"Since I started filming, I have been thinking about a question, which is what criteria do producers, producers, and directors use to select actors?"

Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Xu Rong said: "I think it is value. A person can only be needed if he has a certain value. So the question is, what is the value of an actor?"

Yu Zhen asked tentatively: "Famousness!"

Xu Rong did not deny his answer directly, which is extremely taboo in persuading others, and said: "Let me give you an example, from the first four major students to last year's four major students, there are so many people, they

In the year you were elected, was your visibility low?”

"But in just three to five years, when you make one bad one, then another, and then another bad one, people will stop looking for you, and then slowly, your popularity will go down, so

I think the core of an actor’s value is not popularity.”

Zhu Xiaopeng, who played Zhou Chong, didn't seem to agree with it. Xu Rong did not continue talking. He paused and said: "There is a popular view at present. As long as the script is good, the drama will definitely have good ratings. I used to

I once filmed a movie called "New Shanghai Beach". Although the ratings were a mess, it was scolded a lot."

"Hahaha." Everyone sitting here seemed to have watched this play, and they burst out laughing in unison.

After the laughter subsided, Xu Rong continued: "But there is one person who has not been scolded from beginning to end, and is even called the most interesting character in the whole play. That is teacher Li Xuejian who plays Feng Jingyao."

"Let's go back to the issue of value. After the producers decided on the main cast, they already expected that the drama would definitely be criticized, so they had to find an actor who could carry the reputation. This is the value of an actor.

.”

"Some people also say that so-and-so is just a hype, and his business level is poor. Let's make a bet. Let's see again in ten years. And doesn't it cost money to hype? In fact, everyone should understand that, just

It's the public relations and media that spent it.

Money is far more than making a good movie. This is also value, but it is filled with real money. For specific individuals, if no one supports us and no one is willing to spend money on us, then this road is destined to follow us.

If it’s not related, you can only choose another one.”

"Any technology industry, when it reaches a certain level, has a certain degree of low substitutability or even irreplaceability. There is a saying that may not be appropriate in this situation, that is, you can use one piece of shit to replace another piece of shit.

But you can't replace a table of delicious food with a piece of shit. I understand the value of an actor to be like this. Once you achieve this, all that's left is to become famous and make a lot of money."

"For example, the audience was willing to buy Mr. Zheng's credit for the play we arranged, "Thunderstorm". This is also the reason why I came to Renyi, to accumulate my low replaceability and even irreplaceability. To be honest, after

If you want to learn something in this department, it will be imperfect and unsystematic, and the process of accumulation is to carefully polish every detail through our academy's unique skills and training methods based on what Teacher Yu calls ingenuity.

Until it becomes instinctive.”

Although the incident happened suddenly, Xu Rong closely focused on two points based on the speech method he learned from Hua Ming.

The first point is to start from needs. All of the people sitting here, except Pu Cunxi, are thinking about how to become famous and how to make a lot of money. His chicken soup is to serve this core need.

The second point is the nature of people to worship success. Among the examples he cited, Li Xuejian, Feng Yuanzheng, and Wu Gang are all people who have achieved certain achievements in the film and television industry. From another perspective, it is also survivor bias.

But this thing is simply the best ingredient for making chicken soup.

Pu Cunxi looked at the young people in the crew who had improved a lot after Xu Rong finished speaking. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised. He originally wanted Xu Rong to talk about his own experience, but he didn't expect that he had undergone surgery.

Something different.

In the evening, when Yu Zhen, Yu Mingjia and others dragged their tired bodies out of the theater and walked to the theater door, looking back at the lights on the third floor, Yu Zhen couldn't help but sigh: "I know why they became famous."

Although Xin Yue was tired, she was successfully fooled by Xu Rong. She raised her fist and said to Yu Zhen: "Come on."

Yu Zhen was stunned, and with a smile on Guozi's face that would not embarrass the other party or himself, he also raised his fist: "Come on, come on."

"Bye-Bye."

"See you tomorrow."

Pu Cunxi left Zhang Wankun and Xu Rong behind and held a small meeting on the third floor.

After several days of rehearsal, Pu Cunxi finally understood that the professional level of the three of them was significantly higher than the others.

And throughout the whole scene, one or more of the three will basically come on stage when other people are on the stage.

Pu Cunxi slumped in his chair, sipped his saliva, and said, "We still have to find a way to lead others."

Xu Rong said without thinking: "This is not realistic. The role of Fanyi is too important and cannot be brought out by others. She is also one of the core of this drama."

After Xu Rong finished speaking, the three fell into silence again.

After waiting for a long time, Zhang Wankun suddenly raised his head and said, "I have an immature idea."

Pu Cunxi looked at him and said, "Tell me about it."

Zhang Wankun looked at Pu Cunxi, then turned back and said, "Pu Yuan, if you act as Zhou Puyuan in reality, and Xu Ronglai acts as Zhou Ping in reality, can you bring Yu Mingjia and others into the role?"

"

Xu Rong and Pu Cunxi looked at each other. Not to mention, Zhang Wankun's method was really quite feasible.

Pu Cunxi is the vice president, so he can regard Renyi as his Zhou residence, and Xu Rong's status can also ensure that he plays the role of Zhou Ping.

But after just a brief thought, Xu Rong felt that it was not appropriate and asked: "Is there something wrong?"

"Teacher Xu, don't forget, we made a bet with Director Gu."

Pu Cunxi smiled and said: "Then it's settled. Let's see how I perform tomorrow. For the rest, the three of us will put in more effort. If possible, try to treat them with an attitude similar to the characters."

"good."

Xu Rong looked at Pu Cunxi and Zhang Wankun who settled the matter with each other, and could only sigh.
Chapter completed!
