Following.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Tiantongyuan Community.

Originally, Lin Xiaoguang wanted to take his assistant Liang Guoer to visit Zhang Jizhong, but Liang Guoer was still busy preparing for the "Lin Xiaoguang National Fan Conference" in the magic capital these days, as if he was lacking in skills.

So, Lin Xiaoguang bought two bottles of expensive red wine and a few Chinese cigarettes, and went directly to Zhang Jizhong's house to visit.

Of course, this is what Zhang Jizhong himself meant, not Lin Xiaoguang himself who took the initiative to visit him, he originally thought that he was going to audition for the crew or something, but who knows, Zhang Jizhong simply asked him to come to his home.

"Ding-dong-ding-dong......"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

"Ah...... Hello, is this director Zhang Jizhong's house?"

"Yes, you are Lin Xiaoguang, you look really talented, you look more handsome than on TV, yo...... Why did you bring gifts, it's too outward, just people come. ”

"What you want, a little greeting gift, not a respect......"

As he spoke, Zhang Jizhong's wife Fan Xinman opened the door and welcomed Lin Xiaoguang in, took the gift in his hand, turned around and shouted into the house: "Old Zhang, Xiaoguang is here." ”

In other words, this Fan Xinman is a typical Jiangnan girl, born on the shore of West Lake in Hangzhou, and looks about 30 years old, between a young woman and a mature woman.

When he first entered the door, Lin Xiaoguang saw Fan Xinman for the first time, and thought that Fan Xinman was the bearded daughter or daughter-in-law.

Zhang Jizhong's house is very large, as soon as he walked into the living room, Lin Xiaoguang was attracted by the large wooden table in front of him, nearly 3 meters long solid wood table in front of him, clear and elegant texture, natural edge skin, the whole large board table looks majestic and atmospheric, the overall style of this house is on paper.

Walking through the living room, Lin Xiaoguang passed by Zhang Jizhong's study under the guidance of Fan Xinman.

Someone once said that depending on how much knowledge a person has, it depends on how many books he has, and when he passed by the study, Lin Xiaoguang saw a dazzling array of books, and a neat and elegant desk added a lot to this study.

In the end, Lin Xiaoguang came to the reception room, the furnishings of the reception room are simple to the extreme, it is a long table, on which tea sets are placed, and the whole room looks simple and generous.

Just when Lin Xiaoguang sighed and looked around in the room.

The sound of steady footsteps came from the hallway.

I saw that Zhang Jizhong, who was 1.85 meters tall, had a "Marx"-style beard, and a "chivalrous" style, walked into the reception room and saw Lin Xiaoguang, and said flatly: "Come on, sit down!"

After a few pleasantries, the two sides took their respective seats.

Fan Xinman sat on the chair next to Zhang Jizhong and began to boil water to make tea.

Seriously, with Fan Xinman's appearance and age, Lin Xiaoguang is really embarrassed to call her aunt, feeling that she is old.

If she is called sister or sister-in-law, Lin Xiaoguang is afraid that she will be beaten by Zhang Jizhong.

Sitting on a chair in the living room, Lin Xiaoguang asked solemnly, "Director Zhang, I don't know what to call your wife?"

Zhang Jizhong and his wife glanced at each other, and Zhang Jizhong said calmly: "Xiaoguang, it stands to reason that my wife was also a director before marrying me, you can call her a director, or call her a teacher." ”

Zhang Jizhong's words are true, his wife Fan Xinman is not only a director, but also a CCTV host, which can be said to be multi-tasking, talented and beautiful.

As for Zhang Jizhong himself, the reason why many people call him Director Zhang is because he used to be a director, but in fact, few people know that Zhang Jizhong is more famous in this circle as a producer.

For a long time, in the film and television industry, the "producer" is a rather mysterious role, everyone can see the actors in front of the camera, pay attention to the screenwriters and directors behind the camera, but few people know what role a producer plays in the preparation of a film and television drama, filming and finally landing on the big and small screens.

For Zhang Jizhong, the producer is actually using the limited cost to maximize the value of a film......

This can also understand why Zhang Jizhong, as a producer, had to carry out endless casting hype before filming "Condor", it is obvious that the show's investment in advertising and marketing, he has earned enough attention from the world without spending a penny.

In fact, as early as the early nineties, Zhang Jizhong filmed the part of the boss's "Three Kingdoms" in the southern expedition and the northern war, including the seven captures of Meng Huo, the Northern Expedition, the capture of Jiang Wei, the scolding of Wang Lang, the empty city plan, Wuzhangyuan and other most classic plots in the entire Three Kingdoms.

Moreover, all the war scenes that appear in the opening song of "Three Kingdoms" except for the Battle of Chibi are taken from this chapter.

In addition, the nominal chief producer of the boss "Water Margin" is Ren Dahui, who is actually led by Zhang Jizhong.

As for "The Years of Burning Passion", which Zhang Jizhong served as a producer two years ago, it is one of the most classic military TV series not invested and filmed by CCTV......

Therefore, if he likes hype, he likes hype, Zhang Jizhong still has real skills, not to mention, he is now a living "golden signboard" in the entertainment industry, as long as he is a producer, he has never lost money, and he can help investors make a lot of money.

Zhang Jizhong took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "Xiaoguang, I won't tell you, I just went to Beiying today. ”

Dare to be affectionate, and go to Beiying to hype it up again? Lin Xiaoguang thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say so.

"Have you found the right candidate?" Lin Xiaoguang asked with interest.

With his growing understanding of Zhang Jizhong, Lin Xiaoguang is not worried at all, Zhang Jizhong will choose the actor of "Condor" Yang Guo among the students of Beiying.

As of today, the final round of auditions for "The Condor Heroes" in Beiying and Chinese Opera has ended, although it still attracts a large number of "Yang Guo" candidates to audition, but Zhang Jizhong is not excited at all when he talks about the feeling after the "interview".

Especially those college students from the Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama, Zhang Jizhong felt particularly incredible: "Tell me, they are all sophomores and juniors and still don't know how to act, I really don't know what they learned in school?"

In fact, for the college students of the Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama, of course they know what the opportunity of "Condor" means, and when the opportunity really comes, they will definitely not pass by it because of the problem of poor basic skills.

Lin Xiaoguang knew very well in his heart, he felt that Zhang Jizhong went to Beiying to be idle and had nothing to show, and he never thought of picking a newcomer to play Yang Guo.

As we all know, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu are the most difficult characters to determine, as long as the right people are chosen, this version of "The Condor Heroes" is half the success.

Now that Xiaolongnu has set Liu Yifei, she is just the male protagonist Yang Guo.

However, in Zhang Jizhong's eyes, compared with other candidates who are not well-known, the images of Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan are a step higher, but they are far from being satisfactory to the role of Yang Guo.

"Do you know why I hesitated for so long among the two actors, Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan?"

Lin Xiaoguang said calmly: "I don't know, please explain it to the director, Xiaoguang listened." ”

It's one thing to be willing to listen, but as for believing it or not, Lin Xiaoguang also has his own measure.

Zhang Jizhong nodded with satisfaction and said bluntly: "Let me tell you, both of them have the same problem as Yang Guo, that is, they are more than heavy and not naughty enough." Yang Guo is a complex, he was a ruffian slippery boy before he broke his arm, he had a righteous and kind side, and he also had a very dissolute side, but instead of being annoying, he was fascinating, so the performance span was really large, and it was not easy to grasp the proportions, neither too serious, nor too frivolous. They also need to ponder the taste of Yang Guo. ”

Although Lin Xiaoguang has long known the ability to fool people with a big beard, Lin Xiaoguang has to admit that what the bearded man said is indeed reasonable, and he can't find the slightest fault.

Finally, Zhang Jizhong also told Lin Xiaoguang that among the many girls competing for the role of Xiaolongnu, no one can surpass Liu Yifei, so the investor finally selected Liu Yifei.

This sentence is deceitful.

Liu Yifei is not bad, whether she has brought capital to join the group is another matter, but it is not true that there is no one who is more suitable for the role of Xiaolongnu than her among hundreds of millions of girls.

However, Zhang Jizhong still expressed some worries about Liu Yifei's performance: "The ideal little dragon girl in my mind is a cold but not glamorous type, she has to be very careful, if the actor only has a beautiful face, but can't reveal the rich and complex layers of her heart, then this little dragon girl will be a boring vase." Moreover, the actors who play Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu must also fit the feeling of 'chivalrous couple', and it is not easy to find such a pair of golden boys and girls who are perfectly matched. ”

"Among so many competitors, when I saw your real person today, I felt that you were a pretty good candidate......" Zhang Jizhong paused.

"Thank you, Director......"

didn't wait for Lin Xiaoguang to finish speaking, Zhang Jizhong continued: "However, Huang Xiaoming is also very good, he called me today and told me that he is willing to spend 1 million to buy this role with me, and he will not receive a penny, and I haven't replied to him yet." ”

"Xiaoguang, what about you? Tell me what you think, do you really want to play the role of Yang Guo?"

"......" Isn't this nonsense, Lin Xiaoguang doesn't know what to say anymore.

In order to shoot "The Condor Heroes", Huang Xiaoming was already stunned, and this beard also fell into the eyes of money......

At this moment, Fan Xinman made an excuse very interestingly, got up and left the living room, leaving only Lin Xiaoguang and Zhang Jizhong staring at each other.

Lin Xiaoguang asked uncertainly: "Director Zhang, if I am willing to spend 1 million, you can guarantee that I can win the role of Yang Guo?"

"Of course, it's all a matter of my words. ”

"What about Huang Xiaoming, how do you explain to him?"

Zhang Jizhong smiled proudly: "This is not simple, I will have a meeting with the investor tomorrow, saying that the investor chose you, don't like Huang Xiaoming, oppose Huang Xiaoming, don't you have it?"

Lin Xiaoguang thought about it and couldn't help but sneer: "Hehe, the big guy who dares to love has been fighting for a long time, and in the end, it is the director who speaks!"
