Chapter 48 Casting of "Legendary Famous Dan"
67 Casting of "Legend of Famous Danes"
After arguing for a long time about the investment and the distribution of rights and interests, 1905 Films went from being aggressive at the beginning to accepting the facts.Their purpose is to cooperate with famous domestic directors once, take the opportunity to open up the Chinese market, and want to take root in the Chinese film industry. What attracts them is China's huge market potential.The final result of the discussion is that 1905 can provide technology, personnel, and publicity support, but the production decision rests with Director Qian, who should not interfere with the film's style and plot.The investment ratio is equally shared by the four companies, and so is the income.Director Qian is both the director and producer of the film, and is responsible for the entire film.

"Director Qian, as an investor, we would like to ask about casting." The representative of the Chen Group said.

"I have received about 100 character recommendations so far," Director Qian said.

"Then can you tell me how to choose? What is the standard?"

"Director Qian, as an investor, we don't have the right to make decisions about the production, but we have the right to know."

"As for the protagonist, we plan to use two real Liyuan actresses, and another two popular stars."

"There is a supporting actress in the script, I don't know who do you want to play?" Chen's representative asked.

"The supporting actress in the script involves a love story. We need to discuss it further. This film focuses on four famous actors who are torn apart, and one of them has a bad love story. We are considering deleting this part."

"Delete? Why?"

"A movie is not long, and it is hard to control if there are too many clues. The theme of this movie is not love. If love cannot be added to the cake, it is better to delete it."

"Okay, listen to Director Qian's arrangement!"

After this meeting, the news of investing in the filming of "Legendary Famous Danes" spread like wildfire, and there was actually a post revealing that Lin Yu and Le Feng, the two leading actors of "The Wind and Cloud of the Ancient Capital", would play two of the four famous female roles.All of a sudden, Lin Yu and Le Feng's fans started another massive online war of words.

"Lin Yu is going to dress up as a man? Haha, it's so fun!"

"Baby Le Feng is going to the big screen? Alright, bull!"

"With vision, Lin Yu is finally going to cooperate with a great director! Director Qian has won a film award in the world!"

"Hey! We, Lin Yu, have a good singing voice. It's probably no problem to sing a play, unlike you Fengfeng, who can't sing but has mediocre acting skills."

"It's all about cooperating with us, Lin Yu, and copying the CP to the top!"

"Whoever copied the CP with you, Le Feng's acting skills are obvious to all!"

"Is that called acting? I can do it even if I haven't taken an acting class!"

"You get one!"

Then the brainless black stickers were posted one after another, all of them belonged to Hei Linyu.

"Lin Yu's appearance is too tough, it's not suitable for a man to pretend to be a woman at all!"

"Our Le Feng's face is so small, so delicate, it's suitable for anything!"

Someone with good deeds actually PS photos of the two Peking Opera female characters and posted them on the Internet.In the photo, Lin Yu deliberately drew thick eyebrows and big eyes with sharp edges and corners. Under the Beijing opera costume, she also showed her eight-pack abs. This post was turned upside down.

"Shu Yue, did you see it?" Xiao Ya's voice said.

"I see, is it the revenge caused by Peter operating to replace Le Feng in "The Wind and Cloud of the Ancient Capital" last time? You see a lot of black posts targeting Lin Yu!" Shu Yue said.

"Very likely, let's see."

A day later, someone on the Internet initiated a role-selection poll to support Lin Yu or Le Feng.When Shu Yue opened it, there were already millions of votes. It was obvious that Le Feng's score was higher than Lin Yu's.Some netizens cursed: "Lin Yu is a foreigner, our quintessence of the country, why let foreigners act?" High-level black, rising to the emotion of a famous family.

"That is, foreigners go back to their hometowns and don't come to China to make money."

There is constant abuse on the Internet, and it is hotly searched.

Qian Daoben had already arranged an audition and casting time, but due to the abuse on the Internet, he seemed hesitant.

"Master, you want to choose Lin Yu, right?"

"Well, his image is actually quite consistent with Cheng Yanqiu, a famous Peking opera star. I have seen his photos and the dramas he filmed."

"He is a Chinese citizen. It is a rumor on the Internet that he is a foreigner. He just grew up abroad."

"Oh, that's fine."

"Master, if he is really a foreigner, why don't you let him act just because of this?"

"Very likely."

"Isn't this a bit narrow..."

"Head Y, are you going to start talking about Master again?"

"No, you know he is an artist of our company, so you know me."

"As a teacher, I treat everyone equally, and I don't want to be called double standards."

"Okay, when are you going to audition for them?"

"Next week, what the hell is going on on the Internet! Hey, you young people are so noisy!"

....
The scolding war on the Internet started with the two actors, and now it is questioned that the selection of roles is not made public, it is all pre-determined, it is not fair!The words of some keyboard warriors are ugly.

"The whole thing is controlled by one hand, and the casting is all decided by one person, and good actors have no chance! They are all appointed internally."

"This circle is too dark!"

"It will always be those actors who go around, if you have the ability, you use newcomers!"

"That's right, I've been watching movies all over the place, finishing one movie after another by myself, it's boring!"

"This is a matter in other people's industries. It's not an official decision. Is it an audition? Let you act as an ordinary person, can you do it?"

"Do you understand his profession? Just spray!"

.......
The fact that the film has attracted so much attention and discussion while it is still in the preparatory stage is actually because of Lin Yu and Le Feng.Many people hate traffic stars, but traffic stars have indeed made contributions.

"Master, why don't you follow the public opinion on the Internet and launch a formal casting campaign. You formulate the standards and conditions for the four famous actors, and college teachers establish an actor evaluation index system, and then open the election and hand it over to the bidding company. Collect After completing the materials, score according to the evaluation index system. Scoring includes professional judges' scoring and audience scoring, industry experts and university teachers determine the weight of different scoring indicators, and finally determine the score value of each actor, and select the best for admission."

"Shu Yue, what kind of novelty are you talking about? It sounds good."

"This is a commonly used method of evaluation and scoring."

"Wouldn't it be self-defeating to choose an inappropriate actor in the end?"

"No, master, you don't trust my major, you should always trust college experts"

"You draft a manuscript and send it to all investors, and hold a meeting to vote."

"it is good."

Shu Yue was so busy that he rushed to two places within a week. He missed the two people, one big and one small, so he could only make video calls.Le Feng turned into a super dad and was very busy.

Shu Yue sent the suggestion to all investors, except for Chen's representative who did not reply, the other investors unanimously agreed to hold a meeting to discuss.

"Isn't it too complicated to choose this way?" Chen's representative questioned at the meeting.

"We very much agree that things that can be quantified should be quantified as much as possible." The 1905 representative said.

"It's great to get potential actors involved and give actors a chance!"

"Yeah, it's like promoting it in advance!"

"Then let's do it like this. Is it difficult to implement it?"

"It's not difficult to give it to a professional. It's a simple indicator system." Shu Yue said, her academic background began to play a role.

A week later, Dao Qian's studio released a big news about the casting of "Legendary Famous Person", and released the list of candidate actors, introductions, and audition videos in detail.Legendary Famous Dan character requirements.Let the public do the first round of scoring.Select the actors who think they are suitable to play, two of them will be selected from traffic stars, and two will be selected from Liyuan Danjiao, and the time will last for a week.

On the day of the voting deadline, a press conference was held, which was watched online simultaneously on the TV and webcast platforms. The votes were counted on the spot, and the expert judges scored according to the pre-established evaluation index system.

When the results came out, as expected, Le Feng's role as Mei Lanfang received the first votes, Lin Yu's role as Cheng Yanqiu received the second most votes, and the other two were famous Peking opera artists from Liyuan who played Xun Huisheng and monk Xiaoyun respectively.

"Shu Yue, Star Company's plan has failed." Xiao Ya's voice message.

"Well, they found so many sunspots to take revenge on Lin Yu, and they didn't want him to get this opportunity."

"Hey, it's Peter's fault too. I understand when it's time to repay the grievances. In the future, I don't want to act flirtatiously. You hurt me this time, and I'll hurt you next time." Xiao Ya sighed.

"The world is awake!" Shu Yue said.
