Chapter 107: It's a pity

(ps: With a mobile phone code, tragedy, not a eunuch, there is a change at night, the new battery bought on Taobao is estimated to arrive tomorrow.) Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info)

In December, the weather in Yanjing became colder and colder, and as in previous years, when the time entered the end of November, Yanjing ushered in the first snow of this winter under the influence of cold Siberian air.

The difference is that this year's cold air has brought snowfall to Yanjing is particularly frequent, and it has only been a week since December, and since the first snow on November 26, there have been three snowfalls.

After a night of snowfall, the rooftop cars and street trees all seem to be dressed in silver, and at this moment, the snow-covered Yanjing has a different kind of charming charm in the early morning.

Although the temperature is still cold, this does not hinder people's enthusiasm for Saturday travel, and a studio in the western suburbs is more lively than usual.

Like "Huanzhu Gege", the middle-aged and elderly characters in "Youth Bao Qingtian" are directly invited to play powerful actors, and the young roles are screened by assistant director Gu Li and other staff through resumes, photos, videos and other materials, and then interviewed by Jiang Lin, Fang Tao, and Li Jianyi in person.

With the exposure of the 22 million investment budget, the casting of "Youth Bao Qingtian" was welcomed by young actors in the group of young actors, and for a while, the actor information flew to Tangde Film and Television like snowflakes.

There is no doubt that with an investment budget of 22 million, "Young Bao Qingtian" can form an almost all-star cast like "Lingyun Zhuangzhi Bao Qingtian", which has a similar investment scale in the original time and space, but the consequences of the high proportion of actors' salaries in the investment budget can be imagined, and the reduction of production costs will inevitably sacrifice the overall quality of the series.

In Jiang Lin's view, the ratings appeal must be necessary, and the quality must not be less, at least it cannot be worse than the original space-time version that seems to have many flaws now, otherwise what sense of accomplishment do you have.

Therefore, in order to achieve the effect of taking into account both, the arrangement of the cast is extremely important, and the combination of first-line, second-line, third-line, newcomers, and old artists is bound to be reasonable.

At Jiang Lin's insistence, in terms of middle-aged and elderly roles, the role of the Eight Sages King played by Chen Daoming in the original time and space chose Tang Xueqian, who is also a top actor in the film and television industry in the world continent, a middle-aged man with a gentle appearance and a sharp edge when acting, and the other roles are all old actors with small wrists, but very powerful, and old actors.

In terms of young roles, as the soul of the whole play, the role of Bao Zheng is obviously not suitable for new actors, the actors must not only have excellent acting skills, but also have a call for ratings, so in addition to the image conditions that meet the needs of the role, the actor's acting skills and fame are the higher the better, and therefore, the number of audition actors for Bao Zheng is far less than that of Ling Chuchu, Gongsun Ce and other roles, and the four actors who finally participated in the audition are all second-tier star actors.

In this way, with Tang Xueqian and Bao Zheng, two actors with a certain rating call, as well as the old drama bones who are responsible for providing acting output, the choice of other young characters in the play can undoubtedly put aside the consideration of commercial factors, take the needs of the role as the core selection conditions, don't care about the big wrist and small wrists, whoever is suitable for the role will be put on the role, and then on the basis of suitability, starting from factors such as budget, salary, and fame, the final choice of the actor will be decided.

But if there is no film and television creator who doesn't know, as long as a play chooses the right role, it is already half of the success, in fact, those movies and TV series that succeeded in the end are all quite good in this regard.

If everything goes well, I believe that this world's "Young Bao Qingtian" will never lose to the original version of time and space in terms of performance, Jiang Lin has such confidence, and as long as he thinks that the new "Shaolin Bao Qingtian" will be born with his participation, he is full of expectations for the casting of "Young Bao Qingtian", similar to the situation when "Huanzhu Gege" was casting, the difference is that he has had a casting experience, he is no longer worried this time, nervous to death, in addition, due to the relationship between signing actors for his company's brokerage department, Compared with the previous "Huanzhu Gege", it is inevitable that there are special expectations in my heart.

With the arrival of December 7th, in the cold wind after the snow, many young actors appeared in the studio where the casting of "Young Bao Qingtian" was casting.

Inside the studio.

"Li Haifeng still won't come to the audition?" Jiang Lin frowned slightly, originally 6 people were selected to audition for the role of Bao Zheng, but in the process of invitation, one person's agent made it clear that he had no time to come to audition, and then there was Li Haifeng, who became popular with the spy war drama "Red File", and his agent directly asked for 100,000 yuan.

Like the original time and space, in the first few years of the 21st century, the salary of actors has not risen wildly, and the overall price is relatively stable, and the average price of first-line TV drama actors in the mainland is about 10-120,000, this is still a quotation, usually the final price will be discounted by one to two percent, and the price is not necessarily high, the same is the first line, the price may vary by tens of thousands, or even double, some people watch the play, and some people must mark that price.

Outside the first line, the second-tier male actors are at most 3-50,000, the third-tier actors are at most 10,000, and the female actors are generally about one-third lower than the male actors.

It is conceivable how much Li Haifeng's agent's offer is, you must know that Tang Xueqian, who chose to take over "Young Bao Qingtian" after reading half of the script and the overall outline, finally received 80,000 yuan, and the gap between Tang Xueqian and Li Haifeng is not one or two points.

"No, his agent is too good to speak, damn it, he really regards Li Haifeng as a superstar, saying that 80,000 is already the lowest price, and now there are several dramas that invite Li Haifeng to star at a high price, and he will only choose the one with a higher price, he is crazy and only cares about money, and he doesn't look at the script, is our drama the same as other dramas? The kind of drama that will spend 80,000 yuan to invite Li Haifeng to act, and you can watch it when it is filmed in the end. Assistant director Liu Xu scolded.

"Normal, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, for us, if you don't come, you won't come, he is not the most suitable candidate at present, there is no shortage of actors for a good script, Liang Wenjiang and the four of them are not here?" Li Jianyi said indifferently.

"That's right, it's still at least 80,000, who does he think Li Haifeng is, such a price is also shouting, according to the information I got, his previous salary for filming "Red Archive" was 18,000, and now he is not satisfied with giving him 50,000, when he encounters such a vampire agent, Li Haifeng's upward momentum is hopeless." Fang Tao said unpleasantly.

Jiang Lin was also unhappy, the other party clearly thought that the script he wrote was very bad, either he didn't even bother to read the script, or he couldn't even tell the basic good from the bad, and then regardless of whether the script was good or bad, with the idea that it was important to make money, he was ready to use the bad drama to make a fortune.

If the other party just doubts his creative strength, it is okay, with his current age, it is indeed difficult to write a decent TV drama script, and it is also nothing to distinguish the quality of the script, at most the other party has no eyes, but if he directly believes that "Young Bao Qingtian" is a bad drama without even looking at it, it is undoubtedly unforgivable.

No one likes to be angry, anyway, Jiang Lin has directly put Li Haifeng on his blacklist at this moment, whether it is Li Haifeng's own decision or not, this pot can only be carried by Li Haifeng, don't you look down on me? Ok, in the future, as long as I can call the shots, you won't have to act in film and television dramas, and see who regrets it then.

The first audition role is, of course, Bao Zheng, Pan Cheng, Du Zheng, Liang Wenjiang, and Wang Xuebin walked into the studio in turn.

After some auditions.

"Who do you think is the best fit?" Seeing Wang Xuebin leave the studio, Jiang Lin asked the two beside him.

"Du Zheng", "Du Zheng", Fang Tao and Li Jianyi said successively.

"It seems that we are heroes, and I also think that Du Zheng is the most suitable." Jiang Lin smiled, obviously very satisfied with the candidate, Du Zheng, who graduated from Yan Opera 93, is 27 years old this year, has many years of experience in drama performances, and his acting skills are quite solid.

However, followed by Jiang Lin, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, like Zhou Jie, Du Zheng's appearance conditions are not outstanding, but while his acting skills are excellent, he has a strong self-characteristics, which can attract people's attention like a magnet, which is very important.

Frankly speaking, although the performance is a little contrived and a little too violent, Zhou Jie's overall quality as an actor is much higher than that of idols such as Hu Ge , Huang Xiaoming , Tong Dawei , etc., but it is a pity that the emotional intelligence is not enough and negative news is repeated, otherwise with the momentum of "Huanzhu Gege" and "Shaobao", his acting development should not lose to Sun Honglei, Huang Bo, Deng Chao, Zhang Jiayi and others who are not good in appearance conditions in any case.

has such excellent basic conditions, as long as Du Zheng's emotional intelligence is enough, Jiang Lin has the confidence to build him into a leader in the next ten or twenty years of mainland actors of the same generation, similar to the enhanced version of Deng Chao before the crossing, but unfortunately Du Zheng already has a brokerage company, and he can't sign him in a short time, as for a few years later, who knows what will happen in a few years, I hope he won't be another Zhou Jie, his reputation has been good, and when his contract expires, he can consider signing it.

The audition continued, and the next audition was for the role of Gongsun Ce, but when the fifth actor was interviewed, Jiang Lin's eyes bloomed with a bright look. (To be continued.) )
