Chapter 372 Candidate for White Snake

To be honest, Director Shang was really confused about the musical TV series Ye Luo mentioned.

After working as a director for so many years, I have never heard of a TV series of this type!

Therefore, when Ye Luo took out the script, Director Shang was both curious and skeptical.

""Legend of White Snake"?"

Shang Xuejun frowned slightly, he didn't even understand the name.

Why is it called "new"?
  Is there still an old version of the Legend of White Snake?

Shang Xuejun didn't understand much, and Ye Luo didn't explain it either.

"Director Shang, take a quick look at it first," Ye Luo said.

Originally, reading a script was not something I could rush. However, now that Ye Luo has spoken, Shang Xuejun can only browse quickly.

But after watching a few episodes, Shang Xuejun immediately understood.

Musical TV series, this is what it means!

The lines in the script Ye Luo gave him were interspersed with a lot of music and singing!

"This……"

Shang Xuejun was a little dumbfounded, "Director Ye, can this, this method work?"

Shang Xuejun feels that he understands the concept of musical TV series. But is it really possible to do this in a TV series?

Will the audience accept this when they start singing even if they don't agree with each other?
  He felt that Ye Luo's idea was too bold.

"Who knows whether it will work or not?" Ye Luo said nonchalantly, "Anyway, I have to give it a try." Filming a TV series is imperative, and this is what Ye Luo has planned for a long time.

I want to start filming on a music channel, so there is no other choice except this "The Legend of White Snake".

Ye Luo also has other works in his hands, many of which are safer and easier to achieve results than "The Legend of White Snake". However, those works are not available on music channels.

That's a TV show!
  It has nothing to do with music channels.

However, this "The New Legend of White Snake" is different.

Ye Luo said it was a musical TV series, which makes sense.

It has never appeared on this blue star. In Ye Luo's view, this is the result of the perfect fusion of music and TV series.

Filming such works on their channel can be regarded as exploration and experimentation, and no one can fault it.

"Director Shang, first study the script carefully and understand it thoroughly. Then you can start building the crew."

Ye Luo said that he would study the script with him, which was just a polite gesture. It was impossible for him to modify it. Shang Xuejun also knew that he understood his position very well. Seeing that Ye Luo had already made up his mind, Shang Xuejun said nothing more.

Since he chose to hug Ye Luo's thigh, all he could do was follow Ye Luo all the way to the end.

"Okay, Director Ye, there is nothing wrong with the crew." Shang Xuejun said, "When we were filming "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" before, the crew was all here and can be used directly. However, as for the actors..." He looked at Leaves fall.

Ye Luo said: "Director Shang, you are more experienced than me in this area, so I will take the lead. If you think you are suitable, try to make an appointment. If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me and I will solve them."

"Okay, Director Ye."

Seeing that Ye Luo had given him such great power, Shang Xuejun straightened up.

This is an initial investment of [-] million!
  Moreover, it is very likely that subsequent music channels will continue to inject capital.

This is definitely the largest production in the entire TV series industry.

It must be a lie if Shang Xuejun is not excited about having the honor of directing such a work.

……

Hunan TV.

Although "Da Qin" ends hastily, it is only the end of the first part.

This is also what they announced to the outside world. The first part of "Da Qin" has been completed and the second part will be released soon. They promised that it will definitely be the original cast of the first part and will never make the audience wait too long.

Although Hunan Satellite TV and director Zhang Jiahui were unhappy this time due to quality problems in the follow-up filming of "Da Qin", the two did not part ways because of this matter.

On the contrary, Hunan Satellite TV continued to invest in Director Zhang for the filming of the second part of "Da Qin".

Director Zhang and the actors also started filming the second part without stopping.

"Director Qian, don't worry, we have top-notch screenwriters and actors, and this second part will definitely be safe." Director Zhang also vowed: "Don't look at the popularity of TV drama channels now, but wait until they " "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is over, what else can they use to compete with the second part of our "Da Qin"? "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" does not have a second part."

Although he suffered a big loss in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Director Zhang is now full of confidence.

Director Qian's expression didn't change much, "Director Zhang, the investment in the station is very large this time, and we have high hopes for this "Da Qin Zong Heng". Director Zhang, we must finish filming this time before talking about the broadcast. Something happened."

"Don't worry, I know it well." Director Zhang also realized that he was a little too eager last time, "I will be fully prepared this time."

With Director Zhang's guarantee, Director Qian felt more at ease. Director Zhang's talent is obvious to all, and Director Qian also believes that he can achieve greater success.

What's more, the current TV drama market is in a slump. Apart from "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there are no other hit works. After "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is completed, the market will fall into an empty state again. At this time, their "The Rise of the Qin Dynasty" can just make up for the audience's drama shortage, and it will definitely achieve great success!
  Hunan Satellite TV and Director Zhang are well prepared this time and are full of confidence.

……

With the establishment of the "Legend of White Snake" crew, news has quietly spread in the industry.

In fact, this cannot be hidden.

As early as when Zhuge Qinghui applied to the station for filming and broadcasting qualifications, the news had already spread within China Television.

The music channel is going to enter the TV drama industry!

No matter from which aspect, this is undoubtedly exciting news.

"They are getting more and more outrageous."

"What does the music channel want to do? If you don't do music well, why do you want to start a TV series again?"

"Didn't we do well on the music charts before? Then we turned around and started working on TV series? What did Director Zhuge and the others think?"

"It's not good news."

"Are you just going to let them do this nonsense?"

"If they were all messing around like music channels, wouldn't our station be in chaos? I think it's really not good for them to do this."

"That's right, today the music channel dares to make a TV series, but tomorrow they will also broadcast cartoons? Then why separate channels? We might as well just do it alone!"

"Can the TV drama channel tolerate it?"

"Haha, our TV drama channel and Director Ye are in the honeymoon period. I'm not sure what kind of agreement they have reached."

"Stop talking about it, this is a matter of principle. How can a music channel have an agreement with Director Ye in this regard? You know, the TV drama industry is the home base of TV drama channels. Can they allow other channels to dig into their roots? Let's see, Sooner or later there will be a fuss."

There are a lot of discussions among various channels within China Television, and everyone doesn’t know much about it. I just heard that the music channel is going to make a TV series. Almost all channels are opposed to this move.

In everyone's opinion, music channels are becoming more and more outrageous. In the past, it was barely possible to do music variety shows. What is it like to invest in TV series now?

Almost all channels have turned their attention to the TV drama channel and want to see how the TV drama channel will react at this time.

However, what surprised everyone was that from the beginning to the end, there was no movement at all on the TV drama channel!

No response at all!
  "What's going on?" Deputy Director Lin of the variety show channel was confused. "The TV drama channel doesn't care about this kind of thing? Are they cowardly or something?"

Not only him, but everyone else was also full of greetings.

But in fact, the TV drama channels at this time are also suffering.

Others don't know, but Zhao Hongye already knows very well what the name of the music channel is.

Musical TV series!

It has been approved by Taiwan!
  What can she do? "Director Ye, alas..."

At this time, Zhao Hongye was sighing in her office. She was really powerless in this matter. She has already called Ye Luo countless times, but Ye Luo is determined, what can she do?

To be honest, at this time she finally understood the original variety show channel.

Ye Luo is so disgusting!
  No wonder the variety show channel has been trying to kill him.

Now Zhao Hongye has the urge to kill him!
  "I hope the scene you film is exactly what you said, a music-type scene." Zhao Hongye's face was expressionless, and he was holding back a fire in his heart. Once the drama on the music channel is different from what is said now, she will never estimate Ye Luo's face and must go to the station to ask for an explanation!
  Musical TV series?

Ha ha!

Zhao Hongye would like to take a closer look at what kind of tricks the music channel can bring to the TV series!
  ……

It can be said that the entire China Television, and even the entire TV station field, are discussing this matter.

When Hunan TV and Director Zhang heard the news, everyone was stunned. No one expected that Ye Luo could be so tormented.

"Musical TV series? What nonsense?" Director Zhang dismissed this. "Ye Luo must have become popular after watching "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which made him feel itchy. How can there be any musical TV series? It sounds high-sounding. It’s just a reason.”

Director Qian frowned at the side, "Whether it's for reasons or not, the music channel is coming for real this time." Regarding Ye Luo, Director Qian was a little worried, "Our "The Rise of Great Qin" will not have to compete with them again. Isn’t it about the music channel drama?”

Director Zhang was very dissatisfied with Director Qian's attitude, "So what if we bump into each other? We need to avenge our shame!"

Director Zhang is confident in himself. He feels that the last time he lost to "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was purely because of his carelessness.

Director Qian didn't say anything, but his face didn't look very good. Seeing this, Director Zhang said again: "There is a high probability that we will not hit it. They have just established the project, and we have already started the project..."

"Well, it's best if we don't bump into each other." Director Qian muttered: "I always feel that Ye Luo is a bit evil." Not only the TV series, but also the variety shows of their Hunan channel have been reviewed by Ye Luo several times. .

……

While there was a lot of discussion in the industry, director Shang Xuejun also took action. After he assembled the crew, he immediately started looking for actors.

Bai Suzhen.

Xiaoqing.

Xu Xian.

Fahai.

Shang Xuejun selected the main characters one by one and reported to Ye Luo at the same time.

Although Ye Luo said that he should make the decision by himself, Shang Xuejun was very clear-headed and the final decision-making power must be given to Ye Luo.

"Isn't this actor a little too good-looking? Director Shang, Bai Suzhen is a great beauty, and her looks must be good enough."

"This actress is quite beautiful, but she is a bit too charming and does not fit Bai Suzhen's dignified image."

"This won't work either. You can look for it again, Director Shang."

"No."

"Or not."

Other roles are easy to talk about, but Ye Luo has extremely strict requirements for the role of White Snake.

Not only is the appearance very good, but the actor's temperament, body posture, and even singing skills are all taken into consideration.

Moreover, there is an unspoken rule in Ye Luo's casting, that is, actors with problems in their private lives will not be used!

Some actors may have a good image in front of the public, but there are many rumors in the industry that the public is unaware of. For such an actor, Ye Luo has no use at all!
  Shang Xuejun searched one after another, and many well-known actresses in the industry took the initiative to interview. It can be said that there are many people who want to win the role of White Snake.

However, without exception, these people were all brushed off by Ye Luo.

There is always a question of one kind or another.

There is no one who perfectly fits the image of the white lady in Ye Luo's heart.

In this regard, Director Shang also gave a veiled suggestion, "Director Ye, this is how filming is. When we write scripts, we always do whatever works best for us. But in real life, there are few actors who can perfectly fit the role. After all, everyone He is a human being of flesh and blood, how can he compare with the characters in the script?"

In Shang Xuejun's opinion, there are a few first-line actresses who are very good, and they can be considered to be in line with the image of the White Snake.

She has good looks, good temperament, and her own acting and dialogue skills. Even if there are some flaws, they are within the acceptable range.

However, Ye Luo felt that it was not perfect.

In fact, Director Shang knew very well. He knew that it was because Ye Luo didn't know much about TV dramas, so he was so demanding. However, the business director did not dare to say this directly, he could only mean what he said.

However, Ye Luo didn't care about this. Since he chose to film a TV series, of course he had to do it perfectly.

Director Shang understands TV dramas, but he doesn’t quite understand Ye Luo.

Ye Luo decided to film a TV series. How much pressure was he under?
  How many people in the whole stage were staring at him?
  How many people inside and outside the industry are watching him?
  To be honest, Ye Luo didn't dare to be careless at all.

"Director Shang, you are looking for more. We don't have to find famous actors, as long as they fit the image." Ye Luo said, "The role of Bai Suzhen is really important. It is the soul of our drama. Even if it takes a little more time and energy, we must find the most suitable candidate.”

Seeing that Ye Luo was still strong, Shang Xuejun sighed secretly.

"Okay, Director Ye."

Shang Xuejun said again, "Director Ye, do you have any favorite candidates?" He really didn't know which way to push.

Ye Luo lit a cigarette, leaned on the chair, and said leisurely: "Actually, I do know a very suitable candidate." But at this point, Ye Luo sighed again, "It's just that she didn't She has acted, and I am worried that her acting skills are not up to par."

Shang Xuejun opened his eyes and said, "Who is it?" He was so curious. How many actresses have they interviewed these days? It can be said that they are all spoiled for choice, but none of them can satisfy Ye Luo.

Shang Xuejun is really curious, who can satisfy such a demanding Director Ye? He even showed a look of pity.

Ye Luo didn't show off, and said calmly: "Tang Rou."

"Who?"

Shang Xuejun's eyes widened immediately, "Tang Rou?"

He even suspected that he had heard wrong.

"Yes, Tang Rou." Ye Luo nodded.

Shang Xuejun, who was sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but take a breath after seeing Ye Luo's affirmative reply.

Tang Rou!

You really dare to think!

No wonder Ye Luo, who has always been demanding, was satisfied.

That feeling can be satisfying!

People want good looks and good temperament! Except for not being able to act, everything else is top-notch.

Not to mention playing the white lady, she is more than enough to play the role of a fairy!

But the problem is, she is a singer!
  And he’s the kind who never acts!

"Tang Tianhou definitely doesn't have a choice. It's a pity that she doesn't act." Shang Xuejun's focus is different from Ye Luo's. He muttered, "As for acting, it's actually easy to talk about. If there is someone on site to teach If so, this is really not a difficult task. But it’s a pity, who can invite Queen Tang..."

Shang Xuejun couldn't even think about Tang Rou. Although he also felt that Tang Rou really fit the description of the White Snake in the script, but what was the use of that?
  Empress Tang!
  Who can please Tang Queen?
  "Do you think acting skills are not important?" Ye Luo raised his eyebrows.

Director Shang shook his head, "Of course acting is important. But let's see how it compares. Moreover, acting can be taught."

"That's it." Ye Luo nodded thoughtfully.

"Director Ye, when it comes to choosing the White Snake, should I look like Queen Tang?"

Ye Luo nodded, "Okay." However, what Ye Luo was thinking was, if Shang Xuejun could really teach Tang Rou how to act, then why would he look for someone else to do it?
