Chapter 862: Audition for "Spartan 300 Warriors" (Part II)
Whether it is the company's top management, styling, screenwriter, director, or the author of a novel, the people sitting here at this time, including Menjie, have only one purpose.
That's ......
Make the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors" even better!
If it is a low-budget movie, the benefits are not very many, there may be some racist people, or simply want their relatives and friends to appear in the movie, nepotism This kind of dirty thing appears, but for a Hollywood blockbuster with a total investment of more than 60 million US dollars......
If it is smashed, if any link is found to be a problem, their future in this life will be completely ruined.
No matter who it is, it is impossible to move even the slightest filthy mind on this.
Therefore, before Menjie, he was worried that there would be a storm in the casting this time, and he was completely worried about it.
Even if it is for the sake of profit, as long as they feel that Men Jie is very suitable for the second supporting actor in the movie, even if they are extremely disgusted with Men Jie in their hearts, they will put on a smiling face and invite Men Jie to participate in the movie.
Of course, this is also something that Menjie didn't expect, but Menjie is still very happy to get the kindness of everyone on the scene.
"Here, Menjie, give this to you!"
Just when Menjie and everyone were proficient in English, and everyone praised Menjie's English was very good, Zach? Schneider rushed back from outside, holding a pocket in his hand, and handed it directly to Menjie.
"It's ......"
Frowning slightly, Menjie was a little puzzled by Zack? Schneider handed over the pocket, opened it and looked at it, but found that it was actually from the King system, in the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors". Equipment for the Spartan warriors!
The soldiers in the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors" are dressed very simply, nothing more than a red cape, small leather pants, and then ...... There is no then.
In Menjie's mind, it may be because this nation is completely ignorant of scientific and cultural knowledge, and only rushes into battle, all the warriors have extraordinary fighting talent, combat smell and combat awareness, and incomparably tenacious will.
Every time they fight, they will abandon their bulky armor in order to conserve more physical strength. Chose to use only helmets and shields for defense, but other than that......
The Spartans had to attack and kill!
It is precisely because of this that in the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", all the fighters except for simple clothes. There was only a spear, a scimitar, a shield, and a helmet, and no armor.
If you want to see clearly. Whether or not Menjie has the temperament of a warrior is simple. You only need to let Menjie change into a full set, but at this time, after seeing Menjie's image, except for Zack? Except for Schneider, all the people really have a certain good impression of Menjie, a Chinese man.
This. Maybe it has something to do with Menjie's 'affinity aura', right?!
It is precisely because of this, after pondering for a while, everyone feels that it is okay to take a general look at whether Menjie himself really has the temperament of a warrior. There's no need to make it too cumbersome.
That's right, Zach at this time? Among the things Schneider brought to Menjie, there were only shields and spears, and there were nothing else other than these two standard equipment.
"Menjie, you can use these two pieces of equipment today to give us a rough performance, if it's similar to what you showed in your personal photo album...... This character is yours! ”
The most rear, Zach? Schneider told Menjie the original method of today's audition.
There is no need for Menjie to have too many performances or anything like that, in fact, through Warner Bros. news channels, I also learned that Menjie has starred in countless Chinese movies in the past two years, most of which are the lineup of top actors and directors in China.
Until some time ago, Menjie has become the leading actor of an excellent movie shot by the top director in China, and in terms of acting skills, there should be no problem.
So what everyone is most concerned about now is whether Menjie is really as shown in the personal photo album "God of War Emperor", with a feeling of iron and blood and warrior naturally exuding from his body.
That's the most important thing.
And......
Because in the hearts of everyone, they already have a good impression of the door in front of them, and feel that except for the door door, others are really not very suitable, and the difficulty of this early audition has also been reduced a lot.
They don't even need to designate a certain part of the script to be played by Menjie, they only need to show a feeling of a warrior, which is enough.
"Yes!"
Nodding slightly, although Menjie was wearing a sportswear, which was not very consistent with the equipment in front of him, but because Menjie had an 'iron-blooded temperament', he was not afraid at all, and stood in front of the five people directly with a shield in one hand and a spear in the other.
Closing his eyes and taking a slight breath, Menjie's whole body naturally revealed a strange temperament.
This temperament is the B-level temperament skill 'Temperament Rendering (Iron Blood)' that Men Jie has and has just opened!
Of course, Menjie is just an actor after all, and he has not evolved his 'iron-blooded temperament' to a more advanced level, and the level is not very profound.
If Menjie can develop his iron-blooded temperament to such a level of A-level skills, I am afraid that just exuding this temperament will be able to give everyone on the scene a feeling of coercion and suffocation, as if he has really seen the feeling of a warrior coming out of the sea of corpses and blood.
But now......
Menjie is still far away!
Among the acting skills, the lowest level is the D-level skill, which is just a specific gaze, which can only be regarded as an entry, in addition, among the temperament skills, the lowest level is the C-level skill.
The usual C-level skills, such as the C-level iron-blooded temperament, probably require a specific costume on the Menjie ship, and after a series of makeup, when it is performed, it can make people feel that 'he looks like a warrior'.
The existence of this kind of temperament is more superficial, purely for performance.
And the B-level temperament skills, since there is the word 'rendering', it is naturally an ability that can affect the people around them!
With the right outfit and some makeup, Menjie just needs to stand here and give the people around him the feeling that he's a real warrior.
Even, if you are too close, I am afraid that when acting, you will be influenced by Menjie, and the timid are afraid, which is the true meaning of the words 'temperament rendering'.
But it's a pity that although Menjie has and has turned on the B-level temperament skill 'Temperament Rendering (Iron Blood)', as well as the acting skills that are enough to fully control it, he can't give it out perfectly because he doesn't have specific costumes and makeup.
Because the casual clothes on his body are somewhat inconsistent with his current momentum, although Menjie standing in place will give people a feeling of 'he is a real warrior', it can't affect other people, and they are afraid of Menjie, a warrior.
But that's all it takes, but it also makes Zach included? The five people, including Schneider, couldn't help but light up.
At this time, the kind of temperament that exudes from all over his body is exactly what they need!
In the past, when they were casting, they found countless people, many of whom had excellent acting skills or unique temperaments, but none of them were what they needed.
Some of these people have acting against the sky and can perform easily, but they don't exude a sense of warrior from their bones.
There are also people who, because of their years of military experience, have a sense of competence, heroic and majestic, but also have a feeling of being a warrior.
But this soldier is just a soldier living in the modern army, a soldier in peacetime, lacking the feeling of a soldier who has seen blood and killed people.
Of course, among the people who auditioned, there are also actors who will give people the feeling of 'seeing blood and killing people', and they are indeed very much like a warrior who has experienced a hundred battles and killed countless times, but in their bodies, they can't feel the feeling of being forbidden and immovable.
Such a person can only play a hero-like character, not a warrior!
In the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", the battle of Thermopylae Pass is described, and its main content is the story of 300 Spartan warriors, relying on the natural danger of Thermopylae, to resist hundreds of thousands of Persian troops and fight thousands of times the enemy without defeat.
A hero, a powerful Spartan warrior, is also a human after all, no matter how powerful he is, it is absolutely impossible to resist the hundreds of thousands of local armies by himself.
The most important reason why the 300 warriors of Sparta are so strong that they can resist hundreds of thousands of troops with only 300 people is because these 300 people are united and tacitly understandable, and they can tie up 300 people into one with their unique battle formations in battle, and finally resist the enemy.
A Spartan is a fierce tiger, and he looks down on it, but if 300 Spartans are combined, they are a dragon, incomparable!
So......
In the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", the reason why the Spartans are strong is not because one person is a hero, but because of the tacit cooperation and mutual trust.
Thus, when casting, a hero-like warrior is far less advantageous than a real warrior. (To be continued......)
