Chapter 273 Sad Yang Mi
Chapter 273 Sad Yang Mi
Seeing Hu Jun, who was a little depressed because of his failure in the audition, join the cast, he opened his beard and expressed comfort, but in his heart he was very happy that his "Dragon" crew could film as scheduled.
With the experience of the previous two Jin Yong dramas, he is still very confident about "Dragon" this time. He strives to strive for excellence in all aspects of this drama, including real-life shooting, effective acting, careful service, and thoughtful performances. The actors each have their own characteristics.
Especially in terms of actor selection, he felt that he did a good job. Not only Hu Jun, but also the bearded man was a little impulsive when he thought about Wu Yuchen calling Shu Chang and saying that he had chosen Shu Chang. It would be too unfair for her to play a Tianshan child grandmother.
Wang Yuyan? The bearded man shook his head. This role has been promised to Liu Qianqian. The little girl not only has the background, but also has a very suitable image and temperament. Otherwise, he would not give such an important role to others so easily. In fact, at first he wanted to cast Yan Danchen to play Wang Yuyan, but later someone came in and Liu Qianqian wanted to leave the role.
In fact, Shu Chang's age is very suitable for playing the smart and cute Zhong Ling, but if she is asked to play Zhong Ling, who should she choose for the role of Tianshan Child Mother? This role is not that easy to play. If you have acting skills, you are not of the right age. If you are young and have no acting skills, it is not easy to find a Shu Chang.
Big Beard made many choices, but still did not change Shu Chang's role. This role still has a lot of roles, and it will leave a deep impression on the audience if it is performed well. However, he thought that Shu Chang was in Wu Yuchen's movie, so he probably didn't lack his popularity, and he might be needed to help promote it.
Well, when the time comes, you can tell the story about how all the actors in your crew were attracted by Wu Yuchen and made him sad for publicity. The audience will definitely like to hear it!
The casting of the bearded man caused quite a stir. There was even an online vote for the role of Duan Yu. Lu Yi, Huang Haibing, and Ren Quan were all the top candidates online, and netizens were very noisy for this role. rise. This also made the bearded man smile proudly. This is his usual hype method.
In fact, he has already decided on the candidate, Qiao Zhenyu in F4, but he will not announce it to the public until the crew starts shooting. With F4's popularity on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, most people will be satisfied. Qiao Zhenyu's appearance and temperament are quite suitable for Duan Yu.
As for Lin Zhiying, who had taken the initiative to contact him, he had not considered it. Lin Zhiying became popular again after "Peerless Two Prouds". But the investor of his "Dragon Movie" is Miracle Pictures, so naturally they give priority to their actors. How can you, Lin Zhiying, compete with him? What's more, F4's appeal is no worse than yours, Lin Zhiying.
The big bearded man in "Dragon Movie" is still working hard to do all kinds of hype and publicity, and has already hyped Wang Yuyan to the head of a great actress, but Wu Yuchen has no such intention at all. At his current point, he has no idea. There is no need for any publicity and hype.
A large number of media gathered around his crew, wanting to get some news about "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas," but he basically ignored them. However, the reporters enjoyed it, recording and reporting on all the actors coming in and out, and even went to interview the audition experience.
At this time, Wu Yuchen was busy interviewing for another important role. Gong Li asked him about drama conflict and tension before. In fact, in this movie, the evil side that most intuitively reflects is not the protagonist's father, but the character of another young lieutenant. That is, the young officer who is liked by his sister. His existence also adds to the tension and conflict of the entire movie.
In the original movie, the setting is that of a German SS soldier who was particularly vicious to the Jews because his father fled to Switzerland. Naturally, the setting here is the Neon Man, a soldier full of neon militarism. While talking about the common prosperity of Greater East Asia, he also despises the Chinese as a fanatic of an inferior race.
There are several requirements for this role, including being young, handsome, and tough, and at the same time being able to show the ruthless and cruel side of the character.
Regarding this role, there were a lot of people who came to audition. All the male actors under the age of 30 who thought they met the requirements signed up. However, in the end, only a few people actually came to Wu Yuchen for the interview, Liu Ye, Chen Kun, Wu Yan Zu, Huang Xiaoming.
Liu Ye and Wu Yanzu both have advantages in appearance, and are relatively tall and tall. But the first person eliminated by Wu Yuchen was Liu Ye...
Although this guy is 186cm tall, in fact, his acting style and style since his debut have always been that of a melancholy young man and a silly kid. Whether it's "If Love Is God's Will", "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" or "Lan Yu", they all follow this line. The creation of such a vicious villain is really lacking.
Then he excluded Chen Kun, not because of his poor acting skills, but because like Wang Zhiwen, he was on the thin side. At the same time, his overall style was a bit feminine, and his temperament was somewhat different from what Wu Yuchen wanted. I feel that Chen Kun and Wang Zhiwen are suitable to play spies, but soldiers seem to be a little less interesting.
In the end, Wu Yuchen was making a choice between Wu Yanzu and Huang Xiaoming.
To be honest, Wu Yanzu's appearance conditions are not picky. His appearance, height, and body shape are all suitable for this role. Wu Yuchen does not doubt his acting skills...
But this time Huang Xiaoming gave him a really big surprise. It felt like this kid had finally figured it out. He performed very well in the audition to play the role of a neon officer. And because of the F4 training, this guy is now in great shape and has a tough temperament. He can hold up when he plays an officer.
This reminded Wu Yuchen of the role of Takeda, a Neon soldier, played by Huang Xiaoming in "The Sound of Wind" in his previous life. He also performed very well and it was one of his peak acting moments.
However, what really made Wu Yuchen make up his mind was Huang Xiaoming's fluent Neon language.
"Xiaoming, when did you learn to speak Japanese?"
Hearing Wu Yuchen's question, Huang Xiaoming immediately replied: "Director Wu, because F4 often goes to Neon for activities, the company hired a Japanese teacher for us two years ago. I learned a little more and didn't expect to use it this time!"
"Meteor Garden" itself was adapted from the Neon manga "Boys Over Flowers", so the TV series has a lot of influence there, and many fans and support clubs of F4 were born, so they would naturally interact frequently.
Wu Yuchen didn't expect that letting Huang Xiaoming debut in F4 would also add a lot of talents to him.
Then he asked jokingly: "If you play this role, many of your Japanese fans may lose fans."
Huang Xiaoming immediately expressed his opinion: "That's different! I can't forget history and pain because of my current celebrity status! Even if all my Japanese fans run away, I still want to play this role!"
Wu Yuchen smiled and nodded: "It's good that you have this awareness! Okay, you go back and prepare well, arrange your schedule, and you will follow the crew for the next two months."
Huang Xiaoming was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed to Wu Yuchen: "Thank you Director Wu, thank you Teacher Wu!"
Ever since he entered school, he wanted to act in Wu Yuchen's movie. Now that he has finally realized this wish, he finally feels that he has been recognized on the road of acting. How can he not be happy?
Wu Yuchen also smiled as he watched Huang Xiaoming leave. With Huang Xiaoming's finalization, basically all the important roles were also decided. In the end, he chose Chen Baoguo for the role of the father. He gave the actors 5 days, and the crew held a start-up ceremony five days later.
…
“It is revealed that the cast of Wu Yuchen’s new play has been confirmed! Gong Li and Chen Baoguo will star in it!”
Looking at Shu Chang’s name on the list in the newspaper, Yang Mi pouted her lips.
Yang Mi has had acting experience since she was a child, and she can be considered a child star, so she has always had a dream of becoming a star. She also signed up for the casting of “The Boy in the Striped Pajamas”, but she didn’t even make it through the audition, saying that she was over the age limit, which made Yang Mi a little depressed.
As a child star, she felt that she was no worse than Shu Chang. If she was two years younger, she might have been chosen!
What a pity, Yang Xiaomi was born two years earlier!
While sighing, Yang Mi looked at another piece of news, and suddenly felt like a bolt from the blue:
“Little superstar Xie Tingfeng announced his retirement from the entertainment industry!”
“Ah! My Feng brother!” Yang Mi couldn’t help but wail, Xie Tingfeng was her favorite star, and she was obsessed with him.
One thing we have to admit is that Xie Tingfeng's appearance at that time was really good, and the works specially created for him by Emperor Entertainment Group made him look cool in various ways. Therefore, he had many fans in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, and was promoted as the little king of Chinese pop music.
Many teenagers chase stars just because of their looks, especially girls. Put Jay Chou and Xie Tingfeng together, and basically everyone will choose Xie Tingfeng. The proportion of male fans of Jay Chou during this period was quite high.
Yang Mi is a brainless fan of Xie Tingfeng. Girls who chase stars are like this. They don't care if he has a car accident or finds someone to take the blame.
In fact, if Xie Tingfeng's car accident this time hit the guardrail and flowerbed on the side of the road, it would not be a big deal. At most, he would do some community service work. But Xie Tingfeng actually found Emperor Entertainment Group's driver to take the blame for him and confessed, and it was found out. This caused a storm in the city. People from all sides were angry at him. The little king who couldn't stand the pressure could only announce his withdrawal from the entertainment industry to calm the public anger.
The little king's withdrawal from the entertainment industry also attracted a lot of reports from the mainland, and many people went to interview Wang Fei, which attracted the public to eat melons.
In fact, this is just a normal operation in Hong Kong Island. When the limelight passes next year, Xie Tingfeng will make a comeback. But Yang Mi didn't know at this time. Seeing her idol leaving the entertainment industry, she was really heartbroken.
Just at this time, the phone at home rang.
"Mi Mi, someone is looking for you!"
Yang Mi looked like she was about to cry, walked over and picked up the phone and answered: "Hello..."
After listening to a few words, the girl's crying face just now showed a look of surprise: "Really? No problem, no problem, I'll go on time!"
Looking at his daughter jumping up and down after answering the phone, Yang's father couldn't help asking: "Mi Mi, what's the matter?"
"Dad, your daughter is going to be a big star!"
"What is she going to act in again?" Yang's father was not surprised that his daughter went out to film TV dramas. After all, she had acted a lot since she was a child.
Yang Mi waved her hands and raised her chin, saying, "No, no, this time I'm going to sign a contract with Miracle Films! It's the Miracle Films that filmed "The Blade of the Assassin", Wu Yuchen's company, and I'll be their contracted artist in the future!"
"Contract?" Yang's father was really surprised.
At this time, Yang's mother also asked, "Contracted artist? You don't go to school?"
"Yes! Signing a contract doesn't mean you can't go to school. You can film while you're at school! Let me tell you, Miracle Films is the most powerful company in China now. Many people want to get in but can't!" Yang Mi was so proud at this time, like a little fox with its tail raised.
However, what she said is not wrong. Today's Miracle Film and Television is undoubtedly the leading company in China's film and television industry. No one in the entertainment industry can match it. Huayi is simply not enough to watch in front of it.
Nowadays, actors and entertainers in the entertainment industry are all vying to join Miracle Film and Television. For related projects, whether they are movies or TV series, the competition among industry insiders is also very fierce.
Of course, this industry insider not only refers to actors, but also includes many people behind the scenes. Miracle Film and Television treats screenwriters, directors and producers within the company very generously, and has established a reasonable incentive system. Good works will reap rewards. There will not be any projects that make a lot of money, but the original creators will always be rewarded. The situation of not being able to get cents. This naturally sets a benchmark for the entire entertainment industry.
It is not only the original team dividend system, but also production cost and other requirements. For example, in film and television dramas, actors' remuneration should not exceed 40% of the total production cost, and the main actors' remuneration should not exceed 70% of the total remuneration of all actors.
This is naturally a system established by Wu Yuchen. He himself knows the importance of the creators behind the scenes. After ten years of development, the Chinese film and television industry will not be short of actors at all, but what it will be short of is actually good creators. The degree of care in other aspects such as persuasion also directly determines the quality of a work. In fact, the audience's perception of many works depends on the details.
Taking advantage of the fact that the current salary of actors is not very high, we have established this system and put the rules for dividing the cake on the bright side, which can be regarded as setting a standard for the Chinese entertainment industry that has just begun to develop.
Father Yang and Mother Yang looked at each other, but they were not as happy as Yang Mi appeared.
Mother Yang said: "You kid, why don't you discuss such a big matter with us? Are you going to stop talking without us asking?"
Her daughter has been very creative since she was a child, which makes the couple sometimes happy and sometimes worried.
"Oh, Mom! I'm telling you right now~" Yang Mi quickly started acting coquettishly towards her parents.
Afterwards, the family of three started a comprehensive discussion about Yang Mi’s signing...
