Chapter 422: The Intricate Entertainment Industry

In "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", Jingqiu is a simple and well-behaved, strong and reserved girl.

Although Huayi currently has first-line actresses such as Li Bingbing and Zhou Xun, they are all too old, if it was Zhou Xun who played Du Xinyu during the period of "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind", he might be able to give it a try, but unfortunately time flies and time flies.

What female celebrities are most afraid of facing is getting older and aging.

Therefore, even though the Huayi brothers are full of talents today, they can't pick out an actress who looks simple and well-behaved, strong and reserved.

Moreover, as a director, Lin Xiaoguang is extremely demanding on the heroine Jingqiu, and also requires her to look as clean as a blank piece of paper.

There is no doubt that Lin Xiaoguang wants to find a clean actress like a blank sheet of paper in Huayi Company, which is tantamount to asking for fish from a tree, and the difficulty of this can be imagined......

Morning.

The president of Huayi Brothers runs a company.

After several days of repeated discussions, Lin Xiaoguang and Huang Zhonglei preliminarily decided on the main roles in the play.

"The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", the main characters are as follows:

The actor of the third actor - Lin Xiaoguang.

The actress Jingqiu is played by——?

Jingqiu's mother is played by Xi Meijuan.

Wei Hong's actor - Li Yue.

The actor of Wei Hong's mother - Lu Liping.

Captain Zhang's actor - Zhang Guoguo.

Looking at the only vacant heroine's name on the paper, Huang Zhonglei frowned and said, "Xiaoguang, will your casting requirements be a little too much?"

Lin Xiaoguang shook his head, and then said seriously: "Brother Zhonglei, this is the role of the movie, if you can't find an actress suitable for Jingqiu, I'd rather not make this movie." ”

was rejected by Lin Xiaoguang one after another, Huang Zhonglei was a little depressed, and looked at Lin Xiaoguang in confusion: "Jingqiu's casting is really that important?"

"Of course, she is the most critical soul of the movie "Hawthorn Tree", if this movie wants to be successful, then you must choose the right actress, Brother Zhonglei, you can't change tricks every day to give me a newcomer audition in order to support our company's own artists. ”

"Xiaoguang, you have wronged me, the people I recommend to you are the most promising newcomers in our company, but they are indiscriminately filling. ”

Huang Zhonglei sighed as he spoke, then took out the cigar box from the desk drawer, first threw a cigar to Lin Xiaoguang, and then ordered another for himself.

Originally, Huang Zhonglei also wanted to praise the female artists of his own company like Lin Xiaoguang praised Cheng Yanxi at the beginning, but the few female newcomers he recommended did not get Lin Xiaoguang's nod.

Lin Xiaoguang's attitude of not advancing is very nerve-wracking to Huang Zhonglei.

Seeing that Huang Zhonglei seemed to be a little emotional, Lin Xiaoguang touched his cigar and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's my little brother that I wronged you, I don't actually mean to complain about you, I just think that the female newcomers you recommended to me, although they don't look bad and their temperament is okay, but their faces are not recognizable." ”

After Huang Zhonglei took a sharp puff of cigar, he spit out a wisp of enchanting smoke rings, and said angrily: "Why are their faces unrecognizable? ”

Lin Xiaoguang stuffed the cigar into his mouth and said vaguely: "Anyway... I don't think it's any good. ”

"Bell bell bell ......"

Just when Lin Xiaoguang and Huang Zhonglei were arguing about the heroine of the movie, a phone call came in from the front desk.

Huang Zhonglei held a cigar in one hand, picked up the phone with the other, and after listening for a while, Fang said, "Okay, you let him come to my office." ”

Watching Huang Zhonglei hang up the phone, Lin Xiaoguang asked with interest, "Who?"

Huang Zhonglei blurted out: "Zhang Guoguo." ”

"What is he doing here?" Lin Xiaoguang muttered.

Huang Zhonglei: "It's definitely coming to us to talk about cooperation." ”

There is a saying that almost all of those who can mix in the entertainment industry are human spirits.

Whether it is sealing a small tank or Zou Xingchi, they are all mercenary businessmen.

Lin Xiaoguang just got the film and television copyright of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" a few days ago, Zhang Guoguo didn't know where to get the news, and sent a sum of money to the light and shadow studio, and also took the initiative to invite Lin Xiaoguang to play, expressing his willingness to make a cameo appearance in the role of Captain Zhang in the film.

A senior like Zhang Guoguo, who just put down his body and recommended himself to himself, Lin Xiaoguang was embarrassed to refuse.

Although Zhang Guoguo has hardly made movies in recent years, his status in this circle is definitely no worse than that of Feng Xiaowan.

If Huang Zhongjun is an entertainment tycoon, then Zhang Guoguo is at least an entertainment tycoon.

In other words, Zhang Guoguo became famous at the end of the 20th century, and the "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview" series that played a crucial role in the process of becoming famous.

And the trader behind this series is Deng Jianguo, and his superstar film and television.

Speaking of superstar film and television and Deng Jianguo, I believe everyone is familiar with Lin Xiaoguang in the TV series "Merry Genius Ji Xiaolan" that he invested, and performed the most handsome and Shen in history for the audience and friends.

To get back to business, after finishing the Kangxi series, Deng Jianguo wanted to do the Ji Xiaolan series, but Zhang Guoguo refused on the grounds of schedule discord.

Turning his head, Zhang Guoli and screenwriter Zou Jingzhi took refuge in Beijing Yahuan, a well-known producer in the Beijing circle, Bian Xiaojun, and made the "Iron Tooth Bronze Tooth Ji Xiaolan" series, which crushed Deng Jianguo's investment and Lin Xiaoguang's role in "Merry Genius Ji Xiaolan".

In 2001, Zhang Guoguo still disliked his old partner when he was interviewed, "Deng Jianguo is too uneducated, too classless, and too vulgar." He should quit the hype like a drug. ”

In addition to Zhang Guoguo, Deng Jie, Liang Tian and others also stood up and bombarded Deng Jianguo.

Deng Jianguo lost the core support of Kangxi's big IP, and slowly got out of the circle.

What is more ironic and ironic is that Zhang Guoguo stood up and bombarded Deng Jianguo's love for hype, but turned around and tied his fate for the next ten years with Feng Xiaowan and Hua Yi, who are the favorite hypes in your circle.

However, unlike other high-profile star actors, Zhang Guoguo belongs to the type of low-key and cold treatment of everything, making a fortune and doing big things in a muffled voice.

In addition, Zhang Guoguo has met many nobles along the way, and Han Sanping of China Film Group and old-school director Mi Jiashan are two of them.

When the three met in Wei, they worked together in Emeishan Studio in their early years, when Han Sanping was just an ordinary lighting worker, Mijiashan was an artist, Zhang Zhang Guoli was a group performer, and the three brothers often drank tea together in the teahouse in Qingyang District and set up the Longmen Array Kan Dashan.

Han Sanping's father served as the director of the Provincial Forestry Department during the cultural period, and served as the director of the Provincial Science and Technology Commission and the Standing Committee of the Provincial Advisory Committee after ten years of turmoil;

also experienced the turbulent years, but the circumstances were completely different, the two old friends both went to college in the turbulent years when college students were scarce, and also went to film school to study directing, while Zhang Guoguo, a civilian whose father was imprisoned in the cowshed, did not catch up with anything.

However, later, the two old friends who got the "approval of the leadership" returned from their studies and their status rose sharply, but they did not help Zhang Guoguo.

Especially Mi Jiashan, his movies often find Zhang Guoguo as the male lead.

For a long time, Zhang Guoli was an assistant director for these two people.

As for Han Sanping of China Film Group, he has always been close to Zhang Guoguo, and even now, he has always had close contacts with Zhang Guoguo.

For example, Han Sanping gave Ning Hao a sum of money to shoot "Crazy Stone", which included Zhang Guoguo's credit.

Interestingly, Ning Hao's movie "Crazy Racing", which is currently being filmed intensively, has not yet been released, but although the low-key Zhang Guoguo does not have a theater in his hands, he has also obtained 10% of the investment share, which is almost the same as Han Sanping's investment share.

If it weren't for Han Sanping's help, how could Zhang Guoguo get such a share of investment?

Now, if you say that Zhang Guoguo and Han Sanping don't worship brothers, does anyone have faith?

Therefore, unless Lin Xiaoguang ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, he would refuse this cooperation with Zhang Guoguo.
