Chapter 1239

It's hard to resist the harassment from the insiders. Ning Hao can't help but call Li Mu. He first complained about his experiences in these days, then asked him when he could return to Beijing, or when he could confirm the casting of Flying Tigers.

Li Mu didn't hide from Ning Hao and told him that he would return to Beijing in the next two days. However, in the selection of roles in flying tigers, among the Chinese actors, he only identified one heroine, that is, Du Wei, the little girl he always loved.

Ning Hao has seen the script of Flying Tigers, so she is very approbated for Du Wei's role as the Chinese heroine. She laughs and says, "I know you will definitely give this role to Du Wei. To be honest, Du Wei is the best actor I can imagine."

"Heroes think alike." Li Mu smiled and said: "Dewey is a young girl, but her acting skills are really good. The most important thing is that she has not learned to perform at all, but she has the confidence to play what is what."

"Confidence?" Ninghao asked him, "shouldn't it be acting?"

Li Mu said with a smile, "either acting or self-confidence."

In Li Mu's view, self-confidence is the essence of acting.

People who don't have self-confidence can't even control their expressions well and think about where to put their hands for half a day when they are in front of the camera, let alone acting.

Only those who have enough self-confidence, can face the camera calmly or are not affected by the camera at all, can have the soil to cultivate acting skills.

The premise of what is like is that you don't have any fear and tension in your heart. First of all, you can make sure to play yourself well in front of the camera. If you don't have confidence, you can't even play your role well in front of the camera.

In fact, Li Mu has long found this problem through some small details.

No matter in the West or in the East, TV stations often do some street interviews. However, it can be clearly found that the ordinary people in the East, mainly in China, tend to show an obvious tension when facing the camera, but most of the ordinary people in the west can talk in front of the camera when they are interviewed, Whether it's talking, expression or behavior, it's very natural. You can't see the tense appearance. That's the importance of self-confidence.

Li Mu thinks that the people in the eastern countries are generally lack of self-confidence. In fact, this is mainly because in recent years, the eastern countries, especially the Chinese nation, have been bullied by all countries in the world, and the wars are continuous. Even in the era of peace, they have experienced a long period of difficulties and a period of self-reliance. After the reform and opening up, the life of the Chinese people The confidence of the people began to come back after the conditions were gradually improved.

Chinese people in the 21st century are far more confident than those at the end of the last century. However, it will take a long time for a nation's confidence to come back completely.

In contrast, most of the western countries are old-fashioned imperialist countries. They have established colonies around the world since the age of great navigation, and led the development of industry, technology and economy in the world since the beginning of the industrial revolution. When people in other countries were still oppressed and working hard to feed their stomachs, they had already got rid of the problem of food and turned to The pursuit of a higher material and spiritual world.

Just because Westerners have been in the forefront of the world since modern times, so the citizens of western countries have far exceeded the confidence of the Oriental people since the whole modern times. This difference in self-confidence will imperceptibly lead to many very special social phenomena. For example, in the western developed countries, Chinese people often suffer some discrimination or injustice But in China, Westerners can always get more generous courtesy.

In addition, the national acting will also be deeply affected by this kind of self-confidence, so that 95% of the mass actors have no acting skills to speak of. Once they appear in front of the camera, they will bring a deep sense of disobedience, and the actors from professional colleges and universities are no more than the ordinary masses. 80% of the acting skills are below the passing line. If they have enough confidence in their bones, their acting skills are complete Body level will rise more than one level.

Look at Du Wei again, this girl always has a kind of calm self-confidence, which is related to her family conditions and her growing environment. The theory that the economic basis determines the superstructure has been greatly confirmed in her. The children of rich families will be more confident than the ordinary people when they are young, and those who live in a troubled life for firewood, rice, oil and salt It's hard to see the aura of self-confidence in children who are worried about what to eat and what to wear tomorrow.

As a man of two generations, Li Mu can feel how great the economic foundation has brought to a person's change.

If it's not for rebirth, if it's not for the advanced thinking that has dominated the world for more than ten years, it's hard for Li Mu to really have confidence.

In fact, Li Mu himself has been a typical young man who lacks self-confidence in his last life. His family conditions are relatively limited, so that he has developed a cautious character since he was a child.

Too good things to eat, too expensive clothes to buy;

going to a high-end restaurant will feel cramped and uneasy, and going to a high-end shopping mall will feel like a mountain in the sky;When we talk with our good friends, we have excellent eloquence and can't move for a long time, but in the class, the teacher calls us to recite a text, and the voice is nervous;

it's not easy to go out of the country, and when we land to pass the customs, we will be inexplicably nervous. We can speak English to foreigners, even if it's just a simple excuse me, we can only export it after half a day's brewing in our hearts

This is the influence of economic foundation on oneself in the last life.

At the thought of this, Li Mu especially hopes that the young people in China will have more confidence and less inferiority in the process of growing up. He also hopes that in the next two or three decades, when the people after 00 grow up, they will have the same confidence as the westerners.

Li Mu has a lot of feelings about self-confidence, but Ning Hao doesn't have such a deep experience. In contrast, he is more interested in the choice of Li Mu's hero. He asks Li Mu whether he thinks well and who will play the role of hero.

Li Mu replied: "to be honest, I haven't figured out who the hero should be. Because the definition of the role is that the actor has to play with Tom Hanks, Leonardo and Anne Hathaway. If the acting skills are too different, it will definitely bring a strong sense of disobedience to the audience. But in my impression, the actor with such strength can Basically, they are all artists of the older generation. I can't find them in the younger generation. "

Ning Hao said, "it's really not easy to find this role. His requirements are too high, but the requirements of the hostess will be lower. After all, she only needs to play a good opponent with Leonardo."

Speaking of this, Ning Hao suddenly thought of something and said, "by the way, the golden family is on the air. I've heard that the quality of this TV play is still very high. You seem to know Chen Kun, the star. How do you like him?"

"Chen Kun..." Li Mu smashed his lips and cooperated with him. In the old boy, he was the No. 2 actor. The whole cooperation was very smooth. Chen Kun was modest, and the cooperation degree was very high, but Li Mu always felt that his acting skills seemed to be poor.

Chen Kun in Li Mu's impression, no matter what role he plays, seems to hold a certain strength deliberately, which makes his acting style seem a little unnatural, a little more direct, in fact, the acting is not in place.

When Ning Hao heard that Li Mu was not satisfied with Chen Kun, he said with a smile: "if you think Chen Kun is not suitable, you can also consider Lu Yi. He should have started earlier than Chen Kun. He was already angry when he never died in peace."

Li Mu thought about the image of land wing, shook his head and said, "land wing is not suitable. He is too young to act as an anti Japanese War pilot."

Ninghao then said several young actors who are popular at present, but Li Mu refused one by one without exception, which made Ninghao helpless, holding back a sentence for a long time: "I think it's better to let Huang Bo play! His acting is very, very OK. What does this guy look like? "

"No way." Li Mu immediately vetoed: "Huang Bo's acting skill is no problem, but the image is a little sorry, you let him play this role, and play with Anne Hathaway, don't you think that kind of painting style will be very strange?"? Like a bachelor in the village, er Niu suddenly married a woman like Wang Guixian one day... "

"What about Xia Yu? They are the movie masters! "

"No, it's too narrow! And to be honest, the appearance conditions are not much better than Huang Bo! "

"Ah!" Ning Hao sighed anxiously and said, "would you like to see if Hong Kong and Taiwan actors are suitable? How about Chen Guanxi? "Infernal Affairs" is still very brilliant, young, handsome, acting is OK

"Day!" Li Mu subconsciously scolded: "you want to pit me!"

Ninghao asked in surprise, "what's the matter, boss? I'm trying to give you some advice. How can I hurt you... "

Li Mu just came back to his senses. Ning Hao must have no idea about the tragedy caused by repairing the computer several years later. Chen Guanxi has a high face value and his acting skills are OK. But when he thought about repairing the computer, Li Mu felt that he could not avoid it. What's more, Li Mu really didn't want to use Hong Kong and Taiwan actors in this movie. He felt that this was a time when he represented the mainland film industry and Hollywood For the previous cooperation, he should guarantee the purity of the cooperation. He is not going to invite the film, Hong Kong, Taiwan and foreign Chinese actors.

Therefore, Li Mu said to Ning Hao, "in terms of this movie, I want to work in the whole mainland, both in front of and behind the scenes."

Ning Hao sighed, "well, I'll look for you."

"Good."

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu was also a little disconsolate. Spielberg was already preparing to start shooting in the United States. As soon as the shooting in the United States was finished, he would come to Huaxia immediately. However, he had not thought about who the Chinese hero in the script should use. This was really a difficult thing to do.

Wei Lan listened to Li Mu's phone call all the way. Seeing the sadness on his face, she asked carefully, "honey, have you seen a movie called that mountain, that man, that dog?"
