MTL - Hollywood Lover-Chapter 544 Midas touch
Possesses a rock **** voice that I didn't expect, and has an unparalleled sense of film, but God also took away my acting ability in front of the camera, and became a person who can't even act well when facing the camera. A director who wants to laugh at everything, has become a man who can't learn any dance except twisting his body casually. At the ball, he can only watch others dance with envy...
Hey, can you say that God is too fair? Why stop being partial to yourself?
Well, Zhang Dongcheng had no choice but to give up "Dancing Out of My Life", so he chose "High School Musical" with more jazz dance and mixed dance.
Looking at the youthful and beautiful Laticia in front of him, especially the appearance of Laticia who is better than the original heroine Vanessa Hudgens, Zhang Dongcheng smiled slightly.
Vanessa Hudgens is only 12 years old now. In the original time and space, she starred in High School Musical at the age of 18. Now she naturally cannot play the leading role of a high school student, and Laticia, who was born in 1981, is now 19 years old. , just happened to be the age of high school students!
Look at Laticia's appearance again. This little Spanish beauty is like a small strawberry washed with clear water. No matter from which angle you look at it, any man will feel like eating her. It was the first time that the refreshing breeze blowing in after a summer dance, and the bright eyes and red lips made people's heart throbbing for the first time.
Let her play the leading role, no problem at all.
"Okay, okay, I admit that you can really talk, I suddenly became interested in this movie... So, what should I play?" Megan Fox is not reserved at all, let alone like other girls, she always She could have climbed onto Zhang Dongcheng's body, put her arms around his neck, and easily lifted his butt, but looked at Zhang Dongcheng helplessly with a coquettish smile.
It's not that the age of fourteen made the law an iron prison, but that Zhang Dongcheng still set up some obstacles for himself in his heart. The fourteen-year-old Megan Fox looks like an eighteen-year-old girl, with a hot figure and a hot personality, **** Incomparable... But she is only fourteen years old.
Well, this is completely invisible on camera, Jang Dong Sung gave her the role of the second heroine, the blonde beauty played by Ashley Tisdale in the original time and space.
Megan Fox pouted. Of course she didn't want to play the second female lead, but when she saw Laticia and Zhang Dongcheng kissing, she suddenly sighed in her heart. She knew that she would definitely not be able to compete with Laticia.
Smith Zhang is different from others, he doesn’t like things that he hasn’t tasted yet, but he likes them more. He is better for girls who have committed themselves, whether they want money or status, he can easily satisfy them.
For a girl like myself who has not yet been eaten by him, it is the best to be the second female number one. The men's style of liking the new and loathing the old is not reflected in Zhang Dongcheng, but on the contrary.
Megan wanted to be Jang Dong-seong's woman countless times, but she couldn't help it because of her age, hey, she could only wait...can only suffer.
At this moment, she wished she could grow up quickly and be sixteen years old, so that she could justifiably become the woman that Smith and Zhang ate, and she could also become the object of much attention in Hollywood!
But what Zhang Dongcheng decides will never change. Megan understands this very well. Right now, it is time to play the role he gave her well and accumulate experience.
Megan Fox, who was a little sad, and Laticia, who was lingering with Zhang Dongcheng, never thought that their fate would be changed so easily by a movie, a movie that Zhang Dongcheng helped them choose.
Soaring into the sky, not just talking.
Venting those desires on Laticia, looking at her in a deep sleep, Zhang Dongcheng lovingly helped her put the hair scattered on her beautiful cheeks behind her ears, Zhang Dongcheng got up, put on a pajamas and came to the study.
Although the most important heroine has been determined, there is another very important role, but there is no one on hand at the moment.
That is the actor played by Zac Efron in the original time and space, the captain of the Wildcats.
Zac Efron is good-looking, good at singing and dancing, he is a typical American boy, his sunny appearance is unforgettable, the only thing is that he is a little short... This is too inconsistent with his identity as the captain of the basketball team.
Zac Efron is 1.75 meters tall, he can pass the test in China, but this is the United States...
In the original version, the height of Vanessa Hudgens is also extremely miserable, only 1.55 meters. The height of these two people in the American entertainment industry is very problematic, but they can become a hit. People can't help but lament the opportunity and fate It's that important.
Vanessa Hudgens, who is 1.55 meters tall, and Zac Efron, who is 1.75 meters tall, are naturally very harmonious on the camera, but although Laticia is a Spanish beauty, her figure is not as common as that of European and American girls. He is tall and big, but he is also 1.65 meters tall. Of course, Zac Efron is not tall enough at 1.75 meters.
And there is another point, that is the most important thing, Zac Efron was born in 1987, and now his sister is only twelve years old!
Well, I have to find an actor, he must be sunny, full of athleticism, handsome enough to make all the girls scream, able to sing and dance, well, at least able to dance, singing can be solved through post-production, huh, that's it Simple!
The script of High School Musical was very simple, and Zhang Dongcheng could finish it in two hours.
Two seemingly unrelated high school students-Troy Burton, the captain of the school basketball team, and Gary Bueramantis, a shy, high-achieving freshman, were originally people from two different worlds. During the karaoke competition, the two discovered that they both love singing very much. After the holiday, they even found out that they were studying in the same school! So Troy and Gary Buela plan to audition, hoping to become the hero and heroine of the school's latest musical. Gary Buela's new friend Tyler McCarthy and Troy's friend and supporter Charlie Danforth both expressed disapproval after hearing the news. Charlie didn't want to see his basketball idol on stage, and Taylor worried that he would lead the team. The academic competition team will lose an important player. Sharpay Evans, always the star of the school musical
and Ryan Evans were also worried that their status in the school would be shaken, so together with Taylor and Chad, they tried their best to prevent Troy and Gary Buela from becoming the protagonists of the musical. Even so, Troy and Garibuela did not give up because of this. Instead, they pursued their dreams more actively, which also affected other students to show others their talents that they had been hiding all along.
The next day, Zhang Dongcheng, who was in high spirits, came to his company, Dongcheng Films.
With a new movie, there will be a new goal. Zhang Dongcheng has rested for two full months this time, and it is already January 2001.
It will be awards season again soon, and Jang Dong-seong will be busy again. This time his Lord of the Rings will come with thunderous momentum, and Oscar will also be shocked by it.
So the matter of "High School Musical" should be done before the awards season.
Now looking for actors, it is no longer necessary to search for needles in the sea like before. Zhang Dongcheng has his own actor training class, and there are countless actors with great potential who have received the best training to choose from.
As for the male lead, Zhang Dongcheng wants to find it himself, and the other supporting roles should be handed over to the assistant director. He doesn't have the energy to do those simple things.
"Boss, aren't you resting? Why did you suddenly come to the company again?" Yang Qi, who was brought to the United States from China by himself, greeted him quickly. He is now Adaman's deputy and has helped with many things. Zhang Dongcheng also has high expectations for him who has been in the United States for almost two years.
In the future, in order to develop the Chinese film market, Yang Qi must be sent back.
"Hehe, I have a new idea, so I came today to see if there is anyone I want in the training class." Zhang Dongcheng followed him with all his heart, even if he didn't know his identity at all, just relying on Following Yang Qi with a keen sense, Zhang Dongcheng naturally had nothing to hide.
"What? Boss, are you going to make a new movie? Haha, this is great!" Yang Qi was overjoyed. Originally, Zhang Dongcheng had already slowed down the shooting speed, but this time he didn't know why, just like he did at the beginning. Once you set foot in Hollywood, you start desperately.
"The investment in this movie is not big, about 20 million US dollars, but I want to create another trend through this movie, a trend that makes young people unable to stand up." Zhang Dongcheng snapped his fingers , said with a smile.
"Haha, I absolutely believe that, if the boss makes a move, it must be extraordinary!" Yang Qi licked his face and smiled, and flattered him.
"Let's go, go to the training class with me, I want to find a leading actor for this movie." Zhang Dongcheng stopped talking nonsense, and took the lead to leave.
The 23rd floor of Dongcheng Films, the entire floor is where special training classes are located. This entire floor of thousands of square meters has the most advanced teaching equipment in the world. Zhang Dongcheng has never relaxed in the area of education.
There were more than 40 people in this training class, and they all attended the class together, and when Zhang Dongcheng stepped onto the podium, everyone applauded frantically.
"Woohoo~~woohoo~!" Someone yelled happily and even blew a loud whistle. These actors who are full of hope and longing for the performance and the future looked at Zhang Dongcheng longingly, only feeling the pain in their hearts. The beating started to speed up.
Who is he in front of you? He is the hottest director in Hollywood right now, the super BOSS who has faintly become the head of the eight major film companies, the behind-the-scenes driving force of the TV station that has the highest ratings in the United States and has begun to expand globally, and he is in Hollywood. Smith Zhang who made people popular!
If you can leave more impressions in front of his eyes, let him remember his name a little bit, and make him nod and smile to himself, maybe the whole life will be completely different, completely different.
I'm sure, it will be different. One time Zhang Dongcheng came here with the intention of making someone soar into the sky. His eyes are like a magic touch that can see through anyone.
"Hi everyone, I'm Smith, Zhang Dongcheng." Zhang Dongcheng stood on the podium, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, but he spoke humbly, once again detonating the temperature of the entire classroom.
"I'm here this time to see everyone, and it also has the meaning of a surprise assessment. It's a test of whether I have been serious about everyone's study for so long, and whether I have made progress. Hehe, although it is an exam, everyone Don't be nervous, it doesn't serve any purpose." Although Zhang Dongcheng wanted to find a male lead suitable for High School Musical among the artists under his command, he didn't say so clearly, instead he comforted everyone that this is just a small exam, don't panic because of nervousness. Bad acting.
However, how could his words reassure the students? Although he said that he had no purpose, the students wanted to leave the deepest image in Zhang Dongcheng's heart. It is everyone's goal to make him remember himself.
So, what Zhang Dongcheng said lifted everyone's spirits, they all became tense, and their hearts beat even more loudly.
"OK, let's get started! Let's come in one by one according to the student number." Zhang Dongcheng smiled and walked into another classroom on his own.
Obviously, this is a one-on-one assessment, and the topics may be completely different.
"Well, let's go in according to the student number. Hurry up, everyone, don't waste Mr. Smith's precious time!" Yang Qi hurriedly used his now extremely fluent English, and asked everyone to meet Zhang Dongcheng alone in order.
Actors' auditions are divided into auditions and auditions.
Audition refers to those who have not actually participated in film and television performances, including students and graduates of performing arts, other types of entertainers and amateurs, etc. Effect, and a kind of shooting attempt activity. Since the audition is not for a certain play, but for all possible performing arts activities in the future, the personnel participating in the audition must be able to accept any artistically required shooting. If the interviewer refuses to shoot a certain scene, It is basically impossible to work in this industry through the audition process.
A trial play refers to when the director is preparing to shoot a certain play, when selecting the actors of this play, for a certain role in it, the selected actors are selected for a trial play. The trial play is only filmed according to the specific plot and the needs of the people in the play, or only the performance is tried without filming. The audition is generally carried out in conjunction with the play talk. The director first talks to the interviewer, and then the interviewer matches with other actors or with the director to try the play. The requirements for the audition process are exactly the same as the actual filming, and full preparation is required. It is not just a temporary performance, it must be done with real guns. After passing the audition, it is basically possible to determine whether the interviewer can play a certain role in this play.
This time, Zhang Dongcheng didn’t make an absolute distinction between an audition or an audition. The people who came to the interview were all the newcomers he trained in his film training class, and they all had great potential. , It can be used in the future or when other directors want to shoot a certain movie.
"Hello, this is the bus station in the heavy rain, you are waiting for your girlfriend here, please perform."
"You opened a pizza shop and your first customer came, come on, put on a show."
“Everyone compliments your boyfriend, please show it.”
One by one, Zhang Dongcheng randomly asked questions, then watched the interviewer's reaction, and then rated the interviewer in his mind.
First of all, it must be a boy. The heroine and the second female lead have been confirmed. Unless it is a new star with great potential, Zhang Dongcheng won't bother to take care of it too much. The assistant director will take care of it for him.
Secondly, the boy's appearance must be sunny and healthy, tall, and he looks like a basketball player or a rugby veteran. It would be best if he could be memorable at a glance.
Sitting on the director's throne, Zhang Dongcheng watched to his heart's content the strange performances of the interviewees, as well as their professionalism and quality.
The training class is indeed the top training class in the United States. Many people have left a deep impression on Zhang Dongcheng. It can be said that they will become a blockbuster sooner or later.
Ended the investigation of the whole class. Although Zhang Dongcheng didn't find a suitable candidate for the hero in his mind, he was very satisfied. Here are a few people who will be well-known in the future, and they are still very young.
But for the male lead of High School Musical, they seem to be short of something, just a tiny bit short of not being able to touch Zhang Dongcheng's heart.
After spending a pleasant afternoon with more than forty students, Zhang Dongcheng walked out, and Yang Qi, who was waiting outside and never leaving, immediately greeted him.
"Boss, do you like the one you like? I'll contact him right away." Yang Qi looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he asked Zhang Dongcheng in a low voice.
"Not yet. I don't know what's going on. Although some of them are good, they feel like they're just a little bit worse. Please help me contact the students from the previous training courses." Zhang Dongcheng shook his head, his face down. There was no sign of disappointment.
A role has its own spirit, sometimes it is the character who chooses the person, and sometimes it is the actor who chooses the role.
In Zhang Dongcheng's heart, of course the characters are picking people at this moment.
No matter who it is, as long as they play the sunny and handsome Captain of the Wildcats, they will be popular all over the United States. This is a popular role, and Zhang Dongcheng is extremely affirmed.
"Uh...boss, there is someone I don't know if I should recommend it to you..." Yang Qi who was on the side hesitated to speak.
"Oh, do you have someone to recommend to me? It's okay, even if it's a security guard, even if it's a food delivery person, it's fine." Zhang Dongcheng stopped, looked at Yang Qi who was a little confused, and said with a smile.
"No, no, he's not a security guard, he's not a food delivery guy, he's a professional actor, but, but you forgot about him..." Yang Qi has been in Dongcheng Pictures for almost two years, and he's very familiar with the place. Although he spends most of his time at school, whenever he has a little free time, he will return to work here.
The people in Dongcheng Films know his relationship with the chief boss Zhang Dongcheng, and naturally they help each other wholeheartedly, and many actors and students will deliberately befriend Zhang Dongcheng in order to build a relationship with Zhang Dongcheng.
