I am not mentally ill, I am the actor with a thousand faces!

Chapter 123, Zhou Xingxing

At this time, in Hong Kong, "New Police Story" is here.

Chen Musheng and Jackie Chan are also busy working on this movie.

The same is taken seriously.

This is the post-millennium reboot of the Police Story series. Distributors, producers, and actors all attach great importance to the launch of this work.

It is also a work with a powerful emotional attack.

"Originally the protagonist should be Leslie Cheung."

"The script I took over later turned him into our new police story."

At this time, Cheng Shilong and Chen Musheng also talked about the origin of the script in their spare time.

Even the protagonist’s name is ‘Chen Guorong’ in memory of Leslie Cheung.

Jackie Chan's attitude in this movie is quite resolute.

Shoot well, shoot well, and don't be stingy with the money you invest from beginning to end. An investment starting from 100 million will make this movie one of the best police stories.

"Our old employer, Chen Guanxi of the Royal Family, what do you think?"

"What to consider, audition is the big one."

Cheng Shilong said firmly at this time.

Even investors don’t give face when they come.

This is also Aaron's advantage.

Even if investors come, the quality of the film itself is the most important thing. When selecting roles, the only thing they consider is the film itself.

Quite an unsurprising answer.

If you don't even give investors face, that's a success story.

This is Jackie Chan.

"But I'm quite optimistic about that kid. He should be able to present us with a qualified role." Chen Musheng smiled at this time.

"If nothing else, Chen Guanxi should be one of the most outstanding people of the new generation in our circle. He can act, sing and dance. He is also handsome. Tsk tsk. I am so envious. There must be many Women probably like his kind. If he is the kind who likes to take pictures, maybe we can feast our eyes on him in the future."

"Whoever is serious takes pictures."

"That's not necessarily the case."

Cheng Shilong joked at this time that the communication with director Chen Musheng suddenly went to the lower third road.

Chatting between men is sometimes so simple and straightforward.

"Wu Yanzu is not bad, he also has his own advantages."

When it comes to evil and gloom, it is Daniel Wu, no one can compare with him.

Of course, we can’t help but talk about the last candidate.

Li Yun from mainland China.

The new generation of third-rate guys seems to be the least promising of the three candidates.

But Cheng Shilong personally selected it and wanted him to try it.

In fact, this itself surprised Chen Musheng. After all, Li Yun was completely inferior to Wu Yanzu and Chen Guanxi in terms of status and all aspects.

It looked like he was just here to run with me.

Even the number of escorts is slightly insufficient.

After all, the other parties are Chen Guanxi and Wu Yanzu.

If the acting performance in Infernal Affairs affected Jackie Chan's decision, then it wouldn't be necessary.

After all, Liu Jianming and the villain of this movie, Aguan, are very different.

"You are wondering why I invited that Mr. Li." Cheng Shilong looked at Chen Musheng and smiled slightly.

"Actually, I didn't even think about letting him star in this movie. He's still a bit lacking."

"Ah, you just asked him to run with you?" Chen Musheng was a little surprised, and what he said was really straightforward.

In fact, this is also true when you think about it.

An investment of 100 million Hong Kong paper.

A large-scale commercial production.

Jackie Chan, a super international superstar, plays the leading role.

Even the people invited to audition are second-rate guys from big companies, but there are actually some deals behind them.

To put it bluntly, Li Yun just doesn't have this style.

To put it bluntly, even if Li Yun performed better than Edison Chen and Wu Yanzu, he would not be able to win this role.

There is a qualitative difference.

"I admire this young man. I saw in his TV series that he dared to fight, dare to fight, and dare to do it on his own, so I am also willing to give him this opportunity and let him show up on my invitation list. This will also help his career. It is considered Give him a little tug."

But in fact, Jackie Chan thinks so too.

Li Yun's role is not suitable for their new police story.

A superb team.

There is no need for a third-rate person from the mainland.

Cheng Shilong is still very clear. I appreciate it from a personal perspective, but I also don't like it from the production direction.

You can still tell the difference.

I will not interfere with the direction of team production just because of personal preference.

"Why do you have to go in person when this third-tier mainland kid comes to audition for Jackie Chan's movie?"

"I heard that there was a young immersive actor from mainland China, so I stopped by to check it out. Wang Jing had praised him before, and I was just curious about what he was like. "

"It's a rare thing that you can be curious about."

"That's not what you said. It's just that Fatty Wang said it, and I thought it was a bit interesting."

At this time, there was a middle-aged man with slightly white hair in front of him, who was reading a book.

The name of this book is The Actor's Self-cultivation.

The person reading this book is called Zhou Xingxing.

At this time, Li Yun also came to the audition site of New Police Story.

Participated in auditions in Hong Kong.

After a short journey, we went to Xiangjiang.

In this place at this time, Li Yun also felt the arrogance of this audition. Even the hotel used for the audition was of special quality.

"You are so arrogant. This is not how you spend your money." Li Yun clicked his tongue.

Unlike themselves who came alone, Chen Guanxi and Daniel Wu came surrounded by people.

Bold and arrogant.

I heard that the investment ambitions for this movie are quite large.

100 million Hong Kong paper. In other words, if the box office does not reach 200 million in the end, he will not even be able to make back his money.

Li Yun naturally doesn't care about this issue.

I don’t know whether I can play this role or not.

Nothing is certain yet.

At this time, Li Yun sat silently in the corner, carefully reflecting on his role.

Guan Yun.

A bad kid.

It was because of his parents' arrogance and lack of discipline that he turned into a villain.

What Li Yun wants to highlight is his self-destructive tendency.

The madness that is not afraid of death.

After all, if he wasn't a lunatic.

Nor would he kill a policeman to score points.

Madness is what Li Yun wants to portray for this character.

"I don't know if this method is right, but it always feels a little off."

Li Yun touched his chin.

But he also quietly waited for the audition to begin.

At this time, the evil young man in front of him looked at Li Yun and smiled arrogantly, which was quite ugly.

He is a very pure villain.

The purity of madness, the purity of evil.

Eunuch Cao came to treat him before.

Now the middle-aged scribe came to treat him again.

But he still persists in his madness and evil, as well as his ubiquitous self-destructive tendencies.

"Just go with this feeling."

At this time, Li Yun closed his eyes quietly.

"Mr. Zhou is here."

"Brother Long, there's no need to be so polite."

Cheng Shilong warmly welcomed Zhou Xingxing in front of him, and he didn't expect to wait until he arrived.

Although both of them are treasures of the previous generation of Hong Kong movies.

It is also the pride of comedy filmmakers, but in fact, the two of them do not have much intersection. Jackie Chan considers himself a social butterfly and has many friends in the industry.

It can be regarded as one with the image journey in the movie.

But Zhou Xingxing's words are different from the image in the movie.

He doesn't laugh that much.

I don't have many friends either.

He is always said to be the king of comedy.

But he is the king of comedy who never laughs.

It's just that Zhou Xingxing, who has always had little contact with people, why did he take the initiative to find him today?

It did surprise him a bit.

"Come to see an actor audition." Zhou Xingxing said with a slight smile at this time.

At this time, Cheng Shilong and Chen Musheng suddenly realized that the Emperor's face was really great.

For Chen Guanxi, Zhou Xingxing was invited to help out.

Invite all the kings of comedy here.

Although it doesn't have much practical effect.

But is it considered a psychological blow to the opponent?

"The Emperor invited Zhou Xingxing here. Hey, he really tried his best for this audition for me."

At this time, Chen Guanxi said lightly and shook her head.

At this moment, I even feel a little disgusted with Emperor Entertainment's approach.

What if we bring people here?

It’s just to show Emperor Entertainment’s status in the world.

Move the old generation giants out here.

But today's audition is indeed interesting enough. Two giants from the Xiangjiang film era are gathered here.

The two of them are truly giant actors in the industry.

Seeing Zhou Xingxing's arrival, Jiang Ling also felt that this was Emperor Entertainment. Did he invite people here without any notice from above?

After all, except for Emperor Entertainment, no one here could invite Zhou Xingxing.

"Wait a minute and be polite to the seniors." Jiang Ling only thought that this was an unexpected surprise, which gave her Chen Guanxi more confidence and a good audition.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether it can increase your confidence.

It’s important to be able to influence other people’s confidence.

The current arrival of Zhou Xingxing should be able to affect the confidence of others.

It's just that a giant like Cheng Shilong, who has no money and salt, otherwise, because of his status as an investor in Emperor Entertainment, he wouldn't be able to let Chen Guanxi come to the audition, so he would be directly appointed.

"Wait and behave well..."

The person in the other world at this time was Wu Yanzu, who was also the seed contestant for this audition. He had already decided on the role at the beginning of the planning.

Li Yun and Chen Guanxi were the ones who broke in.

The original setting of the character was called Guan Zu.

The role was tailor-made for him.

It suits him better from beginning to end.

Wu Yanzu, on the other hand, highlighted the decadence in his image and went in a somewhat gloomy direction in terms of makeup.

When this gloomy image appeared in front of Jackie Chan and Chen Musheng, they only nodded slightly.

not bad.

He is worthy of being the actor chosen from the beginning.

"Wow, so melancholy." Zhou Xingxing said in a low voice: "He is indeed the most handsome boy in China as the media always says."

"I'm an American..."

"That's it."

At this time, Zhou Xingxing touched his chin without saying anything and continued to enjoy Wu Yanzu's performance.
