Chapter 1120 Newcomer
Back then, "The Golden Bough" directly brought Chen Hao to the forefront, and also rejuvenated the careers of the other three actors;
"Ruyu's Legend" continues to star Chen Hao, firmly standing on the front line!
Now, "Story of Yanxi Palace" is about to start filming, and casting is open...
Most of the actresses in the industry are interested.
It may not be appropriate to say that I am interested, but this is Shen Xudong's first palace drama again after ten years...
All the well-established agencies took action, and the female stars, big and small, were also in a state of turmoil.
What?
Age inappropriate?
Who cares?
Zhang Ziyi can play a 15-year-old girl with a face with sunken eye sockets, sagging eye corners, and loss of collagen to protruding cheekbones. She opens her eyes wide to act innocent and pure, and acts coquettishly at every turn;
Zhou Xun looks cute with an old face with swollen face, sagging skin and protruding double eyelids...
By the way, many people think that the actors act young because the crew is too lazy to find young actors, and if unknown young actors are used, the audience will abandon the show...
In fact, it is not entirely true, because they have to accept the fact that they are old. They feel that as long as they are on the stage and in front of the camera, they will always be 18 years old. The power of belief is indestructible. That's probably it. …
After all, Liu Xiaoqing's success as a 14-year-old girl Wu Zetian at the age of 42 was at the forefront.
It’s not surprising that a succession of 35+ and 45+ female celebrities enjoy pouting and sticking out their tongues on the screen, pretending to be cute girls, and vying to become followers of the “Girl Cult”.
The problem is that the lenses in Liu Xiaoqing's time were not as high-definition as they are now.
As long as you don’t slap her in the face, it’s not a big problem!
Now you can only rely on dermabrasion filters to create a youthful look.
But under the high-definition lens, the former screen beauties also had to face this kind of cruelty: loose skin, wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, and fatigue in the eyes.
Ahem... pull it back.
Shen Xudong only proposed the idea of "The Story of Yanxi Palace" and then proposed several characters. He was not the specific screenwriter - he didn't have time to write a cool drama!
Well, "Story of Yanxi Palace" is a great drama - a palace-fighting drama in which the heroine has clear goals, hates evil, and relies on her own brains to kill the villain.
Of course, there are many bugs in the details.
Electronic mustard, no need to think about it.
The kind of White Lotus heroine who says "Oh, I don't want to enter the palace, but you have to choose me to enter the palace" → "Ah, I don't want to compete for favor, the emperor wants to like her" → "Ah, I don't want to harm anyone, you are all forcing me to do so" , relying on the brainless emperor's "I trust the heroine no matter what she does" preference for blessings + various "other people have failed to harm me, I use the same means to harm everyone, and it's accurate" palace fighting drama, no matter how exquisite the details are .
There won’t be too many people interested!
As for why we need to audition for the heroine...
The main thing is that Wei Yingluo is not a great beauty, nor is she a sweet girl. She must have uniqueness and acting skills: she is paranoid, cold-hearted, scheming but jealous of evil, and she looks like Xiaojiabiyu when she is a maid. This is exactly the case. , she cannot be as dignified, generous, gentle and virtuous as the queen, but too kind and weak...
As for who to choose, he... doesn't care. Newcomers are the best, fresh and cheap.
Then, an unexpected person called him and made an appointment with him to have a detailed discussion at a private restaurant...
Shen Xudong was stunned for a moment, and then went to keep the appointment...
Because she is Fan Bingbing!
…
Fan Bingbing brought someone to see Shen Xudong...
She knew that Shen Xudong would most likely refuse!
The reason is simple: the price is not right!
Even if she wanted to lower the price, her team wouldn't allow it.
Fan Bingbing's idea is very simple. Since she can't star in the role herself, let her actors try!
Fan Xiaopang Studio has signed many actors, including Wang Xueqi - I heard that "Iron Man 3" was made by Wang Xueqi and Fan Xiaopang...
However, recently, she has paid more attention to an actress named Peng Xiaoran... and even asked Li Chen to take her to BJ TV's Spring Festival Gala!
But Fan Bingbing's film and television resources are weak - she broke up with Huayi a long time ago, and has been cooperating with Tangde Film and Television for TV series. Tangde Film and Television can only be regarded as a second-rate film and television production company. When the company went public, Zhao Yanzi + Fan Xiaopang, The market value has not exceeded 5 billion!
Relying on "Wu Mei Niang" to become awesome, it formed a path dependence. The most direct thing was to spend money to make "Win the World"...
But Fan Xiaopang is not short of money, and he knows many people.
Since she signed Peng Xiaoran, she must train her...
"Story of Yanxi Palace" is a good opportunity.
Even if you can't get the leading role, it would still be great to get an important supporting role!
Fan Xiaopang is introducing Shen Xudong to Peng Xiaoran...
"...Shen Xudong can enjoy both China and the United States. I received news that it was he who supported and started filming "Jurassic World"..."
"I heard that Disney has always wanted to cooperate with him and let him come forward to form Asian superheroes... but he doesn't like superhero-themed movies... so he has always refused..."
"He is very confident, even arrogant...once he decides something, he rarely changes it...no one can persuade him!"
Peng Xiaoran wrote it down and then asked: "Sister Bingbing, how is your relationship with him?"
"...It's okay. It was good before, but in recent years he has had trouble with Huayi's gang, and I have cooperated with Huayi again...but we have always been in contact."
"…Then does he have any special hobbies?"
"No..." Fan Xiaopang shook his head: "Privately, he is quite serious. He rarely joins any teams. Generally, anyone who wants to find him has to go to his racecourse... But if he goes there, he may not be able to see him. I heard Ma Yun asked him out several times but never got one!"
"...Ma Yun?"
"Well, he said he doesn't like Ma Yun..."
"ah?"
"No one can care about what he said in private..." After a pause, Fan Xiaopang continued: "But as long as he likes you, he will really spare no effort to help you. Like Chen Hao, he actually filmed 7 " "Ghost blows out the lamp"..."
"Any more?"
Fan Xiaopang smiled: "...What do you want to ask?"
"Does he have a favorite type?"
"He likes all pretty girls..." Fan Xiaopang replied casually, and then thought of something: "Except Qinru!"
"He likes big breasts?"
"Yeah," Fan Xiaopang nodded: "Long breasts and thighs...good figure...beautiful..."
"Well, I understand..."
"But you have to take the initiative," Fan Xiaopang thought of something and complained: "He is very passive..."
While talking, Shen Xudong opened the door and came in. He was dressed very casually, with a light-colored coat and jeans. When he entered the room, he took off his coat and said hello: "Sister Bingbing..."
"Hey, here you go, let me introduce you!" Peng Xiaoran stood up, and Fan Xiaopang continued: "Xiaoran, my sister..."
"...Then I also want to call you sister?"
"She was born in 1990, you can call her sister!"
"...I am Shen Xudong!"
Shen Xudong stretched out his hand and the two shook hands. It was obvious that Peng Xiaoran was a little nervous, but... he didn't forget to scratch his palm...
I'm so dedicated, I'm so trembling, I haven't forgotten to flirt...
