Chapter 47 Movie?

Generally, successful small business owners like to reminisce about the past!

In his previous life, when Shen Yan was working, there was a small boss in Zhejiang who wore glasses and would talk about his life in the past...

Same goes for Cai Yinong...

Just missing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses...

Shen Yan followed her lead and asked, for example, "Did you ever feel particularly helpless when starting your business..."

She decisively gave two examples: 'In 99, after we finished filming The Twins, a company boss invited me to lunch. He brought five burly bodyguards, who surrounded the table and stared at me intently. He dropped a contract on the table and, with a pen in hand, forced me to sign for five TV series.'

I told him directly: I won't sign the contract, and at worst I'll just change my career.'

"After the release of 'Peerless Twins', a company owed 400 million yuan in copyright fees, leaving the crew with no money to pay salaries and plunging into a bleak situation.

I had no choice but to take a female colleague and break into the other person's company with a baseball bat.

Before I went in, I told my colleague, "If I don't come out later, call the police."

"and after?"

"I got the money back. The company later went bankrupt, and I was the only one who successfully got the money back out of all the outstanding debts."

"awesome!"

Cai Yinong looked at Shen Yan and suddenly asked, "Have you seen Lao Hu's version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"

"I saw a little..."

"How does it feel?"

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, then said: "Very good..."

“…Don’t you think it’s shocking?”

"That's not the case. After all, it's based on the original novel, so even if it's a disaster, it can't be that bad..."

……

Hu Ge's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was the first Jin Yong drama to be filmed completely in the style of an idol drama. Later, Yu Zheng made "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" and "The Return of the Condor Heroes", continuing this trend...

As for how he performed...

It's just so-so, not outstanding, but not terrible either!

Guo Jing is a simple but not dull character.

Hu Ge's lips are raised, his speech speed is fast, and he changes it deliberately. It is very uncomfortable to watch and it is hard to have the desire to continue watching...

Well, Guo Jing is difficult to play. Jin Yong's writing about Guo Jing is actually very contradictory. On the one hand, he wants to portray Guo Jing as a protagonist who has no extraordinary talent, is even a little stupid, and has a pure heart. But on the other hand, he can't help but write Guo Jing as a protagonist with extraordinary talent.

Before meeting Huang Rong, Guo Jing's martial arts training was a disaster. He learned martial arts from the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan for more than ten years, but the results were very poor. Some people said that it was because of the poor education level of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, but even Ma Yu, one of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen, failed to teach Guo Jing well.

Since meeting Huang Rong, Guo Jing's journey of cheating began. He met Hong Qigong. Although Hong Qigong said that he had never seen anyone as stupid as Guo Jing, the fact was that after learning martial arts from Hong Qigong for a few years, Guo Jing was able to fight with top masters like Ouyang Feng.

You know, the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan combined are not enough to crush Ouyang Feng!

Therefore, Guo Jing's talent has been changing all the time, from being described as having inferior talent at the beginning of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, to being able to fight against one of the four great masters without losing at the end, and then to his extraordinary talent of practicing the Nine Yin in The Return of the Condor Heroes. It can be said that it is extremely contradictory...

It can only be said that Jin Yong has always emphasized Guo Jing's mediocre talent, but has always given him cheats to make him a top master...

This thing makes it more difficult for the actors!
In fact, in Jin Yong’s novels, there is a character similar to Guo Jing...You Tanzhi.

Like Guo Jing, You Tanzhi has poor aptitude, relies on supreme internal strength to build his foundation, and takes innate magical objects.

He just learned the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, married a witch, and killed his enemies.
Another was beaten by a natural god of war, had his legs broken and his eyes blinded, and jumped off a cliff like a licking dog...

After chatting about trivial matters, Cai Yinong said: "I read "Lotus Tower"... It's a very good story. I want to..."

Shen Yan shook his head: "My condition is that I play the protagonist..."

“…That’s impossible!” Cai Yinong shook his head: “Change it!”

Having been in the circle for so long, Cai Yinong has met many people, including people like Shen Yan... To put it nicely, he is conceited, but to put it bluntly, he is stupid!
Shen Yan waved his hand: "...My agent will come over tomorrow and he will talk to you." "Is your agent Ji Xiang?"

"Um…"

Cai Yinong certainly knew Ji Xiang...

Tangren also asked Li Bingbing to film a movie in those days - "New Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", "Xiao Cui" unit, Li Bingbing played Xiao Cui, partnering with Jimmy Lin.

Ji Xiang is not easy to deal with!

She sighed and then asked, "I heard from Shishi that you wrote the song for our 'Yi Pi Tian Xia'?"

"Director Li mentioned it that day, and I thought I could give it a try, so I went back and wrote a song..."

"Can you listen to it?"

"Of course..." Shen Yan took out his phone and clicked play...

After hearing this, Cai Yinong immediately made the decision: "I want it. You name a price!"

In fact, Shi Shi had already sent it to her...

This time it’s just for show!

Shen Yan smiled and said, "Ji Xiang will come over tomorrow and let him talk to you!"

"Yeah, it would be more reasonable to talk to the agent..." Cai Yinong nodded: "Is Xiao Shen pursuing a dual career in film, television, and music?"

"Not really... I'm mainly in the film and television industry, singing is just a side job!"

"…sideline?"

"Brother Ji Xiang analyzed it with me. Singing isn't profitable these days. Records can't even be sold... For a newcomer like me with no reputation, it's unlikely I can become famous through singing... I still have to act!"

Cai Yinong: "...Did Ji Xiang help you get any resources?"

"It was Brother Ji Xiang who fought for me to be able to act in the Tangren drama!" Shen Yan said frankly, "Otherwise, a newcomer like me wouldn't even get an audition opportunity."

“…I heard Ji Xiang is helping you secure film resources.”

"No..." Shen Yan scratched his head, not quite sure: "I haven't heard of it!"

“…Ji Xiang is very close to Hua Yi, so it would be easy for him to get you a movie role!”

"It's not that simple... I'm not a famous star..."

……

Unlike what Shen Yan had imagined, Cai Yinong neither forced Shen Yan to give up his relationship with Shi Shi, nor did he show any contempt for him...

Damn it, Shen Yan was already ready for his 'Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't look down on the young and poor!' speech...

It's of no use!
They didn’t even forcefully propose to acquire the adaptation rights for “Lotus Tower”…

Sounds like a very friendly person!

The dinner ended, Shen Yan said goodbye and left...

Shi Shi asked him what he thought of Cai Yinong...

"I don't have any opinion...but I'm really surprised that she doesn't restrict you from dating?"

"...As long as it doesn't affect her work, she doesn't care!" Shi Shi nodded: "Old K is very nice to us..."

"...It's really good... I heard that when Brother Hu was in a car accident, the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was shut down. Cai Yinong simply disbanded the crew and waited for Brother Hu to recover before resuming filming..."

"Right!" Liu Shishi nodded. "We all admired her back then... Hey, are you going to act in a movie?"

"What kind of movie can someone like me act in? Even if I did, I'd only be a supporting actor at best..."
