Chapter 547: Timely Rain
Zhang Chu didn't bring the cat with him when he returned to Yanjing this time, but left the matcha in Jiangcheng and brought it back the next time he went back to record the show.
There was a dull smell in the room, Zhang Chu turned on the air circulation, and then called the housekeeping company to send someone to clean up the room, and took advantage of the fact that matcha was not there to sort out those flying cat hairs and littered toys.
In July and August, the weather in Yanjing is hot, and many people stay indoors and don't want to go out at all, and the plants outside are wilted by the sun.
"I have to call and ask Jiang Hua, what should I pay attention to in this audition, but don't make any jokes at that time!"
He doesn't know many people in the entertainment industry, and only Jiang Hua, a fragile and sensitive bearded man, can help.
Jiang Hua, as Xu Ji's assistant director, must have a lot of inside information, so he just took this opportunity to ask.
Zhang Chu sat in the study and dialed Jiang Hua's phone.
"Hey, who are you?"
"Eh, Teacher Jiang Hua, I'm Zhang Chu, you didn't save my phone?"
Jiang Hua, who was above the clubhouse, thought for a second before reacting, "Oh, oh, it's you, I didn't save your mobile phone number." ”
Such a straightforward answer really made Zhang Chu speechless, didn't he exchange mobile phone numbers at the theater at the beginning?
The feelings are only saved by themselves, but this goods are not saved!
For the sake of inquiring about the news with him next, Zhang Chu decided to let him go, "Aren't you going to participate in the audition for "Farewell My Concubine" tomorrow, is there anything I need to prepare in advance?"
Jiang Hua said very directly: "Don't prepare, anyway, you don't have the right to decide, so you should be the mascot in the past." ”
"It's easy for you to say this without friends, but I'm the investor and the author of the original book, if I don't agree, can the protagonist decide?"
"That's right, anyway, you're sitting on the judges' side, it's you who chooses the actors, not them. ”
I couldn't talk at all this day, and Zhang Chu felt that he probably chose the wrong person.
"Then you keep busy, I'll ask the rest of the people to inquire. ”
"See you tomorrow, bye-bye. ”
After Jiang Hua hung up the phone, he put the phone back in his trouser pocket and didn't take it to heart.
At this time, the rest of the people in the box asked curiously: "Director Jiang, who are you talking to on the phone, and you will actually participate in the audition for Farewell My Concubine." ”
"Don't worry, it's not an actor, it's the author Zhang Chu. ”
Director Xu Ji is a person who doesn't get into the oil and salt, these agents want to publicize their artists into the audition and even win the role, they can only find the people around Xu Ji, obviously Jiang Hua is the best way.
The content of the movie "Farewell My Concubine" has not been exposed, but with the subject matter and the lineup of directors and screenwriters, it has already made the brokerage companies in the Chinese entertainment industry very popular!
This is the most top-level resource, as long as you can play a role in a movie of this level, even if you are not the protagonist, it is enough to leave a mark in the film industry.
Especially for those actors who want to develop further, this kind of literary film is clearly going to win awards, and on the road to becoming a superstar, it is not enough to have a box office, but also to make people recognize their acting skills.
Xu Ji's "Psychological Crime" filmed this year is not only a big hit at the box office, but the acting skills of the two leading actors are also highly praised, many film critics and insiders think that the two leading actors are likely to get the actor soft, and the best supporting actor is almost in the bag, and the double yolk egg of the actor will not surprise people!
They are not very optimistic about the box office prospects of "Farewell My Concubine", the current film market is very impetuous, and it is difficult for literary films to achieve high box office.
If it is to pursue a high box office, it is obvious that this kind of film will not be chosen.
"Zhang Chu?"
Lin Yongshen's eyes lit up after hearing this name, how could he forget this important person!
is also an audition, if the actors under their own command see the content of "Farewell My Concubine", they will definitely prepare for a targeted manner, which is better than not knowing anything.
Tomorrow is the audition, and now he got up quietly and said, "You all drink first, I'll go to the bathroom." ”
After walking out of the box, Lin Yongshen quickly picked up his mobile phone and texted his assistant, worried that the sound of the call would alert other competitors.
He typed and wrote: Zhouzhou, you hurry up and find the contact information of Zhang Chu or the publishing company, and be sure to get the original version of "Farewell My Concubine". After you get your hands on it, you ask Cai Zelun to stay up all night and finish reading the content related to the role. If you can, you can tentatively ask about all the relationships, mental changes and character habits of Zhang Chu's character!
Lin Yongshen only hated that the time was too short, not to mention that he would get it in such a short time, and he had to go through the whole book, he only hoped that the book would not have too many pages.
"Keep it secret, keep it safe. ”
Director Xu Ji's studio did not announce the specific content, but only invited young actors around the age of 30 to audition, and there were also a bunch of supporting role invitations of different ages.
Five years ago, Lin Yongshen signed Cai Zelun and led the actor who graduated from the drama to work hard all the way from a youth idol drama to the film industry.
Although his acting skills are good, the resources behind him are too poor, and most of the directors in the Beijing circle will not consider such actors, so he will deal with an assistant director and want to stuff Cai Zelun into it.
The protagonist must be a luxury, but if you play an important supporting role, you can try it!
Making money now must be making TV series to make money, but the style of the film industry is higher.
To do a full set of plays, Lin Yongshen was just about to go out in the toilet when he heard a person coming in from the next cubicle, whispering on the phone with others.
"Alu, I will give you an important task now, immediately contact Zhang Chu, the author of "Farewell My Concubine", and he will also participate in tomorrow's audition. If you can get Zhang Chu's support from there, it will definitely be the best, but if you can't get the content, it's okay. Whatever method you use, make sure you get your hands on it!"
Lin Yongshen frowned, it seems that smart people are not just themselves.
Everyone is a human spirit, and after being reminded by Jiang Hua and Zhang Chu's phone call, they used various means to seize the opportunity.
Jiang Hua is the stone in the toilet, smelly and hard, and he can't get any useful information from his mouth at all.
Fortunately, Zhang Chu appeared at this time, as the original author, the right to speak may not be large, but the right to suggest must be there!
If the author of the original book supports a certain actor, then the director and the producer must also consider it carefully.
Zhang Chu is not a small author who can be oppressed by others, and if he can sell his works to the BBC and Hollywood, he will never let go of the power in his hands easily!
"It seems that this is the breakthrough, I want to see what it has to do with it. ”
Lin Yongshen was not in a hurry to go out, and quickly browsed on his mobile phone address book and WeChat friend list.
