Xu Zheng has said that no matter how high the box office of Wang Baoqiang's participation is, he will not look for him to cooperate again.
Did Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang really break up? Why did the once-recognized golden partner break up so long later?
Although Xu Zheng immediately explained, if Wang Baoqiang was allowed to come, who would pay attention to me and Huang Bo?
But this statement is also too reluctant. So, what really happened between them?
What is the secret behind the two parting ways? It all has to start all over again.
In 2010, the small-budget filmmaker directed by Ye Weimin earned 37 million yuan at the box office with a 7 million investment in 囧途, which was also the first cooperation between Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang.
Xu Zheng, who has business acumen, saw that this kind of comedy film is so marketable, and he has his own plan to become a director.
In order to ensure the box office, Xu Zheng, in addition to finding his old partner Wang Baoqiang, also pulled his good friend Huang Bo, and there was a little episode in the middle.
At first, Huang Bo did not plan to star at all, but in order to let Huang Bo star in the movie, Xu Zheng was kind to him, all kinds of flattery, and finally impressed Xu Zheng with sincerity, and the film remuneration for Wang Baoqiang was 2 million, and the salary for Huang Bo was 3 million.
Compared with the film remuneration, the value of the two is too small, so Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo are considered to be friendly actors, but they did not expect that the film shooting was only completed 2/3, but found that the funds were not enough.
At this time, Xu Zheng was also very courageous, and he invested his own film remuneration and director fees into this movie, but found that it was still not enough.
When he was worried, Huang Bo sent charcoal in the snow, because through this period of time together, he felt that this movie was likely to be popular.
So Huang Bo said to Xu Zheng, I don't want the film remuneration, I invest in this movie, and after the box office is a big hit, write me a dividend on the line, if I lose, I will help you.
Unexpectedly, at that time, only 30 million yuan was invested, and After the release of Tai Lu, it earned 1.26 billion yuan at the box office, which also made Xu Zheng, a new director, famous in one fell swoop.
Xu Zheng also fulfilled his promise, giving Huang Bo a dividend of 50 million, but Wang Baoqiang only received 2 million from beginning to end, and there was no harm without comparison.
However, through this incident, Wang Baoqiang learned a lot of things, and when Xu Zheng asked him to shoot Hong Kong, he proposed an invitation, but he was unexpectedly rejected by Xu Zheng and his wife.
So wait until 2015 Xu Zheng prepared to shoot Hong Kong, and invited Wang Baoqiang to star for 5 million yuan.
After the last lesson, Wang Baoqiang also said that I don't want to pay the film, and then take out ten million to invest in this movie, but there is a requirement, share my 10% box office dividend.
But I didn't expect this request to be rejected by Xu Zheng. Today is different from the past, there is no shortage of investors in Hong Kong at this time, and if Wang Baoqiang is involved, the interests of other investors will be reduced.
Originally, Wang Baoqiang thought that with his relationship with Xu Zheng, this was ten to nine stable, and his request was still reasonable, after all, he was the core figure of the 囧 series.
Participating in film investment is a very normal thing, after all, there are many people who go to see this movie for Wang Baoqiang, and it can even be said that Tai Lu can achieve such a high box office, Wang Baoqiang is indispensable.
At the same time, Chen Sicheng also found Wang Baoqiang and invited him to play Tang Tanyu in the form of film remuneration and dividends, which formed a sharp contrast between Xu Zheng and Xu Zheng.
After much deliberation, Wang Baoqiang resolutely refused Xu Zheng's invitation.
It turned out that he had made the right choice this time. After the release of the Chinatown detective, the box office earned 821 million, and Chen Sicheng said that he had a letter to give Wang Baoqiang a dividend of 30 million.
Wang Baoqiang was also allowed to participate in the investment of the sequel, which made Wang Baoqiang quite moved.
And there is another important reason that really made Wang Baoqiang break with Xu Zheng, when the Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong incidents were boiling over, his property was secretly transferred by Ma Rong, and for a time the family was surrounded by disciples, and even the money for the lawsuit could not be taken out.
Cornered, Wang Baoqiang first thought of Xu Zheng's help, but he did not expect to be rejected.
I think when Xu Zheng first looked for him to shoot a scene, he didn't say anything to help his brothers, but this time he was reluctant to help, and finally Chen Sicheng took the initiative to stand up for Wang Baoqiang and directly transferred 3 million to Wang Baoqiang.
Therefore, The pattern of Chen Sicheng is still larger, the two are also strong and powerful later, Tang Detective Universe also replaced the 囧 series to become the biggest winner of the Spring Festival file, and Wang Baoqiang, as the lead actor and investor, also earned a lot of money with this series.
