This actor wants to pay more

Chapter 413 Embroidery Spring Knife Released
Hearing Ding Xiu's words, Wu Jing smiled wryly, these words were too familiar, and he was exactly as arrogant as he used to be.

Later, after being severely beaten by the society, I became honest.

Without talking about this topic again, Ding Xiu changed the subject and said to Wu Jing: "I heard that you are planning to shoot me as a special soldier, playing a high school student?"

It was said that Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo stared wide-eyed, Wu Jing is already 35, and he is about to be in his fourth year. Playing a high school student is awesome.

This is not the way old cows eat young grass.

Wu was startled and embarrassed, he didn't know whether it was because of drinking or panic, his face was flushed, he didn't tell anyone about this, and he didn't know which bastard spread the word.

"How did you know?"

Ding Xiu shrugged: "Because the director looked for me first, I didn't agree. After a while, he said he was looking for you."

This play is called I am Special Forces: The Knife Unsheathed. The hero is called He Chenguang this time. He is a youth boxing champion. His father and grandfather are both soldiers.

The director is the same person as the director of the first film.

Because the first film had a good reputation, the director thought of Ding Xiu when he made the second film this time, but Ding Xiu didn't like this script and didn't want to repeat this type of drama.

If the first time was due to the novelty and the good script, then the second time is unnecessary.

The script is a bit complicated, there are too many things stuffed in it, and Ding Xiu doesn't like the character design, the male lead is too invincible, and there are many love scenes.

Of course, the most important thing is age.

Ding Xiu is 31 this year, and he can act as a young man who is 25 or [-] years old, but he really can't act like a high school student.

Originally, I thought it was outrageous for the director to find me, but I didn't expect to find Wu Jing.

Looking at Wu Jing's wrinkled face and crow's feet, the corners of Ding Xiu's mouth twitched uncontrollably: "Did you really go all out this time?"

Heartbroken, Wu Jing said, "Actually, I'm not entirely focused on this movie. I want to direct a military-themed movie. Before that, I want to gain some experience."

"It just so happens that this is a special forces drama. The director promised to let me go to the army to experience it for a month, and I will be taught by professional instructors."

"My idea is to learn more about the army, the training methods of special forces, and experience in shooting and holding guns."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Ding Xiu, Huang Bo, and Wang Baoqiang softened a little. They didn't make so many jokes, and they felt a little natural.

Wu Jing was a director before, and he and Ding Xiu filmed Wolf Fang, and the effect was not bad, but the cost of luck was a bit high, and there were many criticisms.

Now he wants to direct the play again. I am a special soldier, so I take it as an experience package. After filming a film, I should be able to learn a lot of knowledge and prepare for the next director, which is very good.

"Brother Xiu, you are a big family, and your support will be indispensable at that time. The new movie is a military drama, and it will cost a lot of money. You understand that."

Wu Jing stared straight at Ding Xiu and said.

Two films cost the most, sci-fi fairy tale films and military films.

Xianxia dramas can also use special effects, but military films are not so good, and many scenes have to be shot in real life, which is very expensive.

Wu Jing conservatively estimated that his new film production cost is at least 6000 to [-] million. He can afford such a large amount of money, but if he loses money, he will have to hurt his muscles and bones. Find a few more investors to be more stable, and everyone will bear the risk together. .

Ding Xiu lit the cigarette, took a deep breath, and put Wu Jing's Zippo lighter in his pocket: "What time is it?"

If he wants to invest in a short period of time, there is nothing he can do. The money is needed to buy an airplane, and the deposit has been paid.

After getting the answer, Wu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "It's still early, at least three years, and now there is no script, only an outline."

"Fuck!" Ding Xiu scolded: "Then what a fart, talk to me after the script comes out and the shooting plan comes out."

There is not a single hair, so to speak.

Wu Jing smiled: "Isn't this a vaccination in advance, in case you won't be able to afford the money temporarily?"

Several of them knew about Ding Xiu's purchase of the plane, and it could easily cost hundreds of millions.

The money was taken out of the plane, and it is estimated that the savings of these years have been spent. If I really need to ask him to invest temporarily, then maybe he will buy another landscape manor with several hundred million.

Ding Xiu calmly said: "Isn't there a lot of money, tens of millions is not enough."

Wang Baoqiang nodded seriously: "I testify, Brother Xiu is a rich man. We had dinner together two days ago, and when we were about to pay the bill, he answered the phone and ran away."

Huang Bo was surprised: "Damn, I thought I was the only one who met, but I didn't expect you to be wronged too."

Ding Xiu smiled awkwardly: "That's really something."

Bought a plane, bought a Bentley, two big expenses spent a lot of his savings, Gao Yuanyuan is all messed up, and recently she is angry, saying that in the future, I will just give some living expenses every month, and I will save money for him .

No, I have to call to avoid orders when I go out to eat.

Huang Bo nodded his head heavily, and said in a strange way: "I believe, after all, the person who bought a private jet."

Wu Jing was heartbroken: "Brother Xiu, you can really do this kind of thing."

Ding Xiu's face was not flushed and his heart was not beating: "Isn't this a treat to make up for it? You guys didn't eat less today."

Wang Baoqiang looked at the several plates of cabbage, mutton on the table, and a case of beer on the ground, and was embarrassed to speak.

This is what Ding Xiu said to make up for it.

"Don't say anything, Brother Xiu, I wish you a big hit at the box office!"

……

Both Xiu Chun Knife and Ren on Journey were released on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Many friends missed the previous premieres. On this day, Ding Xiu specially reserved the show and came to the cinema with Gao Yuanyuan, Wu Jing, and Huang Bo.

There are many vacant seats, and the seats in the back are full of company employees and executives, some come alone, and some bring their girlfriends.

The first thing people see is that people are on their way.

At the beginning of the screen, the male protagonist, Niu Geng, is a worker in a milk factory. The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the boss can’t afford the wages, so he can only give the IOUs owed to him by others, and let them collect the bills by themselves.

The young Niu Geng took over this important task, and took the IOUs to go thousands of miles away to find the debtor.

At the airport, he took all the pots and pans with him when he was flying for the first time.

And a large bottle of milk.

After learning that the milk was not allowed to be brought on the plane, he drank all of it on the spot. Gao Yuanyuan and the others were dumbfounded and clicked their tongues.

The unlucky toy factory owner Li Chenggong is on the same plane as him, and the two are located next to each other.

On the plane, Niu Geng was not feeling well, so he asked the plane to stop for a while, which stunned Li Chenggong, and he was speechless to this country bumpkin.

The plane couldn't stop, and the airsick burdock drank too much milk, so he felt nauseated. The milk he drank before started to go up. Seeing that he spit it out and swallowed it, he didn't spit it out, and Li Chenggong almost threw it up.

According to Niu Geng's crow's mouth, because of the weather, the plane returned the same way, and the two had to take the train instead.

Li Chenggong went to scalpers to buy a ticket, and he bought a fake ticket, which happened to be the same seat as Niu Geng. At first, he condescendingly said that Niu Geng was a fake ticket, but the conductor came to check and found that he was the fake one...

From the plane to the train, from the train to the bus, from the bus to the van, and the bullock cart, the two were together all the way. As they got closer to home, many ironic stories happened to them.

In the end, Li Chenggong chose the family between his family and Xiaosan, and Niu Geng also got the money he owed.

During the Spring Festival of the second year, the two met again on the plane, and the film ended there.

This is a typical road movie. The hero starts to set a certain goal, to go to a certain destination, and then grows up and changes his mind in the process of going.

The structure of road films is that the process is interesting, and often the result is not very important.

In this drama, Niu Geng didn’t change much. It was Li Chenggong who changed his thinking and psychology, but Li Chenggong’s change seems to have nothing to do with this "travel". This point is a little weak, and this is the flaw.

It can be seen that the investment in the film is not large, and it is all small scenes. Most of the filming locations are in rural areas and mountains, and props are broken vans and bullock carts.

But as far as the level of funny is concerned, it's still pretty funny.

This is the second time for Ding Xiu to watch it. He gave this film an [-], which is definitely above the standard.

This can be heard from the uninterrupted laughter in the movie theater.

After watching people on the embarrassing journey, Ding Xiu and others looked at Xiuchun Dao again.

Because he had seen the finished film early, he didn't have much expectation, but other people watched it with great interest.

In the outside world, a relatively early group of viewers have already watched several popular movies in the Spring Festival.

Evaluations follow.

"Avatar ranks first, does not accept rebuttals, can make science fiction like this, Cameron is awesome, and the second is Xiuchun Dao, can make martial arts like this, Ding Xiu is amazing."

"After watching Avatar, I can't calm down for a long time. When will we be able to make this kind of sci-fi movie in China? Maybe it won't be made in a lifetime."

"This year's New Year's Eve, our domestic films are only played by Ding Xiu's Xiuchun Dao, and they are really good."

"I hope that in the next few years, domestic films will work hard. If the relevant departments have not blocked most foreign films, we don't know what kind of impact our domestic films will have."

"I would like to recommend a funny low-cost movie to everyone. I am so happy that I am on my way."

"Xiu Chun Knife, nothing to say, the number one martial arts movie in China, this is a movie for men, Ding Xiu is awesome."

"I haven't seen such a martial arts fighter for many years. It's still the usual Ding style, which is good-looking."

"Ding Xiu was able to shoot such a high-level work as a director for the first time. To be honest, it exceeded my expectations..."

"I apologize to Ding Xiu. Last year he said he was just playing around and couldn't make good movies. Now that Xiuchun Dao is released, after watching it, I admit that I was wrong."

"Exclusively revealed that Xiuchun Dao Ding Xiu is just a name, and the real director is Lu Yang."

"Lu Yang: Don't talk nonsense, most of the work is done by brother Xiu, and I'm just an assistant."

Lu Yang didn't dare to admit that Xiuchun Dao was all his credit, otherwise Ding Xiu wouldn't have invested in the next drama.

Of course, although he contributes a lot, the big policy is set by Ding Xiu. As long as he is idle, Ding Xiu will also take charge of the overall situation, saying that Ding Xiu is just a name, which is inappropriate and inappropriate.

How the audience sees it is up to the benevolent to see the benevolent and the wise to see wisdom.

Just like Chen Kai's filming of Farewell My Concubine, many people say that his father filmed it, and he was just a helper.

But the specific situation, the people on the crew back then knew best.

Director Chen used to come out to explain a few words after being scolded a lot, but Ding Xiu's character doesn't bother to explain.

……

The box office came out on the first day of the Spring Festival stalls. There was no suspense. Avatar ranked first. Fortunately, Ding Xiu's Xiuchun Knife came in third, but it was useless. The first two and three together were not as high as Avatar.

On the second day and the third day, Avatar's box office was getting higher and higher day by day, and the lineup was also frighteningly high.

Some mediocre films have been squeezed out again, and some of them are almost on the verge of being removed from the shelves.

After a few days, only the embroidered spring knife is still firm.

In order to attract more audiences to the cinema, Ding Xiu took the actors to run around in the first month of the first month to promote, and he didn't stop until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

Not long after I got home, the New Year greetings came.

"Hello godfather."

"The group has grown so big, I'll give you a red envelope."

"Thank you godfather."

"Brother Xiu, I want a red envelope too."

"Mimi, red envelopes are given by adults to children."

"You can treat me like a child too."

"Ahem, I'm not bad at being a daughter right now."

"Xixi, what have you been up to lately? I haven't heard from you for a while."

"I went abroad and made a few films. My mother insisted that I make them. I was speechless. It would be better to be in the mainland."

"Brother Jing, did you come so early this year?"

"I'm going to the army to experience life soon, and I'll come over to say hello to you. Maybe we won't see each other until next year."

The work of an artist is like this. There are fewer gatherings and more separation. A drama takes three to four months, and three movies a year are gone. Artists who are slightly popular spend most of the time on the crew every year. Time to go home.

I'm a special soldier with the blade unsheathed in April, and it will probably be in July and August when it's finished. At that time, if Ding Xiu takes on a play, it won't be that he won't have a chance to see you again this year.

Patting Wu Jing on the shoulder, Ding Xiu sighed, "You really don't want to go to Hong Kong Island anymore?"

"No, there is no place for me over there." Wu Jing smiled wryly and shook his head.

This time I really won't go back.

After ten years in Hong Kong, he was also tired. At the beginning, he was a first-line artist in the mainland. After going there for so many years, he hasn't acted in a few male lead roles.

I really answered the lyrics, I used to be full of pride, but I came back with an empty suitcase.

After the new year, saying goodbye to Ding Xiu, Wu Jing went to the army with a bag.

For the next period of time, Ding Xiu dealt with friends from the entertainment industry who came to pay New Year's greetings every day, because he was idle at home, no matter if he was acquainted or not, he received them all.

On the way, I also took time to look at the company over there in Shanghai, and there was nothing wrong with it, everything was normal.

On the contrary, Qin Lan's studio has signed a few new girls. Under Yang Siwei's package, the first batch of signed girls have already started to make money.

Fifteen, the Spring Festival stalls are halfway through, traffic drops, part-time workers go back to work, and people who go to work are also going to work, and the single-day box office of several popular movies on the box office charts begins to decline.

Half a month later, the box office of Xiuchundao was 2000 million.

In the remaining half a month, at most tens of millions more can be earned. It is very difficult and almost impossible to break through [-] million.

However, this movie has a good reputation and high ratings. Many people said that if it hadn't hit Avatar, it would not be a problem to make [-] million.

The company's Zhou Yiwei also got out of the circle smoothly, and he had to pay more for one sentence, which allowed him to scoop up four scripts. This year's drama will not worry about shooting.

Bao Qiang's people have become popular in Journey, investing several million and earning more than 2000 million. Judging from the current situation, there is no problem breaking through the box office of 3000 million.

From Xiao Yuan in Blind Well, Sha Gen in A World Without Thieves, Xu Sanduo in Soldier Assault, Shun Liu in My Brother Called Shun Liu, and Niu Geng in Embarrassed Way, Wang Baoqiang's comedy image is deeply ingrained.

He was troubled by this.

Bao Qiang, who was determined to be an old artist, rejected dozens of idiot roles, and finally, in many scripts, he took on the role of a lunatic.

That lunatic is called Mr. Tree.
