Rebirth of the Thousand-Faced Movie King

"Chen Ping, more than 500 companies have recently asked you to endorse their products. Among them, there are nearly 100 from Japan, Han, Singapore, Vietnam, Malay... and other countries or regions. "

"so much."

"Fortunately, don't look at your current popularity."

Chen Ping's trip to Japan brought huge gains in Southeast Asian countries.

Not only did he make those doubts disappear with his strong gesture, but at the same time, it also brought huge benefits to Chen Ping.

The first is advertising benefits.

All the time.

What Chen Ping likes most is shooting commercials.

Shooting commercials is the most profitable and easiest thing in the world.

Chen Ping realized this before when he was only a first- and second-tier actor.

Now that he has become a top star, Chen Ping also enjoys the treatment of a top star in the pyramid.

but.

Although Chen Ping felt very happy.

But Chen Ping also knew.

It is impossible for him to have hundreds of companies come to endorse him.

On the one hand, Chen Ping doesn't have the time.

Even if we shoot one family every day, it will take a year or two to finish them all.

On the other hand, the higher one reaches the top, the more cautious Chen Ping needs to be in his endorsements.

If there is a problem with the product at any time, it is not a trivial matter.

After thinking for a while, Chen Ping said: "Each country or region will select one of the most important companies, two from the Mainland and Hong Kong. Others will not be considered for the time being."

"Sister Jinhua and I also think about it this way."

Wu Yu also nodded.

Although more than 90% of advertising endorsements have been omitted.

But even the remaining endorsements are a very scary figure.

To know.

Now Chen Ping's endorsement fee is not something that can be obtained by 10 to 20 million.

In particular, Chen Ping is still a top international star.

International star.

This is rare in the entire mainland and the entire Xiangjiang.

Full calculation.

In the mainland and Hong Kong, the only ones who can be called international stars are Chen Long and Jet Li.

Even the Four Heavenly Kings cannot be counted.

As for Fa Ge.

Although I went to Hollywood for a while, the development was average.

Although Chen Ping, an international star, is not as valuable as Chen Long and Jet Li, after all, he relies on TV series.

But in terms of achievements in TV dramas, not many people can match them.

so.

Basically, advertising expenses abroad start at 50 million.

so.

After this round, Chen Ping's advertising revenue directly exceeded 500 million.

Although the cost has not come down yet.

But such an expense basically covers the cost of film production for a period of time in the future.

certainly.

Chen Ping can also maximize his profits.

That means accepting every ad.

In this case, the price of each advertisement may drop to about 10-20 million yuan.

Then after receiving 100 advertisements, it will be directly 1 billion to 2 billion.

But if you accept it this way, it will be a one-time deal.

Because he endorses most of the advertisements, it is basically difficult for Chen Ping to have other advertisements to endorse in the future.

in addition.

If Chen Ping's advertising price drops too much, it will not be good for Chen Ping's popularity.

Think about it.

Your advertisement only costs 10-20 million, so what is the difference between this and those first- and second-tier stars?

Got a lot more calls.

Everyone wonders if Chen Ping is the King of Heaven?

also.

After accepting so many cheap advertisements, if Chen Ping wants to do more high-end advertisements in the future, there may be some problems.

Because advertisers and major companies will feel that your positioning does not match mine.

"Okay, you can handle this."

"Okay."

In the remaining time, Chen Ping spent about a month shooting all the endorsement ads for more than a dozen companies.

After dealing with these things.

Chen Ping remembered that the previous task seemed to be completed.

The task of the previous system was to become the successor of the King and be rewarded with ten draws in a row.

but.

Now that Chen Ping has directly become the King of Heaven, how is this reward calculated?

Chen Ping felt a little bit at a loss.

Accidentally, I skipped a level directly.

However, Chen Ping still entered the system.

Fortunately, the system is quite excellent.

When Chen Ping entered the system interface, the system gave a prompt:

[System: It is detected that the host has overfulfilled the task and directly turns on the king mode. 】

King mode?

Chen Ping was stunned.

What is king mode?

Chen Ping was guessing.

At this time, I could only hear the constant flashing of Didi, and the original talent points were directly increased to 999 points.

Before, Chen Ping only had about 3 talent points left, but now he has 999 points.

And the 999 points and back are not fully displayed yet.

Looking at it this way, talent points have become infinite mode?

"This is good."

Although I don’t know if there are unlimited talent points, 999 talent points basically represents unlimited.

[System: Added new settings: Talent points can be combined in any way to form a unique talent temperament. In addition, talent points can be stacked. 】

Chen Ping understood this setting clearly.

It should no longer be like before. If you need a talent, just use 1 skill point to light up a certain talent.

What this means is that several talents can be integrated with each other.

Just like the bookish temperament and the chivalrous temperament can merge.

He embodies both the scholarly side and the chivalrous side.

It’s also more consistent with a person’s role.

After all, when you see a certain character, he cannot only embody one temperament.

Just like a bad guy, maybe he also has a good side.

A good person also has an evil side.

Such a setting can also depict a character more specifically.

in addition.

The meaning that talent points can be stacked is also easy to understand.

That is, you can click on 1 point of bookish temperament, or you can click on 2 points or 3 points of bookish temperament.

There is no need to wash it afterwards, there is a close button on it.

This makes Chen Ping feel a little like a talent tree.

Putting different talent points together will produce different chemical reactions.

Then if you feel you are weak somewhere, push a little harder.

"This is beautiful."

It is indeed the king mode.

Sure enough, it is a function that is enabled for the king.

This model is very enjoyable to think about, let alone using it.

[System: It is detected that the host has been upgraded to the King of Heaven, and the host's line talent is upgraded to level 7, and the level 7 line talent Jinkou Yuyan is rewarded. 】

This is easy to understand.

Look at the introduction above.

Chen Ping was a little embarrassed.

After Chen Platform Ci's talent was raised to level 6, he didn't move much.

Taking acting talent as an example, Chen Ping's acting talent is already level 8, but his line talent is still level 6.

There's obviously some mismatch.

But after seeing the system prompts, Chen Ping understood.

The reason why his line talent has not been improved to level 8 is mainly because Chen Ping pays more attention to the performance aspect, but has slightly weakened in the line aspect.

In fact, for many actors, when they reach a certain level, they may weaken their lines.

As for the reason.

That’s because a lot of the time when filming is more about watching a performance.

Lines are also important though.

But dubbing can be done in the later stage, and some professional vocal actors are hired.

even.

Some actors also have dedicated voice actors.

For example, Mr. Xing.

So for many actors, even if they read 1234, it doesn’t matter.

Anyway, someone can make up for it later.

But Chen Ping also gained a lot of insights from the system's reminders.

Just being able to perform is not enough.

The lines and the performance are one.

Only when the two advance simultaneously can we reach a higher state.

I was calculating in my heart.

At this time, Chen Ping saw the third benefit sent by the system: [System: Reward additional talent, King's Will. 】

This king's will is somewhat like the previous actor's will.

But it doesn't look like it is.

Just as he was about to do some research, director Wang Jing called Chen Ping.

"Chen Ping, where are you?"

"Inland."

"Why did you go back to the mainland?"

"Director Wang, what are your plans?"

"Didn't I tell you before that this drama of mine has been waiting for you. In this case, I will come to the mainland."

"Director Wang, what's the matter? If you, a great director, come to the mainland, it's better for me to come to Xiangjiang."

"No, you are the King of Heaven now, you are busy, I should do it."

"Then...okay."

Chen Ping did not refuse.

…

The next day, Chen Ping met with Wang Jing in his office.

"I'll go, Chen Ping. I haven't seen you in the past few days. You have changed too much."

"What changes?"

Chen Ping looked at himself and said, "Has he become more handsome?"

"Come on, how do you want to be more handsome?"

Wang Jing curled his lips and said, "Don't you know how many people can't get married because of you?"

But even though he said that, Wang Jing still looked at Chen Ping.

Look at this.

It's not about looking at Chen Ping's appearance.

But Wang Jing felt that Chen Ping's temperament was a little different from before.

After a while, Wang Jing nodded: "Yes, I said there is something different. It turns out that he has the temperament of a king."

"Director Wang, you are kidding me again. I am not a king. If I were a king, I would be a parallel importer."

Chen Ping said mockingly.

But Wang Jing shook his head: "Those blind media are talking nonsense. Now who dares to say that you are the king of parallel imports? Not to mention that they don't dare. Even if Liu Dehua comes over, he will not dare to say that."

"Director Wang, please stop praising me. If you continue to praise me, I feel like I will kill the king in an instant."

"Don't tell me yet, I'm preparing an idea for you to kill the king instantly."

"What?"

Chen Ping was drinking tea when he choked: "Director Wang, don't talk nonsense."

Although Chen Ping is already the King of Heaven, he also has great respect for the Four Heavenly Kings.

But after all, they are also seniors.

Not to mention that Chen Ping has not completely surpassed them yet, even if he has surpassed them, those who should be respected must still be respected.

"Haha, I'm just kidding you. What I'm saying is that I have a movie and I want you to collaborate with Hua Zai again."

"Oh, what movie?"

For Liu Dehua.

Chen Ping was still very interested.

Previously in Infernal Affairs, Chen Ping and Liu Jianming, played by Andy Lau, were rivals.

Chen Ping feels that acting with Andy Lau is very enjoyable.

Chen Ping would still be very willing to act with the King again.

"The God of Gamblers."

With that said, Wang Jing took out the script: "This is a brand new script I wrote, a movie about gambling. I feel that this genre has a lot of room for operation. If it is shot well, it may be a box office hit."

"The God of Gamblers."

Chen Ping was extremely excited after receiving Wang Jing's script.

There are many classic movies in Hong Kong.

But God of Gamblers is undoubtedly a classic among classics.

"Shall I play Chen Daozai?"

Chen Ping probably flipped the script, and he was the same as the God of Gamblers in his previous life.

"No."

Wang Jing shook his head: "You play Gao Jin."

"What."

Chen Ping couldn't believe it: "Director Wang, did I hear you correctly? I play Gao Jin?"

"What, you don't dare to act?"

"It's not a question of whether you dare or not."

Chen Ping looked at Wang Jing and then the script.

Finally, he pointed at Chen Daozai, Gao Jin's apprentice and the supporting actor in God of Gamblers, and said, "Then what will King Liu play?"

"You played Gao Jin, so naturally he played Chen Daozai."

"I go……"

The joke was too big.

Chen Ping took several sips of tea before calming down a little: "Director Wang, you can't be joking."

"Do you think I came all the way from Xiangjiang to joke with you?"

"not kidding?"

Looking at Wang Jing's look, Chen Ping asked again: "Director Wang, your idea is a little jumpy, and I can't keep up. With my reputation, not to mention that I am still a little bit behind the four kings, even if I am not far behind them. On equal terms, I can't let Liu Tianwang be my supporting role. Besides, even if I am willing to act, do you think Liu Tianwang is willing?"

Andy Lau in Infernal Affairs is willing.

That's because Infernal Affairs is a dual-protagonist mode.

Although it seems that Chen Yongren, played by Chen Ping, is the protagonist, this is not entirely true.

Infernal Affairs does not have a male protagonist in the strict sense.

not to mention.

In the scene in Infernal Affairs, Chen Yongren actually died.

But another version of Liu Jianming had the last laugh.

Who do you think is the protagonist?

Although there is some tragedy in this, Liu Jianming in Infernal Affairs is also a very exciting character.

In terms of setting, Liu Jianming's role is not inferior to Chen Yongren at all.

If Andy Lau takes this role a step further, he may also be able to overpower Chen Yongren.

Liu Dehua is naturally willing to play such a role.

But in God of Gamblers.

Then there is strictly one man and two men.

undoubtedly.

God of Gamblers Gao Jin is definitely the number one male.

Male number 2, that is Chen Feizai.

If only Andy Lau plays the second male lead, that would be fine.

More importantly.

The second male lead, Chen Feizai, is also the apprentice of God of Gamblers Gao Jin.

Even if Andy Lau is willing to be a green leaf to play the second male lead, it is somewhat impossible to play Chen Ping's apprentice.

"What you said is indeed a problem."

Wang Jing knew what Chen Ping was thinking, nodded and said, "I have communicated with King Liu Tian, ​​​​but he is unwilling."

"That's fine then."

Chen Ping spread his hands and said, "Director Wang, then you also said that Liu Tianwang would act."

"It doesn't matter."

Wang Jing smiled and said: "This is just for me to communicate. King Liu Tian may not sell my face, but he has to give it to someone else."

"Who?"

"Long Wu."

"Who is Long Wu?"

"Xiang Boss."

"I go."

Say this.

Chen Ping understood.

Then, Chen Ping read the script carefully.

Distribution company: Yongsheng Films.

Chen Ping knew what the word Yongsheng meant.

Boss Xiang is Yongsheng’s big boss.

This is the existence of Xiangjiang Dabo SS.

also.

Boss Xiang also played Long Wu, Gao Jin's bodyguard, in God of Gamblers.

No wonder Wang Jing is not anxious at all.

It doesn't matter if King Liu Tianwang rejects me.

I'll find someone more awesome to pull you over and see if you refuse or not?

"Why, I see you are not in a good mood."

"nor."

Chen Ping shook his head.

"Don't have any psychological burden."

Wang Jing seemed to see Chen Ping's thoughts and said: "No one can maintain the peak. Although Liu Tianwang is a king, he is also an actor. Since he is an actor, there is no role that he cannot play. Male 1 can play, male 1 2 can also be played, even if it is to play your apprentice, what’s wrong with that? Furthermore, if it were you, can you guarantee that you will remain popular, popular, and popular? When you get old in the future, you won’t be able to act Moved, not much popular anymore, do you still want to play the leading role, do you still want to play the leading male role? Even if you want to play, capital will not let you play..."

"Director Wang, what a messy theory you have. However, when you said it, I felt a lot more comfortable."

"I don't have any random theories, I just think openly. After all, I have always felt that movies are a business, a business that can make money, why not do it. I can be the No. 1 male or the No. 2 male. If I can make money, I can play any role. .”

…

"Hua Zai, call the boss."

"Xiang Boss?"

"Well, it's the same as Wang Jing looking for you. It's about the God of Gamblers."

"The God of Gamblers surrendered to the boss?"

"yes."

Hong Kong.

Liu Dehua was extremely surprised when he heard that Boss Xiang had called him.

To know.

Previously, Andy Lau rejected Wang Jing.

Unexpectedly.

Even after being rejected, Wang Jing still did not give up.

No.

This time the caller was Boss Xiang.

Wang Jing’s face doesn’t need to be given.

But you can’t give Boss Xiang face, even if you don’t give it.

This made Liu Dehua a little unhappy.

"Lao He, do you want to answer it?"

Liu Dehua looked at his agent He Ying.

"I called the boss. If you don't answer, I'm afraid..."

Agent He Ying stopped talking midway through.

In fact, Liu Dehua knew better than anyone, and he didn't even need to ask.

But he really didn’t want to act.

It's not that he doesn't want to play the second male lead.

But when he found out that the number one gambler was Chen Ping, Liu Dehua refused.

This is not because Liu Dehua hates Chen Ping.

In fact, Liu Dehua still admires Chen Ping.

It is simply a miracle that after more than 30 years of matchmaking between the four heavenly kings, one of them is still promoted to be a heavenly king.

But a miracle is a miracle.

Chen Ping, who has become the king, has now become a very important competitor of Liu Dehua.

Although his overall status is still slightly inferior to his own.

But so what?

Capital won't care about this.

Especially since Chen Ping has become very popular recently, capital has taken a fancy to Chen Ping's potential.

If Andy Lau were to be Chen Ping's supporting role.

That in itself is a huge gimmick.

Regardless of how well this film goes, just releasing this stunt will arouse the interest of countless people.

More importantly.

Liu Dehua was thinking about it.

Once he takes on such a role, does this represent the decline of the Four Heavenly Kings?

It's not impossible.

Even if Andy Lau doesn't think so, will some other viewers think so?

otherwise.

Why did you go to pick up Male No. 2?

You know, you are the king of heaven.

The King of Heaven can make a guest appearance or appear in a friendly role... But the King of Heaven can be a green leaf, the second male lead, a foil for others...

That's not so easy to accept.

After thinking about it, Liu Dehua called Wang Jing.

"Director Wang, you are too cruel, you actually dragged Boss Xiang over."

"I was originally filming a movie for Boss Xiang, but I couldn't get you to do it, so I had to let Boss Xiang come."

"You are cruel."

Liu Dehua said bitterly: "Where are you now?"

"Inland."

"Mainland?"

Andy Lau was stunned: "You won't go to Chen Ping's place, will you?"

"I said King Liu Tian, ​​it's time for you to go get your fortune told. I'm in Chen Ping's office."

As he said that, Wang Jing glanced at Chen Ping.

And, he turned on the speakerphone: "Chen Ping, come on, come on, let's have a chat with Andy."

"Hello, Brother Hua."

Chen Ping glared at Wang Jing, but still said.

"Chen Ping, congratulations, congratulations, I should call you Chen Tianwang now."

"Brother Hua, please don't say that. I'm still a student in front of you."

"too humble."

Liu Dehua then said: "Since Director Wang is with you, let's do this. The three of us will meet in a few days so that I can play with you in advance. What do you think?"

Chen Ping heard what Liu Dehua meant.

It was simple to say this, but Liu Dehua probably already hated himself by now.

Chen Ping glared at Wang Jing again.

This guy has attracted so much hatred to himself since he came here today.

But there is no way.

This hatred has been pulled away, and even if Liu Dehua refuses, it cannot be eliminated.

He had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay."

"That's it."

After that, Liu Dehua hung up the phone.
