Chapter 166 The audition is over, and all role candidates are determined
"I know Chi Zhengda."
"Whether inside or outside the circle, there are even many fans who like to call him Uncle. 99
"The leader of the older generation of film and television.
Chen Ming said.
"Han Ziang's role, just give it to him. 39
"The script of "The Wandering Earth" is completely set from the culture of our Dragon Kingdom."
"Uncle also has high prestige in real life.
"Han Zian is in the script, and it happens to be the character of his grandfather. If he is filmed, it will be more immersive. 95
Zhang Yao smiled and nodded.
"No problem, I agree with that."
"But Brother Chen, this is the first time you have used such a big star in your movie."5
"He is not comparable to those so-called super-first-tier and first-tier actors now.
"Chi Zhengda is a star in the eyes of three generations."
"Who, go to Studio No. 1 and invite Chi Zhengda over.
"Let's just say Director Chen asked him to play the role of Han Ziang. 35
The staff standing not far away hurriedly walked out after hearing President Zhang's order.
About six or seven minutes passed.
The staff member brought back three people directly.
One is Chi Zhengda.
The other two, a man and a woman, were the brothers and sisters that Zhang Yao had introduced earlier.
Chi Zhengda has seen many big people in the end.
Came to the backstage workshop and did not show any nervousness.
Greeting Zhang Yao and Chen Ming with a smile.
"Hello Director Chen, it's an honor to work with you."
"President Zhang, we haven't seen you for a long time. 35
Zhang Yao just accompanied Chen Ming to do the re-examination here, this time is not his home court.
Just nodded and smiled as a response.
Chen Ming got up and pointed to the chair opposite, and said with a smile, "Mr. Chi, please take a seat."
"I am also honored to have you here. 55
"You two comrades also sit down, don't be cautious.
"I just need to ask a few simple questions, and you can answer truthfully.
Chi Zhengda also saw the tension between the siblings.
He smiled and took them to a chair together.
He has read the script about the actor's needs, and his character is a kind elder.
If these two young people can pass the re-examination test.
In the script, one is his grandson and the other is his granddaughter.
With this relationship in place, in the future, maybe we will have to play together often, and if we can help, we will naturally need to help a little more.
Chen Ming was also very satisfied when he saw the brother and sister.
The roles of Liu Qi and Han Duoduo in the script are actually not very demanding.
exactly.
In sci-fi films, what you really see are the spectacular special effects of the big scenes, followed by the plot, and the actors at the end.
The protagonist's acting skills are generally not ranked first.
Seeing the brother and sister sitting there, they looked very nervous.
Chen Ming smiled.
"You don't have to be nervous, just as usual, calm down first.
"Then you each introduce yourself.
After listening to Chen Ming's words.
Chi Zhengda stood up first.
"Let me come first, these two young people still look a little nervous."
"My name is Chi Zhengda, I was born in 1939764.
"In 1973, I participated in the Hong Kong TV artist training class, and it was also from that time that I entered the entertainment industry."5
"I've played a lot of roles over the years.
"This time I happened to be in Longdu, and I learned that Director Chen, you are going to shoot the sci-fi masterpiece "The Wandering Earth".
"I saw a character in the script that matched my age."
"So I came to Dongshan Film and Television City to participate in the audition, hoping that Director Chen would give me a chance. 55
Chen Ming smiled and stood up and said, "Mr. Chi, you're welcome, I've decided to let you play the role of Han Ziang.""
"The role script, we will arrange for someone to bring it over later."
"You are a veteran in the industry. Shooting sci-fi films and making props may delay some of the process. 35
"During this time, you still need to guide other actors a lot.
We worked together to make this movie well.
Chi Zhengda hurriedly nodded, saying that he would try his best to cooperate.
The brother and sister sitting next to him saw that the uncle was chosen to play the role.
A look of envy could not be concealed in his eyes.
In the past two days, there has been a lot of uproar on the Internet.
I don't know how many people are eager to get such an opportunity.
And now.
Such an opportunity is in front of them.
As long as you grasp it well, it is very likely that it will belong to you.
After thinking about this.
No need to wait for urging.
The boy just stood up.
"Hello Director Chen, my name is Wang Yaolong.
"I am twenty-two years old this year, and I am a third-year student of Beijing Film University.
"He is 1.73 meters tall and weighs 55 kilograms.
"My sister Wang Xiaoning and I formed a small drama team."
"Thanks to Mr. Zhang's attention, he is now working as an intern in the North Film and Television Group.
"I hope Director Chen can give me a chance to play the role of Liu Qi in the script.
"I will definitely work hard and fully cooperate with the filming crew."
After Wang Yaolong finished speaking, he hurriedly gave his sister a wink.
Zhang is willing to recommend them.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Anyone who encounters such an opportunity is reluctant to miss it.
Not to mention the young actors like them.
Sister Wang Xiaoning also responded quickly.
After waiting for his brother to introduce him, he hurriedly stood up.
"Hello Director Chen, my name is Wang Xiaoning. 95
"Twenty-three years old this year, a third-year student of Beiying University."
"He is 1.64 meters tall and weighs 46 kilograms.
"I came here today to audition for the role of Han Duoduo in The Wandering Earth."
"I hope Director Chen can give me a chance.
Chen Ming nodded.
"You two sit down first.
"I don't give you the opportunity, but you have to grasp it yourself."
"I ask a few simple questions, and you can answer my questions from your own starting point."5
"These questions may have nothing to do with the script, or may be closely related, you can answer them after you think about it.
Wang Yaolong and Wang Xiaoning looked at each other.
They haven't seen the full script of The Wandering Earth.
It was just last night that the foreman of the theater troupe under the North Film Television suddenly found the two of them.
Said to recommend a role to them.
I only gave a few brief introductions and the character script of the lines, let's take a look and prepare well.
The entire script is less than 300 words in total.
They were really worried, Chen Ming asked too advanced questions.
And lead to such a good opportunity slipped from the hands.
If you can star in Chen Ming's works.
It is no exaggeration to say that it can change fate.
At this time, no one is not nervous.
Chen Ming looked at the dumbfounded expressions of the two and smiled helplessly.
The two characters Liu Qi and Han Duoduo in "The Wandering Earth" really don't need too clever acting skills.
Just show the thoughts and actions they have at their age.
This is more real.
But the problem is, the reality in life is not the same as the reality in the camera.
If they can't keep their composure.
There is no way to act and think well, and Chen Ming will not give them two roles.
"You don't have to be nervous, just answer properly."
"The first question, why do you want to play the role of Han Duoduo?"
"What does this character represent throughout the film.
"Just explain it with your own understanding.
This question was obviously asked of Wang Xiaoning.
Wang Yaolong stood beside him, even if he was in a hurry, there was nothing he could do.
She can only think for herself.
Wang Xiaoning just paused for a moment, and then said firmly: "I hope, although I haven't read too much of the script.
"But I can feel it from some simple lines that Han Duoduo should represent hope in the whole drama."
"Represents persistence and represents the future. 35
After listening to this, Chen Ming did not shake his head in denial, nor nodded in confirmation, but continued to ask, "Why do you think so?"
"Han Duoduo's character runs through the whole play, and basically there is no particularly outstanding scene."
"Why do you say that this character is hope, persistence, and the future?"
Wang Xiaoning pursed his lips and began to answer: "I have watched some Western science fiction films, and I have also watched the science fiction films that Long Kingdom made by ourselves."5
"As long as it is a sci-fi genre, most of the stories will have disasters."
"Although I haven't read the complete script, I can still guess it with the name of the script and some simple dialogues. 99
"When we face a disaster, it is understandable to choose a collective escape. It belongs to the instinct of the creatures."
'Under limited conditions, it is most important for human beings to protect the next generation and keep the incense alive. "
"I read in the script that the earth has to wander for 2,500 years to find a new home, and only our dragon country has a history of 5,000 years of civilization."
"I dare to spread such a big imagination."
“In the process of wandering away from home, all kinds of troubles are bound to occur, and even genocide will occur. 39
"Characters like Han Duoduo represent hope at the last moment, so that humans can produce the power of redemption faster.
"Because it's the only motivation to live, and the only meaning.
"Let despairing human beings understand that their existence is not a purely labor-creating subject."9
"It represents the continuation of life, a strong hope."
"Let everyone be willing to give up a broad avenue of survival. With these hopes, all human beings in a disaster environment can unite as one.
"Complete the ultimate goal and find a new home."
“Without these hopes, humankind tends to collapse easily when faced with catastrophe.99
"And the continuation of this hope is also a manifestation of our Dragon Kingdom spirit.
"Other countries, especially those in the West, will never understand.99
After Wang Xiaoning finished speaking.
Even her brother's eyes widened in surprise.
It is clear.
He didn't expect his sister to be able to say such a rhetoric.
After Chen Ming heard it, he smiled lightly.
"good.
"As expected of the person recommended by President Zhang."
"The last question, if you answer it."
"You two brothers and sisters, you can follow Mr. Chi to review the script. 35
"The last question is also very simple, and that is why I am asking you that question just now. 35
Wang Xiaoning smiled, "(aead) this question is easy to answer.
"I am a drama student myself, and I am particularly interested in dialogue dramas.""
"If you explain it from the perspective of drama, that is, if you want to play a role well, you must first understand the role."5
"Theatrical performance work, art creation work."
"It gives the performers unlimited space for imagination and performance.
But all of this needs to be realized under the specification of the script.
"Therefore, for actors, to play a good role, the first thing to do is to thoroughly understand the script. 35
"Understand the historical background behind the script, the time of occurrence, and the ideology and living conditions of people in the specific social environment at that time.
"Performance doesn't have to be expressed in words.
The body can also be reflected, and both the voiced and the silent can interpret the acting skills. ""
"Maybe sometimes a look can play a role well.
"If I don't know the script, and I'm not interested in the sci-fi genre, I want to come and play the role."
"That's disrespectful to the script."
Wang Xiaoning finished his words.
Chen Ming nodded.
Zhang Yao next to him saw this.
Immediately arranged for the staff to take the three of them to the crew.
He laughed when he saw people leave.
"How about Brother Chen, are the brothers and sisters I introduced to you okay?"
"The two of them showed great drama talent in school.
"I have been working very hard all the time. Although it is called an internship now, the theatre troupe under our North Film Television has already emerged."5
"I believe it won't be long before these two are definitely new stars in the entertainment industry.
"There's nothing wrong with the origins of these two people."
"They are also working very hard, so I thought about giving them this opportunity."
"Those who work hard always have to receive some rewards to be fair.
Chen Ming nodded.
"Indeed, from the time the three of them came in, I could see that this Wang Xiaoning was very thoughtful.
"Although her analysis has a common starting point, she makes her point of view very clear word by word.
"Only by thoroughly understanding the script can you guarantee acting skills.
Such a simple truth, many young actors now do not understand.
"It's not that I deliberately embarrassed them, Chi Zhengda, who is sitting next to him, has a good reputation in the industry.
"Everyone knows that when the uncle is filming, he is the most serious about the script and the most responsible for the characters he shoots.
"If the two people who play against him can't understand even the most basic script.
"Then I can't arrange them to play next to the uncle."
"Fortunately they did not disappoint. 35
"This pair of siblings is really rare.
"After following Chi Zhengda for a period of time, their future acting careers will definitely improve a lot.
"President Zhang is still very unique this time. 35
"He helped me a lot again."
"Haha, Brother Chen, please don't say that.
"If you want to help, it's because you helped me.
"My Dongshan Film and Television City has always been called a bad film manufacturing base.
I myself have a hard time to speak, and I can't express the pain.
"Brother Chen, being able to choose the filming location here is a big blessing for our five companies.
"If "The Wandering Earth" was filmed here and became popular, it would be worthy of our investment in the construction of such a large film and television base. 99
I saw that Director Chen agreed to the role he chose.
Zhang Yao could clearly see that he was a lot happier.
He had read the script himself.
And have been in the business for so many years.
Whether the brothers and sisters of the Wang family are up to this role is something he has in mind.
Certainly will not rely on their own relationship to force these two people.
I really want to support young people who have dreams and drive.
It can make Longguo's film and television industry go more smoothly in the future.
Less of that candy super sweet stuff.
As long as there are a large number of young people with acting skills and hard work in the film and television industry.
Those traffic stars who have no acting skills and like to play big names will soon be eliminated by the times.
The best springboard for support.
It is tantamount to participating in the role of Chen Ming's works.
At least for now.
Nothing is faster and more direct than this one.
The next audition continues.
It's just that Liu Peiqiang, Han Zi'ang, Liu Qi, and Han Duoduo, the main actors, are determined.
The audition in the back will not be so strict.
Characters like the rescue team captain Wang Lei and Zhou Qian were quickly determined.
The entire audition lasted less than ten hours and it was all over.
At this time, there are still many people outside who are looking forward to whether they will suddenly be discovered by the cast of the crew.
Then invite in to a character.
This kind of thinking generally occurs in civilians.
It has never appeared in a well-known actor.
But this time in Dongshan Film and Television City, many actors have such a fluke mentality.
The end result is sure to be disappointing.
Even a TV series with many actors can't need so many people.
The people watching the crew have started to call it a day.
And Dongshan Film and Television City is the same as everyone originally guessed.
It is planned to be closed to the outside world, and no one is allowed to come and visit during the filming.
Inside the backstage studio.
Zhang Yao stood up and stretched.
"Today's harvest is not small, I have notified Dongshan Film and Television City to temporarily close.
"Next, we will do our best to train these selected actors.
"Well, Brother Chen, do you want to take a break?"
"It's been a busy day."
"I'm going to arrange to send a few foreign group performances, and then I can start work."
Chen Ming smiled and shook his head.
"No, I originally thought that the audition would not end today."
"Let those actors who were picked out go back.""
"It looks like they'll have to be called now, and I'm going to tell the script myself.35
"The actors we selected this time have never made science fiction films before, and they may not be able to figure out many science fiction elements in the script very quickly.
"Also, I have to tell them about my vision and background of the future world in the script.
"Go through it in your mind in advance, and it will be much easier to play against each other when the time comes."
"It's not like a blind man touches a donkey and makes a mess. 35
Zhang Yao nodded in agreement, "Yeah, now that the selection of actors is over, the problem is exposed. 55
"I haven't made a sci-fi film before, and even the selected actors used to shoot real scenes."
"During this time, they should also exercise their sense of role. The stronger the sense of role, the better they can enter the state."
"Substituting yourself into something that is impossible in reality is a test of acting skills.
"Some shots have to be shot first and then filled in with special effects backgrounds. Pointing at a green cloth is a test of imagination.
"If you don't know enough about the background of the story, you can't make these shots at all.
"Hey, having said that, I quite admire that little girl named Wang Xiaoning. It's not easy to see through her age."
Chen Ming nodded, "These things are the foundation for previous actors."
"But for today's actors, it's extremely rare."
"That's why I would directly agree to both of them.""
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, we two will act separately.
"You go to select some foreign group performances, as long as the image and height match, there are no other requirements.
Zhang Yao smiled, turned and left the backstage studio.
Busy with my own business.
And Chen Ming began to gather all the staff of the crew, as well as all the actors selected this time.
Prepare the story background for the script.
Come for a comprehensive explanation.
