Xiao Qian's time is limited, so he might as well make arrangements directly.
A'Zhu's role in the play is not many, but it is very important.
This character is actually not that old, and his personality is not just gentle and sweet, but has an eccentric side and likes to play tricks on people.
The TVB version of A'Zhu was very good, but the image was too bad. The bearded version was too mature, that's not A'Zhu, that's Bai Jie.
Therefore, Xiao Qian chose Zhu Yin.
Strictly speaking, with Zhu Yin's current reputation, playing the role of A'Zhu is cheap. But fortunately, this role doesn't have many roles, so it can be treated as a guest appearance.
Everyone here has read the novel at least three times.
After connecting A'Zhu and Zhu Yin together, they all had to admire Xiao Qian's vision.
"Azi's words..."
Xiao Qian thought for a while and simply took out the phone on the spot.
After a while, I remembered a cheerful and familiar voice on the other side.
"Mr. Xiao, what can you do to take care of me?"
Everyone here could hear it, it was comforting.
Xiao Qian smiled and said: "Dragon Movie is about to start filming, A Zi or Zhong Ling, you choose one?"
The other person was stunned for a moment, and then said with certainty: "Of course I will play A Zi."
Xiao Qian teased her.
"Why not choose Zhong Ling? Zhong Ling is so cute."
Shu Chang hummed.
"Tch, am I stupid? A'Zi's role is not much more important than Zhong Ling's? A'Zi can be regarded as the heroine."
Xiao Qian laughed and admired this smart girl.
"Okay, get ready and come to the crew to report when the time comes."
Compared with A'Zhu, A'Zi is even more like a little girl.
The book describes in detail a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. Therefore, the environment she grew up in did not differentiate between good and evil, but she was as beautiful as a fairy.
Among the actors that Xiao Qian thought of, Shu Chang was the most suitable.
The appearance is passable and the acting skills are guaranteed. Isn't it much better than the bearded version?
Zhang's bearded version of Ah Zi, is that an innocent and romantic little girl who doesn't distinguish between good and evil?
She was clearly the vixen sister-in-law who seduced her brother-in-law and ran away with him.
It would not be inconsistent to separate the plot and label it as an ethical film.
It's not a matter of whether the acting is good or not, it's just a matter of seeing the person acting.
The same goes for Zhang Dabeard, who didn't choose Shu Chang, who was suitable for Ah Zi, and asked her to play the role of Tianshan's child grandmother.
Good guy, as soon as the three claws on the head came out, the audience was all dumbfounded.
The Tianshan Child Mother only looks like a little girl physically, but in terms of mind and experience, she is a real ninety-six-year-old old woman.
That ghost looks like the servants who take care of her dressing up can be made into flower fertilizer.
Ah Zi has also done it, and next is Mu Wanqing.
"Contact Sun Feifei and ask if there is a schedule."
Many people praised Zhang's bearded version of Mu Wanqing, but Xiao Qian said it was really not good.
Mu Wanqing is a little girl with a violent temper but who is not familiar with the world. She is not a tomboy. She is also extremely beautiful and heroic, which is actually quite difficult to play.
Now that Shu Chang is playing the role of A Zi, it is also difficult to find a young actress like Zhong Ling.
"I remember there is a little girl named Yang Mi. Please ask if she can play the role. If so, let her play Zhong Ling. If not, we will find someone else."
Although Da Mi Mi is still a high school student now, she has been involved in film and television for a long time. Not to mention her acting skills, but her image is definitely suitable for a pure and cute girl like Zhong Ling.
Besides, Xiao Qian is still responsible for training him personally.
The people below are used to it. When Xiao Qian announces a person's name, they just take notes and then find him.
I don’t know why, but the actors chosen by Xiao Qian always fit the roles so well. After a long time, these staff members became numb.
I just hope that I can learn one-tenth of Xiao Qian's talent for finding people, so that I can be successful in the entertainment industry.
"As for Murong Fu, there is a Korean actor named Song Seung-heon. I am responsible for contacting him."
Xiao Qian decided on the actor Murong Fu again.
Zhang's bearded version of Xiu Qing is generally okay, but he has too much sense of justice and has more of a protagonist's temperament than the protagonist.
Song Seung-heon is pretty good.
I don’t know why, Song Seung-heon is obviously very handsome, and with his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, he is the embodiment of justice. But there is always an air of exaggeration in his temperament. It would be a waste not to play Murong Fu.
"What about Kang Min? This role is not easy to play, but it is extremely important."
Zhang Dabeard is more concerned about the quality of the entire drama and pays more attention to the soul of the drama than to other characters.
As a result, when we arrived at Xiao Qian's place, there was no embarrassment at all.
"What's so difficult about this? Just let Sister Wang Siyi act."
When he said this, everyone burst into laughter.
Wang Siyi has played Pan Jinlian and Li Mochou before. If she plays Kang Min again, she will become a professional bad woman.
But this time Zhang Dabeard expressed a different opinion.
"Wang Siyi can't do it, right? Her image is too upright. Kang Min is a ruthless and charming character. I'm afraid the audience won't recognize her."
Xiao Qian had to act as a teacher again.
"I tell you, you are still looking at the problem too superficially. The description of Kang Min in the book, before the true nature is exposed, is awe-inspiring and inviolable, like a flawless white lotus. In your imagination, does the image of Sister Wang Siyi fit in well? As for you
She can't act like Kang Min, but let me tell you, the more pure and elegant someone is when they act in coquettish ways, the more interesting it will be."
Zhang Dabeard's eyes were chattering and he couldn't help but said: "You know a lot."
Xiao Qian was furious.
"You don't understand. I wish you a son later in life."
Zhang Dabeard didn't understand what he was talking about, but he didn't dare to ask in detail because of the crowd, so he had to pay attention to the cast.
"Who will play Jiumozhi? I see Bayin..."
here we go again!
Xiao Qian is destined to have trouble with him.
"There is a Hong Kong actor named Li Guolin. You go and invite him. You must invite him."
Speaking of Jiumozhi, I, the great king of cuteness, must have a card.
Jiumozhi is a handsome guy, with a majestic appearance and the light of the Buddha. Bayin has a bandit-like appearance. He plays the role of Jinlun Dharma King and Xiang Wentianxing, and Jiumozhi lectures on Buddhism...
Do you listen?
Some staff members were quick and searched the Internet for photos of Li Guolin and showed them to Zhang DaHu. Zhang DaHu was not sure whether this actor was suitable for him or not.
But Xiao Qian's past magic was there, so he had no choice but to believe it first.
The content of "Tian Long Ba Bu" is very grand, and the cast of characters far exceeds that of other martial arts novels. However, after peeling back the layers, there are still only so many main actors.
The next heavyweight actor is Duan Yanqing.
Xiao Qian thought for a while and chose one that was more suitable.
"Duan Yanqing lets Ren Shiguan play the role."
Except for Teacher Ji Chunhua, Ren Shiguan is also a professional bad guy. After practicing for so long, it is not difficult to play Duan Yanqing.
Everyone is familiar with Ren Shiguan. After comparison, we found that it is really suitable.
But here with Ding Chunqiu, Xiao Qian was in a dilemma.
Neither the TVB version nor the bearded version of Ding Chunqiu are good, they are too different. Let Xiao Qian choose a suitable one, and he still has no idea for a while.
Ding Chunqiu looks childish and has fair hair, a standard old handsome guy, and he also has the air of a fairy. But he is cruel, cunning, and unscrupulous. Just like Kang Min, he is a character whose appearance is completely opposite to his reality.
He's handsome, he's quite old, and he still has to be able to act in a bad way, which is really difficult.
Xiao Qian wrote down the request and gave it to Zhang Dabeard.
"Look through it, I hope you can find something suitable."
Seeing that Xiao Qian had not decided, everyone in the crew was surprised, but also excited.
This is how you feel involved.
"Does Tianshan Child Elder also need us to look for her?"
Finally got the opportunity to choose the actors. Zhang Dabeard is very active and wants to be more responsible.
But when it came to Tianshan Child Mother, Xiao Qian blinked and suddenly had a bold idea.
"No need for now. I have a goal. Let her try it first. If it works, it's best. If it doesn't, you can find another one."
Tianshan Tonglao is a famous character in the book, full of legend. Although her role is similar to that of Zhong Ling, she has a great influence on the entire play.
In the previous life, "Dragon Movie" has filmed countless versions, and many actors have played the role of Tianshan Tonglao. But overall, none of them have performed the charm of this role.
For all the reasons, the quality requirements for actors are really too high.
Tianshan Tonglao looks like a little girl less than ten years old, but has the mind of an old lady, and even her voice is hoarse and mature.
These performances are almost anti-human.
Which actor can completely fit the bill?
Originally, there was an excellent actor to choose for the version with a big beard.
That is Zhou Xun.
Mr. Zhou really has a typical loli appearance, an old woman's voice, and a very beautiful appearance. If he were to play the role of Tianshan's childhood sweetheart, he would be extremely suitable.
With Zhang Dabeard's favor, it was basically not difficult to invite Mr. Zhou to play this role.
Isn’t it much better than the three comfortable ones?
Xiao Qian felt that the producers of those previous versions might have fallen into some misunderstandings.
Since it is difficult for mature actors to play the role of the Tianshan Child Mother, why not try a young actor?
Xiao Qian didn't have Mr. Zhou, so he decided to go in the opposite direction and find a young but mature actor to play the role of the Tianshan Child Mother.
I just hope that after her performance, she will not be made into emoticons by her fans in the future.
