That year Huayu

Lin Nan squeezed the audition time very tight, and spent another three days, from morning to night, to pass everyone.

Many of them don't need to audition, just chat briefly, not because they are not good, but because they are all excellent.

So many actors have auditioned, some are acquaintances, and some are chatting with them for the first time.

Zeng Li and Chen Minghao are old faces, and this time they also have Liu Ye, who just finished filming "The Golden Jacket" not long ago.

Not to mention Hu Jun, he is obviously a literary and opera actor, but he looks very masculine.

Zhang Hanyu, Zhang Yi, etc. also fit the image of astronauts.

In particular, the latter came from a military drama troupe and just came out of "Soldier Assault". His tough temperament as a soldier is very prominent.

"Senior Brother Chen, forget it this time..."

Lin Nan politely rejected Chen Minghao. Among the four male roles, he was not among Lin Nan's first considerations. If he was willing, he could be given one of the supporting roles on this side of the earth.

"Okay, as long as there is a role, I won't pick one."

"Okay, let's take the ground role. There are so many scientist roles, you can choose one first."

Chen Minghao's acting skills are second to none, and Lin Nan knows it well after having worked with him.

It is the role of the eldest sister that puts Lin Nan in trouble, Zeng Li, Yang Xue, Fan Bingbing, Qin Hailu...

Fan Bingbing was the first to brush it off. She was not the right age and too pretty. Yang Xue, movies are different from TV, and their priority is not high.

Lin Nan finally chose between Zeng Li and Qin Hailu, the latter being a powerful actress.

Jing Tian's matter was a problem, and Lin Nan had promised to help her find a solution. At worst, she would be given a supporting role on the ground, and the role of system operator should be kept for now.

Just in case something happens to Liu Yifei like a butterfly effect, Lin Nan will have to cover for her.

Liu Ye, Hu Jun, Zhang Yi, Zhang Hanyu, Huang Xiaoming.

Choosing three roles among the first four, including the protagonist, was Lin Nan's final consideration.

Zhang Yi had just finished his performance in "Soldier Assault" and could not play a leading role, so he could only play a supporting role.

"Hu Jun, Liu Ye? There should be a tacit understanding of this cooperation, right?"

Lin Nan was shocked by his thoughts.

"Lizi, you are two into one this time."

Chen Minghao chatted with Zeng Li in private.

"How did you know?"

"Director Lin decided to play a supporting role for me, and we chatted about it for a while."

"Shouldn't this kind of thing be kept secret? Why would I tell you?"

"Because the other one is sea dew."

Chen Minghao was a little speechless. Knowing this was not a good thing, but he still needed to talk to the two of them. It was better to know in advance than to meet them when the time came, and how embarrassing it would be at that time.

…

"Brother Hu, please sit down."

In Lin Nan's office, Hu Jun sat down with a smile.

"I'm trying it too, but I didn't expect it to come this far, haha."

"At that time, when I went to visit the cast of "Dragon", I saw him from a distance. He was so well acted, hero."

"Haha, you deserve the award. Are you sure it's me this time?" Hu Jun asked.

"Sure."

"Is it convenient to reveal the other actors?"

"Your teammates are Liu Ye, Huang Xiaoming, and Zhang Yi. Zhang Yi is from the army drama troupe." Lin Nan also explained specifically, fearing that Hu Jun wouldn't recognize them.

Seeing the other party, he thought for a moment and said, "Yezi, we are old acquaintances, have we made a decision?"

"Preparing to inform."

"Okay, I'll follow the director's arrangements, and I'll make sure to arrive on time for the subsequent training."

…

For most of the roles that last less than one or two minutes, Lin Nan plans to find people directly from Beijing Film Studio. Not only is it cheaper, but the key is that the acting skills are up to standard.

Huayi once again released news that the co-production film will have two male protagonists. Jet Li has been confirmed as one of the protagonists, and the film will be released globally.

The media is like a cat that has smelled something fishy, ​​and the entertainment industry seems to have dropped a depth bomb. This is the biggest piece of fat this year, no, in the past few years, bar none.

It is not difficult to guess that there are only a few actors who can be ranked as the leading actor with Li Lianjie.

"The media has been led astray by Huayi. They keep guessing about Hollywood male stars. Jet Li does not necessarily represent domestic actors."

Lin Nan and Han Sanping were talking and laughing.

"In spite of that, let's talk about this casting."

Lin Nan told all the candidates that had been decided so far and those that were yet to be decided. Han Sanping nodded in thought.

"How about using Zeng Li? Although Qin Hailu is a movie queen, this is a commercial science fiction film after all. Zeng Li already has "Time Cruise", so it will be more acceptable to the audience."

It's very interesting for two Nortel graduates to discuss which Chinese actor to choose.

"Well, that's the truth."

Lin Nan felt that what Han Sanping said made sense. This film was about hard-core science fiction and farming on Mars, and it didn't necessarily have to be an actor or actress. The focus was on box office.

When Lin Nan called Zeng Li, she was promoting "Liao Zhai" on Capital TV. She was the heroine of the "Painted Skin" unit. This drama had been screened in Shanghai and other places before, and had a good reputation.

"Okay, Director Lin, I'll come over when I have time. Well, thank you."

Huang Xiaoming, who was also backstage, heard Zeng Li's voice of "Director Lin" and was thoughtful.

Huayi and Feng Xiaogang announced a new movie, a war movie.

At the press conference, Feng Xiaogang tentatively named the new film "Assembly Number", but the media asked the most about the co-production film. After all, it cost 560 million.

Fortunately, Director Feng did not curse on the spot this time. Wang Zhonglei accepted questions from reporters.

“I definitely can’t reveal that much at the moment, but Jet Li has already decided, and it’s been decided since the birth of the project.

Actresses, especially heroines and supporting actresses, we screen across Asia, including Hong Kong, Taiwan and Mainland China, including Singapore and Malaysia. According to the rules, one of the main actors in this film must be from the mainland..."

Liu Yifei's Mandarin album has been named, and it is named after her, "Liu Yifei".

Release is set for the end of this month, with only three days left.

Early in the morning, Lin Nan's door was banged by shots. Yesterday, he and the confirmed starring actors had a dinner together so that everyone could meet each other. There would be a media meeting later, so he came back a little late.

At the door of the room, Liu Yifei had a pale face and no trace of blood on her lips, looking very panicked.

"What's wrong, Sissy?"

"They said, Hu, Hu Ge had a car accident last night, and his assistant is gone..."

Like a basin of cold water pouring down from the top of his head, Lin Nan's exhaustion disappeared instantly.

"Are you still here? It seems I forgot to remind you..."

Lin Nan thought with pain in her heart.

"Give me a moment while I change my clothes and go to the hospital."

Today, nearly one third of the portal website contains news about Hu Ge. The popular niche is almost among the most popular.

"Be careful on the road."

Liu Xiaoli reminded her daughter and Lin Nan.

"Mom, don't worry."

Liu Yifei grabbed two buns and said, Lin Nan hasn't had breakfast yet.

The two of them did not bring an assistant, so they took a bus to the Corps Hospital after flying to the city.

A large number of reporters and fans surrounded the headquarters hospital, and many relatives and friends came.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei saw Sun Li, Yuan Hong, Cai Yinong, Lin Yichen and others, as well as many actors and classmates from the "The Condor" crew.

"Director Lin, Yifei."

"Mr. Cai, how's it going?"

"The preliminary surgery has been completed and the person is awake. There may be several rounds of facial plastic surgery later..."

When he said this, Cai Yinong looked very depressed, and the actor had that face.

"Can we visit?"

"Yes, it's just that the face was severely traumatized by broken stone and glass, and the brow bone and nose bone were fractured. The person's life is not in danger."

Half of Hu Ge's face, including the bridge of his nose, was tightly wrapped in gauze, and he lay there lifelessly.

"Thank you for coming to see me. I probably won't be an actor in the future..."

Hu Ge spoke very slowly. After the anesthetic wears off, pain is inevitable.

"The doctor said it can be repaired, and surgeries abroad are also very good."

Yuan Hong comforted him.

"Don't say such depressing words." Lin Nan said.

"She's gone, she's still so young." Hu Ge's voice was deathly silent.

The mental trauma is more severe than the physical trauma, Hu Ge said to himself, completely ignoring everyone's comfort, immersed in pain and confusion alone.

"You will be fine. Let Lin Nan look for you to make movies in the future." Liu Yifei also wanted to comfort Hu Ge.

"Is it Yifei?"

Hu Ge said hard, "Well, I will persist and survive for her."

Lin Nan was deeply touched by this scene. When he was lying in the hospital waiting to die, he was more frustrated than this.

Cai Yinong was being interviewed outside, saying that he would not give up Hu Ge and that the Tang people would always wait for him.

The news of Hu Ge's disfigurement leaked out from the doctor's mouth, and there was a crazy discussion on the Internet. "Sword and Fairy" is still fresh in their minds, and a large number of fans cannot accept it.

Staying here can't help much. After Lin Nan stayed for two or three hours, he left with Liu Yifei. There were still a lot of things to do, but the photos of the two of them appearing in the hospital were published in the newspaper.

On the last day of August, "Liu Yifei" was officially released.

Lin Nan was preparing for the press conference at China Film Group Corporation, but listening to Liu Yifei's sweet laughter on the phone, she knew that the results that day should be very good.

Still at China Film and Television, the casting lineup for "The Martian" was revealed to the outside world for the first time.

Protagonist: Botanist, given to Chinese film actor Hu Jun.

The leader of the Mars team was given to Zeng Li, who was also the heroine of Lin Nan's last movie.

Spaceship pilot, Chinese film actor Liu Ye.

Chemist, Huang Xiaoming from Nortel.

Doctor in the group: Zhang Yi.

Space center project leader: Chen Minghao.

Director: Chen Baoguo.

…

All the main actors arrived at the scene, and of course Jing Tian was also there.

In this regard, a reporter asked, "Is the last female character in the group, the system operator, Jing Tian?"

Lin Nan shook his head.

"Not necessarily, this role has not been decided yet, it will be decided based on the results of training.

The main creators, including some supporting actors, will undergo training at the aerospace training center for a period of time.

This includes physical training, weightless training, etc. The spacesuit used for filming will also weigh dozens or even nearly a hundred kilograms..."

At the end of the press conference, the lineup of actors sparked a big discussion.

"The cast of "The Martian," which started with a cost of 300 million, has been confirmed, with many talented actors participating."

"Hu Jun and Liu Ye will work together again, and the two movie kings will be able to carry the weight."

"Chinese actors Bao Yuan won the drama "The Martian"..."

"Why did amateur actor Jing Tian join the crew of "Mars"? Is there a behind-the-scenes deal?"

In any case, Lin Nan's film is indeed much more open and bright than Hua Yi's co-production. He does what he says, is very efficient, and there are many convincing and capable actors.

Liu Yifei saw the report of the press conference and was a little unhappy.
