Entertainment Empire

A few days later.

As soon as Luo Xun arrived in Xiangjiang, he held a start-up ceremony with the team, went through the process of offering incense and worshiping gods, and was interviewed by reporters before he had time to greet the other actors on the set.

"Hello, Wu Jing."

As a mainland actor working hard in Xiangjiang, how could Wu Jing not know Luo Xun, so before Luo Xun took the initiative, Wu Jing smiled and extended his hand to Luo Xun.

"Hello, Luo Xun."

Luo Xun responded to the other party's greeting enthusiastically, and then made contact with other members of the crew. It is worth mentioning that although the film the crew is planning to shoot is indeed "Slaying the Wolf 2", some actors in the crew It's not the original version. This may be related to the fact that the timeline has been pushed forward many years. After all, Gu Tianle currently plays more protagonists, and he is not that old yet.

And in the original version.

The boss of the smuggling group in "Slaying the Wolf 2" is played by Louis Koo, and the eldest brother of the protagonist Wu Jing is played by Yam Dahua. Although the two characters who play these two roles in this life are considered familiar faces in Hong Kong, they are not. Ren Dahua and Gu Tianle are happy...

After a round of contact.

Luo Xun returned to his seat and said with a smile to Wu Jing on the side: "Brother Jing, please take care of me. This is my first time filming this kind of action movie with hard bridges and hard horses. I may not understand it very well."

"It's easy to talk about."

Wu Jing's baby-faced smile makes people feel no distance. In the early days, because of his baby-face, he was evaluated by some newspapers in Hong Kong as: This is the only achievement he has achieved in this life.

But Luo Xun knew that the man in front of him would be the top box office figure in Chinese movies in the future.

Wu Jing also had a bad impression of Luo Xun.

An artist with excellent temperament, there is no trace of the arrogance of a big-name actor - because Wu Jing is a mainland actor, he recognizes Luo Xun's status, even though Luo Xun is actually still a newcomer in the film industry.

But let's be honest.

Wu Jing was also worried about Luo Xun in his heart, because he knew how hard it would be for Luo Xun to play the role of Luo Xun in "Slaying the Wolf 2". Even some actors who came from action movies and had to practice in kung fu suits since they were young could not bear it. Luo Xun Can someone like Xun, who has little kung fu foundation, really be able to withstand it?

This is a kind of concern.

After all, Wu Jing is from the Mainland, so he has a natural affinity for Mainland artists. It is not easy for him to work hard in Xiangjiang. In the classic street fight in the first part of "Slaying the Wolf", he and Zhenzi were almost beaten in the arm. Regardless, this is how difficult it is for mainland actors to work in Hong Kong, but that fight scene has indeed become one of Wu Jing's more representative fight scenes.

Now the daughter-in-law has become a mother-in-law.

In the second film "Slaying the Wolf", Wu Jing replaced Donnie Yen as the male lead, which was a blessing in disguise. He took care of Luo Xun as much as he could, but after all, this is a film mainly made by people from Hong Kong, so his ability is very good. limited.

"Then you get busy first."

Luo Xun said with a smile.

His part is going to be filmed in Thailand, and now he is just an advanced member of the crew. Although Luo Xunda can wait until the crew goes to Thailand and his film starts filming before joining the crew, but he feels that as a junior in the film industry, he still has to have a good attitude. , otherwise the journey would not be long, and now that I am familiar with the actors, there will be much less resistance when filming the co-operation scenes later.

"OK."

Wu Jing started putting on makeup.

He is the protagonist, and he also has a big role in Xiangjiang. However, Thai actor Tony Jaa has not yet joined the cast. He is a foreigner after all, and he will have to wait for the crew to kill him before he will officially join the filming.

…

Filming soon began.

Luo Xun didn't pay much attention to the actors' performances, but observed the director's filming. The director of "Slaying the Wolf 2" was Zheng Baorui just like in his previous life. Zheng Baorui was considered a relatively capable director among Chinese directors. Luo Xun had to learn more. It doesn't hurt. Although Director Zheng at this period did not have the same ability as in the later period, he was not far behind. After all, it is not easy for directors who can become such a big name in the future.

between viewings.

Luo Xun would occasionally go to a deserted place, light a cigarette for himself, and continue to silently observe Zheng Baorui directing a play in the smoke. The biggest difference between him and a year ago was that a year ago he watched other people direct a play. , he could only understand half of it, but now when he watched someone else direct a play, he could easily figure out the director's intentions, understand why the director made such a request, and understand what effect the other party wanted...

After all, there is progress.

A year of hard work is not in vain.

When he smoked his third cigarette, Wu Jing finished filming his part, ran over to Luo Xun and said, "Have a cigarette, brother."

"good."

Luo Xun smiled and handed Wu Jing a cigarette, and lit it with a lighter. As the two puffed away, Wu Jing said with a smile, "Do you also like smoking?"

"That's not true."

Luo Xundao: "My character needs to smoke, so I familiarize myself with it in advance to avoid not having smoked for too long and becoming rusty."

Luo Xun has no addiction to smoking.

But when making movies, there are always some characters who are required to smoke. Faced with this situation, Luo Xun will do it. Before filming "Kung Fu", Luo Xun also smoked for two months to play Chen Ge...

"That's it."

Wu Jing was stunned for a moment, and then smiled. He didn't feel how dedicated the other party was because of this. In the eyes of a truly dedicated actor, this can only be regarded as a routine operation, especially since the current entertainment industry is not as impetuous as it will be in the future. Most people are still down-to-earth when filming.

"Isn't it easy to film in Xiangjiang?"

When men smoke together, they seem to be able to talk about some deep topics. Luo Xun thought about some news he had read in his previous life and some situations he had personally experienced, and spoke.

He had not forgotten...

When he was filming "Kung Fu" before, he was excluded because of his identity as a mainlander. Wu Jing has been in Hong Kong for so many years, how could he not encounter such things?

It's just that he can handle things.

Moreover, Wu Jing did gain a lot from Hong Kong movies in the early days, so he rarely complained about Hong Kong movies. The name of the Oriental Hollywood once attracted many people.

"You know."

Wu Jing blinked: "But you, who have not made many movies, dared to take "SPL 2". I don't believe you don't know the hard work."

"I like challenges."

Luo Xun said: "Different roles, different types of plays, different styles. I can act in dramas, but I can also act in idol dramas. I can play martial arts movies with wires, and of course I have to try this kind of hard-core action movies..."

Wu Jing nodded thoughtfully.

No wonder after the release of "Kung Fu", the mainland media commented that Luo Xun is the hope of mainland filmmakers. At that time, I was a little dissatisfied because I didn't play the leading role, but now it seems that Luo Xun's success is definitely not accidental -

No one's success is accidental.
