Chapter 939 The Old Actor and the Newcomer

This time, the cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has a very strong lineup.

In addition to the male and female leads Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling, Huang Yaoshi is played by Zeng Chang, Hong Qigong is played by Liu Xie, Yideng Master is played by Liu Zhaoming, Ouyang Feng is played by Yang Zhelin, and Zhou Botong is played by Qin Dun. Qin Pei, who plays Temujin, and these main actors, Yin Jun found them and stuffed them into the crew.

The above-mentioned old actors, except for the dance king Liu Zhaoming, who was borrowed from TVB, the rest are actually actors from the original Jiashi, that is, the people brought by the Six Gentlemen of Jiashi from TVB. Yin Jun is really grateful. They left such a good golden supporting role to themselves.

Adding in a young man named Guo Jing Gu Tianle, Yin Jun basically introduced the actors, and Xiao Sheng chose the rest himself.

Xiao Sheng had no objection to the fact that his crew had already found so many actors for him.

This is not because Yin Jun is his boss, but because Xiao Sheng knows that Yin Jun will never use power for personal gain. The actors selected by Yin Jun must be the most suitable for the roles in the TV series.

This time, the adapted script of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was written by Yin Jun himself, and the two leading actors were also decided early.

At first, Xiao Sheng didn't understand why Yin Jun would choose to wait for that British girl for a year. The moment he saw Weng Meiling, he felt that Yin Jun was mistaken this time.

As a result, when Weng Meiling came out after changing her clothes and gave him a playful smile, Xiao Sheng was immediately fascinated. Who else could this be but Ronger?

Therefore, Xiao Sheng could only admire Yin Jun's eye for seeing people again, and he had no objection at all to the people Yin Jun named after him.

In fact, Xiao Sheng knows all these veteran actors and actresses. They are all old people who have worked together for many years.

Regardless of their age and image, it is definitely not possible for them to play the male lead, but it is definitely more than enough to play some important supporting roles.

For example, Zeng Chang's performance in "Speed ​​of Life and Death" is simply superb. It is not the kind of vicious evil, but the evil that emanates from the bones, which makes people tremble with fear.

Even foreign film companies are inquiring about who this Chinese actor is.

It was precisely because of his outstanding performance that even when he came to the mainland when "Speed" was released, the staff of Qilin Culture rushed over and gave him a generous contract.

In this contract, Zeng Zhang, who had never been a protagonist before, actually jumped from the second level to the fourth level, second only to the fifth level of Zhou Runfa, Wu Weiguo and other leading niche players.

This is very impressive. In one year, the guaranteed income can reach more than 200,000 yuan despite droughts and floods. This is definitely a manager level in a large company.

Besides, everyone knows that Yin Jun is generous with his dividends from movies and TV series.

Needless to say, it goes without saying that we can only wait until the official dividend distribution at the end of the year.

Once it is a drama, super drama, or movie that sets a record, Yin Jun will give extra rewards.

This was the case in the last "Police Academy".

This time, "Speed", although the final ending has not been released, is certain to be a box office hit. Judging from the high record of 52 million U.S. dollars in the first week of box office in Europe and South America, the global box office will definitely exceed 3 billion dollars.

The cost of filming and promoting "Speed" is only 65 million U.S. dollars. Excluding taxes and other expenses, the box office is now guaranteed to get 90 million U.S. dollars, a net profit of 25 million U.S. dollars, although there is no investment from the previous "Police Academy" The output ratio is high, but this time the promotion is to increase the reputation of Qilin Movie, so the two cannot roughly compare the amounts.

Since he can earn 25 million US dollars, which is more than 120 million Hong Kong dollars, Yin Jun's bonus will be extremely generous.

Otherwise, everyone would be willing to do things for Yin Jun?

Including those staff members who are not part of Qilin Film, such as Zhang Yaozong, Huang Yuehuang, Ao Zijun and others. When they come to Yin Jun, in addition to looking at the super large production of more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, Yin Jun is willing to give money and is generous. , don't care about it, and are willing to share the fruits of victory. These characteristics are all important reasons why they want to play for Yin Jun.

In Xiangjiang, no matter how skilled or acting expert you are, you can't escape the word money.

According to the staff who came to the crew later, Yu Zheng had been instructed by Yin Jun to distribute bonuses according to the standard of 50 million Hong Kong dollars.

Although this is just Yin Jun's statement, the trip must be approved by Le Yiling in the end, and Le Yiling is particularly concerned about money, so it is probably not as much as 50 million, but at least 30 million should be there - Le Yi Ling is Yin Jun's sister. Many times she can win back Yin Jun's decision, but she can't stop Yin Jun from stepping down.

Good guy!

A bonus of 30 million Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to the salary and salary of everyone!

In this way, important actors, especially villains like Zeng Chang, still have to get 1.8 million?

Putting aside this enviable reward, Xiao Sheng was actually very grateful to Zeng Chang and others for coming to help him.

Whether it is Dongxie, Xidu, Nandi, Northern Beggar or Old Naughty Boy, these people are not the protagonists, but they are very important. They are interspersed in the plot and appear all the time.

With their help, the two young male and female protagonists can better integrate into the TV series.

Oh, by the way, in order to make Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling more compatible, starting from Xiangjiang, Xiao Sheng let the two of them go out to play together and cultivate a tacit understanding together.

It's the same when we get to the mainland. It's definitely the two of them who spend the most time together.

Originally, Xiao Sheng was worried that Weng Meiling had never acted in a TV series before and would not have enough tacit understanding. However, he did not expect that from the beginning, Weng Meiling behaved very smartly and looked like Ronger in every move, making Huang Rihua fool around.

The feeling of one being stupid and the other being cute is really amazing!

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" requires too many actors, with more than a hundred names and surnames alone.

Of course, it is impossible to choose all these people from the actors in Xiangjiang. It is easy to say that in Xiangjiang, more than 100 actors are required to come to the mainland to film. What about the filming of Kylin TV in Xiangjiang? Didn’t everything stop?

Therefore, even if Xiao Sheng really wanted Wu Weiguo to play the handsome Yang Kang, Guo'er's father, he had no choice but to give up.

He didn't even bring young actors like Tony Leung, Andy Lau, and Ng Chun-yu.

So, this really leaves a lot of space open.

Yang Kang, Mu Nianci, Ouyang Ke, Yang Tiexin, Mei Chaofeng, Wanyan Honglie, Qiu Qianren, etc., at least more than fifty important actors need to be found in the mainland.

Xiao Sheng is not worried that Baodao will be stuck, because Yin Jun has given enough benefits. If he can't bear this, how can he get the benefits of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars?

Besides, how do people in Baodao know which actors are from Xiangjiang and which are actors from the mainland? Should we check them one by one?

The most important thing is to communicate more with mainland actors and production staff and give them some opportunities so that they can cooperate better in the future... This is what his boss said. Of course, Xiao Sheng relied on Yin Jun's words.

Not to mention, there are so many good talents among the actresses and actors sent out by schools and theater troupes in the mainland.

After Xiao Sheng came to the mainland, it took him two weeks just to read their information, send out the plot of the script, and interview them.

With the crew discussing it together, he quickly found all the characters with names and surnames.

But among them, those are the ones he is most optimistic about.

The first one is naturally Chen Baoguo, who plays the most handsome boy Yang Kang in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

He is very handsome with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He plays the role of the pampered little prince of Jin Kingdom, the son of Yang Tiexin who also has thick eyebrows and big eyes. It is a perfect match.

Another young man who was actually evenly matched with him, named Chen Daomin, was a little thinner and lacked the graceful temperament when he wore ancient clothes, so he played the role of Ouyang Ke, the nephew of Ouyang Feng, who is still handsome.

Yang Kang's woman Mu Nianci, Xiao Sheng chose a mixed-race female dancer from the Central Song and Dance Troupe named Zhang Weixin.

25-year-old Zhang Weixin is not only beautiful, she doesn’t even need to put on makeup between her eyebrows. As long as she changes into clothes, she looks like a classical beauty from the painting.

Moreover, she has good dancing skills and can perform a swordsmanship that is very beautiful.

There is also an actor who Xiao Sheng is most optimistic about. I heard about it before coming to the interview. This young man named Jiang Wen is a genius in Chinese opera. When I look at it, I feel that he exudes a sharp aura. , very angular and masculine.

It's a pity that there is no such role in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so I have no choice but to let him play Mei Chaofeng's husband Chen Xuanfeng first. This ruthless man who sacrifices himself for his wife is also kind of like breath.

A Chinese opera student named Zhang Tielin was also spotted by Xiao Sheng and played the roles of the two brothers Qiu Qianren and Qiu Qianzhang.

Another actress named Siqin Haowa, who was not pretty but had a very elegant demeanor, was chosen by Xiao Sheng to be Guo Jing's mother Li Ping.

The temperament of Yang Kang's mother, Bao Xiruo, matched well with that of an actress named Pan Hong, so she also played the role of Bao Xiruo, who had a major role.

As for Mei Chaofeng... Xiao Sheng chose an actress named Li Ling.

As a result, when people read the script, they were not willing to act at all and would rather be a maid.

Because this actress named Li Ling played a pure-hearted teacher in the movie "Miao Miao" last year and won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress. How could she be willing to destroy her image all of a sudden and play a vicious character? woman?

In the end, the leader who brought her here did a lot of work for her before she reluctantly agreed.

…

There are many such examples. Basically, Xiao Sheng will be very satisfied after choosing one.

These mainland actors are never lazy. They take the script and start studying it. Apart from eating, you can see them reciting lines and acting in scenes everywhere.

Although they have not read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and are unfamiliar with the characters and plots in it, and even have little exposure to the novel form of martial arts novels, this does not prevent them from constantly exploring and exploring .

And these students and actors are not ashamed to ask questions.

After discovering that the actors in Xiangjiang were very polite and kind, almost as soon as the break came, they helped to prepare face and foot washes, handed over wet towels, and then started asking questions.

As Wannian's supporting actors, Zeng Zhang and the others don't have much arrogance in nature, and they are all seasoned actors, so usually a few words of advice can make the mainland actors feel enlightened.

After everyone communicated like this, the crew had a very harmonious atmosphere, which made Xiao Sheng and others feel a little more confident about the filming of the TV series.
