Ever since Jiang Ge half-jokingly said last time that he could write a TV series script for "Liao Zhai", Zhou Mulong has been itching in his heart. First, Jiang Ge's scripts are of high quality, and second, he likes this supernatural theme with Chinese characteristics.

Therefore, when I saw the script of "A Chinese Ghost Story" today, my desire to shoot was uncontrollable and completely exploded.

As for Jiang Ge, I know that Zhou Mulong hasn't made a movie or TV series for several years, and only occasionally appeared in variety shows.

But the foundation is there, and the script that was exchanged is relatively detailed, so novice directors will have no problem filming, let alone experienced directors.

"Dad, Django, what are you talking about so happily?"

At this time, Zhou Lingwei came back from shopping with her mother Jiang Ling and Jiang Ge's mother Wu Xiuyun. When she came to the living room and saw the two talking and laughing on the sofa, she asked curiously.

"I just shamelessly recommended myself and asked Xiao Jiang for a script to film." Zhou Mulong replied cheerfully.

"Let me guess which script it is..." Zhou Lingwei sat down next to Jiang Ge, pondered for a moment, and said: "It must be "A Chinese Ghost Story", right?"

Zhou Mulong was surprised: "How did you guess that?"

It is said that "a daughter is better than her father", does this mean in his case "a daughter is better than her father"?

Zhou Lingwei smiled and said: "You used to always talk about not having a good domestic supernatural film or horror film. My sister and I got calluses on our ears, but you can make you want to The only script I have to go to film is "A Chinese Ghost Story", unless Django writes a new one."

Zhou Mulong laughed. This daughter was obviously talking about him, but she didn't forget to praise her boyfriend.

Jiang Ge stood up and praised him, giving a thumbs up and saying: "Awesome!"

Zhou Lingwei smiled sweetly, started gossiping again, and asked: "So, have you chosen the actors? Who will play Ning Caichen, who will play Nie Xiaoqian, and who will play Yan Chixia?"

Zhou Mulong looked at Jiang Ge. He didn't want to get involved in the selection of actors.

Jiang Ge was silent for a moment, and then said: "Nie Xiaoqian has tentatively decided to play Shiyue. As for Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia, there are no good candidates yet."

When it comes to "A Chinese Ghost Story", Nie Xiaoqian played by Wang Zuxian, Ning Caichen played by Leslie Cheung and Yan Chixia played by Wu Ma have really penetrated deeply into the hearts of many viewers.

Although the film was remade into many versions over the years, the roles played by the three of them can never be surpassed.

In fact, Nie Xiaoqian's prototype is not Wang Zuxian, but a Japanese actress Akina Nakamori. The painting of Nie Xiaoqian that appears in the movie was painted in her likeness, but she refused the invitation.

Moreover, Wang Zuxian was not the second choice for the female lead, because the male lead was Leslie Cheung, who was already very famous, so Tsui Hark did not consider her who was not very famous at the time.

But she really wanted to play the role of Nie Xiaoqian, so she personally called Tsui Hark's wife Shi Nansheng to ask for an audition, but she was politely rejected. However, she did not give up and went to find Tsui Hark to audition again. As a result, her beautiful appearance in the audition was just right, and she got the role. opportunity.

Since then, although Yang Mi, Da S, Liu Yifei and others have also played Nie Xiaoqian, in the hearts of many viewers, the real Nie Xiaoqian can only be Wang Zuxian.

Although Qin Shiyue is not like Wang Zuxian, she is somewhat similar to Nakamori Akina.

Furthermore, when she wears white Hanfu, she is like a cold smoke covering the moonlight, unstained by the snow and frost of the world, especially the "beautiful", "cold" and "haunted" female ghosts in Pu Songling's works.

Therefore, there is no problem for her to play Nie Xiaoqian.

"Yue Yue is indeed quite suitable." After listening to Jiang Ge's words, Zhou Lingwei nodded, rolled her eyes, and said: "How about Chen Yi playing Ning Caichen and Brother Gong playing Yan Chixia?"

Jiang Ge shook his head and said: "The temperament doesn't match up. Ning Caichen is dressed in long clothes and carries a bamboo basket on his back. His face is full of childishness, but there is an indispensable heroic spirit between his eyebrows."

Leslie Cheung's delicate face is one of the few that combines beauty and spirituality. His childishness, elegance, and style make the character Ning Caichen fresh and refined.

Xu Chenyi is not in this style, and is more quirky, a bit like Tony Leung's version of Ning Caichen in the third film.

Jiang Ge paused and continued: "Yan Chixia is set to be about fifty years old, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a beard, a righteous mind, and no desire for fame or wealth."

Jacky Cheung's Yan Chixia in the third film is very coquettish, Louis Koo's Yan Chixia is very handsome in the new version, and Yuan Hua's Yan Chixia in the drama version is very strong, but the most classic one is Wu Ma's Yan Chixia.

Gong Li's words were almost meaningless.

After hearing this, Zhou Lingwei stuck out her tongue, turned to look at her father, and said, "Dad, you are now the director of this movie. Please recommend it."

This girl...

Zhou Mulong smiled and didn't interfere, but he could make suggestions, and said: "According to the role setting, I thought about it in my mind, and there are two actors who should meet the requirements, Zhang Liming's younger brother Zhang Fucheng and the national first-class drama actor Feng Hongyuan."

Hearing this, Jiang Ge raised his eyebrows unconsciously.

Zhang Liming...

Zhang Fucheng...

Is there another Zhang Dehua?

Zhou Lingwei immediately searched the Internet on her mobile phone, handed it to Jiang Ge, and said, "The appearance is similar to what you described. Take a look."

Jiang Ge scanned a few photos and felt a bit like Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia. He said, "I'll ask Sister Mo Lan to send them an audition invitation to play one or two scenes to see how they act."

The casting of "A Chinese Ghost Story" came to an end, and then the casting of "Young Justice Bao" was discussed.

Jiang Ge exchanged the script of Shao Qing 1. The main actors are Bao Zheng played by Zhou Jie, Gongsun Ce played by Ren Quan, Zhan Zhao played by Shi Xiaolong, Ling Chuchu played by Li Bingbing, and Pang Feiyan played by Liu Yijun.

The key is Bao Zheng. There are three versions of Zhou Jie, Lu Yi, and Deng Chao, each with its own characteristics. To sum it up simply, one is the young Justice Bao, one is the middle-aged Justice Bao, and one is the smiling Justice Bao.

First of all, we must understand that although the actor's acting skills are one of his own "hard power", how to play a role does not rely solely on acting skills. It also requires the actor to understand the role and understand the setting of the role itself in the play.

An outstanding actor is not only able to handle different roles, but more importantly, he will have a thorough understanding of the role's position in the play and interpret the character from this perspective.

Zhou Jie's version of Bao Zheng is considered a classic by many people. He is almost integrated with the role, and there is no trace of "acting" at all. He truly plays the feeling of a teenager.

Lu Yi's version of Bao Zheng is quite standard, giving people more of the feeling of Jin Chaoqun's version of Bao Zheng, losing the spirit of "youth".

Deng Chao's version of Bao Zheng is a little exaggerated, which makes people easily out of the play.

Jiang Ge combined the three versions of Bao Zheng and set a requirement, three words "down-to-earth".

That is, it is necessary to play Bao Zheng with a teenager's mentality, and then cooperate with the daily plot of the plot when it is not solving the case. The feeling brought to the audience should be like a big brother in life, playing with everyone at ordinary times, complaining about this and that, and looking a little frivolous, but if there is something wrong in someone's family, he can help solve it, and looks very reliable.

And this person is tentatively determined to be Shen Yang.

That's right.

It was Shen Yang who played nonsense.

Jiang Ge was thinking that he would use "Young Justice Bao" and "Justice, My Foot" to create an actor who could make noise and calm down.

That is, one person, one character, performing two different styles.

As for the other roles, after discussing with Zhou Lingwei and Zhou Mulong, Gongsun Ce was decided to be Lin Yu, Ling Chuchu was decided to be Guan Yansi, Pang Feiyan was decided to be Liu Ya, and the last one left was Zhan Zhao. No suitable child actor has been found for the time being, so I guess I have to try my luck at Tagou Martial Arts School or Shaolin Temple.
