Chapter 252 Starting
The characters in "Thieves" also have a wide age range.
Like Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui, Lin Nan is positioned as the captain of two thieves gangs.
Representing their experience, qualifications and abilities in this industry,
The media that are guarding Lin Nan Pictures today are considered worthy.
The actresses present all have their own characteristics...
“And some are wearing tights?”
A reporter whispered, his eyes widened, and the camera in his hand was Didn't stop.
In the conference room, Lin Nan and Guo Fan sat together, next to Jiang Yuerou, who will participate in the production of "Thieves".
The first actress to audition was Li Bingbing.
To be honest, she has quite a lot of experience in action movies.
But this role requires more than just these.
In the plot, when facing different situations and different people, you must be able to switch your state and temperament at any time.
Charming, cool, coquettish, seductive, carefree...
In this aspect, Li Bingbing is a little stiff.
"Director Lin?"
"Well, I will let someone notify you when the results are out later."
"Then, thank you, Director Lin."
Li Bingbing He thanked politely and left the conference room.
She had a vague hunch in her heart that she might not have been able to let go just now.
Next is Zeng Li.
Although they are old acquaintances, Lin Nan still has to say that Zeng Li is still a little inferior in this role.
It may also be due to the skeletal appearance, which is more cool than charming.
Too familiar, Lin Nan gave the answer directly.
“Sister Zeng Li, you are not very suitable.”
When he said this, he didn't see the other party being depressed.
"It's enough if I have this accurate word, and it will save me the trouble of thinking too much when I go back. Director Lin, I'll leave first, let's get together in the sky."
Zeng Li said with a smile, Very calm.
"Well, walk slowly."
After Zeng Li went out, Guo Fan was a little surprised, "Isn't this person too cool and calm?"
"Haha, that's her character."
Lin Nan replied, Zeng Li definitely didn't mean anything else when she said "Juju".
When Fan Bingbing came in, it was really eye-catching.
"Director Lin..."
Obviously he looks so good, but he has to prove that he has acting skills!
"Let's get started."
......
Li Xiaoran is not bad either.
Hao Lei, Chen Hao, Liu Tao...
After more than a dozen actresses in a row, Lin Nan saw an old acquaintance again.
"Long time no see, Director Lin."
The smile is bright, it's still the same Yan Danchen.
“It’s been a long time, do you want to try another role?”
Lin Nan has collaborated with Yan Danchen in two movies, including "Lotus Lantern".
He thought he understood each other. Yan Danchen and Zeng Li were just the opposite.
When Guo Fan and others heard Lin Nan's words, they realized that Director Lin should be talking about the role of another supporting actress.
"Huh? It's all fine, just listen to Director Lin."
Yan Danchen said nonchalantly, she never cares about the size of the role, she can take it in movies and TV.
......
Lin Nan, Guo Fan and Jiang Jierou are all very satisfied with Zhang Hanyu, which means that the latter got the role.
"Let's get started, old classmate."
Luo Jin smiled and said nothing. Follow the audition requirements and start performing.
The role in the script is actually not very demanding, and given Luo Jin’s conditions, he is completely qualified.
Lin Nan gave Luo Jin a positive answer on the spot.
“Thank you, Director Lin.”
Lin Nan didn't say anything. They were classmates before, and that was just in the past. He can call the other person an old classmate, but the latter obviously knows the rules of the industry.
Lin Nan saw this and estimated that Luo Jin must have hit a lot of walls in the past two years.
Wu Gan is already a director.
Lin Nan didn’t expect to come to the audition this time.
"Director Lin, I've admired you for a long time. I'm here to audition, and I can steal from you, haha..."
Lin Nan and others looked at him sideways, this is still a familiar person!
The loss of "Langya" is not big news in the industry.
After all, nine out of ten directors made a loss on their first film, not to mention that they came from different industries to become directors.
Wu Gan has been acting for so many years from TV series to movies, and is a mature actor.
The audition for "The Thief" was really not a problem for him. Moreover, the male characters in this drama are inherently easier to choose than the female characters.
——
After two days of auditions, Lin Nan finalized the final list of roles.
Liu Dehua, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Hanyu, Wu Gen, Luo Jin, Hui Yinghong, Fan Bingbing, Yan Danchen.
The last one is left, the main cast is complete!
For other less important roles, you can go to the film studio to find them.
"Director Jiang, Zhang Yi's role should be almost done, right?"
"Don't rush me, it's just these two days. If it were you, if it were anyone else, I would definitely scold you..."
Through the phone, you can hear the laughter on the other side.
"Okay, it's over, let him come back immediately." Lin Nan said with a smile.
……
"Rogue" announced the final character list and production information to the outside world.
“Director Lin’s new movie has a luxurious lineup and an investment cost of 130 million!”
This time, Lin Nan tried to learn from Hollywood and divide the film projects into modular segments.
When the "Thieves" project was established, the logistics team was already preparing. Survey and select shooting locations, put costumes and props in place in advance, break down shooting tasks, and plan the shooting process in detail...
You don't have to be a 70-80% learner, at least you have to be presentable. The shooting efficiency will be improved by 20-30% by then.
In this way, we can slowly catch up in the future.
And judging from this pace, "Thieves" will most likely be launched before "Xiu Chun Dao".
After all, costume drama requires more effort.
……
On the other side, good news came from Jinma.
Huang Bo won the Best Actor for "Bullfighting", and Zhou Xun won the Best Actress trophy for the second time.
Lin Nan thinks it's good, after all, both of them are his friends.
However, when Zhou Xun gave his acceptance speech, he thanked Lin Nan again, which gave the latter a bit of a headache.
He has to do it twice, he really can’t explain it clearly...
Han Sanping suggested that if the cast is relatively large this time, they should hold a launch conference.
Lin Nan thought about it and realized that he could really get one.
What a commercial film needs is momentum. Its promotion has already started since the filming started.
After the box office of "Source Code" exceeded 40 million, the daily growth has become slow, and it only took half a month to reach full revenue.
I estimate that with half a month left, I should be able to climb the 50 million threshold.
In the film industry, we can already smell the smoke of the Lunar New Year season.
"Wind and Cloud 2", "October Siege", "Assassin's Tomb" and "Three Guns".
These are the four most watched movies.
Especially "Three Guns", which is Lao Mouzi's first show after the Olympics, and Zhang Weiping vowed to break the box office record.
Invitations to the premiere of the new picture were sent out twenty days in advance, and there was quite a sense of impatience.
Han Sanping is very efficient, and the launch conference of "Thieves" will be held in the China Film Auditorium.
Media reporters, colleagues in the industry, actors and artists gathered together.
All the cast members of "The Thief", "Xiu Chun Knife" and "The Lost Journey" are here.
Including "Thirty-day Love" which is currently being filmed, many people were shocked and gasped.
There are four movies running at the same time!
When Lin Nan and Liu Yifei arrived, the crowd was already very large.
The two separated, the former went to the stage, and the latter sat in the first row.
“I plan to complete the filming of "The Thief" within two months, preferably one and a half months.
In fact, as we speak, part of the crew has already Work is starting now.”
As soon as he said this, some people at the scene had already thought of Lin Nan’s graduation thesis.
Are you starting to follow the Hollywood model?
Reception time.
"Director Lin, here’s to you..."
Fan Bingbing was very happy to get Lin Nan’s movie role this time.
She held a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
Clean and tidy, he is a veteran.
After toasting, Shi Shiran left, knowing how to behave appropriately.
Lin Nan saw Liu Yifei being interviewed by reporters and probably asked her about her experience as a producer.
The girl had a smile on her face and seemed to be having a good conversation.
……
"Director Lin, I wish you that the box office of this movie will hit a new high when the time comes."
Unexpectedly, Lu Zheng showed up, along with Jing Tian.
"Brother Lin." The latter shouted softly.
"Huh? Is your movie finished?"
Lin Nan was a little curious. He remembered that "My Beautiful Boss" was only launched last month.
"Not yet, the crew is off work today..."
Jing Tian replied with a smile, his eyes twinkling.
"I also wish you that this movie will be a big hit when the time comes." Lin Nan said it sincerely.
“Thank you, Brother Lin.”
……
After a few words of conversation, Liu Yifei's interview was about to end, and Lin Nan also ended the topic.
"Tiantian, go back to the set. You only took half a day off."
Jing Tian glanced into the distance and nodded.
"Well, Uncle Lu, let's go."
…………
"What do reporters ask you?"
"Ask me if I am nervous when I am a producer for the first time?"
Liu Yifei hugged Lin Nan's arm and smiled.
"Then what do you say?"
"I said I'm not nervous, I have Lin Nan to take care of it. Hee hee..."
This answer is really Liu Yifei's style, saying what she wants.
......
Jiang Wen said it was two days, it was just two days, Zhang Yi really came back in a hurry.
Now that the cast of "Thieves" is complete, and with the professional actors found from the film studio, the crew can officially start filming.
This movie is set across the mainland and Hong Kong Island, but it was not actually shot in Hong Kong Island.
Lin Nan chose to shoot the landmark exteriors in real life, but the main plot between the actors was still in the mainland, just around the capital.
At that time, it will be produced through post-editing, with a few special effects, and spliced together.
This will test the people of Tiangong Color.
......
On a beautiful morning, the crew of "Thieves".
""The Thief", scene 1, act 1.
action!"
......
