Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 251 Confirmed to star in "Latent", it turns out she was the heroine!
May 2st, morning.

Ziyu Villa, Cao Mansion.

Spending Valentine's Day with Zeng Li at home, Cao Jun didn't go anywhere, just recuperated at home, and read the script of "Latent" by the way.

In his previous life, Cao Jun only knew that "Latent" was a classic and had a high ratings, it was a phenomenal TV show.

In Cao Jun's impression, there is no movie that has won all three awards, but the spy war drama "Latent" won three awards in a row.

Moreover, "Latent" surpassed popular dramas such as "My Leader, My Team" in the same period, and became the TV series that most resonated with the audience.

Of course, Cao Jun's understanding of "Latent" is nothing more than that, and he doesn't have a deeper understanding.

When "Latent" was broadcast, Cao Jun didn't even watch an episode of the TV series because he didn't like Yao Dazui.

After reading the script of "Latent", Cao Jun could finally understand that this script mainly tells the story of Yu Zecheng, a member of the Intelligence Department of the Army Headquarters of the National Famous Party in early 1945, who abandoned the secret and became an underground blocker lurking in the Military Command Office.

However, "Latent" was originally just a short story with only more than [-] words, which is only enough for one episode of the story.

Director Jiang Wei was very interested in the novel after reading it, so he consulted a large amount of information and spent ten months adapting the novel into a 40-word script.

After reading the script, Long Yi, the author of the original book, praised it greatly: "Jiang Wei has exerted great creativity to make this story a really good one."

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Wei is the director of dramas such as "Behind the Flash" and "Don't Talk to Strangers", and has rich creative experience.

He didn't want to find Cao Jun. The ideal male and female protagonists in his heart were Xin Baiqing and Zhu Yuanyuan. When he wrote the script, he wrote it according to the feelings of these two people.

Unfortunately, a few months ago, Zhu Yuanyuan was pregnant. After she read the script carefully, she found that there were a lot of action scenes in it. She was worried that it would be bad for the fetus in her womb, so she reluctantly resigned from the play. To take care of his wife, he had to resign.

After Jiang Wei's first choice fell through, he found Wang Qianyuan again. Wang Qianyuan is also a capable actor, and he is very low-key. After reading the script, Wang Qianyuan liked it very much and agreed immediately.

At this time, there was still more than a month left for filming. Wang Qianyuan took advantage of this gap to accept the film "The Piano of Steel", thinking to himself, if he kept up with the schedule, the film could be produced.

Unexpectedly, when this film was filmed for a month, there was no funding, and here "Latent" is about to start filming.

After thinking about it, Wang Qianyuan made a phone call to Jiang Wei: "I'm sorry, director, I can't go to your side because the filming of this scene is not finished."

Jiang Wei tried his best to persuade him to stay: "There is no more filming over there, what are you waiting for?"

Wang Qianyuan said: "I grew up in the Northeast, and I have seen the prosperity and desolation of workers with my own eyes. I don't care about this drama. Even if it doesn't show in the future, I will treasure it for myself."

Jiang Wei had no choice but to find Cao Jun.

Originally, Jiang Wei didn't want to find Cao Jun, because he thought he was a big star, expensive and difficult to hire, and he was recommended to him by others, so he wanted to try his luck.

For Jiang Wei to come to kiss, Cao Jun is regarded as one of the candidates for the male lead, it is really just a chance.

Because Jiang Wei is really not sure whether a big star like Cao Jun has time and enough schedule to film the movie "Latent".

After getting the script of "Latent", Cao Jun felt very excited without even reading the content of the script. He also said to Jiang Wei: "If the effect of this drama is not good, it is the actor's problem. Talk to the director and screenwriter. It doesn't matter."

February 2, 16pm.

In order to win this role, Cao Jun specially invited Jiang Wei to have a meal. Hearing that Jiang Wei likes seafood, Cao Jun specially ordered a seafood feast.

Cao Jun also specially prepared two bottles of Moutai and two Chinese cigarettes for Jiang Wei.

At the banquet, Jiang Wei raised his concerns: "Cao Jun, I know you are a big celebrity, and I heard that your schedule is very tight and short, so I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Cao Jun: "Director, that's not a problem. For such a good film, you don't have to worry about my schedule. You can shoot as long as you want."

Cao Jun also recommended Xiao Song Jia to Jiang Wei, Jiang Wei asked why, Cao Jun said calmly: "Actually, I also follow Xiao Song Jia, it's just a kind of intuition."

In fact, when he participated in the premiere of "Love Call Transfer" last year, Cao Jun met Xiao Song Jia at the premiere.

But until now, Cao Jun still remembers that the role played by little Song Jia in the movie "Love Call Transfer" is Luo Yanyan...

As for the roles played by several other female stars in the movie "Love Call Transfer", Cao Jun didn't pay much attention at the time, but he remembered that Xiao Song Jia's role was called Luo Yanyan.

This is also a very strange thing...

In addition to Song Jia, Cao Jun also recommended two actors, Zhang Songwen and Zhou Yiwei, to director Jiang Wei.

After Cao Jun had the idea of ​​finding Xiao Song Jia as the heroine, he called Xiao Song Jia immediately.

On the phone, after a few polite words, Cao Jun cut to the chase and said, "Song Jia, I saw a very good TV drama script called "Latent". I think you are very suitable for the heroine Wang Cuiping. Are you interested in working together?"

After listening to Cao Jun's call, Little Song Jia felt a little confused, because before that, she almost always acted as the second female lead and the third female lead, whether it was movies or TV dramas.

Now that a popular niche like Cao Jun took the initiative to invite her and recommended a play with a heroine to her, how could she not feel excited?
The current Cao Jun is a well-deserved favorite in the mainland TV industry. Whether it is a film and television company, a director, a filmmaker, or a host of actresses, they all want to cooperate with him.

Because everyone knows that Cao Jun is the guarantee of ratings. As long as it is a TV series played by Cao Jun, almost all of them can be sold at a good price, and they can also make popular actresses who cooperate with them by the way. s concern.

Thinking of this, Xiao Song Jia pretended to be calm and asked: "Really? What is this play about? Can you briefly describe it to me?"

Although Xiao Song Jia is not a popular actress, Xiao Song Jia, who was born in a major, also has requirements for scripts and performances, and not all bad plays will be accepted.

You know, as early as 2006, little Song Jia began to emerge with the movie "Curiosity Killed the Cat", and was nominated for Best Supporting Actress in the 26th Huaguo Film Golden Rooster Awards.

In the past 2007, Xiao Song Jia starred in the TV series "Crossing Guandong", which also received a lot of praise and attention.

Facing Xiao Song Jia's request, Cao Jun didn't bother, he was still talking to her patiently on the phone: "That's right, "Latent" is a spy war drama about..."

After listening to Cao Jun's patient explanation, little Song Jia was also moved, and began to have a strong interest in the play "Latent".

Xiao Song Jia resisted the excitement in her heart and asked uncertainly: "Can I ask you a question? Is it possible that I can act in this play as long as I want to act?"

Although Cao Jun was not sure whether director Jiang Wei would like to use Xiaojia, he still blushed and said to her, "It should be fine, I will help you fight for it."

Xiao Song Jia said gratefully: "Then thank you, if given the opportunity, I should be qualified for this role."

"That's fine, you wait for my good news."

"It's work."

The next day, Cao Jun made an appointment with the director Jiang Wei again, and recommended Xiao Song Jia to Jiang Wei again.

Jiang Wei was a little hesitant at first, because he didn't know Xiao Song Jia well, and he couldn't resist Cao Jun's soft-hearted attitude, so he started to pay attention to Xiao Song Jia, an actress.

In fact, Jiang Wei has always wanted to find a pungent and capable woman to play this role. After watching Xiao Song Jia's play, he finally decided to take a gamble and cast her as the lead actress in "Latent".

As for the male number one in "Latent", Jiang Wei has long been interested in Cao Jun, and will no longer be the second choice.
