He returned to the capital on the 7th.
Jiang Bei's head had been aching ever since the plane landed and they exited the airport.
Last night, he drank too much with Brother Bo and Brother Jing. If Qiao Xinyue hadn't come to pick her up, he wouldn't have left.
Inside the Daimler van.
Qiao Xinyue handed Jiang Bei a cup of honey water and took out a fax from Zhong Huang from the file.
"Currently, there are a total of seven movie offers, three variety shows, and one talk show.”
"I think these seven movies are not bad.”
"The first movie is 'Infernal Affairs 2', directed by Liu Weiqiang. The production and hairstyle are both from Media Asia. The investor is our Zhonghuang. The director took a fancy to you at first glance and wants you to audition for Liu Jianming. Wait for the camera to turn on."
"The second film is Director Guan Hu's '800'. It's a war film. The director is looking for investors, but when it comes to casting, he immediately took a liking to you. The script is approved, the actors are auditioning, the investors are entering, and so on. It will take at least three months before filming starts.”
" The third film is a big international IP,'Fast and Furious 7'. Currently, six episodes have been filmed for this movie. Universal Pictures intends to stir up a wave of emotions, but they don't want to give up on such a big market like China. Coincidentally, you're currently in the limelight in China. They've evaluated your influence in the country and want you to star in Super 7. The exact role is still pending. Personally, I'm very inclined to this movie. This movie is the key to opening the Oscars for us, and it's also the bridge for you to enter the international market. Although it was a pure popcorn movie, it was very popular overseas and had a certain influence in China. It had a lot of fans.”
" The fourth movie is an invitation from the Korean nation. The Chinese Emperor has always been in close contact with the Korean film company. It's just that the boss is bent on nurturing a movie maker. As for the trainee culture, uh... I can't say that I like it, but it's good enough that I don't hate it. However, this country's movies have always been known for their courage and boldness. CJ Entertainment Co., Ltd. from Korea has contacted us and is interested in letting you star in a new movie," Save Me from Evil." Currently, the boss's attitude is that it's up to you. If you want to film it, okay, no problem. We'll try to get in touch with them. If you don't want to…Uh-huh, tell him to scram."
"The fifth film is an independent film,'The Clown.' This script is currently under copyright dispute, and I don't really like an R-rated film that is scheduled to be released in America.”
Jiang Bei remained silent and listened attentively until the name of 'The Clown' was announced. Suddenly, a hint of fanaticism appeared in his eyes.
Qiao Xinyue noticed the strange look in Jiang Bei's eyes.
"But it doesn't matter.'The Clown' still has a long way to go before filming starts. At the very least, Warner has to resolve the copyright issue.”
"The sixth movie,'New Police Story'. This movie is the first company that Chen Long and the boss have started. It's also the first project that has been approved. To be honest, the boss doesn't think much of it because many police story prequels have been filmed before this. The current situation is that the screenwriter, director, and investors are all in place. If there is, it can be described in one word: Shoot!"
" The seventh movie,'A True Man's Colors,' is directed by Chen Musheng. He spent three years polishing the script for this movie. It's a classic Hong Kong film that involves explosions, action, and undercover agents. However, it's very difficult to choose the actors. The four main actors have to be between 22 and 28 years old. Xie Tingfeng has already confirmed that he'll be participating, but it's still not enough. Coincidentally,'Let the Bullets Fly' will be released at this time. Chen Musheng found the boss and hopes that you can act in it. State your conditions and choose the role.”
Jiang Bei was deep in thought.
Yang Shoucheng had really taken a liking to him. He had carefully selected all seven movies, and coincidentally, Jiang Bei had watched all of them!
All of them were exquisite!
Currently, the movie that was unrivaled in both reputation and box office sales was naturally Infernal Affairs 2. This movie, to be precise, was the pinnacle of Huayu's film series.
In his previous life, the Korean remake of New World had won two Green Dragon Best Actor awards in one go!
One could imagine how awesome it was.
" Eight Hundred " was not bad either. This movie was heroic and Jiang Bei's temperament changed slightly, which perfectly matched the theme of the movie.
As for the Fast and Furious 7 and The Clown, Jiang Bei was very interested in them. However, his fame was only limited to the domestic market and needed to be consolidated.
'New Police Story' and 'Men's Colors' were equally good. The characters in both movies matched Jiang Bei's temperament.
"In addition, this is a price list. Everything is negotiable.”
Qiao Xinyue took out a printed and faxed copy from Zhonghuang. The prices of the seven films were marked on it.

Among them, except for The Clown and Fast and Furious 7, which were marked in red, the rest were all bold.
As for Infernal Affairs 2 and Eight Hundred, Qiao Xinyue had given them 'Excellent ' ratings.
"Personally, I'm leaning towards Infernal Affairs 2 and Eight Hundred, because these two movies are too compatible with your temperament. Bro Bei, although Let the Bullets Fly made you popular, and there's still Chasing the Dragon to follow, I think we should first take a stable and solid path, and play the style of the movies to the extreme before choosing other subjects.”
"Although I think The Clown and The Fast and Furious 7 are not bad either, it's very easy for them to suffer a backlash if they rashly enter the international market.”Qiao Xinyue expressed her opinion and shook her head." Besides, foreign countries advocate extreme culture chauvinism, which means movies with strong personal colors.”
This was also the reason why American blockbusters with individual heroes were so popular in the mainstream foreign markets.
Of course, it was also very popular in the country.
However, the domestic audience was more tolerant.
"Why did you mark 'Good' on 'Save Me from Evil?”Jiang Bei asked.
She suddenly realized that it was great to have a manager. There were many things that she did not need to worry about. She would arrange everything clearly. Everything would be done according to the rules and without any loopholes. She would analyze the movie from all angles and the future development plans of the artists.
Otherwise, if Jiang Bei didn't have a movie to film and chose a movie that wasn't suitable for him, it would not only affect his career, but it would also not be good for his abilities.
Even worse, his image would plummet.
Therefore, Qiao Xinyue's manager was perfect.
" I've watched this movie. My postgraduate course is 'The History of World Film Development and Different Concepts of Watching Movies in Regional Culture'. The story of' Save Me from Evil 'is monotonous and boring. Basically, all the elements have been filmed repeatedly by other directors. The qiguan business, the former secret agent, the murdered girlfriend, and the ultimate psycho killer. None of these characters have been through a lot of training. It's a pure B-rated movie that kills without any reason.”
"Compared to the current popular tastes of the audience, it's a far cry.”
Jiang Bei nodded. His analysis was on point. Jiang Bei had watched the movie before. The whole movie was awesome. There was no content at all. The story was not outstanding. It was only realistic. The selling point was probably the climax of the punch.
"Besides, we have a natural aversion to the Korean nation. I'm afraid it will affect your image on the screen.”
Not bad.
" As for 'Infernal Affairs 2' and 'Eight Hundred,' any role you play will solidify your image on the screen. If you have the acting skills, you'll be able to play whatever role you want. Most importantly, Infernal Affairs has a very high status in the hearts of the domestic movie fans. Ever since the filming of the first episode ended, the netizens have been clamoring to watch the second episode. Currently, the script has been polished and we're just waiting for the actors to be in place.”
"Once you star in 'Infernal Affairs 2', your image on screen will be directly linked to that of a divine work. I don't dare to say that you're a god, but at the very least, no one will be able to surpass you in the next few years!”
Jiang Bei nodded.
Except for the three foreign movies.
The remaining four Chinese-language films were all worthy of praise. There was room for negotiation for their salaries, and the directors were the best among the five generations of directors.
Choosing a movie was also a technical job.
Jiang Bei didn't have much desire for money now. What he wanted was fame!
If you're famous, why are you afraid of not earning money?
After some thought, Jiang Bei decided to contact the production team of " Infernal Affairs 2 " and Director Guan Hu of " Eight Hundred ".
He had to ensure that a well-known film would be released every two to three months. Only then could he maintain his image on the screen and not disappear from the public's sight.
A good meal naturally had to be eaten while it was hot!
"Alright, I don't think there's a problem. Help me contact Director Liu Weiqiang and Guan Hu to arrange for the filming period. Isn't 'Eight Hundred' still in the project approval state? He wanted to reassure Director Guan Hu that Jiang Bei was willing to act in the movie!”
"Okay, I love you!" Qiao Xinyue said happily.
Jiang Bei was speechless.
Was a 29-year-old woman so cute?
" As for the reason why I chose 'Eight Hundred,' it's easy to explain. This kind of war themed movie is not bad. Even if the script isn't outstanding, I'll try my best to get in touch with it. It's not for anything else, but to sort out the correct view of history is one of the compulsory courses for artists.”
Tsk tsk…Look at his mindset.
Qiao Xinyue looked at Jiang Bei in a new light.
"In addition, other than the seven movies, we also have three variety shows and one talk show.”
"I think one of them is not bad.”
"'Actors, please take your places.' This is an online variety show. Four well-known directors have been selected to participate in the competition. The director will comment on the acting skills. At the same time, there will be a checkpoint set up to accept the high standard assessment from the director and the audience. It is a stage for competing in acting skills.”
"It's just that…Online variety shows are more limited. Sometimes, in order to create a gimmick, they will invite some young hunks who don't have acting skills. I'm afraid that if you put them together with you, it will be a little demeaning.”
How could it be lower?
It was simply an insult.
However, he could still slap his face.
"Who are the judges?"
"Chen Kaige, Guo Xiaosi, Er Dongsheng, and Zhao Wei.”
Without thinking, Jiang Bei blurted out,"“Pass。”
Qiao Xinyue nodded." I don't want you to participate either. Although they offered a salary of 28 million per season, it's better to forget about this kind of money. Not to mention lowering our status, it's easy to create a negative fishing wheel. If we win, they will say that we're bullying the weak. If we lose, it's even more impossible.”
What a joke, anyone could become a director now?
Guo Xiaosi…
A businessman who relied on plagiarism to get to his position, bragged shamelessly about making a movie, and ended up with a tragic ending, was also called a director?!
This was no longer an insult, but bad luck!
"I think you should consider the second variety show. It's 'This Is The Actor', by Mother Yang Department!”
"We've already filmed the second season. Ever since the first season was broadcast, it's been extremely popular. The core format is the same as 'Actors, Please Take Your Places.' The difference is that all the participants in this variety show are veteran actors.”
"The whole process was dry. There was no opening speech or host.”
"The five directors for the first season are Zhang Yimou, Feng Gang, Wu Yusen, Director Li An, and Director Xu Ke.”
"And according to the director's seat for the second season's variety show, the number of directors has increased from 5 to 7! Among them, Wang Jiawei and Xing Ye were the ones who joined the team!”
Jiang Bei's eyes widened!
Hiss...
As expected, when Mother Yang made her move, big shots gathered!
Not to mention the national teacher Zhang Yimou from the first season, he already represented the top level of Chinese movies.
Now, Wang Jiawei and Xing Ye were joining the second season. This was a f * cking fight between gods!
Beijing, Hong Kong, and the Northwest. This was the rhythm of competition.
Jiang Bei suddenly found it interesting…
"And the actors who will be participating in the show are also young and capable Chinese actors: Chen Kun, Sun Li, Zhou Xun, Zhang Yishan, Wang Kai, Brother Hu, Jiang Shuying, Lei Jiayin, Zhu Yawen…"
This was…
Interesting, very interesting!
These actors were the future mainstays of the veteran actors. It should be very interesting to compete with them on the same stage!
" The highlight of the second season is that not only are all the actors from the previous season in place, but there are also Xiangjiang movie stars, Wu Zhenyu, Xie Tingfeng, Liang Chaowei, and…" Qiao Xinyue glanced at Jiang Bei, who was obviously tempted." And the Thousand-faced Best Actor, Liang Jiahui!”
Awesome!
Mighty!
Mother Yang's face was really big!
"I've decided to participate in this variety show!”
As a person, one must have the heart to win or lose. Otherwise, what was the difference between him and a salted fish? That's right.
"Boss Jiang, you're tempted. Hehe, I'll help you get in touch with the program team of 'This Is The Actor'. This program will be broadcast live throughout the entire show, which means that there's no need for rehearsals or recording. There's still four to six months until the second season's screening, which is at the beginning of next year. I've calculated the time, and you can shoot at least three shows in between. The program team of' This Is The Actor'will also need to create hype, so I think…It should be very exciting."
For some reason, Jiang Bei suddenly felt a little excited.
"What about the other variety show?"
Qiao Xinyue lowered her head and flipped through the documents." There's also a dubbing variety show called 'The Sound of the World'. The lineup is also very strong. The dubbing actors are all veteran actors. Teacher Xue Jian, Teacher Dao Ming, and the crosstalk masters Guo Digang and Grandpa Qian.”
"But... This variety show will premiere around Christmas, and it will be released at the same time as Chasing the Dragon. I think you should have at least two or three shows on you at this time. You will be very busy.”
Indeed.
This show was not bad either.
What was important was the actor's lines and tone. With the veteran actor's endorsement, the effect of the show should not be bad.
Unfortunately, the timing was right.
" No," Jiang Bei shook his head." There's no other way."”
With Jiang Bei's current strength, it was best to focus on filming. What kind of actor was he if he didn't have any work to rely on?
Just two movies, Let the Bullets Fly and Chasing the Dragon, were not enough to support Jiang Bei's ambitions.
Participating in variety shows also depended on one's ability.
He didn't want to become a joke on the internet.
" The last show is the Laughing Fruit Culture's talk show,'Dissing Conclave'. They want you to participate in it and accept the dissing…"
Qiao Xinyue said helplessly.
So our artiste has a lot of bad points?？？
Are we tainted artists?
" It's not the time yet," Jiang Bei said with a smile." Besides, I don't have anything bad about me, do I?"”
She wasn't a celebrity who was acting like a big shot and had conflicts.
"Actually, they just want to ride on the popularity. Recently, your popularity has skyrocketed, and everyone wants a piece of the pie. They offered a price of 6 million yuan. In the future, I'll reject such brainless variety shows for you.”
Qiao Xinyue stuck out her tongue apologetically.
Jiang Bei shook his head and said seriously.
" It's not that I can't do it. A celebrity who can go on a lambasting event is at least very open-minded. Sometimes, it's also a kind of magnanimity to be able to bring out their own scandals and ridicule them. I don't know about other celebrities, but to me, this variety show will let more people know about the different Jiang Bei.”
That's right.
Ask Qiao Yu if he dares to go to the "Roast Convention"?
He was scolding him for being unable to take care of himself every minute. Yes, the program's effect was there. He also left at night. The banquet began ~
Qiao Xinyue thought about it and agreed.
"Then I'll help you contact Smiling Fruit Culture?”
"Is there enough time?"
"I'm afraid not." She counted the time on her fingers." We're at the same time again. It's not enough for the Laughing Fruit Culture. As long as Mr. Jiang has time, they can wait for any episode.”
Good heavens, you must ride on Father's popularity…Haha.
After everything was arranged, Jiang Bei couldn't help but sigh. This was the benefit of signing a contract with a management company. There were endless movies, endless money, and endless variety shows.
Anyway, he couldn't die even if he wanted to.
At the very least, he wouldn't have to worry about having nothing to do until February or March next year.
"Also, how are the box office earnings for 'Let the Bullets Fly' going?”
When it came to box office sales, Qiao Xinyue was overjoyed.
"Congratulations! Hehe, currently, the screening rate of the eight major cinemas was 70%, and the attendance rate was 98%. According to the real-time statistics of Cat Eye…Let the Bullets Fly's box office earnings had already broken through the guaranteed 1.5 billion!!! This result had already broken the fastest box office record for a Chinese film.”
"Director Jiang's team is currently negotiating with China Film to see if they can delay the release by two months.”
Hiss... Awesome!
It broke through 1.5 billion in seven days! What kind of concept was that? Terrifying…
"Based on the 2% box office bonus, you should have at least 10 million yuan in your account.”
That's a lot. Why do I need a bicycle?
This was his first movie, so he should thank the heavens if he didn't lose anything. It was his ancestors 'merit to be able to make a profit!
"But... The seven-day holiday was over. Even the high-traffic areas had to be prepared for a decline. Currently, the box office growth curve of " Let the Bullets Fly " had been rising all the way. After the 7th, it might fall back, but it was not much different from the expected box office of more than 2 billion.”
It was normal.
The popularity of a movie couldn't last forever. Seven days of popularity was already a phenomenon. It was considered a god-like work in the film industry, but it would slowly fade out of people's vision.
There would always be new movies and new masterpieces that would replace the original movies.
What Jiang Bei wanted to do was to surpass himself!
The next movie, 3 billion box office earnings!
Jiang Bei did not care much about the rest of the time.
How to protect his fans…
How did the public relations team…
How to maintain the heat…
That was the task of the management team behind him. His only goal was to make a good movie.
He closed his eyes and opened the system.
Other than the 800,000 that he had spent on Ni Yongxiao's character template, Jiang Bei planned to use the remaining 200,000 Reputation Points to draw the lottery!
Ding... Golden Treasure Chest Lottery. Congratulations to the Host for drawing a bottle of All-purpose Healing Potion.
Ding... Golden Treasure Chest Lottery. Congratulations to the Host for drawing a bottle of All-purpose Healing Potion.
Ding... Golden Treasure Chest Lottery. Congratulations to the Host for drawing a bottle of All-purpose Healing Potion.
Ding... Golden Treasure Chest Lottery. Congratulations to the Host for drawing a bottle of All-purpose Healing Potion.
Jiang Bei was speechless.
No way, his face was so dark?
That was good too. He could give it to Hua Zai or other artists from Imperial Entertainment to return the favor.
After all, it was inevitable to get injured while filming. This kind of good thing couldn't be bought with money.
For actors like Fa Ge and Hua Zai, money was just a number to them. Even giving gifts and money could not hit their weakness.
Only if it was useful could he win the hearts of the people!
A total of 190,000 reputation points and 19 bottles of All-purpose Healing Potion were enough to make him drunk.
Ding... Golden Treasure Chest Lottery. Congratulations to the host for drawing the famous lines of the movie " Rivers and Mountains "!
Jiang Bei:
He clicked to check.
The famous lines of River and Mountain Movie and TV Series were: A salutation, an ode, and a piece of history.
[Effect: When the host reads it aloud, momentum 100%, emotional infection 999, resonance 100%, there is a 50% chance of triggering double reputation points within 7 days!]
Ps: This golden age, as you wish!
(Note 1: This line is supported by acting skills.)）
(Note 2: Please pay attention to the occasion of reading aloud.)）
He understood!
The system rewarded him with a line, and reading it aloud could increase his grandeur.
Wait a minute...
Wasn't this tailor-made for 'The National Drama ceremony'?!
He was reading his lines.
Since Pangu opened the world.
- The Three Emperors settled the country, and the Five Emperors opened the border.
- Whenever the country encounters a major event, the man must be there to sacrifice to the Rong people and sacrifice to the country.
The bones of the dead are like hills, and rivers of blood flow.
We must not disgrace the land of the country or destroy the territory of the country.
A soldier's heart is full of courage, and he will be on the edge of the blade.
The commander's sleeves were stained with blood, and the king's sword shone brightly.
- I don't care about the old and the young, the high and the low, the high and the low.
We must work together.
- To pour the Yellow River, to burst the waves of the East Sea,
- Conquering the land of Hu Krupp, exterminating the caves of Japanese slaves,
- To punish those who deceive you, and to kill those who deceive you,
And the blue sea flows, and I stand without shame,
- Let the corpses cover the wilderness, only the spirit can rely on!
Hiss...
This line…Magnificent and ancient!
