Zhang Ran beckoned to Zhang Ziyi and motioned for her to come over quickly.

Zhang Ziyi smiled at Zhang Ran, then walked over, walked in front of him, and shouted, "Director, I'm sorry, I'm late!"

Zhang Ran smiled and waved his hand: "No, there are still a few minutes!" As he spoke, he introduced the members of the crew to Zhang Ziyi, and then asked Zhang Ziyi to change his costume and prepare to try out the shot.

Half an hour later, the two actors changed their costumes and put on their makeup.

Wang Yun wore a black T-shirt with an irregular design, and there were four Chinese characters written with a brush for "Maple Knife City". The clothes were designed by Wang Daren, and the whole design is simple and smooth, with an industrial aesthetic. Wang Yun thought it was very good, walking around in front of everyone who was very smelly, and kept asking everyone, is it very handsome?

Zhang Ran has collaborated with Wang Yun in three plays, and his roles are very few, so he doesn't need to audition. Zhang Ran mainly wanted him to try on the costume and help Zhang Ziyi play casually.

Zhang Ziyi is wearing a heavy SWAT costume, and the whole costume is a bit similar to the costume of "New SWAT Judge", with a black leather jacket, leather pants, and boots. At the same time, the costume is equipped with bulletproof hard blocks, gold shoulder pads, and a SWAT badge on the left chest. The whole person stood there, and it was really heroic.

Zhang Ran sat on the chair, looked at Zhang Ziyi, and also looked at her style, I felt good, but I felt that Zhang Ziyi was a little thinner. He asked Zhao Fei what they thought, and everyone thought it was good. Zhang Ran wanted to hear Zhang Ziyi's own opinion, and asked, "Ziyi, what do you think?"

Zhang Ziyi smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's so heavy, this body has more than ten pounds, right? The clothes are a bit big and a little loose to wear!"

Zhang Ran explained: "This is a sample. When the time comes, it will definitely be customized according to your body shape. You'll probably have to run in this outfit all the time during the shoot. Do the action, so you have to be trained. Okay, try the camera and see how it works!" After speaking, Zhang Ran distributed the script to Zhang Ziyi and Wang Yun and asked them to ponder the role.

Wang Yun took the script and looked at it seriously. Zhang Ziyi also pondered for a few minutes, and felt that the state was almost over, so she signaled Zhang Ran to start.

The scene that Zhang Ziyi wants to play is when the heroine is protecting the parliamentarians. Witness the legislator being killed, and the killer disappears like a ghost, as if through a wall. While following the lead, she remembered Jason from two years ago.

Auditions begin.

Zhang Ziyi plays the heroine, Wang Yun plays Jason's mother, and Zhang Ran plays Jason.

Zhang Ran sat on the chair, half-squinting and basking in the non-existent sun, but his gaze was dull and he couldn't see the slightest brilliance. After Jason was caught. Forcibly sent to a psychiatric hospital by the government, under the influence of drugs, he became a madman.

Wang Yun looked at Zhang Ran with a dull gaze, and he didn't feel sadness. Choked up and said, "I don't know what sins I created in my last life, but a good person has become what he is now!"

At this time, Zhang Ziyi walked over from the side. Her steps were heavy and her eyes were wary. From time to time, I used my peripheral vision to check the movement around me. Zhang Ziyi's role is a special police officer, and the future world is a population swelling. In a world where crime is quite serious, as a heavy SWAT, you must always be vigilant.

The time for actors to audition is often very short, and the time to get the script is even shorter, and it is impossible to have a particularly in-depth understanding of the characters and roles, let alone sort out the highest characters and the continuous actions. For an actor, the most important thing is to grasp a certain trait of the character and show it.

Zhang Ran sat opposite Zhang Ziyi, carefully observing her performance, the feeling was very real, and she couldn't help but smile on her face, which is worthy of being trained by several big directors, and she is very good at grasping the characteristics of characters.

At this moment, Zhang Ziyi was a little tight from head to toe, and the whole person was like a stretched bow and arrow, ready to shoot arrows at any time!

"Excuse me!" Zhang Ziyi stared at Wang Yun and asked, "Is there a person named He Xi here?"

Wang Yun looked at Zhang Ziyi vigilantly and asked coldly, "What are you looking for him?"

Zhang Ziyi smiled and said that she had no malicious intent: "I just want to find Jason to understand the situation!"

"Jason!" Wang Yun muttered the name, something soft flashed from his eyes, his gaze turned to Zhang Ran, sighed softly, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Ziyi and said, "He is Jason, my son!" Wang Yun rubbed his eyes sadly: "Now it has become like this." ”

Zhang Ziyi looked at Zhang Ran, who was sitting on the chair with dull eyes, and really couldn't connect with the agile man two years ago, and asked, "How did he become like this?"

Wang Yun suddenly became angry, and his eyes flashed with fire: "It's not you people, say that he has mental problems, put him in a mental hospital, and then he will become like this!"

"This is a bit strange!" Zhang Ziyi frowned and fell into deep thought.

"Not bad, not bad!" Zhang Ran got up and slapped his face, his heart was determined, "Ziyi, your performance is very good, this is what I want, but it's not strong enough! Remember, you are acting as a battle-hardened special police officer, I want that energy!"

"Yes, director!" Zhang Ziyi smiled.

Waiting for Zhang Ziyi to change her clothes, Zhang Ran asked the photographer to transfer the content just shot to the computer and check it carefully. He is really satisfied, whether it is the character modeling or the performance, it is quite good.

Zhang Ran asked, "What do you think?"

Zhao Fei smiled and spread his hands: "I really don't have to say that the actors selected by Yimou really don't have to say, Ziyi is a movie face, with a small face, a very good face shape, a very standard appearance, no extra lines at all, a clean face plate and good color and lighting, it's really long for the big screen, it's really suitable and long!"

Zhang Ran agrees with this view very much, Zhang Ziyi's facial features are very standard, standard three courts and five eyes. At first glance, the facial features are not outstanding, but they are particularly attractive, and the whole person is very temperamental. Marquardt, an American plastic surgeon, used the yellow ratio to establish an ideal beauty model, called the Marquardt mask, which has long been used as one of the reference standards in the medical plastic surgery community, and Zhang Ziyi's face is particularly in line with the Marquardt mask.

Of course, Zhang Ziyi's appearance is standard, not that she is more beautiful than others. The main thing is that there are fewer defects, and I don't pick the angle when shooting. Ang Lee once said. Filming Tang Wei has to pick an angle, and he also said that Kate Winslet has to pick an angle. When shooting, you should pay attention to the lighting and angle, the light and angle are very amazing, and the angle is wrong, it will be worse; Zhang Ziyi is different, no matter how she shoots, it is very beautiful.

Zhang Ran had to sigh that some people are born with movie faces, and they are really born for movies!

In the afternoon, Zhang Ran talked about the contract with Zhang Ziyi's agent, and Zhang Ziyi's agent was his brother Zhang Zinan. Many domestic celebrities like to let their siblings or friends be agents at the beginning of their debut, but this is not a very good choice. These people are not professional, and often there are no black spots and some black spots are also made by the broker. Zhang Ziyi was hacked, and he had a lot to do with his brother, just take Splash Momen as an example, if he hadn't threatened Zhao Xinyu, things wouldn't have been so big at all.

In the process of negotiation, Zhang Zinan insisted on $1 million and did not let go. He saw that Zhang Ran was relatively young, and thought that he would eat Zhang Ran: "Ziyi acted in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Rush Hour 2". is now an international star, and the salary should be in line with international standards. Hollywood stars are paid tens of millions of dollars, is 1 million yuan very expensive? Now we have six or seven scripts in our hands!"

Zhang Ran looked at Zhang Zinan and said coldly: "If you want to talk about Hollywood's salary, I know better than you! Do you know how much the heroine Kate Beckinsale is paid? It's only $50,000! Do you know how much Natalie Portman is paid now? It's just 1 million! I admire Ziyi, but just appreciation, we don't have to be in this movie. Luc Besson has always recommended Shu Qi. If you have this attitude, then I don't think there's any need to talk about it anymore!" He picked up the teacup, and the meaning of the send-off was very obvious.

Zhang Zinan didn't expect Zhang Ran to be so faceless. Just let yourself go. However, this drama is an international production, and Zhang Ziyi also told him that she doesn't care about the salary, she really wants to act in this drama, if she messes up, he can't explain it to his sister. He smiled flatteringly: "Director, aren't we talking, I didn't say that it must be 1 million, everything is easy to discuss!"

Zhang Ran took a sip of tea and said coldly: "Yes, I don't have the time to waste my tongue! 500,000 yuan, accept this matter and it's decided; if you think it's not good, you invite, I'll go to someone else!"

Zhang Zinan saw Zhang Ran's eyes were cold and his expression was cold, and he realized that the other party was not something he could handle, so he gritted his teeth and said, "We are willing to act in this play!"

At the same time that Zhang Ran and Zhang Zinan were talking about the contract, Tianhong Pictures received a notice from the General Administration to re-examine "Bloody Notes".

Zhang Zhiliang was stupid: "How can this be, what does it mean that the movie reflects something bad and will not be released for the time being?"

"It's just an excuse!" Yu Minghai was very depressed, "It's the same as when we say that "Burst Drummer" is contrary to the education policy!"

Zhang Zhiliang didn't expect this change, it was like being beaten with a stick, and asked: "What the hell is going on, is it Zhang Ran who is doing ghosts? Doesn't it mean that Nortel is someone on the film review committee, as long as our film is reviewed, they can't do anything about us?"

"Our drama is also in the name of Yindu, who else has such courage except them?But this thing is very strange, how could Bai Haigui come out for Zhang Ran and them?" Yu Minghai was very puzzled.

Yu Minghai called Liao Zhenggang just now, knowing that Bai Haigui, director of the General Administration, had named Bai Haigui to be re-examined, how could Zhang Ran have such great ability to ask Bai Haigui to take action? If he had to have something to do with Nortel, Bai Haigui's cadre Han Shanping had graduated from Nortel. However, this relationship is too far, and Han Shanping has no reason to stand up for Zhang Ran at all.

Zhang Zhiliang complained a little in his heart, I agree with you if you want to make Zhang Ran stink, but Zhang Ran and Nortel are not easy to mess with, they have to wait for our movie to be released, it's good now, I didn't get Zhang Ran, but dragged down my own movie!

Zhang Zhiliang asked cautiously: "Mr. Yu, do you want to make peace with Zhang Ran first, and then release our bomb after our release, so that Zhang Ran's reputation will be ruined!"

Yu Minghai almost scolded, it's like a pig's brain! Liao Ju stopped "Bursting Drummer" under pressure, and now the opponent has stopped our project and asked him to release "Bursting Drummer", others will look at him, what authority will he have in the General Administration in the future? Now there is no other choice but to make Zhang Ran stink in one go, otherwise you and I won't want to mix in the mainland film industry in the future!"

"What about my movie?" Zhang Zhiliang's movie box office is not good, and it is difficult to get the opportunity to make a film in Xiangjiang, Yu Minghai not only gave him the money to make the film, but also gave him the position of director, he still wants to do a good job.

Yu Minghai took out a cigarette, stuffed it into his mouth and lit it, and said coldly: "If Zhang Ran becomes as stinky as a pit of the mao, who will speak for him?" After speaking, he picked up the phone and dialed out: "The plan is in advance, the message can be sent!" (To be continued.) )
