It was a short opening audition.
Wang Jingjue had made the right choice in choosing Jiangbei!
It was no exaggeration to say that Jiang Bei's acting skills had brought him back to the old days of Hong Kong.
"This acting…Awesome."
Wang Jing said emotionally.
On the monitor, Jiang Bei's little action of rubbing his face was full of acting.
In reality.
He was shocked when he saw the Dragon Head Staff in Jiangbei. He didn't expect to see Lame Hao again after so many years.
In addition, Jiang Bei's acting skills were natural and did not feel out of place. The sense of age was bursting, and there was nothing to be picky about.
"Director Jing, how is it?”
"How is it? Satisfied, he couldn't be more satisfied! I've always believed in you and Fage."
The two of them joked.
"Then why did you agree to Xiao Bei's zero pay? He doesn't understand, but you don't? I don't care. You have to pay us.”
Sister Jialing tried her best to fight for benefits for Jiangbei.
She really thought highly of Jiang Bei!
Wang Jing was troubled." Although it's zero pay, it's a condition. 5%-10% bonus. This is the treatment of bringing money into the crew.”
No matter what, Jiang Bei was still a small actor.
Up until now, he had only filmed a movie, Let the Bullets Fly, which had yet to be released.
The reason why Wang Jing agreed was because of the lack of funds!
Liu Jialing understood. Can this movie's box office earnings break one billion?"
A good director.
From the first scene of the movie, one could know the approximate box office earnings.
Why?
If half of the investment for a movie was spent on the actors 'salaries, then it would definitely be a bad movie.
This was because those with real acting skills would not ask for too much. Only the management company of a young hunk would do so.
In order to increase the popularity of the movie, they would ask for an exorbitant price.
But Chasing the Dragon was not.
If Wang Jing wanted to, he could find more expensive actors. However, he wanted to film something different for this movie.
The two historical figures, Lame Hero and Lei Luo, could not be controlled by people without acting skills!
This was also why Old Moe had not even filmed a third of the Great Wall.
Wang Jing was certain that this film would definitely lose money! (True story)
In the industry, this was called 'estimation'.
Wang Jing had been filming commercial films for so many years, so she knew better than anyone.
"If Jiang Bei hadn't joined the crew, I wouldn't dare to say anything. Now that there's Hua Zai and him, I think this movie will definitely do well at the box office. If he had to estimate it…I think 1.5 billion is possible."
Liu Jialing's eyes widened. How much? 1.5 billion! Are you still asleep?"
"You believe me."
"Really? If it was 1.5 billion and 10% of the box office earnings, would Xiao Bei have…90 million at the box office!"
Liu Jialing found it unbelievable!
Wang Jing took a sip of coffee.
Jiang Bei walked over. The weather in Xiangjiang was too hot, so the stage supervisor politely handed him a glass of ice water.
"Director Crystal, how is it?"
"Very good, Mr. Jiang. Let's pack up and start shooting the second scene to catch up. You may have to rest for about a week tomorrow. Hua Zai's scenes are also very heavy. At present, there are two lines that are working together. After the Walled City of Nine Dragons, your scenes with Hua Zai will be the most important.”
Jiang Bei wiped his sweat and smiled." No problem. I'll listen to you, Director Jing."”
The second scene was a group fight between Fatty Chao and the grizzly bear. It was a big scene.
In the film and television base in the Walled City of Nine Dragons.
There were at least 200 people on both sides. There was no scene in Jiangbei in this scene.
The two actors were also familiar faces from Hong Kong movies. Because there were too many people, the crystal director used drones to start from the ground mirror and the sky mirror.
They took pictures back and forth many times.
Logically speaking, it was very difficult to shoot. Wang Jing was not satisfied with many scenes.
There were too many people, and it tested the director's ability to control the theater.
It lasted until nine o'clock in the evening, six hours, before he was satisfied with the scene.
During this period.
There was also a bloody incident. The fights in the movies were basically fake moves. He did not expect an extra to be so ruthless. However, these things were handed over to the stage supervisor to handle.
Sister Jialing left first. For dinner, He Han ordered a table of special dishes. This was specially instructed by Wang Jing.
"Mr. Jiang, thank you for your hard work. You're so dedicated to your work. It's your first time in Xiangjiang.”
Jiang Bei looked at the pile of delicacies on the table.
"What a waste. Tell Director Crystal not to do this again.”
Egg, doll noodles, snake soup, wonton, bowl of chicken wings...
"It's okay. If you don't eat, Director Jing will scold you…"
Poor Manager He…
After the scene was over, Wang Jing took a few bites and looked at Jiang Bei apologetically.""Mr. Jiang, let's begin."
The third scene was Wu Shihao leading his brothers in a group fight. Each of them was 20 yuan.
During this period.
He hit Hunter too hard and beat him up.
Night scenes tested the actors, and it was a fight scene.
Carrying a machete in his hand, Jiang Bei ran wildly through the alleyway of the film and television base. The crystal director followed him on a trolley.
"Damn it, there's no way out!"
"Brother Hao, what should we do? The police are chasing after us!"
Jiang Bei rested his hands on his knees, sweating profusely. He turned around and saw that the gang had scattered because of the police.
At this moment, the police were chasing them.
"Run!"
The brothers got into the double-decker bus, and the big brother, who was carrying the camera, ran all the way.
It had to be said that the cameraman was really physically strong.
On the bus.
Realizing that there was nowhere to hide, Jiang Bei pulled a long face and kicked Hunter in the face. It was a real kick!
In order to be realistic, the two of them fought for real!
Jiang Bei had bruises all over his body and back.
However... The foreigner who tested Hunter was not much better. His face was swollen.
Logically speaking, Leroy, who was played by Hua Zai, should have rushed over at this time. However, he was not here, so this scene could only be re-shot after Hua Zai arrived.
"Crack!"
The third scene ended.
The stage supervisor and He Han rushed over and pulled Jiang Bei up.
"Mr. Jiang, are you alright?"
Jiang Bei's arm was scraped and bleeding profusely.""Hiss…It's fine, it's fine. Let's go and see that foreigner.”
He turned his head.
The foreigner was lying on the ground, moaning.
Wang Jing asked Manager He to send Huang Daoyi over and smear it.
"Mr. Jiang, you're really too hardworking! You're too dedicated. It's the first day I got off the plane, and I let you rush over to film.”
"Don't worry about me, Director Jing." Jiang Bei waved his hand.”
It was already ten o'clock at night.
"He Han, send Teacher Jiang back to the hotel.”
Jiang Bei wanted to refuse, but he realized that the film set was still some distance away from the city center.
The crew had booked a hotel for him in Nine Dragon Bay, which was an hour's drive away, so he did not refuse.
Wang Jing was very dedicated to filming.
Once filming started, they basically had to eat and live on set.
"Mr. Jiang, go back to the hotel and rest first. In the next two days, we will shoot some extra scenes. It is estimated that it will take three to four days. I also have to improve the script because Mr. Jiang's image is too outstanding.”
He said goodbye to Wang Jing.
At the entrance of the film and television base in the Walled City, there was an imported Bentley Continental with the right steering wheel.
He Han poked his face out of the driver's seat." Mr. Jiang, I'll have to trouble you first. The production team's nanny van will be undergoing maintenance in the next two days. You can take Director Jing's car first."”
Bentley Continental!
Wang Jing was also a car lover. She had made a lot of money from filming over the years. There were many antique cars in the garage of Taiping Mountain.
This Continental had instead become a means of transportation.
Tsk... There were plenty of people in the entertainment industry who were willing to spend four million dollars on a luxury car. It was too easy to make money.
Jiang Bei sat in the front passenger seat. He Han drove steadily, and the thug in a suit drove steadily on the highway.
"Mr. Jiang, Director Jing seems to like you a lot. He has a lot of connections in the industry and entered the industry early. He was in the same batch of students as Brother Fa, Sister Jialing, and Uncle Dahua, but he chose to make movies.”
This was mainly because Wang Jing's father was a screenwriter. He had been a producer, an actor, and a director.
In terms of seniority, Father Wang had even made Xie Xian, Huang Rihua, and a large number of other old Hong Kong people famous.
"That's why Director Crystal usually doesn't give face to celebrities. Young hunks are just tools under him.”
"But today, you really made me look at you in a new light.”
The two chatted along the way.
Jiang Bei also learned a lot about Wang Jing.
