rising director

In fact, the cost of DVDs is very low, and the original version is also very low. The price can be reduced to [-] or [-] yuan. At this time, it is the price of two pirated discs, and the audience is still willing to pay this amount.Especially the movie has a good reputation, and the audience will basically support it if they have a good impression.

"It depends on the situation, produce first, and then decide how to set the price."

"That's right, come and drink."

Back from the dinner, Wan Xiaohu was rubbing his temples all the way in the car. He can drink well, but there is a problem, his temples are swollen and painful after drinking.Because of this incident, Wan Xiaohu decided to quit drinking, but in society, entertainment is inevitable, drinking and smoking are indispensable.

He has quit smoking now, if he quit drinking again, he probably won't have to socialize.

"Drink, drink, do you feel uncomfortable now?" Su Ya was driving, and Wan Xiaohu was uncomfortable sitting in the co-pilot, and she joked with blame.

Li Xia was sitting in the back row, next to Li Yumin and Wang Qianqian. Hearing Su Ya's words, Li Xia retorted: "Boss Su doesn't know something. Smoke opens the way, and wine builds bridges. There is nothing to talk about without smoke and alcohol. In business , don’t smoke or drink, isn’t that divorced from the masses? The old man Mao Taizu said that ‘leaving from the people will be abandoned by the people’, so ah, we can’t stay away from tobacco and alcohol!”

"Come on, you know how to talk, and there are many entrepreneurs who don't drink and socialize. I see, it's you young people who don't know how to learn well when you see others smoking, and you smoke when you see others If you drink, you also drink. That's why this kind of bad atmosphere has been created in the society." Su Ya retorted.

Wan Xiaohu nodded: "Ma Xia, Mr. Su's criticism is right, we have to accept it humbly. For the sake of the whole society, for the whole world, drink less alcohol and eat more vegetables in the future, stand up if you can't reach it, love your own body."

"Haha, where did Mr. Wan learn it? He said it so smoothly. It's so funny." Wang Qianqian and Li Yumin asked with a smile.

"Original, who told me to be so humorous." Wan Xiaohu scratched himself at all points, and brazenly took the popular little paragraph on the wine table as his own.

Later, Li Xia became unhappy, and asked Li Yumin: "Hey, isn't it funny what I said just now that 'smoke breaks the way, wine builds the bridge, no smoke and no wine, no talk'?"

"Smoking and drinking, what's so funny?" Li Yumin scorned, "Besides, I've heard this sentence before, you boys make excuses for yourself, it's not funny at all."

Wan Xiaohu laughed: "Ma Xia, human humor is linked to talent, you are full of wine and too little ink. Listen to me, humor comes when you open your mouth, 'My wife has an account when she goes out, drink less and eat more vegetables , can’t stand up, love your own body.’, this is humor.”

Su Ya hummed and smiled, expressing contempt: "Your head doesn't hurt anymore?"

"Oh, I forgot if you didn't tell me, I have a headache, I have a headache, stop by a pharmacy, I'll sell some sober medicine."

0062【Cast】

The weather is coming into summer and the work is relatively busy. The staff and actors of the crew have to be finalized in early June, which makes Wan Xiaohu spend fifteen hours a day researching the crew list and taking time to perfect the storyboard script.Wan Xiaohu had to work hard to cope with this high-intensity preparation work.

I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, I'll make a mistake.

At present, Li Xia has worked with Wang Jinghua and Wang Zhonglei to complete the audition and casting work.A list was handed over to the director team.Hiding in the hotel, the director team started a seminar.

Ning Hao was the first to speak: "I think Yu Na's candidate is the most difficult to choose. Li Bingbing, Fan Bingbing, and Zhou Xun are all popular actresses. If you choose one of the three, it will be difficult to choose."

"I'm more inclined towards Fan Bingbing, who is younger and more in line with Yu Na's positioning." Cheng Er said.

Wu Ershan shook his head: "Fan Bingbing's acting skills are not so good. I think Zhou Xun has performed very well in the past few years. He can freely retract and release when acting, and he can interpret the heroine very well."

Wan Xiaohu tapped the list with his fingers, seeming to think about it: "The three of them all have advantages, so it's hard to make a decision. Let's see how they perform during the audition."

The scene of "Butterfly Effect" is not big, and the actors are not complicated. There are only five leading actors.Actor Su, heroine Yu Na, Yu Na's brother Yu Hao, friend Li Jie, and Su's mother.Of course, because the plot spans three stages: 6 years old, 13 years old and 19 years old, the actors in different periods are also different.

Xiao Su, the young Su, Xiao Yu Na, the young Yu Na, the young Yu Hao, and the young Li Jie, these actors are all too young, and there is no suitable star to play. Naturally, we can only wait until the interview to make a decision.As for the grown-up Su and other leading actors, Wan Xiaohu's request is to be a star!

Anyway, there are many stars under Huayi Brothers, so why not use it.

"Butterfly Effect" is a sci-fi film. To put it bluntly, sci-fi films are not very popular in the mainland. Even if word of mouth spreads, not many people are willing to pay to watch it. Without any celebrity appeal, wouldn't the box office in the mainland be terrible? .Although Huayi Brothers and Wan Xiaohu care more about the sales performance of the movie on DVD, they can't lose face at the box office.

Therefore, Wan Xiaohu was a little cautious when dealing with the casting list.

There are many well-known actors in this list, just the audition list of the heroine Yu Na, there are well-known actors such as Zhou Xun, Fan Bingbing, Li Bingbing, Yuan Li, etc. The male stars under Wang Jinghua are weaker, but The audition list of the leading actor Su also has two stars Wu Qilong and Chen Kun.

Wu Qilong was sure that he wanted to sign Wang Jinghua, while Chen Kun contacted him through Nortel's teacher. Speaking of which, Chen Kun is Wan Xiaohu's senior.

"Hey, tell me, would it be right to ask Guan Zhilin to shoot the heroine? She is the dream lover of many men." Cheng Er suddenly made a suggestion.

Wu Ershan sneered: "Don't talk about it, how old is Guan Zhilin, do you think it's feasible to play a 19-year-old girl?"

"I've been acting younger these days. What's wrong with Guan Zhilin? I think she's really beautiful. Beauty can ignore age. Besides, with makeup, who knows how old she is."

"Guan Zhilin's face is too mature and coquettish. No matter how you put on makeup, she is not pure enough to be 19 years old. No matter how she looks, she doesn't look like a college student." Ning Hao shook his head. The heroine Yu Na was in the movie. For a while, she was a college student. .

Wan Xiaohu's eyes lit up when he heard Guan Zhilin's name: "Why don't we let Guan Zhilin play the role of Su's mother?"

Cheng Er muttered: "Director, this span is too big, from girlfriend to mother."

Wan Xiaohu took a shot list: "Domestic sci-fi films are different from the mainstream martial arts films and romantic comedies currently on the market. They will be slightly less attractive from the beginning. Although we can hype, this is the first heavyweight domestically produced film. Sci-fi films, upgrade this gimmick. But today’s audiences are too blind to watch movies. Many people go to the movie theater and watch whatever movie they see. Few stars are so attractive.”

"what do you mean?"

"Anyway, Huayi Brothers has the resources, so we will have an all-star lineup, invite big names to come and act in guest plays, and then focus on these stars during the promotion. This attraction is amazing. Just imagine, the first domestic film with an all-star lineup Will sci-fi movies be very eye-catching?" Wan Xiaohu said with a smile.

"It's a good gimmick." Ning Hao nodded.

Wan Xiaohu spread out the list and pointed: "Guan Zhilin, please play Su's mother, this is considered an important actor. Others, such as Yu Na's roommate, Su's roommate B, Su's father, Yu Na's father , doctor, these roles can be found by celebrities. Wang Jinghua is a sister in the brokerage world. It should not be difficult to cooperate with Huayi Brothers and ask her to contribute. Chen Daoming, Yuan Swimsuit, Hu Jun... all You can come here, can't you?"

"Will Wang Zhonglei support it?"

"Why not, since we have already invested, are we still afraid of trouble? I will personally discuss this idea with Wang Zhonglei. Now we still have to complete the audition work, the main role has been selected, and the supporting roles can be arranged in any way." .”

"Right."

After the seminar, everyone in the director's team has a benchmark to measure the role.

The audition work was held at the hotel where the crew stayed, and the castings in the first few days were all for supporting roles and secondary protagonists.It's quite simple to choose, it's all about acting skills and looks, good looks and good acting skills, basically you can get into the eyes of the director team.After all, Wan Xiaohu intends to pursue a sense of imagery in movies to make up for the lack of special effects in sci-fi movies.

After three days in a row, after several rounds of auditions, the main role was finally settled.

The rest is to invite celebrities to play guest roles, and to choose the three roles of Su, Yu Na, and Su's mother.

"Guys, this is the temporary script that Director Wan asked me to hand over to you. He said, please read this temporary script carefully. Later, we will go through this plot to test whether your acting skills are suitable for the heroine of the movie. "Cheng Er went to the hall and distributed the temporary script to Zhou Xun and others who came to audition.

Zhou Xun's assistant raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Did Wan Dao say when it will start? My Zhou Xun is still in a hurry to shoot an advertisement. Maybe it won't be too long."

"This, the director didn't explain it, and I don't know, why don't I ask."

"Well, please give me an answer as soon as possible."

Cheng Er returned to the room, Wan Xiaohu was on the phone, seemed to be talking and laughing, saw Cheng Er approaching, put down the phone, covered the receiver and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Zhou Xun's assistant asked when the auditions would start. She seemed to have a commercial to shoot later, so she didn't have much time."

"Tell her it starts in an hour."

Cheng Er went out, Wan Xiaohu continued to call, and within a minute, Cheng Er came back again: "Director, Zhou Xun's assistant said that she only has half an hour to wait, please arrange an audition early."

"Can't wait an hour? Let her go if you can't wait!" Wan Xiaohu has a bad temper, and he opened his mouth to yell, and then he paused, "Forget it, just half an hour. Let her Get ready, the first audition is scheduled for her."
