Chapter 257: Old Acquaintances

Chihara Rin thought about it, but he still didn't want to use Izumi Yuko, this guy used a production cycle of about ten weeks a season is very troublesome, not to mention "Okulu No. 1 Meiji" with a production cycle of nearly forty weeks, and her appearance and temperament do not conform to the image of "Ryoko" he envisioned in his heart - after thinking about it for a long time, Chihara Rin felt that the last point was the reason why he instinctively didn't want to use Izumi Yuko.

Izumi Yuko is very beautiful and sexy, but "Ryoko" was a kind, innocent, strong and principled girl in the first half of her life, and judging from the experience of Rin Chihara using Izumi Yuko many times, she will have any shortcomings when she acts.

She is more suitable to play a professional woman than a girl.

After "Ryoko" becomes "Ryohime", Izumi Yuko's temperament can make do, but her sexiness is not the kind of sex appeal that charms all beings, and it doesn't seem to be suitable......

She plays a black-bellied concubine, and it is appropriate for her to play a rival role with "Ryoko"!

But she can't do it, and even more so than the actresses above her, all of them are all over the standard, and they can only rely on their acting skills to play the innocent girl, and the effect is estimated to be almost meaningless, it seems that it should be selected among the younger generation of actresses, but the actresses who entered the industry later than Izumi Yuko are somewhat lacking in fame, audience appeal and experience, and it is also risky to use it to star in a big river drama with a huge investment.

Rin Chihara looked up at the ceiling, thought for a long time, and slowly made up his mind.

If fame, status in the actor circle and role suitability are incompatible, for the sake of the overall effect and ratings, you still have to give priority to the role suitability - this is the same nature as the selection of "Chen Yuanyuan" actors!

What kind of actress do you want to find to make the audience feel that it is natural to "rush to the crown and be angry", and will not play halfway through it?

Then it's Ryoko's turn, what kind of actor should be chosen to make the audience feel that it is reasonable for the entire Takahashi family to be fascinated by her, and not to make the audience think that all the men in the Takahashi family are idiots who have never seen a woman?

You still have to find someone with the right appearance and outstanding temperament, if not, it's not too late to retreat and choose Izumi Yuko!

Chihara Rin suddenly sat up straight, directly eliminated all the well-known actresses who had already boiled out, such as Yuko Izumi and Asami Arikawa, and began to look for the new generation of actresses - seventeen to twenty years old, with good looks, full of feminine charm, with a smile and a smile, and good acting skills, but it is tolerable in other aspects.

It's not easy to find, but he is very patient to look at the photos on the actors' profiles one by one, and if there are slight flaws in their appearance, such as too thick lips, baby faces, etc., they are directly excluded, and only look for the kind of appearance that is amazing at first glance - it doesn't matter if it's a vase or not, this is just a primary selection, and he has to call people one by one to observe the attribute values with [Star Scout], and then audition to see the shooting effect.

However, there is no shortage of beauties in the circle he has been mixing for a long time, and there are not many actresses whose appearance can make him shine, and after turning over for a long time, looking at this is not suitable, looking at that is not suitable, it is a little disappointing, and he is almost ready to give up, but when he turned to the next information, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This actress looks delicate enough, her face is a small melon seed face, there is a kind of taste that I see you pity, her facial features are three-dimensional, flawless, and from the close-up photos, the skin is smooth and delicate, and there are almost no pores, and the corners of her eyes are faintly seductive when she smiles, but the overall look is particularly dignified.

This seems to be okay, just in terms of appearance and temperament, it seems to be stronger than Izumi Yuko, and the age, eighteen years old, the stage name is Ueki Satomiko......

Rin Chihara was stunned when he saw this, and couldn't help but look at the photo again, feeling that he had an impression of the actress, but his memory was very vague, so he got up for a while, and quickly followed the information sheet to find her agency-Ishimotoqiao Performing Arts Agency!

Seeing this, Rin Chihara remembered that he had really seen this Miss Ueki Satomiko, but not on Kanto United TV, but on TEB in Tokyo.

That was the first day he signed a contract with Tokyo Broadcasting TEB, and was about to go with Murakami Iori to meet Dandelion director Fujii Arima, and just happened to meet Tetsuhei Nagano with the newly debuted Ueki Satoko to Tokyo Broadcasting TEB to worship the mountain, and said hello at that time, but at that time Ueki Satomiko was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he had not fully grown up - at that time, he felt that Ueki Satomiko looked very exquisite, and now two years have passed, Safuko is in the transition period from a girl to a woman, and she looks delicate and beautiful with more femininity, and the change is still quite big.

I didn't expect there to be this fate, it's an old acquaintance, Chihara Rin looked at the information and thought for a while, touched the mobile phone and called Nagano Teppei directly, and waited for a long time before the phone was connected, and Nagano Teppei's weak voice came from inside: "Chihara sensei, it's one o'clock in the morning, I'm old, I need to have a good night's sleep......"

Rin Chihara glanced up at the wall clock, a little embarrassed: "Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the time, you can rest, I'll call you again tomorrow morning." ”

"Forget it, I'm already awake. Tetsuhei Nagano's voice was helpless: "What is the bad luck this time?"

Chihara Rin found a lot of things for him, and forced the popular singer Banquan Spring Water to him, and Banquan Spring Water was completely uninterested in anything other than singing, and almost did not participate in any commercial activities, causing him to push around every day and offend many peers. In addition, he also gave Michiko as an agent, and Michiko needed time for her guardian to accompany her to act, so he could only lie down in the lounge of the studio and sleep for three months.

Tetsuhei Nagano and Rin Chihara are very familiar with each other, and they speak very politely, and Rin Chihara doesn't care, this old man's character is really good, he shields the wind and rain for the spring water of Banquan, and also helps Michiko hang the name of the acting guardian, and the time is not spent, but he just simply helps, and never uses these two people to take benefits, which is very commendable - this person's reputation respects the free choice of his actors, does not grab the actors and suck blood, his character is worthy of respect, it doesn't matter if he complains a few times.

He smiled directly and asked, "I just want to ask about the situation of Miss Ueki in your company, what is her personality?"

Tetsuhei Nagano was completely awake at this time, and when he saw that he was down to business, he immediately became a lot more serious.

He was complaining just now, but mainly because he was woken up in the middle of the night, Rin Chihara was actually a big producer and screenwriter he rarely saw and humane, and gave his two young actors, Soma Bo and Misaki Whalei, excellent opportunities, and the reward for his efforts was extremely rich, even if Banquan Izumi and Michiko had been making trouble for him, he actually had no opinion, and asked directly: "Is it Safuko's girl?"

"That's right, it's her. ”

Tetsuhei Nagano was a little confused: "You have a crush on her?"

Rin Chihara smiled and said, "It's hard to say now...... He talked about the fact that the casting is a little difficult and Safuko looks good, and continued to ask: "What does Nagano's seniors think of her personality, and can she take on the role of the starring role in a high-investment Taiga drama?"

After all, she is too young, and there are no fewer cases of actors being crushed to death by dramas, if Safuko's psychological quality is not strong enough, there is no need to even ask her to come and see it with her own eyes, so as not to waste time and hurt the actors under Tetsuhei Nagano - for actors, giving great expectations and then denying her in the audition is a great psychological blow, so since he has a relationship with Tetsuhei Nagano, I will ask his opinion first.

Tetsuhei Nagano didn't expect that this kind of pie-in-the-sky good thing would happen when he fell asleep, but he didn't pounce directly like other agents, but pondered there for a while before saying: "Safuko, this girl's psychological quality is okay, but she hasn't got the opportunity to play the starring role, and now let such a big drama revolve around her, I can't say if she can afford this responsibility." ”

"What about her acting skills? I remember you saying before that she has a talent that is not lost to Miss Asami, is that true?"

Miss Asami is Asami Arikawa, the big actor who "defected" from Asahi TV, and is considered to be the top level among the current actresses, Chihara Rin vaguely remembers the first time he met Tetsuhei Nagano, he praised Safuko so much, but Tetsuhei Nagano can't remember it anymore, and after thinking for a while, he said vaguely: "She does have acting talent, but she is not mature yet......"

Turns out you used to brag about it......

Chihara Rin was also helpless, and asked, "How about comparing with Michiko and Miss Izumi?"

"Her potential in acting is not as great as Michiko, and she is a little worse than Yuko, but she is much better than ordinary actors......"

Chihara Rin nodded silently, that is to say, Safuko is not a genius actor like Michiko, nor is it the acting level of Yuko Izumi who can take the rookie king, but the acting level is also passable, only in terms of potential, it is the bottom of the top - Nagano Teppei's eyesight is still quite good, and the evaluation has a certain credibility, after all, this guy's hobby is to dig up newcomers, and the ones that are picked out like Kanno Shin, Soma Bo, etc. are all temporary choices, even if it is the big breasted vase of Misaki Whalei.

This person just doesn't have the talent to run a company, so he doesn't have to doubt it.

Chihara Rin thought for a moment and asked, "How is she developing now?"

"It's not bad, my current regular job is to be a guest on a variety show of Tokyo Broadcasting TEB, but the show is not very popular. debuted two years ago, participated in three TV series, and a low-cost literary movie, all of which were supporting roles, but the response was very good, and now he is well-known in the industry. ”

There is no fame at all, and the information cannot be placed on the table of Rin Chihara, and Rin Chihara is not strange, holding his mobile phone and flipping through Safuko's information, he found that the small-cost literary films he participated in are estimated to be the nature of the director's practice, the film scheduling rate is very low, and there is not much response, and the TV series are also small-budget films, the time period is not very good, and the ratings are mediocre, but she has already started to get relatively important supporting roles from the vase, and it seems that the development is not bad, much stronger than ordinary actors.

As for that variety show, the guests are all young girls, and there are more than a dozen of them, and Safuko is estimated to be mixed in to grab the camera!

Rin Chihara pondered it in his heart for a while, and after thinking about it comprehensively, he felt that it was okay, at least it was worth seeing in person, so he smiled and said, "Senior Nagano, you arrange it, and let her come to me tomorrow." ”

"Privately?"

"Yes, you don't have to tell her why. ”

Tetsuhei Nagano has no opinion, before Rin Chihara was sure that Safuko was suitable, he directly asked other producers and directors to watch her audition, and she acted a sloppy role, which is easy to reduce Rin Chihara's prestige in the team, and it is normal to meet in private in advance, and by the way, it is also for the sake of his face to protect the young actor - I know that I can get such an important role, but in the end, I am happy, and it is estimated that Safuko will be depressed when she goes home!

That's it, Chihara Rin hung up the phone and continued to look through the information of other actresses, reluctantly picked out two more, and was going to try these two again after seeing Safuko and finding that it was not suitable.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to use the time bomb of Yuko Izumi.

There's no way, that's how it is to make a TV series, how can it be so easy to find the right actor to find perfection, he still has the right to designate his own actors, if he changes to a screenwriter with a lower position, the producer will decide to play "Ryoko", unless he tears his face with the producer and makes a big fuss and sues the formation committee, otherwise he can't refuse - under the production bureau system, even if he sues the formation committee, eighty percent will still let the sow play, after all, in this system, whoever is responsible has the real right to speak.

Of course, if the sow plays a flutter, the producer will wait to be sent to the frontier!

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

Early the next morning, Satoko Ueki entered Kanto United TV almost as soon as it was time to go to work.

She didn't know why she came here, the president called and only said that she should come to the well-known boss in the industry, Mr. Chihara, and then let her obey this man who dared to defect from Tokyo Broadcasting TEB, dared to reward the top cow with the academy, and beat all his peers in the past two years, and all the orders of the rumored big guy who was very strict with people - she was silent on the surface, but she was very afraid in her heart, she forgot that she had seen Rin Chihara, and now she only felt that she was a person of two levels with Rin Chihara.

She broadcast TEB to participate in a variety show in Tokyo, and even ordinary staff didn't dare to offend, and greeted them with a smile, and the kind of staff was glared at by a big guy of Chihara Rinto's level, so they had to bow and apologize immediately, even if they didn't do anything.

It's really not a human being of a nature!

She went all the way to the eighth floor, and as soon as she got out of the elevator, she saw the bronze "Chihara Rinto" - her expression was serious, her eyes seemed to be about to eat people, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be about to scold in the next moment, which suddenly made her more nervous, her tongue was dry for a while, and she hurriedly went to the staff to report her name, ready to wait for the real Chihara Rin to be summoned.

But before her ass was hot in the chair, she saw a girl wearing a baseball cap and a ponytail and wearing a director's vest fall out of the office, and she could be vaguely heard complaining, "You are so good, you can forget to go to the house twice, you will definitely be dumped like this, don't blame me for not reminding me then...... Ouch, why are you still beating me when you're like this?"

Safuko was startled, and quickly lowered her head and pretended not to see anything, and when she was looking at her nose and nose, she heard the ponytail girl shouting, "Miss Ueki, who is Miss Ueki Safuko?

Safuko quickly stood up, looked at the other people in the waiting room, and hesitated, "I'm ...... now Will you be able to get in?"

The pony-tailed girl was very polite and said, "Yes, please!"

"That's rude. Safuko, as a young actor, no one dared to offend when she entered the TV station, and she dared to go inside after bowing shallowly from side to side, and as soon as she entered the office door, she met the eyes of Rin Chihara.

For a moment, she seemed to feel the pressure like substance, and her head suddenly lowered as if she had been pressed, but she immediately reacted and said respectfully: "Chihara-sensei, hello, I'm Satoko Ueki, it's the first time we meet, please take care of me." ”

Rin Chihara didn't speak, looking up and down at Satoko Ueki, with no expression on his face, but a little disappointed in his heart.
