After many twists and turns, "The Walking Dead," the first authentic zombie movie in history, is finally about to be launched.

As a restricted production, it is certainly difficult to start filming such a TV series. Although the United States advocates democracy and freedom and even allows many cable TV stations to broadcast pornographic films, horror zombie films like this are very restricted by policies. The United States

The Civilization Department is very strict about TV dramas that “affect the growth and development of children.”

Children and children are the flowers of America. Although these children have been exposed to zombies, vampires, and werewolves since they were young, and grew up in horror comics, if you really make a zombie TV series, it will still have a great impact on them. Therefore, it is related

The department was very cautious in this regard, and in the end, Yi Feiyang found a backdoor before it was approved.

With the filming permit in hand, the next most important thing for filming is the selection of actors. There are many actors who are suitable for the roles of this TV series. However, those Hollywood filmmakers disdain this kind of downgraded TV production. They are movie actors.

Not a TV actor!

Yi Feiyang was unwilling to use his strength to let big-name actors like Johnny Depp or Nicolas Cage star in the TV series, so he had no choice but to look for them among TV actors.

Those TV actors were very excited when they heard the news. The reason is that the drama shot by Yi Feiyang is a large-scale production and it is his first TV drama. Yi Feiyang's fame as a director alone can make this drama

The play became popular. Under such circumstances, whoever didn't want to participate in the show would have to fight to get into the crew.

Yifeiyang Ningqiwuhua will not call your name just because you are famous in the TV industry. His arrangement is very simple. Interviews. Important roles must be interviewed one by one. Especially the male protagonist and the female protagonist, they must be interviewed in person!

…

"The filming of China Yi's "The Walking Dead" has started, and the casting interviews are about to begin!"

"Do you want to join "The Walking Dead"? Do you want to experience zombie life? Please come, the door to hell will be opened for you!"

"Do you have a dream? Do you have passion? Give you a stage to show yourself! The great director Yi Feiyang is offering a reward of 10 million to recruit the best actors!"

There is no doubt that the last one is the most explosive. For many people, 10 million U.S. dollars is simply an astronomical figure. In Yi Feiyang’s words: "I want to turn these 10 million U.S. dollars into 1,000 tons of explosives to detonate the United States!"

"

…

As various recruitment posters and interview news were carried out in the four major cities in the United States, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia and other places, everyone knew that a century-defining zombie TV series was recruiting actors, so the little boy on the street

Gangsters, student artists, hip-hop people, rebellious youths, and gold diggers with dreams. They are all heading towards the goal---the Los Angeles audition site for "The Walking Dead"!

A black reporter was interviewing this continuous flow of people for interviews on the street, and said with excitement: "God, if you haven't seen it, you can't believe that there are so many people participating in the recruitment of actors for the drama "The Walking Dead"! They

Some came from Detroit, some from Chicago, some from New York, and some from Philadelphia. They were huge, like migrating birds..."

There are all kinds of people interviewing, and the most bizarre thing is how they dress. Seemingly in order to leave a "deep" impression, these people dress up as black vampires, zombies, and some even directly make up to look hideous.

The zombie shape, so you can see a large number of "zombie" walking on the road from afar, thousands of them gathered in Los Angeles. And Los Angeles has become the first "Zombie City" in history.

This situation has made the Los Angeles city government almost cry, because they have received thousands of complaint calls, all because their children were scared to tears by zombies, zombies, vampires, devils and so on on the streets.

There is no way, many parents and adults have no choice but to trick their children: "This is celebrating Halloween in advance, everything is fake!"

But even so, the fact that Los Angeles was possessed by "ghosts" has become big news. Its popularity has rapidly increased in the United States, and the tourism industry has also grown significantly. The city government has turned from crying to laughing, thinking that it has become a city of zombies.

It's not a bad thing either.

The Walking Dead Cast Recruiting Office in Los Angeles.

Four words: Overcrowded!

AMC TV station was crowded inside and outside, and even the parking lot outside was full of "actors" waiting for interviews. To be precise, they were "ghosts, ghosts, and snake gods", zombies, zombies, vampires, bloody roses...

A reporter managed to squeeze into the crowd with a microphone and interviewed a white zombie: "Hey, man, what role are you applying for?"

"Of course he's the leading actor!"

"What if I'm not selected?"

"Oh, it doesn't matter, a supporting actor is fine too!"

"You are very perseverant!"

"No, mainly for the 10 million!"

"..."

A moment later, the black reporter interviewed another girl dressed as a vampire.

"Hi, dear lady, may I ask why you want to participate in recruitment?"

"To be famous!" the vampire girl said nonchalantly while chewing gum.

"So do you think you can be chosen?"

"I don't know. I heard that many actresses want to sleep with directors. Is this true?" the vampire girl asked the reporter.

"This...I can guarantee that China Yi will never do it!"

"Why? Don't all men like this tone?"

"Because his girlfriend is so beautiful that she won't fall in love with anyone else!"

…

To be precise, actor recruitment and actor interviews are boring.

Although you can see a lot of strange people walking around in front of you, introducing themselves and proving themselves like a comedy, the various performances and rhetoric are simply more exciting than America's Got Talent.

For example, a guy who played the role of a werewolf during an audition imitated howling like a wolf as soon as he got on stage. However, after roaring for a long time, there was no reaction from the judges' table, and instead he attracted a bitch.

There was also an actor who played the role of a zombie. As soon as he came on stage, he crooked his neck to scare people. As a result, he was thrown a lot of rotten tomatoes at the actor.

It can be said that actor interviews and recruitment are the kind of work that tests your laughter. You must hold back your laughter. When you see all kinds of hanging threads, you must maintain a serious posture, and then tell him whether he is a

Whether a good actor performs well or not, he or she is passed or passed.

But for Yi Feiyang, none of this was important. It wasn't funny at all, because his whole mind was immersed in the preparation of the TV series.

Nowadays, the comic "The Walking Dead" is becoming very popular. With the news that the TV station is going to start filming this drama, it has made the comic even more popular. Since then, it has also put a lot of pressure on Yi Feiyang.

, because Yi Feiyang knows very well that when literary works are adapted into movies and TV series, the most criticized aspect is "whether they respect the original work."

For example, there are n works by master Jin Yong in the previous life, as well as the four major classical masterpieces that have been adapted to death, etc., because these literary works are relatively abstract. Everyone has different Linghu Chong, Yang Guo and Guo Jing in their minds. They all have different ones.

It is really difficult for Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie to unify their thoughts.

So after careful consideration, Yi Feiyang decided that this drama should strive to be loyal to the original work. "The Walking Dead" is a popular super comic work, and it will have fans all over the world in the future. If the TV series cannot pay tribute to the original work, then the die-hard fans of the comic will

Swearing motherfucker.

In addition, Yi Feiyang also hopes that loyal fans of comic works will become loyal viewers of his TV series, but he cannot make these parents angry.

Therefore, Yi Feiyang teamed up with Fatty Robert, the original author of the comic, to focus on bringing some of the original scenes from the comic story directly onto TV, so that fans of the comic can see familiar scenes in it, hoping to gain their favor.

This version of "The Walking Dead" will not just limit its perspective to Atlanta. The entire United States will become a stage where zombies are raging. Here they will run wildly, roar, and howl towards humans. The bloody sunset and chaos

Major American cities, such as Atlanta, Los Angeles, Detroit, New York, etc., will become an integral part of the entire TV series on the screen.

And in the comics, Yi Feiyang will invite some big names from Fantasy Entertainment to make guest appearances, such as those famous characters who are familiar to comic fans, such as Robert Downey Jr., Nicolas Cage, Johnny Depp, and even the King of Heaven

Michael Jackson, etc... Anyway, they will die quickly in the play, and they don't worry about affecting their schedule. This will not only increase the attraction of the play, but also allow these big names to show off their talents.

Look at how they died one by one. Well, when the time comes, there will be an album called: One Hundred Ways for Super Big Stars to Die!

Looking back, although these people only show their faces in the film as guest appearances, they themselves have huge appeal and must not be underestimated.

The structure of the entire TV series is still based on the original comics, serving Fat Robert's twin themes of "darkness and light" and "death and rebirth".

Being loyal to the original work is only similar in certain scenes and characters. Yi Feiyang is self-aware and wants to create a brand new world based on his current strength. Doing so is still somewhat radical and risky.

Now, he is challenging another field. Although this field is looked down upon or not worth mentioning by many big directors, in Yi Feiyang's view, if he fails in such a field, then what else can he do?

Going to meet Mr. Jiang Dong in Hong Kong with face?!

Therefore, Yi Feiyang maintained a cautious attitude and simply used the overall structure of the original "The Walking Dead" TV series in his previous life to make certain modifications. The advantage of this is that it is relatively safe and within his own capabilities.

But after the TV series ends, or when he finds some free time, Yi Feiyang decides to go to the directing department of the University of Southern California to further his studies to enrich his theoretical knowledge. After all, he is only halfway through his career and has a powerful cheating machine.

.

Yi Feiyang believes that one day he will make his own movie. It will be completely his own movie from creation to shooting. It is only a matter of time.

Now, what is needed is learning.

…

Due to time constraints, the casting recruitment for "The Walking Dead" ended soon.

In the end, all the actors, including the male and female protagonists, were recruited.

The male lead Colin and the female lead Luo Li are both TV actors. To be precise, they are not very famous TV actors. They have appeared in many TV series before. But they did not expect that they would get the opportunity to play in a super big movie this time.

Director Yi Feiyang's new TV series stars the male and female protagonists. This is really "happiness comes too fast" for them.

"Oh my god. When Director Yi called me to tell me that I was accepted, I couldn't believe my ears. And when he said that I would play the female lead, I almost fainted while making pizza in the kitchen!

Happiness comes too quickly!" the heroine said in an interview later.

"As everyone knows, I am just a young actor. I have never imagined that one day I can be a leading actor... Haha, of course, to be precise. I once imagined that I was not like being a liar... But happiness came too suddenly

Well, when dear Director Yi told me that I was the leading actor, I even wondered if there was a guy with the same name and surname named Colin! God, I almost jumped with joy at that moment! Afterwards, I gave all my relatives and friends

I called them and told them the good news, but I regretted it after I made the call, because I suddenly remembered, what if the director doesn't need me anymore when filming officially starts?" These were the actor's original words when he was interviewed by the media.
