Chapter 141 Zhang Yimou's Casting Habits [Ask for Collection]
PS: Slightly tweaked the plot.
--------- the following text---------
Caught a plane overnight and arrived in the capital, at this time, Ye Ming got off the plane and found that he had a lot of missed calls on his mobile phone, all of which were from Chen Xi, what was it for?
Even if Ye Ming didn't connect, it was very clear. The people from Chen Fusheng Jewelry Company must have told the Chen family the news, and Chen Xi naturally got the news.
Sure enough, Ye Ming called, Chen Xi first asked where Ye Ming was now, and when Ye Ming said that he was going to shoot a movie like Zhang Yimou's "My Father and Mother", it immediately attracted Chen Xi's envy.
Later, I suddenly remembered and said, "Do you want to use jade for filming?" I heard from my family, or I'll send it to you, what do you want?" ”
Ye Ming said with a smile: "Don't worry, the problem has been solved, the movie has been filmed, when it will be released, I will call you, don't worry." Guaranteed to give you an unexpected surprise. ”
Ye Ming didn't go back to Brilliant Film and Television at all, and went directly to the new flower noodle company, at this time, Zhang Weiping was just about to get in the car, and when he saw Ye Ming coming over, he greeted and said: "Ye Ming, I was about to call you, but it happened that you came over, I heard that you made a movie by yourself, how are you busy." ”
Ye Ming naturally understood what Zhang Weiping meant by ridiculing, and he didn't care about it at the moment, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang said that he laughed, I have support funds, I'm sorry for the country if I don't shoot, right, Mr. Zhang, my father and mother's movie, it seems that there are more scenes in winter, why is it going to start now." ”
Zhang Weiping beckoned Ye Ming to get in the car, and said: "Actually, there is nothing [no one can be less] The response is quite good, just right, now there is time, Director Zhang means to set up the team first, he is a person who makes movies very carefully, get ready, when the time comes, the filming will be smoother, no, the actors are being decided, except for you and Zhang Ziyi, the rest of the people have not been decided, now, Director Zhang is auditioning, let's rush over and have a look." ”
The relationship is not officially turned on, and when he got into the car, Ye Ming's heart finally let go. The scene of the audition was actually the Drama Academy, which surprised Ye Ming, why was he not in the New Flower Noodle Company, but he didn't ask that.
Zhang Yimou came to beckon the actors, which in itself was a big event that caused a sensation in the School of Drama, and some classmates were well-informed, so they knew that the heroine had been selected a few days ago, it was Zhang Ziyi, a freshman in the academy, and the male protagonist was said to have been selected, as for who it was, not many people knew it at this time.
And this time, director Zhang Yimou is going to choose a supporting actor, a supporting actor who plays [me].
Even if it is a supporting actor in director Zhang Yimou, this is a goal that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
People who like to perform, one counts as one, who doesn't want to show their face in Zhang Yimou's movie, even if there is only one shot.
Therefore, at this time, there are quite a few people who come to audition.
Zhang Weiping took Ye Ming with him, and naturally there were staff members who cleared the crowd and walked in. At this time, a few students were discussing, who was the person who came just now, it looked very familiar.
Because there are many stars in the drama academy, many of those big names are their teachers, and even senior brothers and sisters, so these students are a little used to big names or something.
However, finally one of the students remembered, patted the shoulder of another student and said: "Lao Sun, did you see the person who passed by just now, Ye Ming, the singer of [Legend], in just over ten days, he was crowned king in World War I, and he is the hottest singer in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait." ”
Lao Sun looked at Ye Ming who disappeared into the crowd and said, "I really haven't seen it clearly, what is Ye Ming doing here?"
The student snorted and said: "You, you deserve it, you can't find a suitable movie after graduation, the relationship between this is very esoteric, I am designated to audition, Ye Ming sings well, it doesn't mean that he is also good at acting, if you can climb the relationship with Director Zhang, it is a golden signboard." ”
Lao Sun looked noncommittally into the distance, squinted and slipped up a single eyelid, Zhang Yimou's movie, who doesn't want to be on it.
When Ye Ming and Zhang Weiping came in, the scene was resting, and there were three people sitting in the middle, one was Zhang Yimou, and the other two grades were relatively large, looking like teachers from the Drama Academy.
And a little beauty sitting on the side, delicate and refined, with a very photogenic goose egg face, black hair scattered, and between her eyebrows, there is indeed a shadow of Gongli. Zhang Ziyi, this girl is Zhang Ziyi.
After Zhang Yimou saw Ye Ming and Zhang Weiping, he immediately laughed and said, "Weiping, how did you do it, you are still with Ye Ming, how can the two of you meet together." ”
Then, everyone greeted each other, Zhang Weiping naturally said that there was no need to introduce, Zhang Yimou introduced Ye Ming and said: "Ye Ming, this is Teacher Song from the Academy of Drama, this is Teacher Li, the two of them are big names in the circle, if you have any performance questions in the future, you can ask the two teachers for advice." ”
Then, Zhang Yimou introduced Ye Ming again, although the two teachers are teaching and educating people, no matter what they are, they are also people in the industry, and they also have an impression of Ye Ming's recent hot star, so they are very polite.
Then, Zhang Yimou introduced Zhang Ziyi, at this time, Zhang Ziyi almost said that she could be regarded as a complete newcomer, a newcomer who was newer than Ye Ming, that is, she had filmed a shampoo advertisement with Zhang Yimou, and the rest did not have much experience in acting.
Therefore, compared with Zhang Ziyi, who was domineering and exposed later, the current Zhang Ziyi still seems relatively restrained.
After Zhang Yimou introduced, he said: "The two of you, get in touch with each other a lot, you will have to play in the future, and it will be easy to get into the state once you are familiar with it." ”
Ye Ming took this opportunity to scan Zhang Ziyi's data [Name, Zhang Ziyi. Age 19 years old, acting, 360, singing skills: 200, popularity: 230, force value, 180, perception: four stars. 】
Sure enough, Zhang Ziyi's perception is also very against the sky, and the four major Hua Dan do not have a fuel-efficient lamp. Even Zhang Ziyi's acting skills and popularity are not very high, but under the training of the famous director Zhang Yimou, it is said that it is a rapid progress.
After sitting down, Zhang Yimou seemed to suddenly think of something and said: "Ye Ming, I heard that you have made a new movie, I don't know how busy Lu Dao is, I am here, there is still a long time before the official start, but it is just a press conference." ”
Ye Ming naturally knew the height of his eyebrows, so he immediately replied: "This, hehe, it's already busy, a small-budget movie can't be compared with someone else's 100 million, a few friends get together as a team, and the shooting will be almost finished in a month, and the rest is post-production." Director Zhang, in fact, I have a question after I came, why do you want to bring us two actors for casting. ”
Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "You don't understand this, I choose the actors, I first have to select the protagonist, and the rest is to choose the supporting role according to the protagonist, and the supporting role is what is called a supporting role, which is to serve the protagonist."
Therefore, the demeanor and temperament of the supporting characters must match each other with the protagonist, otherwise, in such a situation, it will be said that it is a little unbeautiful.
It's not going to be very harmonious on the screen, because a lot of me shoots with close-ups, so at this time, the supporting characters must match the demeanor and temperament of the protagonist, otherwise I won't use it. ”
Every director has his own habits when shooting movies, which is also for what some directors shoot is garbage, and some directors shoot classics.
Zhang Yimou shoots movies, and he likes to use close-up shots of flying shovels, which can be seen from his habit of directing his first film "Red Sorghum".
After Zhang Yimou checked seven or eight actors, he found that there were no good seedlings, even Zhang Weiping, who was almost watching the excitement on the side, couldn't stand it anymore.
Zhang Yimou's requirements are not ordinarily high, but he also understands what his partner is like, and he knows that his partner is very harsh, at least in the selection of actors, it is impossible for others to influence it.
However, watching Zhang Yimou choose actors is indeed a very sadistic thing, so after watching a few, Zhang Weiping quickly left under the pretext that there was something in his company.
Teacher Song is relatively old and a little bald, and several of the students who were auditioned by Zhang Yimou were his students, but although he didn't know what Zhang Yimou's specific decision was, he also felt from Zhang Yimou's subtle expression that things might be a little wrong, and none of Zhang Yimou took a fancy to him.
At this time, Teacher Song took a sip of water and said, "Director Zhang, why don't we take a break for a while, and let the students in front of us also take a break, after all, it's your audition, they are in a hurry, and sometimes they don't play normally, which is also a reasonable thing." ”
Zhang Yimou shook his head and said, "Forget it." This matter, there is still no need to wait, as an actor, if you can't overcome this psychological barrier, then what kind of drama is there. Zhang Yimou's words were more direct, and Mr. Song was speechless for a while.
At this time, Mr. Li took over with a smile and said: "Originally, we thought that Director Zhang liked newcomers, so these people are more freshmen, after all, Xiaozhang is also a freshman, and it is also her luck to be favored by Director Zhang." If Director Zhang wants to find someone who is more proficient in acting, I will let a few graduated students come over for an audition, what do you think, Director Zhang?"
Zhang Yimou actually wanted to look at the problem from a different angle, and after thinking about it, he nodded and agreed, maybe he needed a supporting actor with more mature acting skills and a sense of vicissitudes.
