new kung fu king

Chapter 619

The huge gap made Ji Chunhua, Hu Jianqiang, Sun Jiankui and other young people feel very angry. They decided not to make this film unless Director Liu gave him a salary increase.

As the elders of this group of athletes, Yu Hai and Yu Chenghui feel that it is very irrational to leave without saying goodbye after a brief discussion. After all, they all have contracts, and if they break the contract, it is very likely that they will suffer. Provincial sports teams.

Moreover, Wang Xiaohu managed to help everyone connect with a drama, which gave everyone an additional development path. If you act hastily, you can only discredit Brother Hu. How can everyone hang out in this industry in the future.

In the early stage of co-production, everyone didn't have much impression of the so-called contract. What's more, everyone's minds were relatively simple at that time, and their physical concepts made them take filming as a political task. calm down.

So holding back the fire, a group of mainland actors followed Liu Jialiang's crew to the Shaolin Temple in Putian, Fujian, and the two things that happened after that could no longer make the mainland athletes feel at ease to film.

"Master, I know you have a good relationship with Director Liu, but what he did was too much. After arriving in Putian, Fujian, they started to target us just because I wanted to increase the salary for everyone's promotion." Jet Li was furious. On the phone, he said: "When I was in Shaolin Temple in Songshan, everyone had the same standard of food, but when we arrived in Fujian, we ate a very simple standard. In order to meet the requirements of Liu Jialiang and other Hong Kong staff, they ate Cantonese cuisine, in their eyes, our food is like pig food!"

Wang Xiaohu snorted coldly when he heard the words: "Is there really such a thing?"

"That's right, Master, I'm really not complaining, but this incident made everyone feel very uncomfortable. It's not all about money, but also dignity. It seems that our hard work is worthless look."

Having said that, Wang Xiaohu has already made clear the main contradiction existing in the crew. Whether he entered the mainland to shoot "Mythology" or "Shaolin Temple", he should maintain the mentality of a mainlander, not because he is a Hong Kong director, What kind of jazz is the British and the mainland to draw a clear class front, whether it is for its own people or the staff of the mainland, there is a uniform standard in terms of salary, food and treatment.

Even if there was a little friction between each other during the filming of "Mythology", these things that should have have not been reduced.

In capitalist societies such as Europe and the United States, this concept of class may be very common. For example, in Hollywood, they allocate lounges according to the status of actors, but when the reason for such differential treatment comes from race If it is different, it is a serious mistake, which is illogical.

To put it more bluntly, in the co-production process, Wang Xiaohu not only acted as a director, but also was responsible for balancing the class relationship between the two, so that they respect each other, and they will not feel any discrimination psychologically. Under the checks and balances of the filmmakers, they also maintained a high level of enthusiasm, laying a solid foundation for the bright future of co-productions and setting a positive example for learning.

The standard of food has been lowered, but everyone is still patient. What really sparked the conflict between the two parties was on the set.

There is a scene in "North and South Shaolin" that shoots the sunrise and sunset shots. Anyone who has been a director knows that these two sets of shots are quite difficult to shoot, and sometimes the best shooting moment will be missed by 1 minute.

The most classic long-shot shooting in "Shaolin Temple" is not done in one shot. In order to shoot the Shaolin Temple in the morning fog and the realm of a thousand-year-old ancient temple, the whole crew also got up at five o'clock early to guard behind the camera, because the light is very bright. You won't wait for anyone, if you miss it, you will have to go to the next day.

When Jet Li and the others were filming "North and South Shaolin", Liu Jialiang asked all the staff in the mainland to get up at [-]:[-] in the morning, arrive at the shooting location on time, and prepare for the shooting.

Jet Li, Yu Hai, Yu Chenghui, Ji Chunhua, Sun Jiankui and others really appeared on the set at three o'clock in the morning. When the dawn approached, they became very anxious, because Director Liu Jialiang had not arrived on the set, and they had been waiting...

The first dawn came...Liu Jialiang still didn't come.

then……

The best shooting opportunity was missed, Jet Li and the others waited until ten o'clock in the morning before the director Liu Jialiang appeared on the shooting scene.

The first sentence he said was: "Oh! The light is not right. Didn't we plan to shoot the sunrise? We can't do anything now, so let's end today's work!"

These words were like a fuse, completely enraged all the mainland actors.

"What are you doing, playing tricks on us!" Hu Qiangqiang was the first to jump out and accuse Liu Jialiang in his youthful vigor.

"Damn, stop filming!" Sun Jiankui and Ji Chunhua also angrily took off their costumes, threw them on the ground, and said to Jet Li and others: "Go, they want to shoot whoever they want!"

Jet Li felt that Liu Jialiang did something wrong, so he stopped everyone and said, "Wait, I'll ask Director Liu to come and explain."

"What are you explaining?!" Liu Jialiang snorted coldly and said, "I am the director, and you are the actors I hired. I have the final say on the set. If you don't want to shoot, don't you? If you don't shoot, go away! I'll look for you later. Leadership Theory!"

"."

Everyone didn't expect Liu Jialiang's attitude to be so bad. It's fine if he doesn't explain or apologize, but he seized on everyone's shortcomings and kept talking to the leader, theory, theory, theory!
The two sides immediately quarreled. Hu Jianqiang and the others said that you do not respect mainland actors and wear small shoes everywhere. Liu Jialiang insisted on his own point of view. These three peacemakers, Jet Li, Yu Hai, and Yu Chenghui, were too busy. The scene was suddenly out of control, and a realistic version of "North and South Shaolin" was staged.

It wasn't until the security guards in the local scenic spot intervened that the two sides stopped fighting. In this martial arts exercise, Hu Qiangjian and Ji Chunhua were injured by Liu Jialiang, but Liu Jialiang didn't get any benefits here. They were beaten by Yu Hai with the mantis fist. .

After being pulled away, the two sides did not stop talking, and staged another eye-popping scolding battle
After Wang Xiaohu and Jet Li made it clear, he suddenly felt extremely dizzy.

Zhao Gang noticed that his brows were wrinkled, his face was very smelly, and his eyes were even full of powerful anger.

Obviously, Wang Xiaohu was deliberately trying to keep himself calm, and after a long time, he heard him say into the phone: "Where's Mr. Liu's family?"

"He went to the Ministry of Culture and lost his temper with Minister Huang, threatening to sue several martial arts teams, and returned to Hong Kong by plane yesterday afternoon," Jet Li said.

"Well, I know about this. Please comfort everyone and let them not worry about the contract. I'm here for everything." After Wang Xiaohu finished speaking, he asked Jet Li to hand over the phone to Minister Huang.

"Minister Huang, I would like to trouble you with one thing." Wang Xiaohu said after thinking about it.

Minister Huang over there hurriedly nodded and said, "Please tell me, Mr. Wang, I'm listening."

"Take the time to report to the higher-ups, and study and study the interim management measures for co-productions that we formulated during the filming of "Mythology."

Minister Huang was taken aback for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "You mean to introduce a complete management method that is binding on each other?"

Wang Xiaohu hummed, and said, "That's right, I feel that not putting these things on the table will be very detrimental to the development of future co-productions. Things like "North and South Shaolin" may happen frequently."

"Okay, hey, I see." Minister Huang sighed, and hung up the phone with a frown. He now understands what Wang Xiaohu meant, which is that the mainland will issue relevant documents, and everyone who enters the mainland will adopt co-production Hong Kong film companies or other countries that use this method must strictly follow the documents.

In the study, Wang Xiaohu hung up the phone, sat down on the sofa and sighed repeatedly. Zhao Gang knew that he was not in a good mood now, so he stood there quietly with a Chinese cigarette in his mouth, waiting for Wang Xiaohu to speak.

No one can understand Wang Xiaohu's bad mood at this time. He really doesn't have such a big style like Liu Jialiang. He even played a big role in the mainland and caused such a big incident. The mainland must have a certain view on Hong Kong movies. bad opinion.

As for the bad opinions, Wang Xiaohu can guess with his toes. They are nothing more than commonplaces when filming "Mythology" back then, about the bad nature of capitalist countries, about treating mainlanders as human beings, and about a bunch of big hat buttons here and there. Come here, the good impression he has worked so hard to maintain on the mainland will be instantly discounted!

Nima!Liu Jialiang, aren't you adding to the chaos!
In his previous life, Wang Xiaohu still respected this descendant of Huang Feihong. After all, he had presented wonderful and real martial arts movies to many people. After his rebirth, even Zhang Che, Hu Jinquan and others complained about Liu Jialiang's character. Well, Wang Xiaohu also thought that it might be an outside rumor based on his good impression in his previous life. We have known each other for seven or eight years, and we respect each other as guests.

But why did the descendants of this generation of grand masters do such things that made Wang Xiaohu feel super uncomfortable?

why?
You want the original crew of "Shaolin Temple", OK, I didn't say anything else, I will help you contact me right away!
You asked to help submit the script to the Ministry of Culture, and there is no problem. If I hadn’t left a sentence on the script, would your broken script with the same loopholes as a sieve pass the review?

The more Wang Xiaohu thought about it, the more angry he became. At this moment, the bodyguard Abao knocked on the door of the study and said loudly, "Brother Hu, Uncle Shao Sixth and Liu Jialiang are here to visit, and they are waiting in the living room downstairs."

Wang Xiaohu jumped up from the sofa and said to Zhao Gang: "Go, come down with me and meet them!"
