Chapter 215 List of Candidates
Yang Qianpan was busy watching the audition of the actors of "Journey to the West", because the filming of this drama carried out a large-scale audition of actors, and many film studios, "Shangxi" and "Kyoto Academy of Arts" sent a lot of candidate lists, but because "Donglai Company" is an investor and has the right to decide on actors, the list of candidates came to her.
But she was busy, and the work assistant told her that someone was looking for her, and she wondered who was looking for her. It wasn't until someone invited the person who came to her in that she found out that it was Gu Weiqi, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Archie, why are you here?" ”
Gu Weiqi said with a smile: "Isn't this missing you?" I'm here to see you. ”
The woman said coquettishly: "Why don't you call me before you come, I'll pick you up." ”
"Isn't that trying to surprise you? What are you up to? ”
"Many units have sent a list of candidates for 'Journey to the West', and I'm selecting actors. But there are so many actors on the list, I'm having a headache watching it. ”
"Oh, don't worry, I'll help you."
"That's right, come to my office."
Gu Weiqi glanced at the busy office hall, where people came and went, and followed the woman into the office.
However, after arriving at the office, Gu Weiqi backhanded the door bolt, first had a hot kiss with Yang Yanpan, and then picked up the thick actor information sheet and looked at it. Yang Xuanpan saw it slowly, but he browsed it faster. For the 82 version of "Journey to the West", he was more impressed by several leading actors, including Liu Xiaolingtong who was born in the "Monkey King Family" in Zhejiang, Chi Chongrui, the first "Tang Seng" actor born in a Peking Opera family, Ma Dehua, the actor of "Zhu Bajie", and Yan Huaili, the actor of "Sha Seng", as for the others, there are many beautiful actresses in it.
Now Liu Xiaolingtong has been confirmed to play "Monkey King", but the remaining actors have not yet been determined. Especially the audition workload is very large, once the news of the filming of this drama was released, in addition to the list of candidates sent by relevant state-owned units, even many individuals also sent their resumes, hoping to be selected.
The reason why Gu Weiqi watched it quickly was mainly because he already knew in advance who the actors were. However, after watching it for a long time, he didn't see a familiar actor, but fortunately, he was able to endure it, and finally flipped through it for a while, and a familiar actor's name jumped into his eyes - Qiu Peining, who applied for the role of "Chang'e", which made his eyes light up, and he was still very familiar with this actor, because the "Chang'e" starring the other party is the most praised candidate among the many "Journey to the West" versions.
Without saying a word, Gu Weiqi wrote her name in the corner of the cast "Chang'e" on the spot, as the boss of Donglai Company, this writing down is equivalent to making a direct decision. And after writing it down, he also told Yang Yanpan to find a way to sign this actor to the "China Entertainment International Superstar Entertainment Agency", and the latter nodded and stayed at heart when he saw that he attached so much importance to it.
But seeing such a familiar actor in the morning, he couldn't help but be slightly disappointed. Fortunately, there are still many unfinished lists of candidates.
At noon, Yang Yanpan held a banquet at the main store of "Jade Shan Fang International Restaurant" in Kyoto, and introduced Yang Jie, the director of "Journey to the West", Dai Yinglu, Zou Yiqing, screenwriters and several heads of Kyoto TV Production Company to Gu Weiqi at the banquet. What surprised him was that he also met Hu Weili, a famous music artist, but he knew that this big bull had a high musical attainment, and he was not far behind Gu Jiahui and Huang Zhan, the "two brilliant saints" of Xiangjiang, and produced many popular movie interludes and cup scene music.
So after the banquet ended, he instructed Yang Yanpan to sign this big bull into the "China Entertainment International Superstar Entertainment Agency", such a talent must not be let go. Especially as far as he knows, the other party also came to Xiangjiang to develop in the original time and space, and gave many tunes he made on weekdays to "Wireless" for nothing, and it would be an idiot not to pull him into his camp at this time.
In the following days, Gu Weiqi has been helping Yang Yan look forward to the list of candidates for "Journey to the West", and after half a month of browsing, he finally went down by one-third of his thick resume. And in this third, Gu Weiqi selected some beautiful actresses, such as some of which he made on the spot to let him play the role in "Journey to the West", and some even if they were not suitable, he also wrote them down, and asked Yang Weipan to find a way to sign people into the "China Entertainment International Superstar Entertainment Agency".
After all, if "Oriental Hollywood International Film Company" wants to develop into a world-class top film company, the number of actors and behind-the-scenes personnel required will be a very large number. Now that there are so many ready-made actors, it is natural that they cannot be missed. Besides, it would be best to sign in the "China Entertainment International Superstar Entertainment Agency". Even if you don't want to sign, there's nothing to lose.
However, "Journey to the West" can't start filming for a while, and just casting and finding a suitable place to shoot is a big project. Therefore, half a month later, Gu Weiqi went to the filming set of "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" again, and returned to Xiangjiang with Chu Qingsheng. After all, Xiangjiang still has a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. When passing by Shencheng, I took a look at the "Mythical International Film and Television Base" and the "Tang Dynasty International Industrial Group" under construction, and saw that on the barren land, there were high-rise buildings and large factories, some of which were being completed and were being completed, and some were still under construction. Everything is going in the direction he planned.
Just as he was leaving the capital, the "Kitchen Knife Gang" launched a long-planned shocking case of kidnapping the leader. However, the Public Crime Department, which had already laid a wide net, had already made preparations to let its conspiracy fail. Moreover, this incident also angered a certain big leader, and as soon as the order was given, a "strict", "severe" and "fast" fire attack was launched.
At this time, Gu Weiqi returned to Xiangjiang in a low-key manner, and did not notify anyone to come and pick him up, and when the boat stepped on the Xiangjiang River, he immediately took a taxi to his hotel to settle Chu Qingsheng first, and then went to Mei Yanfang.
At that time, it was already evening, and Anita Mui had already gone home from work to coax a child with her sister Mei Aifang, and Mui's mother was cooking dinner. However, when he saw Gu Weiqi coming back, he scolded him very much, he left for several months, and he didn't come back to accompany his wife and children during the Spring Festival, no wonder Mei's mother was so angry. However, Mui Yanfang couldn't bear to see his embarrassed and embarrassed appearance, and hurriedly persuaded his mother to relieve him.
Mei's mother's anger slowly disappeared, and Gu Weiqi apologized to Anita Mui repeatedly, saying that she didn't come back for the New Year, but it was really because something big happened over there - in order not to worry them, she didn't tell her about being assassinated over there. Anita Mui only thinks that his career is in the development period now, and she doesn't blame him, she just says that she misses him very much.
In order to compensate for the pain of the woman's lovesickness, Gu Weiqi spent a week in Mei and Anita for a week. During this period, the two children who are already a few months old are teased from time to time, but they are also happy. When asked about the ancient throat and liver disease, Mui Yanfang told him that he had been cured by the old man with home remedies, and now he bought an apartment near the "Giant Daily" and brought his family here. I'm calming down to write a novel for the newspaper.
Hearing this, Gu Weiqi was also relieved, Gu Throat's condition could improve, and it could be regarded as a matter of his concern.
After staying at Anita Mui's house for a week, he returned to Jiulongtang, and before that, he also arranged a place for Chu Qingsheng to live and arrange for her to attend classes in the Phoenix Artist Training Class. When sending the girl over, he also saw the future "King of Comedy" Zhou Xingxing, "Neurotic Emperor" Wu Zhenyu, Zeng Huaqian, the "Wireless Five Beauty" in the original time and space, and Lan Jieying, the "beautiful Wutai Mountain" and other "acquaintances", which gave him a big surprise.
But when he got home, he had to be complained about by Chen Yulian and Zhao Yuzhi, the two beauties, which made him smile bitterly, and quickly admitted his mistake with a correct attitude. At night, she tried her best to please the two women, so that the two women were almost distracted, and Li's mother, who lived downstairs, listened to the "good show" all night, but she stayed awake all night, and her eyes were red at the breakfast table the next day.
When the ignorant Li Jiaxin and Li Jiaming were still eating breakfast, they asked Chen Yulian and Zhao Yuzhi if they were sick last night and screamed so badly. made the two girls blushing with shame, Li's mother hurriedly scolded the two beautiful girls Lori, and told them to go to work after breakfast, and don't ask about adult affairs and children. made the two Loli feel extremely aggrieved, and the heart was just concerned about the two sisters-in-law, why did my mother have such a big reaction?
Gu Weiqi secretly felt funny, so he spoke out to relieve them and asked the tiger boy to send them to school quickly.
After eating, Gu Weiqi asked Silly Leopard to take him to the company, found Lin Zhenying and Chen Xunqi, and asked about the company's films filmed after the Spring Festival.
Lin Zhenying reported to him that because the Spring Festival had just passed, two movies had been planned for the upcoming films, one was "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" and the other was "Mr. Zombie's Ageless Legend". In these two movies, Gu Weiqi told Lin Zhenying the general storyline on the phone during his recuperation in the mainland, and now the screenwriting department has written the storyboard script.
"Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" is mainly about the reincarnation of the happy ghost Zhu Chuncai as a human being, named Kang Sengui, because of the accumulation of virtue in his previous life, talent and superpowers, teaching in a girls' middle school, cultivating talents in love. In his class, several naughty girls who love to play tricks, Dai Zhuoyi, Jian Jingmei, Yao Qiong and Baozhen, set up a "despicable club" that takes pleasure in making people whole, and Kang Sengui is their favorite object of jokes.
Kang Sengui fell in love with a female teacher from the boys' school next door, and was about to launch an offensive, but found that the teacher was being pursued by a physical education teacher who was stronger than himself in all aspects. Dai Zhuoyi and others regretted it and began to find ways to make up for their mistakes. After Kang Sengui left the school, the girls had no intention of studying and asked the school to resume their jobs. The girls knew that Kang was in love with the old teacher, so they conspired with the boys and matched the two, which led to a series of ridiculous stories.
In the original time and space, "Xin Yicheng" tasted the sweetness of the "Happy Ghost" series, and successively planned and filmed a number of Happy Ghost series. "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" also got a box office of more than 16 million when it was released in 1985, ranking 11th in the annual box office list. In the play, Huang Baiming, one of the "Big Three" of Xinyicheng, plays the leading role, and the other heroines are Yuan Jieying, Luo Meiwei, Chen Jialing and Fu Mingxian.
As for "Mr. Zombie: The Legend of Immortality" is planned by Lin Zhenying, this film is completely a product of the "butterfly effect", which will be after the bite of the "Wencai" in "Mr. Zombie" was injured, and lived from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the 80s, immortal and possessed superpowers, but it attracted the attention of a scientific research department, in order to uncover the mystery of his immortality, he sent masters and even strangers to arrest him many times, and a series of thrilling stories happened.
This can't help but make Gu Weiqi secretly sigh that Lin Zhenying is really a rare talent. Especially after the story has been processed and recreated by the screenwriters of Huang Bingyao and other screenwriters, it has a strong watchability and story interest, and it is conceivable that after the filming is made, it will definitely be able to make a difference at the box office. However, the selection of actors and directors is still up for debate.
