"Three...... Hello teachers, I'm Li Chen. ”

Although he was a little embarrassed when he faced Li Mo, Li Chen still greeted Xue Xiaolu and the others very politely after entering the door.

In addition to Xue Xiaolu, the official director and nominal producer, Zong Shuai, the general manager of Molong Media, and the boss Li Mo attended today's audition lineup.

Among the rest, the most heavyweight is the already determined heroine of the movie - Liu Yifei.

In today's audition, Liu Yifei's role is mainly to serve as a partner for the rivalry, so that Li Mo and others can evaluate whether the audition actor is suitable for her.

As for the final decision of the actor, Liu Yifei basically has no right to speak.

The process of today's audition goes like this: First. The auditioner needs to design a self-designed introduction about the actor Hao Zhi according to the script he has already obtained, which can be in both Chinese and English.

However, considering that Hao Zhi, the actor in the film, is a person who can work normally in the United States, if the actor can introduce it in English, there will definitely be a bonus.

The second part is to play with the heroine Liu Yifei, there is no standard in this link, and what you see is a mysterious and mysterious 'feeling'.

It feels right, anything......

…………

It can be seen that Li Chen did prepare before coming to the audition today.

Although his English version of the introduction stumbled, and in the eyes of Xue Xiaolu and others, who are proficient in English, it was even a bit 'ridiculous', but considering that he only had less than 20 days before and after he got the script, it was enough to see how attentive he was to be able to reach the level he is now.

After introducing himself, Xue Xiaolu nodded at Li Mo, indicating that he had no other problems in the first stage of the test, and Li Mo opened his mouth to take over the conversation.

"Although there are still a little flaws in the accent, but all things considered, it's pretty good," After glancing at Liu Yifei and signaling her to start the next audition, Li Mo continued to speak, "The next part is for Yifei to play with you to see how well you have a tacit understanding, and the specific content starts here......"

"You have fifteen minutes to prepare, and you can read the lines according to the script......"

"If that's okay, let's get ready. ”

…………

Half an hour later, Li Mo exchanged glances with Xue Xiaolu, Zong Shuai and Liu Yifei, and basically eliminated Li Chen.

As for the acting, to be honest, it is the level of the actors in the TV series.

In "Beijing Love Story" and "Beijing Youth", it is almost the ceiling of his acting skills.

However, the most critical problem is that Li Chen's temperament is not at all like that of a father with children.

Although Li Chen is already thirty-five years old, I don't know if it's because he is not married, in the audition just now, he never performed the feeling of a single father.

If it were other movies, this lack of feeling would not be much of a problem, but in "Beijing Meets Seattle", Hao Zhi's status as a single father is the key to whether his character can stand.

Because Hao Zhi is a single father, he cares so much about his daughter and his original intention to care about Wen Jiajia......

This point collapsed, and the persuasiveness of the whole movie disappeared in an instant.

No way, just keep trying......

…………

Although there were only three people who participated in the audition in the end, the content of each audition was different, and after some tossing, Xue Xiaolu and Zong Shuai were okay, Li Mo and Liu Yifei were tired enough to play the roles in the movie with the three of them.

"Brother Xiaoming, that's all for today's audition. ”

The person who spoke was Li Mo.

Among the few people present, only Li Mo's identity is the most detached, and he has just cooperated with Wang Xiaoming, and there is also a bit of incense between them, and anything that offends people is basically handed over to him.

"At the latest, the company will notify you of the results of the audition. ”

"Hope is good news. ”

Wang Xiaoming smiled and nodded, seemingly not worried at all that he might lose the election.

…………

After sending Wang Xiaoming away, Li Mo and the others began to discuss the feelings of today's audition.

Li Chen is obviously not suitable for the role of Hao Zhi. ”

The first to speak was the producer Zong Shuai, although he didn't know much about acting, what he said was indeed the consensus of everyone.

"Although he is thirty-five years old, it is difficult for him to achieve the desired effect in our film in a short period of time, both in terms of acting skills and appearance. ”

"Deng Chao's acting skills do have the level of consensus in the industry. ”

The next person to speak was Xue Xiaolu.

It can be seen that she is very satisfied with Deng Chao's acting skills.

But she also has her own concerns about the issue of actors. "However, when he was playing with Yifei, I always felt that I was seeing a modern version of 'ruthless' and 'cold-blooded'......"

It can be seen that Liu Yifei's previous collaboration with Deng Chao in "The Four Famous Catches" is indeed 'deeply rooted in the hearts of the people'.

The character setting of 'X-Men' + 'Fengyun' not only ruined people's three views, but also made the co-starring actors unsuitable for working together again for a period of time.

"From this point of view, Wang Xiaoming has the same problem. After listening to Xue Xiaolu and Zong Shuai's opinions, Li Mo then spoke, "The combination of him and Yifei is too easy to think of "The Condor Heroes". ”

Liu Yifei, who had not spoken, rolled his eyes silently on the side.

Do I have a masterpiece or is it my fault......

…………

So far, all three candidates who have been invited to audition have been out......

The air in the audition room froze for a moment.

After all, if the choice of the actor is delayed, the preliminary preparations for the film cannot wait indefinitely.

Every extra day of delay is a real expense.

"Okay, everyone is tired today, since they can't think of a way for a while, let's go back and rest first, empty my brain, maybe sleep and get up, and the actor candidate has already appeared in front of me. ”

At this time, in the end, it is still Zong Shuai who can hold on.

Speaking of which, I was still frightened by Li Mo's previous casting results, although I didn't say it, but in the subconscious of Xue Xiaolu and Zong Shuai, deep in their hearts, they still had high hopes for the candidate selected by Li Mo.

If you really follow the normal casting speed of a movie, it is not uncommon for a character to find a role for months, or even years.

"Brother Zong is right," Li Mo clapped his hands, and waited for everyone's attention to be on him before continuing: "Brother Zong and Sister Xiaolu continue to release news and look for suitable candidates. ”

"The actor's company doesn't have to care about it, even if it objectively helps other companies praise people, it doesn't matter, as long as it's suitable, we will use it. ”

"In this movie, Yifei's role is bound to be the heaviest, as long as this remains the same, nothing else is a problem. ”

PS: Regarding the issue of actors' remuneration and appeal in the previous chapter, the author thinks so.

Indeed, it is an indisputable fact that the appeal of veteran Xiangjiang actors has declined, but before 2012's "Thai Embarrassment", mainland film and television companies had not discovered this, so they could get high salaries.

It was not until Xu Zheng, Huang Bo and even Wu Jing, Sheng Teng and others succeeded that everyone generally distinguished fame from box office appeal.

Audiences and production companies have also become rational, and this is a process.
