Chapter 323: You need to look for a beautiful woman in a vase. Among Hong Kong actors, Li Lianjie is indeed the most suitable. Whether it is his Kung Fu foundation or appearance and temperament, he is undoubtedly the best candidate for the young Wong Fei Hung. In fact, in Xu Ke's mind, there is another candidate who is also very suitable, that is Yuan Biao, who successfully shaped the great master Ip Man. However, comparing the two men's action styles and appearance, Li Lianjie is indeed better. Even though Li Lianjie's box office appeal in Hong Kong is not as good as Yuan Biao at this time. As for why Zhang Yi chose Li Lianjie instead of Yuan Biao, Xu Ke naturally didn¡¯t know. Zhang Yi was completely influenced by the original version. In his opinion, the reason for this choice may be that he wanted to cultivate Li Lianjie. Although Li Lianjie follows the trend of international style, after all, his background is too poor and he has too few works to produce. Moreover, acting skills still need to be honed. When working with Zhang Yi on a movie, the actor will not ask questions unless Zhang Yi speaks out. I guess there is no film company or director who does not seek Zhang Yi¡¯s opinion. "The male protagonist Huang Feihong is played by Li Lianjie, and what about the female protagonist Aunt Thirteen?" Xu Ke then asked. "What do you think of Guan Zhilin?" Zhang Yi smiled and said. "Very beautiful!" Xu Ke nodded and said. Very beautiful, this Xu is praising Guan Zhilin's appearance, but the underlying meaning is undoubtedly questioning her acting skills. For actors or singers, complimenting your appearance is definitely not giving you affirmation. It's a tactful denial. Zhang Yi naturally heard it, glanced at Xu Ke, and said with a smile: "The role of Thirteenth Aunt is actually the role of a vase in the film. Of course, the vase must be beautiful." "What about the others? ?" Xu Ke asked without further entanglement. As for the actors recommended by Zhang Yi, as long as they are not suitable, they will not lose Zhang Yi's face. After all, Zhang Yi chose a director he could work with. There are a lot of them in Hong Kong. "You can take care of the rest yourself. In fact, I am just suggesting the male and female protagonists. If they are really not suitable, there is no need to replace them." Zhang Yi waved his hand and said. He invests in this series of movies. But I don't have much interest in doing it. Nowadays, when he makes movies, his interests take up a large proportion. Moreover, Zhang Yi's pursuit of vision is getting bigger and bigger. A movie can¡¯t be complete without some outstanding visuals. He couldn't be interested. When filming "Mulan", he just wanted to make the war scenes bigger and more shocking. We have negotiated cooperation with Xu Ke, but we will not start preparations soon. After all, Xu Ke is focusing all his energy on the upcoming "Zhu Xian" at this time. When Xu Ke was filming "Zhu Xian", Zhang Yi was busy filming "Jurassic Park", so he didn't pay much attention at all. It is now that "Zhu Xian" is being promoted in full swing. Zhang Yi didn¡¯t pay attention either. He doesn't even know who's starring yet. As a filmmaker, Zhang Yi is obviously unqualified. The film "Zhu Xian". It is considered a big production in Hong Kong. Except for Zhang Yi's several movies, this movie is definitely among the best, not to mention number one. "Zhu Xian" is invested by Media Asia and has an ATV background. Not only was the film released, it also copied the premiere of Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park", and it was live broadcast in Asia. In terms of publicity, it is definitely not inferior to Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park". This is just for Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. In Europe and the United States, no film studios take it seriously yet. ¡°Nowadays, in the eyes of film producers in Europe and the United States, only Zhang Yi¡¯s movies in Hong Kong are the guarantee of box office, and other movies have not yet conquered them. Although "Zhu Xian" also bears Zhang Yi's imprint, the film producers are still unsure whether this oriental fantasy story will be adapted to the Western climate. We can only wait for the movie to be released and see the reaction in Southeast Asia and other places. At the premiere of "Zhu Xian", Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin attended hand in hand, which immediately caused a great commotion. For two people who rarely appear in front of the media, they have always been highly sought after by various media, especially when they appear in front of the media at the same time. "Mr. Zhang, are you satisfied with Director Xu's film adaptation of your novel "Zhu Xian"? Has it achieved the effect you expected?" As soon as Zhang and Yi appeared, countless reporters gathered around them, including a reporter asked loudly. And those reporters, if they weren't blocked by Ruoduo's bodyguards, they would have rushed up and surrounded Zhang Yi and the two of them. "Haha. I haven't watched it yet, so I really don't know how to answer. However, I believe that director Xu Ke's ability will definitely make a work that will satisfy many "Zhu Xian" fans. Otherwise, I will not work with Xu Ke again and again. Cooperation." Zhang Yi smiled and said immediately. ¡°I heard that Mr. Zhang plans to cooperate with Director Xu to remake the Once Upon a Time series of films?¡± Another reporter seemed to be well-informed and had heard some rumors. When he heard Zhang Yi's words, he asked loudly. "It's true." Zhang Yi nodded and said. The last sentence just now was actually just to make these reporters ask this question. Moreover, Zhang Yi deliberately let people reveal the news about the remake of Once Upon a Time. "Mr. Zhang, I heard that you are not optimistic about the filming of "Zhu Xian" at this time, so you have no investment in Director Xu's film." A reporter asked next, changing the topic back. After all, what is most concerning at this time is not Zhang Yi's new film, but the upcoming "Zhu Xian". "Zhu Xian" is Zhang Yi's best-selling novel and has a huge fan base. As soon as it was announced that this novel would be adapted into a movie, it was highly anticipated. However, it was also overshadowed by Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park" some time ago. But now, although the dinosaur trend set off by "Jurassic Park" has not faded away, it is no longer so crazy. "If I felt that it was not the time when I was filming "Zhu Xian", I would not have given the copyright to director Xu Ke. After all, I have to give an explanation to the book fans. This film has been suppressed for a long time, and I only gave the copyright to him when I knew about the breakthrough in special effects technology. Director Xu Ke. It would be nonsense not to watch "Zhu Xian" at this time," Zhang Yi said to the reporter while still smiling. "Then why doesn't Mr. Zhang invest in this movie?" The reporter seemed to be convinced of the matter and said, "When Mr. Hong Jinbao was filming "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" before, Mr. Zhang invested a large amount of money. It was also adapted from your novel. Why do you invest in one film and not the other? " Zhang Yi naturally knows that if he reveals something here, the media will take the opportunity to hype it up the next day, saying that Zhang Yi is not optimistic about this movie. "In investing in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", it may be that Brother Sanmao and Mr. Pan thought it was risky, so they asked me to invest and share the risk. In the end, the box office was satisfactory. As for why they did not invest in "Zhu Xian", it is because Mr. Lin is extremely optimistic about this film. I am confident that this film will be successful at the box office. There is no need for me to invest or share risks," Zhang Yi said with a smile. "Haha. Everyone, as Mr. Zhang said, I am really optimistic about this film and have no worries about the box office. I want to borrow Mr. Zhang's novel to make a lot of money for the company. If Mr. Zhang invests, I will It's a lot less money." Lin Jianyue walked over with a smile, and then looked at Zhang Yi and said, "Mr. Zhang, Miss Zhou, please come in!" "Mr. Lin, please!" Zhang Yi smiled. Laughed and said. Although Lin Jianyue is a second-generation rich man, he is definitely like Pan Disheng, a capable second-generation rich man, not just a playboy who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. In fact, this person is much more professional than Pan Disheng when it comes to movies. "I heard that Mr. Zhang is planning to shoot in mainland China?" Zhang Yi and Zhou Huimin followed Lin Jianyue as they walked into the theater. Lin Jianyue suddenly asked Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi nodded and looked at Lin Jianyue curiously. "Mr. Zhang has gone to the mainland several times to shoot movies, and several movies have been released in the mainland. I wonder what Mr. Zhang thinks of the mainland film market?" Lin Jianyue asked when Zhang Yi looked over. "The mainland market has great potential! With the economic development of the mainland, it is very likely to be comparable to the North American market." Zhang Yi thought for a while and then said, "However, film restrictions are obviously very large. It is difficult for many films to be released in the mainland. "The potential of the mainland film market is naturally huge, after all, where is the population base? As for being on par with North America, although it will take some time, it is not impossible.
