Jet Li picked up Donnie Yen, took away 120 million salaries in ten minutes of appearance, and Wu Jing also followed suit, but in the end he didn't think that both of them suffered a big loss. Jet Li was once deeply involved in the R China turmoil, just because he took a salary of 120 million for the next Hollywood movie "The Mummy 3", although Jet Li is the actor second only to the protagonist in the play, but in fact, he played Qin Shihuang is not a good person, originally Qin Shihuang's first choice was not Jet Li, when director Robert En thought of Donnie Yen the first time he got the script.
But Donnie Yen directly rejected this opportunity after reading the script, after outsiders watched Chinese actors can play such a heavy supporting actor in Hollywood, it is already a very proud thing, so Donnie Yen's behavior of playing The Mummy 3 is also so that many audiences can't guess the reason, but Donnie Yen's refusal is also a success for Jet Li to pick up the leak. However, when Jet Li took over the role of Qin Shi Huang, he probably never thought that not only did he not become famous because of this Hollywood blockbuster, but he was questioned by domestic audiences, and Jet Li's value at that time was actually not low, so although he was Donnie Yen who picked up the leak, the asking price was also very high.
Although he only had ten minutes of scenes in the film, he still took away 120 million in salary, not only that, he also brought his little junior brother Wu Jing, the director also let him play a small role in the film, originally most of the audience thought that Jet Li made a lot of money this time, after all, not only got 120 million, there was a chance to make his acting career go to a higher level, but also let his junior brother Wu Jing also follow suit, but I didn't expect that after the film was released, I knew that they had suffered a big loss. It turns out that the role of Qin Shi Huang is too distorted in the eyes of domestic audiences, portraying Qin Shi Huang, the emperor of China's ancient times, as too violent and one-sided, and also added a lot of Western elements.
For example, Qin Shi Huang was accompanied by a three-headed dragon, and even cursed by a witch, which is completely a Western movie with Chinese element skin, some people think it is a completely bad film, and the most serious even Jet Li's behavior of taking over this villain role is called R Hua. In fact, it is not difficult to understand the anger of the Chinese people, after all, many Chinese characters in Hollywood movies are very negative, Zou Zhaolong once said that he would never take on the villain role of Hollywood, because it was damaging the image of the Chinese themselves, and Jet Li estimated that he did not expect that his reputation was almost ruined by this film, and he also suffered a big loss, no wonder Donnie Yen was unwilling to win this opportunity to enter Hollywood.
And the junior brother Wu Jing who followed him was not much better, and was also pitted by the director, because Wu Jing's shot was only seven seconds after the movie was released, and a knife was solved by Jet Li, and many years later Wu Jing was obsessed with this, saying that it took three days to shoot the mummy 3, so it seemed that it was really properly cut by the director. I have to say that until now, I am afraid that this drama is a thorn in Wu Jing's heart, and many times it is often ridiculed on the show, especially compared with Jet Li, which inevitably makes Wu Jing fall into a kind of embarrassment that the coffee table is not as high as Jet Li.
I have to say that Wu Jing and Jet Li were both pitted by "The Mummy 3", and after eating this big loss, they also thoroughly understood that Hollywood films cannot be messed up, and it is no wonder Donnie Yen will decline. What do you think about this? #Headline Creation Challenge ##媒体人周刊 #
