Chapter 1905 Fast Food Movie
Under Zou Hanqiu's persuasion, Zhang Zhengrong turned down the art film and agreed to shoot the gunfight film with Zou Hanqiu, which was considered a dual-male lead film. With Zhang Zhengrong's status, he could not play a supporting role again, unless he met a role he particularly liked.
Ye Qingqing asked about the movie, which was a typical commercial film. The director's surname was Wu, and he was also very famous in Hong Kong and also had a small reputation internationally, because he was particularly good at violent aesthetics. It was obviously a bloody and violent gunfight scene, but this director was able to shoot a beautiful feeling.
The hero series shot by Director Wu in the past two years laid the foundation for Hong Kong gunfight and violent movies. After that, a series of gunfight films appeared, but none of them could surpass those of Director Wu, and the leading actor of those films was Zou Hanqiu, who was considered Director Wu's exclusive male No. 1.
Zhang Zhengrong had worked with Director Wu before, but later he developed towards art films. Due to health reasons, Zhang Zhengrong only made one movie a year. After making an art film, he had no time to make other movies, so he had not worked with Director Wu for several years.
In the previous life, Ye Qingqing had nothing to do at home, so she rented discs to watch at home. She basically watched all the movies from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, especially those from the 1990s. She also watched bad movies. It was too boring, so she could only watch movies to kill time.
Although the movie introduced by Zou Hanqiu could not win awards, it was a big hit at the box office and had a good reputation. It also brought some nonsensical funny factors. Zhang Zhengrong's acting skills were enough to cope with this kind of commercial movie. He could play it well with his eyes closed. There was definitely no confusion about not being able to get out of the role.
Zhang Zhengrong was still a little unwilling, mainly because he liked the movie role of Director Wei too much. Based on his many years of experience in the film industry, as long as he acted with his heart, he would definitely be able to win another title of Best Actor.
Zhang Zhengrong was a little reluctant to give up the honor that was at his fingertips. He had not yet reached that point. He came to Ye's house for acupuncture that day, and Zou Hanqiu also came with his wife.
"We have to go back to Hong Kong to shoot a new movie next month. It should be very busy to catch up with the New Year's schedule. It may not be possible to do it once every three days." Zhang Zhengrong was a little embarrassed.
In the past few days, Ye Qingqing gave him acupuncture, and after taking those pills, his body did feel much better. In the past, he always felt like there was a big stone pressing on his heart, which made him feel stuffy, but now the big stone seems to have become smaller, and it is not as stuffy as before. His appetite has also improved a lot. The driver took them to taste a lot of local delicacies. In less than a week, he gained three or four pounds.
"It's okay, you're recovering well, you can do it once every ten days in the future."
Ye Qingqing first gave Zhang Zhengrong acupuncture, and inserted needles all over his body, and then took Mrs. Zou's pulse. He recovered well, and Zhang Zhengrong breathed a sigh of relief, "Ten days is enough, this time can still be squeezed."
Ye Qingqing wondered: "There are more than two months before the Chinese New Year, and the filming next month will only take a month. Can this time make it in time for the New Year?"
She always felt that filming a movie was a long process. In the past, she always heard reports that a certain director worked hard and went through hardships to make a good movie. It took several years to make a movie that was well-received and popular. Anyway, those reports made filming extremely difficult, but now listening to Zhang Zhengrong's tone, Ye Qingqing felt that filming a movie was like playing.
After filming, it still needs editing, plus publicity and so on. In fact, the actual filming time is less than a month. Is it really in time?
