Chapter 1239 The Economic Base Determines the Superstructure

Being harassed by insiders was so hard to resist, Ning Hao couldn't help but call Li Mu, first complained about what happened to him in the past few days, and then asked him when he would be able to return to Beijing, or when he could return to Beijing. Confirm the casting of "Flying Tigers".

Li Mu did not hide anything from Ning Hao, and told him that he would return to Beijing in the next two days, but regarding the casting of "Flying Tigers", among the leading actors of Huaxia actors, he only confirmed one heroine, that is, he always The only favorite little girl, Du Wei.

Ning Hao had read the script of "Flying Tigers", so he recognized Du Wei's image as the Chinese heroine very much, and said with a smile: "I knew you would definitely give this role to Du Wei. To be honest, Du Wei is also my character. One of the best actors imaginable."

"Heroes see the same thing." Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "Du Wei is a young girl, but her acting skills are indeed very good. The most important thing is that she has never studied acting, but she just has that kind of acting skills." That's what confidence is."

"Confidence?" Ning Hao asked him: "Shouldn't it be called acting?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "It's not acting skills, it's self-confidence."

In Li Mu's view, self-confidence is the foundation of acting skills.

People without self-confidence, when in front of the camera, can't even control their expressions well, and have to think about where to put their hands for a long time, let alone acting.

Only those who are confident enough, who can face the camera calmly or who are not affected by the camera at all, have the soil to cultivate acting skills.

The prerequisite for acting like something is not to have any fear or nervousness about acting at all. First of all, you can ensure that you can play yourself well in front of the camera. If you don’t have self-confidence, you can’t even play your own role well in front of the camera.

In fact, Li Mu had already discovered this problem through some tiny details.

Regardless of whether it is a western country or an eastern country, TV stations often do some street interviews. However, it can be clearly found that ordinary people in eastern countries, mainly in China, will reveal an obvious nervousness when facing the camera, but When ordinary people in western countries are interviewed, most of them can talk freely in front of the camera. Whether it is conversation, expression, or manner, they are all very natural, and there is no sign of nervousness. This is the importance of self-confidence.

Li Mu feels that people in Eastern countries generally lack self-confidence. In fact, this is mainly because Eastern countries, especially the Chinese people, have been bullied by all countries in the world for so many years, and there are constant wars. After the long-term difficult period and the stage of self-sufficiency, after the reform and opening up, the living conditions of the Chinese people gradually improved, and the people's self-confidence began to regain.

Chinese people in the 21st century are far more confident than at the end of the last century. However, it will take a long process to fully regain the confidence in the bone marrow of a nation.

In contrast to Western countries, most of them are old imperialist countries. They have established colonies all over the world since the Age of Discovery, and have led the development of industry, technology and economy in the world since the Industrial Revolution. People in other countries are still oppressed, When they were still working hard to fill their stomachs, they had already got rid of the troubles about food and turned to pursue a higher material and spiritual world.

Just because Westerners have been at the forefront of the world since modern times, the nationals of Western countries have had self-confidence far exceeding that of Easterners throughout modern times. This difference in self-confidence will subtly lead to many very Special social phenomena, for example, in Western developed countries, Chinese people are often discriminated against or treated unfairly, but in China, Westerners can always get more lenient and courteous treatment.

In addition, National's acting skills will also be deeply affected by this lack of self-confidence, so that 95% of the extras have no acting skills at all, and they will bring a deep sense of disobedience when they appear in front of the camera. Actors from professional colleges are no more than ordinary public accounts, and 80% of their acting skills are below the passing line.

If they have enough self-confidence in their bones, their overall acting skills will rise by more than one level.

Looking at Du Wei again, this girl always has a calm self-confidence, which is related to her family conditions and her growth environment. The theory that the economic base determines the superstructure has gained a lot in her. It is a big proof that children from rich families will be more confident than ordinary people since childhood, and those children who have lived in an environment where they have been worrying about daily necessities and worrying about what to eat and wear tomorrow, it is difficult to see the halo of self-confidence in their bodies .

Having been a human being for two lifetimes, Li Mu too can feel how huge the economic foundation can bring to a person.

If it wasn't for rebirth, if it wasn't for the advanced thinking in his mind that surpassed this world for more than ten years, it would be difficult for Li Mu to truly have self-confidence.

In fact, Li Mu himself has always been a typical young man who lacked self-confidence in his previous life, and his family conditions were relatively difficult, so that he developed a cautious character since he was a child.

Too good things are not willing to eat, too expensive clothes are not willing to buy;

Going to high-end restaurants will feel cramped and uncomfortable, and going to high-end shopping malls will feel like a pain in the back;

When talking with good friends, he has excellent eloquence, and he can talk at length at every turn, but his voice trembles nervously when he is called up by the teacher to recite a text in class;

It’s hard to go abroad, and when you land and pass the customs, you will be inexplicably nervous. When you speak English with foreigners, even if it’s just a simple Excuse-me, you have to brew it in your heart for a long time before you can export it...

These are all the influences of the economic foundation on the self in the previous life in a subtle way.

Thinking of this, Li Mu especially hopes that young people in Huaxia will be more confident and less inferior in the process of growing up. He also hopes that in the next 20 to 30 years, when the post-00s grow up, they will be able to have As confident as a Westerner.

Regarding self-confidence, Li Mu has a lot of feelings, but Ning Hao does not have such a deep understanding. In contrast, he is more interested in Li Mu's choice of male lead, and asked Li Mu if he has thought it through, and who is the role of the male lead? Come play.

Li Mu replied: "To be honest, I haven't figured out who the leading actor should be, because the definition of this role means that its actor should be played by Tom Hanks, Leonardo and Anne Hathaway. If there is too much difference in acting skills in a rival show, then the audience will definitely feel a very strong sense of disobedience, but in my impression, actors who can have this kind of strength are basically artists of the older generation, and artists of the younger generation. I really can’t find it among actors.”

Ning Hao hummed, and said: "This role is really not easy to find, his requirements are too high, but the female lead's requirements will be lower, after all, she only needs to play well with Leonardo. "

Speaking of this, Ning Hao suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Boss, "The Family of Gold Fans" will be broadcast soon. I heard that the quality of this TV series is still very high. You seem to be familiar with the lead actor Chen Kun. What do you think of this man?"

"Chen Kun..." Li Mu smacked his lips. He had worked with him before. In "Old Boy", he was asked to act as the second male lead. The whole cooperation has been very smooth, and Chen Kun is relatively humble. The degree of cooperation is also very high, but Li Mu always feels that his acting skills seem almost meaningless.

The Chen Kun in Li Mu's impression, Chen Kun at this age, no matter what role he plays, seems to be deliberately full of energy, which makes his acting style look a little unnatural. in place.

Ning Hao knew that Li Mu might not be very satisfied with Chen Kun when he heard that Li Mu didn't write any more, so he said with a smile, "If you think Chen Kun is not suitable, you can also consider Lu Yi. He should debut earlier than Chen Kun. " "Never Rest In Peace" was already popular."

Li Mu thought about Lu Yi's image, shook his head and said, "Lu Yi is not suitable, he is too young, and he doesn't have the temperament to act as an anti-war pilot."

Ning Hao then mentioned several popular young actors, but Li Mu refused them all without exception, which made Ning Hao helpless, and held back for a long time: "I think it's better to let Huang Bo act! His acting skills are very, very good, what does this guy act like!"

"No." Li Mu immediately vetoed: "Huang Bo's acting skills are fine, but I'm sorry for his image, you let him play this role, with Anne Hathaway, don't you think that style of painting will be very strange? ? Like Er Niu, a bachelor in the village, suddenly one day married a woman like Wang Zuxian..."

"Where's Xia Yu? He's an actor!"

"No, the play path is too narrow! And to be honest, the appearance is not much better than Huang Bo!"

"Oh!" Ning Hao sighed anxiously, and said, "Why don't you see if there are any suitable Hong Kong and Taiwan actors? How about Chen Guanxi? In "Infernal Affairs", he is still very brilliant, young, handsome, and has good acting skills. It's OK too."

"Day!" Li Mu cursed subconsciously: "You want to kill me!"

Ning Hao asked in surprise: "What's the matter, boss? I'm giving you an idea, why did I trick you..."

Only then did Li Mu come to his senses. Ning Hao must have been unaware of the tragedy caused by repairing the computer a few years later. What's more, Li Mu really didn't want to use Hong Kong and Taiwan actors in this movie. He felt that this was an unprecedented cooperation between the mainland film industry and Hollywood, and he should guarantee the purity of this cooperation. This movie, He is not going to invite actors from Hong Kong, Taiwan and foreign Chinese descent.

Therefore, Li Mu said to Ning Hao: "For this movie, I want a team from all over the mainland, whether it's in front of the stage or behind the scenes."

Ning Hao sighed and said, "Okay then, I'll search for you again."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu was also a little melancholy. Spielberg has already started preparing to start shooting in the United States. As soon as the shooting in the United States is over, he will come to China immediately, but he has never thought about how the Chinese male lead in the script should Who to use, this matter is really difficult.

Wei Lan on the side listened to Li Mu's phone call the whole time, and seeing the melancholy on his face, she asked cautiously, "Honey, have you ever seen a movie called "The Man That Dog That Mountain"?"
