Chapter 24: Power on

The crew members of "Never Expected" were all overjoyed after receiving the news of the successful audition.

It's not easy to mix up today's actors, especially junior actors, they can't get private work, and no one wants to play tricks, so they can only register information in the Actors Guild and wait for the discerning people to come and send them.

Zhang Bennan is one of them, he is a street screenwriter, and he is also a professional trick on the register, a year down, he can receive more than ten professional tricks, but the average salary is only twenty or thirty thousand yuan, now he is thirty-two years old, the whole person is in the run-in of the years, his face is rough, and he is tired, but this time he suddenly became the protagonist, which also made his blood pressure rise suddenly, almost unbelievable.

He stood in the Yinggu Group Building, a studio built by an employee office, looking at the bright lampshade, the crew who were busy building the studio around, Zhang Bennan walked in the field, still a little dazed, his role, although not the male number one, but definitely an indispensable character in the play, just thinking about it, I feel paralyzed all over the body, I will go, this is definitely a big opportunity arranged by God for himself.

Zhang Bennan was excited, and saw a young man wearing jeans and a black shirt walking into the scene, taking out a few scratch papers, and handing them to himself and his colleagues who came to star together.

"Hello, you're familiar with me, right? My name is Zhang Heng, I am currently the director of the crew of "Never Expected", the four of you, after strict selection, are already the leading actors in the crew, I know that you may not know about the miniseries, but after you read the script, you may have a concept in your heart, the miniseries is very easy to act, and you don't need advanced acting skills. ”

"These scripts, together are only about 30 scenes, and there are only more than two hours of screening time for editing, although the performance content is different, but as long as everyone grasps the personality characteristics of their respective characters and grasps this opportunity, maybe the next star will be you?"

Zhang Heng's tone was relaxed, and he handed over the actors' storyboard scripts respectively, cheering for the four people in front of him by the way, and observing the four people at the same time.

Deng Chao doesn't matter, now he has completely entered the play, and his life is full of a sledgehammer with a silly and cute expression, only when he reads the script, he will return to his normal image, become strict and serious, and be an actor with a strong sense of responsibility.

was originally a special effects artist, but now it is Kong Xiangzhi, who Zhang Heng asked for by name, and after being nodded by Zhang Heng, he gradually calmed down from panic. Now she is wearing a golden hair cover, and her image has successfully transformed from a big man to a stunning "girl" who can be a man and a woman, and he will play Wang Dazhui's sister, mother or other anti-skewer roles in the play many times, such as the White Lady and so on.

Zhang Bennan is another potential actor that Zhang Heng has seen in this audition in addition to Deng Chao, he is very satisfied, Zhang Bennan's characteristics are very distinct, while the crew is playing tricks, he is also a screenwriter, can be literate and martial, and is born with a leadership temperament, not only can play the boss, but also can wear Hanfu, play Liu Bei, and when he speaks, the sticky voice can be immediately recognized by the audience.

The last one is Liu Hao, like Deng Chao, he is a student in school, but he is a broadcasting and hosting major, fluent Mandarin, coupled with a sunny and handsome appearance, although he is not from an acting background, he is very good in all aspects of his acting skills, and he is an artist who can develop in many ways. Of course, it was not this point that Zhang Heng picked him, but that although he was handsome, his facial features were generally not recognizable. If you put on makeup, you can make a cameo appearance in any character in the play, and if you don't distinguish carefully, you may not be able to see you and me at all.

This set is the office on the middle floor of the Yinggu Group Building, and Zhang Heng specially found the other party's boss to rent it for filming, and after several discussions, coupled with the approval of Chairman Zhao Xingliang, the other party's supervisor finally agreed. After all, they are Zhao Xingliang's subsidiary, and they have developed some peripheral business after the film is formed.

Zhang Heng only rented for one day, although it was only a staff office, but it cost Zhang Heng more than 10,000 yuan of daily rental fees, Zhang Heng felt pain when he thought about it, but the decoration of Yinggu Group and so on are very suitable for Zhang Heng's ideals.

filmed a miniseries, Zhang Heng did not learn from Xiangjiang, killing pigs and worshipping gods for incense. He doesn't believe this, in his previous life, when he made movies, as long as he didn't meet the director of Xiangjiang, it was basically the same, eliminating feudal superstition and starting filming directly.

In order to save money and so on, Zhang Heng did not hold a press conference before the start of filming, there was no big-name actor in the whole crew, and the most famous was just Zhang Heng's own small Internet singer, holding a press conference? What to promote? Besides, people may not come, and the impact of Zhang Heng's violent beating of reporters is not yet a junior, and the most important thing is that Zhang Heng feels that there is no need for that.

The filming of this miniseries was not on the big screen, nor on the TV, but on the Internet.

Zhang Heng has long thought that only investing in publicity on the Internet is the most economical and accurate way to invest in advertising.

So he agreed to the video interview of Xinhai Entertainment the day after tomorrow, because the video can only be clicked on the Internet, the wool is out of the sheep, and the miniseries he filmed is to be broadcast in VIP payment mode on the Internet, mainly to cater to netizens, he understands this truth very well.

In the scene, the gaffer assisted the set, four photographers, carrying the camera at the same time, Zhang Heng sat next to the viewfinder, looking at the effect of the shot, very satisfied, the scene note is a young man, named Wang Peng, loves to laugh, a mouthful of white teeth, he sees Zhang Heng young, with a kind smile, unlike some other old-fashioned and stern directors, who have a good feeling, and asks Zhang Heng from time to time: "Director Zhang, don't we have a heroine in the play?" ”

Wang Peng took a look around and found that except for some female dragon sets, there was no actress with a storyboard script at all, and he couldn't help but wonder, such a movie is eaten raw, there are no actresses, and the cliff taste is the same as chewing wax.

Zhang Heng smiled: "Yes, and it's beautiful, but she's busy now, and it's estimated that she can come in the afternoon." ”

"In the field?" Wang Peng muttered.

Zhang Heng sighed, he contacted Bai Menglan yesterday to explain the situation, the crew is not only going to film, but also about to participate in an online video interview, Bai Menglan has finished recording the songs of "To Youth" and "Can I Hold You" in the past few days, and the rest is to shoot MV and so on. This is not in a hurry, so she readily agreed to come, but the company headquarters of Good Record is far away from Yanhai, and it will take several hours of flight time to arrive in Yanhai, Jiangnan.

After arriving at the scene, I will familiarize myself with the script, and it is estimated that the shooting footage of Bai Menglan will be in the afternoon.

Regardless of this for the time being, Zhang Heng has shot a work for the first time since his rebirth, and the excitement in his heart at this time is beyond words.

He tried his best to calm down, looking at the busy work of Wang Peng running around in the crew, watching the photographers rubbing the camera to check whether the camera was normal or not, watching the actors sitting on the side, studying the script's lines, next to them, a woman about thirty years old was busy making up for the actors, this scene was so familiar in the previous life!

But in his previous life, he had been behind the scenes, just an investor, planner and manager. Although he is a director, he has never directed a single performance, and he dreams of the opportunity to direct, but unfortunately, without a good script and a lot of experience, he knows the consequences of directing failure, which is a loss that his thriving company cannot afford.

Now that he has this opportunity, he finally started shooting, Zhang Heng trembled with excitement, his hand directed the tube, his eyes were firmly fixed on the viewfinder, gradually, Zhang Heng calmed down, looked at the actors who had a few lines, put down the script, and rested on the side, Zhang Heng yelled: "Are you ready?" ”

"Ready!"

The actors felt the power of Zhang Heng's voice, and even some surrounding personnel who were not optimistic about the script couldn't help but cheer up at this time.

Morale is very important, Zhang Heng smiled with satisfaction and snapped his fingers: "Field notes, play boards!" ”
