Hong Chen came to the company to review the list of actors.

Hongchen Media Company is the producer of this film, and it is jointly produced by the National Cultural Administration, the Academy of History and other institutions.

It can be said that this is a movie with a lot of background.

So, naturally, they have to take it seriously.

This time, all the old drama bones were invited, or actors with good reputation and acting skills.

Hong Chen has always adhered to the principle that acting skills are more important than traffic, and of course, it is also necessary to ensure that the popularity of actors reaches a certain level or more.

The content of the script of "Chongzhen" is the last day of the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Because it is an orthodox historical movie, neither the battle nor the momentum can be lost, and it must be perfectly restored, so this movie has a lot of investment.

The director of this drama is the director of Hongchen Media Company, called Li Qi, who has strong directing ability and belongs to the top director of the company.

There are many investment companies that want to invest in this movie, and when I heard that it was starring Hong Chen, many companies had to follow suit.

This also shows Hongchen's current market appeal.

But this movie is not a commercial movie after all, and Hong Chen didn't ask for so much investment, but just found three familiar ones, which can be regarded as sharing some risks.

Hong Chen has already got the script, so he knows the plot of this movie very well.

This drama is the story of the destruction of the country and the family, and the background and tone are full of tragedy.

And the core of this story is him.

In other words, the performance of this drama Hongchen accounts for at least more than 70% of the weight of the movie.

The whole crew has to watch his performance.

To be honest, if you are an ordinary person, such a scene will not be able to be played at all.

This kind of biographical film has high requirements for actors, and even a little disobedience will greatly reduce the effect of the whole play.

There are several classic scenes in this play.

The first is that King Li Zicheng wants to negotiate peace, to put it bluntly, he wants to recognize Li Zicheng as the emperor and establish a second country. At that time, Chongzhen wanted to negotiate peace, but he didn't want to be this sinner.

So on the top of the main hall, he hoped that someone from the civil and military officials would propose to agree to the peace and bear this infamy, but no one wanted to do so.

is like Li Hongzhang later, in fact, Li Hongzhang has fought for Huaxia at many negotiation tables, but at that time, the Qingzheng Mansion was too uncompetitive, so he was forced to sign so many treaties, and finally ended up with an infamy that has been infamous for thousands of years.

As a result, Da Ming was forced to go to war with Li Zicheng.

The next scene is that Chongzhen hopes that all elite soldiers can stand up, but where are there still people who have been poor for a long time, Li Zicheng attacked the palace all the way.

Then there was the flames of war, and the Ming Dynasty was full of depression and panic.

In the midst of this war, gunsmoke erupted outside the palace, and it was only a matter of time before Li Zicheng attacked the palace.

At this time, it is the focus of this play, Chongzhen killed all the harem concubines, grief-stricken and indignant, and walked to the coal mountain with a loyal old eunuch, and finally chose to hang himself.

This is a declining emperor.

This is an incompetent emperor.

Of course, some things have to do with his own doing.

For example, when he was seventeen years old, he was just and executed the traitor Wei Zhongxian.

At that time, in the dispute between the eunuch party and the Donglin party, Wei Zhongxian, as the leader of the eunuch party, persecuted many people from the Donglin party.

But there is one thing to say, as a eunuch, Wei Zhongxian at least knows one thing, that is, his rights are given by the imperial power.

He will persecute his ministers and be insatiable, but he will always be loyal to the emperor.

Wei Zhongxian is naturally a damned person, but as an emperor, the seventeen-year-old Chongzhen doesn't understand the emperor's mental skills, and the court situation is not stable, how can he kill the eunuch who has the role of maintaining the court situation?

Wei Zhongxian was in a cage at the time, knowing that he would die, but he still bluntly admonished Chongzhen:

"If you want Daming to live for a few more years, you must not be important to the Donglin henchmen. ”

But Chongzhen apparently didn't listen.

As a result, the Donglin Party took power, and the entire Ming Dynasty gradually died in warm water. No one will directly recommend it, no one will be loyal to it, and some are just nonsense that "it is all up to His Majesty".

The actors selected for this play, except for a few old actors who were invited, a large part of them are newcomers to the company.

Lu Jia plays the eldest princess in this play, who is Chongzhen's daughter.

In fact, the two of them are about the same age, only about 3 years old, but if Hong Chen wants to make up as an emperor, it doesn't matter.

There is a scene that is more important, that is, Chongzhen at the end, in order to prevent his concubine and daughter from falling into the hands of the enemy, after drinking dozens of glasses of wine, he personally slashed and killed Queen Zhou, Concubine Yuan and his two daughters.

While chopping it back, he cried: "Why were you born in the emperor's family." ”

Some people say it's a bit cruel, but it's actually history.

To give a simple example, the reason why the American drama "Game of Thrones" is so popular is because the killings and grievances in it are fruitful, and family, love, life and death are worthless in the face of rights and interests.

Thinking about the shame of Jingkang back then, the fate of the princess of the previous dynasty was so tragic that people couldn't bear to mention it.

So, death is the best relief.

The capital of the country is dead, as the royal family of the country, how can it be possible to live well.

Therefore, Chongzhen was right to do this.

History's evaluation of Chongzhen is "the king of the dead country who is least like the king of the dead country", because he has the means, ideas, and scheming, but he is suspicious by nature, and the Ming Dynasty is terminally ill, so there is no way.

Lu Jia is still very beautiful in ancient costumes, with a pale pink classical long skirt and a delicate makeup, her smile is particularly eye-catching.

"You can't laugh so much when you're acting, it's a tragedy after all. When Hong Chen and Lu Jia were playing, they said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Brother Hong Chen, my acting skills are not bad. Lu Jia smiled playfully.

Lu Jia can now be regarded as one of the faces of Hongchen Media, her youthful and beautiful image is the killer of countless straight men, and she is born with a "first love face", and her figure and appearance are not to be said.

Then, Hong Chen also went to set the makeup.

The makeup artist carefully designed the makeup for Hong Chen, in order to show the dilapidated scene of the mountains and rivers, the makeup artist deliberately made his hair a little messy, his eyes were a little haggard, and the whole person looked listless.

"You're not doing it right. After looking at his makeup, Hong Chen shook his head.

Director Li Qi was on the side, stepped forward and asked, "Hong Chen, what's wrong." ”

Hong Chen looked at himself in the mirror and said, "There is no doubt that Chongzhen knows that Daming is going to die, but he is unwilling to do so. He knew that he was the king of a country, and in the end, he had to maintain the majesty of the king of a country. ”

"What do you mean?"

"The scene can be chaotic, but Chongzhen can't be chaotic, on the contrary, his demeanor should be more neat and majestic! Because he is the Son of Heaven, his demeanor is the only thing he can insist on in the end. ”

Hearing Hong Chen's words, Li Qi was stunned for a moment, and then tasted it carefully, and found that what Hong Chen said was very right.

The king of the dead country, everyone thought that it must be a vicissitudes of life and a messy image.

But Hong Chen's words made them react.

Although he is the king of the fallen country, he is the king after all!

Even if it is death, you must be decent, and you must have the posture of an emperor!

At the same time, there is also an expert who specializes in history, named Li Xishan. He is a member of the Cultural Affairs Bureau and has studied history for many years, this time as a consultant for the film.

At first, he also felt that there was something wrong with Hong Chen's makeup, but now when he heard Hong Chen's words, he suddenly realized.

Right!

Chongzhen can't be said to be a bright monarch, but he is definitely not a faint monarch, Chongzhen is ambitious, and at the same time, he will pay more attention to his demeanor.

When Li Xishan heard this, he not only glanced at Hong Chen.

He was very satisfied when he knew that the leading actor was Hong Chen, otherwise as an old-timer of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, he would not have come out to be a special consultant for any movie.

Now that I hear Hong Chen's opinion, I can't help but admire it even more.

After that, the makeup artist re-set the makeup for the character.

This time, the majesty of Hongchen was immediately revealed.

After he used his skills to dominate the world, he was even more magnificent, as if the real emperor was alive.

After that, Hong Chen convinced everyone with his acting skills.

On the top of the main hall, in the face of the scene where Li Zicheng proposed peace, his performance was impeccable.

The reason why Li Zicheng negotiated peace was because he didn't want to risk the world's condemnation to destroy the emperor, otherwise the Liao army and the Qing army would deal with him at that time, so he chose to negotiate peace, and for the time being, he was just crowned king, to put it bluntly, there was no difference between being the emperor and being the emperor.

None of the civil and military officials answered him, and no one was willing to offer an offer to agree to peace.

Hong Chen sat on the throne, exuding the majesty of the Son of Heaven all over his body. But if you look closely, you find that in the majesty of this Tianzi, there is less strength and more helplessness.

In particular, his sluggish and desperate eyes are just right to show what it means to be alone.

His face was full of indecision and resentment.

These courtiers in the audience, at the critical moment, all became useless rice buckets!

When Hong Chen performed this scene, the eyes of all the crew focused on him.

They don't know how to describe how they feel.

At this moment, they seemed to really see the sad emperor who was dying!

Hong Chen's performance really affected their state of mind!

Is this the charm of a national treasure actor?

Many staff members of the crew looked at Hong Chen at this moment, with a look of adoration and respect in their eyes.

No wonder Hongchen can get to where he is today.

This acting is really amazing!
