Chinese Entertainment: Academic Director

Chapter 6 Preparation Completed
After sending Li Xiaoran to Ludong Island to experience life there, Cao Yang felt relieved. The remaining supporting roles were not that difficult to find.

The highlight of this movie lies in the heroine. As for the other supporting roles, it doesn't matter who plays them as long as they are of the right age. To this movie, they are just symbols.

Among the three main supporting male roles, the role of the extramarital affair director was given to Lao Tian, ​​and one of the remaining two was given to Sun Honglei.

Sun Honglei is still an unknown figure in the film and television industry. The reason why he was able to join the crew was because Ding Jiali was going to play one of the supporting actresses, and the condition was that Sun Honglei had to be given a role.

She is so good to her young boyfriend. She worries a lot about his career, begs people for help humbly, looks for resources everywhere, and even lowers her own status and is willing to play a supporting role.

All I can say is that Sun Honglei is very charming.

The last supporting actor role was given to Wang Jinsong, a teacher from the Department of Acting.

Teacher Wang’s acting is very good, especially the part where he “pulls out the rubber band and hits your glass”, which has always been a timeless famous scene.

It’s quite interesting to say, at that time Cao Yang went to the Performance Department to find Huang Lei and wanted to invite Milk Tea Liu and asked Huang Lei to convey his message, and Wang Jinsong happened to be there too.

Upon learning that Cao Yang was going to make a movie, Wang Jinsong and Huang Lei both expressed their support and told Cao Yang that if the role was suitable, he must give priority to students from the school's acting department. Teacher Wang even joked that he might as well keep a role for him.

A few days ago, Cao Yang met Wang Jinsong and talked about it. Unexpectedly, he agreed immediately and expressed his support with practical actions.

He always does what he says and never plays tricks. He is truly a role model for others.

Unlike some teachers who only know how to create a personal image and think they are very good at dealing with people.

Among the three main female supporting roles, one is given to the coal boss's mistress, who plays the girlfriend of the friend in the cafe. The requirements for this role are not high, and you can just act freely. It is not the highlight and is easy to act.

To be honest, the coal boss has a pretty good taste. She has a curvy figure, youthful beauty, and a face full of collagen, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Ding Jiali plays the heroine’s friend abroad, and has a lot of rival scenes with the heroine. I hope he doesn’t beat Li Xiaoran in the end.

In fact, there is no need to worry. This role does not have much room for development. It is equivalent to an NPC who talks to the protagonist. As long as Li Xiaoran experiences life and gets into the state a little bit, it is unlikely that her acting skills will overwhelm the protagonist.

What's more, Cao Yang has an immersion experience in his hand, which he can pass on to Li Xiaoran. Although he doesn't know what the effect will be, it will always be of some use.

Cao Yang considered giving the role of another close friend who kisses the heroine in the play to Yu Feihong. She had agreed to make a cameo appearance and could be given about ten days. There was more than enough time for just those two scenes.

Just thinking about the scene of two beauties who look somewhat similar, both cool and intellectual, kissing and acting coquettishly, it feels great.

For other roles that only have one or two lines or no lines, we look for students from Beijing Film Academy. As a Beijing Film Academy student, it is our duty to support it. We cannot follow the example of our predecessors who went to the Central Academy of Drama at every turn without any sense of self-awareness.

How great it is that I can also complete the students’ teaching practice at the same time.

At that time, we can find more students to serve as assistants in the crew. Each position will be equipped with a student assistant, with food and accommodation fully covered. Then, wouldn’t the teaching practice tasks be completed in excess?

As for why the leading actress is not from Beijing Film Academy?
Cao Yang can say with confidence that he had initially invited Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei. What can he do if they don't come to be the heroine?
Aren’t they from Beijing Film Academy?
The first thing that came to my mind was Beijing Film Academy. This is the awareness of being a director of Beijing Film Academy.

Unlike the national master Yimou, his heroines, whether Gong Li or Zhang Ziyi, are all from the Central Academy of Drama.

Unlike Lao Tian, ​​his leading actresses Xu Fan and Lv Liping are also from the Central Academy of Drama.

The actors have been found, the staff can be in place at any time, the script has been sent for filing, the receipt will be received soon, the location has also been negotiated, and all that’s left is for the leading actress to get into the right state, so we can start filming at any time.

Li Xiaoran's recent life was... well, it was very comfortable at the beginning.

Sunshine, beaches, big villas, no worries about food and drink, and classic movies to watch every day. When you are tired, you can listen to music, look at the sea, and stroll on the beach. It is truly a fairy-tale life.

During those few days at the dock, she truly felt that life was so beautiful.

Except for some waste paper.

The romances in these movies start out as sweet as they can, but end up as heartbreaking as they can be. I really want to send a razor blade to that bastard director.

As time went by, I watched more and more heart-wrenching movies and listened to more and more sad love songs. I was alone in such a big villa, and loneliness began to haunt my heart.

Watch movies, cry, listen to music, feel sad.

Walking on the beach, feeling the cold autumn wind, the lonely sunset, and the sad and desolate atmosphere lingering around, Li Xiaoran felt that such a life was not so beautiful.

This went on day after day. She didn't know how many days had passed. Every day she was in a daze, full of wild thoughts and sentimentality.

One thinks alone, one walks alone, one laughs alone, one cries alone, one is sad alone, one talks to oneself alone, one hums and sings alone, and one waits for the moon to set and the sun to rise alone.

Suddenly one day, Li Xiaoran couldn't help but wonder, has this world abandoned me? Why am I so lonely and sad?
Cao Yang arrived, and when he saw Li Xiaoran walking on the beach for the first time, he knew it was almost done.

He couldn't think of how to describe Li Xiaoran at this moment, isolated from the world? Maybe.

This was Cao Yang's second visit. Although the last visit was somewhat interesting, it still felt a little lacking. So he began to explain the play to Li Xiaoran, telling her what the story was, the tragic experience of the heroine, the scumbag director's promiscuous love, and the pressure of the world...

After Li Xiaoran fully understood the story and Cao Yang left, the film could move forward.

So I went back to school to gather the crew and hold a meeting to discuss the filming details. I also gathered all the actors except the leading actress to read the script together so that everyone could get familiar with the story and their colleagues.

More than half a month later, the shooting details had been finalized, and the 4MM Kodak film, each roll of which could shoot for 35 minutes, had also arrived. A total of 125 rolls were purchased, at a ratio of 5:1 for the shooting.

Cao Yang estimated that Li Xiaoran should be ready, so he took the crew and set off for Ludong Island.

Fortunately, I came, otherwise if I waited another month, I might really get depressed.

"Xiao Ran?"

Cao Yang raised his hand and greeted.

At the edge of the endless blue, Li Xiaoran, wearing a white sleeveless dress with a khaki windbreaker on the outside, quietly blended into the tranquil beach.

She smoothed her long hair that was messed up by the sea breeze, took out a pair of headphones, looked at Cao Yang in a trance for a moment, then smiled stiffly.

Pale skin, red eye circles, haggard face, tired expression, and messy long hair - what a sad and beautiful picture.

"It's done!"

Cao Yang couldn't hide his excitement and immediately called to inform everyone, "Everyone get ready, shooting will start tomorrow!"
Then he thought about it and turned on the system.
