Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 695 Strange Flower Mixed In!

The upsurge caused by "Infernal Affairs" in Hong Kong has broken the record of Chinese-language movies released in the past ten years.

Zeng Yuanjiang, as the host of TVB, saw the good results of "Infernal Affairs", and as one of the leading actors, he can't help boasting in the show, not only his own show, but also any show that invites him to participate. He will show off the box office results of "Infernal Affairs" in the Mainland.

Although "Infernal Affairs" was released in Hong Kong a whole week later than in mainland China, and many Xiangjiang residents had gone to Shenzhen to watch the film in advance, it still won 7000 million in three weeks.

The reason why it can still sell this result is that "Infernal Affairs" released in Hong Kong and Macau is in Cantonese. Even if the whole of Guangdong is in the Cantonese-speaking area, it is also in Mandarin. It is this factor that makes Xiangjiang people willing to buy tickets. admission.

After the second part finished, the crew only had a day off before entering the third stage of filming.

However, before filming, Li Zhifan set aside a special day to recruit new actors for the extras that will be used in the third stage of filming.

When I was filming the first and second parts before, this kind of trick was always contacted at any time. Anyway, with the Xiangjiang Actors Union and TVB, a car of extras can be found with just one phone call.

The reason why the third part has such an audition is actually a cooperation with TVB.

Because Zeng Yuanjiang was busy making movies, he didn't record well for several episodes. He used old materials and added some new shots. Now that "Infernal Affairs" is very popular, TVB also took the opportunity to finalize this set The plan is to make a few episodes of "Infernal Affairs" amateur casting special, with Zeng Yuanjiang, Li Zhifan, Chen Guanjun and Liao Feng as the judges, and Zeng Yuanjiang is still the host, controlling the recording rhythm.

Auditions started early in the morning.

There were seven or eight cameras on the scene, a production team, and Li Zhifan and four people sat on a long table in the middle, with microphones in front of them, and the simple words "Infernal Affairs 3 Casting Site" written on the back, and In the open space in front of them, there was only a rectangular carpet, and a radio microphone was hanging from the roof.

Although it is said that it is an audition for amateurs, TVB will arrange some artists who have already debuted to pretend to be amateurs. Most of these people have just signed with TVB within a year, and the best ones are only those who have acted in a certain drama with few lines. The characters, even most of them are playing some nonsense without lines.

The first boy who came here is such a role.

"Hello!" Zeng Yuanjiang took the lead to ask, "Have you ever had acting experience?"

"Yes!" The other party said bluntly, "I have made a guest appearance on TVB before, but it was the kind that had no lines. I really want to act, but TVB's artist contract is not so easy to sign. This time I heard that Director Li chose the role. , I just wanted to try it.”

"Ok!"

Zeng Yuanjiang looked at Li Zhifan, "Do you have any questions?"

Li Zhifan looked at his face and figure, sized him up for a while and said, "You are quite suitable to play a policeman, because your face is relatively upright, come on, play one for us to see!"

"it is good!"

The boy came as soon as he said he wanted to, and immediately made the gesture of holding a gun, and shouted: "Don't move! Hands up, I'm a policeman!"

Li Zhifan smiled, looked at Liao Feng, and asked him to comment.

Liao Feng spread his hands, and said helplessly: "It's more deliberate, but it's enough to be used in TVB TV dramas, but your performance is not outstanding. Have you watched the latest "Infernal Affairs"?"

"Look!"

The boy nodded again and again, "I really like the role of Director Li's Chen Yongren. Of course, Brother Guan Jun's role as Liu Jianming is also very good."

The four looked at each other and smiled, and Liao Feng continued, "Okay then, play the role of a policeman following Sir Huang, and let me see your level."

"track?"

The boy thought for a while, then suddenly started to sprint on the field.

After walking a few steps, he stopped and turned around again, secretly turned his head in a furtive manner, stared at one direction for a while, then turned around and ran away.

Running back again, he pretended to caress the headset and said, "Sir Liu, Sir Huang has gone upstairs!... OK!"

After finishing speaking, he stood still and pretended to pick up a magazine, squinting in one direction while reading.

"Not bad!"

Li Zhifan took the lead in clapping his hands, "Stop! You are actually very talented, but you still need to work hard. Your real acting skills are honed in filming. As a rookie, the audition can't show anything too outstanding. Only when you have accumulated a certain amount of experience in drama can you form your own unique style. Well, go back and wait for news!"

"Thank you Director Li!"

The boy smiled and nodded, "Thank you seniors!"

The second person to come in was a young boy with glasses.

He was a little dazed. He was wearing a plaid shirt and jeans. He was fairly clean, but the shirt was a little wrinkled, and the sneakers under his feet were dirty. The first impression he gave was that he didn't pay much attention to this audition.

Zeng Yuanjiang took the lead to ask again: "Hello, do you know what type of movie we are? What type of role do you want to play?"

Since it is stated that it is a supporting role, it must be young and Dangerous or a policeman.

This is what Zeng Yuanjiang wanted to ask.

But I didn't expect the man with the eyes to put his pockets in his pockets, and with a dejected expression on his face, he said in a very arrogant tone: "Of course it's the male lead, I heard it's a double male lead, right? This third part of yours should be a prequel Something like that? I guess it should be Chen Yongren or Liu Jianming when they were young, right? I can take that.”

As soon as these words came out, the four people present all looked confused, thinking: Boy, did you make a mistake?We are not casting male leads!

Seeing the four people staring at him without saying a word, the man with glasses frowned and said loudly: "Come on, I'm in a hurry! Tell me, how long are you going to shoot? Three months? Or five months? Is there any salary?" 200 million? For you filmmakers, an actor with a salary of 200 million is not a big deal, right? With this 200 million, I can buy a house and pay the down payment immediately, and I can sell a cheaper car of 40 million Open it. Of course, if you shoot for more than five months, or less than 200 million, I have to think about it."

Li Zhifan lowered his head, covered his mouth and blushed with a smirk, and pushed Zeng Yuanjiang to let him speak.

This young man really should have asked for 200 million?

It seems that I really think that I can play the leading role, the key is who are you?
Based on what he said, it is estimated that it is impossible for someone to spend 200 million yuan to ask him to play the leading role in his lifetime, unless that person is as stupid as him.

Zeng Yuanjiang blushed, he didn't find it funny, but felt a little embarrassed, he frowned and asked, "Young man, do you know how actors' remuneration is calculated?"

"I know!" said the man with glasses, "I often watch entertainment news. Now, well-known first-line actors in the mainland are paid hundreds of millions of dollars? I'm a newcomer, and I can give you a small change."

Chen Guanjun took the words with a blank face and asked, "What do you do?"

"I just graduated and have no job for now!"

The man with glasses didn't feel ashamed at all, but said proudly, "However, some time ago, a senior introduced me to work in an Internet company, but the salary he gave was too low. The probationary period was only [-] yuan. With my computer skills , Why not sixty to seventy thousand? This amount of money is not as good as playing games at home, and now e-sports is very promising, whether it is a professional player or a game anchor, it costs several million a year."

"Oh?" Li Zhifan finally held back his smile and looked up at him, "That's great? Why don't you do it? Seeing your eloquence, an online game anchor is very suitable for you!"

"Is my skill too inferior to be a game anchor?"

The man with glasses said with a look of disgust, "Some time ago, my classmate made a cheat, which is the very popular TPS game recently. It sold to the mainland and directly earned 30 yuan, and he only spent two nights designing it. "

"What about you?" Li Zhifan narrowed his eyes.

"I guess it can be done in one night!"

The man with glasses is very domineering, "It's all small technology, very simple, real gamers don't even bother to do it."

Li Zhifan turned his face and coughed, and winked at Chen Guanjun and Liao Feng, hoping that they would quickly say a few words to drive this person away. He opened his mouth to talk about others and his classmates, but he never talked about himself, and the classmates were cheating , he still feels very honorable, this kind of person still wants to be a gamer?Go dreaming!

"Then what, you are excellent, we will consider you!"

Liao Feng spoke at this time, he probably couldn't listen anymore.

In the past few decades, he has witnessed the development and changes of Xiangjiang, including Xiangjiang people. The older generation of Xiangjiang people are hardworking and brave, but Xiangjiang people always want to get rich overnight. Those who were in debt overnight, those who were deceived by pyramid schemes and jumped into the sea...Nowadays, the younger generation of Xiangjiang people still have inspiration, but there are also such useless youths in front of them, who always feel that they are "whatever they do", but they have done nothing. So I didn’t achieve anything, my heart was higher than the sky, and my life was thinner than paper. I felt that no matter what industry I was in, I could be compared with the top figures in the industry, and I couldn’t do anything except gnaw on the old.

"Don't be sloppy with me!"

The man with glasses actually said something in Mandarin, and looked at Li Zhifan and said, "Director Li, tell me clearly, can you or can't, I'm really in a hurry, my friend is still waiting for me!"

"Ugh!" Li Zhifan had no choice but to say to himself, "Sorry, we can't use you..."

"Cut, waste my time!"

The man with glasses interrupted Li Zhifan directly, and left.

The four people on the stage were dumbfounded again, they would have kicked him out if they had known this before, and listened to his nonsense for a long time.

On the side, the director of the TVB production team was happy.

This is how it feels like a variety show. With these funny people, this casting has a ratings. They all come to the audition with a single eye, so what's the point?
Then a few more people came in. In order to prevent people like the man with glasses from appearing again, Li Zhifan asked people from the program team to guard the first post outside, and all the casting personnel checked first to prevent strange things from mixing in.

But the program team agreed on the surface, but for the sake of the program effect, they would not. They also deliberately searched for strange things outside and arranged to enter the venue early.

……

"That fitness trainer just now is not bad!"

"Well, there is also the female model, and a female police officer can be arranged."

A few people were chatting, and someone came outside again.

This time it was different, there were actually two people who came in.

A man who looks gentle, but also very dull. He is wearing a large suit, his hair is parted in the middle, and he also has an eye, but it is an old black-framed pair of glasses.

And the person who came in with him was an aunt, who should be over [-] years old, but she is still in a young state of improvement. I don't know what happened when the two came in together.

"Which of you wants to audition?"

Zeng Yuanjiang looked at the two of them and asked.

"he!"

The aunt shook the man next to her, "He's my son, he's here to audition."

"Oh!"

Everyone understood at once, it turned out that it was the son who came to the audition and brought his mother, which is really weird.

Li Zhifan glanced at the people in the program group. The director over there nodded to Li Zhifan frequently, as if hinting that Li Zhifan didn't understand much, but he didn't care. Anyway, the person had already entered, so he still had to ask a few questions according to the procedure, so he said: "Yes. Have you ever acted?"

"no!"

The man didn't speak, but her mother said for him, "Director, don't worry, my son is very obedient, acting. Although he has no experience in this field, he can learn from it!"

"Uh……"

Li Zhifan was speechless, leaned back on the chair with folded arms, and stopped talking.

Zeng Yuanjiang stepped forward and looked at the woman with a smile: "Eldest sister, your son has no experience in this field, so we are in a difficult situation! How about..."

"Hey! Don't just refuse!"

The woman immediately said, "If you don't have sexual experience, you can't ask for a wife? Besides, it's just a job. If he has experience, I don't need to bring him here!"

"Uh!"

The four of them were dumbfounded again, and Zeng Yuanjiang was also speechless. He spread his hands at Li Zhifan, not knowing what to do.

Liao Feng replaced Zeng Yuanjiang, and asked: "This mother, since your son is here to cast the role, can you let him speak for himself? Why don't you speak for him!"

"He doesn't need to say anything!"

However, the woman waved her hand and said, "This child has listened to me since he was a child, and he is used to it. I say whatever I say, and I give him advice on everything big and small. Besides, he doesn't like to talk, especially with strangers." Open your mouth, don't force him, just tell me anything."

The four gasped and hid back in fright.

How come we forced him?
Even if it's Ma Bao, it's not like this, right?

At this level, you should see a doctor, and you shouldn't be filming.

"Auntie, I'm sorry, we don't have a suitable role for your child!"

Li Zhifan breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly, "But I know the artist director of TVB. I'll give you a business card. You can go find him. If your child likes acting, you can let him start acting in TV dramas first."

"Huh? TVB?"

The woman hesitated, "But TVB's salary is very low. I heard that they often deduct artist's salary and don't even give them living expenses. Hey, forget it. Since it's recommended by a big director, I'll take him to try it." Let's go! Where's the business card?"

The face of the program director at the side turned green. Seeing Li Zhifan's smug eyes, he couldn't help but surrender.

However, Zeng Yuanjiang actually copied the phone number of the TVB artist director to this mother. I am afraid that she will suffer from it soon. I just don’t know if this artist director has Li Zhifan to talk to...
