Chapter 663: Take the initiative to find the trick of the door
Uncle Ge, a veteran chess fan, boasts of his amateur 2-dan strength, and has stood up for Go for free many times, such as several times in real history, he has attended events and served as a "promotion ambassador" and other roles.
Xie Yuan is a more senior chess fan than Ge You, a super Go enthusiast, his preference for Go is one of the best in the domestic entertainment industry, and Lao Nie, Hua Leader and others have deep personal relationships, and he participated in the "chess king" in his early years, and he is definitely a hardcore chess fan.
The two of them appeared together in the Chinese Chess Academy, Li Xiangping thought it was something else at first, but he didn't think that as soon as they opened their mouths, they were also coming for the "big country".
Among them, especially Xie Yuan, when he saw Li Xiangping, he immediately turned into a fan brother...... Well, old fan brother, I saw him rushing to Li Xiangping with a brisk step:
"Hah! , Li Xiangping! Hello Xiangping, today can be regarded as meeting a real person, I am your super fan, how about it, sign me today. ”
"Don't sign, don't sign," Li Xiangping said with a smile: "My handwriting is too ugly, so I'm exempt from signing it, why are you two here today?" Is there any competition that you would like to promote? ”
"No one invites," Uncle Ge pretended to sigh:
"Take this "big player" as an example, there are so many characters in it, I said in my heart that there are always one or two suitable for me, but I am waiting left and right at home, I heard that this casting has ended, hey! I haven't been invited yet, we all worked together yesterday, and I think how can this work, it's too bullying, no, we'll come to the door today, and the chess academy has to give me an explanation. ”
"Hehe, you're too expensive, who can afford it, and the casting has nothing to do with the chess academy."
Of course, Li Xiangping knew that the two were joking, so he responded in the same joking tone. But he didn't think that Xie Yuan seemed to be serious:
"Is there really no role left? Even if we play a trick and play a soy sauce role, it's okay. ”
"Hehe, thank you, teacher, are you kidding? You two are such big wrists, especially Uncle Ge, the king of Chinese New Year films, which film and television company dares to ask you to play tricks. ”
"Others can't, you Li Xiangping is fine," Xie Yuan said in a half-joking, half-serious tone:
"I've filmed chess kings before, but it's a chess theme, but I'm a Go fan, how can I miss the first domestic Go-themed film and television drama, so Xiangping is good, I have to get a trick for me to run."
"The first part in China shouldn't be counted," Ge You corrected Xie Yuan and said: "Have you forgotten the previous "unfinished game of chess"? After correcting Xie Yuan, Uncle Ge turned to Li Xiangping again and said with a smile:
"The main thing is that you are starring in this play, tsk, the modern chess saint personally plays the ancient chess saint, as long as you think about it, it is very emotional, the masterful boss, the line is good, we really only need to play a trick, as long as we appear in a drama with you."
The two sang and talked about it to this point, so of course Li Xiangping had no reason to refuse, but he really wanted to add two roles, and he also felt a little embarrassed, after all, this "great hand" started from the creation of the script, Zhao Jiadong invited a lot of experts, did a lot of research, and strived to restore a real Fan Shi era, it is not an exaggeration to say that even if there are only one or two lines in it, the small characters are real historical figures.
Obviously, with the two coffee positions in front of them, if they are really called as extras, there is not a single line in the whole play, which is definitely inappropriate.
But the roles with names and surnames are almost all determined by now.
“…… has to have lines, and it's a trick that doesn't weigh much...... Pregnant! ”
Li Xiangping's brain was running at high speed, and in the end, he really remembered a bridge, and after thinking of it, he smiled at the two of them:
"Since the two of you are so supportive, that's okay, I just thought of these two tricks, wait a minute, I can't call the shots in this matter, I'll call Director Qiu first."
Xie Yuan looked like an anxious child:
"Director Qiu, right? Director Qiu I know very well, don't work hard for you, I'll call this number."
After finishing speaking, he really took out the phone and dialed Director Qiu, and after hanging up the phone, he smiled at Li Xiangping:
"Director Qiu happens to be at home now, Xiangping, why don't we go over now? You squeak him in the face. ”
There was nothing to do left and right, so Li Xiangping readily agreed: "
Okay, just take a trip, just go on a trip, and it just so happens that this matter is not clear on the phone. ”
Xie Yuan led the way, and a group of 3 people soon came to a place in Haidian District, Li Xiangping took a look, isn't this Beiying's territory, and said in his heart No wonder Xie Yuan said that he was very familiar with Director Qiu.
They are indeed very familiar, and after they met, Xie Yuan didn't have a word of nonsense at all, he explained his intentions straightforwardly.
Director Qiu looked at Li Xiangping, and Li Xiangping smiled:
"When the ancient Ryukyu prince came to China to learn chess, do you think you can add two fictional characters?"
Of course, Director Qiu is very familiar with the script, so after listening to Li Xiangping's words, he slapped his thigh at that time: "Yes, yes, yes, there is only one place in the whole script that still has room to play--------......
The ancient Ryukyu prince came to China to learn chess, which is of course also based on historical records, but it is a Japanese ancient book that records this matter, and there is no record in Chinese historical materials.
Therefore, in modern times, I don't know anything except that it can be inferred that it probably happened when Fan Shi was still active.
I don't know what year they came from? Where exactly did you log in to the mainland? Where exactly did you learn chess? Who did you learn from?
It is precisely because there are so many unknowns that for a film and television work, there is room to play.
And Li Xiangping's idea is like this: let one of them play the role of a teahouse owner in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the other will play the role of a local amateur tycoon. (If the ancient Ryukyu princes wanted to land on the mainland in the Qing Dynasty, of course, they were most likely in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian, and since they came to learn chess, they were most likely to find a teahouse, after all, teahouse Go was popular at that time, and it was the most mainstream Go place at that time)
Li Xiangping said his idea briefly, and several others applauded it at the time, and said that such a plot design was reasonable, and Ge You even played on the spot:
"Hehe, I think this idea is very good, that's okay, let's make it like this, the teahouse owner will be up to me, and he is not only the teahouse owner, he is also a super fan of Shi Xiangxia, and the local powerhouse played by Yuan Zi is a fan of Fan Xiping, so they also started a controversy after the ancient Ryukyu prince came, arguing whether it is better for the ancient Ryukyu prince to learn Fan Qisheng's chess, or to learn Shi Qisheng's chess."
And after Xie Yuan heard it, he had no opinion on other plots, and Dawei objected to one detail:
"Hey, I said Yuko, I have no opinion if you want to play the owner of the teahouse, but why are you a fan of Shi Qisheng? No, no, this must be changed, Shi Qisheng's fans are up to me, and Fan Qisheng's fans will be handed over to you......"
Li Xiangping and Director Qiu happily watched the two of them arguing there, playing freely there, and it only took them a short time to completely make up the roles of the two tricks.
Li Xiangping was very happy to look at it, but after Director Qiu watched it, he felt more and more pressure-------
In fact, as soon as the casting work ended, he already felt a lot of pressure. Let's take a look at the roles chosen in this drama:
One male and two male, two pure laymen, rookies who have no acting foundation before.
The situation of the first female and the second female is also not much better, the first female is just a student, and there are no works before, and the second female is simply a relation, I heard that the second female has sponsored a lot of money in private in order to get this role,.
Compared with several leading actors, on the contrary, several supporting roles are some old drama bones, even if it is Brother Chao of the Mesozoic Generation, his acting skills are not bad, and he is already a leader among young people today.
Now it's okay, just this kind of trick that only has a few minutes of play, and all actors of Ge You's level take the initiative to come to the door.
Director Qiu looked at Li Xiangping, who was still stupidly happy, and sighed in his heart, saying in his heart that you have a big heart, and you can still laugh now, don't officially start filming when the time comes, it's good that your acting skills are beaten by a bunch of old drama bones. ------
And Director Qiu's worry is actually here, if in a TV series, the scenes of several leading actors are not good, but the supporting roles are all excellent, this is a typical "top-heavy".
And once this happens, no matter how good the script is, it will affect the quality of the whole drama, especially the leading actors, which is very likely to attract ridicule on the Internet.
And now, Director Qiu can actually foresee this situation, so he is very strange that Li Xiangping can still laugh at this time.
It's just that now, even if Director Qiu is worried, it is over, the roles are all finalized, and the shooting plan has been completed, except for Li Xiangping because of the special situation, his drama will be filmed in seven or eight months, and the whole "big country" will be officially launched next month.
“…… Well, originally as a crossover actor, my requirements couldn't be too high, but looking at the current situation, it can't be done, especially the first protagonist Shi Xiangxia, he is the core of the whole drama, his performance is not up to par, and the whole drama will be very embarrassing......
And Li Xiangping at this time, of course he didn't know what Director Qiu was thinking at the moment, he just saw that someone actually took the initiative to come to the door to be a trick, he was still very happy in his heart, he felt that he had more face, and after saying goodbye to everyone happily, the time also came to June 06.
Li Xiangping once again returned his mind to Go, because this month, the "Fujitsu Cup" quarterfinals will be played in Beijing, in addition, the biennial "Chunlan Cup" is now also news, the first two rounds will be held at the end of June.
The first weekend of June soon arrived, and on this day, Li Xiangping went to the Chinese Chess Academy again to continue working hard for the first five consecutive championships in the world chess world.
