226, can we act together?
After reading the synopsis of the two scripts, Li Yuqing also came to a similar conclusion, usually, for a comedy film, the screenwriter will always write words like "funny" and "hilarious" in the synopsis of the script.
However, the real plot is extremely embarrassing.
After getting a general understanding of the situation of the two scripts, Zhang Fan and Li Yuqing exchanged glances.
"Brother Fan, you can choose one. β
Zhang Fan's qualifications and fame are greater than Li Yuqing's, so Li Yuqing said very modestly.
"Then I'll come to this "Heart Flower Road". β
In Zhang Fan's opinion, the two scripts are simply half a catty, and it doesn't matter which one to shoot, but the male protagonist of the first script is older and more suitable for him.
"Okay, then I'll shoot another "Predecessor Raiders". β
In this way, the two divided the script.
As the two said, the two scripts that Hu Shuo came up with were "Heart Flower Road" and "Predecessor Raiders", which had achieved a good box office in another time and space.
Of course, "Predecessor Raiders" here is the "Predecessor 3" with the best box office results.
"Now that both of you have chosen the script, let's familiarize yourself with the script and the characters in the play as soon as possible. As he spoke, Hu Shuo looked at the watch on his wrist: "Two hours later, the audition will begin, and all the actors here will familiarize themselves with the script and roles as soon as possible." β
"Again, everyone is fair in this audition, and the only criterion for judging is that the acting skills and whether they are suitable for the role they play, please take it seriously, except for those who want to leave the company, of course. β
With that, Hu Shuo got up and left the conference room.
As soon as Hu Shuo left, the meeting suddenly exploded.
"What the hell, what kind of assessment is this!"
"What tricks can be filmed with just these two bad scripts!"
"According to what he said, wouldn't the company want to start two dramas at once, even if each one invests 50 million, it is 100 million, and 100 million is used to evaluate everyone?
"It doesn't matter if he is assessed or not, it's not good to have filming, anyway, he is the boss, and he is willing to take out 100 million to play, so he will play with him!"
"Our Mr. Hu is Mr. Yang's husband, and he is a person who is 100 million short, I haven't heard of it, I lost billions of dollars to the group a few years ago!"
"Forget it, let's take a look at the script, if it's really like what Mr. Hu said, maybe I can play a male lead!"
ββ¦β¦β
"Mr. Tian, is it up to him to come so nonsense??"
Zhang Fan shook his head and asked Tian Kai, who was staying in the conference room.
"It's not up to me to say it now. β
Tian Kai shrugged his shoulders and said: "However, Mr. Hu also has his reasons for doing this, the reason why it has been difficult for our Wanli Pictures to achieve profitability is that there is a problem with the content, so the first thing to assess after Mr. Hu takes over is all of you." β
"I don't think there's anything wrong with this assessment, let's take it seriously!"
At this time, of course, Tian Kai wanted to support Hu Shuo, in fact, he had been a little dissatisfied with the directors and actors signed by the company a long time ago, as the president of Wanli Pictures, he spent money on one drama after another, and he did his best to publicize it, however, most of the time the results were unsatisfactory.
"Mr. Tian, I still have a year left in my contract with the company, if he tosses it like this, I can't guarantee whether he will renew the contract with the company. β
At this time, Chen Aoshi, who was already holding back his anger, opened his mouth again, of course he knew Hu Shuo's identity and background, so he didn't dare to clash with Hu Shuo head-on, but Tian Kai was a different matter, although the other party had the title of president, he was just a senior worker.
And Chen Aoshi, as the company's "first brother" and a former first-line star, is not at all afraid to talk to Tian Kai.
Nowadays, the entertainment industry in Huaxia is very developed, and stars with high national popularity like Chen Aoshi are naturally the targets of major entertainment companies, so he does not have to worry about the next family.
Tian Kai didn't expect Chen Aoshi to threaten to terminate the contract in public, and his face was a little ugly, in fact, even when Chuangshi Entertainment did not acquire Wanli Pictures, Chen Aoshi's style of acting was relatively arrogant, no way, although the company was on his own line, and he was often needed to support the faΓ§ade, so in the past, Tian Kai also let him score three points.
However, at this time, Chen Aoshi said such things in front of so many people, which made Tian Kai a little unable to get off the stage.
"Aoshi, you also heard it, this is what Mr. Hu meant, I am just a working boy, how can I influence the boss's thoughts. β
Although Tian Kai was full of displeasure, this kind of occasion was obviously not suitable for seizures, and he could only sacrifice Hu Shuo as a shield.
"Proud of the world, this matter is indeed not something that Mr. Tian can control. β
At this time, the middle-aged woman sitting next to Chen Aoshi pulled his sleeve, this middle-aged woman's name is Xie Lan, and she is Chen Aoshi's agent.
Seeing Xie Lan open his mouth, Chen Aoshi didn't say more, in fact, he also knew that Tian Kai couldn't decide anything now, he just had a fire in his heart, before that, the company's dramas were mainly based on him, and the roles were chosen by him, but now it's good, he even wants him to try out with a group of young actors, he really can't accept it.
"Sister Lan, do I really want to try out with them?"
Chen Aoshi glanced at the script in front of him, his face full of disdain.
"Let's try it, it's just a formality, can I really play the male lead without you?" Xie Lan comforted, and whispered: "When the new boss takes office, of course, he wants to stand up and give him some face." β
"Well, too. β
Chen Aoshi nodded, feeling that what Xie Lan said made sense, the new official took office with three fires, Hu Shuo had just acquired Wanli Pictures, and of course the new boss had to show some majesty, and by the way, give some hope to the young actors in the company.
As Xie Lan said, can the company still play the male lead without him? No one can carry the banner of the male lead of a movie except him!
"Okay, Sister Lan, then you can help me read the script, and then tell me which role to try. β
As he spoke, Chen Aoshi leaned into the chair, ready to squint for a while.
"Okay, I'll tell you later. β
Sheeran got both scripts in his hands.
At the other end of the room.
The other two iconic characters of Wanli Pictures, Yang Jian and Zheng Xue, are also whispering.
The two of them are a rare model couple in the entertainment industry, the two got married because of a play, fell in love for two years and then entered the palace of marriage, and now the two have been married for eight years, and the children are six years old, but the relationship between the couple is still very good.
Both of them belong to people who are not so strong in fame and fortune, and they live more Buddhist, and in the entertainment industry, of course, they can't receive top-level resources with their attitude, and it is basically impossible to improve the coffee position, unless it is a work of luck and a big hit, however, this probability is too low.
And since the two signed into Wanli Pictures, that is, to shoot the production of Wanli Pictures, or have participated in investment dramas, they are still in a tepid state for a few years, but the two do not have much ambition and are satisfied with the status quo.
After listening to Hu Shuo's words, the emotions of the two did not fluctuate much, but studied the script.
"Wife, I think you can try the role of Kang Xiaoyu. β
Yang Jian flipped through the script of "Heart Flower Road" and said.
"Then you give Hao Yi a try, you haven't played this type of role. Zheng Xue said.
"Playing a scumbag?"
Yang Jian hesitated a little: "Why don't I try Geng Hao?"
"Don't, it's unlucky, Geng Hao and Kang Xiaoyu are divorced in the play. Zheng Xue shook her head.
"After filming for so many years, do you still care about this?" Yang Jian smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll try Hao Yi, lest the two of us play against each other, I will laugh." β
Obviously, the husband and wife are in a peaceful state and do not feel any discomfort because of the audition, in fact, for an actor, audition is a normal thing, but it has developed to the point that some well-known actors have been spoiled.
Two hours passed quickly, and Hu Shuo returned to the conference room on time.
"Everyone has read the script, in this way, those who want to play the role in "Heart Flower Road" sit on Director Zhang Fan's side, and those who want to play the role in "Predecessor Raiders" sit on Director Li Yuqing's side, now, let's move. β
There was no nonsense, and after sitting down, Hu Shuo said directly.
And everyone can be regarded as cooperative, and they sat in two camps according to the roles they wanted to try.
However, the lineup on the side of "Heart Blossom Road" is obviously stronger, Chen Aoshi, Yang Jian, and Zheng Xue are all sitting on this side, and the number is relatively large, while the actors on the side of "Predecessor Raiders" are all relatively young actors in the company, and it seems that everyone still has a preliminary understanding of the script.
After everyone was seated, Hu Shuo pulled his chair to the door and vacated the open space in front of the conference room, which was the stage for the actors to audition.
"OK, let's start the audition now, let's come here first, after all, there are a lot of people here. β
Hu Shuo pointed to the camp on the side of "Heart Flower Road", and asked again: "Who will come first?"
Everyone was silent, and this kind of audition obviously made everyone uncomfortable.
"I'll give you a start. β
Yang Jian stood up with a smile: "The role I tried was Hao Yi." β
As he spoke, Yang Jian walked to the open space in front of the conference room.
"Brother Jian, which scene are you going to try?"
Yang Jian was a few years older than Hu Shuo, so Hu Shuo also called him Brother Jian respectfully.
"I want to try the scene where Hao Yi and Geng Haoen broke off their righteousness. Yang Jiandao.
"Okay. β
Hu Shuo nodded, but he was looking forward to it, because this scene is the most exciting scene in the whole drama of "Heart Flower Road", and in another time and space, the duel between the two drama bones "Huang Bo" and "Xu Zheng" is also very classic.
"Mr. Hu ......"
At this time, Ma Ye, who was sitting in the camp of "Heart Flower Road", stood up and said weakly: "The role I want to try is Geng Hao, and I just happened to prepare this scene, can I play it with Brother Jian?"
