The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 463 I brought my own truck to hit him to death
"Although I really want to, I probably don't have time, Uncle Long. I'll be very busy after returning to China." Zhou Yi, who wanted to refuse, decisively pulled Qian Jiang out to take the blame.

"Are you really not going to consider it, Ayi? Disney can give you a very high salary. I will try to get it for you. Six million US dollars is very likely." Chenglong was a little surprised.

You have to know that this is Disney, a real giant.

Zhou Yi already had a connection with Disney because of "Pirates of the Caribbean", so wouldn't it be a closer relationship if they did it again?

"Forget it, let me tell you the truth, Uncle Long.

"You don't know, there are too many rules here at Disney, especially for such a big production..." Zhou Yi complained about the shortcomings of these big companies and the many conditions that producer Jerry had put forward for him.

He was able to win the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie because of the excellent original soundtrack, but the soundtrack of the movie "Around the World in 80 Days" was not excellent. With his current status, he would be repeatedly tortured by Disney.

I don’t know if Disney will be satisfied if I change the songs. If they are not satisfied, I will have to change them again and again.

He doesn't want to work overtime, it's not worth it.

"Forget about this little money. I'd rather not take it. I want to have peace of mind. You know I'm not short of money."

Wu Yanzu, who was standing quietly by the side, almost spit out the champagne in his mouth——

God damn this little money!
Six million dollars is all that counts - oh, it seems he really doesn't need it...

If you think about this person's terrifying record carefully, I'm afraid the income from the album's copyright licensing is more than this number...

Chenglong, who is well aware of how much Disney insists on its dominant position, can understand Zhou Yi's sincere complaints.

Given Zhou Yi's personality, it's normal that he doesn't want to be a punching bag again after being offended once.

"In that case, are you interested in acting? I will return to China to shoot a new film called "New Police Story." When it comes to the issue of dominance, Chenglong understood Zhou Yi's concerns and turned to talk about another thing.

In terms of importance, "New Police Story" is his highlight next year.

Because many people requested him to return to Hong Kong to shoot this film, and he also wanted to consolidate his domestic base, so after some negotiations he naturally agreed.

To this end, he also plans to open a new company with Yinghuang's boss Yang in Hong Kong in two or three months. At that time, the first film released by the new company will be "New Police Story".

That's why he wanted to invite Zhou Yi.

"No, my acting skills are just hilarious on the big screen."

Zhou Yi waved his hand and refused: "I'd better not go up there and embarrass myself."

"I saw that you performed well in the musical movie 'In the Name of the Father'?" Chenglong had obviously done his homework.

"That was caused by Jiang Wen's torture. I can't bear this kind of suffering again."

Zhou Yi has a very clear understanding of his own level of hard work and endurance.

Although Chenglong had taken the initiative to help him enter the European and American markets, even though he had no English skills, he still accepted the favor. But he really didn't want to get involved in acting, especially the demanding Hong Kong movies.

It's okay to just be a passerby and show up as an easter egg.

For example, he could appear under his real name and hold a concert in Hong Kong.

Wu Yan, who is still a little-known figure at the moment, felt more and more uncomfortable the more he listened...

Is this how Zhou Yi is treated?
The reason why he got the villain role of A-Zu in "New Police Story" was because he was signed to Chenglong's company and had practiced his acting skills for several years. Zhou Yi, who had no serious big screen experience, had the freedom to choose roles at will.

He had no doubt that if Zhou Yi took a fancy to his A-Zu, Cheng Long would immediately offer him the contract.

Although Chenglong was unwilling, he knew Zhou Yi's character very well, so he put the topic aside for the time being and started talking about love and romance again.

The old pervert who is also very successful in playing with female stars in Hollywood is quite experienced in criticizing them.

It was not until the end of the banquet that Cheng Long returned to the hotel where he was staying with the only regret in his heart and met his agent——

"How about it?"

"Not really. Ayi really doesn't want to act. It's true." "If we want to invite him to show up to add to the hype, I'm afraid he can only play a guest role. But in that case, we have to redesign a guest role that can make people shine. Can this drama still add it?"

Chenglong is still very responsible for his work that has returned to the domestic market after many years. The reason why he wanted to invite Zhou Yi so much is because Zhou Yi's box office appeal in China has been proven through "Hero".

He can really expand the box office base.

But after the so-called "good song, bad movie" public opinion, inviting Zhou Yi to write songs alone will lose its appeal to fans.

After hearing Chenglong's story, his agent suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "No, don't we have a character that can be used as an Easter egg? The truck driver."

At the end of the script of "New Police Story", in order to reflect a sense of fate - or drama, the screenwriter arranged a convenience store robbery scene -

The father of the second male protagonist was hit and killed by a truck because he stole bread for his children.

A very simple play.

If the father of the second male lead still needs some acting skills, then the truck driver who doesn't even show his face in the script is really a passerby and doesn't need any acting skills at all.

"Zhou Yi is a law student himself, and playing such a role in the movie can create more dramatic conflict."

"……hiss."

Chenglong thought about it carefully and it seemed to make some sense.
but……

“But isn’t this time a little short? Zhou Yi is such a big star…” The agent, who realized it belatedly, felt a little lacking in confidence.

Even if Zhou Yi himself is willing, Warner is unlikely to release it unless Zhou Yi himself really expresses a very strong desire.

So, the question is, how can we convince Zhou Yi to come and make a guest appearance?

Suddenly, Chenglong thought of some news from the past and some comments from Zhou Yi.

Three minutes later, it was already morning in the imperial capital.

Jiang Wen, who was having dinner, received a call from Chenglong, who invited him to make a cameo appearance in a new movie next year - a father who was hit and killed by a car while trying to snatch food for his child.

"Okay, no problem, no problem."

Jiang Wen laughed heartily.

Anyway, he had nothing to do and was bored, so helping out and making a cameo appearance in a movie was something he was very familiar with.

"Chenglong's new movie? Do you want to make a cameo appearance?"

At home, Jiang Wu, who came to visit his brother, was surprised when he heard about this: "Isn't he in Hollywood?"

"There is a lack of talent in Hong Kong, so we just asked him to come back to stabilize the situation. The company has already made plans."

Jiang Wen, who was cracking melon seeds, smiled and said nonchalantly, "It's just a small role for a few minutes. It's a bit boring to stay at home for so long. I'll just take it as a break when the time comes."

He still likes the set very much.

Just think of it as a change of mood.

Thirteen minutes later, in New York, Zhou Yi, who had just finished the celebration banquet, received a call from Cheng Long.

"Hey?"

After returning to the hotel suite, the tipsy Zhou Yi took off his coat with Scarlett's help: "What did you say?! Playing a truck driver opposite Jiang Wen???"

Scarlett Johansson, who was about to fill the bathtub, was attracted by Zhou Yi's suddenly high tone. When she looked at him, he sat up straight on the sofa.

"No problem! I can go! I can even run him over with my own truck!"
