Entertainment from Divorce

Chapter 948 Fan Shan and Wang Xiang

"Teacher Fan?"

Qian Tao's voice pulled back Fan Shan's slightly messy thoughts.

"I'm sorry, I was a little excited to hear what Director Qian said. It feels like a dream." Fan Shan explained.

"It's okay, Mr. Fan, what Mr. Qian said is true. This TV series of mine just wants you to be the number one male."

"Mr. Tan, I'm afraid this is not appropriate."

"What's inappropriate?" Tan Yue asked.

Qian Tao on the side also has this doubt. If there is a director in the industry who cannot refuse a play, it must be Tan Yue. I don't know how many actors are vying for a role in the play.

Fan Shan was not overwhelmed by the surprise at this moment, and expressed his concerns: "I, an old man, should not be suitable to play the male number one role? I want to be famous and not famous, I want fans to have no fans, and I didn't get any ratings when it was broadcast. Rate guarantee. I think you should think again, don't affect your reputation in the circle because of me. "

"Teacher Fan, you are prejudiced against me by saying that. Reputation is important in our industry, but it is not absolute. A movie, a TV series, even if it has an all-star lineup, without acting skills and only traffic Under the circumstances, it will definitely not be popular in this era. The current audience is not stupid, and it is impossible to go far by relying on traffic actors alone. In terms of criteria for selecting actors, I will always have only one criterion, and that is suitability."

Tan Yue paused for a moment, then continued: "Teacher Fan, you will definitely like this character in this play. There is no one in the whole circle who is more suitable for this role than you."

"Mr. Tan, I apologize for what I said just now. I didn't consider it well. Since Mr. Tan said everything, I must try this role."

Now Fan Shan finally understands why Tan Yue achieved his current position in the entertainment industry at such a young age.Just as Tan Yue said, if a director blindly pursues flow, he is doomed to not last long.

He has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and he has seen many real examples.

"The script is on the desk, get it for me."

"okay."

Qian Tao got up to get the script, Tan Yue said: "Teacher Fan, drink tea."

Tan Yue said: "Teacher Fan, let's try a scene first."

"Of course no problem."

No matter how good the fit between the actor and the role is, the audition process is indispensable. Fan Shan expressed his understanding of this very well, and his impression of Tan Yue is getting better and better. Before that, he had a good impression of the legendary Tan Yue. Impression, now it is a good impression of this person in reality.

"President Tan, the script."

"Okay." Tan Yue took the script and said, "This is Wang Xiang's biography, and Wang Xiang will be your next character."

Fan Shan looked at the biographies and listened to Tan Yue's introduction.

"This is the script and the outline of the story. Please read it first, and we will try this scene later." Tan Yue pointed to a plot in the script.

"give me some time."

Tan Yue gave an "um" and sat aside to drink some tea.

Fan Shan calmed down the excitement in his heart, he hadn't been excited because of looking forward to a script for a long time, it was because the person who wrote the script was called Tan Yue.

Excitement is nothing but excitement. After so many years of working in the industry, my psychological quality has already been trained, and I quickly entered the state, focusing on reading the biographies of the characters.

Tan Yue and Qian Tao agreed tacitly without disturbing each other, they sat aside and waited for Fan Shan to familiarize himself with the plot and characters.

Time passed by every minute and every second. After reading the biography of the characters, Fan Shan couldn't wait to pick up the outline of the story and get familiar with it.

Just a biography of a character aroused his great interest. The whole timeline is very long, spanning 20 years, and the characters of each era also have significant changes. All these need to be interpreted and mastered by the actors themselves. Test the actor's acting skills.

Fan Shan likes such scenes very much.

After familiarizing himself with the outline of the story, he had a general understanding of the whole plot.

To be honest, he likes this drama very much, because the background of the whole story happened in the Northeast. When reading the script, Fan Shan felt a kind of cordial feeling when he saw the lines in the script.

"Boss Tan?"

"What's wrong, Teacher Fan?"

"I want to ask an off topic."

"You say."

"Are you from the Northeast?"

Tan Yue smiled and shook his head, "No."

Fan Shan explained: "I have such doubts because I saw that the Northeast flavor in the script is too strong."

Tan Yue took a sip of tea without changing his face, and found a random reason: "There is a relative in the family who is from the Northeast, and he is usually more interested in the Northeast dialect."

Fan Shan nodded and continued to devote himself to the script.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and if it wasn't for the rehearsal, Fan Shan would have read the entire script.

"Mr. Tan, I'm ready, we can start."

Tan Yue said: "Then we are looking forward to Teacher Fan's performance."

This scene is a plot of Wang Xiang's youth. Fan Shan adjusted his state slightly to keep himself in a young state.Then the script was put aside and the performance began.

Tan Yue and Qian Tao could intuitively feel that Fan Shan was in another state.

The two also gradually sank into watching the performance.

A scene lasted only a few minutes, and as Fan Shan's performance ended, the office burst into applause.

"Wonderful, so wonderful!" Tan Yue praised.

Qian Tao on the side was deeply impressed.

In his opinion, Fan Shan has not appeared in the audience's field of vision for a long time, maybe he has long been out of touch with the times, and his acting skills will regress, but there is still a very reason why he is called an old drama player. Fan Shan's performance can crush many people in today's entertainment industry.

What surprised Qian Tao even more was that in this short period of time, Fan Shan's control over 'Wang Xiang' was already very high, as if he had read the script before.

Only now did he understand why Tan Yue found such an old actor.

"thanks, thanks."

"Teacher Fan, have a cup of tea and take a break." Tan Yue said, "Your performance just now was really wonderful, it can be called a textbook-level performance."

"Mr. Tan, you are flattering me too much. There are still many things that I did not perform well in the performance just now."

"In such a short period of time, very few people can understand a character so well." Tan Yue stretched out his thumb: "Old drama, you are indeed an old drama."

The performance just now was exactly what he wanted. The strong Northeast flavor is a major feature of this drama.

Tan Yue picked up the cup: "Let's replace wine with tea. Congratulations to Mr. Fan for passing the audition. The next role will belong to you."

Fan Shan quickly picked up the cup: "Thank you, thank you Mr. Tan for giving me such an opportunity as an old man, I will definitely play well."

The three of them clinked their cups, and after drinking the tea, there was a burst of laughter.

Fan Shan said with emotion: "It feels like a dream. I didn't expect to be able to cooperate with Director Tan Da one day. No one will believe it if I tell it."

While speaking, there was a trace of sadness on his face. Thinking about it carefully, he hadn't joined the crew for almost seven years. On the one hand, there were no good dramas, and on the other hand, it was because there were no good dramas that would find him, an old actor who had come to his senses.

A few days ago, I was still worrying about the script, when I suddenly received a call, I almost thought it was a scam call.Came to the capital to join the most powerful entertainment company in China, met the most famous director, and played the leading role in the play.
Apart from encountering this series of things in dreams, how could it happen to me at other times?
"Now the domestic entertainment industry needs old actors like you. It is also a trend at present. Many crews will find some old actors in the drama to support the drama. I believe you will get better and better in the future."

I saw Fan Shan shaking his head and said: "This situation is also for some popular old actors, even if they are old actors, they have no reputation..."

Tan Yue didn't refute this time, what Fan Shan said was very reasonable, and the old actors can be divided into popular and not popular.

If you want an old drama to get out of the circle, the first and most important thing is to have a good quality drama, otherwise it will still not be familiar to the audience.

Qian Tao said: "Teacher Fan, I believe that after you finish filming Mr. Tan's drama, it will become popular again, so that you will be soft when you take on dramas in the future."

What he said was not an exaggeration at all. Zhang Shengwen, who became popular with "Hurricane", received invitations from many crews.What's even more exaggerated is that even a small role in Zhang Shengwen's previous dramas has been dug up and watched by many netizens.

What's more, Fan Shan is still the number one male in the play, and more crews will definitely look for him.

"Director Qian is right, filming Mr. Tan's drama will definitely make the audience remember me again."

Fan Shan was very happy, the happiest in seven years.

Tan Yue said: "The biography, plot outline, and script are all yours. It will take a while to prepare for the start, so you should prepare well. I believe that with Teacher Fan's participation, this drama will definitely achieve a satisfactory result."

Fan Shan said sternly: "This drama is a memory of our era. During this time, I will definitely prepare the characters and the plot well, and I will definitely satisfy you, Mr. Tan, before starting the show."

"let's work hard together!"

Tan Yue ordered: "Mr. Qian, take Teacher Fan to sign the relevant contract."

"Leave the rest to me." Qian Tao got up: "Teacher Fan, come with me."

"Mr. Tan, I'm going back first."

Before leaving, Tan Yue asked: "Take good care of Teacher Fan."

Under the leadership of Qian Tao, Fan Shan returned to the conference room of the TV drama department, and the two chatted while waiting for the secretary to deliver the contract.

After ten minutes.

Qian Tao said: "I'm done with my work, now you just wait for the crew to start up."

"sorry to bother you."

"It's all what I should do. Are you living in the capital, or are you going back to Shencheng?"

Fan Shan pointed to the backpack: "My son's family is in the capital, I'll go and see them."

"Well, let me arrange for you, and the company will send you directly to the place."

"It's too much trouble, I can go by myself."

"You don't have to be polite when you're old."

Fan Shan didn't hesitate: "Thank you."

Sitting in the car, Fan Shan smiled more and more happily as he recalled the experience of the past half day.

After sending Fan Shan away, Qian Tao came to Tan Yue's office to report the situation.

"Mr. Tan, Teacher Fan's related contracts have been signed."

Tan Yue let out a "hmm", and the smoothness far exceeded expectations.

Although old actors like Fan Shan haven't appeared in the audience's field of vision for a long time, it's not that they have no scenes to shoot.It's that they have relatively high demands on themselves, and they will not easily accept a drama.

Tan Yue believes that in the past seven years, it is absolutely impossible for Fan Shan not to have received an invitation from a crew, but he has not met the requirements.

Although Fan Shan has lost the fame of the past, his appearance can definitely awaken the memory of the audience.

Tan Yue put down his glass and said, "Find some suitable actors and arrange an audition in a few days."

The selection of actors for "The Long Season" has officially begun.

Qian Tao replied, "I'll go back and prepare right away."

The plot is very short and requires relatively few actors, so the preparatory work for selecting actors can be completed quickly.

Qian Tao came out of the office, went straight to his own office, and turned on the computer.

There are not many actors needed, but they must all be actors with online acting skills.

This time when Tan Yue comes back to film a TV series, there will inevitably be a lot of attention from both inside and outside the circle. Every role in the play must choose the most suitable actor.

Qian Tao first opened the company's internal actor list and began to look for suitable actors.

This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, no matter which actor can grasp it, it is very easy to become a hit.

Of course, Qian Tao will not put all his eyes on the company's actors, as long as the company has no suitable candidates, he will find actors from outside the company.

After sorting out the internal actor information, Qian Tao began to look for actors from other places.

Ma Guoliang, who had nothing to do recently, re-read the materials on improving his acting skills.

As for many people who said recently that they wanted him to publish a book, they politely refused.

He felt that his ability had not yet reached that stage.

'Dong dong dong' came the sound of knocking on the door.

"Please come in." Ma Guoliang put down the book in his hand and looked towards the door.

The people who come in are brokers.

"Teacher Ma." The agent looked mysterious, making sure that Ma Guoliang was the only one in the office, looked back at the door, and closed the door.

"what happened?"

"I heard something big?"

"What's the big deal? What's the big deal?"

There was only one person in the office, and the manager's voice was still very low: "I just heard someone say that Mr. Tan is preparing a new drama."

"Isn't this a normal thing? It's not a big deal." Ma Guoliang took a sip and said, "The previous "Langya Bang" and "Hurricane" were all scripts written by Mr. Tan."

"That's not what I meant. I heard that Mr. Tan took the film himself this time."

"Mr. Tan took the picture himself?" Ma Guoliang didn't quite believe it: "Where did you hear this gossip?"

"A friend in the TV drama department heard that the selection of actors has already started. Don't worry, this news is absolutely true."

Ma Guoliang was very surprised to see the agent's serious face. Generally, directors transition from TV dramas to movies, and it is rare for them to go back.
