Chapter 111 Troubled Casting

 Chapter 111 Troublesome Casting

Unable to persuade Tang Ze, Wang Changba had nothing else to do, so he left first.

The two kings of Huayi want to help their artists get the role of "Good Will Hunting".

No matter what happens to the next movie, the cost is so low, making money is certain.

It’s just that for Tangze’s current weight, failure to exceed 100 million means failure.

"Li Bingbing, Zhou Xun, Huang Xiaohuan, Deng Chao... I have so many top-notch artists in Huayi. Mr. Tang can just pick any one he likes. All he needs to do is arrange good roles for them."

Tang Ze is indeed a little worried about this.

Since you want to win an award, you can't just pick an actor, the performance must be on point.

The male protagonist Tang Wei decided to do it himself.

The heroine Wang Shi actually prefers vases.

What was promised to Liu Yifei, even if he wanted to win the award, he would not regret it just to be safe.

The worst he can do is be more strict during filming and let the actors accept his training.

That’s the right word.

This time, he will not give other actors room to express themselves.

Among the remaining important characters are the male protagonist’s best friend Link, university mathematics professor Lan Bo and psychiatrist He En.

Fortunately for Link, the most important scene is when he and the male protagonist express their innermost thoughts.

The other parts are logical and the performance is natural enough.

This role was reserved for Zhou Jielun by Tang Ze.

However, Lan Bo and He En appear more frequently, so selection is the top priority. It is best to have good acting skills and be of average age.

As a result, several male artists in Tianze are probably out of business, and their images are a bit immature.

Xu Zheng, who is barely able to act, also has to direct "The Journey" and has no time.

Since there is a shortage of actors, he naturally has to consider people from Huayi.

Huang Xiaohuan has always been on Tang Ze's blacklist, so there is no need to consider it.

Deng Chao is actually 29 years old, not too young, but still too young.

It doesn't make sense for him to play a supporting role with an average role.

After thinking about it all the way, he found that the Huayi artists he had an impression of were all too young and not suitable.

And veteran actors like Ge You, although they often collaborate with Feng Xiaogang, are not Huayi artists and have always been actors in the art troupe.

However, Huayi invested 15% of the shares no matter what, so we couldn’t let them feel cold.

In the end, Tang Ze chose Zhang Hanyu, who was more qualified.

Perhaps because of his deep impression, Tang Ze felt that Zhang Hanyu was too tough and didn't look like someone who could play a professor.

Even Lan Bo couldn't reach the standard, let alone He En.

This person needs to be somewhat elegant, easy-going, and intellectual.

In order to show that life has become heavier after losing his wife, he also had to grow a beard that looked a little unkempt.

The requirements are higher than Lanbo, and the people in Huayi have to be eliminated.

At present, I can only consider the old drama.

Seeing that Tang Ze only chose Zhang Hanyu, Hua Yi and Wang Wang thought it was okay because there were not many roles.

After a casual chat, I said goodbye to Tang Ze.

Tang Ze is still thinking about the role of He En.

Since he really didn't have a satisfactory candidate, he asked people in the company to consider it together and work together.

When the script for "Good Will Hunting" was first released, there was only one significant female character in it.

The three female artists in Tianze all know that most of them will not be able to participate in this project, so they have no expectations.

Only after knowing that the heroine was Liu Yifei, Wu Qian murmured several times, feeling that Tang Ze wrote this script for Liu Yifei, focusing on sex over company.

Although Ma Li was slightly surprised, she had no idea.

Zhao Liying felt a little depressed, but quickly relaxed her mind again.

Her belief is that she will do whatever Tangze tells her to do.

Don’t fight or grab, don’t cause trouble and don’t be squeamish.

But when given the opportunity, she will go all out to show herself.

In short, female artists have a salty mentality.

When I heard that Karasawa was going to participate in Cannes with "Good Will Hunting", I was just envious.

But when the two male artists Huo Jianxi and Shen Teng learned that they might not be able to participate in "Good Will Hunting", they both felt as if their world had collapsed and sighed.

Shen Teng felt sad about the spring and autumn, and joked: "Mr. Tang, once, you chose me because I was old."

"Now, you think I'm too young. I'm really conflicted."

Tang Ze didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said with relief: "Okay, it's just a movie. There will be many movies to be made in the future."

"This also proves that your reputation is not small, and I can't assign roles to you casually."

"Of course, my own ideas have limitations, so I have to ask for your opinions. Maybe I will change my mind?"

This is the troublesome thing about making foreign films.

The characters in Karasawa's impression are too deep-rooted, and it is always difficult to find a counterpart in China.

But in fact, regardless of the image in their minds, Chinese people may not be unable to show the magnanimity of the characters in the original film.

With Tang Ze's relief, the two male artists stopped being persistent and began to actively speak out about candidates who were suitable for Lan Bo and He En.

Everyone talked about a lot of roles, and they all favored veteran actors, among which Xiangjiang actors were the most popular.

But there are a few veteran actors in the mainland who can act, but others may not be willing to participate.

They already have enough food and clothing and don't care about the millions in salary.

For example, for the role of How En, Tang Ze had already sent an invitation to Chen Puhuan.

But I don’t know whether Chen Kuang planned to take a break for a few years or was not interested in his movies, so he refused.

Now that I think about it, the fact that Li Jiejian and Feng Yuanzhen were able to participate in "This Man Comes from Earth" had little to do with the script and was all due to Han Sanping.

If he really can't find a good actor, Tang Ze can only ask Han Sanping to act again.

But to be honest, he didn't want to trouble Han Sanping anymore.

Picking actors from Huayi is beneficial to Huayi.

Han Sanping helped him find actors, it was just based on friendship, I can’t figure it out!

The salaries for actors in Xiangjiang are too high. The top ones get tens of millions, and his budget of 10 million is simply not enough.

Selected at the end, the veteran actors who fit the image are either hard to come by at the right time or hard to find.

Everyone in Tianze thinks that young actors are also suitable.

In order to show his persuasiveness, Huo Jianxi wore a fake beard on the spot, so that it was impossible to tell that he was under 30 years old.

Shen Teng also joined in, growing a lush beard and makeup to make himself look older.

Tang Ze was completely hesitant now. After looking at the images of Huo Jianxi and Shen Teng, he felt that they were not bad either.

Although in his heart he hopes that both He En and Lan Bo will be played by veteran actors.

But as long as we let go, it seems that young people can also play the role of middle-aged uncles?

Later, Tangze didn't want to dampen the enthusiasm of Tianze artists, and he didn't bother to worry anymore.

Just audition for the roles of Lan Bo and He En.

All young actors who meet the requirements can participate, and there is no age limit.

It’s best if you can have experienced actors who fit the image. If you can’t, there’s nothing you can do about it. There aren’t many outstanding actors.

Casting requirements were quickly distributed to various film and television companies, and actors who felt they met the requirements immediately took action.

Soon, Tang Ze received a call from Han Sanping.

"Hey, Director Han, are you okay?"

There was silence for three seconds before he said: "Lu Chuan came to see me and wants Zhongjing's investment."

Tang Ze blurted out: "Is he going to film "Southern Shock! Southern Shock!"?"

"Huh?" Han Sanping asked in confusion: "You have really good information channels, and it only took a few days for his script to be submitted for review."

Han Sanping didn't think much and continued: "But I didn't agree. You have conflicts with him, and I'm afraid you'll snipe his movie!"

"Ahem!" Tang Ze said awkwardly: "Director Han, am I that domineering? As long as he doesn't target me for no reason, you can safely cast your mid-range movies and stagger my movies during the schedule."

The other side smiled and said: "Okay, I'm not blaming you."

"I was a little hesitant about the script. If I don't want to vote for it, I won't vote for it. It won't lose any meat."

"The notification is in place, I'll hang up first."

Not long after Han Sanping informed Tang Ze, Lu Chuan accepted an interview with reporters.

Lu Chuan seemed to have something against him both inside and outside his words.
