Chapter 129 Candidates

"Ah Mu, I'm going to North America to watch the Liangying concert. Do you want to go with me?" Liu Yifei said playfully, standing on tiptoes and folding her hands behind her.

"The one in Los Angeles?" Li Mu had heard Liu Yifei mention it before.

"Yeah! At the PASADENA Theater." Liu Yifei gently hugged Li Mu and buried herself on him.

"Forget it, go over there and call David and ask him to arrange a car to pick you up." Li Mu thought about the matter at hand and shook his head.

Liu Yifei was a little disappointed after hearing this, but she immediately wanted to move forward.

Unexpectedly, Shu Chang leaned against the door and said, "I asked you two to pay attention. It's still broad daylight."

Thanks to the villa area, it would have made headlines directly outside.

Liu Yifei's face turned red and she quickly let go of her hand, "Hehe, let's go then."

He took the duck-billed hat from Shu Chang and put it on his head. It looked cool with his outfit.

"It's such a cool life!" Li Mu smiled bitterly, these two people felt that life was the best, why were he so miserable?

There are a lot of things to deal with at hand, and there is no end to the busy schedule.

When you open your eyes, there are hundreds of people waiting for you to eat.

Li Mu cleared his mind. Young people should do something serious. Those two weird people were not included in the discussion.

By the way, Shu Chang seems to be a little troubled recently, and her relative's daughter is not an economical person either. Li Mu heard Liu Yifei mention this in private.

There are more and more traffic in the Imperial Capital, and compared to a few years ago, the speed is visible to the naked eye.

Li Mu also rarely enjoyed the traffic jam. Fortunately, the traffic jam didn't last long.

When I arrived at Mengying, it was almost eleven o'clock, and I saw the screenwriters working in full swing.

Li Mu nodded happily, the leeks were growing very gratifyingly.

"Director Li." Xing Aina suddenly came over and said hello.

"Hey, where is Ning Hao?" Li Mu was a little confused. The two of them had always been inseparable.

"This!" Ning Hao still had fruit in his mouth, looking like he wasn't full.

"What, did that sister treat you badly?" Li Mu couldn't help but teased when he saw Ning Hao's appearance.

"I rushed to Nortel in the morning and didn't have breakfast." Ning Hao explained.

"Oh? What's going on over there?" Ning Hao rarely goes to Nortel now.

"Teacher Tian asked me to come over at the Imperial College Student Film Festival, probably to win an award." Ning Hao was also happy. I guess this film festival wouldn't give him a small award, and he was already a famous director after all.

Li Mu instantly understood what Ning Hao meant. This was probably some school's intention to compensate. Ning Hao's movies have not been very popular in recent years.

"I guess you have to be invited too." Ning Hao said with a smile.

"I?"

Just when Li Mu was about to say something, Tian Zhuangzhuang's call came. He really told Ning Hao the right thing.

"You also come to the closing ceremony of the College Student Film Festival." Tian Zhuangzhuang's voice came from the microphone.

"If you don't give me a prize, why should I do it? I'm also a college student, so you guys are a bit stingy." Li Mu said jokingly.

Tian Zhuangzhuang raised his brows and cursed, but he couldn't hide his smile, "You boy, we are embarrassed to give it to you, but you are embarrassed to take it? After all, you are an international director, and you are still thinking about this small prize."

"Come over and present an award to Ning Hao, and also enhance the reputation of this film festival."

"Old Tian, ​​is it really okay for you to announce who won the award in advance like this? It's so unprofessional." Li Mu looked at Ning Hao and saw that he really won the award.

"Then do you think you will come?"

"Then we must go."

Li Mu gently hung up the phone and said to Ning Hao: "You really won the award, congratulations."

Ning Hao also smiled: "What kind of prizes do we have to see?"

However, the two of them also had some guesses. Although Tian Zhuangzhuang didn't say it clearly, it was not difficult to guess the prize.

You can get a rough idea just by looking at the shortlist.

"How's "No Man's Land" going?" Li Mu asked about Ning Hao's recent movies.

"We are ready. After winning the prize, we will go to the Northwest."

"Okay, "Painted Skin" has to go there too, but it's Phoenix City." Although the two movies are in the Northwest, they are still a bit far apart.

"I'll also read the script. I like the story, but it's a pity that I can't direct it in this style." Ning Hao also wanted to take a look. This story of a Chinese fairy tale is really attractive.

"The writing team has it, take it for yourself."

"okay."

Li Mu returned to the office and prepared to handle his daily work.

Lu Yang and Wu Ershan came in quickly.

There was also a stack of documents in his hands. It seemed that they were the actors they had selected after working together for several days without sleep.

"Director Li, the person we selected is here." Lu Yang put the document on the table and waited for Li Mu's feedback.

Li Mu didn't hesitate, picked it up and read it.

The three most important characters are undoubtedly Wang Sheng, Xiao Wei and Wang Sheng's wife Pei Rong.

Good guy Wang Sheng and the others picked quite a lot of people.

"By the way, Director Li, Zhang Ziyi came to see us." Lu Yang said suddenly.

"Isn't she going to star in "Mei Lanfang"? She's so ambitious. She wants to get involved in everything. How did you reply to her?" Li Mu knew that Zhang Ziyi probably couldn't contact him, so he found the person below.

"What else can I do? Just refuse. The Japanese advertisement and the American photo mean that she is not suitable for the role in the crew." Lu Yang saw clearly that Xiao Wei definitely couldn't let him play the role, so Pei Rong, but that is a dignified role. She is definitely not suitable for this role.Li Mu nodded, as long as these two guys are not stupid.

Li Mu looked through the list of leading actors they handed over: Huang Xiaoming, Feng Shaofeng, Sha Yi, Duan Yihong, Zhang Jin, Chen Kun, Jiao Enjun
"You have a lot of male actors to choose from. Which one do you like best?"

"Jiao Enjun." The two said in unison.

"Why do you think of him?" Li Mu was a little confused. This Erlang Shen was so handsome that Li Mu was afraid that he would suddenly transform and knock down these monsters with too weak magic power.

"Director Li, he is really suitable. Whether it is temperament or acting skills, we all agree that if he plays Wang Sheng, then the charm of the protagonist will come out."

"This face feels too handsome." Li Mu thought for a while, and the most important scene in this movie, the highlight is actually Xiao Wei.

In fact, the male protagonist did not leave much of an impression on the audience in his previous life.

If it were Jiao Enjun, this drama might be different.

"Make-up can make him look ugly, and Director Li, don't you think this can make Xiao Wei's love at first sight more convincing? And in this way, the protagonist's later struggles can be more engaging for the audience."

"Okay, let's take a look." Li Mu didn't hesitate. This person's temperament is really suitable.

Opening the list of Pei Rong actresses, there are quite a few.

Pei Rong: Yu Feihong, Xu Qing, Hu Jing, Zeng Li, Yuan Quan, Zuo Xiaoqing, Zhao Yanzi
Li Mu looked at the list: "This list? It's rare. Not all of them are successful. If you pay attention, you won't be scolded when you go back."

Yu Feihong is still working on her "Love Is Afterlife", and I don't know if Ning Hao will feel aggrieved when he watches his "No Man's Land" after it is broadcast later.

Hu Jing, Xu Qing, and Li Mu still remember the look of their cheongsams, but they were not very suitable to play Pei Rong.

"Doesn't it depend on what the final selection looks like?" Lu Yang replied weakly.

When Li Mu heard this, he immediately understood that he still had the consciousness of being a Nortel director.

It seems that the person you like is still a charmer?

Li Mu stared at the two of them closely, "No need to give me a bad look, just tell me."

Lu Yang and Wu Ershan were also a little embarrassed. Although they wanted to speak to the Nortel actors, they felt uncomfortable choosing.

"We think Yuan Quan is quite suitable. Her face shape should suit Pei Rong's dignified temperament in ancient costume."

"That's true." Li Mu thought of Yuan Quan's performance in "The Intouchables" and nodded subconsciously.

Acting is also remarkable.

But Li Mu looked at the name Zuo Xiaoqing and said, "I think Zuo Xiaoqing is also suitable. How did you choose her?"

Li Mu was a little puzzled.

"She has played the role of Shi Gege in "The Qianlong Dynasty" and the elegant style in "The Famous Catcher in Guandong". We studied it and felt that her temperament is also suitable."

Lu Yang explained everything exactly.

"It's just Zuo Xiaoqing. Make an appointment for an audition." Li Mu made the decision directly.

As for Zhao Yanzi, Li Mu never thought about it. This demon maker was too powerful.

The second female lead becomes the first female lead, and finally the double female leads.

Afraid of affecting the image, the plot of taking poison was directly changed.

This was all the director could bear at the time. If he had been killed, there would have been no way out.

Lu Yang and the two had no objections. In terms of temperament, Yuan Quan and Zuo Xiaoqing were indeed more suitable.

The most important character, Xiao Wei, Lu Yang and Wu Ershan all know that this character is the key to the success or failure of this drama.

The most distinctive character in the script, "a demon who is as sentient as a human being" is aptly described in this movie.

Li Mu was also curious about who they would choose. When he opened the list, there were only two people.

Fan Binbin, Zhou Xun.

After Li Mu read it, he also smiled and cursed: "You guys know how to choose, it's quite easy."

"Director Li, it's not that we're saving trouble, it's that we've thought a lot about this role. We feel that these two are the only ones who are slightly suitable for the role. If Wen Bixia and Fu Yiwei are younger, we can add two more people."

Lu Yang was also very helpless. Xiao Wei in the script was the most difficult to cast.

Li Mu thought about it carefully and found that besides the two of them, there was another person who was also suitable, but Lu Yang didn't dare to write it in.

"It would be great if these two people combine their strengths." Li Mu also felt a little regretful.

"Who wouldn't want to?" Lu Yang smiled seductively.

"Then let's go to Zhou Xun. Spiritual energy is more important than enchantment." Li Mu thought for a long time and decided to use Xiao Wei from the previous life.

"I would say that Director Li must choose Zhou Xun. Fan Binbin is not smart enough and only has a good figure, so he is not worthy of this role." Lu Yang looked at Wu Ershan with a proud look on his face.

There are only two leading actors left, and they are not very important. Pang Yong is a martial artist.

"Just Hu Jun, he is a martial artist, so he suits him very well." Li Mu looked at the list and made his decision directly.

As for Donnie Yen, he is not considered. He is not tall enough, so how can he act as powerful as the former general.

"Director Li, Hu Jun should still be acting in "Red Cliff"." Lu Yang seemed to suddenly remember.

"His role is in the back. His role in "Red Cliff" is not important, and ours is not important either. You go and communicate first."

"Red Cliff is also full of disasters, but I heard that Tony Leung is preparing to take over Chow Yun-fat's Zhou Yu." Lu Yang mentioned the gossip in the industry.

"It should be true. Tony Leung and Wu Yusen have a good relationship." Li Mu also heard the rumors.

After learning that Wu Yusen was in trouble, Liang Chaowei finally stepped forward. This role replacement can be considered a success.

Jin Chengwu naturally turned into Zhuge Kongming, and the most handsome Zhuge Liang in history was born in such a dramatic way.
