398 The appeal of the actor of the great director of horror
After getting out of the elevator, Ming Yan and Mo Ye nodded, and walked straight to the gate of Shanhe Company.
Guo Jinfei was a lot more polite, and Mo Ye politely encouraged him, wished him a smooth interview, and then waved goodbye.
Ming and Guo walked away, and the agent Sister Liu dragged Mo Ye with a gossip on her face, and said with a little schadenfreude.
"My God, it turns out that Guo Jinfei won the male protagonist of "Mao Liar", and it was rumored that Cen Kun was on top before, haha, I see how Huo Juan's little girl's skin should be rampant. ”
Sister Liu gloated for a reason, Mo Ye was so handsome, she knew at a glance that she was taking the traffic route, but at the same time, Mo Ye and the company behind him also worked his acting skills.
The intention is to let Mo Ye imitate Gu Xiaoge's "top stream + drama bones" model with explosive traffic and superb acting skills, to make money from traffic, and at the same time, it will not affect the artist's reputation, and it will also delay the artist's career life.
In fact, this kind of artist model has been around for a long time, the four kings of Xiangjiang were all "idols + powerful factions", and at the beginning of the century, there were also many handsome and powerful artists.
However, when the era of traffic entertainment comes, appearance is in charge, and "idol", a word that was avoided by domestic artists in the past, is now placed on the table in a grand manner.
Everyone discovered that many new generation of popular artists don't need you to sing, dance and act, as long as you have a face that makes some fans scream, you can become a star.
At the same time, a large amount of capital poured in, and with these traffic stars, they made a series of jaw-dropping bad dramas and movies.
During this time, it can be said that it is the darkest moment in the domestic entertainment industry, and the entertainment industry, which should have developed into the process of the new era with this momentum, has degenerated and regressed to the beginning of the century.
It's not even as good as the beginning of the century, at least at that time, although the conditions in all aspects were poor, high-quality films and television emerged in endlessly......
And these so-called traffic stars who have become popular, although they have eaten a lot of dividends, their reputation has also stinked, and they have been disgusted by countless people, and even unanimously to the moment when everyone shouts and beats them.
In such a situation, Gu Xiaoge, a top handsome guy with superb acting skills, stood out from the crowd as soon as he debuted, and quickly became the top in China in a very short period of time, and his popularity has not waned for many years since then.
Since Gu Xiaoge became popular, many follow-up debutant traffic fresh meat are imitating him.
But handsomeness can sometimes be artificially shaped, but the level of acting skills really depends on talent in many cases.
And not all fresh meat and the company behind it have this long-term vision.
The most important thing is that under the temptation to make quick money, few people have the patience to implement the plan step by step.
Therefore, although there are countless fresh meat newcomers who play "Gu Xiaoge Second", using their acting skills as a selling point, they are basically selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, fooling fans, and if they really get outside, they will be killed.
Of course, there are those who play badly, and there are those who imitate well.
It can't be said that imitation, Huaguo is so big, there are always a few handsome and talented life winners, and Mo Ye is one of them.
His family is a literary family, his grandfather is a drama director, his grandmother is a piano teacher, his father is a drama actor, and his mother is a dancer and teacher.
In the third year of high school, he won the fifth place in Chinese opera, the first in magic opera, and the second in Jingdian, and finally chose Jingdian, on the grounds that his father also graduated from Jingdian.
After Mo Ye was admitted to Jingdian, he signed a contract with his current company soon after, and he acted in a second male lead in an online drama in the first half of his freshman year, and he played the male lead in his sophomore year.
In the past few years, Mo Ye can be regarded as a small fresh meat with a fairly good development momentum in the circle.
The most important thing is that because of his good acting skills, he has a good reputation among the audience, and he is also labeled as having aura in acting, which is relatively rare among the new generation of artists.
As an agent, Sister Liu is very proud to have such a promising and sensible artist under her command, and she also takes good care of Mo Ye, except for the two top artists, the rest of the resources in her hands are given priority to Mo Ye.
However, what makes Sister Liu a little worried is that Mo Ye has such good conditions, but the acting road is not very smooth.
It stands to reason that he has participated in a lot of film and television dramas, and the roles are all relatively heavy in the plays, but unfortunately, none of his dramas are out of the circle, and even his fame is tepid.
Otherwise, in terms of the number of TV series and the proportion of roles that Mo Ye has participated in, he would have been popular a long time ago, and he dare not say that compared with Gu Xiaoge, at least he is not much worse than Cen Kun.
That's right, it's Cen Kun.
The reason why Mo Ye's agent Sister Liu targeted Cen Kun was mainly because Cen Kun is now taking the "traffic + drama bone" route in Shanhe.
And this is not the key, the most important thing between Cen Kun and Mo Ye is that their image and acting style are more similar.
To put it bluntly, the two collided on the road, and they were of similar age, and there was congenital competition.
Some insiders and fans often compare the two, and like to divide them into high and low.
And Cen Kun sits on the resources of mountains and rivers, and has repeatedly participated in mountain and river dramas before, whether it is works or fame, he easily overshadows Mo Ye.
In addition, Cen Kun's agent Huo Juan is a strong personality and is more domineering, and he once forcibly intercepted Cen Kun's endorsement from Mo Ye.
It was this interception of endorsement incident that made Sister Liu very dissatisfied with Cen Kun and Huo Juan, this time I heard that the male protagonist of "Mao Liar" that Cen Kun had in his hands was gone, and the smile on his face couldn't hold it.
Looking at Sister Liu's excited expression, Mo Ye expressed helplessness.
Sister Liu was not like this before, when she heard that Cen Kun was going to play the male protagonist of Zuo Le's new drama, she almost desperately said that Mo Ye would be suppressed by Cen Kun within two or three years.
Bringing him to audition for the play "Mao Liar" also made a few days of ideological fluctuations, and he had told him thousands of times before, if he met Cen Kun in the mountains and rivers, he must not conflict with him.
As a result, Sister Liu now heard that the male protagonist of Cen Kun's "Mao Liar" had flown away, and her true form was immediately revealed, and she immediately entered Shanhe Company, so don't show her feet and be beaten again.........
.........
Three minutes later, Mo Ye and Sister Liu, who had regained her composure, stepped into the gate of Shanhe, and the staff who had been waiting here took the two to the interview area.
On the way, Sister Liu wanted to take the opportunity to talk from the staff, but the staff was very strict and long-winded for a long time, saying what should be said, not what should be said, and not revealing a valuable word.
When they arrived at the large conference room where the interview was waiting, the staff left, and Sister Liu quietly praised Mo Ye.
"It is worthy of the mountains and rivers films in the circle, the quality of the employees is really good, if you want our company, you can't keep any secrets. ”
Mo Ye ignored her, but looked at the people in the conference room, there were a lot of people, forty or fifty people, but more than half of them were agents and assistants like Sister Liu, and there were less than 20 real actors.
He looked around at these actors with his eyes, and secretly smacked his tongue in his heart, they are basically artists who are a little famous in the circle, and his coffee position is in it, which is almost in the middle and upper reaches.
You must know that Mo Ye came to interview for just a supporting role, and these people are estimated to be similar.
Mo Ye knew that Zuo Le's influence was strong, but he didn't know that it was already so strong.
It is normal for several stars to grab the male and female protagonists of a movie, and it is also normal to grab the male and female protagonists of a TV series.
And it is relatively surprising for stars to grab a starring role that is not the male or female lead, but if the director is famous or the film is strong, it can be said.
However, a group of celebrities came to try out and compete for a supporting role in a TV series, which is more or less exaggerated.
At least in Mo Ye's limited career in the entertainment industry, this is the first time he has encountered such a strange scene.
Sister Liu has taken Mo Ye for a few years, and she still has a good understanding of his character, and when she saw Mo Ye's appearance, she immediately understood what was going on, and said happily.
"Silly, this is the appeal of a big director, and there are no more than five people in the circle who have done this.
It's hard to say about the left-directed movie, but in the field of TV dramas, his new drama is definitely a paradise that many people dream of. ”
Speaking of this, Sister Liu glanced around and said in a low voice: "These people come to audition and we are all playing the same idea, not for a supporting role with a few scenes, but to show their faces in front of Director Zuo, if he remembers it, the next play will be a protagonist, then it will be developed." ”
Mo Ye immediately realized.
No matter how popular the mountain and river drama is, it is impossible to make all the people in the play popular, and the protagonist is just the leading role, and the supporting roles with limited roles are too difficult.
may be a great achievement for many newcomers or actors, playing a supporting role in Zuo Le's new drama or Shanhe drama is a great achievement.
But for a star like Mo Ye who has already come out of the limelight, this "resource" is far from impressing them.
But the reason why he came to the lineage competition, regardless of lowering his coffee position, and being willing to be a green leaf, is actually not to show how much popularity "Mao Liar" has increased, but because it is the director Zuo Le.
For a big director like Zuo Le, it is difficult for ordinary stars and actors to get in front of him, because of his abundant capital, he makes new plays, and instinctively gives priority to the actors he has worked with before, or those who have become famous.
is looking for newcomers, and several art academies take turns to wander around, and countless popular fresh meat flowers fly over like butterflies for him to choose.
Therefore, the chances of ordinary stars and actors wanting to unexpectedly get the favor of a great director like Zuo Le are very small.
But everyone has a dream of reaching the sky, especially those who are confident that they have strength, but there is no big guy to pull them, all they want is to successfully show their faces in front of the big guy, and then Bole recognizes Maxima and achieves a good story in the film industry.
Of course, the big guy won't appear for no reason, which requires you to go to the big guy, and the above trick is one of the methods.
In fact, this trick is quite useful to a certain extent, and it is beneficial for both parties.
For example, this time in "Mao Liar", Zuo Le is naturally happy that so many stars came to help, which has a great positive effect on the quality of the TV series and the later publicity.
And the actors are not thanks to it, it took more than ten days or less to show their business level in front of the big directors.
If the performance is really outstanding, Zuo Le will not be stingy with attention, and it will really be difficult to cooperate in the future.
Anyway, there are not many chips, and many people are willing to give it a try, of course, the premise is that the dealer (director or capital) has appeal, and if you are an ordinary director, you see who takes care of you.
.........
At around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, a few people came to the conference room to inform the start of the audition, and Zuo Le and several relevant persons in charge of the crew were already in place.
When the stars in the conference room heard that Zuo Le was coming, they were all excited, and their faces were full of high fighting spirit.
Generally speaking, the director does not interfere much in the audition of supporting roles like this, except for some important supporting roles, and the assistant directors of ordinary supporting roles are selected instead.
However, for Zuo Le, as long as he has time, he will come over to see the casting work of the supporting actors, not necessarily specifically, but at least to see the overall quality of the actors.
It is also Zuo Le's good habit, I heard that he personally followed up the casting work this time, and "Mao Liar" will attract so many stars to come over to audition.
Playing supporting roles on the set, there are also people who divide the scenes and come to audition, but with a rare one-on-one performance, how can you not seize the opportunity............
Mo Ye came late, and he was also at the back of the queue, and it wasn't until nearly 5 o'clock that it was his turn to try out.
In Sister Liu's encouraging eyes, Mo Ye came to the room dedicated to auditioning.
A large wooden long table, with four people sitting in the back, Mo Ye only knew two, director Zuo Le and the vice president who had met in the elevator before.
The appearance of the other two is relatively unfamiliar to Mo Ye, but according to the news that Sister Liu received from the artist who ended the interview.
One of these two is a producer, and the other is an executive director, which can be regarded as a relatively high-level member of the crew of "Mao Liar".
It can be seen that the interview experience of several hours made Zuo Le and the others a little tired, Mo Ye came in, Zuo Le and Ming Yan didn't speak, it was the executive director with a shaved head who talked to him, and then directly started the audition.
The script of "Mao Liar" is highly confidential, and all the people who come to audition only have their own characters and character introductions, as well as the lines of a certain plot.
Mo Ye wants to play a villain leader of the villain fox organization, Ah Lang, this role is not in the original version, it is an original role that Zuo Le combined with several small leaders of the fox organization based on the original version of "Mao Liar".
This Ah Lang has a lot of roles in a group of ordinary supporting roles, and there are some highlights.
Naturally, the competition for the roles is also unprecedentedly fierce, several artists are participating in the competition, Mo Ye has little advantage in it, and he is even ready to lose.
The fact is also true, this original Ah Lang character setting is funny, and Mo Ye's performance in this area is a disadvantage.
Zuo Le and the others didn't do anything like "you go back and wait for the letter", and directly announced the result.
Mo Ye thought that he had failed this time, but when he bowed and was about to leave the room, Zuo Le, who had not spoken much before, stopped him.
"A self-proclaimed clever, but as a result, he was played by others to become a rich second generation, can you accept such a role?
Explain in advance, this character doesn't have many scenes, the nature of the unit, and only appears in one episode, but the plot is still quite interesting, of course, it appears as a negative image. ”
Mo Ye didn't expect Zuo Le to suddenly speak, and he was stunned for two seconds before nodding hurriedly: "No problem, I don't pick roles, mainly because I want the crew to learn from the director, you and the teachers." ”
Zuo Le couldn't help laughing: "The guy has a good image and a sweet mouth, in this way, when you enter the group, someone will contact you when you turn back, you go back and wait for the notice." ”
"Thank you, Director Zuo. ”
Mo Ye left happily, and looked at Zuo Le Mingyan: "What, the chairman has taken a fancy to him, do you want me to say hello to Director Cao, contact him, and see if I can dig up our company." ”
The producer and executive director on the side were very calm, after all, digging the foot of the wall, the old corporate culture of Sunward Company.
Zuo Le waved his hand when he heard this: "No, I just saw him and remembered myself when I was young, thinking that we were also a handsome young man and full of vitality." ”
"Oh. ”
Ming Yan said disapprovingly: "You were much more handsome than him back then, this kid's skin is a little dark, not as white as you were at the beginning." ”
Zuo Le laughed with a cheek, and the producer and executive director next to him gave a thumbs up to Ming Yan in his heart.
If you don't say that someone can be a vice president, to use an ancient poem to describe it, it is really a human face that doesn't know where to go - stinky and shameless.........
