159 [Trickster]
Just when Ye Jin helped Lin Qingxia understand the character, Mai Jiashang also found all the seven people he needed.
Yuan Xinyi, Li Kun, Tian Jun, Qian Yuesheng, Chen Long and Zhong Fa were all fine, and they accepted the invitation happily.
To be precise, Zhong Fa cried excitedly at that time. He has been a Dragon and Tiger Martial Artsman for so long and has not yet obtained an important role. This time he played one of the Three Treasures. Although he is not the protagonist, he has many scenes to appear, which is already a very good opportunity for him.
Yuan Xinyi was also very happy that Ye Jin invited him to play the villain. He followed Yuan Heping and did not get any important roles. Most of them were just supporting roles.
This time, being able to play a great villain with great martial arts is not only able to show his skills, but also perform his acting skills, which is naturally a good thing for him. Yuan Heping called him to express his gratitude to Ye Jin.
Yuan Richu complained on the phone that Ye Jin was not a friend enough, and even Sammo Hung became the starring actor, but he forgot his old friend.
Ye Jin can only say sorry for this.
Although Sammo Hung is not handsome, he is very chubby and has a distinctive feature. He is known as the most flexible fat man, and he still has some memory.
Moreover, although Sammo Hung is a martial artist, his acting skills are good. He has won the Best Actor Award twice. It can be said that he is both civil and military. Not to mention that he is a director and a producer, and he is also very good at promoting.
But Yuan Rich's skin and bone shape are very ordinary, just an ordinary person. Not like Ye Jin, just skin shape, the bone shape is pretty good, and he can still be transformed.
This makes Yuan Richu have no memory and it is not easy for people to remember. In his previous life, he also starred in the Guima Tianshi, Qimen Dunjia, Tianshi Crazy Evil, etc., but the drama is not popular.
In the end, even his own brother was unwilling to praise him anymore, but instead he promoted Zhen Zidan, who had a better image and temperament. Even his own brother was like this, what was Ye Jin?! If Yuan Richu was short of money and borrowed money from him, he would definitely do what he could, but just ask him to film.
Among the seven people, Gu Feng was unable to second it.
Xiao Runze's wife Yuan Jinlan just refused to let go, and Mai Jiashang had no choice.
"Mr. Ye, I'm really embarrassed. I really can't borrow Gu Feng." He said helplessly.
"Don't mind, it's not your fault." Ye Jin waved his hand and said, "Xiao stopped the artists and refused to let them go out to find extra money. Such unkind management will sooner or later something will happen."
Xiao still implements a large studio system. He signs artists by himself, supports artists by himself, makes movies by himself, and publishes movies by himself.
Under the system of the big studio, everyone is just a screw on the big studio, and no matter who is missing, Xiao can run it.
Just like the three major directors of Xiao, Hu Jinquan, Li Hanxiang, and Zhang Che, they have all left Xiao, but Xiao is still ranked first in Xiangjiang Film and its performance has not declined.
This is the benefit of the large studio system. Unlike Jiahe, without a single Bruce Lee, it is like the sky is falling.
But the big studio system also has a major drawback, that is, the system is rigid and inflexible. Everyone is dispatched by the company, and the company does whatever it wants, and pays as much as it says. As long as you dare to resist, you will be suppressed.
But as the saying goes, wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. A yearning for freedom is human nature and cannot be erased. If Xiao suppresses his own people like this, sooner or later, the people under its sect will rebel together.
At that time, no matter how big the family business is, it will be destroyed.
Ye Jin remembers that the wireless station under Xiao Runze's previous life also had a large studio system, which restricted the pay of personnel and restricted the work of personnel. As a result, many talent contracts in front and behind the scenes no longer renewed their contracts with it and went to the mainland to develop.
This has caused serious loss of talent on the wireless station and the quality of the series has declined significantly.
Once upon a time, the TVB dominates the mainland, which was a memory of several generations. From Shanghai, the Legend of the Condor Heroes to Genesis, the Golden Branches have caused a huge sensation in the mainland. However, after that, the TVB's popularity has dropped sharply in the mainland. Except for a few enthusiasts, basically no one appreciates it.
In contrast, Yu Zheng, who had worked at the Wireless TV, has successively produced hit TV series such as Gongsuoxinyu, Wang's Woman, New Smiling Proud Wanderer, Lu Zhen's Legend, and Story of Yanxi Palace. It can be seen that the Wireless TV is not without talent, but unfortunately it cannot retain talent.
When Mai Jiashang heard Ye Jin say this, he nodded, "The big studio system has long been eliminated by Hollywood. In other words, Xiangjiang is so backward, and he even treats it as a treasure. I think one day, Xiao will be swept into the garbage dump of history like the big studio system."
"Okay, let's not talk about it." Ye Jin waved his hand and said, "Since Gu Feng can't borrow it now, who should we consider?"
"Mr. Ye, I have a choice." Mai Jiashang said quickly.
"Who?! Please tell me." Ye Jin asked hurriedly.
"Shi Jian." Mai Jiashang suggested.
When Ye Jin heard this, his eyes lit up.
Like Huang Feihong, Shi Jian has become a symbol of the Xiangjiang film industry. When it comes to the treacherous man Jian, it is simply known to everyone, and has become synonymous with the treacherous man.
Shi Jian has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and is proficient in Southern Shaolin Fist, Mantis Fist, etc. He has started filming in the 1940s. He can be regarded as a senior in the film industry. He has been working in the film industry for decades, and has not only accumulated a well-known reputation, but also has superb acting skills.
Even Bruce Lee admired him and invited him to play the role of the Dragon and Tiger Fight. It was really appropriate for him to play the Eight-legged Kirin.
"Okay, just invite him." Ye Jin nodded.
On the other hand, Ding Shanxi also showed Ye Jin the list of the elders' starring roles.
Ye Jin took it and took a closer look, nodded, and saw that the roles he chose were pretty good.
Like Yu Zhengquan, Zhang Yu, he looks majestic and has the style of a grandparent.
Yu Tao is starring young actor Liu Yong. Liu Yong joined Jiahe in 1970s and once played supporting roles in movies such as Tangshan Brothers, Jingwumen, and Raptors Crossing the River. He played the lead role for the first time last year, playing the boxing champion of seven provinces, winning only 190,000 Hong Kong dollars in box office.
In his previous life, he left Jiahe and was highly valued after joining Xiao. He filmed a series of films such as the Adventure of Emperor Qianlong, Qianlong went to Yangzhou, Qianlong went to Jiangnan, Emperor Qianlong fought with the third girl, Emperor Qianlong fought his wits, and other films, which won numerous praises.
But unfortunately, he abused his wife twice. The first time he disfigured his wife Dai Liang, causing an uproar, causing the originally brilliant starry road to dim all night. Although he made a comeback afterwards, his momentum was no longer as good as before.
As for the remaining power of the villain, Chen Xing will be starring.
After starring in Dangkota Beach last year, Chen Xing became famous and became one of the most popular kung fu stars in Xiangjiang, and was once known as Bruce Lee.
Unfortunately, he didn't know how to cherish his feathers. After becoming famous, he would film as long as he gave money. The movies he starred in were all very poor in the box office, which made people see through his essence.
After knowing that he had left Wu Siyuan, he was not able to do anything at all, so fewer and fewer people were looking for him to film, and the pay for him was getting lower and lower.
Ding Shanxi invited him to play the villain because of his only remaining fame.
