Chapter 246: The Poetry Girl of the Circle

Two days later, Zhao Wei, Zhou Xun, and Cheng Xiaodong came to DreamWorks.

After reading the script, Zhao Wei and Zhou Xun agreed to act, and also agreed to the request for action training.

Zhou Xun plays Xiao Wei, the silver fox of Jiuxiao, who decides to find a human heart and become a human.

She took Princess Jing as her target, and skillfully used the princess's appearance and the subtle love between the princess and Huo Xin, and made the princess accept her request to change her skin step by step.

Zhao Wei plays the role of Princess Jing of the Han Dynasty, who became the ugliest girl in the world after being broken by Xiong.

She did not hesitate to change her heart and skin to achieve the company of Huo Xin, and in the end, her efforts paid off, Xiao Wei became one with her, and her appearance was restored.

In her world, love is higher than life.

In fact, these two characters are both complex roles, and the inner entanglements in them require profound acting skills to be shown.

Wang Meng is looking for such a top actor this time, it is nothing more than to fancy the acting skills of the two, Zhou Xun needless to say, there are too many words of praise.

Zhao Wei is not bad, especially in recent years, after getting rid of the image of Xiaoyanzi, her acting skills have been improving day by day, and now she has reached a very superb period.

Zhou Gongzi must know that this role is difficult to play, and it is even more difficult to be accepted by the audience if it is to be successfully played. In fact, my understanding of Xiao Wei can be summed up in one sentence - I turned the whole world upside down, just to correct your reflection...... But why can't I get your love?"

As a director, Wang Meng has the obligation to explain the meaning of the role to the actor and how to express it.

["The phrase "shemales have different paths, there are ancient times, but in fact, the implication is even simpler, it can be said to be the view of the portal. Presumably, the ancients also used such a story rendering to tell their dissatisfaction!

…… Doomed to fight for it if it doesn't reach it, or even give up everything, you can't say you're a fool, and you can't say you're smart!

This kind of thing, which has two answers, is not the easiest to show!? Just like the setting of this character, you can't be together, you have to show it through deduction.

After that, the audience will feel unrealistic, and light, and there is nothing to think about......

In fact, the ending seems to be very poignant, and it is also very satisfying, the friendship between Xiao Wei and Princess Jing, this kind of friendship of frank and mutual trust, I think it is better than the love-hate entanglement between her and Huo Xin, I don't know what you think? ”】

Wang Meng said to the two.

In fact, this drama is supported by the three of them, as long as the three of them perform well, it will be half the success.

"Director Wang means that we should grasp the scale and not go too far. Can't it be too child's play, it seems perfunctory? Zhou Xun asked.

"Yes, in fact, according to the thinking of the Chinese people, we can be a little more complicated, even a little more sadistic. But I can tell the two of you that I plan to release this movie abroad, so as long as the emotional scenes in it are shown and everyone understands, there is no need to hide it too deeply, and there is no need to show it too complicated. Do you understand? ”

Zhao Wei sighed and said, "I see! It is nothing more than Director Wang's meaning to say that to control the scale, there is no need to be too subtle, and the place where it is warm is warm, simple and clear. It's not the way we used to express ourselves in domestic movies, right? ”

"Yes, that's it, it's too subtle and obscure, foreigners can't understand it, it's just a simple warmness. It's not that I don't trust your acting skills, I don't trust the two of you, there aren't many people in China who can be trusted. I just want to say that our drama is slightly different from the domestic one, and I hope you will pay more attention to this and try to show it in a simple and clear way. ”

Wang Meng said again: "To be honest, maybe this kind of performance will not let you win the award, but it can let me get the box office, I hope you can understand this." ”

As soon as Wang Meng said this, the two understood, which was nothing more than saying that this drama is the exterior of Chinese elements, but the core is half of the European and American kernel and half of the domestic kernel.

To put it simply, I want to please both sides, and domestic fans don't have scolding, they don't feel profound.

And foreign fans just need to see it clearly, and just get it at the box office.

"Director Wang, Wang Meng understands. You can rest assured that as an actor, it is certain to obey the director's arrangement, and we understand this. Zhao Wei said.

"That's good, thanks for the support. Actually, when I say this, I don't mean that I don't need acting skills, but it's not easy to integrate the acting skills that can only be shown in the previous several into one or even two. Again, control the scale. Wang Meng advised.

What he meant just now was nothing more than to say that this drama is different, different from the kind of love entanglement films in China, this one needs to be simple and clear, and there is no need to act too deep and entangled.

But -- it's not that you don't have to perform with your heart, but you have to be attentive, it's just that the form of the performance has changed.

After the three discussed for a while, determined the next salary and the time for filming, as well as some things that needed to be cooperated, Zhao Wei and Zhou Xun left temporarily.

As for the movement training, when the time comes, contact the two again.

Before leaving, Zhou Xun walked behind, and Wang Meng asked, "Are you okay lately?" ”

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "It's still like that, it's good." ”

Actually, Wang Meng has no other ideas, nothing more than the relationship with the two kings that was exposed before, and the changes after the Grand Slam.

However, since Zhou Xun didn't say it, Wang Meng's obligation as a friend was fulfilled, so he didn't ask again.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Meng met Cheng Xiaodong.

A series of discussions were held.

"What does Director Wang mean - hard bridges and hard horses, but they do not lose the beauty of Chinese quintessential kung fu?" Cheng Xiaodong asked.

"Yes, after all, it's not a kung fu movie, it's a fantasy theme, and it should be elegant and hard."

"This is no problem, I have encountered such a situation before, such a situation is the case with "Shu Mountain" and "Smiling Proud Jianghu" directed by Tsui Hark, I understand, I can do it well."

Then the two signed a contract, and Cheng Xiaodong also promised to bring people over in a few days to conduct simple training for the actors, and strive to run in well during the New Year.

Come over as soon as possible after the New Year and participate in the start of filming.

After these people were contacted, Wang Meng was relieved.

Including the expert group of Shangju and Fudan, Ye Jintian, Tan Dun and other people, all signed contracts.

The rest of the supporting roles are easy to say.

Whereas......

The two main supporting actors, Liu Shishi and Feng Shaofeng, were pleasantly surprised.

Liu Shishi felt very bad about Wang Meng at the premiere of "You at the Same Table" some time ago.

At that time, I thought that Wang Meng was perfunctory to her, so she left her contact information and left.

Liu Shishi thought that maybe the business card in Wang Meng's hand was lost in a blink of an eye.

But...... Unexpectedly, Wu Juan's phone call made her cry with joy.

When I heard Wu Juan say that Wang Mengmeng signed her into the dream factory, Liu Shishi was also drunk by herself.

DreamWorks ......

For reasons of secrecy, Wang Meng did not say for the time being who will star in "Painted Skin" among the artists within the company.

But...... Everyone knows that the starring role may not be able to fall, but a few supporting roles are still okay.

For such a big production, a magic film that is known to everyone before it officially starts, even a supporting role is better than the protagonist of some movies.

Liu Shishi carefully knocked on the door of Wang Meng's office.

Curious? The boss I haven't seen since the premiere, what are you looking for?

"Director Wang, I'm here, ...... you?" Liu Shishi looked very cramped.

Because Wang Mengzheng looked at her carefully, he nodded from time to time to express satisfaction.

In fact, Wang Meng is looking at whether today's poetry is suitable or not.

The finch in "Painted Skin" is a quirky, silly and cunning character, which seems to be a good match for Liu Shishi.

"Sit down. To make a long story short, I asked you for a role that I wanted you to play, and I think you are a good fit. What do you think of having the kind of quality I need? Wang Mengdao.

When Liu Shishi heard it, she said in her heart; What else can I do, any role can be, I'm not Zhou Xun, as long as it's not a special role, it's okay.

But he said: "Director Wang, you have the final say." ”

Liu Shishi is very smart and knows that Wang Meng doesn't want to listen to her tirade, and just wants to see her attitude.

As for Wang Meng saying that there is a role, Liu Shishi doesn't know what role. I just heard that next year's DreamWorks will have several films and television to shoot.

Liu Shishi thought to herself - it should be Wang Peng's TV series, right?

"Well, there is an important supporting actress in my new film "Painted Skin", there are a lot of scenes with Zhou Xun, I think your temperament is very suitable, this is the script, you take it back and take a good look, as expected, filming will officially start in March next year, so prepare more during this time."

After speaking, Wang Meng gave her the script.

And Liu Shishi is a little dumbfounded, it seems that she is a supporting role in "Painted Skin", did you hear it wrong.

didn't dare to ask deeply, and after taking the script, he seemed at a loss.

"Yes, you are very steady, keep it up, you can go out if it's okay." Wang Meng was still very surprised, it seems that she underestimated the future poems, for her at this moment, it is very good to be able to stay calm when she receives such a role.

"Then Director Wang, I'll go first." Liu Shishi was very confused, and her head was mushy.

After walking out of Wang Meng's office, her agent Sun Jing hurriedly greeted her.

"Shishi, what is the boss looking for you?" Sun Jing was the agent that Wu Juan found when DreamWorks expanded for the first time this year.

After the training some time ago, he officially began to perform the work of an agent, and its artist was Liu Shishi.

Some time ago, Sun Jing was still very depressed, why did she pick up a newcomer by herself?

Although he is a little famous and has starred in several TV series, he is far from all the artists in DreamWorks.

And the colleagues who trained with him have all taken over the old artists, and even one has become Tang Yan's agent.

The current Tang Yan is called a fire, "Goddess of Youth", "The Most Beautiful School Flower", "First First Love" and many other titles. With "You at the Same Table", Tang Yan has been famous all over the country for a month, you say that it is not amazing.

If it weren't for the director Wang Meng and the starring role being Wang Meng, Tang Yan would have benefited the most from "You at the Same Table".

"I don't know, I'm still confused? Director Wang said that there was a role for me, saying that my temperament matched the role, and then gave me the script and called me out. Liu Shishi replied.

"Give you the character, really?" Sun Jing said in surprise.

"yes, you read the script for me."

"Then, what role, is it a TV series character directed by Wang Peng, is it the starring role?" Sun Jing took the script and asked.

"I ...... I......! Don't say it, I was very nervous just now, I didn't listen to the work that Director Wang said, and I came out when I gave me the script. Liu Shishi said.

He asked again: "Will Director Wang be dissatisfied with me?" ”

"What do you say?"

Liu Shishi complained there by herself, and found that the agent Sun Jing ignored herself, why did she turn her head to look at her?

only to find ......
