Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 86 Trying comedy for the first time, broadening the way of acting!

Zeng Li originally had the idea of ​​playing the supporting actress Jingjing after reading the script of "Crazy Stone", but now that Ning Hao took the initiative to speak, she naturally didn't want to miss it easily.

In addition, Cao Jun is one of the producers of the movie "Crazy Stone", and Zeng Li also tried his best to share his worries.

Zeng Li still wanted to act like Xu Zheng in the movie "Crazy Stone" with zero pay. Of course, Cao Jun would not agree. He couldn't let his girlfriend suffer, and he helped her get a pay of 5 yuan.

For Zeng Li, the salary of 5 is not high, even a little low, but in the crew of "Crazy Stone", it is the second highest salary after the leading actor Guo Tao.

Although Jingjing, the supporting actress, as Dao's girlfriend, doesn't have many roles in "Crazy Stone" and is basically a fan, but Xie Xiaomeng, Hei Pi, Xiaojun and Dao surrounded her and gave birth to many classic lines.

Of course, there is also the song "I Love You Dear Girl". The reason why she is said to be "popular" is because she doesn't have many lines, but the role is equally important.

Cao Jun thought that Ning Hao would reject the offer, but unexpectedly, Ning Hao not only did not object, but also readily agreed.

Seeing Ning Hao, who has always been stingy, suddenly become so generous, Cao Jun was also a little surprised, and joked with a smile: "Brother Hao, when did you become so bold?"

Ning Hao explained: "Xiao Cao, to tell you the truth, we are a rough man's drama, and we need an eye-catching beauty to appear to enhance the enjoyment of our movie."

After getting along for a few days, Cao Jun gradually discovered that Ning Hao is not only a director of chicken thieves, but also a very versatile talent, feeling that he knows everything.

Facing Cao Jun's praise, Ning Hao was also a little proud, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am a director, you might as well call me a miscellaneous."

Before that, Ning Hao worked as a bicycle assembler, stage art designer, advertisement designer and photographer, and also worked in the Taiyuan Repertory Theater for a while.

Ning Hao's "first work" in the entertainment industry was to use a disposable camera to take photos of the CD cover effect for the fifth guitarist of the Tang Dynasty band.

After coming to Beijing, Ning Hao worked as an entertainment reporter for a long time, interviewed singers on Channel V, and later shot MVs (music videos). He is more familiar with people in the music industry than in the film industry.

Many singers including Cao Jun and Piao Shu, Ning Hao got acquainted with them through filming MVs.

However, Ning Hao believes that directing this kind of artistic work does not require a threshold, nor does it require children's skills, as long as an individual can shoot, the difference lies in the level of talent.

Just like Gao Xiaosong, a graduate with a Chinese violin in high school, he wrote such hits as "You at the Same Table" and "The Brother Who Sleeps on My Upper Bunk", and even made two movies.

On May 5th, the 13th day of filming of "Crazy Stone".

Seeing that Zeng Li's role in the film is about to wrap up, Cao Jun is also preparing to leave the film crew and return to the capital to rest for a while.

When Ning Hao learned that Cao Jun was leaving, he disagreed with everything.

"Xiao Cao, you can't leave. There are still many aspects of our movie that need your full support."

Cao Jun said dumbfoundedly: "Brother Hao, I have been with you on the set for many days, and I can't stay any longer."

Ning Hao also knew that Cao Jun was busy with business, and he came to Chongqing this time because he accepted a commercial performance here, so he said, "Xiao Cao, I won't stop you if you want to leave, but you must help me play a role."

Cao Jun knowingly asked, "What role do you want me to play for you?"

Ning Hao didn't talk too much, and said solemnly: "The role of International Bandit Mike is none other than you!"

Cao Jun said angrily and amusedly: "Didn't you say before that the role of Mike was tailor-made for Mr. Andy Lau? Why is it all about me now?"

Ning Hao said solemnly: "At this moment, at that moment, I admit that when I wrote the script, I really designed Mike for Andy Lau."

"But recently, the more I look at you, the more I think you are suitable for the role of Mike. I found that you have the potential to act in comedy..."

In fact, Cao Jun also thinks the role of Mike is very interesting. It feels a bit like Chen Zongzhuzhu in "New Shaolin Five Ancestors".

This huge contrast between front and back can bring people a kind of unexpected laugh.

Although in the movie "Crazy Stone", Mike's role is not as much as that of the protagonist Bao Shihong, but he can be regarded as a supporting role with more roles. In the movie, he bears a lot of laughs.

For a long time, Cao Jun played more serious roles, such as Jiang Ming in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", Yang Guo in "The Legend of Condor Heroes" and so on.

Frankly speaking, during the period when he was on the crew of "Crazy Stone", Cao Jun watched them filming every day, and his heart was itchy for a long time, and he was looking forward to working with them.

As a professional actor, Cao Jun also wants to try to take on comedy roles and expand his acting career. Maybe he can make some comedy movies in the future.

Cao Jun also believes that with his popularity and popularity, if he can join the movie "Crazy Stone", he should be able to help this small production movie and bring more attention and publicity.

However, Cao Jun didn't want to talk nonsense with Ning Hao, and said bluntly: "Brother Hao, it's not impossible to let me play Mike, how much do you plan to pay me?"

In fact, Cao Jun is not short of this little money, what he wants is respect, if Ning Hao gives him a red envelope, then he will definitely not accept it.

Ning Hao didn't have time to think about it, so he said, "Xiao Cao, the price is 8 yuan! I know the salary, I'm sorry for you, but..."

For Cao Jun today, the salary of 8 yuan is really nothing. You must know that after he finished the Spring Festival Gala, the money he earned from a commercial performance was around 8 yuan.

However, compared with Xu Zheng, who has no pay, Cao Jun, as a supporting role, is already considered very high, only a little worse than the leading actor Guo Tao.

Moreover, Cao Jun himself wanted to act in the movie "Crazy Stone", especially the role of Mike, he found it more and more interesting the more he watched it.

Therefore, this time, Cao Jun did not shirk, but chose to accept.

"Crazy Stone" is about a handicraft processing factory on the verge of bankruptcy. When renovating the toilet, it unexpectedly dug out a peerless jadeite worth millions.

The unearthing of the peerless jade not only attracted the "thief" trio led by Brother Dao, but also attracted the international thief Mike.

In order to get closer to the image of the international thief Mike, Cao Jun designed a rather international appearance for himself, chewing gum, wearing earrings, wearing sunglasses, and wearing a leather jacket, which is quite cool.

With Cao Jun dressed like this, it is not too much to say that he is an international star, not to mention controlling international thieves.

However, compared to Huang Bai and others' performance in front of the camera with ease, Ning Hao is always a little worried that Cao Jun, who is acting in a comedy for the first time, will be a little bit reluctant.

"Xiao Cao, come here."

Before the filming started, Ning Hao deliberately called Cao Jun aside.

Cao Jun came over and asked, "What's the matter, Brother Hao?"

"Your first scene will be filmed soon, are you ready?" Ning Hao said.

Cao Jun nodded: "No problem, everything is ready."

Dubiously silent for a few seconds, Ning Hao looked at Cao Jun with a complicated expression, and said in a deep voice, "Release yourself when you are going to shoot, you look so handsome today, don't be burdened by idols!"

Cao Jun grinned and said, "Don't worry about that, Brother Hao, you can't ignore my acting skills just because of my looks. Anyway, I'm also an actor with a professional background, and I have certain professionalism."

ps. Seeing everyone's suggestions about the scale of this book, I personally think that the scale is really not big, and it is already very restrained.

There is another one, the book has already been signed, and it has been recommended by various sources, and it is not bad for follow-up reading. It is waiting to be put on the shelves now, thank you for your support.
