Chapter 165 The audition begins, and the actor Liu Peiqiang is determined!
North Film and Television Group is one of the five giants.
The prestige in the industry is still very high.
Those who are cleared will not have any complaints.
Sci-fi isn't just the producers who know this is a real challenge.
Those who come to audition also know that the chances are slim.
In addition, even those superstars have been invited out of the field.
Others have nothing to say.
Even a little dark in my heart.
That's why these giant companies dare to take "them" seriously.
Other smaller film and television companies really don't have this courage.
Under Xu Kai's methodical command.
And those actors who have worked with Chen Ming in the past work together.
Or help persuade unqualified personnel to quit the line.
Or start to arrange for the people who come to audition to line up according to the requirements on the role list introduction.
The scene was quite lively.
Fortunately, Dongshan Film and Television City is not very open to the public.
It's not like Qin Island is both a shooting base and a tourist attraction.
Here, reporters are not allowed to be present.
Otherwise, with so many stars gathered on the scene.
It's bound to be another big news.
In particular, there are many young actors with extremely high remuneration who are not eligible to enter the audition scene.
This kind of thing is undoubtedly the audience's favorite to see.
Because these people are known as super first-line stars in the industry, but the title in the folk is not very good.
"Bad film maker" describes people like "them".
Under the preparation of many parties.
The ten studio auditions will be arranged soon.
After all, it is the scene of the audition of the North Film and Television Group.
Characters are screened at the same time in all studios.
Height, age, weight, appearance and mastery of lines only need to pass the test.
The information of these actors will be sent to the backstage.
Chen Ming and Zhang Yao only need to sit in the background and can see all the information.
This set of processes is almost on par with assembly line operations.
The audition begins at the studio.
The backstage has already received the information of qualified actors one after another.
Chen Ming dragged the mouse to browse one by one.
Most of these actors who came to participate in the audition wanted to audition for the role of Liu Peiqiang.
The audition has just started for half an hour.
From ten studios, 27 actors with rigid conditions in various aspects were selected to play Liu Peiqiang.
Even Chen Ming has to admire, this kind of efficiency is really high.
Actors with strong acting skills can audition much faster than others.
Seeing the performance of the crew, Zhang Yao nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile, "How about Director Chen, if we choose this way, our speed should be able to speed up.
"It is true that there are generally not many characters in science fiction films."
"At the current speed, all the roles can be finalized in one day.
"President Zhang, do you know this actor?"
While talking, Chen Ming pointed to the computer screen and looked at Zhang Yao.
"He, Bao Mingliang, this person is quite famous." Zhang Yao just stretched his head and glanced and recognized it.
"This person is the actor with the most hope of becoming a first-line star in our Dragon Kingdom martial arts genre in recent years."5
"The foundation is quite good, and the reputation in the circle is also OK. 35
"There have been no bad scandals.
If he appears in a space propaganda film, his background is fine and will not have any adverse effects.
Chen Ming nodded, "That's okay, I read his profile, and he has made a lot of movies."
"In terms of acting, we should pass the test.
Zhang Yao was silent for a while, and then said: "Acting skills, I really can't describe it.
"For actors in martial arts films, only the villains and the decent are more obvious in their image shaping."
"The other things to watch are generally on the action, the acting can only be said to be okay, but the professionalism is very desirable."5
"For a martial arts type of movie, Bao Mingliang dares to fight and dare to fight, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is performing it with his life. 35
"Just in terms of acting, it still needs to be polished, unlike those famous martial arts stars."
"You can play hooligans, you can play wicked killers, you can play heroes, you can be good, you can be evil, and you can be funny. 99
"Bao Mingliang is more or less hot in this regard. 99
"But in science fiction films, his acting skills are fine.
Chen Ming took a serious look at his profile again.
"Okay, there should be no problem with this person playing the role of Liu Peiqiang.
"Mr. Zhang, arrange for someone to invite him in."
Zhang Yao nodded with a smile, and shouted to the staff next to him: "Go to Studio No. 6 and bring Bao Mingliang, who just participated in the audition, please come here.
"Okay Mr. Zhang.
About four minutes or so.
Bao Mingliang followed behind the staff to the backstage.
When he first listened to Mr. Zhang's invitation, he was still wondering.
Can be called Mr. Zhang here.
Then there is only the person in charge of the North Film and Television Group.
But the problem is that even though the two are familiar with each other's names, they have never greeted each other.
When I came to the backstage room, I saw Zhang Yao and Chen Ming sitting together.
He immediately understood what was going on.
It must have been during the audition just now that he played well.
That's why Chen Ming noticed him.
For him, it was a godsend.
Bao Mingliang is currently in a period of rapid career development.
If he can get on the big boat Chen Ming, his ascent speed will become "々嗖".
Jumping directly to the top is not a problem.
Mind turn.
Bao Mingliang had already figured out everything.
Seeing the other party standing at the door in a daze, Chen Ming smiled and pointed to the chair in front of him.
"Hello, Mr. Bao. 35
"I'm Chen Ming, I just watched your audition video.
"I have also read your profile and profile."
"I specially invite you to come over for a retest."
"Introduce yourself first, and then talk about your views on science fiction films.
Bao Mingliang nodded hurriedly.
Go into the room.
Confront these two bosses.
He really didn't dare to sit there directly.
Just stand.
"Hello Director Chen, hello President Zhang."
"My name is Bao Mingliang, I was born in Longdu in 1982. 99
'He is 1.75 meters tall and weighs 75 kilograms.
"I have participated in the Longdu sports team, the martial arts team, and also participated in some martial arts movies."
"I don't know much about science fiction films. This type of film and television is divided into soft science fiction and hard science fiction. 35
"Soft sci-fi is the bold development of imagination to build a sci-fi world without considering science and technology and the laws of physics.
"In Western science fiction, most of them are of this type.
"Hard sci-fi is based on existing science and technology, and deduces within a reasonable range.
"It may be exaggerated, but it will never go beyond this range."
"I personally prefer the hard sci-fi genre because it follows the laws of physics and emphasizes the rationality of scientific details."
"There is a stricter plot progression.
"It's more about exploring the impact and development of cutting-edge technological inventions on human society."
"In this style of film, the scientific nature of the plot and the accuracy of the details are valued. 99
"People are fascinated by the genre, infinite. 35
Chen Ming nodded after listening to the other party's statement.
It can be seen that this bag Mingliang is not a special supplementary lesson before departure.
When he was talking about hard science fiction, his expression was a little excited.
Chen Ming can still clearly distinguish whether it is true feelings or on-the-spot acting.
It seems that Bao Mingliang also likes to watch those western science fiction films.
"I saw you coming to audition, and the role of Liu Peiqiang was chosen.
"You're good in every way and fit the role."
"So in your opinion, what kind of sci-fi film is "The Wandering Earth"?"
"Hard sci-fi."
Bao Mingliang didn't even think about it, and answered directly.
"Although I haven't read the complete script, I compare the data based on the analysis of some lines. 95
"I can be very sure that "The Wandering Earth" is a hard science fiction film and television work.
"And it's still a hard science fiction full of our Dragon Kingdom culture."
"Most of the soft science fiction is imagined out of thin air, and it can be analyzed based on some lines.
"At least I didn't see any words related to soft science fiction in your character script.
Chen Ming nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, at the audition site just now, you have already tried the movie.
"I don't need to make you try again. 39
"You go to Xu Kai, the head of the crew, and say that you have won the role of Liu Peiqiang.
Ask him to give you the full script, and go back and study it well. "
"Then leave your contact details on set and you can go back.""
Bao Mingliang did not expect this trip to be so smooth.
Some people looked at Chen Ming in disbelief.
Zhang Yao tapped the table with a smile, "What's the matter, Mr. Bao?"
"Didn't you come here to audition for the role of Liu Peiqiang?"
"Now Director Chen has agreed with you to play this role.
"Why don't you speak.
Only then did Bao Mingliang react.
He hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Director Chen, I was so excited just now."
"I didn't expect to get this role so smoothly.
"Thank you very much for Director Chen's trust, I will definitely prepare well.
Chen Ming waved his hand, "It's alright, go find Xu Kai first. 35
"Let him stop Liu Peiqiang's audition in the studio and try his best to select other actors.
"After you take the script and leave your contact information, you can go back.
"Before the shooting, we will inform you in advance.
Bao Mingliang nodded and left the room.
Zhang Yao watched the other party leave and smiled, "Brother Chen, you are now the God of Wealth in our industry.
"Bao Mingliang in this circle, although the reputation is not very high."
"But he is also an absolute potential stock, and it is very likely that he will become a hot martial arts actor in our country in the future."
"It is said that some time ago, he was also preparing for a military type movie."
"Now that you've starred in "The Wandering Earth" again, this decision of yours is really a blessing for Bao Mingliang.
Chen Ming shook his head, "I've heard of this person before, but I'm not very familiar with him.
"He is able to achieve today's success because he is more capable."
"Otherwise, even if I wanted to find him to play the role, he would not be able to support the role.
"In the end, it's up to him.
"It has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Yao was silent for a while, and did not tangle more on this topic.
"Brother Chen, at the current speed.
"I am afraid that the actors can be confirmed in two days at most.
"But the problem is, the filming props we commissioned the prop company to make were not produced so quickly."
"It will take at least two or three months to complete.
"How to arrange this period?"
Chen Ming nodded, "I've thought about this for a long time."
"Our Dragon Kingdom's science fiction films have always been weak in the world.
"Even if it has been filmed before, and some actors have participated in it, the results of the filming are not ideal.
"That is to say, we now, from the actors to the crew members, have little knowledge of this genre.
"Just before the props are made, let's practice more."
"Some shots that don't require complicated props should be shot first, and then it's more than a few times to find the feeling."
"Wait while filming and practice their acting skills.
Zhang Yao smiled a little embarrassedly, "Speaking of which, it's really embarrassing. In the past, our North Film and Television Group also produced a lot of science fiction films."
"But the effect is not very good. 35
"From the current point of view, it's simply horrible.
"As a result, the audience is becoming more and more disappointed with the current science fiction films of Long Kingdom, and the abuse is getting louder and louder.
"In recent years, we rarely shoot this genre anymore."
Chen Ming shook his head, "Mr. Zhang, you don't have to take this to heart."
"You North Film and Television focuses on comedy, romance, animation, action, thriller, crime and other film and television directions."
"If you're shooting a sci-fi genre, it's too broad."
"No matter how good a team is, if they shoot with such a large span, the result will definitely not be so satisfactory. 35
"Dare to try, it's already very good.
"If our film and television industry in Longguo guards our own one-acre and three-point land, we don't care about other types.
"`~Then our global film and television status will only get lower and lower. 99
Zhang Yao sighed, "Yes, it is good to dare to try."5
"But I have to admire that those countries in the West are really willing to invest in filming.
"And our Dragon Kingdom has gone the wrong way over the years."
"Show more things on the screen on the face, no longer consider acting, no longer consider the rationality of the plot. 35
"As long as you are handsome and beautiful, you can get a good profit by twisting and jumping in front of the camera.
"This kind of wrong concept has made our film and television industry in Long Kingdom stagnant for more than ten years.
"Nowadays, the salaries of young actors continue to rise, and their acting skills are declining.
"The martial arts type film is slowly withdrawing from the audience's attention, because it has reached an embarrassing situation where there is no successor. 99
"When you jump up and down, and you can become famous by acting cute and cute, who wants to sharpen a sword for ten years and work hard to practice kung fu and make martial arts films."5
"It's not just the martial arts genre, the former military genre, sci-fi genre, and horror genre are slowly declining."
"Only youth idol types, as well as comedy types, always occupy the screen, which has to be said to be a pity."
"But it's much better now. Speaking of which, I really want to thank you, Brother Chen. 35
"You've made military films popular, and you've also brought war films with you.
"Let more and more film and television companies realize that the era of jumping and jumping only by looking at the face is over."
"Real film and television works still have to have hard conditions that can be obtained."
"Otherwise, just stick to the old method, and once other types change, it's easy to overwhelm them."
“These companies can’t sit still very quickly.
Chen Ming smiled lightly and said modestly: "The times create products, and these changes are inevitable."
"It has nothing to do with me."
"Even if I don't shoot, the audience won't be willing to do it in a few years at most.
"Aren't there many audiences who oppose those mindless plots now?
"If there is a market, someone will do it, and when these markets are gone, who would be willing to do these useless things again.
"Each generation has its tastes, and other emerging types besides the traditional ones. 35
"It will last ten years at most.
"It's like something that the post-90s like, but the post-00s don't like.
"Similarly, the post-00s generation is so popular now, and the post-00s generation will not buy it. 35
"The market caters to these needs, and when these people in need change their ideas and change their minds."
“There is no such market.35
Zhang Yao couldn't help laughing, "Haha, Brother Chen is right." (Hao Nuo Zhao)
"I didn't expect you to study this aspect quite thoroughly."
"By the way, brother, aren't you going to choose amateur actors?
"Let me introduce two to you, they happen to be a man and a woman, and they are similar to the script, they are brothers and sisters.
"It's also a pair, who just debuted and are not well-known."
"They are both interns who have not yet graduated from the North Film Academy. I have read the profiles of these two people, and they are very hardworking."5
"Would Brother Chen consider giving them a chance?
Chen Ming smiled, "Whether there is a chance or not, it all depends on whether they can play the role themselves."
"However, I am very sure about President Zhang's eyes.
"I still remember when you filmed "Bright Sword", you recommended Wang Songhe, an old artist, to me at the theater."
"Isn't it suitable for him to play the protagonist Li Yunlong.
"Since you said that these two amateur groups are okay, let them come over and try it out."
"Whether it works or not, it depends on their own performance."
Zhang Yao nodded, "Yes, the opportunity and platform are given to them. Whether they can grasp it or not depends on their own ability."
"But I have read the script, and in the script, the acting requirements of these two people are not so high."
"I've already contacted, and I guess the time should be up now.
Chen Ming responded while looking at the computer screen.
See him so serious.
Zhang Yao also turned his head and looked over.
"Huh? Isn't this person a star in Hong Kong?"5
"Why did you come here to audition?"
"Don't say it, it's quite suitable for him to play Han Ziang at his age.
Chen Ming nodded.
"Yeah, in the script, Han Ziang's age requirement is relatively high.""
"I've seen other roles at the moment, and a lot of them have come to audition.""
"But in this role, there have been very few people.
"This Xiangjiang star looks okay.
Zhang Yao replied with a smile: "This person basically doesn't need to be looked at. As long as he plays a supporting role, he can play it well for you."5
"Whether it's comedy or tragic, it can hold up the whole play.
"In the past few years, when I got older, I took fewer scenes. In the past few years, he was quite popular."
"The winner of the Best Supporting Actor Award is him, Chi Zhengda, who is called an uncle in the circle.
"This is a real old actor, and there is nothing to say about his acting skills.
