Chapter 587 The Actor Problem
Episode two.

Episode three.

Episode [-].

The plot behind "The Hidden Corner" did not disappoint Lin Ziyi. It can be said to be full of climaxes and ups and downs.

After three children discovered the murder video in the video recorder, they searched for the murderer and accidentally discovered that it was Zhang Dongsheng, a teacher at the Children's Palace.

Zhang Dongsheng also discovered the existence of the three children through the warning letter.

Then, the three children blackmailed Zhang Dongsheng for 30 yuan.

Zhang Dongsheng pretended to agree, but in fact he wanted to kill these three people and completely destroy all evidence.

The tip of the needle is against the wheat awn.

In order to achieve their own goals, both sides go back and forth and confront each other tit for tat.

After Lin Ziyi spent nearly a day reading the script, she felt it was not enough and even read it again.

There is no way, there is too much information hidden in the script of "The Hidden Corner".

This is different from "Horse". The plot of "Horse" is laid out clearly and you can understand it after watching it once.

But "The Hidden Corner" is a suspense drama. Everyone in it has evil parts, and there are so many metaphors and hints that you can't understand it just by watching it once, and you may even feel confused.

In the end, Lin Ziyi read the script three times before finally stopping.

There is no way, the plot of this TV series is so exciting, there are too many details and hidden clues.

After watching it, she patted the table and said to Xu Nan: "This TV series must be made, the sooner the better. What do you want, and what do I give you?"

Lin Ziyi couldn't wait to hold a meeting.

Nanmu Video has been online for more than a year, and it has developed very rapidly, and all departments are also very complete.

All the manpower needed to shoot the TV series "The Hidden Corner" can be provided through Nanmu Video.

At the meeting, Lin Ziyi repeatedly emphasized the need to strive for excellence and make the TV series good.

This is the next key project of the company. Anyone who dares to cheat will get out.

In fact, it doesn't need to be said by Lin Ziyi, everyone will take it seriously. After all, Xu Nan is the big boss of the company. Anyone who dares to make trouble with the big boss doesn't want to do it.

After the meeting, preparations for the TV series began.

For Xu Nan, filming this TV series was quite difficult.

The key is that this TV series is a suspense drama, and every detail in the film must withstand scrutiny without any flaws.

Xu Nan's shooting habits are a bit rough, which is the legacy of his long-term shooting of copycats and thunder films.

Strictly speaking, Xu Nan's shooting style is somewhat incompatible with this TV series. This also means that he must be extremely serious and strive for excellence when shooting this TV series. He must ensure that after watching the TV series once, the audience will watch it a second and third time. , still can't find any flaw, but it's still unfinished, it turns out there is this meaning here.

Therefore, Xu Nan has to pay close attention to every detail of this TV series, such as the filming, layout, costumes, etc., for fear that something will go wrong.

In terms of filming, Xu Nan can rely on hard work to solve it. It is nothing more than an attitude problem, but in terms of casting, Xu Nan encountered another problem.

As mentioned before, in this suspense drama, Xu Nan went to create a phenomenal TV series.

Since it is a phenomenal TV series, it cannot have any shortcomings. Every actor in it must have extremely superb acting skills. Only in this way can the TV series be guaranteed to be good enough.

The first is Zhang Dongsheng.

When the TV series was aired, this person was very popular on the Internet. The phrase "I still have a chance" became the buzzword of the year.

Many of his scenes in the TV series ended up becoming emoticons and were used for a long time.

At the same time, Zhang Dongsheng is also an extremely complex character. He was underwhelming towards his wife and father-in-law at the beginning, he was ruthless and decisive when he decided to kill his wife, and he was sinister when he was dealing with three children.

This role has too many facets. If you want to perform it well, ordinary actors really can't do it. You must be an actor with good acting skills.

The key is that this role is too young, less than thirty years old, so the actors must be selected from actors under the age of 30. Even if it is relaxed a little, the age cannot be more than 32 years old.

If you are an actor in his 50s or [-]s, Xu Nan need not worry. There are too many veteran actors with superb acting skills in the industry.

But there are very few young actors who have this kind of acting skills.

I don’t know why in recent years, domestic entertainment has generally seen a decline in acting skills, and young people with good acting skills seem to be extinct.

"Director Xu, as for the actor Zhang Dongsheng, there are very few suitable people in the industry, but I remembered one person. He should have no problem, but..."

Yu Fei, the deputy director of the crew, hesitated.

"Who?"

"Qin Hao."

Yu Fei found out the actor's information: "He debuted at the age of 15 and won the Best Actor Award at the age of 16. He is 28 years old this year and has acted in many film and television dramas. He happens to be about the same age as the protagonist."

Xu Nan carefully read Qin Hao's information and found that it was exactly what Yu Fei said. He had rich acting experience, and his image was somewhat similar to Zhang Dongsheng in his previous life, which completely matched the image of Zhang Dongsheng in Xu Nan's mind. .

Elegant, but perverted at the core.

"This actor is good, contact him for an audition." Xu Nan made the decision on the spot.

Yu Fei smiled bitterly: "It's difficult because this person has already withdrawn from the circle."

"Withdrawing from the circle?" Xu Nan frowned, that would be troublesome.

Yu Fei said helplessly: "This Qin Hao's family is quite rich, and acting is just a hobby. After winning awards and getting soft, he felt that there was no challenge anymore, so he quit the industry."

Xu Nan:.
Damn Ou Huang, so enviable.

Xu Nan looked at the other candidates and found that the conditions were acceptable, but perhaps due to preconceptions, the more he looked at Qin Hao, the more satisfied he became, and he always felt a little regretful if there was no candidate.

Xu Nan simply decided to try this person first, and if it didn't work, then find someone else.

"Do you know where Qin Hao lives?"

Yu Fei frowned: "I asked around, but he probably won't agree to act. In the past few years, many people have approached him, but they were all rejected."

Soon Yu Fei inquired about Qin Hao's residence. In fact, this was not a secret in the industry. The key question was whether Qin Hao could be invited to star.

I drove to Qin Hao's residence. It was indeed very luxurious and his family was very rich. Fortunately, Xu Nan had already been away from Wu Xia Amon, otherwise he would have shed tears of envy.

Yu Fei, who came together, helped Xu Nan with psychological training.

"Director Xu, Qin Hao is out of luck. He has withdrawn from the circle and doesn't care about things in the circle. You must be mentally prepared."

Xu Nan nodded.

After meeting Qin Hao, he got straight to the point.

"Hello, Mr. Qin Hao, it's like this. I have a TV series here that I want to invite you to star in. This is the script."

"This TV series is a masterpiece that I carefully created. I guarantee that the quality will not be much worse than "Hurious" at the beginning of the year. In terms of remuneration, I guarantee that it will be the best in the industry."

Knowing that Qin Hao was not short of money, Xu Nan showed his sincerity as soon as he came up and stood out as a courteous and virtuous corporal.

If Qin Hao still doesn't agree, then there is nothing he can do.

Qin Hao read the script first, and after watching only one episode, he slapped his thigh: "I played this role."

Yu Fei's eyes almost popped out of his head next to him.

Didn't it mean that Qin Hao had withdrawn from the industry? Didn't it mean that several directors came forward and were rejected?

Why did you agree directly?

Is this still the aloof actor rumored in the industry?

Xu Nan was also a little surprised: "You agree now?"

Qin Hao laughed at that time: "Director Xu, the reason why I quit the industry is because there are no challenging roles for me to play in the industry. Some ordinary roles are not interesting and I don't want to play them. I don't want to play them anyway." Lack of money.”

"But the role of Zhang Dongsheng is very good. I really wanted to play it after watching it."

"Besides, if a top director like you personally invites me, how can I refuse?"

Yu Fei was speechless. For such a simple reason, my previous foreshadowing was really in vain.

Qin Hao added: "It doesn't matter if the pay is a little lower. I'm not short of money, as long as the quality of the TV series is good."

"It doesn't matter. The crew is rich and the pay is absolutely top-notch."

Xu Nan didn't care why Qin Hao agreed, as long as he agreed.

After settling the casting of Zhang Dongsheng, Xu Nan was left scratching his head for several other roles.

As an actor, Zhang Dongsheng can still find several good candidates in the industry. Even if Qin Hao is not available, he can still find other people to audition, but they will be slightly worse.

But for the actor Zhu Chaoyang, Xu Nan was stunned that he didn’t even have a candidate.

The reason is simple: Zhu Chaoyang is too young.

In the script, he is only 14 years old and has just entered high school.

But the character Zhu Chaoyang is the absolute protagonist of the TV series and is extremely complicated.

The difficulty of interpretation does not need to be lower than Zhang Dongsheng's, it may even be a little higher.

In the previous life of "The Hidden Corner", many dark plots of the original work were deleted in order to pass the review.

The censorship in this world is much looser, so Xu Nan's version of "The Hidden Corner" is much darker than the previous life. Zhu Chaoyang is one of the masterminds behind the scenes and the only surviving protagonist of the show.

Such an actor is extremely difficult to perform, and even experienced actors may not be able to perform it, let alone a young actor who has not yet reached adulthood.

What makes Xu Nan even more crazy is that he wants to choose not only Zhu Chaoyang, but also Yan Liang, as well as the younger Pu Pu and Zhu Jingjing.

These roles are also very complex and require high acting skills.

There are four young actors. They have to have the right appearance and pass the acting skills at the same time. It’s really hard to choose.

Xu Nan even doubted whether anyone in the entertainment industry could meet the requirements.

"Hey, let's open the casting. Try to spread the news as widely as possible, let more people know the news, and select young actors who meet the requirements from as many actors as possible."

Xu Nan said helplessly.

With such high demands, we can only choose to cast a wider net to catch more fish.

I hope he can really catch the big fish he needs.
