Monday, April 5th.

Fumimakuno came to the studio early in the morning, as the executive director of "I Am Legend", and at the same time the only one who was free, today's audition was enough for him to be busy.

Not only for Li Qian, but also for Su Lun and Guo Fan.

I took my things and came to an ordinary hotel nearby, and there were a lot of auditions today, so I arranged it in the hotel.

When I arrived at the scene, I found that there were already two groups of people waiting.

"Mr. Cai, Mr. Chang, came so early?"

Wen Muye smiled, and Cai Yinong, who was a candy man, said hello to Chang Jihong of Hai Run.

looked at the few actors next to them, took out a few A4 sheets of paper from their bags and handed them over, which were all some information about the roles they were going to audition for.

In the entertainment industry, these two people are also famous, a well-known big agent, and the CEO of a well-known domestic TV drama production company, which can also be regarded as industry bosses. This time, I also accompanied the actor to audition.

However, in the face of Wen Muye, a little-known executive director, the two of them did not have the shelf of a big man at all, and quickly got up and took a few pieces of A4 paper from Wen Muye.

As the saying goes, the king of Hades is easy to provoke, and the little ghosts are difficult, such a simple truth, how can they not understand it if they have been in the industry for many years.

What's more, although this Wen Muye is unknown, just because he is the assistant director of Li Qian's last movie "Perfect World" and the executive director of Li Qian's new film, the two of them dare not slack off.

Look at Xu Zheng and Su Lun, maybe the little ghost will become the king of Hades.

"I'm sorry for the director. ”

"You're welcome, those guys just wait first, Li Dao and they will come in a while. ”

Nodding, Wen Muye didn't say anything to them.

Even if these two people have a certain status in the circle, he himself is a small executive, the other party's attitude is still very enthusiastic, and Wen Mu's ambition does not have the slightest wave.

In fact, as Li Qian's assistant director, Wen Muye has also received calls from several companies in the past few months, and some even have ready-made film projects, as long as he wants, he can take over immediately.

But he's not stupid, the audience who cares about who you are, they only believe in the film produced by Li Qian.

No matter how many people want to give Li Qian as a deputy, they don't have this opportunity, and some of the concepts that Li Qian has taught him by words and deeds in the past half a year have also benefited him a lot, which is something that he couldn't learn in the four years of college and the year of the film academy seminar.

Besides, the opportunity to direct independently, Bunmuno is not worried at all.

Xu Zheng and Su Lun gave Li Qian an execution, and then made a film independently.

But even if he was given this opportunity, Wen Muye didn't want to make his own film so soon.

The crew of "Perfect World", the main person in charge of the crew is Xu Zheng, and Wen Muye also does some chores, and this time the crew of "I Am a Legend" is the first time he is fully responsible for a crew.

There's a lot more to learn.

.......

It's still early, and no one has come in for a few minutes, so Wen Muye is busy with his own business.

Go and sit down on a couch at the door, tidy up your things, record the actors who are present, and audition for their respective roles, in order.

I sent a message to BaseFX asking about the concept art and the production of the 3D stereo of the zombies.

I looked at the message sent by the art director again, and I had already set up a studio in Huairou with the set team and a large number of workers.

All aspects are busy with Wen Muye, except for Li Qian's contact with the government of the Demon Capital, basically most of the work in the early stage was done by him at Li Qian's orders.

......

Cai Yinong and Chang Jihong saw that Wen Muye kept moving in his hands, and they didn't seem to be busy, so they didn't go to talk.

Sometimes it's better to do nothing than to do it wrong.

Idle and bored, the actors under him were hurrying to look at the few hundred words in their hands, and the two were chatting with each other.

"Mr. Cai, I heard that Tong Liya has a cameo in your new drama "Strange Man Yizhimei"?" Chang Jihong looked at Hu Ge and Master Liu, who were discussing something next to him, and asked with a smile.

Sugar Man is a TV drama production company, and this time the two male and female actors supported by Cai Yinong actually entered the final audition, and Chang Jihong also noticed that the two of them auditioned for the male and female protagonists of Su Lun's new film.

"Yes, we talked about it at the beginning of last year, and we had some cooperation, so we came to make a cameo. Cai Yinong also smiled.

I don't know, I thought I had a cooperation with Li Qian, but I just caught up with Jiangning TV.

In fact, even Cai Yinong doubted that Tong Liya helped him to let Hu Ge and Liu Shishi enter the final audition.

But they don't know each other at all, and that's weird.

But this is a good thing, Cai Yinong didn't think about it, and instead gossiped, "Mr. Chang's contract with Hai Yan seems to have expired, do you have any plans for the next step?"

This kind of thing, Chang Jihong will definitely not talk to outsiders, so he will deal with it haha.

Chatting and chatting, a quarter of an hour later, someone came in again.

It was Li Xiaowan, who came in with Chen Kun and his newcomers, Li Qing, who played Xue Baochai in "New Red Mansion".

was somewhat unexpected, except for "Dream of New Red Mansions", let alone movies, Li Qing had never even filmed a TV series, and even came to the final audition.

When someone came, Wen Muno wrote it down, sent a message over, and asked them to sit and wait by themselves.

They were all in a circle, acquaintances, Li Xiaowan saw that they came first, and also came over to inquire about some news.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Xiaoli came with her daughter Liu Yufei, as undoubtedly the most famous actress of the younger generation, Liu Yufei's arrival made Cai Yinong and Li Xiaowan a little nervous.

came several times in succession, and the actresses were basically in their twenties, combined with the script given to them, it was obvious that the heroine of a film wanted to be of this age.

And Cai Yinong didn't hack Liu Yufei, just to support his own Master Liu, this enemy met and looked at Liu Xiaoli coldly.

But that's it, nothing will happen on this occasion.

Not long after, Yang Mi, one of the new generation of four little flowers who had signed a contract with Meiya Entertainment, also came, and came with her agent Zeng Jia.

When I saw my old club Li Xiaowan, I was a little embarrassed.

After walking for a week, the newcomer who was strongly praised finally became popular and ran away again, Li Xiaowan wanted to say that he had no idea in his heart, it was impossible.

However, there is nothing wrong with leaving when the contract expires, and this is another occasion for auditions.

In the entertainment industry, there are a lot of grievances and grievances.

For a while, the atmosphere of the scene changed a little.

Even if he didn't have a woman's sixth sense, Wen Muno felt it, and suddenly it was a little different.

glanced back at them.

Are you alright?

But halfway through the crowd, the phone number that Wen Muye should have made was also called, and the messages and emails that should have been sent were also sent, so he stopped what he was doing and began to look at the actors who were present.

Although it was not for him to audition, at least he had a general impression of these people, and he could also give Li Qian and them a reference when the time came.

Wen Muno stared at them blatantly like this, staring at the information in his hand while staring, regardless of men and women.

If you change to a Mediterranean greasy man, I'm afraid it will be easy to misunderstand.

As the minutes passed, actors came one after another, and the banquet hall of this hotel was almost full.

Three movies, three male leads, one female lead, and a number of supporting roles, even if it comes to the last round of auditions, there are a lot of people.

Immediately afterwards, Deng Chao also arrived, followed by five or six Huayang actors, who were mighty and quite imposing.

The related household is coming.

The agents and actors present were all looking at Deng Chao and several actors behind him, comparing them with their own actors.

Wen Muye also got up from the chair, said hello to Deng Chao, also handed over a few pieces of paper, pointed to the sofa next to him and said with a smile, "Let's sit down first, just finished the call, Director Li and they are coming soon, you are late, wait for the start later." ”

"Thank you, Lao Wen. ”

Deng Chao thanked him, asked the others to find a place to sit, and chatted with Wen Muye.

The two of them have also met and met, and they are Li Qian's fellow countrymen, and they are sophisticated in human feelings, even if Wen Muye is still young, he will not understand.

However, what should be said and what should not be said, Bunmuno is still clear.

It's just that in the eyes of other people, I see that they are quite familiar with each other, but I don't think so.

There's nothing strange about it, it's a humane society.

.......

At nine o'clock in the morning, the audition time came, Li Qiancai, Guo Fan, and Su Lun were late, followed by several crew creators.

"Boss. Bunmakuno immediately greeted him.

Everyone's eyes also looked at Li Qian.

Glancing at the actors on the scene, Li Qian asked, "Everyone has arrived?"

"It's all there, ready to go. ”

Wen Muye said and handed over the form he had sorted out, basically according to the principle of first-come, first-served audition, the earliest ones came for two hours, and the preparation time was enough.

"How is the crew doing?" Li Qian asked again.

"I asked all in the morning and everything was fine. "Bunmakno Road.

"Let's get started. ”

Li Qian nodded, took Su Lun and Guo Fan out again, and led people into a room.

Do your own thing.

In fact, these three movies don't have too many characters, mainly the protagonists, that is, Guo Fan's "Time Planning Bureau" has a bank president villain and a policeman who pursues them.

"I Am Legend" is even simpler, Li Qian auditioned for only one role, that is, the male lead.

The heroine is not important, and the zombies only need to find an actor who is a zombie boss, and other zombies can do it.

That's right, zombies are still played by real people, and CG production is much higher than that of real people, both in terms of time and technical cost.

Real people plus post-production, enough.

The first one to come was Liu Ye, who was also the first to arrive.

is also an acquaintance, he has auditioned for "Frequency of Life and Death" and "Moon", and this is the third time.

"Brother Ye sit down. Li Qian pointed to the sofa and smiled.

？？

Don't you have to audition?

Liu Ye was a little confused, but he still sat down opposite and met the constant scrutiny of Li Qian and photographer Zhang Zhonghua.

was stared at for more than a minute, and the lines didn't need to be said or performed.

Being stared at his face by two big men like this, Liu Ye felt a little hairy in his heart.

However, after watching for more than a minute, Li Qian and Zhang Zhonghua glanced at each other and nodded.

"That's it, Brother Ye, you go outside and wait first, and we'll let you know after the audition. ”

Liu Ye was puzzled, why didn't he find Li Qian so strange in the first two auditions.

However, it is normal for the director to have quirks, and Liu Ye went out to wait.

......

"Lao Zhang, then Liu Ye?"

"I've looked at other actors, and there is no more suitable than him, to be honest, many people in the industry have always felt that he is the best one for this generation of actors. Zhang Zhonghua casually flipped through the pair of materials in front of him and said.

And it just so happens that in the past two years, he has been transforming into a tough guy, neutralizing the original literary style, and not completely becoming a tough guy type actor, which is very suitable. ”

"That's right, if you hadn't transformed, you wouldn't have come to him. Li Qian nodded.

In fact, for this role, Li Qian's first consideration was Liu Ye.

This time it's just a look, in terms of appearance, especially the eyes.

In the past few years, the best feminine students in China have undergone a lot of transformation in the past two years, but they are more in line with Li Qian's requirements.

The male protagonist of "I Am Legend", first of all, there are a lot of action scenes, after all, you have to fight against zombies.

And the most important point, it is not an exaggeration to say that mankind is facing a desperate situation and is about to perish, but in this context, it is necessary to give the audience hope.

Apocalyptic movies, the core point, hope!

The male protagonist must have a cheerful personality and exude positivity from the inside out.

Similarly, Chen Kun, the representative of the gloomy Xiaosheng who was as famous as Liu Ye back then, was not very suitable, his figure was a problem, his kind of femininity was also different from Liu Ye, Liu Ye's eyes were pure, and it was these eyes that were favored by the industry back then.

Cheerful and optimistic is one thing, but at the same time there is a lonely side, after all, the whole city is alone, and I don't know if there is anyone in other places, maybe there is no one in the whole world.

This is also what he is good at, feminine and feminine.

Then no problem.

Originally, Li Qian was still worried, after all, there were several film and television dramas in his memory, and the image could change too much.

Liu Ye got married last year and took a French wife, it seems that she is pregnant and about to give birth, I don't know if she has changed as a father.

Most ordinary people will change a lot after they get married and have children, and actors are also people, even if they are well controlled, it is inevitable, especially the change in mentality.

It's basically decided, and the next audition will come normally, one person will perform for a while, and then go out and wait for news.

auditioned for five actors, adding up to about forty minutes, and when it was over, Li Qian discussed the storyboard with Zhang Zhonghua in the room.

As for an actor, most of the time he also leaves the country alone, it seems that filming is simple, but the simplest is often the most troublesome.

is a person, there are not many lines, not even a rival scene, how to express what the camera needs to express, how to catch people, is a difficult problem.

"Sniper Phone Booth" has a sniper, and "Moon" has a clone companion and robot.

"I Am Legend" is really alone, and it is difficult to communicate with zombies.

The discussion lasted until noon, and four hours passed, Guo Fan and Su Lun also ended their auditions, and when they came to Li Qian's side, they basically had ideas about the candidates for each role.

"Boss, do you think this Liu Yufei and Master Liu are a little similar, if one of them plays the female number one, can the other play the mother. ”

didn't talk about the male protagonist, Guo Fan said excitedly about the heroine, "But Master Liu looks like that dignified and demure feeling, and Liu Yufei is the shadow of Wang Yuyan and Xiaolongnu, so she feels a little less."

There is also a Li Qing of Long Xinda, who has a good cold temperament, and is younger, only 20 years old, and the feeling of not knowing the world will be better. ”

Speaking of which, Guo Fan himself has not yet made it clear who to choose.

Immediately after that, he pulled out the information of an actress.

"There is also an actress in the same group as Huayang Media and Deng Chao, who is also quite 23 years younger. ”

Looking at the slightly limited and rounded face in the photo, Li Qian interrupted Guo Fan's words.

"No, that's a bit of a contrast. ”

"I didn't mean that, I meant to add a role, it wasn't originally a daughter, mother, and grandma at the same time, plus great-grandmother, anyway, they only appeared for about ten seconds, this girl looks smaller, not tall and round, let her play that great-grandmother, the contrast of time will be stronger, and the other three will play daughter, mother, and grandmother. ”

"You..."

Li Qian was speechless for a while, this Guo Fan was too spoofed.

In the plot, the villain introduces his family to the male protagonist, and his appearance remains that his daughter, wife and mother walk hand in arm, so that the male protagonist can't guess.

It doesn't have much to do with the plot, the main thing is to set off the insignificance of the protagonist.

Originally, the protagonist was given hundreds of years, and suddenly it seemed to be very awesome, but it turned out that the ancestors of the family were still alive for several generations, and they didn't know how many years they lived, and a gamble was thousands of years.

Of course, it also has the meaning of fun.

However, to be honest, the picture described by Guo Fan is estimated to be a group of people laughing in the cinema.

Li Qian shook his head, "You are the director, you have the final say, I don't care, what about the other roles, if you are sure, then settle it." ”
