Chapter 331 Baogang Overlord Flower
When the other artists heard that Yu Liang got the role, they were all envious. The artists who had not yet performed immediately became fully alert and decided to give it their all.
This kind of visible way out and fair competition is the most motivating.
Although not every artist's performance was brilliant, it was clear that they all tried their best.
Hu Xiaoxiao found another female lead, Yilan, among the performing female artists.
While Yilan's martial arts skills aren't the most profound, her movements are exceptionally smooth and precise, without any drag or drag. When such actors are well-trained, their martial arts scenes are highly entertaining and easily leave a lasting impression on the audience.
Hu Xiaoxiao decided to give Yilan a chance. As for other artists, those who performed well could be given supporting roles.
In this way, the four female protagonists are all here, Yuan An'er, Xiong Caiwei, Yilan, and Hu Xiaoxiao.
As for Yu Liang's role, Hu Xiaoxiao remembered that there was a small leader under the big villain, who had a lot of scenes and exciting fighting scenes, so he could give it a try.
After everything was arranged, Liang Jiafeng's script was revised. The roles remained the same, but the screen time was increased and decreased. After some discussion, the title of the film was changed to "The Queen of Treasures and Hong Kong".
In order to make the audience feel familiar and increase the boss's fame, Liang Jiafeng followed the habit of some current movies and added the actor's character to the protagonist's name, naming him Yunxiao.
If he can bring the character to life, people will think of Hu Xiaoxiao when they think of this movie and this character in the future.
Moreover, Liang Jiafeng was very ambitious to make "The Queen of Hong Kong" into a series of movies and make it the signature of Shengshi Entertainment.
After the script was finalized, Shengshi Entertainment began recruiting actors.
The main villain is a character with superb fighting skills, so he needs to be recruited from the martial arts industry. There are also many other characters, and they all need to be recruited from outside.
Hu Xiaoxiao handed over all these tasks to the director, assisted by Nie Jinlong, while she was busy with other preliminary preparations.
It was also at this time that Hu Xiaoxiao discovered the weaknesses of the company's employees.
Hu Xiaoxiao was not satisfied with the costumes and styling. He sent them back for redoing several times, but they still did not meet Hu Xiaoxiao's requirements.
The stylists and costume designers weren't up to par, but that was unavoidable. Shengshi Entertainment had only just been established, so getting the department up and running was already impressive. Elite talent took time to slowly fill.
If it were other film companies, the requirements might not be as strict as Hu Xiaoxiao's, and the resulting styling would probably be acceptable.
However, Hu Xiaoxiao has very high requirements for movies, and he demands perfection in costumes, styling, and makeup.
For modern dramas, Hu Xiaoxiao requires actors' costumes to be fashionable and in keeping with their characters, while also ensuring their makeup and styling meet the requirements of both the actors and the characters. She hopes that the costumes, styling, and makeup in her films will retain their allure even after ten or twenty years.
Hu Xiaoxiao frequently follows fashion trends, developing her own unique perspectives and a keen sense of future trends. Her films must not only feature compelling action scenes but also a strong sense of fashion.
She also plans to create a high-end look for Yuan An'er that is different from other movie stars. This requires designers and stylists to have a high level of attainments.
Hu Xiaoxiao called Yuan An'er over and put some makeup on her. Using the effect of shadows, he made Yuan An'er's nose bridge higher and straighter, and also put shadows on both sides of her cheeks, making Yuan An'er's face look smaller and more three-dimensional.
Yuan An'er's lip shape was not obvious enough, so Hu Xiaoxiao drew a clear lip line according to Yuan An'er's face shape, and then picked a lipstick with a retro color and applied it.
Hu Xiaoxiao looked at it carefully, then took out a mirror and showed it to Yuan An'er. "What do you think of this makeup?"
Yuan An'er held the mirror and stared blankly at herself in the mirror, feeling extremely unfamiliar, "Is this me?"
Am I that good looking?
"Do you like it?" Hu Xiaoxiao asked her.
Yuan An'er held the mirror, looked around, and raised the corners of her mouth, unable to suppress it, "I like it."
Hu Xiaoxiao received a positive answer and said with a smile: "From now on, you will debut with this look."
Although Hu Xiaoxiao felt that this look was very suitable for Yuan An'er and could allow Yuan An'er to carve out a different path, he also had to respect Yuan An'er's opinion. If Yuan An'er didn't like it, he couldn't force her to drink water.
Yuan An'er looked at herself in the mirror and was delighted for a long time before she was willing to put the mirror down. She looked up at Hu Xiaoxiao who was busy for her, her eyes warm, and whispered, "Sister Xiao, thank you."
After Hu Xiaoxiao packed up her makeup box, she rubbed the top of her head and said to Yuan An'er, who was sitting on a chair and was not good at speaking, "Just act well in the future."
"Hmm!" Yuan An'er hummed heavily, then whispered, "Sister Xiao, you make me look so beautiful, but I'm afraid I can't match such a beautiful look."
"Don't worry, I've hired a physical trainer. She'll train you on your image and temperament. Just learn from her carefully."
The body shape teacher was also specially recruited by Hu Xiaoxiao for the artists. She wanted to cultivate a temperament and body shape that suits each artist, so that the artists of Shengshi can stand out from the crowd.
Although Hu Xiaoxiao regards artists as cash cows, no matter what kind of tree it is, it must be fertilized, watered, and the soil loosened so that it can bear bigger and sweeter fruits.
Hu Xiaoxiao's efforts were not in vain. Yuan An'er put on the clothes that Hu Xiaoxiao specially picked for her and walked out, immediately attracting the attention of other artists.
It was as if the ugly duckling just now suddenly turned into a white swan.
If you can improve your posture, it will be amazing.
"An'er, what's wrong with you? Are you under a spell?" Xiong Caiwei pulled Yuan An'er over and asked in surprise, "I almost didn't recognize you. Is this the new look your stylist gave you? You're so beautiful."
Yuan An'er shook her head and said, "It was Sister Xiao who did it."
"Is the principal so amazing?" Xiong Caiwei said quickly, "I want to ask the principal to give me a hairstyle, too. I want to look pretty, too."
Yuan An'er said honestly: "Caiwei, you are very beautiful."
The other artists weren't so bold, not daring to ask Hu Xiaoxiao for styling advice. But when Yuan An'er told them that Hu Xiaoxiao was hiring a physical trainer specifically for them, they were all surprised, surprised, and delighted. The company didn't need to do this, but they were still willing to spend so much money to train them, which clearly showed they had chosen the right company.
The actors have almost been selected and the date for filming is about to be set. Hu Xiaoxiao invited a physical education teacher and asked the artists to start classes immediately.
In addition, they hired fashion stylists and senior designers at high salaries to redesign the looks of the characters in "Baogang Superwoman".
