As of today, "Wolf Warrior 2" 48 days, the box office reached 5.6 billion, ranking third, the release key was postponed to September 28th, as far as the current situation is concerned, to reach 6 billion or a bit mysterious.
Previously, Wu Jing admitted at the film conference that Lu Jingshan was not originally a candidate for the female lead, because the other party temporarily said that he wanted to add money, so he changed his good friend Lu Jingshan to save the scene.
"Later, we looked for a heroine, and suddenly when we were going to shoot the next day, the agent went to the producer and said that he wanted to increase the price, because the wolf had money."
Wu Jing refused on the spot, bluntly saying to the actors, not accepting sky-high salaries, and only choosing the right ones and not expensive ones.
"We wolf warriors have money spent on weapons, on filming, on production, on tanks, airplanes, cannons. Actors, we only choose the right ones and not the expensive ones, okay? The result was not happy."
Just when everyone was speculating about who was the "temporary mark-up" actress that Wu Jing had originally set, director Mao Weining dao broke the truth, and it was Xu Jiawen, a New Zealand mixed-race who played the heroine in the Sino-US co-production of "Ultimate Victory".
In the face of the "Wolf Warrior" with a win-win reputation and box office, when the box office reaches 3.9 billion, Wu Jing will definitely give them a compensation after responding, and the major media have regretted Xu Jiawen's miss, afraid to cry in the toilet.
Just yesterday afternoon, Xu Jiawen finally stood up to publish the Chinese and English version of the long Weibo voice, the film is very complicated, there will be some unexpected results, media friends and netizens are easily misled, while congratulating director Wu Jing's success and Lu Jingshan's wonderful performance.
"What needs to be clarified is that according to the work contract I negotiated with Wolf Warrior 2, the film remuneration is 200,000 yuan (and it is agreed that there will be no additional cost for shooting in Africa for 10 days), so there is no markup in it."
Most of the comments believe that although Wu Jing slammed the door, the price increase on the first day of shooting lost his identity. In view of the Weibo that previously liked director Mao Weining and said that he hoped that "agents would think more about the career and future of actors", this reiteration of the incident seems to have the idea of changing agents.
As we all know, Wu Jing mortgaged his villa to make a loan, invested more than 80 million yuan to participate in the "Wolf Warrior 2" gamble, in terms of actor remuneration, Wu Jing did achieve the basic principle of "only choosing the right one and not choosing expensive".
Known as "real and real", the highest-paid villain Frank Grillo was paid only $200,000 (1.3 million yuan), and Zhang Han, who served as a "small fresh meat", promised a salary of 1 million yuan.
It is worth mentioning that our "Secretary Of Dakang" Wu Gang", Zhao Donglai Director "Ding Haifeng, Yu Qian and a team of old drama bones in the interview, did not talk about the relevant remuneration, netizens speculated that it may be "friendship price".
Wu Gang even joked about Wu Jingtai's power at the spit conference of "Wolf Warrior 2".
"Playing for three months, suffering a lot of injuries, the director responded with a goodbye, disappeared after filming, saw that he became an Internet celebrity, only to send a message to come and participate in the press conference, thinking that this is rubbing heat, I can take advantage of the opportunity to invite some media friends, I feel a little powerful."
To this end, Wu Jing generously admitted, and also explained: "I have no money, saying that I rub the heat, I am rubbing, rubbing is the respect of the old artist for the film, such actors are getting less and less." ”
Wu Gang hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't call me an old artist!" 'Old' is still far away, I am the artist Xiao Wu. ”
