Living on the street, the real daughter became popular by relying on dog blood drama

Chapter 166 Film Preparation

Whether the first work of Sunshine Film and Television is to make a movie or a TV series, Shang Lu is a little confused.

Logically speaking, she should choose to make a TV series.

But she said before that she wanted to make a movie.

Making a movie requires more resources than making a TV series, and there are more ways to go about it.

Anyway, Hou Wen'an was here, he knew a lot, Shang Lu simply asked his opinion.

"For movies, I have some resources here, but what kind of subject do you want to make? Commercial films? Literary films? Or other types?"

"It's a low-budget comedy with a little detective element. If possible, I would like to make it into a series."

This was considered by Shang Lu before. The production cost of "Less Detective Series" is not particularly high. The most difficult thing may be to find suitable actors.

Especially for the jokes in movies, you must choose carefully. When you should be funny, you should be funny, and when you should be serious, it is very difficult for actors.

The two discussed for a long time, Shang Lu introduced the character design of the protagonist, and then asked Hou Wen'an to help choose the candidate.

"There are two male protagonists in this movie, one is funny, and the other is responsible for solving crimes. It is best to have a strong contrast effect, such as one tall and one short, one handsome and one ugly."

"When it comes to casting, I want to decide on the role of Tang Ren first. He determines the upper limit of the movie."

Hou Wen'an carefully thought about the actors he had come into contact with, "Actors who can act well in comedies now, to be honest, don't worry about making movies. Comedy has always been a big category, and it is also the audience's favorite. Give me some time, I'll look for it again."

Shang Lu nodded to show her understanding, "You can also look for sketch actors or drama actors, you don't have to choose first-line actors. After all, the budget is not much, and the actors' remuneration should be controlled."

After this meeting, Shang Lu had a good impression of Hou Wen'an.

The other party was very quick to do things, such as registering a company, renting a house, etc., were done within a few days.

What surprised Shang Lu the most was that Hou Wen'an dug a professional team from nowhere, all of them were old people who had worked in the industry for more than ten years.

So much so that when Shang Lu came to the company for the first time, she was taken aback by these people.

"Brother Hou, your efficiency is quite high, why did you recruit so many people?"

As a new company, you need to do everything yourself.

These few days, Hou Wen'an almost lived in the company and took care of it all by himself.

Now he is wearing casual clothes, and there are beads of sweat on his face.

He has just purchased a batch of desks and office supplies and has been busy for a long time.

"Oh, some of these are my old colleagues, some of them have worked together, thanks to everyone's trust in me. By the way, there are also a few girls who came here for your name. I think they like you very much, probably Your fans."

Shang Lu looked in the direction he pointed, and found that there were indeed several girls sitting there busy.

From time to time, I still looked at this side, and found that I was also looking at them. A few of them covered their mouths and smiled embarrassedly, and one of them blushed.

Shang Lu smiled and nodded at them, and then said to Hou Wen'an.

"If I'm done with work today, I'll treat everyone to a meal, just to get acquainted."

how to say?

In the past at Huasheng Video, Shang Lu never had the idea of ​​building relationships with the employees there.
After all, although Shang Lu also has shares, in her heart, it is not her own place.

But Sunshine Film and Television is different. When she sees the establishment of this company, she has a different feeling in her heart.

"Okay, then I will let them get off work earlier, and we will go there earlier, so as not to delay their return home."

To a certain extent, Hou Wen'an is a relatively good boss.

But Shang Lu came to see him today, not just for dinner.

When the two came to the office, Hou Wen'an took out a stack of documents.

"The actors you asked me to find before, I chose a few, you can take a look."

These materials were collected by his assistant for him, and they can be found on the Internet.

There are also some information that only people in the industry know.

For example, whether the actor is famous or not, whether he is respectful or not, the outsiders don't know, but the insiders can't hide it.

Shang Lu looked at the information and found that they were basically actors between their thirties and forties.

"I forgot to tell you before, there will be some action scenes in the movie, and the actors should have some martial arts skills."

How could she have forgotten the most important point?
Hou Wen'an was stunned for a moment, "You know martial arts, it's not there, but I know someone who knows martial arts, and he has never made a comedy film before, and his films are basically war scenes."

He turned on his mobile phone and showed Shang Lu his photo.

"Jiang Junpeng, 33 years old this year, was born as an extra. He has learned martial arts for ten years before. He has filmed many action movies and war movies. His acting skills are not bad. I have worked with him once. He is very nice and has a calm personality."

Shang Lu looked at his profile carefully, and found that this Jiang Junpeng was not outstanding in appearance, even a bit ordinary, probably because he was born in martial arts, and he was not tall, only 1.7 meters.

The key is his appearance, the kind that looks simple and honest, but when he smiles, he is even more simple and honest.

"Has this Jiang Junpeng never played a funny role before?"

When Shang Lu saw this face, he always felt a little familiar.

Hou Wen'an shook his head, "As far as I know, he has never been filmed before. Although he has never studied acting, his acting skills are really good, but he has never met a role that suits him. Fame is not counted. He is barely a fourth-tier actor. Bar."

The so-called fourth-line actors are actors who have played many supporting roles, and the audience looks familiar, but few people can call out his name.

Shang Lu looked at the others again, after looking around, she still found Jiang Junpeng more pleasing to the eye.

"The character in the movie is annoying. It's best to find someone who is popular with the audience. Jiang Junpeng has a good appearance and is honest at first glance. Even if he is glib in the movie, the audience won't be too annoying."

It's just that it also depends on the acting skills of the actors.

People with poor acting skills will make themselves "disfigured" in movies.

In the final analysis, actors still have to rely on their acting skills to establish their capital. If they have no appearance, they will only be soulless vases and will be eliminated sooner or later.

Hou Wen'an nodded, "Why don't I contact him sometime and ask him to come over for an audition. Let's have a look when the time comes. Don't rush to make a decision now."

"That's fine. If there is another leading role, I already have someone to choose, and the next one will be some supporting roles. But because this movie is a series, some supporting actors may be the protagonists in another movie. Let me see, when the time comes I will Send you a short biography of the character, and then choose an actor."

"Of course, you can decide the actor in the end. I'm just giving you a personal choice."
