When the crew contacted Liu Tao, he agreed at first. However, when he heard that Wu Zijie was directing and acting, he refused!
It was probably because he despised Wu Zijie's terrible box office performance!
Now, there was only one person left, Tang Yan from 1983!
But looking at Tang Yan's photo, she had a sweet smile and had played many silly and sweet roles (Mi Duo in Carat Lovers). She was not suitable to play a female officer in the special forces!
However, Wu Zijie had watched a few movies that Tang Yan had acted in, such as " The Bounty Hunter " and " Europe Raiders ". She was a long-legged lady in all of them, and the fighting scenes were smooth and natural!
At that time, Tang Yan was really valiant and beautiful. A mature sister was the right way for her to open up!
Long Xiaoyun had the image of an older sister!
Therefore, Wu Zijie felt that letting Tang Yan play Long Xiaoyun was the most suitable choice!
Wu Zijie called Tang Yan personally."Sister Tang Tang, this movie is completely different from the martial arts movies I've filmed in the past…"
Tang Yan interrupted Wu Zijie and said lightly,"Zijie, I'm sorry. This movie of yours is really good, but my schedule is full.”
After hanging up Wu Zijie's call, Tang Yan called Liu Yifei and said proudly,""Jason even wanted to ask me to act in his movie, but I rejected him immediately. Who asked him to make my best friend cry!”
It turned out that a few days ago, Liu Yifei had taken the initiative to call Wu Zijie to express her goodwill and asked if there was anything she could do to help him. Wu Zijie had scolded her and she had come crying to Tang Yan for comfort.
At that time, Liu Yifei did not make things clear. Tang Yan thought that Liu Yifei and Wu Zijie divorced because Wu Zijie had let Liu Yifei down and was a scumbag, so she rejected Wu Zijie without hesitation!
On the other end of the phone, Liu Yifei quickly asked,""What's going on? What movie did he invite you to act in? What role did you play? Why did you reject him?”
Tang Yan told him the whole story.
Liu Yifei smiled bitterly." Tangtang, you've misunderstood him. He's not the one who's wronged me. I'm the one who's wronged him…"
"What?" "You let him down?" Tang Yan was shocked. You cheated on him?"
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Liu Yifei spat." He's my first love, the only man in my life. I've never let him down. His career is in such a big crisis, and I still want to stand side by side with him. But my mother looked down on him and forced me to divorce him. She threatened me with death. I really had no choice…"
"So that's what happened!" Of course, Tang Yan was still on Liu Yifei's side.""Your mother isn't wrong either. He's indeed in a slump now. He's indeed not worthy of you!”
" Tangtang, can you help him?" Liu Yifei said seriously." He needs your help now!"
Besides, the theme, plot, and character of the movie you're talking about are different from the martial arts movies he's acted in before. Perhaps the box office earnings won't be as bad as the previous two martial arts movies…"
Tang Yan smiled bitterly."Qianqian (Liu Yifei's nickname), you have to get this straight. You're getting a divorce with him now. There's nothing between you and him anymore. Is there still a need to help him?"”
" After all, we used to be husband and wife," Liu Yifei said faintly." I don't want to see him like this forever, so I'll help him one last time…"
Wu Zijie thought that Tang Yan had rejected him, so he had to contact other actresses, such as Wan Qian, who had played a soldier before.
In the end, she was ridiculed and despised by her management team. They were not willing to work with Wu Zijie at all!
Wu Zijie's last Kungfu movie was a huge failure at the box office, and he was afraid of being dragged down by it!
After being rejected by five female celebrities 'management teams, Cheng Xiaoxiao, the assistant who was in charge of communicating on the phone, pouted and muttered.
"Brother Jie, these female celebrities are all blind. Why don't I play Long Xiaoyun?”
Wu Zijie patted her little head dotingly."You're too young!"
Cheng Xiaoxiao raised her head. I'm not young!"
Wu Zijie almost choked on his own saliva."Silly girl, you really are brainless. I'm talking about age, age, and years of experience!”
Just as Wu Zijie was about to go through the auditions to find the female lead, Tang Yan called and asked him to come to her house to discuss the collaboration.
Wu Zijie was overjoyed. After watching Bounty Hunter and Europe Strategy Guide, she had always felt that Tang Yan was very suitable for the role of a mature sister!
Wu Zijie and Liu Yifei had visited Tang Yan's house before and knew where she lived.
Tang Yan didn't live in a villa, but a high-end hotel-style apartment.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Tang Yan and Wu Zijie met at her house.
It turned out that when Tang Yan looked at Wu Zijie, because he was her best friend's husband, she treated him as a good friend and did not think much of him.
Now that she looked at Wu Zijie again, she thought to herself that this man was not going to be her best friend's husband. She suddenly felt that Wu Zijie was really handsome. It was really a pity that he was outdated just like that!
Wu Zijie sized up Tang Yan. Tang Yan's black and beautiful hair hung down like a waterfall. She had a smooth forehead, curved eyebrows, eyes that looked like crescent moons when she smiled, a sharp nose, and a small cherry mouth. Her smile was very sweet, and when she was cold, she looked like a mature sister!
The most special thing was Tang Tang's figure. She was 1.71 meters tall and had long and straight legs. When she kicked someone, the curve of her legs was especially beautiful. It was indeed suitable for slapping scenes!
If he changed into a military uniform, looked a little more serious, and adjusted it properly, he would indeed be more suitable for the role of Long Xiaoyun than other popular starlets.
