Chapter 822: Actor Candidates
Han Jin was already eloquent, and the story of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was also ups and downs, lingering and compassionate, so the four of them quickly listened to it.
Director Xu Ke couldn't help but shine with excitement when he heard Han Jin's comparison of Yan Chixia's Taoism and swordsmanship, as well as the combination of yin and yang and weird demon skills of the tree demon grandmother.
He likes this kind of weird and chaotic story the most, and he has made weird movies like "Butterfly Change", "Shu Mountain", and "No Gate to Hell" before, so now when he hears this script, he is immediately excited.
Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong, and Ye Qianwen were very moved by the love between Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, especially when they heard that Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian were separated forever in the end, and they couldn't even imagine the last face, they were even more moved to tears.
"Well, what do you think of the script?" After Han Jin finished talking, he looked at everyone and said.
"It's great, if it is made into a movie, I will definitely buy a ticket to see it." Lin Qingxia nodded.
"Well, it's really touching, I think it's more touching than the version directed by Li Hanxiang." Zhong Chuhong also wiped her tears and said.
Director Li Hanxiang's version pays more attention to national hatred and family hatred, as well as the advocating character of ancient gentlemen, but it does not portray the love between Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian.
"Yes, yes, Ah Jin, this script is really good. The tree demon grandma who combines yin and yang, the old demon of Montenegro who married in vain in the city...... Hey! It's amazing how you think about it. Xu Ke laughed happily.
Han Jin's story not only has the feelings of national hatred and family hatred, and people in troubled times are not as good as Taiping dogs, but also has the private relationship between men and women, moving the heavens and the earth to cry ghosts and gods, as well as mysterious Taoism, weird witchcraft, and wonderful martial arts scenes...... All this is simply too much for Xu Ke's appetite. It's like a script made for him.
"So, Director Xu, do you have the heart to make this film?" Han Jin said with a smile.
"Of course, of course, I must shoot this drama." Xu Ke nodded again and again, "Ah Jin, you must give me this script." Otherwise, I won't say yes. ”
"Don't worry, I don't think there is a second person in Hong Kong who can shoot this drama well." Han Jin also nodded. This "A Chinese Ghost Story" has to be filmed by Xu Ke, otherwise if you change to a second person, you won't be able to shoot that weird and strange and romantic style.
"Thank you, thank you." Xu Kexi said with a smile, holding Han Jin's hand tightly and not letting go.
For a director, find a script that suits your appetite. It's not easy.
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Han Jin said with a smile, he was also very happy that Xu Ke was able to take over this burden.
"Ah Jin, who are you going to find to play this play?" Ye Qianwen asked curiously, her eyes blinked, there was no doubt that she was the role of Nie Xiaoqian.
In the play "A Chinese Ghost Story", Nie Xiaoqian is definitely a well-deserved protagonist. It's outstanding. Even if it is a character with outstanding personalities like Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia, their existence is just to foil her.
A good character like this. Naturally, she was quite excited. In fact, not only her, but Lin Qingxia and Zhong Chuhong were actually quite excited, and the two of them also looked at Han Jin with burning eyes, although they were embarrassed to speak, but the meaning was self-evident.
"Ah, headache." Han Jin said helplessly in his heart.
The role of Nie Xiaoqian was tailor-made by him for Wang Qixian. has seen all the beautiful stars in Hong Kong, and the actor who is more suitable for playing Nie Xiaoqian than her has not yet been born.
Zhong Chuhong is too sexy, Ye Qianwen is too ordinary, Lin Qingxia is a little old, although she is beautiful, and her temperament is hard. is not very suitable for playing this poor amorous female ghost......
"Ah, this, this ......" Seeing the three beauties all looking at him with burning eyes, Han Jin couldn't help but stammer, "I haven't thought about this yet, I think it's better to give me more time to think about it." And I also have to respect Director Xu's opinion, don't you say? He looked at Xu Kedao helplessly.
Xu Kexin said that all the previous movies were not all actors assigned by you, and now you are embarrassed to make a decision in front of them, so you pushed this hot potato to me again.
"yes, yes." Although he was slandered in his heart, Xu Ke still cheered, "But although the actress has not been selected yet, I have already selected the actor." He glanced at Han Jin and said with a smile.
Han Jin suddenly had a sudden shock in his heart, guessing that things might be bad.
Sure enough, I heard Xu Ke laugh and said, "I think the role of Ning Caichen is very suitable for Ah Jin to play." What do you guys think? ”
"Yes, that's a good fit." Ye Qianwen nodded and smiled.
Zhong Chuhong and Lin Qingxia were stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a smile.
Ning Caichen is a righteous gentleman, a good person with overflowing sympathy, and a silly boy who doesn't know life or death, kind, cute, responsible, and compassionate. For a woman, she is really a representative of the perfect lover, which just matches Han Jin's image.
"Don't, don't, I still have a concert, I don't have time in the second half of the year, you better find someone else to perform." Han Jin waved his hand and smiled.
He is self-aware of his acting skills, and if he is just handsome and cool, he will definitely be competent. But a role like Ning Caichen, which requires a certain amount of acting skills, forget it. Otherwise, if a good character is ruined by himself, then he is really a great sin.
"It's okay, I can push this drama until next year." Xu Ke said with a smile.
Think about it, when the filming of this drama starts, he can use "Han Jin's first movie after retirement" as a gimmick to promote, and the box office of this movie will not be in an uproar at that time.
Although Xu Ke is a geek, he has always been a maverick and likes to make movies with a strong personal style, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't care about the box office.
In fact, no matter how high and low the director is, he also hopes that his works can be recognized by the audience. Xu Ke is like this, Guan Jinpeng is like this, Xu Anhua is like this, and even Wang Jiawei is like this.
With Han Jin starring in the movie box office, there is no need to worry. As for acting, Xu Ke believes that Han Jin should be competent. No matter how bad it is, he still has himself on the side, learning over and over again, grinding over and over again, Xu Ke doesn't believe that he can't polish Han Jin's acting skills.
"Don't, don't, there's next year." Han Jin smiled, "That's it, I'll recommend someone to you first, and you should consider him." ”
"Who?" Xu Ke asked curiously.
"Zhang Guorong." Han Jin then said.
Xu Ke was stunned for a moment, passed it in his mind for a while, and then thought about his performance in "The True Color of Heroes", and his eyes suddenly lit up.
If he is to act, it is really not much worse than Han Jin. (To be continued......)
