Chapter 835: [Casting]

Ning Caichen, Zhang Guorong.

Heroine, Wang Guxian.

The lineup of this male and female protagonist was preliminarily decided after it was determined that "A Chinese Ghost Story" would be remade.

As for why it is preliminary.....

If Mo Xuan is not satisfied, even if Xu Ke is personally satisfied, it will be in vain.

"Ten Tsai and Xiaoxian?"

Hearing this, Mo Xuan looked at Xu Ke with interest.

To be honest, he was a little surprised by this candidate, and as for the surprise, it was on the heroine Wang Guxian.

"A Chinese Ghost Story", as a classic ghost film in the glorious era of Xiangjiang films, as early as in his previous life, Mo Xuan also "never got tired of watching it".

According to a news he saw on the Internet, in this movie that established Wang Guxian's "first female ghost", Xu Ke's first choice for the heroine was not her.

It is rumored that before the filming of the film, Wang Guxian, who was still a little famous at the time, called Xu Ke's wife Shi Nansheng to ask for an audition, but Shi Nansheng at that time did not consider Wang Guxian at all, so he politely rejected her;

It wasn't until later that Wang Jixian personally approached Tsui Hark and asked for an audition.

Forced to have no suitable candidate for the time being, Xu Kecai agreed, and Wang Guxian's beautiful appearance during the audition was just right, which made him make up his mind, and Wang Guxian got this classic role.

But now.... Looking at Xu Ke's face, Mo Xuan was distracted for a while.

Could it be that the news is fake, Xu Ke really fell in love with Wang Guxian at the first moment when he decided to shoot "A Chinese Ghost Story"?

Suddenly, Mo Xuan wondered in his heart.

However, he wondered that it didn't matter, but his expression at this time, every move, was seen by Xu Ke, who was always paying attention to the changes in his expression.

"yes. ”

Seeing the reaction on Mo Xuan's face, Xu Ke hung a "small stone" in his heart, and then explained to Mo Xuan with some "trembling" and "walking on thin ice":

"Mr. Mo, that's what I think. ”

In "A Chinese Ghost Story", Ning Caichen is an almost perfect scholar: he is simple, innocent, kind, and infatuated. ”

And Mr. Zhang Guorong, as a rare male artist in the entire Xiangjiang who has a comprehensive development of film and television songs, whether in the music industry or in the film industry, he has sufficient appeal.

It just so happens that he has a "bookish anger" on his body, which is very consistent with Ning Caichen's temperament. ”

Indeed, as Xu Ke himself said, he is really optimistic about Zhang Guorong, especially on Ning Caichen, Zhang Guorong is Ning Caichen, and Ning Caichen is Zhang Guorong.

In later generations, Xu Ke recalled that after deciding to shoot "A Chinese Ghost Story", he found Zhang Guorong as soon as possible.

At first, Zhang Guorong agreed, but later heard that it was a costume film and refused, because he was unwilling to wear weird clothes to act in some weird stories. So in order to try his best to eliminate Leslie Cheung's concerns, he got the costume to show him, and said that the core of the film is actually a modern story, and in the end, Leslie Cheung was slowly convinced.

From this, it is not difficult to see Xu Ke's love for Zhang Guorong.

Therefore, for the "A Chinese Ghost Story" he wants to film, Zhang Guorong is naturally Ning Caichen's first choice, especially since the other party is still an artist from Huanyu Records and a brother company of Zongheng Pictures.

This one is even better.

"As for Miss Wang Guxian......"

Seeing that when he was explaining his choice of Zhang Guorong to play Ning Caichen, there was no "dissent" on Mo Xuan's face, and Xu Ke breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Among all the candidates, Zhang Guorong is his favorite.

If it is not necessary, he is real, really, and he doesn't want to let himself miss Zhang Guorong.

After this Guorong passed, Xu Ke's heart relaxed, and the remaining Nie Xiaoqian candidate, Wang Guxian, was actually a "gift package" that Xu Ke gave to his boss in exchange for the other party's "full support" for him.

According to the "grapevine", the man in front of him seemed to have "special favor" for Wang Guxian, although Wang Guxian came to Xiangjiang from Taiwan Island through the way of Fang Yihua of the Shaw Family.

With the blessing of this factor, plus Wang Guxian happened to be famous because of his knife girlfriend in the movie "God of Gamblers".

So, this seems "logical".

"Why? Look at what I'm doing, go on. ”

Looking at the expression on Xu Ke's face, Mo Xuan felt a little "inexplicable" in his heart, what was this Xu Ke doing.

"Oooh. ”

As soon as he heard Mo Xuan's words, Xu Ke hurriedly said "oh", and then told all the advantages of Wang Guxian and the reasons why he was suitable for the role of Nie Xiaoqian:

"Mr. Mo, Miss Wang, she ......"

.....

"How's it going?

In the office, looking at Xu Ke with a relaxed face, but with complexity, all kinds of emotions were mixed together, and Shi Nansheng, who was immersed in things, was a little strange.

She knew that today's "master" was going to Zongheng Pictures to hold the so-called "director's meeting", and by the way, there was also the report for the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story".

"It's okay. ”

As the saying goes, the male protagonist is outside, and the female protagonist is inside.

However, this sentence is not very suitable for the couple Xu Ke and Shi Nansheng.

Yes, Xu Ke is responsible for handling foreign affairs on weekdays, but this so-called "foreign affairs" only refers to film shooting and creation, as for others, he still needs Shi Nansheng's assistance.

Shi Nansheng, although she is Xu Ke's woman, she is not the woman behind her, but the woman next to her.

As a couple, Shi Nan's daily work, in addition to family trivialities, there are also Xu Ke's related work, such as-

In Xu Ke's studio, it belongs to Zongheng Pictures, and the finance, management, personnel, etc. of this studio are all handled by Shi Nansheng, so that Xu Ke has no worries.

As far as Shi Nansheng is concerned, she is also a strong woman.

Therefore, seeing Shi Nansheng asking, Xu Ke was not surprised, so he followed his "girlfriend" and told him, first of all, it must be this director hierarchy.

"Director Hierarchy!"

"Well, Nansheng, you see this hierarchy, is it a good thing or a bad thing for us. ”

According to which one said at the director's work conference, from now on, Zongheng Film Industry will implement the director system, and everything will be hierarchical.

The higher the level of the director, the higher the requirements of the script, the higher the degree of autonomy, in the process of filming, the funds provided by the company, the level of support, etc., and even the day of the release of the movie, dividends, can be said to be closely related to it.

However, the specific pros and cons of this, with Xu Ke's head, could not be analyzed for a while.

At this time, the only thing he could do, the first thing that came to mind, was to ask Shi Nansheng, when he was in Xinyi City, thanks to Shi Nansheng's advice, he could be regarded as having a place.

"Sir, you...."
