Chapter 376: Female No. 1
In terms of the director's salary.
This 'Uniasia Vision' film and television company didn't bite too hard.
Maybe there is a genuine desire to cooperate with the Cote d'Azur company.
Retreat and retreat.
In the end, I gave a friendship price.
From 3 million to 2.6 million.
After the negotiation is completed.
Director Ni Qijun did not delay.
On the same day, I flew directly from other provinces to the CΓ΄te d'Azur to sign the contract.
"This is the script, let's take a look at it first."
Inside the conference room.
Lin Hao gave him a copy of the printed script.
At the same time, he was also looking at the director.
Not tall.
Somewhat slightly chubby.
The long hair that was specially raised was not combed.
It looks messy.
And the shirt covered with pleats is not trimmed at any edges.
It's a very casual look.
However, the eyes under the black frame look calm and abnormal.
It's a bit like a scholar who focuses on a certain field and ignores his own outward image.
How to say it.
Pretty special.
"Okay."
This way.
Ni Qijun nodded.
He lowered his head and slowly studied the script.
He was slower.
Not like Qiu Chuanjun.
Pick up the main plot line and go through it once, and you can have a rough idea in your mind.
It's that every part is being carefully picked.
I guess it took about an hour.
Only then did he raise his head and take a deep breath and said, "Mr. Lin, can you let me meet this screenwriter called 'Whale Fall'?" β
"What's wrong?" Lin Hao was swiping his mobile phone and couldn't help but be curious.
"The script is really well written."
Ni Qijun looked extremely serious, and said with a little excitement in his tone: "This should be the best suspense film I have ever seen in my career, the setting of the circular world and the timeline that seems to be in full swing are perfect, and it also maintains a strong logic, the screenwriter who wrote this script is simply a genius." β
Lin Haoren's old face turned red.
He said this for Christopher Smith first.
Good copy.
It is also a manifestation of ability not.
It's all the same.
"Ahem, the screenwriter is not in the company at the moment, let's talk about it later."
Lin Hao said perfunctorily, and then diverted the topic: "By the way, after reading the script, do you think you can use all the amateur actors on the role?" β
"Amateur actor?"
Ni Qijun was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and finally shook his head and said: "Mr. Lin, with all due respect, the role of the heroine is completely unsupported by an amateur actor, and it requires quite superb acting skills, and even a few supporting roles must have a certain foundation, and all the words of amateur actors can't make the essence of this film." β
Hear the words.
Lin Hao's heart was bitter.
Acting skills are required.
That means Mane is needed.
Although he had long guessed that it would be like this.
But this result was really hurtful when Ni Qijun said it.
"Then as far as you know, for the role of female number one, there are no competent actors in your company?" Lin Hao asked.
"Yes!"
Ni Qijun thought about it, and then said categorically: "But her fame is not too big, and it may not have much effect on the absorption of the film." β
"It's okay, fame is not an issue."
Lin Hao's eyes lit up, since amateurs can't do it, then the first choice is cost-effective, and immediately decided: "When it's time to audition, just let her come over." β
"This. Good. β
Ni Qijun looked at this Mr. Lin in amazement.
Promised.
It seems to be a bit of a pleasure.
But he didn't say anything.
Just go back and talk to the company yourself.
The stage of project initiation.
In fact, the news blockade of "Horror Cruise" is quite good.
The outside world didn't get any news.
As soon as the news of the audition for the role came out.
The media immediately turned their attention to it.
"My Sassy Girlfriend" and "Home Alone" have achieved amazing results at the box office one after another.
Now every move of the CΓ΄te d'Azur company is no longer irrelevant.
Naturally, they rushed to report and pay attention.
And some actors in the industry have also begun to submit their resumes here.
In fact, there are some big names.
Switch to usual.
They may bypass the drop-off process and have the broker speak directly with the company's CEO.
But it won't work on Lin Hao's side.
He is not averse to some good actors.
But there is a lot of resistance to their salary.
Plus there is not much contact between the two sides.
There is no personal contact.
So you can only follow the right process.
Stuck in the age and the basic requirements of the role in the play.
That's it.
More than 600 resumes have been received.
Lin Hao first asked Ni Qijun to go through it all.
Wait until the other party has almost determined the eligible actors.
He did it again.
Ultimately.
There are more than 40 actors auditioned in the company.
Three days later.
Ben Kai Building.
Liang Wanyun came to the audition hall with her agent.
During the waiting stage, the agent couldn't help but remind her: "This opportunity is not easy to come by, don't be nervous when you audition, you have to perform well, with the promotion of director Ni Qijun and the company level, how to say that you have a little more chance than others." β
"I know."
Liang Wanyun nodded.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Adjusted the next personal status.
Movies in this circle.
Women are more than a little more competitive than men in themselves.
Moreover, as an actress over thirty years old.
She hasn't taken on any drama for half a year.
Not to mention that it is still this kind of core female number one role.
At all costs.
You have to work harder.
"Eh, isn't that Wang Yang, he's here too."
The agent was suddenly surprised: "Hey, and Zhou Jingyu, it seems that there are many people interested in this film." β
"It seems that the Cote d'Azur company has been very popular lately." Liang Wanyun said with emotion.
"What's the matter with the Cote d'Azur company, the main thing is that the screenwriter 'Whale Fall' is too hard, he can write songs and scripts."
The agent immediately explained: "You said that it would be nothing if he wrote blindly, but the films he wrote were all popular, and such a person would not suffer anywhere." β
Liang Wanyun nodded in agreement.
The two chatted for a while.
The audition officially begins.
Thanks to Ni Qijun's recommendation.
Liang Wanyun ranked first.
Walk inside.
She introduced herself to Lin Hao and Ni Qijun in a proper manner.
Auditions.
It's still more stylized.
Introduce yourself.
Image review.
Performance clips.
The three themes are basically inseparable.
Lin Hao looked at the woman.
The first impression was quite satisfying.
To know.
In the original book, the heroine is not just good at acting.
Both body and appearance are more pleasing to the eye.
Very much of a plus.
Naturally, he didn't intend to deviate too much.
"Have you read all the scripts that were sent to you?" Ni Qijun asked first.
"I've been watching it for a long time." Liang Wanyun nodded.
"Okay, let's put this on a show."
Ni Qijun gestured to the staff next to him.
The latter hurriedly scattered some small pieces of paper with good writing on the ground.
"Okay."
Liang Wanyun adjusted her mood.
What she needs to perform next.
It is a scene where the heroine Bai Qianwen (Jesse) changes her mood in the dressing room.
Under the incomparably entangled heart.
She picked up a piece of paper on the ground.
It reads, 'If they come aboard, kill them all!' This sentence.
The most critical.
This is my own note.
She rewrote it.
Same!
Thereupon.
She herself was in a deep state of anxiety.
Then.
Another Bai Qianwen's voice appeared in his head.
Inside the house.
This line is played on a tape recorder.
And Liang Wanyun needs to cooperate to express emotions.
It can be said to be an inner drama from panic to rebellion.
It's a test for actors.
However, Liang Wanyun's performance is remarkable.
I can't fault it.
After that.
Ni Qijun asked again: "By the way, I remember that Miss Liang also has children, right?" β
Liang Wanyun was stunned for a moment, not knowing why he suddenly talked about this, but still replied: "Yes, four years old." β
Ni Qijun nodded and said, "Okay, I'm clear, then Miss Liang will go back and wait for the news first." β
Although it is a company.
But there is no superfluous care on the surface.
Business.
Continue to beckon the people behind to continue the audition.
Next to him.
Lin Hao's heart is like a mirror.
Ni Qijun: The last question seems inconsequential.
But in fact it was for him.
The actor's good acting skills are only one aspect.
Liang Wanyun also has a natural advantage.
That's being a parent.
There are children.
is obviously more suitable for the role of Bai Qianwen in the play.
Lin Hao thought about it.
In the end, the words 'female number one' were written on Liang Wanyun's resume.
The audition ends.
The roles were implemented one by one.
Lin Hao in the back is no longer involved.
At most, it may be to go to the exploration class or something.
This time, the filming location was chosen in Qiongzhou.
It's still quite far.
The movie has just finished work.
"The Masked Singer" also came to the news.
It's a retro letter again.
Written in it were some words of sincere gratitude to him for being able to participate in the show.
Missing a point.
However, the program team still hopes to communicate with him by phone.
This thing.
Shi Hongchao can't be the master.
I had to ask him what he meant.
Lin Hao thought about it and let him give it to the other party.
I don't plan to hide my identity anymore.
A phone number is still crooked.
Thereupon.
It didn't take three minutes.
Lin Hao received an unfamiliar phone number.
"Hello teacher 'Whale Fall', I am Zhao Jinbin, the director of the "Masked Singer" column group, and I especially welcome you to join." The other party said enthusiastically.
"Hello." Lin Hao said.
"The program is expected to be recorded in early April, and you can rush to Jiangning TV in late March."
Zhao Jinbin said: "As for the hotel, you don't have to worry about it at all, we will arrange it in advance." β
"Okay."
Lin Hao agreed.
"By the way, our program team will arrange an assistant for you later."
Zhao Jinbin continued: "If you have any needs, you can just mention them at that time. β
"I see."
Lin Hao had no objection.
"Then let's do it first, Mr. 'Whale Fall', we'll see you at the end of the month." Zhao Jinbin said with a smile.
"Wait a minute." Lin Hao said suddenly.
"You say."
Zhao Jinbin was busy listening.
"Before recording, the program team shouldn't ask me to show up to verify my identity, right?" Lin Hao asked.
It's fun to play.
He didn't want to make the game any less fun.
Even if the other party is the director of the program group.
"This. As the chief director, in principle, I know the personal information of each contestant. β
Zhao Jinbin paused and said, "However, considering your special identity, the program team will not intervene." β
"Okay."
Lin Hao said: "See you at the end of that month." β
