Chapter [-] I need to find a beautiful vase

Among Hong Kong actors, Li Lianjie is indeed the most suitable. Whether it is his kung fu background or his appearance and temperament, he is undoubtedly the best candidate for the young Huang Feihong.

In fact, in Xu Ke's mind, there is another candidate who is also very suitable, and that is Yuen Biao who has successfully shaped a generation of master Ye Wen.However, comparing the two's action styles, appearance and temperament, Li Lianjie is indeed superior.Even at this time, Li Lianjie's box office appeal in Hong Kong was not as good as Yuen Biao's.

As for why Zhang Yi chose Li Lianjie instead of Yuen Biao, Xu Ke naturally didn't know, Zhang Yi was completely influenced by the original version.From his point of view, the reason why he made such a choice might be because he wanted to cultivate Li Lianjie.

Although Li Lianjie followed the trend of the international style, but after all, his background is too poor, and there are too few works that can be produced.Moreover, acting skills still need to be honed.

Cooperating with Zhang Yi in a movie, the actor will not ask questions unless Zhang Yi speaks. I guess there is no film company and director that does not seek Zhang Yi's opinion.

"The male protagonist Huang Feihong is played by Li Lianjie, what about the female protagonist Thirteenth Aunt?" Xu Ke continued to ask.

"What do you think of Guan Zhilin?" Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"Very beautiful!" Xu Ke nodded and said.

Very beautiful, Xu Ke is praising Guan Zhilin's appearance, but the underlying meaning is undoubtedly questioning her acting skills.

For actors or singers, complimenting your appearance is definitely not giving you affirmation.But a tactful denial.

Zhang Yi naturally heard it, took a look at Xu Ke, and said with a smile: "Aunt Thirteen is actually the role of a vase in the film. Naturally, I want to find a beautiful vase."

"What about the others?" Xu Ke didn't bother, but asked.As for the actors recommended by Zhang Yi, as long as they are not good enough, they will not sweep Zhang Yi's face.After all, there are many directors Zhang Yi can cooperate with in Hong Kong.

"The rest is up to you. In fact, I'm just a suggestion for the male and female protagonists. If they are really inappropriate, it's okay to replace them." Zhang Yi waved his hand and said.

He invested in this series of movies, but he didn't have much interest in doing it.Now he shoots movies, and his interest accounts for a large proportion.Moreover, Zhang Yi's pursuit of vision is getting bigger and bigger.If a movie doesn't have some decent visuals, he won't be interested.

When shooting "Mulan", he just wanted to make the war scenes bigger and more shocking.

Negotiated cooperation with Xu Ke.But it will not start preparations soon, after all, Xu Ke is putting all his energy on the upcoming "Zhu Xian" at this time.

When Xu Ke was filming "Zhu Xian", Zhang Yi was busy filming "Jurassic Park", so he didn't pay much attention at all.Even now that "Zhu Xian" is being promoted in full swing, Zhang Yi doesn't pay attention, and he doesn't even know who is starring.

As a filmmaker, Zhang Yi is obviously unqualified.

The movie "Zhu Xian".It's a big production in Hong Kong.Apart from several films by Zhang Yi, this film is definitely among the best, not to mention number one.

"Zhu Xian" is invested by Media Asia Corporation.Has an ATV background.This is not the film's release, but also a copy of Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park" premiere, and it is a sub-broadcast, above the publicity.It is definitely not weaker than Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park".This is only for Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.In Europe and the United States, no film studios value it at all.

In the eyes of filmmakers in Europe, America and other places, only Zhang Yi's films in Hong Kong can guarantee the box office.Other movies haven't conquered them yet.

Although "Zhu Xian" also bears the imprint of Zhang Yi, but this oriental magical story, will it be unacceptable in the West?The studios are still not sure.The only thing left to do is to wait for the movie to be released and see the reactions in Southeast Asia and other places.

At the premiere of "Zhu Xian", Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin attended the premiere holding hands, which immediately caused great commotion.

For the two who seldom appear in front of the media, they have always been strongly sought after by various media, especially when they appear in front of the media at the same time.

"Mr. Zhang, are you satisfied with Director Xu's adaptation of your novel "Zhu Xian"? Has it achieved the effect you expected?"

As soon as Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi appeared, countless reporters surrounded them, and one of them asked loudly.And those reporters, if Ruoduo's bodyguards hadn't blocked them, they would have rushed up and surrounded Zhang Yi and the two of them.

"Hehe. I haven't watched it yet, so I really don't know how to answer. However, I believe that director Xu Ke's ability will definitely make a work that many fans of "Zhu Xian" will be satisfied with. Otherwise, I won't talk to director Xu Ke again and again. Cooperation." Zhang Yi smiled and said immediately.

"I heard that Mr. Zhang plans to cooperate with Director Xu to remake the Huang Feihong series?"

The other reporter seemed to be well-informed and heard some rumors. Hearing Zhang Yi's words, he immediately asked loudly.

"It's true." Zhang Yi nodded and said.The last sentence just now was actually to make these reporters ask this question.Moreover, about the news about the remake of the Huang Feihong series, it was Zhang Yi who deliberately let people out.

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that you are not optimistic about shooting "Zhu Xian" at this time, so you did not invest in Director Xu's film." A reporter then asked, and changed the topic back.After all, what people are most concerned about at this time is not Zhang Yi's new film, but the upcoming "Zhu Xian".

"Zhu Xian" is a very high-selling novel by Zhang Yi, and has a huge fan base. As soon as it is announced that this novel will be adapted into a movie, it is highly anticipated.However, it was also covered up by Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park" some time ago.But now, although the dinosaur trend set off by "Jurassic Park" has not faded, it is no longer so crazy.

"If I thought it wasn't when I was filming "Zhu Xian", I wouldn't have given the copyright to director Xu Ke. After all, I want to give an explanation to the book fans. This film has been under pressure for a long time, and I only gave the copyright to Director Xu when I knew the breakthrough in special effects technology. Director Xu Ke. As for filming "Zhu Xian" if you don't watch it at this time, it's nonsense." Zhang Yi said to the reporter, still smiling.

"Why didn't Mr. Zhang invest in this movie?" The reporter seemed to confirm this, and said, "When Mr. Hong Jinbao filmed "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", Mr. Zhang invested a large amount of money. It is also an adaptation of your novel, Why invest in one and not invest in the other?"

Zhang Yi naturally knew that if he showed his words here, the media would take the opportunity to hype him the next day, saying that Zhang Yi didn't like the movie.

"Investing in "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" may be because Brother Sanmao and Mr. Pan thought it was risky and asked me to invest to share the risk. In the end, the box office was satisfactory. As for why he didn't invest in "Zhu Xian", it was because Mr. Lin was extremely optimistic about this film. The box office of this film is full of confidence. I don't need to invest in it to share the risk." Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"Hehe. Everyone, as Mr. Zhang said, I am really optimistic about this movie, and I don't have any worries about the box office. I want to borrow Mr. Zhang's novel to make a fortune for the company. If Mr. Zhang invests, I can just I earn a lot less." Lin Jianyue walked over with a smile, said to the media, then looked at Zhang Yi and said, "Mr. Zhang, Ms. Zhou, I have admired you for a long time. Please come inside!"

"Mr. Lin, please!" Zhang Yi said with a smile.

Although this Lin Jianyue is a rich second generation, just like Pan Disheng, he is a capable rich second generation, not some dandy who only knows how to eat, drink and play.Even, this person is much more professional than Pan Disheng in movies.

"I heard that Mr. Zhang is planning to film in mainland China?"

Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin followed Lin Jianyue to the theater, and Lin Jianyue suddenly asked Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi nodded, and looked at Lin Jianyue curiously.

"Mr. Zhang went to the mainland to shoot movies several times, and several movies were released in the mainland. I wonder what Mr. Zhang thinks about the mainland film market?" Lin Jianyue asked Zhang Yi when he saw Zhang Yi watching.

"The mainland market has great potential! With the economic development of the mainland, it is very likely to be comparable to the North American market." Zhang Yi thought for a while, and then said, "However, the restrictions on movies are obviously very large, and it is difficult for many movies to be released in the mainland. .”

The potential of the mainland film market is naturally huge, after all, where is the population base?As for competing with North America, although it will take some time, it is not impossible. (To be continued..)
