Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

Chapter 125 Cute child

Since the background of the story was moved to Hong Kong, ET's Chinese title was directly simplified to "Alien", and little ET's name was also changed to Xiao Yi.

However, the English title still uses "ET the Extra-Terrestrial".

After Yang Ye placed an advertisement for actors in Ming Pao, he immediately caused a sensation in Hong Kong.

Because everyone felt that people on earth could no longer stop Yang Ye, so he was going to fight the aliens.

During this period, Lucas' "Star Wars" is setting off a box office craze around the world. Many people think that Yang Ye can no longer sit still and wants to get a share of the sci-fi film industry.

It’s not like science fiction movies have never been made in Hong Kong. Two years ago, Shaw Brothers made a special photo film "Chinese Superman", which was eye-catching on a giant horse. It was released for eight days and was hastily finished. The box office was 55 Hong Kong dollars.

During the Spring Festival this year, the Hollywood blockbuster "King Kong" grossed 500 million at the box office in Hong Kong. Shaw Brothers couldn't sit still anymore and made a copycat of "King of the Orangutans" and hired a blonde foreign girl with big boobs to be the heroine. Tarzan is said to be a masterpiece with a huge investment of 600 million.

It was released in the summer, but it was crushed by Bai Yang and Jiahe, and the box office barely exceeded 100 million.

Compared with those shabby knockoffs produced by Shaw Brothers, it is very exciting to see what type of movies Yang Ye will produce.

After all, the three movies he has released so far are all amazing.

However, his actor recruitment advertisement is very confusing. They are all...children.

Protagonist 1: Boy, 15-17 years old, demanding, handsome.

Protagonist 2: Boy, 9-11 years old, demanding, handsome.

Protagonist 3: Girl, 4-6 years old, demanding, cute.

The recruitment notice stated that there were three protagonists, and the conditions were very simple, but the citizens of the whole city were extremely excited. If they could become the protagonists of Yang Ye's movies...

There were even people in Taiwan who heard about this and sent their children's information to apply for the job.

In less than half a month, Baiyang Pictures received tens of thousands of materials.

Everyone has the mentality of taking advantage of everything, what if they are selected?

The requirements clearly stated that they must be handsome, but many ugly men also sent photos of themselves.

Yang Ye even saw eight taels of gold. Damn it, can he pretend to be a middle school student just because he is short?
Although there is a lot of information, it is not difficult for Yang Ye, because Yang Ye is used to taking shortcuts when selecting actors, that is, directly choosing those who will be famous in future generations.

The reason is simple, it is convenient and less error-prone.

Yang Ye has no interest in choosing an actor who will not exist in future generations, and then slowly cultivating him. This is because he is full.

After preliminary screening, the remaining thousands of pieces of information were in Yang Ye's hands.

Yang Ye passed all the information from Taiwan, Singapore and other places, and only looked at the information from Hong Kong. It took him half a day to filter out a list.

Then I scanned the list of people who had been roughly selected and eliminated by the company to see if there was anything missing.

Then, the interview began...

"Hello teachers, my name is Liu Furong. I am 16 years old and six feet eight inches tall. I study in Keli Middle School and am in Form Four."

Yang Ye looked him over and asked, "Do you have any acting experience?"

Liu Furong said: "I have participated in performances by the school drama club, learned drama knowledge under the guidance of teachers, and participated in behind-the-scenes productions including screenwriting."

Yang Ye nodded, smiled and asked Chen Sisi next to him: "What do you think, Sister Mei, can I be your son?"

Chen Sisi looked at Liu Furong carefully and said, "He is quite handsome. Classmate Liu, I will give you a question, and you can try to perform it."

Liu Furong said nervously: "Teacher Chen, please give me the question."

Chen Sisi said: "It's raining outside today. Just act out what it would be like to come in under the rain. I'll give you 2 minutes to prepare."

Liu Furong thought for a while, covered his head with his hands, and ran in from outside.

Then he shook his hair coolly, then picked up his clothes and started wiping his head, then started twisting his clothes, finally took off his shoes, and poured water...

Yang Ye looked at Liu Furong's way of shaking his hair and couldn't help but feel a little funny.

Sure enough, for him, being cool is something that goes deep into his bones.

But having said that, he does look handsome!

"Three teachers, I'm done."

Liu Furong stood up and said respectfully.

Chen Sisi nodded and said with a smile: "It's not bad. Sister Meng, Aye, what do you think?"

Xia Mengdao: "He is very smart. He can design many actions in a short time, which is pretty good. It's just a bit... unrealistic."

After hearing Xia Meng's comments, Liu Furong couldn't help but feel a little nervous and a little confused.

Seeing this, Yang Ye said, "Go out now and soak in the rain for 2 minutes, and then come back in."

Liu Furong agreed and ran out quickly. After a while, he ran back again and said with a face of shame: "I understand!"

Yang Ye smiled and said: "You understand, right? Life is a drama, so you have to observe more."

It turned out that Liu Furong ran outside and was soaked in the rain for 2 minutes, and found that his clothes were not wet at all. When he just performed, it was nonsense to pour water with his shoes.

Yang Ye put a √ mark on Liu Furong's information and said, "Student Liu, please go back and wait for the news. If there is any result, we will call your home."

"Thank you three teachers!" Liu Furong felt that he had been eliminated and left with a frustrated look.

Xia Meng asked: "You want him to play the brother?"

Yang Ye was noncommittal: "Let's wait and see!"

After interviewing for a while, the three of them had lunch, took a rest, and continued in the afternoon.

"Hi teachers!"

A small boy said timidly.

Yang Ye and the two beautiful sisters made eye contact with each other, and one of them was introverted.

Xia Meng asked: "What's your name?"

"My name is Liming. I am 11 years old. I read Xiaowu."

Yang Ye asked: "You don't like to talk?"

Liming nodded, and Yang Ye asked again: "You can't do it if you can't let go of acting. Why did you come to participate in the audition?" "My father wanted me to have more contact with people outside, so he signed me up."

"You speak Cantonese with a slight accent. Aren't you from Hong Kong?"

"I was born in BJ."

"So that's why the kids here will bully you, right?"

"Yeah!" Dawn nodded.

"So, your personality has become very introverted?"

"Correct!"

"Do you have any talents that you can perform?"

"Can I...sing a song?"

"Okay, let's sing!"

As soon as Li Ming opened her mouth, she sang a song called "Under the Lion Rock", which she sang so well.

"Yes, you go back and wait for the notification. If you are hired, we will contact your father."

Dawn nodded, turned and left.

My parents are divorced, I am lonely, introverted, and my age is right. I have not started to grow yet, so I am small.

Yang Ye put a checkmark on Liming's name and said to Chen Sisi: "This boy is quite clever and knows how to sing my songs to please me. Sister Mei, this is your youngest son."

Chen Sisi smiled and said, "Did you like it?"

Yang Ye nodded: "It's him!"

In the script of "Alien", the protagonist has never had a name, but now Yang Ye has filled it in.

The elder brother's name is Zhang Zhihua, and the younger brother's name is Zhang Zhiming.

Xiao Ming is the most common name in China, just like Hans in Germany and Sam in the United States.

As for the coastal area, the most representative names are Zhiming and Chunjiao.

Moreover, this name also matches Li Ming's real name, which can be said to be quite appropriate.

As for his brother's name, Liu Furong will change it in the future.

After identifying Liu Furong and Liming, Yang Ye suddenly had a bad taste in his heart.

Otherwise... I have gathered the four heavenly kings.

In the movie, in addition to the protagonist's family of four, there are also several more important characters, namely several of the brother's classmates, who finally participated in the rescue of the little alien.

Yang Ye flipped through the list, and there was indeed one.

"It seems that I'm really famous now. If I choose a role in a movie, all the qualified kids in Hong Kong will sign up."

The leading role has been decided, and the interview still has to go through the motions. Yang Ye quickly selected Zhang Xueyou and Aaron Kwok.

Aaron Kwok is relatively young, just one year older than Liming, and was originally not suitable to be his brother's classmate.

But... he has grown, so he looks taller than Li Ming now, which is okay.

After spending three days deciding on the roles of the brothers, the next step was to interview for the role of the younger sister.

After seeing off the mother and daughter, Yang Ye yawned and said to Hu Yinmeng: "Yinyin, arrange the next one."

Xia Meng asked: "You didn't sleep last night?"

""Cang Hai" is almost finished. I stayed up all night and finished it in one go."

Xia Meng said with concern: "Don't rush to write the new book, take a rest first."

While the two were chatting, a young and beautiful female student walked in and introduced herself: "Hello teachers, my name is Guan Jiahui."

Yang Ye woke up from his nap and said with a confused expression: "Classmate Guan, we are recruiting little girls around five years old. How old are you?"

Hu Yinmeng ran in behind Guan Jiahui. When he saw that they were talking, he remained silent and stood aside.

Guan Jiahui said: "I came here to ask you, why don't you reply to me?"

"Um...what letter should I reply to?"

"Go back..." Guan Jiahui blushed. After all, she was only 15 years old. In front of so many people, she was embarrassed to talk about writing a love letter to Yang Ye. She said sternly: "Anyway, you can't hide from me."

Then he sent another love letter and said, "Please write me a reply this time!"

Yang Ye said dumbfounded: "Okay, okay, I understand."

"Then I'm leaving. Goodbye Brother Ye!" Guan Jiahui said, and then said obediently to Xia Meng and Chen Sisi: "Goodbye Aunt Yang, goodbye Aunt Chen!"

Xia Meng and Guan Jiahui waved, and Chen Sisi couldn't stop laughing.

"Aye, there must be so many love letters at home that there's no room for them, right?"

Yang Ye looked embarrassed and said to Hu Yinmeng, "Yinyin, what are you doing?"

Hu Yinmeng gloated: "She insists on breaking in, what can I do?"

Yang Ye, with one head and two heads, covered his face and said, "Forget it, next one!"

Yang Ye became more energetic after being made trouble by Guan Jiahui.

Unfortunately, after several interviews, he was not satisfied. Xia Meng said: "I think the one just now was good. He looked very well-behaved."

Yang Ye shook his head and said, "I don't want to be good, I want to be cute!"

"What is Moe?"

Um... Yang Ye just remembered that Meng now only means sprout, and the attached Meng culture has not yet appeared.Then he explained: "It means... it means very cute. It is best to have a chubby little face that makes people want to pinch it when they see it. If it has dimples or something, that would be even better."

After two more interviews, a mother walked in holding a pink and jade-carved little girl.

A round face, big eyes, and shallow dimples.

so cute!
