Chapter 118: All the Crew Gear Up (4K Chapter)
Cheng Weiliang, Xu Xiaoming, and Mei Xiaoqing walked into the interview room, Li Saifeng and Zeng Huaqian were already waiting inside, and the candidate for the role of the heroine Shancai will be finalized this afternoon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Wei Liang, the Singaporean actor you are talking about, are you sure you will be able to go to Xiangjiang tomorrow?" Xu Xiaoming asked Cheng Weiliang next to him as he walked.
Cheng Weiliang nodded, "I talked to him on the phone at noon, and after he completed the formalities, he confirmed that he would take tomorrow's plane to Xiangjiang." ”
Mei Xiaoqing took the fax photo given to her by Cheng Weiliang, looked left and right, and felt that the young man was indeed handsome and elegant, and there was a faint melancholy between his eyebrows.
"Wu Dairong was met by chance at an event at a Grand Hotel when I was doing record promotion in Singapore, and I think he is more suitable for temperament than He Jiajing. He Jiajing's face is too handsome and compelling, and his temperament is more difficult to play the melancholy violin prince in the play. Cheng Weiliang explained to Mei Xiaoqing.
He Jiajing is the actor of the hero in "Bao Qingtian" who is familiar to the majority of audiences in the mainland - the royal cat Zhanzhao. Cheng Weiliang felt that Wu Dairong, the handsome son of the 87 version of the ancient dragon martial arts drama "The Peerless Double Pride", and the actor of the revenge swordsman Fu Hongxue in "The Prodigal Son of the Border City", was more suitable than He Jiajing.
Mei Xiaoqing saw that Cheng Weiliang couldn't pick a candidate that day, so she discussed with Xu Xiaoming and transferred He Jiajing, a leading student of ATV who was filming other dramas, to recommend him to play the second male Hua Ze. Unexpectedly, Cheng Weiliang found a candidate a day later.
"Sister Xiaoqing, in fact, I originally selected an actor from your ATV to play the second male lead, but unfortunately, I couldn't make the trip for some reason. Cheng Weiliang suddenly laughed and said.
"Oh?" Mei Xiaoqing was very curious, and even Xu Xiaoming looked at him with interest, and asked, "Which actor from our ATV did he push your invitation?"
Cheng Weiliang smiled and said, "Zhang Guorong." Do you remember him? I've acted in a few plays on your ATV before, right? When I wrote the script, the first thing that came to mind was him. I went to the bar to drink and chat with him last night, and he was also very interested, but unfortunately he belonged to different camps, and the fate was a line, but it was a pity. It's a pity!"
Zhang Guorong left ATV last year. That's right, that's a pretty boy, and he is usually very good at dressing up! But everyone says that he has a more stringent personality, and he is not literary and melancholy at all, Wei Liang, why did you think of him acting in the first place?" Mei Xiaoqing was quite surprised, how could Cheng Weiliang think of finding Zhang Guorong to play?
"Zhang Guorong's personality is relatively out-of-the-box now, but I think his appearance is very suitable, and his acting skills are also very flexible. Play a melancholy violin prince, I believe it will not be difficult for him. Cheng Weiliang said regretfully.
……
The three of them talked, walked into the interview room, and sat on the podium.
"Li Saifeng!" Mei Xiaoqing said.
"Here!" Li Saifeng replied as if he was nervously reflexive.
"Zeng Huaqian!"
"Yes!" Zeng Huaqian also stood up and replied.
Mei Xiaoqing looked at the two girls sitting in front of her, and said solemnly: "There are only two of you interviewers today, you have to take advantage of the opportunity and show your due level later." Today we must decide the final heroine, which of the two of you can finally choose the female number one. It's up to you to behave in a moment. ”
"Yes!" the two girls nodded at the same time, and agreed in a coquettish voice.
"Hello!Please advise!" Zeng Huaqian and Li Saifeng shook hands with each other in a friendly manner.
"Saifeng. Come on!" Outside the door and window, several good sisters of the same ATV door made a fist gesture to Li Saifeng through the glass window to show cheering.
Cheng Weiliang came to the two girls, looked at Zeng Huaqian, and nodded to her with a smile.
Feeling his care, Zeng Huaqian's hands were clenched nervously just now. Start relaxing.
And Li Saifeng was very nervous about Cheng Weiliang's arrival. As soon as she thought of his very disappointed look at her the day before yesterday, Li Saifeng felt that something was wrong. Obviously, after going back yesterday, I privately found good sisters to practice a few emotional scenes in the script together, and my friends said that she acted very well. But when she arrived here today, as soon as he came to her side, she couldn't help but tense her limbs. She looked at Cheng Weiliang and became a little pessimistic, with him here, she didn't want to play normally!
Cheng Weiliang inspected them, and then began to produce exam questions.
The exam question chosen by Cheng Weiliang today is a scene of the climax of the final finale of "Meteor Garden". He felt that the ending of the Taiwan version, Daoming Temple was too inferior, and he dragged the cool handsome at school on weekdays, but without his mother's wings, he was only incompetent, relying on a hunger strike to beg his mother to agree to the two being together.
Cheng Weiliang feels that the children of a wealthy family with a strong personality like Daoming Temple should have their own abilities and their own shining points. He shouldn't be so incompetent!
Therefore, Cheng Weiliang's version of "Meteor Garden" uses the Japanese version of the finale. Daoming Temple made a bet with his mother, if Shancai lost the middle school talent competition with his fiancée Cheng Wenyi, he agreed to study abroad, and her mother let Shancai's family and her friends go.
As a result, Shancai, who didn't know about this bet, despite his great efforts, finally lost in the hands of the referee, although he was defeated.
Daoming Temple fulfilled the promise made with his mother and went abroad to study.
The last episode of the hero and heroine separated, Daoming Temple was going to take a plane to study in the United States early in the morning, and Shancai rushed to the airport to see him off after receiving a letter from Daoming Temple, and confessed to Daoming Temple for the first time "I like you!".
In the Japanese version of "Meteor", Daoming Temple is taking a private plane and is about to take off on the roof of the building, here Cheng Weiliang is changed to Daoming Temple is walking to the boarding gate, Shancai finally arrived at the last moment, and the two said goodbye in the airport hall and complained to each other.
"The Daoming Temple I played was walking towards the boarding gate, and Shancai, who you played, rushed into the waiting hall and chased after him, anxiously shouting the name of the male protagonist. Cheng Weiliang gestured to Zeng Huaqian and Li Saifeng, signaled himself to walk at the other end of the room, and asked them to start running at the door of the room to catch up.
"Are you ready?" Cheng Weiliang ordered.
Li Saifeng nodded, she was the first to perform.
Cheng Weiliang and Li Saifeng entered the role state and began to perform.
After a while, Cheng Weiliang shouted the card, and the performance of the two ended.
Cheng Weiliang nodded, Li Saifeng's state today is much better than the day before yesterday. But it still felt a little worse, and her eyes looking at him were still too vague, and she didn't show the deep emotion of being about to part.
Cheng Weiliang nodded at Xu and Mei on the rostrum, and waved his hand: "Next, Zeng Huaqian is ready!"
Li Saifeng stepped aside a little gloomily, just his own performance. It still didn't reach the best level on weekdays. Perhaps, she and this singer director really have some conflicts!
Zeng Huaqian came to the door of the room, took a deep breath, and began to perform.
The male protagonist Daoming Temple, played by Cheng Weiliang, is striding towards the boarding gate.
Zeng Huaqian started running from the door.
She played the heroine Shancai, who ran in from the door of the waiting hall, and Shancai chased after her, shouting: "Daoming Temple...... Daoming Temple ......"
The mother of Daoming Temple found the Shancai who was chasing behind, and finally relented. Pretending to leave something behind, let Daoming Temple say goodbye to Shancai.
Daoming Temple, played by Cheng Weiliang, seemed to hear Shancai's shout, he turned around and ran to her quickly, scolding her with surprise and some heartache: "Stupid! Why did you come here early in the morning?"
Shancai stood in front of Daoming Temple panting and screaming at him in a choked voice: "Who is the stupid person?! Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"
She sobbed and stepped forward to push Daoming Temple vigorously, "Every time." You're going too far!"
Only one letter remained. didn't say goodbye to her in person, Daoming Temple said a little gloomily: "I'm sorry!"
Then he put his hands in his trouser pockets, turned his head to look around unconsciously, and said to her without words: "You look good in this dress today." ”
"I ...... There's one more very important thing I haven't told you. Shancai stared at Daoming Temple and said suddenly.
"Something important?" asked Daoming Temple suspiciously.
Shancai held back her tears and said, "Thank you! Thank you for always ...... Always willing to believe in me. Put yourself in my shoes!Thank you so much!" As she spoke, she held the Saturn necklace, a token of love given to her by Daoming Temple, in the palm of her hand and carefully handed it to Daoming Temple.
Daoming Temple was originally a little sad, but when he saw this token, he smiled with joy from the bottom of his heart. Take the necklace. I went around behind Shancai and put it on for her with my own hands, "When I come back from studying abroad, I will become a stronger man." But, in the past, now, and in the future, you are the only woman I like! I want to be with you!" Daoming Temple made a firm promise.
After putting on the necklace, he returned to Shancai and said very stinkily, "How is it, are you happy to hear me say that?"
Seeing that he had returned to his previous smug and arrogant appearance, Shancai turned his head and said coquettishly, "I didn't!"
Daoming Temple looked at Shancai and smiled slightly: "Liar! Actually, you already like me, right?"
Shancai looked up at him, with a smile in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Yes, that stupid and willful, domineering and self-righteous Daoming Temple...... But I like it. ”
Daoming Temple heard her take the initiative to confess for the first time, and couldn't hold back her excitement anymore, and before she finished speaking, she stepped forward and hugged Shancai tightly, pressing her head tightly on her chest.
In the crowd of onlookers in the airport hall, the two finally kissed together before parting. (End of the whole play)
……
"Click!", after the rehearsal of the rivalry between Cheng Weiliang and Zeng Huaqian, there was a burst of applause from the side.
After watching a wonderful performance by Cheng Weiliang and Zeng Huaqian, Mei Xiaoqing and Xu Xiaoming gave a heartfelt standing ovation, Mei Xiaoqing said happily: "In the finale just now, the two of you performed so wonderfully! I was almost infected by your parting emotions!"
"Wei Liang, Zeng Huaqian's performance level just now should have reached the acting level of 80 points that you said that the heroine must have 80 points, right? Your requirements are really high, and the requirements of other people's movies are just like that! The TV series we usually shoot are not as high as your requirements!" Mei Xiaoqing laughed at Cheng Weiliang.
Cheng Weiliang smiled, applauded Zeng Huaqian, and said: "I said that I can only ask for 60 points or even lower for the level of other actors, but the heroine must reach the level of 80 points! Hua Nu, you just did it! Very good!"
Receiving praise, Zeng Hua smiled shyly and lowered his head.
Xu Xiaoming also nodded approvingly, he could only feel sorry for his apprentice Li Saifeng, this Zeng Huaqian is indeed more tacit and natural with Cheng Weiliang, and her performance is indeed much better than Li Saifeng! Zeng Huaqian is the best candidate for the female number one.
"You two partners, you really cooperate seamlessly! Professional actors who have acted for several years may not have the level you just had!" Mei Xiaoqing still sighed.
"Sister Xiaoqing, you have won awards! Zeng Huaqian acted very well. Cheng Weiliang coughed embarrassedly, this scene was rehearsed with Zeng Huaqian three times in the morning before it was successful, and the first two times were interrupted because he forgot his lines.
Zeng Huaqian's performance was even better than he originally imagined. The finale scene requires the actors to be emotionally outspoken, and they must express themselves very expressively in their eyes and movements, so that the audience can be moved.
In this important scene, the young Zeng Huaqian can play so well, Cheng Weiliang feels very satisfied. Especially her eyes, the natural expression of true feelings, made Cheng Weiliang, who was her partner, sometimes act, and he himself almost completely entered the play.
It can be said that in addition to the highlight of Li Saifeng's "Shancai Declaring War on Daoming Temple" the day before yesterday, Zeng Huaqian is slightly inferior to Li Saifeng in terms of line explosiveness, and Zeng Huaqian's performance in other important emotional rivalries is far superior to Li Saifeng. Therefore, Cheng Weiliang made up his mind to bring her to ATV and recommend her to Xu Xiaoming. Now Zeng Huaqian has also been recognized by Xu Xiaoming and Mei Xiaoqing.
At this point, after the final heroine was selected, the actors of all the roles in the crew of "Meteor Garden" were all determined.
"My "Meteor Garden" is full of handsome guys and beauties! The lineup is super strong!" Cheng Weiliang took the final cast list in his hand, sighed infinitely for a while, and was full of spirit!
The heroine Ye Shancai - Zeng Huaqian, the male protagonist F4 - Cheng Weiliang, Wu Dairong, Lu Songxian, Zeng Weiquan.
Goddess senior sister Fuji Tang Jing - Guan Zhilin, violent sister Dao Ming pile - Wei Qiuhua, friend Xiaoyou - Mai Cuixian, gold worshipping female duo - Yuan Qiongdan, Cai Qian'er, West Pastry shop proprietress Lixiang - Zhu Meiyi, fiancée Cheng Wenyi - Zhou Huimin.
And the female No. 2 Li Ying (Nakajo Sakurako), this role is a great test of the actor's acting skills, with a weak, delicate and cute appearance, and Shancai became friends, in fact, she likes to dance in the dance hall hotly, and secretly shoots Shancai's **** to frame the White Lotus scheming girl - Li Ying, Cheng Weiliang handed over this distinctive role to Li Saifeng, who originally auditioned for the heroine. Li Saifeng's acting skills are still good among the younger generation of actors, she just can't match Cheng Weiliang's filming, and she can't act in emotional scenes with him!
In the play, he conspired with Li Ying to kidnap Shancai and take revenge on Jiang Zhenming, a model boy from Daoming Temple, Xu Xiaoming found a newcomer Qian Xiaohao to make a cameo.
Li Saifeng and Qian Xiaohao, a pair of newcomers to actors, are really destined. Historically, the two of them starred together in the psychedelic kung fu film "Mr. Zombie" that swept the box office that year in 86, and both of them became famous in one fell swoop because of this movie!
Now that the personnel have been neatly organized, the props, costumes, venues, etc. have also been prepared, and the first phase of funds of 600,000 yuan has also been put in place, which is enough to start filming part of the scenes in advance, Cheng Weiliang and Xu Xiaoming and Mei Xiaoqing discussed that "Meteor Garden" is scheduled to officially start on September 22 ten days later.
