The project establishment of a movie is much simpler in China than in Hollywood.

Of course, this is also different in the national conditions. Every company in Hollywood has an audit mechanism. Generally speaking, Hollywood rarely uses scripts for newcomers.

If the other party is a gold medal producer, they may not even need to have any scripts. They only need to have an idea to make the film manufacturers pay great attention to it. However, if they are an ordinary director, it is extremely difficult to do a project.

In fact, although there are some differences in this regard in China, there are also similarities.

For example, if it is Xu Cang himself, if he wants to film a TV series, he only needs to have an idea and even start investing. However, if it is a movie, if it is a investment, he has to make a complete plan, including which actors to invite, where the selling points are, etc.

But Wang Yifan is different. Although he has not yet produced a script and only has one song, as long as the Times Light and Shadow knows it, he will immediately start promoting this project.

This is also because the project initiator is Wang Yifan and the director is Xu Cang.

Of course, if it is Wang Yifan's own movie, it will not be so troublesome. Even as long as Wang Yifan speaks, there is basically a certain amount of investment. Even if Times Light and Shadow are now in conflict with Wang Yifan, it will definitely be approved as soon as possible.

Wang Yifan thought of Xu Cang's characteristics in the project "Silk Story". You can say that the credit is that Wang Yifan's script story is good, or that actors Li Junsheng and Chen Xuebing have strong appeal. However, it is undeniable that Xu Cang's control over costume dramas is indeed very good. It can be said that he is a lightweight person. Otherwise, he would not have finished filming such a drama in such a short time.

Of course, at present, it can be said that the actors are not decided and the script is not available, but no one will underestimate this project that still exists in the idea.

The script outline is actually nothing new, and the plot is very simple. To put it bluntly, you can't make the plots of movies these days too complicated, otherwise the risk will be greater.

"Silk-Take" is a romantic film dressed in a magical romance.

Whether Wang Yifan or Xu Cang understands this truth. Of course, your movie must not be the only selling point, but you also need other selling points.

As the name suggests, "Silk-Take Show" tells the story of a puppet show and a puppet show.

Therefore, this aspect naturally becomes a selling point.

Of course, the design of this puppet must not be conventional and it must require a certain amount of artistic processing.

Because this is not a horror movie, but a romance movie. Whether it is poignant or sweet, the puppet must be beautiful.

Xu Cang's movements were very fast. Before the project was confirmed, he went to find some old craftsmen to learn about some of the situations in the puppet show.

When Xu Cang came back, when he saw Wang Yifan again, he brought many key props for the puppet show, "Puppet with a thread"!

"These are all thread lifting puppets I bought from puppet show craftsmen." Xu Cang said.

Wang Yifan also checked it carefully, but soon he shook his head and said, "Although the movie is based on reality, it must be separated from reality, especially for movies like "Silk Story". These traditional style puppets are definitely not suitable."

Xu Cang nodded and said, "This is for sure. I have some preliminary idea. The heroine of "The Story of Silk" must be a puppet, but this puppet must be a puppet person that is fake and real."

"This is the issue you, the director, need to consider. I only have one requirement, that is, the puppet show in "Silk Show" must be amazing enough, but it cannot be too far from reality. It can be lifelike, but it cannot give people a terrifying feeling." Wang Yifan thought for a while and said.

Many times, most of the puppets in movies appear in horror movies, giving people a strange feeling, but "Silk Story" must not be like this, otherwise, it would probably scare away a lot of people.

The project of "Silk Play" is not in a hurry yet, and this will be Xu Cang's project, so Wang Yifan is more about making suggestions, and Xu Cang needs to do the specific things himself.

His new film has been decided.

When filming a costume drama, I will film the story behind "Fireworks are easy to cool".

Unlike "Silk Story", this film definitely does not involve anything supernatural. There are no immortals or demons, and it is a traditional costume drama.

Moreover, it also involves history, during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. In this regard, Wang Yifan must find a professional to provide guidance on this aspect.

Of course, these are not problems for Wang Yifan now.

However, this film has relatively high requirements for the male and female protagonists.

The male protagonist is not only handsome, but also tough, and his temperament is rough. Moreover, the film will definitely involve many action fighting and war scenes, so it is difficult to choose this male protagonist.

Originally, the person Wang Yifan wanted was Li Junsheng, but afterwards, he gave up.

Because Li Junsheng is handsome enough, but in terms of temperament, Wang Yifan has seen Li Junsheng play roles in TV series before, and he rarely plays roles like generals.

Overall, Li Junsheng's temperament is a little softer, not that kind of "tough guy".

Among the candidates who have worked with Wang Yifan, Chen Bu is more suitable than Li Junsheng. Unfortunately, Chen Bu. To be honest, he is not handsome enough.

"Chen Dahua?" Wang Yifan was stunned when he heard Chen Hanming recommending Chen Dahua.

"But, will Chen Dahua be too old? After all, the male lead in this film will start as a young man, Chen Dahua..." Wang Yifan hesitated a little.

Chen Dahua has a wide range of acting careers. Although he is not an action star in the traditional sense, this aspect is not a problem for Chen Dahua. He has played roles like a general, and the acting skills of the actors are not casually mentioned.

And it has enough status, but the problem is age.

"Chan Dahua is called the immortal king of Hong Kong Island. In fact, his youthful appearance is not bad." Chen Hanming said with a smile.

"You can make an alternative first!" Wang Yifan thought for a while and said.

"Let's do this, conduct an internal audition. Anyone who meets the requirements can be notified. At that time, let's see the effect of the audition with makeup." Wang Yifan thought for a while and added.

"Yes!" Chen Hanming nodded.

"Where is the light and shadow of the times?" Chen Hanming asked again.

Wang Yifan shook his head and said, "Don't worry about them, this is my movie!"

The reason why Chen Hanming asked this question was that the Shi Guangying also recommended the candidates for the male and female protagonists, but Wang Yifan immediately PASSed.
