Hualiu Director

Chapter 306 Qian Ninghuan's audition

In just one month, Cheng Daoming and Huang Xiaoming were crowned Best Actor in the Beautiful Country Golden Globe Awards and Oscar respectively, and with the same work, it was enough to cause a sensation all over the world.

Among Chinese domestic actors, as long as they are a bit ambitious, they are inquiring about Lin Hong's next work arrangement, and everyone wants to cooperate with Lin Hong.

"I don't care, if you can't get me the role of director Lin Hong's next film, there is no need for this studio to exist!"

"As long as it's a play directed by Lin Hong, help me win any audition for any role, even if it's a kangaroo!"

"Lin Hong's way is not going to work, so we should build a good relationship with those close to him, and try to start acting in a supporting role."

And those actors who have collaborated with Lin Hong before are very lucky, because Lin Hong is a nostalgic person, and often if there is a suitable role, he will first consider using an acquaintance.

Moreover, Lin Hong can always become friends with the actors he has worked with. So far, I have not heard of any actor who has worked with him. very happy.

At the pick-up gate of Beijing International Airport, countless fans and news media are waiting, and the State Administration of Optoelectronics has also sent people to pick up the plane. Anyway, Huang Xiaoming can win the Oscar for Best Actor, which is the honor of Chinese filmmakers. It is worth writing a special book once.

However, Lin Hong did not come back with everyone this time. He still has work to deal with in the beautiful country, mainly because he and Spielberg need to complete the casting of the movie "Joker-Origin of Evil".

And this work will take at least two weeks to finish, because there are more than 30 candidates for the audition for a clown alone, and more than half of them are well-known Hollywood actors, even Brad Pitt is among them.

This shows how attractive this movie is, not to mention the collaboration of the old and new generations of talented directors to write and direct the film.

When the crew of "The Truman Show" walked out of the terminal, Huang Xiaoming felt that the years when his popularity was at its peak were nothing more than that.

Not far away, a newly promoted boy group who just got off the plane was also picked up by fans. Their C-person Ah Kun was very pleased to see the fanatical girls, but for some reason, his eyes always glanced at the fans on the other side , although they are not that crazy, but they give people a sense of reality.

"What's the matter, Akun?"

Teammate Fan Zhenzhen saw that Akun was fascinated by watching from a distance, so he asked.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly envy you over there."

As an idol who is at the peak of his popularity, it is a good thing to be able to reflect on the situation he is in, but he also knows that this can only be envy.

Regardless of the overwhelming popularity of idols, there is no shortage of resources for variety shows and film and television dramas, but they also know that their value is only to bring popularity to programs and works. Really big productions and in-depth programs rarely invite them .

As for Huang Xiaoming's transformation from an idol actor to the current Oscar winner, perhaps only he knows how painful the process is.

"Don't just be envious, you can take the initiative. Let me tell you something. My sister has inside information. Director Lin Hong wrote a web drama book. The director is Qian Ninghuan. It is said that it is about the game Cross Fire."

Akun was overjoyed, he was familiar with CrossFire, he played this game a lot when he was a child, and he spent a lot of money on equipment and skins.

The point is that Fan Zhenzhen's sister is Fan Bingbing, and this news is probably true.

"But will director Lin Hong use traffic actors?"

Although the director is Qian Ninghuan, since Lin Hong wrote the script, it must still be based on Lin Hong. Everyone knows this.

"It is said that this book has two male protagonists. Do you know who Lin Hong recommended to Qian Ninghuan?"

"Who?"

"Lu Han!"

"Lu Han?"

"Yes, Lu Han!"

Ah Kun was a little dumbfounded. Lu Han's work focus has gradually shifted from variety shows to film and television in the past few years, but "Shanghai Cannon", which was released last summer, almost ruined his acting career. He was criticized everywhere from acting skills to professional attitude.

The most important thing is that Lu Han left the popular variety show "Running" at this time, and the popularity he relied on the most also plummeted because of his relationship with Guan Xiaotong.

But under such circumstances, Lin Hong can still recommend Lu Han, which shows that he does not dislike or discriminate against idols, which is rare in the director circle.

"Do you have an idea for another leading role?"

Akun tentatively asked, although his popularity in the group is fault-leading, but he is only a few blocks away from Fan Zhenzhen in terms of film and television resources. There is no way, who let people have a sister who is Fan Bingbing!

"I don't want to act for the time being. I'm too tired. It's more fun to record variety shows. But my sister insisted on letting me try it, so I agreed.

How about it, do you want to try it together? "

Fan Zhenzhen doesn't care about multiple competitions, anyway, this opportunity is not a must.

But Ah Kun is different, he is ambitious in his career, if he can catch Lin Hong's line at the peak of his popularity, it will definitely be even more powerful.

So after getting out of the airport and getting into the nanny car, Ah Kun sent a message to his studio with a very simple request, trying his best to win another leading actor in Qian Ninghuan's new play.

However, what Akun didn't know was that there were too many people fighting for this role.

"Little Lu, I won't make things difficult for you, as long as you reveal the requirements of the role you play with, it's fine!"

"Mr. Lu Han, our endorsement is about to expire, and we hope to sign the next contract as soon as possible."

"Lu Han, you have a good relationship with director Lin Hong, please help Xiaozhou to speak up, and you will be rewarded!"

Lu Han has received a lot of calls like this in the past few days, some are asking to reveal the plot to prepare for the audition, some are asking for help to speak, and some sponsors who wanted to terminate the contract before suddenly want to renew the contract.

Lu Han was very moved by the turbulent news. The entertainment industry is really changing every day. Think about how many people wanted to step on him when "Shanghai Cannon" failed miserably.

But now it's just that a character has just been cast in a new play, and the situation has changed drastically. Even those who stepped on him at the beginning come to congratulate him and ask for help as if nothing happened. This is really funny.

To be honest, Lu Han didn't know why Lin Hong suddenly called him to invite him to appear in his new web drama. Although he didn't direct it himself, it was very sincere.

No matter what the reason was, Lu Han immediately agreed to Lin Hong's invitation without even discussing with his agent Yang Zhenzhen.

What warmed Lu Han's heart the most were the two requests Lin Hong gave him:

One, grow long hair, we will prove to everyone that Lu Han with long hair can also act well.

Second, play games, and play the game Crossfire with enthusiasm.

Lu Han almost cried after hearing these two requests from Lin Hong, because in "Shanghai Cannon", he was complained about playing soldiers with long hair, and he was criticized because the battle scenes looked like playing games.

However, what everyone doesn’t know is that the long hair is what the director said can reflect Lu Han’s youthful heart and love for life. Fighting is like playing a game. Is this something he can control? It’s the post-production and art.

Lin Hong's two requests undoubtedly gave Lu Han the best chance to prove himself, and the plot was definitely set according to the face of black fans.

So during the recent period, Lu Han played games every day under the supervision of Yang Zhenzhen, and bought him several shampoos that promote hair growth to try out in turn. If Lu Han hadn't received the script, he would really doubt Lin Was Hong joking with him?

Lin Hong, who is far away in the beautiful country, is really busy these days. He was filming in China before, and he often casts roles from God's perspective.

As long as the needs of the role are determined, then he can match his abilities in the entertainment industry, and he can always find the actor he likes smoothly.

It is different in Hollywood. "Joker-Origin of Evil" has nearly 40 named roles. Although he knows the needs of these roles, he is not familiar with Hollywood actors, especially those who need to play supporting roles and small supporting roles. , he knew even less.

Fortunately, the candidate for the role of the clown was finalized in only four days. Jacques Phoenix impressed the two directors with his natural sense of vicissitudes and decadence. He successfully defeated Brad Pitt and Heath Leigh. Jie et al got the role.

However, Lin Hong still made a request to him.

"Dude, you're in great shape, but I still need you to lose weight, and I want you to lose 40 lbs before filming starts!"

Spielberg originally had such a plan, but he didn't expect Lin Hong to say it first.

"That's right Jacques, Lin Hong and I have the same idea, if you act in it now, it will be a wonderful movie.

If you can lose 20 pounds, it should be a classic movie.

If it was 40 lbs, believe me, it would be a great piece of work. "

"Mr. Directors, what if I lose 50 pounds?"

"Then we may need an emergency doctor on the set!"

Lin Hong's humorous response finally determined the final candidate for the clown, and the first thing Joaquin Phoenix did when he left the audition hotel was to tell his agent that he would stop eating sugar and salt for the next month, and find him a room. A hut away from the crowds, where he shuts himself up to experience the character.

Later, Hong Lin and Spielberg auditioned for the rest of the roles respectively. This time, both of them acted as casting directors themselves, which also allowed more actors to sign up to participate.

It's just that Lin Hong's efficiency is obviously not as high as Spielberg's.

After two days of torment, Lin Hong discussed with Spielberg and finally decided to hand over the later casting to Spielberg. He believed in the old man's vision.

There is still more than a month before the official start of filming, and Amblin's team is responsible for the preparatory work. Of course, Lin Hong will not wait in the beautiful country, so when he and Ding Qian returned to the capital without warning At that time, only his fiancée Song Xiaoxiao brought Wuyunge to the airport to pick him up, and the others didn't even know that Lin Hong was back.

"Crossing the Line of Fire" is a network drama directed by Qian Ninghuan, jointly invested by Hualiu Film and Television and Yitian Film and Television.

This is Qian Ninghuan's first time directing a feature film. He is very dedicated to this and hopes to do his best in all aspects.

Of course, Lu Han and Qian Ninghuan, who was recommended by Lin Hong in the role of Xiao Feng, believed it, but he was always uncertain about the other important roles.

Qian Ninghuan is actually very talented, but he has a slight social barrier and is very bad at communicating with people, so during the audition, the actor didn't know what kind of performance he wanted.

Looking at the bewildered actor who came to audition for Su Jiayi, Qian Ninghuan felt very helpless, but he knew that the problem was not with the actor, but that he gave him a page of the script, and other requirements were too vague. actors, or read the full set of scripts, who knows what kind of reaction the director wants.

"Am I only suitable to be an executive assistant director?"

Just as Qian Ninghuan was thinking so, the door of the audition room was knocked, and then the door was opened, and an unexpected figure walked in.

"Lin Hong, why are you here?"

Qian Ninghuan immediately stood up. He really admired Lin Hong, and he was also one of the few people he could communicate with normally.

"I just came back last night, so I didn't bother you!"

When the audition actress saw Lin Hong coming in, she was so excited that she almost cried out, but thinking about the purpose of her visit today, she suppressed her excitement and obediently stood aside.

"I didn't bother you. It's great that you're here. This audition made me want to die. Only now do I know that the early stage preparations are so difficult."

Lin Hong came here on purpose today because he knew that Qian Ninghuan would encounter such a problem. There was no way. His social skills and talents were inversely proportional. If he didn't help him, the start-up might be delayed until the second half of the year. go.

"Don't worry, I'm here!"

Hearing Lin Hong's words, Qian Ninghuan's heart instantly became clear.In his mind, Lin Hong was his master. Although this master was younger than him, his professional ability was definitely qualified.

Qian Ninghuan immediately gave up his examiner's seat, and Lin Hong just sat there without being polite. Anyway, this is not the director's chair on the set.

"Hello, let me introduce myself first!"

Lin Hong smiled at the actress, who suddenly felt like a deer bumping around.

"Hello, Director Lin Hong. My name is Qiao Xin. I am 24 years old and come from Yixinyi Entertainment Brokerage Company. I am 1.7 meters tall and weigh 48 kilograms. I graduated from Central Opera. The role I auditioned for today is Su Jiayi."

Lin Hong listened to Qiao Xin's self-introduction while observing her body shape. She has a beautiful face and a good figure, and the feeling through the camera is also very good.

Moreover, this is a colleague of Li Xian and Lu Han's company, which can be regarded as a relationship. If the performance is similar to other competitions, then he can basically be given a role.

Shouldn't the audition in this situation be quite simple? Why did you see Qian Ninghuan's constipated face when you first came in?

"What did you perform just now, let me see if you perform it again."

Qiao Xin was a little uncertain, but since Lin Hong wanted to see it, she could only perform it again.

The script that Qiao Xin got was the scene when Su Jiayi and Wang Kai met for the first time in a 1vs1 duel. It contained not only real lines, but also rival scenes in the game.

Before getting multiple scripts and knowing the setting of the show, anyone who reads a page of the script will be confused.

So Qiao Xin didn't know what she was acting, she was normal for a while and crazy for a while, so she almost cried at the end of the performance, wondering if this is the script of the best screenwriter, it really is so difficult!

Lin Hong gave Qiao Xin a calm smile, then turned to look at Qian Ninghuan.

"What do you think is the problem with this performance?"

"There is no distinction between reality and games, and the settings of the two worlds are chaotic."

Qian Ninghuan was as serious as a primary school student answering a teacher's question, and Lin Hong agreed with his answer, but it was not enough.

"Then how to solve this problem?"

"Clarify the world setting to the audition actors, or give some more script information."

Lin Hong shook his head, and Qian Ninghuan quickly realized that this method was wrong.

"You can't guarantee that every audition actor can successfully enter the group, so the world view and role setting should be as little as possible, and the script should not be given too much. This is one of the core tasks in the risk management and control of the crew.

In this situation, you have to be good at communicating..."

Lin Hong suddenly realized that he had also entered an endless loop. Qian Ninghuan was just not good at communication, otherwise how could such idiot problems come up.
