Chapter 132: Script Problem
Work is such a thing, you just can't comb it casually, because if you don't comb it, you may still feel that you are not so busy, and when you comb it, you feel that there is work waiting for you to complete, which is really tearful.
And Lu Manqing fell into this kind of tears at this time, even if she assigned several assistants to her artists, even if her team was already very large, but some of her jobs were irreplaceable by others.
For example, today, one of the most important jobs of every agent is to accompany his artists on key occasions, on the one hand, to give his artists more confidence and security, and on the other hand, to take advantage of this opportunity to establish new contacts, maintain old ones, and so on.
As for Lu Manqing's itinerary today, it was really full, at half past seven in the morning, Lu Manqing went out, the first stop was to accompany Ling Jingtian to audition, and then he had to rush to accompany the myth to shoot Grandpa Ken's advertisement, and he went in a little day.
Ling Jingtian also flew back early in the morning, and when the car arrived at the airport, Lu Manqing saw that Ling Jingtian, accompanied by his assistant, was tightly wrapped and cautiously slipped out of the airport, fortunately, it was winter, and it didn't look abrupt.
"Big beauty, you can be regarded as accompanying me, I almost thought that I had become an abandoned older child, you don't know, I have been beating unregularly every day these days, this little heart is beating unusually, mainly distressed, you know......" As soon as Ling Jingtian entered the nanny car, his mouth began to talk non-stop.
"Hmm. Lu Manqing responded slowly, anyway, she knew that Ling Jingtian didn't care about what she said at all.
"Big beauty, you have to be fair, although I also have to admit that our little sheep is really unlucky this time, but you have to look at me, look at me, you look at my little appearance, is it getting better and better, let me tell you, when the makeup artist in the background sees me, his eyes light up, you know. ”
"Do you say you have to work hard to keep an eye on me, so many people rarely soften me, in case I accidentally fall in love, do you say it will have a little impact on my career, you say I ......"
"You're not going to be in love. Lu Manqing smiled, "As long as you speak this skill, as long as you play it, the little girls who like you will be scared away, don't worry." ”
“......”
"Flutter ......" The young man who was the driver and bodyguard couldn't hold back his laughter.
Lu Manqing also couldn't stop laughing in his heart, this is good to be with Ling Jingtian, and he will never be bored, because Ling Jingtian can hold up a stage by himself, and he is completely a representative player in the talk show world.
Soon, the car arrived at the Baofeng Building, which is a building located outside the Fifth Ring Road of Kyoto, where many film and television companies are located, so it is also nicknamed the big studio in the circle.
Today's location for Ling Jingtian's audition is here, Director Mo Qi's new drama is invested by Tengda Film and Television, and Tengda Film and Television is located on the fifteenth floor of Baofeng Building.
If you can see a lot of stars anywhere in the circle, in addition to major entertainment companies and the like, Baofeng Building can be regarded as a concentration of stars, Lu Manqing took Ling Jingtian and his assistant Xiaole into the building, and naturally removed masks and glasses, and they were still fully armed in this place, which was really unnecessary.
The elevator goes straight to the fifteenth floor, overcrowded, this is Lu Manqing's first feeling after the elevator is opened, but she is very adaptable, she has seen a lot of this kind of noisy scene in her previous life, the audition scene, how can not many people reflect the gold content of this industry.
However, unlike the state of everyone downstairs who was in a hurry, as soon as Lu Manqing appeared with Ling Jingtian, he ushered in a wave of gorgeous attention, and now Ling Jingtian's popularity is really not high, but there is no way, people's appearance is there, just this face, it is worth looking back again.
Fortunately, with the guidance of the staff, they don't have to accept long-term attention in the hall, although it is also an audition, but strictly speaking, the male number one audition specially invited by the director himself is actually hand-picked, queue up or something, that is not needed.
However, because it was the audition for the male number one, the degree of caution was also higher, so Ling Jingtian was directly taken into the dressing room to do a simple shape, and at the same time, the script of the audition was also sent to him.
Actually, Ling Jingtian had already read this script, although it was only a part, but for the character design and the like, he had already done it in his heart, Lu Manqing's energy was still there, and he had not understood the script, even if it was Mo Qi's name, she would not easily set the file for Ling Jingtian.
However, this time the script is different, because of some minor problems, the script has been revised once, so the audition clip that Ling Jingtian got today is the revised version.
"Great beauty, you come, come on. Ling Jingtian flipped through the thin two pages and greeted Lu Manqing.
"What's wrong?" Lu Manqing asked.
"Have you read the revised script?" Ling Jingtian was rarely a little serious.
"Not yet, it's said to be just a minor repair. Lu Manqing frowned slightly, she felt that Ling Jingtian suddenly asked this question, afraid that she would find that something was wrong.
"I don't think it's a minor repair. Ling Jingtian's face wrinkled, "I've read the original script, and I've read the original book, this is a play with a big male lead, the female characters are basically matched, there are no intimate scenes, but look at this audition clip ......"
"Big beauty, the bed scene, it's so intense, it's not good......" Ling Jingtian's face became red, as an actor, he is naturally dedicated, for some special scenes, he is not without psychological preparation, but in the script he got at the beginning, there were no such special scenes, and the audition was so exciting, Ling Jingtian felt that he couldn't accept it.
Lu Manqing's face was even more unsightly, he took the two pages in Ling Jingtian's hand, Lu Manqing hurriedly flipped through them, the content was not complicated, there was only one fragment, and there were not a few lines.
The description is that the male protagonist Chengfeng was framed by the same door, and missed the wedding with the female number one, who is also the little junior sister in the play, and as a result, the little junior sister wanted to marry the senior brother of Chengfeng in a negative mood, that is, the same door that framed him, and Chengfeng rushed back at the critical moment, and directly took the female number one away, and the two quarreled and reconciled, and then it is indescribable.
Lu Manqing saw a black line on his head, and he auditioned for a bed scene, Lu Manqing really saw it for the first time, but what made her unhappy was that when the script was sent to her at that time, she was very sure that there was an emotional scene, but it was only an auxiliary line, and there was only one borrowed kiss scene, and there were no other intimate scenes.
Now there are inexplicably more bed scenes, which completely touches Lu Manqing's bottom line, it's okay to fix the script, but if you repair it to this point, it's a bit too much.
"Let's pause the styling. Lu Manqing whispered to the makeup artist who was already a little overwhelmed, "I'll go communicate and see what the situation is." Taking a deep breath, Lu Manqing controlled his emotions.
"Big beauty, I don't really want to shoot a bed scene. Ling Jingtian said faintly, and his little eyes were a little aggrieved.
"Yes, depending on you. Lu Manqing replied simply, turned around and left the dressing room, and when he arrived at a place where Ling Jingtian couldn't see, Lu Manqing immediately frowned.
In her previous life, although she was just an eighteen-line little dragon, after all, she had been in the circle for a long time, and she hadn't seen too much, but she had heard a lot, such as temporarily modifying the script was not uncommon, and it was not uncommon to change it like this.
But under normal circumstances, there is only one reason for such a huge change in the script, the investor's father made a move, which means that he forcibly added a sense of existence to one of the actors, or inexplicably added a certain role, etc., if it does not damage Ling Jingtian's rights and interests, Lu Manqing does not care, this is also a hidden rule in the circle, which is very common.
But the problem is that if the additional scenes just need Ling Jingtian to take them, it may even damage the shots or interests of some of his own artists, and even add some intimate scenes that should not appear at all, Lu Manqing is really unacceptable.
Soon, Lu Manqing found the assistant director, Mo Qi was auditioning at this time, and it was inconvenient to bother, but the assistant director still walked away, Ling Jingtian was a candidate for the male number one after all, and his agent and assistant director were a must.
In the reception room, Lu Manqing smiled and held two pages of paper, and said to the assistant director, "Director Li, I want to see the complete script, the content of these two pages of auditions is seriously inconsistent with the content of the script I have read before, I want to re-understand the revised plot." ”
"This is inconvenient for the time being. The assistant director refused directly without thinking about it, but there was also a trace of helplessness on his face, "Agent Lu, it's really not that I won't show you, the main thing is that the script hasn't been finished yet, and it is only about 60% complete, and I can't give it to you if it's complete." ”
Raising his eyebrows, Lu Manqing's mind moved slightly, but he still smiled, "Then I'll take a look at this sixty percent." ”
"I can't really be the master. "Still prevaricating.
"Then I'll go find Director Mo?" Lu Manqing smiled slightly.
"Director Mo is busy, I can't have time for a while today, why don't you let the artist audition first, if it happens, I'll discuss it with Director Mo after it's over." ”
"Audition bed scene?" Lu Manqing completely lost his smile this time, "I've never heard of it, there are direct trial bed scenes during auditions." ”
"Director Li, this way, I don't embarrass you, tell me, how many intimate scenes do I need to shoot as an artist in this play, why there was no relevant plot when we first gave us the script, we Sedum is young and our acting skills are not mature, if the script is so modified, it is better not to waste each other's time. Lu Manqing smiled but didn't smile.
She is not a good-tempered person, her artist, there is no shortage of such a play, although Director Mo Qi is famous, but the director is important, the script is even more important, at this point, Lu Manqing will never compromise......
