327 Who is the hero
Sitting face to face, Li Yunlong had no airs. It seemed that older actors did not have airs. On the contrary, young big brands were more likely to expand into the sky.
It is unreasonable to say that it will test Li Yunlong's acting skills, but it still needs to try it out to see if it fits or not. This role is not locked, leaving the actors with a lot of room to play. As long as it is funny and interesting, you can play whatever you want.
Li Yunlong took a deep breath and showed a frank smile on his face: "I'm not suitable for this drama."
“…”
Wade just lowered his head to suck the cat, and Lu Jian had to push himself up: "I thought you meant to come here, at least you want to try it."
"Yes, I want to try that second male supporting role, I'm suitable for that one."
"That's a gentle warm man..."
"I'm almost a grandpa, and I know what gentleness is."
"Of course you can try it." Lu Jian flipped through Wade's big data. It did show that Li Yunlong was the second candidate for this role, but Lu Jian still wanted to fight for it. "Don't you want to challenge the domineering president who is particularly verbal? You subverted the image of a soldier in anti-Japanese dramas. I think you have this ability."
"I'm too much, I know what I have to do." Li Yunlong waved his hand and smiled, "I can only play the roles that belong to the past."
“How to say it?”
"You thought the military character from the past was brand new and subversive, but it was not. He had existed for a long time. There were such soldiers everywhere in the camp and life. I just refined and condensed the highlights of it. I am a person who lived in the past and was suitable for doing such things." Li Yunlong smiled generously, "But I have no inspiration, experience and cognition in this drama. The only thing I can imagine is a lovely local rich man, right?"
"It's true, but you..."
"Xiao Lu, there is no need to say more." Li Yunlong raised his hand and said, "I have been acting for a lifetime and know what I can pick up and what I can't pick up."
"Okay... let's try the second male supporting role..."
The audition went smoothly, and Li Yunlong effortlessly performed a gentle and a little cute old gentleman. When he was about to leave, Lu Jian had only one problem.
"Are you willing to be a supporting role in this drama?"
"The protagonist is a role, and he is under pressure and he holds the box office; the supporting role is a role, so how can he do it?" Li Yunlong patted Lu Jian's shoulder and smiled, "I finally asked me to play, why should I refuse? I don't want to play those decent roles with a stern face. I want to vomit when I see it."
"Haha..." Lu Jian returned to the courtesy, "Because our newcomer has been launched, our plan is filmed smoothly, which may be a waste of time."
"Is it a smooth film?" Li Yunlong said in surprise, "It's good to shoot it smoothly, it's like acting in a drama. Don't just delay it until the second half of the year. I'll have to rest in the second half of the year."
"Don't worry about this."
Saying Li Yunlong away, Wade's audition characters came in sequence according to the planned order.
Compared with the casting that the crew had been struggling before, the day was terrifyingly efficient. With big data cooperation and producer Wade's overall control, Lu Jian's situation was no longer "this person is not good", but "this people are good". As for Lin Fan and Zhang Qinyi, who seem to be not good, they have a special guest appearance as a supporting role to greet them, not showing off the film and television expression, only providing jokes and exposure.
The actors were excited when they heard about "smooth shooting".
These two simple words mean the courage and confidence in making.
The usual shooting process is to arrange the shooting based on scenes. For example, when a costume drama is released, the palace scene is included today. Then all the scenes in this scene must be filmed in this time. Whether it is the first episode or the 100th episode, this requires a high requirement for the quality of the actor. If the character he plays is still a soldier in the first episode and is already a general in the first episode, then he needs to complete the conversion instantly, in addition to makeup and costumes, it also includes but is not limited to expressions and languages and actions.
Excellent actors can do it, but many actors with relatively little experience and poor strength can only choose to treat them rigidly and interpret them in rote stereotyped manner. This also leads to a soldier who has used up 100 episodes to grow into a general, except for his makeup changing, he seems to be a zombie face.
Successful shooting can solve this problem to a considerable extent, but the cost is a higher budget. The crew has to book more scenes and hire a larger team. At the same time, each major actor must also shoot with the group throughout the whole process.
This kind of shooting is easier for young actors, and it is easier for old actors.
Although this means greater investment and has higher requirements for directors and producers, Wade does not reject this arrangement. Movies with growth-themed themes will hedge considerable risks and everyone can perform better.
The two partnered, and most of the characters had been finalized in one day. Wade did not provide any subjective opinions. He only asked some questions and test questions in the process, and provided his opinions to Lu Jian for reference. Just like his impression of Li Yunlong was different from the actual deviation, Wade could always resolve Lu Jian's subjective errors and pull the part he went off back to the right path. This is a model of producers.
But the most core problem still exists.
After seeing off the last actor who auditioned the show, Lu Jian took a deep breath after sitting down: "Or, let's contact Jie Yaren..."
Wade seemed to have thought about this possibility a long time ago, and scratched the cat who was sleeping heavily on the table and immediately replied: "I can't learn Chinese."
Lu Jian was stunned for a moment before he got around. Wade always thought about him earlier and deeper than him.
Indeed, it is feasible to find Jieyaren in terms of technology and financial resources. The difficulty lies in that he must learn Chinese and at least master the lines. Even if he is willing to study for this foreign film, time will not allow it.
If you give up learning Chinese and use empty mouth-chewing style instead, the risks will be far greater than the benefits. It is better to choose someone else.
Lu Jian looked at the alternative list again: "These are almost meaningful."
"Your character requirements are too complicated." Wade shook his head, "You must be upright, not too handsome, you must be toxic, strict, comedy and humorous, humorous, and gentle at critical moments, and there are too few people who are satisfied at the same time."
Of course, Lu Jian also knows this. The fuck is Stephen Zhou himself...
"You have a week left." Wade picked up the sleeping cat and stood up. "In a week, the matter I will be responsible for will be arranged, and you will take over."
"I know." Lu Jian stood up and stretched out his right hand, "You are so outstanding, I'm a little afraid that I'll mess it up."
"Your words are contradictory." Wade smiled, holding his hands, "I have chosen you. If you mess it up, it means I'm not good enough. If you firmly believe that I'm good, then you must be good too."
Unlike the first handshake, Wade finally had some human touch in his pulse, and the American shorthair cat in his arms seemed to show a smirk.
And why did Lu Jian himself give up? The casting on this day has proved the practical value of so-called big data. If he only regards it as a tool, he is no different from a calculator. Only abacus will hate it.
"Finally." Wade walked to the door with the cat in his arms, "If you can't think of the title of the movie, I will submit the project under the title of "Lady Battle."
"This name is too lol."
"Let's go straight to the content of the story, you can tell what it is. You're very young. Telling you it's comedy, interesting, and not disgusting." Wade shook his head and said, "What else do you want? Find another sentence from the Book of Songs, "Quiet Girl Qishu"?"
"Oh good."
"As a producer and investor, my indulgence is limited." Lu Wei hugged the cat and raised his hand, "I have decided to do this, do your own thing."
"You hate it, I'm not happy."
Bang the door.
