Chapter 963: Final Preparations

Hundreds of millions of investments, casting in ten places across the country, has attracted everyone's attention.

More importantly, this is a movie jointly shot by Yi Shuihan and Xu Zhengqiang.

The Infernal Affairs series invested by Yi Shuihan is still talked about until now, and Xu Zhengqiang's comedy blockbusters in recent years also make people laugh.

Everyone is looking forward to what kind of miracle this movie called "Kung Fu" can create.

Of course, there are also many people who watch coldly, and they are waiting for the dismal end of this movie before stepping on it hard.

The competition in the film field has always been fierce and direct.

At this time, Yi Shuihan and Xu Zhengqiang were looking at the resumes screened by the staff.

The actors they have previously determined have all been confirmed.

The protagonist Ah Xing is naturally played by Yi Shuihan, and the heroine mute girl is determined to be played by Liu Ruiya.

Two days ago, Yi Shuihan and Liu Ruiya had a detailed conversation.

Yi Shuihan euphemistically refused Liu Ruiya's request to add a little more drama, and got a friendship price from Liu Ruiya.

Because of the lack of scenes, Yi Shuihan only spent 3 million to invite actress Liu Ruiya to join.

In Liu Ruiya's words, it was a big loss, and Yi Shuihan accepted her favor.

The charter man and the charter wife are naturally played by Cheng Shangge and Sun Fei, two old drama bones.

The effect of their audition is perfect in Yi Shuihan's opinion, and it is in no way inferior to the performance of the original work.

The protagonist's partner Fat Boy is played by Zhao Chong, as his name suggests, he is only 1.75 meters tall and weighs more than 200 pounds.

Coupled with his honest face and good acting skills, he is naturally the best choice to play the role of Fat Boy.

Because of the similarity of the characters, although he knew that he had great hopes of passing, Zhao Chong was still very excited when he learned that he was determined to act.

For his appearance, it is actually very difficult to want a suitable role, let alone this kind of big production with an investment of hundreds of millions.

For Yi Shuihan and Xu Zhengqiang, he was quite sincere and thankful.

The evil god of Huoyun is played by Xu Zhengqiang's old friend Zhang Sichao, whose comedy skills are not inferior to that of comedy masters.

Just wearing a white tattered vest and carrying flip-flops, the appearance of sitting there and hanging around conquered Yi Shuihan and Xu Zhengqiang.

Yi Shuihan is looking forward to the rivalry with the old-timer Zhang Sichao.

The two blind masters are played by Wei Yikun and Luo Shiyuan, two powerful actors, they are not comedians, but they are more than enough to deal with these two roles.

And the beggar who gave the protagonist the cheats was a cameo by Lin Zhaoying, who has rarely acted in recent years, so he responded to Xu Zhengqiang's face and came to make a cameo appearance in this role.

It can be said that the movie "Kung Fu" has brought together a large number of powerful artists before it was launched.

Among them, the biggest credit is naturally the director Xu Zhengqiang, and these actors are basically handled by him.

Yi Shuihan thought about letting the artists signed by the studio play certain roles, but after discussing with Xu Zhengqiang, he extinguished his idea, because it was not too suitable.

He doesn't favor the studio because they're signed artists, it's all about the quality of the film.

Those are the roles that have already been confirmed, but more are still to be selected.

Sauce Explosion, Crocodile Gang Boss, Axe Gang Boss, Axe Gang Second Leader, Axe Gang Master, Buck Tooth Jane, Coolie, Tailor Master, Pastry Master......

This is also the biggest purpose of their audition.

"How many did you choose over there?" both of them bowed their heads and were busy, and after a while, Xu Zhengqiang raised his head and asked, "These resumes are simply amazing!"

Yi Shuihan smiled and said: "The audition is like this, there are many opportunities to cast a wide net, I have picked out more than 100 copies here, and I will have to be busy by then!"

This is a preliminary audition, to see if the image matches the character, naturally it is very fast, but there is a lot of work in the audition after that.

"Hmm...... You see, this girl doesn't have the feeling of bucktooth Jane, I feel a little interesting. Xu Zhengqiang asked.

Yi Shuihan glanced at it, pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "It doesn't feel right, you can let her try it......"

……

In the huge office, I only heard the flipping sound of the resume, most of which were top students selected by major art schools, and of course, there were also group performances who dreamed of becoming famous.

From time to time, some were taken out, some were put aside.

Many times, the fate of actors is so easily swayed.

Maybe just by looking at it, you will get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

At this time, Yi Shuihan has grown to the point where he can easily decide the future of others.

In these scripts, in fact, the images and resumes of many actors have been recognized by Yi Shuihan and Xu Zhengqiang.

However, the final result is determined by the effect of their live performance.

It took them two days to finally read all the resumes that had been delivered.

Although most of the candidates were eliminated, hundreds of resumes were still left.

The audition project is still huge!

Two days later, the audition in Qiantang officially began.

When they arrived at the rented office floor, it was already crowded outside.

After being notified, he sat nervously on the big bench outside, and although he had tried to be as quiet as possible, the sound was still impossible to ignore.

"Quick, help me see if my makeup is on. "What questions do you say will come out later?" "Will Director Xu and Teacher Yi's assessment be very strict?

And so on, and so on.

In addition to these houses, there are more people, they have all submitted resumes, but they have not received notice, but they are not reconciled, waiting for the opportunity to recommend themselves.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the interview started on time.

The first one to come in was a polite man with glasses, who looked a little shrewd, but it was the four-eyed office worker in the interview drama.

It's the guy with the glasses who "seems to have a ...... of prejudice against people who wear glasses".

The image is very consistent, there is a little bit of a Sven scum feeling, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Yi Shuihan frowned.

This actor is not only sven in appearance, but his personality is really too gentle and slow, which does not match the role.

It's a pity...... Yi Shuihan sighed in his heart.

The auditions are on track.

In the lounge waiting for the audition, a female artist with a protruding maxillary deformity, that is, extremely serious buckteeth, nested in the corner.

Although her acting skills are good, because of her image, she has never got a role with lines, and what makes her persist until now is her love for this profession.

When she learned that the crew of "Kung Fu" needed a role of Bucktooth Jane, she knew her chance had come!

And in another chosen place, in a humble room.

A sluggish-looking man looked at the audition invitation on his phone, and only cheered after a moment.

"Kung Fu"! I'm coming!

Across the country, many actors who have received invitations are eagerly waiting for the arrival of the judging team.
