"This book... In the office, Zhao Xiaojun looked at the script of "Borderless City" in his hand, sometimes frowning, sometimes stretching, and after a while, he spoke.

"What's the problem?" Listening to Zhao Xiaojun's words, there seemed to be some hesitation, but this is a rare thing, usually he writes a plan first, and will only consult him when he encounters problems, but this will be a little unconfident as soon as he gets the script, and he can't help but be a little surprised.

"There are too many actors needed for this film, and now the actors under the Golden Princess basically don't participate in our movies, and the range of options is much smaller." Zhao Xiaojun rubbed the script, thought about it, and said: "Moreover, there are too many child actors, and it is difficult to find children with acting skills." ”

After listening to Zhao Xiaojun's words, Xu Jing understood his worries.

Since "King Haibian", Princess Jin has withdrawn Liang Jiahui of its new art city and Cheng Kuian of Universal Pictures, and later snatched Li Jiaxin from the crew of Jiuzhou Company, and this beam has already been concluded. Among the many artists in Xiangjiang, the artists under the Golden Princess have the highest compatibility with the film style of Jiuzhou Company, but it makes Jiuzhou Company quite embarrassed, so that many movies that Xu Jing wants to make can only be put down temporarily.

And child actors have always been one of the three most difficult elements to shoot in film and television works, children's physical strength, energy, attention, prediction of the danger of action, etc., are full of too many uncontrollable factors, but this "Borderless City" suddenly requires dozens of children to participate, most of which are still difficult group scenes, no wonder Zhao Xiaojun will be so lacking.

"This time, we don't look for professional actors, just recruit extras directly in Kowloon Walled City." For Zhao Xiaojun's worries, but it is not a problem, Xu Jing never thought of finding a professional actor to play this movie from the beginning, if he was to find a professional actor to play, how could he restore the true appearance of the walled city? Let's go now.

"All amateur actors?" Zhao Xiaojun was a little stunned and said: "This is not a documentary, can an amateur actor shoot a sense of the camera?" ”

"It's not all amateur actors, and I still play the 'leading role' in it." Xu Jingdao: "Moreover, the style positioning of this film is more realistic, so amateur actors are more in line with the role building." ”

"Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as possible." Zhao Xiaojun said.

"Well, over there in the Kowloon Walled City, you can go to the security patrol to find a person named 'Sun Dahai', and he will assist you." Xu Jing thought for a while, and then said: "If you want to cast, leave it to Wu Zheng to do it, first select about 300 of them, slowly train them, and finally use whoever is suitable." ”

"Wu Zheng?" Zhao Xiaojun was surprised again, but he didn't quite understand Xu Jing's intentions.

"Hehe, didn't you find that the actors he recommended several times fit the image of the character?" Xu Jing smiled and said, "If he does a good job in casting this time, let him serve as the assistant director." ”

"Are you trying to train him to be a director? Hehe. Zhao Xiaojun also smiled: "However, this kid's head does turn fast, but he is a little ambitious." ”

"If he has that heart, that's fine." Xu Jing said: "Okay, you can get busy first, and I will go back to work." ”

"Hey, wait." Zhao Xiaojun stopped Xu Jing again and said: "The photographer may have to be changed, Bao Dexi mentioned before that he wanted to take a break for a while, he has already shot several movies this year, do you see if there is a photographer whose style is more in line with this film, I will contact you here." ”

"Hmm..." Xu Jing turned around, thought for a moment, and flashed several famous photographers in Xiangjiang in his mind, and the most favorite was Wang Jiawei's royal photographer Du Kefeng.

In "ZQ Forest", the handheld photography uses unique angles and shaking lenses to shoot the film with both a sense of scene and a unique sense of dreaminess, which is quite similar to "Borderless City".

"You go get in touch..." Just as Xu Jing was about to say the name of 'Duke Feng', he had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Xiaoxin, are they still playing street photography outside?" ”

"Yes... You wouldn't be thinking... Zhao Xiaojun said in surprise.

"Well, let them try it first, if it doesn't work, we'll hire someone later." Xu Jingdao: "In this way, first arrange a task for them, let each of them go to the Kowloon Walled City, and each of them will shoot a short film, there are no requirements, let them shoot whatever they want, and shoot how they want." ”

“。。。。”

Leaving Zhao Xiaojun's office, Xu Jing finally returned to the post-production of "King Haibian" again, but fortunately, many shots have already been handed over to the Hollywood team for production, so there is a lot of time to be busy with the new movie.

Although "King Haibian" is still in post-production, the release schedule Lin Jianguo has already been determined with Xinbao and Golden Harvest, and the schedule is also determined by "Family Carnival" of Xu's Pictures, a satellite company under Golden Harvest, on January 21 and January 28 respectively, that is, 8. The first three weeks and the first two weeks of the Lunar New Year in 9.

Interestingly, these two days are also the premieres of "The New Best Partner" and "Brave Heroes", which are co-screened by Golden Princess and Debao.

According to the original development trajectory, these two days were supposed to be "Family Carnival" and "New Best Partner" in the ring, but I didn't want to not only have more "Haibian King", but also stimulated "Righteous Heroes" in advance.

It is natural for Xu Jing to set the schedule of the two movies at these two points in time, Princess Jin's family has a big business, and she wants to take independence... Xu Jing had no intention of resisting the production company Liwei to stabilize people's hearts, but Princess Jin repeatedly targeted Jiuzhou Company but made him annoyed, and of course Xu Jing couldn't forgive it.

Speaking of which, when Xu Jing proposed to fight in the ring at the same time as Princess Jin and Debao, Jiahe and Xinbao did not agree, after all, this was an act of injuring the enemy and injuring eight hundred, but after Xu Jing proposed a possibility, Jiahe and Xinbao failed to withstand the temptation after all. Confused, like a shark that smelled blood, pounced.

Just when Xu Jing thought that he could focus on the post-production of "King Haibian" for a few days, Zhao Xiaojun interrupted Xu Jing again on the third day, because the audition of the actors of "Borderless City" hosted by Wu Zheng was completed, but this surprised him, this is not one or two actors, but hundreds, how long has it been? It's only two days!

"What's going on? How did it happen so quickly? "Could it be that Wu Zheng casually found some people to fill up? Xu Jing couldn't help but think secretly.

"Ahem, it's true that the selection is over, mainly because there is a special person in it." Zhao Xiaojun was a little ridiculous.

"Special people?" Xu Jing was surprised.
