539 Interviews
"Mr. Fang, the actors on your list have been contacted. Jiang Hong knocked on the door of the office.
Fang nodded and waited for the following.
"Seven actors have agreed, and the rest are still considering it, while Mr. Wu Hui and Mr. Chen Guang have declined. ”
Taking the form handed by Jiang Hong, Fang Jing first looked at the actors who had agreed to film.
are all second- and third-tier veteran drama bones, with them, at least the skeleton of this TV series can be supported.
The actors to be considered next are all relatively high-valued. Even if it has retreated to the second and third lines, it has even fallen to the popularity rating. But they used to be the seniors who had reached the front line, so they naturally thought about it more.
For example, the second and third lines, the old drama bones who have never been on the first line. Their requirements for character scripts have always been low, this is because they, in previous works, rarely played the leading role, but played a "gold medal supporting role" positioning.
So after they got the invitation of Earth Entertainment, they immediately agreed to star in this TV series.
Because in the current TV series, they don't even have many opportunities to play "gold medal supporting roles". After Fang Jing's price was in place, they had no reason to refuse.
But the old actors who used to be on the front line must have high requirements for the script. It's not a good script, they won't act. What's more, now that they have almost withdrawn from the entertainment industry, they don't care about the growth of popularity at all, and they will be very cautious when they choose to star in TV series.
And they used to be professional protagonists, and now a new king is looking for them to shoot works. The protagonist may really think about it, but the likelihood of being willing to play a supporting role is very low.
Because for the first-line veteran actors, they are now playing supporting roles. It's completely lowering the style, and praising newcomers on their own popularity.
Now I will be willing to think about it, basically in the face of the State Administration of Entertainment. After all, this TV series is a project invested by the State Administration of Entertainment.
Fang Jing wanted to impress them, there were only three ways. First, enough money is given, second, the script is good enough, and third, to the protagonist.
Of the three methods, Fang Jing is absolutely willing to give money now, which is not a problem. As for the script, not to mention, I believe that after seeing the script, some old drama bones will change their minds. But don't think about the protagonist, and their roles, whether in terms of scenes or character plots, are no worse than the protagonists in other TV series.
If these front-line veterans are still unwilling in the end, Fang Jing also has options that are not bad at image and acting skills. It's just that the actors will be worse than the first-line veterans in terms of influence.
What really gave him a headache was Wu Hui, as well as Wu Hui and Chen Guang, the two king-level old drama bones who directly refused.
You must know that in the entire list, Fang Jing chose these two old drama bones who had reached the level of a king. Unexpectedly, the two old drama bones refused directly without thinking about it.
But these two are irreplaceable actors.
In Fang Jing's heart, Wu Hui is the best actor of "Li Dakang", and his influence temperament can completely restore the original actors on the earth. Even the ferocity in his eyes is more in line with the real "Li Dakang", and in terms of influence, it is many times higher than the actors in the original work.
Such an actor, when Fang Jing saw it for the first time, he began to look forward to it in his heart that he would be able to surpass the original.
And Chen Guang is the actor of "Qi Tongwei" that Fang Jing likes. This is one of the most controversial roles in the work, Fang Jing weighed it for a long time among many actors, and then chose Chen Guang the most.
Whether it is image or acting skills, in Fang Jing's opinion, only Chen Guang can control this role.
Chen Guang would refuse, but Fang Jing expected it. Because Chen Guang is still a star under Shanhai Group, he has not quit the entertainment industry. And the reason why he became the "Elder Heavenly King" was because he was kicked down by Fang Jing a few months ago.
Facing Fang Jing, he was definitely an enemy, and it was impossible for him to agree to his invitation. He even wondered in his heart if this would be Fang Jing digging a pit for him to jump.
"Help me contact Wu Hui and Chen Guang, the two seniors, make an appointment to meet and have a good talk. ”
Fang Jing had long known that it was not so easy to invite these two out of the mountain.
And as long as these two are done, I believe that with the influence of these two, it will be easy to convince the first-line veteran actors who are being considered. And they play the most important role, those first-line veteran actors, even if they play supporting roles, they can only be convinced.
Jiang Hong answered, then exited the office and helped Fang Jing make an appointment.
With Jiang Hong's current status, he controls Earth Entertainment, the film and television department of this second-rate entertainment company, and he is a second-tier director. In the entire circle of China Entertainment, he is also a talkative character. No matter where you go, others have to give some face.
Therefore, no matter who the other party is, Jiang Hong is fully competent. But if you don't talk about it, and you still can't talk about it with the king-level big-name figures, you need Fang Jing to come forward in person. Although these two heavenly kings are no longer heavenly kings.
Jiang Hong himself is very clear about this point.
In the face of Fang Jing's invitation to interview, neither Wu Hui nor Chen Guang could refuse. Because as the superstar of Fang Jing Tianwang, the invitation issued is only out of respect for the identity of the Heavenly King, and no one will refuse.
Even if they are not interested in cooperation, they can only decline in the interview at most. If you directly refuse the invitation, you will definitely be accused of being impolite by the industry, and will be pronouned with "arrogance", "arrogance", "lack of quality" and so on.
Soon, the two elder Heavenly Kings arranged the nearest time and notified Jiang Hong. Jiang Hong then sent the negotiated time and place to Fang Jing.
Fang Jing glanced at it, but he didn't expect that Chen Guang's time was still in front of Wu Hui.
......
Two days later, Fang Jing took Jiang Hong, assistants and other entourages to the building of Shanhai Entertainment Group.
"Hello Mr. Fang. The concierge, who had been waiting outside the gate for a long time, brought Fang Jing and the others all the way into the conference room.
On the way, many staff members of Shanhai Group looked sideways.
"Fang Jing, why is Fang Tianwang here?"
"I won't have any cooperation with Sister Li Ya in China. ”
"Hehehe, he just kicked Chen Guang off the position of the king, and now that he comes to our group, there must be a drama to watch. ”
Pushing open the door of the conference room, Chen Guang, Li Ya, Cheng Ling and others were already sitting on the opposite side.
Fang Jing and his entourage also sat in a row, and he smiled, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
"Yes, we are the hosts. Chen Guang's first sentence smacked of provocation.
