"Dad Zhou, where are we going to play today?" Zhou Mo took Zhao Qiqi and Zhao Pingping out of the taxi, led one by one, and walked into the gate of the film and television base, Zhao Qiqi raised his head and asked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Today is not playing, today you Dad Zhou and I are here to work, where do you get the money to buy milk powder with you if you don't work. Zhou Mo said with a smile, "Don't run around later, have fun on the side, if it's finished early, I'll take you to play." β
"Got it. The two little girls said in unison, and Zhao Pingping said, "Dad Zhou, but we don't drink milk powder anymore." β

"Boss Zhou, you're here, I'm the assistant director of the Chibi crew, and Director Zhang asked me to pick you up. As soon as Zhou Mo walked into the door of the film and television base, a person greeted him, this person had been to a book and a world store with Zhang Wencheng, and he was shocked by Zhou Mo, and now when he saw Zhou Mo, there was a bit of star-chasing fanaticism in his eyes.
"I'm tired. Zhou Mo shook hands with him flatly, and got into his battery car, this film and television base is very large, foreign vehicles cannot enter and exit casually, this battery car is a means of transportation.
The assistant director was very curious about why Zhou Mo came to the audition with two children, but seeing Zhou Mo bowing his head and teasing the children, the assistant director knew that Zhou Mo didn't want to talk to him more, so he didn't force a conversation, but concentrated on driving.
Ten minutes later, Zhou Mo saw Zhang Wencheng, dressed as a director and sitting behind the camera monitor with a small speaker in his hand.
"Boss Xiao Zhou is here, the time is just right, and I will ask the costumer to change your costume for you, just try the lens, don't be nervous. Zhang Wencheng said with a smile, "I'll ask the assistant director to get you a pass when I go back, and next time you can drive in by yourself." β
"Director Zhang just calls me Xiao Zhou, I'm going to eat with you now. Zhou Mo said with a smile, "I don't need a pass, and I don't have a car." β
"No car?" Zhang Wencheng was stunned for a moment, and didn't ask much, "This isβ"
"The children at home, no one takes care of them, so I brought them here, Director Zhang don't worry, they are very obedient and won't trouble you. Zhou Mo explained.
"Grandpa, we're not going to mess around. Zhao Qiqi and Zhao Pingping said in unison.
There was a kind laugh around, Zhang Wencheng is in his fifties, in the current society, he is definitely not old, this grandfather's title is the first time someone has called it so loudly.
"Am I so old?" Zhang Wencheng smiled bitterly and touched his beard, and beckoned a female staff member to come over, "When Xiao Zhou auditions later, you can take care of the two of them." β
Zhang Wencheng's Chibi was filmed from the battle of Changbanpo, and the role of Zhao Zilong is definitely the top priority, not the leading actor, at least the third male lead, Zhang Wencheng originally intended to let Hou Dunwu play, not only because of his relationship with Hou Dunwu, but because Hou Dunwu is indeed the top martial arts star in China, and he has this strength.
If it weren't for the fact that Hou Dunwu had left a bad impression on the main investor Ren Zhenglin, and Zhang Wencheng found that Zhou Mo was more suitable for Zhao Zilong's image than Hou Dunwu, Zhang Wencheng would not have decided to replace Hou Dunwu.
Zhang Wencheng made this decision, and the other staff members of the crew had opinions, after all, for such an important role, it was very dangerous to find an actor who had never heard of it before, not to mention Hou Dunwu's character, at least the box office appeal was still good.
"Director, do you want to go directly to the character? Don't you try your acting skills first?" a producer said, he didn't deliberately make it difficult, but normal casting, they all start with acting skills, and only after passing the acting skills will they get into the characters, except for big stars, of course.
"No need, let's go straight to the characters, costumes, makeup! Zhang Wencheng waved his hand and said, he is not one of those small directors who is not well-known, he is controlled by the producer everywhere, and he has the greatest say in Zhang Wencheng's crew.
The producer's face was a little unpleasant, and he was not even very friendly to Zhou Mo.
Zhou Mo didn't care so much, he went to change clothes with the costume master, the so-called clothes are actually a set of silver-white armor, compared to the real armor of the Three Kingdoms era, the degree of reduction is five or six, this armor is a prop, much lighter than the real armor, Zhou Mo didn't use someone else's hand, he put on the armor himself.
Zhou Mo's original complexion was slightly darkened, but last night he broke through the realm again in the Three Kingdoms realm, and his skin changed back again, crystal clear, like fine porcelain, at this time, the armor on the body, silver armor and red silk, more and more set off his lips and teeth, his face was like a crown of jade, what a handsome young general!
The makeup artist watched it for a long time, and was stunned to think that Zhou Mo didn't need makeup, he could go directly to the camera, no matter how good the cosmetics were, it was counterproductive to his skin, the makeup artist had never seen such good skin, much better than the skin of those female stars, and she almost couldn't help but ask Zhou Mo how to maintain his skin.
"Director Zhang, I'm not questioning your decision, but replacing Hou Dunwu with a little-known person is very risky. Outside the locker room, the producer complained to Zhang Wencheng while looking at the information of other actors, they invest in movies, and they pay more attention to the box office, Hou Dunwu's fame is obviously the box office guarantee, Zhou Mo?
"I said Lao Tao, don't be entangled, my eyes are not blind, how should I choose the role, are you professional or mine?" Zhang Wencheng said, at this moment, Zhou Mo had already walked out of the dressing room.
Zhang Wencheng's eyes lit up, "That's how it feels, this is the image that Zhao Zilong should have!"
The producer looked over and saw a silver-armored general, standing with a gun, the sun shining on him, the producer seemed to hear the sound of people and horses roaring, and for a while, he was also stunned.
Zhou Mo is a person who has really been on the battlefield, wearing armor and holding a gun, he naturally brings out the temperament of a general, this kind of temperament, people who have not been on the ancient battlefield, can not have it no matter what, he doesn't need to act, he has already won by three points, not to mention, Zhou Mo is a person who has just learned the skills of an actor!
"I am Changshan Zhao Zilong!" From beginning to end, Zhou Mo only said this line, and then symbolically posed a few times, Zhang Wencheng had already made a decision, "OK, Xiao Zhou, welcome to join our crew, this role is simply yours!"
After seeing Zhou Mo wearing armor and holding a gun, the producer had nothing to say, this image is indeed stronger than Hou Dunwu, and he even has an idea in his heart, if Zhang Wencheng decides to praise this young man, this young man definitely has the potential to be a big hit.
"It was a pleasure to work with. Zhou Mo said with a smile, "Director Zhang, I have a few proposals about the script, we can discuss it." "Zhou Mo has a lazy personality, but when he really does one thing, he will do one thing well, since he has decided to accept this role, he will play this role well with his heart, Zhao Zilong's lines in the script, Zhou Mo found a few unreasonable places, which was discussed with Zhang Wencheng.
