Chapter 421
Two days later, Xiangjiang Mingpao Newspaper.
"Mr. Cha, do you feel satisfied with the makeup and character design of these characters? If anyone can play Xiaolongnu, you can say that, and we will definitely respect the original work."
In order to get the original work approval, Gu Ao personally went on a trip and gave it to Mr. Cha for review with a lot of photos and text resumes.
Photos of mainland actresses were sent to the Special Administrative Region yesterday. Han Ting called her a peddler who drove to Xiangjiang. She also brought several sets of Xiaolongnu's clothes in the play, which were auditioned for Li Ruotong.
Li Ruotong's parotid surgery has not been performed yet, so it is not that fast. However, as long as the inflammation is eliminated first, the cheeks will no longer be swollen, and you can take a photo of Xiaolongnu with light makeup.
The medical level of the Yanghe Hospital is so high, it is still easy to quickly eliminate inflammation. So Li Ruotong's photos can only appear in this pile today.
Mr. Cha first looked at the photos of Zhang Min, who is the most beautiful, but it is not that Zhang Min will always be more beautiful than Li Ruotong and Yu Feihong in the future, but that she now has the advantage of age. She is 16 years old and has a gradually growing figure, which is very charming.
He looked over and over again for a long time, pondering and regretting. Not only did he see Zhang Min's appearance on Xiaolongnu, but he also watched all the other supporting actresses in the play who "won't miss her life after seeing Yang Guo" in the play.
"Is that the only one? She looks pretty good, she just has a few traces of demonic aura, which is a pity. None of these characters are suitable for her."
This evaluation is very experienced, which shows that Mr. Cha's vision is really a sight to see countless girls.
The characters played by Zhang Min in later generations are almost all outstanding ones.
Whether it is the movie version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Smiling Proud", or "The Deer and the Cauldron", the original work directly includes "real witches" such as Zhao Min, Ren Yingying, and the fake queen mother, who can be used directly. Or, like "Su Qier", a character character of "The White Lotus Sect's Witch Rushuang" to match her image and temperament.
Gu Ao was sent to accompany him to accompany him, and he didn't expect it to be useful. When Mr. Cha was dissatisfied, he immediately followed the good words: "If it is not suitable, I promise not to use it, so don't worry. Let's see the next one first."
Mr. Cha raised his hand to stop him: "Then you don't have to let her try to pretend to Li Mochou?"
Fortunately, Gu Ao didn't drink tea, otherwise he might have spit out a sip of tea.
When he tried out the costume, he tried all the fantasy female supporting actors who "won't see Yang Guo for life" and never thought about Li Mochou. After all, this character is too old and very complicated, and it has nothing to do with these little girls.
"Mr. Cha, this little girl is only 16 years old. Are you sure that even Li Mochou wants to try?" Gu Ao looked disbelief.
Mr. Cha: "From the resume, she has some acting experiences and is rare. Such a confusing woman is rare. Age is not a problem. She wears a Taoist robe and lets her try it and see it for me again."
"Then I'll let her make up for it again," Gu Ao agreed casually.
The leader moved his mouth and his subordinates broke his legs. Zhang Min might have just returned to Hujiang and had to go to Qiantang for an audition.
However, if you have the opportunity to make money and become famous, mainland high school students in 1983 have worked tirelessly.
Mr. Cha continued to look down, and when he saw Li Ruotong's appearance, he was indeed amazed. He just looked at Yu Feihong for a moment out of politeness and immediately made a decision:
"Just let this older girl play Xiaolongnu. Her Xiaolongnu looks very fairy-like. In addition, that young girl looks very thoughtful, so Cheng Ying or Guo Xiang can arrange one casually. After all, an actor who is so young is rarely so smart."
When Mr. Cha said this, he was actually complaining in his heart that he had filmed "The God of Condor Heroes" in his previous films, and did not choose to restore the novel plots, simplifying and cutting off many plots that are difficult to express and substitute in TV series. For example, when the novel was originally in the beginning, when Yang Guo, Lu Wushuang, and Cheng Ying were all young, Li Mochou went to the Lu family to seek revenge. He did not act in previous TV series.
This time, when he saw such a young but talented actor, Mr. Cha naturally fantasized about how he could make up for his regret.
Of course, TV series must have the rhythm of TV series. Kim's martial arts novels have the rhythmic flaws, and there is no way to do so, for example, novels like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are copied according to the original work. They will definitely make people think that "the original protagonist is Zhang Sanfeng", and then think that "the protagonist is He Zudao", and then "the protagonist is Zhang Cuishan". Until the first volume is finished, no one can tell that the protagonist is Zhang Wuji.
Similarly, if someone who reads the novel "Swordsman" first, he will definitely think that the protagonist is Lin Pingzhi, who has a family secret book and is also carrying a deep hatred for blood. It is simply in line with the protagonist's template. Who would have believed that the protagonist is Linghu Chong's crazy one.
Novels are all in the rhythm of the 1950s and 1960s, while TV was already shot in the 1970s and 1980s. At the rhythm of twenty years ago, it will inevitably fail.
With the progress of the times, the audience's patience with popular works seeking pleasure will definitely become worse and worse. Any so-called popular consumption classics must be discussed in the context of the times before they are meaningful, and adaptations must also keep pace with the times in terms of rhythm.
However, some of the problems are not well grasped and they are too catered to the "Aesthetics of the times". For example, last year's "Tianlong" will anger the original work and give Gu Ao the opportunity to intermediary.
You can only add more water and more water to the surface, and slowly grasp the scale.
"That's it, Mr. Cha, please sign this opinion letter. I will bring it to Sir Shao tonight."
After everything was finalized, Gu Ao took out a casting opinion. He had been busy for such a long time, with the purpose of using the original work to exert pressure from Sir Shao, so that they could accept the situation and support the takeoff period of "Lanting Cinema".
These dramas are destined to be popular in the mainland in the future. In this way, Gu Ao's investment can make a profit from the tourism industry better and faster.
The original "The Last Emperor" and "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" were just awards, but the award-winning movies can only be used to export foreign cultures and establish a status in the martial arts world, and are of no use to promote popularity among the people and tourism.
Yangchun Baixue’s award and Xialiba people’s popularity must be strong both hands.
"Stop when you see it is good, don't do anything for yourself. I'm just lending you a blow to the wireless, don't offend me too much." Mr. Cha signed the words with a smile, and did not forget to leave.
Gu Ao put away, said goodbye and left.
...
In the evening of that day, TVB headquarters and comprehensive studio.
Gu Ao and Han Ting each held invitation letters and as VIP viewers, they attended Shaw Brothers' TV talent show songs just like watching the live Spring Festival Gala. They just watched it without having to be on camera.
Before entering the venue, he met Mr. Fang and gave the copy of the signature document obtained from Mr. Cha to the other party.
Mr. Fang seemed very surprised when he saw the document.
"You actually found the little dragon woman so quickly that Mr. Cha himself nodded and satisfied? We showed him most of the beautiful TVB signing actresses except Chen Yulian."
However, what Sir Shao personally promised was only a promise, and there was no need to ruin fame for such a small profit.
"This may be fate, I just happened to meet it." Gu Ao was not polite at all, and he won the dominance of casting by the way.
"Don't worry, we will keep the appointment, Gu Sheng, I wish you a happy evening." Mr. Fang also exposes it in a grand manner.
Gu Ao and Han Ting entered the venue separately. When they arrived at the studio, they sat together according to the seats under the instructions.
"I didn't expect that those people under Sir Shao would really do it. In this era, can even singers be selected by TV variety shows? This is the first time I have been to the SAR to watch such a program on site for three or four years, and it seems that it has never been held at all."
Han Ting looked at the layout of the studio, as well as the information of the audience, guests, and contestants, and was very moved. She had never been to such a special occasion of sensuality and sensuality.
Although she knew that tonight's performance event was just an appetizer for the subsequent cocktail party.
In contrast, Gu Ao is very casual and contented because he is used to seeing various "super girls/fast boys/good voices" in later generations, and his ears are already calloused when it comes to talent shows.
Tonight's "first Xiangjiang Amateur Singing Competition" seems very old-fashioned to him. It cannot be exciting at all. It just looks like watching an ordinary concert or KTV.
Sir Shao and Mr. Fang had to serve many VIP guests, so they did not send anyone to accompany Gu Ao. The seats next to him were all wealthy businessmen in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry whom they didn't know or seniors in the circle.
Gu Ao and Han Ting were chatting, the lights in the studio dimmed, the stage spotlight focused on the host, and the program was about to begin.
After saying the opening remarks of the welcome guests, the host first entered the introduction session of the judges.
"...Next, please invite the judges tonight. Let us welcome the famous Chinese superstar Ouyang Feifei!"
Then a female singer in Wanwan, who had an instant noodles exploded, entered the venue with a cool microphone.
Mainland audiences probably don’t know this person. At most, only the post-80s generation had heard her song "The Desert of Passion". But in fact, she is very old and developed in Japan in the early 1970s. ("The Desert of Passion" was originally written by Lufu Shanshang, and Ouyang Feifei was the first to translate it into Chinese. Lufu Shanshang also wrote the famous song "Airport" by Deng Lady Deng in Japan)
Nowadays, Ouyang Feifei's record sales in Japan are actually higher than that of Teresa Teng. In contrast, Teresa Teng is only more in line with the musical aesthetics of other East Asian countries, so it has a greater influence in the market outside of Japan.
Ouyang Feifei also maintained the "Champion of the total sales volume of foreign female singers in Japan" and has maintained it for more than 30 years, and was not broken by Quan Baoer of Nanba in 2012.
Compared to Gu Ao's cold face, Han Ting's reaction to the female singer on the judge was obviously stronger. Her aesthetic is of this era. It is a rare pastime to see such a female singer doing variety shows on the spot.
After Ouyang Feifei calmed down, the host began to introduce another judge tonight, and the TVB photographer's lens also followed him professionally.
"Then let us welcome tonight's second judge, Mr. Fei Yuqing, the popular superstar of Wanwan!"
Chapter completed!
