Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 154 Hype Sister Zhiling
If it is not for marketing, otherwise the crew will generally not open external casting.

This is true of "Sculpture of the Gods", and it is also true of "A Dream of Red Mansions" later.

Even if it was necessary to cast a role, it would not choose the lead role. The lead role is usually recommended by the circle, or the crew has a favorite actor who takes the initiative to invite.

According to the normal production process, you have to wait for the script to come out—at least the first draft—before you can start casting actors.But now many agents have contacted the studio to recommend their artists.

More than 90% of them have never read the original comics of "Apocalypse of Gambling", and they pushed their own actors to come in even if they didn't know what the story was.

We're all in the same circle, so it's not easy to say harsh words directly. The studio only responded that it would collect artist information and consider it.

But in fact, the first batch of materials handed over were not well-known and capable actors.

The studio will not be casting for the time being, and the artist's resume will be suppressed for later use.

The characters in "Animal World" are really too simple, there are no more than 8 people with names and surnames.

For the role, Zhang Yuanjun had a difficult time.

He was also quick-witted and quick-talking at the time, and thought that Xia Yu was suitable, so he invited him by the way.

He didn't consider that Hua Yi might be interested in "Animal World".

If Huayi invests, whether he can still use Xia Yu is a question mark. He is Wang Jinghua's artist, and he left with Wang Jinghua in August last year.

Huayi also encountered difficulties. Through communication with Zhang Yuanjun's studio, I learned that "Animal World" will be a man's play, and the only female character with a name is Liu Qing. a cameo.

It's not worthwhile for Huayi to push its own female artist into it.

What Huayi wanted was at least two of Li Jun, Meng Xiaopang, and Zhang Jingkun.

There are quite a few male artists under Hua Yi, and now there are more wolves and less meat, and they are all waiting in line for the show.

But it's still early, and it won't be too late to talk about these after Zhang Yuanjun confirms the script and director.

At the same time, I don't know who disclosed it. In the past two days, a news spread:
"Zhang Yuanjun's new film "Rock Paper Scissors" plans to invite Lin Zhiling to play the leading role."

The spread was very heated.

The key is that Lin Zhiling responded very friendly:

"If there is a suitable opportunity, I also hope to try acting... I'm not afraid of being ugly, it's okay."

It's okay now, it's okay if you don't respond, but once you respond, things will explode.

Liu Yifei, who was surfing domestic waves intensively, called Zhang Yuanjun that night: "Didn't you agree to give me the heroine, why did you change your mind again!"

"It's you who have changed your mind." Zhang Yuanjun said, "Do you understand hype and marketing? Now our drama has relatively low attention, and you know that it is tied to Lin Zhiling to hype it."

"Whatever you say."

Zhang Yuanjun also explained: "After she came back from injury, the exposure has not returned to what it used to be, and our new film has not received much attention. Before I went to Wandao to promote the new album, we can market it together. She borrowed my popularity. , to see if I can enter the film and television industry, and I will use her popularity to give the new film a gamble for attention, mutual benefit. I will meet her in the capital in a few days, and deliberately let the reporter take pictures."

"Didn't you ask her to play the heroine?"

"She hasn't learned acting in a day, why should I ask her? Besides, how old is she, to play my girlfriend, she wants to or I don't."

"She is so beautiful, are you not satisfied with playing your girlfriend?" Liu Yifei felt relieved when she learned that her heroine has not been replaced, "Lin Zhiling is so popular now, she is beautiful and gentle, she is called a goddess .”

Zhang Yuanjun coaxed: "No matter how goddess she is, she is not as good as our little dragon girl."

"Bah! You can say such cheap words." Liu Yifei didn't accept Zhang Yuanjun's tricks through the phone.

The two talked for a while, mainly about Liu Yifei's training in Japan.

"Let me tell you, Japanese vocal training is super strict, no wonder they are at the forefront of the Asian music scene." J-pop music is indeed a big brother in Asia, "I have learned a lot."

"Then how are you practicing?"

"Absolutely." Liu Yifei's talent in singing and dancing is really average, and she is too embarrassed to brag about herself, "I will officially record a song next month."

"Congratulations, it's her official debut." It should be her first Japanese EP, the title song of which is the ending song of "Powerpuff Girls Z", "You have to sing with your heart, my album is now sold It's almost 60, but you said you would surpass me."

"I'm sure I can surpass you!" Liu Yifei said harshly, "I won't tell you anymore, hang up."

The two sides will allow the news of "Lin Chi Ling to play the leading actress" to ferment for a few days.

During this period, some actresses who were interested in Liu Qing were very anxious.

Zhang Yuanjun is now a popular niche, with sales of his new album exceeding 60, and millions of sales are just around the corner. During this time, no one is more popular than him.

No matter the quality of "Rock, Paper, Scissors" is high or low, there is no shortage of exposure to be able to hook up with Zhang Yuanjun now.

The first to attack was her classmate Jiang Yiyan.

In fact, she really doesn't need it. Her current boyfriend is rich and capable. He has already helped him secure Aihui Records. He plans to release a film this year and enter the music scene.

In 02, besides Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei, she is the best developed.

But people are always greedy. Su Mengdie in "Rising Fame" had no choice but to miss out because the role didn't suit her. Teacher Yu took the role, and she had nothing to say.

But now Liu Qing, the heroine of "Rock, Paper, Scissors", must have the strength to fight for it.

In terms of age, it is suitable.

In terms of image, it fits.

In terms of acting skills, Jiang Yiyan thinks she is better than Liu Yifei and Wang Jia.

Coupled with the help of her boyfriend, Zhang Yuanjun might not be able to handle it.

And she knew even more that Zhang Yuanjun still lived in the school dormitory and did not move out.

People are easier to find.

Don't forget that Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin, and Lu Fangsheng have something in their hands.

Ask them to create conditions, I believe they will not refuse.

But when Jiang Yiyan asked Luo Jin for their help to make an appointment with Zhang Yuanjun, she was unexpectedly rejected.

"You don't need to beat around the bush like this. They are all classmates. If you look down and don't look up, if you want to see him, can he still drive you out?"

Some people have too many eyes.

"That's right." Zhu Yawen said, "He has met eighty or one hundred actors these days. If you want to fight for a role, you can do it generously. Doing these things will make him unhappy. When the time comes, we will ask him out." Come out to eat and relax, you come to talk about the script and the role, what will he think?"

"He's not a stingy person, and he doesn't have any opinion on you, so just call him and talk to him."

Seeing that they refused to help, Jiang Yiyan felt that what they said was reasonable, so she directly called Zhang Yuanjun.
