Chapter 118 Reflection
Sun Li glanced at Wang Shu in surprise, and suddenly felt that she had a new understanding of the young director in front of her.
It seems that Director Wang is not only good-tempered and easy to talk to, he is also quite funny.
Sun Li felt relieved, and her previous nervousness was relieved a lot.
Although Wang Shu is a 20-year-old young director, he is a director who has produced movies with a box office of over 100 million, won awards in Berlin and Cannes, and also won the Best Actress Award at Cannes. This is not just a director. little director.
Therefore, even if Sun Li has already started acting with Li Lianjie now.
In front of Wang Shu, you have to lower your attitude and deal with it carefully.
Wang Shu looked at Sun Li, who was born in 1982 and is only 24 years old now, in her prime.
However, in March last year, I joined the cast to start filming "Happiness is Like a Flower" and was chased by Deng Chao.
Now, the two are in love.
The power of love is different. Sun Li now looks obviously quite moist.
The two chatted for a while and then got into the topic.
Wang Shu repeated what he had asked Gao Yuanyuan to perform before. Sun Li thought for a while and then began to perform seriously.
Wang Shu watched Sun Li's performance and suddenly thought of Gao Yuanyuan.
Gao Yuanyuan's image may be suitable for playing the second female lead.
I just don’t know if she is willing?
Wang Shu still knew about Gao Yuanyuan’s emotional experience.
Whether it is Teng Huada, Su Yadong, Xia Yu, etc., they are all insurmountable.
After all, whether Gao Yuanyuan acted actively or passively, no matter how hard they explain it to Teng Hua and Xia Yu, they cannot change the fact that the third party is involved.
After a while, Sun Li finished her performance. Wang Shu smiled and applauded: "Good performance."
Sun Li's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she looked at Wang Shu nervously and expectantly, waiting for Wang Shu's next words.
Wang Shu could tell that Sun Li was able to perform so well, most likely because she was passionately in love with Deng Chao.
This audition happened to be a professional counterpart, bringing the emotion of love into it, a bit like acting in person.
Wang Shu thought for a while and said, "You go back first. There are many actors waiting for auditions outside. I'll take a look."
Seeing Sun Li's expression change from expectant to Feeling disappointed, Wang Shu then smiled and said, "To be honest, you already fit the image of a heroine quite well, but the audition has just begun."
"I want to see it again."
When Sun Li heard this, there was a look in her eyes for an instant. She knew in her heart that this was to be determined.
This is Wang Shu’s consistent practice in auditioning and casting.
Before coming to the audition, her agent had told her that Wang Shu’s audition for actors was never decided directly at once. Instead, candidates were first determined and then selected from those to be determined.
Although, this is different from being designated by management or producers within the industry.
But, this is Wang Shu’s style.
She glanced at Wang Shu secretly. In just a short moment, she thought a lot.
In the entertainment industry, if there is a pending link, it means there is room for maneuver.
This operation space
“Have you never heard that Director Wang is such a person?”
"It shouldn't happen, right?"
Suddenly, she felt a little uneasy again.
For many things, don’t be afraid of 10,000, but be afraid of the worst.
What if someone had a similar audition to hers, was waiting with her, and then got the role by throwing themselves at him?
Director Wang is a young and energetic young man. He may not be able to resist the temptation of those slutty hooves!
"Understood." Sun Li responded quickly with a smile on her face.
Although she felt uneasy and couldn't help but make random guesses, she would not show it on the outside.
Wang Shu smiled and then sent Sun Li out of the room.
The actors sitting in the waiting area were relieved when they saw Sun Li coming out empty-handed.
Although they also know that Wang Shu’s audition usually does not directly determine the candidate, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will happen.
"Hello, Director Wang."
Dong Xuan opened the door and walked into the audition room, facing Wang Shu, smiling sweetly.
When Wang Shu saw Dong Xuan coming in, he also had a smile on his face and reminisced about the past: "Tsk, tsk, we haven't seen each other for a while, are you beautiful again?"
Dong Xuan heard this He pouted and said with a hint of resentment: "I've become more beautiful, but Director Wang didn't even look at me."
"Haha." Wang Shu laughed, and then said half-jokingly: "You're not by my side, how do you know I didn't secretly glance at you?"
Although the two have not collaborated since "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox", they still exchange text messages and chat from time to time.
After saying that, he then asked, "Has your role in "The Beginning of Spring" been completed?"
In March 2006, Gu Changwei started filming the movie "The Beginning of Spring", in which Dong Xuan played the role Teacher Xiao Zhang.
This is a character who has no literary talent, no lofty ideals, no bumpy academic experience, and no means to achieve his dreams. He just lives an honest life and longs for a relatively stable marriage. Role.
Dong Xuan was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 18th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards.
The heroine of the movie "The Beginning of Spring" is Jiang Wenli.
In other words, during the filming of "The Beginning of Spring", Jiang Wenli took leave and went to Cannes, and when she came back, she became the Queen of Cannes.
In this regard, Gu Changwei was happy on the surface, but actually felt uncomfortable in his heart.
In the drama "The Beginning of Spring", the heroine has a large-scale role.
Had this drama not been aimed at the Venice Film Festival, Jiang Wenli might not have devoted herself to art.
After all, this is the first large-scale film, and you can't take the first step without a little bit of determination.
The previous source of fierceness came from the Venice Film Festival, one of the three major attractions in Europe.
As for Jiang Wenli’s Cannes team, after winning the Best Actress award at Cannes, they no longer need to devote themselves to art.
This stopped Gu Changwei.
Fortunately, Jiang Wenli didn't say much when she came back after winning the Best Actress Award at Cannes, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Although he breathed a sigh of relief, he was still lamenting in his heart.
Because, before, he could control Jiang Wenli by saying that he would hit the top three players in Europe.
Today, Jiang Wenli is the Best Actress in Cannes.
At this moment, his family status plummeted.
Therefore, he hated Wang Shu so much that his teeth itched with hatred.
If Wang Shu had not invited Jiang Wenli to star in "The Tuner", then Jiang Wenli would not have won the honor of Best Actress at Cannes, and he would not have been affected.
Although "The Beginning of Spring" could also win an award for Jiang Wenli, what Wang Shu won was different from what he personally won.
And the difference between before and after is also different!
“Not yet.” Dong Xuan glanced at Wang Shu and told the truth with a smile on his face.
As for Wang Shu knowing that she was filming the movie "The Beginning of Spring", she only assumed that Wang Shu learned about it from Jiang Wenli.
The two of them went to Cannes not long ago and probably talked about related matters and learned this. However, although Dong Xuan was smiling on his face, he felt quite strange in his heart.
She suddenly realized that if Jiang Wenli had talked to Wang Shu about her filming "The Beginning of Spring", then there was a high probability that the conversation would not only be about movies, but would probably also extend to other aspects. …
For example, her sponsor.
If there were other people in the crew of "The Beginning of Spring", Dong Xuan would not feel so strange in his heart.
But Jiang Wenli is different. She is in a husband-and-wife relationship with Gu Changwei, the director of "The Beginning of Spring". The two of them look up and see each other every day. Jiang Wenli must be able to understand her origins through Gu Changwei, and she also knows about Dong Xuan's subconscious glances. He glanced at Wang Shu and saw that Wang Shu looked normal. He breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time started to feel uneasy again.
Because.
She didn’t want Wang Shu to know this, she wanted to maintain a good image in front of Wang Shu.
So, she was worried that Wang Shu would look at her with colored eyes after knowing this.
If Wang Shu was also a director who often used unspoken rules, she would not have this strange feeling.
However, Wang Shu is not only not such a director, he is also a rare clean figure in the entertainment industry.
This made her feel uncomfortable.
She didn’t want her image to be shattered by Wang Shu.
“Is Zha Xiza so confident?” Wang Shu joked with a smile when he heard this.
"Hehe. Isn't it because we know that the female characters in Director Wang's movie don't have a large proportion, and I'm just a supporting role in Director Gu's movie." Dong Xuan didn't pretend, but said with a smile, "Besides, Yes, this kind of thing is common in the actor circle."
"Besides, I'm not acting while filming, but I will confess to you directly."
"If I get it successfully. When I get the role, I will naturally discuss the schedule with you."
When Wang Shu heard this, he pretended to be helpless and shook his head.
Although he was joking, he actually didn't take it seriously.
Because, as Dong Xuan said, as long as it is discussed in advance, it is not considered a drama.
On the contrary, if you take one film, then take another film without telling the crew, and then find a reason to go back and forth between the two crews by asking for leave without telling both parties, That's the show.
The difference lies in whether the actors informed them in advance.
Although it is just a simple matter of informing in advance, it is not easy for actors involved in dramas to do.
Because they were able to get the role in another drama while getting this role by hiding it.
If you notify the schedule conflict in advance, you may be brushed off and miss the role.
And... actors who want to become popular must not want to miss the opportunity.
Just take over the drama without telling both parties, and then start the drama.
The two chatted for a while and then got down to business. After that, Wang Shu sent Dong Xuan out of the audition room.
Next, Jiang Xin, Shu Chang, Yang Ruoxi, and Xu Huanhuan all came to audition. Wang Shu chatted with them one by one for a while, then took a look at their respective performances before sending them away. .
One day, just like that.
To be honest, although Wang Shu already had a candidate in mind, he was still a little hesitant.
Although Han Sanping did not come to participate in the audition, he mentioned something to him before that.
It was this sentence that put him in a bit of trouble.
Han Sanping's requirements are very simple. Don't look for actors who are not well-known. Try to choose actors with a certain box office appeal.
In the field of movies, this sentence eliminated TV drama actors such as Jiang Xin, Shu Chang, and Yang Ruoxi, and the number of actresses left to choose from plummeted.
"It seems that the heroine can only be given to Sun Li."
Wang Shu pondered for a moment. "Fearless" was released at the beginning of the year, and Sun Li gained a certain amount of recognition for it. heat.
Although the box office of "Fearless" mainly depends on Jet Li, Sun Li also used this to show her prominence in the film field.
Compared with Jiang Xin, Shu Chang and others, they still have an advantage.
In fact, he also agreed with Han Sanping's words.
Because whether a movie does well at the box office these days really depends on whether its actors have box office appeal.
This is an insurmountable fact.
Unless Wang Shu reaches the level of Zhou Xingxing, he can praise newcomers unscrupulously.
Otherwise, even Lao Mouzi would have to seriously consider the cast at this stage.
For example, in "The Golden Armor", Chow Yun-fat, Gong Li, Liu Ye, Jay Chou and so on.
Regardless of the movie, just looking at the cast will attract people into the cinema.
“As for the second female lead.”
“How about Liu Yan?”
“There aren’t many roles anyway, she just needs to be big and sexy. ”
Wang Shu just thought about it for a moment and decided on the first and second female roles.
He had considered using Gao Yuanyuan as the second female lead, but he felt that given Gao Yuanyuan's current celebrity status, there was a high probability that she would not be willing to play this role, so he gave up the idea.
Then, I thought of Liu Yan.
Although Liu Yan did not come to audition, he knew that Liu Yan was an artist from Enlight Media.
Tell Wang Changtian about this and sell him a favor.
Wang Shu decisively took out his cell phone and dialed Wang Changtian's number.
"Hey, what's the wind blowing today? Director Wang actually took the initiative to call me?" As soon as he answered the phone, Wang Changtian couldn't help but joke.
"Haha." Wang Shuqian laughed twice and did not talk nonsense with Wang Changtian on this issue, but asked, "Mr. Wang, does your company have a female host named Liu Yan? "
"Liu Yan?" Wang Changtian recalled that the company seemed to have signed such a person at the end of last year.
"You have something to do with her?" Wang Changtian did not answer, but asked subconsciously and doubtfully.
Wang Shu smiled and said: "Isn't this an audition for a new play? I'm trying it out here, but I always feel uncomfortable without giving Mr. Wang a sense of participation."
"Then it happened I heard that Guangguang signed a host named Liu Yan, so I planned to ask her to try it out.”
“It’s a disguised form of giving Mr. Wang a sense of participation, isn’t it?”
Actually, it’s a female. For the role of Er, Wang Shu had considered Li Xiaoran.
Then I thought that Li Xiaoran was already thirty years old, and asking her to play a girl in her early twenties might be a bit less spiritual, so she ruled it out.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yan seemed to be a good fit.
Wang Changtian was a little touched when he heard Wang Shu's words.
He knew very well that no matter what role Wang Shu played, there would be many actresses competing for it.
Furthermore, while in the company, he actually heard about the grand audition of Wang Shu.
It’s not inevitable that there will be many actresses, but it’s true that there are many actresses running to audition!
Under this premise, Wang Shu actually thought of him and the light.
This.
A pure heart!
Han Sanping, old Bi, etc., if you hadn’t been a hindrance, why would Wang Shu be like this?
Why do you need to think about the light and give the light a role during the audition?
At this moment, Wang Changtian couldn't help but start to reflect.
Wang Shu's sincere treatment really made him feel a little bit on pins and needles
