Chapter 357: Wang Junkai
As early as 2009, a company in the imperial capital found a gap in the domestic "trainee" market and established the TF family project.
In the next three years, a group of young boys were selected one after another, and it was decided to create a combination to promote the listing.
It happened that Chen Zhiqian needed to find a beautiful little brother, so the two parties hit it off and decided to cooperate.
Just like "Calories", which was promoted in cooperation with "The Richest Man in Xihong City" when Rocket Girl debuted, the movie is popular and the song is also popular, and a win-win situation can be achieved.
After Zhou Jin knew the cause and effect, he still felt amazing.
A few days later, Chen Zhiqian, Zhou Jin and Wen Muye drove to the Imperial Capital Fengjun Culture Company.
Accompanied by a middle-aged woman, I met three small ones in a conference room.
Wearing a brown suit, combing bangs, sitting in a wide chair, looking cramped and uneasy, it looks like a bully, how can there be a little bit of a young and beautiful boy.
Wen Muye has long hair, and Bei'er has the demeanor of an artist, looking at the three of them, he immediately knows in his heart.
He tilted his head to look at Chen Zhiqian, didn't he say three people, how come there are still two that haven't grown?
Chen Zhiqian looked back, don't make a fuss, it's good to be able to find this, isn't the little boy growing up.
Zhou Jin was a little excited, the future idol and CCTV's own son was now sitting opposite him and trembling.
However, he belonged to pure passers-by in his previous life, and he only knew their names, and he really couldn't tell who was who.
So Zhou Jin showed a smile of abducting and selling children: "Come, you introduce yourself first." β
The little boy on the right got up and bowed: "Hello three teachers, my name is Wang Junkai, born in 1999, currently studying in a middle school in Yuzhou, and has covered "Prison Bird" ......"
He gave a brief introduction, followed by two others.
"My name is Wang Yuan......"
"My name is Passerby A......"
Passerby A, the name is like a joke......
Zhou Jin smiled kindly, "Do you have any other names?" Or, did the company give you a stage name?"
The third boy shook his head timidly.
Wang Yuan said: "He entered the company as a trainee with me, and he is called Passerby A, and he has no other name or stage name." β
Didn't you?
Zhou Jin frowned, he remembered that the name of the third child was four words.
Is this the butterfly effect, replacing the third child, or is it that the third child has not returned to his position at all?
He couldn't figure it out, but it didn't affect the final result of the casting.
The third child can't say anything clearly, he must be passed, the second child seems to be the spokesperson in the small team, clever and cute, and then they like the boss more.
Just because he is a year older, he already has the meaning of a little teenager, not a little kid.
After a few simple questions, Wen Muye asked, "Have you acted before?"
Wang Junkai shook his head and said no, the middle-aged woman saw what they meant, and said beside him: "This kid has recorded variety shows, and he has a strong sense of camera." β
Wen Muye looked at Zhou Jin, a little embarrassed.
He is a purebred rookie and has never directed a feature film, and this time he was recommended by Ning Hao to direct "I Can Say", which is already a great opportunity, and he dare not be ambiguous at all.
Although Nortel also has acting classes, he is better at stories and shots, and it is not a strong point to train actors, let alone this kind of small actor.
Do you want Sister Qian to find an experienced one?
Zhou Jin shook his head at him slightly, just him, it doesn't matter, you can't be adjusted, it's the same for me.
One day, when he smooths out the lenses and lights, even the director will have to find it.
Chen Zhiqian has always been clear and does not express her opinion.
The final decision still fell into the hands of Wen Muye.
Anyway, it's just a few scenes, and it's not a big deal.
In this way, a movie that should not have appeared, with a gentle push on the wheel of fate of several people.
Now it seems to be just ordinary.
After leaving the conference room, the three little ones looked at the backs of the adults and whispered together.
Adults have their worries, and children have their worries.
Wang Yuan sighed, quite regretful, "Hey, I'm too young, if only I was in junior high school." β
Wang Junkai also sighed: "I am in junior high school, but I have never acted." β
The third child sighed even louder, "So I'm not getting a good name?"
Wang Yuan patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "No, passerby A is very good, it is better than a middle-aged and old woman." β
Outside the conference room, Chen Zhiqian and the old woman discussed the schedule.
After all, Wang Junkai is still in junior high school, and he has to participate in the company's training, so he has to pick out his role and finish filming as soon as possible.
And according to their plan, the TF group will definitely have to be promoted in the second half of next year, and "I Can Say" should also be released in the second half of the year, and the publicity matters in this must be coordinated.
Fortunately, Chen Zhiqian can do a good job, and Zhou Jin and Wen Muye can discuss the movie with peace of mind.
"Are you very optimistic about that kid?" Wen Muye glanced back.
Zhou Jin said: "I'm very optimistic, just like Ning Hao is optimistic about you." β
Wen Muye smiled bitterly, "I know that Director Ning is optimistic about me, but my thinking may not be the same as yours, and I can't let you lose money." β
", we didn't think about losing money. β
"It's different, there are a lot of things that the audience can't understand, or rather, they understand, but don't want to accept it, and then there is no box office, you don't care, but I can't. β
Zhou Jin turned his head to look at him, "What do you want to say?"
Wen Muye pursed his lips and said slowly: "You know, few of the current audiences are moved by true feelings, but Keqi will make them cry...... So, I'm probably going to shoot very sensational. β
Normally, most of the directors who are willing to shoot realistic themes have a sense of social responsibility.
Even Feng Xiaogang is no exception, after making Chinese New Year films for so many years, "1942" suddenly came this year.
What you want is to be profound and real, and once you are curious, you will fall into clichΓ©s.
But Wen Muye is an outlier, this guy can be sensational to death for the sake of the box office, even if he sacrifices logic.
The "I Am Not the God of Medicine" a few years later is an example, but the audience still bought his account.
To put it simply, the true feelings cannot be retained, and the routine wins the hearts of the people.
Zhou Jin didn't feel bad, but was very pleased, and said with a smile: "Ning Hao said that being a producer is to accompany the run, we will only suggest, but we will not interfere...... Of course, that little guy I can help you******** Mu Ye smiled, "I'll go and shave my hair when I get back." β
"Why are you shaving your hair?"
"Draw a line with those guys. β
"Heh," Zhou Jin was happy.
Is this the story of a literary and artistic youth who bends to the box office?
Then I'll fold a little more for you.
"I've made up my mind for the second female number," Zhou Jin said confidently.
Wen Muye probably hadn't seen such a brazen guy before, so he was stunned, "You slept with the girl?"
Zhou Jin didn't answer, his face was serious, he just helped his old waist.
It's only been more than three months, so why do you feel a little empty?
On the way back, Chen Zhiqian drove, Zhou Jin sat in the co-pilot, and Wen Muye pondered the script in the back row.
"Now that the main actors have been decided, do you want to meet together at the end of the year and talk about the script or something?" Chen Zhiqian proposed.
Zhou Jin has nothing to do, "You can save up the game, it's okay to go to the embroidered spring knife bar, but it's best to stagger the time, I have something to do recently." β
"Another movie is out?"
"Almost, do you know about "Thai Embarrassment"?"
"I know, just Lao Xu and Huang Bo filmed it, they have to pull Wang Baoqiang, tsk, can you still watch the movie?" Chen Zhiqian looked at Yan Gou, and complained mercilessly.
Zhou Jin was looking forward to it, "How about we make a bet, how much do you guess the box office?"
Chen Zhiqian said: "Okay, 500 million is in the sky." β
"Hey, Director Wen," Zhou Jin turned around and asked, "How many do you guess?"
Wen Muye raised his glasses, "There are also the wonders of vulgarity, I guess 800 million, there are many new big screens in China this year." β
Chen Zhiqian snorted lightly, "You are so beautiful, there are many blockbusters released this year." β
This is true, "1942", "The Grandmaster", "Zodiac", and "The Hobbit" are all released in the Chinese New Year stalls, and none of them are easy to mess with.
Among them, "Thai Embarrassment" counts as a ball?
If you can have 800 million, you can steal the fun.
Zhou Jin slapped his thigh, "I'm grassy, I said that you broke a billion or not, right?"
