But in China, which actor is suitable to play the heroine?
You can't think of it just by thinking, so president Jia decided to go to the imperial capital to hold an actor audition, and determine the relevant actors of diga Altman through on-site audition.
Therefore, as early as the last time President Jia made an advertisement with brother long, he started the audition of actors at the same time. Then, through director Chen, he contacted the Central Academy of drama, the imperial Film Academy and other professional colleges in imperial capital. Through the teachers, he issued a notice of audition, indicating that there was a TV play CO produced by China and Japan, The audition of actors will be held between the two schools, so that all interested male and female students can go to the audition.
Then the audition began.
Nominally, the chief director of diga Altman, Hiroshi Murakami, is responsible for the audition, but our president Jia is sitting next to the director, so it's really hard to say who made the decision.
The first thing to start with is the audition of the heroine. It is said that it is a TV play CO produced by China and Japan, so there are a lot of interested students. In three days, more than 600 people came to audition.
Most of them are students in the school, because according to the requirements of President Jia, the age of actors should not exceed 22 years old. After all, there can be no too old heroines in teenagers' TV dramas, so basically, the auditions are female students in several schools.
After three days of investigation, so many names familiar to future generations have entered the preliminary screening list.
Including: Jia Jingwen, Zhang Ziyi, Jiang Wenli, Yu Feihong, Jing Qiaoqiao, Jiang Qingqing, Xu Jinglei, Yuan Li, and general manager Jia. Anyway, the suitable actresses who graduated from grade 88 to 92 are basically here.
And they are very tender. They are all the most youthful years. Compared with their age after they are basically 28 years old, they still have a very obvious smell of youth.
However, after watching these people for several times, Jia always didn't feel the shadow of the heroine and couldn't make up his mind.
"President, or Miss Jia Jingwen, I think she is the most suitable of all!" finally, chief director Hiroshi Murakami took the initiative to suggest.
"Otherwise, that's it!" President Jia nodded. Jia Jingwen was indeed a good choice. Zhao Min she later played was Jia Yapeng's favorite version of Zhao Min, but President Jia still felt that there was something wrong.
Because Jia Jingwen's temperament is too lively, and there is a clever strength all over her. This strength is inconsistent with Lina's more mature and stable character. Jia Yapeng is worried that the effect of Jia Jingwen's performance will not be very good.
Of course, it is also possible that our president Jia is too preconceived, because he is too impressed in his previous life, so he can't change it.
So when President Jia was about to nod and agree to the proposal, there was a sudden knock at the door.
"Sorry, I'm late, because I want to compete... Swimming competition... Synchronized swimming... I'm very sorry... Can you give me a chance?" a little girl stood there at the door, panting.
The little girl's hair was wet, and there was still dripping water on it, as if she had just been fished out of the water.
"Taohong classmate?" when he saw this man, President Jia still couldn't react, but when he heard the words synchronized swimming, President Jia remembered.
"It's me, you know me!" peach asked in surprise when she heard her name.
"I have a registration list here. The only one who didn't come to the audition, who is good at swimming, is you!" President Jia held up the list in his hand and said with a smile, so Murakami Hongshi on one side admired it very much.
You know, there are thousands of names in this list, and each name is followed by news materials such as different specialties, age, school and acting experience.
And they didn't count who didn't come to the audition. The president can directly find the information of this little actor in such a list. This skill is extraordinary!
Is this the strength of the legendary genius?
"I'm sorry to bother you, director!" said peach red with a ashamed face.
"It's all right. If you take part in the synchronized swimming competition, you can win glory for the country!" Jia Yapeng handed a small page of the script to Taohong, and then said, "come on, try to play it!"
Taohong nodded. She thought there would be a short scene in the script for her to perform.
But unexpectedly, the lines on the script look a lot, but all of them are the words "Da Gu".
【
Your secret lover, team member Dagu, is missing. You shout out the name of "Dagu" in excitement.
Team member Dagu returns safely. You shout out the name of "Dagu" in excitement.
Team member Dagu is about to start at the risk of death. You shout out the name of "Dagu" in excitement.
………………
】
In this page of the script, there are 10 different scenes, and then they all ask Taohong to shout Dagu's name.
Obviously, this is a test of Taohong's control over emotion and expression.
However, in this way of audition, Taohong has never been tested, nor has it been taught in the school. Taohong scolded the director for being terrible, and began to brew emotions again. First, she shouted the name of Dagu according to different situations.
"OK!" seeing the pink expression, Jia Yapeng nodded. That's right. This is the Lina he wants.
So the heroine of diga Altman was settled.
After the heroine became a Chinese, President Jia simply did nothing and changed more than half of the actors except Dagu into a Chinese.
After discussion and asking the actor's personal meaning.
Among them, the female captain of the victory team, weapon researcher Masami hori, and computer expert Yoshiyuki Noguchi are still in the charge of the former Fuso actor.
The vice captain he Zongfang is played by Zhang Fengyi. Jia Yapeng, an actor who has just performed a small building in farewell my concubine and one of the future Emperor's professional households, didn't expect him to promise. Jia Yapeng thought he would refuse. In fact, Jia Yapeng thought more. The output of TV dramas and films these days is not much. If you can play, you can make money. As for the type of film, even Comrade Zhang Fengyi has played, not to mention a TV drama directed by teenagers.
Then there was the ace fighter pilot Chen Zhefu, played by Hu Jun. the drama actor, who was reluctantly pulled by his friends, ran to the audition, and then Jia Yapeng saw it at a glance and was on the list.
There is also the director of the victory team, Yang Zejing, the general person in charge of the Pacific Rim, who was finally played by Cheng Daoming, which President Jia didn't expect.
This is Mr. Jia's favorite actor in his previous life. Mr. Jia thinks that no actor can compare with him in that mature domineering spirit, so Mr. Jia has long wanted to invite him to guest play the general manager.
However, President Jia was a little embarrassed to speak. He mentioned this when chatting with Director Chen. Unexpectedly, director Chen directly talked to Cheng Daoming. Cheng Daoming smiled and said yes. He also saw Altman and thought it was a very interesting type, and it was just a guest role, so he agreed very readily.
As a result, all the main actors in the TV series were determined. As for the remaining less important actors, President Jia ignored them and handed them all over to the director group. Anyway, he asked Fusang and Huaxia to have half of the actors respectively.
Because January 23 is new year's Eve, the crew did not start immediately after determining the actors, but officially started on February 10. However, Fusang's team basically arrived in Huaxia in December and began a lot of viewfinder work, and then had to make all kinds of leather cases and simulation models of buildings.
In fact, these are the big part of the real cost. A leather case costs tens of thousands of yuan and an ordinary building model costs thousands of yuan. In addition, there are all kinds of mobile railways, car models and street lamps. Anyway, all kinds of models need a lot of preparation time.
However, the crew is very happy to say that because the labor cost of China is very cheap, the actual shooting cost may be greatly reduced. The originally planned shooting cost of 1 billion yen may only be about 200 million or 300 million in the end.
[PS: if you have any comments on this lineup, you can leave a message here. If you do have great comments, the author will modify it. In addition, don't mention the original Japanese lineup.
The Chinese bought the company and invested money to shoot it. It doesn't make sense that all the actors are Japanese, right? So you can think that the actor is not suitable, but the author Jun won't respond if he asked for the full original lineup.]
