Xiao Yunhai wasn't in a hurry and allowed Chen Jie to find the feeling.

Chen Jie couldn't take it anymore and said, "Director Xiao, I want to stop for a while to find the feeling."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Sure. Brother Chen, you can ask Teacher Huang for advice when it comes to playing bad guys. He's famous for this kind of role. "
Chen Jie's eyes lit up and said, "Teacher Huang, please help me. I'm going crazy. "
Huang Qiusheng pulled him aside and said, "Don't worry, take it slow. That's how acting is. If you want to play a bad guy well, the two most important things are your eyes and temperament. Your performance just now was too soft and there were some problems. "
Half an hour later, under Huang Qiusheng's guidance, Chen Jie finally grasped the character's characteristics and passed the sixth line in one go.
It was already noon and everyone in the crew went to eat.
During the meal, Chen Jie said sincerely, "Director Xiao, teachers, I'm really sorry for the delay this morning."
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "It's okay. It's just filming, it's unavoidable. "
Huang Qiusheng said, "Chen Jie, you're very talented in acting. It's just that your acting career was too narrow and you mostly acted in action movies. I think that's very bad for your future development. You're still young, you should try other kinds of movies. "
Chen Jie nodded and said, "Thank you, Teacher Huang, for your advice. I also feel that there's a problem, so I've been changing my style for the past two years. I've only filmed a few movies in a row, but the box office reviews are very average and I've been criticized quite a lot. Sigh, I don't have any confidence anymore. "
Huang Qiusheng said, "I remember that you didn't graduate from an acting school. Why don't you go to a film school to further your studies? You've been filming for so many years and have a lot of experience. It's time to make a conclusion. It's very necessary to improve your acting skills. "
Chen Jie smiled and said, "Teacher Huang, you're really thinking of the same thing. If Director Xiao didn't ask me to play Ma San, I'd probably be at the Yenching Film Institute now. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then it seems that I've delayed you."
Chen Jie said, "Please don't say that, Director Xiao. You don't know how rare it is for us actors to be able to act in your show. No matter what, I cannot let go of this opportunity. "
Huang Qiusheng asked, "Yunhai, I've read the script of this movie no less than ten times from beginning to end. It can be said that this movie has both artistic and commercial elements. Are you really not going to release it overseas? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Of course not. I just want to see how the movie will turn out after the translation is done. As you know, many of the lines in this movie are proverbs. It's not easy to do. "
Huang Qiusheng nodded and said, "Hiding flowers in the leaves once, treading on snow a few times in my dreams. This kind of language is indeed difficult to translate."
Seeing the disappointment in the actor's eyes, Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Even if it doesn't go to the cinema, I will put it on video websites in various regions of the world. I estimate that it won't be a problem to make a billion dollars. When the time comes, the fans all over the world will still recognize us. Actually, with the development of the film industry to this stage, it's already trending towards globalization. There are plenty of opportunities. "
Deng Yue smiled and said, "That's right. Some time ago, I filmed a Hollywood action blockbuster. I was originally full of confidence, but after watching Yunhai's' 2012 ', I almost fainted. The effects of a 3D movie are too strong. If my movie is released at this juncture, it will definitely be finished. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Movie fans are all looking for novelty. I estimate that no 2D movie can compare to a 3D movie within a year. Even if it's a bad movie, they will probably go to the cinema to watch it. After a year, when the novelty wears off, it'll be hard to say. "
Huang Qiusheng said, "So you filmed four 3D Marvel superhero movies in one go just to take advantage of the time difference and make a lot of money, right?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's right. The box office of '2012' is around 80 USD on average. The next one will be at most 60 USD. The next one will be 50 USD, then 40 USD, then 30 USD. It will drop in sequence until it stabilizes. The earlier a 3D movie is released, the more money it will make. That's for sure. "
Deng Yue sighed and said, "This is a technological advantage. It can be considered another form of monopoly."
After dinner, Xiao Yunhai received a call from Christy.
"Mr. Xiao, I've already arrived at Liaoyang Airport. Can you come and pick us up?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "You should have told me in advance. You guys wait there for a while. I'll get Wan Qing to go over. "
After hanging up, Xiao Yunhai said to Zhao Wanqing, "Honey, you don't have any scenes in the afternoon. Help me pick up Christy from the airport."
Zhao Wanqing said, "No problem. Should I bring her over or go directly to Uncle's place? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Let her come here. I have a lot of things to remind her of. "
Christy was a business elite. Everything was based on money. She advocated using the smallest price to exchange for the biggest profit.
However, this large-scale coal mine was different from ordinary business. This was Xiao Yunhai's uncle, Xiao Shengli, through special means. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was abusing his power for personal gain.
Therefore, Xiao Yunhai had to do it perfectly. He could not leave any evidence to prevent the Xiao family from being implicated in the future.
At four o 'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai had just finished filming two scenes. Zhao Wanqing brought Christy to the set.
Taking advantage of the break, Xiao Yunhai and Christy went to a corner to talk.
"Ms. Christy, the reason why I asked Wan Qing to bring you here is that I have something important to discuss with you."
Christy smiled and said, "Boss, please go ahead."
Xiao Yunhai said, "If, after our exploration, this coal mine is accurate and contains 1.25 billion tons, then when you negotiate with the government, I want you to buy the mining rights at a price that is at least 20% higher than the international price, not a penny less. Do you understand?"
Christy said in surprise, "Mr. Xiao, I don't understand. Why are you doing this? Do you know? If this coal mine is really a high-quality large-scale coal mine, your 20% higher price will reach 10 billion US dollars. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "It doesn't matter even if it's 20 billion. Christy, the situation in Hua Xia is different from that in the United States. Politics comes first and economy comes second. This coal mine was left to me by my uncle in order to arrange for the retired soldiers of their military region. If I use my family's connections to make the government suffer losses, then my uncle and I will have a stain on our records. Once captured by my political opponents, my family will face a disaster. No matter how much money I have, it will be useless. Do you understand? "
Christy nodded and said, "What you mean is that we would rather suffer losses than let your government suffer losses, right?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's right. Buying the mining rights at 120% of the market price will not be a problem no matter where you go, and it won't be a crime of abusing your power for personal gain. "
Christy smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, I'll remember that. Do you have any other orders? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "The establishment of the coal company can wait until it's confirmed. Madam Christy, what are the backgrounds of the experts you found? Can they do it? "
Christy said, "I hired a total of six experts, all of whom are the world's top coal exploration experts. Just the fee for them alone is 30 million US dollars. You can rest assured about their abilities. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Damn, it's only a few days, and the price is so high. Okay, after the exploration is complete, you should quickly contact the government and buy it to avoid any unexpected problems. As for the documents and the like, my uncle will take care of it for us. "
Christy smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Xiao."
After sending Christy off, Xiao Yunhai returned to the set to continue filming. The next few days were very smooth.
What made Xiao Yunhai even happier was that the weather forecast said that there would be heavy snow next week, and it would last for three days. There were many scenes in "Grandmaster" that would be filmed in heavy snow, which was exactly what Xiao Yunhai wanted.
Xiao Yunhai sent people to set up the set quickly, especially the big scene between Zhao Wanqing and Chen Jie on the train platform. It was the most important.
Previously, they had contacted the Liaoyang Railway Bureau and rented an abandoned platform. After spending a lot of money to find a train, they redecorated it and made it look like it was during the Republic of China.
Zhao Wanqing and Chen Jie had been practicing for a long time for this scene. As long as they didn't screw up on the spot, there shouldn't be any problems.
Xiao Yunhai's crew was always the most well-staffed. Even if he went to other places to arrange the set, the other scenes would still be in full swing.
