Chapter 262 It Doesn’t Need to Be so Grand, Right? (14)
Shen Xudong was unprepared...
Don’t you need to film anymore?
Still want to watch the sketch?
"Myth" is your turnaround!
In 2005, in the box office list, "The Promise", "Myth", and "Seven Swords" ranked among the top three...
97 million box office…
Are you so anxious?
However, Shen Xudong could not refuse - the Chinese Opera Sketch Competition itself welcomes seniors in the entertainment industry...
Give the students a stage to show off!
For example, Wei Zi is Yue Buqun in "The Swordsman". With his superb professional skills, he stood out in the first sketch competition of China National Opera, so he became an instant hit in China National Opera, and later signed a contract with Renyi;
The sketch competition itself requires leaders from major theaters to come and watch. Of course Jackie Chan and Tony Leung can come!
Moreover, it can also increase the popularity of the competition.
However, Liang Jiahui said, ‘We are just here as your friends to see how the sketch goes, and we must not promote it in a big way! ’
"…understood…"
Then I have to find someone to take care of me!
Who should I look for?
Shen Xudong thought for a moment and dialed Deng Jie's phone: "Auntie... I have something to tell you."
"Just tell me!"
Shen Xudong told the story about Jackie Chan and Liang Jiahui going to the China Theater to watch the "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" skit, and added: "Uncle Liang said I was not allowed to speak out, so they came to watch one and then went back to continue filming, but I I think we should still host it...but I don’t have time...So, I would like to ask you and Uncle Zhang to help with the reception..."
Deng Jie on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment...
I have a lot to ask...
Jackie Chan?
"Glory of the Tang Dynasty"?
How did you get involved with him?
But she held back and agreed directly: "Okay, I will go find you tomorrow..."
"...Okay, please, Aunt Deng..."
"It's a small thing... If you can think of aunt and uncle to help you with this, it means you regard us as your own..."
Deng Jie rambled for almost ten minutes before hanging up the phone...
Yan Danchen finished his recollection and lay on top of him: "Who did you call again?"
"...Liang Jiahui brought Jackie Chan to watch the sketch competition... He asked me to keep quiet. I thought I had to find someone to receive me, so I called Deng Jie..."
Yan Danchen swallowed, and then asked: "... Sketch contest? What script did you write, and why are they all here?"
"It's a war and military theme..."
Shen Xudong did not reveal the script of "Glory of the Tang Dynasty", but only said: "The sketch is an excerpt from the script..."
"Did they like the script?"
"…probably…"
After saying this, Shen Xudong patted her: "I have to go back and urge them to rehearse again... It would be embarrassing if the inscription gets stuck!"
"...You didn't tell them that Jackie Chan would come to see you?"
"Is it necessary to say this?"
"Let's talk about it so that they can be mentally prepared!"
Shen Xudong thought about it and realized that this was true, so he nodded: "Okay, then I'll tell them..."
"Leave now?"
Shen Xudong looked at her...
Thinking about it again, it seems that what I just dug was a little too shallow...
Suddenly I felt that it would be too late to rehearse tomorrow, so I picked her up...
…
Deng Jie received the call, thought about it, and called Zhang Guoli. Zhang Guoli was filming "Song Liansheng Sitting in the Hall".
The one with the heroine Zhang Ting...
Do you feel like working together on "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan Part 3" is not enough?
However, Zhang Guoli has really worked hard in the past two years. Six dramas have been released this year. Although two of them are supporting roles, the four leading roles are still quite powerful...
This year is even more outrageous. "Young Prince Bao", "Song Liansheng Sitting in the Hall", "Dragon and Phoenix" and "Young Jiaqing" were all directed and acted by him!
Among them, "Dragon is not a Dragon or a Phoenix is not a Phoenix" and "Young Jiaqing" are for raising sons!
Back to work, Zhang Guoli thought for a moment and then called Feng Xiaogang after receiving a call from Deng Jie...
The two discussed it for a while and decided to go together...
After all, Jackie Chan is an international superstar, so he has to have enough cards!
They both set out, it's almost...
However, Feng Xiaogang suggested that Huang Zhongjun also go, but Zhang Guoli directly rejected him - you are not Huayi's contracted director, why do you think about Huayi in everything?
After the discussion ended and he hung up the phone, Zhang Guoli looked at the time. It was almost 11 p.m., thought about it, and then called Shen Xudong.
…
When he received a call from Zhang Guoli, Shen Xudong left the room and was about to drive back to school.
Oh, he was chatting with Yan Danchen, mainly about their class...
Nortel’s Grade 96 Performance Department!
The three swordsmen Zhao Yanzi, Chen Kun, and Huang Xiaoming take the lead. In addition, Guo Xiaodong, Zu Feng, He Lin, Zhang Heng...
This group of people has been active in the entertainment industry.
Generally speaking, it is very difficult for an acting class to produce one or two famous actors. Nortel's 96th grade and China National Theater's 96th grade echo each other from afar!
Of course there must be differences in strength...
"Hey, I'll go to your sketch contest too!"
Shen Xudong was speechless: "This is our competition, what are you from Nortel doing here?"
"Then what are you doing outside? They are all engaged in art!"
Shen Xudong simply told the truth: "...even if we find a heroine in "Glory of the Tang Dynasty", she will have to be at the level of four-dan double ice..."
"What are you talking about? I'm just interested in the skit you mentioned... If you don't want to go, I won't go!"
Yan Danchen turned around angrily, with his back to Shen Xudong...
The latter simply stood up, he was ready to leave - he didn't have time to coax others, he was busy!
Besides, in terms of artistic communication, who has time to care about your emotions?
Yan Danchen heard the sound of him getting dressed and quickly turned his head: "...you want to leave?"
"Well, I have to go back to the dormitory..."
"It's almost 11 o'clock, can you get into the dormitory?"
"no problem!"
Shen Xudong waved his hand: "You have a good night's rest. Xu Zheng is expected to come over tomorrow. The director wants to try him... You can go and see..."
"Okay, then slow down, I won't send you off..."
"…Good night…"
Shen Xudong had already walked to the door, put on his shoes, opened the door, and waved to her...
Then the phone rang.
"Hey, Uncle Guoli..."
"Aren't you filming? I didn't dare to disturb you..."
Zhang Guoli laughed: "If you think of asking your Uncle Guoli for this kind of thing, it's to give me face... Well, tomorrow I'll call you Uncle Feng, and then I'll call you Uncle Ge..."
"It doesn't have to be so grand, right?"
"You listen to me on this matter. He stopped filming and came over to watch the sketch. We have to show sincerity..."
Shen Xudong didn't understand very well: "Why?"
"Cooperation... cooperation requires sincerity!"
Is it a shame to cooperate?
"Glory of the Tang Dynasty" only requires tens of millions of production funds. If you add Jackie Chan's remuneration, it will be impossible to make it without 150 million!
Jackie Chan’s appeal in the past two years...
A slight decline.
Of course, it is impossible to lose money. The North American DVD and TV rights of "New Police Story" are enough to make up for the loss...
I heard that "Myth" went to Cannes and the copyright sales reached 150 million!
Let’s put it this way, most of Jackie Chan’s movies in recent years have been financed by himself, or with the cooperation of Emperor and China Film...
Are you investing in his movies?
Why are you?
But it’s impossible for Shen Xudong to say this, he’s not an idiot…
He just nodded and agreed obediently.
