The name of this Xianxia drama starring the second uncle is "Immortal Dao", which is also adapted from a popular online IP, the plot is very simple, basically a teenager stepped into the road of cultivating immortals by chance, fighting monsters and upgrading all the way, and pursuing immortality.

It is reported that this "Immortal Road" is going to be filmed for four seasons, and now it is the first season that is being filmed, and whether the remaining three seasons will be filmed or not depends on the feedback of the first season.

The second uncle plays the role of a demon master in it, named Ghost Bat King, who is also a good and evil character, who was against the protagonist at first, and later joined the protagonist's faction, and also had a half-master and half-apprenticeship friendship with the protagonist.

The character of the Ghost Bat King is a poisonous tongue and stingy, greedy for money and lustful, but he is very principled at critical moments, and he is a more likable character in the original book.

The drama party of "Xiandao" also took a fancy to the supernatural performance of the second uncle when he played Captain Jia, and wanted him to be a funny role in the play, and he gave a lot of scenes, barely being a male fourth.

"No. 2 Traffic Station" has just been broadcast, Captain Jia is the most popular time, the drama party attaches great importance to the second uncle, Zuo Le just arrived at the filming base by car, a phone call came, and the producer and director came to greet him in person.

Of course, some of this is based on the face of Zuo Le, a new famous director, and only they know.

"Director Zuo, Teacher Yan, welcome. ”

Zhang Hong, the producer of "Xiandao", is a middle-aged woman in her early fifties, with a big wave of hair, wearing gold and jade, full of famous brands, and a portrait of a rich woman.

In fact, she is a well-deserved rich woman.

Zhang Hong, chairman of Beijing Red Lotus Film and Television Company, Red Lotus Company is a second-rate top film and television production company in the entertainment industry, with a market value of billions, Zhang Hong herself occupies most of the shares of Red Lotus, and is one of the best female bosses in the circle.

In this "Immortal Road", Zhang Hong is both the producer and the first producer.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, I have admired my name for a long time. ”

Zuo Le didn't expect Zhang Hong, a big man with a net worth of billions, to personally sit in the crew, it seems that Honglian Company really values this "Immortal Dao" very much.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Zuo Le's second uncle greeted the director Wang Wei next to him.

Wang Wei is a relatively senior TV drama director in the circle, and he has a lot of works in his hand, but there is nothing too good, but there are no big bad movies, and the upper and lower limits are very stable.

Many production companies like to find such directors, who are experienced and have a stable level, as long as they are paired with good screenwriters and actors, even if they don't explode, they can make a small hit, and no matter how bad they are, they can't lose money.

Although Zuo Le's rise has not been long, but the results of his works are here, Wang Wei's attitude towards Zuo Le is very low, and Zuo Le is not carried away, no matter what Wang Wei does, he is a senior in the industry.

In any circle, no matter how great your achievements are, if you don't respect the elderly, you will be disgusted and resisted by most of your peers.

The two of you are terrible, he learns from his predecessors and praises each other, and the atmosphere is harmonious.

...............

took the second uncle to brush his face back with the two biggest giants in the crew, and Zuo Le's purpose of coming back was half achieved.

The rest is for Zuo Le to go to the set again and give his second uncle a strong face in front of the crew and a group of actors.

Zhang Hong and Wang Wei are both people who have been in the circle for many years, and when they saw Zuo Le personally escorting his second uncle over to report, they understood what was going on, and they didn't need Zuo Le to take the initiative to speak, so they took the initiative to invite Zuo Le to visit the set.

Cousin Yan Ping was taken by Zhang Hong to the hotel to put his luggage, and Zuo Le took his second uncle, Wang Wei and Zhang Hong directly to the set.

The role played by the second uncle is mainly in the second half of the play, so when he came to report, the crew had been on for more than a month.

Several people came to the set of "Immortal Road" from the entrance of the base, and the assistant director was practicing walking in a palace-like scene with a large number of dragon sets, and several leading and supporting roles were talking to each other on the side.

Wang Wei took the initiative to introduce to Zuo Le and his second uncle that the general plot of this scene is actually the first time the protagonist participates in the sect conference, and those tricks are all played by the disciples of the sect.

Although Zuo Le has filmed two dramas, they are both sitcoms with limited scenes, when he was an assistant director in the crew before, most of the crews he participated in were local and anti-Japanese war dramas, and it was the first time he witnessed a large-scale Xianxia shooting scene like today, which was quite interesting.

Not to mention the second uncle next to him, looking at the magnificent palace and the hundreds of actors and staff around him, the old man's eyes became a little solemn.

Can an emotional TV series be filmed like this?

However, after all, the second uncle is also over half a hundred years old, old and sophisticated, and has seen a lot of big scenes in the past year, and he is shocked and shocked, but his face is not timid at all, and he jokes with Zuo Le with a smile.

"Look at the situation of others, when will you have such a big production, and your uncle will be able to blow a few words with relatives and friends when he goes back. ”

Zuo Le laughed: "Come on, you wait for a while, and let you blow it casually." ”

The two of them were teasing the boredom, but Zhang Hong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he suddenly interjected and asked: "What's the matter?" Director Zuo has a new project in his hand, do you need to invest, we Honglian have always wanted to cooperate with you." ”

With a total investment of less than 50 million yuan, Zuo Lepai's traffic station bilogy has made Dongshantai a lot of money, which has long become a good story in the industry and made countless film and television companies red.

Zuo Le has also become a big bull stock that many people in the industry are optimistic about, and now if he had gone to raise investment to make a new drama, he would not dare to say that it would be more than 180 million.

It's a pity that Zuo Le is temporarily focused on "The Story of the Cooking Class", and has not thought about the new drama yet, and even if he has any ideas, he is not ready to cooperate with an unfamiliar company called Red Lotus.

Of course, Zuo Le thought so in his heart, he definitely couldn't tell the truth, and casually pulled out two clichés of "there is a chance to cooperate", and covered up the topic.

Although Zhang Hong really wants to win Zuo Le's big bull stock, she also knows that this matter cannot be done with a few simple words, anyway, she has the "hostage" of her second uncle in hand, so she doesn't have to worry about finding a chance to talk to Zuo Le in detail.

............

Zuo Le didn't stay in the crew of "Xiandao" for a long time, and after helping his second uncle get acquainted with the director and leading actors, he politely declined Zhang Hong's invitation to dinner and drove away from the set.

After returning to Kongwen, Zuo Le immediately began to select actors for "The Story of the Cooking Class".

First of all, Zuo Le intends to solve the three main female characters in the play first.

Two medical soldiers, Zuo Le selected two members of the Kongwen Dance Team.

Zhang Jiajia, a Sichuan girl, speaks softly and is very cute, playing the role of Xiao Zhang, a medical soldier.

Liu Meng, a native of Hu Min, has a straightforward and lively personality, playing the role of Xiao Liu, a medical soldier.

There was only one head nurse left, and just when Zuo Le was about to completely settle it all at once, there was a small change.

Originally, Zuo Le was interested in the role of Niu Ping, the leading actress of Kongwen, and Kongwen also meant this internally, but Niu Ping was unexpectedly selected by the Spring Festival Gala and wanted to participate in a sketch rehearsal, and the schedule and "The Story of the Cooking Class" just collided.

Niu Ping's meaning must be Gu Chunwan, Zuo Le had to find someone else, and at this time, the squad leader Fat Hong recommended Yan Ni to Zuo Le.

Zuo Le specially called Yan Ni over to try out the play, Yan Ni has been an actor in Kongwen for ten years, needless to say about her professional level, Zuo Le was impressed.

In addition, there is another key point for Yan Ni to be selected in the end.

She is a native of Qinxi Province and speaks authentic Qinxi dialect.

"The Story of the Cooking Class" shows that the officers and soldiers of the army come from all over the world, and the actors in it are set to speak in dialects as much as possible.

The actors who have been decided now, Xiao Zhang is from Sichuan Province, Xiao Liu is from Hu Min, the squad leader Fat Hong imitates Yue Dongfa, and the deputy squad leader Lao Gao speaks Dongshan dialect.

Yan Ni's Qinxi dialect fills the gap in the northwest dialect in the play.

After getting the female soldiers, Zuo Le set up the supporting actors such as the company commander, instructor, secretary general, clerk and squad leader in one go.

Company commander Wang Zhan, a native of Jinmen, an empty text actor, looks upright and tough, which is very in line with the image of a soldier in the eyes of the public.

Instructor Gao Ju, a native of Beijing, has a fair face, wears a pair of glasses, looks like a gentleman, and speaks softly, Zuo Le picked it at a glance at that time.

Secretary Lin Yongjian, which was also recommended by the squad leader Fat Hong, has a pair of small eyes that are very distinctive, and he is also Zhuang and harmonious, Zuo Le left a deep impression on him.

The first squad leader, Chen Jian, the cousin of screenwriter Chen Run, is from Ji Province.

Clerk, Huang Hui, a native of Hubei Province.

In addition, there is also a role of a vegetable seller, and Zuo Le plans to go on it himself.

Since he played the sixth child in the traffic station two-part series, Zuo Le's addiction to drama has been stimulated to some extent, and he feels that as an actor, participating in his own drama has a special satisfaction and sense of achievement.

Zuo Le even decided that in the future, whenever he shoots his own scenes, no matter how many scenes he plays, he will play a role, and he will brand himself in and out of the play.

............

After Zuo Le personally decided to play the role of Boss Zuo, most of the actors in "The Story of the Cooking Class" were in place, and the rest were ......... There are only a few cooks in the cooking class.

In the story of the cooking class, the six cooks are the key, and the roles are mainly on them, if one of them is not picked well, it will directly and seriously affect the quality of the whole play.

Therefore, Zuo Le was cautious about the choice of these six cooks.

has been busy for so many days, and now in addition to the deputy squad leader, the remaining four cooks, Zuo Leyue has watched a lot of actors, but he has not let go easily.

On the contrary, Gao Xinjian, the deputy squad leader who has been decided, Zuo Le has a little objection, he feels that Gao Xinjian is a little fat, and the deputy squad leader should be one fat and one thin to coordinate, two fat people, and the roles are a bit homogeneous.

And the two actors he is currently optimistic about - Zhou Binbin and Jiang Chao are not small, if they decide to star in the two, this cooking class will become a fat class.

In addition, the role of the deputy squad leader Gao is more complicated because he wants to promote the development of the plot, and if he doesn't play it well, it will become a complete antagonist.

In Zuo Le's heart, this old Gao must have a feeling of disgust and cuteness, so that the audience loves and is angry with him and likes him a little.

Gao Xinjian's acting skills are no problem, but his chubby image makes him unable to grasp Lao Gao's scathing knife mouth temperament.

After several hesitations, Zuo Le talked to Gao Xinjian once, and afterwards, Gao Xinjian took the initiative to give up the role of deputy squad leader.

Zuo Le, out of compensation, asked him to be an assistant director in the crew, but he didn't expect Gao Xinjian to be very happy, and he followed Zuo Le's ass every day to learn the director's experience.

Later, after several auditions and investigations, Zuo Le finally settled on Zhou Binbin, Jiang Chao, and Mao Xiao, three actors, who played the role of purchaser Da Zhou, and recruits Xiao Jiang and Xiao Mao.

At this time, the remaining two characters are only Gao Xinjian's vacated deputy squad leader Gao and Bai Shuai Hu, who loves to write sour poems.

Zuo Le brushed the handsome actors of Kong Wen, but he was always dissatisfied, and just as he was about to expand the selection scope to the outside world, Yan Ni suddenly came to the door and recommended Sha Yi, a saxophonist who worked in the Kong Wen Band, to Zuo Le.

At the beginning, Zuo Le heard that this Sha Yi had not acted much, and he didn't agree with Yan Ni's recommendation at all, but when Yan Ni brought Sha Yi himself to Zuo Le, he hesitated.

The young man is so handsome!

I heard that he was still a school grass in military art before, if he was brought into the play, he didn't need to speak, and the name Shuai Hu was established with this face alone.

The appearance in the play is responsible, in addition to himself, there is one more person.

Zuo Le gritted his teeth, isn't it that he hasn't acted much, the second uncle, a pure layman, has made himself the hottest star this year, this Sha Yi still has a bit of a foundation, and if he hone and hone, he may not be able to become a talent............

In the end, Sha Yi was successfully selected and became a member of the cooking class, playing Shuai Hu.
