Chapter 85: Casting (Part II)
Although Zhou Xingchi's performance is a little exaggerated, it is currently the most outstanding one among all the interviewed artists for the role of Chang Huan, Wang Zheng feels that with his performance, as long as he practices more in the plot of the shooting, he can be competent, but Zeng Zhiwei did not express his position, and also asked Stephen Chow to go back and wait for the notice, Zeng Zhiwei is the director, Wang Zheng is not good to say, continue to audition for the next role.
In the play, He Liyu is a movie fan, and Chang Huan is a pair of happy enemies, due to an accident Chang Huan became crazy, all his girlfriends avoided him, only He Liyu stayed alone to concentrate on serving, originally in the name of taking care of Chang Huan to take revenge, but her love for Chang Huan made her unable to do it, He Liyu is a woman who dares to love and hate in the play, and the competition for such infatuated roles is also very large, Qi Meizhen, Zeng Daqian, and Zhang Manyu, who are known as the five beauties of wireless in the competition, are particularly prominent.
Qi Meizhen also graduated from the tenth phase of the artist training class, and is now the host of the emcee of "Happy Tonight", she has acted in many dramas in the past two years, so her acting skills are outstanding, but Zeng Zhiwei feels that she is too beautiful and does not fit the whole temperament of He Liyu in the play. Zeng Huaqian is a newcomer with no acting skills, graduated from the twelfth session of the wireless artist training class, and just started to be the host of TVB's children's program "430 Shuttle" this year.
Zhang Manyu has quite obvious advantages over the previous two, not to mention that the role of He Liyu in the script was created by Zhang Manyu herself, and her ability to surpass the former in terms of her beauty alone, although she is also a newcomer who has just signed a contract with Wireless as the runner-up of Sister Hong Kong, but in terms of personal temperament, it is undoubtedly Zhang Manyu who is the most promising to play He Liyu.
After He Liyu's role audition was completed, the audition for the role of Liang Wushuang was then staged, Wang Zheng thought that this role must be played by Mao Shunjun, because Mao Shunjun has been polishing the TV of ATV's predecessor Lili for many years, and Liang Wushuang is the best choice for both acting skills and personal temperament, but the final result is very surprising, Weng Meiling, who has already joined the crew of "Crazy 83", actually came to audition for the role of Liang Wushuang at the same time. Zeng Zhiwei was very satisfied with her performance, and in the end, Liang Wushuang's actor became a suspense.
Following the small surprise that Weng Meiling appeared, the accident was then staged, during the casting of Cheng's sister-in-law, Guan Zhilin, who was originally at home with his mother to learn to cook, appeared in the competitive team, with the limelight of the heroine of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", Guan Zhilin overwhelmed Wu Junru, who also came to audition, and easily moved the director Zeng Zhiwei, but Wang Zheng felt that it was a little inappropriate, and she had seen too much of the goddess played by Guan Zhilin in later generations, and the image of Cheng's sister-in-law, a housewife, she may not be able to control it.
"Are you sure you want to play the role of sister-in-law Cheng?"
As soon as Guan Zhilin's performance in the audition room ended, Wang Zheng asked her questions. Zeng Zhiwei's gaze at the two was slightly ambiguous, and Fang Yihua also looked at the two with very rare gossip eyes.
Guan Zhilin smiled at Wang Zhengyan and asked rhetorically, "Why not?" ”
Wang Zheng was a little speechless when he was asked rhetorically, and could only explain: "The role of sister-in-law Cheng needs to be ugly, which will damage your image as a jade girl, are you sure you can do it?" ”
Guan Zhilin has been walking in the image of a jade girl since her debut, Wang Zheng wanted to scare her away with words, but Guan Zhilin didn't care about playing ugly, but said seriously: "An actor's duty is to perform the character in every script, how can he refuse to play because of the beauty and ugliness of the role?" I'm a professional actor! ”
Wang Zheng was speechless by her, so he could only shut up with some embarrassment.
Seeing that the two of them were no longer speechless, Zeng Zhiwei, who was watching the excitement on the side, hurriedly coughed and said, "Ahem, Miss Guan, your performance is very good, the company will release today's audition results in three days, you can go back!" ”
"Okay, goodbye Manager Fang and Director Zeng! Goodbye, Director Wang! ”
Before leaving, Guan Zhilin winked mischievously at Wang Zheng, and was able to make Director Wang speechless, which made her very proud.
Seeing Zeng Zhiwei and Fang Yihua looking at him ambiguously, Wang Zheng said angrily: "Continue to the audition for the next role, and finish it early." ”
Originally, Wang Zheng hoped that Zhou Yanfa could play this role, but his schedule was full, and the people who came to compete for this role were all wireless newcomers, and occasionally a few familiar faces were not suitable because they were too old, until the end of the audition, Zeng Zhiwei did not find a satisfactory candidate.
"The artist's audition is over, and the rest of the things will be handed over to the two of you, just tell me in advance what resources you need!"
After the audition, Fang Yihua left a scene and left first, Wang Zheng and Zeng Zhiwei had to stay and work overtime to determine the starring lineup of the whole play.
"The role of Chang Shu is played by Zhang Guorong, what do you think?"
In a conference room, Zeng Zhiwei asked Wang Zheng's opinion, and the latter said lazily: "You are the director, you have the final say!" ”
"Then Zhang Guorong."
Zeng Zhiwei nodded, wrote the name of the leading actor Zhang Guorong next to Chang Shu, the role of the script, and then said: "I think the role of Liang Wushuang is very suitable for Mao Shunjun and Weng Meiling, and it is really difficult to choose." ”
Wang Zheng sat on a boss's chair, crossed Erlang's legs and said very leisurely: "You pick up the artist files of the two now." ”
Zeng Zhiwei did so in confusion and asked, "Then what?" ”
"Close your eyes!"
"And then?"
"Now answer me, who was the first person that came to your mind?"
"Zhao Yazhi."
"Pick, it's salty and wet enough, I said the file in your hand."
"Oh, Weng Meiling!"
Wang Zheng shook Erlang's legs and said proudly: "That's it." ”
"Is this all right?" Zeng Zhiwei has a black line.
"Trust your own judgment, Fat Boy."
Zeng Zhiwei's choice once again changed history, Wang Zheng liked to hear it, and the unknown world was full of imagination.
Seeing Wang Zheng's ingenious judgment method, Zeng Zhiwei's next choice was much faster.
Zeng Zhiwei: "Chang Huan is played by Zhou Xingchi. ”
Wang Zheng: "Okay! ”
"He Liyu is played by Zhang Manyu."
"Okay!"
"Sister-in-law Cheng is played by Guan Zhilin."
"Not quite right."
"I think it's appropriate."
"That's fine!"
"Chang Man, you will be played by Ah Zheng."
"Okay! Wait, what? I? ”
Hearing this, Wang Zheng hurriedly got down from the boss's chair and asked with some disbelief.
Zeng Zhiwei had a fat face, a little helpless: "Isn't there no suitable actor, I have seen your performance in Ghost Blowing the Lamp, and you will definitely be able to play the role of Chang Man!" ”
Wang Zheng said angrily: "Big brother, I'm only 21 years old, you asked me to play Zhang Guorong's eldest brother, are you sure you're not joking?" ”
Zeng Zhiwei tried to make his smiling face more serious, and said: "Of course it's not a joke, this drama is a nonsensical comedy, as long as you make up simply, don't say that you just play the boss, you can play the father!" ”
Seeing that Zeng Zhiwei really didn't look like a joke, Wang Zheng returned to the boss's chair and said lightly: "Okay, you are the director, you have the final say." ”
