The gold broker of Xiao Xianrou(17)(1/2)
Fang Zhenxuan has been busy and has not had much rest since his debut, but when he heard Chu Xiang say he wanted to grab Xia Ze's good resources, he immediately became full of fighting spirit and could not feel any fatigue at all.
Chu Xiang is still very confident in grabbing resources. Their weakness is very obvious, that is, Fang Zhenxuan is not as popular as Xia Ze. But they have an advantage that Xia Ze does not have, that is, the male protagonist of this drama is a lawyer, and Fang Zhenxuan's professionalism and acting skills are much better than Xia Ze.
Choosing traffic or acting skills is a matter that needs to be considered for directors, producers and investors. The most important thing is that Hong Yao Entertainment plans to invest, and after investment, it will naturally make Xia Ze the male lead. Xia Ze intends to enhance his strength and produce his representative work. Hong Yao will definitely support it and put a layer of gold on this money tree.
Their talks were almost done. Chu Xiang communicated with President Liang overnight and convinced him. He made an appointment for a dinner the next day and asked President Liang to accompany them to meet the director, producer and screenwriter.
At the dinner table, Mr. Liang said that Xingchen Entertainment was willing to invest 30 million, and Chu Xiang also stated that she would personally add 30 million. In this way, their investment was already higher than the price given by Hong Yao. In addition to the other two designated investors, the play has already received an investment of 80 million, so there is no need to find anyone else to invest!
This is just a comedy film, mainly about a genius lawyer who accidentally misses his lawyer's license and becomes a private detective. Then he accidentally saves a little girl on the journey, and gets involved in a big case. Finally, he uses high IQ and professional acumen to solve the case.
There is no need for major productions or special post-production in the plot. The ones made in the 80 million yuan are definitely carefully produced films.
While they were considering it, Chu Xiang laughed and said, "In fact, the investment is not to compare who has more money and engage in capitalism. It is because Mr. Liang and I are very optimistic about this project, and also very optimistic about Zhenxuan's acting skills and audience support."
Mr. Liang and several others clinked, and said with a smile: "Chu Xiang is right. Zhenxuan is an excellent child in all aspects. The directors, actors and producers he has worked with all praise him."
Fang Zhenxuan got up and poured wine for everyone, picked up the wine glass and said humbly: "Everyone here is my senior. I know very little about it. I only know how to walk steadily with one step at a time. The role of this drama is a lawyer, which happens to be my major and dream, so I don't want to miss it. I beg a few seniors to give me an audition."
Chu Xiang stood up and patted Zhenxuan on the shoulder below, "You may not know Zhenxuan very much, so why don't you let him try a scene if you have time another day? You have to read the kung fu to know, right? Besides, I learned that there is a little girl in the script who has always followed the protagonist. Coincidentally, our Zhenxuan has a 5-year-old niece who is beautiful and cute. She has filmed two scenes and has a very good relationship with Zhenxuan. If they are the two of them, just talk about the tacit understanding and cooperation between the two characters, you don't have to worry about it."
The screenwriter's eyes lit up and he couldn't help asking: "Mr. Fang's niece can act, too?"
Fang Zhenxuan nodded, "She likes acting very much and has a good talent. We let her act twice in her studies. If she has the chance to be on the big screen, she will definitely be very happy."
The screenwriter carefully crafted her script. I don’t know how many times she polished it. All the plots were well known, and even the plots that were not written into the script were in her mind. She fell on Chu Xiang’s delicate face. Thinking of Chu Xiang’s strong aura that was calm and calm since she appeared, her heart beat faster. She asked tentatively: “Can Miss Chu act? There is a character in the script…it can play the finishing touch, but I never thought that anyone would play it properly, so I removed this role. Today I saw Miss Chu, and I really felt that it was very suitable in all aspects. It was just a guest appearance, two or three shots, how about it?”
Chu Xiang was stunned for a moment and soon laughed, "The honor is so great, why not let's take the child to try the mirror together another day?"
The audition was decided like this, and the investment amount had already beaten Hong Yao. Now Fang Zhenxuan, Xinxin and Chu Xiang were bound to star. If the audition effect was good, then their winning side would be several times more than it would be!
When Xia Ze heard about this news, he was in a very bad mood. He was filming in the crew of "Reunion" and was also the second male lead. He completely expected that during the winter vacation, he and Fang Zhenxuan would be pulled out to compare again.
But he didn't expect Fang Zhenxuan to compete with him for the New Year's Eve "Journal of Journey". He finally chose this drama, thinking that comedy films do not require advanced acting skills, and the roles are pleasing and the plot is interesting, which is likely to make him a traffic idol transform successfully. Now Fang Zhenxuan is here to grab it again.
Xia Ze called the company several times, and the company also talked with the film crew. Even if the investment amount is increased, the film crew hopes to see the audition before making a decision. After all, he can invest more, and Chu Xiang is not short of money. With the investment amount similar, why not choose a better acting skill? Even if Xia Ze has a high traffic, this traffic idol has never held a precedent for box office. Isn’t you betting on traffic?
In the end, Hong Yao only won a chance to audition for Xia Ze, and compete fairly. If his acting skills are excellent and the director and screenwriter think he is more suitable, then choose him.
What was a sure thing was to be sure, but Fang Zhenxuan made a striking attack and turned into an audition. Xia Ze was so angry that he kicked over the chair in the crew lounge!
This time, Chu Xiang did not give him a chance to tamper with the opportunity to release the rumors about the two competing roles.
Fang Zhenxuan competed for another role with Xia Ze, and was the male lead in a movie. Everyone's first reaction when they saw the news was that Fang Zhenxuan could play the male lead in the movie? He could all be on par with Xia Ze? Is he so popular?
Immediately afterwards, someone thought that Fang Zhenxuan's acting skills beat Xia Ze. If you want to watch a good movie, you should definitely support Fang Zhenxuan to win!
Previously, the video of Fang Zhenxuan and Xia Ze auditioning for "Turn" was reposted in various ways. This video does not require research. Anyone with eyes can see that Fang Zhenxuan's acting skills are better than Xia Ze, and passers-by hope that Fang Zhenxuan can star in this movie.
Xia Ze's fans were so angry that they scolded Fang Zhenxuan for flirting with him. A little star who had only been in the industry for half a year was on the hot search several times and didn't know what his surname was. He was addicted to grab Xia Ze's resources? Who did he think he was?!
Xia Ze's fans are used to being flamboyant and were once called the invincible player in the entertainment industry. Many of them were sued by Chu Xiang before, but they were not prepared for it. Before they left, major fans called on fans to disperse and seriously ordered them not to swear pictures, so they would not use dirty words to say truthfully, accusing Fang Zhenxuan of being the top actor and taking advantage of Xia Ze's popularity, and questioning whether Fang Zhenxuan is qualified to play the male lead in the New Year film.
Xia Ze's fans were crazy about the screen. Relying on the large number of people, they almost occupied Fang Zhenxuan's super words. When they opened the super words, they were all questioning posts, which was very ugly. Fang Zhenxuan's fans discussed and quickly controlled the comments, pointing out that there were also those who chose the protagonists of the movie. How to cast the role is the matter of the investor and the director. There was no first come and then come in the filming, and there was no problem with you pushing me to give in. There was no problem with reasonable fair competition.
Xia Ze's fans threatened to boycott "Journey Detective", accusing "Journey Detective" of not making good movies, bowed to the investors, accusing Xingchen and Chu Xiang of relying on the investment of the private party, and intercepting Xia Ze's resources.
Fang Zhenxuan's fans said in a humble manner that the industry competes, and those who are capable are at the top. If you really don't want the investors to intervene, then you should decide the winner based on your acting skills. Isn't that the winner more obvious?
The fans of Xia Ze and Fang Zhenxuan can be said to have completely met. Although Fang Zhenxuan's number of fans is not as large as Xia Ze, his fans are united and extremely rational under the leadership of the legal students. He does not do stupid things or speaks stupid words. The comment copywriting is all concise and clear to point out the other party's loopholes and expresses his own attitude.
In this comparison, Fang Zhenxuan's fans were not at a disadvantage, but instead made Xia Ze's fans seem unreasonable. What exactly do they do? The entertainment industry resources must be picked by Xia Ze? He can pick the remaining talents for others? Xia Ze has been popular for so many years, but he doesn't believe that he has never intercepted others. Why can't he be intercepted now? Fang Zhenxuan's acting skills are better than him and his investment is in place. Why can't he win?
Everyone was suddenly shocked as they were arguing. The investor and Chu Xiang were also there? I don’t know where to attack the insider revealed that Chu Xiang personally invested 30 million yuan, and this is the real financial boss!
Xia Ze's fans said sarcastically: [Fang Zhenxuan was kept by Chu Xiang! Haha, the old woman paid so much money, I wish you were dumped as soon as possible!]
Chu Xiang's fans were immediately dissatisfied: [Who did the old woman say? Show your photos out and see. It's so beautiful that Sister Xiang, my surname is yours! My Sister Xiang is just as much money as she wants. If you have the ability, you can crowdfund the investment for Xia Ze? If you can't raise it, don't bb!]
Fang Zhenxuan's fans were also very angry: [When will they be scolded by their acting skills and support from the company and agent? Why do you want to dominate the world with bubble traffic? Then you have to see if the market is eating this way. If you ignore it, you will spread rumors and follow your idol. I suggest you read more and learn more from your idol.]
The CP fans are even more angry: [My two treasures are true love! The golden boy and jade girl are born with a couple. Is it okay to beat your family? To be honest, what kind of girlfriend will your Xia Ze find? Please imagine yourself. Can it be better than my Xiangxiang? The one who flirts first! Don’t say that we are disrespectful to our seniors, you are not worthy of representing Xia Ze. We are all fighting against you, you are the brainless!]
The fans on their side fought back with a tough stubbornness and showed that they were not Xia Ze's fans, and they did not mean to be disrespectful to their seniors at all. But at the same time, in response, they also found all the gossips that Xia Ze had in his eight years of debut.
The girlfriend is rumored to be a big shot, she is stupid when recording a show, scolds her fans for being low in quality, etc. They don’t say much, and after forwarding these gossips, they are all "real", which makes people want to say that they can’t spread rumors. After all, they are not posted by them, and they are just expressing doubts.
For a moment, Xia Ze's black material was flying all over the sky, and it was not clear whether it was true or not. Anyway, the impression of passers-by was completely bad. Xia Ze's fans also wanted to blackmail Fang Zhenxuan, but Fang Zhenxuan had just debuted for half a year and was busy working all day. There was no idea that if they spread rumors, Chu Xiang's lawyer's letter and legal publicity report from the Legal Corps were waiting, and they dare not talk nonsense.
The situation gradually changed, and the fan dispute between Fang Zhenxuan and Xia Ze further confirmed that traffic is no longer the king. Whether it is a star or a fan, only those with strength, connotation and quality can withstand the blows of wind and rain and persevere until victory, otherwise it will only disperse like a bubble when it blows.
Because it involves a dispute between the powerful and the traffic faction, this matter has been paid attention to by many people in the industry, and some have called to ask about the specific inside story. When they heard that Fang Zhenxuan was going to take his agent and niece to film with his niece, they felt that it was incomprehensible. Generally, it was a disadvantage to bring people into the group, right? Why did he become an advantage? Can Chu Xiang and Xinxin give him extra points?
With such attention, "Journey Detective" invited Fang Zhenxuan and Xia Ze to audition. Fang Zhenxuan hugged Xinxin all the way and walked beside Chu Xiang. Before entering the room, he still reminded Xinxin a little uneasy, "Don't run around and know? Don't talk to people you don't know. Some people look good, but they may be bad people."
Xinxin poked his face with a smile, "Uncle, we are all beautiful, we are all good people."
Sister Wen smiled gently beside her and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fang, I will be optimistic about Xinxin."
Fang Zhenxuan nodded, "Well, please trouble you."
Sister Wen, a highly educated nanny, is indeed very reliable. She has taken good care of Xinxin for so long and has never made any mistakes. Fang Zhenxuan felt much more relieved when she thought that she would always follow Xinxin.
The audition was in the hotel suite. After several people entered the door, they saw that Xia Ze and his agent had arrived. Fang Zhenxuan saw Xia Ze's eyes flashing and he instantly went to see Xinxin's expression.
Xinxin just looked at the people in the room curiously, then hugged Fang Zhenxuan's neck and whispered in his ear: "Uncle, is the bad guy you are talking about in that white dress? I won't talk to him!"
Fang Zhenxuan smiled, "Xinxin, be nice, follow Sister Wen, and perform well later." After that, he walked up to say hello to Chu Xiang.
This was the first time Xia Ze saw Fang Zhenxuan. He looked at Fang Zhenxuan carefully and thought about whether they had celebrated the festival or met. From this, he seemed to be familiar, but he still had no impression.
He looked at Chu Xiang again, and he had no impression of this woman who was Chen Lifeng's agent. He and Chen Lifeng did not go the same route, nor did they cooperate, and it was impossible to make enemies.
He saw Xinxin again in a blink of an eye. Xinxin was indeed cute, which made him feel very friendly, but he still had no impression. He didn't know these people at all, so why did Fang Zhenxuan rob him of resources twice in a row? It was really just because they had similar images?
The casting storm was quite a big deal, and the director and producer didn't talk nonsense, so they gave them the same two clips for audition.
A clip shows the male protagonist and the little girl trapped in the same room, and the gangster will arrive immediately. The male protagonist calmly sets up a trap step by step, and then leads the little girl to leave calmly.
Another clip is at the end of the film. The male protagonist leads the little girl step by step to the crowd. A woman sits there, slowly looks up and reveals her true face, and looks at the male protagonist from afar. The gunfight is about to break out. Then the female girl sees the woman happily shouts "Mom" and runs towards her, while the male protagonist and the female give up the attack.
Xia Ze politely asked Fang Zhenxuan to perform first. He also thought that his acting skills were not as good as Fang Zhenxuan, so he simply saw how Fang Zhenxuan acted, and he adapted to the situation or imitated Fang Zhenxuan's acting style.
Fang Zhenxuan squatted in front of Xinxin and told her the show. Xinxin quickly understood it and nodded to show her understanding. Fang Zhenxuan turned to look at Chu Xiang, and then took Xinxin to the center of the living room to perform.
Xinxin knocked over the oil-colored plate, Fang Zhenxuan bent down and shaved her nose with a smile, and said helplessly: "Naughty! If you do this, I will leave you alone."
Xinxin wrinkled her little nose and hugged his legs affectionately, raised her head and smiled, "You don't know, uncle is the best. You must help me find my mother!"
Fang Zhenxuan carried her into the bathroom and carefully washed her hands, "Call her brother! Wash it quickly and eat."
At this time, they heard a sound outside the door. The two of them stopped and looked at each other at the same time. Fang Zhenxuan raised his index finger to make a silence, Xinxin nodded, and then ran to the door and stuck it to the door and listened to the sound outside. He turned around and rushed to Fang Zhenxuan and made a "many people" lip shaped.
Fang Zhenxuan glanced at the decorations in the room, carried Xinxin to a window, then went back and turned off the gas stove in the kitchen, moved the microwave to the door, and almost put something explosive in. Then he calmly picked up Xinxin's back and wrapped it with bread, water and milk candy for Xinxin to carry it, tied Xinxin to her body with a rope, and made the action of crawling out of the window.
"Car. Act very well!" The director nodded with a smile, obviously very satisfied with their performance. The main reason is that the warm understanding between the two is very consistent with the positioning of this comedy movie, and it is also appropriate to highlight some warmth in the New Year holiday.
When the screenwriter watched them perform, he kept tapping on his laptop. At this moment, his eyes were bright and bright, saying to the director: "I think the little girl's character can be more three-dimensional and plump, such as a little genius. Such two geniuses, one big and one small, are more likely to collide and spark, and children can also participate in some plots that create comedy effects, which must be very interesting."
This is her new idea. She was afraid that the children would be average in acting and dare not give too many dramas, but after watching Xinxin's performance, she felt that this character could have a soul, and the drama would be more outstanding and fun.
The director nodded, asked Fang Zhenxuan and Xinxin to rest, and signaled Xia Ze to play. Xia Ze also brought a little girl here, who is the best child star Hong Yao can find.
The little girl has performed several dramas, and she has some experience in acting, but she is not nervous, so she acts as soon as she comes up. Xia Ze carried her to wash her hands, but she accidentally splashed the water into the child's eyes and hurriedly wiped it with a towel.
The director frowned slightly. Adults and children had no tacit understanding. Xia Ze obviously had never taken care of the children. If he was asked to act, it would take time to polish this aspect.
Then the little girl ran to the door to listen to the news. The director looked at Xia Ze's expression. Xia Ze was waiting for the little girl at this time, but she was really waiting, instead of observing how to escape from danger. This does not fit the character, and a calm genius cannot react at this time.
Afterwards, Xia Ze thought of Fang Zhenxuan as calm and confident, but he was a little too hard and seemed a little paralyzed. When moving the microwave and packing his schoolbag, he felt more like he was doing housework reluctantly, rather than calmly arranging everything to leave.
When Xia Ze tied the little girl to her body, she got stuck because he couldn't tie it. Fang Zhenxuan learned when he was working, and he also learned a lot of things for several years without realizing it. Xia Ze had never had any contact with her at all, so he took the child back apologetically after acting.
The director's expression was faint and nodded to prepare for the next show.
Xia Ze frowned slightly, and when he sat on the sofa, he happened to be not far from Xinxin. When he thought of Xinxin's lively acting skills, he thought that maybe he could perform better with Xinxin. He showed a gentle smile and greeted Xinxin.
"Hello, your name is Xinxin, right? You acted so well just now."
Xinxin first glanced at Fang Zhenxuan who was talking to Chu Xiang, then looked at Xia Ze politely and smiled: "Thank you, you performed well."
Xia Ze said: "Have you ever acted in any other role? Have you ever learned acting specifically? Want to enter the entertainment industry in the future?"
Xinxin thought for a while, and said politely and a little distantly: "The drama I acted has not been broadcast yet. Sister Xiangxiang said that I was born to act, but she suggested that I study hard and consider these things when I grow up. Sister Xiang said that no matter what I do when I grow up, I must be a knowledgeable person. It is always good to read more."
Xia Ze felt heartbroken inexplicably. Didn’t Fang Zhenxuan’s fans just ask him and his fans to study more? Why is Fang Zhenxuan a great academic master? When did the entertainment industry still watch this?
Before he could continue to say anything, Xinxin stood up, nodded politely and said, "Sorry, I'm going to find my uncle, goodbye."
Xia Ze watched Xinxin run to Fang Zhenxuan and grabbed Fang Zhenxuan and Chu Xiang's hands. He pulled the corners of his mouth and turned his eyes away, feeling that these three people were a little annoying and would only make things difficult for him.
The second audition began. The little girl's mother was the role the screenwriter wanted to give to Chu Xiang, of course Chu Xiang played it.
Because the little girl's mother is a little **oss-like in the movie, there were many people around her when she finally appeared. Chu Xiang simply sat on the sofa next to the director, leaned slightly, crossed her legs, and lit a cigarette.
She lowered her eyes slightly, and seemed to have no expression, but she seemed to be thinking. Although she didn't say a word, her posture, movement and expression combined had a strong aura. Even everyone present unconsciously breathed lightly, and there was an illusion that she could dominate their lives.
Fang Zhenxuan walked from a distance with Xinxin. Xinxin was wearing a hat, sunglasses and a golden wig, carefully watching if there was any danger around her. Fang Zhenxuan's expression showed a hint of heavyness, his eyes were solemn and thoughtful, and it was not the same as before.
When they stood not far away from Chu Xiang, Fang Zhenxuan held Xinxin's hand and clenched her slightly, pulling her behind her. The other hand was naturally inserted into the pocket of the windbreaker, and glanced at everyone's standing without a trace before staring at Chu Xiang and waiting for her to look up.
Chu Xiang's hand holding cigarettes blocked his side face. At this time, he slowly put down his hand, turned his face, and gently lifted his eyelids to reveal his true face.
Chu Xiang's eyes met Fang Zhenxuan. Both of them had no expressions changed, but they seemed to have some communication. Fang Zhenxuan's hand moved slightly, as if he would draw a gun at any time; Chu Xiang's hand, which was not holding a cigarette, also raised a finger from the side, as if he would take action as long as the finger fell down.
To be continued...
