Both of them were swift and decisive. After the discussion, they called Su Hong and Jun Watanabe respectively.
Su Hong had just finished filming a movie a few days ago and had nothing to do. But when he heard Xiao Yunhai's call, he agreed without hesitation.
However, there was a problem with Jun Watanabe, who Luo Tianxiong was in charge of contacting.
Jun Watanabe wasn't in Japan, but in Beijing's Karate Dojo. Jun Watanabe wasn't interested in Luo Tianxiong's invitation.
Even when he heard that the director was Xiao Yunhai, he declined and said that he wouldn't film anymore.
Luo Tianxiong tried to persuade him, but Jun Watanabe refused.
Left with no choice, Luo Tianxiong could only hang up the phone.
"Senior Brother, what movies did Jun Watanabe act in?" Xiao Yunhai asked. "I want to take a look. If it's suitable, I can personally invite him to Beijing's Karate Dojo. "
After a brief pondering, Luo Tianxiong replied, "He's basically in supporting roles, and he's not famous. If I didn't meet him on a set, I wouldn't have known that there's such an amazing person in the Japanese entertainment industry. "
Luo Tianxiong said as he searched for Jun Watanabe's movies.
Soon, Luo Tianxiong found it.
Xiao Yunhai watched them one by one and was impressed by Jun Watanabe's skills in the movies.
Especially in a Japanese Kungfu film called Hero, where the antagonist played by Jun Watanabe had a shocking confrontation with the protagonist at the last moment.
In just five minutes of filming, he displayed Muay Thai, Karate, Boxing, Jiu Jitsu, Chop, and other martial arts moves. Even though it was just a glimpse, but with Xiao Yunhai's eyesight, he naturally saw it all clearly.
After watching it, Xiao Yunhai's eyes lit up and he stood up. "I'll go to Beijing to invite him in a few days. Senior Brother, where's that brother of yours? Let's go and meet him together. "
"He's downstairs in the hospital." Luo Tianxiong replied.
When Xiao Yunhai heard that, he turned to Zhao Wanqing. "Wan Qing, I'll be back in a while."
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "Just do what you need to do. This afternoon, I will get Sister Mo to accompany me. The senior and junior brothers of the Luo Family Troupe came all the way here to help you film. You should treat everyone to a good meal and arrange a hotel for them. Don't worry, I'm fine here. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Alright, call me if there's anything."
After the two walked out of the ward, Luo Tianxiong sighed, "Wan Qing is really a good girl. You have to treat her well in the future."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "We've already decided to hold the wedding in the second half of the year. Senior Brother, when the time comes, you have to prepare a big red envelope for us. "
Luo Tianxiong laughed and said, "You're already a billionaire, yet you're still thinking about the money of poor people like us. You're really heartless."
The two of them chatted and laughed as they went downstairs.
When the six to seven brothers of the Luo Family Troupe saw Luo Tianxiong and Xiao Yunhai coming out, they quickly went up to greet them.
Xiao Yunhai looked around from afar and immediately noticed a tall and sturdy man with dark skin. He was about thirty years old, had sharp eyes, and the lines of his face were very rigid. Even when he smiled, it gave people a feeling of malevolence.
Xiao Yunhai felt that this person should be the member of the Luo Family Troupe that his senior brother recommended to him.
Sure enough, after Xiao Yunhai exchanged a few polite words with everyone, Luo Tianxiong pointed at the other party and said, "Yunhai, this is Zhou Lihu, nicknamed Huzi. He joined our Luo Family Troupe three years ago. Do you think he's suitable to play the role of Fujita Tsuyoshi? "
Hearing Luo Tianxiong's words, Zhou Lihu's heart was shaken. He looked a little excited and thought, Could it be that Yun Huang wants to invite me to film? If that's the case, then that's great!
For Xiao Yunhai, the famous Yun Huang, Zhou Lihu could be said to have heard a lot about him.
Relying on his own talent, the other party quickly grew from an ordinary student to a heavenly king artist in just two years. He had more than 100 million fans, which made him admire him very much.
He was also a hardcore fan of Xiao Yunhai. Whether it was Xiao Yunhai's martial arts novels or music movies, Zhou Lihu liked them very much.
Every night before going to bed, he would read novels and listen to music for a while before falling asleep.
Therefore, when he heard that he might be able to act with Xiao Yunhai again, one could imagine the excitement in his heart.
Xiao Yunhai carefully sized him up from head to toe, and said: "Big Brother Zhou, show me a sinister expression, let me see."
Zhou Lihu nodded. He knew that Yun Huang was testing him. If he passed, it was very likely that he would be cast in his new movie.
Therefore, he had to do his best to show his acting skills and abilities. Otherwise, if he lost this opportunity, he might regret it for the rest of his life.
Thinking of this, Zhou Lihu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and slowly calmed himself down.
When he felt that it was about time, Zhou Lihu suddenly opened his eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a cold smile appeared on his slightly sinister face. His eyes were cold, and his gaze was like a knife as he coldly looked at Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Big Brother Zhou, your acting is too exaggerated. It's a little superficial, and it doesn't give people the feeling that you're sinister to the bone. If you want this role, it's best that you find an acting teacher to specially train you. Five days later, I'll give you another chance to audition. If you can satisfy me by then, then this movie will be yours. Otherwise, I'm sorry, I'll have to choose someone else. Do you understand? "
Luo Tianxiong said, "Yunhai, are you saying that Huzi's acting needs to be strengthened?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's right. Big Brother Zhou's appearance is very suitable for the role, and there shouldn't be a problem with his martial arts. The only thing lacking is his acting skills. He can't show Fujita Takeshi's high and mighty aura that despises everything. "
Luo Tianxiong said, "I understand. There are many acting teachers in Hengdian. I'll hire the best one to teach him. Five days later, if he's still not suitable, we'll choose someone else. Huzi, this is a great opportunity for you. It might be a turning point in your life. Whether you become a dragon or a worm depends on the results of these days' training. "
Zhou Lihu nodded and said, "Big Brother Luo, thank you for recommending me to Director Xiao. Director Xiao, thank you for giving me a second chance to audition. In these few days, I'll work hard to learn. If I still can't do it by then, I can only accept my fate. "
Luo Tianxiong patted his shoulder and said, "Don't say such discouraging words. You'll definitely be fine."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Big Brother Zhou, don't give yourself too much pressure. When it comes to acting, you can't be too deliberate. Otherwise, it will only backfire. Seniors, I'll treat everyone to lunch today. Let's discuss this movie at the dining table. "
Everyone nodded and followed Xiao Yunhai to a big hotel near the hospital.
Everyone was a martial artist. When they drank, they didn't hesitate at all. The atmosphere was very lively.
Seeing that it was about time, Xiao Yunhai said to Luo Tianxiong, "Senior, I'd like to invite you to be my assistant director and action coach. What do you think?"
As Zhao Zhen and Wang Wei were filming, Xiao Yunhai didn't have anyone available. Hence, he turned his attention to Luo Tianxiong.
Luo Tianxiong pointed at Xiao Yunhai and laughed, saying, "You're asking me to be your strong man, aren't you? Haha, I've been filming for so many years, but I've never been an assistant director. Alright.
Since there aren't many scenes in this movie, it's relatively easy. Assistant director it is. I agree. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's great. Senior, you've already read the script. Go and find a suitable set tomorrow. If you don't have one, we'll build one ourselves. Money isn't a problem. Also, the movie needs dozens of martial artists. I'm afraid we don't have enough manpower right now. "
Luo Tianxiong said, "Don't worry about that. The Luo Family Troupe will be here in two days. However, you need to build the team as soon as possible. After all, there are specializations in the industry. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I'm asking my father-in-law to find people for photography, art, stage management, and production. There should be news in two days."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yunhai was very depressed.
The team that worked with him for Langya Board and If You Are the One, except for the stage management, the others were all busy with other movies. None of them had any free time.
Because of this, he was severely scolded by Zhou Yun. She said that other directors would give them at least a month or two in advance for their movies, but Xiao Yunhai only gave them a few days in advance.
It was already lucky for Langya Board and If You Are the One to have free time. This time, no matter what, they couldn't find the time.
Xiao Yunhai had no choice but to ask Hanhai Entertainment to help him recruit some experienced staff in the industry.
However, what Xiao Yunhai didn't expect was that once his Valiant Heroes was announced, it quickly caused a strong shock in the film and television industry.
Xiao Yunhai usually liked to use old people for his movies. This time, he could find people from the outside. It was definitely a very good opportunity for everyone.
Among them, the position that made people jealous the most was the assistant director. Although Xiao Yunhai invited Luo Tianxiong to be the assistant director, he had a lot of work to do and couldn't take care of all aspects. Therefore, it was undoubtedly a good choice to have an assistant director.
When the news of Xiao Yunhai hiring an assistant director spread, Hanhai Entertainment Investment Company received more than 30 applications in just one afternoon.
It couldn't be helped. Being the assistant director of Xiao Yunhai's crew was too popular.
First of all, Xiao Yunhai was famous for being a hands-off boss. Apart from filming, he basically didn't care about the matters of the crew and let the assistant director take care of everything. Therefore, the assistant director had a lot of power.
Secondly, anyone who had been Xiao Yunhai's assistant director quickly became an official director and started filming movies and TV series. For example, the assistant director of Empresses in the Palace, Lv Pengfei, was originally just an advertising director. After Empresses in the Palace became popular on Hua Xia, he directed a TV series that had very good ratings. There were also Wang Wei and Zhao Zhen of iPartment and Langya Board. One of them wrote and directed the TV series, while the other was directly appointed by Xiao Yunhai as the director of iPartment II. It was unknown how many people were jealous of them. They worked hard for most of their lives, but they couldn't be compared to two young men in their twenties. How could they be willing to accept that?
What was the most fundamental reason why they could get to where they were? Wasn't it because they had a good relationship with Xiao Yunhai?
Lv Pengfei had said on more than one interview show that although Xiao Yunhai was young, he was his talent scout and a good friend. Xiao Yunhai's control of the crew was the best he had ever seen. His efficiency in filming was also the highest he had ever seen.
During the filming of Empresses in the Palace, he had learned a lot from him. If there was a chance, he would be willing to be his assistant director.
Of course, that was just Lv Pengfei's humble words, but it also showed that Xiao Yunhai had a great influence on Lv Pengfei.
Those assistant directors who had worked hard in the crew for decades, which one of them didn't want to take the lead and direct their own shows? However, how many of them had such an opportunity?
Now that there was a shortcut like Xiao Yunhai, everyone naturally rushed to it.
