China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 320 318. Audition begins

Lin Zhiying was depressed. At the Huayi Brothers Company in Yanjing, the second boss Wang Zhonglei was equally annoyed.

"Last time Mango TV asked me for Thief Cao's number. It turned out that the two families were planning to reconcile. Is Mango TV going to betray the camp?"

Feiyu Entertainment's artists are on the fast book, so this means that some people in the camp against Feiyu are starting to rebel.

"No, this is not the way to go."

In terms of movies, it has completely failed, and in terms of TV series, it has also lost several games. Now Feiyu Entertainment has a trend that it cannot control, which puts Huayi under a lot of pressure.

Although he is very confident in the three TV series projects launched this year, Feiyu is not idle either.

Let's not talk about the popularity of "Flower Thousand Bones" and "Balala Little Demon Fairy" for the time being. Now their drama "Dream of Red Mansions" has become a big topic in the industry and is quite popular.

"Why is that?"

Sitting on the sofa, Wang Zhonglei kept thinking about this issue.

"Why? It's not because he has money!"

Wang Zhongjun, who had been silent for a long time, finally revealed the mystery: "He has capital support and cannot be easily dealt with unless he makes mistakes."

Wang Zhonglei said irritably: "Brother, what do you think we should do? Mango Channel fell in love with him. We will cooperate with him on several projects in the future to let Mango Channel taste the sweetness. By then, our artists will not be able to get into fast books." It’s easier.”

"Can I not know this? I'm also trying to figure it out!"

Wang Zhongjun is calmer and calmer than his younger brother, but he is no less stressed than his younger brother.

After a while, he said: "To deal with Cao Yu, the only way is to continue to raise funds and strive to go public within two or three years. Once we have the money, everything will be easier."

"Are you still looking for Ma Yun?"

"Not only are we looking for Ma Yun, but we also want to recruit some of the company's artists to become shareholders. In addition, we are looking for some other investment companies."

"Remember, what else?"

Wang Zhonglei knew that this was not enough.

"Continue to discover good scripts and good actors. This is the foundation for the development of entertainment companies. This guy Cao Yu has done a good job in this regard."

"Then should we learn from him? Build a training system ourselves?"

"No, it's a waste of money. So many schools in Yanjing have trained us, so just sign."

"But cultivating actors and promoting them requires resources."

"As I said just now, listing is the key! Capital is the key! If Cao Yu didn't have Penguin or Jingdong behind him, how dare he do this?"

Wang Zhongjun stood up, looked at the busy traffic in Yanjing, and spoke in a deep voice the key to suppressing Feiyu's development.

After finishing speaking, he added: "I heard that Feiyu's audition shocked almost half of the entertainment industry. I don't know what it's like now."

Just when Huayi was thinking about how to go public as soon as possible, Cao Yu also came to Xiangshan.

Although the film and television city has not yet been completely completed, the main building and other buildings have been completed, and some later work is also being handled at this time. According to the plan, the park will be open to welcome guests during the National Day.

But when Cao Yu arrived at the film and television city, he was almost shocked by the sight in front of him.

The film and television city, which originally had only a few workers, was now filled with luxury cars. People were coming and going around the entire park, which looked extremely lively.

Even in the surrounding towns, business is much more prosperous than before, and the hotels are completely full.

"what 's wrong?"

Cao Yu found the person in charge here and learned about the situation, only to find out that those who came to the film and television city this time were not only the more than 200 prospective actors who were going to audition, but also many other stars and their agents.

These people heard that Feiyu was going to film "Dream of Red Mansions" and rushed over to see if they could get a role.

Everyone knows that Feiyu's project is said to require an investment of several hundred million. Who wouldn't be tempted?

In addition, there are a large number of reporters from media, entertainment websites, and entertainment videos.

Just because of this audition, this small town that was not famous at first is now flooded with thousands of people. It would be strange if it is not lively.

"Looking at this situation, if the park is officially opened in the future, there will definitely be a lot of tourists, film crews, etc. There are not only few hotels around, but also low grades. Do I suggest Shu Xue build a five-star resort here? ?”

With this idea, Cao Yu immediately called Yang Shuxue and told him his plan.

Yang Shuxue also thought this was a good idea and said she would book a flight immediately.

"In the future, we will be able to combine travel, leisure and filming, haha, not bad."

After walking around the film and television city, all the audition venues have been set up, including dressing rooms, preparation rooms, rest rooms, etc.

Early the next morning, Yang Shuxue came to Xiangshan.

Xiangshan Film and Television City is a key investment project in Xiangshan, and local leaders attach great importance to it. This is also their political achievement.

They heard that the famous Huanyu Real Estate and Feiyu Entertainment were going to build a luxury resort next to the film and television, and they immediately expressed their full support.There is a special room for Cao Yu in the film and television city.

In the room, Yang Shuxue and Cao Yu were lying together and talking intimately.

"Shu Xue, when you design the resort, remember to give me a better house."

"Is that what you need to say?"

"Would you like to stay and watch our actors audition?"

"There is no time. The second phase of your film and television city is about to be completed. I have to go back quickly and take advantage of the holidays to prepare the planning document and try to get the land as soon as possible and start construction as soon as possible so that it can be put into business before May Day next year. "

"I just can't bear to leave you."

"Me too, but there's nothing I can do about it. Come back soon."

Yang Shuxue also has a fiery temperament in business. Since she has taken a fancy to this resort project, she must start it as soon as possible.

After sending Yang Shuxue away, Cao Yu waited for the audition to officially start the next day.

Before 08, May Day was still one of the long holidays and was considered an important golden week for tourism.

In the Xiangshan Film and Television City, a small courtyard called Furong Yaju, which is full of Jiangnan charm, is extremely lively.

Under the shade of the trees in the small courtyard, there is a row of tables, and eight judges are sitting in front of the table. Five of them are famous red scholars. An old man with gray temples is the director of the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" Wang Fulin.

Next to the old man is Hu Mei, a famous Chinese director, who may also be the chief director of this play.

The last person is Cao Yu, the producer and producer of "A Dream of Red Mansions" and the boss of Feiyu Entertainment.

There is a gentle breeze in the small courtyard, the trees are shady, and the white magnolia flowers blooming around it make the courtyard very elegant.

Around the courtyard, reporters had their guns and cannons set up, waiting to get first-hand news so they could grab the headlines.

The time had just reached eight o'clock, and a few faint sounds of guzheng could be heard from the speakers around the courtyard.

"One is a fairy from Langyuan, and the other is a flawless jade. If there is no chance of romance, I will meet him again in this life. If there is chance of romance, how can my heart become empty in the end."

As the music played, a woman came out with a microphone.

It was actually Chen Li, the original singer of the song "Wang Ning Mei".

This was what Cao Yu came up with when planning this audition, and it can also be regarded as a tribute to the classic.

Director Wang Fulin and several red scholars heard this song that they had heard countless times here again, and their eyes also glowed.

It has been 20 years, and they, who were once so high-spirited, now have gray hair.

Although Chen Li is not a professional singer, she used her unique voice to interpret the connotation of this song perfectly. The memorable "singing and three sighing" also conveyed a different kind of flavor.

When singing the line "I wonder how many teardrops can be in my eyes", the breeze brought a few petals and fell at Chen Li's feet, which made people feel like "all the fragrances are gone after three springs".

In the faint and long "Ah" sound, the song slowly ended.

Everyone slowly came out of the unforgettable singing, and they also felt that Feiyu Entertainment valued this audition.

"Thank you Teacher Chen Li for your wonderful singing, thank you!"

At this time, Shen Lanlan, dressed in Hanfu, walked out from the side with a microphone. In this audition, she guest-starred as the host.

"Good morning to all teachers, friends from the media, and contestants who have come from afar."

Shen Lanlan is now more mature and has always been generous to her, so she has no problem being the host.

She bowed to everyone, and then continued: "The novel "A Dream of Red Mansions" is one of my four great Chinese masterpieces, and it is also the best novel. Our Mr. Cao Yu of Feiyu Entertainment has always wanted to This classic comes back to the screen."

"But he also knew that there was Zhuyu ahead of him, so he attached great importance to this drama, so he did not hesitate to invite several teachers to conduct this audition."

"Our audition this time is conducted in the order of appearance in the original work."

After an opening remarks, she finally announced: "We have invited contestant No. [-]. The role he wants to audition for is: Xiang Ling."

The sound of the guzheng sounded again, and a girl of seventeen or eighteen walked lightly into the yard.

The girl wore a red floral cross-collar long coat and a white pleated skirt. She had a pitifully pretty face with a dot of rouge the size of a grain of rice between her eyebrows.

"Wow, this girl just auditioned for Xiangling? Isn't it such a waste?"

"Yes, she is so beautiful. Why is she playing Xiang Ling? She should play a more important role."

"Yes, look at her, her movements are elegant and very ancient. I think she can play Baochai."

"Although it is a waste, this girl has a slightly bitter look, which is quite similar to Xiang Ling's fate."

Just when everyone was amazed by the first contestant to appear, the girl made blessings to several judges, and then introduced herself: "Hello teachers, my name is Master Liu."
