The day I got married with a big star

Chapter 233 Selfishness
Xu Jie came to the director Ye Chu's side, who was anxious about the casting, holding his mobile phone and kept looking at the photos of the second female candidate, muttering in his mouth: "No", "This is not OK", "These I've seen it all, and it doesn't work."

Although "The World" is a low-budget literary film and director Xu Chu's debut, he has very high requirements for each character, otherwise he would not "overthink his capabilities" and hand over the script to Su Yun. Although Su Yun is still a newcomer in the film and television industry, she is a queen-level figure in the music world. Not everyone can be hired here.

However, he never dreamed that the first female lead agreed to play the role and also agreed to reduce her salary, but the second female lead had a problem. The sudden change caught him off guard and made him feel irritable. But it took a lot of effort to convince the female number two, and now...

"Director Ye, I heard from my wife that the second female lead regrets not acting?" Xu Jie asked.

When director Ye Chu saw that it was Xu Jie, a wry smile appeared on his irritable face, and he said embarrassingly, "Yes, Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry for wasting your time with Sister Yun."

After hearing this, Xu Jie said: "Director Ye, I have read your script, and I have a little impression of the role of the second female lead. I know a young actress. Although she is a newcomer, I think the image is very suitable."

As he said that, he took out his mobile phone, found the WeChat account of Mr. Ding's niece of Daniu Group, found a photo in the other party's circle of friends, and showed it to Ye Chu.

When Ye Chu heard that she recommended the female No. [-], he immediately cheered up, thinking that the other party is the director of a TV station and has worked with many female artists, so he must have a wide network.

He set his eyes on the screen of the other party's mobile phone. In the photo is a beautiful woman. She looks pure and well-behaved. It is up to the actor to handle it himself.

"Her name is Ding Mengni. She has guest starred in several TV dramas and also appeared in my show. She has experience. As for her acting skills, she still needs to be trained. If you don't mind, I can ask for you. As for the salary, there is no need to worry, the second female As much as she wants." Xu Jie said.

Ye Chu thought for a while. The budget is limited, and the shooting must not be delayed. Even if the filming is stopped for a day, the crew will have a lot of expenses, so he said: "Mr. Xu, can you call someone over now? I want to see."

"I'll call and ask." Xu Jie dialed Ding Mengni's cell phone number while speaking.

"Beep... beep... click!"

The other side of the phone was quickly connected.

"Hello Director Xu, I'm Ding Mengni." Ding Mengni was a little nervous and a little excited when she received the call. The director of the TV program suddenly called, and the woman's sense told her that something good probably happened.

"Meng Ni, are you in the capital?" Xu Jie asked.

"I'm here" Ding Mengni said immediately.

"It's like this. A friend of mine is filming a movie. There is a role that I think is suitable for you, so I recommended you to him. If you have time now, come and try the role. It's the second female lead. "Xu Jie was worried that the other party would not come, so he used the female number two to seduce the other party.

For a newcomer to the entertainment industry, absolutely no one can resist such an important role as the second female lead in the movie.

"Director Xu, I have time. Where are you, I'll go there now." Ding Mengni said impatiently.

"I'll send you a location via WeChat, call me when you arrive, and I'll pick you up," Xu Jie said.

"Alright Director Xu."

After Xu Jie made the call, he immediately sent the location to Ding Mengni.

……

after an hour.

Xu Jie's cell phone rang, and it was Ding Mengni's call. He got in Su Yun's nanny car and went to the gate of the film and television base, picked up Ding Mengni and went back to the set.

After Ye Chu met Ding Mengni, he felt that the real person was really good, so he asked her to change clothes and make up for an audition.

"She's pretty." Su Yun came to Xu Jie's side and asked, "Where did you meet the little beauty?"

Xu Jie was taken aback when he heard it, turned to look at Su Yun, and asked with a smile, "Why do I smell a lemon?"

"Lemon?" Su Yun was slightly startled, and it took a while to react, and said angrily, "Who is sour? I'm just curious." After speaking, she turned her head to the other side, her ears turned red.

"Curious? I work in a TV station. Don't you know that the most indispensable thing in a TV station is a beautiful woman?" Xu Jie put his hand on the other's shoulder and said in a low voice: "She is the niece of the sponsor. It's a bit selfish to ask her to audition for cooperation, understand?"

Su Yun shrugged her shoulders, pushed away the man's hand, and said flatly: "You don't need to explain to me, and I didn't say anything."

Xu Jie thought hehe, you ate garlic or drank vinegar, can't I smell it?

You just keep acting.

Ding Mengni simply tried a scene, probably because she was called suddenly, she acted a little cautiously, but it can be seen that she is working hard to perform, but there are some shortcomings in her performance, giving people a kind of strength But I can't feel the strength.

"How is it?" Xu Jie asked Ye Chu.

"There is no problem with the image, but I always feel that the acting is not in place, just a little bit." Ye Chu frowned and said, as if he was thinking about something, and he seemed to be struggling with something.

Not satisfied?
This will not work!

"It's normal." Xu Jie said after hearing this: "You just asked her to act in a segment, and you didn't show her the script. If you don't understand the story, you can't understand the role. How can she act well?"

Ye Chu was stunned.

Yup!

He has been comparing the rookie in front of him with the retired actress, but the actress has read the entire script and has a comprehensive and thorough understanding of the character, but the rookie has only read a part, which is because she has no understanding of the character at all. Under the performance, the two people are not comparable at all.

Xu Jie noticed that Ding Mengni looked a little disappointed, probably because he saw the director frowning, and guessed that the performance just now did not satisfy the director, so he was a little worried and anxious

In fact, Xu Jie was more anxious than anyone present. If Ding Mengni was not suitable, would Ye Chu have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to find a suitable actress?

He thought for a while and then said: "I think a director should not only be able to make a good story, but also be able to stimulate the performance potential of the actors. The director is the one who guides the actors how to perform. If the actors read the script, they can act well. So what do you want a director to do?"

Ye Chu froze for a moment, what he said... makes sense!
He had worked as a screenwriter and an assistant director before, but this was his first time as a director. He wanted to make his debut so well that he ignored the director's guidance and influence on the actors.

During these days, he has been instructing the actors how to act, but he has not instructed the actors how to act well. As a director, this is completely unqualified.

He turned around and looked at Sister Yun's husband. As expected of a program director of a TV station, his realm was different.

"Thank you Mr. Xu for your guidance." Ye Chu said seriously: "Your words are so useful to me, I will definitely take it as my motto on the way of directing, and always remind myself, thank you."

what?
Xu Jie was startled

Fuck, what did I just say?

I just want you to hurry up and shoot the film, don't waste time on the selection of people, and delay the shooting of "Crossover Actors", my time will be wasted.

Don't take it seriously!
