Director’s Legend

The first time I met, to be honest, it was very plain. All of you here are the best in various industries and are very reserved.

The photographers are Huang Yuetai and Huang Jiahui of the three famous Wong brothers in Hong Kong, and Lu Le, the photographer of "Alive". These three big-name photographers each have their own styles. Erhuang doesn't have a fixed style, but he is good at creating a strange plot tension. Lu Le has excellent control of the big scene.

The art directors are Yang Zhenjian and Wang Rui. Yang Zhenjian is a well-known figure who is active in the internal film circle. He is known as a generalist and is particularly good at film review. Wang Rui is the director of Nortel’s director department and a master.

The art design invited Lei Chuxiong and Liu Jingping. Lei Chuxiong is the art designer of "A Thousand Chances" and a figure at the Hong Kong Awards. In comparison, Liu Jingping has a little bit of experience and only did art design in TV dramas, but Shao Shuaijun is very optimistic about him. He is the original art design of "Painted Skin".

The action director is Dong Wei, who has won the Hong Kong Film Awards three times for the best action director. The costume design is Wu Baoling, who is known as sister BOBO, who has won awards for Golden Horse and Golden Statue, and is a senior stylist. Lighting engineer Zou Lin, props designer Bao Yi, sound engineer Luke, dramatist Qi Wenwei, Chang Ji Qiqi, Pu Jiawei, and Su Yaocong are all senior staff.

Of course, these people are the heads of various departments. Once the crew is formally established, these people will bring their disciples and grandchildren to join them.

After a quiet banquet, Shao Shuaijun handed over the tidying of the staff to several deputy directors, and ran to participate in this year's Magic City Film Festival awards ceremony as a guest of honor. Originally, he didn't bother to participate, but after some things, he also understood that the so-called seniority is increased by exposure.

You are only eligible to award awards if you have been recognized by others.

Shao Shuaijun is going to present the best actress award, which is a great affirmation. If it were not for the most popular figure this year, he would never be invited. It's just a pity that "Source Code" is such a classic, but it has not been affirmed at all, and it has not been nominated for any Mordu Film Festival.

For the sake of international style and literary style, the Magic City Film Festival almost abandons the Chinese.

As usual, the red carpet is arranged by the program group for Shao Shuaijun, Zhao Wei. This surprised Shao Shuaijun. It was a coincidence that he was about to find Zhao Wei to play the role of Pei Rong in "Painted Skin".

"Hello, Director Shao." Zhao Wei Luoluo greeted generously.

"Hello." Shao Shuaijun nodded, and asked randomly, "Zhao Wei, are you free for the latest schedule? I want to find you to film."

"Look for me?" Zhao Wei was surprised.

"Of course, I watched your performance in "Lover Knot". It was wonderful. Since you were a little swallow, your acting skills have improved greatly. Have you heard of my new movie "Painted Skin"? There are three protagonists in it, of which I like you very much for the role of Pei Rong, do you have a schedule? It will take a long time, and it may take more than half a year to shoot."

If possible, Shao Shuaijun does not want to change too many roles. Plagiarism would make him feel guilty, and it would ruin the opportunities of these actors and make him more uneasy. If possible, he will try to use the original team.

"Of course I am willing. Thank you, Director Shao. I will play this role with my heart." Zhao Weixi couldn't help himself. Since Xiao Yanzi became popular, her popularity has been very high, but it is also high and limited, mainly because there are not many high box office. The film's performance on the big screen was unsatisfactory, and it was once called box office poison.

After speaking, the two went on the red carpet. Suddenly the crowds on both sides began to shout, some shouting Xiao Yanzi, and some shouting Shao Shuaijun. The release of "Source Code" has brought countless popularity to Shao Shuaijun. The youngest director, the youngest director at the box office of 100 million yuan, the youngest king of the mainland, and so on, can't be said.

Of course, compared with Xiao Yanzi, Shao Shuaijun's popularity is not high, and he is really low-key.

Zhao Wei nodded occasionally while waving to the audience. Shao Shuaijun completely ignored the audience on the sidelines, and said to himself: "Looking back, I will send you a script. You will try to figure out the role of Pei Rong at home. My opinion is that Pei Rong is a hesitant but not confident. You must suppress yourself to be like a character."

"Ok, I see."

In a short while, I came to the end, accepted an interview and signed the Red Wall.

The host is a man, and Shao Shuaijun doesn't know him.

"Director Shao and Zhao Wei, please come here. As usual, we will interview both of them. Director Shao, who do you think can get the best actress award today?"

Shao Shuaijun said directly: "Zhao Wei."

"Why are you so optimistic about Zhao Wei?"

"It's very simple, because Zhao Wei is next to me, do you want me to talk about others?"

"Um, it seems to be the case, that's good, Zhao Wei, are you confident about winning the prize today? I feel you are in a very happy mood now?"

Zhao smiled and said: "After hearing the words of director Shao Shuaijun, I think I have great hopes today. He is an expert and he must be very accurate."

Shao Shuaijun immediately explained: "I'm sorry, I like to talk nonsense with my eyes open, you should not take it seriously."

"Haha, thank you both, please sign on the red wall."

Signed, entered, and then the award ceremony began. As a result, Zhao Wei lived up to expectations and won the best actress award. Later, Shao Shuaijun was awarded the Best Director Award. The winner was a foreigner. Shao Shuaijun almost missed his name. When the director came on stage to receive the award, Shao Shuaijun wanted to compliment him, but his crappy accent, the other party did not understand.

After attending the Magic City Film Festival, Shao Shuaijun rushed back to the capital overnight and continued to discuss the preparation of the crew with a group of producers and associate directors. The staff is complete and the cast is now missing.

"Several leading actors, I have a candidate in my heart. Wang Sheng handed it to Chen Kun, Pei Rong handed it to Zhao Wei, Xiao Wei handed it to Zhou Xun, Pang Yong can find the real bullet, Xia Bing handed it to Sun Li." Shao Shuaijun In order to make arrangements, as a director, he only needs to determine the starring lineup, and leave the other actors to others to assign, including Xiao Yi, a heavy role.

After finishing speaking, Gao Linbao coughed: "Director Shao, Chen Kun's reputation is a little less, in fact, I think Xie Tingfeng is very suitable for the role of Wang Sheng. Would you like to think about it?"

"No, I used Chen Kun as a reference when setting Wang Sheng. Moreover, the gimmick of painting skin is enough, no superstar is needed to increase the appeal, I only want the most suitable actor." Shao Shuaijun frowned.

"You are the director, listen to you." Gao Linbao shrugged.

As soon as Gao Linbao finished speaking, Huang Qunfei said with a smile: "In fact, I think Xie Tingfeng is more suitable for Wang Sheng's role than Chen Kun. Chen Kun's play path is too narrow, I am afraid that Wang Sheng's handsome and chic and heroic on the battlefield cannot be played. ."

Shao Shuaijun glanced at Huang Qunfei lightly: "Wang Sheng is Chen Kun. There is no doubt about this. Let's discuss the next topic."
