The current Jin Dong is far from being the proud appearance of his career and family after starring in "The Pretender", "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Exquisite Ancient City" and "The First Half of My Life".

As an actor, although there is always a little hope in his heart to be able to stand on the big screen, but since his graduation, except for "Autumn Rain" in 2004, which was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Huabiao Awards, Jin Dong has nothing to do with the big screen.

Even the year he was nominated for the Huabiao Award, he was already twenty-eight years old.

A twenty-eight-year-old best newcomer......

I really don't know if this is a compliment or a mockery for him.

After hearing Zong Shuai's words, although none of the three people sitting opposite him were older than him, Jin Dong still stood up very politely, took off the 'bottom of the ink bottle' on the bridge of his nose, and bowed to Xue Xiaolu and the others.

"Thank you, three teachers. ”

There was no reluctance in the whole action......

…………

After Jin Dong left the audition room, Xue Xiaolu and the others did not immediately ask the staff to summon the last auditioner, and several people sat together and began to exchange their views on the audition just now.

This kind of treatment is not unique to Jin Dong, anyone who can be ranked in the bottom five in today's audition can basically be treated with this treatment.

"Sister Xiaolu, what do you think of the actor just now?"

Although Li Mo also learned Jin Dong's name from Deng Chao's mouth, after discussing with Zong Shuai, in the end, Li Mo still unified the voice of the relevant personnel, and only said that it was a candidate recommended by the team of Hou Hongliang, a partner of Molong Media, so at this time, Zong Shuai opened his mouth to care about the result, but it was normal for people to raise it.

"Well, overall, it feels pretty good," Xue Xiaolu said a cliché first, and then pondered a little before continuing to speak, "It can be seen that he has made full preparations for today's audition, and his grasp of the script and character image is also very accurate......

After a pause, Xue Xiaolu made a concluding speech, "If he can maintain the state and attitude he had at today's audition throughout the filming process, I don't think there is anything wrong with him." ”

Zong Shuai nodded, indicating that he had understood Xue Xiaolu's attitude, and then he turned his gaze to Li Mo, "Xiaomo, what do you think?"

"I think there is nothing wrong with Jin Dong in terms of individual character adaptability. Li Mo first affirmed Xue Xiaolu's opinion, and then changed his head, "But Yifei's state just now was not too good, so relatively speaking, I really didn't see much of the chemistry between the hero and heroine......"

Hearing Li Mo's words, Liu Yifei couldn't help but blush.

Because she had already played with three male actors before, when it was her turn to partner with Jin Dong, Liu Yifei herself knew that it was difficult for her to be fully dedicated......

However, Li Mo's words also reminded Zong Shuai that as a person who directly partnered with Jin Dong, Liu Yifei's feelings could also provide a certain reference value, so he also wanted to hear Liu Yifei's opinion, "Yifei, how do you feel?"

"Well, acting skills or something, Director Li and Sister Xiaolu just said the same, I'll just talk about my feelings. ”

"When Mr. Jin was performing just now, I felt that the person sitting opposite me seemed to be really an honest, decadent, middle-aged man with a story......"

"There's a sense of belief in him. ”

Based on the opinions of several people, Zong Shuai could obviously feel that Li Mo and the others were more inclined to hand over the role of Hao Zhi to Jin Dong.

But now there is a candidate recommended by Wang Xiaoming outside, who is also his classmate - Zu Feng, if Jin Dong is rashly decided now, it is really unfair to Zu Feng......

After thinking about it a little, Zong Shuai finally decided to make a decision after watching the performances of all the contestants.

"Yifei, you continue to take a break, there is still the last auditionee, and you will have to work hard to play with him later, if Zu Feng's performance is the same as the previous candidates, then we will finalize and hand over the role of Hao Zhi to Jin Dong. ”

…………

With Zu Feng's audition over, Zong Shuai and others basically made a decision.

As long as Jin Dong himself and his agent don't make any excessive demands, the role of Hao Zhi can basically be played by him.

Of course, this news will not be immediately communicated to the actors.

Whether it is from the perspective of avoiding the actor's self-aggrandizement, or preventing the agent from asking for a sky-high price, this news will be controlled within a small range.

Even if Zong Shuai planned to notify Hou Hongliang in advance, it would only be on the penultimate day before the deadline......

After all, what is usually too easy to get is rarely cherished.

……

Since the completion of the editing of "Get Out, Tumor", Li Mo has been immersed in the crew of "Beijing Meets Seattle" for most of the month from the end of February to mid-March.

In the name of a producer, he does the work of a casting director.

Originally, Li Mo also planned to rush to carry out the preparatory work for "Happy Death Day" as much as possible in the month before the release of "Tumor".

As a result, not only was he temporarily arrested by Zong Shuai, but the behind-the-scenes team of the crew that was originally prepared for "Happy Death Day" now seems to be most likely to be pulled to Xue Xiaolu's side by Zong Shuai, who 'used power for personal gain'......

Of course, Li Mo can understand this.

First of all, the budget of "Beijing Meets Seattle" is more than double that of "Happy Death Day".

Regardless of whether it is public or private, Li Mo and Zong Shuai do not want "North West" to become the Waterloo of Molong Media.

Secondly, Xue Xiaolu's qualifications are too shallow for controlling the crew.

Generally speaking, directors who have been famous for many years usually have a few behind-the-scenes team members who they often work with and have outstanding abilities, but Xue Xiaolu's directing of "North West" this time is completely the decision of the top management of Molong Media.

In this case, if she is assigned a new behind-the-scenes team that has just been formed, not to mention whether Xue Xiaolu, who has neither qualifications nor achievements, can control it, even if Zong Shuai escorts the whole process by her side, I am afraid that she may not be able to control such a situation.

Although the crew that is now handed over to her is not the top in the industry, at least most of the staff have held positions in "Hypnosis Master" and "Chinese Partner", and they may not have much awe for Xue Xiaolu, but as long as Zong Shuai speaks, these people will still be honest and obedient.

In desperation, Li Mo had to ask Zong Shuai to go to the crew of "North West" to escort Xue Xiaolu first, at least let her go on the track, and then join the preparatory work of "Happy Death Day".

The good news is that because Jin Dong and Liu Yifei both said that they need a certain amount of preparation time before they can put into the role, the start time of the crew of "North West" has also been set after mid-May this year.

Having said that, although Zong Shuai has always said that Li Mo should be named producer, in the crew of "Happy Death Day", Li Mo really realized what it means to be a producer and director......

Of course, after the preparation of the crew began, in addition to caring about the situation of the behind-the-scenes team, the most important job was to implement the situation of the actors.

Because of this, he called Zhang Tianai and decided to find out about her recent preparations first.
