On the 12th, Shen Mengxi received a call and asked him to go to the Chang'an Club to talk in detail...

It was Brother Xun's agent Yu Guangguang who called...

Chang'an Club, the first lady Aunt Zhao invested in development, and the guests were all 'upper' class.

Shen Mengxi and Chen Liming together, they went to the airport to pick up people first, Amano Yoshitaka...

Wu Ershan and Xiao Jin will also go to the club together later.

"You say, it's been almost 50 years since the founding of New China, and there are actually aristocrats and upper classes?"

Chen Liming replied casually: "This is all advocated in the past two years, learn from the West..."

Shen Mengxi shook his head: "I think this is some aunts who are on the hook of so-called power people deliberately take the rhythm and let the Qing Dynasty call for raising the flag!"

"Raise the flag?"

"The maid in the room, I feel that my identity is different, I shout at the top of my voice, the identity of the old lady is different, now that there is the media, I will publicize it through the media... Talking about aristocracy in the republic, Jinnyema is sarcastic! You said that a Chinese obviously has a Zhou Li earlier than Europe to pretend to be forced, and he has to learn from the West, isn't this putting the cart before the horse!"

Chen Liming was a little annoyed: "Where did you get so many opinions?"

"I'm not happy!"

"What's so upset about you that it has something to do with you?"

Shen Mengxi: "... Look at what she said, she is very mentally handicapped! What 'three generations produce one nobleman', I think she wants to say, 'Three can produce one nobleman'!"

Chen Liming scolded him: "People are willing to be juniors, if I am a woman, I will also be a junior!"

Shen Mengxi was speechless...

In the past two years, most of the topics about the junior are very complicated.

It's not greasy, and the poems and the short man in the distance wrote in his blog "If I were a woman, I would be mixed like this!": kindergarten and elementary school are muddy;

junior high school teases boys;

Crazy kissing in high school, finding a stranger to give it for the first time in the third year of high school;

Freshman year to find a boyfriend and enjoy sports like crazy;

In the sophomore year, find an old man in his forties and fifties to be a junior, and learn life experience quickly. In the future, let the old lover help with the dowry and review the fiancé;

The bureau of the big three mixed all kinds of big names, big brothers, big brothers...

When he wrote this blog, it happened to be the release of "Dreams into Reality", and many people said that he was alluding to Xu Cainu...

"Let's talk about something else," Chen Liming interrupted Shen Mengxi and asked, "What if Li Lianhua agrees to star?"

"Let's just say that the game company is not optimistic about her, and thinks that she has no audience, and we have no choice but to look forward to the next cooperation..."

"So what if she asks a game company for verification?"

"You also underestimate the IQ of first-line actors, you say this, you mean to reject her... This is how everyone can say that they can get by on the face. ”

......

At three o'clock in the afternoon, we finally met.

Zhou Xun came with her brokerage team, her agent, Yu Guangguang...

A very good fool of the people...

Shen Mengxi introduced: "This is Mr. Yoshitaka Amano, we invited him to design the concept of the movie!"

"Mr. Yoshitaka Amano is a world-renowned master of character design and stage design, and we came to him to design character modeling for Xiao Wei, and he is also responsible for the overall concept of the original painting!"

"The concept of original transformation represents the early concept of the film, and will also guide the final style direction of the film, especially for the magic genre film, many scenes in the film are recreating and expanding the concept art of the original painting. For a film like "Painted Skin", which pursues the ancient Chinese monster culture as the core, draws on cultural elements from multiple regions, and creates a unique image style, accurate pre-art setting is particularly important..."

"We make movies with a philosophy: professional things are handed over to professional people, for example, I, I am only responsible for the concept of the story, control the production funds, and the specific shooting is in charge of Wu Ershan!"

Shen Mengxi said a lot, and Yu Guangguang spoke: "We are not interested in the fox demon story itself..."

Not interested, are you still coming?

"Zhou Xun himself doesn't want to play the fox demon anymore... However, Chinese films are now in a recession, such a large investment, if she doesn't act, others will probably not be able to bear the box office!"

"Yes, that's what we thought, so the first one to invite was Mr. Zhou..."

Yu Guangzhao looked at Zhou Xun, and then asked, "Can you tell me about other actors?"

"Chen Kun and Zhao Wei, the three of them are absolute starring..."

Zhou Xun suddenly spoke: "Can I take a look at the concept design of this character?"

"Of course..."

Wu Ershan handed over the notebook, and Shen Mengxi continued to talk to Yu Guangguang...

"I wonder who this movie is?"

"That must be Mr. Zhou, the whole story of "Painted Skin" revolves around the fox demon Xiao Wei played by Mr. Zhou..."

Over there, Zhou Xun was discussing character illustrations with Wu Ershan in a whisper, and her eyes lit up...

In the story of "Painted Skin", Xiao Wei is a demon full of charm and tragedy at the same time.

Yoshitaka Amano's painting style is very suitable for "Painted Skin", he pays great attention to the outline of lines, and most of the characters in his pen have slender eyebrows and eyes, small pupils, abstract shapes, like fairies and demons, full of ethereal and delicate beauty, which can combine the beauty of oriental classics with the beauty of western fantasy!

In order to accentuate the seductive feeling, the character's skin is left blank and the pale paper color reinforces the demonic aura, while the character's shape is simplified to a snake-like dynamic that highlights the delicate and soft waist of the character.

With just a few strokes, the mystery, charm, and danger of the characters are all on the page.

"I'm going to act!"

......

Zhou Xun said so, then there is no problem, all that remains is to ask her to call Chen Kun, and Chen Kun will call Zhao Wei again...

As for the battle for the position...

Shen Mengxi has been prepared for a long time, the first name at the beginning of the film is Zhou Xun, and the end of the film is Zhao Wei, poster design, put them together, separate the left and right, and put 'painted skin' in the middle...

No one is to be offended!

But there was still a problem, the three of them were not very optimistic about Wu Jing playing Pang Yong, and wanted to find a similar coffee position...

Also, Pang Yong's role is also considered the second male lead, and he has a lot of scenes.

In the original time and space, this character was originally Zhen Bullet, let's put it bluntly, the source of the idea of "Painted Skin" was the collision between Zhen Bullet and Director Ye Weixin!

Check the news now, and you can still find out: Zhen Bullet, Ye Weixin remake horror films, and the new "Painted Skin" plays kung fu: 'According to the filmmaker, the only confirmed actor is Zhen Bullet, but he plays the role of a monster hunter and continues to take the route of strong martial arts, while the weak scholar, the film party intends to invite Korean movie star Kwon Sang-woo. ’

Later, mainland investors intervened strongly and directly replaced Ye Weixin...

Ye Weixin was stimulated by this and played another IP with Donnie Yen - "Ip Man"!

Wu Jing in 2007, the coffee position is far inferior to Zhen Bullet, and he also plays the beaten one in various Hong Kong films.

Let him play this kind of blockbuster...

Damn, I don't have any foresight at all, the wolf warrior plays for you, and you still dislike it one by one!

Shen Mengxi was very unhappy: "Then who are they looking for? Li Lianjie? Can I find it?"

“... They recommended Huang Xiaoming!"

"Who?"
