Chapter 238 Sisters

May 6th, sunny.

Suzhou Fu, Outside Wuzhong Film and Television City, Film and Television City Hotel, Meeting Room No. 4.

At this time, the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" crew shooting coordination meeting Soochow special meeting is being held. There are nearly 20 people present here. In addition to several high-level executives from the Cao Wei Group and the Shu Han Group, there are also high-level executives from the entire crew, including several producers, chief directors, deputy chief directors, art directors, and casting directors. The executive director of Soochow Group and other relevant people were all present.

The Soochow group started filming in April, and it has been more than 20 days now, and a lot of shots have been taken, and this is the second Soochow special session of the filming coordination meeting.

The reason is that after watching the previous shots, including the chief director Feng Yumin, the senior staff of the crew were very dissatisfied with the shooting work of Soochow Group.

Of course, it is mainly dissatisfaction with the performance of the actors.

Especially the little overlord of Jiangdong, Sun Ce.

The character Sun Ce was very important in the early period of the Three Kingdoms, but in the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", to be honest, even if the crew did not completely follow the original script to write the script, for the Soochow branch, a lot of drama was added. I tried my best to make the story of the bully sweeping Jiangdong more full, but there were still not many shots. Sun Ce is just a slightly more important supporting role in this play.

At first, out of the perspective of character interpretation, the crew chose an actor from a repertory theater troupe named Deng Yukun. Although he is in his thirties this year, he looks tender. The feeling of being tender is somewhat unsatisfactory, but it is not completely unacceptable. The most important thing is that Deng Yukun has a background in stage dramas and has a solid foundation. The director team all felt that if he came to play Sun Ce, he would definitely be able to win.

In fact, during the 20 days of filming, although only part of the two stories of the battle against Tai Shici and Yuxi's borrowing soldiers were filmed, his scenes were indeed very good, and his lines were extremely solid, which made the Soochow Branch The executive director team was quite satisfied, but Feng Yumin brought the production team to take a look, but immediately frowned.

Deng Yukun has no problems with literary and martial arts, but he was born in a niche, and has been the number one niche student in the drama troupe for ten years. Coupled with his unique temperament, his performance of Sun Ce seems a bit too much. Too refined!

When Feng Yumin came, he noticed something was wrong at a glance, so he quickly called Deng Yukun, and the two talked about the play. Deng Yukun has acted in plays for so many years, and he quickly understood what the director meant. But it’s useless to understand. Some things, such as temperament, such as the rhythm of speaking, tone, voice, etc., can only be fine-tuned, but it is impossible to have any earth-shaking changes at all. Therefore, elegance is elegance, and he looks like that. Even after two adjustments in makeup, he is still so elegant. In him, he can't find the heroic spirit that Feng Yumin wanted!

Please, who is Sun Ce?

That's the Little Overlord of Jiangdong!

Although he died at the age of twenty-six, his martial arts and martial arts are unmatched in the entire Three Kingdoms!

He lost his father at the age of seventeen. As the eldest son, he had to take on the burden of supporting and protecting the entire family at a young age. Then he first asked Yuan Shu to get back his father's old ministry, followed him to conquer the north and south, and made military exploits. He gave away the Emperor Yuxi, whom his father Sun Jian was obsessed with, and exchanged Yuan Shu for some small soldiers and horses, and began to sweep across several counties in the east of the Yangtze River with a devastating force, laying the foundation for the three divisions of the Eastern Wu Dynasty in one fell swoop!

Such a person, although it is certainly impossible to be a person who advocates force and has a strong personality as described in the novel, only from the fact that he can make such a career, it can be known that although he may be a little young in small things With his unique recklessness, his IQ is definitely not low, but even so, he should definitely not be a refined person!

Young, heroic, brave, upright, but not lacking in wisdom... This is the perfect Sun Ce in Feng Yumin's heart.

But Sun Ce, played by Deng Yukun, has wisdom, but almost all other characters are out of shape! Especially the scene where Yuan Shu secretly cried at the family banquet that has already been filmed, in Feng Yumin's opinion, he actually acted a bit useless!

How can this work!

The so-called Soochow branch line, other people and other actors can make do with it, but watching Sun Ce in the early stage, Zhou Yu in the middle stage, Lu Xun in the later stage, and Sun Quan, the lord of Soochow Wu, these four people absolutely cannot make do with it.

Once these four people make do with each other, Soochow's play will be abolished!

So, after Feng Yumin personally explained the play to Deng Yukun, he tried a few more shots and adjusted his makeup a few times. In the end, Feng Yumin had to call Deng Yukun alone, saying frankly that you can't play this role.

With China TV's brand name and Feng Yumin's status in the industry, he said that he couldn't act and that we had to change people. Although Deng Yukun was unwilling, he didn't dare to say or do anything, he could only take a little Compensation, obediently leave.

In addition to Sun Ce played by Deng Yukun, Feng Yumin is also quite dissatisfied with the actor playing Da Qiao. In his words, the role of Da Qiao is too quiet. As the daughter of Qiao's parents, she grew up in troubled times. It is the woman of Jiangdong Xiaobawang again, Feng Yumin still hopes that this actor's performance will not be too literary, it should be quiet and heroic. Only in that way will it be in line with the love between her and Sun Ce in the plot arrangement.

Therefore, the second Soochow special meeting, which was expected to take at least a few months after filming, was held in advance.

Moreover, almost all the shots taken before were discarded, and everything had to be started from scratch.

At the beginning of the meeting, everyone took out the materials of the actors who had participated in the audition for the role of Sun Ce, selected and commented one by one, and of course, began to recommend other actors. In short, everything revolves around the role of Sun Ce - so-and-so, who was born in a martial arts drama, has a tough expression, is also young and handsome, do you want to contact him for a try? I have an old friend who is a martial artist who sings Beijing opera. Should I ask him to recommend some young martial arts students? So-and-so should have just graduated from Chinese opera the year before last. Although he hasn't acted in any major dramas, have you watched that TV series a while ago? In a gangster drama, he plays a policeman. Although the role is not very big, I think his acting is quite decent. Do you want to get in touch?

Just like that, huh huh, the special session lasted for half an hour, and the producers and directors present here, who can be regarded as the most outstanding producers and directors in the entire domestic TV drama circle, have already drawn dozens of candidates come out.

Therefore, the audition for the role of Sun Ce was scheduled three days later.

The next thing to discuss is Da Qiao - this role is much simpler.

One is because there has never been a shortage of Huadan actresses in China. If you want to be young and beautiful, you will find a lot of them. There are no young actors who can get any formal roles. Even if they are actresses who have initially made a little name, the crew can find a dozen or twenty to choose from.

Secondly, although compared with the original work, the crew has already added a lot of scenes to the Soochow branch when writing the script, but "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is still a man's drama after all, and Soochow is not the main branch, so women Even if the character is an eternal beauty like Da Qiao, there are not many scenes, and it is even far behind her sister Xiao Qiao.

It is precisely because of this that in the previous casting, when a certain producer communicated secretly, Feng Yumin didn't care too much, and gave him the role smoothly until he saw the filmed part After that, I felt that the difference was too far, so I had to make an impromptu decision to change.

So, it is conceivable that within ten or twenty minutes, the names of twenty or thirty actresses were added to the minutes of the meeting—the audition meeting for the role of Da Qiao was scheduled for four days later .

Because so far, it is only an actor-level problem, so this Soochow special meeting is basically over here. Before the meeting ended, Feng Yumin said a few more words, I hope everyone will not stick to today after the meeting The people mentioned at the meeting, as long as they feel right in their hearts, feel free to call and invite someone to audition, and then announce the end of the meeting.

After the meeting was over, everyone walked out laughing and chatting in twos and threes. Although Feng Yumin was frowning just now, he quickly showed a smile, and even specially praised the executive director of the Soochow Branch Line, telling him not to worry. In addition, I am quite satisfied with the other work of the Soochow Group.

At this time, Jiang Jianming, the executive director of the group, was a little relieved, and couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said: "Fortunately, only two actors were changed. I was really afraid that you would change the actors in our group. After hard work and adjustments, I feel that I can start shooting, alas..."

Feng Yumin laughed twice, and then quickly praised and comforted him.

But although Jiang Jianming is a group director, he is considered a relatively well-known director in the TV drama circle. He is not the kind of person who is willing to let the producer and the chief director make rounds with you. Taking advantage of this fork, He asked: "After changing Sun Ce and Da Qiao this time, there should be no problems, right? Zhou Yu? Xiao Qiao? Lu Su? Which one do you think is inappropriate? If we want to change, let's do it as soon as possible. In the middle, you will destroy them all for me!"

Feng Yumin knew that the other party had resentment in his heart, and at this time he heard a few complaints from him, that is, he just laughed and said with a smile: "It's okay, it should be okay, so, let's call a few main actors and have a meeting Small meeting."

So, after the Soochow special session was over, it was followed by an actor symposium.

At the meeting, Feng Yumin must be the first to apologize. After all, this is a problem in the casting stage, and it was not resolved until after the filming started. It must have affected the normal work process and wasted many actors' performances.

Next, when talking about the two roles of Sun Ce and Da Qiao, when Feng Yumin hoped that everyone would be open to recommending suitable actors, many actors recommended people they knew well. At this time, Jiang Jianming seemed to suddenly think of something, and couldn't help but look at the girl in the farthest corner with a smile, and said to Feng Yumin with a smile: "The little king who plays Xiao Qiao, Wang Jinglu..."

He pointed at Wang Jinglu, saw her raised her head in astonishment, smiled, and continued: "I just found out a few days ago that her sister is a singer, and she is a very famous singer. Their group is called Five elements and my nature, I see, the two sisters look alike, and I think her sister's appearance is a bit in line with the temperament you mentioned, Director Feng, she is beautiful, but there is also some heroism in her beauty. In short, look It makes people feel that it is not the kind of limp temper. Or, let her try too? Let's let sisters play sisters, is this a good story?"

Feng Yumin was a little dazed at first, but then he reacted immediately. He looked at Wang Jinglu who was sitting in the corner with surprise, and asked, "Is your sister a singer? A singer?"

Wang Jinglu quickly stood up and nodded, "Yes, Director Feng, my sister's name is Wang Jingxue, and she's a member of the Five Elements and My Su group, that's, that's... I don't know if she can act."

Feng Yumin asked directly: "Do you have any photos?"

Of course there is, so Wang Jinglu nodded, saying that she has their new album in her room, with her photo on it, so Feng Yumin immediately said: "You go and get it, let me see it!"

A few minutes later, Wang Jinglu came back with a box of CDs, pointed to Wang Jingxue on the cover, and said, "This is my sister."

Feng Yumin looked down at the photo, his eyes were already bright, and then looked up at Wang Jinglu, he immediately slapped his thigh, "Qi la!"

... ... ...

After receiving Wang Jinglu's call, Wang Jingxue was a little stunned.

"What did you say? Let me play Big Joe?"

At that time, Wu Xing Wu Su had just finished a commercial performance and was on the way to the airport. With just a swipe of her words, Sun Ruoxuan, who was sitting in the same car, immediately lit up and couldn't help but turn to look at her.

On the phone, Wang Jinglu explained: "It's an audition. It is said that many people participated together. But just now, I saw what the chief director meant, and he probably liked you very much. He also specifically told me to call you."

Wang Jingxue continued to be stunned.

It's not like I have never done a cameo in a movie or TV. There is no way, good innate conditions, good looks, and such a good figure, to play a one-second shot vase in a TV series or a movie, all five of them are quite qualified.

However, for them, it's just a cameo appearance. If it is serious acting, they have never acted. And, again, whether it's an actor running to be a singer, or a singer running to be an actor, it's not that easy. It is precisely because of this that Zhou Pingping received the invitation of the heroine of the movie, which made everyone so greedy, and also made Zhou Pingping appear so confident when negotiating a contract with Huage Records.

Before that, Wang Jingxue never thought that she could still act!

Others don't know, but she herself knows it very well. She has a stiff expression and always has a cold face, but she really doesn't have any acting talent.

So at this time, even though she heard that the crew of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was there, and she might play the role of Da Qiao, she couldn't help but feel her heart pounding at the time, but after thinking about it, she still said: " Forget it, you know, I don’t know how to act, I’m satisfied if I can sing well. Besides, our commercial performances are so busy now..."

Before she finished speaking, Sun Ruoxuan couldn't help reaching out and stabbing her, "You idiot, of course I'm going! That's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"! Go, of course I'm going! Such a good opportunity, why not Go! If you don't believe me, report to the company, and the company promises to agree immediately!"

Wang Jingxue was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head for a moment, then raised his head again, but still said to the phone: "Apologize to your directors, just say that I really can't go, even if I do, I won't act, so help me push it! "

... ... ...

After hanging up the phone, Sun Ruoxuan looked at the calm Wang Jingxue and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

But soon, she took out her mobile phone and called the manager Sister Wu who was sitting in the car behind, straight to the point, and said, "Jingxue just received an audition invitation from the crew of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and they want her to attend." About Da Qiao's audition, but Jingxue rejected it, look..."

Wang Jingxue on the phone side turned to look at her in surprise, while Sister Wu on the other end of the phone was also stunned for several seconds.

Then, Wang Jingxue frowned and said, "What are you doing!"

But Sister Wu on the other end of the phone suddenly asked: "Is she crazy? You won't go to Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

... ... ...

After saying a few more words, Sun Ruoxuan hung up the phone, then looked at Wang Jingxue with a smile, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "You know the situation better than anyone else, even if it's just for negotiating with the company." If you can be more confident, even if it's just for the sake of the sisters, you must go for such a good opportunity!"

This time, Wang Jingxue hesitated for a moment and did not speak.

And a moment later, her phone rang.

She turned it out and saw, sure enough, it was Sister Wu.
