Chapter 020 beauties are invited
Gu Weiqi chuckled and said: "But I think you are quite suitable for the role of the princess of the dynasty in this play, I don't know what Miss Guan thinks?" ”
Xiao Sheng also echoed: "Yes, if you play this role well, it will be very beneficial to the hone of your acting skills." ”
Guan Meiren nodded hurriedly and said, "Then I'll listen to Mr. Gu and Mr. Xiao, and play this role." Although this role is only a supporting role, there are still a lot of scenes.
Gu Weiqi nodded, and suddenly said, "Your name is Guan Jiahui, right?" I think your name is so earthy, I'm afraid it's not easy for the audience to remember, why don't I give you a stage name Guan Zhilin, what do you think? ”
"Guan Zhilin? Guan Zhilin? Xiao Sheng chanted twice, and said: "This stage name is good, simple and easy to remember, it is indeed much smoother than your original name, Jiahui is not happy to thank the boss?" ”
Guan Zhilin blinked her beautiful eyes and hurriedly said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu." ”
"Don't be so polite, I'm actually very optimistic about you. You are so beautiful, as long as you are willing to work hard and ponder your acting skills, your future achievements will be limitless! ”
"Really?"
"There is no doubt about it. I'll make a few movies in a while, and then the heroine will give priority to you...... A few of you beautiful girls here. ”
The women were overjoyed and said, "Then we will thank Mr. Gu in advance." ”
"Don't be so polite, you are the company's artists, and I will definitely spare no effort to help you."
"Next." Xiao Sheng shouted.
The next one is Yu Yu'an, not to mention that this beauty's acting skills are still remarkable. However, Gu Weiqi felt that she was not cold enough. So after his audition, he didn't say yes, he didn't say no, he just asked her to wait aside and continue the audition. Shirley, who is next, is not good enough for this role at present. However, Zheng Wenya and Rong Huiwen's acting skills are not bad.
Among them, according to Gu Weiqi, among several people, Rong Huiwen's ancient costume is the most moving, so after discussing with Xiao Sheng, it was decided to let Rong Huiwen play the heroine. In fact, according to Gu Weiqi's idea, it is no longer suitable for Chen Yulian to play this role. Because the other party's ancient costume is cold enough. It's a pity that the other party is on the wireless side now.
Of course, with his financial resources, it is not impossible to dig up Chen Yulian at present. However, considering that the other party seems to be in love with Zhou Yunfa now, it is estimated that it will take a lot of effort to dig it; Second, there are already a lot of Hua Dan on Phoenix TV's side, so there's no need to continue poaching people.
Rong Huiwen heard that she was going to play the heroine, and hurriedly said: "Thank you, Mr. Gu, thank you, Mr. Xiao." ”
Gu Weiqi waved his hand and chuckled, "Don't be so polite. ”
When the other girls heard this, they were immediately disappointed, and they said hello and were about to leave.
"You wait first~" Gu Weiqi stopped a few women, turned his head to look at Xiao Sheng, and said, "Old Xiao, it is estimated that it will take a lot of time to audition like this." In order to get these TV series to start filming as soon as possible, I directly arranged the main characters. If you don't think it's suitable, let's discuss what you think. ”
"It's fine." Xiao Sheng nodded.
Gu Weiqi looked at a few girls and muttered: "Yu Pu'an and Shirley, you should be the heroines of the 'Rogue Tycoon'." Let Wan Ziliang play the actor's words. Zheng Wenya's words are good to serve as the heroine of 'Drunken Boxing King Wuji', and the male protagonist will let Zhang Guorong play. Xiao Lao, how do you think I arranged it like this? ”
Xiao Sheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's not bad." ”
"That's it, you can go out."
A few girls walked out happily, and Gu Weiqi continued: "I personally think that Jiang Dawei is more suitable for the male protagonist of 'Cold Moon Lone Star Sword'. However, considering that the other party is not from our Phoenix TV, let's let Huang Yuansheng star. As for the hero and heroine of 'Thousands of Rivers, Thousands of Mountains, Always Love', I think it is more appropriate to use Wang Mingquan and Jiexian. Can Xiao Lao help me make an appointment with them? ”
"There's nothing wrong with meeting them. But even if they agree, I don't think Boss Shao will necessarily release him now. Since the opening of our Phoenix TV, the salaries of employees in the TV industry have been greatly raised, and the employees on the wireless side have made a lot of trouble after knowing it. ”
Xiao Sheng smiled, and continued: "The boss had to reluctantly raise the salary by five percentage points. and expelled the few people who made the most trouble in private, and the snow hid the snow, which can be regarded as finally stabilizing the overall situation. If we dig up their popular flower Dan Wang Mingquan and Xiaosheng Xie Xian again, I'm afraid Boss Shao won't give up! ”
"It doesn't matter." Gu Weiqi chuckled and said, "It's good if you help me arrange to meet them, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”
"Alright then, I'll call them." Xiao Sheng took out a phone book from the drawer, rummaged for a while, and then quickly dialed the phone, and said, "Ah Xian, my phoenix Xiao Sheng, our boss wants to invite you out for tea...... What the? Not available? Oh well, excuse me. ”
Gu Weiqi frowned slightly, and then Xiao Sheng called Wang Mingquan again, but the other party replied that he was still not available.
"In that case, forget it." Gu Weiqi thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Then for the time being, let's shoot four films first, it's really not okay to wait for Brother Huang and Yang Panren to finish filming 'Huo Yuanjia', and then shoot this 'Thousands of Rivers, Thousands of Mountains are Always Love'." ”
"It's okay, anyway, it's enough to start filming four films at the same time now."
"What are the ratings of our TV station at the moment?"
"It's not good, although with the recent preliminaries of the children's talent contest and singing contest, there are also 'News Flash', 'Entertainment Focus', 'University Open Class', and 'Truth Investigation'. However, the average rating is only 13 points. ”
Xiao Sheng shook his head, and continued: "But I think that when the official start of the competition and the filming of these TV series are ready to start, the ratings should increase significantly." Patent filings for the other programs 'Millionaire', 'Everyone-Sports' and 'TV Shopping' have been filed, but the recording of the programmes is still in preparation. ”
"Well, yes, take your time."
Gu Weiqi muttered: "As for the advertising fee, according to what I wrote in the development plan before, at least 100% increase, which is the premise of cooperation." Otherwise, there is no need to talk about it. All in all, as long as you do your best to do a good job of TV shows, it doesn't matter if you can't pull ads. Anyway, financially, I will strongly support you. ”
"Don't worry, Mr. Gu, we will do our best."
"That's good." Gu Weiqi nodded, and suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have come up with the theme songs of the upcoming TV series, so he immediately picked up a pen and paper from Xiao Sheng's desk and wrote and drew on it.
A moment later, the four songs "The Great Wall Will Never Fall", "Cold Moon Lone Star Sword", "You Are Not Obedient" and "Blood Like Fire" jumped on the paper.
"The Great Wall Will Never Fall", "Cold Moon Lone Star Sword" and "You Are Not Obedient" Needless to say, they are naturally the theme songs of "Huo Yuanjia", "Cold Moon Lone Star Sword" and "Rogue Tycoon".
As for "Blood Like Fire" Gu Weiqi intends to use it in "Drunken Boxing King Wuji", this song was originally the theme song of the movie "Big Knife King V", and it is quite appropriate to use it here. You must know that a classic theme song often adds a lot of points to a play.
After Gu Weiqi finished writing, he threw down the pen, sent the manuscript paper to Xiao Sheng, and said, "Xiao Lao, this is the theme song and episode of those four TV series, how about you take a look?" ”
"Oh?" Xiao Sheng has been working in the film and television entertainment industry for many years, so he naturally understands music.
It is said that when Liu Dehua starred in "The Condor Heroes", it was still a song written by this master. Whether a song is good or not, it is natural to see if it fits the TV series. These songs written by Gu Weiqi can be said to be very good, especially "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" is a classic, which is very consistent with the theme of the play "Huo Yuanjia".
After Xiao Sheng looked at it carefully, he was taken aback at that time. A few days ago, Gu Weiqi talked about the singing contest, and said that the champion would be an album tailored by him himself, and promised to make it an instant hit, but he didn't believe it at that time. But now he is completely convinced, it has only been a long time, and Gu Weiqi has easily made several songs. The most rare thing is that they all fit the themes of these TV series.
"Good, good!" Xiao Sheng praised a few good words in a row.
Gu Weiqi chuckled and said, "Since you said it well, it seems that the songs I wrote are okay." "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" and "Blood Like Fire" I plan to sing it myself. As for 'Cold Moon Lone Star Sword' and 'You're Not Obedient', you look at it and find a female singer to sing. ”
"Okay."
"That's it, I'll go to the 'Ethereal Company' to record the song first."
As soon as he left the office, Gu Weiqi saw Guan Zhilin coming over, walked closer and said with big eyes: "Mr. Gu, I want to invite you to dinner, I wonder if you have time at night?" ”
"The beauty invites, even if I don't have time, I have to find a way to squeeze out time. Tell me the exact time and place? ”
"It's half past 19 o'clock, and I haven't decided on the location yet."
"Then go to the Peninsula Hotel, I heard that the Peninsula Hotel environment is very good."
The Peninsula Hotel is the only six-star hotel in Hong Kong, located in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, near the future Hong Kong Space Museum, facing Victoria Harbour, Tsim Sha Tsui is the most prosperous business district in Hong Kong, with many world-famous brand stores (such as Italian famous brands, Paris famous brands, etc.) and well-known hotels (such as The Peninsula Hotel, Hilton Hotel, Regent Hotel, Shangri-La Hotel, etc.), making Hong Kong a shopping paradise.
Because of this, The Peninsula Hotel is also a high-spending place that the average person cannot afford to spend. Therefore, Guan Zhilin couldn't help but be surprised when she heard that Gu Weiqi said that she was going to this hotel, and according to her current income, she couldn't afford to go to such a high-end place to consume.
But Boss Gu said it, and she had to nod.
"That's it, I still have something to do, so I'll go first, and I'll see you in the evening."
"See you in the evening!"
After leaving Phoenix TV, Gu Weiqi asked Fang Lingwei to take him to the "Tian Lai Legend International Music Company", headquartered on the 15th floor of the "Liyuan Building". At this time, the two recording studios were renovated, and the mixer, speakers, microphones, song players, televisions, recorders, etc. were all fully functional.
Under the leadership of Zhong Jinghui, Gu Weiqi saw that there are also commonly used in folk music, such as the shepherd flute, flute, sheng, bamboo bang, big/small cymbal, cymbal, big/small drum, war drum, horn, horizontal/vertical flute, row/short flute, suona, gourd silk, guzheng, yaoqin, pipa, erhu and so on.
In addition, the violin, harp, guitar, electric guitar, bass, clarinet, oboe, bassoon, major/trumpet, saxophone, piano, organ, electronic organ, timpani, drum kit, triangle, tambourine, castanets, etc., which are commonly used in Western musical instruments, are also available.
These devices alone cost more than 10 million, and the 10 million Hong Kong dollars that Gu Weiqi gave him had long been used up, and later gave him another 20 million. However, these hardware devices are indispensable for a serious music company, and although a lot of money is spent now, if the record is popular, an album will earn everything back.
