Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Far away in Hong Kong, in a movie screening room, seven or eight people gathered here to enjoy a movie, which was "The Man from Nowhere" shot by Nie Wei.

Among these people, the most obvious one was a man wearing glasses. No matter how exciting the fighting scenes were, or how exciting or terrifying the process was, his expression never changed. He would only suddenly ask people to pause the movie at certain times, and then ask some questions to a little old man next to him who looked to be in his 50s or 60s.

"Did he use Baguazhang just now?"

"Yes, this is Baguazhang's chopping palm. It is said that Xingyi is like a gun and Bagua is like a knife. Baguazhang is originally inspired by knife skills, so you see that the chopping palm is sharp and swift, does it look like a knife chopping down?"

"What you said is true. I think his footwork seems to have some particularity. Can you tell me about it?"

"This is the basic stepping mud step of Baguazhang. Bagua's body movement requires walking like a dragon and turning like an eagle. The emphasis is on swinging and buckling. Play it back and look at his steps carefully. Is it like this?"

"Really, eh? Is this also Baguazhang?"

"This is not Bagua, this is Xingyi's cannon fist. Good guy, it's really good." Seeing Nie Wei's thunderous cannon fist on the screen, the old man couldn't help but cheer loudly.

The movie of more than two hours finally ended in a pause.

The middle-aged man with glasses asked the old man next to him again: "What do you think of his ability?"

"I can't say that." The old man who usually comments on the spot suddenly waved his hand at this moment, indicating that he couldn't comment.

"Why can't you say that?" The middle-aged man was not happy. Didn't he come to you to listen to your advice? Why did he fail at the critical moment?

The old man smiled bitterly and explained: "I said I can't say that because he is very capable."

"How big?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes lit up immediately and asked hurriedly.

"It's hard to say if I haven't really seen it, but from the posture in the movie, at least he is a national-level martial arts athlete like Jet Li back then, and he fights really beautifully." When he said this, the old man couldn't help but sigh, thinking that Nie Wei was also a genius, who could do business, act, and was so good at martial arts.

"So, he was the right person to find?" The middle-aged man looked at Nie Wei on the screen, and his eyes were more and more satisfied.

But the old man beside him couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard this, and couldn't help but remind him: "Director Wang, I'm not saying anything too much, do you think he will agree to you with his current achievements?"

"Why not? As long as he agrees, I will promise to take him to the Oscars." The middle-aged man answered confidently.

Oscar, the name is indeed very similar, but does the other party really care? The old man is not sure, not to mention...

The old man smiled bitterly and sighed: "But you let him play the villain."

"What's wrong with the villain? The villain tests the acting skills and has room to play. And he has played the villain before. Don't persuade me, help me send an invitation to Nie Wei." The middle-aged man made the decision himself, and no one at the scene raised any objections.

Seeing that no one objected, the middle-aged man picked up the sunglasses on the table and put them on, and left the screening room directly. The few people left looked at each other, and didn't know what to say for a while.

Indeed, as the middle-aged man said, Nie Wei had played a villain, and that role was the key to Nie Wei's real popularity. However, although Nie Wei was very popular at that time, he was still a newcomer in the film industry. But now it is different. Nie Wei has won the Golden Horse Best Actor Award, and several movies he has shot have achieved very excellent box office data.

It can be said that in the Asian film industry today, Nie Wei, who is both a director and an actor, has already stood at the top of the pyramid. All the people who are as famous as him are big names who are extremely loud when they are called out.

"Ask the staff to post it. Director Wang is so famous. I believe there will be good results." In the end, it was a middle-aged man with a bulbous nose who spoke.

However, the words of this middle-aged man did not receive much response, so people were actually not optimistic about this invitation to Nie Wei.

At this moment, Nie Wei did not know that he had been chosen by a big director, and he still wanted him to play a villain role. He was inspecting his own department store at this time.

Fanxing Department Store has now become a very important part of Nie Wei's business. In the spring and summer quarters, the net profit is close to 1 billion yuan. If nothing unexpected happens, it will bring Nie Wei 2 billion Chinese yuan in revenue a year, which is already a considerable figure.

Fanxing Department Store can achieve such good results. First, Nie Wei has a good management. Fanxing Department Store has many unique features, which undoubtedly attracts many high-quality customers. In addition, because the high-end service is very good, the stickiness of customers is also very good. At present, Fanxing Department Store has attracted tens of thousands of members with a net worth of more than one million to join the Fanxing Club, and there are many wealthy people with a net worth of hundreds of millions.

In addition, the location of Fanxing Department Store is also very good.

Originally near the city center, and because it is located on the road that the Olympic main venue must pass, this area is definitely one of the most prosperous areas in Kyoto.

And Fanxing Department Store is undoubtedly the iconic commercial building in this prosperous area, attracting countless passers-by to walk into this large shopping mall.

Nie Wei is very satisfied with the development of Fanxing Department Store. Although He Sheng, the general manager he appointed, is only thirty-five years old, he is both passionate and steady in his work. He is thorough in everything and manages a large shopping mall in an orderly manner.

Before leaving the mall, Nie Wei specifically promised He Sheng that as long as he achieved the goals he set by the end of the year, He Sheng would be rewarded with shares in the mall.

In Nie Wei's view, such a talent should be tied to his own chariot, and it is most appropriate to tie him up with shares. After all, with shares, he will have a change in mentality, and he will change from a migrant worker to a migrant worker. When you become the owner of a shopping mall, you will naturally put more effort into your work.

Nie Wei seems to have paid a small amount of equity, but if He Sheng can do better, then this small amount of equity investment will actually bring Nie Wei hundreds of times in return.

After leaving the mall, Nie Wei got into the Mercedes-Benz. Luo Kai, who was driving in the front seat, immediately asked him where he was going next.

"Go home." After giving the order, Nie Wei closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap, but before he could find the feeling of sleepiness, his cell phone suddenly rang, waking him up instantly.

"Brother Zhonglei, what's the matter?" Nie Wei took out the phone and saw that it was Wang Zhonglei, so he answered the call directly.

"I have something to tell you. There is a script I want you to act in." Wang Zhonglei said.

Nie Wei frowned at first. Wang Zhonglei called him specifically for a script. This was very wrong. In an instant, Nie Wei thought that it must be a problem with the script, and asked: "What script is it? Is it special?"

"Wang Jiawei's new movie." Wang Zhonglei replied. After hearing this answer, Nie Wei secretly thought that it was true.

In the Chinese film industry, there are several directors whose works are absolutely coveted by actors, such as Li Yu, Wu Yusen, and Wang Jiawei, because their films not only bring fame to actors, but also Come to countless honors.

This is also the reason why Wang Zhonglei specifically called Nie Wei after receiving Wang Jiawei's movie.

"What subject matter?" Nie Wei was very curious. Wang Jiawei saw what advantages he had in himself and actually invited himself to star.

"Martial arts." Wang Zhonglei replied, but after he finished speaking, he hesitated because he had already read the role specified in the invitation and the attached outline. Wang Jiawei actually wanted to invite Nie Wei to play the role. A villain, isn't this a joke?

After thinking about it, Wang Zhonglei told Nie Wei frankly about the matter.

"Villain? It's not impossible, but I won't say anything until I read the script." Nie Wei was not surprised to hear that Wang Jiawei wanted to cast him in a martial arts movie, but Nie Wei was stunned to find him to play the villain. For a moment, Nie Wei was just a little surprised. He quickly came to his senses and decided to read the script before talking.

As for the villain, Nie Wei no longer resists. On the contrary, if it is really that kind of charming villain, Nie Wei is willing to play the role, just like he had no reason to reject the role of A Wei.

Soon, Nie Wei came to the company, and after letting Luo Kai move freely, Nie Wei went straight to Wang Zhonglei's office.

When he entered the office, he saw Wang Zhonglei sitting there holding a document and reading it. When he saw Nie Wei enter the room, he closed the folder in his hand and took out a thick stack of A4 paper from the desk and handed it to Nie Wei.

"That's the official script. The character they want you to play is called Ma San, who is the main villain in the film. I just saw the ending, and it seems quite miserable."

"I'll take it back and read it, and I'll give you an answer as soon as possible." Nie Wei took the script and didn't read it immediately. Instead, she put it away and prepared to go home and read it patiently.

Wang Zhonglei nodded and said: "Although it is Wang Jiawei's movie, if the role will affect your image, just reject it. I will handle the rejection then. You are still young, and there will be many opportunities to work with great directors in the future. ”

Wang Zhonglei is obviously not very optimistic about this cooperation. Although it is Wang Jiawei's movie, he is not the protagonist after all, and he is still a villain. Although Nie Wei once became famous for his experimental villain in "New Police Story", but that If you succeed in such a role once, you are already very lucky. Who dares to expect to be so lucky this time?

When Nie Wei returned home, Shu Chang was doing yoga. When he saw Nie Wei coming back, he quickly put down his posture.

"Didn't you say you'd be back in a while? Why did it take so long?" Shu Chang asked as he took Nie Wei's coat. It turned out that Nie Wei had sent Shu Chang a text message when she just left the mall, telling her that she would be home soon, but she didn't. It was expected that Wang Zhonglei would call.

"I went to the company and there was a special script." Nie Wei handed the script in his hand to Shu Chang and explained.

"The Grandmaster?" Shu Chang took the script and read it while looking at the text on the cover. Soon she let out an exclamation because she saw the name of the director on the cover of the script.

"A movie directed by Wang Jiawei?"

"That's right."

"Are you looking to play the leading role?" Shu Chang asked excitedly. As he opened the script, he found that the leading role was a forty-year-old uncle. He suddenly became a little confused: "What should you do at this age? Do you wear makeup? The age span is a bit big. Ah, isn’t it a bit difficult?”

"Not this character." Nie Wei pointed to the last character on the first page of the character introduction and said, "This, this is the character you want me to play."

"Ma San?" Shu Chang was surprised that Nie Wei was not the protagonist. He was very surprised, but he was still thinking whether this role was particularly outstanding. However, after reading the role introduction, he found that this was actually a big villain, and he was immediately a little angry.

"I don't want to act anymore. What? This is simply looking down on you." Shu Chang said indignantly. In her opinion, even if Nie Wei could not play the protagonist, he should at least play the second male lead. What is a villain? Is it an insult?

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Maybe Director Wang just thinks I am suitable. And I haven't agreed yet. I also have to read the script carefully. If this role is really outstanding, I will take it. If it's not good, I will listen to you and just turn it down, okay?" Nie Wei hugged the angry Shu Chang, stroked her hair, smoothed her hair, and explained.

"Then let's watch it together." Shu Chang was coaxed by Nie Wei and was no longer angry, but she also asked to watch the script together. She felt that she could also help Nie Wei in distinguishing whether the role was good or not and give her own suggestions.

Nie Wei would naturally not refuse this.

The script was a complete version, from which Nie Wei could see that Wang Jiawei really wanted to invite her, otherwise he would not be so formal and send the entire script.

Nie Wei also read the script very seriously.

In Nie Wei's opinion, the character of Ma San was indeed very bad. Not only did he kill his master, but he also betrayed his countrymen for the sake of profit. However, he was also a bad and charming person. He had strength, ambition, means and ruthlessness. In the final analysis, he was an ambitious man who would do anything to achieve his goals, and eventually died under his inflated ambition.

However, Nie Wei hesitated for a while about whether to take this role. Shu Chang thought that Nie Wei should just turn it down. In her opinion, this kind of role that betrayed the motherland was really unpleasant.

Nie Wei was busy with foreign investment issues these two days, so he threw the script aside and planned to pick it up and read it carefully after this busy period before making a decision.

And this hesitation lasted for a week.

Nie Wei's delay in replying made Wang Jiawei, who was waiting in Hong Kong, anxious. Although this was a villain role, in Wang Jiawei's eyes, this role was very important to the movie and was an indispensable part. He was also a director who kept striving for perfection, so he naturally wanted to choose the best actor to play it.

Nie Wei was his first choice in his mind. Director Wang had already recognized him for this role before Nie Wei explicitly refused.

The next morning, Wang Zhonglei suddenly received a call. After a few seconds, his face changed instantly. After hanging up the phone, he immediately dialed Nie Wei's phone number. The moment the call was connected, Wang Zhonglei didn't bother to say hello and said directly: "Wang Jiawei came to Kyoto, for you."
