Chapter 51 A Chinese Ghost Story
Ding Xiu took a taxi to Qinchao Entertainment, and Qin Gang was sitting in the reception area of ​​the lobby smoking a cigarette.

"Old Qin, what's the rush?"

"Good thing." Qin Gang said happily: "Do you still remember the crew I took you to run two days ago?"

"I ran so many crews in the past two days, how the hell do I know which one you are talking about?"

"A Chinese Ghost Story."

Ding Xiu remembered that he ran past this crew. After all, A Chinese Ghost Story is still very famous, especially the versions of Zhang Guorong and Liang Chaowei.

Wang Zhuxian's coldness, Li Zhi's charming and sexy, all kinds of beautiful female ghosts seduce the protagonist, but if Yan Chixia makes a move later, the old Montenegro demon will be murdered by Ning Caichen and the others.

However, the crew that Ding Xiu and Qin Gang run is the TV drama version of A Chinese Story, which has been changed a lot, basically it has nothing to do with the movie version of A Chinese Ghost Story.

This is a large production team, with investors from Mainland China, Hong Kong Island, Wanwan, and Singapore. The tentative protagonist is also a popular niche from the mainland, Taiwan and Taiwan.

The male number one is Chen Xiaodong from Hong Kong Island. He has won the Golden Melody Award and the Golden Melody Award for Best Newcomer.

The female number one is Xu Xiyuan from Wanxing, who debuted in a girl group and is very popular.

The male number two is Wu Jing, a popular kung fu boy in the Mainland, and the female number two is Xuan Xuan, who debuted on Hong Kong Island for many years.

These people in front of them are either the relationship households that were pre-determined early on or the excellent foils selected by the producer from the market.

Ding Xiu thought he couldn't compare to them, so the male number three was the one who auditioned.

After the trial, the casting director asked them to come back and wait for news. It had been several days, and if Qin Gang hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten it.

"They agreed?"

"agreed."

Ding Xiu's expression was weird: "Old Qin, you don't really sleep with the director, do you?"

Qin Gang said with a bitter face: "Executive director, assistant director, casting director, they are not human, my butt still hurts now, I can only sit on the sofa, not on the bench."

"These bastards!" Ding Xiu scolded, and then said: "Old Qin, don't worry, I won't let your efforts be in vain."

"By the way, are they fighting on wheels or together?"

You are not a good person...Qin Gang said seriously: "Brother Xiu, do you know Cheng Xiaodong?"

"Male number one? I don't know."

He has never been to Hong Kong Island in two lifetimes, so how could he know each other.

"It's Cheng Xiaodong, not Chen Xiaodong. I'm talking about the martial arts instructor of A Chinese Ghost Story."

Ding Xiu shook his head: "It's the first time I've heard that it's male or female?"

Qin Gang was puzzled, and the casting director told him that the competition for the male number three was fierce, and there were many auditions. It was thanks to the recommendation of the martial arts instructor Cheng Xiaodong that he was able to win.

It is difficult for normal martial arts directors to intervene in casting, but Cheng Xiaodong is different, he is an expert.

The movie Swordsman: The Undefeated East Wind, New Dragon Inn, The Three Heroes of the East, Adventure King, Romance, and The Art of Life and Death, all of these movies have been directed by him in martial arts.

The Golden Statue Award at home, the Golden Horse Award for Best Action Director trophy can hardly be put down.

Not only is he a martial arts instructor, he is also a director himself. He directed Leslie Cheung and Wang Zhuxian's version of A Chinese Ghost Story, and he almost won the Best Director of the Academy Awards that year.

This time, the producer of A Chinese Ghost Story just wanted to gain popularity by inviting him. Facing such a big star, they just recommended a third male lead who didn't have many roles. Of course, the crew had to give this face.

"Really don't know?"

Ding Xiudao: "Except for knowing a martial arts instructor named Yuan Bing when I was filming Swordsman, I have never met a second martial arts instructor in my life. Where can I meet him?"

He just made two films, one of "Swordsman" and "The Lost Martial Arts".

There is no chance to know other martial arts instructors at all.

"Forget it, if you don't know him, you don't recognize him, um, Yuan Bing?" Qin Gang was stunned for a long time before he said, "No wonder."

Yuan Bing is one of the Seven Little Fortunes, but he didn't follow senior brother Cheng Long, Huang Jinbao and the others, instead he threw himself into Cheng Xiaodong's family early on.

God of Gamblers, Swordsman: Undefeated in the East, Dragon Inn and other movies, he has participated in the martial arts instructor.

Cheng Xiaodong's ability to recommend Ding Xiu probably has something to do with Yuan Bing.

Ding Xiu was puzzled: "Is there any problem?"

Qin Gang smiled wryly: "Brother Xiu, you should have told me earlier that you have this kind of relationship. Cheng Xiaodong's fingernails can leak a little resource, and you can shoot for a year."

Ding Xiu frowned, with a very impatient expression. From the beginning when Qin Gang spoke in a cloud, and now he still hides it, his anger is already very high.

"Believe it or not, no matter how much you babble, I really make you unable to sit on the hard bench."

As soon as the chrysanthemum tightened, Qin Gang quickly said: "Cheng Xiaodong is Yuan Bing's boss, maybe Yuan Bing called you and pushed you."

"It's something that can be explained clearly in one sentence, why have you been talking about it for so long?"

"Didn't I just think of it?" Ding Xiu gave him a meaningful glance, and Qin Gang shrank his head back, and took out a document: "I brought back the contract, you sign it, I stamp it, and I will return it to you." Waiting."

Ding Xiu turned to the back and took a look at the salary. He was very satisfied with one hundred thousand yuan.

Although this character is the third male lead, the overall cast ranks seventh, and there are six other people in front of him who have more roles than him.

It's a lot to get [-] yuan.

If it was Zhang Jizhong's crew, it would be another [-] to [-].

The contract was made in triplicate, Ding Xiu signed it, Qin Gang stamped it, and sent it to the hotel where the crew was located without stopping.

As soon as Qin Gang left, Ding Xiu called Yuan Bing on the back. He didn't get through the first time, but someone answered the second time.

"I'm working, so talk quickly and fart quickly."

"Brother Yuan, you are really telling me that you recommended me to join the group without even saying a word, and quietly dealt with the matter. When the film salary comes down, I will treat you to a drink another day."

"What's the matter?" On the other side of the phone, Yuan Bing was confused.

A kind person, Ding Xiu sighed, and still didn't admit it at this time: "Still pretending, A Chinese Ghost Story, the casting director said that Cheng Xiaodong recommended me, and no one knows me, except you."

Yuan Bing laughed: "I didn't participate in a Chinese Ghost Story project, so I didn't know you were going to audition. I'm out of town."

"However, I talked to the boss about you before. Maybe I heard too much bragging. I want to meet you in person. If you want to buy a drink, please invite him."

"There are a lot of acquaintances in this crew, and the martial arts are all from our company. My senior brother Yuan Hua is also here. If there is something to do, report my name. That's it, hang up, I'm busy."

Ding Xiu was stunned. After a long time, it wasn't the Yuan Bing's help. Qin Gang's guess was wrong.

But this matter has nothing to do with Yuan Bing. If he hadn't mentioned himself to Cheng Xiaodong, he might not be the number three male this time.

Chinese Girl is a joint venture film with a large lineup and a large investment. On the day of the audition, he waited in line for more than three hours before getting in.

Many of the people in front of him are still well-known actors, who want to have good looks, good acting skills, and martial arts.

It can be seen how fierce the competition is.
