Before Tang An could speak, Wang Zhongjun asked first.
Although he would not be involved in Tang An's films, he was extremely reluctant to use Chengtian's artists to switch jobs from Huayi.
It would be great if Liu Tao has a suitable candidate, preferably from his own company.
"People are in our company."
Liu Tao smiled mysteriously, gave it up, and made a phone call.
Then his secretary came over with a stack of photos, and Liu Tao sent them one by one.
Isn't this Lu Yi?
Tang An recognized him at a glance. There was a big gap between the long-haired Lu Yi and now.
There is a still photo from "Pink Girl", and the long hair looks a bit like Baodao style, just like Daoming Si in F4, so take advantage of it.
Some of the other pictures look a little younger. There is a poster for "Blood Child Heart" that looks less than 20 years old.
But there is one photo that satisfies Tang An the most. It also has slightly curly long hair, similar to that of Kim Sung-wu in "Go Left to Right", but the bangs on the forehead are not parted in the middle, but combed back, and the hair is the same twice.
Comb back.
"The gap is so huge that I didn't even remember that our company still had a national idol from the beginning of the century."
Tang An shook his head. The person was right in front of him, but he was ignored.
"Lu Yi does meet Director Tang's requirements." Wang Zhongjun nodded, his own actor couldn't be better.
Tang An thought for a while and said, "Let's do this, Mr. Liu. You tell him to put on makeup and this hairstyle. See if there is a suitable wig. Also, make him look younger."
It's quite suitable, but Lu Yi is too mature now. Although he, Wang Xiaoming and Deng Chao are all of the same age group, they look much younger than Lu Yi.
Moreover, the two of them have a funny personality and look even younger.
At this time, Lu Yi should be filming "Who Calls the Shots of My Youth", he is quite mature in that film.
The temperament and appearance are almost the same, but it seems that he is not a prodigal. After all, the character is a young man who is proficient in drinking, fighting, and singing karaoke.
The male lead has been decided for now, whether it suits him or not depends on the effect of makeup.
Then comes the heroine.
"The goddess of literature and art in college, do you have any suitable actors to recommend?"
"How about Lin Xinru? She's famous enough and has a literary temperament!"
"Xixuan is pretty good. Her character in "Snowflake Goddess Dragon" was a hit and was regarded as a goddess by many viewers."
"I think An Yixuan is very suitable..."
In addition to Li Xue and Huang Feng, the three major agents all proposed their own candidates.
Li Xue doesn't have any female artists at all, and she won't let anyone threaten her sister's interests even in the slightest.
As for Huang Feng...he will bring Zou Xun.
Tang An shook his head without thinking, these people didn't meet the requirements at all.
"The heroine's total appearance time is less than 10 minutes, and she is the goddess of the whole school. She must be unique and cannot be forgotten after one glance."
"And she is also Cheng Dongqing's first love and ex-girlfriend. The image I set is that of a literary goddess with a cold temperament. Because she was cold, she left without any sloppiness. When I saw Cheng Dongqing again, there was no wave. It was like
Ignoring Cheng Dongqing’s success over the years is in sharp contrast to Cheng Dongqing’s image in the eyes of the outside world..."
There was an uncut version of this movie, and I really wanted to punch someone after watching it.
Su Mei went to the United States without looking back, but had a wild fight on the grass by the river with an American whom she had not known for long.
He took the initiative, and the man was not a rich man.
Fortunately, this part was not shown on the big screen, otherwise the taste would have completely changed.
It was originally a positive, uplifting and positive movie showing the entrepreneurship of contemporary young people, but suddenly a cruel reality appeared.
That is true, but it will turn into rat shit in a pot of porridge.
What the audience wants to see is the history of the struggle of young people in the 1980s and 1990s, not the history of decadence.
Leave a perfect image of a goddess in the audience's mind. Don't ruin the goddess in your heart.
Tang An's words clearly rejected their candidate, and they couldn't say anything about it.
If you are an ordinary director, you will still need to use it.
Most of the characters in Zhang Jizhong's Jin Yong dramas in recent years, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer", and "The Deer and the Cauldron" are Huayi people, so there is no need to use them.
"Does Mr. Tang already have a candidate in mind?" Wang Zhongjun asked aloud.
Wang Zhongjun didn't care much about the few minutes of the scene. He was satisfied that the three leading actors were all actors from the company.
"I have taken a fancy to a model named Du Juan. She seems to be signed to IMG, but her current agent is Chen Zhiwei, who is known as the fashion godfather of Shanghai."
...
model?
Although Huayi has a wide range of businesses and often interacts with the fashion industry, she still doesn’t know much about the modeling industry.
He turned his attention to Wang Zhonglei. His younger brother loved to play, so he should understand.
Wang Zhonglei immediately explained, "This Du Juan is a supermodel who has emerged in the past two years. She has been to the four major fashion weeks and has been selected into the top 50 of the world's most authoritative models. She is also the only Chinese."
"Since Mr. Wang knows, I ask you to contact me."
Tang An was settled, and it was hard for others to say anything.
"Every other actor who looks like a suitable candidate should report it to me. There is also a more important matter: inviting some American foreign teachers to teach them some English, authentic American English."
Although Wang Xiaoming's spoken English is not as bad as when he sang the English song "One World One Dream" and was criticized by netizens for "too much trouble", it is still far from the requirements in the movie.
Not at all, the pronunciation when pronounced together is almost too cliche, and the pronouncing is not bad. This phrase is usually not pronounced consecutively. It can only be said that the lyrics of the song are not perfect, and the composition is not perfect. I did not think of this.
He was not originally a singer, and he was not good at English. The lyrics and songs did not match the tune. The phrase "not at all" that shocked the whole country even hit a high note, so he was very embarrassed.
How can I teach students if I don’t know how to speak well, so practicing speaking is a must.
"You just need to be familiar with some of the lines in the script. The pronunciation must be standard. It doesn't matter if you don't know the meaning."
"No problem, leave this to me."
...
After the meeting, Tang An returned to the office.
Not long after, Lu Yi arrived, already wearing a wig and applying makeup.
"Hello, Mr. Tang!"
"Sit down."
The last time we collaborated was on "Terror Cruise", even though I was hired as a bit player, basically anyone could play the role and there were no requirements, but this time I can't be so casual.
"I haven't seen you for a while, how are you now?"
"Fortunately, there is one movie being filmed and another one being prepared."
Lu Yi was a little excited. After coming to Huayi, there were basically no good movie roles. The leading role in Tang An's new film this time can be said to be his best role so far.
