This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 182: Money or No Money Doesn't Matter (asking for monthly ticket)
Even Hu Jun praised Wu Zhenyu's acting skills.

He and Hao Yun are the only two actors from the mainland in the crew. Even if they don't stick together for warmth, at least they have more communication.

What's more, the two of them also starred in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" together.

The TV series "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" has begun large-scale promotion in mainland China and is scheduled to be broadcast in December this year.

It has long been no secret that Hao Yun plays Yun Zhonghe.

Compared to Hu Jun who played the leading male role, Hao Yun's role was really low, and many netizens joked that he had played a good hand badly.

They didn’t know that when Hao Yun was just starting out, even small characters like Yin Zhiping and Yun Zhonghe had to go through a lot of hardships to get it.

For example, the audition of Yin Zhiping.

Hao Yun’s acting skills were too poor at the time, and even after 30 takes of Jiang Qinqin’s acting, he still couldn’t give people a brilliant feeling.

Fortunately, I used Jiang Qinqin’s attributes and acted very much like Jiang Qinqin.

She helped by saying a few words on the side, which gave Hao Yun the opportunity to show off his martial arts skills. It was only after the two performances combined that he played Yin Zhiping, and that was only Yin Zhiping in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Yin Zhiping has a more important role in "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

However, perhaps he should be called Zhen Zhibing now.

In the revised version of "The Return of the Condor Heroes", Mr. Jin transferred the above-mentioned roles to the new character "Zhen Zhibing", while Yin Zhiping was rewritten as a minor character who devoted himself to the way of inner alchemy and qi refining.

Whether it is Yin Zhiping or Zhen Zhibing, Hao Yun will never be able to perform again.

Now many people in the domestic entertainment industry are looking for him to film TV series.

You no longer have to be like when you first debuted, not only are you not eligible to choose roles, but you also have to go through brutal auditions.

However, most of these TV dramas feature male supporting roles.

Even Hu Jun introduced a male supporting role to Hao Yun, which made Hao Yun quite helpless.

He is in urgent need of a starring role now.

Even if it's not enough to create a big explosion after he gets on the field, at least it proves that he can handle it.

Of course, he doesn't have to play the leading role to take the role. If there is a really good project, he will take it even if it is a supporting role.

For a newcomer like him with no background, maintaining his popularity is the most important thing.

It's hard to find a starring role.

However, he did not expect that Fang Long would ask him to play a supporting role.

This is Fang Long.

Being able to work with him is something many actors dream of.

"Brother Fang Long, what kind of play do you want me to play?" Fang Long was very direct when they met. He wanted to ask Hao Yun to play a role.

Hao Yun suspected that if he didn't agree, he might not be allowed to order this dish today.

People only talk about serious matters after three rounds of drinks.

How can you just start when you sit down?

However, Fang Long really didn't mean that. While answering Hao Yun, he quickly ordered a few dishes and handed the menu to Hao Yun to continue ordering.

It turns out that Fang Long recently took on a movie.

The script of this movie was completed last year. The male lead was originally chosen to be Zhang Guorong, but he passed away after jumping off a building at the Mandarin Hotel more than two months ago.

The investor has already invested a lot of money in the preliminary preparations and it is impossible for them to give up, so they can only look for someone else.

Since the great success of "Rumble in the Bronx" in 1995, Van Loon's popularity in Hollywood has reached an unprecedented high, and he began his Hollywood journey.

He shot six films in a row over a four-year period, and the first four maintained a consistent standard. But who would have thought that he would suffer major failures with the later films "Back to the Past" and "Around the World in 80 Days". Not only did the box office performances suffer, the reputation plummeted, and he was also questioned by Hollywood.

Influenced by this, Fang Long had the idea of ​​returning to Hong Kong to develop his career.

He and this movie were both seeking transformation and lacking a male lead, but in the end, the two sides hit it off.

Since the script was originally written by Zhang Guorong and now it has been replaced by Fang Long, the first thing to do is to modify the script, delete a lot of emotional scenes, and add some commercial elements.

More importantly, the name of the movie was changed to "New Police Stories" - at least it can take advantage of the popularity of the first four "Police Stories" films.

In terms of the cast, in addition to Fang Long, there is also Xie Tingfeng, who announced his temporary retirement from the music industry.

After the case of taking the blame for someone else, he needs to rebuild his image.

Then there is still a very important villain missing.

For this role, director Chen Musheng initially preferred Wu Yanzu, with whom he had worked before in "Young and Dangerous".

However, Wu Yanzu directly refused.

He is doing very well now, and can easily take the leading role. He is not considering the villain role for the time being, even if he is working with Van Loon. There are many outstanding villains in Van Loon's movies, but they don't add much to the actors.

In other words, all of them are designed to highlight Van Loong.

First, Fang Long was beaten into a dog, and then Fang Long fought back. The routine was exactly the same every time.

I get tired of watching it too much.

Chen Musheng went to discuss the matter with Fang Long, who recommended him to play the villain in "The Matrix", and with this role, he became more popular in Hong Kong than Chen Guanxi and Twins' Hao Yun.

Boss Yang spent a lot of money on "The Matrix" to promote Chen Guanxi and Twins, and even invited Fang Long, Mo Wenwei, Zheng Yijian, He Chaoyi and others to play supporting roles.

Unexpectedly, Hao Yun would reap the biggest benefit.

The vampire Count he played looked cool and his fighting moves were awesome.

He is so handsome, what's wrong with being a little bad?

This role earned him a large number of fans in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

It's just that he doesn't know it.

The fan support he saw at the concert was the benefit this role brought him.

"The villain..." Hao Yun actually didn't want to play the role.

It's a pity that he doesn't have the confidence of Wu Yanzu, who can easily get the leading role and collaborate with Li Ming, Su Qi, Wang Zuxian, Gu Tianle, Wu Zhenyu, Li Jiaxin and others.

As for Fang Long...

Wu Yanzu had worked with him before in "Glass Bottle", so it was nothing new.

"Actually, the character itself is quite attractive. You can take a look at the character introduction." Fang Long took out the information and handed it to Hao Yun.

Hao Yun had no choice but to take it and open it to read.

Sure enough, every villain seems to have a miserable childhood.

Our villain grew up in a family with a strict father and a kind mother. His father believed in frustration-based education, and his mother only used money to comfort him.

But what he wanted was affirmation and companionship, not six hundred yuan.

If this goes on for a long time, the mind will be distorted.

He hated the police.

Killing the police is tantamount to "parricide" to a certain extent.

The villain uses this extreme way to declare his rebellion.

With the mask on, he becomes a ruthless bandit.

Without the mask, he is just a big boy who is inferior and longs to be loved.

"What do you think? The budget of this movie is very high. I will only get 8 million yuan in salary. If you come to act in it, I can offer you 500,000 Hong Kong dollars." Fang Long called Lin Chaoxian and learned that Hao Yun's salary for acting in "The Matrix" was only 100,000 yuan.

Damn, Hao Yun is so mean.

Almost all of the movies Chen Guanxi makes now earn over one million Hong Kong dollars.

Hao Yun is actually only one-tenth of his ability.

If we invite Wu Yanzu, it would cost at least one or two million.

You give Hao Yun 500,000...

"Okay, I'll take this role. Thank you, Brother Fang Long, for your kindness. The money doesn't matter. I just like this role so much. This role is so profound. I think there is a lot of room for me to develop my talents..."

When Hao Yun heard that the offer was 500,000, he didn't hesitate at all.

Generally speaking, the pay for working with big names is not high.

For example, when working with Van Loong, his current salary is 20 million US dollars. Considering the current market in Hong Kong, if you really spend this much money to hire him, there will be no money left for other actors.

"Infernal Affairs 1" had Liu Furong and Liang Chaowei, and Hao Yuncai only received Hong Kong dollars.

Without these two big payroll payees in "Infernal Affairs 2", Hao Yun immediately received yuan.

Now that he is working with Fang Long, he can get a salary of 500,000 yuan. Why is he still hesitating? Even if he is asked to play the leading role in a TV series, he will not change.

"Happy cooperation!" Fang Long and Hao Yun shook hands.

The reason why he received such a low salary for this movie is because he invested in it.

That's why he cares so much about it.
