Chapter 298: Movie Preparation

After separating from Lin Ziyi, Xu Nan immediately began the preparation of the movie "Three Thousand Warriors of Sparta".

The genuine movie "Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" is about half a month away, so Xu Nan needs to complete a series of preparations such as filming, production, and post-release within half a month.

This is an impossible job for other films, but for Xu Nan, there is still plenty of time.

He can shoot and produce in just seven days, and spend the rest of his time relaxing and practicing boxing.

Nanhai Film and Television has taken shape, and preparing a movie has become a simple matter, Xu Nan just briefly said how to shoot in the conference room, and George instructed the staff to arrange most of the work.

The ability shown by George, a veteran producer, also made Xu Nan determined.

"George, I see your performance, I have decided, you will be in charge of the company's next movie."

In the United States, the director-centered system and the producer-centered system are parallel, and there is not much difference between a film's director-centered and producer-based.

There are many classic movies that are shot under the direction of the producer, and the director is sometimes just a pure shooting tool.

Xu Nan's main purpose in coming to the rice country was to make money, he couldn't stay here for a long time, he needed to cultivate a successor.

George is a good one, he's a veteran producer with a lot of experience.

Although he had some small unpleasantness with him before, he has been working very hard recently, and his attitude towards Xu Nan is also very respectful.

As long as George's performance is fine, he will be in charge of managing the company in the future, and he can even give him some shares to win him over.

George was stunned for a moment, feeling very surprised.

However, he is also a veteran producer, although he used to be responsible for shooting the kind of underground movies that did not enter the stream, but he also had a lot of experience.

is always in charge of a movie, although it surprises him, but it is not out of shape.

It's just a copycat porcelain piece that doesn't enter the stream, and the cost is only hundreds of thousands of dollars.

He is happy that the company's status has improved and that he has been recognized by Xu Nan, a talented director.

George worked harder, and Xu Nan's pie added a hard-working buff to him, and it was the kind that lasted for a long time.

With George's efforts, the crew quickly prepared almost, and the next step was the choice of actors.

Xu Nan encountered some trouble in this link.

The ancient Greek city-state of Sparta was an iron-blooded city-state, and the city-state had a rule that when a child was born, it needed to be examined, and if it was physically disabled or sick, or even too weak, it would be directly abandoned.

Children who are not abandoned should start training from an early age and continue to train until adulthood, because only in this way can the strongest warriors be raised.

The genuine "Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" undoubtedly has this setting, because they filmed the story of the Spartan warriors defeating the Persian army.

Although "Three Thousand Warriors of Sparta" is a pirated version, the basic setting cannot be changed, and the story is also the story of the Spartans defeating the Persian army.

Such a setting determines that the main actor of the movie must be a man, and he must also be a strong man, a macho man who can beat eight at a glance.

This kind of actor is not easy to find.

And in this kind of movie, Eliza, who has a thin waist and long legs, is destined not to be the protagonist, but can only be a vase.

The protagonist of the movie must be a man, or a man who can be beaten at a glance.

Or do you choose all the thin people who can't help but be weak to create a sense of contrast?

Xu Nan suddenly had an idea in his mind.

This idea is really feasible, anyway, it is a copycat porcelain movie, with a group of weak thin people to play the famous Spartan warriors, which are famous for their strength, and the sense of nonsense and contrast is directly full.

While the audience is speechless, it should be very joyful to watch.

But after thinking about it carefully, Xu Nan still gave up this tempting idea.

It's not that I think it's bad or anything, it's just that the conditions are not there.

The homogenization of actors in the entertainment industry is very serious, there are a lot of handsome men and beautiful women, and seven or eight handsome guys and girls can be killed by throwing a brick at random.

It's true that it's a bit hard to find a fit-bodied actor, but you can still find it if you want to find it.

But it's hard to find a thin man who can't help but be weak.

Of course, if you look for it with your heart and spend a certain amount of energy, you will definitely be able to find it.

But this is just a copycat porcelain piece used to make money, and it takes so much energy to make yourself uncomfortable?

After thinking carefully about the difficulty of finding thin actors and bodybuilders, Xu Nan still decided to find bodybuilders.

It's really not good, and the requirements can be relaxed a little.

In fact, Xu Nan still underestimated his appeal in the actor group.

After he released the casting requirements, a large number of well-built macho men flocked to him, trying his best to have a faceless role in the movie.

Hollywood is a vanity fair, and countless boys and girls who chase their dreams run here every day, hoping to become glamorous stars and live in the spotlight.

But this kind of person is often one in ten thousand, and if you want to become famous, strength, luck, and relationships are indispensable.

Xu Nan can be regarded as a relatively famous director in the United States, and these actors also know that his movies are very unstylish and embarrassing, but for the sake of their dreams, they still came.

It's not difficult to go from one to two, it's not difficult to go from two to three, but it's very difficult to go from zero to one, many people just lack an opportunity, as long as there is an opportunity, they can get up.

It may be embarrassing to say that the copycat touches the porcelain, but no matter what, this is a serious theatrical movie, not the kind of underground film that can only be compared to the video tape channel.

Moreover, the lower limit of the cottage porcelain movie is guaranteed, and the popularity is not low, which can be regarded as a strong stroke in terms of qualifications, and you can use this pedal to climb a higher ladder.

Looking at a group of actors who can be bodybuilders scratching their heads and posing in various ways, and even some want to do crooked ways towards him, Xu Nan can only sigh that the people of the United States are very curly, and some places are even more curly than in China.

Fortunately, Xu Nan easily found the actors of the three thousand warriors of Sparta, especially the actor Leonida, he chose a very handsome man with eight-pack abs, named Butler.

This actor is not much worse than the protagonist of the original Spartan Three Hundred Warriors, and even surpasses it in appearance.

But it's a pity that there is a big gap between the fame of the two, but fortunately, Xu Nan doesn't care about this.

The actors have been selected, the crew has been prepared, the crew is all ready, and the preparation for the film has been completed.

The three thousand warriors of Sparta have officially started shooting!
