Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 801 Shooting is easy?
The online voting for the heroine of "Avatar" started with the audition stage.

The form of the audition is the nomination of netizens. Through the official website of William Entertainment, every netizen can register and vote through their mobile phone number, lrn account, and China's COCO number.

On the voting sub-page, netizens who have not voted see only a long bar similar to a search box after entering. The bottom line reads in English: Please enter the full name of the actress you support.

After entering, you will enter another page and see the current voting ranking status.

And actresses can conduct public canvassing on their social networking sites.

The final top [-] can enter the next stage.

The so-called top [-] will exclude two types of people, one is those who have not joined the Hollywood Film and Television Actors Union, because some may only be Internet celebrities, but they are famous on the Internet, and the other is the deceased, so there is no guarantee that some netizens will joke Or as a prank, type in some dead celebs.

Each stage after that requires votes from netizens, but compared to the sea election stage, the latter stage is centralized voting.

Only the top five selected in the end will be eligible to enter the group audition.

Of course, the choice is two-way. If the selected actor is unwilling to act in "Avatar", he will be replaced by the one who is ranked behind.

Many filmmakers in the industry are not optimistic about the method of casting this time, and some directors even directly posted that casting is also a comprehensive art, which requires multiple considerations, and the rights of casting directors cannot be handed over to netizens to act recklessly.

The Hollywood film industry has a mature and complete mechanism. Casting directors is a very important job, unlike domestic film crews, which actors are selected based on relationship, fame, and sponsorship.

The casting director makes the selection based on the list of Hollywood actors he has after carefully studying the script.

However, among actors with the same qualifications, fame, awards and capital will naturally become the second consideration.

But Li Zhifan's popular vote undoubtedly eliminated the position of casting director, especially since this movie was directed and acted by Li Zhifan himself, so many Hollywood filmmakers expressed their concern.

However, just when these people were worried, William Entertainment publicly released the news on social networking sites, and invited the well-known Hollywood casting director Jamie Winters to join in and supervise the online voting activities for the heroine of "Avatar". Also worked on the casting of other characters in "Avatar".

Subsequently, Jamie Wintles also confirmed the matter on his social software.

When the news was released, those Hollywood filmmakers who had been chattering before all shut up, and were speechless for a moment, and some even quickly deleted their own words.

With the escort of Jamie Wintles, many international first-tier Hollywood actresses publicly announced their desire to join "Avatar", and there are even more second-tier and below actresses.

In fact, the trend of the movie "Avatar" is the focus of the entire Hollywood.

One is because Li Zhifan, a popular Chinese star, has set off a trend and influence throughout the world, so we have to pay attention to it.

The second is that Oriental Entertainment's plans this time are all big investments. Even the Americans who are soaking in the money pool are surprised by the capital strength of Oriental Entertainment.

However, the above two points are actually not enough to pose a threat to the actual power holders in Hollywood.

The most important thing, and what is hidden behind all this, is whether Oriental Entertainment can rely on this so-called plan to achieve high box office results and become the eighth largest Hollywood giant.

The seven giants have controlled Hollywood for hundreds of years, and now a new capital is about to intervene, and it is capital from Dongfang Huaxia. How can this prevent the seven giants from worrying?
Moreover, Oriental Entertainment has put forward a five-year listing plan in its plan. Once Oriental Entertainment is listed on NASDAQ, the impact on the seven major companies will be very, very huge.

……

DreamWorks.

The production team of "Avatar" has already settled in, and the work of setting up the venue has also started.

Here it is planned to build a green screen shooting base of more than 1200 square meters, integrate all the technologies and strengths of the North American Division of Oriental Entertainment, and create the most advanced special effects team in Hollywood.

The small and medium-sized special effects teams that were acquired have also settled in one after another.

Although not all of them serve "Avatar", but shooting "Avatar" on such a basis can be said to be more effective with half the effort and extremely efficient.

For "Avatar", it seems that it cannot be called "crew", nor can it be called "startup".

These traditions in the conventional film circle are very inappropriate in "Avatar" now.

Li Zhifan likes to call them the team, and he will refer to them as the production team of "Avatar" to the outside world, just like making a game or a variety show, and there is no opening ceremony for this "production", the pre-production and production process It started almost at the same time, because there is no conflict with each other, maybe only after the actors are in place, can it be called "official start"!

All the photos and videos taken in Zhangjiajie before have been sorted and categorized. Mountain peaks are one category, cloud seas are one category, empty valleys are one category, and their wonderful and unique close-up views are another category.

These videos and photos will finally be synthesized into a fantastic outer space world. Although the synthesis process takes a lot of time and is very laborious, the technology is readily available.

China.

The news about "Avatar" is a bit slow, but this is only compared to North America. In this Internet age of information explosion, this kind of news spreads very fast, and the time difference is no more than an hour.

What domestic netizens are more concerned about is whether "Avatar" will invite domestic actors to play, especially the female lead, whether it is possible to be arranged.

But it was agreed that it was a popular vote, and William's official website voting page also reserved a COCO account registration port, so a large number of Chinese netizens poured in to vote for their favorite actresses.

At the beginning, the voting was scattered, resulting in no Chinese actress on the top [-] on the first page.

What's more, it will be even more difficult to enter the top fifty.

So domestic netizens launched a "unanimous vote" campaign on Kuaibo, calling on all viewers who voted on Weibo to vote for the same female star.

But this has encountered difficulties again, that is, who should vote for, and it seems that it is not suitable to vote for anyone.

Vote for young florets?Their strength is obviously not enough to star in a blockbuster hit Hollywood.

Vote for those who are strong?But their fans are indeed few, and many of them are much older. If they acted opposite Li Zhifan, the American people would not buy it.

As a result, the "unanimous vote" campaign ended before it started.

It is because the fans are their own masters and cannot unite as one.

Although the event on Kuaibo ended in embarrassment, it was successfully carried out on another social forum called "JRS Street", because "JRS Street" selects the forum's "street flower and street grass" every year , there are other honors such as JRS Four Beauties in Ancient Costumes, JRS Four Modern Men, JRS Queen of the Best Actresses, King of Best Actors, and King of Drama Kings.

The ones selected may not be the ones that all forum members liked at the beginning, but they are well-deserved, and to a large extent represent the wishes of netizens.

So the webmaster of "JRS Street" posted a public post, calling on everyone to vote for the actress Liang Wei who won the honor of "JRS Street Flower" this year.

Liang Wei was an actress in 88. She debuted very early, but became famous later, which honed her solid acting skills.

Although she is born in the 80s, her appearance and body conditions are not inferior to those born in the 90s and 00s.

These are the conditions for her to be honored as a street flower.

The webmaster said in his post that after voting for Liang Wei, he could use a screenshot of the vote to reply on the forum, and then the "JRS Street" administrator would give out certain experience and virtual rewards to those who voted.

"This represents the wishes of all our JRS street friends! Do something for our street flowers!"

This sentence is what I said, and it has become the slogan of all homeless people. Within a day, this sentence can be seen on almost every reply floor in every post.

Therefore, in William Entertainment's voting, "Liang Wei" suddenly emerged and directly entered the top 50, ranking 47th.

Among them are the behaviors of Liang Wei's own fans, coupled with the cooperative efforts of "JRS Street Friends", this result has been achieved.

And Liang Wei herself was very happy after knowing the direct incident. She and the brokerage company behind her also began to focus on this matter. Shui Jun spread the news on Kuaibo, and it is said that "Avatar" will only have one Chinese actress joining, and that is Liang Wei.

Sometimes the behavior of pig teammates can ruin the whole situation.

As soon as the news of the navy on Kuaibo spread, and netizens saw that Liang Wei had entered the top 50 single-handedly "representing" Chinese actresses, they immediately began to suspect that there was a PY deal, and the script had already been prepared in advance, and it was even pre-determined. Liang Wei and "JRS Street Friends" just cooperated in a scene, maybe they didn't know that they were cooperating, because it was possible that the stationmaster of "JRS Street" was bribed by Liang Wei's people.

The more rumors are spread, the more beneficial it is for Liang Wei's news popularity.

Even following the hot news this time, Liang Wei once again returned to the number one position among domestic popular actresses, taking advantage of the opportunity to accept several red bottle endorsement advertisements and announcements of popular variety shows.

foreign.

Li Zhifan has a clear grasp of this domestic incident.

Originally, it was his plan to invite domestic actors to participate in "Avatar". After all, it is a movie invested by Huaxia Capital. It is not enough for him to have a Chinese male leading role, and he has to add a few supporting roles. For netizens, as for the race and skin color of the final selection, he will not block it, it is up to the netizens to decide.

The premise has been said earlier, there is only one thing, and that is - she looks beautiful!
Fortunately, Li Zhifan has checked the photos and documents of the top [-], and there is not a single one who is not photogenic.

In this way, his preconditions will no longer exist, because no one will be eliminated by secret operations because of the issue of appearance.

However, Liang Wei's sudden appearance, coupled with domestic positive and negative news and momentum, made him have to reconsider some details, especially the issue of Liang Wei's brokerage company and navy, which made him very disgusted.

While he was thinking about these details, Jamie Winters found Li Zhifan, and he smiled when they met: "Li, a female star in China, seems to be very popular in your country? She has already entered the top [-] gone."

"China has a large population base and many netizens. It is normal for her to be voted on."

Li Zhifan still defended his own nation. If Liang Wei could really be selected and promoted, he would be very happy, but he didn't want those hype organizations in the country to ruin this matter.

"Oh no, I didn't doubt her data!"

Jamie Wintles thought that Li Zhifan was afraid that he would question the voting data, and immediately explained, "I'm just worried that she won't get this opportunity in the end, because our entry into the top [-] is conditional, and it must be a member of the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild." member, but this Liang Wei is not!"

"Oh?"

Li Zhifan was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes lit up, "OK, I got it!"

"You knew already?"

Seeing Li Zhifan suddenly take out his phone and start swiping the screen, Jamie Wintles couldn't help being curious and puzzled. He went up to take a look, but it was all in Chinese, so he shook his head helplessly and took his seat.

In fact, Li Zhifan just posted a quick blog, reiterating the conditions for finally being able to enter the top [-], not only being in the top [-] on the list, but also having the identity certification of the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild, this is working in Hollywood The only condition is that anyone who enters the United States to shoot film and television works needs to go to the Screen Actors Union for certification. The premise is that the crew must provide relevant certificates for them.

Now Liang Wei is not certified by the Screen Actors Union. If she wants to participate in "Avatar", she must find a Hollywood crew as soon as possible and get the certification of the Screen Actors Union.

Li Zhifan didn't say much on Kuaibo, but this behavior undoubtedly reminded domestic netizens, Liang Wei and her team that they now have to operate on this certification.

The voting activity was in full swing for three days, and at 11:59 p.m. New York time on the third day, the voting channel was closed on time and entered the final internal selection of the top [-].

In such a tight schedule, Liang Wei actually rushed to get the certification from the Hollywood Screen Actors Guild before the passage was closed, which is enough to show the supernatural powers behind her.

According to the rules, Liang Wei entered the top [-], but whether the final vote can continue to be successful depends on how many people around the world support her.

Also at the same time, Li Zhifan accepted an invitation from a domestic movie program to conduct an interview with "Avatar". Binding and moral binding, I hope the casting can be fair and just, in line with the free will of netizens."

Regarding the filming of "Avatar", Li Zhifan also gave a sentence: "The filming process will be very simple. Thanks to the progress of the film industry, this film is not so difficult to shoot."
