Chapter 20: The Goddess

There is only one last interviewer left, and it is Cheng Hao, who Zhou Yi is most optimistic about.

"What if this doesn't work?" Meng Xiyang picked up the last resume and asked casually.

"It's all her", Zhou Yi said, "Time is in a hurry, and the actors have to be set quickly." ”

"Was it so strict before, is it so sloppy now?" Meng Xiyang was puzzled, his eyes staring at the photo on his resume. There were a lot of resumes just now, but Meng Xiyang didn't look at it carefully, but now he looks carefully, and the more he looks at it, the more familiar he becomes:

"Hey Zhouyi, I know this Cheng Hao, alumnus, one or two years lower than us, has acted in TV series, and has also been a campus host, with good acting skills and popularity, the dream lover of the boys in the school, you also know."

"Really? Why am I not impressed? ”

"Pretend! Last time, you boys made a bet to guess the color of other people's underwear, and asked me to ask the girls in their dormitory, have you forgotten yourself? ”

"Huh? Anything else like this bastard? Zhou Yi was confused, the age was too old to remember it at all.

However, this seems to be something I can do, and I also "met" Meng Xiyang from the color of my underwear, and was later slapped by Meng Xiyang.

"Shh Meng Xiyang's disdain was beyond words, "Zhou Yi, I found that your skin is getting thicker and thicker, and what you have done is to die and not admit it." ”

"What you say is what", Zhou Yi smiled, "Since she has good acting skills and popularity, can she be directly condemned?" ”

"Don't be busy", Meng Xiyang blocked. She remembered something: "No, I just heard this morning that Director Cai Ming of the People's Theater is going to arrange a drama adapted from an online novel, called "The First Intimate Date", and the heroine is Cheng Hao. I also heard that the People's Theater promised her that as long as she behaved well, she would sign a formal contract with her. ”

"Is there such a thing?"

"What the students of the People's Theater said should be accurate. That classmate originally wanted me to play the heroine. I heard that I had a performance and couldn't leave, so I decided that Cheng Hao. ”

"I'll go to the People's Theater to find you, isn't this digging the foot of the wall? If you go, they will also help you solve the establishment of the People's Theater, right? ”

"That's exactly what I did."

"Why didn't you go?"

"Nonsense, the play is bigger than the sky, the third round of performance contracts have been signed, what's the matter if you leave? Besides, if I leave, you won't get angry? ”

"You're here for me?"

Meng Xiyang said: "I want to say yes, do you feel that you owe me a favor?" ”

Zhou Yi smiled again: "Don't talk nonsense, call Cheng Hao in and ask." ”

Cheng Hao came in, smiling and radiating.

Zhou Yi's eyes chased Cheng Hao like a spotlight, she was more youthful and beautiful than she remembered. Especially the big eyes of Kazlan, which seem to be filled with stars.

After Cheng Hao came in, his eyes couldn't help but fall on Zhou Yi's face, just like Lin Daiyu saw Jia Baoyu for the first time - this face is so delicate and handsome, "the bones are strange and not vulgar".

The two were "appreciating each other", Meng Xiyang kicked Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi came back to his senses.

Gaffe.

Turning his head to look at Meng Xiyang, in all fairness, Cheng Hao is on par with Meng Xiyang, but his temperament is different.

Zhou Yi pointed to his seat: "Please take a seat." ”

Cheng Hao didn't sit down, and bowed slightly: "Hello senior brother, good senior sister, in fact, we are alumni, I am a student of Qianzhou Drama Academy Class 97, my name is Cheng Hao, and I submitted my resume yesterday."

"But there is a situation that needs to be explained, this morning the director of the Qianzhou People's Theater Cai Ming sent me an invitation, hoping that I would play the heroine of a drama, and I have agreed to them. Therefore, for the role of "Charlotte's Troubles", I can only withdraw from the competition.

"Out of respect for Happy Rice, I'll come over and say it in person, please forgive me."

Look, the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless, and the people really agreed to go home, but they couldn't ask for it.

Meng Xiyang looked at Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi smiled: "I know." They also promised you that if you perform well, you may sign in to the People's Theater after graduation, right? ”

"How do you know?"

"Don't stand and say, please take a seat."

Cheng Hao sat down in surprise.

"Actually, it's not strange," Zhou Yi said, "The drama circle is so big, a little wind and grass can spread all over the city." In particular, the People's Theater is the vane of the drama industry, and its every move has attracted much attention. A little off-topic, what are your plans for the future? ”

Cheng Hao thought for a while: "I don't have too long-term plans. Play the next play first, and then take a step at a time. I think so, as long as I take responsibility for every role and work hard, there should be more and more opportunities. ”

Zhou Yi nodded and encouraged: "Down-to-earth, diligent, actors need such an attitude." So do you plan to specialize in drama, or do you want to pursue a career in film and television? ”

Cheng Hao thought for a while: "If I have the opportunity, I still hope to leave some works in the film and television industry." The drama is fascinating, but after all, it is niche and sluggish.

"But then again, your rehearsal of 'Charlotte's Troubles' is an exception, the drama industry hasn't had such a hot production for many years, maybe since you, drama has started to flourish."

"It's not that easy", Zhou Yi waved his hand and said: "No matter how the drama develops, it can't compete with film and television." Film and television should be born from the time, from the moment of birth, he brought his own shovel, and dug the grave for the drama while developing.

"Whether it is Happy Rice, or Qianzhou People's Theater, as well as any stage theater troupe, they must fully recognize this, and they may be able to survive if they follow the trend, and stick to the old dead end.

"From this point of view, 'Happy Rice' is more survivable than the People's Theater, and the boat is small and easy to turn around, and it is more adaptable. Moreover, Happy Rice Flower will not be stupid enough to only do dramas. ”

"Oh? What do you do without doing drama? Cheng Hao asked curiously.

Not only Cheng was so surprised, but even Meng Xiyang looked at Zhou Yi in surprise.

Zhou Yi smiled, he decided to say something, and guided Cheng Hao sideways, letting her know that starring in "Charlotte's Troubles" was the most correct choice, rather than playing "The First Intimate Date".

So, Zhou Yi said confidently: "Happy Rice is just the beginning of making a drama, "Charlotte's Troubles" will not be just a drama work, it will become a movie in the future."

"My plan is this, first three or four rounds of drama in Qianzhou, to see how the market reacts. Facts have proved that the response is very good, and it is difficult to find a ticket, directly crushing Zhao Shanhe's "Gujing Neighborhood" of the Qianzhou People's Theater.

"After the Spring Festival, we will temporarily leave Qianzhou and start a national tour. At present, it has signed seven cities in Shanghai, Chang'an, Nanjing, Huacheng, Shenzhen, Wuhan and Chengdu to continue to 'explore' the market. ”

In fact, the tour is floating in the sky, and there is no sign in a city, Zhou Yi is fooling Cheng Hao.

"If the response is good," Zhou Yi said, "we will go to Hong Kong, Macau, Taipei, and if possible, to Seoul in South Korea and Tokyo in RB."

"When the drama goes abroad, "Charlotte's Troubles" will set off huge heated discussions and discussions in China, and its reputation will be raised to a new height, and it will naturally attract a lot of investment.

"Then the key came, at this time we set up a film company to shoot a film version of "Charlotte's Troubles", so that "Charlotte's Troubles" went from the theater to the screen, from the niche to the masses.

"The original cast of the drama starred in the movie "Charlotte's Troubles", the actors are all ready-made, I play Xia Luo, Meng Xiyang plays Ma Dongmei, and you play Qiu Ya...... Oh, no, you have to act in Cai Ming's drama, and you can't act in my movie, it's a pity.

"I think that the drama version of "Charlotte's Troubles" has achieved unprecedented success, and the movie version of "Charlotte's Troubles" will definitely be a box office hit on the basis of the drama, using richer means of expression, more diverse lens language and editing effects, and will also be a box office hit, upgrading from a hit drama to a hit movie.

At that time, this movie would definitely be popular with many people. Even if it can't become popular, it will definitely win a lot of film and television drama shooting opportunities.

"At that time, we had more options. Film companies can continue to make movies, and drama clubs can recruit newcomers to rehearse new dramas, create new hit dramas, and then make movies, a virtuous circle...... Ouch, listen, I'm too far.

"I have talked so much, just for the sake of you calling me 'senior brother', remind you that the golden period of an actor may only be so many years, you must choose the path you want to take, take one step and see three steps.

"It is more important to reflect on whether your choice is correct and whether your future development is clear. Don't be blinded, only see a little bit of immediate benefits, and can't see the 'outlet' of the times. Don't let that little interest become an obstacle to your progress. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Yi stopped and observed Cheng Hao's expression.

Cheng Hao thought for a while, looked up and asked Zhou Yi: "Senior brother, you have something to say, can you make it clearer?" I'm too young to see through. ”

Zhou Yi smiled: "Okay, but what I said may not be right, for your reference." I think so, if you really become a member of the People's Theater, it may not be a good thing.

"The mechanism and system of the People's Theater are there, any film and television performance opportunity must go through layers of approval, others want to contact you, you must go through the theater, find the leader first, and then the leader will find you. If the leader is not right, you will lose more than you gain by taking advantage of these opportunities to pinch you.

"In addition, you have to go out to look for opportunities, and you have to go through the approval of the leader, and he can still handle you. If you shoot advertisements or films, according to the requirements of the system, the theater will also take a cut. Moreover, they have their own review criteria, and not all plays can be accepted......"

"Okay, okay, I'm done with what I'm going to say, I wish you a good future in the People's Theater in the future."

Zhou Yi got up and shook hands with Cheng Hao to see him off.

Cheng Hao was very worried when she left, and I have to say that Zhou Yi's words, whether it is the prospect of happy rice or the analysis of the People's Theater, are all in her heart.

She hesitated.

After she left, Meng Xiyang asked Zhou Yi: "What you just said about the national tour and filming, is it really fake?" ”

Zhou Yi said incomprehensibly: "It seems to be fake, but it is actually true." The reason for the lie is that everything has not yet fallen on paper; As for the truth, everything is in my plan and will soon be realized. And you've always been in my plans for the future. ”

Meng Xiyang smiled with satisfaction: "According to what you say, I fortunately didn't go to the drama of the People's Theater, otherwise I will regret it for the rest of my life?" ”

"Of course. So, do you owe me a favor? ”

Meng Xiyang smiled again: "Don't talk nonsense. Back to the old question, Cheng Hao is gone, who will play Qiuya? ”

Zhou Yi smiled disdainfully: "Don't worry, Cheng Hao is a smart person, she will be back soon......"
