Director Zhang's opinion is reasonable, choosing a student in school is indeed in line with the role in the book, and it looks more realistic.

But I also want to say one thing, that is, the reason why celebrities are stars is not only because of their acting skills, but also because their market appeal should not be underestimated.

Of course, "Youth Trilogy" is famous enough, and it doesn't need celebrities to support the scene anymore.

But it's not bad to use the right stars and have the icing on the cake.

A big production with an investment of 300 million, if the actors are all unknown, it can't be said to be honest. ”

Director Baogang said carefully, but the people present still heard what he meant, and they still wanted to use stars.

"Oh, so does Director Baogang have any suitable candidates for the actor?" Dong Xiaoxue asked with a smile.

For Dong Xiaoxue, whether it is a student or a star, there is not much difference, and the company is not short of the money that invites celebrities.

The crux of the matter is whether this candidate can bring the character in the book to life!

Or can it be recognized by "cousins and cousins"!

"I recommend two actors, Lu Yi and Chen Kun! The two of them, I feel that they are more in line with the character of the male protagonist in the book. Director Baogang didn't twist either, and said briskly.

It turned out to be these two people, and they were also the top domestic actors at that time.

Especially Lu Yi, who can be said to be in full swing, known as the number one idol actor in China!

In 2003, the TV series "Male Talent and Female Appearance" starring Lu Yi won the first place in the ratings of the same period, and this drama was also a precedent for domestic "fashion idol dramas" at that time.

And Lu Yi has become the prince charming in the minds of countless people.

At that time, if you pulled a random passer-by on the street and asked her who was the most handsome male star.

Basically, more than ninety percent will blurt out, "Lu Yi"!

Even, when people were praised for being handsome, they would say, "You look like Lu Yi......

As for Chen Kun, he is also an idol student who has emerged in recent years, and his appearance is also extremely handsome.

The two actors have a lot in common.

The first thing in common is that they all began to emerge in the dramas filmed by director Bao Gang.

In 98, Lu Yi starred in "Never Look Away" directed by director Bao Gang, in which he played the role of the sunny and handsome law university zodiac boy who was willing to be an undercover agent for anti-drug work, the play premiered in March of the following year, and he won the audience's favorite actor at the first China Golden Eagle TV Art Festival and the best actor at the 18th China TV Golden Eagle Awards.

In 2000, Chen Kun, a fourth-year university student, starred in the TV series "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind" directed by Bao Gang.

The second common denominator is that last year, that is, in 2003, the domestic TV drama industry belonged to the two of them.

Lu Yi starred in "Talented Men and Women", and Chen Kun starred in "The Family of Gold Powder", both of which were big hits!

…………

"Director Baogang's recommendation of these two candidates seems to be good. Dong Xiaoxue said thoughtfully.

In fact, she also tends to choose stars, if she chooses an ordinary student to play the role of Yu Wenfei, Dong Xiaoxue feels more risky.

Because from the second book, Yu Wenfei's experience in the book will be more complicated, and he is no longer a simple student.

Can those students in school handle such a character?

"If I had to pick a star, I would have a better candidate. It's just that this person, we don't necessarily have to move. Director Zhang also said with a smile.

Although his suggestion was opposed by Director Bao Gang, he was not angry, because the two actors recommended by Director Bao Gang felt very good.

The reason why he said at the beginning that he wanted to use school students was purely because of personal habits, and if the conditions were right, he was not opposed to using celebrities.

Hearing Director Zhang say this, Dong Xiaoxue became interested all of a sudden, is there a better candidate?

And it may not be able to be moved?

What a big star this is!

Is it at the level of an Oscar?

However, among the Chinese, the coffee seat is big enough and suitable for playing the role of Yu Wenfei, Dong Xiaoxue can't think of anyone for a while.

Fa Ge Xingxing, they have a big coffee position, and it is difficult to invite, but they are not suitable for this role.

"What is the name of the actor in this drama? I'm talking about him, isn't it hard to invite, haha......" Director Zhang smiled heartily.

Director Dong Xiaoxue and Director Baogang suddenly realized that Director Zhang was talking about Yu Wenfei!

Of course, this "Yuwen Fei" refers to the real Mr. Fei!

He is indeed a star, although he does not mix in the entertainment industry, he is more well-known and dazzling than the big stars in the entertainment industry!

If you want to invite Mr. Fei to act, of course it is very, very difficult!

The two couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

"This ...... Fei is so busy, I guess I don't have much time to film. But I can try to ask him, in case he wants to, but don't hope too much.

The actor said so, three plans, the best is that Fei is always willing to come, but the possibility is extremely low. The second is Lu Yi and Chen Kun, and the last is the audition of the leading actor for the students. I consulted Mr. Fei for his opinion before deciding.

So what about the heroine, do the two directors have any good candidates to recommend. ”

Dong Xiaoxue finally clapped and said.

The two directors have no opinion, such an important role as the male lead, of course, it is the funder and the author of the original work who has the most right to speak, and the two directors only have the right to suggest and not decide.

"Heroine, I also watched "Youth Trilogy" in the past two days, and the heroine in the book does not have as many scenes as the male protagonist, and the acting skills required are not high, so I still recommend choosing from among the students. Director Zhang said dryly.

He does like to use new actors, old habits.

This time, Director Baogang did not object, nodded in agreement: "Well, Director Zhang is right, and it is difficult to find a female star of that age." It's better to choose from the students, and the temperament is more in line with the simplicity and kindness of the heroine in the book. ”

Dong Xiaoxue had an idea, she clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Is this good, let's have a heroine audition, and choose the heroine in the high schools and universities in the two big cities of the capital and the magic capital." In doing so, it can also help build momentum for our new drama and increase its popularity. ”

The two directors naturally will not object, the audition or something is nothing more than a lively picture, and there is no need for the two of them to come forward to work.

It's the people who make it to the finals in the end, and they just need the two of them to interview and make a decision.

The matter is decided, and as for the other supporting roles in the play, it will be left to the two directors to discuss and decide.

…………

"Don't make a fuss! I don't have time to film, this trilogy is estimated to take a year to film, and you don't know how busy I am. ”

After listening to Dong Xiaoxue's male lead selection plan, Yu Wenfei shook his head again and again.

If he just shows his face in the play and makes a cameo role, then he probably can still be a little interested.

But when you are the male protagonist and go to shoot dozens of episodes of TV series, isn't it a joke!

Dong Xiaoxue didn't have any hope, but now it's not surprising to hear Yu Wenfei say this.

She smiled and said: "Didn't we think you were the most suitable, the male protagonist in this book, Mr. Fei, you just wrote it according to yourself, it's too similar." If you come to star, the effect will be absolutely explosive!"

That's right, when Yu Wenfei wrote the book, the male protagonist in the book did write it according to himself, of course, it was appropriately beautified......

Since Yu Wenfei didn't want to waste time acting, he could only choose from the remaining two options.

"Mr. Fei, do you think these two actors are suitable for this role, or do you have other more suitable candidates?" Dong Xiaoxue asked again.

Yu Wenfei thought about it and said directly: "Just Lu Yi, it is more suitable for him to play the male lead." As for Chen Kun, it is also possible to play the second male lead. The images of the two of them just fit the male number one and male number two in the book. ”

For Lu Yi, Yu Wenfei's impression is relatively good.

The image is relatively sunny and healthy, especially the relationship between him and his wife, which is even more praiseworthy.

It's a good man who cares about his family.

Moreover, Lu Yi is still a native of the magic capital, and the magic capital is the base camp of the face spectrum system, so it is more appropriate to choose a local actor.

"Okay, I'll send someone to talk to the two of them. So what about the heroine, what advice does Mr. Fei have?" Dong Xiaoxue asked again.

"Just follow your ideas, hold an audition, and help our drama warm up in advance. The scope doesn't need to be too big, and the time should not be too long, just the two cities in the capital of the magic capital, oh, the age must be over sixteen years old, too small and not in line with the character of Xiao Ran in the book. Yu Wenfei said.

That's it.

…………

"Lu Yi, let me tell you good news! You were appointed by Mr. Fei to be the male protagonist of the youth trilogy, how about it, the schedule is no problem. Of course, if there is a problem, I also suggest that you immediately push off the other crew and agree immediately. You must know that we have invested 300 million yuan in this drama, and with the readership of this book, it will definitely be phenomenal after it is filmed!"

Director Baogang personally made a phone call to Lu Yi, which can be regarded as the actor he brought to his debut, and the two have a very good relationship in private.

"What? The crew of "Youth Trilogy" invited me to be the male lead? Or did Mr. Fei personally name me! That's great! Director Zhao, I can finally film under you again, you have to take care of it more. I have absolutely no problem with my schedule, I was talking about a TV series, but now I naturally don't need to talk about it anymore. ”

Lu Yi's reaction was not what Director Baogang expected, and he agreed in surprise.

Now in the entertainment industry, all actors who are a bit of a coffee are paying attention to this pioneering work of Facebook Film and Television Media!

The first film director in China joins hands with the first TV series director, and the two co-direct!

In recent years, there is no doubt that the book market sales chart has dominated the list!

A super hit book with a readership base of over 100 million!

The amount of investment in shooting is 300 million!

With the blessing of the total halo of Fei, the main promotion of Facebook publicity!

Any one of them is blushing, not to mention that these conditions are all gathered together.

Not to mention the male lead No. 1, even if you go to a supporting role, those first-line actors are all dreamed of.
