Chapter 307 Dasha and Danny Boy
After Li Xiuxian finished explaining, Cheng Kui'an gritted his teeth, as if he had made an important decision, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Cheng, for looking down on me. Although I am very willing, there is something I have to say. ←, and Brother Xian knows it. If he doesn't say it, I feel as if Brother Xian takes care of me like this. I have been involved in a club before and have been in jail!"
"Do you still have any contact with the club now?" Wu Cheng asked again.
"No, no more!"
"That's okay!" Wu Cheng smiled slightly and said, "Although you look very fierce, I believe that with your appearance, although you can't play the male lead, there is no problem with some important villains. Do it well! Maybe you will be the 'big villains' in the Hong Kong film industry in the future!" Wu Cheng said, and patted He Jiaju on the shoulder again.
This made He Jiaju feel a little amused!
The evil man in the Hong Kong film industry, should he be so exaggerated?
Cheng Kuian scratched his head with a smile, looking stupid.
"Let's go to Tiancheng Agency and sign a contract with Manager Chen!" Wu Cheng explained to Cheng Kui'an, and then walked to the director's monitor.
Lee Xiuxian, the director and starring actor, also followed and brought out some of the shots he had taken before for Wu Cheng to watch. Wu Cheng asked while watching: "How do you feel when you first directed?"
Lee Xiuxian smiled and said, "To be honest, it's very tiring! It's a lot of pressure, and it's much more tiring than when I was an actor before. When acting, you don't have to think so much, just do your job well. But now, not only do you have to act well, but also direct it well... Then again, you have to thank Mr. Cheng for looking down on me and letting me direct it like a newcomer!"
Although Lee Xiuxian is not a newcomer in acting, he is really a newcomer in directing. Although he has written scripts before, of course, he has not been valued by Shaw Brothers.
He had the dream of being a policeman since he was a child. He wrote a script based on the police and wanted to find Shaw Brothers to invest, but was rejected. At this time, Donglong International actually extended an olive branch to him, and the fatal one was asked to play the role of a policeman.
This was definitely a fatal temptation for him.
He felt that his opportunity had come!
What he didn't expect was that he could not only play a policeman, but also have the possibility of directing. What else can hesitate about? Sure enough, there were so many deputy directors in Donglong International waiting to take on the filming, but he still got the opportunity to direct this drama.
Wu Cheng patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "Take it slow! I may be worried about you shooting other scenes, but I believe you can do it when shooting police and gangster scenes!"
Although Li Xiuxian was a little surprised where Wu Cheng's confidence came from, he still felt valued and felt like he met a soulmate.
After pausing, he said again: "And, there are you in the crew and big fools, oh, that stupid guy. One of you has researched the police, and the other has been in the club. As long as you carefully craft it, I don't worry about any problems. In addition, Ah Xia's elder brother is also a policeman. If there is any problem, you can ask for advice. I don't ask how fast you are, but I just ask you to be able to carefully craft it and keep improving! The budget is not enough, tell me!"
Faced with such a boss, Lee Xiuxian felt that there was no reason not to put in 120,000 yuan in energy to film the drama. He felt that he had never made any mistakes when he left Shaw Brothers and came to Donglong International. At Shaw Brothers, everyone is concerned about efficiency and everything should be fast.
As a result, the films I made were of rough quality, so naturally they could not compare with Donglong International.
He now understands that the reason why Donglong International is today, the films they made are so popular, with such a high box office, and this serious and focused attitude have determined everything!
He was very glad that he had not come to the wrong place; he was also very glad that he could meet such a boss; he was even more glad that he had the courage to leave Shaw Brothers at the beginning.
He originally wanted to take out the script he had written before for Wu Cheng to see, but now, until Wu Cheng left the crew, he didn't do that.
He felt that he should calm down and make the film first. Once the drama achieves good results, I believe that Wu Cheng will not refuse it casually when he comes up with that script.
If you take it out now, it will give people a feeling of being greedy for the sake of the future.
"Big Sad, oh, A'an, come here!"
"Big stupid?" Everyone looked at Cheng Kuian in confusion, thinking that it was really appropriate, and then they couldn't help laughing. Cheng Kuian didn't think there was anything, and walked over with a silly smile.
"Brother Xian, why did Anran give me such a nickname? I guess the entire crew will call me that tomorrow!" Cheng Kui'an murmured beside Li Xiuxian.
Lee Xiuxian coughed lightly and said, "Your nickname is Cheng Shao. If you can make Cheng Shao give you such a nickname, just laugh! It means that Cheng Shao has a good impression of you."
"Then, that's OK!" Although he was a little unhappy, he felt a little honored when he thought that the nickname was given to him by Wu Cheng.
"Well, don't talk about this, come and see here, what are your thoughts?"
"Brother Xian, I am just a rough man. If you have any ideas, just say it directly! I'm too lazy to use my brain!" Dasha silly smiled and said.
Li Xiuxian gave him a speechless look and said, "The actions are too fake. Do you think your former elder brother will be so exaggerated?"
"That, I'll think about it again!" Dasha scratched her head.
Li Xiuxian glanced at him and said, "Let's go back and find an opportunity to go to the training class of Tiancheng Agency! Since I decided to take this path and Master Cheng looks down on you, you can't be sorry for his value to you, otherwise it will not only embarrass you, but also slap me in the face, but also make Master Cheng be laughed at by outsiders. You must know that Master Cheng's vision of others has always been very accurate!"
"Well, Brother Xian, I will work hard!"
...
Leaving from the crew of "Informer", Wu Cheng came to another crew of "Merry Christmas".
"Ka! Danny, you can let go of your performance! Although Brother Han plays your old bean, here we want to treat him like a friend, don't be so restrained!"
When Wu Chengcai entered the crew, he heard Zeng Zhiwei's unique hoarse voice sound.
The young man who was trained could only scratch his head and smile bitterly, then lower his head to think about the advice Zeng Zhiwei gave him. After watching it, Wu Yaohan couldn't help but reach out and pat his shoulder, and smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, we still have time, take it slowly. This drama will not be released until Christmas, so don't put too much pressure on yourself!"
"Brother Cheng, you are here!"
Wu Cheng came to the crew, and Guan Zhilin, who was doing nothing, noticed him, cheered, rushed towards him, took small steps, wearing a long skirt, like a butterfly wearing a flower.
Although Wu Cheng has been back for a long time, he has not come to the crew many times.
Moreover, there are three weird guys in the crew, including Wu Yaohan, Zeng Zhiwei and Xu Ke, and Wu Cheng is not worried that they will really mess up the movie. However, although Wu Yaohan is the director of this drama, in fact, the deputy director Zeng Zhiwei is directing it.
In terms of directorial ability, Zeng Zhiwei is still stronger than Wu Yaohan. As for Xu Ke, it is more like a so-called soybean. He is more watching from the side. If he finds a problem, he will stand up and say that other times, he is more studying silently.
Facing the Guan Xiangxian who was rushing towards him, Wu Cheng opened his hand helplessly, caught her, then turned around, removed the force, reached out and scraped her Yao nose, and said, "Naughty!"
"I miss you!" Faced with Wu Cheng's anger, she never got angry, but instead habitually pouted her pink and tender mouth and acted cute.
Wu Cheng ignored her because she just met last night.
However, facing this little girl who didn't want to let go of his arms, Wu Cheng couldn't just throw her away, making her cry, so he had to take him and walk towards Zeng Zhiwei and the others.
"Hello, Mr. Cheng!"
"Hello boss!"
Many people around him greeted Wu Cheng, and Wu Chengyi nodded to them.
Zeng Zhiwei and Xu Lao Monster came up, and Wu Yaohan also walked towards Wu Cheng, followed by Danny Chen Baiqiang. Xu Xiaofeng and Leslie Cheung, who were sitting under the parasol, also stood up.
The two of them were leisurely talking about musical topics, and they were having a great time.
"Mr. Cheng, why are you free to come here?" Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile.
"But come and care for it, I'm afraid you'll be lazy!" Wu Cheng smiled and said, "How is it? Is the shooting going smoothly?"
"It's not bad!" Wu Yaohan rubbed his hands and smiled, "Let's go, take a look!"
Wu Cheng nodded and said, "It's okay, you guys continue to take pictures. I'm just here to see. With you three here, I can't rest assured!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but chuckled. Speaking of which, Wu Cheng was really relieved. From the time the crew was formed to the present, he could count the number of times he came here with one hand. The producer should be...
However, his completely delegating power made these three guys who are only "coated men" in the director industry feel much more at ease.
If Wu Cheng doesn't come, their pressure will naturally not be so great, and they will be more comfortable to shoot. Even if there is anything wrong, they can discuss and reshoot it several times.
Comedy films like "Merry Christmas" can actually be very happy as long as the director does not put pressure on the actors. At least if there are two funny guys Wu Yaohan and Zeng Zhiwei together, everyone will not be worried, as long as they don't put too much pressure on themselves.
In fact, it is Wu Yaohan who is really under pressure. After all, he is a director, and if he doesn't film well, he will have the greatest responsibility. Moreover, it is his first time directing and he has little confidence in himself.
