At that time, Liu Zhenwei offered 300,000 pieces of remuneration and invited Zhong Zhentao to make a cameo appearance for 1 minute, but Zhong Zhentao looked disgusted and said: "300,000 yuan is too little, I am starting from 500,000." Liu Zhenwei said, "Who do you think you are?" You'll know it when you come. ”
Originally, Zhong Zhentao thought that he was very popular and should be paid a high film, but he did not expect to be punched in the face by Liu Zhenwei.
That day, Liu Zhenwei received a call from Wong Kar-wai, who said: "You come to help me shoot "East becomes West", and the actors have found you well. ”
After Liu Zhenwei listened, he quickly agreed, and then he went to see Wong Kar-wai and discussed it in person.
As soon as they met, Liu Zhenwei asked doubtfully: "What did you say before about "East becomes West"? ”
Wong Kar-wai casually said: "I don't know, you write your own script." ”
After Liu Zhenwei listened, he was so angry that he almost fainted. But the thought of setting up a company with Wong Kar-wai and being a community of interests hardened.
After that, Liu Zhenwei wrote the script while directing the actors to shoot the scene.
During that time, there will often be such a situation: "After shooting today, I don't know what to shoot tomorrow?" ”
During this period, Liu Zhenwei also had to hand over "Fang Shiyu" to Yuan Kui, seeing that the delivery date was almost over, but it was not half completed.
In desperation, Liu Zhenwei had to speed up the writing.
However, he still had to take some time to find a group performance, and soon, he thought of Zhong Zhentao, immediately called him, and said: "I will give you 300,000 pieces of remuneration, come and play a role, just one minute." ”
Zhong Zhentao listened, a look of disgust, said: "300,000 is too little, I am 500,000 to start, besides, I am such a big brand, how can I give you a dragon set?" ”
When Liu Zhenwei heard this, he immediately became angry: "Who do you think you are, I have a lot of big-name actors here, you will know it when you come." ”
After Liu Zhenwei finished speaking, Zhong Zhentao came to be interested and said, "I will arrive later." ”
Soon, Zhong Zhentao came to the crew of "East into West", where he saw Zhang Guorong, Liang Jiahui, Wang Zuxian and other people were all there, and he felt that it was not in vain.
The film is themed on comedy, and it is said that when the main actors are filming, they are always giggling and happy.
However, Liu Zhenwei only let Zhong Zhentao appear for a few minutes, and then let him receive a box lunch.
Zhong Zhentao felt very embarrassed, but more embarrassment was still behind. It turns out that most of the big stars like Zhang Guorong are played with zero remuneration, and Zhong Zhentao is still disgusted with 300,000 is too little, thinking of this, he is suddenly a little embarrassed.
However, after the broadcast of "East into West", it got a good box office, and Zhong Zhentao was also at ease.
Unexpectedly, after Zhong Zhentao got the film remuneration, he went to play mahjong with Jacky Cheung, Zhang Guorong, Maggie Cheung and others.
As a result, Jacky Cheung had bad luck and kept losing money. In order to win back some money, Jacky Cheung changed his position and changed his clothes, but unfortunately he lost in the end.
When Jacky Cheung confessed to being unlucky, he discovered a secret: "The other three sons are pitting him in partnership." But thinking that they were all good friends, Jacky Cheung did not say anything.
But Zhong Zhentao is different, when he played mahjong, he was very lucky, won a lot of money, and the 300,000 on hand has become millions.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, his wealth was ruined by his wife. In the end, Zhong Zhentao couldn't stand it and divorced his wife. Later, Zhong Zhentao married a new wife, and his life got better and better.
And then again, although Zhong Zhentao ran a dragon set in "East Becomes West", the audience thought that this was a classic movie and recognized Zhong Zhentao's acting skills.
I have to say that this movie is indeed a living treasure.
