The crew of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is non-stop, the filming progress is not stagnant, and as everyone enters the state, the speed is getting faster and faster. However, at the request of Zheng Long and Wang Shang, they still adhered to the attitude of excellence and did not rush the schedule.

However, the result of excellence is that the budget is not enough, but fortunately, Tang Zongshi Tang of Datang International is always generous enough, and the funds have increased again and again.

At present, half of the filming of this TV series has been completed, and it is expected that all filming will be completed on January 20, when the Spring Festival comes. When the time comes, while doing post-processing, the first few episodes will be broadcast at the same time, and I believe that it can be broadcast during the Spring Festival.

On December 20, 2001, the crew edited a TV series tidbits and put them on the Internet, which immediately aroused praise from countless netizens.

"The Legend of Zhen Huan" is hot again, and it is recognized and expected by more people.

Datang International is very optimistic about this drama, and after watching the first few episodes of the unfinished version, they are full of praise.

It just so happened that Mr. Tang of Datang International often likes Qing court dramas, and with a big hand, he directly contacted the national TV station, and wanted to broadcast it on the prime time of the national TV station.

Many local TV stations also rushed over when they heard the news, wanting to fight for the premiere rights of this TV series. After all, this drama has been hyped up before it starts, and now after continuous stills and other publicity, "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has begun to take root in the hearts of the people.

And when they saw the first few episodes, they were all impressed by the quality and sophistication of the TV series, and they were even more eager to get the premiere rights.

As soon as the crew heard these good news, they immediately boiled, and they worked harder to perform, making the quality of the TV series to a higher level.

Wang Shang was enjoying this good news, but he was also entangled in finding the school flower. In Wang Shang's plan, the candidate for this school girl will also play Shen Jiayi in "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" in the future.

Datang International Casting Hall.

Wang Shang and his temporary assistant looked at the actor in front of them who was running for the role of the school flower of "Old Boy" with a tangled expression.

Charming and sexy, heavy makeup, white legs in stockings, and the almost half-naked murder weapon, this is not to choose a school flower, but to a beauty pageant.

Wang Shang doesn't have a good impression of this kind of actor who doesn't understand the characteristics of the role, since he is here to run for the role of a middle school flower, he should have the appearance of a middle school flower. Youthfulness and purity are the characteristics that middle school flowers should have, and dressing like this is either stupid or too flexible.

Direct pass!

Subsequently, I interviewed more than a dozen, but I was not satisfied.

Wang Shang pinched his temples, and asked the temporary assistant next to him in distress, "Are these people today?" ”

Wang Shang's temporary assistant is the assistant temporarily assigned to him by Datang International, called Yu Bo, although he has little experience, he is diligent and studious.

Yu Bo had reverence for Wang Shang, the 'director' who was younger than him, and hurriedly replied when he heard Wang Shang's question: "Yes." ”

"It's basically this kind of actor during this time, it seems that we are taking the wrong route, we shouldn't sit here and choose, but we should go out and go to the campus to choose a better ......"

Yu Bo nodded again and again in agreement, these actors are all low-level actors who have experienced countless 'wind and frost', and they have long taken off the youthfulness and purity in the school, and looking for the school flower here is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

……

The next day, Yu Bo carried a briefcase and followed Wang Shang to the 13th High School of the Demon Capital like a mud leg. Wang Shang didn't stay on campus too much and went straight to the principal's office.

As for why I went to the principal, because I had to get the approval of the principal to go out to 'work' for a student.

Other than that...... Doesn't the principal know the beautiful students in his school best?

Wang Shang wittily used the name of Datang International to open the way and successfully met the principal of this school.

"Your name is Wang Shang?"

"That Wang Shang from the Modu Media Academy?"

"You're looking for a schoolgirl to be the heroine of your movie?" The principal's yellow eyes stared at Wang Shang's eyes tightly, calm and unusual, not knowing joy or anger.

Wang Shang nodded.

The principal immediately shouted with a slap in the face: "Get out!" ”

"......" Wang Shang didn't say a word, turned around and left with the aftermath.

Visiting the second middle school, the No. 4 High School in the Demon Capital, Wang Shang was blasted out again. It's really hard and embarrassing.

Wang Shang has already foreseen this situation, as a higher education institution that cultivates countless talents, the influence of Modu Media Academy will naturally be very large, and many leaders of primary, junior high and high schools will be affected by it.

Fortunately, the Magic Capital Media Academy is not a one-handed cover in the Magic Capital, and there are two higher film and television universities that balance each other. Peers are enemies, and there are naturally many contradictions between the three institutions of higher learning. With the checks and balances between them, Wang Shang is not afraid at all that there is no room for survival.

Wang Shang was not discouraged and continued to take the aftermath to other high schools.

Finally arrived at the eighth high school, the principal was called Liu Ming, and he did not directly blast Wang Shang out like other principals, but humbly guided Wang Shang.

Liu Ming is actually a fan of the Qing Palace, and during this time, he has heard a lot of news about "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and he is also very interested in this drama, so he has an inexplicable good impression of Wang Shang, the screenwriter.

Wang Shang also generously said the content of the script, but Principal Liu Ming liked it very much, and he was even more enthusiastic about entertaining Wang Shang, and agreed to Wang Shang's request to go to the school to shoot some movie clips on the spot.

Under the arrangement of Principal Liu Ming, Wang Shang went to several classes to see a few recognized high school flowers, but he was not very satisfied, and he was a little too young. Because in the later plot of "Old Boy", this school flower still has to play Bao Xiaobai's wife, and their image is estimated to be a little worse even if they wear makeup.

"Mr. Wang, isn't it okay?"

Wang Shang replied apologetically: "Principal, I'm sorry, I just watched it, and I still don't feel that way." ”

Principal Liu Ming waved his hand: "It's okay, let's continue to watch." ”

Soon, Principal Liu Ming took Wang Shang to the next class, the second (3) class of high school.

Principal Liu Ming jokingly said: "Mr. Wang, this is the last school flower, if not, there is really none." ”

Just in time for the class bell to ring, the students began to attend class.

Wang Shang had an idea and said, "Principal, I don't know if we can go in and listen to the class, I really want to go back to high school and be a student again." ”

The principal naturally did not agree, called the lecturer out, explained the intention, and smoothly turned Wang Shang and Yu Bo into students, sat in to listen to the lecture, and just two students asked for leave and vacated the stools.

Wang Shangxie said goodbye to the principal and sat in the back with Yu Bo to listen to the class. As soon as he started class, Wang Shang felt that he was back in high school, and the warm picture in the depths of his memory surfaced again, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved into a smile.

However, Wang Shang quickly cleaned up her mood and began to inspect the candidates for the school flower of this class, and she sat in front of Wang Shang's right, and the observation angle was just right.

Her name is Shen Yao, she has a pair of beautiful eyes, a sweet smile, innocent, casual, she is like sunshine and air, inadvertently attracting the attention of all the boys in the class.

She is not as beautiful as the original school flowers, but she inexplicably touched the string in Wang Shang's heart.

Wang Shang observed and wrote and drew in his notebook, constantly intersecting her image with the image in the script.

"There's no one better suited for that role than her!!" Wang Shang thought in his heart.

After class, Wang Shang told the principal his opinion, and after the principal saw Shen Yao's image, he also felt that it was very suitable.

When receiving Wang Shang's request, Shen Yao cheered and was very surprised: "Make a movie? Can I make a movie? ”

Shen Yao's family is poor, her parents work hard, and she has to support four younger brothers, and her economic conditions are extremely poor. Since childhood, I have longed for the glorious star road, fantasizing that I can become a star in the future, hoping that I can change from a Cinderella to a white swan.

Now that the opportunity has finally come, it is natural to be very excited.

Wang Shang and Yu Bo glanced at each other and smiled: "It's done!" ”

After the selection of actors, they began to borrow equipment and start filming.

The aftermath went back and forth, shooting scene layout, and those brick-like old-fashioned cassette recorders, BP players, handheld game consoles and other antique props were purchased and borrowed......

Wang Shang was a little more relaxed, and pressed most of the things to the aftermath, which is called 'exercise'. Yu Bo did not object, but accepted it happily, because this kind of exercise opportunity is really rare.

On December 23, everything was ready, and "Oldboy" was successfully launched.

The day of the start of the film was very low-key, and no one was invited, just the actors in the movie. However, director Zheng Long and some acquaintances of Datang International came, wishing "Old Boy" a big hit.

Worship God, cut the pig's head, and officially start up.

The script is well understood, and if Wang Shang's command is determined, if it weren't for the actors' acting skills, the filming progress is estimated to be very fast.
