Chapter 147
"Anzi, I've heard of you for a long time. I've watched your movie and I think you're very talented in comedy!"
"Are you interested in playing a cameo role in my movie?"
"Don't worry, I'll help promote your movie when the time comes."
Chu Yian was a little surprised that Stephen Chow suddenly contacted him.
After all, this big guy was the source of his childhood joy.
Many people grew up watching his movies, and so many classic characters and lines came from Stephen Chow's movies.
And now he finally had the opportunity to work with his idol, and Chu Yian was naturally very happy.
After all, this was also a tribute to his idol.
At this time, Stephen Chow was in his prime, and he was ambitious to shoot this "Shaolin Soccer", wanting to release it in Hong Kong and the mainland at the same time, and impact the 2001 summer season.
And now it's only 2000, and Stephen Chow has already started preparing for filming, because this time he is co-investing with two mainland companies, and there are still various procedures to go through later.
But Chu Yian clearly remembered that, for various reasons, "Shaolin Soccer" was not released in the mainland.
Even so, the box office of "Shaolin Soccer" in Hong Kong, China and Xiao Ri Zi has reached 42.77 million US dollars, which is equivalent to 350 million RMB at that time.
To be honest, if Chu Yian had not activated the current box office market, the box office market would really be sluggish at this time.
It must be said that the appearance of Chu Yian, the reborn, gave Oriental Film a big sigh of relief.
This also made Stephen Chow see the potential of the mainland box office.
Therefore, he wanted to promote this matter more vigorously, and even wanted Chu Yian to play a cameo role in "Shaolin Soccer".
Now that he heard Chu Yian agreed, Stephen Chow was naturally very happy.
And Chu Yian also said that he would set up a team in Hong Kong and prepare to shoot a new movie next year.
I hope Stephen Chow can also make a cameo in his movie at that time.
However, Chu Yian knew Stephen Chow's character very well.
In his previous life, Xiao Gangpao played a gangster boss in Stephen Chow's Kung Fu and contributed famous lines and scenes:
"Who else!"
It also played a very good role at the time, with a full comedy effect.
However, when Xiao Gangpao wanted Stephen Chow to come for a cameo in the filming of his movie, Stephen Chow ignored him.
This incident made Xiao Gangpao swear for many years.
Because Stephen Chow had previously played a cameo in Big Brother Cheng's "Glass Bottle", and Big Brother Cheng had played a cameo in Stephen Chow's "King of Comedy".
This has also become a good story in the Hong Kong film industry.
Xiao Gangpao also wanted to follow suit, but was stood up by Stephen Chow. How could he not jump up and down?
However, Chu Yian felt that there was nothing wrong with Stephen Chow's behavior. Xiao Gangpao's character was very bad, and it was unknown what the consequences would be after his cameo.
What's more, Stephen Chow was already successful and famous at that time. Although Xiao Gangpao was famous in the mainland, he was still many levels behind Stephen Chow.
This is not equal at all!
So, this time Chu Yian invited Stephen Chow, even if Stephen Chow agreed, he didn't really take it to heart.
The main reason was that Stephen Chow also made a cameo appearance in another movie "King of Gamblers 2000" this year. It was originally said that he was a cameo appearance, but he ended up starring in a cameo appearance.
This made Stephen Chow sick.
Only Lao Wang, who is known as the king of bad movies in Hong Kong, could do it. Lao Wang does have the physique of Lao Liu, and he really does everything for the box office.
However, he is also a real villain, much more insidious and cunning than Xiao Gangpao.
After agreeing to make a cameo appearance in the filming of Stephen Chow, Chu Yian went without saying a word.
Anyway, he went there to shoot during the break of the roadshow, and the roadshow here is almost over.
When he arrived at the Shaolin Soccer crew, he immediately attracted a crowd of people, and Stephen Chow personally came to greet him:
"Anzi, you are finally here! I really like your movies!"
"Thank you so much for coming to guest star in my movie."
"There are two roles this time, you can choose one. I hope you can be one of the two big bosses in our final battle. One is a striker and the other is a goalkeeper. Here is the script, you can take a look before deciding which one to choose."
Hearing this, Chu Yian's eyes lit up.
The last battle in Shaolin Soccer, their Shaolin team fought against the genetically enhanced team, which was really exciting to watch. Many years later, that classic duel still left a very deep impression in the hearts of movie fans.
ChuYian thought about it and finally chose the role of the goalkeeper of the Devil Team.
"Master Xing, I choose the goalkeeper."
"I think I can play this role well. Moreover, I am quite confident in my figure."
"If you don't believe me, take a look."
Chu Yian said as he lifted up a little of his clothes, revealing his solid muscles.
Wolverine's physique makes it easier for him to shape his body when exercising.
Therefore, his physique is more domineering than Wolverine, and it is really difficult for ordinary people to train to this state.
Not far away, the two goddesses who also came to guest star suddenly brightened up.
That's right, there are also Cecilia Cheung and Mo Wenhui, and they are guest-starring the Jade-faced Little Flying Dragon combination.
However, these two people have had a close relationship with Master Xing. Just this guest star made them feel like they were fighting openly and secretly.
Maybe seeing that both of them were not in good condition, Master Xing asked them to take a rest first.
After seeing Chu Yian coming, Stephen Chow naturally came to receive him first.
Although it was a guest appearance, if it was a guest appearance in one of the two villains of the Devil Team, Stephen Chow still had to design it carefully. Moreover, this role has a lot of scenes.
Stephen Chow just wanted to see Chu Yian's opinion first, and he didn't start filming today.
He also asked Chu Yian about his schedule. When he heard Chu Yian say that he could fully cooperate, Stephen Chow really wanted to maximize the potential of this actor. Even if it was a guest appearance, he would not relax his requirements.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yian's performance was much more exaggerated than he imagined.
A group of male actors were all gold medal supporting actors. When they saw Chu Yian's muscles, they couldn't help but come over and touch them:
"My goodness, your muscles are even more exaggerated than mine. How did you train them?"
One of the gold supporting actors was the sixth junior brother who imitated Bruce Lee, named Chen Guokun. Later, he also played the role of the leader of the Axe Gang in Stephen Chow's movie "Kung Fu".
At this time, he had trained his muscles to imitate Bruce Lee, and he really looked like a Kung Fu master.
But even so, he couldn't compare to Chu Yian's domineering Wolverine physique.
While a group of male compatriots were praising Chu Yian's figure, the two goddesses outside the field were also paying close attention to the situation on their side.
"Are you still eyeing his little brother? But he already has a girlfriend, and for someone like you, how can he look down on you?"
Mo Wenhui looked at Zhang Baizhi, whose eyes were shining, with disdain. She knew this woman too well.
She must have some ideas when she saw a handsome guy, and she played quite a lot.
Zhang Baizhi sneered and said:
"Anyway, he will definitely look down on you, but he may not look down on me. Besides, I'm not going to be his girlfriend. I'm just going out to have fun. What's the matter?"
