After New Year's Day in 2012, the script of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" was finally finalized, and more than a dozen young screenwriters in the screenwriting team discussed and wrote it together, which lasted more than two months.

The synopsis of the story is slightly different from when Lu Lin first proposed the concept of "Flood Universe", the original idea was that the Ten Sons of the Emperor of Heaven were dominant, and the ancestors were afraid of causing a flood and killing, so they would always deal with it in a low-key manner. When the ten days are empty, it will be the Great Witch Houyi who will make a move.

But in the process of script creation, some young screenwriters questioned it, thinking that the characters of the ancestors are basically fierce and violent, that is, if you let your whole family die, you will definitely let your whole family die, and you will be a ruthless person who is afraid of yourself when you go crazy.

Even the Emperor of Heaven doesn't care about it, let alone the three-legged golden crow of the junior. said that he was afraid of causing murder and robbery, and the explanation was a bit blunt.

After Lu Lin heard such feedback, he felt that the opinions were very good, and asked everyone to continue the discussion and straighten out the plot. Anyway, he is only responsible for proposing ideas, synopsis, specific details, lines, and logic, and the screenwriting team is responsible for filling and smoothing out.

In this way, the background and contradiction in the final script is: the Wu clan is the master of the desolate land, but due to the conflict between fire and water back then, the Wu clan is divided. Later, Zhu Rong and Gonggong both fell, and only then did Nuwa make up for the sky.

Although the earth is full of life, the Wu clan, which has been fighting with each other for many years, has long been torn apart. There are also two ancestral witches of Xuan Ming and Houtu who have a good relationship with the demon saint Nuwa, and they are not as hostile as other ancestral witches to the demon clan Heavenly Court.

The so-called brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted outside. The Heavenly Emperor, who had been plotting to truly control the Three Realms, continued to encroach on the power and interests of the Wu clan in the desolate land and the six realms of reincarnation, but at this time, the ancestral witches were more numb and more keen on infighting.

When the great witch Kuafu and Hou Yi died one after another, the ancestors and witches recognized the determination of the demon clan Heavenly Court to exterminate them, reunited, and fought with the demon clan endlessly, because of the second killing and robbery of the flood famine.

Generally speaking, a good movie script has to be polished for a long time, and even changed while filming, and even after filming, I feel that some scenes that I have worked hard to shoot are not good, and there are many examples of directly deleting and not using them.

The script of the version of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun", after being discussed by Long Lin, Bo Na, and the glamorous people, felt that there was no problem in starting filming.

As for what it can be filmed, it's all up to Lu Lin, after all, the director is the soul of film creation. The mess of seemingly good scripts, as well as the fact that the scripts that feel average make popular films, abound in the film and television industry.

After the script was finalized, Longlin Film and Television Company released the casting announcement of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun", including twelve ancestral witches, Da Wu Kuafu, Hou Yi, Chi You, Xingtian, and Hou Yi's wife Chang'e.

Demon clan characters: Emperor Tiandi Donghuang Taiyi, Ten Sons of Emperor Tian, Demon Master Kunpeng, Demon God Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Bi Fang, Gluttony, Qingniu, etc.

Due to the limited length of the article, many characters only show their faces in the movie and give a close-up, which can only be regarded as a small supporting role.

As for the demon saint Nuwa, she is just a soy sauce party in the play, so Lu Lin gave it directly to Tong Liya and made her a professional Nuwa.

As for the other roles, it is necessary to openly recruit actors from the entire entertainment industry. As soon as the announcement was issued, it can be said that it shook the Chinese film and television industry.

The 600 million cost blockbuster of Lu Lin, the first commercial film director in China, if you can participate in it, it is another thing to say, but it is not the same as the click!

For a time, there were countless celebrity materials thrown into Longlin's company, and the male stars had more choice. And the competition among actresses can only be described as miserable, and the targets are basically aimed at one, Chang'e.

600 million production, 3 billion director of the heroine of the new film, in front of such a role, no international superstar, no first-line actress does not want to play. What's more, he called Lu Lin directly and asked him to come out to chat, which is far crazier than the casting of "Breaking the Sky".

After Lu Lin took it a few times, he put his business number mobile phone in the assistant Gao Wen, unless there was a special relationship. Otherwise, she will pick it up directly and don't need to send it over.

A few days after the casting announcement was issued, there were rumors on the Internet: Lu Lin's so-called public casting was a gimmick, and it was simply hype. Hou Yi in this film has been starred by Lu Lin himself. As for the role of Chang'e, it should not be an outsider, it is estimated that it will be a newcomer to Lu Linli, the first actor signed by Longlin Film and Television, Di Lieba .

As for Zhao Liying, another actress of Longlin Company, it is estimated that she will play one of Xuan Ming and Houtu. And several actresses who participated in "Breaking the Sky" should compete for the role of Nuwa, as for who can win it, it depends on the relationship with Director Lu.

Because the post is related to the casting of the hottest "Hou Yi Shooting Sun", and there is an inside story and an inner decision, it has been widely reprinted and on the hot search.

In the end, there were many rumors, and some bad media actually published articles directly, and the role of Chang'e in "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun" was determined to be Di Lieba, and the industry bigwigs declared that they would resist insider trading.

Lu Lin couldn't smile bitterly when he saw it, so he had to hurriedly ask the people from the company's publicity department to issue an article to refute the rumors. At the same time, he called Fat Di, who was studying in the play, and said directly: "Have you watched the news in the past two days?"

"Mmmm, I read it, it said on the Internet that I was condemned to Chang'e, it can't be true, right?"

Lu Lin said: "Of course not!"

Fat Di let out an "oh" and said, "I don't think it's possible, brother is not the kind of person who makes small moves behind his back." I told my roommates and they still don't believe me!"

Lu Lin laughed and said, "Now I can explain to them, by the way, there is no media to interview you, right?"

Fat Di said: "Yes, there are always reporters who come in, but I don't accept interviews, just slip away, and then notify the security department." Haha, it's so funny that they're being chased away by the Security Section!"

Lu Lin laughed dryly, and said in his heart: "This girl!" but said: "Okay, that's what I told you, let's go to class with peace of mind, and when the casting comes out in a few days, there will be no reporters to bother you!"

After hanging up the phone, assistant Gao Wen came over and said, "Director Lu, Mr. Song called and said that Ms. Wang Jingqiang wants to meet you. ”

Lu Lin was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Song Ge had a good relationship with Wang Jingqi, and this woman had brought out many popular actresses, so she naturally came here for the role of Chang'e at this time. But the problem is that she is bringing now, or a female artist who has a relationship, I'm afraid there is no one suitable for the role of Chang'e!

But no matter how you say it, it was also introduced by Song Ge's relationship, and Lu Lin still has to give this face. Then he said, "Okay, then you can make an appointment!"

Gao Wen glanced at Lu Lin's schedule and said, "After two o'clock in the afternoon, you should have time, I asked her to come over at two o'clock." ”

Lu Lin said indifferently: "Okay, then at two o'clock in the afternoon, let her come over for an interview!"
