Actor: My Entertainment Era

Zhang Yuanjun is a very professional actor. Facing the reporters' cameras, he worked hard to promote "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate".

"Director Xu Ke is very strict and has a very high level of control over details."

"I watched Li Lianlian filming a fight scene live, and his fighting skills were so beautiful. The director asked me to keep up with his pace. It was so difficult for me that I almost wanted to return the money and leave."

"The conditions in the desert are quite difficult, so work hard to overcome them."

Of course Liu Yifei will be asked.

"Some time ago, reporters photographed you and Yifei going home to attend a wedding." Zhang Yuanjun started to laugh at this point. "Are you going home to meet your parents?"

"I've been meaning to ask for a long time." Zhang Yuanjun didn't answer yet, "The news has been out for more than half a month."

The reporter smiled: "We still want to hear your personal answer."

Zhang Yuanjun nodded and gave the answer that reporters had been waiting for: "I have already met my parents."

The reporter smiled and said: "Then our colleagues in the office will be sad. What's your parents' impression of Yifei?"

"My parents both like Yifei."

"Is the wedding going to be on the agenda?"

"It's not so fast." This was the first time Zhang Yuanjun talked about their wedding to the public. "Yifei and I still have some work to do. We want to finish all the work at hand and leave a relatively sufficient time to do it." Regarding this matter, we don’t want to get married today and appear at the event tomorrow.”

Zhang Yuanjun's words made the reporter laugh, and the reporter confirmed again: "You mean if you want to do it, you will leave a long period of time before and after, including the wedding and honeymoon vacation, right?"

"Of course." Zhang Yuanjun confirmed.

"Where are you going on your honeymoon?"

"It's not so soon." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile, "Are you going to ask me when I will have a child next?"

The reporter smiled and left it at that: "Okay, thank you Yuanjun for accepting our interview today."

"Thank you." Zhang Yuanjun nodded in greeting.

Hit the board, end.

While Zhang Yuanjun was in the capital paying off the activities and interviews he owed, plus revising the script, he was extremely busy.

A plane from Los Angeles, USA, landed in Magic City. After a group of foreigners rested in Magic City for a night, they flew to Phoenix City where the crew of "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" was located the next morning.

Liu Yifei, who was filming on the set, received a call as early as the day after Zhang Yuanjun left the set.

The caller was an acquaintance of hers, Legendary Pictures creative director Joe Jasini, whom she met on the set of "Inception."

Qiao told Liu Yifei that Legendary Pictures was going to make a movie and wanted to invite her to audition for the leading role.

But Liu Yifei said at the time that she was currently filming on the set and could not come to the United States. She hoped that he could wait for her for a few months and fly to the United States to meet her as soon as she finished filming.

But Joe Jasini did not want to wait, saying that he and the casting director would bring people to China to meet her.

"I happen to be on a business trip to China, and I haven't seen Zhang for a long time."

Joe Jasini failed to meet Zhang Yuanjun in Phoenix.

Zhang Yuanjun didn't know that he had come to China.

Because they were acquaintances and invited by the film studio, rather than being negotiated for Liu Yifei by her agent, it was not considered a bad rule for Joe Jashini to talk to Liu Yifei directly.

Therefore, being Liu Yifei's agent is just superficial, but you won't actually earn any dividends. Most of Liu Yifei's roles come to her on her own initiative. In addition, her boyfriend has a wide network of contacts, so the film appointments that the agent can get are probably not as good as Zhang Yuanjun's. of.

Fortunately, many of Liu Yifei's fashion and business activities were negotiated for her by her agent. In addition, Zhang Yuanjun is particularly willing to spend money on Liu Yifei in terms of image management and public relations, so Liu Yifei's agent can also get a share of the drama contract. Make a lot of money.

Otherwise, being Liu Yifei's manager would be really laborious and not profitable.

The two parties made an appointment to meet at the hotel where Joe Jasini and others were staying.Coincidentally, Liu Yifei did not go out for a night scene that day. After finishing work during the day, she rushed to the hotel with her agent and assistants to have dinner with everyone from Legendary Pictures.

"It's strange. Yifei usually stays in the hotel after work and doesn't go out. Why did she go out today?" This aroused the curiosity of the crew colleagues.

Liu Yifei and her group came to the hotel, met Joe Jashini, casting director Magli Simkin and others, and then went to make a reservation at the restaurant.

As soon as the two parties met, Joe praised the performance of "Inception" in China: "It's incredible. The box office is nearly 9000 million US dollars, second only to North America. No one thought that "Inception" could get so much in China before. box office."

Legendary Pictures is also an investor in "Inception."

"But it's such a pity that the box office was bought by Zhang." Warner and Legend were almost furious about this.

Liu Yifei smiled and said: "I often say that if he was not an actor, he would definitely be a very good investor."

"Of course, his company is very famous in Hollywood." This is nonsense. Z Studio currently only has one film, "Buried Alive", which was made four years ago. "Never Ending" is next year, and "The Hunger Games" is still in preparation.

"We really didn't expect you and Zhang to drive so much box office in China." Warner and Legendary Pictures initially thought that "Inception" would still rely on Leonardo to sell tickets in China, but they discovered it after seeing the Chinese poster. , Liu Yifei and Zhang Yuanjun have the biggest names above, Leonardo's name is not easy to use in China, "Zhang must be your Chinese Leon."

Liu Yifei smiled and said: "I don't want him to be as carefree as Leon."

"Hahaha."

From here we can also roughly see why Legend took the initiative to invite Liu Yifei - she is so useful in the Chinese market.

If it weren't for the global market's need for a white face, Legend would even want to replace the male lead with Zhang Yuanjun.

During the meeting, Qiao talked about Legend's new movie: "We have a production agreement with Warner, and this movie is jointly produced by our two companies. The difference is that this time we are in charge.

"Because what we are doing this time is Legendary Pictures' best monster movie."

Liu Yifei smiled and listened patiently. In fact, she was already giving up.

Most of the female characters in monster movies are just vases that will die if they show their faces, which is not interesting.

It’s no wonder Liu Yifei thinks so. Let alone the heroine, even the male lead in a monster movie is not important.

Do Godzilla fans go to see the hero and heroine?

Are King Kong fans here to see Oscar winner Adrien Brody?
Just listen to Qiao continue to say: "But we plan to do something different this time, adding mecha elements on the basis of monsters."

At this point, Joe laughed: "Our boss Thomas is a big fan of monster movies, and director Toro is a fan of mechas. The two of them came together to make this movie."

After talking about the movie, Qiao then introduced her role to Liu Yifei: "Crystal, I won't give you a female character who shows off her face and shows off her coquettishness with big breasts and big ass. After all, we hope you can win in the Chinese market. Bring us profit." He said it very directly.

But sometimes this kind of directness may not be a kind of respect. Liu Yifei finally settled down after hearing this.

"You will be the hero's most effective assistant and combat partner, you..." Qiao told Liu Yifei her role.

Liu Yifei asked curiously: "Why are the emotional scenes so weak?"

"Come on, Crystal, monster movie audiences don't like to see the hero and heroine fall in love, they just want to fast forward to the appearance of the monster." Joe explained.

"OK, Joe, this role looks good, I'll consider it." It's rare to accept a role at the first meeting.

Of course, when marketing in the future, it will still be written, "When Joe Jasini showed the role to Liu Yifei, Liu Yifei agreed to Joe's invitation on the spot."

"I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible."

"Are you going to be here long?"

"No, we will fly to Shanghai tomorrow afternoon. We will stay in China for a week."

"Okay, I will reply to you within a week. I wish you a happy stay in China." (End of Chapter)
