Chapter 210 Brother Kun
【If you don’t vote for your monthly ticket, it will really expire】
After the main actors were confirmed, Xu Kun and Tian Youliang discussed and set a schedule to start reading the script on May 26 and officially start shooting on June 10.
The reason why we have to wait half a month before starting to read the script is mainly because the character script has not been completely released, and the main supporting roles have not been fully completed yet.
At the same time, the crew members also need to be confirmed during this period.
Tian Youliang originally thought that Chen Xuebin would firmly resist his proposal to let people from Happy Twist join the group, but unexpectedly Chen Xuebin was the easiest to talk to.
Even Xu Kun felt a little weird, so he secretly asked Chen Xuebin why.
Chen Xuebin chuckled and said, "Mr. Jia wants me to put my name on LeTV and recruit a shooting team for LeTV - your idea of reading the letter is really amazing. Once Ms. Yang's letter comes out, it will definitely create a sensation." !”
It turned out to be preparation for "Seeing Words as Faces".
Xu Kun criticized half-heartedly: "Brother Chen, you just can't be enlightened. Is that for the sake of sensation? It's to let more people know the touching and legendary deeds of these founding fathers!"
"Yes, yes, I will definitely say that when others ask me in the future."
Chen Xuebin started with good things and big ideas.
"Seriously."
Xu Kun brought the topic back and said, "You have such a wide network of contacts in the industry, why are you targeting people like Happy Twist?"
"You don't understand this."
Chen Xuebin said proudly: "Those old youtiaos can still work together temporarily. If you really point them to do long-term work for you, they might cause you some troubles! And most of these old youtiaos have no ambitions anymore. New gadgets , too lazy to learn new things.
On the other hand, most of the young people in Happy Twist were selected by Tian Youliang. They must have good basic skills and can persist in a small theater for more than a year. They must have ideas for this industry and can accept new things at a young age.
Furthermore, isn’t your letter reading a variety show? The lighting props and on-site recording of the sound are closer to a stage play than a TV series, so I plan to recruit a few young people from Kaixinmahua and find two old people to bring along. "
As expected, he was the chief internal affairs manager who had been in the industry for many years, and his calculations were all rubbish on the faces of Tian Youliang and Zhang Chen.
"this……"
Xu Kun hesitated and said: "Brother Chen, don't make this a big deal. If you fall out before the filming is over, we will screw up."
"Don't worry."
Chen Xuebin patted Xu Kun on the shoulder with confidence and said: "Stage plays are not performed every day, and LeTV doesn't have that many programs to film. I just let them work part-time at LeTV and give them an extra subsidy—— This can be regarded as helping Happy Twist support others, Zhang Chen is grateful to me before it’s too late.”
Xu Kun felt relieved now, but as LeTV didn't have that many programs to shoot, he came up with another idea.
…………
In the blink of an eye, May 25th came.
The crew booked two floors and a conference room in a three-star hotel in advance. At 7:30 that morning, Xu Kun, Chen Xuebin, and Tian Youliang were waiting at the stairs.
When someone from the crew comes up, the introducer will come up to say hello, and then introduce them to the other two people - if they are important people or seniors, the introducer will personally lead the person to the conference room.
However, Xu Kun just watched Tian Youliang send off and brought two Chinese opera teachers who were over fifty years old into the conference room. Before he could turn around, he heard a clear voice coming from behind: "Brother Kun~"
When Xu Kun turned around, it turned out that the second female lead, Jiang Xin, and the third female lead, Qin Lan, had arrived.
When he was on the set of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", he was not very familiar with Jiang Xin at first. It was not until he taught Zhou Yumin a lesson that the relationship became closer.
However, this girl has a straight temper and is obviously not someone to be trifled with - there is a difference between a straight temper and a straight temper. For example, Li Xiaolu also has a straight temper, but she is easier to provoke.
Seeing Xu Kun turn around, Qin Lan also greeted him with a smile: "Brother Kun."
As he said that, his eyes turned to Chen Xuebin who was aside, with a look of curiosity in his eyes - although Chen Xuebin was also a casting judge, he did not disclose his identity.
"This is Chen Xuebin, Brother Chen. Like me, he is the producer of this show." Xu Kun introduced Chen Xuebin and then smiled at Qin Lan: "You are one year older than me. This Kun I can't bear the word brother, so from now on we can just call each other by our names."
"Okay, Xu Kun~" Jiang Xin responded quickly, then covered her mouth and ran inside with a giggle.
Qin Lan solemnly bowed slightly and said: "Hello, Producer Chen, thank you for taking care of me during the audition."
Then he quickly followed Jiang Xin.
"The conference room is the fifth one from the left!"
Xu Kun shouted after him, but before he could turn around, he heard "Brother Kun" again.
It was Shen Teng who came back this time.
He had obviously done enough homework, and then called "Producer Chen" again, then stretched out his two hands to hold Xu Kun's hand, and said excitedly: "Brother Kun, thank you, thank you so much, I thought I’ve never had a chance to do movies and TV shows in my life.”
As expected, he was doing comedy, and these words came out of his mouth with a sense of dramatic exaggeration.
"Serious words."
Xu Kun smiled again and corrected: "I have read your resume. You are one year older than me. From now on, we can just call each other by our names."
"That won't work!"
Shen Teng shook his head like a rattle and said seriously: "Brother, you are not old enough. Generally speaking, this represents status; more elegantly speaking, this is called the master as a teacher. This is my first time acting in a TV series. With your qualifications It’s more than enough to be my master, let alone to be called ‘Brother Kun’.”
All these flattering words seemed humorous and interesting when they came into his mouth.
Xu Kun remembered the idea he had come up with a while ago. In his previous life, he had seen it on the news. There was a program that reported all kinds of weird news and then made some spicy or funny comments.
This kind of program should be very popular among current netizens, and it can be broadcast on LeTV for a long time - those who collect letters can also be responsible for collecting weird news in the future.
The most important thing for this kind of program is to find a humorous host.
Shen Teng is quite suitable.
It shouldn't be difficult for a stage actor to switch to variety shows.
But now is not the time to talk about this. The 'Boss Boss' has just assembled the crew, and "Seeing Words Like Faces" has not officially started yet. This matter has to be put aside for a while.
"Teacher Tian!"
At this time, Shen Teng saw Tian Youliang coming out of the conference room and quickly took a few steps forward to bow to the end.
Flattery is a flattery, he knew very well who let him join the team.
However, Tian Youliang ignored him. He just nodded slightly, said "behave well", and quickly chased Xu Kun towards the stairs.
Xu Kun had already bowed to the two new arrivals and said, "Hello, Teacher Xuan, and Hello, Teacher Yang. Thank you for coming to help."
Yang Lixin hurriedly helped Xu Kun up, while Song Yuanju slapped Xu Kun on the shoulder and said: "What kind of teacher is not a teacher? Call me mom!"
Xu Kun covered his shoulders pretending to be aggrieved and complained: "I used to call you Aunt Song. You said you were afraid that I would call you old. Wouldn't calling you 'Mom' make you even older?"
This time Xu Kun invited the two of them to play Meng Hao's parents, which fulfilled his childhood memories of "I Love My Family".
As for Lin Yuxin's parents, they were played by two teachers from China National Theater - the same two who were sent in by Tian Youliang just now.
"Shout or not?"
"Mom~"
"Hey~ My big boy, hahaha~"
