Super star

Now that he decided to go back and have a look on July [-]th, Feng Shaolin didn't take Ding Xi far away, saying that he wanted to go on a trip to relax, so he took the two children directly to a friend of his, who opened a resort , all kinds of conditions are good, and the environment is also beautiful. Compared with the noisy Wudang Mountain Town in the peak tourist season, the environment here is of course much cleaner.

As soon as Ding Xi arrived at the place, he immediately started to do his summer homework. There was very little summer homework in this grade, and he finished it within two days. As a result, he received a call from You Zhenke on the third day after arriving at the resort.

When parting, he left Feng Shaolin's phone number for the other friends, Feng Li and Ding Yichi had better forget it, they are not together usually, so keeping it is for nothing.

"What did you say?"

"I said, I hope you will come too." You Zhenke on the other end of the phone said with a little pleading, "I heard that the teacher is very demanding. If you are all friends you know, it will be more fun. I have already told your parents, they haven't agreed yet, but as long as you want, they will be happy to let you act, right?"

Ding Xi thought for a while, and it was really like this. Ding Yichi and Feng Li didn't speak about this matter, probably because they were worried that they would open their mouths at home, and Feng Shaolin would turn on the roaring mode again?

"What kind of script is it, can you tell me?"

You Zhenke was a little stunned, and said loudly: "Ding Xi, you haven't even read "The Magical Journey of Beibei"?!"

Ding Xi: "..." I really haven't seen it.

He Wanglan, who was sitting quietly reading a book, raised her head, "This is a children's fantasy novel, which has been made into an animation. It is very popular in China, and has fans abroad."

You Zhenke's voice was so loud that even He Wanglan could hear it.

"Does anyone abroad like this?" Ding Xi covered the microphone and asked He Wanglan.

"Well, because the animation is very good, the ink and wash style, the painting style is also very beautiful, and the novel itself is of a very high standard. Basically, not only children, but also many adults like it very much. It is not a particularly childish story." He Wanglan Standing up, I took out a book in the backpack I brought, "This is it, this is it.

The first one, I guess this is the one I'm going to shoot now, right? "

Ding Xi then talked to You Zhenke again, promising to think about it before hanging up the phone. You Zhenke asked repeatedly and said that she would call at night, complaining that making this movie is the dream of many children And so on, let Ding Xi quickly agree.

In the end, before Ding Xi could think about it, he received seven or eight calls in one afternoon. Except for You Zhenke, the other six friends all called him one by one——

This indescribable feeling of oppression...

He Wanglan smiled and said, "It's no wonder that this is the case. This novel has a high status in China, and there are many people who like it. They probably have read it. When they received the invitation to make this movie, they would agree without even talking about the salary. "

This is the attraction of famous works.

Ding Xi sat down and flipped through the book carefully. In fact, at his age, a normal first-grade pupil might not be able to fully understand this novel. It is also possible to swallow the jujube and see the general idea.

"Is this... written according to the "Shan Hai Jing"?"

He Wanglan nodded, "I just borrowed some settings from several books such as "Shan Hai Jing" and "Feng Shen Yan Yi", but the world created by the author is his own, which is equivalent to constructing another world outside the real world. , although I have never met this author, but I deeply suspect that this is definitely not an ordinary human being."

Ding Xi was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"This looks like children's fantasy literature, but all kinds of allusions and stories are perfectly integrated, and all kinds of folklore are easy to come by. In the world of ordinary humans, an overhead fantasy space has been built. In fact... it is not all made up. "He Wanglan said, "At least a few places belong to the market of monsters. Although the writing is not exactly the same, it can still be seen."

Ding Xi: "..."

"Because of this profound textual background and complete world structure, "Beibei's Fantastic Journey" is not only popular in China, but also quite well-known abroad. It is about a child named Beibei who suddenly possesses magical power one day Bei, found that there was another fantasy space beside him, and there were also extraordinary people among his classmates. In fact, each chapter was about the growth of children. Red, the settings of various people, demons, and immortals are very cute. To put it bluntly, it is actually a story about teaming up to fight little monsters."

Ding Xi: "..." This explanation is too clear!

After taking He Wanglan's novel, Ding Xi read it after reading it. As He Wanglan said, it doesn't matter if the author's writing skills are good. What's even more powerful is that the other world he constructed has almost complete rules and regulations. Systems, they are not the same as the real world, but they are not completely divorced from reality.

If this magical structure is not good, it will easily collapse. It is powerful because it is powerful. Even if this world really exists, it can be explained, and it is not completely fabricated in fantasy.

Seeing that he was watching seriously, He Wanglan said: "It is actually very difficult to make this movie well, because the production of various images is not so simple. Fortunately, it is based on the real world, and it is not completely fictional, so The scene can still be made, and if a movie is to be made into a book, it will definitely be cut out, but it is still worth looking forward to, because this movie has a very broad foundation in China, and the audience is not just children."

Ding Xi nodded. He could see that this novel...is really interesting. The overall style is relaxed, but not exaggerated at all. He thinks the reason for its success is that it is obviously a "fictional" thing , but it looks real.

"You Zhenke said that if this film is accepted, all the young actors will go to Beijing to take acting lessons for a few months, and the filming will start at the beginning of next year." Ding Xi said, "It seems to be very cautious. "

He Wanglan held her chin and said, "Well, because

In the first film, I was a child. To act well, it is not just a matter of investing tens of millions of dollars for the set. If the acting is too bad, it will look weird. "

He remembered that this series of novels in his previous life had made a series of movies, and some of the adult characters and some supporting roles were hired senior acting school. , tens of millions of initial investment, but

After all, I was a little nervous about the first part, so I invited these children who have already become popular through "Star Summer Camp". Not to mention the promotion, the most important thing is...these children are all very good-looking, and they have a certain amount of acting experience , they are familiar with each other, and the operation will be much easier.

"There are ten main characters?" Ding Xi raised his head and asked He Wanglan, who had already searched briefly through the resort's computer.

He Wanglan told him one by one, "It is estimated that the character who invited you is one of the three most important characters." The structure of the Iron Triangle is a routine in many film and television dramas. "Actually, the most important characters are five in total. First, Beibei has the most roles in the play, followed by his friend Shiu, and then Mingming, and the rest Liu Xiaoai is about the same as Rong Yi." Among them, Shiu is a girl, and she is actually the destined heroine. However, this series of novels is mainly about friendship after all, and how old is the child?

In the second part, He Wanglan knew that the love part would not be involved until the sixth or seventh part.

"I think it's probably the role of Rong Yi who invited me to play."

He Wanglan laughed, Ding Xi was really smart.

Among the ten main roles, it is also important or not. If all eight children participate in the role, not all of them can be the protagonists. For example, Yuan Yuejun will probably play the calmest and smartest Lu Yuan among the ten. It runs through the entire series, but in terms of roles, it’s really not too much, but in terms of character design, it’s really suitable for Yuan Yuejun, and then there’s Jiang Jiajia, a mixed-race character in the novel who is most suitable for this mixed-race character Yang Xiaoru, the same for Yuan Yuejun, It's not too important a role. Among the remaining children, Ai Danyi and Zhu Si are too old, so they are not suitable. They can only play Tian Tian and Zhang Ji. The remaining children who are suitable for the five most important roles are There are only four left.

"It is estimated that Beibei is going to invite someone else to play." Ding Xi immediately reacted.

He Wanglan looked at him with admiration. That's right, the role of Beibei was played by a child star appointed by the investor. Facts have proved that the role of Beibei was really outstanding.

"When I was young, it was You Zhenke, but the whole thing feels very similar. It seems to be Ruan Zhuoming, Rong Yi is me, and Liu Xiaoai is Zhuang Ling." Ding Xi quickly matched the numbers one by one.

"So, have you decided to take it?" He Wanglan asked intentionally.

Ding Xi had no choice but to point to Feng Shaolin's cell phone, "Look, it's ringing again."

The friendship formed in the reality show made him feel somewhat emotional with those children. They called one by one in turn, with an aggressive attitude of "If you reject us, we will stop being friends". What should he do?

Children are indeed troublesome creatures, even if they are not bear children, they are still very difficult to deal with.

Their relationship is simple and direct. Since they regard Ding Xi as a true friend, they must not forget him when there are "good things"...

"However, after accepting it, it seems that I will live in Beijing..." Ding Xi sighed.

However, He Wanglan said: "Now Wudang Mountain Town is a small place. Once it is broadcast on TV, you are definitely a celebrity. There are probably many people who don't know about the previous movie. This time, "Star Summer Camp", there are absolutely few people who don't know about it. You won't be able to enjoy much purity here." He advised him.

Ding Xi thought about the phone call the little fat man had made to him two days ago, and couldn't help but smile wryly, He Wanglan was right.

"You can invite Grandpa Feng to live in Beijing with you for a while." He Wanglan said understandingly.

"Alright, let's see if grandpa is willing."

He decided to accept this drama, because this Rong Yi... It's really interesting to watch.
