Chapter 41: Is this a fight with Director Gu?
Jiang Wenli, Fu Dalong, Qin Hailu, Jiang Wu, Ni Ping, Liu Hua, Zhang Hanyu and others.
Among them, Jiang Wenli plays the heroine, Fu Dalong plays the male number one, Qin Hailu plays the female number two, and Jiang Wu plays the male number two...
As for Li Xiaolu, Chen Chong and others, all Be eliminated.
Although Chen Chong came back from the United States and is the Best Actress in Golden Horses and Flowers, he is even more suitable for the heroine than Jiang Wenli.
But, this person...
Wang Shu did not use her in the end.
When Qin Hailu auditioned for the role, he originally auditioned for the female lead. After a discussion with Wang Shu, Han Sanping and Wang Changtian, Jiang Wenli was finally chosen as the female lead.
Obviously, in the eyes of Han Sanping and Wang Changtian, Jiang Wenli is more suitable.
Wang Shu had no objection to this, so he agreed without further argument.
After losing the competition for the lead female role, Qin Hailu offered to audition for the second female lead.
And her performance also made Han Sanping and Wang Changtian shine.
One of these two people represents China Film and the other represents Raytheon. One accounts for 60% of the total investment share of the film, and the other accounts for 25% of the total investment share of the film.
After some discussions, it was finally decided to eliminate Liu Yifei and other actresses who were auditioning for the second female role, and the role was given to Qin Hailu.
However, Wang Shu and Liu Yifei exchanged mobile phone numbers and smiled and said they would cooperate again if they had the opportunity in the future.
As for Zhang Hanyu.
Since everyone has come to audition, it is impossible for Wang Shu to eliminate him.
After all, without Zhang Hanyu's help, "Buried Alive" would not have gone to Berlin so smoothly, and there would be no film auditions now.
Therefore, Wang Shu thought for a while and gave Zhang Hanyu a supporting role, and Zhang Hanyu readily agreed.
In this audition, Wang Shu did not act alone, but respected the opinions of Han Sanping and Wang Changtian.
The actors chosen were basically decided after discussions between the three of them, rather than Wang Shu having the final say alone.
This made Han Sanping and Wang Changtian feel very involved, and the smiles on their faces continued from beginning to end.
Of course, Wang Changtian's smile might be a little forced, but Han Sanping smiled happily.
July 10th.
China Film, Enlight Pictures, and Yishu Company announced the starring list of the movie, as well as the date to start filming.
Jiang Wenli, Fu Dalong, Qin Hailu, Jiang Wu, Ni Ping, Zhang Hanyu and Liu Hua are among them.
Han Sanping faced the media with high spirits and said bluntly: "Director Wang's script is extremely excellent, and I am personally very optimistic about this movie."
After speaking, he smiled softly and said , "Otherwise, China Film Group will not invest heavily."
Wang Changtian faced the camera and said with the same smile: "I have read Director Wang's script myself. The plot is really full of twists and turns and is very exciting. . ”
“To be honest, those evocative and ruthless scenes are still echoing in my mind.”
"The writing is really good."
"As expected of a director who can write, direct and win awards in Berlin at such a young age."
A reporter asked, "Mr. Wang, you are so "Praise, can you reveal some specific content in the script?"
"Uh" This question was very sharp, and Wang Changtian was immediately stuck. He thought about it and said with regret: " Sorry, I can’t reveal the content of the script to the public yet.”
It’s not that he doesn’t want to talk about it, but that he only glanced at the script briefly and didn’t really read it seriously at all.
The current statement bragging about the script is just to hype up the popularity.
Because this movie will not only win awards, but will also be released in China.
Moreover, the release time has also been initially set.
The Berlin International Film Festival is usually held on February 10th every year. Han Sanping and Wang Changtian plan to release the film in China on February 18 after its first screening in Berlin.
The operation method is the same as that of Gu Changwei's "Peacock". It premiered in Berlin to win awards and was released in China a few days later.
Leverage on the popularity of Berlin’s awards competition to give the movie another wave of hype.
Even if you can’t go to Berlin and the movie is scheduled to be released in China in advance, the current hype can increase the attention of the movie before it is released.
When Wang Shu faced the media cameras, he calmly praised the creative actors, and then thanked China Film and Television for their strong support.
"Director Wang, I heard that many actresses went to the audition a few days ago. Why did you choose Ms. Jiang Wenli in the end?" A reporter asked a pointed question.
Wang Shu responded with a smile: "Ms. Jiang Wenli is a very good actress. After many discussions and struggling for a long time, we finally made a choice."
None of these reporters are authentic, all of them are When asked a question with big implications, Wang Shu did not dare to answer randomly and could only speak vaguely.
"Director Wang, I heard that Ms. Chen Chong also participated in the audition."
Some reporters continued to ask questions, each one more pointed than the last, and Wang Shu was overwhelmed with answers.
Not long after, Chen Hao saw the news and sent a message to Wang Shu. The content was full of ridicule.
"Oh, so it turns out that Director Wang didn't choose Chen Chong? Let me guess, is he having a fight with Director Gu?"
"What's the fight with Director Gu?" Wang Shu read the message, A confused look on his face.
“Haha, I went to Berlin with Director Gu in February. Director Gu won the Jury Prize and you won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award. Don’t you remember that?” Chen Hao sent the message with a smile.
“What does this have to do with Gu Daobang?” Wang Shu replied.
"Why doesn't it matter? Director Gu didn't use Jiang Wenli when he was taking pictures of peacocks, so Director Wang used her now."
"Isn't this even close yet?"
"I still remember that when Burial Alive was released, it claimed that the box office exceeded Peacock. It seemed that there was a lot of gunpowder between the two sides."
"Many people said , Although Director Wang did not win as many awards as Director Gu, he surpassed Director Gu in the box office. "
Chen Hao sent a series of messages.
After reading the message sent by Chen Hao, Wang Shu immediately denied it and replied: "It's all nonsense, it's completely false."
"Haha." Chen Hao only replied with two words.
When Wang Shu saw these two words, he couldn't help but reply: "It's really not what you think. Director Gu is my senior and I respect him very much."
"Haha." Chen Hao replied.
"The choice of Teacher Jiang Wenli is the intention of Director Han and Mr. Wang, and has nothing to do with me." Wang Shu replied.
"Haha." Chen Hao still gave the same reply.
"Whether you believe it or not, Director Gu is my senior. I respect him very much and I have absolutely no intention of trying to quarrel with him."
"Director Gu did not use teacher Jiang Wenli when he photographed the peacock, it should be Jiang Wenli The teacher’s image doesn’t fit the character, so it’s useless.”
“We chose Teacher Jiang Wenli because the teacher’s image fits the character.”
Wang Shu can’t let his innocence be compromised. Tainted and sent a bunch of explanations.
“Tsk, tsk.”
"Director Wang, let me ask you."
"Jiang Wenli knew that "Buried Alive" was being promoted with "Peacock" as the background when it was released, so why did she go to your crew to audition?"< br>
“And why did you choose Jiang Wenli?”
Chen Hao asked from his soul.
