The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 17

Talking about Tangren Film and Television, we cannot do without a key figure, Cai Yinong.

Cai Yinong settled in Hong Kong with her parents when she was a child. After graduating from university, she worked as a reporter and magazine editor.

In the 90s, Hong Kong's film and television industry was booming, so she had the idea of ​​switching careers to become a screenwriter.

But it is not so easy to change careers, she can only do film promotion, first enter the industry and then slowly look for opportunities.

In 93, she joined Hong Kong Island Super Entertainment Production Co., Ltd. as the director of the actor resources department, and began to contact casting work.

In the entertainment company, in order to understand what kind of actors should be used in a drama, she read novels, read scripts, went to the studio, and learned about every process and detail of filming.

During this period, she got to know many actors from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and mainland China, and also met director Li Guoli. After that, she took the initiative to take charge of the company's overseas distribution department.

After running a lot, he became a rare all-rounder in this circle.

In 97, the red-chip stocks were bullish, and an investor contributed capital and invited her to start a film and television company.

She happily went there, founded the film group, and served as the general manager. She said that she was the general manager, but she was actually a poor commander. She had no company name, logo, employees, or business.

She thought of a big name, China Entertainment, designed the logo herself, and lacked a director for filming, so she thought of Li Guoli first.

So with a phone call, Li Guoli, who was far away in Canada, was invited back to be the director.

But for some reason, the company's investors withdrew their capital in less than a year.

In 98, the 27-year-old Cai Yinong and Li Guoli moved to the mainland and signed Li Yapeng, Sun Li, Guan Zhilin and others to create Tangren Film and Television. At this time, the mainland film and television industry had just started.

Because Cai Yinong was in the Hong Kong circle in the early years, many network resources are not in the mainland, and the current audience still prefers Hong Kong and Taiwan actors.

In response to market demand, the TV dramas produced by the Tang Dynasty after the Tang Dynasty are all based on actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, supplemented by the mainland.

This was the case until the filming of Paladin.

Liu Yifei had gossiped to Lu Yuan that the hero of Immortal Sword was not originally Hu Cuan, and it was just an accident that Hu Cuan became the hero.

Tang Ren originally planned to invite Nicholas Tse, Lin Zhiying, and He Jiong, but they were all rejected.

In the end, I had no choice but to re-select a large range of roles.

It wasn't Li Xiaoyao that Hu Kan originally interviewed, but Jiang Ming, the great disciple of Shushan Mountain.

He is just a fledgling rookie, how can he be the leading male lead right away.

Just because one of the extras saw his handsome appearance and thought he was playing Li Xiaoyao, so he asked Hu Kan, are you playing Li Xiaoyao?
And this sentence happened to be heard by Yao Zhuangxian, the chief planner of the fairy sword game who was passing by. He thought Hu Jian was really the actor who played Li Xiaoyao, so he greeted Hu Jian.

Coincidentally, this matter reached the ears of director Li Guoli, and after hearing this, he decided to give Hu Kan a chance.

As a result, it was selected.

Good luck to Hu Kan!

This is the virtue of Tang people, Lu Yuan has no hope, and people don't think much of him at all.

The next day, eight in the morning.

Lu Yuan checked his phone and found that there were two missed calls, both from his father. At around 6 o'clock, he was too sleepy to hear, and sent a text message.

Just when I was about to call back, a call came in.

Looking at the notes, I don't talk about Ms. Li.

Um, fuck it.

"Hey, Mom, something is wrong!"

"Hey, son, is the filming over yet? When will Mom see you on TV?"

"The filming is over. Today, the film crew will have a wrap-up banquet. As for when it will be broadcast, I don't know. I will let you know as soon as I receive the news."

"Oh, the finale banquet, remember to have a few more drinks with senior, maybe he will think of you when there is a show in the future."

"I see, Mom."

"By the way, the tea leaves you sent home?"

"That's right, what's the matter."

"Angie White Tea?"

"Yes, is there any problem? I chose the tea leaves myself."

Lu Yuan wondered, is there a problem with the quality of the tea?
On the other end of the phone, my mother roared: "Okay, Lu Minghua, you old thing, you even said you bought it with your own money, lied to me that you paid on credit, and asked me to give you the money, my mother will never end with you today!"

Lu Yuan held his phone far away, his mother's voice and loudspeaker were wailing!
The old man is also true, if you lie, you will lie, and you don’t know how to call me first.

You can even send a text message.

Telephone?Short message?
broken!

Lu Yuan quickly clicked on the text message.

This is what was written in the text message, son, if your mother asks you if you have sent tea to your home, you must remember to say no, and don’t mention tea, you don’t know anything!
Uh, Dad, I'm to blame for this, you will forgive me, right? We are your own sons.

Lu Yuan silently prayed for his father in his heart.

"Hey, Mom, hang up first if you're busy over there."

Before Lu Yuan finished speaking, there was a beeping beeping sound from the phone.

It hangs pretty fast!
Wake up, the crew will hold a wrap-up banquet in the Commercial Building tonight.

But first you have to go to the bank.

All his remuneration for the film crew of Yue Wang Goujian has arrived in the account, which is exactly 5 yuan. In addition to the income he earned from doing group performances during the summer vacation, he has saved a total of about 10 yuan.

It looks like a lot, but when I think of Chen Baoguo making an episode as high as 15.

Well, there is still a long way to go.

……

China World Building, third floor.

When Lu Yuan arrived, the crowd was almost full.

Zhou Yang sat in his seat early and waited for a long time without seeing Lu Yuan. When he was worried that the other party had forgotten, he saw Lu Yuan walking in at the door.

She quickly stood up and waved her hands: "Lu Yuan, here it is!"

The seating arrangement of the wrap-up banquet is very interesting, fully reflecting the class in the show business circle.

Producers, directors, and leading actors sat at the same table, while other supporting actors and behind-the-scenes staff looked at the arrangement.

But Lu Yuan found that his position was actually at the table of the lead actor and the producer, so what could he do as a supporting role.

He hesitated to sit or not.

Chen Baoguo stood up, patted him on the shoulder, pressed him on the seat, and said with a smile: "Sit casually, we don't pay attention to these things, just have a meal."

What a carefree, what an entertainment industry!

The private room is quite big, with several tables set up, it is estimated that there are about a hundred people.

Producer Li Gongda and director Huang Jianzhong stood up and made some summaries, such as blah blah blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

"Teacher Tan, I respect you."

"Mr. Chen, you have worked hard."

"Director Huang, it's all up to you this time."

"Producer Li, you've worked hard."

The people in the box began to move around, toasting each other politely.

Even if they didn't like each other during the filming, they were all amiable at the banquet.

Lu Yuan found the screenwriter Zhang Jing in the crowd, and thanked him: "Mr. Zhang, thank you for your recommendation. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to learn from all the teachers. I have an order in the future, so I will respect you."

It was only later that Lu Yuan found out that it was because of Zhang Jing's recommendation that he had the opportunity to play Qi Ying. Lu Yuan will always remember this favor.

The show business circle can have bad acting skills, but it can't be a bad person. What this circle plays is the way of the world.

Otherwise, no matter how good your acting skills are, if people don't play with you, you will be blind.

There are always some well-known powerful acting schools in the circle, but they just don't come out to film.

Of course, some of them are gods, because they have high vision and can't make bad dramas, but most of them have to make a living, and no one invites such people, it's purely because of popularity.

Zhang Jing was still the same, haha ​​said: "You are being polite, it's nothing to me, the main thing is your own strength."

The two chatted for a while and parted ways.

Zhou Yang happened to walk past him with a faint scent of perfume.

He shouted: "Miss Zhou."

The first time I heard Lu Yuan call her a beauty, Zhou Yang was still a little embarrassed, she turned her head and said, "What are you doing!"

Lu Yuan clinked glasses with her, "Why are you blushing, drink less."

"I want you to take care of it!"

After speaking, his face became redder.

Feeling puzzled, Lu Yuan took a sip of his wine and said, "I wish Goujian, the King of Yue, to watch Changhong, and I also wish you a great success starting from this drama, to overthrow Liu Yifei as soon as possible, and ride her under you."

Zhou Yang was quite shy at the beginning, until she heard the indecent words later, she pursed her lips and said: "Don't provoke my relationship with Yifei, I will tell her when I go back to school. Yifei said last time, you will look good when I go back to school."

"Cut, Wangzai, I'm afraid of her?" Lu Yuan disdainfully.
