Chapter 341 Young Actors
The news that Bingbing Li had won the role spread like wildfire. Everyone in the film and television industry was paying attention, and many female stars were so jealous that their eyes turned red.
Newspapers quickly published the news, and ordinary people who cared about the film and television industry also knew about it.
"According to recent news, the casting of the Hollywood blockbuster "The Adventures of Cheng Long: The Mystery of the Spell", produced by the famous director Gilbert Jr., has been decided.
Bingbing Li, who had starred in "Young Man Bao Qingtian", was spotted by Gilbert Jr. and played a very important role.
This is proof that Chinese actors have gone global, congratulations to Bingbing Li..."
"There is no doubt that little Gilbert has contributed a lot to the Chinese Legion's ability to go global. Bingbing Li should really thank little Gilbert, because from now on, she will be free to fly..."
"Damn it..." Looking at the reports in these newspapers, International Chapter tore the newspapers into pieces, his face turned red and he was quite angry.
She was confused, how could she be inferior to Bingbing Li? Why was she the one who got the role and not me?
But no matter how angry it is, it will be useless. There is no way that International Zhang can go and question little Gilbert and ask why you chose Bingbing Li, right?
She doesn't have the guts to question him face to face, but there's no problem in saying a few words behind her back.
Compared to International Chapter, Zhou Xun is very calm.
After the audition, she went to get to know little Gilbert's rumored girlfriends and found that, except for Naomi Watts, all of them were actresses with good figures and long legs.
As for the actresses from the island countries who were rumored to be with him, Zhou Xun didn't take it seriously. These actresses from the island countries have never appeared in Gilbert's movies.
Zhou Xun discovered from this that actors like her are more concentrated in the so-called independent film circle in Hollywood.
In the mainstream Hollywood film industry, Zhou Xun is not even qualified to be a vase.
So Zhou Xun knew very early that although he had entered the final audition, there was actually no hope, so Zhou Xun called Bingbing Li generously.
But Bing Bingfan, another one who participated in the audition, had a different taste.
After the audition that day, she made a point of asking about it, stopped little Gilbert at the door, and had a few words alone.
Little Gilbert didn't say anything related to the movie, he just said: "If you just rely on your beauty and figure, you are already better than most people.
I think the red carpet would like an actress like you, maybe I should go and check it out. "
"Then can I go to Hollywood?" Bingbingfan looked at little Gilbert with a pair of big eyes, with expectation in his eyes. The big watery eyes can see that the man has no will to resist, but he is an ordinary man.
Little Gilbert is in Class 2, Grade 3, so he can still persevere.
He touched his nose and said, "Maybe! Being famous is a very strange and metaphysical issue. You may be able to gain God's favor.
However, I want to remind you one thing. "
"What's the matter?" Bing Bingfan asked quickly.
Little Gilbert said mysteriously: "Remember to pay your taxes on time, there will be many missed payments."
"???" Bing Bingfan had a question mark on his face and looked at little Gilbert who was walking away. He wanted to go up and ask for more information, but in the end he didn't go up to ask.
Bingbing Li was very lucky to get a role with a heavy role. This is the perception of the outside world. However, little Gilbert chose her entirely because Bingbingli was suitable, not because she was chosen by lot.
Some people who were jealous of her even secretly said: "I'm just going to show my face, and there won't be many shots. What's there to be envious of?"
But in fact, these people also understand that if it was just to show their faces, there would be no need for Director Gilbert to go to such trouble.
Before the audition for Xiaoyu began, Bingbing Li came to the hotel again, accompanied by her sister Li Xue and her agent, to discuss the actor contract.
Bingbing Li also wanted to thank little Gilbert in person, but she did not see little Gilbert at the signing ceremony, so she could only express her gratitude in her heart.
The person in charge of signing the contract was very understanding and specially arranged for media reporters to come and take photos. This can be regarded as preliminary publicity.
Little Gilbert attaches great importance to this market, although the entire release cycle in the Chinese market may not be as good as the one-day box office weekend in North America.
But taking a long-term view, it is certain that the Chinese market will flourish in the future.
Therefore, in order to continue to attract Chinese movie fans, preliminary publicity actions should be carried out first, and it does not require much effort.
Bingbing Li is undoubtedly one of the winners. After the signing ceremony, no one can compete for her role. Although the movie hasn't started filming yet, Bingbing Li's fame has skyrocketed.
Now, 28-year-old Bingbing Li has undoubtedly become the mainstay among Mesozoic actresses.
Yes, an important role in a Hollywood movie has this magic power to change the life trajectory of an actress.
Compared to Bing Bing Fan, Bing Bing Li's stardom was not smooth. It was not until last year's "Youngster Bao Qingtian" that he made his breakthrough, and now he is soaring into the sky.
However, Bingbing and Li Bing were not complacent. After signing the actor contract, she got the full version of the script, which was also a Chinese translation.
I heard that the script creator, Director Gilbert Jr., personally supervised the translation. As a result, it should be close to the original English script, which would make it easier for Bingbing Li to understand the character.
Sister Li Xue also wanted to read the script, but was ruthlessly rejected by Bingbing Li.
It's not that Bingbing Li doesn't want to show it to Li Xue, it's mainly because she signed a confidentiality agreement with the crew and the script cannot be disclosed to others, otherwise she will face serious accusations.
In the past, when TV dramas were filmed in China, although there were scriptwriters, the scripts were not that important. Many scenes were shot by the director after discussing with the screenwriter on the spot and thinking about them bit by bit.
There are pros and cons to such passionate creation, but the actors are very nervous because they don't know what role they will play tomorrow.
But the Hollywood script was finalized very early. Bingbing Li still remembers what the director named Nolan said: "Although there may be changes during filming, the general content will not deviate."
He also gave Bingbing Li two important tasks, to practice yoga and figure, and to practice speaking English. Although the actor's accent problem can be solved through dubbing in the theatrical version, Nolan and Gilbert Jr. have the same habit of using the actor's original voice.
Therefore, both Chinese and English lines need to be completed by Bingbing Li herself, which poses a challenge to her accent.
After practicing for several months, Bingbing Li continued to hire an English teacher to practice speaking. At the same time, she also signed up for a yoga class and worked hard to practice yoga.
Many people only saw that Bingbing Li was lucky to get the role, but they did not see what kind of efforts Bingbing Li made for this role.
Therefore, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. If you think that opportunities will fall from the sky, it is too much of a daydream.
Without adequate preparation, little Gilbert would not choose Bingbing Li no matter how suitable she was for the role.
Fortunately, today's Chinese stars can still be called actors, they are hardworking and dedicated. Putting aside things other than the business itself, it is obviously not a level better than the later traffic florets.
And in terms of appearance, today's various female stars are much more beautiful and more energetic than those little flowers carved out of the same mold.
Little Gilbert used to think that if he switched to a live role, he would direct the TV series and movies he directed in his previous life.
Then do those big-name freshmen and flowers on the crew still dare to look down on him? Do you still have to call your teacher respectfully?
Now it seems that it is obviously unnecessary.
Thinking about it, the fresh meat florets are also just looking at the dishes. Don't say you dare not, if little Gilbert wants their butts, these fresh men will stick their butts out and wait for little Gilbert to come.
But obviously, little Gilbert is not that perverted and has no interest in the butts of men who are neither androgynous nor androgynous.
After Xiao She's audition, we came to the most difficult casting decision in the film, Xiao Yu.
Compared to Xiao She, Xiao Yu's role is undoubtedly very, very important. Therefore, this huge opportunity has attracted parents from all walks of life to take advantage of this opportunity and want to win this role.
In order to win the opportunity to audition, parents try their best to give gifts, build relationships, and be considerate.
But no matter what method is used, entering the final audition depends on what Gilbert and Nolan want.
The main thing is to see what little Gilbert wants. No one dares to cast him as a young actor who he denies.
Therefore, many people looking for connections want to find little Gilbert. But little Gilbert is a very mysterious person, and his comings and goings are very mysterious, so you can't usually meet him at all.
On the contrary, the film director Nolan lives in the hotel, which is easy to meet.
So Nolan has been in trouble these days. Either one family invites him over for a birthday, or another family invites him over for a happy event. By the way, I also gave away a lot of antiques, calligraphy, paintings and other things.
Nolan was very excited at first, but after going there a few times, he complained to Gilbert: "These people are too hypocritical. They obviously want roles, but they have to beat around the bush and talk about a lot of things.
I'm almost dizzy from talking about it, it's so annoying. "
Little Gilbert laughed loudly and said: "That's why I hid here in Lao Tian, knowing that this would happen. You, you can enjoy it."
Nolan was very troubled. He said fiercely: "Those who invite guests, none of them can pass the audition."
There were more audition candidates for the role of Xiaoyu than for Xiao She, and there were more than twenty young actors who were shortlisted for the final audition. The young actors, whose ages range from 1986 to 1992, can dazzle people.
Little Gilbert saw a lot of names with attributes on the audition list, such as his 'favorite' Da Mi Mi and Fairy Sister, Shu Chang, and Da Tiantian.
However, little Gilbert felt that these young actors born after 1985 were a bit old. If "The Adventures of Cheng Long" was successful, the actors would probably have to be replaced after one film.
Therefore, Little Gilbert focuses more on actors around ten years old, basically those born in the 1990s.
There are also names familiar to little Gilbert, such as Yang Zi. Unexpectedly, people like Tan Songyun and Li Yitong, who were not born as child stars, also entered the final audition.
Before the audition, little Gilbert asked Tang Jili for his opinion: "Director Tang, who do you think is better among these audition actors?"
Tang Jili thought for a while and said: "From the perspective of effects, I think Yang Xiaomi and Shu Chang are good, and the one named Yang Zi is also great.
Of course, it depends on your choice. "
"What about Yifei Liu?" Little Gilbert asked.
Tang Jili thought about it and said: "The little girl is quite beautiful, but she can't act! And I heard that her mother and her godfather have been working hard for this matter, fighting for this opportunity.
Even though she made it to the final audition, I don't think you could catch her. "
If Da Mi Mi still has some spiritual energy in his early years, he can become a good actor if he works hard. Unless the role of the fairy sister fits her perfectly, her performance will not be very good.
Of course, this may be a problem with the director himself. After all, some actors need to be trained by the director.
But as said before, the entire project does not have time to accompany an actor to grow slowly. It's not Sijia, our relationship is not that close.
So everything ends with the final audition, and whoever is suitable will be chosen, even if it is an unknown actor in his previous life.
In order to cooperate with this audition, Cheng Long flew over from Hong Kong Island to play with the young actors.
Xiaoyu's role is more important than Cheng Long to a certain extent, because it is related to the success or failure of the entire project, so we can't be careless.
