This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 486 Sense of Crisis (asking for monthly ticket)
"Oh, you are so thoughtful." Aunt Liu sighed.

"But no matter what, acting skills are the foundation of life. An Xiaoxi can't play many roles. Most of them are simple roles that suit her characteristics. I wrote a spy movie script with two outstanding characters in it, but she can't play them."

Hao Yun was also helpless. When it came to the scripts given by the system, he would definitely give priority to his own people.

However, casting is not something that can be done casually.

Choosing an inappropriate person will not only fail to promote that person, but will make the person you want to promote become a laughing stock.

Moreover, the cost of doing projects in the entertainment industry can easily reach hundreds of millions, which is real money, and it is easy to lose everything.

"Hmph." An Xiaoxi snorted lightly, but did not refute.

She is not the kind of person who messes around.

Aunt Liu was also quite reasonable. She did not argue too much for her daughter. Instead, she patted her daughter gently and said:

"Xixi, you have to work harder."

"Student An Xiaoxi still has a lot of potential. You should observe and think more in the future. I might choose Zhou Xun as the leading female role. You should communicate with her more at that time." Hao Yun said.

It’s not that there is no one else who can play the role except Zhou Xun, but she is the one who has a good relationship with Hao Yun and has better acting skills.

Zhou Xun and An Xiaoxi are both people who are chased and fed by God.

The difference is that An Xiaoxi has good looks and temperament, while Zhou Xun has an aura that cannot be concealed when she is on camera.

"Zhou Xun's acting is really good. Xixi, you should learn more from her."

Aunt Liu was a little nervous.

There are very few female artists around Hao Yun. One of them, Zhang Jingying, is a professional singer. She has met Shu Chang, but they have not had any contact afterwards.

As long as there are resources, Xixi is always given priority.

Why are you suddenly thinking about Zhou Xun now?

She was somewhat resentful, but as a well-educated person, she knew that Hao Yun had no reason to use her daughter.

Her daughter was still heartlessly chewing the chestnuts sent by the villagers.

There is not even a hint of a sense of crisis.

The car whizzed along the county road, heading towards its next destination in the early autumn drizzle.

In four days, Hao Yun went to five places.

The fifth place is Quanshang Village.

As the name suggests, this is a place with springs everywhere, and the whole village seems to be built on springs.

There are many similar villages in Shandong.

The reason why Cao Dun chose this village as an alternative was mainly because its scenery was so beautiful.

It can be said that hundreds of springs shine and hundreds of mountains compete for beauty.

Clear, sweet water gurgles upward from the spring, forming streams that converge downward, with waterfalls and shallows, eventually forming a natural lake of hundreds of acres at the foot of the mountain.

In spring, the cherry and apricot trees in Quanshang Village are in full bloom, exuding fragrance, attracting countless bees and butterflies flying around, like a watercolor painting in which "thick and light strokes are always suitable."

According to villagers, when the rapeseed flowers, one of the main crops here, bloom, hundreds of acres of golden flowers gather together, creating a beautiful sight that no camera would miss.

In summer, the grass and trees are lush, the mountains and forests are cool, and the products are abundant.

There are also beautiful sights here that are rarely seen in other places - terraced fields, stacked up in layers and with different heights.

In autumn, a lot of corn is planted on the terraces.

When An Xiaoxi went to scout the location, she also tried to pick corn.

It is said that animals such as bears and wild boars would come down from the mountains to steal, and there have even been incidents of people being injured.

Winter is probably the most boring season.

The white snow will cover everything here, and even the surface of the lake will be frozen thick enough for people to stand.

If you go to the mountains, you may be able to see some red fruits among the ice and snow.

The locals call it Zhuguo—but not the kind in cultivation novels.

It is a general term for different species. Some can be eaten, and can even be used as medicine or to make wine, but some cannot be eaten. Outsiders should not try it easily.

"Let's go here. We won't look at other places. The traffic is a bit bad and the residents live a bit scattered, but this is not a bad thing." After having lunch in the village, Hao Yun came to the lake. "We can build a road for the village. There are many rocks here and the soil is hard. It won't cost much to build it." Cao Dun wiped his sweat. It was still a little hot at noon.

"Is it so luxurious?" Hao Yun picked up the fishing rod, and a small fish jumped out of the water.

He grabbed it skillfully and threw it into the plastic basin.

He is an expert at fishing.

When I was young, my family was poor and couldn’t afford meat, so going to the river to catch fish was the only way to improve the food.

Use a small bamboo pole, pull some white line, bend the thumbtack into a fish hook shape, hang an earthworm on it, and you can catch a lot of small fish.

If there is not much water in the ditch, you can call a few friends to cut off a section of the ditch, then use a basin and bucket to scoop out the water from the cut section, and pick up big and small fish at will.

Take it home, get a beating, and then enjoy a delicious meal.

In less than half an hour, Hao Yun had caught six or seven fish.

Cao Dun's plastic basin was still empty. This man had typical air force attributes. He complained that the equipment was poor, but Hao Yun used the same bamboo pole as him.

"Let the village pay the lion's share and also provide the manpower. This village chief is quite smart. He should be able to see the benefits of building the road." Cao Dun had his eye on the villagers.

Many directors build film and television cities when shooting TV series and movies.

For example, when Zhang Jizhong was filming Tian Long Ba Bu, it was publicized that the crew invested over 700 million yuan to build a "Tian Long Ba Bu Film and Television City" covering an area of ​​350 acres in Dali, Yunnan, and invested over million yuan to build the "Yongkang Tian Long Ba Bu City" covering an area of ​​ acres in Jinhua, Zhejiang.

But in fact, the total investment of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" was only 3400 million yuan.

All the money was used for filming. The crew filmed for nearly five months, with more than 5 shots and nearly 3 scenes of various sizes. Where did the "hundreds of millions" or "tens of millions" come from to build two film and television cities?

Not only did Zhang Jizhong not have to pay any money, but he might even be able to make some money from it.

Anyway, 80% of his net worth is not earned normally as a producer.

"Okay, let's cooperate with the village to apply to the higher authorities." Hao Yun knew some of the ins and outs here. With such a project to increase political achievements, the county would definitely allocate money to build roads.

"If we hurry up, maybe we can shoot in the summer. It's still quite hot now. In this way, we can finish filming next spring." Cao Dun's main purpose was to save money.

He knew that the movie "Little Forest" had no external investment and was made with money paid by Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi alone.

Although a mini crew is enough, the time span is so long that it would cost at least three million to shoot it.

This does not include the pay of Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi.

It is not a problem for them to star in the movies they invested in for free, because the money stays in the family.

The director, screenwriter, and leading actor all don’t have to pay.

Oh, by the way, Hao Yun is also a music composer. If he produces a few songs, he can even save the money on the soundtrack.

I just don’t know if he can create music suitable for a movie like this.

"Forget it, there's no need to rush these two movies, just take your time shooting. We also need to build some scenery, I'll leave it to you." Hao Yun began to talk to Cao Dun about the requirements for building the scenery.

The main scene is actually the heroine's home.

Hao Yun had seen the house of the family at the head of the village. The main house was okay, as it was built of rocks, but it was not beautiful enough and the layout of the courtyard also had problems.

There is no obstacle in building scenery on the basis of someone else's house.

That is the home of the village chief's second uncle. He very much supports the crew to come to the village to film, and after the renovation, the courtyard will definitely be more beautiful. If the crew is not satisfied, they will restore it.

Besides, the filming process will provide a lot of job opportunities in the village.

Even setting up the scenery has to be done by the villagers.

Hao Yun was born in the countryside and knew how to deal with the villagers. As long as he could control the officials and the prestigious people and create some benefits for the villagers, they would be as simple and honest as they wanted.

Of course, Hao Yun's clear knowledge and his unwillingness to give others the opportunity to cheat him also played an important role.

If you are really stupid and rich, people won't mind bullying you until you lose everything.

"Don't worry, the village said they can provide our crew with 20 acres of land for free. Can An Xiaoxi farm it?" Cao Dun is not from the countryside, so he has no feelings about farming.

Hao Yun was speechless. He even wanted to pick up a big rock and hit this guy.

Hit him on the head.

You asked her to farm twenty acres of land. Do you intend to tire her to death?
I'm exhausted from farming these twenty acres of land with her. Do you think these twenty acres of land are a vegetable garden?
