Chapter 177
(PS: Due to a mistake, I sent it in the wrong order. Because it was Sunday, I couldn’t change it, so I had to send it in the evening. I hope everyone can forgive me)
When Peng Hui arrived in Bac Ha Province, it was already the afternoon of the second day.
Without rest, Peng Hui went directly to the location of the crew.
After he and his assistant distributed the snacks and drinks they bought to everyone, Peng Hui immediately went to visit director Wu Jing.
That's right, the director of this movie is Wu Jing.
And the name of this movie is called "Wolf Warrior 2".
For this movie, Guang Guang is naturally one of the investors. In addition, Peng Hui is very popular recently, has good acting skills, and has an outstanding image, so he naturally won this role.
In fact, Peng Hui's role is somewhat meant to bring money into the group.
So Peng Hui's attitude was very low at the beginning.
Wu Jing is a typical veteran actor in the industry.
It has been popular and quiet. After so many years of ups and downs, now it has lost its glory and has transformed into a director.
"Wolf Warrior 2" is Wu Jing's third personal work and the second in the "Wolf Warrior" series.
Generally speaking, the script tends to be based on the main themes of Hollywood works from ten years ago, and in the script, Peng Hui even saw the shadow of domestic military-themed novels.
Later I found out that one of the screenwriters of this drama is also a platinum master of military themes in ASXS.
The first part of the "Wolf Warrior" series cost $12 million and earned a box office of $525 million.
It's a huge profit.
When it comes to the second part, there will naturally be no shortage of investment.
Naturally, Peng Hui joined the team.
But because he is a semi-newcomer, Peng Hui’s price is only one million.
After all, he was an actor with a Golden Horse Award-winning work. Although he didn't win the award, his performance was good. Wu Jing was not short of money now, so he naturally agreed to the price.
As an old man in the industry, Wu Jing is naturally very satisfied with Peng Hui's performance.
There is not much money for snacks and drinks.
But this kind of thing is a way to make friends with the crew.
Don't underestimate this just a few drinks and snacks, it may change the staff who had some opinions about you before.
As the last staff member to join the team, Peng Hui showed very good qualities.
Not only is he hardworking and uncomplaining, but he is also full of energy.
He goes wherever he needs, and he seems to be even more proficient in business than Wu Jing.
Later Wu Jing found out that Peng Hui was also a director before.
Forgive Wu Jing, he really didn't pretend to be stupid on purpose, but he had been busy filming before, and the only thing he knew about Peng Hui was "The Birth of an Actor" and the recently popular singers.
As for Peng Hui’s Golden Horse Award for Best New Director...
To be honest, this kind of thing seems very high-end, but in fact it is useless at all.
Until Peng Hui's next hit movie appears, this is just an honor.
And because "Flash Girl" did not explode at the box office, Peng Hui's ability as a director is now being questioned.
Some people even expressed disdain for Peng Hui, who has recently become famous for participating in variety shows.
I think he feels guilty that his works cannot win awards or box office, so he uses variety shows to divert other people's attention.
Some people even slandered Peng Hui that he went to star in variety shows to make money because he couldn't get investment.
These statements, coupled with rumors that Peng Hui was on variety shows for money, cast a shadow over Peng Hui's popularity.
Praise always comes with criticism.
There is no one person in this world whose actions are praised and recognized by everyone.
However, Wu Jing became interested in Peng Hui's abilities.
After the two talked in detail in private, Wu Jing also admired this young man very much.
This is a pure filmmaker and a pure artist!
This is Wu Jing's impression of Peng Hui.
This sentence was directly spoken by Wu Jing when he was interviewed later.
It caused quite a bit of discussion at the time.
Although he is the leading actor in terms of his role, in reality Peng Hui is just the fourth male lead.
The male lead is Wu Jing, and the second male lead is Nick Frank Grillo, the lawyer in "Prison Break" who also plays the villain in the play.
The third male lead is Wu Gang.
Wu Gang is an old artist, and his most well-known work is probably the sketch "Selling Rice" he and Guo Da performed on the Spring Festival Gala.
Although not famous, it is powerful.
Just a few lines made Peng Hui feel more stressed.
If facing Yu Yi, Peng Hui, who has made some progress now, can still survive one or two moves, then facing Wu Gang, the only thing Peng Hui can do is to lie down.
Wu Gang launched a crushing attack on Peng Hui from all aspects of soundstage and performance.
And this is what happened after people deliberately collected some.
Although Peng Hui is only a supporting role in this drama, and the total number of scenes is less than twenty minutes, it is all an ensemble cast.
But since he has participated in this movie, Peng Hui naturally does not allow himself to become an actor who drags everyone down.
So that night, Peng Hui calmed down all his previous emotions and devoted himself wholeheartedly to his role as Zhuo Yifan, the "naughty kid" of the rich second generation.
It has to be said that the experience gained from previous collections also played a key role at this time.
An arrogant but very cute naughty kid just appeared in front of the camera.
It made Wu Jing and Wu Gang's eyes light up.
To be honest, Wu Gang didn't actually have any hostility towards Peng Hui before. He was just a little angry when he saw that Peng Hui seemed a little impetuous and hadn't gotten into the drama yet.
Only then did he have that crushing acting skills.
Now that Peng Hui calms down and takes filming seriously, Wu Gang feels good about her.
In fact, most of the elders in the entertainment industry are friendly to the younger generations.
Even when I meet outstanding juniors, I will help them a little bit.
But these all have a premise, that is, you are indeed worthy of others doing this.
Wu Gang's oppression actually has another meaning.
That is, testing.
Test whether Peng Hui is as rumored.
This kind of testing is necessary.
Because there are many people who think one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes. This is a good movie. For the final effect of the movie, the actors who appear in it will inevitably need to be screened.
But Peng Hui brought money into the group, and he is a popular young star now. Although he appears to be doing well, what is he actually doing?
This requires a trial.
With Wu Jing's acquiescence, Wu Gang had the same oppression as before.
Peng Hui was not aware of this at the time. He just thought that his performance was not good enough and his mentality was not correct, which led to his embarrassing performance.
After correcting his mentality and adjusting his condition, Peng Hui's performance was naturally recognized by Wu Jing and Wu Gang.
Although Peng Hui didn't have many scenes, they were all big scenes, so most of the filming time, Peng Hui was waiting for the scene.
Taking advantage of this time, Peng Hui is writing a new script while paying attention to the status of his new album.
Chapter completed!
