Chapter 703: Casting, a fighter in the movie

The crew of "The Wandering Earth 2" sent Lin Yingxue an audition invitation.

Although they have worked together many times before, they still have to audition.

However, she was also given a little preferential treatment, and Fang Xing and the casting director found another time to audition for her to cooperate with her work schedule.

Therefore, Lin Yingxue auditioned at the Ark Cultural Headquarters, at half past seven in the evening, and after dinner, she worked overtime to audition alone.

As soon as Lin Yingxue entered the door, she hurriedly apologized: "Director, I'm sorry, I still have to wait for me, there have been a lot of activities these days, sorry, sorry." ”

After all, she came out to do a studio independently, and the whole studio had to be raised by herself, so the work arrangement was relatively full.

Fang Xing just finished dinner, so he should eat and asked: "This drama does have more female characters, one has a scene, and the other has no play."

"Before you audition, ask you what you think, do you want to act?"

In "The Wandering Earth 2", there are two main female characters, one is "Han Duoduo" and the other is "Hao Xiaoxi".

"Hao Xiaoxi" has a growth line in the movie, growing from a newcomer to an excellent official spokesperson.

And her name is also very interesting, the homonym is "good news".

Another "Han Duoduo", the name is also very special.

The name "Han Duoduo", in "The Wandering Earth 1", is the name of "Liu Qi"'s sister.

However, the "Han Duoduo" in the two movies is not the same person.

In fact.

The story of The Wandering Earth 2 is a prequel to The Wandering Earth 1.

In other words, the timeline is first "The Wandering Earth 2" and then "The Wandering Earth 1".

"Han Duoduo" is actually the daughter of "Han Ziang", that is, the mother of "Liu Qi".

Later, "Han Duoduo" died of illness, and "Han Ziang", as a father, adopted a baby girl and gave the child's name to the baby girl.

For "Han Ziang", in fact, he regards his granddaughter as an emotional sustenance for his daughter.

"Han Duoduo" in "The Wandering Earth 2" is a female astronaut who has a lot of fighting scenes in the movie, and not every actress is willing to act.

Moreover, the movie is not a TV series.

The TV series can hang Weiya and use a stand-in to fool the past.

Movies are different, especially if the director has high requirements, and the difficult actions have to be done in person.

……

As early as the official announcement of the launch of "The Wandering Earth 2", Lin Yingxue already knew about the role of this movie.

In fact, every time she asks for a role, the goal is very clear, and she comes after thinking about it.

Therefore, she had already learned about the two roles of "Han Duoduo" and "Hao Xiaoxi" in advance.

The two characters can be said to be one "moving" and the other "static".

Relatively speaking, the role of "Hao Xiaoxi" is easier to play, you just need to stand there and perform.

However, in terms of the importance of the role, it is obvious that the role of "Han Duoduo" is heavier.

Because in the movie, "Han Duoduo" is the wife of "Liu Peiqiang" and the mother of "Liu Qi", and the plot runs through the two movies.

Of course, heavy roles also mean heavy responsibilities.

has cooperated with Fang Xing so many times, Lin Yingxue knows very well that if she takes on a role with a heavy role, she will definitely have higher requirements.

She was mentally prepared and took the initiative to ask: "Is it necessary to start fitness and training as soon as the performance of 'Han Duoduo' is finalized?" ”

Fang Xing nodded: "Because you are an astronaut, you have to look like an astronaut, and you can't be too weak." ”

Lin Yingxue had already thought about it before she came, nodded and replied, "I want to try 'Han Duoduo'." ”

In fact, Fang Xing guessed that she would audition for "Han Duoduo".

After all, she is the female number one of this movie, and if she acts well, the movie resources will be opened.

However, Fang Xing still made it clear first: "Don't worry, there are still some things to communicate, in the movie, the role of 'Han Duoduo' has short hair, not wearing a hair cover, but really cutting short hair." ”

Lin Yingxue nodded very simply and agreed: "Yes, my short hair is also very sassy." ”

As he spoke, he stroked the hair of the shawl with his hand, making a small joke.

Fang Xing pursed his lips and smiled: "Because of the needs of the plot, I have to shave my hair later." The character died of illness, and chemotherapy caused hair to fall out, so it was basically shaved. ”

When Lin Yingxue heard this, her expression froze.

But he quickly nodded and agreed: "Yes, shave it." ”

Nowadays, the wigs are very delicately made, and they have to be cut short anyway, and there is not much difference from shaving, and the hair will grow out in a month at most.

Fang Xing saw that she agreed, so he took out a page of script, handed it over and said, "Then play this, you are a female astronaut, and you were attacked by rebels on the space elevator."

"Before the attack, 'Liu Peiqiang' was holding a rose and wanted to confess to you.

"When the two of you were conducting aerospace training, you had a good impression of each other, and you were just one sentence away from confessing.

"However, as soon as 'Liu Peiqiang' took out the roses, the rebel attack began.

"You've been through a big war.

"You put a mechanical arm on your right hand and thrash the big guys of the rebels with one punch, which is very strong.

"In the stunned eyes of everyone, you urged 'Liu Peiqiang' to hurry up and hand you the roses."

After Lin Yingxue read the script, she felt that this scene was not difficult.

Actually, this is a comedy-style play.

A three-hour movie can't keep the audience immersed in a serious atmosphere, which will make the viewing experience much worse.

Therefore, some jokes are needed once in a while to set the mood.

After Lin Yingxue finished reading the script, she gestured with her left hand on her right arm: "The mechanical arm is very heavy, right?" ”

Fang Xing actually didn't think about the specific weight of the robotic arm, but it didn't matter, and replied casually: "Just think of it as a hundred catties." ”

Lin Yingxue's eyes widened, as if there was suddenly a hundred-pound iron lump on her right hand, her whole body was crooked, and her right hand was directly supported on the ground, and she couldn't move because of the weight.

She propped her right hand on the ground, and her left hand hooked her hand towards Fang Xing: "Give me the flowers!" ”

After watching it, Fang Xing found that when she played this part, she also maintained a very beautiful posture.

After all, she is a popular first-line actress, and in terms of shape, she really does a good job.

A producer of film and television dramas once said that even if an actress is crying, she must cry beautifully, otherwise it will not be an effective crying scene.

In fact, it's not just a crying scene, any scene needs beauty.

Fang Xing thought for a moment and said, "Try to be a little more silly, like a female man, astronauts should be real." ”

Lin Yingxue thought for a while, squatted directly on the ground, clenched her right hand into a fist and propped it on the ground, gasped for breath, and stretched out her hand to wave to Fang Xing: "Give me the flowers!" ”

Fang Xing thought about it for a moment and said, "Stand up, pull your hair up, and show your forehead." ”

Lin Yingxue did so, put her bangs on top of her head with both hands, and grabbed her hair to expose her forehead.

After reading it, Fang Xing nodded and said, "Yes, if you think about it, you can hurry up and start training immediately, there are only less than two months to go." ”

Lin Yingxue suddenly became happy when she heard this: "No problem, I have a schedule." ”

Since the official announcement of the launch of "The Wandering Earth 2", she has not taken on other film and television projects, only business activities.

The schedule of business activities is flexible and does not interfere with training.

……

has cooperated, and Fang Xing has shares in Lin Yingxue's studio, so the contract is relatively simple.

The schedule is paired, and the contract can be signed.

After finalizing the actors of "Han Duoduo", there is an important female role "Hao Xiaoxi" that needs to be auditioned.

Regarding the casting of "Hao Xiaoxi", Fang Xing has already been selected, but he needs to audition.

This time, I plan to use the company's artist An Xiaoran.

After An Xiaoran graduated from the acting major, she signed with Ark Culture and filmed some TV series, but the movies were relatively few.

She debuted as a teenager as the heroine of "Dark Glory", with a very high starting point and a very good development.

Later, in "Do You Know", she played "Sheng Rulan", and her popularity was also good.

After that, he took on a few costume dramas, and the results were okay, which can be regarded as a small hit, but there is still a distance from the first line.

After all, the role she played cannot be compared with Lin Yingxue.

Lin Yingxue made her debut in "Wulin Gaiden", and then she was the heroine of a big hit drama all the way.

An Xiaoran graduated from Normal College and went to learn acting, and her development speed was far less fast than Lin Yingxue.

Therefore, now An Xiaoran is a second-tier actor, and after several years of experience, she has acting experience.

Fang Xing plans to audition to see if she can be on the big screen.

The auditions of the company's artists are arranged separately on one day.

Since it is an artist of the company, there will be more requirements when auditioning.

When the crew notified An Xiaoran to audition, they mentioned by the way that she should change her career to formal wear auditions.

Because the role of "Hao Xiaoxi" is the official spokesperson, to speak in front of the media on behalf of the country, the dress needs to be very formal.

Of course, in the movie, "Hao Xiaoxi" is a newcomer, who grew up with "Zhou Zhezhi".

Therefore, "Hao Xiaoxi" can be more immature in the work of spokesperson, so that he can show growth and change.

On the day of the audition.

An Xiaoran came to the audition room in a professional suit, and her hair was tied neatly.

She has an undergraduate degree from a normal university, so she actually has a rehearsal for speaking on stage.

After Fang Xing finished reading the image, he nodded and said, "It's okay, let's play two scenes." ”

An Xiaoran took the script and tried two scenes, but there was no problem.

After all, this character doesn't need to have very big mood swings, as long as the image matches the character, the performance won't be too much of a problem.

……

After the two female roles were finalized, Ark Culture officially announced the cast according to the process.

Lin Yingxue plays "Han Duoduo", and An Xiaoran plays "Hao Xiaoxi".

As soon as this entertainment news came out, it rushed to the hot search again.

After all, Lin Yingxue and An Xiaoran's popularity is not low, especially Lin Yingxue, a popular super first-line actress, who is so popular that she is purple, and her salary is already the ceiling level among actresses.

Moreover, the two have another gimmick, that is, after "Know", the two will work together again.

In "Do You Know", Lin Yingxue plays "Sheng Minglan", An Xiaoran plays "Sheng Rulan", and the two are sisters.

Lin Yingxue won the Best Actress Award at the Sword Orchid Award for the role of "Sheng Minglan".

This time, the two men appear in the same work again.

And the long-term effect of "Do You Know" is very good, even if it has been broadcast for three or four years, the number of broadcasts is among the top among the old dramas.

[Second cooperation, a little bit looking forward to it.] I love watching "Know" so much. 】

Of course, there are also many voices of skepticism:

[Han Duoduo said that he was an astronaut in the movie, is Lin Yingxue like an astronaut? ] 】

[These two TV series are okay, is it really okay to act in movies? ] 】

[Although Lin Yingxue has acted in "Infernal Affairs", that scene is no different from a cameo, can she really act in a movie? ] 】

[An Xiaoran has never acted in a movie, and she will not be pitted if she plays such an important role directly, right? ] 】

[The image of an astronaut in my mind is definitely not what Lin Yingxue looks like. 】

[I feel that the movie is going to distort the image of astronauts.] If that's the case, the movie won't be watchable. 】

After similar doubts appeared, some people began to maliciously hype up the topic.

Lin Yingxue's studio pays attention to public opinion, and dealt with it as soon as the doubts appeared.

The studio's official Weibo posted a video of Lin Yingxue masturbating iron in the gym, and her forehead was full of sweat from practice.

Moreover, she has cut her hair short and adapted to the role in advance.

The video is accompanied by the text below, starting training for "The Wandering Earth 2".

As soon as this dynamic came out, it immediately shattered the topic of malicious hype.

Netizens are still very objective, and the content of the discussion began to be positive:

[Yes, at least the attitude is good, the hair is cut, and the training is serious.] 】

[I cut my hair before I joined the group, I recognize this attitude, and I hope that I don't pull it when I perform in the movie. 】

……

The other side.

Fang Xing communicated with the higher authorities and applied for the use of some important weapons of the country in the movie.

Because in "The Wandering Earth 2", there is a scene of air combat, and fighter jets need to appear.

If he could, of course, Fang Xing hoped that the most advanced fighter in China would appear in the movie, that is, the J20.

However, J20 is really not something that anyone can use if they want to, and it needs to be reviewed by a superior department.

As for whether it will be possible to obtain permission to use the image of J20 in the movie, it is difficult to say.

The film project has already been launched, and it is impossible to stop because of this incident.

While the crew submitted the application to the higher authorities, they were also arranging backup plans.

In case the higher authorities do not allow the J20 to appear in the movie, then another fighter scheme will need to be used.

Not only J20, but also Dongfeng Express, a lot of military equipment, need to apply to the higher authorities.

The crew also arranged a backup plan.

After all, it is a science fiction film, and if the higher authorities do not allow the use of the existing image of military equipment, then draw a science fiction fighter to come out.

Thankfully, nothing happened in case.

Two months after the preparation of "The Wandering Earth 2", the higher authorities approved the application to allow the film to use the image of the country's military equipment.

After all, there are "The Wandering Earth 1" in the front, and it has been praised by the official media, and the concept of "community with a shared future for mankind" has also been proposed, and the value orientation is positive.

Therefore, "The Wandering Earth 2" applied for the image of the country's military equipment and got permission.

Of course, after the film is produced, it will have to be reviewed by the higher authorities, and if the production effect is not good, it may still be sent back for revision.
