Light and shadow player

Chapter 56

Cheng Lingfeng received an invitation from Xinlang.com to invite her and Cheng Yu'an to participate in Xinlang.com's 2003 News Selection Evening.

Overtly and secretly, he said that he would give Remote Media an annual film award.

Cheng Lingfeng refused decisively.

Because Feng Xiaogang will also be attending the party, Cheng Lingfeng doesn't know what Xinlang is thinking. The two movies are very popular during the Lunar New Year. At this time, bringing the two together is just to make big news.

The Golden Rooster Award was stepped on, and Xu Cairen was used to carry the sedan chair with 4000 million box office. Cheng Lingfeng learned to be smart.

Play this kind of party on your own, I won't accompany you.

So I found an excuse: "The filming of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been going on for several days, and the leading actor is still missing. I have to be busy casting roles, and I really don't have time. Yu'an is running around for promotion now, and I can't even come."

Also pushed this matter away.

In fact, what she said was right, she didn't sleep well for several nights because of Li Xiaoyao's casting.

I searched for several colleges, including dance colleges and media colleges. I had to interview no less than 10 people a day, but they couldn't get her eyes.

Cheng Yu'an and his group moved from Shanghai to the capital for publicity, but Cheng Lingfeng came to Shanghai School of Drama.

"Sister Cheng." When Lei Datou heard that Cheng Lingfeng was coming to the Academy of Drama to cast a role, he offered to accompany her.

"What have you been up to lately?" Of course Cheng Lingfeng knew Lei Jiayin.

"I'm in school." Lei Jiayin privately spoke with a strong northeast accent.

"If you have time, come to the crew of "Sword and Sword" to play a cameo." Cheng Lingfeng said.

"Hey, thank you sister." Lei Jiayin looked old, and Yile's face was full of wrinkles.

But people who like it like this one very much, and they will think that he looks festive.

Accompanied by Lei Jiayin, the two came to the Academic Affairs Office together.

After saying hello to the school in advance, Cheng Lingfeng explained the purpose of coming, and accompanied by the staff, they checked the student files for the past two years.

The Shanghai Academy of Drama is very lenient for students to accept plays, not as strict as the Beijing Film Academy.

"Is he at school?" Cheng Lingfeng pointed to a boy on the file and asked.

"Zhang Danfeng, level 00, I haven't heard that he has accepted a role recently, so he should still be in school."

Cheng Lingfeng saw that Zhang Danfeng had a good image, so he wanted to give it a try.

"What about this?" The teacher of the Academic Affairs Office offered to recommend a student.

Li Li, also from level 00.

Cheng Lingfeng looked at it and shook her head: "I want a male lead in ancient costumes. Li Li's face is too hard, and ancient costumes don't look good."

"Sister Cheng, look at my classmate." Lei Jiayin was talking about his classmate Sun Yizhou.

Cheng Lingfeng looked at the photo of Sun Yizhou on the file, and the young man looked very energetic: "Tell him to try."

Cheng Lingfeng looked through the student files, but he still couldn't find a male lead that satisfied him, so he just got up and said to the teacher in the Academic Affairs Office: "Then trouble the teacher to inform Zhang Danfeng and Sun Yizhou that I will have an interview after an hour, and I have to trouble the teacher Give me an empty classroom."

"No trouble, no trouble."

After leaving the Academic Affairs Office, Cheng Lingfeng asked Lei Jiayin, "Do you know where I can get two sets of ancient costumes?"

Lei Jiayin patted her chest and said, "Are you going to use it for the audition? Leave it to me. I'll make sure to get it for Sister Cheng. The Drama Academy lacks everything, except for costumes."

"Okay, then you bring me two sets to the audition classroom."

"okay."

I don't know who leaked the news, saying that Cheng Yu'an's aunt, the chairman of Long Distance Media, came to the Drama Academy to choose the leading actor.

This group of young people at school couldn't sit still, and they all inquired about the source of the incident.

After getting confirmation from a big-headed classmate who didn't want to be named, everyone believed that Cheng Lingfeng was really cast in the academy.

As a result, originally only Zhang Danfeng and Sun Yizhou were invited to audition, but now there are dozens of people outside the audition room.

Some came to watch the excitement, and some came to try their luck.

Brother Hu and Yuan Hong just came to watch the excitement.

"Boss Cai won't let us act remotely, but let's take a look at the head office."

Lei Jiayin found an acquaintance in the crowd, and joked at the time:

"Why do you have the face to come?"

The visitor has thin lips, pimples, and makeup. If Cheng Yu'an was here, he would definitely recognize who he is.

Guo Jingfei didn't want to come to the audition, he just came to watch the excitement, and replied Lei Jiayin: "Tsk tsk tsk, didn't you just shoot "Butterfly Effect", it's so frustrating to see you, why didn't you do it? Director Cheng didn't take you to run a promotion What? Why are you still in school?"

"It's not uncommon for me to go." Lei Jiayin participated in the premiere in Shanghai, and then stopped going to the national road show.

"Then why is Liu Yifei so rare? After all, he's still not popular."

"You don't want to stay cool, I have to help Sister Cheng arrange an audition."

…………

On the other hand, "Butterfly Effect" received 3 million box office in 1400 days in the first weekend, which is a little short of the 1500 million record of "Mobile".

However, Hua Yi was also in a cold sweat from shock.

Cheng Yu'an entered the Lunar New Year film for the first time, and the results were so good. "Butterfly Effect" was released two weeks later than "Mobile Phone", and the box office in the first weekend was almost the same.

As for "Infernal Affairs III", which is also in the Lunar New Year file?Huayi didn't take Yu Dong seriously at all. The box office of this film can be up to 3000 to [-] million. It is a bit difficult for Hong Kong films to make a big box office in the Mainland.

Huayi felt the pressure, "Mobile" had been released for more than two weeks, Feng Xiaogang had to lead the crew to start a new round of publicity.

Meanwhile, Cheng Yu'an and his group, who were in Jindu with the crew, were having dinner together accompanied by the theater party.

"Butterfly Effect" has been released for a week, and the originally planned 10-day national road show is coming to an end.

When you come to Jindu, you must eat hot pot!
"Come, come, our sincerity in entertaining outsiders is mandarin duck pot!" A representative of Pacific Cinemas warmly welcomed Cheng Yu'an and his party.

Cheng Yu'an likes people from Sichuan Province, and for no other reason than to listen to people from Sichuan Province, which is very interesting.

There is nothing quite like eating a real Sichuan hotpot in winter.

This meal satisfied Cheng Yu'an.

The next day, Cheng Yuan was woken up by an overseas phone call:
"Cheng! Our movie is on fire!"

It's Bob, his manager in America.

He hasn't received a call from Bob for a long time, and he is really incompetent as a boss.

"Speak slowly, Bob, what's going on?" Cheng Yu'an rubbed his face.

"'Love Actually' did very well in its release! It grossed 6000 million U.S. dollars in North America, and now the global box office has exceeded 1.5 million U.S. dollars. Cheng, do you know what this means?"

"It means that the first film released by our company is expected to earn more than 2 million US dollars in the global box office, and we will make a lot of money!"

"Of course! I have worked in Hollywood for more than 10 years, and this is the highest-grossing movie I have ever made. Cheng, you are my good boss and my lucky star." Bob praised Cheng Yu'an fiercely.

"Okok, Bob, after I finish handling domestic affairs, I will fly to the United States. I will pay the company a bonus on the spot, and I will give you a promotion and a salary increase."

"Thank you, Boss."

The two hung up the phone, Cheng Yu'an washed up, went out, and started the promotion of the last few days.

Everyone set off from Sichuan Province, went north all the way, and finally returned to the capital.

　I recommend the new book "2002: The Road to the Richest Man" by my brother Yu Yin. The newcomers hug each other to keep warm.
