"Teacher, are you saying that the actor wants to invite Cheng Long to serve as the actor?" Zhou Bai was dumbfounded, he got the memory of "Hero" with relevant information, but he didn't expect such a thing, who would have thought that Zhang Yimou would want Cheng Long to be the male lead?

A costume martial arts movie, let Cheng Long act, Zhou Bai can hardly imagine what the effect will be when the film is completed, not that Cheng Long's acting skills are not good, but the image is too different, Cheng Long has acted in Gu Long's adapted movies before, and he will also act in "Myth" in the future, but he really doesn't have the temperament of an ancient chivalrous man.

Zhou Bai thinks that Cheng Long can't act in costume films, but don't play the kind of chivalrous man who kills a person in ten steps and doesn't stay for thousands of miles, he doesn't have any problems at all, Cheng Long has no problem playing a general, a warrior, or a beggar, but the chic and neat chivalrous man really can't act, and it is difficult for the audience to accept his image.

"Yes, this is a big production with international standards, we must invite actors with international box office appeal and martial arts skills, Cheng Long is now very well-known in the world, and it can be said that he is a well-deserved international superstar, it is appropriate to play the role of nameless. Zhang Yimou nodded and said, this is his ambition, he wants to break out of the world of Europe and reach the Americas.

"According to your script, teacher, although Nameless is serious, he is a chivalrous man who kills in ten steps, his age, image and personality are far from Brother Cheng Long, and it is very difficult to act, if you want to invite him, the script has to make some changes. Zhou Bai said vaguely, he couldn't directly say that Cheng Long was not suitable, he could only say that it was far from the script, otherwise who knows when Cheng Long would know what he said today, no one in the entertainment industry can say.

"What you say is not unreasonable, Cheng Long is now famous, and it is not easy to invite, he is now developing in Hollywood, and the salary is also high, if the book can't impress him, it is estimated that he will not be invited. Zhang Yimou agreed and said that he wanted to invite Cheng Long, but it didn't mean that he could invite him if he wanted to.

"It's still a long time before the official shooting, and the international influence in the Chinese film industry is nothing more than Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, both of whom are developing in Hollywood, and they are not easy to invite, so you can try to contact them first when the time comes. By the way, teacher, do you want me to play the role of Ruyue?" Zhang Ziyi said next to him.

"That's right, Ruyue has a lot of roles, she is the second female, Feixue I want to invite Zhang Manyu to play, her influence in Europe is not small, although she is not as good as Gong Li, but she is the only candidate besides Gong Li. Zhang Yimou smiled and did not deny it.

"Then I will set aside the schedule in the second half of next year, there are a lot of martial arts scenes for this role, it seems that I still have to participate in training, I have been training for a long time to shoot "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Li An, the style of this movie is different from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", I have to spend time preparing to play it well. Zhang Ziyi said with a slight excitement that a "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has benefited her immensely, and she is even more unlikely to miss this movie.

"Giving you this role is also with the intention of pushing you, you have now increased your influence internationally through "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and my film is also aimed at the international market, I hope it can succeed and let you follow suit. Zhang Yimou didn't hide it at all, he preached honestly.

"Thank you for the cultivation of the teacher, if there was no teacher, I would not be where I am today. Zhang Ziyi was so moved that she almost shed tears, Lao Mouzi was so kind to her, and if he did his part, his own children might not have such treatment.

"Zhou Bai I want you to play the role of the remnant sword, he has a broad mind, calligraphy and swordsmanship are the first in the world, with an elegant and elegant temperament, and the unparalleled sharpness of a swordsman, although you are young, you can control the older role, and playing this role in your image can be described as a match made in heaven. Zhang Yimou turned his head and said to Zhou Bai.

"Ah, isn't it the role of Changkong? With my current influence, I can't win such an important role. Zhou Bai was stunned for a moment and said, if his memory is not wrong, the role of Remnant Sword is played by Liang Chaowei, the actor who just won the Cannes Best Actor, has a lot of influence in Europe and the United States, and is very popular with the audience.

I really don't know what Lao Mouzi thinks, it's really a mysterious role arrangement.

"Changkong's role is a little small, I can't give full play to your advantages, you already have some influence in Europe, the DVD of "My Father and Mother" sells very well, and many viewers buy it for you, Ziyi can't compare to you in this regard. Zhang Yimou shook his head and sighed.

Although the distribution rights of "My Father and Mother" were sold early, and the copyrights of VCD and DVD were also sold, Zhang Yimou was also shocked when he got feedback, "My Father and Mother" sold exceptionally well, and many audiences especially liked Zhou Bai's performance in it.

"I didn't get any news, I came back after the Berlin Film Festival to be busy with graduation, and after graduation, I was busy taking the Mandarin exam, and after being admitted, I went on to shoot "Fifty Times of First Love", it seems that my news is very closed. Zhou Bai said thoughtfully.

"Now the script is still in preparation, this is not yet the final draft, I originally wanted to adapt the works of Jin Yong and Liang Yusheng, but it didn't work, so I decided to make it up myself, this is the first draft, the main characters are actually those few, nameless is the most important, and the remaining remnant sword, Feixue, King Qin, Ruyue, and Changkong are the main characters in the movie.

I'm still not satisfied with the current plot, maybe it needs to be revised at that time, it's hard to say whether the scene will change after the final draft, anyway, I will definitely leave you a role here, you have to come anyway, when we were filming in the past, you hit wooden stakes every day, I am also very curious about you acting in martial arts films, I want to see how you can play in the end. ”

Zhang Yimou's face kept smiling, he couldn't be clearer about Zhou Bai's kung fu, when he was in the crew, Zhou Baitian hit wooden stakes every day, and his martial arts skills were clear at a glance, martial arts films need to have martial arts skills, so Zhou Bai's filming can be said to complement each other.

"Teacher, you don't know that he is a kung fu master, during the art exam, he casually put down three hooligans with knives in two strokes, many people in our class want to know how his kung fu is, but he refuses to show it, just to make a movie can be used, especially suitable. Zhang Ziyi was also happy, how high Zhou Bai's kung fu is, this is one of the three mysteries of Chinese opera.

Zhang Ziyi's words made Zhang Yimou laugh, but Zhou Bai was speechless.

The so-called three mysteries of Chinese opera, Zhou Bai's kung fu, Wu Guohua's age, and Xia Yu's acting skills, these are things that Chinese opera people will never understand, so they are called the three mysteries.

How high Zhou Bai's kung fu is, no one can know, anyway, everyone knows that he will in the Chinese opera, but no one knows how it is, only that there is no second time when he tries to compete with him anyway.

Wu Guohua's age is also a mystery, anyway, he looks very old, he has never been arrested when he goes to the teacher's channel to eat, and no one knows the specific age.

Xia Yu's acting skills are also a fan, sometimes the dramas he plays make people feel very good, and sometimes they make people feel very mediocre, there is nothing to be desired, the acting skills are high and low, and no one knows the depth.

This is a joke in Chinese opera, so I won't show it for the time being.
