Chapter 459 Big Name and Condor Shooting

At the beginning Zhang Yimou warned Zhang Wuyi not to make TV dramas, saying that her path should be in movies, and acting in TV dramas would be ruined.

And these words come from the fact that Zhang Jizhong asked her to play "Swordsman", and even offered 200 million yuan.

Of course Zhang Wuyi was moved. After all, she hadn't graduated yet when she was cast for this drama in her last life.

What's more, in 00, not to mention her a student, even the big names, few people had such a high salary.

But when Zhang Yimou found out, he scolded Zhang Ziyi, saying that she would be abolished after filming!

However, Zhang Yimou was not just talking about it. In order to make up for her, he went to Ang Lee and introduced Zhang Wuyi to film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Not only is the popularity added to the popularity, but she has also gained a certain reputation internationally through Yu Jiaolong. Her oriental beauty is also favored by many people, and many directors have seen her plasticity.

Facts have proved that Zhang Yimou did have vision at the beginning.

First of all, Yue Lingshan's role is not particularly brilliant, and second, Zhang Wuyi's talent allows her to be like a fish in water in movies, and she has even won an international title.

After all, not everyone is a weekly newsletter, who can eat all TV dramas and movies.

And even for Zhou Xun, aside from her acting skills, when it comes to brand influence, she is indeed slightly inferior to Zhang in this regard.

However, the international brands endorsed by Zhou Xun also include Chanel and Lanzi, but Zhang Wuyi, from Coca-Cola to VISA credit card, to Dior, Mercedes-Benz, Armani and so on.

Regardless of the audience or the brand, apart from good looks and fame, resumes are also valued.

It’s not that which one is bad, but that you have played some roles, and you convey such an image to the outside world, such as Song Dandan and Lao Zhao. The products are also obvious to all.

With such a screen image and the endorsement of these categories, even if there are foreign big names who are keen on their fame, they would not dare to ask them to endorse them.

It’s like selling Tesla on Pinxixi. Although it has repeatedly declared that it is a genuine product, the public is still skeptical, but if it is JD.com or Tmall, it will probably be much better.

The past impression is stereotyped by the public, and it is difficult to change it.

However, Ning Yuan himself has no such worries. First, he knows the future direction, and second, his own company is thriving. Even if it is a high-end product, as a boss-level business elite, it can fit the image.

And now, there are awards from the Berlin Theater Festival—whether from China or internationally, theater performances are all high-end.

Now that Ningyuan's company has been exposed at the press conference, it has also spread abroad. After these two days of flocking, a big name came to the front.

Prada!

The Chinese translation is Prada.

In Ning Yuan's impression, it seems that this brand is very interested in the Chinese market. It first signed a contract with Takeshi Kaneshiro in 97 and endorsed men's clothing for spring and summer in 98.

Takeshi Kaneshiro, who was only 24 years old at the time, can be said to be his most popular period. After cooperating with Wong Kar-wai in "Chungking Forest" and "Fallen Angels", he appeared in many movies and TV series, and released two albums. In 98, it began to enter the neon country market.

Although he is young, Takeshi Kaneshiro has enough good works, and his temperament and appearance are not to mention, which is comparable to the current Ning Yuan.

Even now, Takeshi Kaneshiro is still the dream lover of many people. In the last Neon Country voting, his ranking was slightly higher than that of Ning Yuan. After all, he became famous earlier and had more works.

At that time, Takeshi Kaneshiro did not have the title of official spokesperson like he does now, but in that era, being able to appear in luxury advertisements was already a very rare thing.

At that time, brand awareness, especially in China, was very rare for artists to appear in the shots. Most of the advertising blockbusters were supermodels as the protagonists, and many of them were European and American models.

Not to mention, the Huaxia people bought it even more——

It was an era when farts were more fragrant abroad. It is not surprising that there is such a common understanding. When China's economy rises, more and more people go abroad, and there is an Internet that can publish at any time, so they will no longer be fooled by some public knowledge. It was discovered that the moon abroad is not much rounder than that in China, and this situation gradually changed.

At this time, even Ning Yuan couldn't change his mind.

After Takeshi Kaneshiro, Geng Le also endorsed Prada. Although he and Xia Yu both made their debut through "Sunny Day", there is a big difference between winning an award and not winning an award, male number one and male number two.

In fact, there are quite a few of his works, but most of them have not made any splashes, and in terms of movies, they are basically literary films, so naturally they don't have much audience popularity.

However, his "marginal figure" temperament, which is free from the camera, gives people a high-level sense of mystery, which is naturally favored by big names.

Many great directors like to ask him to test the waters for their female works, not to mention Jiang Wen's "Sunshine", and Guan Hu's "Hair Is Messed", Huo Jianqi's "Winner", Zhang Yibai's "Forward to Spring" Subway" and so on.

Even the fellow from Ningyuan, Yang Chao, who won the Berlin Silver Bear Award with "The Picture of the Yangtze River", his female work "Journey" still has Geng Le as the leading actor-before this film, although Yang Chao directed A few films, but either short films or documentaries, commercials, or the executive director of a TV series.

And "Journey" is the first independent film directed by Yang Chao in the true sense.

Maybe it's this kind of self-confidence that is favored, Geng Le is very Buddhist, Buddhist... the endorsement came, and it was an international big name.

At this time, Geng Le hadn't gotten up yet, so Ning Yuan should be regarded as the second Chinese star Prada sought, and even in a sense, the first real Chinese star.

Although Takeshi Kaneshiro is an actor in Chinese films, he is from Neon after all.

When they heard the news, the company's new employees were the first to anoint the nest.

The old employees are okay, after all, they have been vaccinated for the grand prize of the Berlin Theater Festival, which is more difficult than this kind of endorsement.

After signing the contract and filming, Ning Yuan was exhausted.

But after the news spread, the media flocked again, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. After all, it was of great significance.

Because at this time, no mainland star has ever received an international endorsement, let alone such a luxury.

Now that Ning Yuan has the task of endorsement, it is difficult for him to refuse, not to mention that these media are really thieves, and they specially choose the shooting location to wait.

Even Ning Yuan doubted whether the news was released by the brand.

But since he came to shoot, he would not arrange other things. He also had the time to deal with the media, and everyone returned satisfied.

Within a few days, the advertisements began to roll out, and Ning Yuan's stern face in the window made countless women unable to move.

Even Jiang Youyou, who passed by occasionally, was stunned for a moment, and then curled his lips: "Know how to be handsome, hmph!"

Afterwards, she took out her mobile phone and sent Ning Yuan a text message: "I saw your endorsement, it was a good shot."

"You're welcome, how about I send you one back?"

"Thank you, you are endorsing men's clothing, so give it to my dad."

After posting this, Jiang Youyou sent another one: "Are you ready, what can you leave?"

"Okay, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Okay, call me when you get there."

……

Before going to Xiangjiang, Zhang Jizhong came to Ning Yuan again.

"I have decided that the next film will be "Legend of the Condor Heroes"."

"Don't decide, it's really good if Mr. Jin says yes."

"He watched our film and was quite satisfied, so I took the opportunity to mention it, and he didn't object, so he said that after the casting, I would show him the audition video."

"That should be fine."

"Of course there is a problem. You have to play Guo Jing."

"Have you ever seen such a handsome Guo Jing?"

"Nonsense, I haven't seen a woman like you before. You, a capricious enchantress, act casually. You don't act like anything. I believe you."

"You don't need to talk about everything."

"Don't, don't, I was wrong, you are the most dedicated actor, there is no scene that you can't do, only if you are willing, so, little ancestor, are you willing?"

"Well... It can be arranged for the time being, but I won't know for sure when the time comes. If there is no particularly important delay, I promise you."

"I can wait."

Ning Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he was indeed interested in Zhang Jizhong's "Shooting the Condors", and he was also worried that Li Yapeng would lower his reputation.

Li Yapeng's Condor Shooting is indeed hard to describe. He and Zhou Xun are indeed superb in acting, but in terms of image and performance, Ning Yuan feels that Li Yapeng played Guo Jing a bit silly.

In fact, Guo Jing is not stupid, but rather simple and honest, even if you call him stupid, but if you rely on 'stupid', the audience, especially those who are familiar with the original work, cannot accept it.

In addition, Zhou Xun's Huang Rong, although her acting is really good, but her original voice made Ning Yuan play every minute.

When watching it, Ning Yuan was thinking, Miss, can't you find a dubbing voice?
In terms of image alone, Ning Yuan's favorite is not Weng Meiling's version in 83 that many people are keen on, but Zhu Yin. She portrays the eccentric and intelligent Huang Rong in a captivating way.

This is also related to the audience. People like Ning Yuan in 1980 watched the 94 version for the first time, while those born in the 83s and [-]s watched the [-] version.

In fact, Weng Na's version is more about the role of feelings.

Is she pretty?It doesn’t count, many people think it’s good, but it just stays in the impression, if they are asked to watch it again now, they may not be able to stick to it.

This is similar to the 97 version of Tianlong Babu, which is popular on the Internet. Many people stay in the addition of feelings, but in fact, Hu Jun's Xiao Daxia, Xu Zhu's ugliness, romantic Duan Yu, and all kinds of beauties and scenery, Which one does not go beyond version 97.

How does Fan Shaohuang's Xu Zhu conform to the image of "ugly appearance, thick eyebrows, big eyes, upturned nostrils, protruding ears, and thick lips"?

Probably only the mediocre Gu Tianle can compare.

As for the plot, Hu Jun's version is not inferior. Ning Yuan personally feels that Tianlong in the 03 version is the pinnacle of Zhang Jizhong, and he began to decline after that.

　thanks for your support.
