Unscientific Movie King

Chapter 70 Kung Fu
"Sister Jin, isn't there a big crew that allows people to play important roles regardless of their background or status?"

Qin Chuan asked unwillingly.

He is not afraid of giving, but his giving will not be rewarded.

It’s awkward to think about spending three or four months acting in a drama that is destined to flop.

I acted when I had no money and was hungry. Now I have more than 100,000 yuan in hand, and I really don’t want to let myself down.

If nothing works, I'll just have to stay at home.

He knew that 2005 was the boom period for TV dramas. The Legend of Sword and Fairy, The Inspector General of the Song Dynasty, The Bright Sword, Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, The Seven Fairies, KO One, The Mute Bride, Happiness is Like a Flower, Fortune, Eight Heroes, The Prince Who Turns into a Frog, Dae Jang Geum, Number One Under Heaven, The Emperor Wu of Han, Little Fish and Flower…

These dramas were all broadcast in 2005 and production and filming began in 2004.

Spring will be over soon. Just hold on. In half a year this year will be over. It’s not that we can’t wait.

"Yes, top directors don't care about the actors' background or status when choosing a movie." Jin Lian said with great force: "But the requirements are relatively high. In addition to strength, you also need luck."

This is a great era, and people from grassroots backgrounds can also have the opportunity to succeed.

Those big directors all run their own companies and have a lot of say in the crew. They have the final say on who to cast for what role.

Whether for the sake of art or for one's own ideas, when it comes to casting, it is generally better to use the right ones rather than the expensive ones.

What is right?
Having acting skills and talent doesn’t necessarily make the cut. Sometimes the director may just feel that your temperament doesn’t match the role, or that you look awkward, and so he or she won’t want you.

Anyway, luck plays a big part.

Qin Chuan perked up. He was least afraid of challenges: "Who is it? Which crew? I'll go meet him."

"Director Zhou Xingchi's Kung Fu crew, if you're not afraid of death, go and meet them. The casting hasn't been announced yet, but I guess there will be news in a while. If you're brave enough, I can give you my resume first."

One actor a year, Zhou Xingchi for a century.

It’s said that there are best actor winners every year, but there’s only one Stephen Chow in a hundred years.

There are probably few Chinese people who have not watched a Stephen Chow movie.

His representative works are too numerous to count.

Zhou Xingchi is famous not only in Asia, but also abroad.

Looking at actors all over the world, there are only a few who can create their own independent acting style, but in China, there is one.

That is Zhou Xingchi's nonsensical style.

As an actor, Zhou Xingchi is very famous, and as a director, he is still very famous.

According to his resume, he started to become a director in 1994, and his debut work was From Beijing with Love.

But those who are familiar with him know that as early as the time of "Fight Back to School" and "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One", he basically had the final say in the crew.

This big shot is a freak, and his directing style has driven many artists crazy.

Not everyone can withstand it.

A rookie like Qin Chuan would only be beaten and cry if he went up there.

Besides, for a director of this level, people who want to audition can line up for several kilometers, including many top-notch celebrities.

No matter how you look at it, there's no way Qin Chuan will be selected.

Qin Chuan started the discussion seriously: "Okay, thank you Sister Jin, if it's convenient, can you give me some news about the Kung Fu crew, what the specific content is, and what roles are there."

The film had not yet been released and there was no information on the Internet, so he didn't know the details of the casting.

Only insiders like Jinlian have wide channels and know a lot of information.

But now Qin Chuan also knows.

Of course he knew what Kung Fu movies were, but he couldn't say it, because even if he did, he wouldn't be able to explain it clearly.

In this movie, Qin Chuan feels that apart from the protagonist, the roles that are suitable for him and more interesting are Brother Chen and Jiang Bao.

"I..." Jinlian was speechless: "Do you know what you are talking about? Do you really want to audition?"

Will Zhou Xingchi’s drama be popular?

It will be a hit, 100% sure, because in the past ten years, Stephen Chow has never failed, and has always topped the Hong Kong box office charts. But his movies are not easy to be in, the difficulty is very high, hell level.

Playing Dandelion produced by Tangren, Qin Chuan's competitor is Hu Ge, a little Karami who is still in school.

When acting in Zhou Xingchi's movies, your competitors are the best actor, veteran actors with excellent acting skills, and various talented actors.

There is heaven and earth between the two.

"Sister Jin, please help me get the information about the Kung Fu crew as soon as possible. You are more familiar with the information channels than I am. Please pay more attention to the crew's latest developments and notify me as soon as there is any movement."

Jinlian: “…”

She swore that Qin Chuan was the most difficult artist she had ever coached.

After hanging up the phone, Jinlian smiled again.

Qin Chuan is not without ambition, he is just too ambitious.

I just don’t know if my strength can keep up.

For some reason, she was looking forward to it.

……

"Hey, Mr. Cai, I, Qin Chuan, will not participate in our company's Dandelion TV series project."

"Alian, what's going on?" Cai Yinong thought that this was an attempt to suppress Qin Chuan: "It's a rare opportunity, let the young people try more."

Qin Chuan has a very good reputation in A Chinese Ghost Story, and she knows all this.

She turned a blind eye to Jinlian's risky actions to promote Qin Chuan's song.

I simply feel that this young actor has great potential and is worth cultivating. Investing in him now will reap huge rewards in the future.

She is very optimistic about Qin Chuan in the play Dandelion.

She would not be happy if Jinlian suppressed her.

"Boss Cai, it's not that I don't agree. I've talked till my lips are worn out, my saliva is dry, my tongue is numb, but he refuses to act."

"Now he is fully focused on conquering Zhou Xingchi's Kung Fu crew, and he won't listen to anyone."

Cai Yinong smiled and asked, "What do you think?"

"As artist directors, our job is to serve the artists. I have no choice but to fully support him."

"You two are quite motivated. Have you ever thought about what will happen if you fail to put your skills to the test and the male lead here is lost?"

"Just accept your fate. He said he can make it anyway."

Jinlian and Qin Chuan are one, and she did not harm Qin Chuan in front of Cai Yinong.

From a work perspective, no one wants Qin Chuan to become famous more than her.

Qin Chuan chose to take on the tough task of Kung Fu. Even if she didn't agree, it would be fine. But if she agreed, she would definitely support him with all her strength.

"Okay, I hope he can get through it." Cai Yinong didn't persuade him anymore.

Qin Chuan is talented, but also a little undisciplined.

Young people are like this when they first enter society. They are arrogant and stubborn. They will be fine after being beaten by society a few times.

Well, this incident can help temper his temper. After sitting at home for half a year, he will learn to be obedient.

Beijing, rental house.

Qin Chuan has already obtained some information about the Kung Fu crew from Jin Lian. It is very little, just a few characters.

But that was enough for him.

Because his original intention was not to really let Jinlian collect information, but to use this as an excuse to cheat openly.

Picking up a pen, he wrote down the first character in the notebook.

"My name is Jiangbao. I was born in the Magic City in XXX. Since I was fifteen, I have lived in this place called Pig Cage City..."
