Chapter 612: Heroine Zhang Qinglime
The day before the launch of "Ancient Acacia".
Ark Culture held an internal meeting to confirm the process of the event.
I hadn't faced the media for a while, so Fang Xing went to the company's headquarters a day early and participated in this meeting.
The leading actors of "Ancient Acacia" were all present, and no one was absent.
Especially when I learned that Fang Xing would come to participate in this event, the actors who originally had jobs all turned down their jobs to hold the meeting.
The leading actors of "Ancient Acacia" are either newcomers or eighteenth-tier young actors.
For them, being able to meet a great director is an opportunity that cannot be missed.
Although Fang Xing has been resting for more than two years, for a big director, it is not slow to make a film in two or three years.
Therefore, a two-year break is a normal thing for the industry of directing.
Besides, Fang Xing didn't do nothing during the rest period.
At least two scripts of "Darkling 2" and "Ancient Lovesickness" were taken out.
It's just that in the past two years, Fang Xing's main job is to play with his little princess, as for work, he doesn't force it, and he does a little bit in his free time.
The heroine of "Ancient Acacia" is named Zhang Qinglime, who was born in an oriental opera class, graduated for six or seven years, and has always insisted on being an actor.
However, I didn't get many opportunities, and I played a small supporting role in four or five plays.
The competition in the actor industry is very fierce.
In domestic film schools and drama schools, graduates emerge one by one every year, but very few can really get ahead.
Born in a professional class, usually the acting skills are not too bad.
However, whether you can get a chance or not, many times, has little to do with acting.
Especially for low-level actors, they may only have one or two lines in small roles, and no matter how good their acting skills are, they can't show it.
Now domestic entertainment is already a game of capital.
Only actors with capital can get a chance to get ahead.
There are many actors like Zhang Qinglime, and if they can't become popular, they can only play small supporting roles all the time.
The time of an actress is very precious, Zhang Qingling has graduated for six years, and she has been running the crew for six years.
has filmed a lot, but they are all supporting roles, and I can't see a chance to be popular.
As soon as an actress reaches the age of thirty, she enters a very awkward stage.
is as popular as Liu Shiying, and she also has to rely on winning awards to maintain her status as a popular actress.
Like Zhang Qinglime, who has never been red, the road of an actor will become more and more difficult.
Zhang Qingling is 27 years old this year, and she still has three years to go.
Three years is not a long time, but it is not a short time.
In the past six years, she has played five roles.
If she doesn't get a good opportunity, in the next three years, if she can only play three small supporting roles, then her career as an actor will basically end halfway.
has not been a popular actress, but after the age of thirty, she basically has no chance with the female number one.
Fortunately, she auditioned for "Ancient Lovesickness" successfully.
However, this drama is only a B-level drama, and it is difficult to say what the broadcast results will be.
In fact.
Zhang Qingling has been an actor for so long and has run so many crews.
Every year, B-level investment dramas are broadcast at the end and no one cares about them, which abounds.
Therefore, she didn't have much hope for this drama in her heart.
The only thing that can make her feel excited is that there is a name in the main creative team of this show.
When she first auditioned for "Ancient Lovesickness", she also saw Fang Xing's name.
She is very serious about acting, as long as she takes on the role, no matter what the crew environment is like, no matter what the script is, she will try her best to play it well.
The crew of Ark Culture is very mature, so she is still very happy in the process of filming "Ancient Acacia".
It's just that she was in the crew, and from beginning to end, she didn't see Fang Xing, and she was a little disappointed.
However, today's meeting should be able to be seen.
……
In the afternoon.
Fang Xing arrived at the company's headquarters a little earlier to prepare for the meeting.
By the time I arrived, there were already quite a few people in the conference room.
As soon as Fang Xing entered the door, the actors, directors and other members of the main creative team of the "Ancient Lovesickness" crew all shook hands and greeted each other.
Zhang Qinglime shook hands and bowed: "Hello Director Fang, I'm Zhang Qinglime." ”
Fang Xing looked at her with a smile and said, "I recognize you, our heroine." ”
Zhang Qingling was a little happy, nodded and replied, "Yes, I played Lu Kite." ”
Although Fang Xing did not participate in the shooting, he still took the time to watch the footage and help Wang Yutao check it.
So I recognized Zhang Qinglime at a glance, who was the heroine of "Ancient Lovesickness".
However, due to the different makeup, the temperament is still very different.
After reading the materials of "Ancient Acacia", Fang Xing was still very satisfied with the heroine's performance.
In fact.
In the whole "Ancient Acacia", only her acting skills are good among young actors, and most of the other actors are newcomers and do not have high requirements, as long as they don't lag behind.
After all, it is a B-level investment drama, and most of the budget has to be spent on costumes and sets, and I can't afford to hire famous actors.
"I watched your performance, it's very good, keep up the good work." Fang Xing praised.
"Thank you, Director Fang, for the compliment." Zhang Qingling hurriedly bowed and thanked him.
Although Fang Xing has taken a break for more than two years, for the actor industry, Fang Xing's name is too tempting.
Even before the break, Fang Xing's "Mountains and Seas" was filmed, and he also came out with a queen.
Two years ago, Hot Rolling won several awards and was nominated for more with "Mountains and Seas".
The most important of these is the Best Actress Award at the Flying Eagle Awards.
This award has always been Song Li's obsession.
Song Li has already won the second Golden Jun eyebrows, but she still did not win the Best Actress trophy of the Flying Eagle Award.
Hot rolling is a second-tier actress, cooperated with Fang Xing once, and immediately won the Flying Eagle Award Trophy.
With Fang Xing's strength to shoot a popular film, and win awards for each one, there is no actor who doesn't want to hug his thighs.
Therefore, Zhang Qinglime was very excited to get Fang Xing's exaggeration.
……
Today's meeting is relatively simple, that is, to simply plan the process of tomorrow's launch conference.
The company's marketing department has formulated the process, and the meeting is to review the process to see if everyone has any opinions.
If you don't have any opinions, you can finalize the process and follow it the next day.
Due to Fang Xing's presence today, Fang Xing did not raise any objections to the activity process, and the other crew members and actors naturally followed the arrangement.
After the meeting is over.
Fang Xing went to see the post-production of "Darkling 2".
"Darkling 2" was completed a few months ago and is now in the late stages.
This sequel is very important to Zhang Yigao.
If the second part of the series is not broadcast well, then there is a high probability that there will be no third part.
Therefore, Zhang Yigao is very close to post-production.
Today's work is the dubbing of actors, and Zhang Yigao has been in the recording studio since the morning, picking out the actors' dubbing word by word.
When Fang Xing walked into the recording studio.
Guo Sanjin is dubbing.
Since "The Darkling" became popular, Guo Sanjin's resources are very good, and he has filmed three dramas in the past two years, and the roles are either male or second.
For him, who is not handsome, he can have such resources because of the popularity brought by "The Darkling".
Therefore, in "Darkling 2", he also tried his best to do his best.
As soon as Zhang Yigao saw Fang Xing coming in, he quickly took off his headphones and greeted, "Boss, why are you here?" ”
Fang Xing replied casually: "There is an event tomorrow, how about dubbing?" ”
Zhang Yigao replied: "It's very smooth, there are a few actors whose original voices are not good, so I directly found a voice actor." ”
In the film and television industry, voice actors are already a very mature branch of the industry.
Many directors don't like to use actors who often appear in variety shows, and if one of the actors is familiar with the original voice of the actors, it is easy for the audience to make the audience play.
However, even many first-line actors, if they are only compared to dubbing, they will be beaten by first-line voice actors.
The top voice actors, the voices they come out of, the words are clear, the lines are profound, and they can also show the character's character, which is ridiculously strong.
In fact.
In the film and television industry, there are several actors who are popular, and they have always used voice actors, and even dedicated voice actors.
So much so that the audience didn't know that it was dubbed by voice actors.
Fang Xing also invited voice actors, of course, not to dub his own characters, but to dub other actors.
Relatively speaking, Fang Xing's dramas invite voice actors.
After all, Fang Xing himself is a vocal learner, and his control of the voice is very accurate, so Fang Xing never needs a voice actor for the role he plays.
As for the other actors, due to the high audition requirements, the actors they work with are basically good at acting.
Line skills are part of acting skills, so most of the actors they work with don't need voice actors.
Unless you feel that the timbre does not match the character when dubbing, you will consider using a voice actor.
……
Zhang Yigao saw that Fang woke up, of course, he had to make the best use of it, so he handed a headset to Fang Xing and said, "Let's listen together." ”
Fang Xing took the headphones and put them to his ear.
Zhang Yigao gestured to Guo Sanjin inside the glass wall.
Guo Sanjin nodded, and then rearranged the paragraph just now.
After matching, Fang Xing made an OK gesture, indicating that there was no problem.
In fact.
Guo Sanjin's dubbing generally doesn't need to be worried.
Because before he acted in a TV series, he acted in dramas for several years, and his grades were not bad.
An actor who can act in a drama has no bad line skills.
Because the drama has to be performed on the stage, the lines read out must be heard by all the audience in the theater, and the words must be articulated clearly and express the emotions of the characters.
can perform well in drama performances, and his line skills feel that he is the first echelon.
"Darkling 2" has already filmed the second part, and with the experience of the first part, the actors are already familiar with the state of the characters, so whether it is filming or dubbing, it is very smooth.
"Hold on tight, get it right. Mr. Gong has already urged me twice, saying that the Misty Theater has not yet selected a good drama for the next season, and he wants to make "Darkling 2" top. Fang Xing said.
Zhang Yigao showed a helpless expression and said: "Pea Video asks me about my progress every day, and it's already a quick step." ”
"That's good, on the premise of ensuring speed, the quality can't be reduced." Fang Xing added.
"That's for sure, it's better to be slow than to ensure quality first." Zhang Yigao has high requirements for this.
There was a pause.
Zhang Yigao turned to ask, "How is Yu Tao over there?" I heard that the publicity effect of "Ancient Acacia" is not ideal. ”
The so-called less than ideal is relative.
If compared with B-level investment dramas made by other little-known film and television companies, the publicity popularity of "Ancient Lovesickness" is okay.
However, compared with other dramas of Ark Culture, the publicity popularity of "Ancient Acacia" is indeed very average.
After all, the investment in this drama is small, the director is a newcomer, and none of the actors are known to the audience.
This kind of B-level drama, with early publicity, is difficult to have popularity.
Wang Yutao also had no choice, so he called Fang Xing.
Zhang Yigao and Wang Yutao used to be Fang Xing's assistant directors, and the two have worked together for so many years, and their relationship is also very good.
In fact.
Before Wang Yutao called Fang Xing, he asked Zhang Yigao to help forward the promotion Weibo many times, wanting to rub off on the popularity of "Darkling 2", but the effect was relatively average.
After all, the types of the two dramas are different, except that the director is a friend, there is no connection at all.
Netizens are also watching the excitement, as for "Ancient Acacia", they are all holding a wait-and-see attitude.
……
The next day.
The launch conference of "Ancient Acacia" officially began.
At the press conference, entertainment reporters crowded the venue.
It doesn't look like the launch conference of a B-level drama, but more like the press conference of S-level big investment.
The entertainment reporters who were present at the scene were naturally not interviewed by the main creative team of "Ancient Lovesickness", but Fang Xing, and Fang Xing was the only one.
Fang Xing has faded out of the public eye for a long time, and he is married and has children.
It can be said that the body is full of topics.
Even now, there are no photos of Fang Xing's daughter on the Internet.
Because Ark Culture has spoken, it is not allowed to post shallow photos without permission.
In addition, Fang Xing has always lived in Baitang Town, so the public knows almost nothing about Qianqian.
Today is the first time Fang Xing has participated in a public event since he faded out of the public eye.
Just wake up and take a few photos to be able to write entertainment gossip for days.
This kind of hot news, major entertainment media will naturally not miss it.
So, the launch began.
The reporter caught Fang Xing and asked: "Fang Xing, you have faded out of the public eye for so long, why did you attend today's event this time?" ”
Fang Xing: "Of course, it's to promote "Ancient Lovesickness". ”
Reporter: "This drama is just a B-level small investment, and the S-level investment produced by Ark Culture before has not seen you participate, why do you look at a B-level small investment differently?" ”
Fang Xing: "Because the popularity of "Ancient Acacia" is too low, Yu Tao is in a hurry, so he is so anxious that he calls me and says that he must come over to help with publicity. ”
Ha ha......
There was a burst of laughter.
Reporter: "Is Director Wang and you on good terms?" ”
Fang Xing: "Maybe you haven't noticed, Yu Tao has always been my assistant director before. I've taken a break for two years, and he doesn't have any good opportunities, so he's been shooting MVs and commercials.
"However, after working together for so many years, I know his talent too well, so I took out the script of "Ancient Lovesickness" and filmed it for him.
"In short, this "Ancient Lovesickness" will definitely give the audience a big surprise."
Reporter: "What surprise?" ”
Fang Xing: "It may not be good to spoil in advance. However, when "Ancient Lovesickness" reaches the finale, a special feature of this drama will be revealed.
"Moreover, I am very sure that this drama is very suitable for the second brush, everyone will wait and see."
When this answer came out, even the reporters present were very curious.
There are few promotional strategies for TV dramas that will suggest the audience to "brush it twice".
It's already good to let the audience watch it once, and you still want to ask the audience to "brush it twice"?
This has to be a divine drama.
But when this sentence came out of Fang Xing's mouth, it was extraordinarily weighty.
After all, Fang Xing's last drama "Mountains and Seas", after two years, the score of Bean Sprouts has risen to 9.4 points, and many viewers have brushed it for the second or even the third time.
The short video of the heroine Sister Shui Hua has been popular on the short video platform for a long time, and it can still be brushed now. (End of chapter)
