After getting Shidi at the start

Chapter 156 Training and Casting
Then just like this, while watching and thinking, time passed quickly.

When the sky gradually brightened and the city woke up, Brother Wang came to call the door, which also meant that a new day and a new job would officially begin.

After joining the crew, for Li Mingji, there are currently two main jobs.

First of all, it is to participate in the training. After all, there are a lot of fighting scenes this time, and the fighting is different from the past. One involves the use of weapons, and the other is fighting techniques, which are said to be recovered from the Qi family army. Tactics.

In this movie, there is a part about Qi Jiguang's heirs, so the Qi family's sword skills must be indispensable.

And Jin Yiwei's tactics must also take into account the characteristics of the times at that time.

Because Jinyiwei itself is actually a secret service organization, somewhat similar to an assassin in nature.

Then the weapons of the Ming Dynasty at that time had also developed to a certain extent, and even had muskets.

This is actually in the content that Lu Xing and the others prepared in advance. For this reason, he searched a lot of information and asked some specialized people, and specially invited experts in this field for reference.

Then the martial arts instructor formulates corresponding movements based on this to match each person's style.

Of course, it's not about the actor's style, but the character's style. Naturally, what an actor has to do is to fit the role.

In addition, unlike the previous "Bodyguard", the play requirements of this play will be stricter. Although the film is shorter, the quality requirements are higher, so Li Mingji is likely to often face the same action back and forth. Do it ten or twenty times.

Even if he meets the requirements, there may be problems in other aspects, and a little flaw may have to be overthrown and restarted.

This is also the reason why the preparatory work is so sufficient. Otherwise, there may be problems in every link every day. If you dare to be lazy, it will dare to crash with you.

In fact, Li Mingji had seen a similar situation when he was in "Dragonborn 2".

His role was not very long, and strictly speaking, there was only a little more than one performance in terms of action, so it was still hard for several days.

Now that he is the protagonist, he has to be ready to meet greater challenges.

The crew recruited a special trainer. As I thought before, the first part is to practice physical fitness, and the second part is "fake fights" to cooperate with routine moves.

Only after you get used to it will you start practicing the props.

At present, only Li Mingji needs to participate in the training on the crew. Even Wang Xiaokui and the others have to choose the roles after the audition before deciding whether they need to participate together.

Li Mingji really couldn't stand such one-on-one targeted practice.

In fact, as Lu Xing said, the trainer will still combine the actual situation and will not deliberately "squeeze" him.

The amount of training is not so large that he can't bear it. This kind of thing must be done scientifically and slowly.

It's just that when he was doing the movements, someone was staring at him all the time and correcting him from time to time. The good guy made Li Mingji feel like he was dreaming back to the time when he was just learning radio gymnastics in elementary school.

In the "Bodyguard" crew before, Director Yuan and the action team were not like this. Most of the time, they were still busy with their own things, and they needed to cooperate to get together.

"Hey, under the nose...it's really stressful."

After the first day of training, Li Mingji didn't feel his body relax first, but his heart first breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiaoguang watched the whole process, so he could naturally feel some of his thoughts, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "I think he's quite easy to talk to, you don't need to be under such a lot of pressure, right?"

"Maybe it's a psychological effect. The main reason is that you are not used to it. It will be fine after two days." Li Mingji said, shaking his head.

He didn't know what was going on, it was just a feeling.

But after two days, before he got used to it, he was dragged by Lu Xing and the others to help watch the audition.

Originally, although he was the lead actor and a representative of Weiheng Entertainment, one of the investors, he didn't take the initiative to ask for it, and Lu Xing could completely ignore his opinion.

But maybe it was the impression he had left by talking about the script before, which made him willing to discuss everything with Li Mingji now.

Of course, Wang Xiaokui and the others also auditioned first two days ago, and Li Mingji did not participate in order to avoid suspicion, nor did he go to understand their roles,

Before that, Lu Xing also explained the situation on Pei Mingde's side: "After we sent the invitation, Mr. Pei heard that it was recommended by you, and immediately agreed without asking what role it is."

Wang Fengze also laughed and said, "Then we told him that we think the role that suits him best is a villain or an eunuch..."

"Pfft!" Li Mingji could imagine Pei Mingde's face at that time, and couldn't help laughing.

Lu Xing smiled again and continued: "But in the end, Teacher Pei still agreed, so now I have decided on another role..."

The main characters in this play are the three brothers of the male protagonist, the female protagonist, two villains and a neutral character.

It is precisely these few roles that have the most roles and the most important weight, and the rest are mostly glimpses or a few glimpses, all of which are small supporting roles, not to mention a lot of extras.

There must be a lot of group performances needed in this play, after all, several large-scale fights require multiple people to appear at the same time.

Moreover, there are scenes of ordinary shopping, and it is necessary to imitate the scene of "stall setting up" in ancient times, but this is readily available in the film and television city, and it is the simplest.

One advantage of being in the film and television city is that there is no need to worry about group performances.

The group leaders in the film and television city exist for this kind of time, and Xiangshan film and television city may be because of the reason that Mr. Xu is in charge from time to time, so it is much more standardized than Li Mingji imagined in this respect.

At least from his point of view, there was no such nasty thing that the group leader bullied the group performers, or the group performers forced the crew.

Of course, these are all things to say later, the production crew at this time has not yet used the group performances, and there is still some time before the filming starts, and it is impossible to invite the group performances to come back.

So the main task now is to determine the main characters first, and then coordinate the schedule, and then arrange the shooting time of their respective scenes.

"The male and female protagonists and one of the villains have been confirmed, Qianhu, Mr. Zhang and several supporting roles in Lifang are confirmed to be from your company...

"So now, the roles of the male lead's two brothers, the other villain, and the senior brother need to be determined first. After that, it's the choice of the emperor and the first assistant."

This drama is still a man's drama in essence, and the heroines are all real vase roles that are icing on the cake. The most important thing is the three protagonists, their choices, their encounters, and their endings.

"Brother, you have to look calmer. The best age for an actor is between 40 and [-], and over [-] is fine. This role has its complicated side, and the acting skills are required to be higher..."

"The third brother is the youngest and the most 'simple', so look for the type who is more young and more ordinary. It is best to be in his thirties or even under, and it doesn't matter if he looks a little more handsome. limelight."

"Hahaha..." Li Mingji couldn't help laughing when he heard it, and said, "It's fine if you can steal my limelight, anyway, I'm going to 'die' in the end, and I'm the 'winner' in the end."

What Li Mingji said is naturally the ending of the characters in the play. In the end, the protagonist is the only one alive among the three brothers.

"Hahahaha, grab the bamboo shoots?"
