At the end of the 80s, although television began to rise, the funds, equipment, and personnel used by the film and television industry were still firmly in the hands of the eight major film studios.

CCTV Dream of Red Mansions has a total investment of 6.8 million yuan, and the Journey to the West crew invested 3 million in the early stage, but they almost died halfway because of the lack of funds, and because of money, the two crews suffered a lot.

However, the movie version of Dream of Red Mansions, with a budget of more than 20 million yuan in the early stage, can be said to be wealthy, so that at this time, many red experts also participated in the preparation of the crew of the Beijing Film version of Dream of Red Mansions when the filming of the CCTV version of Dream of Red Mansions started.

Tang Qin and Lin Zhiyun finished trying out the play, and the video was sent to several old gentlemen, some of them were not in good health, some were hospitalized, and the time was tight, and the rest of them were in good health, and Beiying was invited to the conference room.

Lin Zhiyun's performance, everyone didn't put forward any opinions for the time being, but after watching Tang Qin's performance, everyone's interest was gone, no, the old gentlemen were very dissatisfied.

"How does he follow other people's performances, who are the two of them who learns whom? This attitude is not serious or serious, and I don't think it will work for this point. Do we still need to see such a performance? Mr. Wang Chaowen's face was gloomy, "Plagiarism is above board, Dream of Red Mansions is art, and art does not tolerate desecration......"

"To put it bluntly, this is disrespect to the ancients for Mr. Cao Xueqin, and after watching his performance, I have nothing to say." Another old gentleman, Zhou Weichang, also had a serious face, and their attitude was approved by other gentlemen.

Oh, neither Zhang Shaoting nor Xie Tieli expected that the old gentlemen would come to a conclusion so quickly.

"Speaking of disrespect for Mr. Cao Xueqin, Baoyu's reduction to a beggar is disrespect to Mr. Xueqin." Just when Zhang Shaoting thought it was going to end, Wang Chaowen said to the old man, "Okay, let's stop here today, send me back." ”

"Then Baoyu's scientific examination is in the middle of the examination, and the amnesty of Ning Rong's second mansion is a respect for Mr. Xueqin?" Mr. Zhou Weichang had already stood up, "Shaoting, I'm leaving, I don't want this hundred yuan, I don't have a car, I'll take the bus back by myself." ”

Don't want any money?

Zhang Shaoting was in a hurry, he knew that these old gentlemen had their own views on the Dream of Red Mansions, so in the past, the videos were sent to them one by one to help with the review, but now the matter is urgent, so he put them together in a bunch, but he didn't expect that they were all people of a handful of years, and if they didn't agree with each other, they would leave.

The two gentlemen also led the others, and the literati spoke very subtlely and tactfully, but the tone and demeanor were very clear and direct, which filled the conference room with a strong smell of gunpowder.

The car didn't come, seeing that the two gentlemen were talking more and more intensely, the crutches were about to puncture the floor, and if they went down, Xie Tieli was about to notify the factory doctor in the factory to rush over, okay, the gentlemen added up to hundreds of years old, he was really afraid that they would have any accidents.

"Then, this actor really can't act?"

Zhang Shaoting could only sigh bitterly in his heart, Tang Seng, you really have no chance with Jia Baoyu.

In fact, he appreciates and values Tang Qin very much, or he would not take the initiative to give Tang Qin a chance after Lin Zhiyun tried the play, and when Tang Qin imitated Lin Zhiyun, he was so angry.

This year, just after the New Year, he ran from BJ to Kotoshima.

He is the deputy director of a large studio, and he also says a word in the entertainment industry that others have to consider, so to pick up a young man to his factory, except for the dream of Red Mansions, except for appreciation, there is no other reason!

"You can't act, you have to use a girl to act." Zhou Weichang immediately said.

"He's older, twenty-four." Mr. Wang Chaowen immediately said.

Okay, the two of them are now united in the front, and they both aim at Tang Qin.

"He also acted in Journey to the West, and the audience will play." Another gentleman did not have a good impression of Tang Qin, it was he who caused the controversy of several gentlemen, although the literati did not move, but they were just as powerful as they spoke.

"Do you still see the makeup photos?" Xie Tieli also felt very disappointed, the car didn't come, these old gentlemen were all tense, and he wanted to ease the atmosphere.

Whether to watch it or not, several gentlemen have different opinions, Xie Tieli simply asked the staff to put the photos up.

The photos of Lin Zhiyun and Tang Qin were distributed to several old gentlemen, oh, Mr. Qigong, who had no words just now, smiled, "Jia Baoyu in my heart, just four words, radiant and beautiful, I think this is good." ”

Tang Qin in the photo is handsome and smart, "It's rare that there is still a little aristocratic and bookish atmosphere...... Jia Baoyu is a descendant of the prince, and he is a family heirloom of poetry and books, so these two gases are indispensable. Mr. Zhou sighed, but still expressed his opinion.

"This, if you don't talk about his attitude, then the appearance is close to the Jia Baoyu in our minds, but it looks like it, it's still a little worse." Mr. Wang also sighed.

Xie Tieli immediately understood that what the old gentleman meant was that the charm of the actor was not enough, but this was already his highest evaluation.

Well, if Tang Qin's charm is not enough, is it in the eyes of the old gentlemen, Lin Zhiyun can directly play Jia Huan!

"Anything else?" Mr. Cao Yu didn't participate in their argument either, he looked at Xie Tieli, he still knew Tang Qin a little bit, he could stand on the stage of human arts, and the young man would not have that attitude towards performance.

Xie Tieli looked at the photo in his hand, "We still have a video, that is, during the audition, our actor who played Lin Daiyu interrupted Tang Qin's performance......"

"Then we'll see." Qi Gong was very interested in this young man, he didn't care who he imitated, he only cared if this person was Jia Baoyu in his heart.

In the video, Tao Huimin did not appear in the camera, but Tang Qin stared at Tao Huimin's eyes fixedly, which made Mr. Zhou excited.

"Jia Baoyu is radiant, handsome and bright, but what other trait does he have, I think he is stupid."

The TV series version of Ouyang Fenqiang's baby face is tender enough, although he also performs a kind of "idiot", but occasionally he still reveals a little "stupid".

The difficulty of Jia Baoyu's role is that he is indeed very dull in the eyes of others, but he is actually a kind of "idiot" in his bones, which is a subtle difference and is very difficult to grasp. ”

What's going on?

Seeing that everyone's opinions were unified on Tang Qin, Deputy Director Zhang Shaoting smiled, it seems that his efforts have not been in vain, and his vision has not been in vain.

"Tang Qin is twenty-four years old this year." Zhang Shaoting smiled and said what the old gentlemen had just said.

"The most important thing is to have the right image, and this person is hard to find." Mr. Wang Chaowen changed his mind.

The movie version of Dream of Red Mansions is larger than the TV series version of Dream of Red Mansions, the actors are all bigger, and the movie was planned to be filmed for three years at the beginning, and he was also worried that the men would grow too fast.

"Then you have to find a girl to play it." Zhang Shaoting looked at Mr. Zhou Weichang with a smile again.

Mr. Zhou thought about it for a while, "It's like Qin Zhong in the TV series version of Dream of Red Mansions, who also found an actress to play it, and finally deleted all the scenes directly, and Jia Baoyu had to be played by a gay man." ”

"Tang Qin also played Tang Seng......" Zhang Shaoting looked at the other gentleman with a smile, in fact, this was Xie Tieli's last worry, he was worried that the audience would play.

"It's not a problem, Tang Seng doesn't have hair, Jia Baoyu's hair," the gentleman said immediately, "The audience can't recognize it." ”

"So, you want him to play Jia Baoyu?"

"Jia Baoyu, it has to be him!" A few gentlemen said the word.

"Hey, I said that you Beiying Studio are not teasing us," Mr. Wang Chaowen finally reacted, these reasons were the reasons why they opposed Tang Qin just now, and now they have overthrown themselves one by one.

Zhang Shaoting smiled and smiled comfortably.

This Jia Baoyu has finally been found, Dream of Red Mansions can start filming, and preparations began almost at the same time, and the TV series version has been broadcast,......

But he saw that Tang Qin seemed unwilling to appear in the movie version of Dream of Red Mansions.

This one can't play what he wants to play, and all the old gentlemen who don't want to play let him play, which is another problem!

……

In late spring, the weather is getting warmer.

In March this year, CCTV also moved from the broadcasting compound to the color TV center, where the conditions are good, the food is better, Tang Qin made a scrambled egg with tomatoes, and Qiu Peining put a sweet and sour pork ribs on his table, and then sat down opposite him.

"You don't look like Jia Baoyu." Seeing him nibbling on ribs, Qiu Peining smiled brightly.

"I don't want to play Jia Baoyu!"

What era is it now, the era of television, my father's theater often has no one at night, where is the person, all at home watching TV.

After the mid-80s, the number of households with television sets gradually increased, and TV dramas began to occupy the market, after all, compared to movies, the way to stay at home and spend money is too much, which leads to the inevitable decline of movies.

But the arrogant filmmakers refused to admit defeat, and Beiying's filming of "Dream of Red Mansions" was a counterattack against TV culture.

It is said that after watching the 87 version of the TV series, the filmmaker once said contemptuously, "It's just a comic book"! Liu Xiaoqing, one of the leading actors, is even more open-mouthed - "What kind of director is Wang Fulin?" What kind of director is Xie Tieli! ”

And yet they all underestimate the impact of TV culture!

For film and television workers, the golden age of movies has passed, and Tang Qin is not like the cannon fodder of the times!

Also, the CCTV version of Dream of Red Mansions itself is also a sincere TV series boutique, although it is flawed in artistic performance, but it is enough to freeze the audience's imagination of "Dream of Red Mansions", and latecomers, no matter how high the artistic level, must also accept the audience's habits and tastes.

"I'm an actor in the center, our station has released a version of Dream of Red Mansions by itself, and I'll go to Beiying to help others perform another version, you say, can the old lady spare me?"

That's right, Red Mansion and Journey to the West were actually filmed by Ruan Ruolin, and Director Ruan would not slap himself in the face, he would slap CCTV in the face!

"Xiao Tang, Ruan Tai called you." The two were chatting, and Zhao Zhongxiang walked over, "The old lady is in the office, and she hasn't eaten." ”

Oh!

Qiu Peining was worried, "Tang Qin, did the old lady know about your audition in Beiying?" ”
