Entertainment upstart

Chapter 313 Yuhuatian and Fengli Knife
"It's good that you understand. Prepare well. There shouldn't be any problem. Adjust the schedule quickly and join the group earlier. I'll see how you've learned all the countless routines. Teacher Wu hasn't done it for many years. It's a compliment, I praised you several times on the phone that day."

"Hehe, yes, I will make arrangements. When I really join the group, then I will ask Brother Jie to give me some pointers. As for Mr. Wu, I am his closed disciple, so of course he will praise me." Zhou Xia said excitedly.

"Well, don't be too cautious when you meet Mr. Xu. He has a lot of personality, but he is very nice. If you have a good image, high popularity, and really good action routines, he will definitely ask you to cooperate more in the future.

After all, the current action actors can be regarded as inactive, just like when I worked with me back then.All right, I won't talk nonsense, you write down this phone number! "

"Okay, I'll remember. I don't dare to compare with Brother Jie, let me tell you the phone number."

"That's right, I forgot, you have a good memory." Jet Li said, and quickly reported a number.

"Understood, Brother Jie, that's it, you pay attention to your body, I hope I can satisfy the director, then join the group and continue to learn martial arts with Brother Jie."

"Well, don't disappoint me, that's all."

Zhou Xia said a few words to Li Lianjie, and the two hung up the phone.

He originally wanted his assistant to contact Mr. Xu and Berna, but in the end he made a phone call in person, which showed his sincerity and importance.

The call was answered by Director Xu's assistant, and soon the two parties agreed to audition in the afternoon.

According to Li Lianjie, first pass the audition to satisfy the director.

Then it was time to discuss the terms of cooperation with Berna. If some concessions were made, the producer should be able to dispel the previous idea of ​​letting Chen Kun play the role.

Only when the director and producer are satisfied can he get the role.

If he can really participate in this movie, it will be his first big movie!
Still cooperating with a famous director, it's a costume action movie, which makes Zhou Xia full of expectations.

Moreover, I still cooperate with excellent actors such as Zhou Xun and Li Lianjie, and I can watch and learn more shooting skills and methods of action movies in the crew.

Zhou Xia had never made this type of movie in his last life. He mainly made some literary and romantic movies, aiming for awards and box office. It is true that he has not had time to touch blockbuster movies.

Before the audition in the afternoon, Zhou Xia read the script sent by the other party, and then recalled the roles of Yuhuatian and Fenglidao in the original movie.

These two roles are played by one person, there should be some kind of foreshadowing of twins, but it is not clear in the movie.

One character is Yu Huatian, who is the leader of Xichang, with power over the government and the public.

The biographies of the characters in the script are brief, but the descriptions are wonderful.

Commanding the palace, giving power to the court and the public, with a wave of his long arm, he rounded up knights thousands of miles away; with a finger of a horsewhip, he chased and killed concubines in the desert.

In terms of skill, there are few people in the world who are on the right; in terms of mind, the cunning layout is impressive.However, a little pride loses everything, and a lot of ambition goes to waste.

The other character, Feng Li Dao, is a smart person who wanders around the rivers and lakes, greedy for money, lustful, and eloquent. There is also a wonderful biography of the character.

In the desert of exploring treasures, with a finger winding a steel wire, one-third of the ability is seven-point courage; the tongue is brilliant, and it only talks about gold regardless of feelings.Wisdom turns the universe, cleverly plays with the public in the palm of the stock; turns the wind into rain, and wears a plain robe dyed with lead.If you say he is ruthless, you would rather give up all your money than hide your sincerity; if you praise him for being smart, you will be hard to find once you enter the imperial city.

After these two roles were released in the movie that year, Chen Kun's popularity soared, and everyone recognized his acting skills even more, especially the nickname of "Flower Factory".

Zhou Xia lacks the ability to participate in this kind of commercial blockbuster right now, and he can improve his acting skills, broaden his acting career, and improve his celebrity status.

Compared with Chen Kun in this role, his acting skills are worse, and his status and grade are also worse.

But his popularity and box office appeal are still recognized by everyone.

Moreover, he has the identity of a certain man and was recommended by Li Lianjie, coupled with his own advantages in martial arts and other advantages, if he competes with Chen Kun, he still has an advantage.

Zhou Xia didn't have the company's regular meeting. She prepared the role all morning, and went to Berna's film company in the imperial capital early in the afternoon at two o'clock in the afternoon to meet Director Xu and others.

Xu Ke has been preparing for casting recently, and has been busy with several main creators in the imperial capital.

Guided by the staff, Zhou Xia entered the large audition hall, and met directors Xu Laoguai and Zhang Zhiliang, screenwriters He Jiping and Zhu Yazhen, producers Shi Nansheng, Sun Hebin, and Bona's boss Yu Dong.

What everyone doubts about Zhou Xia the most is his acting skills!

After all, this role is very important in the movie, and the screenwriters originally prepared it for Chen Kun.

As early as early September, when Li Lianjie had finalized the script and roles with Li Lianjie, Li Lianjie had recommended Zhou Xia at that time, but was politely rejected by Yu Dong and Lao Xu.

Although Li Lianjie was unhappy, he didn't say anything.

However, after Hawthorn was released in mid-September, Zhou Xia once again proved his box office appeal. In addition, he performed Kung Fu at the premiere of "Hawthorn" and showed his hand. After the broadcast of "Snow Leopard", he once again proved that His acting skills and popularity continue to rise.

This time Li Lianjie asked them to hope that Zhou Xia could play this role before signing the contract. Yu Dong and Xu Ke made a favor and agreed to try Zhou Xia.

As long as the acting skills pass the test, they will let Zhou Xia play this role, so it is also very important to try out the play, try on the look, and discuss various conditions later.

After Zhou Xia said hello to several people, he performed his sword and saber martial arts routines as required, as well as other martial arts routines such as boxing and kicking.

Old Freak Xu became more and more satisfied the more he watched, and after whispering to several members of the main creative team, he asked Zhou Xia to go out for a make-up audition.

Zhou Xia went out with the staff, and when she arrived at the dressing room, she changed into the company's attire first.

It was Changhua's white python robe, black dragon cloak, black buckskin boots, and black official hat embroidered with gold thread and without wings.

This outfit showed Zhou Xia's majesty, looking very domineering and fierce, but as the makeup artist powdered Zhou Xia, he changed the color of his eyebrows and lips, and applied light eye shadow.

Zhou Xia was speechless looking at herself in the mirror.

No wonder Li Lianjie said that he is suitable to play the father-in-law. In other words, with such makeup, even a man can look like a eunuch.

This is too feminine!

When Zhou Xia complained in his heart, the makeup artist finally finished his makeup after spending half an hour.

And during the time when Zhou Xia went to put on makeup, several movie creators who had auditioned for him had already been discussed.

Among them, Zhang Zhiliang, Master Xu, and Shinansheng thought that Zhou Xia was very good and wanted to use Zhou Xia.

They have all read Zhou Xia's resume. Zhou Xia's English is also good, her acting skills are also good, her image is good, and she has the sign of Lao Mouzi. She will definitely make a name for herself in the entertainment circle in the future. Now they have a good relationship. , can be regarded as finding newcomers. If you perform well, you can continue to cooperate in the future.

After all, ancient costume action movies have entered a downturn after going through a lot of shooting in the past few years. There is a new action star who may make this genre popular again.

In addition, Master Xu and Zhang Zhiliang also have some relationship with Lao Mouzi.

When Lao Mouzi wandered around Xiangjiang, he also had some contact with these people.

When Zhang Zhiliang was filming "Magic Attack", Lao Mouzi was invited to visit the set. He had a good relationship with action director Cheng Xiaodong.

It's a pity that the movie "Magic Attack" has a good reputation, but it didn't sell well.

As for Shinansheng, her ancestral home was in Shanghai, she was half of Zhou Xia's hometown, and she had a close relationship with Li Lianjie, so of course she was willing to use Zhou Xia.

As for the other four, Yu Donggua, the boss of the producer Berner, did not express his opinion in a hurry.

They are the producer of Berna Films, but he is mainly responsible for distribution, promotion, etc. The other aspects of the movie are done by xj's team.

He can suggest casting, but does not have the final say.

As for the other three Xiangjiang screenwriters, they didn't have much say. They could say whatever the director said, and they could only agree.

When Zhou Xia came back again, these people stopped discussing, and all stared blankly at Zhou Xia who was dressed in fancy clothes!

　I owe one more and make it up tomorrow.
