This actor is a bit arrogant

Chapter 15: The role is decided and the waves are broken! (Asking for votes!)

"Wind and Cloud" was also co-produced in two places, with investment companies from Beijing, Locomotive, Sichuan, and Shanghai Film...

All in all, a lot.

"Wind and Cloud" actually turned out to be a comic collection "Wind and Cloud" created by a cartoonist from Xiangjiang, Mr. Ma. This comic was once very popular among readers.

Director Liu Weiqiang there took the lead in adapting it into a movie, starring idol stars Guo Oucheng and Zheng Yinjian.

Of course, this film caused a sensation among the audience as soon as it was released and achieved good box office results.

Then smart TV producers will naturally not let go of this excellent subject matter. Just like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will also have a TV version, a TV series of the same name for "Wind and Cloud" has also been produced, and it is doing well. .

In fact, the central story of this film is very simple. In summary, it mainly tells the story of Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng who sacrificed themselves to fight in order to avenge their parents and for the safety of the entire martial arts world. A series of legendary stories of love, hate, and sacrifice for righteousness between heroes.

The director's surname is Xu, and he is from the Motorcycle Province.

But now everyone knows that the huge market in the mainland is actually the future of the entertainment industry. Everyone is here to beg for food, and Wang Xu, strictly speaking, is actually from the film and television company in Beijing.

So the director also gave me face. After all, he was a relative of the co-producer, so he thought he could come over and play a supporting role.

It happened to be a break, so the director came to see if the person was good enough, it was not impossible to arrange a good supporting role.

"Director Xu, hello teachers." Wang Xu stood in the presidential suite of the hotel and greeted the three teachers sitting on the chairs.

Except for Director Xu, who is from the Motorcycle Province, the other two people are from the mainland.

But there is nothing to describe his appearance. Anyway, he is ordinary and not as handsome as him.

"Don't be nervous, how old is Xiao Wang this year?" Director Xu's accent is not so motorcycle, at least it doesn't sound awkward to Wang Xu.

"Eighteen years old." Wang Xu didn't feel nervous at all, but looked very calm.

"Well, where did you go to the film school?" Director Xu also probably knew something about Wang Xu. After all, the person who originally recommended Wang Xu boasted that Wang Xu was the only genius in the film school.

"Yes, I just finished the exam this year and plan to join the art industry."

"Okay, what do you know?"

"Well, martial arts and memory are good, and other things are also involved." Wang Xu can't tell you what the final edit of this drama will be, so he can only say this.

"Oh? You know martial arts?" Director Xu was surprised, and he became interested at this time.

After all, this is a martial arts movie.

"Well, I learned a few moves from my family." Wang Xu's martial arts routines were all learned from his grandfather's guards and the like. He prefers the boxing and kicking skills of the army, and the moves are more ruthless.

But if you say that dancing with swords and sticks is not impossible, you must know that many martial arts routines are actually the most preserved, and the most complete ones are the troops, and Wang Xu can do it more or less.

After all, who didn’t have a childhood dream of dancing with swords and sticks?
It happened that some guards knew how to do it, so he learned some tricks.

"Try?"

Director Xu pointed at the simple weapon rack behind him.

There aren't many things on it, just a stick, a sword, and a big knife.

Of course, they are all props.

Wang Xu first tried the sword and found it a bit limp. He shook his head and put it back, then picked up the stick on the side. It was about eighty centimeters long and not limp.

Fortunately, the presidential suite is big enough for him to demonstrate.

After getting the stick, Wang Xu mentally recalled his original actions, and his whole temperament changed.

They cupped their hands at Director Xu and the others, then picked up the stick and used it as a sword. First he stabbed forward directly, then turned around, slashed downwards, jumped into the air, and swept across!

Even so, Wang Xu's breath was intact, and the sound of sticks waving through the air filled the room.

shhhhhh!
Not to mention Director Xu, even the other two people's eyes were shining. They could already be martial arts instructors in the drama.

Moreover, Wang Xu's appearance is not bad, and his career path is expected to be very broad in the future.

There is actually one knowledgeable person among the three. He can tell that Wang Xu is a real practitioner. His body skills are very good, but it seems that he may be better at boxing.But no matter what, this hand is enough!

"good very good!"

When Wang Xu finished his performance, the three people started to applaud in unison.

Then there is literary drama.

"You said you have a good memory?" Director Xu said, looking for the script.

Wang Xu nodded. He could now recall all the TV series and movies he had watched. After soul fusion, his memory was so good.

"Okay, look at this line for one minute and memorize it for me."

After Director Xu finished speaking, he gave the lines to Wang Xu, who sat aside and motioned to the camera for someone to come in.

He wants to see if Wang Xu can be on camera. This is the final destination of an actor.

It would be a pity not to be on camera.

40 seconds later, Wang Xu gave the script to Director Xu, and then began to recite it. At the same time, Director Xu looked at Wang Xu behind the camera, and the more he watched, the more satisfied he became.

Photogenic!

Simply perfect!

And Wang Xu memorized it every word!
He thought he had found a replacement.

The actor who played Duan Lang went out for a drink a few days ago and was hit by a car when he came back. Although the problem was not serious, he needed to recuperate for at least a month. He originally planned to go back and reshoot, but now he has a better candidate.

There haven't been many Duan Lang scenes filmed yet, so there's no time to change the cast, and although Wang Xu is young, he's still suitable for Duan Lang, depending on his appearance.

Of course, the filming of Duan Lang’s childhood must have been completed long ago.

"Do you understand the Broken Waves in "The Wind and Cloud"?" Director Xu leaned on his chair and looked at Wang Xu. This was considered the final test.

"I understand. In my opinion, Duanlang is the most inspiring character in the show. I have read the comics. He does not have the same adventures as Bu Jingyun or Nie Feng, but he relies on his own steps to work hard. Sit where Xiongba once sat."

"But all the hard work, in the end, was nothing. He is actually a successful person among us ordinary people. In fact, I personally feel that he cannot succeed because he is not called Duan Fengyun."

Wang Xu talked a lot, including his subsequent views, understanding, plot, etc.

Director Xu: .
Why does he feel that his understanding of this drama is not as profound as Wang Xu's?
Some of Wang Xu's later views even directly enlightened some of his ideas, and they were no longer so blocked!
He even felt that he should shoot as Wang Xu said!

Wang Xu's words were very clear to his train of thought.

"Okay, why don't you dress up and try acting?" Director Xu asked tentatively, and the other two people didn't have any objections. This was simply a break from the sky.

Moreover, there are people behind the scenes, and they are not vying for the first or second male lead, so just follow the director’s wishes.

The selling point of this drama is Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng, and at most a few more female characters.

Wang Xu naturally guessed that he might have found an opportunity, and followed the crew to try on the costumes.

An hour later, Director Xu looked at Wang Xu who was wearing Duanlang costume and looked very photogenic and nodded: "Okay, you are simply born to eat this kind of rice, Duanlang, can you play this role?"

At this time, Wang Xu really looked like the young man Duan Lang who stepped out of the comics.

"Acting." Wang Xu responded first, and then said: "Does that mean the pay will be increased?"

He remembered that he was the price of a supporting role, which was not acceptable.

And although in people's eyes now, people like Duan Lang who have become black must die, they don't know that one or two decades later, this will be the template for the protagonist.

Now Director Xu and others feel that the role of Duanlang is not a big deal, it is just a stepping stone for the protagonist.

But it’s not certain who will have the last laugh.

"That's natural." Director Xu nodded with satisfaction.

Now you can’t say that I don’t take care of your mainland actors and connections, right? It’s the best of both worlds!
