Chapter 583: Pulling, Re-Auditioning

Brilliant Entertainment Headquarters.

After the audition, Liu Shiying returned to the company and held a meeting with several senior executives to discuss the cooperation.

"How's the audition? What is Fang Xing's evaluation? Wang Xingfa, vice president and artist director, took the lead in asking.

It should be okay, but Fang Xing's expression was flat, and he didn't show that he was very satisfied, but he didn't say he was dissatisfied. Actually, I haven't auditioned for a long time, and it feels pretty fresh. Liu Shiying laughed as she spoke.

Liu Shiying, as a super first-line actress who is popular, has no shortage of filming after becoming popular.

When it came to her coffee position, it was the film and television company that begged her to shoot with the script.

Because she made a popular one, there were almost no street dramas, even if the ratings were not high, it could be regarded as a passing level.

The only criterion in the film and television industry is the broadcast performance, that is, the ratings and the number of broadcasts.

Whoever can carry the drama has the final say.

Liu Shiying's drama can be popular, then her acting method is right.

Even if the director thinks there is a problem, he may not dare to point it out, because people are popular, as long as the audience likes it, how to act is right.

Since about three or four years ago, Liu Shiying is willing to take on a drama, and the producers are so happy that they hold her, do they still need to audition?

In a sense, audition is the process by which an actor gains the approval of the director by showing his acting ability.

When an actor plays a role that has become so popular that the whole industry follows suit, there is no need to audition.

This time the situation is a little bit special.

Ark Culture asks for auditions.

Brilliant Entertainment wants Liu Shiying to audition and show her acting ability, as long as the director feels that she has acted very well, then she will have bargaining chips to negotiate the contract later.

However, after Liu Shiying's audition, she didn't see a very satisfied expression on Fang Xing's face, but she didn't have a dissatisfied expression either.

Wang Xingfa laughed and said: "This is normal, even if Fang Xing is very satisfied, he will not show it, this is a negotiation strategy." The remuneration offered by Ark Culture is basically given at the floor price. ”

It is true that Ark Culture has never offered sky-high salaries to actors, and there are even many actors who are willing to take the initiative to reduce their salaries in order to get roles.

Even when Song Li acted in "Dark Glory", the salary she received was also given according to the lowest market salary.

The salary is low, so you can naturally spend the money elsewhere.

Costumes, locations, post-production, everything costs money, and if you want to hire a good team, you have to spend money on the blade.

Right now.

Ark Culture and Brilliant Entertainment are in the pulling stage.

Brilliant Entertainment wants to use Liu Shiying's card to get more benefits, and even get some privileges when they are in the crew.

It is normal for big-name stars to get privileges in the crew.

For example, other actors follow the crew throughout the whole process, eat and live in the crew, and they can't go out to pick up business.

Big-name stars don't have to follow the crew throughout the whole process, even if they are in the crew, they can take leave to go out to participate in business activities, and even ask the crew to shoot the scenes together and finish the scenes in the shortest time.

What's more, he refused to shoot exterior scenes, all studio shots, and cut out pictures in the later stage.

Because of the speed of studio shooting, it is much faster than shooting exterior scenes.

In short, the time saved, it's all money.

With the popularity of Liu Shiying just now, the appearance fee has reached the million level.

This money, how can Brilliant Entertainment not make it.

……

Ark culture is just the opposite, especially in Fang Xing's dramas, the leading actors follow the group throughout the whole process, and they can't play the show, except for the fixed rest days every month, they can't ask for leave casually the rest of the time.

These terms are all written in the contract, and the latter is no exception, Song Li's film contract is signed like this.

However, Song Li and Liu Shiying are a little different.

Song Li rarely accepts business activities, and even if she does, most of them are to return favors.

Because the company is her own, she only makes a drama in two or three years, and there is no possibility of rolling a drama.

Liu Shiying is different, she wants to make money, and Brilliant Entertainment also wants to make money.

Moreover, if she could, she didn't want to go to Ning Province to eat sand, she could make money comfortably, who would want to drink the northwest wind and eat sand?

Of course, exterior and studio shooting can actually be parallel, part of the studio shooting, and some of the exterior shooting.

In fact, most of the film and television projects are on location and studio shooting.

If the contract is negotiated in detail enough, it can even stipulate how many scenes to shoot on location and how many scenes to shoot in the studio.

Calculate how many days the shooting time can be.

……

Wang Xingfa looked at the brokerage team and asked, "What about you?" What do you think of the drama Ark Culture? What conditions can be accepted? ”

Liu Shiying's agent thought about it and said: "In terms of the quality of Fang Xing's past TV series, this drama should not be too bad when it is filmed, but I read the script, the plot of the heroine of this drama is not easy to say, and the audience may not like to watch it."

"If the audience feels uncomfortable watching it, there may be a situation where they are applauded or not."

In the film and television industry, it is common to be applauded or not.

The audience watches TV series, in fact, mainly for entertainment, and if they are not happy watching it, they will choose not to watch it.

Some dramas are obviously filmed very well, and the actors' performances are good, but they are too aggrieved to watch, and the final score is very high, but the ratings are miserable.

The script of Ark Culture this time has this tendency.

Another executive agent also chimed in: "I also have this worry, in this script, the male protagonist and the female protagonist are not together in the end, and even the emotional scenes are very few, the female protagonist is aggrieved, and the male protagonist is also aggrieved." This kind of drama is very likely to hit the street in ratings. However, if the film is done well, it may be possible to rush for the award. ”

Wang Xingfa waved his hand: "Shiying has no shortage of awards now, and she should shoot more popular dramas." ”

Now that Liu Shiying has just won the Gladiolus Vision, at the current age, it is enough to have a Queen's Trophy, and there is no need to rush to impact other awards.

Moreover, the difficulty of winning the Flying Eagle Award and the Golden Junmei Award is higher than that of the Gladiolus Award, because the first two awards pay more attention to performance and are more academic, and ignore the popularity of the TV series itself.

In other words, Liu Shiying can win the Gladiolus Award with "Feng Linchao", but neither the Flying Eagle Award nor the Jin Junmei Award can be nominated.

Song Li has only begun to hit the Flying Eagle Award in the past few years.

Compared with Song Li, Liu Shiying is still relatively old, and there are at least ten years left, and the best strategy at this time is to shoot more popular dramas.

Wait for a few years to precipitate, and then hit the award.

The agent continued: "Moreover, Fang Xing's new drama is a male lead drama, and the roles are mainly on the male lead, and even the male protagonist's father has more scenes than the female lead."

"This drama has been filmed, and it is not that the heroine is brilliant, so whether to take on this role or not needs to be seriously considered.

"Of course, if Ark Culture can agree to our request, this drama can still be accepted, and if we can get a nomination, it won't be a loss."

Wang Xingfa turned to ask: "By the way, have you read the poverty alleviation script of the complicated entertainment?" That "Spring River Plumbing". ”

Liu Shiying nodded and replied, "I saw it." ”

"How does it feel?"

"From the perspective of the script alone, the heroine of "Spring River Plumbing" has more roles, but I don't know what the effect will be when filmed. It depends on the director's level. Liu Shiying can't tell which of the two scripts is better, but the heroine of "Spring River Plumbing" has a lot more roles relatively speaking.

Wang Xingfa said with a smile: "You can rest assured, this "Spring River Plumbing" is used for entertainment to praise Zhu Yiting, and Zhu Yiting became an instant hit with "The Lonely Suspect".

"Fanfan Entertainment has tasted the sweetness this time, and is talking about a big director taking over "Spring River Plumbing", and it has been confirmed that it is an S+ investment."

S+ investment means that the investment in this drama will reach 300 million.

And the investment in the new drama of Ark Culture is only S-level.

Although the height of investment cannot be used as a criterion for judging the quality of TV dramas, in the case that the level of directors, actors, and crews is not much different, it is natural that the greater the investment, the higher the quality of the filming.

Now Zhu Yiting is the most profitable artist in Fanfan Entertainment, and in the fresh meat of traffic, Zhu Yiting is indeed relatively good at acting.

At this time, of course, the entertainment is throwing money to support Zhu Yiting.

Wang Xingfa continued: "I just talked to Mr. Hong of Fanfan Entertainment, and they are going to use "Spring River Plumbing" to create a positive screen image of Zhu Yiting, and improve the national popularity, and then enter the big screen. ”

The top fresh meat has entered the big screen, and there have been successful cases before, that is, Jia Haochen of Shengqi Entertainment.

In the past few years, Jia Haochen has relied on the title of "the youngest Mr. 5 billion" to make Shengqi Entertainment earn enough, and various big names have been endorsing, which can be said to have harvested all the international big brands.

Fanfan Entertainment is also ready to praise Zhu Yiting according to the big screen route.

Of course, if Fan Circle replicates Jia Haochen's route, there is no way out.

Fanfan Entertainment has made some adjustments, preparing to let Zhu Yiting enter the big screen with another image, before that, it is to use "Spring River Plumbing" to improve the national popularity.

Wang Xingfa continued: "Now we have two cards in our hands, and it is okay to cooperate with Ark Culture, if we can't talk about it, we can also take "Spring River Plumbing".

"Now Fanfan Entertainment wants to find a place to take Zhu Yiting in the background, and there are attempts to contact us, as well as Deng Huiling.

"So, if you are optimistic about "Spring River Plumbing", this project can.

"Moreover, listening to the attitude of entertainment, they are expected to agree to the conditions we propose."

In business negotiations, as long as the contract is not signed, you can change the partner.

Moreover, even if you don't change it, finding a second partner can also be used as a bargaining chip for negotiations.

……

The other side.

Ark Cultural Headquarters.

It is no secret in the industry that Brilliant Entertainment and Fanfan Entertainment talk about film and television cooperation.

Qiao Yinghong heard the news from an acquaintance.

In fact, Brilliant Entertainment does not intend to hide it, and is even happy to take the initiative to spread the news.

Because after the news spreads, it can make the Ark culture nervous, and maybe the conditions will be relaxed.

Qiao Yinghong came to Fang Xing's office and said, "Boss, Brilliant Entertainment, I am talking about the cooperation of "Spring River Plumbing" with Fanfan Entertainment, and I just heard the news from an acquaintance. ”

Fang Xing's face didn't change much, and he returned: "This is normal, business negotiations, no matter how you negotiate without signing a contract." ”

Qiao Yinghong then asked, "What does the boss think now?" Do you want Liu Shiying? With the current attitude of Brilliant Entertainment, if we are willing to relax the conditions, there is a high probability that we can still talk about it. ”

Fang Xing thought for a moment and asked, "To what extent?" ”

Regarding this issue, Qiao Yinghong has already asked someone from Brilliant Entertainment, and there is already a roughly number: "Listening to the meaning of Brilliant Entertainment, I want to increase studio filming, they said that the heroine does not have enough scenes, and I hope to add a little drama."

"There is also an increase in the number of studio shoots, and I want to concentrate on shooting, I want to shoot within a month and a half, and I don't want to follow the whole group.

"Basically, this is a hard condition, and the requirements for other investment quotas and remuneration are not very strict."

Fang Xing frowned after hearing this, and said: "No, the heroine must follow the group throughout the whole process, let the crew continue to send audition invitations, and see if there are other suitable actresses."

"The coffee position is not important, as long as the acting skills are in place, the age is around thirty years old, and it is okay to be older, and the heroine needs to play the mother in the back, so it is better to be older."

Qiao Yinghong nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”

The choice of the heroine of the new drama of Ark Culture has not been decided.

It has been rumored in the industry for a long time that the heroine is Liu Shiying, but there has been no official announcement.

However, Ark Culture has never said that it will not audition for the heroine.

It's just that there are rumors in the industry that Liu Shiying wants to play the heroine.

Other actresses didn't dare to grab the role with this popular newcomer, so there were not many actresses who took the initiative to contact Ark Culture for auditions.

This time, Ark Culture took the initiative to send audition invitations to major brokerage companies and actor studios.

Although it is not said on the surface, it basically means that Ark culture and brilliant entertainment have not been discussed.

Of course, sending an audition invitation may also be a negotiation strategy of Ark Culture, in order to force Brilliant Entertainment to compromise.

There are many netizens on the Internet who have begun to recommend various actresses.

[Lin Yingxue isn't very good, do you still need to choose? ] 】

[Hot rolling is also okay, not long ago at the award ceremony again "left and right", so quickly forgot about people? ] 】

[Either find Song Li. I want to see Fang Xing and Song Li pairing. 】

[Deng Huiling is okay too. 】

[What you recommend, either after the view, or after the view, this is not something that you can get if you want to ask. 】

[Do you want to consider it, straighten Yan Lan? ] Aren't we the shopkeeper worthy? 】

There are even netizens @ these actresses' Weibo.

The next day.

Lin Yingxue really called Fang Xing and took the initiative to ask, "Director Fang, really don't you think about me?" Let you perform as you like, ensure that you follow the group throughout the whole process, and you are not afraid of eating sand. ”

Fang Xing said with a smile: "You can play the first few episodes, but can you play the child's mother?" ”

When Lin Yingxue heard this question, she was stunned: "Uh......"

Her acting skills are actually okay, but after all, she is still young, and she has no problem playing a young woman, but if she wants to play a mother, she has no confidence in this.

In the afternoon.

Fang Xing received another WeChat message, and glanced at the person who sent the WeChat called Sister Dan.

In the entertainment industry, there are many people called Sister Dan.

Fang Xing didn't remember which Dan sister it was.

Fortunately, the other party took the initiative to report to his family in WeChat: "Hello Director Fang, I am Re Juanyi's agent, about the audition of the heroine of your new drama, is it possible to give our family a chance?" ”

The opportunity to audition is naturally available.

Fang Xing replied directly: "Yes, just contact Mr. Qiao to set the audition time." ”

Sister Dan: "Okay, thank you Director Fang for the opportunity, I will definitely let Hot Rolling Yi prepare well." ”
