Chapter 203 Beating Incident (34)
Compared to Chengtian's Wu Kebo, Huang Zhonglei obviously paid more attention to Shen Xudong. He actually arranged for Huo Tieyan to send him back to his room!
As for that?
Shen Xudong is just a screenwriter!
Not a big shot...
Want to make such a big investment?
Well, this thing is actually the usual routine of the Wong brothers, learning from the excellent traditions of Hong Kong entertainment industry, um, public relations...
The Emperor has relied on this thing to open up many paths over the years...
Because of this, since Zheng Xiyi's debut, wireless concerts of all sizes have arranged her program - whether it is "Fundraising Show", "Anti-Inflammation Angel", or "Rookie Guest"...
Then, in 2003, the Independent Commission Against Corruption got involved!
When the media reported that Zheng was taken away, they used the term "just like the ladies from the Mainland Red House assisting in the investigation." ’
In Hong Kong circles, capital determines everything, and artists are commodities to be traded.
Capital can decide which artist will film or sing, can control public opinion, and can even interfere with the judiciary. Therefore, for artists, it doesn't matter whether they have professional skills or not. As long as they please their bosses, they can ensure that their stardom will last forever.
Isn’t it very similar to the craziest years of domestic entertainment in later generations?
So, there is nothing new under the sun!
Unfortunately, Shen Xudong refused...
It's not that he is ignorant, but... I received a text message during the dinner that the senior sister wanted to see him tonight...
…
After the dinner, Shen Xudong called Teacher Chen and told him a lot about the company's inquiries...
Director Chen felt a little guilty: "I didn't think well about this, just push it to me!"
"...I said the ideal candidate..."
"Who should I choose?"
"Cai Songlin and Huang Zhonglei came to me and asked me what I thought about actors, and I told the truth!"
"...How could you say this? You should discuss it with me..." Director Chen on the other end of the phone was a little angry, and then asked: "Who did you say?"
"Tong Tao, I recommended Liu Dehua or Liang Jiahui, and Zhou Li recommended Gong Li..."
"...Gong Li..." Director Chen was stunned for a moment, and then murmured: "Gong Li is indeed quite suitable...Liu Dehua should forget it!"
"...But Andy Lau is very popular. If he joins this drama, we can raise the cost of 20 million faster!"
"This is not what you have to consider..." After a pause, Director Chen changed the subject: "Do you know about the beating incident the day before yesterday?"
"Hit someone? Who?"
"Didn't you read the newspaper?"
Shen Xudong shook his head, then realized that he was on the phone, and said quickly: "I've been very busy recently, and I don't have time to care about these things... What's wrong?"
"On the crew of "The Two Prodigies", two Hong Kong people beat up Wang Bozhao..."
Oh, Xiaoyuer and Huawuquehaibianbailongma...
Has this happened already?
Director Chen has always disliked Hong Kong and Taiwan artists - in 1991, when the Yangtze River was flooded, actors from both mainland China and Hong Kong attended a disaster relief performance. When eating at a restaurant, a waiter asked a Hong Kong actor for his autograph, but he was refused. And he made a very arrogant statement: he never signed in Chinese. Teacher Chen Daoming asked him on the spot if he was Chinese. Then Chen Daoming led the mainland actors present and left directly, leaving Gong Li alone at the door of the hotel.
As for the Tianlong treatment of Hong Kong and Taiwan actors, Director Chen naturally knows it!
The Beijing circle will definitely not understand it!
When Liu Xiaoqin was filming "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" and "Curtain Behind the Curtain", the female lead in the crew had to sleep on the floor with many extras and eat steamed buns and pickles.
Of course, at that time, Liu Xiaoqin was still an actor under the Bayi Film Studio, and her salary was naturally the same as that of most actors in state-owned studios...
But now, the money is provided by mainland investors. You are making money from the mainland and still beating people. Isn't this wrong?
However, this has nothing to do with Shen Xudong...
He didn't accept the script for "Little Fish and Flowers"...
Therefore, Shen Xudong cautiously asked: "...So, what do you want me to do?"
"We are going to issue a joint statement. Do you want your name to be included in it?"
Shen Xudong said decisively: "Of course..."
"You'd better understand the situation first, don't rush to take sides!"
"No, Teacher Chen, you are my leader in the film and television industry...will you cheat me?"
"...Don't you cooperate with the Emperor? The one who beat me seems to be Xie Tingfeng~"
"As you said, Xie Tingfeng also acted in "The Promise"!"
Director Chen on the other end of the phone was happy: "Okay...then I'll let them write your name, but you'd better find out what happened, lest a reporter asks you and you don't even know!"
…
Zhang Xie's beating incident may be considered a trivial matter in the eyes of the crew...
It must have been approved by the director and director. Look, Xiao Yuer Hua Wuque is so generous. He turned a blind eye to Yao Yue, the initiator of his parents' hatred, but he actually acted to vent his anger on Jiang Biehe by whipping his corpse?
This thing is illogical!
Maybe in the eyes of these Tianlong people, just hit them. What can you do?
At that time, Liu Jialin, Li Lianlian and even Li Zhi were almost flattened and rounded in Hong Kong...
How dare they say even half a word?
After coming to the Mainland, I found that Mainland investors treated the two sides obviously differently. Therefore, in many production crews, Hong Kong and Taiwan actors were also arrogant and domineering in front of Mainland actors, thinking that they were superior to others...
Even if the actor himself does not have such emotions, the attitude of his assistants, managers, etc. is also very alienating...
This group of assistant directors, producers, stage managers, makeup artists and even the nannies they brought from Hong Kong and Taiwan are all very awesome and have a bad temper. It is normal for them to have a lot of demands and have a bad temper. If something goes wrong, they can beat them at will Swearing is nothing new...
"Xiao Yuer and Hua Wuque" is full of Hong Kong big names from behind the scenes to the leading actors!
It's just that this time I played Wang Bozhao for a small role. Not only did he play the role of Little White Dragon in "Journey to the West", but he also collaborated with Ang Lee in the movie "Pushing Hands". He was not an unknown extra or an extra. Something went wrong.
According to his words, 'I have filmed more than 50 movies in the 23 years since my debut, and I have never experienced such humiliation! ’
This thing has nothing to do with Wang Bozhao's character. He acted as a corpse, and the two of them beat people...
I don't believe it if you beat someone to minor injuries if it wasn't intentional!
It has been almost ten years since these two debuted. If you replace Wang Bozhao with Andy Lau, how dare they fight like this?
Moreover, judging from the subsequent court judgment - Zhang and Xie were sentenced for gross negligence!
If the evidence on Wang Bozhao's side is not so strong, it may be mixed up, and the court will not be able to find Zhang Xie guilty of gross negligence...
The most outrageous thing is that the reaction of the crew was chilling. They said that it was just filming and they didn't use any real force. They also teased Wang Bozhao for his "insufficient anti-beating skills" and didn't know how to say anything when he felt hurt.
Wang Jinggen acted out slapping himself in front of the media, slapping him 6 times in a row and saying "it didn't hurt at all".
There is a sense of "I am popular and I am justified, and you deserve to be fooled" in it.
After understanding the whole story, Shen Xudong was ready to search for media reports...
Then Chen Hao came over...
