Chapter 46: Casting of "Flower Thousand Bone" (4/8)
"Three battle scenes, you must make sufficient preparations in advance..."
"Rest assured, we've got you covered!"
It's not that "The Great Wall" only has three battle scenes, if you break it down, it's a total of five battle scenes;
The three battles that Shen Mengxi said were very important battles, the first one, the gluttonous army attacked, and the actor realized the situation;
In the second scene, the palace marshal sacrificed, and the male protagonist really felt the unity and the fight for the people;
The third battle is the decisive battle, and when the ammunition is about to run out, the old lady will lead the army to arrive...
The others quickly left the office that temporarily served as a conference room, leaving only Shen Mengxi, the two assistant directors and a few producers, including Zhao Jinsong.
"Regarding the candidate for the palace marshal, I suggest Zhang Hanyu!"
After the assistant changed the tea for everyone, Ye Ning, the producer Wanda found, was the first to speak: "His acting skills are good enough, and he has a certain reputation..."
Zhao Jinsong said unceremoniously: "Is it internationally renowned?"
"Who is the Chinese candidate with international reputation? Hu Ge or Guo Jingfei?"
"Guo Jingfei really has international fame, and he just received the invitation of "Die Hard 5" and "Wolverine 2" two days ago!"
Ye Ning looked at Shen Mengxi: "Director, what do you think?"
Shen Mengxi put down the teacup: "I have already sent an invitation to the candidate for the palace marshal, and I have to wait for his consent, military advisor, tentatively Chen Daoming..."
"Can you tell me who it is?"
Zhao Jinsong replied: "Who else can it be? has international reputation, qualified acting skills, and is popular overseas..."
Several people looked at each other, and then asked, "Cheng Long?"
"Yes, that's him!"
"For the next two weeks, our main job is to finalize the main characters and a few main supporting characters. ”
"When will filming officially start?"
"This will have to wait until this side of Xiangshan is completed..."
What kind of work is done?
The reason why "The Great Wall" chose to shoot in Xiangshan was because of absolute cooperation, and even proposed to help build a mini Great Wall, which is one square kilometer large...
That's trouble-free, many scenes are filmed directly here!
Why looking for Cheng Long?
In fact, this is Uncle Long's own proposal to join - a Sino-US co-production of a big production, also known as "The Great Wall".
Shen Mengxi thinks it's quite suitable!
When Uncle Long can still fight, he will pick up a handful of wool...
And Cheng Long's salary in recent years has not been high, and after the box office failure of "Agent Next Door", his salary dropped to about $6 million.
In addition, his international popularity is high...
The most important thing is that Uncle Long is here, and he can serve as a martial arts instructor with a family class.
Kill two birds with one stone!
Zhang Hanyu... Let's continue to play with Huayi.
......
One day in early March, Liu Shishi had just finished an event and got in the car to return to the crew.
"Strange Man Yizhimei 2"...
The most obvious change in the transition from an actor to a star is that there are more activities, and it is difficult to stay in the crew for three months with peace of mind.
It's also impossible for you to refuse, because these activities are all about giving money.
She needs money very much - if she starts a company, she has to be raised!
What do celebrities rely on to make money? It's nothing more than filming, commercial acting, and endorsements.
You say investment?, money makes money...
Hehe...
Not all celebrities are called Ren Quan!
Leaning on the back seat, she fell asleep, the phone rang, she took out her phone, it was Tang Yan.
"Hey, Sugar Candy..."
"Flower Thousand Bone"... I know that this drama was created in cooperation with Mango Channel, and Sister Cai said that this drama should become a new benchmark for Xianxia dramas. ”
"Do you want to play the heroine? Then you should find Sister Cai or Director Lin..."
"They decided Zhao Liying?
"Don't worry, I'll ask again. ”
Why else, of course, Zhao Liying is more suitable...
Who is Yoo Shi Shi asking?
She... dialed Yang Xiaomi's phone, who was picking her feet... No, it should be nail polish...
Took a fashion shoot to show off sexy.
The photographer said that the red nails are sexy!
Fool, turtle!
That's not called sexy, that's called coquettish.
Everyone who sits on the stage is like that...
But Yang Xiaomi still went back to the lounge, found nail polish, and wiped it on her toenails...
She can do this kind of thing by herself, and the assistant thinks her feet stink...
Not to mention, it's pretty good!
Ahem.
Then, Yoo Shishi's phone called.
"Hey..."Flower Thousand Bone"?
"The Xianxia drama that benchmarks "Fairy Sword"..."
"Tangtang can't play the heroine? Why? I'll ask Sister Cai!"
......
The company is very large, the project is constantly being carried out, and Shen Mengxi cannot be all-encompassing.
General film and television drama projects, after the project is established, he simply glances at the protagonist and the like, and then he doesn't care, it's not a particularly valued project, he doesn't even bother to sweep it, and the power is completely decentralized!
"Flower Thousand Bone" is not an ordinary project, it should be regarded as a key TV series project.
With a total investment of 72 million, the production cost of a single episode is as high as 1.2 million, and the special effects team tracks the whole process, and the Xianxia drama will have the appearance of Xianxia!
In terms of casting, Bai Zihua hired Yan Kuan, who was cold and paralyzed, and he was handsome, if it weren't for the fact that several of his actors were too young, they wouldn't need to be hired externally;
The heroine must be Zhao Liying, she is suitable for playing this kind of quirky role;
The other roles are chosen by the production team, and they must give priority to their own people, and they are not allowed to use Ma Ke!
Does his appearance have anything to do with a peerless beautiful man?
The crew seems to have chosen an anti-string actor named Lu Zhuo...
About "Flower Thousand Bone", Shen Mengxi knows so much.
With the way he manages everything day by day, how can he have time to pay attention to an ironclad TV series project?
So, about the secret war of casting, I don't know at all!
By the time he knew, he was almost openly torn apart...
......
Mengxi's Eight Golden Flowers, Liu Yifei Needless to say, Yang Xiaomi, Zhang Hanyun, and Liu Shishi are already popular, Wan Qian doesn't care much about these, Tong Yali takes the route of life dramas, and now, only Zhao Liying and Tangtang are shouting 'I want to be popular'.
Nazha also wanted to shout twice, but unfortunately, her qualifications were too shallow, and the company spoiled her enough, "Xuanyuan Sword" female number one...
The newly joined Jin Daxi, Peng Xiaoran, and Di Li Rouba haven't yet reached the time to shout - the most basic procedure of face brushing has not yet been left.
Zhao Liying and Tangtang are both famous, the former and Xu Guangtou's "Da Nei Low Hand" have been broadcast, and "The Wrong Mandarin Duck" is to be broadcast;
The latter "Three Thousand Golds of the Xia Family" was launched, and the ratings were very high...
Of course, word-of-mouth is like that.
Both of them need a masterpiece!
In comparison, Zhao Liying has just finished filming "The Legend of Lu Zhen" and the foreign drama "Mufu Fengyun", she should not be in a hurry to take on the new drama, Tangtang is a latecomer after all, although she is close to Yang Xiaomi and Liu Shishi, but when she was there, the good resources had basically been divided...
The company gave her the "Impeccable" two-part series and a movie, "Border"...
She wasn't very satisfied...
"Flower Thousand Bone", film and game linkage development, with an investment of 72 million, everything indicates that this will be a hit drama!
She wanted to compete for the lead actress.
