Chapter 787(1/2)
Sun Quan is quite looking forward to Zhu Yawen taking on the role of "This Dad is Not ordinary", although Zhu Yawen's image does not match the image of Huang Shan, the male lead in "This Dad is Not ordinary".
But he can understand that there are differences in film and television production, character design and plot.
Especially after having the experience of producing the first season of "The Undead", Sun Quan can better understand the considerations made in terms of actors when making film and television dramas.
When he was preparing for the first season of "The Undead", he repeatedly emphasized that the image of the actor must be as consistent as possible with the characters in the original work.
But this concept gradually changed later.
For example, Cheng Hao, the actor who plays the male lead in "The Undead".
Cheng Hao's image is inconsistent with the original protagonist of "The Undead", and Cheng Hao is a bit too handsome.
But when the actor auditioned, Sun Quan was moved by Cheng Hao's acting skills.
Although he is too handsome and inconsistent with the original character, but has excellent acting skills, Sun Quan decided to try it out and let Cheng Hao play the leading role in "The Undead's Last Wish".
And the final effect... Everyone knows that Cheng Hao performed very well. After the first season of "The Undead" was broadcast online, his popularity and reputation were also very good.
Even if there are occasional negative reviews, they rarely criticize the male star Cheng Hao.
Therefore, after that, Sun Quan no longer emphasized the fit between the actor and the character image as he did at the beginning.
As long as it is not too much, as long as the actor has excellent acting skills, he is willing to consider it.
As for what is not too much?
In Sun Quan's opinion, as long as you play Wu Dalang, you are not over 1.7 meters tall; if you play the vixen, you are not like Sister Furong; if you play Xiang Shaolong, you are not a fair-skinned and beautiful sissy... and so on, that's not too much.
Although the image of the male actor Zhu Yawen is inconsistent with the image of Huang Shan, the male lead in "This Daddy is Not Common".
But not too outrageous.
The difference is... in the original setting, Huangshan's image is not as tough as Zhu Yawen.
At least in the early plot of "This Daddy is Not Ordinary", the image of the male protagonist Huang Shan is biased towards the image of a gentle scholar.
After all, in the early setting of this book, Huangshan did not endure much hardship when he was a teenager. He went to college all the way. After graduating from college, he was quite idle in his work, but he still didn’t endure much hardship. Even after getting married, his life was still quite comfortable. It was not until his father ran away with his wife’s money that his father had run away, and his life suddenly changed.
Like the lyrics sang "Today Is Going into the Storm Again..."
Perhaps the word "you" in this lyrics can be removed, which will be more accurate.
So when Sun Quan was writing this book, although the male protagonist Huang Shan, who had just appeared, was not as weak as a gentle and delicate university graduate.
And Zhu Yawen's image...
His facial lines are relatively tough, and when he grinned, he always shows his good teeth. As long as he sees his good teeth, anyone will think that this guy should have great physical fitness.
And this is inconsistent with Huangshan’s image.
Of course, Sun Quan felt that this image was not a big problem, at least... If Zhu Yawen came to play this role, after his wife ran away with the money, the male protagonist he played was following the plot. When his son inherited his father's business and learned to kill pigs, he could successfully overturn a big fat pig on the ground and slaughter it with one knife, which was more convincing.
pity……
A few days later, Xue Zihan called to tell Sun Quan that Zhu Yawen had a schedule conflict. Before the first year of high school students asked him to play this role, Zhu Yawen had already taken on a spy war drama called "Earth Fire" and also played the leading role.
Therefore, Zhu Yawen politely rejected the invitation from a senior high school student and did not accept "This dad is extraordinary".
The moment he heard the bad news, Sun Quan sighed in his heart - a good pig slayer is gone...
On the phone, Xue Zihan told him that the director of a senior high school senior was already looking for other male actors, and it would not take long before good news would come.
Sun Quan asked her if she knew who Director Gao planned to invite this time?
Xue Zihan told him——"It seems that he is planning to invite Xu Zheng. Director Gao said that they have worked together and may be able to invite him."
Sun Quan laughed silently at that time.
He doesn't believe it!
He didn't believe that first-year high school students could invite Xu Zheng to act in this drama during this period.
Because his memories before his rebirth told him that during this period, Xu Zheng should have been preparing to write, direct and act "Lost in Thailand", and he is very ambitious! During this period, not to mention a first-year high school student, I guess no matter which director in China invites Xu Zheng to star in anything, whether it is a TV series or a movie, he will probably be rejected.
A bald man who wants to write, direct and act... no one can stop him.
Isn't there a saying that I'm bald, but I've become stronger.
Countless examples tell us that bald heads often cannot be underestimated.
Sure enough, within a few days, Xue Zihan called and told Sun Quan-"Oh! Xu Zheng also declined..."
Through the phone, she could feel her disappointment in her tone.
It seems that she also wants Xu Zheng to play the male lead in this new drama.
She probably likes watching TV series starring Xu Zheng! There are many audiences like her in China.
She may not have thought about whether Xu Zheng's image and age are in line with the setting of the role of Huangshan.
Sun Quan thought about it, but he was too lazy to remind her. Anyway, he had expected Xu Zheng would not take on this drama.
Even if Xu Zheng is not preparing for "Lost in Thailand" recently, Xu Zheng himself probably won't take on "This Daddy is Not Ordinary".
reason?
Sun Quan felt that Xu Zheng should not be confident that he could overturn a big fat pig alone during the shooting and then slaughter it with one knife.
He never lit up his talent for "pig killer" in his life.
...
I have to say that the senior manager has a vision.
After Xu Zheng refused to accept this new drama, the first-year high school student actually put his ideas on Huang Bo again.
He didn't care at all that Huang Bo's image and Huang Shan's character image were a bit too different. Sun Quan estimated that after Xu Zheng declined the first year of high school, he was unwilling to give up and wanted to find another comedian with a good popularity to star in "This Daddy is Not Ordinary".
Sun Quan did not express any objection to this. Firstly... He liked the actor Huang Bo, and secondly... he believed that the invitation of the first-year high school director would still fail.
Because in his memory before his rebirth, Huang Bo was also one of the starring actors of "Lost in Thailand".
Now Xu Zheng should be preparing for "Lost in Thailand". Huang Bo may have signed a contract to star in "Lost in Thailand". Can the conflict in schedules be resolved by the first-year high school director?
A male actor with popular acting skills does not lack film appointments. In addition to "Lost in Thailand", Huang Bo may also accept other film appointments.
The invitation from the director of the first-year high school senior should be too late.
The facts... seem to prove something - Sun Quan seems to have the potential to be a charlatan.
No accident, he predicted it again this time.
The day before yesterday, Xue Zihan told him on the phone that the director of a senior high school student was about to invite Huang Bo to star in.
Today I received a call from her - "Oh! Huang Bo actually declined, and said there was no schedule..."
After hearing this expected news, Sun Quan wanted to laugh, and was also a little curious - who will the director of a senior high school student be invited next?
Could it be Wang Baby?
The three potential comedy actors in the mainland, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo and Director Gao, have already invited them. Is it time for Wang Baobao to be the next one?
If he is really going to invite Wang Baobao, Sun Quan feels that he can be a charlatan again, and Wang Baobao will probably refuse Director Gao's invitation.
Because of "Lost in Thailand"... Wang Baobao is also one of the starring actors!
but……
More than two weeks passed in a row, and Sun Quan didn't hear that Director Gao was about to invite anyone. It was because the male actors he said earlier that he wanted to invite were rejected. Director Gao was shy, so he didn't plan to tell Xue Zihan in advance before the official invitation was successful?
The above is Sun Quan's guess. He feels that with his potential to be a charlatan, this guess should be very close to the facts.
Anyway, every time he talked with Xue Zihan on the phone or video conference in the past two weeks, when he asked her which male actor Director Gao was about to invite recently, Xue Zihan said - "I don't know! Director Gao didn't tell me again."
...
The male actor who is always favored declined. Although this matter has little to do with Sun Quan, the one who loses the most is always Director Gao.
But Sun Quan found it funny, and occasionally felt that his face was a little dull.
After all, "This Daddy is Not Ordinary" was written by him, adapted by Dayu, and a new drama that his Xianyu Film and Television is preparing to invest in.
While those famous male actors rejected Director Gao, weren’t they actually rejecting him, Mr. Sun and his Salt Fish Film and Television?
If Sun's reputation is a little more, the scale and strength of Xianyu Film and Television are a little more, will those male actors carefully consider the new drama he and his Xianyu Film and Television invested in?
For example, he is one of the top domestic directors, holding a movie script and invited these actors to play. Even Xu Zheng, who is busy preparing for "Lost in Thailand", may also consider taking on the role?
After all, before "Lost in Thailand" was released, who would have expected the box office of this movie to be a big hit?
Even Xu Zheng himself, when he was released in this movie, he probably didn't expect the box office to be so exaggerated, right?
Sun Quan was in a little unhappy when he thought about this in his heart.
In this mood, he went to the Demon City to attend the final banquet of the second season of "The Undead".
Last night, he received a notice and invitation from Wang Zheng, saying that the last scene of the second season of "The Undead" should be able to finish the last scene today, and hoped that he could take time to go to the Magic City to attend the final banquet of the drama.
Upon hearing this invitation, Sun Quan was not in a hurry to refuse.
Instead, he went back to discuss with his wife Yuan Shuiqing. Because of the previous incident with Huo Yiyi, Yuan Shuiqing drew a circle for him in the morning...
——He will not be allowed to go to the Demon City alone in the future.
To be continued...
