After several deliberations and revisions to the script, Zuihou's version was finally determined, so the next question came, how to invite Li Xiaole's ideal actor.

Needless to say, the heroine is naturally not too difficult for the role of Liang Xiaoxiao, Sun Li can do it with some training, and the real difficulty lies in the two male roles.

After the adaptation, Li Xiangshan is completely customized according to Zhang Guoquan, Sun Honglei is no longer in consideration, as for Qin Fen, all Chinese actors have gone through it, and only Ge You can play it well, there is no doubt.

At this stage, Ge You is in the middle of the people's hearts, and there is no mainland actor whose reputation can be compared with him, and Uncle Ge is extremely picky about his works, and would rather not act, and definitely not accept Haode plays to smash his own signboard, and in recent years, he has only accepted Feng Xiaogang's movies.

Although he is often compared with Feng Xiaogang in the media, Li Xiaole also knows that after all, he is a fledgling, and the reputation of Feng Xiaogang, the king of the box office, is more than a star and a half, and it is very doubtful whether he can impress Ge You by relying on himself and this script of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", after all, it is also the same urban comedy theme, and there is nothing new for Ge You.

If Zhang Guorong is willing to serve as the second male lead, he will have much more confidence to talk to Ge You again, but without determining Ge You's starring role, he asked Zhang Guorong to play Li Xiangshan, who has not played many roles, and Li Xiaole is worried that Zhang Guorong has doubts here.

Li Xiaole leaned on the bench, his eyes looked at the ceiling, and he began to wonder what to do, this was also the first time he invited such a big-name actor.

Of course, he himself knows that the script is very good, and the shooting effect will definitely be better than the original version, not worse, even at present, the box office of more than 100 million is almost certain.

But in Ge You, Zhang Guorong may look different, a well-known director comes to the door with a good notebook, this kind of thing is just afraid that it is no more ordinary in their eyes.

One of these two filmed "Alive" under Zhang Yimou, and the other is the protagonist of "Farewell My Concubine" directed by Chen Kaige, and they are both Wang Jiawei and Feng Xiaogang's queen actors, will they promise themselves?

Needless to say, Ge You, a great artist, even if you put it on shijie, is one of the top and greatest actors.

Zhang Guorong is of course an easy breakthrough, he already has the intention to star in his own movie, but such a big actor must think that he wants him to be the leading actor, if it is a supporting role, he is afraid that he will hesitate.

And who is Zhang Guorong? The younger generation may not know each other, but in the Chinese literary and artistic circle, the weight of these three words alone is probably unimaginable to ordinary people, and it is extremely rare in the Chinese entertainment industry to really add the word "superstar" to the title.

In the golden age of Hong Kong's literary and artistic industry 20 years ago, countless stars emerged that are still standing today, such as the four kings of the music industry, such as the wireless five tigers in the film and television industry, etc.

can really be called a superstar, but there are no more than 5 people, and Zhang Guorong is one of them.

Ordinary people will be curious, and there are no specific regulations, how to divide this level?

In fact, in the literary and artistic world, how to classify is very simple, the lowest level is actors, singers and other titles, such as those unnamed supporting roles in TVB, or people who have released one or two records, can be called singers and actors.

Entertainers who can really be the protagonists on TV, have their own masterpieces, and are called by everyone, can be called "stars", such as Ouyang Zhenhua of Wireless and Li Keqin who sings "Red Sun", they are singers and movie stars.

Who can be called a star? There is an insurmountable gap between this title and the previous singers and movie stars.

Singers or movie stars, for three or five years, there have been new representatives, always active in the front line, over time, have their own fixed fan base, even if they occasionally make one or two bad movies, they can sell well, and even people in society who don't watch TV and don't like to listen to songs know him, this person is barely worthy of the word star.

And look at what a generation of superstars is, this note is not a simple sentence to express, take a look at Zhang Guorong's resume.

He has released nearly 30 albums as a singer, and in the 80s, he and Alan Tam were known as the "peerless double pride" in the Hong Kong music scene, and he and Alan Tam held nearly 30 concerts in the same city in Hong Kong in a row, and the record of selling out tickets is only the king of pop Michael Jackson in front of them on this planet.

In that enthusiastic 80s, all the young people in China from the south to the north would sing his Cantonese songs, and after his death, the music awards collectives in South Korea and Japan held his commemorative performances, and this scene did not reappear until the death of Michael Jackson.

He went to make movies and starred in "The True Color of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" in commercial films, it can be said that as long as there are Chinese corners in Shijie, they have seen his movies.

Artistically, "The True Story of A Fei" was the first place in the "Top Ten Hong Kong Films" by the Hong Kong Film Society, and "Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d'Or, the pinnacle of Shijie films.

He was brilliant during his lifetime, and still shining after his death, all Asians can see his face and call out the words "Zhang Guorong", ten years after his death, there is still a younger generation crazy about him, movies and songs from decades ago are still on sale, and even his death day can still become news in the media every year.

What is a superstar, this is called a superstar!

Thinking of this, Li Xiaole suddenly felt that it was really absurd to let Zhang Guorong play the second male lead, maybe he was too arrogant?

Many things are easy to say, but when it comes to doing it, in the face of these childhood idols, these film and television people who really stand at the top, Li Xiaole still feels a little inferior.

Of course, this inferiority complex is not a lack of confidence in the unknown, on the contrary, but that he really understands how great these film and television people are, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to invite them, but is worried about whether he can use them to make qualified works, and award them with the halo of dazzling titles to add a dazzling brilliance.

Just like "Crazy Stone" and "Soldier Assault", they are not first-line stars, as long as the results are a little outstanding, everyone will think that the director is very powerful.

But what if a movie led by Ge You and Zhang Guorong? If the box office is less than 50 million, it will be a failure in the eyes of others!

No matter how directly touted by the outside world, he himself knows that he is just an immature director who walks in the footsteps of his predecessors...... Whether it can really control an actor-level movie is still unknown.

But this thought was just a flash, Li Xiaole looked at the news pages about himself on the computer, looked at the reflection of his sad face on the screen, and suddenly laughed, damn ~ After filming so many scenes, he is no longer the martial arts stand-in who was messing around at the bottom, why are you still so afraid of failure.

I'm a director, I'm the real master in front of the work, no matter what kind of actor or star you are, no matter how big the bowl is, as long as you come to my crew, you're all my actors, and you have to be obedient to me.

I don't want to think so much, let's talk about this Guorong first, but this must be a little careful.

Li Xiaole pondered Zhang Guorong's current psychological state in his heart, he was still immersed in the gray psychology of suicide attempts, Li Xiangshan, the role of holding a funeral for himself, is very peculiar and interesting, and can definitely cater to Zhang Guorong's preferences, I believe he will definitely like it after reading the script.

But of course I can't tell Zhang Guorong: "Brother~ Come to make my movie, the second male number is tailor-made for you~ I guarantee you like it~"

In the eyes of an actor of Zhang Guorong's level, this kind of remark is simply an insult! Is the male number two still tailor-made? Then I still want Zhou Yan to play a tailor-made role and be my little brother's supporting role!!

After being in the circle for so long, Li Xiaole understands a truth, some modest concessions can only be said by the actors themselves, and the directors and producers must not say it.

Let's use some tricks, Li Xiaole thought of this, so he wrote an email to Zhang Guorong's agent and sent it over, the email indicated that he wanted Zhang Guorong to play the protagonist Qin Fen, without mentioning the word Ge You.

First of all, let Zhang Guorong have the motivation to read the script with his intentions, and then talk about other things...... As for whether Zhang Guorong will take the bait and offer to play Li Xiangshan, it can only depend on God's arrangement......

The time unconsciously came to July 30th, that is, at eight o'clock in the evening of the day before the August 1st Army Day, the drama "Soldier Assault" was composed of guests at the CCTV party, and all the crew members participated in the Army Day party held in the Great Hall of the People.

At the gala, the things that surprised all the media happened one after another, all about "Soldier Assault".

Comrade Zhao Xiannian, director of CCTV 7, announced that in next month's "Military Documentary" column, a propaganda film called "Glory of Joining the Army" will be used, which adopts the classic clips from "Soldier Assault".

projected on the curtain of the party, this recruitment propaganda film was officially broadcast, mainly around the story of Xu Sanduo's joining the army, like a personal biographical short film, of course, the classic lines in the film did not fall, "Don't abandon, don't give up", "As long as today is better than yesterday, isn't this hope"......

Although the length is only 31 seconds, it makes the soldiers in the audience enthusiastic. At the end of the short film, the subtitle "Do you want to be a soldier like Xu Sanduo", and then, I saw Xu Sanduo showing his big white teeth and smiling back, reflecting the 4 big words "Glory of joining the army".

You must know that this is the first time that CCTV recruitment advertisements have used film and television drama clips!!

The excited station director also held the microphone on the stage and announced loudly: "Comrades, what I want to tell you is that because of the cultural effect brought about by the hit of "Soldier Assault", the volunteer application rate of military academies across the country has increased by more than 20 percent, so the average score of military academies is 13.5 points higher than in previous years.
