King of Gossip

Chapter 248 Prodigal

In fact, Wang Jing's words have been criticizing Chen Jin for being a little unprofessional. Chen Jin is also a little angry. He thought why you were right. He raised his eyebrows, but he did not attack. Instead, he calmed down and remembered what his brother said in an interview, to the effect was:

Being an actor, acting in a movie is just a part-time job. You can't be above the director. You can give him what the director wants. This is already your most competent performance, and he is worthy of that labor. If you always dictate the director's work, that movie is not the director. The movie has become yours, which is not appropriate. Otherwise, you can be the director yourself!

You always have too many opinions. It's not only hard, but also gives people the impression that you like to point fingers too much. On the surface, others don't say anything, but behind their backs, they always say that you are playing big and not easy to serve, although you may want to make the movie better.

The first to stand up, when Brother Qiang and Director Wang Jing thought he was angry, they said faintly, "Let's try it." The two guys breathed a sigh of relief. Brother Qiang even stared at Wang Jing, blaming him for not speaking leisurely. By the way, if Chen Jin left, he didn't know how much effort it would take to get people back. Of course, he also felt that Chen Jin's acting skills were no problem, but the effect was different from Wang Jing's.

This kind of conflict between the director and the actor has always been awesome, and the actor is generally more awesome than the director. Although Xu Keniu, what he is awesome is that he usually has the status of a producer, or his wife Shi Nansheng also has almost all the rights of the crew. In addition, many times, his film company The film studio has also participated in the production of many films, which can be regarded as the producers.

If it weren't for this, when he met those super big names, he would have been fired long ago. To put it bluntly, the director is actually a very difficult job. There are production and part-time jobs, and there are also big actors below. When he makes trouble, the first unlucky one is definitely him. He can't run away. This kind of thing is not uncommon at all.

Director Wang Jing could only smile bitterly. Brother Chong Qiang shook his head helplessly and got up to try again, but he didn't expect it, but it still didn't work. Although Chen Jin has made some changes, it is not suitable for the overall style at all.

After Director Wang Jing included five or six CUTs, considering that it would be boring to try again, he was afraid that Uncle Chen Jin would be really angry if he shouted too much, and he would not do it, although he was also very famous.

Called Chen Jin over and explained, "Mr. KING, let me tell you the main idea of this play. We did not follow the original work, but a very relaxed and spoof comedy. The actor's performance also needs to be as exaggerated as the expression in the script, so as to bring joy to the audience."

Seeing that Chen Jin was listening attentively, he smiled apologetically. KING, IT'S NOT THAT YOU ARE NOT GOOD AT ACTING WELL, BUT THAT THE THINGS YOU GIVE ARE NOT IN LINE WITH THE STYLE OF THE WHOLE MOVIE. TAKE THE AMBIGUIDE TO SAY THAT YOU CAN GO TO SEE Z Zhou INGCHI'S FILM AND SEE HIS PERFORMANCE STYLE. IT'S NOT TO HAVE THE SAME AS HIM, BUT THE STYLE.

It's taboo to say so. Let one actor go to see another actor's performance. If there is a disparity in status, it's fine, but Chen Jin and Zhou Xingchi are both super celebrities, and after listening to him, Chen Jin's face immediately became very strange.

Brother Qiang grabbed Wang Jing and walked aside and scolded, "I can see something now. Have you been asking KING in the way of Zhou Xingchi's performance? You know, the two of them are completely different."

The last stare, "I think you have to change it. You can't always use that guy's tricks."

Wang Jing was really speechless and smiled bitterly, "If KING is the same as you think, I will be miserable, but I just made it very clear that it is not to learn certain movements and expressions, intonations, but styles. Everyone can have different expressions, but the style or essence must be like that."

Brother Qiang said nonsensically, "The style and style can also be changed. I think you can change it." Producers and supervisors have the right to make decisions and modify the style of the film, and what he said is not a slang.

Wang Jing almost found a piece of tofu and hit it to death. But if he had the confidence, he could only spread his hands with a wry smile, "Boss, this is how this script was written. At the beginning, it was decided like this. At this time, if it needs to be changed, it will be done again. Time and everything before will be wasted."

He has a very accurate grasp of Brother Qiang's mind. Time and money are the most important. If everything needs to be done again, Brother Qiang really needs to think about it.

Just in time, Chen Jin was already waving to them at this time, with a faint smile on his face, which seemed to be all right.

In fact, when Chen Jin just heard Director Wang Jing say that Zhou Xingchi was there, he suddenly understood a knot in his heart - he had always had a psychological hint of resistance to performing according to Zhou Xingchi's performance. It was not that Zhou Xingchi did not perform well, but that he was afraid that his last performance would be the same as Zhou Xingchi. That means that he really imitates and echoes Zhou Xingchi, which he is very unwilling to do. Since he takes over this movie, he has to have his own style. This is his requirement for himself. Therefore, the more so, the worse he behaves. He is too deliberate and looks a little stiff.

If you understand, it's easy to figure it out that everyone has different ways to express their feelings of joy. As long as the final effect is happy and easy to spoof, it doesn't matter what way it is. He and Zhou Xingchi must be different, which is also certain.

When Brother Qiang and Director Wang Jing came over, he smiled happily. The sudden realization of the smile made people tremble. Even Brother Qiang and Wang Jing were stunned. Chen Jin seemed to realize this and deliberately shouted a little. "Director Wang Jing, thank you for your suggestion just now. I think I understand. Let's try again. Let's go."

Wang Jing woke up and heard what he said. She was naturally happy. She patted him on the shoulder and said jokingly, "You'd better keep your smile for the little girl. I still like women. If you are fascinated, it will be miserable."

When he started again, Chen Jin really let go. He was sensitive and his acting skills were no problem. He even knew how to make his funny expressions, movements and tones to make everyone laugh. Even sometimes he did not shy away from expressing it in Zhou Xingchi's way, such as using his mouth to bite his hand to express surprise, but he The expression is more joyful and interesting.

This is a comedy movie in his true sense, or a nonsensical movie like Stephen Chow, but this time he has a deeper understanding of how to perform, and he also has his own comedy style.

After a day of shooting, it was great. The scene even shouted CUT because the staff watched Chen Jin's performance, but everyone enjoyed it. Who cares about this kind of episode?

At the end of the day's performance, Chen Jin smiled, and Brother Qiang also smiled. Director Wang Jing also laughed. He shouted the last PASS and patted Chen Jin's arm. "It's not me who flatter you. In terms of understanding, Hong Kong has no match for you, and it's absolutely not wrong to go to Hollywood in the future."

Brother Qiang answered with fun, "I was so anxious just now. Fortunately, King, you adjusted quickly, otherwise I would be fired from the director."

Chen Jin smiled and said, "Brother Qiang, you can't do this. If you want to fire, you can only fire me. If the director leaves, the movie will be over."

The shooting of the film is smooth, but the days are getting busier and busier. Not only are there four movies being filmed, but also the Japanese and Korean albums to be released in March are being prepared. The Mandarin album to be released at the end of March and the collection with Lian Junying in April also need to be prepared. Even Wang Zuxian's albums need to enter the countdown.

What's more, there are so many commercial performances and advertisements, public welfare activities, etc. It is said that in February, according to statistics, he and Andy Lau are the busiest. Even at the end of the month, he is busier than Andy Lau, and it is normal to sleep three or four hours a day.

I was too busy, and the original plan was also disrupted. The TV series that had to be prepared for half a month was not ready until the beginning of March, and at this time, "Hot Hand Detective" was finally finished.

Brother Fa is really idle this year. After the filming of "Spicy Hand Detective", he now has only one play in his hand, and there are not many other activities.

After the simple ceremony of completion, Chen Jin pulled Brother Fa to find a tea restaurant casually. Without saying much, he directly took the script to him and asked him to see it first. Brother Fa was not busy to read it. He joked him, "You are so busy, and you still want to drink afternoon tea with me here!"

Chen Jin shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "It's a little late to regret now. Who asked me to take so many jobs," Brother Fa joked, "But you also earn a lot. I heard that at the beginning of the year, your value has almost doubled, and some people say that you have earned 50 million in more than half a month."

"Money is really nothing to me," Chen Jin shrugged his shoulders and curled his lips. "You should also know why I want to increase my price. Now those guys are shrewd and don't look for them directly. They come around the bush. No one has three relatives, relatives and friends. You are embarrassed to push this kind of favor."

"But after your price has risen, it seems that there are no fewer people!" Brother Fa smiled, glanced at him, and began to read the script. Chen Jin also smiled bitterly, "Who knows, these guys seem to have no place to spend money. I'm now thinking about whether to double it again."

"Do it again, you're crazy!" When Brother Fa heard this, he laughed and said, "You really think you are a cash cow. If you want to say, you have made more money than me now, which makes me very unhappy!"

What he said is true, not to mention advertising and commercial performances. Now Chen Jin is at the top of all Hong Kong stars. Of course, it is also his high influence. It is said that the advertisers who spoke for it last year even made money and even woke up from sleep.

But now there is a strange phenomenon. If you invest in movies, whether it is Jackie Chan, Chow Chow, Chow Yun-fa, the film remuneration of the three of them can't catch up with Chen Jin.

According to statistics, Chen Jin's salary for each of the four films last year was as high as 5.6 million yuan, which is already a record remuneration. Moreover, with the final prosperity of the film market, everyone's salary has been increased this year, but Chen Jin has also increased, and exaggeratedly increased as much as 80%, that is to say, his film The reward may be as high as 10 million.

You know, many movies have a box office of less than 10 million, but everyone is superstitious about Chen Jin's appeal. Who told him that the four movies he played last year were on the top ten of the annual film list?

Chen Jin waved his hand and didn't want to talk about this topic anymore. The current market is really crazy, and people are also crazy, but he didn't know that this was just the last madness. He couldn't turn the tide. Perhaps, now is the time to protect himself. It's not too late to slow down when there is a good opportunity.

I waited quietly for about half an hour. I'm afraid that it's really the first time for Chen Jin to have such a leisurely time in the past 20 days. You know, he doesn't even have much time left to steal, and his life is really busy.

Brother Fa finally raised his head. He just glanced at the script and thought it was a little interesting, but it was still a little different from what he imagined. He closed the script and said to Chen Jinyang, "This is the good guy you said."

Chen Jin shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "What, don't you think it's okay?" Brother Fa shook his head, "It's not that it's not good, but I don't think it's as good as what you said, or that I expect too much from you."

Chen Jin smiled softly, "It seems that there is a generation gap between us. Is this because you are getting old?" Without waiting for Brother Fa to lose the script and smash him, he quickly raised his hand, "Don't worry, Brother Fa, I promise that this play will not be bad, and if I say that the investment of this TV series is as high as 20 million, what do you think?"

"Tempulties, you are really." Brother Fa almost jumped up when he heard it, pointing to Chen Jin and didn't know what to say. You know, this TV series is only 20 episodes. It's more common for him to make a drama like this wirelessly now, and tens of thousands of episodes.

In this era, not only a super celebrity's episode will be paid by millions. Even if it is Brother Fa, acting in such a TV series will not exceed 150,000 yuan. Even if Chen Jin's remuneration is added, even if the highest price is given, everything else is the best. From 500,000 yuan per episode is already the highest price.

"Do you think I'm a little prodigal!" Chen Jin was not conscious at all. Instead, he was a little complacent. "Since I want to do it, I will do my best, from clothing props, various scene effects, etc., to make it into a visual feast, plus such a good plot, which makes him popular all over Asia in an instant."

Brother Fa rolled his eyes. He was indisputable. He even looked forward to the effect of such a high-cost TV series after shooting. He asked curiously, "Are you sure you are ready? When will it start?"

As soon as I heard his words, I knew that he was moved. Chen Jin smiled and said, "You can't be in a hurry. You may have to wait for another month. After all, this is a big project and it needs more time to prepare."

Another heroine, Chen Jin, has thought about it. With Zhou Huimin, this beautiful woman's temperament and appearance are quite in line with the role in the script, and Zhou Huimin heard his invitation and immediately agreed when she had no problem with the wireless.

Brother Fa didn't say much. He shot the script and said, "Well, I'll just get on the thief's boat and play with you."
