It has been half a month since the filming of "Infernal Affairs" started. It is the end of November. Xiangjiang has finally passed the long summer vacation and the weather is getting colder.
"Achu, you're back!"
Zhang Chu returned to the capital a few days ago to attend the mainland premiere of "Hurricane Rescue".
Although it was deleted, most of the action scenes were still retained, but the excessively bloody scenes were removed.
After its release, it earned over 10 million box office in just 3 days.
Facts have once again proved that the mainland's film market is not in a slump, but there are not many films that interest the audience and cannot stimulate the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies.
The box office in Hong Kong finally surpassed the 60 million Hong Kong dollars of "Shaolin Soccer" in its third week of release, becoming the box office champion in Hong Kong film history.
Now, the only thing left in front of "Hurricane Rescue" is the broken ship.
And in the third weekend, it also achieved reverse growth in box office.
If this momentum continues, it may be difficult to completely sink the ship, but it is still very promising to become the first Hong Kong film to have a box office of over 100 million.
In addition, the box office in Baodao has exceeded 100 million yuan, and the cumulative box office in Southeast Asian countries has also exceeded the 100 million yuan mark.
Of course, Japan's contribution is also indispensable. Although Zhang Chu once embarrassed the Japanese people during a Sino-Japanese fighting exchange event, this move actually made the Japanese people's worship of Zhang Chu even more fanatical.
As of today, it has only been released for half a month and has already earned 1 billion yen at the box office.
It is expected to exceed the 2.7 billion yen box office of the previous "Shaolin Soccer".
I heard from Chen Lan that the release of the film in Europe has been basically settled, and all that remains is to launch it in North America.
The high box office of "Hurricane" has also given Zhang Chu another surge in fame.
This time back to the mainland, Wang Jinghua sent Zhang Chuliang a bunch of endorsement invitations.
To Zhang Chu's surprise, another foreign cola brand actually offered him a one-year endorsement contract of US$350, and was willing to pay for him to terminate the contract with Tianfu.
Zhang Chu's attitude towards this was naturally: let's play.
Zhang Chu loves money, but is not greedy for money, and he knows more about what money can be made and what money cannot be made.
If he really terminated the contract with Tianfu for money, I'm afraid that if he signed the contract today, his brand would be ruined that day.
Who else would be willing to follow an idol who never keeps his word and forgets his righteousness at the sight of profit?
Zhang Chu also once again explained to Wang Jinghua that all endorsements would only be from domestic ones and all endorsement invitations from foreign brands would be rejected.
Since we want to establish a person, we must establish the person firmly.
After finishing his domestic promotional activities, Zhang Chu returned to Xiangjiang without stopping.
He didn't even bother to take a night's rest in Shenzhen, and his condition was naturally extremely bad at the moment.
"Are you... okay?"
Seeing that Zhang Chu seemed to have lost half his life, Liu Weiqiang was also shocked.
"Airsickness!"
Ah!
Liu Weiqiang laughed out loud when he heard this. A man who dared to jump out of a helicopter actually got airsick.
If you don't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
"Achu, you should go back to the hotel and rest first. Your current state..."
With his last breath left, Liu Weiqiang was worried that Zhang Chu would die on the set, let alone filming.
"It's okay, I'll just take a rest."
Zhang Chu knew that the planned shooting period of "Infernal Affairs" was very short, and he had been working hard since the second day of filming.
This trip to the mainland to promote "Hurricane Rescue" has been delayed for several days, and we must catch up on the progress as soon as possible.
Zhang Chu is a typical person who takes money to do things. Since he received a salary of 3 million yuan, don't be afraid of hard work.
Who knows, just after Zhang Chu finished speaking, before Liu Weiqiang said anything, someone on the side said something strange and irritated.
"If it doesn't work, don't show off. There are so many of us waiting for you, pretending to be dead, who are you trying to bluff? Hey, Dean, do you believe it or not? You are airsick. If you have to find an excuse, find a better one. We all know that you are legitimate now." Hong, you are playing a big role."
What the hell are you talking about?
Zhang Chu turned his head and looked over, and at a glance he saw the actor who played the silly and strong character in the play rolling his eyes and curling his lips.
Staying with him is Lin Di'an, who also plays Han Chen's bodyguard in the play and is also the action director of the crew.
"Aze, please stop saying a few words, Achu, he... did not mean it, don't worry about it."
Lin Di'an looked embarrassed. If you knew you shouldn't have stayed here, it was an unreasonable disaster.
"Say less, why should I say less? We are blowing the cool breeze here, people don't know how cool it is."
This isn't over yet.
Zhang Chu looked at the Xiangjiang actor named Du Wenze at this moment, his eyes getting colder and colder.
He plays Chen Yongren, while Du Wen plays a silly and strong character. The two of them have a lot of rivalry scenes.
But every time he plays opposite Du Wenze, this guy will always make things difficult for him.
The entire crew knows that Zhang Chu does not speak Cantonese, so as long as they play against him, most of the actors can speak Mandarin.
Even the king Liu Dehua is no exception.
Only this Du Wenze not only always speaks Cantonese, but also speaks very fast.
Of course, Zhang Chu had to endure it even if he felt unhappy.
After all, this was not the reason for him to fall out, and he ignored it if it spread.
But Du Wenze changed his lines from time to time, and Zhang Chu couldn't understand what he was saying, so he followed the script and made several jokes.
Usually, they steal the spotlight and block Zhang Chu's body. There are endless tricks like this.
But every time Zhang Chu wanted to fall out, Liu Dehua would intervene.
For the sake of King Liu Tian, Zhang Chu has been putting up with this guy for a long time.
I just returned to the set today, and Du Wenze is acting weird again...
"Achu!"
When Liu Weiqiang saw Zhang Chu getting up, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed him.
"He... just has a bad mouth, so ignore him."
In fact, Liu Weiqiang had discovered the problem a long time ago. If it had been anyone else, he would have replaced the actor long ago.
But Du Wenze has many friends in the circle, especially he has a very good relationship with Zeng Zhiwei, and he plays a small role. There is no need for Liu Weiqiang to offend Zeng Zhiwei because of such a trivial matter.
Normally anyone who is smarter should shut up at this time.
But Du Wenze seemed to be doing it on purpose, and his mouth was still spitting shit.
"Dean, have you ever been to the mainland? Let me tell you, the girls there may look conservative, but in fact they are all very slutty. As long as you say you are from Xiangjiang, most of them will be willing to crawl into your bed. Could it be that our big star looks like this...it can't be? It can't be?"
As he spoke, he let out a strange laugh, as if he had discovered some great news.
Damn it!
Zhang Chu shook off Liu Weiqiang's hand.
He had long been unhappy with this misfortune. He was just trying to give Liu Dehua face and was too lazy to pay attention to him. Now he actually got worse and started throwing dirty water on Zhang Chu.
Moreover, Du Wenze's words about girls from the mainland were very insulting, which angered Zhang Chu even more.
"Achu!"
It was too late for Liu Weiqiang to stop him.
Although Zhang Chu was in a bad state, he was so angry that he couldn't care about anything else. Before Du Wenze could react, he was already there.
He grabbed Du Wenze's neck and lifted him directly from the chair.
The strong feeling of suffocation made Du Wenze scared. He looked at Zhang Chu with fear on his face. His brain began to lack oxygen, his eyes rolled up, and he was about to faint.
"Achu, let go, let go quickly! If you kill him, is it worth it?"
Lin Dian wanted to hold Zhang Chu's hand, but Zhang Chu's strength was beyond his comparison.
But Lin Di'an was right about something.
It's really not worth killing Du Wenze and having to deal with it himself.
Snapped!
He threw it out casually, like throwing away something dirty.
unlucky.
At this moment, everyone on the set also discovered the conflict here. Seeing Zhang Chu actually throwing a large living person out with one hand, everyone was stunned.
Everyone knows that Zhang Chu can fight, one against ten, one against seven, such crazy things have been done before.
But now that I have seen it with my own eyes, it feels completely different.
"Stop pretending to be a dog. Repeat what you just said to me. I didn't bother to pay attention to you before, but you are such a bitch that you actually push your limits. Get up."
Du Wenze also remembered, but at this moment he couldn't exert any strength in his body, he just lay on the ground coughing uncontrollably.
He was scared, really scared.
If it hadn't been for Lin Di'an just now, Zhang Chu might have strangled him to death.
But apart from fear, he also felt strong anger.
No matter how you say it, he is number one in the entertainment industry.
Now he was embarrassed in front of so many people and lost such a big face. How could he still hang out in the circle in the future?
"You... Mr. Mainland, kill me if you are brave enough."
hehe!
Zhang Chu sneered when he heard this.
Kind of.
"Achu, ignore him, he's not clear-headed. Du Wenze, shut up now. Someone come and take him away."
Liu Weiqiang was going crazy. If he had known that Du Wenze was a psychopath and that he didn't care about Zeng Zhiwei's face, he should have replaced him long ago.
Now he can only hope that Zhang Chu can be a little more restrained.
Mudd!
Why haven’t the people sent here called Hua Zai over yet?
Liu Weiqiang knew that in the entire crew, Zhang Chu only gave Liu Dehua face, and even he, the director, had to step aside.
Snapped!
Well?
Liu Weiqiang was startled, and then he saw Du Wenze being kicked out by Zhang Chu. The windlass went more than ten meters before stopping. His mouth and nose were covered with blood, and he lay motionless on the ground.
It's over.
Upon seeing this, Liu Weiqiang slumped down on the ground, looking at Du Wenze like a dead dog with blank eyes.
You were such a mean-mouthed person, but now you're fine, I've been implicated as well.
A life was lost on the crew, and regardless of whether the film could continue to be filmed, his directing career might be brought to an end.
"What's wrong? What happened, he..."
Liu Dehua hurried over. He had just accepted an exclusive interview with the media and learned that something had happened to the crew, so he trotted back all the way.
As a result, Du Wen was seen lying on the ground.
Couldn't he be dead?
