his salary was 12 yuan per episode. New Taiwan dollars (about 3 yuan), more than tripled.

Therefore, in many TV dramas produced in the Mainland, actors from Xiangjiang TVB are often seen.

From Tang Zhenzong in the earliest TV series "Foreign Girl", to Liu Songren, Chen Haomin later, and now to Charmaine Sheh, Myolie Wu, Zheng Jiaying and so on.

Tiffany Hsu is also very grateful to Cao Jun. On the one hand, it is because of the high salary he offered, and on the other hand, it is also because she knows the influence of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern" in the mainland.

Before this, Tiffany Hsu couldn't believe that she would have such good luck to be able to act as the heroine in a series produced in the mainland, and to cooperate with Golden Horse actor Liu Ye. It was like a dream. This is what many actresses dream of.

At the beginning, Xu Tingning was still worried that after coming to the mainland from Taiwan, there would be some unspoken rules and the like, but after getting in touch with Cao Jun and the others, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After the press conference, all the main staff of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Exquisite Ancient City" created and had dinner at the hotel.

At the wine table, Tiffany Hsu, like other actors, took the initiative to toast Cao Jun, thanking him for his support.

Cao Jun replied with a smile: "Performing tricks well with your heart is the greatest reward for me."

Looking at the upright Cao Jun, Tiffany Hsu felt warm in her heart, and said gratefully: "Thank you Director Cao, I will definitely put my heart into filming!"

Cao Jun smiled gratifiedly, and said: "There are 8 "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in total, and Jingjue Ancient City is just one of them. If the response from the audience is good, we will use your original cast..."

Hearing Cao Jun's words, Xu Tingning was also flattered, and kept nodding, with a very pious attitude.

In the process of communicating with Tiffany Xu, Cao Jun smelled the fragrance on her body, and naturally became very interested in Tiffany Xu.

Although Cao Jun has always been serious in front of Tiffany Xu, his gaze has already sized her up from top to bottom.

In Cao Jun's opinion, Xu Ting Ning looks pure and lustful, and has a very quiet and good family temperament, which is definitely his favorite type.

And when Xu Tingning communicated with Cao Jun, she would involuntarily make eye contact with Cao Jun.

Although Tiffany Hsu has been telling herself in her heart that when chatting with someone, she should stare at the other person's eyes, which is a kind of politeness and respect.

But Tiffany Hsu also had to admit that Cao Jun's aura is too strong, and his eyes are also very deep.

At the moment when she and Cao Jun looked at each other, Xu Tingning would inevitably feel her heart beating faster.
