Chapter 876 - Only the Male Protagonist (Ask for Subscription)

Genius 3 seconds to remember the website of this site [Pen Maze Pavilion.] "Ding Lu, why are you here?"

It was a little surprising to see Ding Lu and Lin Yang.

Ding Lu said: "I happened to be shooting a photo album nearby, which is quite close to your studio, so I came to see you by the way, Mr. Lin, how about not being depressed because "Crazy Boy" was banned." ”

Ding Lu smiled as always: "If you have a role that suits me, you must not forget me." ”

"How could it be? Blocking a movie makes me so depressed, am I such a cautious person?"

Lin Yang shook his head and smiled.

Since starring in the role of Jingjing in "Crazy Stone", he has conquered fans with his acting strength, Ding Lu has officially moved from an anchor to the entertainment industry, and has taken on many roles for more than a year, although it is not a big role, but Ding Lu's acting skills are increasing day by day.

Ding Lu, who was born as an Internet celebrity, already has a quirky personality, and it would be okay if Ding Lu really starred in Hu Nina.

Thinking of this, Lin Yang said, "But haven't you been playing lately?"

Ding Lu said with a smile: "I haven't had any dramas recently, except for taking a few photos and occasionally live broadcasting, you also know that some film and television dramas like me actually don't look down on me." ”

looked at Ding Lu and Dong Bin and said: "Lin Yang, don't say it, I think Hu Nina's image and personality are really suitable." “

Next, I asked Ding Lu to read the script, and I have to say that Ding Lu also likes this role, and after a brief trial of the play, I found that Ding Lu is also quite suitable.

So things were decided so happily!

Ding Lu officially agreed to serve as the second female played by Hu Nina.

After the role of Hu Nina was determined, except for An Jiahe and Mei Xiangnan, the cast of several songs in other TV series was basically determined.

Luo Junlai plays An Jiamu, Gou Dajun plays Ye Dou, Zhang Haoran plays Zheng Nan, Du Weiwei plays Liu Wei, and Ding Lu plays Hu Nina.

Seeing the assembled lineup, Lin Yang said: "Brother Gou, when you come back, you should quickly contact the four suitable candidates for the male protagonist and determine it as soon as possible, and at the same time, you can contact Mei You again to see if Mei You can give the role of Mei Xiangnan." “

Gou Dajun promised: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I'll contact you as soon as I get back." “

Looking at the confirmed actors, Dong Bin asked: "Lin Yang, the actors are basically confirmed, who are you going to use to direct this drama?"

Although Zhang Xing directed "Crazy Stone" and Zhao Yingjie directed "Those Years", about this domestic violence drama, in addition to the plot, the psychological description of the protagonist is very important, and it may be difficult to shoot it if it is not an experienced director in the industry.

Moreover, Lin Yang, who filmed this drama, also felt that Zhang Xing and Zhao Yingjie had no experience in this aspect, whether it was reality or among the directors, neither of them.

After thinking about it, Lin Yang felt that Gao Kong was good!

The drama "Conquest" can be said to be quite successful in filming, and when it comes to "Conquest", people will think of the boss, especially since this drama is still flourishing.

A good TV series, the script is one thing, and the acting skills of the actors are also one thing, but Lin Yang feels that it has a lot to do with the director's directing ability, not to mention anything else, look at Deng Chao in another time and space, the acting skills in Xingye's movies, the acting skills in Cao Baoping's movies, and then the acting skills in his own movies, you will feel that this is completely different.

Bad movies and good movies can be so freely retracted, and it is no wonder that many people think it is strange when they mention Deng Chao.

Thinking of this, Lin Yang said: "I think Gao Kong, who has directed "Conquest" in this drama, is quite suitable. I'll contact Gao Kong later, and Zhao Yingjie and Zhang Xing will assist Gao Jun in completing the shooting. ”

......

After discussing the general situation of the drama with Dong Bin and everyone in the studio, Lin Yang found Gao Kong with the script, and invited Gao Jun and Wang Baoguo to help Lin Yang.

Yanjing Hotel

As a director, Gao Kong has a very high status in both the TV and film and television circles.

Although he knew that Lin Yang was going to shoot a TV series about domestic violence, after reading Lin Yang's script, Gao Kong said again and again: "Lin Yang, I can't direct this drama, directing "Conquest" has already brought me a lot of controversy, if I direct such a TV series about domestic violence again, I will lose my life." ”

Wang Baoguo also said at this time: "Lin Yang, the contrast between your portrayal of the protagonist is too great, this An Jiahe has such a high social status and such a high education, you just want to portray him as a psychopathic abuser, can this audience accept it?"

Gao Jun looked at the script, nodded and agreed: "Yes, Lin Yang, I think that in such a domestic violence film, the protagonist can come from the countryside or the image of five big and three coarse, this An Jia and the image of an intellectual." It's a bit unreasonable that you've portrayed him so badly. ”

After reading the script, Gao Kong, Wang Baoguo and Gao Jun all had a relatively big controversy over the image of the protagonist An Jiahe portrayed by Lin Yang.

Listening to everyone's controversy, Lin Yang said: "Although such a protagonist is a little unacceptable to everyone, this is the fact, in fact, the perpetrators of domestic violence are not only in remote mountain villages with low education level, but also among those intellectuals with high education and high social status." “

"But other TV dramas have never been portrayed like this, and it's easy to take risks, not to mention anything else, the current doctor-patient relationship is already tense, and when you make this drama like this, I think it's very likely that some doctors will be disgusted. ”

Gao Kong shook his head slightly and said: "It's not that there has been such a situation before, the authority of TV dramas has become lower and lower over the years, and they will be reported at every turn, in fact, the so-called anti-Japanese thunder dramas, or the bloody dramas of the little three, sometimes it's because of helplessness." ”

This remark made Gao Jun and Wang Baoguo also think so.

Nowadays, the permission to shoot TV series is getting lower and lower, and in the end, it is found that it is impossible to release a TV series after hard work.

It is based on this that many film and television companies are naturally more and more afraid to take risks.

In this regard, Lin Yang also agreed, but he still said: "Anyway, in reality, sometimes there may be a devil hidden under the bright appearance, and it is easy to associate domestic violence with some remote mountainous areas in our traditional thinking, in fact, this is our misunderstanding, so portraying an An Jia and such an image is easier to arouse everyone's discussion and reflection, and I think this drama still has a little more social responsibility in it." ”

This is also the reason why Lin Yang wants to convince Gao Kong, and now Gao Kong can't be regarded as fame and fortune, so Lin Yang smiled: "Director Gao, this drama is just to give everyone a reflection and a point of discussion, and at the same time, we can also pay more attention to domestic violence, didn't you also run for social problems back then!"

At the earliest, Gao Kong also shot some of the most realistic documentaries about all walks of life, recording migrant workers working under the sunset and farmers lying on hospital beds but unable to pay for medicine.

But later, in order to live, Gao Kong also began to create commercial films and began to cater to more people, and when Lin Yang mentioned social responsibility, it really touched Gao Kong's original plan.

At the same time, Gao Kong also understands that the controversy brought about by "Conquest" and "Don't Talk to Strangers" is completely different, and the controversy of "Conquest" is to portray the underworld forces as flesh and blood, so as to attract everyone's dissatisfaction.

"Don't Talk to Strangers" is more about revealing a group of victims of domestic violence. It is more of a sense of social responsibility. Call on this group to be brave and face this domestic violence. This coincides with my original intention as a director.

Gao Kong here in Xiangwu said: "Lin Yang, I took this drama, the deaf are not afraid of thunder, I will direct it." ”

......

After successfully convincing Gao Kong to direct the TV series, Lin Yang received a reply from Gou Dajun.

Gou Dajun said: "Mr. Lin, I have talked to their agent. At first, the conversation was good, and their economists were looking forward to their cooperation with Lin Yang's studio. But when I saw the script, they all refused, and I contacted them one by one, and they all said that the schedule was too full, and if there was a chance next time, they would definitely cooperate with us. ”

Listening to Gou Dajun's words, Lin Yang asked, "Brother Gou, have you contacted any of the four of them, and who has refused?" ”

Gou Dajun said at this time: "Su Liwei, Wu Gang, and Zhang Xiaogang have all rejected An Jiahe's role, and Hu Li hasn't replied yet?"

Lin Yang asked: "Brother Gou, is it because we don't give the price enough that they refuse, you can let them talk casually about the price." ”

Listening to Lin Yang's words, Gou Dajun smiled bitterly: "No, it's not because of the price. They all talked about it well at the beginning, and the intention to cooperate was quite big, and the rejection was all when they saw a character like An Jia and in the script. ”

"Because the script refused. ”

Lin Yang thought at this time, although Su Liwei, Wu Gang and Zhang Xiaogang are all powerful factions, they can also be regarded as powerful idols. Many of their fans are fans who like them because of their looks. If it is because of the rejection of the script, they estimate that the contrast between An Jia and this character is too great, and they are afraid that playing such a character as An Jia and others will ruin the good image among fans.

Lin Yang also understands this!

After all, character design is very important!

Thinking of this, Lin Yang said: "What about Hu Li? What is Hu Li's attitude?"

Gou Dajun said at this time: "Hu Li hasn't replied yet, but I think it's enough, Hu Li is the only idol strength actor who kills both men and women." How many people have to have a psychological shadow with this An Jia and such an image!"

After receiving Lin Yang's invitation, Hu Li was naturally looking forward to cooperating with Lin Yang, Hu Li's impression on everyone has always stayed in martial arts dramas, although the acting skills are not controversial, but the single martial arts image also makes Hu Li have some desire to change.

But when he saw the script of "Don't Talk to Strangers", Hu Li's heart was still a little resistant, An Jiahe's image was simply regretful! Although he was looking forward to cooperating with Lin Yang, Hu Li still chose to refuse An Jiahe's image.

After receiving Hu Li's clear reply, the four front-line candidates identified rejected Lin Yang.

"What about Mei You? What does Mei You say?"

Gou Dajun said: "Mr. Lin, I think Mei You has a lot of hope, but Mei You's agent asks for a bit of a high price. ”

"How much does it cost?"

"A single episode of 500,000. ”

For a first-line actor like Mei You, 500,000 yuan for a single episode is a bit high, so Lin Yang said: "She Mei You is not a traffic flower, the price of a single episode has always been between 200,000 and 300,000, do you want so many lions to open their mouths? ”

Sure enough, in the end, Mei You agreed!, and now only An Jiahe is left!

An Jiahe is the soul of the entire TV series, the reason why Lin Yang asked for first-line actors is to determine his acting skills, but now it seems that such a contrasting character even Hu Li, who has the best temper in the entertainment industry, refused, and others probably won't consider it.

At the same time, Lin Yang also began to have difficulties in choosing such a person, should he be found to play the role?

Lin Yang found Gao Kong and Zhao Yingjie, and then looked through the actor's information about the casting, hoping to find the most suitable candidate to play An Jiahe.

Looking at the many voters, unable to find a suitable candidate, Zhao Yingjie said: "Lin Yang, if you want me to say that you should simply call Feng Hua to play the role of An Jiahe, I seem to have heard Feng Hua complain that this new drama does not have his role two days ago?"

After signing with Lin Yang Studio, in addition to playing the international thief Mike, Feng Hua is basically in a state of idleness. However, for An Jiahe's image, Lin Yang naturally knows that Feng Hua will never be able to take it, which requires an old actor with very strength to play it.

But since Feng Hua wants to come out to play the role. Lin Yang said: "Give the role of Captain Feng to Feng Hua!"

Hearing that Feng Hua played Captain Feng, Zhao Yingjie said: "No, Lin Yang, he played the international thief Mike in "Crazy Stone", and this is another policeman with a sense of justice, this image contrast is too great." “

"Brother Zhao, such a contrasting image can just exercise his acting skills, you go back and tell Feng Hua, don't let him be at home, let him study the role of Captain Feng. “

After solving Feng Hua's matter, Lin Yang made another mistake for Fa Jiahe's candidate, and at the same time, Gao Kong called and recommended a candidate.
