The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 286 Trendy Style
"But isn't your eldest brother also a signed artist of Shaw Brothers, if he came out to help me, Shao Daheng wouldn't nod, would he?" Chu Yuan said again worried.

Hearing what he said, Jiang Dawei and Er Dongsheng felt a little embarrassed, "It's like this, my elder brother's contract expired last year, and I talked with Shaw Brothers about adding labor, but it's a pity that Shaw Brothers did not agree on shrinking expenses. My elder brother was annoyed. Renew the contract with Shaw Brothers."

"It turned out to be like this, then ask him to come to me for a test play later." Director Chu Yuan nodded and said in his heart that it was a coincidence that Qin Pei had filmed with him before, and although he was young, his acting skills were top-notch Yes, it should be able to perform Fu Hongxue's spirit.

"Then I will thank Director Chu on behalf of the elder brother." Jiang Dawei also said very happily.

After the eldest brother left Shaw Brothers, he has not found a job and is planning to become an actor on a TV station.I didn't expect to be able to join the Xu family as the protagonist now, what a surprise that fell from the sky.And who doesn't know that director Chu Yuan's last "Meteor Butterfly Sword" was a big hit, and this "Tianya Mingyue Knife" will definitely not be bad.

Director Chu Yuan was also very happy to find two main actors in a row, and then he brought Er Dongsheng back to the company.

Xu Guanwu has also heard of Er Dongsheng's name before, and knows that he is a talented filmmaker who is an actor, director, screenwriter, and producer.The films he starred in such as "The Sword of the Three Young Masters", "The Passionate Swordsman Ruthless Sword", "Chinese Warrior", "Goodbye Seven Days of Love" and so on have achieved good box office.

And he wrote and directed "The True Story of Epilepsy", "Unforgettable", "Unforgettable Love", "Shinjuku Incident", etc., which became even more popular. Like a throne of awards.

He has supervised and produced countless films, supporting half the sky of Hong Kong literary films and realistic films. He is still active in the front line until the new century, and he can be regarded as a relatively long-term filmmaker.

Xu Guanwu is very happy to be able to recruit this talent into the company. After a few more years, he will make literary and realistic films. I am not afraid that there will be no director.

Director Chu Yuan then recruited Qin Pei into the company and asked him to try out the role of Fu Hongxue.Although Qin Pei used to play a handsome boy, but now playing a tragic hero like Fu Hongxue, he quickly entered the role at his fingertips.

Seeing his resolute face, gloomy eyes, and unyielding demeanor, Chu Yuan knew that Fu Hongxue had found someone.

Xu Guanwu was extremely happy to be able to bring Qin Pei, a golden supporting role in Hong Kong, into the company.Qin Pei, a character who has to be mentioned in the history of Hong Kong movies, although there are not many movies as the protagonist, but there are countless movies and TV series in his life.

Whether it is a treacherous villain, a sweet dad, a celebrity, a rich man, or a common man, he can play the role vividly. He is a rare golden and green match in the Hong Kong film and television industry.In many of the movies he starred in, without the foil of Qin Pei, many of the protagonists would look very pale.For example, "The Legend of [-] Million Detective Lei Luo" starring Liu Dehua.

The protagonist of a movie can be wrong, but the supporting role must not be wrong. This is by no means empty talk in the film industry.

……

After confirming the candidates for the two main roles, director Chu Yuan then hired several actresses on TVB, finally assembled the main crew members, and then started filming at the Huada studio.

At the same time, there are four films being filmed, and Xu Guanwu also feels very happy. If there is filming, he will make money, and if there is no filming, he can only support idlers.

Now most of the people in the company still have new movies to shoot, except for two people.One is the elder brother Xu Guanwen, and the other is Cheng Long.

Eldest brother Xu Guanwen is thinking about the script, he has always been strict with the script, and absolutely does not want to make a bad movie to fool the audience.Although with his current fame and reputation, even if the next movie is slightly worse, the audience will still buy tickets to watch it in the theater.But Xu Guanwen still didn't want to use something casually to perfuse the audience.

Xu Guanwu originally wanted to give the script of "Half a Catty" to his elder brother, but after thinking about it, he should wait for his elder brother to figure it out on his own. If there is no new script, it will not be too late to come up with "Half a Catty".

Compared with Xu Guanwen, Hong Jingbao, Mai Jia and others, Cheng Long is a bit sad.Those three people all have their own screenwriting team, Xu Guanwen has his apprentices Liu Tianci and Deng Weixiong, Hong Jingbao has Qiao Wang's military adviser Huang Bingyao, and Mai Jia has a story box Huang Baiming, all three of them are not short of good scripts.

But Cheng Long is still alone. At the beginning, Xu Guanwu helped provide the script, but it is not good to keep using other people's scripts.But he didn't like the script written by the company's screenwriting department.So I have been worrying for the past few months, and I have been holding back my mind to learn from my senior brother and find my own Duqiao military advisor.

It's just that good screenwriters are hard to come by. So far, Cheng Long still hasn't found his own screenwriter, which makes him feel very frustrated, and the new film has been unable to open for a long time.

Xu Guanwu wanted to give him the scripts of blockbuster films such as "Junior Brother Goes Out" and "Master Dragon", but after thinking about it, he put away the scripts.The landlord's family doesn't have any food left. When these scripts are used up, what should Xu Guanwu produce?I'd better wait and see, and if I really can't find a new script by then, I'll come up with it at that time.

……

In May, Zhang Guorong's meticulously prepared album "LESLIE rock your body" was finally completed and ready to be released to the public.

Xu Guanwu also attached great importance to Zhang Guorong's debut, and couldn't help but provide him with many songs, and also helped to participate in the arrangement work.

Although Xu Guanwu knew nothing about arrangers, he couldn't resist listening to these songs before. The preludes of the songs were hidden in his mind, and he could hum them at any time, which provided a lot of help to the arrangers.

At the same time, Xu Guanwu also gave a lot of opinions on the MV shooting.The so-called has never eaten pork, but has seen pigs run.Xu Guanwu has seen too many MVs in his previous life, some are visual, some are aesthetic, some are lyrical, some are story...

Zhang Guorong himself is a very handsome man, and the filming is a disco music MV, so the MV of the visual department is the most suitable.In terms of makeup, it has also changed from the previous clear soup and water, but is quite avant-garde, with smoky makeup, black lips, dyed and permed hair, tight leather clothes, big buttons, etc., which looks quite cool.

But at the beginning Zhang Guorong almost cried after listening to Xu Guanwu's suggestion. Dressing up like this is not a serious person, just like the hippies on the streets of Britain, they are the most lawless, dirty and filthy group of people.

But the arms still couldn't twist the thighs, and Zhang Guorong finally had to sit obediently in front of the mirror and let the makeup artist do all the work.

Although what Xu Guanwu said is simple, it is not that simple to really change the appearance.At that time, the makeup technology was quite backward, and no smoky makeup, black lips and other shapes were ever applied, so I tried about 50 times before and after. Almost got allergic.

But nothing is difficult in the world, as long as there is a heart, after repeated attempts, the makeup artist finally mastered the technique of smoky makeup, which made Zhang Guorong's face more and more refined.

"This makeup method is great. With this kind of makeup, the eyes look bigger, deeper and more three-dimensional." The makeup artist said in amazement after finishing the painting.

"Really?! Let me take a look." A group of people also came over to see Zhang Guorong after putting on smoky makeup. Sure enough, his eyes looked two circles bigger than before. They looked big and deep, and his facial features suddenly appeared. All become three-dimensional.

"Wow! Isn't this a life-saving magic weapon for women with small eyes? This is really great." A group of makeup artists exclaimed in surprise.

Women have always loved beauty, and makeup is also to cover up their flaws and make themselves look more beautiful.It's just because the makeup technology in the 70s is still relatively backward, and many advanced techniques have not been designed.So some blemishes can't even be covered up with makeup.

As if born with small eyes, it was difficult to use makeup skills to make the eyes bigger at that time.So this has become the tragedy of many small-eyed actresses.Originally, the eyes are big and beautiful, but my own eyes are small, and they are even smaller when placed in front of the camera, so naturally they don't look photogenic, and of course they miss the protagonist.

But now with this kind of makeup technique, it can at least make the eyes of the actress one-third larger, and make the facial features more three-dimensional. Even a pork chop can become a beautiful woman.

"Mr. Xu, how can you even do makeup? Is this the latest makeup technology in the United States?" A group of makeup artists asked excitedly.

Xu Guanwu scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this, and said to himself that I don't know if there is such a makeup technique in the United States, but I have seen it from the MV of Korean actresses of later generations.

Later generations, Japan and South Korea can be regarded as the indicators of the popularity of beauty makeup in East Asia. In the early days, many makeup techniques became popular from Japan. Later, South Korea came from behind and gradually surpassed Japan to become a major cultural exporter.Korean dramas, Korean stars, and Hallyu music have swept across Asia, and have aroused great repercussions all over the world.

However, South Korea is still in a period of dictatorship, and its domestic economy is extremely backward, and even worse than neighboring North Korea for a period of time.However, after the 70s, South Korea's economy began to grow rapidly, and together with Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan, it was called the Four Asian Tigers.

……

Under the suggestion of Xu Guanwu and the cooperation of the makeup artist, Zhang Guorong finally completely changed his appearance and completed the transformation from a handsome boy to a star of tomorrow.

After putting on smoky makeup, black lips, a new hairstyle, and a tight leather jacket, he exudes a wild and unrestrained charm all over the place, making all the female makeup artists present couldn't help staring at him .

"Wow! Leslie, you look so handsome." A female makeup artist exclaimed.

"Yeah, it looks really handsome." The other also said nympho.

Zhang Guorong stood there, looking at himself in the mirror, feeling both strange and familiar, and being watched by so many people at once, he couldn't help being a little embarrassed and nervous.

"Mr. Xu, is my outfit really okay?" Zhang Guorong asked without confidence.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, ask everyone, is Leslie's outfit okay?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

"Okay!" Everyone present shouted together.

"handsome or not?!"

"So handsome!"

"Look, isn't it? Everyone's eyes are sharp." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

Being exaggerated by everyone, Zhang Guorong also has confidence in his makeup, and he can't help but become less resistant and try to appreciate it.

……

"Norman, to shoot the MV for Leslie, it must be beautiful, and it will attract a lot of people once it is broadcast." Xu Guanwu told Zheng Donghan, "The picture must be handsome, dazzling, and cool!"

Although Zheng Donghan didn't quite understand what Xu Guanwu meant by cool and dazzling, he also understood his thoughts, "Don't worry, Stanley, in order to shoot the MV for Leslie, I specially hired a director from the United States to shoot, and I will definitely not disappoint you of."

"That's good. Remember, you can't be stingy with money. You must spend the money that should be spent. When Leslie becomes famous, all these investments can be recovered." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "You see, in order to get Wen Wen How much did it cost to build a band into an idol star, but now that a few albums have been released, they can earn back immediately. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to become a star without spending money."

"I know all of this, and I guarantee that the money will be spent properly." Zheng Donghan also nodded.
