    Huang Xiaoming originally fought for the opportunity to audition for Cheng Peng, but now Cheng Peng gave him the opportunity; Huang Xiaoming invited him to dinner after the audition, and now he must invite him back.  When Cheng Peng finished the morning audition and walked out of the audition hall, he saw that there were still many artists waiting at the door to prepare for the afternoon audition.  Seeing these people, Cheng Peng thought of himself in the past, and felt a little emotional in his heart, so he said: "Everyone, let's go eat. Only when you are full can you be energetic. Otherwise, as a director, when I look at it, oh, this looks like I haven't eaten enough."  Yes, no! Oh, that one looks like malnourished, no! So everyone go and eat, your health is important!¡± The auditioners all laughed: ¡°Director, let¡¯s go to the private room of the restaurant!¡±  Xiaoming was already waiting inside.  After ordering the food, the two chatted while eating.  We first talked about our respective experiences over the past year, and then talked about some things in the industry. The topic quickly returned to the movie "Myth".  Cheng Peng said seriously: "Xiao Ming, you have no problem playing Yi Xiaochuan, but you are still far from being able to play Meng Yi, so you will be trained for about five months. This movie has a huge investment, and there is no room for sloppiness.  , so I hope you will be fully committed. During the eight or nine months from training to the end of filming, I hope you will not accept advertisements and endorsements, and put all your thoughts on the movie. I know this is a bit harsh, but it will be.  It will bring a lot of losses, but the effort is worth it. After the movie is released, everyone will see a different you, other directors will also see your ability, and big productions will come to you! " Tong Dawei is in many roles!  In people's eyes, he is just a niche student, but when he played a tough-blooded soldier in "The Thirteen Hairpins", his acting career widened immediately, and big productions came to him one after another.  Tong Dawei is just a supporting role in "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".  But the person he named Huang Xiao was the real number one male.  Huang Xiaoming frowned when he heard this. He couldn't accept advertisements and endorsements for eight or nine months. The loss was too great, several million!  It¡¯s like having no income this year!  Huang Xiaoming pondered for a few seconds and said: "I'm not afraid of the long cycle. But it's a bit difficult not to accept advertisements and endorsements. To be honest, the company will definitely not agree. Now the whole company is pointing at me to make money!" Hearing Huang  When Xiaoming said this, Cheng Peng knew that he was hesitant. Huang Xiaoming had a very bad relationship with his employer, Century Element Company.  "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was picked up privately without going through the company. The two parties later went to court. If Huang Xiaoming wanted to pick up "The Legend", the company could not stop him at all. He advised: "Xiao Ming. Don't just look at things in front of you.  , participating in such a large-scale production will definitely be beneficial to your future development. Only if you participate in such a large-scale production will other large-scale productions dare to look for you. Otherwise, if anyone dares to hire you rashly, then you have to slowly work your way up from supporting roles!  " Huang Xiaoming nodded. It was precisely because of this benefit that he hesitated. Otherwise, he would have refused directly: "I understand what you said. The benefits and disadvantages are obvious, but the matter is important, and I have to tell you.  The agent will discuss it with the company!" Cheng Peng nodded and said, "Okay, you can discuss it with the company as soon as possible. I'll wait for your news!" After lunch, Cheng Peng returned to the company and called Zhao Linlin.  Come over: "Linlin, go ask Nie Yuan about his schedule!" "Why, Huang Xiaoming is unwilling to star?" "He is a little hesitant. He plans to discuss with his agent and company before giving an answer, so be prepared!" Zhao Linlin shook  He shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's useless to discuss it with the agent and the agency. These are people who only care about their immediate interests!" Cheng Peng quickly got Nie Yuan's schedule, and he accepted a 42-episode TV series.  The filming has just started, and the filming will not be completed until February next year.  At the same time, Huang Xiaoming was discussing "Myth" with his agent Zhou Siwei.  Zhou Siwei did not rush to give his answer: "Xiao Ming, tell me what you think!" Huang Xiaoming liked the script of "Myth" very much, but refused commercial activities within a few months. He found it difficult to accept: "  The script of the movie is very good, the investment is huge, and Cheng Peng is my friend. I want to act in this movie, but it takes 5 months of training, plus the shooting time and publicity, it will take almost a year.  The salary is at most 1 million, and I have signed a contract with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". I will have to pay a lot of money to quit at this time, which means that there will be almost no income for a whole year. I am still undecided!" Zhou Siwei!  He nodded and said: "In that case, let's analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the two and see if the advantages or disadvantages are greater!" "You say!" "The advantage is that after the film is finished, you can go to the film festival.  Being able to gain exposure from foreign media will help improve your image and will always??If the movie is successful, your future movie career will be easy!  " "Then what's the disadvantage?  " "First, I have been unable to do endorsements and advertisements for nearly a year, which has cost millions; second, no one can guarantee the success of "The Myth". The TV series and novel "Jade Goddess of Mercy" are very popular, and the director of the movie version is still Xu Anhua.  , the actors are Nicholas Tse and Zhao Wei, but the box office did not even reach 10 million, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will definitely be popular; thirdly, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is about to start filming, and withdrawing now will cause the entire crew to  It couldn't be turned on, and it required re-casting and re-training. This definitely offended Zhang Jizhong to death.  You should know how well-connected Zhang Jizhong is in this circle. At the end of last year, Zhang Yu exposed Huang Jianzhong's unspoken rules. Zhang Jizhong stood up and called for Zhang Yu to be banned. Can you still see Zhang Yu now?  Fourth, if you tear up the contract and quit the crew when the production is about to start, causing the crew to be unable to start production normally, how will you let the supporters of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" think of you, and how will you let other crew members think of you? This will have a big impact on your image.  s damage!  " Huang Xiaoming was speechless. This obviously has more harm than good! "If an actress takes on Cheng Peng's film, it is right to go to the red carpet at the film festival, but the red carpet is not of much help to the male actor. Chen Kun  "Balzac and the Little Dressmaker" starring in it was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival and was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film. How much did it improve Chen Kun's status?  Xia Yu is also the best actor in Venice. How many people abroad know him?  We should be down-to-earth and do a good job in the domestic market first before considering overseas.  Even if we haven't established a foothold in the domestic market, we just want to think about the foreign market. That's a tree without roots!  " Huang Xiaoming felt that the agent's words were quite reasonable, and nodded: "You are right, I understand what to do!  " A few minutes later. Huang Xiaoming dialed Cheng Peng's phone: "Xiao Peng, I'm really sorry, I can't act in "The Myth". The shooting cycle is too long, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is about to start filming.  Yes, if you quit now, you will face a lawsuit.  I don't want to cause trouble!  Cheng Peng now understands why Zhang Yimou likes to use newcomers. Only newcomers can receive training for several months or even a year: "It's okay, I can understand. Let's work together again if we have the opportunity in the future!"  " "You will go home during the Spring Festival, right?  Let¡¯s get together then, and I¡¯ll treat you to dinner!  "    "OK.  Then we've settled!  " After hanging up the phone, Cheng Peng shook his head. He didn't contact Louis Koo at the beginning because he knew it would be like this. Louis Koo was famous enough that he was in short supply of movies and would definitely refuse. But he didn't expect Huang Xiaoming to have the same result. " In fact, this kind of thing happened.  It¡¯s not surprising. Shu Qi originally rejected the film because of the low salary, months of training and long filming period, and went to shoot a Japanese oolong tea commercial, which eventually led to Zhang Ziyi¡¯s success.  Ang Lee still has a Golden Bear and an Oscar nomination! Cheng Peng is only a Silver Bear winner, not to mention that he has only one movie released in China so far. No one can guarantee that "Myth" will be a hit tonight.  The main creators gathered in the office, with a pile of photos of male actors in front of them, and seriously discussed the choice of Meng Yi. Among the four young people, Lu Yi was too elegant, and Chen Kun was too feminine, and Hu Bing was too tall to be matched.  , and it is not suitable for ancient costumes; as for Li Yapeng, if he were to act, I guess Meng Yi could jump out of the coffin and strangle Cheng Peng to death! For the younger Xiaosheng, Liu Ye is too melancholy; Tong Dawei is too creamy; Yin Xiaotian is too modern,  "I think Hu Jun is a good choice. His acting skills are absolutely fine and his dialogue skills are good. He played Qiao Feng very domineeringly in "Dragon Movie", so he will definitely have no problem playing Meng Yi!  " "He is from Huayi. Now we are poaching Huayi. I'm afraid there will be problems if we use him. The risk is too high, no!"  "Cheng Peng has considered Hu Jun since the beginning. He has played Zhao Yun and Xiang Yu. Meng Yi is definitely easy to play, but he is from Huayi. Cheng Peng and the others have been secretly poaching people from Huayi's Propaganda Department recently. In this way  It can strengthen its own publicity power and at the same time disrupt Huayi's publicity rhythm. In this way, the relationship with Huayi will inevitably deteriorate. If Huayi uses some means to make Hu Jun withdraw from the movie before it starts, there will be trouble.  Big. After being tricked once in "Dark Invasion", Cheng Peng didn't dare to take the risk! "How about Zhao Wenzhuo?  His appearance as the general in "The Supreme Beauty" was very good, and his skills were very good!  " "Zhao Wenzhuo is suitable for playing the role of an elegant and reserved character. He is suitable for playing the role of a grand master, but not a general. He lacks the temperament of a soldier, and he has no shortage of filming!  "Actually, I only talk about appearance and temperament, and there are some that match it. For example, the actor Shao Bin who played Nangong Yan in the original "Myth" is good, but he is not famous enough. For such a big production worth hundreds of millions, if there are no first-line male stars  To take charge of propaganda?It's a disadvantage and lacks appeal to the audience. Zhang Yimou has to find big stars for big productions.  After some discussion, there was no result. Cheng Peng leaned back on his chair and looked up to the sky and shouted: "Oh heaven, earth, give me a male protagonist!" At this time, Zhang Meng's eyes lit up and he slapped the table, looking very excited.  : "I think of a particularly suitable candidate, with the right image and temperament, enough fame, and charisma!" Cheng Peng sat up and asked: "Who?" Zhang Meng stared at Cheng Peng and smiled: "You!" The crew  Everyone's eyes were focused on Cheng Peng, and their eyes lit up: "This is a good idea!" "Yes, I think it fits the character image better than Huang Xiaoming, and you are a martial arts practitioner, so you must be the best in martial arts movies.  Better than Huang Xiaoming!" "Directing and acting by yourself is very eye-catching, and it's also a great gimmick for publicity!" Cheng Peng pondered for two seconds, shook his head and said, "No, I don't have time, I can play Yi Xiaochuan!  , but Meng Yi can¡¯t do it, he doesn¡¯t have the iron-bloodedness of a soldier!¡± ¡°Huang Xiaoming also lacks the temperament of a soldier, so why did you choose him?¡± ¡°It¡¯s because he doesn¡¯t have it, so I let him train for a few months, otherwise I wouldn¡¯t have it.  It¡¯s so troublesome, I don¡¯t have much time to train!¡± Zhao Linlin said: ¡°Xiaopeng, I remember you said some time ago that our company is not professional enough and has no professional division of labor. Now we have hired a lot of people, and almost all the departments we should have are there.  , you can leave a lot of things to various departments, you can make the final decision, there is time!" Cheng Peng pondered for a while, nodded: "You make sense, so let's borrow two sets of Qin Jun's as soon as possible!  Armor, take a trial photo to see the effect!¡±
