There is no doubt that actors are one of the keys to the success of a movie.

For this movie, because of the particularity of the identity of the king of Sparta, the requirements for the person who plays "Leoni" must be very high, not only to be liked and loved by everyone, but also to be able to experience the mentality of resisting aggression in terms of temperament and heart.

And to play a role like Xerxes, in addition to having the temperament of a Persian emperor, he must also have the face of a politician.

Therefore, not everyone can play these two roles!

Now, the two protagonists of the play "Spartan 300 Warriors" have been determined, namely Mel Gibson and Bill Clinton.

In addition, to get rid of them, such as the Spartan queen, the high priest, and the Spartan generals, as well as the generals of the Persian Empire, the vanguard, etc., the actors who play these people must also be carefully selected, and they must not be sloppy at all.

Choosing the right actor for this movie will become the most headache for Yi Feiyang.

"I'll take care of this myself." Yi Feiyang looked at Dures and let out a sigh of relief.

It was determined that the filming of "Spartan 300 Warriors" would officially start, which made the senior management of Dream Entertainment excited, and in the next few days, everyone went their separate ways.

Fat Jack first flew to Harvard University in person, invited a group of historians, geographers, experts in ancient Greek studies, and linguists to come to Dream Entertainment, and then, with the help of these academic talents, the production department began to work overtime to produce various props and costumes according to the drawings they formulated.

Cinematographer Cindy kept contacting various special effects companies in the United States through various means, because Yi Feiyang said that this drama is not a big production. It is necessary to reduce the investment in the scene. Directly from the blue screen. That is, the actors perform in front of the blue screen, and then add post-production special effects to make an oil painting-style movie, which is somewhat similar to the shooting method of martial arts films in Hong Kong in the 80s, basically using fake scene shooting, such as the prologue of "bending the bow and shooting the eagle eagle" in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which is a fake scene shooting.

Among the group of people, Yi Feiyang also has a lot of things at hand.

The first is to make changes to the script. It took two sleepless nights for him to write the storyboard script.

Secondly, because he is a director, Yi Feiyang also has to follow the group of historians and Greek studies experts and language experts to supplement all kinds of knowledge, even Greek language and Persian language.

History is easy to understand, but learning languages is not so easy. Among the linguists, one is a master of the Greek language and the other is a professor of the Persian language. The two men were responsible for writing the lines that appeared in the script in Greek and Persian, and then taught Yi Feiyang sentence by sentence. For a few days, someone's tongue was crooked.

Compared to these two things. Choosing actors is even more difficult.

According to Yi Feiyang's original plan, all the actors were selected from the masses, but later he found that this idea may be a bit unrealistic.

Because this drama has too high requirements for the physique and physique of the actors!

As we all know, the Spartans are the most courageous people, and children are born to participate in very cruel exercises, survival of the fittest, which created the Spartan miracle.

Therefore, those old, weak, sick and disabled extras are not suitable for such roles at all.

In desperation, Yi Feiyang could only release the news of selecting "macho men" according to the list on the credits.

For a time, the entire United States and the whole of Hollywood were shocked by this news, especially those bodybuilding gentlemen, who flocked to the scene, one by one to squeeze their scalps and want to use the drama of fantasy entertainment to become the second "Schwarzenegger".

After two consecutive days of recruiting and selecting actors, Yi Feiyang was not lightly tired, and for those who were in great shape but lacked acting skills, Yi Feiyang had to be sent away. For those who have good acting skills, but their figure is a little ...... is thin, and Yi Feiyang can only endure the pain and leave. In this way, in two days, a total of less than a dozen actors were selected to play several roles in the play. However, the role of "Sain", whose role is second only to the two leading actors, has still not found a suitable candidate.

Sain, the Spartan general, the king's most loyal subordinate, and the most courageous warrior in the Battle of Thermopula, saved the king's name several times, defeated countless enemies, and was fierce on the outside, but delicate and warm on the inside, so the character is more difficult to shape, and it is not something that ordinary young actors can control.

Rubbing his temples, Yi Feiyang felt very tired, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening, and he had been working for more than ten hours in a row, even if he was an iron man, he couldn't stay up.

Yi Feiyang walked out of the company gate, looked at the dark night, took a deep breath, and walked towards the small bar not far away.

Yes, upset him, ready to go there for a drink.

I didn't bring bodyguards, I didn't let anyone accompany me, and I didn't drive.

Like an ordinary person wandering in the United States, Yi Feiyang walked alone on the street.

In fact, not far behind him, there were two sturdy men in black who had been following him, they were Gao Jiabao's personal bodyguards hired at a high price. The task is to follow Yi Feiyang and protect him wherever he goes.

The fat man knew that Yi Feiyang didn't like this kind of tone of being "protected" by others, so he issued an order that it was best to distance himself from Yi Feiyang and protect him secretly.

Yi Feiyang can only turn a blind eye to this, who let himself be assassinated not long ago.

The bar is very lively, and many people who like night pu gather here, including lonely men, bewitching girls, amorous sons, and affectionate dancers.

In short, this little bar in Hollywood is a surreal movie where you can meet all kinds of people and their lives.

Yi Feiyang looked at the noisy people around him, and found a more secluded position to sit down.

There sat a lonely white man, in his thirties, with a cool face and a slightly bald head, but this slight baldness was not only not ugly, but made him look more manly.

When the white man saw Yi Feiyang sitting down, he actually said "hi" very kindly. It looks like an old friend meeting and greeting each other, which means very familiar.

"Are you Chinese?" The bald white man asked him with his glass.

Yi Feiyang didn't bother to pay attention to him.

The white man said in a fluent London accent: "I am British, and I have come to the United States for a holiday." ”

It seems that he also regards Yi Feiyang as a vacationer. It's a lot of fun, too.

Although Yi Feiyang thought it was interesting, he still didn't speak.

The white man continued: "It seems that you are not sociable, and I used to be too...... But it's good to get used to it! By the way, what nationality are you? South Korea, Japan, or China? ”

"China." Yi Feiyang said lightly, and then snapped his fingers, "Bring me a glass of whiskey......" glanced at the bald white man's glass, "Give him a glass too!" ”

Yi Feiyang's generous invitation immediately aroused the favor of the white man.

"Ha, I love China! I heard that you are all very good at fighting, and I like your Bruce Lee...... Oh, I'm so excited, you know, I'm a kung fu enthusiast! ”

"Don't you think you talk a lot?" Yi Feiyang finally spoke.

"Oh no, I don't think so." The white man shrugged his shoulders and looked very handsome, "I used to be an athlete, do you know, I like sports, and I used to represent Great Britain at the World Swimming Championships......" the white man boasted.

"But I've loved your Chinese kung fu since I was a child, I grew up watching Bruce Lee, if it weren't for some reason, maybe I didn't learn swimming, but martial arts!"

Yi Feiyang didn't expect to meet a kung fu fan here, so he couldn't help but say: "It's a pity that you didn't learn, otherwise you would become an action star!" ”

"No, no, you're wrong." The white man suddenly said, "I'm already half an action star!" Yes, what I said is true, I'm an actor, well, how to put it, I used to be a professional swimmer, then I worked as a model, I also worked as a theater agent and so on, but now, I'm an actor! The bald-headed white man said solemnly.

"Heh, you're an actor?" Yi Feiyang glanced at him, it seems that this guy is really familiar, what kind of play has he played? !

"I mean really, dear friend, don't disbelieve." The white man was anxious, "I met a friend, a woman to be exact, a woman with very good skills in bed, and of course, I was very satisfied with her, so she introduced me to another friend." I'm sure she has a leg with this man, but whatever, the important thing is that this guy is a British director and he's about to start making a movie...... At that time, I thought it was a great opportunity, they needed a good actor to play a clever fraudster, and I just liked him. Oh my God, I think I'm pretty lucky to break into the film industry. The white man smiled a little smugly.

"Since then, I've taken on a couple of more films, um, I'm not a leading actor, but there's room to play, and lo and behold, now I'm in Hollywood, nominally on vacation, but actually I'm looking for opportunities, opportunities to film! Man, this is Hollywood, isn't it? There are many opportunities, not to mention someone as good as me! God, I'm going to be popular sooner or later! ”

Yi Feiyang saw such a confident guy for the first time, and couldn't help but smile: "Maybe your opportunity has come, after all, you worked hard to come to Los Angeles in order to act!" ”

The white man heard the sincerity in Yi Feiyang's words, and said with a smile: "I suddenly feel that you will be a very good friend, at least understanding...... Oh yes, I haven't introduced myself to you yet, maybe you'll hear my name again in the future, when I'm completely popular...... My name is – Jason Statham! The white man held out his hand.

What?!

Jason Statham?!

Yi Feiyang couldn't help but be stunned. (To be continued......)
