Generally speaking, there are several situations when selecting actors for a movie. One is that the investor fortifies people. This situation naturally does not exist in Li Yi's crew.
Then there are only two ways left.
If the director is famous enough, the actors will usually choose some relatively famous stars, and these stars will have to audition and compete.
Of course, there is also a method where the director directly appoints an actor to play a certain role.
For example, Li Yi directly cast Wen Qing to play the heroine Huang Qiuxia because he has absolute control over his crew.
"As for the heroine, Director Li, you have already decided on the remaining actors. Does Director Li plan to invite actors to audition, or..." Zhuo Yixiong asked.
Li Yi looked at his father and mother.
Li Zhenye coughed and said: "Since your new movie project was approved, many people have said hello. They are all old friends. I did not agree, but it is not easy to refuse directly, so it is best for the male protagonist to call them all over.
Just audition, after all, some favors must be returned."
Li Yi was not too surprised by this.
In a society of favors, favors are always the most difficult to repay.
The earlier "Bitter and Happy Life" and the later "The Gift of Room No. 7" can be said to have used a lot of favors.
Now, it is indeed time to pay it back.
Of course, returning a favor does not mean that we will directly use the candidate recommended by the other party, especially the male protagonist of the film.
Of course, if Li Yi has a favorite candidate, he can naturally decide first, but he still has to go through the cutscene.
"For the male lead, just choose a time to audition. What about the other roles? Do you have any recommendations?" Li Yi looked at Zhuo Yixiong and his parents again.
Different from the male and female protagonists, other, even some supporting roles, because in "Mom Love Me Again", the supporting roles are not young characters, so they are not so popular, and there are only so many people who can play them. Li
Li Yi didn't know many people in this area. On the contrary, Zhuo Yixiong and his parents were more familiar with this area, so Li Yi naturally asked them to recommend him directly.
Of course, you will definitely have to pass Li Yi in the end.
"I think your father is quite suitable for the role of Lin Guorong." Yi Lingling glanced at Li Zhenye and said.
Suddenly Lao Li’s face turned dark!
Zhuo Yixiong looked at his nose and heart, as if he was just here to make soy sauce, and did not express any opinions at all.
But Li Yi glanced at Lao Li with a strange expression.
Lao Li coughed and said: "Ahem, I'd better forget it. Today is different from the past. Now I don't have to worry about no one starring in Xiao Yi's movies."
Li Yi and Zhuo Yixiong looked at each other, and they both saw a little smile in each other's eyes.
After all, the character Lin Guorong is not that positive. He can be said to be one of the villains in the movie.
Well, to a certain extent, my mother is obviously unkindly insinuating Lao Li!
Naturally, Li Yi will not express his opinions easily. Of course, his mother is just trying to counteract his father, and Lao Li will definitely not play the role of Lin Guorong.
If nothing else, I don’t know what the outside world will think of it after it’s played. If the performance is good, I’m afraid after it’s released, those busybodies may not say that Lao Li is acting in his true colors, which would be embarrassing.
After Yi Lingling responded to Lao Li for a while, she stopped talking.
The heroine has been decided. Although Wen Qing is indeed suitable, after all, it was recommended by Yi Lingling. Neither Lao Li nor Zhuo Yixiong would mention the heroine matter again. The other one was also decided by Li Yi.
.
"Except for the male and female protagonists, for the other roles, you should look for some candidates according to my requirements, and then just audition together." Li Yi was too lazy to continue talking. Of course he understands the matter of human relationships, but every turn is a carrot and a trap. p>
There were only a few roles, but there were definitely more than one or two people who came through personal recommendations, so he simply accepted them all and auditioned directly. If he was chosen, he was good at it. If he wasn't chosen, it would be inappropriate.
No one can say anything.
Originally, favors are favors, but equally, the movie itself is the most important. It is impossible to ignore the quality of the movie just because of favors.
This is why, most of the time, some important characters are not really used as favors.
Even if the favor is difficult to refuse, the actor must be recommended by the other party and can indeed be used.
Under similar circumstances, give priority to related accounts, which is the correct way to open.
The first preparatory meeting came to an end.
Li Yi, however, kept his mother and asked, "Mom, what's going on with Wen Qing now?"
No wonder Li Yi would ask, the main reason is that in this movie, to put it bluntly, the role of Huang Qiuxia played by Wen Qing can be said to play a crucial role in the quality of the movie.
She is definitely the female lead, and she has the most roles.
Although Wen Qing is an old actor and a child star, and can be said to have been acting for more than 20 years, Li Yi still wants to see how far Wen Qing can do it.
Yi Lingling said with a smile: "What? Are you still worried about the people recommended by my mother?"
Li Yi shook his head and said: "No, the movie is about to start shooting, so of course I have to understand the status of her heroine."
"After she took our job some time ago, she went to find the prototype for the movie." Yi Lingling said.
"The prototype of the movie?" Li Yi was a little confused.
"Hi, she has acted in crazy dramas before, but different movies are different after all. So, she said she wanted to find a mother who went crazy because she lost her child. No, she found it, and during this time, she
I stayed with that mother all the time including food and accommodation." Yi Lingling became a little depressed when she said this.
"A mother who went crazy because she lost her child?" Li Yi said in shock.
"Yeah, that's a poor person too!" Yi Lingling sighed.
"That mother lives in the country?" Li Yi suddenly frowned and asked again.
Yi Lingling nodded.
"Mom, will something happen?" Li Yi said worriedly.
Yi Lingling was stunned for a moment, then she poked Li Yi's forehead with her finger and said angrily: "What are you thinking about? What age are you in? Let me tell you, your Aunt Wen Qing may not be as famous as those big stars.
, but in the countryside, big stars may not be as famous as your Aunt Wen."
Li Yi smiled and said: "Aunt Wen is a beautiful woman anyway. Going alone is a bit risky."
"Who told you that your Aunt Wen went alone? Didn't you think of this when you thought you were Aunt Wen? In short, don't worry about your Aunt Wen's affairs. I'm warning you, what are you doing outside?
Mom doesn't care about it, she can't control it, but your Aunt Wen is your mother's best friend, so don't worry about it." Yi Lingling glared at Li Yidao.
Li Yi was immediately dumbfounded.
What and what?
"Mom, do you think of me like this? I'm your biological son..." Li Yi suddenly became dissatisfied.
"Yeah, don't you think your mother knows about all the bad things you did outside? If you want to see it, you should calm down. I think Nannan is good. You used to think she was fat, but now
This woman has changed a lot, and all her thoughts are focused on you..."
"Mom, stop, don't mention this matter. I also made an appointment with Uncle You Ningsheng to discuss the script. Let's go first!" Li Yi hurriedly ran away.
