Chapter 694 "The Hidden Corner" Casting(1/2)
After "That Year of the Rabbit" became popular, major video websites launched this animation one after another.
Not only is it popular, but its reputation is also very good, with almost no bad reviews.
Occasionally, there are some groups who, just because they see Fang Xing’s name, go up and complain.
The result was a direct siege from netizens across the entire network.
[If you want to scold Fang Xing, please find the right place, and go to the "That Rabbit" topic to complain. Isn't it just to make you feel uncomfortable? 】
[I’m convinced, some NC groups, when they see Fang Xing’s name, they start trolling without even looking at the work. What do they think? 】
[Can I get 500,000 for reporting it?]
[If you can report these NCs and arrest them, I will give you 500,000 alone.]
[I’m getting older, and my tears are getting lower, and my eyes are red from watching it. It’s such a good animation, I feel like I’m missing out even if I give it an 8. Why do some people still give it a 0? 】
[Now that’s good, Fang Xing has made a work without spraying. It’s really hard for those who dislike Fang Xing and can’t kill him.]
Although "That Rabbit" has generally been well received by the entire network, there are still strange things that appear in some weird circles.
Even on some online platforms, if someone praises "That Rabbit", there will be a group of yin and yang weird people below.
[Doesn’t it mean you’re not patriotic if you don’t watch “That Rabbit”? 】
[Patriotic rice is delicious, and such a simple cartoon can actually make a group of little pinks climax. 】
Occasionally there will be more rational netizens who will debate seriously, but it makes no sense.
In most cases, the online world is where the butt determines the head.
When Fang Xing made this cartoon, he never thought about preaching to anyone. He just used a humorous way to tell the history of the motherland and commemorate those ancestors who are worthy of commemoration.
As for what kind of meaning an animated work can produce, this should be left to future generations to comment on.
Fang Xing likes this animation work and wants the world to see it, that's all.
"That Rabbit" swept the entire Internet, and "Wishful" and "Chasing Dreams" swept the hot song charts.
And Fang Xing's name was once again pushed to the forefront.
Nebula Animation has also become the most popular animation company in the industry, with a long queue of companies wanting to cooperate.
…
Last year, "Nezha" was a hit, raking in 4.5 billion at the box office and sparking a craze for animated films.
Countless film and television companies have invested in animated film projects, and some of them have been produced quickly, and some animated films have already been released.
However, the quality of the animated film, which was produced in more than a year, was not very good and the response was mediocre.
The entertainment giant that originally invested in the animation company still has not recovered its investment costs from the animated film industry.
The trend of animated movies has not passed yet.
"The Wandering Earth" plus "The Three-Body Problem", a movie and a TV series, have started the science fiction trend again.
Therefore, at the beginning of this year, many entertainment companies began to invest in science fiction projects.
However, this time, there are not as many film and television companies following the trend in making science fiction films as there were last year in producing animated films.
Because science fiction movies are really not delicious and too difficult.
Relatively speaking, animated movies look easier to make, at least they look easier to make.
Science fiction movies are completely different.
Entertainment companies are not stupid. They know very well which audience groups are easy to make money from and which groups are difficult to make money from.
The group that is easy to make money is naturally the fans. As long as an idol participates in the show, the fans can get their money.
The hardest money to make is suspense and science fiction.
Audiences who like suspense and science fiction have relatively stronger logical thinking skills and more rational personalities.
If you want to make money from these two groups, it's not enough to find a few idols to lick the fans' screens. You have to show your real skills.
Therefore, the cake of science fiction movies is really not delicious.
Therefore, although the trend of science fiction is spreading, not many film and television companies dare to follow the trend.
Moreover, there are examples of failure before our eyes.
"Dark Civilization", which was released together with "The Wandering Earth", used a loss of more than 400 million to tell other entertainment giants that not everyone can eat the science fiction cake.
Therefore, there are indeed film and television companies launching science fiction projects this year, but the number is not large.
The sci-fi trend caused by "The Wandering Earth" has just begun. Ark Culture turned around and released a serialized cartoon "Those Things About That Rabbit That Year", which directly hit the entire Internet.
Now it's good. The animation companies that followed the trend of "Nezha" have not yet produced animated films with mythological themes, and a new trend is coming again.
Moreover, the subject matter of "That Rabbit" is even more difficult to follow.
Why did you follow?
Does it follow the animation style?
With the simple yet humorous animation style of "That Rabbit", if you follow the trend, will the audience buy it?
Or just follow the trend of patriotism.
This is indeed a direction, but not every film and television company understands its implications.
Besides, Fang Xing didn't intend to rely on patriotism to cut leeks, he just wanted to present good works.
However, there are always people who want to demonize this matter.
Fang Xing was very calm, no matter how some weird groups tried to smear him, they just didn't respond.
After the first season of "That Rabbit" was aired, its popularity reached its highest level.
Because this cartoon is very special, after the first season was aired, many official media forwarded the news of "That Rabbit".
In particular, Tuantuan’s official Weibo forwarded news about the completion of the first season of the “Natu” animation, setting the tone for this matter.
Originally, there were still some groups who were trolling "That Rabbit" online while being black.
As a result, after Tuantuan’s official Weibo forwarded the “Natu” news, the nature of the matter changed.
Within a day, the online comments that smeared "That Rabbit" disappeared instantly.
Obviously, the bosses of certain groups have a strong desire to survive, and they know that if they continue to indulge this group of strange behavior, it will end up being a tragedy caused by fans' behavior and idols footing the bill.
Therefore, fans in the fandom community began to order fans to delete all comments that insulted "Natu".
From this day on, the world suddenly became peaceful.
…
The situation on the Internet was changing, but Fang Xing didn't pay attention at all.
Because casting for "The Hidden Corner" has begun.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! From a shooting point of view, this drama is not difficult to shoot, but one thing is more critical, that is, casting is very important.
Whether you are a young actor, a young actor, or an experienced actor, the requirements for acting skills are very high.
Therefore, during the casting stage, Fang Xing and Wang Yutao were jointly responsible.
On the other hand, "Yu Sin 2" is in preparation.
Relatively speaking, the casting selection for "Remaining Sin 2" is much simpler, because this is the second part of the series, and you only need to use the cast of the first part.
Some new roles require auditions, and Zhang Yigao can handle them.
"The Hidden Corner" requires the acting skills of all members, especially young actors, who are the most difficult to find.
The male protagonist of this drama is a 13-year-old junior high school student.
Older boys of this age are all studying in school, and there are very few actors.
Fang Xing didn't really want to find a child actor.
In fact, many child stars will have car problems when they grow up. They have developed the habit of attracting attention from others since childhood. If this habit is brought to performances, they will not be able to play ordinary people.
Therefore, Fang Xing needed to find a young actor who looked green but was very smart to play "Zhu Chaoyang".
The casting of other veteran actors cannot be careless either.
Fortunately, Ark Culture has made great achievements in both the fields of TV series and movies, and has worked with many actors. As long as Fang Xing opens his mouth, even if he is looking for movie actors to act in TV series, there will be someone willing.
When starting the casting process.
Fang Xing already had preliminary ideas about the casting of individual characters and communicated with Wang Yutao in advance:
"I think Liu Ling is very suitable for the mother of 'Zhu Chaoyang' in the play. I don't know if there is a schedule. You can contact the casting director to find out. If there is a schedule, just finalize it, or you can invite her to audition."
Liu Ling is the actress who played the role of "Wang Ruofu", the eldest daughter of the Sheng family, when she was filming "Do You Know"?
This actor's acting skills are very good, but he has never been very popular before.
After playing the role of "Wang Ruofu", he became famous immediately and received numerous film appointments.
During the preparations for "The Hidden Corner" this time, Fang Xing thought of her and mentioned it to Wang Yutao.
