Chapter 616: A Collection of Actors From "Dear"

"The Great Wall", what a great IP! It is not only the biggest business card of the Chinese people in the world, but also the most familiar historical building to the Chinese people themselves.

This IP cannot be ruined by Legend.

Keeping this in mind, Wu Yuan plans to talk to Zhang Yimou about the project production of "The Great Wall" after he finishes and releases the movie "Coming Home".

The reason why Zhang Yimou was persuaded by Legend is that his heart that wants to try new things is not willing to be lonely again, and he wants to try the IMAX 3D special effects blockbuster that he has never shot before!

Zhang Yimou is old but his heart is young. He has always had a young heart that keeps up with the development of the film era.

Wu Yuan still supports and encourages this aspect.

Light and Shadow Times is the best company in China to make special effects blockbusters!

The most professional special effects team in China is in Light and Shadow Times.

The best director in China who can shoot 3D special effects blockbusters is also in Light and Shadow Times.

Even Wu Yuan's Hollywood special effects network is not inferior to Legend Pictures.

In this life, Zhang Yimou does not have to cooperate with Legendary Pictures. He can also realize his idea of ​​trying new technologies by cooperating with Light and Shadow Times.

And Wu Yuan will not interfere too much with Zhang Yimou's creation!

But there is no rush to talk to Zhang Yimou about this matter. It is still early. Legendary Pictures only started the "Great Wall" project in 2015. It will be fine if he gets ahead of them.

Wu Yuan is more concerned about another thing now, which is the preparation of his new movie.

Originally, he was anxious to hold a script seminar with the main actors of "Dear" and brainstorm with the leading actors to see if there are any parts of the script that need to be revised and strengthened.

After all, this script was stitched by himself and has not been tested by the market. He is a little bit nervous.

It was just because of the appearance of Zhang Yimou that his work rhythm was suddenly disrupted.

After spending half a month to solve the problem of Zhang Yimou joining the company, Wu Yuan was busy with his new movie again.

In December, when the capital was snowing heavily, Wu Yuan summoned the leading actors of "Dear" to the headquarters of Light and Shadow Times.

He also spent a lot of effort to coordinate the schedules of these actors.

After all, they are all quite popular actors.

Needless to say, Huang Bo's acting career has been booming in the past two years. He finally won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor. He has no shortage of acting offers in the past two years. It was only because Wu Yuan invited him that he firmly rejected all other movies, and even declined a movie that had signed a letter of intent.

If it were someone else, it would probably be impossible to get Huang Bo's schedule.

Although Tan Zhuo is not very popular among the public and has little fame, she has no shortage of film offers. She is the queen of art films, and Tan Zhuo's salary is cheap, cheap and easy to use. Some art film directors want to invite her.

For the other main actors, Wu Yuan also found old actors with good acting skills and high fame.

The second male lead, who is also a single father looking for a child in the story, is played by Zhang Yi.

The second female lead, Li Hongqin, the new mother to whom the male and female protagonists' son was sold after being abducted to the countryside, was played by Hao Lei.

Wu Yuan finally decided to use Hao Lei, but she was demoted from the first female lead to the second female lead.

The most active and determined representative of the people who are the core of the whole family search team and the people who are looking for the missing children, the wealthy businessman Mr. Han, was played by Zhang Songwen.

It was really a coincidence to find him to play this role.

Although "Kuangbi" was a hot hit when Wu Yuan was in his dream, Wu Yuan really never paid much attention to Zhang Songwen as an actor.

It's not that he doesn't like Zhang Songwen, but there is no shortage of good actors in China, especially from 2000 to 2010, so he doesn't need to go out of his way to find Zhang Songwen to play any role.

The reason why he found Zhang Songwen this time was because Zhang Songwen played Ning Hao's "Golden Robbery" and met this director who graduated from the photography department of Beijing Film Academy.

After hearing that Wu Yuan's new movie was looking for actors, Zhang Songwen took the initiative to contact Ning Hao, hoping that Ning Hao could help recommend him.

It was Zhang Songwen's character of daring to seize opportunities and actively recommending himself that gave him the opportunity to audition and finally won the role.

His appearance, personality and temperament are all quite suitable for the role of President Han.

The person who plays President Han's wife is Wang Likun from the company. This role does not have many scenes. Logically speaking, Wang Likun, who played the senior sister in "The Legend of Shushan Fairy Heroes", does not need to play such a small role.

But Wu Yuan took the initiative to mention her name and thought she was suitable for this kind of wife role, and Wang Likun certainly would not refuse.

There are so many artists in the company, who doesn't want to get closer to Wu Yuan and join his crew?

This time she only plays a less important female third or fourth, but through this intersection with Wu Yuan, she may become the female lead in Wu Yuan's movie in the future!

After all, Liu Yifei can't play the heroine of Wu Yuan's movie every time!

Others also have opportunities!

Didn't this opportunity fall to Tan Zhuo?

When several leading actors arrived at a conference room of Light and Shadow Times, actresses such as Hao Lei and Wang Likun looked at Tan Zhuo with envy.

Before this, Tan Zhuo was not very famous. As an actress who mainly played in art films, she did not have much status and influence in this era of commercial supremacy. As a result, the heroine of this "Dear" fell on her head. What a blessing.

Both of them took the initiative to greet Tan Zhuo and flatter her implicitly.

There was no way. They all believed that after the filming and release of the movie "Dear", Tan Zhuo would no longer be just the art queen whose influence was limited to the field of art films. She would go to the public!

Such an actor who was favored by Wu Yuan was still worth making friends with.

However, before the two of them could say a few words to each other, Wu Yuan walked in with a thick stack of scripts.

"Everyone is here."

He looked around at the actors present and smiled with satisfaction.

This cast configuration is still quite good. Except for Wang Likun, they are all acting talents.

As for Wang Likun, her appearance is also very important to the overall effect of the film. Although her role does not appear many times, it can dilute the tragic color of the film and add some color to the film.

"Have you read the scripts distributed to you?" Wu Yuan asked again.

Huang Bo and others nodded quickly. The script was given to them half a month ago. They have been thinking about the script every day during this period and almost memorized it all.

"Then let's talk about your views on the characters and the film."

"Everyone can speak freely. If you think there are any flaws or unreasonable places in the script, you can point them out. Everything can be modified before the filming starts."

"Don't worry. I hope that our collision of minds can make the script of this movie more perfect!" (End of this chapter)
