I'm not just a director

Chapter 233
"Inception" casting started.

This is another big news in the film and television industry after the Chinese New Year.

The reason why it is such a sensation is that its director is Jiang Pei'an.

Most of the protagonists have already been decided, these people Jiang Pei'an contacted them privately years ago.

And the current casts are basically supporting roles that don't have many roles in the movie.

Of course, there are also cases where the candidate actors in the protagonist group have not been finalized due to schedule or various reasons.

Jiang Pei'an plans to use this casting to see if there are any good seedlings.

Although they are currently auditioning for some supporting roles, but no matter what, this is Jiang Pei'an's play!

The title of the first commercial film in China to exceed [-] million is too attractive. Even if you play some supporting roles in this film, it is still a chance to become famous.

Don't you see, Gao Yuanyuan and Zeng Li were all young actors who were not well-known in the entertainment circle before.

The results of it?
Now the second daughter can be said to be the most popular female star in the entertainment industry, and her value has soared to the domestic first-line actress.

She is even more famous than some first-line actresses in Hong Kong and Taiwan. After all, not everyone has the title of Ann girl.

Therefore, the audition scene of "Inception" was very grand that day, and the queue was very long.

With excitement and nervousness on their faces, everyone was muttering words, obviously preparing for the next interview.

Among them, there was a boy wearing a black padded jacket who kept his body size standing in the crowd and kept looking at the team in front of him.

The boy was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and compared to the handsome men and women standing beside him, he looked rather unattractive.

Especially when he laughs, he is even more honest and silly.

"When does this have to be scheduled? Baoqiang, you hold a seat for me, and I'll go smoke a cigarette."

A person next to the boy said anxiously.

"Come on, go, I'll line up for you."

When the originally rustic boy opened his mouth, his mouth was full of dialect accents.

Coupled with the patched black padded jacket on his body, it made him look very rustic.

Such looks and temperament still want to be an actor?
The people around looked at him, a little guilty in their hearts.

In fact, the boy not only became an actor, but also a starring role.

This person is the actor who worked with director Li Yang last year, Wang Baoqiang.

Wang Baoqiang, who just climbed up from a small private coal mine last year, usually works in front of the Beijing Film Studio.

As a result, I was pulled over by my good friend today, that is, the man who went to smoke just now.

It is said that the next movie of the international director Jiang Pei'an is casting, so let him accompany him to try out the film to try his luck.

After Bao Qiang performed "Blind Well" last year, he thought he would hold his thighs, and he would be able to do some filming next time.

As a result, after director Li Yang finished filming "Blind Well", he plunged into the editing room and couldn't come out.

The 2000 yuan paid for filming "Blind Well" was also sent back to his hometown for 1500 yuan, and he only had 500 yuan left.

He didn't even go back for the Chinese New Year this year. On New Year's Eve, he ate dumplings with a few fellow villagers, looking forward to 2002 while the fireworks outside the window.

Director Li Yang said that the film may not be released in the Mainland due to its sensitive subject matter, and he will go to Hong Kong Province to try his luck.

After receiving the news, Wang Baoqiang was taken aback for a moment, and then he was ecstatic.

Damn, it can still be screened in Hong Kong province. I don’t know if the idol Li Lianjie can see it...

At this time, Wang Baoqiang stood in the line and kept looking around, and people kept coming in from outside the audition venue.

Every now and then, bursts of cheers erupt from the crowd.

"Isn't that Xiaolongnu Xiaotaohong? She also came to audition?"

"Holy shit, who did I see, and he's here too!"

"This lineup looks a bit strong. Didn't you just choose supporting roles? Why did so many stars come to audition?"

There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and what was more, there was a sense of crisis.

These days, even supporting actors who say a few lines have stars to steal the show!

Wang Baoqiang stood on the spot and stared blankly at the stars who appeared one by one.

Although these people are far behind popular artists, most of them are also often active on the TV screen.

"It's too much competition."

Wang Baoqiang said something.

……

In the audition room, Jiang Pei'an and Gao Chengsheng sat together, and there were two assistant directors beside them.

They are Zhu Decheng and Lin Di'an respectively.

The former is the assistant director of "Born Out" and "The Mansion Gate".

The latter has participated in the production of films such as "The Matrix" and "Once Upon a Time" series.

Both of these two were recommended by China Film to the crew, and whoever goes out can play a role in the blockbuster.

Originally, Jiang Pei'an was very optimistic about Chang Xiaoyang, but he was held back by the "Hero" crew, and he might not be able to survive for a while.

Looking at the thick stack of documents on the table, Jiang Pei'an rubbed his temples and said helplessly:
"Nothing particularly brilliant."

Zhu Decheng, who is over half a century old, said with a smile:
"Director, there are still a lot of auditions waiting, let's choose."

"That's right, let's take a look again. If it doesn't work, we can only invite."

Jiang Pei'an said.

Lin Di'an nodded aside, looked up at the long queue outside, and said with a smile:
"From yesterday to now, we have interviewed so many actors, some of whom are well-known.

They are actually willing to play some supporting roles in the movie, even guest appearances in friendship, this is Director Jiang's appeal. "

"For famous artists, the remuneration of supporting roles is far less than their cost of a commercial performance.

In their eyes, the salary is not important, but whether they can appear on screen smoothly, especially in the works of famous directors, is the most important thing. "

Zhu Decheng, who is over half a century old, spoke up.

Jiang Pei'an smiled, he knew exactly what the actors were thinking.

In the past few days, he has privately received many calls from film and television companies and agents, most of whom recommend their own artists straight to the point.

Starring for free, just give a few shots.

There are even some benefactors behind female stars who want to use money to clear the way.

If Jiang Pei'an agrees, "Inception" will basically be able to withdraw part of the funds without having to be released.

For this move, Jiang Peiping refused all of them.

What he wants are actors who pass the audition, not a pit fee.

The three rested for a while, Jiang Pei'an said lightly:

"Let's continue."

"Next person!"

Following Jiang Pei'an's words, a cautious girl walked in.

When she walked in, the three of them only felt their eyes light up.

This is a girl with a pure and sweet appearance. Although she is a bit reserved, the smile on her face makes people feel like a spring breeze.

Moreover, she has snow-like skin, a tall figure, and a very good proportion.

With a height of nearly 1.7 meters, it is not inferior to some models.

As soon as she came in, Zhu Decheng and Lin Di'an looked at each other and smiled.

Another famous artist.

"Hi three directors, my name is Zuo Xiaoqing, I graduated from Nortel..."

　In the process of sorting out the follow-up outline, what was owed yesterday will be made up tomorrow
