Chapter 4 Gambling Saint (【Self-killer】
"Mr. Zuo" Yin Tianchou jumped off the stage and quickly stepped forward to reach out his hand: "Mr. Zuo, when did you come back?"
"Just come back." Zuo Xiaoyou stood up, shook hands with Yin Tianchou, and turned his head to look at Liu Piaopiao. Although the 18-year-old Cecilia Cheung is not very stunning in appearance, her youthful aura is enough to kill many men in seconds.
"I've only been away for a few months, and I'll have a girlfriend so soon," Zuo Xiaoyou teased.
Yin Tianchou said with a shy look on his face, "Love is coming, it can't be stopped." He waved to Liu Piaopiao: "Piaopiao, come here to introduce you to someone."
"Who is it?" Liu Piaopiao just noticed Zuo Xiaoyou's tall and handsome appearance, outstanding temperament, and exquisite dress made Liu Piaopiao feel inferior. Fortunately, Yin Tianchou seemed to be his friend. Since he was a friend, there was not much nervousness.
"This is Mr. Zuo Xiaoyouzuo, the mentor who gives me dreams and guides me." Yin Tianchou introduced the two of them: "Mr. Zuo, this is my girlfriend Liu Piaopiao. We are sure that the relationship has not been long, but I will not marry her in my life."
From this sentence, we can see how much Yin Tianchou loves Liu Piaopiao. At the same time, from Liu Piaopiao's gentle eyes, we can also see how touched Liu Piaopiao is.
For a woman who comes out to sell, it is not easy to find a man who loves her, and it is even more difficult to find a man who loves her deeply like Yin Tianchou.
Zuo Xiaoyou can only say: "I wish you a blessing, when will you get married?"
Hearing the word "marriage", Yin Tianchou smiled bitterly: "I have nothing now, so why should I marry Piaopiao? So I want to do something first. At least I will make a movie with characters first, so I can make money to support my family."
"I don't care." Liu Piaopiao interrupted him: "I just need to be with you. It doesn't matter if the wedding is not a wedding. Even if you don't marry me, it doesn't matter. Just let me be with you."
"Yo" Zuo Xiaoyou laughed: "Mr. Yin, I didn't expect you to be a bachelor for so many years. You just got such a top-notch one after you got the best luck in love. It's amazing."
"Mr. Zuo, don't laugh at me." Yin Tianchou smiled bitterly, but Liu Piaopiao's words moved him to cry, holding Liu Piaopiao's hand: "I will definitely treat you well in my life."
"It doesn't matter if you are good to me. Anyway, you said you want to support me for the rest of your life, so you are not allowed to drive me away." Liu Piaopiao is worthy of being a woman who has been on the stage. Although she longs for love deep down, she still has a very rational side when facing reality and has made the worst plans. Maybe this is her inner inferiority complex, a sold woman. What else can she expect?
"No." Yin Tianchou made a promise, perhaps to make Liu Piaopiao more at ease, Yin Tianchou added: "Absolutely not."
"This is almost the same." Liu Piaopiao smiled and stretched out her hand to Zuo Xiaoyou: "Hello, Mr. Zuo."
"Hello." Shaking hands with Liu Piaopiao. Zuo Xiaoyou asked: "You are scheming dramas."
"Yes," Liu Piaopiao said: "Originally, Tian Qiu was going to play the male lead in a movie not long ago, but it was replaced in the end. It was so annoying."
"You can't say that, sister-in-law." The little bastard who was speechless said: "Brother Tianchou was replaced for his sister-in-law, otherwise Brother Tianchou would be a big star now."
"Hey, what are you talking nonsense?" Yin Tianchou kicked him over: "The movies have nothing to do with Piaopiao. It's because I lack my own ability, so the other party will replace me."
Liu Piaopiao said nothing. She had experienced this incident personally and knew that if it weren't for her, Du Juan'er would not have replaced Yin Tianchou. If she hadn't been replaced, maybe Yin Tianchou had already entered the film industry and became a big star.
That's why Liu Piaopiao followed Yin Tianchou regardless of her status. Yin Tianchou sacrificed too much for her, even for a lifetime of future.
Liu Piaopiao looked at Yin Tianchou: You sacrificed your whole life for me, and I will repay you for the rest of my life.
"It's okay to change it." Zuo Xiaoyou patted Yin Tianchou on the shoulder: "Mr. Yin, do you want to be the male lead in my new film?"
"ah"
The next day, Yin Tianchou signed a contract issued by Jiahe Company, with a pay of 100,000 yuan, plus the male lead script.
The name of the movie is Gambling Saint.
This is a very simple movie, and it is a work that follows the trend. The most important thing is that the production fee is only 2 million.
The highest actor's salary is Yin Tianchou's 100,000 yuan, and the other is the male supporting actor's undercover Uncle Da, 50,000 yuan.
Since he destroyed a criminal gang with Yin Tianchou, the relationship between undercover Uncle Da and Yin Tianchou has become close. Moreover, because Uncle Da was shot twice, according to the injury report, he is no longer suitable for the role of undercover, and it is even more impossible to be a policeman. So Uncle Da received a ration for the Affiliate Fee and completed the retirement procedures, he bid farewell to Jingjie and concentrates on being an uncle who sent a lunch box in the crew.
Uncle Da didn't expect that he would get the opportunity to star in a movie. Later, Zuo Xiaoyou told him that it was recommended by Yin Tianchou. Because Yin Tianchou said that Uncle Da's acting skills were very good, and Zuo Xiaoyou thought his image was very suitable for the third uncle in the movie, so he invited him to make a movie. Although the 50,000 yuan was not much, for an uncle who gave a lunch box, what else would he want to have a bicycle.
In addition, the heroine is not Liu Piaopiao. Liu Piaopiao's acting skills are too bad, and she has done it, which is a stain that a star cannot tolerate. If a chicken can become a big star, it is too unfair for those actresses who focus on acting.
In the end, Zuo Xiaoyou found two actresses in the mainland, one was Cai Ming and the other was Dameiyuan.
Cai Ming plays the role of Ng Junru in the original version, and Da Meiyuan naturally replaced Zhang Min's role.
As for the remaining characters, they were all old actors who were powerful but not worth a lot of money, so the crew got together.
Zuo Xiaoyou personally served as director and producer, striving to make a nonsensical movie that is better than the original work.
There is a blind spot in the movie "Gambling Saint". Zhou Axing originally wanted to leave Xiangjiang and return to the mainland. However, there was no explanation in the movie, so Zhou Axing came back, and even changed her clothes and tucked her breasts.
When Zuo Xiaoyou watched this movie, he felt that there was a lack of a link here, and he didn't know if the funds were not allowed. He didn't shoot it or he felt it was inappropriate after it was filmed. He cut it off.
In short, Zuo Xiaoyou is absolutely not allowed to occur in this bug.
In other aspects, Zuo Xiaoyou also made appropriate modifications based on the background of the times, such as Zhou Axing's identity.
When I was filming the Gambling Saint, it was 1990. At that time, Xiangjiang had not returned yet, so Zhou Axing's identity was a mainland boy who came to Xiangjiang to seek refuge with his relatives, highlighting the rustic spirit of the mainland. But now it is 1999. Xiangjiang has returned for two years, and it is looking for death. So Zuo Xiaoyou slightly modified Zhou Axing's identity. Although he was from the mainland, his parents died and he had to come to Xiangjiang to seek refuge with his relatives.
As for the special function of the perspective eye, it is used to view the sewer pipe. It is decisively thrown into the trash can.
At that time, the people of Xiangjiang were really prejudiced against the mainland. Of course, this was also related to being influenced by Dai Wan and the United Kingdom. The fact that I was hated internationally was too common, but this also reflects the profoundness of Chinese characters.
The rabbit was wearing a hat, which was a word of injustice.
Although this is just a commercial film that follows the trend, the God of Gambling in this era was a movie from ten years ago, so it is not considered following the trend until now. Because the one who followed the trend and made a gambling film at the time failed, and no one dared to touch it until now.
Zuo Xiaoyou dared to take advantage of the world to shoot a gambling film, which actually made Zou Wenhuai very unpopular, but who made this movie require it to be made by the Americans and appointed Zuo Xiaoyou as the director and producer of the movie. Fortunately, the budget for this movie is only 1.5 million. Even if it cannot be released, it can recover the cost by selling CDs.
In 1999, HKD 1.5 million was nothing, and I couldn't afford to hire a third-rate star.
After preparing the crew, the Gambler started filming in a low-key manner.
According to the custom of Xiangjiang, you must first worship the god when you start the movie. After worshiping the god, the crew will start shooting.
Zuo Xiaoyou sat in the director's seat and took the first set of shots with a camera.
The reason why he worked as a director was to learn how to make movies in the future. His current strength is really too strong, so he needs to shoot some higher, faster and stronger movies to pave the way for his future.
It's just right to start the directorial journey from this 1.5 million small crew.
Because the crew's funding was limited, Zuo Xiaoyou did not turn on the filming at the beginning, but watched the performance of the actors. If he felt that the effect was not good, he would continue to turn off the shooting until he had a satisfactory effect. He said: "It's great, but it can be better, do it again." Then he turned on the filming, the effect was very good, and it saved film.
In this way, a month later, the movie was successfully completed. Then another half a month of post-production, and the film finally took shape. After watching it personally, Zuo Xiaoyou felt that there was still some improvement, but the funds were limited, so he could only do this.
Even so, this version of the Gambler is two levels higher than the original Gambler. At least the logic errors are basically gone, and the picture is more refined. In addition, Zuo Xiaoyou's shooting method is not turned on, so his acting skills are absolutely above the level.
Among them, Cai Ming's acting skills from the mainland really allowed the local buns of Xiangjiang to see what acting skills are. Even the old actors in Xiangjiang were admired and admired.
In comparison, Dameiyuan is still a complete newcomer and has a very bad acting skills. Fortunately, it is not worse than the original Zhang Min.
In this way, Zuo Xiaoyou handed over the copy of the movie to the company and decided to release it in the summer schedule on July 15th.
There are still twenty days left before the release.
I still haven't had a good rest and I feel a little chest tightness. But there are two days left for double monthly tickets, so what should I do? Alas, please recommend the ticket. To be continued.
