Chapter 050: Finding Banker's Actor

Banker is Li Xiang's favorite character in "Genius Gunman", and he is the biggest tragedy and victim in the entire movie. Many people think that he hates the rich and blackening is inevitable, but Li Xiang doesn't think so. Li Xiang thinks that in his inner benchmark, he wants to ensure that his hard work is worth it and fair.

I worked so hard to get 100 points. And you, a poor student, can score 100 points as long as you spend money to copy the answers of another honor student. I don't care if that honor student doesn't report you, and her interests are not harmed, but for my diligence, this is unfair to my interests. So in his values, he knows that the world itself is unfair, and he also accepts and is willing to share the worries of his family. But he needs to maintain the peace of his inner world, because this is something that belongs to him alone.

This role is actually not easy to play, and as Li Xiang re-creates the script, he also understands that he took it for granted that Pony's acting skills are not enough to control the role of Bank. So what lies ahead is a question that must be solved, who to find to play the role of Banker?

This actor can't be old first, at least 23 years old or older, and he also needs a certain amount of acting skills, and there are not many people to choose from. Needless to say, HK's actors have a talent gap in themselves. Even if there is, with Li Xiang's character, he will never use it, if it weren't for the fact that the HK mainland co-production would be easier to pass the review, Li Xiang would not have cooperated with people from HK. You can call him narrow-minded, you can call him chauvinistic, but it is also a means for Li to maintain his inner peace of mind.

23 years old and below, that is to say, at least after 85, to be honest, Li Xiang doesn't know much. Because I still watched a lot of foreign movies in my previous life, a limited number of movie cafes are not suitable for the role of Banker. So after Li Xiang and his party returned to the capital, Li Xiang shared his thoughts about finding an actor to play Banker, and Li Xiaoping.

Li Xiaoping gave several candidates, Li Xiang felt that they were not suitable, and the most outrageous one was to ask Bao Beier to play Banker, but Li Xiang was ugly rejected. Li Xiaoping ran out of ideas for a while, and finally simply proposed that Li Xiang conduct an audition, anyway, now Li Xiang's reputation has risen to a new level, because "Hurricane Rescue 2" once again swept the box office during the Spring Festival.

Originally, according to the normal trajectory, Dong Chou's "Slam Dunk" was the king during the Spring Festival, but he was not afraid of not knowing the goods, he was afraid of comparing the goods. "Hurricane Rescue 2" relied on the good reputation accumulated in the previous work, and firmly suppressed "Slam Dunk" from the beginning of its release. "Slam Dunk" is actually a fan-oriented movie, this kind of movie did not have such a name in the early days, and it was only after the release of Guo Da's "Little Times" series that fan-oriented movies were gradually mentioned by the mainstream media.

The main group of moviegoers of this kind of movie is fans of a certain star. Entering the new millennium, Jay Chou is undoubtedly the king of music, and his fans are all over the country, so the movies starring Jay Chou in those years have had good box office results. Even the national teacher couldn't ignore the popularity of Dong Chou, and invited him to participate in his "The City is Full of Golden Armor".

But fan-oriented movies have a big drawback, that is, the audience is limited, so the box office has its own ceiling. Most of these movies have a high box office when they are first released, and the most successful ones are often in the first few days, after which the box office performance will fall off a cliff, and in the final analysis, the number of fans limits the height of the box office.

And if a movie wants to be a box office hit, winning passers-by and audiences is the top priority, this kind of people are often attracted to the cinema by the good reputation of the movie, and they pay more attention to the quality of the movie itself, in this regard, "Hurricane Rescue 2" beats "Slam Dunk". As of February 13, when Li Xiang returned to the capital, that is, the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, "Hurricane Rescue 2" won a total of 53.27 million box office, successfully suppressed the 42.1 million of "Slam Dunk", ranking the box office champion during the Spring Festival. According to this trend, it is possible to break 150 million in the future, and Ding Sheng has completely created a reputation in the industry this time.

We people actually know that sequels are good to make money, but we don't have any good series in our hands. So the fiber optics were ready to strike while the iron was hot, and let Ding Sheng continue to guide "Hurricane Rescue 3", but Li Xiang and Ding Sheng both vetoed this proposal. Ding Sheng is because of his script "Tough Guy", the eldest brother Cheng is the thread, he has the grace to Ding Sheng, and he has to repay the love of the eldest brother Cheng in a reasonable way. Li Xiang felt that it was too hasty, and the third part, as the finale, could be crafted meticulously to maintain the reputation of this IP, and whether it was a remake or a TV series in the future, it had the potential to sell well.

···

Li Xiang has made a golden sign in the circle through the two films he directed and one of the films he produces, and he knows that his movies will be big sellers, and he especially likes to use outdated or young actors. So when Li Xiang auditioned for the leading actor of his new film, as soon as the news came out, major brokerage companies or film companies that operate actors' brokerage contracts sent the information of their actors to the official mailbox of Feixiang Studio.

Li Xiang looked at these materials and screened his favorite audition candidates, and those who offered to meet all the needs of the director were ruthlessly eliminated by Li Xiang. Lao Tzu is a straight man, not a double plug! There is a lot of information, and Li Xiang watched it for a day or two before he circled a few people who finally auditioned: Huang Xuan, Zhai Tianlin, Zheng Kai, and Jing Boran.

Jing Boran was the champion of "Come on Good Boy" in 07, and before the finals, he was signed into the Huayi brothers and formed the "BOBO" combination with Fu Xinbo. Zheng Kai is the little prince of advertising, and Hua Yi also signed him in early. These two people are Hua Yi's people, and if they don't let them audition and be eliminated, it will offend Hua Yi too much. Although Li Xiang is not very afraid of Hua Yi, no one will make enemies for no reason, and if he is not satisfied with the audition, he will be eliminated, presumably Hua Yi will not say anything.

Li Xiang's main entanglement is still on Huang Xuan and Zhai Tianlin, these two are actors he likes very much, when he saw Huang Xuan's information, Li Xiang secretly scolded himself for forgetting this old man. When Brother Xuan'er was 17 years old, he dominated the screen at the end of the year, "The Legend of the Demon Cat" directed by Brother Kai and "Fanghua" directed by Xiaogang, the male number one is him, and there is also the TV series "The Legend of Kyushu Sea Shepherd", which is adapted from the popular IP, and the limelight is unique for a while.

As for Zhai Tianlin, although he has not appeared in many movies, the most famous is Wu Baige's "Taiping Wheel", but this gentleman is a real powerful actor. Yang Xiu in "Military Alliance" and Bai Xiaowen in "White Deer Plain" were all vividly interpreted by him.

Who to choose, or the day after tomorrow when the audition, let's see how many people are at their current level.
