Chapter 267, Xu Rui, Guo Biting!
"In fact, for Xu Rui's personal information and work experience, I believe that most people who pay attention to the entertainment industry will have some understanding. And the reason why we invited you to audition for the actor in this drama is that in addition to your good appearance on the big screen, you are more in line with the aesthetics of young men and women for film and television actors. ”
Director He Jianian said that he glanced at the producer Wang Fang on the side, although the director has the right to screen the male and female protagonists, but as an investor, whether it needs to be replaced is just a matter of one sentence.
Judging from the current situation, Wang Fang is quite satisfied with Xu Rui, the actor.
Businessmen are profit-seeking, if Xu Rui only has a good appearance and has no identity and fan cohesion, then for Wang Fang's Xindu company, it is undoubtedly a silver-like wax gun head, and it will not be considered at all.
But the problem is that Xu Rui still has the halo of 40 million movie box office on his head now, and such an achievement is definitely qualified to star in the TV series invested by their company.
He Dao praised it. Actually, I was really involved in being an actor for a short time. Being able to play such a role is far more important to me than to have any other purpose. Xu Rui's words are true.
"Same as the flight attendant. There are 24 episodes in the whole drama, and according to his current salary price, one episode is only 300,000 yuan at most, so for him, this remuneration is actually not much higher than "Talk Show After Tonight", and even takes up the time of his new show "Idol is Coming" on a certain period of time.
However, according to Xu Rui's thoughts, after all, he can't just aim at the development of variety shows forever, if it's really just like this, then whether it's the iQiyi video portal, or asking Cui Zhenyuan to contact Korean artist companies, it is completely unnecessary.
And once you want to break through yourself and develop your career in an all-round way, then Xu Rui, a singer, abandoned the profession at the beginning, and now you have to do a good job as an actor. And it has to be stronger.
After all, in the future, Xingrui's iQiyi video will be mature, and it will inevitably produce some online dramas, or even online movies. And at that time, he must be the male number one, so it is good to hone his acting skills a little more.
"Then in this case, let's simply try the play, you don't have to be too nervous, just play according to a small part of the script." Director He Jianian said with a smile.
"Hmm. Good. With the experience of playing the leading role in "Nightclub", Xu Rui naturally will not have much problem coping with the audition of this kind of TV series.
Even Li Junwei in "Nightclub" and "With the Flight Attendant. The two are not the same personality at all, but the dull and wooden setting is still somewhat similar in some places.
If you have to find a slight difference between these two roles, that is, the profession and social identity are different, Lu Fei is more like an otaku in the traditional sense, and in later generations, he is a sling, he likes beautiful women, but he pretends to be a serious kind of person when facing beautiful women.
Such a personality trait is not difficult for Xu Rui to master, especially before coming to Shenzhen. He also deliberately studied the original novel, and more or less had some of his own opinions about the character of Lu Fei.
A virtual dialogue without physical objects came to an end, and Xu Rui's series of expressions made director He Jiannian recognize, and even the producer Wang Fang on the side also nodded again and again, affirming Xu Rui's acting skills just now.
The role of the actor was finalized so easily, Xu Rui, the crew, and the investment company signed a performance contract, and after the business was done, they immediately came to the hotel to have a meal together.
In the following conversations, Xu Rui gradually gained a certain understanding of the progress of this TV series. Now the entire crew, in addition to the complete production team, has not fully confirmed the issue of actors.
Among these actors who have not yet been confirmed is the role of the heroine Ran Jing.
"Director He, when do we plan to start this TV series initially?" Xu Rui frowned.
"It can't be more than two months at most, after all, the team has been formed now. Although the actors are generally cast a net and the selection is focused, the cost of the crew is also a lot, and if it can be delayed for one day, it will be delayed for one day less. Director He Jianian sighed when he said this.
"We are now in this drama with the movie version of "The Same as the Flight Attendant. "The Days of Residence" has a somewhat conflicting feeling, and the other party's movie will be released soon. That's why we have to do our best to do business.
As the saying goes, people have to die more than people, and goods are thrown away, if the movie is very good, who will watch our TV series at that time? ”
He Jianian's words, Xu Rui felt that there was a certain amount of truth.
After all, the plot of the movie is relatively compact, and in more than an hour, the main plot can be better interspersed together, compared to the deliberate way of dragging the plot and cheating money in the TV series, it can indeed attract the love of fans of the original book.
But having said that, Xu Rui still insisted on his original point of view, he really didn't think that the movie version of "The Same as the Flight Attendant. What praise can "The Day of Living" get, because the most important point is that the two actors and actresses in the film are not very likable, and neither of them is the kind of artist with strong appeal.
"By the way, since Director He has not had a candidate for the heroine for a long time, why don't I recommend someone to you?"
A thought came to mind from Xu Rui's mind, he slapped his forehead suddenly, and suddenly remembered an artist who was very compatible with the role of Ran Jing, if she joined, the decision would be much more eye-catching than the actor in the movie version.
After all, Ran Jing in the original book is a flight attendant by profession.
"Oh? Do you have a friend you know and want to recommend? He Jianian is not disgusted with Xu Rui's form of going through the back door, in fact, there are so many actresses in the entertainment industry, although he is a director, there is no way to check the files one by one, it is unrealistic and impossible.
If Xu Rui can really recommend an actor who is suitable for Ran Jing's heroine status, it will be a good thing for this drama and for him personally, and it will save him any more energy for this.
"Well, it's a very familiar friend." Xu Rui smiled and nodded. "I don't know if Director He has watched the variety show "Youth Undefeated" that I once hosted? If you have seen it, I believe you must know that there is a girl named Guo Biting. ”
"Guo Biting?" He Jianian's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was recalling the information related to the name.
"That's right. Whether it is image or temperament, Guo Biting is 100% in line with the character of Ran Jing. Of course, Guo Biting is relatively gentle in personality, and he lacks a little bit of Ran Jing's liveliness and cuteness, but liveliness does not mean that he is very aggressive, I believe you know this better than me, director.
To put it bluntly, the character of Ran Jing is still the kind of urban girl who is strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and with such a setting, I think Guo Biting is competent enough. (To be continued.) )
