Zhou Xingchi, born in 1962, was born in a poor district in Kowloon, Hong Kong. His parents divorced in 1967 and grew up with his sister and his mother with his sister. %Chinese %Fiction He stopped studying after graduating from high school and began to enter society. He worked as an office assistant and later became a special actor of Li's TV station. Later, he applied for the wireless TV artist training class but failed to pass the exam. Under the introduction of Qi Meizhen, he entered the wireless TV artist training class for night shifts. After leaving the training class, Zhou Xingchi began to serve as the host of children's programs and also starred in some TV series, but he remained unknown until he was appreciated by Li Leixuan and got many opportunities to appear. Finally, he became famous overnight because of his outstanding performance in "The Gambling Saint", opening up the subsequent success of the star road...

Du An listened to Zhou Xingchi's words, and his life experiences flashed through his mind, while looking at the person in front of him.

Although he is now middle-aged, the person in front of him is quite handsome according to Duane's aesthetic, but it seems that many people don't think that this is a handsome guy. They don't label "handsome" on him, and they still regard him as a comedian.

On the one hand, this proves his outstanding achievements in the field of comedy, but on the other hand, it also shows that he has not broken free from this shackles and does not know whether to be happy or sad.

Zhou Xingchi finished his talk soon, "...Mr. Fang is talking to me, I wonder if there is anything wrong?"

Duan nodded slightly, "It's basically that."

Fang Liyong is indeed quite professional. Even though he hopes that Zhou Xingchi can join the group, he does not reveal much specific information to tempt the other party. Judging from Zhou Xingchi's words, Fang Liyong just simply hinted that the film they collaborated with Duane would be an art film.

The kind who can win the prize.

From this perspective, Fang Liyong was quite reliable when he was a partner.

Duane continued: "From some perspectives, this movie was actually influenced by you, Mr. Zhou."

Zhou Xingchi naturally asked back: "My influence?"

Duane nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Zhou, I personally like your "King of Comedy" and I have watched it more than a dozen times."

He didn't say this false, and even said it was a low point. He had watched the movie "King of Comedy" at least dozens of times, not more than a dozen times, but he didn't say it completely.

It was when he was in college that the school’s small auditorium had the function of a cinema and often played movies. For a while, the movie was played "King of Comedy". Although this movie performed badly in the box office market, it was very popular among college students. He worked part-time to clean the auditorium, so he often watched it for free. However, because of work, he could only watch the beginning and the end. He watched the beginning and the end dozens of times. The complete viewing was only after he entered this industry, but he only watched it once and never watched it again.

After all, he was born to not like watching movies, so he watched them with purpose. After analyzing the movie thoroughly, he naturally didn't want to watch it anymore. Thinking about it now, the problem of his dislike of watching movies is probably caused by the work-study work he was in school.

Everyone likes to listen to good things. After hearing Duan watch his "King of Comedy" more than a dozen times, Zhou Xingchi's lips couldn't help but rise up, and a smile appeared in his eyes. Obviously, compared to others, the director in front of him who just broke the box office record made him even happier that he liked his movies so much.

Zhou Xingchi said: "Not many people like this drama."

Duane said: "That's because they don't know how to appreciate it. After watching your movie, I also had the idea of ​​shooting an actor, and then extended the idea and expanded it, thus obtaining the final story of the present..."

Du Ann tried to link "Trumen's World" and "King of Comedy" together like a god, but it sounded very natural. At least for people like Zhou Xingchi who didn't know the inside story, it sounded completely flawless and reasonable.

He chatted with Zhou Xingchi slowly, and before he knew it, he was actually talking further and further, and even starting to talk about life.

"...So it's better to raise husky than to raise golden retrievers. Although it's a little trouble, it takes a lot of physical strength to uniform husky. This can help people like us who often forget to exercise due to work reasons..."

Who knows how Duan unknowingly brought up the topic of raising a dog, but because he was too far, Zhou Xingchi finally reacted and interrupted Duan.

"Director Du, I think we'd better talk about this movie."

And Duane wants this effect.

The choice of the venue is a trick, and the layout of the venue is a trick. I said earlier that I have watched "The King of Comedy" more than ten times, and it is a trick to pull the topic apart, which is another trick... He has taken one trick after another in his mind, throwing it all on Zhou Xingchi.

Negotiation is a joint work that works both inside and outside the field, but it is not enough to have good eloquence. The tricks and even the weather on and off the field will have an impact. A real negotiation expert must be able to achieve the right time, place, and people in one, and use all factors to summarize and point to the final result. That is called a master.

Du An dared not be a master, but he just tried his best to use his knowledge to do so.

"Hi,"

Duan slapped his head and said happily: "Look at me, I'll have fun all of a sudden."

"It seems that Mr. Fang hasn't told you too much about you before. It's true that someone else has chosen the male lead in our movie before. Mr. Fang has a reason for doing this. However, the male lead in this movie may not be able to perform anymore. If Mr. Zhou is interested in this movie, why would you look at the script?"

Du An's words vaguely sold Fang Liyong to give himself extra points.

Zhou Xingchi nodded without hesitation, "Okay."

Du An had naturally prepared the script long ago and put it on the table. He took the script and handed it to Zhou Xingchi, and then Zhou Xingchi started reading it.

With limited time, he couldn't read it all carefully. After reading the outline and descriptions of several scenes, Du An believed that Zhou Xingchi should have a preliminary understanding of this drama.

Du An saw Zhou Xingchi put the script back on the table and closed his eyes and thought for a while, but he didn't know what he was thinking. He opened his eyes in about ten seconds.

"I want to take on this drama."

Duane smiled and said, "Of course it's okay."

He had no doubts about Zhou Xingchi's take on this drama: he knew how much Zhou Xingchi cares about the Huabiao Awards and even came to him on his own initiative and knew that Zhou Xingchi would definitely take on this movie, because the story of "The World of Truman" does have the potential to hit the awards, and it depends on whether the director can bring it out. He will come to him, and he believes that he also believes in his own abilities. Therefore, Duane's preparations are not to persuade Zhou Xingchi to take on this drama, but to have other functions.

"Actually, I had thought about asking Mr. Zhou to play this role, because I think you will be very suitable. After all, this play is an idea that extends from your movie."

The two sides formulated a preliminary cooperation intention so smoothly, which made Zhou Xingchi feel very relaxed and asked with a smile: "Why didn't you come to me? If it's a pay, it doesn't matter if it's a low."

Zhou Xingchi took the initiative to raise the issue of pay. It seems that his previous work was not in vain, and Zhou Xingchi was indeed very satisfied with the script.

Duane said: "The problem with the pay is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is because I thought that if you want to find Mr. Zhou, you will have to make a prior agreement and sign an additional contract. I am afraid of trouble, so I thought about it and just let it go and find someone else."

After he said this, Zhou Xingchi became even more curious, "What contract?"

"It's a contract of equity. The specific content needs to be drafted by a special lawyer, but the general content will be stipulated that in this movie, I will obtain absolute directorial power. Mr. Zhou, you give up all powers except performance, and your performance style needs to comply with my opinion."

Duane smiled kindly and explained, "If the film cannot continue shooting due to disagreement between the two parties, you need to bear all the economic losses. This is roughly the case, and the specific details must be discussed."

What he said actually has only one meaning, that is, in my movie, you can only be an actor and act according to my ideas. If you can't do it? Sorry, then we can meet and part with each other, and no one can waste their time.

Du An made one move after another, adding one point after another to himself, just to use this move now.

The gentle kitten finally opened his mouth and exposed his sharp fangs. (To be continued.)
