Hong Kong Entertainment: Kung Fu Superstar 1981

Chapter 103
There are only three months from mid-September to Christmas.

And within these three months, post-editing will take at least another month or so.

From the submission of the script to the completion of filming, it only took two months...

It's another time-sensitive job.

What to shoot?

Zhang Yang held his chin in his hand and thought seriously.

In fact, Zhang Yang knows a lot about low-cost and profitable films like "Mr. Zombie".

But for these, if he didn't gather a supporting team, he would really have no idea.

Unless, like in "Mr. Zombie", the original team can get together and he doesn't need to appear on the scene to cause trouble, he doesn't want to go into battle himself and risk trying some comedy. After all, he is really unprofessional when it comes to acting. .

Sure enough, it has to be an action movie.

Subconsciously pressing the end of the pen barrel, Zhang Yang closed his eyes and thought.

The short shooting cycle means that the scene should be as simple as possible, without having to change locations back and forth...

Ok?
It seems to have!

Zhang Yang opened his eyes suddenly, then put pen to paper and wrote three big characters.

"Slaying the Wolf".

In this film, except for the scene in the first half of the film where Wang Bao sends someone to kill a witness, there are no big scenes that are difficult to replicate. Especially in the second half of the film, there are many night scenes in the streets and alleys, which don't even require trouble. scenery.

The workload of setting up scenes is reduced, and the time left for shooting will naturally be more abundant.

Within two months, Zhang Yang is absolutely confident that he can finish filming this film!
……

The next day, Zhang Yang, who had worked all night to write the script, rushed to Jiahe.

Although during the gambling agreement, Zhang Yang proposed a clause that the script of the new film would not be submitted for review, but Zhang Yang himself did not want to pay any of the production funds provided by Jiahe.

When he came to He Guanshang's office and placed the script in front of him, Zhang Yang went straight to the point without making any circles.

"The expected investment for this film is 800 million."

800 million was not a big sum for Jiahe, who had a large family and business. However, He Guanchang did not nod directly. Instead, he picked up the script and read it twice. After confirming that it was an action movie, he felt slightly relieved. Take a breath.

"Okay, I will ask the accountant to transfer the money to Yingyang Company's account. Yangzi, I heard that your boxing match is very popular. There are also rumors in the industry that you will accompany ATV to do variety shows. I don't want to restrict your development. , but you'd better not forget..."

"The film will be handed in before Christmas, right? I'll count on it, don't worry."

Zhang Yang, who hadn't slept all night, was so sleepy that he couldn't listen to He Guanchang's nagging.

Seeing Zhang Yang's look, He Guanshang knew that he hadn't slept well, so he simply stopped talking and raised his hand to wave.

Before, he would have definitely couldn't help scolding him, but with the success of "Mr. Zombie", he gradually understood the shrewdness of Zou Wenhuai's approach.

If you can make money for Jiahe, then you can do whatever you want. When you can no longer make money, everyone will slowly liquidate it.

Zhang Yang took the script back from the table, and after leaving Jiahe, he went straight back to Yingyang Company and started contacting the actors.

The first is the selection of the starring role.

Naturally, Zhang Yang himself plays the role of Ma Jun in the film.

In addition, among the remaining actors, Zhang Yang still followed his method, giving priority to the original actors in the film, such as Simon Yam and Liao Qizhi. Disaster.

And for the rest that can’t be found or have no schedule, you have to show off and find a way.

The most important thing among them is two people.

The film's biggest villain, Wang Bao, and Wang Bao's number one killer, Aji.

Not long after the completion of "Mr. Zombie", Hong Jinbao's "Scary" had already started filming. At this time, he was at his busiest time. He wanted to play Wang Bao, who had a heavy role in the film, but naturally there was no chance. , and even if he is willing to shoot, Hong Jinbao still has a simple and honest image, so he may not be the most suitable candidate.

In addition to Hong Jinbao, Wu Jing, who plays Ah Ji, is still a half-year-old child at this time, so naturally he has to be replaced.After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yang picked up the phone on the table and dialed back to the boxing gym.

"Yangzi, what's going on?" Chen Yijie answered the phone and asked curiously.

"Where is Lu Huiguang? Ask him to come over."

"Oh, wait a minute."

Chen Yijie shouted loudly on the phone, and a moment later, the phone was picked up again.

"Mr. Zhang, you called me?"

"Yes, I wanted to ask you if you are interested in acting in a movie?"

After the words were spoken, there was no movement on the phone for a long time.

Obviously, Lu Huiguang was stunned.

A low murmur came, as if Chen Yijie was nodding at him. Lu Huiguang, who had come back to his senses and woke up from a dream, responded repeatedly with a smile.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Zhang is willing to take me to make a movie, of course I am happy!"

The film industry was so hot in 82. There were already almost ten movies with a box office of over [-] million.

Lu Huiguang is not a fool. If he has the opportunity to enter the film and television industry, how can he endure loneliness.

"Now take a taxi to Yingyang Pictures. Ajie knows the address. I'll wait for you to sign the contract."

Putting down the phone, Zhang Yang marked Lu Huiguang's name on the back of Aji and touched his chin.

The number one killer is taken care of, who should be called next as the number one villain?

If we only talk about fighting, Zhou Bili can certainly do it, but the aura on his body, although domineering and tough, lacks the unique cunning and courage of the people of Sijiang and Lake. If you ask him to play the role of a gangster, he will not necessarily……

Hey?
and many more!

Damn it, there is obviously a big shot in the world next to me, why do I still have to find someone to act?

Zhang Yang suddenly woke up and patted his head repeatedly.

It's really hard to stay up all night, and I almost forgot about the most suitable candidate.

Zhang Yang picked up the phone on the desk again and dialed directly.

Soon, the phone was picked up, and Chen Huimin's angry voice came through the phone.

"The big star still remembers my friend. I heard that the new movie is selling well. When will you treat me to dinner?"

"Brother Min is willing to give me an interview. Please tell me earlier. I've always wanted to invite you, but I'm afraid you don't have time."

"Haha, okay, I know you, Yangzi, are loyal. Well, I'm free tonight, so why not do it today."

"No problem. I'll call Fu Ji to book a private room now. I happen to have something serious to discuss with Brother Min."

"Oh?"

After Chen Huimin heard this, she was slightly startled, but then she laughed again.

"You and I really have a heart-to-heart. I also have something serious that I want to talk to you about."

This time, Zhang Yang was a little confused.

"Brother Min, what's going on?"

"You'll know what happened when it comes. Hey, it's settled. I'll go to Fuji to find you at nine o'clock tonight."

After Chen Huimin finished speaking, she hung up the phone first, leaving Zhang Yang in a daze listening to the busy tone on the receiver.

He actually has something serious to discuss with me?
What kind of drama is this going on?
