Chapter 573: The Unknown Film King
When making a movie in Xiangjiang, naturally the most important protagonists should be Xiangjiang people.
No matter what kind of big star you are abroad, you should not dominate the scene here, but should be a supporting role for Xiangjiang actors.
This is something Yin Jun decided early on.
For example, in "Tomb Raider", the heroine in it is a mysterious kung fu girl from Huaguo. Even among the people she meets, most of them are of yellow race, with a small proportion of white race.
There is also "Resident Evil", the story takes place in a Chinese country, and the main characters have all become Chinese.
Yin Jun has never set his films with foreign backgrounds, and then relied on foreigners for more than a hundred years to beat the world's prestige box office.
He prefers to do a good job of entertainment, and then lose Huaguo's values to the world. Don't let the funny people in Europe and the United States be manipulated by those media and public opinion, thinking that Huaguo culture is terrible, ignorant and backward.
In "Police Academy" this time, there are a total of ten protagonists and some important supporting roles in the entire movie. Yin Jun is only planning to reserve three places for foreigners.
For the most important personnel, he still prefers the most suitable candidates in his mind.
With an ultra-high investment of 60 million Hong Kong dollars, Yin Jun does not know how much he can sell in the United States and Europe, but generally he will not lose money.
After all, classics are classics, except that the Americans were replaced by many Xiangjiang people, there is basically no difference at all, and Yin Jun also added some other jokes, which can at least play 120% of the power.
What's more, now there are Americans, Japanese, and British. The box office of these places is not guaranteed, but at least they will not be excluded.
Therefore, it is really not difficult to get a box office of about 40 million US dollars.
The original version earned almost 80 million US dollars at the box office in the United States alone!
When Minxue received Yin Jun's call, she was a little surprised, but when she heard Yin Jun talk about the investment scale and ambition of the movie, she was overjoyed.
"Good Ah Jun, you really take good care of my sister! It's not in vain that my sister loves you!" Lixue laughed heartily.
To say that Lixue is definitely not a super beauty, but this woman is very tasteful, it is definitely very suitable to be a wife, and she is very good at life.
In the past, when Yin Jun was still a fledgling screenwriter, he didn't have much contact with Yan Xue at all. Yan Xue even came to Yin Jun's production of "Wulin Biography" to support him, and gave Yin Jun a lot of encouragement.
It is easiest to have sincere feelings in the small things.
Because at this time, when others care about you and take care of you, they are definitely not trying to covet you, after all, you have nothing.
Therefore, Yin Jun has always remembered the favor of Lixue.
After the most suitable candidate, Zhong Chuhong, went on a trip, Yin Jun simply gave her the role. Thompson, a woman with a heroic air, is very similar to Li Xue in many costume movies.
Thompson's boyfriend Mahaney, Yin Jun chose to let Zhang Guorong play the role, but Zhang Guorong was still a little reluctant.
He is not interested in filming at all now, he thinks that it is acting according to other people's wishes, pretending to be crazy and acting stupid, which is far less free and free than music.
There's no way, this rich son's temper has come up, and it's really hard to coax.
Fortunately, Yin Jun is his good friend. The last time he asked Yin Jun to help write a song for Chen Baiqiang, Yin Jun also agreed. Before going to Japan, he gave a classic song like "I just like you", which made him feel happy. I like it very much, which shows that Ah Jun is a good friend.
Since Yin Jun is so interesting, then he came to ask him for help this time. With Zhang Guorong's personality, he was naturally too embarrassed to refuse. After asking clearly and only shooting for a month or two, he finally agreed.
Yin Jun didn't even know what to say about this future Uranus superstar.
You can say that he is lazy, but whenever he has time, he will hang his voice and practice singing. In his previous life, he did not develop the bad habit of smoking.
However, apart from singing, he only likes to pick up girls in his spare time, let alone filming, he is unwilling even to do commercials, which really exhausts his manager.
But Zhang Guorong is also young, and there is still time to improve himself. At least he did not waste the 6 years in his previous life. Although he was a little young and frivolous, he was walking on the right path.
Apart from Zhang Guorong, the rest of Yin Jun's friends will be much happier.
Listening to Yin Jun talking about the big production he wrote the script and invested in, whether it was Zhong Zhengtao, Zheng Zeshi or Chen Baixiang, they agreed without asking about the salary, and Chen Baixiang also directly helped his good friend Chen You to agree to star in without asking. Whether others are willing or not.
As for Guan Haishan, who played the principal Lasha, and Ren Dahua, who played Playboy George, Yin Jun handed it over to Wang Jing.
Even for some other characters that appeared, Yin Jun let Wang Jing choose by himself, and in the end he just checked it out.
Wang Jing was very satisfied with this.
Although most of the characters don't have the right to choose, what kind of director is a director if he doesn't choose an actor he likes?
He, Fatty Wang, was also a person who had been famous before, so he couldn't really become a yes person, could he? I'm still a good director with aspirations!
Among the people Yin Jun explained to him, there is no doubt that Ren Dahua's George is the most important actor.
If Yin Jun hadn't mentioned it, Wang Jing wouldn't even know that TVB TVB still has Ren Dahua.
It's no wonder that Wang Jing is ignorant, it's that Ren Dahua is not outstanding at all, and now at the age of 25, he is still playing tricks, and he can't compare with those fellows who came from the TVB artist training class.
For example, when Wang Jing went to TVB TVB's filming studio to find Ren Dahua, he was doing a part in a local drama, and he was playing with a few gangsters. The kind of villain whose simple and honest male protagonist who also has a rustic flavor is beaten to the brim.
Seeing Ren Dahua, who was all in black and had a sinister face, fled while being beaten, and still didn't forget to swear, Wang Jing felt that this person was actually more suitable to be a gangster.
As for being a playboy, he doesn't have that taste in him.
After finally waiting for the producer to yell "click", Wang Jing greeted Ren Dahua in front of him.
"Brother Jing, you called me?" Ren Dahua hurried over without wiping off the dust on his face.
"Hua Zai, how many years have you been in TVB?" Wang Jing asked.
"It's been several years." Ren Dahua replied carefully.
He is a smart man, Wang Jing will not come to him out of nowhere, maybe there is some good opportunity.
Not to mention that Wang Jing himself is making movies for Shaw Brothers, his father Wang Tianlin is a gold medal producer in Xiangjiang TV industry, even Xiao Sheng, the first producer of Xiangjiang, has to politely call him Brother Tian when he sees him.
In the chatting among them, some people were lucky and were suddenly discovered by the producers to play an important role in a movie, and then became a hit... Such a legend is simply not too much, he Ren Da Huaneng Name seven or eight such examples.
Because of the precedent, when Ren Dahua heard that Wang Jing was looking for him, he immediately ran over without even wiping his face.
"Well, it can be seen that you still have some ability." Wang Jing opened his eyes and said nonsense, "I have an opportunity for you now, can you seize it?"
"able!"
Ren Dahua was overjoyed, and his black face showed uncontrollable joy.
"I'm going to make a movie recently. If you can quit your side job, just quit and come to our side as soon as possible." Wang Jing handed him an address and asked by the way, "Are you paying for the film?" What are the requirements?"
"No request." Ren Dahua said without thinking, "As long as you give me a chance, Brother Jing, I will be satisfied. You can give me any salary you want."
Although Ren Dahua is called Wang Jing "Brother Jing", both of them were born in 1955. Ren Dahua is two months older than Wang Jing, but in this world, rankings are never based on age, but on strength. the most important.
Wang Jing smiled when he heard the words, "Don't be so nervous and excited, this drama is much better than you imagined. Young Master Jun wrote the screenplay and produced it himself, how can he treat the people below? You, I don't know what happened Good luck with shit, Young Master Jun asked you to play a role by name and surname, maybe you will be like Wei Xiaofan, Hui Tianci, Zhong Zhengtao...they will get up all of a sudden..."
What Wang Jing said later, Ren Dahua didn't remember at all.
Ren Dahua didn't even know when Wang Jing left.
He drowsily finished today's extra work, and then returned home in a daze. After eating, he lay on the bed, and his eyes suddenly became clear.
Yin Jun wrote the script himself, participated in the investment of the film, and then personally named himself to play a role. Such a dream, I only dared to think about it before, but unexpectedly it suddenly became a reality!
Ren Dahua was a member of the wireless artist training class in 1974. In his class, there was a man who radiated light like the sun.
Zhou Runfa.
No matter who it is, they all live under Zhou Runfa's halo.
When I go out and talk about the class of graduates I am from, people will say, "Ah, you are Zhou Runfa's classmate".
Anyone who has a little self-esteem will feel uncomfortable, unhappy, and resentful when they hear this.
Everyone has two eyes and one nose, why should I be worse than you?
Ren Dahua has honed many roles and acting skills in the past few years. Although he dare not say that he is a great success, he is not far behind Zhou Runfa.
He is confident that if he gives himself a chance, he will surely succeed!
In the future, I will ask everyone to talk about the 74-year wireless artist training class, so not only will there be Zhou Runfa, but there will also be Ren Dahua! !
Now, this opportunity has arrived! !
The era that belongs to me, Ren Dahua, is finally coming! !
