China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

Chapter 222 Choice [33]

It is said that "Painted Skin" is also called "Ghost Painted Skin" and "Painted Skin Ghost".

It was originally only one of the chapters in the strange novel "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" in the Qing Dynasty.

In the original book, it is actually mainly about an evil ghost who puts on human skin painted with colored pens and dresses up as a lovely beauty, so as to play tricks and devour people's hearts.

It wasn't until a Taoist priest saw through it that he revealed his true nature and was eliminated with a sword.

Therefore, in this version of the script adapted by Ning Film Studio, the sloppy ranger Wang Yong played by Xie Junhao actually represents this Taoist priest.

However, Xie Junhao was able to win the role of Wang Yong this time, and Hairun's help is actually indispensable behind him.

It's just that Hairun may be too optimistic about the "Painted Skin" project.

Therefore, without mentioning Xie Junhao, he even pushed over Sun Li, a young actress who is currently flourishing under his own banner.

Originally, Pang Hong disagreed with Hairun's operation.

After all, this is a project of Ning Film Studio, not its Haiyun project.

Unexpectedly, Hairun came up with another plan.

That is to divide the role of Taoist priest into two.

Some of the functions are performed by Wang Yong, a sloppy ranger, while the other part is replaced by the female pharmacist Xia Bing.

This can be regarded as finding a position for Sun Li without affecting the framework of the script.

But in this way, Wang Yong's role and sense of presence will inevitably be weakened.

It's just that Xie Junhao himself is an artist under Hairun's banner, so of course he has no opinion on this plan.

So Pang Hong decided to agree to Hairun's suggestion after thinking it over and over again.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Sun Li starring in zero pay.

Pang Hong mainly valued Sun Li's popularity and popularity after successively starring in dramas such as "Jade Guanyin", "Happiness is Like a Flower", and "New Shanghai Beach".

……

As soon as Pang Hong settled Hairun, he received a call from Gao Fei on the other side.

After listening to Gao Fei's suggestion, Pang Hong did not give an answer immediately, saying that he needed to discuss it internally first, and then hung up the phone.

In Pang Hong's office, Xiao Kai, another associate producer, was sitting opposite him.

So when Gao Fei finished speaking, he heard it immediately.

After Pang Hong hung up the phone, before he could speak, Xiao Kai frowned and shook his head and said:

"Old Pang, isn't this Gao Fei a little too lenient?"

"He's just an actor, what's his business in casting?"

Hearing this, Yang Zhenjian on the opposite side immediately smiled and said:

"Mr. Xiao, you don't know that, he is not a simple actor."

"This Mr. Gao is also our investor, we have to respect him!"

It's just that his eccentric appearance obviously doesn't favor Gao Fei as an investor.

By the way, Yang Zhenjian is the art director and marketing director of "Painted Skin".

It was his handwriting to hype up the feud between Gao Fei and Zhen Dan before.

It's just that Gao Fei's energy is obviously beyond his expectation.

Therefore, after being warned by Pang Hong, Yang Zhenjian had no choice but to put away his original calculation.

And after Yang Zhenjian made such a fuss, Xiao Kai didn't bother to hide it anymore, and immediately said with disdain:

"Is it worth him to show off the power of a bigger investor?"

"Sure enough, an actor is an actor, you can't get on stage!"

Hearing this, Pang Hong couldn't help but glared at him with a slight frown and said:

"Actor? Which actor have you seen who can make a movie like "Search" within seven days?"

"Old Xiao, to put it bluntly, let alone you, even our Ning Film Studio didn't have this ability before!"

Pang Hong, the old man of Ningying Film Studio, knows how a movie is born from nothing.

Pang Hong understands better than the two of them what it means for Gao Fei to be able to solve the audit, name, director, actor and even the terminal screening in such a short period of time.

This shows that Gao Fei cannot be summed up by just one actor, whether it is connections or funds.

It's just that when Pang Hong said it so bluntly, Xiao Kai couldn't hold back his face.

But he didn't say anything after all.

After all, Pang Hong was right.

Don't look down on him, he can't look down on this, and he can't look down on that.

But if you really want to let him go, he really can't do it!
And after seeing Xiao Kai got into trouble, Yang Zhenjian at the side finally put away the little calculation in his heart, and said seriously:

"Mr. Pang, I'm really not targeting Gao Fei."

"It's just that Zhao Wei, the character of Pei Rong, has also taken a liking to her, and she contacted us last night."

Speaking of this, I saw Yang Zhenjian earnestly persuaded:
"Mr. Pang, this Yu Feihong is obviously not as good as Zhao Wei in terms of fame or status!"

"So I really don't think you need to care too much about Gao Fei's suggestion."

"You know, we have seven or eight investors. If anyone speaks, we will listen. Will we still be filming or not?"

Seeing what he said, even Pang Hong couldn't help but nodded slightly.

Because Yang Zhenjian was right.

It's just that what he cared about was not Gao Fei's face, but another thought.

So after pondering for a while, he saw Pang Hong's eyes move, and suddenly looked at Chen Jia who had been silent in the corner and said:
"Director Chen, if you don't consider other external factors, who do you think is more suitable, Zhao Wei or Yu Feihong?"

Hearing this, Chen Jiashang was also a little puzzled.

However, he still carefully recalled the film and television works of the two of them.

After a moment of silence, Chen Jia touched his chin thoughtfully and said slowly:

"With Zhao Wei's acting skills playing Pei Rong, there must be no problem."

"It's just... tsk, how should I put it, her acting style is a bit too flat, there are no surprises."

"As for Yu Feihong's acting skills, although it can't be said to crush Zhao Wei."

"But in terms of character characteristics, I think she may be more suitable for the role of Pei Rong than Zhao Wei."

Hearing this, Pang Hong nodded silently immediately.

However, he still did not make a decision immediately, but made several phone calls one after another.

In the end, Xiao Kai, Yang Zhenjian and others looked puzzled and decided to choose Yu Feihong.

Seeing the puzzled expressions of the two, Pang Hong sighed helplessly and said:
"You two don't even think about it, what kind of movie are we making? Painted skin!"

It is said that in 1969, Xiangjiang had actually filmed a "Painted Skin", and it was introduced to the mainland for release in 79.

It was the first Xiangjiang horror film imported from the mainland. It can be said that that version of "Painted Skin" truly represented the horror memories of a generation.

Because it was too scary, it was banned from playing at first.

I don't know if it was because of the scary reason, but after the CCTV version cut about 20 minutes, the 74-minute version of "Painted Skin" was able to be broadcast on "Six Princesses".
