Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 341 TV Interview
  That night, Zhang Weiji worked on his homework until 11 p.m., and almost received a severe beating from his mother.

Even Zhang Weijian could not escape his mother's blame.

"You haven't finished your homework, why are you watching TV?"

He had no choice but to think that he would be tricked by that guy Zhang Weiji!
  You have so much homework and you still have the nerve to watch TV?

In the early morning, before dawn, Zhang Weijian had already gotten up.

Although he yawned repeatedly, he had to get up early because he had another very important interview today and he needed to be fully prepared.

After preparing for about two hours, he didn't walk out of the bedroom until his mother called him to eat.

"I'm done eating!"

"That's all you eat?"

In the morning, his mother made Zhang Weijian's favorite seafood porridge, but Zhang Weijian only ate half of the bowl and left home.

However, there is nothing he can do about it. The interview in the morning is very important. If he eats too much, it will easily affect his interview status.

After going out, Zhang Weijian took the subway to Phoenix TV Station.

Along the way, Zhang Weijian also met two passers-by asking for his autograph.

Although Zhang Weijian has only played minor roles in the past two years, after all, he also made his debut in a popular TV series, and his face is still familiar to many viewers!

When we arrived on the first floor of the TV station, the hall, which was usually crowded with people, was now even more crowded, obviously coming to attend the interview.

There is no way, this TV series has attracted much attention, which is very important for actors like them who are neither good nor bad.

After all, as a popular drama, in addition to being able to lead the protagonist, it is also very crucial for the reputation of the supporting characters to increase, and even surpass the protagonist.

It is impossible for ordinary actors to directly become the protagonist. With the help of an impressive role, you can gain more opportunities for yourself, so that you can gain qualifications for being a protagonist in the future.

Therefore, the appeal of such an opportunity to actors like them can be imagined.

"Hey, Zhang Weijian, are you here too?"

Just after completing registration at the registration office, Zhang Weijian was stopped by a voice.

Zhang Weijian heard the sound and looked around, and it turned out to be someone he knew.

"Yin Tianzhao, are you here too?"

The visitor's name is Yin Tianzhao, who was a student of the Phoenix Artist Training Class in 1982. Unfortunately, his career has not been smooth after graduation, and he is still unknown to this day.

Even in terms of familiarity in the eyes of the audience, Yin Tianzhao is not as high as Zhang Weijian, a boy who became a monk by the way!
  "No, this is the annual drama in the theater. How could I not try my luck?"

The two met last year because they both starred in a TV series. Although their relationship is not that good, they can talk.

"Who are you here to interview?"

"Of course it's Hua Jianxiong!"

Hearing this, Zhang Weijian's heart suddenly "thumped".

That's right, the TV series they attach so much importance to this time is "Chinese Heroes", the flagship work of "[-]D Youth Magazine".

This comic has been serialized for so long, but it has never been animated. The main reason is that it targets young audiences, who rarely watch cartoons!
  In addition, this comic is indeed very popular in Hong Kong Island, but it is not so popular in Neon, and it is difficult to export. Therefore, Li Wannian has not announced the animation in the past few years.

Now it's better. Although there is no animation, we actually plan to make a TV series directly. The main reason is that the readers of comics and the audience of TV series are highly overlapped. At a glance, you can tell that it is a sure-profit business. In terms of reputation, Ma Rongcheng is naturally not as good as his master Li Wannian.

But apart from Li Wannian, Ma Rongcheng has never been afraid of other cartoonists on Hong Kong Island, not even Huang Yulang and Shangguan Xiaobao.

Relying on the platform of Second Dimension Magazine, Ma Rongcheng is even more powerful. The sales volume of this comic in his hand has exceeded that of "Dragon Tiger Gate" and "Bruce Lee" which have been accumulated for more than ten years.

Many media have even begun to advocate that among Hong Kong cartoonists, Ma Wing-cheng is one person below ten thousand.

Therefore, when Li Wannian's great apprentice Ma Rongcheng's comic "Heroes of China" was to be made into a TV series, it naturally caused quite a stir.

Kirin Entertainment announced the news early and said it would spend huge sums of money on production.

This is why Zhang Weijian attaches great importance to this interview. Big production and big investment mean that the probability of success of the TV series will be higher!
  Just playing a role in it would definitely be the icing on the cake!
  "Hahaha, I'm kidding you! Look how nervous you are!"

Just when Zhang Weijian's expression became extremely serious, Yin Tianzhao suddenly laughed.

"what?"

"I'm just kidding you. The person I want to interview is Huoshiro. I don't have the guts to interview for a role like Hua Jianxiong!"

This time "Heroes of China" only filmed a part of Firebird Island in the comics.

Even so, as the son of the leading actor Hua Yingxiong, Hua Jianxiong's role can be regarded as the second male lead in the entire TV series. Yin Tianzhao is very self-aware and knows that there is no way he will be interviewed, so he joked with Zhang Weijian.

"Haha, you are really humorous!"

Seeing Yin Tianzhao's swishing look, Zhang Weijian said with a smile.

"But you are still very brave. You dare to interview Hua Jianxiong. Are you sure?"

"Of course not. I'm just trying anyway. What if I succeed?"

"Your chance of success is too small. You might as well choose a supporting role. This way you have a greater chance of being chosen!"

Yin Tianzhao also felt that Zhang Weijian's choice this time was a bit risky, and couldn't help but worry.

"Thank you, Brother Tianzhao. Unfortunately, I can't change it now. I prepared it according to the role of Hua Jianxiong!"

Zhang Weijian actually did not say some words.

He has read the comic "Chinese Heroes". Although he has not read the script, he knows the general relationship between the characters. After analyzing it, he thinks that his conditions should be more suitable for Hua Jianxiong, who is naughty, loves to tease people and plays tricks, but Pure character.

Therefore, even if he is the second male lead in this role, he still wants to fight for it. After all, he is a perfect fit.

However, he did not say this to Yin Tianzhao. After all, it would be useless to talk about these things, and it might even arouse others' jealousy.

"Hey, that's such a pity. Come on, I hope you can succeed. Don't forget me then!"

"Hahaha, let me borrow your good words!"

Sure enough, after Yin Tianzhao heard Zhang Weijian's reason, although he didn't know whether it was true or false, he had no extra thoughts and instead blessed him.

But in my heart, Zhang Weijian had been sentenced to death at this time.

A young actor with no background wants to play the second male lead? If he can choose it, I will eat this camera!

Looking at a camera not far away, Yin Tianzhao swore secretly in his heart.
