On May 31st, the Jedi Strikes Back of the epic trilogy officially announced the end of casting.

After several days of interviews, the film finally selected a huge team of nearly 500 people, although most of these people are small supporting roles with no lines, but they are an indispensable highlight of the whole film.

The entire five hundred sturdy men have an extraordinary visual impact just by looking at them, let alone taking off their clothes.

At the beginning, some people suggested to Yue Song that it was best not to show their breasts, and one or two people would be fine, but to say that hundreds of people looked like this, it would be too unruly - this is a Chinese costume film, not a Beidou God Fist!

Yue Song scoffed at this, the two thousand Han troops and the one hundred thousand Huns fought for two whole years, and after two years, they were wearing iron clothes, but they were afraid that they would have to be broken, not to mention just cloth armor?

In fact, filming the Jedi counterattack scene, Yue Song still has another idea buried in his heart, but it is just inconvenient to reveal it for the time being.

As we all know, after hundreds of years of castrated Manchu rule, the spirit and heritage of the Han nation have long withered, and it can even be said that this nation has lost much of its spirit of resistance and blood surname.

Although it has re-emerged in modern times, it has used various isms and political ideas, which are useless for the heritage and sublimation of the nation itself.

The purpose of filming the Jedi counterattack is to provoke the string buried in the heart of the Han nation, so that this twilight nation can once again recall the lost spirit.

Doing so may be suspected of nationalist tendencies, especially offending a department called the United Front Work Department, but as the so-called lice are too many and not afraid of itching, who let Yue Song have this ability and want to do this?

Dude just did it, what can you do about me?

Hundreds of strong men are not easy to find, this errand really made Dai Wentao put a lot of effort, not only searched all the major fitness clubs in the capital, but also did not let go of places such as sports colleges, regardless of age, beauty or ugliness, as long as the height and body shape are qualified, you can enter the crew and receive a high remuneration.

Five hundred yuan per person per day, and it is still a high salary, plus it is a movie, so I don't worry about no one coming at all, but I am worried that there is no suitable candidate, just because Yue Song's requirements are really harsh.

It is not difficult to be 1.8 meters tall, and men above 1.8 meters abound in the north, but it is not the case to say that you can find 500 muscular men.

Huaxia is not as good as Europe and the United States, and it is good to say that when you were a student, once you leave school to work, you will gain weight out of ten.

Fortunately, Dai Wentao was prepared and released the casting criteria for this play early, especially in the three eastern provinces and Shandong and other places, which are the top priority in promoting this play, and promised to reimburse the bus and accommodation expenses if they fail the interview, so they soon gathered more than 1,000 interviewers.

In the end, after some careful selection, 500 people were finally selected from among them.

Once the candidate is finalized, the start-up shooting is also on the agenda at the same time, after all, every day of delay for hundreds of people will lose one more day.

On June 5, the crew, along with all the actors, was transferred to Western Xinjiang Province.

The reason why I went to the original site to shoot is because the local area has good shooting conditions, and it is obviously not possible to restore the landform of Shule City in the Eastern Han Dynasty in a short time, and now Shule City is located in Qitai County, and the county government axe strongly supports this shooting, so it can be said that in addition to not paying money, what do you want.

The second point is to select more suitable actors - the Xiongnu have long disappeared in the long river of history, and now they can only be replaced by local ethnic minorities, in a place where the average annual income is not more than 10,000 yuan, the salary of 100 yuan is still very attractive.

Yue Song's mouth was opened, and a large amount of silver was smashed down, and it took less than half a month for the ruins of Shule City to take on a new look, and even the wells that had been dug at the beginning were filled with water by the county government axe, just like a deep posture of an ancient well.

The role played by Qin Lan this time is the queen of the Western Regions Effect Driver, and there are few descriptions of her in the history books, and she seems to be just a dispensable character, but in the Romance of the Later Han Dynasty, there seems to be an inexplicable ambiguity and secret between her and Geng Gong, the Han military captain who defended Shule City......

Qin Lan herself is also very satisfied with this role, although the Jedi Counterattack is an outright man's play, but she is the only heroine in this play, and she is still a quite brilliant character, if she plays it well, not to mention being popular, at least she will be famous.

Because the focus of this drama is the war, Yue Song plans to shoot the scenes of the Battle of Shule City first, and the interactive scenes between Geng Gong, the captain of the Han Military Academy, and the queen of the Cheshi played by him are interspersed throughout the play.

Qin Lan was not dissatisfied because of the lack of scenes, but followed the crew to Qitai County.

In her words, she still has the least level of professionalism.

Yue Song just smiled when he heard it, but he didn't take it seriously, he had already seen the flame buried in the depths of this woman's eyes, it was a kind of fire called ambition.

As for who Qin Lan's ambition is aimed at, she doesn't need to ask to know that besides Yue Song, how can anyone else be worthy of her doing this?

Just look at Chen Zihan to know that since her "sister-brother relationship" with Yue Song was exposed by the media, her star path has also been much smoother, and she doesn't worry about having no films to shoot at all, there are too many crews and investors, just to form a good relationship with Yue Song, she will show good deeds to the people around him.

Everyone knows that Yue Song is an orphan, so the best way to please him naturally falls on Chen Zihan, who made her Yue Song's "sister"?

Qin Lan won't believe in any "sister-brother relationship", a bullshit sister-brother relationship! Don't talk about the entertainment industry these days, even in reality, how many simple relationships between men and women can there be?

She is a person from the past, so she naturally understands Yue Song's value better, so even if she and Chen Zihan are close best friends, it will not affect her idea of secretly beating Yue Song.

Because of the big age difference between the two, she didn't want anything else, just thinking that she could catch Yue Song's hitchhiker and make her career go further, and she was completely satisfied.

For this reason, even if she needs to pay something, she is willing, not to mention that the goal that is worth her pay for is not those pot-bellied old men, but a handsome little guy who is very popular with women.

So after staying at the hotel prepared for the crew by the local political axe in Qitai County, on the same night, Qin Lan appeared at the door of Yue Song's room in a cool outfit.

When Yue Song opened the door and saw that it was this very enterprising female surname, he couldn't help but show a smile in his heart.

"Sister Lan, it's so late...... Can I help you? ”

Qin Lan snorted lightly and said with a smile: "I haven't had time to thank you, don't you plan to give my sister a chance?" ”

Yue Song smiled slightly, got out of the way, and watched Qin Lan walk into the room with her hips swaying, and subconsciously thought of Han Caiying - from the perspective of appearance and temperament, Qin Lan and Han Caiying are very similar, even the measurements are almost the same, but one is elegant and atmospheric, the other is charming, and there is a slight gap in height.

But overall, this is a female goblin with a charm index comparable to Han Chaeyoung, and deserves to be included in his favorites.

With some kind of bad thoughts, Yue Song began to talk to Qin Lan face-to-face.

At the beginning, the topic of conversation between the two seemed a little nonsensical, such as the topic of Yue Song's debut for a while, and the topic of Qin Lan's unsmooth career development in the past few years.

chatted and chatted, and talked about the box office of Wuxia 2.

"That's right! I haven't had time to congratulate you, Martial Arts 2 is another good movie that is a big box office hit, this is your third work with a box office of over 100 million! As soon as he said this, even Qin Lan was amazed.

Martial Arts 2 - The Rise of Heroes, which was just drawn a few days ago, has a total box office of 250 million in the mainland, slightly lower than the first martial arts trilogy, but it is still a box office hit!

If you add Xiangjiang's 43 million box office, this movie just broke 300 million!

Not to mention South Korea, the number of moviegoers in South Korea is stuck at 3.5 million, which is not a small gap with the first part of martial arts, but compared with the copyright fee, the distributor still makes a lot of money, and even has the idea of buying martial arts 3 in advance - the peak is in sight, and it will be released earlier than the mainland of China.

Dongbao on this side also has similar thoughts, the copyright fee is easy to say, who made the box office of Wuxia 2 in the book exceed 4 billion yuan? Dongbao's attitude towards Yue Song now can be described as a fortune boy.

In addition, South Asian countries and Treasure Island have achieved good box office results, and Wuxia 2 has also been hyped by the mainland media, eager to hold Yue Song to the sky.

It's a pity that this guy is an "unsociable" outlier, whenever the box office hits and the media gets moved, the paparazzi will find that the little martial god has disappeared again.

The target of the hype is not there, how can those hot topics set off a storm?

Qin Lan was envious of this, and she felt a little bit of hatred for not being able to "accept it for her".

In the entertainment industry, who doesn't want to be a topic of discussion like Yue Song? After all, there are only a few who have washed away the lead and are plain, and only when someone has achieved a recognized status and fame can they be qualified to pose in front of the media, not everyone dares to be unsociable like Yue Song.

Facing Qin Lan's scorching gaze, Yue Song calmly accepted it, "There is nothing to congratulate at the box office of over 100 million, such a big country, more than a billion people, and not necessarily how many people have watched the movie." My goal is not as simple as breaking 100 million......"

"Oh?" Qin Lan was stunned when she heard this, and said in surprise: "Do you want to challenge the box office record of Hollywood blockbusters?" ”

"You find it difficult?" Yue Song smiled, "Records are created by people, Hollywood can, why can't Chinese movies?" If I can't win Hollywood at home, how can I fight with others when I go to Hollywood in the future? ”

"You want to go to Hollywood?" Qin Lan's eyes widened, this is big news, Xiao Martial God admitted for the first time that he had the idea of entering Hollywood!

"I've already been there." Yue Song replied calmly, and before Qin Lan asked puzzledly, he prompted: "I already have a movie released in North America, and the copyrights of two more have also been sold, don't you know this news?" ”

Qin Lan was dumbfounded, of course she knew, and she knew it very clearly. (To be continued.) )
