Oriental Pearl Tower.
For more than 20 years, the films produced have dominated the markets of many countries.
In that glorious era, celebrities’ outfits often triggered countless people to follow suit.
Nowadays, although it is still one of the world's trade centers, its film industry has declined.
Employees of an actor entertainment company receive a fixed salary every month, and by filming a movie or something, they can only earn extra money at most.
Some actors from the Oriental Pearl Tower have been filming for their entire lives, but are still renting houses today, and some even have to borrow money to rent.
The mainland entertainment industry is thriving, and celebrities can buy an apartment for every movie they shoot.
It’s impossible to rent a house, just buy it if you like it.
For them, houses worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions are basically standard.
Therefore, one can imagine what kind of paradise the mainland is for the actors of Oriental Pearl Tower under such circumstances.
The message sent by Jiang Gangmeng.
It almost shocked the industry.
"Hu Yibao is looking for actors at the Oriental Pearl Tower!"
"The mainland box office giant has extended an olive branch to the Oriental Pearl Entertainment Group."
"Urgently looking for actors who can film a zombie movie."
"Hu Yibao wants to make a zombie movie!"
…
News like this caused a stir in the Oriental Pearl entertainment circle.
At the same time, the actor standards sent by Jiang Gangmeng were also announced.
Oriental Pearl Tower.
In a film and television shooting base that looks like it’s been there for fifty or sixty years, a man with disheveled hair, a thin face and small eyes is telling the actors about the next dance moves.
"When he jumps up later, you turn around and take it out."
"Step lightly and move quickly."
He used to be a Peking Opera singer.
Later, because the Peking Opera market was not doing well, he became a martial arts instructor with the help of a friend's introduction and with his good foundation. He is now shooting a martial arts movie.
I have been doing this for more than ten years.
Although martial arts movies are no longer popular in today's society, he has no choice but to follow suit since the higher-ups want to make them.
After all, it is a job and the salary is pretty good.
It's just a bit tiring. There's no nine-to-five job, and I sleep on the set almost every day.
To make a living.
Neither is easy.
At this time.
"Po!"
The director yelled at him.
Ling and Bao turned to look at Director Xu and asked, "What's going on, Director?"
This drama was filmed with Director Xu.
Director Xu shouted, "Come here quickly, I'll give you a chance!"
"Huh!?" Ling and Bao listened to Director Xu's words and walked over doubtfully.
In recent years, the Oriental Pearl film and television industry has become increasingly weak, and there are no more opportunities.
Even some big stars are in a bad situation now.
Come up to me.
Ling and Bao looked at Director Xu and asked, "Director, what opportunity?"
Director Xu did not reply to Ling and Bao immediately. Instead, he looked them up and down carefully, and then nodded with satisfaction.
"Um!"
“Very good.”
Looking at Director Xu's smile, Ling and Bao felt that what he said was a bit scary, "What's wrong, Director?"
"Have you heard of Hu Yibao?" Director Xu looked at Ling and Bao and asked.
Ling and Bao nodded.
In the past few months, I always hear things about Hu Yibao.
Hu Yibao is now a prominent figure in the entire China.
Not only is he good at singing.
When it comes to making movies, no one can compare to him.
The high box office and high reputation of the three comedy films he directed and starred in directly pushed him to the top of the Chinese comedy film industry.
Many actors around him are wondering when they can work with him, including some once-popular big names.
But there is no way.
What made Ling and Bao admire him even more was that Hu Yibao donated 5 billion during the last major disaster.
He donated almost all the money he earned from filming movies and selling albums.
This is more than what some billionaires with a net worth of hundreds of billions or companies with a market value of trillions of dollars have donated.
In Ling and Bao's minds, Hu Yibao should be the kind of person who truly treats money as dirt.
"This time, he wants to find someone in our Oriental Pearl Entertainment Circle to shoot a zombie movie." Director Xu said.
"Zombie movie!?" Ling and Bao were shocked. They seemed a little confused as to why Hu Yibao, who was so famous in comedy movies, wanted to make a zombie-themed movie.
Although, he also likes this kind of subject matter.
But as far as the current market is concerned, it is really unpopular.
"That's not the point." Director Xu said calmly. He had already anticipated Ling and Bao's reactions. Even this morning, when he received a call from Jiang Gangmeng, his reaction was even more surprising. As a director, he couldn't understand why Hu Yibao wanted to make this zombie movie that had been completely rejected by the market.
"The point is, Director Jiang Gangmeng, Hu Yibao's assistant director, contacted us and gave us the criteria for actors in two zombie films. I think you're a good fit."
As he spoke, Director Xu took out two pieces of paper from his briefcase and handed them to Ling and Bao.
"This is the standard for actors, take a look."
Ling and Bao took it and looked at the actor's requirements on it.
The starring roles of [Mr. Vampire] and [One-Eyebrow Taoist Priest] have the same requirements.
[He is 1.7 to 1.8 meters tall, has a righteous temperament, but also a bit of a sinister air. He has an ordinary appearance, a very thin build, and a bony face. He is about 40 years old.]
In terms of appearance, I do meet the requirements.
