I become a big star after I sleep

Chapter 74 Casting (1)

News of the open casting of Qin Muchu's TV series, the highest box office record holder for Chinese-language movies, has spread throughout the entertainment industry.

Character scripts are distributed by Huayi to various entertainment companies.

According to the news released by Huayi Company, the total investment of this TV series is 500 million.

The amount of investment in a TV series was not too much in 2006, but it was by no means low.

But then, the news that Huayi continued to release surprised everyone.

TV dramas are defined as idol dramas with a length of about 20 episodes.

The production cost of one episode is as high as more than 100 million!
"Fuck, crazy? More than 100 million for one episode? How the hell is it only 20 episodes, how can this pay back the cost?"

Wang Zhonglei was in the office, listening to the secretary's report, and threw out the contract that was being signed.

The details of this TV series were discussed by his brother yesterday with Qin Muchu. After he was kicked out, he didn't even know the result of their discussion.

"Mr. Wang, our company only invested 1000 million..."

The secretary looked at Wang Zhonglei Ri with an angry face, and reminded him carefully.

Hearing that only 1000 million was invested, Wang Zhonglei became less angry:

"That's okay, my brother is still a little sensible, and knows how to cast less."

The secretary hesitated and stammered:
"I just heard Mr. Wang said in the office that Director Qin only gave him 1000 million shares. Seeing Mr. Wang's appearance, it seems quite regrettable..."

……

"Idol drama? The big director who made a movie turned back to make an idol drama? What do you think?"

I don't know how many people in the circle have asked such questions.

It was the first time they had seen this kind of reverse operation.

Not only do movies and TV have chains of contempt, but there are also chains of contempt within TV dramas.

It's just that compared to movies that look down on TV dramas without controversy, the chain of contempt inside TV dramas is not clear.

Your historical dramas look down on me?

I still look down on you in spy war dramas!

I also dissatisfied with the business drama in the workplace!

What happened to family ethics and urban romance dramas?

When everyone despised each other and quarreled, the idol drama in the corner huddled up and trembled.

Idol dramas are recognized as "three no products" with "no acting skills, no connotation, and no depth".

Idol drama, idol drama, as the name suggests, the focus of this drama is on "idol".

A great director like Qin Muchu, who has achieved great achievements, went to shoot an idol drama?

Although "The Gift of Room No. [-]" is not a literary film, it is definitely not a brainless popcorn movie.

"Young people are capricious."

Modu, President Tang Ren's office.

Cai Yinong's round and firm thighs overlapped each other, after reading the script sent by Hua Yi.

The script is not complete, only the outline of the story and a few scenes with a few characters.

If nothing else, Cai Yinong read the synopsis.

Handsome aliens fall in love with female stars, this idea is very clever, it can arouse the desire of ignorant girls to watch.

"If a very handsome alien fell in love with you, and he has money and superpowers to protect you, would you fall in love with him?"

Cai Yinong asked the female assistant in her 20s standing beside her.

The female assistant blushed, and felt a little embarrassed after thinking about it:
"Mr. Cai, who can stand up to this?"

Seeing the assistant's nympho, Cai Yinong strengthened his inner thoughts.

"Send the script to the artists in the company, and everyone who is of the right age will try it."

She said to the female assistant, and then put the matter behind her.

The company is filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" this year. The main artists Hu Ge and Liu Shishi have all gone to shoot, and the rest of the artists are not important.

She also just wanted to try her luck.

The same thing is happening at various entertainment companies.

……

Siheyuan.

Qin Muchu flipped through the list of audition actors and resumes sent by Huayi.

According to his requirements for male and female protagonists, there are many optional actors between the ages of 20 and 30.

Since it's an idol drama, some well-known actors don't have to think about it.

But some young actors are very willing.

At their age, they don't make idol dramas or anything.

Moreover, it was a TV series filmed by a famous movie director, and the cost of a single episode was over one million, which could already be called a big production.

If Qin Muchu takes a fancy to him and starred in his next movie, wouldn't he be alive?

How did Yang Mi become so popular during this period of time?

Everyone wants to be "Yang Mi No. [-]" and "Miss Chu".

That's right, the actress who became famous because of Qin Muchu's movies, like Lao Mouzi's "Mou Girl", has already been dubbed "Chu Girl".

Yang Mi is the number one disciple sitting down, the first generation of "Chu Girl".

However, this name is temporarily controversial, mainly due to whether it is better to use "Miss Qin" or "Miss Chu"...

Qin Muchu saw many familiar names and photos in the actor's resume.

"Sha Yi?"

Qin Muchu looked at the photo of Sha Yi in his resume. He was white and clean, and he could be called a fresh meat.

But the memory of the previous life is too clear, thinking that if he is chosen as the hero, Sha Yi will become a greasy uncle of "Yingzi, open the door, it's Daddy" more than ten years later.

At that time, if you look back and want to relive the classics again, will the fans of "Star You" still be able to watch it?

"You're a good actor, but we're not the right fit."

Qin Muchu shuddered, and put Sha Yi's script aside.

Dou Minjun, an alien who has lived for hundreds of years, is a little arrogant in his aloofness, and a little jealous after falling in love.

Characters are not complicated.

In fact, the male protagonist he prefers is Hu Ge.

He is handsome enough, although his acting skills are average, but he can be trained.

However, Qin Muchu searched through the submitted resumes, but couldn't find Hu Ge.

Then we can only let it go.

After reading the resume for a long time, Qin Muchu rubbed his eyes.

In terms of appearance alone, there are many actors who are suitable for Do Minjun, and there is no shortage of handsome actors in Tianchao.

But Shuaizhong has a kind of youthful feeling, such actors are rare.

After all, they are basically 25 or [-] years old, and they can't play the youthful feeling that Qin Muchu wants.

"Forget it, let's see the heroine first."

Qin Muchu picked up another stack of resumes.

He didn't decide on a male and female lead just by looking at their resumes, he just had a general understanding of the actors who came to audition and preliminarily selected a batch.

Watch it when you really decide to still get an audition.

When it comes to actresses, there are many people who meet the requirements.

A female star plays a female star, isn't that a handhold?

If you want to play Qian Songyi's savage, uneducated, and intrigue with colleagues, don't be too simple. When Qin Muchu asks the heroine to restrain herself, then it will be suitable for Qian Songyi herself.

In fact, Qian Songyi originally wanted Yang Mi to act, because he knew that this drama would be very popular.

Back then, "Kim Soo Hyun" and "Jeon Ji Hyun" who played Do Min Joon and Cheon Song Yi were extremely well-known in China.

But Yang Mi is very busy recently, she called her earlier and was answered by her assistant, Qin Muchu asked her to call back, but Qin Muchu didn't hear her when she called back.

Although Yang Mi answered the call back, her voice was extremely tired, and she complained to Qin Muchu about how busy she was, not touching the ground every day, and the itinerary was scheduled until next year.

While talking, he fell asleep.

Also snoring.

Qin Muchu felt sorry for her, so he didn't wake her up, but silently turned on the recording function to record her cry.

After that, there was no mention of letting her star in "Star You".

In line with the idea of ​​not letting the fat and water flow to outsiders, he wanted to contact his "daughter" Liu Xiqian to play the role.

But when I think of the route given by my mother, it is called "high-end", and I guess I don't like TV dramas.

But Qin Muchu still called Liu Xiqian to ask.

Sure enough, Liu Xiqian said that her mother had arranged a cooperation for herself in the second half of the year, and there was no schedule.

So Qin Muchu asked her to call him "Dad" and hung up the phone.

Of course, Liu Xiqian didn't yell, and even called him "Shabi".

Madeleine, it's a bad idea!

How can a fairy say dirty words!
"It seems that this fat water will be cheap to outsiders after all, and I will envy you to death!"

Qin Muchu flipped through the resumes of the actresses while muttering.

Being "rejected" by two friends in a row, he doesn't want to lose face.

"Li Xiaolu? No, I will do my hair in the future."

"Ma Su? No way, she is looking for a hairdresser to do hair."

"Tang Yan? Are you going to Hong Kong Island at this time? Let's make a choice."

"Zhao Liying? This is Huayi's, and it's also an option."

"This, um, alternative..."

"Optional..."

Flipping through the pages, Qin Muchu found quite a few leading actresses who initially met the requirements.

Turning to the last resume, his eyes lit up:
"Zeng Li?"
