Chapter 8 A plan about Zhou Runfa

 "Brother Fa, someone is looking for you outside."

Noon.

Clear Water Bay, Shaw Brothers Studios.

Fa Ge is currently on the set of "Blood Money", playing the male protagonist Bullet. The screenwriter of this movie, Zhang Jianting, is a real boss. He just won the Academy Award for Best Screenplay last year, but this does not prevent "Blood Money" from still being a film.

Big bad movie.

"I got it." Zhou Runfa hurriedly finished his lunch box and drank a bottle of mineral water before getting up and heading to the studio gate.

The entrance to the set.

A van that was about to be scrapped was parked across the street with the door open. From across the road, Zhou Runfa saw Li Shize sitting in the carriage, leaning forward and waving to him.

Walk over quickly.

"Get in the car and chat."

As soon as Zhou Runfa got into the car, the door was slammed shut and then started immediately.

"Mr. Li, what are you..."

Zhou Runfa felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere. The driver was wearing sunglasses as if he was afraid of being recognized. Behind Li Shize were two burly men with tattoos on their arms, plus such a broken van that could be seen everywhere...

Kidnapping?

Anyway, the kidnapping plots in movies are basically shot like this.

"Take a look at this first."

Li Shize handed Zhou Runfa a thick stack of gossip magazines, and Zhou Runfa understood immediately.

This is hiding from the paparazzi.

"No eyesight! Looking at Guan Jiahui's marital pregnancy test report, the father's surname is actually Li."

"Are you sure it's a boy? The famous lawyer Jiang XX entered Li's house late at night, and Li Xiaoqin has made a will."

"After nineteen years of hard work in the cold kiln, Mr. L finally became a heartless man!"

"Li Shize: I don't recognize this father"...

"I don't care, but Guan Jiahui is innocent, and I don't want her to be involved in these gossips." Li Shize knows the art of language very well. He said that Guan Jiahui was innocent when she was involved, but did not mention Li Xiaoqin at all. This is actually a disguised form.

The default.

"This is all... a grudge between wealthy families. I'm just an actor. How can I help?" Chow Yun-fat flipped through it from top to bottom.

"I'm sure you can help, I need you to disappear for three days."

"Ah? I have to film in the afternoon. Let alone three days, someone will call the police if I disappear for three hours." Zhou Runfa refused directly.

"Stop."

The driver pulled over.

Li Shize continued: "Brother Fa, I won't force you. You listen to me first. If you are still unwilling to cooperate after I finish speaking, I will immediately turn around the car and take you back. Is that okay?"

"Okay." Zhou Runfa's expression was gloomy.

"First, Guan Jiahui and I are currently on the cusp of the storm. If we want to escape, we must create a new hot spot. You disappeared for three days, the crew called the police, and the world was in chaos. It will definitely divert the attention of those gossip magazines. This is

For my sake, I owe you a favor, and I will definitely pay it back if I have the opportunity in the future."

"Second, you become a hot topic, and new dramas will be released after clarification. We don't have to spend a penny on publicity expenses, and "Prison Storm" can be promoted from the news page to the entertainment edition. This is for the movie, "Prison Storm" has a lot of box office

A little bit is also good for you. It is very likely that this is a new starting point for you to take off the 'box office poison'."

"There is a third and most important thing. Have you ever thought that the reason why your movies failed at the box office is because you are really not good. You are indeed very popular when you are free to watch on TVB, but in the theater, your acting skills are not worth it.

Ticket price is five yuan."

Li Shize looked at Zhou Runfa's expression and found that he was touched. He immediately struck while the iron was hot and continued to persuade...

"TV dramas and movies are two completely different ways of performing."

"The lines in TV series are all spoken by mouth. Those housewives watch the series intermittently while doing housework, and they know what the whole show is about just by listening. In movies, in addition to the superficial lines, there is also an inner drama.

Subtext needs to be interpreted with body movements and facial expressions..."

Zhou Runfa’s acting skills during this period were indeed terrible.

In addition to his own reasons, Shaw Brothers also has to bear a certain responsibility. He arranged too many film appointments for him, and he only met the deadline without pursuing quality. He was just as cheap as the later generations of fresh meat, and he took advantage of the popularity to shoot as many as he could.

The only blame to blame is that Fa Ge is too popular.

Zhou Runfa listened very attentively and did not interrupt. It was not until Li Shize finished all his rhetoric that he smiled bitterly and said: "I understand what you said, and someone has told me about it, but it is not easy to go from knowing to doing it.



TVB is the dominant TV drama company, and Chow Yun-fat has no masterpieces in movies. Shaw Brothers keeps sending film offers, and if he doesn't cooperate, he will be banned.

I will fall out whenever a movie becomes popular!

Without the determination to sink the boat, one bad movie after another will follow, gradually falling into an endless loop.

Li Shize patted his chest and said confidently: "Give me three days and I will let you learn acting."

"Are you kidding me?"

"Looking at your expression now, you don't believe me, but you are very moved. You interpret your inner drama perfectly. It's not that you have no acting talent, you just haven't found a suitable acting method for yourself. I only have three days, so it's not worth the gamble.

?"

Zhou Runfa smiled bitterly and said: "It is indeed worth a gamble. You are... so scary. Every word speaks to my heart. I feel like I have no clothes on in front of you."

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in men, just drive."

As the van restarted, Li Shize secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In his overall plan this time, Zhou Runfa was an indispensable role.

Zhou Runfa is willing to cooperate, which is more than half of the success.

Zhou Runfa couldn't help but ask: "Li Sheng, I'm really curious, how are you going to teach me acting in just three days?"

"Acting cannot be taught. Only you can help you find a suitable performance method. What I can do is create an environment for you."

"It's quite profound."

"Actually, it's very simple. Whether it's expressionistic or experiential acting, it all comes from life. The movie we are going to shoot is called "Prison Storm". How can you play a prisoner well if you have never been in prison."

"Ah!" Zhou Runfa was confused.

The van drove to a remote pier, and the group of people transferred to a pre-prepared speedboat to head to the set in Chek Lap Kok Village instead of taking a ferry.

This is not just to avoid the paparazzi.

After several days of day and night renovations, the warehouse near Chek Lap Kok Village has been completely renovated. It is modeled on the real prison in Stanley, with all decorations and furnishings fully restored to a one-to-one ratio.

Who is so professional?

Li Shize boarded the dock in Jichang, and the most important thing under his command was talents with various criminal backgrounds. Not to mention decoration projects, all extras must have experience in working in a kiln.

These people not only have to contribute their efforts, but also contribute money.

Li Shize told Jichang that he would raise another 500,000 yuan, but in fact, he secretly raised more than 700,000 yuan.

There is a cap of 15P to protect the capital based on the box office, and there is also the same risk agreement as Jichang.

When the film is released, they will have to drag their families to support the box office.

I participated in the show and also participated in the investment, so I support it both emotionally and rationally.

Li Shize has already reduced the account book to the bone.

Come to the set.

First, Zhou Runfa was put into prison uniform, and he was asked to hold a sign and take a prison photo.
