Chapter eight hundred and forty seventh military art school grass
Ning Hao usually drinks one and a half kilograms, and his drunkenness last night was largely due to his depressed mood. He went home and slept until midnight before he sobered up. After he woke up, he couldn't fall asleep, so he turned over the script of "The Crowd" again.
Twice. Of course, the script cannot be perfect, and it often needs to be adjusted during actual filming.
After being stimulated, or in other words, he arched up because of the stimulation, he suddenly felt impatient. The creative desire deep in his heart was extremely high, and he was eager to prove himself. He finally stayed up until dawn, and after a few bites, he hurried
He rushed to the company and slipped He Xin over.
"Chen Xiaomeng must form a contrast with Zhou Quan..."
Ning Hao was talking about his requirements for actors, and He Xin was also thinking about the original version of the movie. When he watched it in his previous life, he had no impression of the Japanese actors in it. He only remembered that Zhou Quan's prototype was an uncle, and Chen Xiaomeng's prototype was a young boy.
Fresh meat, and the heroine looks a bit silly and sweet.
The contrast between the uncle and the little fresh meat is obvious, but if you want to find someone who is in obvious contrast with He Xin, and this is an absurd comedy movie, the choices are relatively narrow. For example, Wang Kai, Huang Xuan, etc. are not suitable.
.
"What do you think of Baoqiang?"
The first thing Ning Hao thought of was Wang Baoqiang. He has always had a unique preference for crooked melons and cracked dates. Moreover, Wang Baoqiang was originally an extra, so he should have a better life in this area.
"Baoqiang..."
At first, He Xin also thought Baoqiang was quite suitable, but after careful consideration, he still shook his head and said: "Baoqiang's current positioning is that of Shagen and Xu Sanduo. It seems that there is a big gap between Baoqiang and Chen Xiaomeng."
Bao Qiang's role as Niu Geng is very popular this time in "Journey to the Road". However, from the moment he became famous when he appeared in "A World Without Thieves" to now, he has always been a character like Sha Gen. Including the characters he later created.
Various screen images, including Tang Ren in the "Tang Detective" series, are inseparable from the word "silly".
What stands out about the character Chen Xiaomeng is that he is a chicken thief, a little smart, but also a little bit vulgar and greasy. Moreover, his image should be lovable so that the audience will not be disgusted by it, which is commonly known as having audience popularity.
Popularity with the audience is very important and often determines the success or failure of a movie. For example, if Baoqiang is equally exaggerated, Baoqiang will look funny, but the bald guy named Bao will be offensive; if Xiaoming is equally handsome, Xiaoming will make people feel greasy.
, will never be as refreshing as Andy Lau, Brother Hu, or even King Xie Bi; and in terms of being greasy and accepted and even sought after by the audience, the only one who has a box office of 20 billion is Shen Teng.
"In addition, Bald Xu is preparing for the sequel to "Jonky Road". The partnership between him and Bao Qiang is already very mature. If Bao Qiang and I are paired together, it will inevitably affect the audience's expectations."
He Xin did not hide his selfishness. After all, from the perspective of economic interests, "囧" is obviously much more important than "The Crowd".
"If Baoqiang can't do it, he won't be able to find a suitable one for a while!" Ning Hao said depressedly.
He admitted that what He Xin said made sense, but he was still a little unwilling to give up. On the one hand, Bao Qiang had the box office appeal of "Jonny Road"; on the other hand, he really couldn't think of anyone who could compare with him.
Baoqiang is more suitable.
"Then why don't you audition first and try out a few other roles by the way?"
"Well, that's all we can do for now!" Ning Hao shook his head.
With that said, he opened the script again: "Come, let's discuss the script again..."
The script of "The Crowd" is already very mature. The plot is almost based on the Japanese movie that He Xin remembers. It is just a localized adaptation of some plots with obvious Japanese characteristics.
As for the Japanese movie from the original time and space, He Xin checked it carefully and found that it has not been released yet. Anyway, I don't care about it. Whoever gets the first opportunity will get it.
…
Ning Hao really got serious this time. The creative team behind the scenes consisted of the iron triangle of director, photography, and art design. He did not hesitate to abandon his old partner Du Jie and hired a professor from the Nortel Photography Department. He was once known as "
Zhao Fei, one of the "Three Musketeers" of the 1978 Photography Department, and the art designer of "Du Lala" were hired by Lin Mu, who was also an outstanding graduate of the Nortel Art Department.
After the team behind the scenes determined the iron triangle, everything else was easy to handle. Xinhao Media has now gathered a large group of so-called direct relatives. Then they came with a plot synopsis of more than a thousand words, a single-film shooting application, and funds issued by the bank.
Submit the application to the competent authority with proof, etc.
Nowadays, the review conditions before filming are very broad. As long as it is not a sensitive subject, it can be done smoothly. Now all that is left is to select the right actors. Originally, I wanted to do the casting on a small scale. I didn’t want to do the shooting. I wanted to quietly enter the village.
.But I don’t know who was the liar and actually leaked the news.
Well, now, talented directors Ning Hao and He Xin, the two bosses of Xinhao Media, have joined forces again. He Xin’s status is there, the Berlin Best Actor, the absolute number one young actor in China;
Although "Human Zone" was banned for two years, the "Crazy" series is still fresh in people's memory. This time it is the absurd comedy theme that he is good at. The media Wuyang Wuyang came to block the door, and the momentum was much greater than before.
The newly resigned Berlin jury is much older.
This time the company couldn't deal with it, so in the end they had to ask Xiao Douding to come forward and hold a simple press conference. The general meaning was that the movie was still in preparation, so please be patient. As for the plot, the main creator, etc., except for the leaker Ning
Apart from Hao and He Xin, there is nothing else to comment on.
But reporters were obsessed with writing whatever they wanted. As a result, the company received hundreds of resumes and a large number of recommendations from agents within a few days.
This is what happens in the industry today. In terms of influence alone, they are definitely the three great directors: Guoshi, Director Chen, and Pants. As long as they can be in their movies, how many celebrities will cry to the sky even if they take off their pants.
.
Even if it's Director Chen who is always on the street, he just has this ability, and one movie can lift you up to the top.
Secondly, Hong Kong directors such as Xu Laoguai, Chen Kexin, and Wu Yusen who went north also quickly became famous. Unfortunately, there are fewer opportunities in their hands, because they are more willing to praise their own people. There is no way, no matter what
There will always be regional grouping. Otherwise, the country would not be divided into Beijing Circle, Northwest Circle, Northeast Circle and so on.
Again, it’s the turn of Lou Ye, Chief Jia, and Wang Xiaoshuai, the so-called sixth-generation directors. They take a completely different route. Although no one sees the film, they can gain recognition internationally. If they are lucky, they can also
Get a prize.
No one, no matter newcomers or big names, can escape the attraction of the first two types of directors. As for the latter type of director, newcomers may not be very motivated. After all, it is not easy to become popular with less money and a lower audience. On the contrary, some stars are very energetic.
Those who are on top, especially those who have proven themselves in business, like Fan Xiaopang, even do not hesitate to invest their own money. To put it bluntly, they urgently need a trophy to complete their transformation from an idol to a powerful one.
As for the pairing of Ning Hao and He Xin, with the "Crazy" series, the "genius director" Ning Hao can barely squeeze into the second-tier directors.
And He Xin is simply a different kind. The projects he manages, one is awesome and the other is awesome. Commercial films have box office, and literary films can win awards. He has never failed. He is not very old, but he is no less than a national teacher.
Director Chen, a mentor like Pants, is at the godfather level.
The news originally leaked out, and Ning Hao planned to simply audition with great fanfare, but he still underestimated the influence of the combination of himself and He Xin. Many big names in the industry are like Si Dan Shuang Bing, Xiao Ming Ge, Deng Chao, and Tong Dawei
, people like Yan Wang, although they are not low-level enough to submit their resumes, they still rely on others to guide them, both covertly and covertly.
Ning Hao couldn't bear the trouble, so he simply put the casting job on He Xin.
He Xin is also in trouble, not to mention that he still owes Fan Xiaopang a favor, and he doesn't have to care about others, but Zhou Xun and Sister Lianhua are old friends, and they can only be the leading female.
Today's version of "The Crowd" is completely different from the later remake of "The Crowd". As for the actresses, in addition to the female lead Li Xiang, the boss's mistress Zeng Jiurong, who is also the target of the killer, has a heavier role, and the others
They are all guest appearances.
The character Li Xiang cannot be the same as the silly and sweet image in the original Japanese movie. Since the character is set as the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine, although it does not necessarily have to be the image of a very aggressive strong woman, she must at least have a knowledgeable person.
Sexy. Neither Shuang Bing nor Mr. Zhou possesses this.
At first, He Xin wanted to find Sister Feihong, but Sister Feihong was obviously a outdated character at the moment, and the failure of "Love Has an Afterlife" made him hesitate for a while.
…
"You just don't like Yaya so much?"
Cheng Hao is very dissatisfied with her husband. It's obviously his company's drama, so why should he let his wealth and wealth go to someone else?
Currently, Xinmiao Studio has a total of two contracted actors, and they are both on the crew of "The Legend of Zhen Huan". Song Tie, the newbie, is easy to handle. Her temperament is very suitable for the timid and sinister person next door to Chen Xiaomeng.
Deep shit shovel officer.
But Tong Yali is very ambitious and wants to challenge the role of the female lead Li Xiang. In He Xin's eyes, this is obviously not practical, let alone the female lead. Even the role of the second female lead Zeng Jiurong is not up to her.
"She can't do it. She's not suitable in terms of appearance or acting skills. Not to mention that she can't pass it here, she definitely can't pass it by Haozi." He Xin shook his head.
As he said that, he looked at his unhappy wife and hurriedly changed the subject: "By the way, I was just about to tell you about this. When the time comes, you can play a role in the play."
"What role? I'm so fat, can I appear on the scene?" Cheng Hao was indeed distracted, and he looked at his waist and said worriedly.
This guy was busy wagging his tail and said flatteringly: "Of course you can, your figure is just right now. You don't know, there is a female star in the play, it is best to find a real female star. Think about it, reality
There are only a few female celebrities who are good enough to become celebrities, and they don’t have many roles. If you ask someone else whether they will agree or not, even if they agree, you have to ask for a favor. So, just help me!"
Cheng Hao rolled his eyes at him, then looked at his waist and asked, "When will that be?"
"It's not urgent. It doesn't matter if you have a guest role. When you are free to come over and visit the team, we can shoot it at that time."
"What about the role of the female lead Li Xiang?"
Cheng Hao is not the kind of unreasonable person. The dissatisfaction just now was just a tantrum and coquettishness. She can still distinguish what is serious and what is serious. And she can also see that Ning Hao is not ordinary about this movie.
Attention. In a sense, this is a movie where he wants to prove himself again.
"It's hard to find. It's really not possible. I have to choose between Yu Feihong and Li Bingbing." He Xin said with a headache.
The former is more in line with the character Li Xiang in the script, while the latter is well-known after all.
"You didn't think of Sister Qinqin?" Cheng Hao said suddenly.
"Well……"
He Xin froze for a moment and suddenly looked at his wife, his heart skipping a beat, fearing that the other party was deliberately testing him.
It's not that he hasn't thought about Jiang Qinqin, it's just that during this period of time, he has been keeping a distance from her intentionally or unintentionally. After all, he has a daughter. If he still eats from the bowl and looks at the pot, this is unethical and immoral;
In addition, he is also afraid that he will have too much contact with the other party, especially when filming requires full concentration, and he really does not have much confidence in his own resistance.
"What's in your eyes?" Cheng Hao curled his lips when he saw his husband looking straight at him.
"No, why did you suddenly think of her?"
"Oh, sister Qinqin called me today. The TV series she is starring in is about to be finished. By the way, she also mentioned your new movie. Although she didn't say it clearly, I still understand the meaning. If you really can't find a suitable one,
Yes, I think Sister Qinqin is quite suitable. Don’t forget, when you last filmed "The Piano", you still owed family favors."
He Xin was sure that his wife had no intention of testing, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he felt a little guilty for his wife. He thought about it and said: "I can't decide this matter alone. In the end, I have to
Haozi has made the decision."
…
"Jiang Qinqin? No problem! Don't mention it, she and Li Xiang are very compatible. Their age, image, and acting skills are all fine. Especially..." Ning Hao smiled strangely in the middle of his sentence.
Of course He Xin could hear his subtext and said hurriedly: "You kid, don't talk nonsense, I have nothing to do with her."
When he and Jiang Qinqin were in Chongqing, anyone who was interested could see something. Fortunately, this kind of situation is common in the industry, and the people who were interested were all very close to each other. Everyone knew each other and understood each other.
It’s not announced, at most it’s just a joke in private.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, it's okay."
This guy had a narrow smile on his face, and then changed the topic: "What about Chen Xiaomeng?"
"It's hard to find. Where are you here?"
Chen Xiaomeng is a very important character, and at the same time he also faces a dilemma. There are definitely suitable actors, but they are all newcomers or unknowns. But if you consider the box office factor, He Xin is still more inclined to find stars, and Bao Qiang will definitely pass
, or else it is Deng Chao, but the comedy elements of Deng Chao have not yet been highlighted.
"Here I am? Just now I was watching some audition clips sent over by Xiao He. They were all totally unreliable."
Xiao He is Ning Hao's assistant director and is currently in charge of casting on the crew.
"Yeah, let me see."
There are many clips of the audition, which are stored on a mobile hard drive.
Indeed, as Ning Hao said, they were all average and nothing stood out. Just when he was about to stop watching, a person appeared on the computer screen. The performance was also a mess, but his face, He
Xin was delighted when he saw it: Isn’t this a military artist?
