After reading the list of candidates for the first protagonist provided by Zhao Jiadong, Li Xiangping was a little surprised. The information on the top was that of Master Huang Xiaoming, the second, the ex-husband of the princess, and Li Yapeng, who was called the soft-fried man by many people in the future, and the third, Chen Kun...

Damn it seems that these are the most popular people these days. Even Li Xiangping, who doesn’t pay much attention to the film and television industry, can now see news about these people in the media every day.

Seeing Li Xiangping searching for information, Zhao Jiadong smiled and said, "Xiangping, how about it? Are you still satisfied with the people that Uncle Zhao is preparing to find?"

"This, these people are so popular, can they act in a Go drama?"

Zhao Jiadong waved his hand casually, looking like he was not worried at all: "I won't discuss whether I can invite people today. Just talking about whether it's appropriate. Come, Mr. Wang, Director Qiu, haha."

Speaking of this, Zhao Jiadong smiled and nodded at the leader of Lao Nie and Hua: "There are also several experts in the Go world. Let's discuss and see which one is the most suitable one. By the way, let's discuss Shi Xiangxia's candidate first, because in this drama, we follow Xiangping's suggestions and focus on Shi Xiangxia's main perspective. In other words, he is the first protagonist in the whole drama. Let's discuss him first, and then determine Fan Xiping's candidate."

Seeing Zhao Jiadong's occasional "domineering leak", Li Xiangping also felt that his worry just now was a bit stupid. Who is Zhao Jiadong? It is no exaggeration to say that he is the small group of people standing at the top of the food chain in the entire entertainment industry. To give a very simple example, when later generations mentioned whether a certain star is popular, people often say this: Well, XXXXXX is very popular now, and he has obtained a lot of film and television resources.

That’s right, whether a star can “get resources” or not is a very hard-core indicator, but Zhao Jiadong is the small group of people who can “provide resources”.

In particular, the resources he provides are quite high-quality, such as the drama "Great Master", which has not started filming and has been scheduled to be broadcast on CCTV One. Therefore, he and those popular stars are actually in two classes.

If he considered that he was not short of money now and had already raised funds early, it seemed that he was really qualified to be domineering.

After figuring this joint, Li Xiangping stopped worrying about anything else and began to concentrate on thinking about the problem of the actor who played the plug-in.

It’s a pity that he is very sorry. Although he is very concerned about this "big power player" and is still yelling that the actor who plays Lao Shi must agree, but if he really asks him to give some specific opinions, he, as an outsider, can’t really come up with it.

For example, take Master Huang Xiaoming as an example, is it appropriate to let him play Lao Shi? Li Xiangping can't say it?

If it is good, what is the best? If it is not suitable, what is the specific place that is not suitable? Li Xiangping couldn't say it.

Also, if you think he is not suitable, then do you personally think it is the most suitable? Of course, Li Xiangping can't say it either.

It was precisely because he couldn't say anything that when Zhao Jiadong asked him for his opinion, Li Xiangping was a little stunned at the time.

In desperation, Li Xiangping had to directly use the method of diverting his sight. He turned his eyes to Lao Nie and pretended to respect him very much:

"Haha, what do you think? Who do you think will be the best to play Shi Xiangxia?"

Old Nie was not fooled by Li Xiangping this time: "Haha, ask me? I haven't even read the script, I don't know what the story is. You guys talk first, you guys talk first. Team leader Hua and I came here this time, just to show our attitude in the Go world. We support making such a TV series. Come on, let me read the script first and then talk about it..."

After saying that, Old Nie Ruo started to read the script without anyone else.

Li Xiangping had no choice but to turn his attention to Team Hua, who smiled:

"I only learned about this yesterday, so my attitude is the same as Lao Nie. I have no say at all. But what are you anxious about Xiangping? The so-called profession is specialized. We are experts in playing Go, but there are so many experts here in film and television dramas. I think we should listen to the experts first."

When Team Leader Hua finished speaking, everyone's eyes naturally pointed out the other two people in the room. Li Xiangping could see that Zhao Jiadong seemed to respect the half-legged old man Wang who was about to fall into the ground:

"Old Wang, why don't you talk first?"

And that consultant Wang was really not polite at all, and he spoke astonishingly:

"Haha, Xiao Zhao, I have read this script, a good script! If it weren't for the good script, I wouldn't have agreed to be this consultant. But to be honest, if you want to shoot the story of this script intact, and make it look good and give it a taste, then the actors you are looking for are not suitable. No, let alone those popular stars, I have wanted to be a domestic actor these days, but I really didn't expect there to be a suitable one."

When Li Xiangping heard Old Man Wang say this, he looked at him sideways and thought to himself, who is this person? He is so angry and wants to be full of domestic actors? With your small body, are you qualified to be full of Chinese actors?

Li Xiangping disagreed, but Zhao Jiadong became more and more respectful:

"Mr. Wang, you said, what do you think is wrong with the script?"

The old man smiled and said, "It's not that there is something wrong with the script. I just said that this is really a good script. After reading this script, even I want to see this drama now. However, this script has too high requirements for actors, and it's really not something that ordinary people can do. In my opinion, if you want to play the role of Fan Shi well, you must have a very strong acting old actor. Especially Shi Xiangxia, because he is the first protagonist and the whole drama is from his perspective, so if you want to play him well, you must contribute an actor-level performance."

Li Xiangping didn't understand why, but he didn't expect that his old man suddenly smiled at him:

"Haha Xiangping, I heard that this drama was first of all the ideas you proposed, so there are many competition scenes in the whole drama, right? And I read the entire script, and the scenes of these competitions are very important. It is not an exaggeration to say that the skeleton of the entire script is the same, is that right?"

"Yes, Mr. Wang, I think so. Since it is a Go theme, of course, Go must be the main focus. If you have Go, you will naturally have competitions. The reason why you have designed so many game scenes is actually to tell everyone: Go, you don't have to rely on other things. Just telling the Go story itself should be exciting enough."

"That's right," the old man smiled and nodded: "After reading the script, I understand what you meant very much. In fact, the whole story is indeed wonderful, but have you ever thought about it? Since these game scenes are so important, they are the skeleton of the entire script, and the plot of the entire drama is driven by these games, how can these game scenes be filmed vividly? How can they be filmed well? At least, at least, can the audience understand it?"

"this......"

The old man's series of back-and-back questions directly stopped Li Xiangping, because he, as an amateur, could not answer any of these questions.

However, although he couldn't answer, he vaguely understood why the old man said that this drama had high requirements for the actors.

In the entire script framework he designed himself, of course there are a large number of game scenes. For example, Fan Shi and others have two ten-game games, and throughout the drama, the meanings of these two games are different.

"Danghu Ten Games" is naturally the final climax, but the previous ten-game of Fan Shi reflects Lao Shi's growth delay, growth anxiety, and the brotherhood of Fan Shi and the two.

For example, the famous "Nine Dragons Dance" game between Shi Xiangxia vs Cheng Lanru, in this drama, it also gives this game a new meaning: one, it is still brotherhood, this is a game where Shi Xiangxia avenges his senior brother, and two, through this game, Shi Xiangxia in the drama has really grown up, and it is precisely because he defeated Cheng Lanru, the leader of the martial arts world at that time, that "Danghu Ten Games" is possible.

It is no exaggeration to say that such competition scenes are basically the highlights of this drama. As Old Man Wang said just now, because the plot of the entire drama is actually driven by these competition scenes.

Because these are the highlights, even Li Xiangping, an amateur, knows that these game scenes are very important and cannot be perfunctory. The success or failure of these plays can directly determine the success or failure of the entire drama-----

This principle is really simple and easy to understand. Not to mention other things, just talking about the Hong Kong kung fu movies in ancient times, you can know that in the 1970s and 1980s, even if Hong Kong people made even worse kung fu movies, they would not fool the last fight scene and would definitely make careful gestures.

Why is this happening? Because in Hong Kong films in ancient times, this scene must be the highlight and the final climax, so they generally don’t do anything randomly.

If you don’t dare to be perfunctory when you make bad movies, then if you want to make a qualified or even an excellent drama, you will naturally not dare to be perfunctory when you make the highlight.

This is the question: How to use film and television cameras to make a good shot of a Go game?

Li Xiangping is an amateur, so he had never thought about this problem before.

Also because of this layman, even though he was thinking about it now, he couldn't find any clue.

Because this is not a problem that can be solved by simple Taoist costumes.

The move gestures of not actors are very standard, the shape of the chess on the chessboard is very correct, and the chess tools as props are very exquisite, and problems can be solved with these things.

Because doing the above can only be considered a basic qualification, which makes people feel that it is.

However, if you want to get more, such as letting the audience understand the trend of the entire chess game through these game scenes, and even understand the connotation behind this chess game, these alone will definitely not solve the problem.

Most of the time, these problems are solved through the actor's performance.

Since it is to be solved through performance, a new problem will arise:

Go is a very restrained game and a very "quiet" game. Although as a qualified actor, expressing emotions such as "joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness" should be a basic skill, the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness in Go is actually different from those under normal circumstances.

To give a very simple example: a chess player realizes that he will soon win a game, an opponent he really wants to win, and a game he really wants to win!

So according to normal emotions, the chess player should have been "ecstatic" at the time, and at least, his heart should have been full of joy at that time.

But in film and television dramas, can actors perform according to normal emotions?

For example, Li Xiangping, before he won a world championship, would he "express ecstasy" before his opponent admits defeat? He even laughs out loud?

Of course this is impossible. If anyone dares to act like this, Li Xiangping promises to be the first to rush forward and shoot him to death.

But if you don't play like this, for example, before most professional chess players win, most of them will definitely "not show their emotions" -----

There is no doubt that this kind of acting is definitely more realistic, but if this kind of acting, what will you let the audience see? How to express what you want to express?

Li Xiangping began to pretend to think-----

Of course he was pretending, because he was just a pure layman in film and television. So what else could he come up with someone like him?

Finally, it was okay. Old Man Wang was considerate and knew that he was an amateur, so he did not make things difficult for him, but turned to Coach Qiu and said:

"Xiao Qiu, have you considered this issue?"

The middle-aged man who is said to be the director Xiaoxiao:

"I have considered it a little before, but I am not yet mature and am preparing to ask Mr. Wang for advice."

This once again attracted Li Xiangping's attention. He thought to himself that he was indeed a professional and specialized in his profession. Look, he had never thought about this problem before, but someone who was a director not only considered it, but even thought of it as a solution.

Maybe I happened to see Li Xiangping seeing it, and the director Qiu suddenly smiled at Li Xiangping:

"You know Xiangping. Actually, if you really want to talk about it, the solution I thought of is still related to you."

"ah?!"

"Haha, really, Xiangping, you may not know that I am your super chess fan. As long as it is your game, I have watched almost everything in one game. It is because I have watched too many games in your game, which has inspired me."

"oh?"

Now Li Xiangping is really interested:

“What inspiration?”
