Section 115: Casting

(Three-in-a-row, yesterday's two shifts have been paid off, today's first shift, by the way, ask for subscriptions, ask for a monthly pass)

"Well, almost,"

Duane stood up from behind the camera and said to the actor standing in the audition room, "Go back and wait for the news, we'll let you know if there's news.??"

He'd said the same thing no less than 50 times in the past two days, but every time he said it, he still couldn't help but think of last summer: that summer, before he stepped into the industry, he didn't hear it less from the hiring executives in the talent market.

When the actor heard Duane's words, he also knew that he basically didn't have any drama, and the expression on his face was a little ugly, but he still bowed and withdrew.

This is the DreamWorks audition room, where Duane comes every day to report and has been working here for five days.

After the establishment of "One Flew Over the Asylum", Shu Yu added the salary standards of each role to his actors' requirements, gave them to the actors' union, and the actors' union immediately operated, and sent interview invitations to qualified registered actors across the country, and there were many people who were invited, which formed a sharp contrast with the current media about Du An's singing and declining - this is normal, no matter how Du An is sung, people have no confidence, but at least he is a second-tier director, and Shu Yu offers a lot of salary. For these special actors and supporting role professionals who can't even get into the second line, it is the king to be able to have a play and a salary, regardless of whether the play can be popular or not?

Du An walked back to the table and sat down, did not call the next one in, but said to Shu Yu who was sitting behind the table: "Didn't I tell you, be shorter and look festive, did you truthfully pass my request? Look at the one just now, he looks 1.75 meters tall, and it doesn't meet my requirements at all." โ€

There was a table in the audition room, and three chairs were placed in the back, and he sat separately. Shu Yu, as well as the person sent by the actors' union to supervise the interview, Wang Guoding - this is also an old friend, when the heroine of "Pretty Woman" auditioned. He was the one who came to DreamWorks to be there.

Wang Guoding heard that Du An was clearly saying this to Shu Yu, but he was actually saying it to him, and said with a wry smile: "Director Du, we did select people according to your requirements, and we really didn't know how to get in just now." โ€

Duane stopped talking. Some leaned back in their chairs in a sullen manner.

The current interview is mainly to recruit several supporting roles in "One Flew Over the Asylum", such as Xiong Jigang, a patient with mania, Fei Yong, who is a gentleman on the surface but is actually cowardly and timid, Shi Wei, who is like a normal person but often hysterical and neurotic, and so on. The other candidates are okay to say, the appearance requirements are not too strict, as long as the acting skills are qualified, basically half of the candidates are quickly decided one day a day, and now they are stuck on Mani.

In Duane's setting, Mani is a short, somewhat mentally retarded patient. Dedicated to the funny part to adjust the atmosphere of the film. This person needs to have a natural sense of joy and make people want to laugh when they look at him, so the choice of this character should be especially cautious.

That is, because of being cautious, it has been two days, and Duane has not found a suitable candidate: these people recommended by the actors' union are either too poor in acting, or they do not match the appearance, or they don't have that kind of laughing temperament, in short, they are not satisfactory.

"Alas......"

Duane sighed. Just as I was about to have someone call in the people below to continue the long casting journey, my phone rang.

When I took it out, it was Zhang Jiayi.

At the time of the Huabiao Awards. Du An wanted to find Zhang Jiayi to play a supporting role, but Zhang Jiayi did not immediately agree at that time, and only said that he would contact again.

Du An wanted to call Zhang Jiayi to ask him if he would come when he started the audition, but because he found Jia Hongsheng, a troublesome guy, to play the leading role, he felt that Zhang Jiayi might stay away from this drama because of this, so he did not contact Zhang Jiayi again. I didn't expect him to call today.

Du An answered the phone and said "Hey", and he almost knew why Zhang Jiayi made this call.

"Hey, Director Du, I'm Zhang Jiayi. โ€

"Well, I know, how's it going?"

The two exchanged a few words, Du An went around and around to daily life, and didn't ask Zhang Jiayi what was going on, and finally Zhang Jiayi couldn't help it, and cut straight to the point, saying: "Director Du, do you still have a role in that play?"

Du An saw that he had enough of the posture, and he didn't hold it anymore, so he said directly: "Yes, there is a supporting role, and there are still a lot of scenes, are you coming?" and then heard Zhang Jiayi on the other end say: "Come, I'll go to Nanyang tomorrow, let's meet and talk?"

"Okay. โ€

Du An chatted with Zhang Jiayi for a few more words and put down his phone.

Although Manny was stuck, Shi Wei got it, which was also a happy event, which relieved Du An's troubles a little. I just don't know why Zhang Jiayi has to lean on himself, how can he say that he is also a second-tier actor, are you afraid that he won't act?

Duane thought about it, but couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it anymore, opened his mouth, and was about to call the people below in, but the phone rang again.

Why is it still connected.

And when he picked it up and looked at it, it turned out to be Zhu Qian!

Duane didn't know whether to answer the call or not, but when he hesitated, he was stunned to find that he had already connected the phone and put it to his ear.

"Director Du, I heard that you have a play to play? โ€

Zhu Qian's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Duane smiled bitterly, "Don't you have "Wu Ji" to play?" and then said seriously: "Wu Ji is a blockbuster, you have to seize this opportunity." โ€

The selection of Li Hui, the heroine and head nurse of "One Flew Over the Asylum", has not yet been decided, and the casting is also underway. However, unlike the screening interviews such as supporting casting, he met for interviews one by one after Shu Yu found them, but so far he has interviewed five or six, but he still hasn't been able to find one that satisfies Duan.

After interviewing several actresses, Du An's more and more he felt that Zhu Qian was suitable, but he really regarded Zhu Qian as a friend, and he didn't want to delay her future, so he didn't want her to leave "Wuji" to come to himself.

Zhu Qian's laughter came from the other end, "It was only turned on in February, and I didn't have a place to mix it up before, so I called you today." If you have a job before February, can you leave me a role? I can make some money for the New Year. If you're short on money, you can go half of the market price, or do a part-time job anyway. โ€

Duane stopped talking.

Zhu Qian's words warmed his heart, and now, there are fewer and fewer friends who are so righteous.

Then he began to calculate in his mind.

Although the role of head nurse Li Hui is the heroine, but in the whole play, there are not many scenes, if you concentrate all Li Hui's scenes when making a shooting plan and bring them to the front to shoot, more than one month is enough, so that even if the filming starts in January, it can be done in February.

Especially Zhu Qian's strength, he also knows that the number of ng times is very small, and it can shorten the time.

After thinking about it like this, Du Ane said: "Okay, then you can come, but there is no need to reduce the price, and I can't break the rules. How much or how much, I don't have anything else, but I have money, and you don't have to worry about it. โ€

After talking to Zhu Qian on the phone, the expression on Duane's face became more relaxed.

Okay, the hero and heroine are all done, they are all candidates who satisfy him, what else is there to relax? A few supporting roles, just choose slowly, you can always find it.

"Jusie?"

Shu Yu asked from the side.

Du An nodded, and then Shu Yu then asked, "Does she have a B or above?"

Duane's expression froze: dare to love her, she still remembers her conditions firmly.

He didn't look at Shu Yu, stared directly at the door, said "Measure it with your own hands, c", and then said to the staff at the door: "Call the next one to come in." โ€

When filming "Pretty Woman", he and Zhu Qian had a lot of intimate scenes, touched everywhere, and knew something about it.

As the shouts of the staff fell, the door opened, and a short man in his thirties squeezed in.

This man looked a little ruffian, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, he walked to the middle and stood still, smiled, and both eyes were almost invisible.

"Hello teachers, my name is Huang Bo. (To be continued.) )
