Hong Kong Stubborn - Chapter 43
Luo Junyan made up his mind to work quietly and behave in a low-key manner, but his strength did not allow it.
For the role in “Three Chapters of a Floating Life”, ATV agreed with Luo Junyan to cross-play the maid, thinking it was a good gimmick. It’s a pity that Luo Junyan was brushed off after the makeup audition. He was even more charming and dazzling than the heroine.
His complexion has long since regained his fairness, and his figure has been retrained from the state of weight gain. He dressed up as a woman and then simply applied some powder. According to the director, his skin is like fat and his face is like peach blossoms. How to shoot?
For the role in “Swear Not to Bow Your Head”, Luo Junyan agreed to play the villain Du Shijie, but unfortunately there was a problem in choosing the protagonist. Luo Junyan auditioned for an opponent scene with He Jiajin. It was such a simple one-off cut, but anyone who watched it felt that Luo Junyan had a deep, restrained but heroic and heroic manner than the protagonist’s popular candidate, He Jiajin.
The director of this play had to turn down Luo Junyan’s appointment because the audience is likely to prefer Luo Junyan, the villain. Then how should he deal with the ending?
Luo Junyan was depressed, so he took Bian Sicong and asked Wang Jing to have a supper together.
Bian Sicong and Wang Jing are alumni. After introducing them to each other, the pair of little fat guys are very polite.
Luo Junyan ordered the dishes, and said, “Brother Xiang, why did you arrange the role of Sister Shi for me in “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”? It is said that Uncle Tianlin’s vision is absolutely sophisticated. Look at Zhige’s sharp eyes. You don’t need to put on makeup to know that Qiu Chuji is the best candidate. Look at Changge’s shrewd and sinister look. I suspect that Ouyang Ke wrote it after him.”
Wang Xiaopang glanced at Luo Junyan contemptuously and said, “A Jun, are you exaggerating? And my dad is just the director of TVB, not the boss of TVB. If I am the prince of TVB, you just want to Let A Zhi play Yang Kang and A Chang play Guo Jing, I will definitely help you.”
Luo Junyan sighed and said, “In the entertainment industry, I only have your true friends who have been with you for the longest time. I just want to help but I can’t do it. Xiang Brother, you are better, at least you are a screenwriter. It’s a director again, and the income should be good. Like Zhige, they have been playing supporting roles in TV dramas, and the pay is too low.”
Wang Xiaopang said: “Big brother, is it reasonable to be reasonable? You know, I just paid for the property last year. Now I have finished paying the loan, and the house price is getting lower every day. If it falls for another six months, I don’t know. Selling the house is not worth the loan owed to the bank.”
Luo Junyan raised his glasses, the three of them touched, and Wang Xiaopang said again: “Forget it, let’s not talk about these unhappy things. Ajun, I heard that Leslie Cheung will leave ATV after his contract expires. This time yours The opportunity is here.”
Luo Junyan said: “I asked Rong brother to go to the bar two days ago and he mentioned it to me. But what chance do I have? Brother Xiang, you don’t know. My biggest problem at the moment is not that someone is pressing me on it. But ATV didn’t dare to let me play freely.”
Wang Xiaopang said: “This time ATV has taken a stand that is sought after by young audiences. Will it allow itself to be beaten on the ground by wireless in terms of fashion dramas? Most of your movie fans and fans are young men and women, and ATV will definitely show you chance.”
Luo Junyan thought: It makes sense to say that, because the cost of costume films is high, it is impossible for ATV to make costume films. Do you want to find Qiu Degen to have a relationship with you everywhere?
While he was thinking, Bian Sicong approached Wang Xiaopang to toast a glass of wine and asked, “Brother Xiang, I heard that you are preparing a new movie? What kind of movie is it?”
Wang Xiaopang smiled and said, “Shaw asked me to be the director again. I just obeyed the company’s arrangement. The name of the movie is “Savage Girl” is exciting, and now everyone is following the low-cost romantic comedy. Why, Cong, want to help Ajun in a role? It’s not that I don’t help. I really can’t afford his supporting role.”
Bian Sicong poured wine for Wang Xiaopang, and said: “Brother Xiang, a cameo role is also possible. A Jun’s romance will definitely boost his popularity, so you might as well consider it again.”
Wang Xiaopang rolled his eyes and asked, “How much do you charge for a guest role?”
Bian Sicong looked at Luo Junyan, saw that he had no objection, and said, “Brother Xiang, it depends on the number of scenes. Simple guest appearances, 20,000 yuan.”
Wang Xiaopang felt that there was still a bargain to take advantage of, and asked: “Plus let Ajun write and sing the theme song, how much does it cost?”
Bian Sicong said: “Brother Xiang, you have a vision, and there is nothing wrong with the theme song written by A Jun. However, adding this will cost 80,000 yuan.”
Wang Xiaopang slanted his eyes and said, “40,000.”
Bian Sicong continued: “60,000.”
Wang Xiaopang said directly: “50,000 yuan. A Cong, I only dare to invite A Jun as a friend.”
Bian Sicong saw that Luo Junyan was still sitting steadily, the price should be acceptable, and said, “Thank you, Brother Xiang, for your care.”
Wang Xiaopang said, “It’s easy to say. If A Jun’s schedule is okay, I’ll be fine here. A Jun came to a rich family’s dog-legs to help out, and the rich family is played by Alat, Chen Baixiang.”
Bian Sicong was very excited and said, “The schedule is absolutely fine, thank you Brother Xiang.”
Wang Xiaopang’s plan was to make a gimmick when promoting the film and save the cost of the theme song. Bian Sicong just wanted to make a little achievement as soon as possible, and Luo Junyan’s mind was not on the wine table at all.
The result is such an unreliable contract between four and six, making all the bigwigs in the circle have to re-examine Luo Junyan’s market value.
Just as Luo Junyan was racking his brains to please Qiu Degen, a piece of news appeared in the newspaper. At the end of last year, the man who drank dish soap with the intention of committing suicide was confirmed to be the popular male artist Zhou Yunfa.
After seeing the report, Luo Junyan was shocked.
Since the end of last year, he has been on the cusp of the storm, so he has basically never contacted Fa Ge and the others, but he did not expect Fa Ge to do such a big thing.
Luo Junyan ran directly to see Fa Ge and found that he was still quite calm. So the two went out to drink at night and drank happily, and neither of them mentioned the sad and upsetting things.
When he was leaving, Fa Ge said with emotion: “A Jun, you are right. Love is a hard work. If you can avoid it, don’t take the initiative to lean on it.”
Luo Junyan looked at Fa Ge’s back, and thought to himself: “How can you know if it is love if you don’t rely on it?”
After another two days, Luo Junyan finally waited until Cheng Cheng returned to Xiangjiang from Taiwan, and he made a special trip to greet Master for the first time.
Sitting on the boss chair in the office, Brother Cheng inspected the surroundings and said, “Hey, this place is a bit dilapidated, but the mountain is not high and there is a dragon. Once I leave, I hope it won’t cause too much damage to this building. Influence.”
Luo Junyan said: “Master, don’t worry, that can’t. You haven’t left Xiangjiang, you are all within your influence.”
Brother Cheng smiled and said: “I know it in my heart. After all, we are a master-disciple relationship, so we still have to avoid suspicion as much as possible. Ajun, the Taiwan side has handled it properly. The host has completely adapted to the rhythm of the talk show this time. , Stars go to the platform not just to sing and sing so perfunctory. The audience in Taiwan likes this kind of gag and privacy variety show. Yang Dengkui is very particular, and all the last money of the Snowman era is over, and parting Sealed me a 100,000 yuan red envelope.”
Luo Junyan said: “Yang Dengkui is not the same as those underworld bosses, he is a hero.”
Brother Cheng said: “I’m also telling the truth. He also knows the situation in Xiangjiang that the Snowman era has to open up the mainland market. Once our business develops to the mainland, if we continue to cooperate, it will hurt him, so we should stop it. Right. Of course, we will introduce the stars of Xiangjiang in the future, and Zhao Yazhi and Zheng Shaoqiu’s effect is quite good.”
Brother Cheng took a mouthful of cigarettes and continued: “A Jun, doesn’t Teresa Teng still owe you a favor? You give her a try, can you invite her to the Sapphire Cabaret to participate in a show. The current Sapphire can It’s not the position it used to be, and it won’t damage her identity.”
Luo Junyan hesitated and said, “I haven’t contacted Sister Lijun for a long time, and it was just a phone call with my aunt during the Chinese New Year.”
Brother Cheng said: “A Jun, Yang Dengkui’s favor is very valuable. Who can guarantee that you will not be involved in Taiwan’s entertainment market at all in the future?”
Luo Junyan reluctantly dialed the phone, and it happened that Teresa Teng answered the phone.
Both of them were polite greetings, as if they were both deliberately pulling apart. After listening to Luo Junyan’s request, Teresa Teng was silent for a while before saying: “A Jun, I will contact Boss Yang, and I will return all the favors I owe to you.”
Luo Junyan felt a little sad suddenly, it was always like a deal to borrow and repay. But he still said, “Thank you, Sister Lijun. Say hello to my aunt for me, and I will call her again later.”
Teresa Teng said: “Okay. Jun, if it’s okay, then I’ll hang up first.”
Luo Junyan said: “Sister Lijun, I wish you happiness and goodbye.”
After listening, Teresa Teng didn’t immediately hang up. He held the microphone and was silent for a while before saying, “Goodbye.”
Luo Junyan put down the microphone and said, “Oh, another good friend in the circle is missing. Master, write me a song.”
Brother Cheng had just taken a cigarette, choked and coughed, and said: “A Jun, where is there no grass in the end of the world? Besides, I don’t see you have any unspeakable thoughts about Teresa Teng?”
Luo Junyan took the opportunity to talk about the theme song of “Hua Xin Da Young”, meaning that I wasted a favor, so you have to make up for it.
Brother Cheng racked his brains and thought for a while, and said, “You have to change your agent. Good guy, you only receive 50,000 yuan for the three jobs, and the company and him have to make commissions. This will sell you cheaper than pork. . Alright, I will hum a song “The Flower Protector” for you, and I will charge you 30,000 yuan and leave you 1,000 yuan.”
Luo Junyan was anxious and said, “Master, doesn’t this mean that I did a job for Wang Xiaopang for nothing?”
Brother Cheng used to work in the service industry of auctions, and the most tormenting thing is that you have to know everything.
When he was going to learn Latin dance, he learned this Cantonese song with accompaniment. Of course, I didn’t understand Latin dance, so I had to go online to learn the street dance of the Internet celebrities. As a result, the street dance couldn’t keep up with the rhythm, but at least he could speak well in the steps.
Brother Cheng added, and said, “A Jun, this is your chance to come back. I don’t take advantage of you. I will not only write songs for you, but also teach you two dance steps that match the songs, an elegant Latin dance step, one It’s a popular dance step, which is stronger than that of Disgao. I only collected 30,000 yuan in total, so that’s you.”
Luo Junyan asked curiously: “Master, can you still dance?”
Brother Cheng said: “I don’t have the energy to dance now, and I’m past the age of playing things. I don’t have time to take you. If you want to dance well, just ask two professional teachers to give you guidance. Jun, how about it? You write a check and I will teach on the spot.”
Luo Junyan immediately took out the check. Although he cared about money, he also knew the reason that Yiduo didn’t press his body.
Within a few days, Yang Dengkui called Luo Junyan himself and expressed his sincere thanks to him.
Until mid-April, except for the occasional guest appearance as the host of the ATV talk show, Luo Junyan was practicing dancing frantically. Don’t break out in silence, just die in silence.
Sister Army and Luo Meizi also returned to Hong Kong from mainland China at this time, and the Snowman era officially began the work of relocation. Luo Junyan didn’t come to help this time.
As soon as “Hua Xin Da Young” was officially launched, he had to go to the crew every day to blend in with interpersonal relationships.
Secondly, after Luo Meiwei had an accident, Luo Junyan began to take the initiative to avoid sister army. Bad luck, he really doesn’t want to involve anyone who was unwilling to him.
