Chapter 125 Cute Child
Since the background of the story was moved to Hong Kong, ET's Chinese title was directly simplified to "Alien", and little ET's name was also changed to Yi Zai.
However, the English title still uses "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial".
After Yang Ye placed an advertisement for actors in Ming Pao, he immediately caused a sensation in Hong Kong.
Because everyone feels that the people on earth can no longer stop Yang Ye, so he is going to fight the aliens.
During this period, Lucas' "Star Wars" is setting off a box office craze around the world. Many people think that Yang Ye can no longer sit still and wants to get a share of the sci-fi film industry.
It’s not like science fiction films have never been made in Hong Kong. Two years ago, Shaw Brothers filmed a special-shooting film "Chinese Superman" with a giant horse's eyes. It was released for eight days and was hurriedly drawn. The box office was HK$550,000.
During the Spring Festival this year, the Hollywood blockbuster "King Kong" grossed 5 million at the box office in Hong Kong. Shaw Brothers couldn't sit still anymore and produced a copycat of "King of the Orangutans" and hired a foreign girl with blond hair and big boobs to do it. The heroine plays Tarzan, which is said to be a masterpiece with a cast investment of 6 million.
It was released in the summer, but it was crushed to death by Bai Yang and Jiahe, and the box office barely exceeded 1 million.
Compared to those shabby knockoffs produced by Shaw Brothers, it is very exciting to see what type of movies Yang Ye will produce.
After all, the three movies he has released so far are all amazing.
However, his actor recruitment advertisements are very confusing. They are all...children.
Protagonist 1: Boy, 15-17 years old, demanding, handsome.
Protagonist 2: Boy, 9-11 years old, demanding, handsome.
Protagonist 3: Girl, 4-6 years old, demanding, cute.
The recruitment notice stated that there were three protagonists, and the conditions were very simple, but the citizens of the whole city were very excited. If they could become the protagonists of Yang Ye's movies...
Even those in Taiwan were Some people heard about this and sent their children's information to apply for the job.
In less than half a month, Baiyang Pictures received tens of thousands of materials.
Everyone has the mentality of taking advantage of everything. What if we are selected?
The requirements clearly stated that a handsome boy must be present, but in the end many ugly men also sent photos of themselves.
Yang Ye even saw eight taels of gold. Damn it, can he pretend to be a middle school student just because he is short?
Although there is a lot of information, it is not difficult for Yang Ye, because Yang Ye is accustomed to taking shortcuts when selecting actors, that is, directly choosing those who will be famous in future generations.
The reason is very simple, it is convenient and less error-prone.
Yang Ye is not interested in choosing an actor who will not exist in future generations, and then slowly cultivating him. This is because he is full.
After the preliminary screening, the remaining thousands of documents were in Yang Ye’s hands.
Yang Ye passed all the information from Taiwan, Singapore and other places, and only looked at the information from Hong Kong. It took him half a day to filter out a list.
Then I scanned the list of people who had been roughly selected and eliminated by the company to see if there was anything missing.
Then, the interview began...
"Hello teachers, my name is Liu Furong, I am sixteen years old, six feet eight inches tall, studying in Keli Middle School, in Form Four. "
Yang Ye looked at him and asked, "Do you have any acting experience?"
Liu Furong said: "I have participated in the performances of the school drama club, learned drama knowledge under the guidance of teachers, and participated in behind-the-scenes productions including screenwriting."
Yang Ye nodded and smiled. Asked Chen Sisi next to her: "Sister Mei, what do you think, can I be your son?"
Chen Sisi looked at Liu Furong carefully and said, "He is quite handsome. Mr. Liu, I'll give you a vote." Let’s try to perform a question.”
Liu Furong said nervously, “Please ask Teacher Chen to give a question.”
Chen Sisi said, “It’s raining outside today, so just give it a try.” If it rains, I’ll give you two minutes to prepare.”
Liu Furong thought for a while, covered his head with his hands, and ran in from outside.
Then he shook his hair coolly, then picked up his clothes and started wiping his head, then started twisting his clothes, finally took off his shoes, and poured water...
Yang Ye Looking at the way Liu Furong tossed his hair, he couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Sure enough, for him, the matter of being handsome is deep in his bones.
But having said that, he does look handsome!
"Three teachers, I have finished my performance."
Liu Furong stood up and said respectfully.
Chen Sisi nodded and smiled: "It's okay. Sister Meng, Aye, what do you think?"
Xia Mengdao: "He is very smart and can design many actions in a short time. It’s not bad. It’s just a bit...unrealistic.”
Liu Furong couldn’t help but feel nervous and confused after hearing Xia Meng’s comments.
Seeing this, Yang Ye said, "You go out now, soak in the rain for two minutes, and then come back in."
Liu Furong agreed and ran out quickly. After a while, he ran back again, with a look of shame on his face. Said: "I understand!"
Yang Ye smiled and said: "You understand, right? Life is a drama, you have to observe more."
It turned out that Liu Furong ran outside and got wet for two minutes Yu discovered that his clothes were not wet at all. It was nonsense to pour water on his shoes when he was just performing.
Yang Ye put a √ mark on Liu Furong's information and said, "Classmate Liu, please go back and wait for the news. If there is any result, we will call your home."
"Thank you three teachers!" Liu Furong felt that he had been eliminated and left with a frustrated look.
Xia Meng asked: "Do you want him to play the role of brother?"
Yang Ye was noncommittal: "Let's wait and see!"
After interviewing for a while, the three of them After having lunch and resting for a while, we continued in the afternoon.
“Hello teachers!”
A small boy said timidly.
Yang Ye and the two beautiful sisters made eye contact with each other, and one of them was introverted.
Xia Meng asked: "What is your name?"
"My name is Liming. I am eleven years old. I read Xiao Wu."
Yang Ye asked: "You don't like talking?"
Liming nodded, and Yang Ye asked again: "It's impossible to let go of acting. Why did you come to participate in the audition?" "My father wanted me to have more contact with people outside, so he signed me up."
“You speak Cantonese with a bit of an accent. Aren’t you from Hong Kong?”
“I was born in BJ.”
“That’s it , so the kids here will bully you, right?”
"Yeah!" Dawn nodded.
“So, your personality has become very introverted?”
“Yes!”
“Do you have any talents that you can perform?”
"Can I...sing a song?"
"Okay, you sing!"
Li Ming opened her mouth and sang "Under the Lion Rock", and she sang it so well.
"Yes, you go back and wait for the notification. If you are hired, we will contact your father."
Li Ming nodded, turned and left.
My parents are divorced, I am lonely, introverted, and my age is suitable. I have not started to grow yet, so I am small.
Yang Ye put a checkmark on Liming's name and said to Chen Sisi: "This boy is quite smart and knows how to sing my songs to please me. Sister Mei, this is your youngest son."
Chen Sisi smiled Said: "Did you like it?"
Yang Ye nodded: "It's him!"
In the script of "Alien", the protagonist has never been named, and now he is also named by Yang Ye Filled it in easily.
My elder brother is Zhang Zhihua and my younger brother is Zhang Zhiming.
Xiao Ming is the most common name in China, just like Hans in Germany and Sam in the United States.
The most representative names along the coast are Zhiming and Chunjiao.
Furthermore, this name also matches Ming Ming’s real name, which can be said to be quite appropriate.
As for my brother’s name, Liu Furong will change it in the future.
After identifying Liu Furong and Liming, Yang Ye suddenly had an evil thought in his heart.
Otherwise... I have gathered the four heavenly kings.
In the movie, in addition to the protagonist's family of four, there are also several more important characters, namely several of the brother's classmates, who finally participated in the rescue of the little alien.
Yang Ye flipped through the list, and there really was one.
“It seems that I am famous enough now. I want to choose a role in a movie, and all the qualified children in Hong Kong have signed up.”
The leading role has been decided, and the interview still has to go through the motions. Yang Ye quickly selected Zhang Xueyou and Aaron Kwok.
Aaron Kwok is relatively young, just one year older than Liming, and was originally not suitable to be his brother's classmate.
But... he has grown, so he looks taller than Li Ming now, which is okay.
After spending three days deciding on the roles of the brothers, the next step was to interview for the role of the younger sister.
After sending away a mother and daughter, Yang Ye yawned and said to Hu Yinmeng: "Yinyin, arrange the next one."
Xia Meng asked: "Last night Didn’t sleep again?”
""Canghai" is almost finished. I stayed up all night and finished it in one breath."
Xia Meng said with concern: "Don't rush to write the new book, take a rest first."
< br>The two were chatting when a young and beautiful female student walked in and introduced herself: "Hello teachers, my name is Guan Jiahui."
Yang Ye woke up from his nap and said with a confused look on his face : "Classmate Guan, we are recruiting little girls around five years old. How old are you?"
Hu Yinmeng ran in behind Guan Jiahui. When he saw that they were talking, he remained silent and stood aside. .
Guan Jiahui said: "I'm here to ask you, why don't you reply to me?"
"Uh... what letter?"
"Reply..." Guan Jiahui blushed, she After all, she was only fifteen years old. In front of so many people, she was too embarrassed to talk about her love letter to Yang Ye. She said arrogantly: "Anyway, you are not allowed to hide from me."
As she said that, she sent it to Yang Ye again. A love letter, saying: "Please write me a reply this time!"
Yang Ye said dumbfounded: "Okay, okay, I understand."
"Then I'm leaving. Goodbye, Brother Ye!" Guan Jiahui said, and then said obediently to Xia Meng and Chen Sisi: "Goodbye Aunt Yang, goodbye Aunt Chen!"
Xia Meng and Guan Jiahui waved, Chen Sisi couldn't stop laughing.
"Aye, there must be so many love letters at home that there is no room to stuff them, right?"
Yang Ye looked embarrassed and said to Hu Yinmeng: "Yinyin, what are you doing? Ghost?"
Hu Yinmeng said happily: "She insists on breaking in, what can I do?"
Yang Ye, who had two heads and two heads, covered his face and said, "Forget it, next one!"
After Guan Jiahui made such a fuss, Yang Ye became more energetic.
Unfortunately, he was not satisfied after several interviews. Xia Meng said: "I think the one just now was good, very well-behaved."
Yang Ye shook his head and said: "I don't want to be well-behaved. I want to be cute!”
“What is cute?”
Um... Yang Ye just remembered that the word cute now only means sprout, and the accompanying "cute culture" has not yet appeared. He explained: "It means... it means very cute. It is best to have a chubby little face that makes people want to pinch it when they see it. It would be better if there are dimples or something."
< br>After two more interviews, a mother walked in holding a pink and jade-carved little girl.
A round face, big eyes, and shallow dimples.
So cute!
