Become Famous Another Day

Liu Teli finally rejected the movie "Home Alone".

Although it was regrettable, Lu Yanhe was not too surprised.

When I first thought of looking for Liu Teli, it was really a sudden idea. In fact, if an actor like Liu Teli agrees to star in "Home Alone", it will be a surprising choice.

Lu Yanhe told Chen Yin and others about Liu Teli's decision.

Chen Yin posted a "sigh" emoticon.

But in less than a second, Chen Yin said again: What if we invite Teacher Jiang Jun to perform?

Lu Yanhe was stunned.

Jiang Jun?

Why haven’t you considered Teacher Jiang Jun before?

Whether it's "Seventeenth Floor", "Squid Game", or Mr. Xing in "Wulin Gaiden", Mr. Jiang Jun's character is always positive, full of experience, and has a certain charm of a mature man. role.

Therefore, finding him to star in "Home Alone" was something Lu Yanhe had never thought about before.

It's something that exists in Lu Yanhe's blind spot.

However, Chen Yin came out at this moment, which made Lu Yanhe feel that it was not a bad idea.

If he plays "Home Alone", it will be a surprise in the same way as Liu Teli. It will be a very big image subversion for the audience.

However, the question remains, will Jiang Jun come to play?

If Lu Yanhe invited him personally, he believed that Jiang Jun would definitely agree.

But what about Jiang Jun’s heart?

Lu Yanhe didn't know what Jiang Jun would think.

Liu Teli is an actor who has high requirements for himself, so why not Jiang Jun?

It is not easy to get to their level and position.

Unless absolutely necessary, Lu Yanhe doesn't want to use favors to force others to make a movie they don't want to make.

Lu Yanhe thought for a while and said to Chen Yin: Send the script to Teacher Jiang Jun and see what his opinion is, and don't mention me.

Chen Yin: Got it.

Chen Yin obviously knew what the last three words of Lu Yanhe meant.

-

The script Jiang Jun received was not signed by Lu Yanhe.

In addition, not much news about the script of "Home Alone" has leaked out. Jiang Jun did not know that this script was written by Lu Yanhe.

After reading this script, he actually liked it because it was very interesting and had a fairy tale-like comedy.

But the roles of these two stupid thieves were too labelled, which made him feel that there was no challenge.

Jiang Jun asked Chen Yin: "Do you have any other candidates for this role?"

Chen Yin understood the meaning of Lu Yanhe's words, so he said: "I am looking at other actors, but since you have cooperated a lot with our Linghe, I will give you the script first."

Jiang Jun said: "Actually, I quite like this script, but the role of this stupid thief is the same from the beginning to the end. It is basically just a show without much personality. I am worried that if I play such a role, the audience will I don’t necessarily buy it.”

When Chen Yin heard what Jiang Jun said, he roughly knew what he meant.

Chen Yin smiled helplessly.

It’s true, in terms of the script alone, although this script is good and everyone can see it, the first protagonist is a child, and the two stupid thieves have such distinct characteristics, like the kind that only happens in fairy tales. The final villain is really not very attractive to actors like Liu Teli and Jiang Jun who are already famous and pursue performances.

Chen Yin also told Lu Yanhe Jiang Jun's feedback.

Lu Yanhe: "Sure enough, the appeal of this script is actually not that great."

"It's mainly about the subject matter." Chen Yin didn't want Lu Yanhe to think that his script was not that good. "Both of them are good actors and know how to read scripts. Their feedback said that the script is good, but they also know that this script is not that good." The core of the movie is not the two stupid thieves, but the children, so the appeal of the movie is bound to be much smaller.”

"Oh, yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "If there is really no other way, then I will have to do the filming myself."

Chen Yin: "If you are willing to come and shoot, that is the best choice."

"Believe me, if it were made by young people of my age, the age gap collision between the old and the young in the movie would be much smaller." Lu Yanhe said, "The collision between a big kid and a big fool must be It just takes that kind of age difference.”

Chen Yin: "If it doesn't work, then we can only bite the bullet and use less famous actors and take a gamble. Even if there are no stars, the movie will still have a good box office."

Lu Yanhe: "The best solution is to find an actor like Liu Teli and Jiang Jun who can act and can carry the box office. The second solution is to change the character design and let me and another person act. The last solution is to abandon the star cast. Give up the big schedule and go the low-cost dark horse route.”

Chen Yin: "It must be decided as soon as possible. Filming will start in January next year."

"Try to look for it again." Lu Yanhe said, "The latest deadline is December. If you still don't find it in December, then I will act."

Chen Yin: "Okay."

People who are engaged in the film and television industry have a common sentiment: there are many difficulties, but they are not as difficult as those related to actors.

Starting from hiring actors is a big problem. The better actors are, the harder it is to hire them. Lu Yanhe has nothing to say, because he himself is also a member of this group, and he is one of the most difficult actors to hire.

Every year, a large number of scripts are sent to him, Chen Ziyan, and even directly to Chen Siqi.

Looking back, there are actually very few domestic films he has acted in that have nothing to do with himself or Linghe.

There are only three movies that he has starred in, namely "Late Spring", "Path of Glory" and "Burning".

Judging from the amount of roles he took, the proportion was actually very small. Precisely because he knew that as an actor he had to consider too many factors when making decisions, Lu Yanhe was actually quite able to accept it from the bottom of his heart when Liu Teli and Jiang Jun rejected the film "Home Alone."

However, after Jiang Jun found out that the script was written by Lu Yanhe, he immediately found it again and told Chen Yin that he would set aside his schedule if necessary.

Chen Yinlai asked Lu Yanhe how to reply to Jiang Jun.

Lu Yanhe said: "Forget it, Teacher Jiang Jun has already rejected it before, which means he doesn't really want to act."

After Chen Yin told Jiang Jun, Jiang Jun called Lu Yanhe again.

Lu Yanhe explained why he wrote this script and his thoughts on the two stupid thieves.

"It is true that the role does not have to be played by any actor. If different actors play it, some adjustments will be made to the role, but it must be played by an actor who has the urge to perform, and the effect will be better." Lu Yanhe said, "This film Movies, in my opinion, have to be about real actors "The movie can only be effective if you have fun acting in it." Jiang Jun: "This script is really beautiful. One by one, various pranks are turned into ways to deal with stupid thieves. It makes me happy." I thought about this when I was a kid. ”

Lu Yanhe said: "However, Mr. Jiang, if you are free later, I would like to ask you to come in for one or two scenes. We still want to push this movie to a more popular schedule and need some starlight."

Jiang Jun immediately agreed.

"no problem."

"Home Alone" is completely a family movie, and it can be released in any time. Of course, the best time is the Spring Festival.

It’s just that it’s too difficult to squeeze in during the Spring Festival period, so they may not be able to get tickets.

At the end of October, Yan Liang finished filming "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and joined the cast of "Dragon Inn" almost seamlessly.

As a result, because he tanned a lot in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", the makeup artist started applying makeup on him as soon as he entered the set. In the end, the look he got was really "father-in-law" at a glance.

Lu Yanhe went to visit after get off work, and when he saw Yan Liang's appearance, he couldn't help laughing on the spot.

In fact, Yan Liang himself has a rather heroic appearance, but the whitening of his eyebrows makes him look a bit more feminine.

At first glance, he looks a bit like the version of Donnie Yen that Lu Yanhe watched.

There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

Liu Bige is also really awesome.

He built a real-life Dragon Gate Inn in the desert and shot the movie in real-life scenes.

As soon as Lu Yanhe entered, he couldn't help but take a lot of photos.

"This scene is really well done."

Liu Bige: "It cost a lot of money, but Long Yan was very generous this time."

"You have made so much money with "Late Spring" and "Fake Death". If they are not more generous to you, they will not be the leading film company in the industry." Lu Yanhe said, "Moreover, regardless of whether this movie Whether it’s the subject matter or the cast, it’s all aimed at a box office of over 500 million.”

"Yeah." Liu Bige nodded, "But filming martial arts movies is really hard. How about you come and help me shoot for a few days and let me have a good sleep?"

"Please let me go. I finally got some rest. I'm here to visit the team, and you want me to help you with your work? Just be a human being." Lu Yanhe said scornfully, "Are you under any pressure to rush the work?"

"That's not the case, there is still plenty of shooting time." Liu Bige said, "When we were looking at the actors' schedules, we said that the shooting time for this movie might not be short."

-

The cast of "Dragon Inn" can be said to be the strongest cast in Chinese-language films.

Shang Yongzhou plays Zhou Huai'an, Chen Bige plays Qiu Moyan, Liu Zi plays Jin Xiangyu, "Nine Yin" actor Zhou Yuning plays Cao Shaoqin, Yan Liang plays Lu Xiaochuan, and a number of powerful actors play other roles...

Coupled with the creative lineup of director Liu Bige and screenwriter Lu Yanhe, this film has been regarded by Longyan Pictures as one of the top film projects next year.

This film must be sent to film festivals.

Although you may not be able to enter the main competition unit.

Among all the actors, Liu Zi was the one who suffered the most.

Shopkeeper Tong, who shined in "Wulin Gaiden" and became famous overnight, was spotted by Liu Bige and invited to play the role of Jin Xiangyu.

Not only did she lose more than ten kilograms, but she also had to learn martial arts moves to become a mature, charming and fierce boss lady.

When Lu Yanhe saw her this time, he felt like her whole body had been drained of water. If she was still a somewhat effeminate boss lady in "Wulin Gaiden" before, she is indeed a lot less charming now. The feeling of a woman is a bit more cunning and mature, and her posture always gives people a feeling of being at ease.

Lu Yanhe especially hopes that "Dragon Inn" can be filmed well -

This is one of the most classic martial arts movies in his mind. Even though it has not won any heavyweight awards, it has an indelible memory.

Liu Bige's treatment of "Dragon Inn" has a more textured look.

He said: "The story itself is already very exciting. I don't want to use long shots. In this movie, I hope that every scene is fast, with a rhythm of swords and swords, and less of the long shots in "Late Spring" , slow motion.”

Lu Yanhe understood what Liu Bige meant.

"In fact, this movie itself is not suitable for long shots. In many scenes, there are many characters in the same scene and there are many dialogues. Using long shots cannot show so many perspectives and different reactions of everyone."

Lu Yanhe actually likes the martial arts genre because in this genre, everyone's personality traits and emotional points can be magnified to the extreme without being considered unrealistic by the audience.

In everyone's mind, the rivers and lakes are all about grudges and grudges, and the people in the rivers and lakes also have their own distinctive characteristics.

Lu Yanhe doesn't know how the movie "Dragon Inn" will be viewed in Europe and the United States, but he knows very well that as long as this movie is well publicized and marketed in the Asian market, it will definitely do well at the box office.

Provided it’s shot well.

After Yan Liang joined the group, he followed a movement guide to practice every day.

But actually he didn't have many action scenes in this movie.

But Yan Liang seemed to have a great time learning.

Ever since he was filming "Legend of Sword and Fairy", he has liked filming action scenes.

Because it's cool, and it's what he's good at.

Zhou Yuning, the popular actor in "Nine Yin", also takes good care of Yan Liang and often tries tricks with him -

This is not a trick the two of them did in the movie, it was just something they did for fun.

Lu Yanhe and Zhou Yuning had the opportunity to chat after dinner.

After Zhou Yuning was so successful in "Nine Yin" and won the Best Actor himself, he was still willing to play a villain in this movie. Firstly, the production standards of this movie are high enough, and secondly, he has his own pursuits. .

Zhou Yuning said: "I never thought about taking on another martial arts movie so soon, because "Nine Yin" is about to make a second part, and I don't want to make another martial arts movie to compete with it. However, I like this script very much. If It is said that "Nine Yin" is a big river and lake, and "Longmen Inn" is a small river and lake. I like it the most What’s fun is that people from all walks of life gather in one place, each with their own agenda, and then a war is about to break out. I like this in the script. From beginning to end, the movie takes place in this inn, without leaving. This kind of small-scale confrontation, I've never seen that in another martial arts movie script."

Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "Thank you for being willing to act."

Zhou Yuning: "Can you make me a positive male protagonist in the future?"

He seemed to be joking and teasing, but in fact he was also sincere. (End of chapter)
