Director Zhao is a real talent scout.
Just because he had watched several movies that Manman had filmed before, he was sure that he could play the role in his own movie, so he spent a lot of time and energy to find Manman and arrange his schedule.
In short, Manman’s ability to make a name for himself on the big screen in Hong Kong is inseparable from Director Zhao.
"Swordsman" was released and earned 10 million in box office revenue in a short period of time.
And the upward trend is very obvious.
Director Zhao told Manman that he estimated the box office of this movie would be around 20 million.
As a martial arts film, this result is quite impressive.
And there is a high possibility that he will be nominated for the Best Supporting Actor at next year's Academy Awards.
For any newcomer, nomination is recognition, and whether or not they win the award is not that important.
Regarding the film promotion and celebration banquet, Director Zhao asked Manman if he wanted to fly over to do the promotion and make an appearance, after all, this was also his first movie.
And next, he will have a TV series coming out.
Manman couldn't make up his mind, so he asked Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng: "It's winter vacation now, of course you can go! After the movie is over, you can ask Director Zhao to burn a videotape for us so we can see what our first martial arts movie is like!"
"Mom, I don't have many roles. I just play the young male lead!" Manman felt a little embarrassed, worried that Li Jinfeng and the others had too high expectations of him and thought he had a lot of roles.
"Silly boy, even if you only have one minute, we're happy! You should learn from your second brother. He only made a one-minute cameo appearance, and almost everyone knew about it!"
Yuanyuan and Manman are different.
Manman still knows how to be shy and embarrassed, but Yuanyuan doesn’t.
When I came back, I told my family and friends that I had participated in the movie.
The total shot was one minute long, and it was quite funny, but he described him as the male lead, as if the film would lose its color without him.
"My second brother is indeed different from ordinary people. Mom, you don't know this. When I came back, several actors brought him gifts and said they were coming to the capital to see him!"
Li Jinfeng is no longer surprised by her second son's popularity.
However, she didn't expect that before Manman broke into the Hong Kong entertainment circle, the naughty boy Yuanyuan had already become a "core" figure, and people still missed her even after she left.
"Then he must be so proud of himself!"
Yuanyuan has been training since he came back, but he will be back during the Chinese New Year this year.
"Yeah! He was quite proud when he was giving gifts! Now many people are waiting to watch his movie." He smiled gently.
"I won't say anything about your second brother. Even if I put him in a pigpen, he can survive. Maybe he can even borrow two pig's trotters from the piggery and braise them!" said Li Jinfeng.
Manman laughed dryly a few times. Although he didn't express his opinion, his thoughts were almost the same.
"Okay, son, we're all going to be under the spotlight in the future. This trip is both an opportunity and an experience for you. Just go and consider it a chance to broaden your horizons!"
Li Jinfeng said this, and Manman also mustered up the courage, "Okay, then I'll go! I'll try to come back before the New Year."
Last year, Manman was not at home because he was filming a TV show.
In addition, Yuanyuan and the others were not around, so Mr. Lu did not have a smooth New Year.
No matter what I say this year, I must spend time with Mr. Lu.
In addition, my family has achieved great results this year, so I must be there no matter what.
