Chapter 59 Hidden Rules [200 Monthly Tickets for Additional Updates]
Zhou Yutang stopped writing and looked sideways at Zhang Songwen: "Teacher Zhang, let her do a section?"
Zhang Songwen He smiled and said, "Well, Yu Tang will help with the scene."
The one Yang Mi was asked to audition for was Liu Jiayi, the heroine of "Those Years". She was the school beauty goddess in the minds of countless boys and secretly fell in love with the male protagonist Zhou Yutang. status.
Zhou Yutang stood up, walked up to Yang Mi, and reminded: "There is no script, you can do whatever you want."
Then he held the book and pretended to read, acting like a tool.
“Okay.”
Yang Mi nodded and adjusted her mood a little.
She took a few steps, holding her head high and chest high, with a smile on her lips, as if she was as proud as a school belle.
When I saw Zhou Yutang, her bright eyes flashed with surprise, her hands were behind her back, and from another angle, she could see her fingers tangled together, showing joy mixed with tangles. An emotional state.
"Hello, Zhou Yutang."
Yang Mi patted Zhou Yutang's shoulder, her breathing seemed a little faster than usual, she pursed her lips and said, "Do you have time on the weekend, let's go watch a movie together?"
"Well, very good, let's go back and wait for the news."
Let Yang Mi read the lines and try out two scenes. After about twenty minutes, she closed the door and came out.
When Yang Mi came out, she went through it in her head and confirmed that she had not made any mistakes and her performance should be above the standard. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and her steps were brisk.
"I think Yang Mi is pretty good."
One of the middle-aged people in the room commented: "The little flower in charge of Lung Da is very popular. She has also filmed a movie directed by Li Shaohong and has rich acting experience."< br>
Teacher Zhang Songwen also expressed his opinion: "The age is just right, and I have the feeling of a school beauty, but the emotional expression is a little bit less intense."
Lin Liang glanced at Zhou Yutang and nodded. He smiled and said: "Yang Mi has a good figure. Wearing a shirt and school uniform will give her a great advantage."
"Don't worry, let's continue."
Zhou Yutang marked Yang Mi's name and continued the audition.
The next one to try is Jiang Yiyan.
As a senior at the film school, she has a very good handle on both her body, temperament and acting style.
Not only did it receive unanimous praise from everyone present, but even Zhou Yutang also highlighted her name.
In terms of pure strength, she ranks first.
Then actresses continued to come in for auditions. Zhou Yutang looked through the list. Liu Shishi seemed to be the last one in the morning, behind a female model named Zhang Jiao.
Mr. Cai, Mr. Cai, is this also your plan?
Zhou Yutang smiled.
There is something to be said for the audition ranking order.
For example, if the person who auditions for a role before you is a very capable actor, then you will be at a disadvantage if you audition after him. There is an expectation gap, and the interviewer will subconsciously put you in front of him. One comparison.
But if the actors who audition before you are not very good and you have certain advantages, then when you go in to audition and perform normally, this advantage will be amplified.
"Liu Shishi."
The last audition in the morning was just like the last class. Everyone was more or less relaxed and chatted left and right.
But when Liu Shishi walked into the room, everyone couldn't help but sit up straight and immediately stopped talking.
Everyone’s eyes lit up instantly.
With this beautiful and gentle face, wearing a small white skirt and white shoes, she looks like a pure campus goddess.
As usual, Liu Shishi was asked to tie a ponytail. Liu Shishi was slightly startled and obeyed.
A black elastic hairband was wrapped around her fair wrist. She moved her hair with both hands and neatly tied her black hair into a smart ponytail.
Well, in terms of image, I can get full marks.
Everyone nodded.
Next came the lines, which I barely got through.
It’s the audition’s turn.
Especially when she stands with the male protagonist Zhou Yutang, the indescribable harmonious beauty is really pleasing to the eye.
“Don’t be nervous.”
Zhou Yutang whispered encouragement, and Liu Shishi responded with a sweet smile.
...
Lin Liang opened his mouth and said: "Another eye scene where he has a crush on the male protagonist."
"."
Zhou Yutang glanced at Senior Brother Lin Liang, suspecting that he was with Mr. Cai from the Tang Dynasty has a holiday.
I have a very good relationship with Liu Shishi. I know her strengths and weaknesses, and she is good at costume fight scenes, but it was difficult for Shishi to arrange the eye scene scene.
Liu Shishi was not afraid at all. His ponytail was slightly raised, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his pear dimples were slightly visible.
He opened his bright eyes and looked straight at the tool man Zhou Yutang.
Zhou Yutang: "."
Zhang Songwen: "."
The whole room fell into silence.
As a person involved, Zhou Yutang feels the most intuitive.
As for the smile, Liu Shishi is definitely sweet enough, and she is also the school belle, but her eyes are a bit off.
Maybe Shi Shi has tried hard to perform, but the effect is not ideal.
How to describe it?
It’s a bit like a short-sighted student, who has a dull look in his eyes that is out of focus and is focused on listening to the teacher’s lectures in class.
"Very good, there is no problem. I will contact your agency if it passes."
Liu Shishi originally wanted to open her mouth to talk to Zhou Yutang, but she noticed what was happening and saw that there were so many people in the audition room. After all, he didn't have the nerve to speak, so he just smiled at Zhou Yutang and said goodbye politely.
The audition came to an end in the morning, and then there was a meeting, mainly to discuss the selection of the heroine.
Huo Siyan is well-known and beautiful, but Zhou Yutang thought it was too glamorous and a bit promiscuous, so he was the first to rule it out.
Also, Zhang Jiani is not considered. Her figure and appearance are worthy of a college beauty, but unfortunately she is a bit cold and glamorous.
This type of beauties have one thing in common, that is, they are more aggressive and good-looking, which does not match well with the gentle and innocent school belle temperament in "Those Years".
So far, Jiang Yiyan's performance is very good, with a good image and temperament, and his acting skills are also very eye-catching.
Then there are Yang Mi and Liu Shishi.
The discussion was quite intense. Brother Lin Liang felt that Yang Mi had great advantages
Teacher Zhang Songwen felt that Liu Shishi’s image and temperament were more suitable for the heroine and she was very malleable.
As for the eye scene, it’s almost fun now, but Teacher Zhang is very confident in himself and thinks he can teach it slowly.
Of course.
The final decision-making power rests with Zhou Yutang. After all, he is the investor + director + leading actor of this drama.
They think it’s okay, but at most it’s just a suggestion. Only Zhou Yutang nods, then it’s really okay.
“Take a break first and continue later.”
Zhou Yutang pondered for a while and rubbed his forehead.
For now, he agrees with Teacher Zhang Songwen’s opinion.
The first look and temperament of the heroine are the most critical elements of this drama.
Standing there, Liu Shishi had a sense of peace and tranquility, and she was the school beauty without having to act.
First pick: Liu Shishi.
But I won’t make a decision yet.
A group of actresses came to audition in the afternoon. Senior Brother Lin Liang suggested that they try their luck at art examination sites across the country.
With the population base of China, there is no shortage of beauties, but there is a lack of eyes that can discover beauty.
This film project has just been established. In order to cooperate with Li Xiaoping's work, the preliminary preparation work will take four months.
During this period, you can slowly search until you find the most suitable candidate.
As soon as he came out for some air and made a phone call, he saw Cai Yinong not far away smiling and waving to him.
Zhou Yutang said helplessly: "Sister Cai, you haven't left yet?"
"I have something to do with you. Can we find a room to chat?"
Cai Yinong smiled like It's an old fox.
“.”
Zhou Yutang had reason to suspect that Cai Yinong wanted to make unspoken rules for himself.
As a serious young man who wanted to make progress, he refused righteously on the spot: "Mr. Cai, if you want to talk about the audition, then we have nothing to talk about. I have a nickname called The Selfless."
“Don’t talk about this.”
Cai Yinong said lightly: “That’s right, I have a big project worth tens of millions and I want to talk to you about it. You have always been very visionary. OK, can you give me some advice?”
“I’m very busy, Mr. Cai.”
"Don't worry, I won't let you suffer."
"Please come this way."
Zhou Yutang reluctantly led the way.
After hanging out with Senior Brother Liu Jiang for a while, his entire realm has been sublimated.
Since Sister Cai is in trouble, he will definitely be willing to lend a helping hand.
Cai Yinong curled his lips.
She finally saw it clearly. This guy has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, and he is very difficult to deal with.
Small room, red sofa.
Zhou Yutang poured a cup of tea for Mr. Cai, and listened with interest to Mr. Cai's talk about a large project worth tens of millions.
Everyone knows.
Tangren Film and Television started out by producing costume dramas. The movie "Sword and Fairy" brought out the unrivaled popularity of Zhao Ling'er and Li Xiaoyao. Now the industry has labeled Tangren as a company that specializes in producing high-quality costume dramas.
"Sister Cai, I roughly understand what you mean. Is the Tang Dynasty going to start the filming plan of "Sword and Sword III" in advance?" Zhou Yutang supported his chin with both hands and nodded slightly: "I have played the game Sword and Sword III. However, I probably understand what Mr. Cai means. He wants me to play the leading role of Jingtian. When will the filming start?"
"There is no problem with me, the movie project has to wait. In a few months, we can adjust the schedule and join the team at any time."
Cai Yinong's face darkened, he shook his head and said decisively: "The male lead belongs to Hu Ge, and the contract has been signed. This is not the case. Possibly.”
"Xu Changqing can give it to you."
"Mr. Cai, you are trying to embarrass me."
A look of embarrassment was just right on Zhou Yutang's face.
“Add a portion of the investment share!”
Mr. Cai gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
She was reluctant to let go of the child and couldn't trap the wolf. She really had a massive arterial hemorrhage.
Zhou Yutang's expression moved slightly, he pondered for a long time, and then reluctantly said: "Forget it, Sister Cai, you have already spoken. I have to help you with this favor no matter what, but I have a condition. I will write the script when the time comes. , I want to change the character and plot.”
Sword and Sword III is a popular IP in China, and Zhou Yutang has also played the game.
The identity of Xu Changqing in the game is an abandoned disciple of Shushan. He has long hair and a shawl. He is a bit of a scumbag and has an indecisive personality. In the end, he watched Zixuan die in order to seal the Demon Locking Tower. It was not very pleasing.
If it is made into a TV series, the character design will definitely have to be modified. Zhou Yutang has some inspiration in his mind. If he plays the role, he can add his own drama.
A serious and rigid, yet rational and steady, powerful, handsome and handsome Shushan swordsman in white.
In the end, for the sake of the truth in his heart and for the sake of the people in the world, he resolutely gave up everything.
Such a role is quite touching to play, and Zhou Yutang wanted to challenge it.
Of course.
The important thing is not the role.
is the investment share of this project.
This is the biggest bargaining chip given by Cai Yinong.
After chatting about the "Sword and Sword III" project for a while, Cai Yinong's forehead throbbed with veins, feeling that he was being tricked by Zhou Yutang.
She suddenly changed the subject and asked an irrelevant question: "Yu Tang, how was the audition this morning?"
"Everything was okay, Jiang Yiyan performed the best."< br>
Zhou Yutang took a sip of water, glanced at her, and said deliberately.
“Why is it her?”
Cai Yinong was somewhat unexpectedly surprised.
"Is it an accident?"
Zhou Yutang looked calm and smiled calmly: "Jiang Yiyan just finished filming a movie "Double Food Chronicles" this year, which was directed by our senior brother Zhao Tianyu from Nortel. She plays the second female lead, opposite Wu Zhenyu and Yu Nan. I just asked the teacher at the film school for Brother Zhao’s contact information. After asking, Sister Jiang performed very well in that drama.”
What!
Co-starring with Golden Horse Award-winning actor Wu Zhenyu and mainland Golden Rooster Award-winning actress Yu Nan, you still performed well?
Cai Yinong fainted, with a complicated expression on his face.
Zhou Yutang saw that Cai Yinong seemed to be slightly shocked, a slight arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, and asked warmly: "Sister Cai, are you okay?"
"I It’s okay.”
Cai Yinong picked up the tea cup and took a sip, his expression returned to calm, and he glanced at Zhou Yutang: "If you leave aside this Jiang Yiyan, how will our family's Shi Shi perform?"
"Shi Shi is also very good. , the image and temperament can get almost full marks."
Before Cai Yinong's face showed joy, Zhou Yutang shook his head: "However, the eye scene is not that interesting, which is a pity, and Yang Mi's overall condition is not as good as hers. Shi Shicha."
Mr. Cai couldn't stand it any longer. He gritted his teeth and finally got to the point: "I think Shi Shi is more suitable for this role than anyone else. If you have any other conditions, it's up to you!"
What sister is playing today is unspoken rules!
afternoon.
Preliminary audition is over.
Zhou Yutang made the decision directly.
The heroine of "Those Years" was finally selected as Liu Shishi.
In fact, the conditions of Jiang Yiyan and Senior Yang Mi are pretty good.
To be fair.
Jiang Yiyan has the highest overall score in acting.
Yang Mi followed closely in scoring, but the top two eventually lost unfortunately.
The reason is also very simple.
Cai Yinong gritted his teeth and paid a certain price, and secretly reached a certain deal with Zhou Yutang.
This is the unspoken rule in the legend.
This movie by Zhou Yutang uses Liu Shishi as the heroine, and the conditions in exchange are very generous.
First, Zhou Yutang has priority in the investment share of the "Sword and Sword III" project, plus the role of Xu Changqing, as well as important roles in the shooting plans of the next few TV series.
Second, Tangren Film and Television has reached a comprehensive cooperation with Jiangdong Film and Television Cultural Studio. Some of Tangren Film and Television’s Hong Kong and Taiwan resource channels can be opened to Jiangdong Studio. In addition, the behind-the-scenes team and production team are also open to Jiangdong Studio.
At this stage, Tangren Film and Television is one of the few private film and television drama production companies in the country, ranking among the top three in terms of revenue!
Cai Yinong made his fortune in Xiangjiang, and he has some connections in the film and television circles in Xiangjiang and Wanwan.
Zhou Yutang didn't care much about those relationships. He had no intention of licking the Hong Kong circle.
But the drunkard’s interest is not in drinking. He is quite interested in the team behind Tangren Film and Television.
Jiangdong Studio is now a small workshop. If it wants to develop, it must make up for this shortcoming. Cultivating a production team is a very long process. In the short term, borrowing the Tangren behind-the-scenes team is the best choice. .
Zhou Yutang went back to review the situation.
The development route he has set for himself is to blossom into high-quality hit TV series and movies.
He wants them all!
The idea is very simple. TV dramas can gather popularity, consolidate and solidify the foundation, and enhance national popularity.
Movies are the best way to improve your status.
As long as there is national popularity, it will be invincible. By then, even if the movie tries to test the water and the box office is not ideal, it can still stabilize the basic base of popularity.
Originally, Zhou Yutang's first choice for the heroine was Liu Yifei.
Purely from an investor's perspective, if Liu Tianxian is cast as the heroine, this project will immediately gain popularity.
Liu Tianxian’s huge fan base is all potential movie tickets.
Zhou Yutang is confident that, not to mention the movie’s box office success, the final result will definitely be above the standard line.
It’s a pity that Aunt Liu has great supernatural powers and has taken over a large-scale production worth more than 300 million yuan for Tianxian. There is no schedule at all this year.
In short, the positions are different and cannot be forced.
Then again, Liu Shishi was originally the first choice in the audition.
Her conditions are also very superior.
She has a pretty face and has been practicing ballet since she was a child. Her body and temperament are very good, especially her ponytail, which is very amazing.
She is absolutely the beauty of the school.
Do you want to say that the eye scene is not good?
Teacher Zhang Songwen is very confident, let him teach slowly.
For the first time in life there are unspoken rules.
Zhou Yutang felt that he was making a lot of money.
Mr. Cai also feels that he is not at a loss this time.
Zhou Yutang is in the limelight this year and has become synonymous with handsome guys. His momentum is even slightly surpassing that of Hu Ge who has just come back. Liu Shishi can play with Zhou Yutang, which can be said to raise his status.
When the time comes, coupled with the hype of Tangren’s best marketing press releases, Liu Shishi’s celebrity status will at least rise to a higher level.
"Mr. Cai, you really let Zhou Yutang play Xu Changqing, and you still want to participate in the investment?"
When I walked out of the hotel, the assistant next to me probably knew about this and couldn't help but ask Cai Yi Nong.
“Well, I always feel that this guy has something up his sleeve. This movie might give people a surprise.”
Mr. Cai nodded calmly.
Actually, it was because she failed to participate in the TV series "Want to See You" last time. She almost got a swollen thigh from filming, and then she stared at Zhou Yutang's movements.
In this movie audition, Mr. Cai ran directly to Zhou Yutang as soon as he heard about it.
After so many years, as a strong woman who climbed from the bottom to where she is today, Mr. Cai is known for her unique vision.
At least so far, the people and projects that Mr. Cai is optimistic about rarely have accidents.
"What do you think of the company over there? This project should be cooperated with several companies over there. We have had many meetings and discussions. The preliminary preparations are almost complete. We are just waiting to choose from Huo Jianhua and Qiu Ze."< br>
“I tried to find a reason to reject it, and the one with the worst background was eliminated directly.
Anyway, there was no contract signed. We have a long-term cooperation agreement. The next TV series will still let their people be the protagonists. ”
Mr. Cai’s thinking is very clear, that is, he must eat both ends.
Even if there is a price to pay over there, Zhou Yutang can get more benefits here, so it is worth doing.
As for Zhou Yutang's intention to borrow the behind-the-scenes team of Tangren Film and Television, he would have to pay for it, so it was considered as giving benefits to his employees to make extra money.
Get in the car.
Cai Yinong saw the elegant and beautiful Liu Shishi, and said in a gentle tone: "Shi Shi, the heroine is yours."
"Huh?"
Liu Shishi himself was a little confused when he heard the news.
At that time, there were many people sitting in the room. She was taken out by her assistant Xiao Tao after her audition. She didn't have time to say hello to Zhou Yutang, and she didn't know what happened next.
"Silly girl, I said that the casting of Zhou Yutang's movie has been finalized, and you are the heroine."
Cai Yinong looked at Liu Shishi's confused expression , I felt funny and happy for a while.
This feeling.
It's like seeing your younger self, getting a rare opportunity by chance and being dazzled by the surprise.
Zhou Yutang's handsome face with clear and cold cheek lines appeared in Liu Shishi's mind.
An impulse suddenly emerged in my heart.
