Chapter 584
Cao An's requirements for the actors in "Inception" are that they must be handsome and beautiful in addition to their acting skills.
When the leading actors walk out, they give people a feeling of thugs in suits and gentle beasts.
There is no ZZZQ and rainbow in the stars.
All casting needs to be based on the setting. If a character is transgender in the setting, then he should be a transgender.
But if not, then it must not be forced.
Moreover, both men and women have a pursuit of beauty, and Cao An must satisfy their pursuit.
Everyone has worked hard all day, so what's wrong with wanting to see a handsome man or a beautiful woman.
Cao An does not plan to choose the two main female characters outside, because there are not enough at home.
The first one is the wife of the male protagonist. Cao An labels her as mature, stubborn, and smart.
The second one is the dream builder newly recruited by the male protagonist's team. The labels in the movie are: genius, girl, and restrained.
So the characters released to the public this time are basically male characters.
Cao An's positioning of this movie is a global movie.
It is impossible to use only domestic actors in the selection of actors. The team of the protagonist is an international team.
In order to avoid some unnecessary domestic audits, Cao An also put the story in Hong Kong.
In this way, the protagonist can form an international team, which can be well explained, and some gray risks can also be avoided.
Cao An is familiar with Andy Lau in Hong Kong, so he called him to help coordinate some locations and shooting.
Of course, Cao An also wanted him to participate in his new movie.
Let him play the role of the pretender.
The pretender's duty in the team is to play other people in the dream, so the character is stable, experienced, and changeable.
The requirements for acting are actually not high, because the pretender is played by other people after pretending to be someone else.
Andy Lau has played many roles, and the temperament of being experienced and knowledgeable can be grasped.
"Thank you so much, Director Cao, don't worry, I will definitely play this role well."
Every role he has played with Fanxing is very famous, and it is the kind that will be written at the beginning of the resume.
After finishing the communication with Hua Zai.
Cao An sorted out the requirements for four roles and asked Xiao Ling to send them to Warner to let them select actors.
They are the outpost, agile, and calm.
The pharmacist, casual, and knowledgeable.
The target of the protagonist group, the heir of the industry of the international giant G.I.L., a son, noble.
The current boss of the international giant, who is very old, looks very different from the heir.
Warner is very supportive of Cao An's international movies.
The few movies he made recently are not very good, and the most profitable ones are the ones he cooperated with Fanxing.
If he produces it alone, he may have to consider the influence of some organizations, but they don't care about it at all.
He can say that he is a worker and put all the responsibility on Fanxing.
These organizations don't have the ability to go to the East to find Fanxing to make trouble.
After this incident, Xiao Ling sent a cooperation agreement to Dongbao.
Ask them to help find actors and discuss the distribution cooperation of "Inception".
He is a businessman, enthusiastic, cunning, and careful.
After some arrangements, the main role is left with the protagonist.
Cao An did not open the audition, just pick it directly.
So Cao An began to check the information of handsome uncle actors in China.
After all, the protagonist is set to be around 40 years old, with a son and a daughter.
Not only handsome but also capable of action scenes, after all, many difficult actions need to be performed during filming.
Without some training, you can't stick to it.
While Cao An was checking the actor's information, Xiaoling finished communicating with Warner Dongbao and handed over a project file from Fanxing Film and Television.
Cao An didn't care at first, after all, Fanxing Film and Television has many projects, and according to the company's rules and regulations, those with a higher participation share must go through him.
In most cases, Cao An passed directly.
But this time Cao An saw a familiar name.
It's a cooperation with Penguin.
Although it is a collaboration with Riot, the company behind the show, Riot is 100% owned by Penguin, so it has nothing to do with the collaboration with Penguin.
Riot commissioned the Stars Rongcheng Animation Studio to produce an animated series for them.
Fang Haoli has already agreed.
The Chinese name is: "The Battle of Two Cities", and the English name is: "Arcane".
I didn't expect to encounter a familiar series.
Cao An casually asked Xiaoling: "Is the Chinese theme song of this series "The Lone Hero"? "
"Boss, are you going to give Stars Music a question?"
Xiao Ling asked in confusion.
Hearing this, Cao An asked: "Who is responsible for the music of this drama?"
"It was given to us. Fanxing Music produced all the internal music of the animation, as well as the Chinese theme song. The English theme song was produced by the other party."
Well, it seems that without his intervention, the song "The Lone Warrior" would not be released.
Thinking of this, Cao An felt that some entertainment projects should be added to the children of our country.
It's not bad to sing "The Lone Warrior".
It's better than singing "Waaaaaaa".
Cao An took out "The Lone Warrior" which he wrote for Cao Li and Cao Yuan some time ago and handed it to Xiao Ling.
"I wrote a song when I was bored some time ago, and I feel it is quite suitable for this drama. You can take it to Lao Chen to have a look. If it is suitable, use it. If it is not suitable, let him record the music when he is free."
"Okay. "
Xiaoling took Cao An's music manuscript and signed documents and left.
When Chen Zhiyi took the music requirements of "The Battle of Two Cities" and Cao An's Lone Warrior music manuscript.
The whole person was stunned.
"Does the boss write songs so quickly?"
"No, this song was written by the boss when he was bored before. He thought it was suitable and let you take a look. If it is suitable, use it. If it is not suitable, he will find time to record the music. "
Xiaoling explained quickly.
"Oh, that's it. OK, I will record it for the boss within this month. ”
Although Cao An did not urge him, nor did he set a time limit.
But as an employee, you can't really wait until you are completely free to do it.
He immediately took the music manuscript of the Lone Warrior to copy it, and took a quick look on the way.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this song was not simple.
Both the music and the lyrics are different from the mainstream love songs on the market.
Nowadays, the popular songs on the Internet will not sing without love and pain.
Nine and a half out of ten songs are about love and heartbreak.
It's not that singing about love is bad, but there are too many, and it has reached the point of flooding.
Moreover, many songs are just pop songs, the music has no characteristics, it is just the application of classic paradigms, or just copying.
The lyrics also have no linguistic beauty.
Chen Zhiyi acted quickly, and recorded a first version of the music for this song in less than three days.
"Mr. Chen, who will sing this song? The requirements for the singer are quite high, and ordinary people can't sing it. "
A performer asked Chen Zhiyi.
This is indeed a problem. The boss can't just find someone to sing it perfunctorily.
Suddenly he thought of someone.
"Since it's a song written by the boss, of course the boss should sing it himself."
