"The boss only asked me to take one version."
"General Manager Li from Five Star Video will help with this."
Yue Guan pulled out Li Fuzhen's banner.
Zhang Jizhong believed it immediately.
He knew Li Fuzhen's energy.
In modern society, the status of the children of the royal family is the same. At Zhang Jizhong's level, he can already ignore the royal collaterals like Li Ruotong and Li Suggestion.
But Li Fu really can ignore his level.
Although the title of Princess Li Fuzhen is not a real princess, her status as the first heir of the One Star Group makes her more prominent than a real princess.
"It shouldn't be a big problem if Mr. Li comes forward." Zhang Jizhong nodded: "I want to ask for the opinion from above. I can't give you an answer yet, but there should be no problem."
As long as it doesn't affect the satellite TV version and expands the influence of martial arts, plus Li Fuzhen is looking for someone to smooth things over, there's no reason why the higher-ups will refuse.
The question is simply whether it can be photographed well.
"Yue Guan, do you have any suggestions for the cast?" Zhang Jizhong asked the original author for his opinion: "If you have an actor you particularly like, just say it. Your opinion must be considered by the crew."
When such a work with huge original influence is made into a film or television drama, the first thing to do is to get recognition from the original author.
When Jin Yong's drama was being remade in his previous life, Zhang Jizhong would go to Xiangcheng to visit Jin Yong.
Being recognized by Jin Yong is equivalent to passing the quality inspection standards.
In this regard, Zhang Jizhong's moral integrity is much stronger than that of Yu Ma.
Now that the original author has been replaced by Yue Guan, Zhang Jizhong still respects Yue Guan's ideas and has no intention of looking down on Yue Guan because of his young age.
Yue Guan thought for a while and said: "It's best for actresses to choose those who are beautiful and popular."
Zhang Jizhong: “…”
Yue Guan explained: "Director Zhang, don't get me wrong, I'm not doing this for anything, I'm doing this for publicity."
"I also want to find popular female stars as much as possible, but they all want to play the role of Little Dragon Girl, not supporting roles." Zhang Jizhong shook his head helplessly: "It is an unwritten convention in the industry that the king will not see the king, unless we find a great actress to play the role of Little Dragon Girl. , otherwise, Xiao Hua Dan with the same status will not play a supporting role for Hua Dan of the same level. By the way, Xiao Longnu, who do you prefer?"
I prefer Li Ruotong.
But she definitely won't act.
Yue Guan glanced at Zhang Jizhong and did not nominate him: "Director Zhang, do you have a favorite candidate?"
"How is Liu Yifei?"
Yue Guan raised his eyebrows: "She is a movie star now. She won't lower herself to act in a TV series, right?"
"She will definitely not be able to act in ordinary TV series, but "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is not an ordinary TV series. This is a filming designated by the above, and CCTV will buy it at a high price as long as the project is approved. As the heroine of Xiao Longnu, she will not affect the popularity of the TV series. bit. Besides, after she enters the film industry, she will act in one movie after another, so what’s the use of being a movie star?"
At the end of Zhang Jizhong's words, he was very disdainful, not directed at Liu Yifei, but at the movie star.
He is a great director in the field of TV dramas, but in the entertainment industry, the status of a great TV drama director is far behind that of a great film director.
Many big-name actors have stated that they will not accept TV series.
With his fame and status, he would be rejected even if he was looking for actors to film, which made him very angry.
"Do you have a relationship with Liu Yifei?" Yue Guan asked curiously.
There are so many actresses in the entertainment industry, why is the bearded man so optimistic about Liu Yifei
Zhang Jizhong didn't hide anything: "I've worked with her before. She's a nice girl. Although her acting skills are average, she has a good attitude, and she's very good at showing off. She's been trained specially and has a foundation in martial arts. In today's entertainment industry, female stars are willing to be photographed There aren’t many action scenes, and even fewer can be filmed well.”
Yue Guan nodded.
Not to mention female stars, there are fewer and fewer male stars who can make good action movies.
If there is an opportunity to make a lot of money without suffering, who would be willing to endure that hardship
"Her family also contacted me and said that she was interested in playing the role of Little Dragon Girl. I thought about it. In terms of temperament and beauty, Liu Yifei should be considered the best in the entertainment industry."
"Of course, Xiao Longnu must find a top beauty to star, otherwise the role will be ruined."
Think Xiao Long Bao version of Little Dragon Girl…
Chen Yanxi originally had a nice girl-next-door image, but she was ridiculed by the entire Internet, almost ruining her entire stardom.
Some roles don't demand much from actors.
But for a role like Xiao Longnu, a female star who is not extremely beautiful really cannot accept the role. If she does, the end will be very tragic.
Liu Yifei doesn't need to worry about this problem. Apart from other things, just for looks, if a female star in the entertainment industry can say that she is prettier than her, she can only prove it freely.
After so many years since his debut, Tianxian's acting skills can be said to be very stable. If it weren't for his good looks, Tianxian's "brilliant" record of filming one movie after another would not be able to last until now.
Denying her looks is tantamount to praising her acting skills.
It's so unobjective.
As for acting
Yue Guan glanced at Zhang Jizhong and said to himself that it would be fine if his acting skills were not outstanding.
The acting skills of a fairy are enough to fool people in TV series.
And what acting skills are required for the role of Xiao Longnu
Just look good.
"Let her try acting. There's no big problem, just her." Yue Guan had no objection.
"If Liu Yifei plays the role of Little Dragon Girl, actresses such as Guo Xiang, Li Mochou, Gongsun Lv'e, and Guo Fu must also be carefully selected. Their appearance cannot be too different from Liu Yifei's."
Otherwise, the webcast version of Yang Guo would still have a harem.
Zhang Jizhong was in a dilemma: "Where can I find so many beautiful female stars who are willing to play supporting roles?"
Yue Guan thought for a moment: "How do you feel about having Tang Yan play Li Mochou?"
Zhang Jizhong was shocked: "With Tang Yan's current popularity, how can it be possible for him to play a supporting role?"
"In the future, our company will start a separate movie project for Li Mochou. Only after we have picked up the TV series version of Li Mochou can we make the movie version. In the movie version, Li Mochou will be the absolute protagonist."
Zhang Jizhong's eyes lit up: "In this case, we can talk."
"But this requires certain support from the original cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes."
Zhang Jizhong waved his hand: "As long as Tang Yan is willing to join the TV series version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to play Li Mochou, I will handle the rest."
Tang Yan is now more popular than Liu Yifei.
That is to say, the temperament does not match, otherwise Zhang Jizhong would have asked her to play the role of Xiao Longnu.
Now that he saw the opportunity for Tang Yan to join the crew, Zhang Jizhong didn't care about anything else and just agreed.
Yue Guan smiled: "If this model works, the crew can invite Yang Mi to play the role of Guo Xiang, and our company will also develop a separate film and television project for Guo Xiang."
Li Mochou and Guo Xiang are both very popular, and the story lines can be taken out independently.
Yue Guan's proposal completely opened up Zhang Jizhong's thinking.
He expanded: "If Liu Yifei, Tang Yan and Yang Mi are willing to join the cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", then other popular actresses can be brought in according to this operation, so that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" It’s impossible to throw yourself into the street.”
