Chapter 576 577 [Ants have been walking for ten years]
Zhang Wumin played by Xiang Nan, in the movie, the scene is only ten minutes in total.
But Xiang Nan went back and forth to Beijing and Tianjin five times for this, and it took almost two months before he finished filming all the scenes.
At the end of the filming, it was already December, entering winter.
But many of the scenes are summer scenes. Therefore, it is very cold, and they have to wear half sleeves and shorts. So much so that everyone hissed from the cold, hahaha, and put on their down jackets as soon as they shouted Ka.
I really suffered from old age.
But this also shows the dedication of the artists.
You must know that a great guy like Xiang Nan is shivering from the cold. As for the leading actors in the film, Mr. Li Mingqi is in his 60s, and Mr. Feng Gong is in his 40s... They also have to wear single clothes to film, but they don't complain or complain. It's really admirable!
…
During Xiang Nan's filming of "It's Okay to Have Fun", he also participated in several crew auditions.
One of them is "My Father and Mother" planned by director Zhang Yimou.
Although Xiang Nan has never seen this movie, he has heard of its name. Knowing that this movie made Zhang Ziyi, who was still a rookie at the time, popular.
And twenty years later, one of its lines was interpreted by a certain Xiaohua as a meme that swept the Internet, "The ants have been racing for ten years, so be sober~"
Xiang Nan is still very interested in starring in this movie.
Zhang Yimou is currently the top director in the mainland entertainment industry. His "Red Sorghum", "Ju Dou", "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", "Raise the Red Lantern", "To Live" and so on, are all in the mainland film industry. His classic works have been affirmed by domestic and international awards many times.
Therefore, cooperating with him will help improve my status in the film and television industry. People like Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li, Ni Xuan, Zhou Dongyu, etc. were all made popular by him.
Therefore, in order to succeed in the audition, he also made a lot of preparations.
"My Father and Mother" is adapted from the original novel "Remembrance". Xiang Nan bought this novel specially for this purpose and read it several times. Appreciate the characters.
In addition, he also consulted teachers and seniors about people's spiritual outlook, speech and behavior, daily wear, etc. thirty or forty years ago, trying to let him know more about that era.
Afterwards, he took Miao Pu and Pan Yuchen to the crew to audition.
…
"The play directed by Zhang Yimou is really great. Even if you can't be the leading role, it's good to play a supporting role." Pan Yuchen said excitedly.
"Yuan Hua, thank you for taking us to the audition, I caused you trouble." Miao Pu said shyly.
"It's okay, what's the trouble, it's just a short journey." Xiang Nan smiled, and then pointed out, "After you get there, just try to relax as much as possible.
Director Zhang knows that we are all newcomers, so he doesn't care about our acting skills. In comparison, appearance, temperament, comprehension, and degree of care are what he cares most about. "
When Director Zhang was casting for "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", he paid the most attention to the appearance and temperament of the actors, requiring them to be pure. Therefore, Zhou Dongyu, who is pure, youthful, with a hint of childishness and a sweet smile, was selected from thousands of actors. .
And "My Father and Mother" and "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" are basically the same way. So his requirements for actors should be similar.
"This "My Father and Mother" is about thirty or forty years ago. People at that time had no cosmetics or beautiful clothes, and they advocated natural beauty, simple beauty, and original ecological beauty.
So remember, don’t wear makeup, and don’t wear beautiful clothes. Simple, plain, **** makeup, the more natural the better. "Xiang Nan pointed them out.
Miao Pu and Pan Yuchen both nodded.
…
When I arrived at the office of the crew of "My Father and Mother", I saw that there were more people auditioning here than the crew of "It's Okay to Have Fun".
The corridors of the hotel are crowded, and it is very difficult to take a step.
This is no wonder, after all, director Zhang Yimou is much more famous, status, and influential than director Yang Yuzhou. Naturally, more people are willing to cooperate with him.
"My God, there are so many people." Pan Yuchen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Well, wait patiently." Xiang Nan smiled bitterly, it was difficult for him to squeeze through so many people, and naturally he couldn't enjoy the preferential treatment of celebrities, so he could only line up here like ordinary people.
Fortunately, there are three beauties accompanying, so it doesn't feel boring.
"Oh, look, these girls are so beautiful." Pan Yuchen said suddenly, "We just wear this outfit without even putting on makeup, isn't it too rash?"
They all listened to Xiang Nan's words, no makeup, no dress up, and intentionally dressed simply. But looking at it now, most of the people who came to the interview had put on make-up, well-dressed, and well-dressed clothes.
Compared with these people, the two of them are nothing but idiots.
"Listen to me, that's right." Xiang Nan waved his hands.
Director Zhang is a photographer with a high aesthetic taste. Thinking that putting on makeup, dressing up, and wearing good clothes can attract his attention, that would be too underestimating.
Pan Yuchen, however, looked more and more confused, couldn't help but secretly took out the small mirror, put on foundation, eyebrows, and lipstick...
Xiang Nan has actually caught a glimpse of her small movements. But he did not persuade.
People are responsible for their own choices. He's not the Virgin, and he can't afford to worry about other people's affairs.
…
After standing in line for nearly two hours, Xiang Nan felt his legs were numb, and finally it was his turn to submit his resume.
"Hello, I'm here to audition for the role of young Luo Changyu." He smiled and handed in his resume.
"Are you Yuan Hua?!" The staff took the resume, glanced at it, and then asked Xiang Nan with a big smile.
"Yes, I am." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Okay, I'm your fan, can you sign me?" The staff laughed.
"Of course." Xiang Nan laughed.
Miao Pu and Pan Yuchen saw that Xiang Nan could meet fans here, and couldn't help but envy his popularity.
"Thank you." The staff collected the signatures, and then said to Xiang Nan with a smile, "Go to the back and meet the director."
"Thank you." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Hey, we..." Seeing that Xiang Nan was allowed to meet the director, Pan Yuchen hurriedly called out to him.
Xiang Nan smiled, "Brother, these two are my classmates, can you help me?"
The staff thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, it's for your sake. But after entering, don't talk or move around."
"Yes." Miao Pu and Pan Yuchen nodded obediently, and then came to the back with Xiang Nan and Yan Yan.
"Yuan Hua, thank you." Miao Pu said gratefully.
If there is no Xiang Nan today, the two of them will be asked to go back and wait for the letter after putting down their resumes like most applicants. And this time, it is guaranteed that there will be no more news.
"You're welcome." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.
