Chapter 21: Casting begins

"Yo, isn't this our chairman?"

Zhou Chunwang walked in without knocking on the door, most of them looked over, but Wang Ludan said unceremoniously. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In addition to Su Zhiguo, Wang Ludan, Wang Xing, Lin Guoyuan and others, the managers of the acting department, production department, and marketing department are all there. Even Yu Zhanhao was sitting on the side, but he didn't go to the conference table, he just sat and watched, he didn't understand anything, so Su Zhiguo asked him to be Lin Guoyuan's assistant, let him take a belt first, study more, and see what position was suitable for him later.

In normal times, of course this kind of thing would be said by Yu Zhanhao, and he would have stepped forward to pat him on the shoulder or something, but now that he is in the company, he has just arrived, of course he didn't do these stupid things, just sat and watched very honestly.

Zhou Chunwang just glanced at him and smiled, then walked over and sat down next to Su Zhiguo.

"Where's that?" Zhou Chunwang said.

"Without you, the chairman, a lot of things can't go on." It's still Wang Ludan who is talking. But it's true, although they have been getting half of the script for a long time, many things, such as casting, budget, etc., require him to be involved. Now they are only discussing which advertisers to work with, where to take points, and which TV stations to contact them.

"I heard that the casting has begun?" Zhou Chunwang said.

In the early stage of the preparation of the TV series, the director and several main actors must be determined first, and the selection of actors depends on the production scale of the show. With the "experience" of "Struggle" in front, the funding for this drama is probably about 13 million. This scale is not small, so you can consider choosing some celebrities with big names. After all, big stars have many benefits, one is that they can increase the ratings, the second is that the acting skills are more guaranteed, and the third is that many TV stations will like it, of course, because the ratings are guaranteed. And if the TV station likes it, then it will be easier to sell and sell at a better price.

So generally speaking, the choice of a man and a woman is mainly done by the producer, and the director of the TV series is not very involved in this matter. Because they want to ensure that the money is not easy to lose after investing, but it is easy to earn back more money back, so they often don't worry about letting the director choose. Unless you are already a very powerful director, such as Zhao Baogang and Zhang Jizhong, the producer and investor will be more assured, and all the actors in this situation can be decided by the director. But in most cases, the main role is decided by the producer, and who is the producer of "Who Calls the Shots in My Youth"? Star Pictures. Who has the final say in Star Pictures? Of course, it's Zhou Chunwang.

That's why Wang Ludan said, you didn't come, how can this matter continue? So they used this trick to "force" him, the irresponsible chairman, to come back.

And now the director of "Who Calls the Shots in My Youth" has been determined, and Wang Xingxing will be in charge. The main actor is also set, that is, Wang Ludan. But Wang Ludan is actually not an absolute female first, this time her role positioning is similar to that in "Struggle", which is equivalent to the status of a second female player, but it will also attract fans very much.

In the original world, the male protagonist of "Who Calls the Shots in My Youth" is Lu Yi, who wants to have a face, has acting skills, and is also famous, Zhou Chunwang actually hopes that he can participate. But Lu Yi should be very busy recently, and it is estimated that his plans are scheduled for next year. Soon he will star in the TV series "Eight Heroes" with Dong Xuan, Li Xiaolu, Li Binbin and others, and after "Eight Heroes", he still has two movies to be released and promoted, so many TV series and movies have to invite some big stars to star, and they generally have to be months or even half a year in advance. However, this drama obviously can't be postponed to half a year later, so I can only give up Lu Yi.

Su Zhiguo They don't know if they have considered Lu Yi, but even if they do, they should know that he has no schedule, so there is no name of Lu Yi in the cast list given to Zhou Chunwang at this time.

"Da Da," someone knocked on the door of the conference room, and then pushed the door in, it was the front desk just now, she came to bring hot water to Zhou Chunwang. But after putting it down, Zhou Chunwang didn't take it, he had already opened the cast.

Zhou Chunwang first opened the cast list of the male protagonist, and the first thing that caught his eye was his teacher Huang Lei of Beiying. He couldn't help but glance at Su Zhiguo, Su Zhiguo knew what he meant, so he said: "You think about it yourself, we just chose some actors who are more in line with this role, and in the end we still have to decide for you." ”

Of course, Mr. Huang Lei's fame and acting skills are okay, and his image and the requirements of the role are quite compatible, so they can be included in the alternatives. And he is also familiar with Mr. Huang Lei's information, so he didn't look at other things carefully, and directly opened the information of the second actor.

Bao Jianfeng, in 2002, served as the male number one in the campus youth idol drama "Eighteen-year-old Sky", and his image and acting skills are also good, so he can be considered.

Zhou Chunwang opened the third, Chen Kun, his senior brother of Beiying, also starred in Zhao Baogang's TV series in 2003, there is no doubt about his acting skills, and the future development will also be complete with the first two, but will the overall temperament be too inconsistent with Wang Ludan at this time?

Zhou Chunwang closed his eyes and imagined the picture of the TV series in his heart, but he still felt a little disobedient. Chen Kun is a very good actor, yes, he is also very eager to have the opportunity to cooperate with him, but this TV series is obviously not suitable, his temperament is more literary and artistic, and the protagonist is a real estate general manager and a businessman, Chen Kun is really not suitable, so he can only give up.

When he opened the fourth one, he was a little surprised, it turned out to be Feng Shaofeng. It's not that he's more famous or anything now, in fact, it's just the opposite, although he has starred in a lot of TV series now, and he has also served as the main actor, but now he shouldn't be so famous, how could Su Zhiguo choose him?

"Actually, I didn't notice him at first." Zhou Chunwang asked this question, but it was Wang Xing who answered him, "At the beginning, we were interested in Lu Yi, but Lu Yi has no schedule this year, and I just saw that this person has cooperated with Lu Yi in a TV series, and I think his image and acting skills are not bad, and they are quite consistent with the role, so you can also refer to it." ”

The TV series that Feng Shaofeng and Lu Yi collaborated on is called "Talented Men and Women", which is a fashion drama broadcast in 2003. Feng Shaofeng's future development is okay, but he is famous for acting in costume dramas, should he be famous in youth dramas now?

"Let's get in touch with him first, and find a time to meet." After thinking about it, I still think he is good, so he is temporarily listed as the first candidate for the male number one.

The back one is gone, so I started to look at the cast list of the female number one. And the female number one he just watched the first one and decided to list her as the first candidate, because the actress's name is Ma Yili, the heroine of "Struggle" in the original world.
