China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

Chapter 431 The dead are like husbands, never giving up day and night [12]

When Gao Fei and Liu Yifei were busy filming "To Our Dying Youth", the crew of "July and Ansheng" were not idle either.

After Zhao Liying thought it over and over again, she finally chose to play Lin Qiyue, who is quiet, well-behaved and law-abiding.

Because this kind of Xiaojiabiyu's role is indeed in line with her own characteristics.

As for Li Ansheng, who is unrestrained and likes to challenge authority, after some public auditions, Chen Kexin finally chose Zhou Dongyu.

Although Gao Fei was a little disappointed by this, he didn't say much.

Even from a personal point of view, he hoped that Mao Xiaotong could play Lin Qiyue, but Gao Fei finally chose to respect the director's choice.

After all, "July and Ansheng" is still a literary film, and the criteria for casting are not as loose as commercial films.

Even sometimes literary and artistic films depend almost entirely on the performance of the actors, otherwise those powerful actors in the early days would not like to make art films so much.

Of course, although Chen Kexin didn't like Mao Xiaotong, there were still a lot of him, so for other insignificant roles, he still preferred to choose artists under Zhou Yi's banner.

For example, the scumbag Su Jiaming who has excellent grades but has an indecisive personality who has been hovering between An Sheng and Qiyue, Chen Kexin let Li Xian play.

Don't look at Su Jiaming as the male lead on the surface, but in fact his character arc in this film is completely incomparable with the two heroines.

Even to a certain extent, in the script "July and Ansheng", Su Jiaming is actually a tool to help Qiyue and Ansheng grow up.

When July and An Sheng gradually mature, Su Jiaming's sense of presence will become weaker and weaker, so the role of Su Jiaming is actually quite tasteless.

Although it is called the leading actor, it is actually a green leaf.

A green leaf specially used to set off the two heroines.

So it was quite an embarrassing situation when choosing an actor for this role.

Those who look like they have no strength, but those who have strength don't like it.

Therefore, it cannot be regarded as the reason why Li Xian was able to rise to the position.

At least not quite!

You must know that after the "Soul Ferry" trilogy was broadcast, Li's current online fame and popularity are not at all lower than those third-tier stars.

If it wasn't for Gu Li Nazha who was favored by Mr. Xu by accident and was able to star in "Di Renjie: Dragon King", Li Xian might be the rookie king of the entertainment industry this year.

Right now, even his classmates Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan looked enviously at Li Xian.

But Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan are really having a hard time these days.

Not to mention the sudden emergence of Li Xian in the same class, there are also novice leaders like Zhou Dongyu and Guli Nazha among the freshman girls.

Tsk tsk~ The two of them have been in the entertainment industry since they were young, otherwise, if they change to a newcomer, their mentality may collapse.

Of course, although the mentality of these two people did not collapse, they actually regretted their admission to Beijing Film Academy. After all, Chinese opera is also quite good.

I knew why they came to Beiying to suffer this crime today!

For a while, Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan, who were accidentally injured, almost wanted to drop out of school.

……

Just as the filming of "July and Ansheng" was in full swing, the crew of "To Youth" began to move to Li County.

Because the film is different from the original novel, after discussing with Zhou Yi's screenwriter team, Yu Feihong moved the background of the original novel forward by ten years, which means that the story happened around 1995.

With such a change, many scenes would naturally not be able to be shot in big cities.

There is no way, the major cities in China have developed too fast these years, almost every year.

In the end, the scene selection team took a lot of effort to find a suitable place.

To be honest, if Yu Feihong hadn't come to Li County in person, she wouldn't have believed that such a county-level city still exists in China.

Time seems to have stopped here, everything is as it was 18 years ago, full of the atmosphere of the 90s.

Of course, this is a surprise for the crew, but it may not be a good thing for the local people.

After all, in this ever-changing era, it is the greatest sin to remain the same.

It's just that Gao Fei is a businessman, because after a few words of emotion, he can only ask the crew to take more care when hiring people locally.

But then again, college life in the 90s is naturally different from what it is now.

In that era without mobile phones, restless college students didn't have much fun to enjoy, except for love, that is, chasing stars
And in that era, the Four Heavenly Kings were still in their prime.

On the front foot, Zhang Xueyou became popular all over the country with the song "Kiss Goodbye", and on the back foot, Andy Hua released three records in a row. "Water of Forgetfulness" has also become a must-sing song for many male students after falling in love.

But in those days, even the Four Heavenly Kings couldn't dominate the headlines forever.

Because that year, even if the Chinese music scene wasn't fighting with gods, it wasn't too far away.

For example, Zhou Huajian's "Swords Are Like a Dream" and Faye Wong's "I Do" came out in 1994.

In addition, President Tan's "Can't Say Goodbye", Zhang Xinzhe's "Don't Be Afraid of My Sadness", Qi Qin's "Ruthless Rain, Ruthless You", Wu Bai's "Love Song of the Ronin", and Xin Xiaoqi's "Comprehension" are all from This year.

And the mainland music scene also began to explode collectively this year.

"Waiting for You 1 Years" by Yang Yuying, "Xiaofang" by Li Chunbo, "The One Who Cares About You Is Me" by Gao Linsheng, "A Lian" by Dai Jun, "Chinese Folk Songs" by Sun Hao, "Wishing You the Best" by Sun Yue You are safe" and so on.

These songs are almost all the hits that caused a national sensation in those years, and they are called the new generation of 94.

It is also this group of people who set off the first climax of original pop music in the mainland music scene. Since the beginning of mainland pop music, there have been many excellent works.

So each era actually has its own popular style.

Sometimes whether a song is popular or not has nothing to do with the quality of the work, but only with the times.

Don't look at Jay Chou's popularity in the Chinese music scene now, but if his songs are released in the 90s, there is a high probability that they will hit the street.

Because the style is too avant-garde, the audience at that time may not like it.

It is precisely for this reason that the crew also specially bought the right to use many classic old songs.

Even though the domestic film and television industry has never paid much attention to the copyright of songs, Gao Fei still spent money to obtain the authorization.

As the saying goes: save a little money, make a big deal.

Gao Fei didn't want to wait until the eve of Zhouyi's listing, and was sued in court because of the copyright of the song.

Even if he settles the lawsuit by then, I'm afraid the company's stock price will be greatly affected.
