Chapter 701: Headache Casting
There seems to be nothing to do this time except for the awards, Wang Yu and his entourage flew directly to Seattle by plane, not to Los Angeles, although there is Hollywood there, Wang Yu still has something to deal with, that is, the casting problem that Lin Tingcheng said, it is rare that he is interested this time, Anna and they came to the headquarters of Shennong Group in Seattle with him, and the film production department helped here.
It's not just about making movies, but also about TV series and programs, it can be said that the development is very good, the big boss is coming, and it can be said that Wang Yu, who has never been in charge of things, is actually here! The relevant departments have made preparations, not only the film production department, but also other departments, but this time Wang Yu brought all the small objects he made when he came, which can be said to make many people's eyes hot and envious.
Not to mention Yang Zhenxia and them, even Lin Tingcheng is very obsessed, so that Wang Yu has time to make one for her in the future, Wang Yu agreed, when he came to the headquarters, someone had already come to receive him, Wang Yu just took advantage of this time to have a meeting, not far from Christmas, just sent gifts in advance, it can be said that Wang Yu's personal gift is very sincere, and the employees also felt it and thanked him for his generosity.
It's not because of gifts and bonuses, as well as car rewards, this is very normal, Wang Yu didn't participate too much, and came directly to the film production department, the head here has met Wang Yu, it's rare for the big boss to come once, it's not that Wang Yu doesn't care about them, he knows that the boss doesn't want to have too many troubles, but this time it is estimated that it is because of the casting of weapons movies.
It has been notified, and now there are many stars who come here to apply for roles, all of them are big stars from China, even if the big stars here in Hollywood want to play roles, they have to come in person, and now the film production department of Shennong Group is very cowhide, and the development is very good, not to mention the abundant funds, some of the main movies are too popular, and many people are popular, not to mention TV series.
Even some TV station signed actors wanted to sign to Shennong Group, but they didn't succeed, and only one signed a contract and that was Kavize! Whether it is in terms of TV series or movies, Shennong Group does not say that it is tilted too much, but first of all, it is to consider him, because Wang Yu knows about his affairs, so he naturally takes care of it, of course, everything is subject to Kavize's ideas and there will be no interference.
However, the situation of Shennong Group and Li Ruoshi's cooperative company in China is different, there are many people who want to sign a contract with a domestic company and want to go to Hollywood to work hard, and even some famous stars are the same, but they are all rejected one by one, not that Li Ruoshi is a big name, but that it is not impossible to pursue a bigger sky to such an extent, but that they are not qualified, in Wang Yu's words, I don't believe it.
The biggest difference between domestic big stars and foreign big stars is that their professional attitude and professional attitude can't catch up with others, it's not just hard work and filming, and some aspects are completely incomparable, and Li Ruoshi's company obviously signed some little people who have just debuted or come out of school will not sign big stars, and they are developing at home and abroad, and now the situation is very good! So a lot of people are red-eyed.
But there are a lot of people who come to apply for jobs today, not only domestic but also domestic ones, Peter's weapon movie has a lot of magical elements, indispensable Chinese and Western combinations, of course, it is rare for Wang Yu to go out in person, Anderson has insights in this regard, he is also involved, Lin Chengcheng is the same, the three of them cast together, and many people greeted him with a smile when they entered the conference room.
Knowing that his boss won the award, of course he was happy, and of course he also knew his ability to cause trouble, Wang Yu was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly asked the actor to prepare, because Peter provided some scripts, all of which were written down by Wang Yu, and Peter's team revised them, and they have come out, take out some character lines to apply, and see who performs well, Wang Yu also corrected his attitude.
One hundred and two percent of the attitude came, did not appear at the scene of the application, but behind the black glass in the back, I saw that there were three people to apply, the weapon movie is not a or a trilogy, but a series, Peter saw this, Lin Tingcheng also saw it, because this series of movies has a very important role in promoting Chinese culture.
Although it is a combination of Chinese and Western, the main thing is still Chinese, and there are also Western elements, but very few, looking at the acting skills of the actors, Wang Yu is very depressed, they have fallen into the role, Wang Yu, who is sitting behind the black glass, is very satisfied, "It's okay, but I don't know what the actual effect is." "It's okay to look at, but the actual shooting effect is completely different, and it will be troublesome to change it temporarily if it doesn't work at that time.
"I didn't think you'd be quite good." Lin Tingcheng praised, Wang Yu was a little embarrassed, "No way, I have seen too much, many cases are different, now it looks very good, but the shooting is different, and during the filming, we used Peter's shooting method, I also agreed, and added a five-part series!" It is simply impossible to spare time for a year or two to shoot anything else. ”
"So you have to be cautious, but I'm very willing to use those new actors, I'll call Li Ruoshi later, and Anderson, you go and call the Actors Association." After listening to it, Anderson said that he understood, but Lin Allure was different, and there was no fluctuation in his heart when he heard Li Ruoshi's three words, but Wang Yu thought of her at this time It was not unreasonable, her company!
Li Ruoshi and Selina's company is very popular, only they have new actors there, and they are also responsible for teaching and training, there will be no negative news, these have already been checked, and they refuse plastic surgery! In addition, there is no prohibition on personal issues such as the love of artists and stars in terms of contracts, and even encourages its artists to fall in love, because this makes people grow up quickly.
Lin Tingcheng knew these news, and he couldn't imagine that the company that Wang Yu and Li Ruoshi cooperated with was really different, so he looked back at him, "Since you want to shoot a five-part series, you must have a spare actor in terms of actors, because a protagonist cannot exist forever." "Actually, this movie wants Wang Yu to star, but the supporting role has to be found well, in fact, Wang Yu and Peter talk about this problem, which is about the role.
If there is no protagonist, it will be carried out in the story, the weapon story must attract many people, and the information provided by Wang Yu, there is no doubt that it is too difficult to find the protagonist, which is why it is very difficult to adapt it later, as soon as this idea came out, Peter agreed, the genius idea, very good, Wang Yu's acting skills don't have to worry, no matter how you say it, it is no problem to appear in a two-step American drama.
After Lin Tingcheng learned of this idea, he agreed very much, and immediately agreed, and then looked at the actor role he applied for, Wang Yu already had an idea, and directly determined five people! It can be said that it is very good, although it is very jerky, but it needs such an effect, looking at Lin Tingcheng's puzzled eyes, he explained, "Actually, they are very jerky, three women and two men, but the filming process will grow." ”
It turns out that there is such a thing, the weapon movie is a big series, of course it will grow, Lin Tingcheng smiled, who said that Wang Yu is not smart? Those people were fooled by him, if he wasn't smart, there were no smart people in the world, it would be great, but Anderson said a problem, "Actually, it's okay to say that there is no protagonist, but your role should be more important, because no one can use weapons." ”
Especially when it comes to the problem of the bow, only Wang Yu can pull it away, not to mention other magical weapons, Anderson knows a lot about the magical weapon in his hand, Wang Yu nodded and agreed, and finally looked at the roles of more than ten actors, and finally determined three, a total of eight people, the last three are actors, very good, Wang Yu rushed out to meet them.
"Hello Mr. Wang." greeted him politely, they didn't expect Wang Yu to sit in the back and watch them perform, Wang Yu smiled, "Don't be nervous, do you have an agent?" If you have one, please call me to sign a contract, if not, we will arrange one here. It's just that all eight people shook their heads and said there was no agent! This made Wang Yu speechless, how did they come here without an agent?
In the end, Anderson explained that it was through the phone contact of the actors' union, it turned out that this was the case, Wang Yu understood, and those who were not selected did not leave, and the staff kept them, not that they were unqualified, but that Wang Yu had another arrangement, and clarified his doubts, "What arrangements do you have for them?" Wang Yu smiled mysteriously, "Of course, it's about some big villains." ”
The villain? Anderson was dumbfounded, "It turns out that you still have such thoughts, it's really good, if Peter knew it, he would be crazy" Wang Yu smiled and didn't say anything, "Don't worry, he will be satisfied." "The eliminated actors didn't expect that there would be a chance, and it was nothing to learn that they were villains, because they were professional actors, and it was impossible to let themselves choose, only the characters chose them, this is fate!
There are just some costumes here, Peter's team is ready, and Shennong Group is the same here, they have asked them to change into them, and they will be different immediately, and they will change clothes and take a group photo with the eight successful applicants, but Wang Yu doesn't know that this photo will make people crazy in the future, and eighteen actors and actresses were born in it! And the people in the photo have become best friends! It's enviable.
Of course, there is Wang Yu, but he didn't get involved, but went to eat, came to the staff restaurant of Shennong Group, and did not add more because the boss came, Wang Yu likes the staff meal very much, it is delicious, it can be said that the staff meal of Shennong Group is the most delicious, there is no one, Wang Yu was still thinking about casting when eating, because the choices just now are some supporting roles.
The real main role was not chosen, because Peter wanted to be chosen with Wang Yu, because Wang Yu's thoughts from time to time opened his eyes, but now Wang Yu has a headache, because he can't go back to the manor immediately after eating, but has to stay here in Seattle for casting work, this matter Peter threw it to him directly when he heard that he was involved, and asked him to help and see if there would be no problem.
Now it's impossible for him to be lazy, so he can only honestly participate in the casting work.
