China Entertainment 2000

"Although I really want to, I probably don't have time, Uncle Long. I'm still very busy after returning to China." Zhou Yi, who was determined to refuse, decisively pulled Qian Jiang out to block the gun.

"Are you really not thinking about it? Ayi, Disney can give you a very high remuneration. I'll help you fight for it. Six million US dollars is very possible." Chenglong was a little surprised.

You must know that this is Disney, a real giant.

Zhou Yi has already become acquainted with Disney because of "Pirates of the Caribbean". Wouldn't it be better to do it again?

"Forget it, let me tell you the truth, Uncle Long.

"You don't know, Disney has too many rules, especially for such a big production..." Zhou Yi complained about the shortcomings of these large companies, and complained about a lot of conditions that producer Jerry had put forward for him.

He was able to win "Pirates of the Caribbean" because the original soundtrack was excellent, but the soundtrack for "Eighty Days Around the World" was not excellent. With his current status, he would be held down to the ground by Disney and tortured repeatedly.

I don’t know if Disney will be satisfied with other songs. If not, it will have to be changed over and over again.

He doesn't want to work overtime, it's not worth it.

"Forget it, I won't take it anymore just to be clean. As you know, I'm not short of money."

Wu Yanzhu, who was waiting quietly by the side, almost spit out the champagne in his mouth——

Damn this little money!

Even six million US dollars - oh, he seems to be really not short of it...

If you think carefully about this person's horrific record, I'm afraid the income from the album's copyright licensing is more than this amount...

Chenglong, who knew how insistent Disney was on its dominance, understood Zhou Yi's sincere expression of bitterness.

With Zhou Yi's character, it is normal for him to be unwilling to be a doormat again after being angry once.

"In that case, are you interested in acting? I will return to China to make a new film, called "New Police Story"." When it came to the issue of dominance, Chenglong, who understood Zhou Yi's concerns, turned to Another thing.

In terms of importance, "New Police Story" is his highlight next year.

Because many people asked him to return to Hong Kong to shoot this, and he himself wanted to consolidate his domestic base, so he naturally agreed after some negotiations.

To this end, he is also preparing to jointly open a new company in Hong Kong with Yinghuang's boss Yang in two or three months. The first movie to be released by the new company will be "New Police Story".

That's why he wanted to invite Zhou Yi.

"No, isn't my acting on the big screen purely funny?"

Zhou Yi waved his hand and refused: "I'd better not go up and be embarrassed."

"I think your performance in the musical movie "In the Name of the Father" was okay, wasn't it?" Chenglong had obviously done his homework.

"That was caused by Jiang Wen's torture. I can't bear this pain anymore."

Zhou Yi has a very clear understanding of his own hard work.

Although Chenglong took the initiative to help him enter the European and American markets, he still accepted the favor when he didn't have any English skills. But he really doesn't want to touch acting, especially if it's a Hong Kong movie that requires a lot of intensity.

It's okay to make a guest appearance as a passerby and show up as an Easter egg.

For example, just appear under your real name and hold a concert in Hong Kong.

The Wu Yan Group, which is still a little transparent at the moment, makes me feel more uncomfortable the more I hear about it...

Is this how Zhou Yi is treated?

I think he won the villain role of Azu in "New Police Story" because he signed a contract with Chenglong's company and has practiced acting for several years. Zhou Yi Zhenger, who has no big screen experience, can choose roles at will. freedom of.

He had no doubt that if Zhou Yi took a fancy to his Azu, Chenglong would immediately offer the contract.

Although Chenglong was unwilling to do so, because he knew Zhou Yi's character very well, he put the topic down for the time being and started talking about romance again.

In Hollywood, Lao Sepi, who is also very popular with actresses, is very experienced in judging and commenting.

Until the banquet was over, Chenglong returned to the hotel where he was staying with the only regret in his heart and met his agent——

"How about it?"

"It doesn't work, A Yi really doesn't want to act, it's not fake.

"If we want to ask him to show up to add more gimmicks, I'm afraid the only way is to make a guest appearance as a passerby. But then we have to redesign a passerby role that can make people shine. Can this drama still add it?"

Chenglong is still very responsible for his works that have returned to the domestic market after many years. The reason why I strongly want to invite Zhou Yi is because Zhou Yi's domestic box office appeal has been proved through "Hero".

He can really expand the box office base.

But after the so-called "good songs but bad movies" public opinion, if Zhou Yi is invited to write songs alone, it will lose its appeal to fans.

After hearing Chenglong explain everything, his agent suddenly slapped his thigh - "No, don't we just have a character who can be used as an Easter egg? That truck driver."

At the end of the script of "New Police Story", in order to reflect a sense of fate - or drama, the screenwriter arranged a convenience store robbery scene -

The father of the second male lead was hit and killed by a large truck because he stole bread for his children.

A very simple play.

If the father of the second male lead still needs some acting skills, then the truck driver, whose face is not even shown in the script, is really just a passerby and does not need any acting skills at all.

"Zhou Yi is still a law student. If he plays a cameo role in a movie, it will create more dramatic conflict."

"...hiss."

Cheng Long thought about it carefully. It seems to make sense.

But...

"But isn't this time a little short? Zhou Yi is such a big star..." The agent who realized it later was a little lacking in confidence.

Even if Zhou Yi himself is willing, Warner is unlikely to let him go unless Zhou Yi himself really expresses a very strong desire.

Then the question is, how to make Zhou Yi determined to come and play a cameo?

Suddenly, Cheng Long thought of some news in the past and some comments about Zhou Yi.

Three minutes later, it was already morning in the capital.

Jiang Wen, who was having dinner, received a call from Cheng Long. The other party invited him to play a cameo in a new movie next year - a father of a small figure who was hit by a car and died because he tried to grab food for his child.

"Okay, no problem, it's a piece of cake."

Jiang Wen laughed heartily.

Anyway, he had nothing to do and was bored. Going to help and play a cameo in a movie was something he was familiar with.

"Chenglong's new movie? You want to make a cameo?"

At home, Jiang Wu, who came to see his brother, was surprised when he heard about this: "Isn't he in Hollywood?"

"There is a shortage of talent in Hong Kong, so we just asked him to come back to calm the situation. The company has already made plans."

Jiang Wen, who was cracking melon seeds, smiled and said nonchalantly: "It's just a small role of a few minutes. It's a bit boring to stay at home for so long. I'll just take it as a way to relax when the time comes."

He still likes the set very much.

Just take it as a change of mood.

Thirteen minutes later, in New York, Zhou Yi received a call from Chenglong after the celebration banquet.

"Hello?"

After returning to the hotel suite, the slightly tipsy Zhou Yi took off his coat with Scarlett's help: "What did you say?! A cameo as a truck driver, opposite Jiang Wen???"

Scarlett Johansson, who was about to fill the bathtub, was attracted by Zhou Yi's suddenly high tone. When she looked at him, the latter sat up straight from the sofa--

"No problem! I can go! I can even hit him with my own truck!"
