Chapter 192: The performance is smashed, and I promise to be myself
Wang Ye didn't expect that his chat with netizens on Weibo that day would be seen by some well-intentioned people.
As a result, he has been receiving some inexplicable phone calls lately.
are all people in the circle, just come to ask for a good sentence, and they don't say anything, and many of them have only heard of it, but they haven't met, and more are actresses, all kinds of excuses that they want to invite him to dinner.
Will Wang Ye agree?
That's definitely not going to happen.
Recently, he has been on the cusp, and once he is photographed, he can't wash it if he wants to.
It wasn't until Sister Hua called that he finally understood what was going on.
"Ono, there are good characters, but you have to think about your own people. ”
"Sister, I don't understand what you say. Wang Ye didn't understand.
"Didn't you chat with your fans on Weibo recently, saying that there is a large-scale costume drama to start filming?" Sister Hua asked: "Isn't it "The Legend of Zhen Huan"?"
Wang Ye immediately understood, it turned out that those phone calls were all because of this.
"Sister, it's still early, and the script hasn't come out yet. Wang Ye smiled: "But you can make a list, I'll see when the time comes, if it's suitable, let them try a show."
After all, this play is the director of Director Zheng, and you know him, a famous director, may have a temper and interfere too much, I'm afraid he will have a temper when the time comes. ”
At the end of August, after several months and the efforts of the four people, the script of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was finally adapted.
"Now that the script is complete, it's time for casting. Zheng Xiaolong looked at the final script, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart, in the past few months, he has devoted himself to this script, not to mention the hard work, this is originally work, but the sense of achievement is very overwhelming, he is very optimistic about this script, and he wants to shoot this drama to see what kind of results can be achieved in the end.
"Director Zheng, I have to trouble you for casting. Wang Ye said with a smile.
"That's fine, it's my job. ”
"The Legend of Zhen Huan" is a large-scale costume drama, with nearly 80 episodes, in which there are nearly 100 characters with names and surnames and lines, even if it is an important supporting role, there are more than 10 characters.
The male number one has been determined, played by Mr. Chen Ming, and then the heroine, this is a very important role, no popularity, no acting skills, Wang Ye has no suitable candidate in his heart, so let's have a meeting to discuss.
"Isn't that sister-in-law of yours going to act?" Zheng Xiaolong asked suddenly.
"She won't, I think she's too beautiful, it's not suitable to play Zhen Huan. Wang Ye said: "And she will focus on the big screen in the future, and there are no special circumstances on the small screen, so she may not consider it." ”
"It's a pity. Zheng Xiaolong said: "I think she is quite suitable, you chose her to take the road to the big screen?"
"No, it's just a little bit of an opinion. Wang Ye said: "Director Zheng, today is not here to discuss my sister-in-law, it is a matter of casting." ”
"Sister Wang, and Writer Wu, relatively speaking, you are more familiar with the script, according to what you think in your hearts, who is more suitable to play Zhen Huan?"
This is Wu Xuelan's first time as a screenwriter, although she is talented, but she still can't let her cast, she applied for a few actresses she liked, and was quickly vetoed by Wang Ye or Zheng Xiaolong. When I saw this situation, I simply chose to shut up, and it was useless to say it anyway.
"How is Sun Li?"
"Sun Li?" Zheng Xiaolong didn't answer immediately this time, but fell into deep thought.
Wang Ye fiddled with the computer and found a recent photo of Sun Li, looking left and right.
"Zhen Huan is going to start acting at the age of 17, is Sun Li a little too old?" Wang Ye put forward his ideas.
Zheng Xiaolong said at this time: "I think it's appropriate, age is not a problem, you can make up for it by makeup when the time comes, the focus is still on the back." ”
"Then notify me to audition, and see the effect after putting on makeup. Wang Ye said.
After speaking, mark it in the notebook.
"Then next are the two roles of the queen and Concubine Hua. Wang Ye continued: "Concubine Hua, I recommend one, how about Jiang Ying?"
Zheng Xiaolong glanced at Wang Ye, his eyes full of deep meaning.
"I have no opinion, let's try the play, there is no problem with her acting skills, and she will be decided. ”
Wang Ye smiled, seeing Zheng Xiaolong's eyes, he wondered if he was in too much of a hurry, and if it was too obvious to install people?
There was a feeling of being a thief, so I quickly lowered my head and wrote it down in my notebook.
Next is the candidate for the queen, this time it was Zheng Xiaolong who proposed it, it was a female star on Hong Kong Island, named Cai Xiaofen.
Wang Ye did the same, and glanced at Zheng Xiaolong meaningfully.
"Director Zheng, it turned out to be the candidate you selected, I have no problem, you decide. ”
Zheng Xiaolong was a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "What do you mean for me to decide, let's try the play first." ”
"Hehe......"
Wang Ye took the lead in announcing the list of characters on his Weibo, and then Zhen Huan's official Weibo and Wang Ye's entertainment official Weibo were announced one after another.
With this announcement, the entertainment industry, which was not very calm in the first place, suddenly seemed to throw a bombshell into it, setting off huge waves.
"Wang Ye's new drama, aiming at the adaptation market, the IP era is coming!"
"The combination of famous screenwriters and famous directors is still far from the king of drama of the year?"
"Ms. Lin Xiaojun, vice chairman and general manager of Wang Ye Media, revealed: The national audition will be held soon!"
I only heard about it before, but now it has finally been officially announced, so all artists, especially female artists, who have a little ideal and a little vision, have such a wave in their hearts, and they begin to try their best to get in touch with Wang Ye.
Tong Xiaoman, as Jiang Ying's agent, immediately found Jiang Ying as soon as he saw the list of characters.
Seeing Jiang Ying lying on the bed and watching dramas, he was angry, and while helping Jiang Ying clean up the house, he muttered: "Grandma, aren't you planning to get married? ”
"Don't be better. Jiang Ying seemed to remember something, and pouted.
Halfway through the cleanup, Tong Xiaoman suddenly sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Jiang Ying and asked, "Grandma, how is your relationship with Teacher Wang?"
"Which teacher Wang?"
Tong Xiao was angry, took off the computer in Jiang Ying's hand, and asked again: "Which other teacher Wang, how many teachers do you know?"
"You said Wang Ye, right?" Jiang Ying pondered for a while with a smile and said, "It's not good, that's it." ”
"Alas!" Tong Xiaoman was a little frustrated, then cleaned up, and then said: "Have you seen it, Mr. Wang has a new drama recently, and there are a lot of characters needed, and most of them are female characters, do you have any ideas?"
Jiang Ying hugged the computer again and replied absentmindedly: "What a new drama, why haven't I heard him say it." ”
Tong Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, listening to Jiang Ying's tone, it seemed that something was wrong, and asked, "Aren't you unfamiliar with him?"
"Can't you tell me if you're not familiar?" Jiang Ying said: "I said Sister Xiaoman, you can rest assured, it turned out to be Wang Ye's play, if there is a suitable role, he will definitely consider his own company first." ”
Tong Xiaoman thought for a while and said, "Do you want to call him and find out?"
"Don't fight. Jiang Ying said without hesitation.
She is angry with Wang Ye now, and after so long, she hasn't even called her, not even a text message.
"If you don't fight, I'll fight. Tong Xiaoman said and took out his mobile phone, found Wang Ye's number, hesitated for a moment, and still called.
Jiang Ying looks like she is watching the TV series seriously, but in fact, her heart has always been on Tong Xiaoman's mobile phone.
Wang Ye has the number of Tong Xiaoman, and when he sees that it is Tong Xiaoman's, he knows what is going on.
"Hey, who's that?"
"You...... Hello Mr. Wang, I am Jiang Ying's agent, Tong Xiaoman. Tong Xiaoman said cautiously.
"Is there something wrong?"
"Ah, that's the case, Mr. Wang, I just want to ask today, I don't know if your new play is suitable for our Jiang Ying?"
"......" Wang Ye was silent for a while, just for a while, Tong Xiaoman was as nervous as a year, and Jiang Ying lying on the bed was the same, she didn't know why Tong Xiaoman suddenly didn't speak, was she listening to Wang Ye?
So what is Wang Ye talking about?
"Whose attention is this call?"
"Ah, Mr. Wang, this is my attention. Tong Xiaoman replied honestly.
"Hmm......" Wang Ye was silent for a while and said: "You asked her to come to the company to audition the day after tomorrow, and the script has been sent to her mailbox, let her take it seriously." ”
"Ah, okay, thank you, Mr. Wang. Tong Xiaoman hung up the phone and looked at Jiang Ying with a somewhat complicated look.
"The script has been sent to her mailbox", this sentence made her think about it, which showed that Wang Ye had already prepared the role for Jiang Ying, but she hadn't had time to notify her yet.
Even if she didn't ask, she thought that Wang Ye should call soon.
"Xiaoying, tell me honestly, what is your relationship with Teacher Wang, don't hide it from me, when something happens, it's too late. Tong Xiaoman looked at Jiang Ying seriously.
Jiang Ying was a little unnatural to be looked at by Tong Xiaoman like this, and said, "It really doesn't matter. ”
“…… What did he say?"
Tong Xiaoman is now basically sure that Jiang Ying and Wang Ye must have some kind of relationship that outsiders don't know, but they just don't know to what extent.
"The script has long been in your mailbox, he asked you to figure out the role and try out the play the day after tomorrow, if there is no problem, the role is yours. ”
When Jiang Ying heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she immediately entered her mailbox, wanting to see what kind of role Wang Ye had arranged for her.
Tong Xiaoman is also curious about what kind of role Wang Ye arranged for Jiang Ying, and she can judge the degree of relationship between Jiang Ying and Wang Ye from the importance of this role.
"Concubine Hua, the third female?" Tong Xiaoman was shocked, and at the same time envied Wang Ye for being really good to Jiang Ying, she had seen this book, Concubine Hua only had a very important supporting role.
Jiang Ying was satisfied, took out her mobile phone and sent a text message to Wang Ye.
"Thank you!"
Wang Ye quickly replied: "Play it for me well, if you mess up, I'll ask you." ”
"Don't worry, the performance is smashed, how about I make a promise?"
"Then you have to play it better. ”
