After the quantum reading, Lin Yuan reviewed the script of "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" provided by the system, and then his tears and snot came down together.
Lin Yuan is a person who doesn’t cry easily!
He is often moved to tears by the cheesy and sensational scenes in short videos.
certainly.
If that sentimental scene was already cliché enough, and the accompanying music was soulless, then even more sentimentality would have no effect on Lin Yuan—
His pickyness about music may outweigh his resistance to sentimentality.
"laugh-"
Lin Yuan wiped his nose and tears and began to write the script.
Normally this job is easy, you just need to copy the assignments given by the system.
But today Lin Yuan was tortured.
As Lin Yuan was writing, he felt his nose getting sore, his eyes getting slightly hot, and his throat seemed to be choked by something.
“I want to cry so much, but I can’t.”
Lin Yuan thought helplessly and completed the script that night.
Although this script is tear-jerking, it is much easier to shoot than "Life of Pi"!
If I have to say what is the most difficult part of the photo, it would probably be the dog's cooperation.
Movies require cooperation between humans and animals, but humans can be controlled but animals cannot.
But this does not pose a problem for Lin Yuan.
Because Lin Yuan has special props provided by the system.
One of the props is called "Best Actor Potion". Generally speaking, this prop is prepared for actors, and it will automatically generate a best actor-level performance based on the actor's appearance and style.
However, Lin Yuan read the introduction of the prop.
Dogs can also be used because dogs are also actors in the movie.
This was a note specially added by the system. Lin Yuan had noticed it before and it was not surprising because animal elements were actually unavoidable in many movies.
Some movies have cats in them, and some movies have dogs in them.
For example, there were cat scenes in the previous "The Piano Tuner", but because the scene was simple, it could be filmed with a little guidance.
Therefore, Lin Yuan was reluctant to use the Best Actor potion.
This time the dog, Hachiko, has a lot of scenes, so the Best Actor potion must be used, otherwise it will greatly delay the progress.
Isn’t the most difficult part of this play the cooperation between humans and dogs
Solving this problem, the filming of "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" was not difficult.
Then comes the second difficulty.
This movie "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" requires a male protagonist with superb acting skills and a certain literary accomplishment or scholarly temperament.
Hachiko is a dog, and the owner he met is a professor at a school...
Of course, a professor in a school should have this bookish air, look polite, and make people feel that he has a good appearance.
Lin Yuan doesn't choose according to the original version.
The aesthetics in all aspects are different.
Blue Planet has its own aesthetic, which is relatively traditional, gentle as jade, graceful and elegant, etc. It is difficult for foreigners to understand.
Fortunately, Lin Yuan can solve this difficulty by himself.
Because this time, Lin Yuan had a more suitable candidate for the male lead in his mind, and he didn't even need anyone's advice to decide on it.
He was an actor named Zhang Xiuming.
This person is the best actor of Starlight Entertainment and a real big shot.
Although Lin Yuan doesn't like to work with big names because their pay is too high.
But if a big name is absolutely necessary, Lin Yuan will not insist on using a non-big name actor.
Moreover, although the pay of big names took up a part of the salary, the pay was shared by the company and himself.
Lin Yuan plans to invest half with the company this time.
As for why Lin Yuan knew Zhang Xiuming...
Because the original owner liked Zhang Xiuming very much.
Zhang Xiuming could play the role of an emperor or a peddler.
He can be a kind and gentle good person? He can also be a sinister and vicious bad person.
What is the so-called "thousand faces" in acting? He did it very well.
If he had to say who he resembles, Lin Yuan felt that Zhang Xiuming was a bit like Zhang Jiayi from China.
Of course, we are not talking about appearance. Here we are only evaluating acting skills, temperament, style and other things. It is impossible for there to be actors from Earth on Blue Planet.
…
I didn’t look for Lao Zhou because the investment in this script wouldn’t be particularly large.
What if the lead actor's pay can be compressed? It can even be considered a small or medium-budget movie.
So Lin Yuan contacted Zhang Xiuming directly.
They are all in the same company. With Lin Yuan's status, it should be very easy to contact an artist within the company.
He just gave a few instructions to his assistant Gu Dong, and the script of "Hachiko: A Dog's Story" fell into Zhang Xiuming's hands.
"You mean, Teacher Xianyu wants to work with me..."
Zhang Xiuming looked up at his agent.
The agent smiled and said, "Yes, this script? He just asked his assistant to send it to me? He specifically asked you to be the male lead. You must refuse it. After all, you have already accepted the play written by screenwriter Long. But in order not to offend anyone? Let's take a look at it first."
Different from Liu Zhengwen.
As an actor of the best-selling film emperor level, Zhang Xiuming has no shortage of script invitations, so he has a lot of options.
And recently, Zhang Xiuming has taken on a role in a drama.
The screenwriter of that play is called Long Yang, who is considered a representative figure of the core screenwriter system. He is best at winning with scripts and is a screenwriter with a very high status in the industry.
Zhang Xiuming had worked with Long Yang before, so naturally he took on Long Yang's new play this time. Although the two sides have not yet signed a formal contract, they just roughly confirmed the situation.
"Let me take a look."
Zhang Xiuming spoke softly.
If he had only played Xianyu in "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One", he would basically not think much about it and would have rejected the offer.
It’s not because he disdains it or anything like that, but because he knows that kind of performance style is different from his own.
But he watched The Tuner some time ago.
This movie really surprised Zhang Xiuming.
So when Zhang Xiuming learned that Xianyu was looking for him for the new script, he was quite happy.
After all, he really likes "The Tuner", and being recognized by the screenwriter of this movie is certainly something to be happy about.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for him not to take a good look at the script titled "Hachiko: A Dog's Story".
Even if you don't answer it, there's nothing wrong in taking a look, right
Just because we can’t cooperate now doesn’t mean we can’t cooperate in the future.
This was what Zhang Xiuming saw when he opened the script.
He had already decided in his heart to take on the play written by Long Yang because he liked the script very much.
Yes.
Until Zhang Xiuming started to watch "Hachiko" formally, he was very determined to work with Teacher Long Yang.
Many things are always like this at the beginning.
People may feel that a certain choice they make will never change.
Just like Zhang Xiuming at this moment.
But things often turn out to be unexpected when people think nothing will change.
The unexpected name was "Zhen Xiang".
Half an hour later.
Zhang Xiuming's agent witnessed such an accident.
To be exact, it was not a surprise, but a shock.
Zhang Xiuming's agent was very shocked!
He saw Zhang Xiuming slowly stand up, burst into tears, and seemed to have broken down emotionally to some extent. He said these words firmly:
"I want to play the role of Envy Fish."
On Longyang's side
never mind.
The agent wisely kept his mouth shut.
He knew that when an actor was so moved by a script, it often meant that the actor had fallen.
