Chapter 380 Choose One of the Two!
Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhong Mo again, with a little more shock, envy, and even some sense of rightness in their eyes!
The pay in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is not much. For first-line stars like Zhen Zhidan and Louis Koo, the pay for a movie is only about 8 million, and the pay for a second-line star is about 3 or 4 million. For a role like Ah Hu, the pay is estimated to be about 300,000, but Ye Weixin used the pay of a second-line star to invite Zhong Mo, a young man who has never made a movie!
This is definitely not a trivial matter for the Hong Kong entertainment industry!
However, thinking of Zhong Mo's wonderful performance just now, everyone felt that Ye Weixin did the right thing!
Zhong Mo is indeed not very famous now, but with his ability, he will definitely become a second-line star, or even a first-line star in the future, and the movie "Flash Point" is just the first platform for him to take off!
Zhong Mo didn't expect Ye Weixin to be so generous, but he also knew that this was all what he had worked hard for just now.
He shook hands with Ye Weixin immediately, nodded and said with a smile: "Director Ye, it's my honor!"
"Haha..."
Ye Weixin raised his head and laughed happily, "Zhong Mo, with you joining, I believe our movie will be a big hit. As for the contract, I will let my assistant draw it up and give it to you later!"
At first, he really only wanted to pay 200,000 yuan for the film, but after seeing Zhong Mo's skills, the pay increased by more than ten times!
Because in his opinion, Zhong Mo deserves so much pay!
"Thank you Director Ye, but Sister Mimi is my cousin and my boss, so I don't care about the contract!"
Zhong Mo glanced at Yang Mi next to him.
Yang Mi showed a bright smile on her pretty face and nodded gently.
"Young people are not arrogant, they are humble and sensible, which is rare!"
Ye Weixin patted Zhong Mo on the shoulder and praised his behavior very much.
Is there a lack of talented and capable newcomers in the entertainment industry?
No!
Whether in the mainland or Hong Kong, many newcomers debut every year. Even if they are not as good and perverted as Zhong Mo, they still stand out among the newcomers and receive applause. However, most people quickly lose themselves, become arrogant, and look down on others. In the end, they are just a flash in the pan and become lost in the crowd!
A newcomer as good as Zhong Mo signed a contract with Jiali, a second-tier entertainment company, which is really a waste of talent!
If he is willing to change jobs, with his ability, there will definitely be countless entertainment companies scrambling for him!
But he is willing to keep his original heart, which is indeed not simple!
Zhong Mo suddenly thought of something, frowned slightly, and couldn't help asking; "Director Ye, do you know Shi Tianyu?"
"Shi Tianyu?"
Ye Weixin was stunned at first, then patted his shoulder and laughed, "How could I not know him? In fact, he was the one I thought of for the role of Ah Hu at the beginning. I also called to invite him, but Shi Tianyu broke his leg while practicing a few days ago. It will take more than four months to fully recover."
"I have to catch up with the progress of this play, and I can't wait that long, so I can only find someone else. Although this is not nice, I have to say that if it weren't for this, how could I find you?"
At first, he defined Ah Hu as a simple and rough bad guy, but after Zhong Mo's interpretation just now, the character of Ah Hu has become much fuller and more vivid.
If he is asked to choose between Zhong Mo and Shi Tianyu now, he will still choose Zhong Mo!
"So that's it!"
Zhong Mo suddenly realized.
In the previous life, when filming "Fuse", Shi Tianyu did not break his leg, but Lan Xing's appearance completely changed his and his life trajectory.
But I can definitely create a completely different Ah Hu, right?
After Ye Weixin selected Ah Hu, the other roles were finalized!
But compared with Ah Hu, the other roles seemed even more insignificant. It took only more than ten minutes before and after, and the candidates for several roles were finalized.
Because Peng Yuyan performed well just now, and also spoke for Zhong Mo, he finally got a role called Yang Zai.
He is one of Ah Hu's subordinates, with good kung fu, loyal, and many shots!
This made Peng Yuyan ecstatic, and he almost cheered on the spot!
He thought he would definitely lose this time, but he didn't expect to get a role, and he could film with Zhong Mo!
At this moment, Ye Weixin looked at Zhong Mo and smiled: "Zhong Mo, are you free these days?"
"Director Ye, is there anything?"
Zhong Mo looked up at him with a look of astonishment on his face!
"Originally, I thought the role selection was a bit difficult, and it would take at least ten days, so I decided to start filming in half a month. Who knew that the casting was so smooth and it was done in a few hours, so I want to start filming in advance!"
Ye Weixin said what he was thinking.
One day later, it will cost one more day, so the sooner the better!
"This..."
Zhong Mo didn't expect that he would join the crew in advance, and his face suddenly changed.
Not only him, but also Yang Mi, Zhang Yuqi and Reba all changed their faces!
Zhong Mo and Reba will have three days off this time, and they will be broadcasting the second round of "Celebrity Professional Challenge". How can they have time to film?
They came to Hong Kong just for an interview this time, and they didn't plan to join the crew at all!
Is this opportunity going to be missed?
Zhong Mo may quit the second round of "Star Career Challenge" and focus on filming, but his reputation will be greatly affected!
After all, it was because of participating in the "Star Career Challenge" that he had the opportunity to gain such a great reputation and prestige. If he gave up halfway and climbed another branch, what would those people outside think? What would those haters think?
Although Zhong Mo has gained a lot of prestige and fame now, he rose too fast, and his fans are not stable and can be easily shaken!
If those haters take the opportunity to fan the flames and make rumors, it will be easy for Zhong Mo to collapse!
"What? Do you have anything else?"
Ye Weixin frowned and asked.
"Director Ye, that, I do have something to do!"
Zhong Mo smiled bitterly and could only briefly explain the reason.
"I see. So what are you going to do? Continue to participate in variety shows or film?"
Ye Weixin's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said word by word, "Even if you are still filming that variety show half a month later, I have already started filming here. I think you know how important the role of Ah Hu is. You can't have so many people waiting for you alone, right? So you must make a choice now!"
"Director Ye, I'm really sorry, I choose "Celebrity Professional Challenge"!"
Zhong Mo thought about it and said apologetically.
