China Entertainment started in 2004

Chapter 275 Admired

Mei Ting saw Ma Yili and others looking over with curious eyes, and had no choice but to explain: "Director Wang called me to audition a few days ago, and now the role has been decided. I came here today to tell the company, and then go A tree makes a contract.”

"Ah?" Ma Yili, Xiao Songjia, and Jiang Yiyan were suddenly surprised.

Although Mei Ting starred in movies in the early days of her career, she has been involved in the television industry since then and is considered a TV drama actor.

Not only is he back on the big screen now, but he is also starring in a movie directed by Wang Shu? !

Moreover, I heard that it is still one of the top three art films in Europe? !

There are so many movie actors in the entertainment industry, why is a TV drama actor so lucky? ! !

Admired.

Ma Yili, Xiao Songjia, and Jiang Yiyan were immediately envious.

No wonder they saw Yuan Li, Zuo Xiaoqing and others looking at Mei Ting with a hint of envy. So that was what happened.

They could understand that if Mei Ting was a movie actor and was selected by Wang Shu to audition and get the role, they would feel quite balanced.

Ke. Mei Ting is a TV actress.

The first thing is to be able to contact Wang Shu, and then there will be more possibilities.

This is a director who can be praised as the winner of the International Best Actress crown at three major European film festivals!

This is not an ordinary movie, nor is it an ordinary character.

For example, the Mei Ting in front of me.

If you are lucky enough to get a role this time and have the opportunity to join the crew, and then develop a good relationship with Wang Shu, you may be able to play the heroine in a movie directed by Wang Shu in the future.

The movie directed by Wang Shu is an excellent opportunity, and there is no shame in asking.

Mei Ting had no choice but to explain again: "Director Wang's art film has only one important female role in the whole film, which is the one I will play."

Maybe just a small supporting role?

After finishing speaking, he added, "This drama is a man's drama, mainly featuring male characters."

"Then there are no other important female characters, not even supporting ones."

Plus, in front of so many people, there was no need for Mei Ting to lie.

Because most of the movie scripts are men's dramas, and female roles account for relatively few, this is something they all know.

They also knew that Mei Ting had collaborated with Wang Shu in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" last year, and now she was called by Wang Shu to audition and got the role. Could it be that she caught Wang Shu's eye at that time and then got the chance?

Thinking of this, they were filled with admiration again.

What kind of luck is this?

Isn’t it too outrageous?

But this movie is rumored to be Wang Shu's plan to hit the top three movies in Europe.

"Ah?" When Jiang Yiyan, Ma Yili, and Xiao Songjia heard this, the disappointment flashed across their faces.

Yuan Li was surprised to see them, and said at the right time: "Ting'er has read the script. It is a man's drama. There is only one important female role in it, and this female role is the one she plays."

At this moment, she wanted to get to know Wang Shu even more.

The three of them thought at the same time.

She was thinking in her mind that since Mei Ting played the heroine, there would be remaining supporting actresses in the play.

Facts have proved that only by getting to know Wang Shu, you are more likely to be selected by the other party.

Jiang Yiyan doesn't think the pie will fall on her head, and taking the initiative to fight for it is the most correct thing to do.

Wang Shu is both a great director and the boss of a film and television company who controls resources. If he catches his eye, it means an opportunity.

If it were an ordinary movie character, they wouldn't be like this.

I didn't expect it to be such a drama.

The chances are relatively slim.

Last year, Jiang Wenli starred in "The Tuner" directed by Wang Shu and won the Outstanding Actress Award at the Cannes International Film Festival.

I originally thought that Mei Ting would only play a supporting role, but I didn't expect that she would be the heroine!

Compared with Ma Yili and Xiao Songjia's full expectations, Yuan Li, Zuo Xiaoqing and others smiled knowingly.

"So... Director Wang gave you the only female role?" Jiang Yiyan opened her mouth.

Ma Yili and Xiao Songjia also had expectations in their hearts when they heard Jiang Yiyan ask this.

With Wang Shu's ability, Mei Ting will most likely be able to walk on the red carpet of Europe's three major events, and even sit under the stage of the awards ceremony to compete for awards!

How envious!

Jiang Yiyan couldn't help but ask: "Sister Mei, aren't there roles for supporting actresses? Can you recommend some of us to Director Wang?"

In this way, when Wang Shu selects actors, they will be ranked behind actors like Mei Ting who are familiar with them.

"At most, there are some extras."

Can this person be selected by Wang Shu to make an art film that will hit the top three in Europe? ! !

I thought I could get the opportunity to audition through Mei Ting's connections.

"Ah? Isn't this the heroine?" Ma Yili, Xiao Songjia, and Jiang Yiyan were surprised when they heard this.

She is a small-screen TV actress, and she was selected by Wang Shu to star in an art film that hit the top three in Europe? ! !

Totally admired.

On the contrary, even if Wang Shu knew about these actors who had never worked with Wang Shu before, he didn't have much impression of them.

They had no doubt about this.

"She is the heroine." Zuo Xiaoqing responded, with envy in his tone.

If you can't even get in touch with Wang Shu, there will be so much competition in the entertainment industry, and only a few will lose the pie in the world.

Mei Ting silently looked at everyone's expressions and felt a little proud in her heart.

In the past, although the artists in the company were polite to her, they were definitely not as envious or respectful as they are today.

She also knows that although the reason is that she will star in the art film directed by Wang Shu, the reason is more that she has Wang Shu's network.

She nodded and replied with a smile: "That's true, so I'm very grateful to Director Wang for giving me this opportunity."

Although this is not the case, it must be said so, otherwise this matter may be misunderstood when spread.

After finishing speaking, Jiang Yiyan and others were silent and didn't know what they were thinking, and then continued: "I think you should also know that Director Wang's selection of actors is actually very random."

"For example, Zhou Xun, Sun Li, Yan Danchen, Fan Binbin, etc. have all collaborated with him."

Although this was not stated explicitly, Jiang Yiyan and others understood it clearly.

This shows that Wang Shu's selection of actors is not influenced by investors and he can choose whoever he wants.

For example, I chose her this time.

It is precisely because they understand clearly that people like them feel envious.

Wang Shu has the resources and can decide on the role with one word.

But if you don’t know Wang Shu and don’t have this network, it will be difficult to get a chance.

If it had been two or three years ago, when Wang Shu had just debuted, he would have known few people, and he might have been lucky enough to be selected by Wang Shu.

now

Zhou Xun not only starred in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", but also starred in "The Witch in Suit" and the blockbuster "Cruise of Terror".

Sun Li starred in both "Space Traveler" and "Secret Garden".

Now it is Mei Ting's turn to star in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and to star in one of Europe's top three art films.

Each of these examples has shown the difference between getting acquainted with Wang Shu and never getting acquainted with him. "Alas." Little Song Jia sighed and said openly: "I thought I could follow Sister Mei Zhanzhanguang to audition with Director Wang this time, but I didn't expect there was only one female character."

Mei Ting smiled and said, "There will be opportunities in the future."

She did not say that she would recommend them in the future, but only said that there would be opportunities in the future.

Yuan Li, Xiao Songjia, Jiang Yiyan and others all understood in their hearts, but they didn't say much.

They also knew that there were a lot of people around, and it would be difficult for Mei Ting to respond to this matter.

It's not a duty, it's a matter of affection.

Do they still have the kindness to allow Mei Ting to recommend so many people to Wang Shu in one fell swoop?

Seeing that someone was hesitant to speak, Mei Ting immediately said: "It's getting late. I'll go up and talk to the company first, and then I have to go to Yishu Company."

When Zuo Xiaoqing and others heard what Mei Ting said, they immediately smiled and said: "Then you go first, don't delay."

"Yes, don't delay."

"Let's talk later when we have time."

Several others also responded one after another.

"Okay, then I'll leave first." Mei Ting responded with a smile, and then left under the eyes of everyone.

Yuan Li looked at Mei Ting's leaving figure from a distance and sighed: "I didn't expect that the heroine of Director Wang's play would be Mei Ting."

"Yes, even though it's a man's drama, it still has one important female role, so it can still shine." Zuo Xiaoqing continued.

Ma Yili and others nodded when they heard this. A man's play is a man's play, but there is only one important female role in the play, which can actually highlight this role.

"Let's go." Xiao Song Jia said, and they walked towards the conference room together.

Mei Ting found her agent at the company and told Wang Shu that she would star in "The Crowd".

When the agent heard this, he was immediately shocked and subconsciously asked: "Sister Mei, are you kidding?"

Mei Ting heard this and said speechlessly: "Am I wrong to make this joke with you?"

"Uh." The manager laughed twice, with an indescribable embarrassment on her face. She was just too surprised when she heard Mei Ting tell the news, so she asked the wrong question.

"What role is it?" The agent asked curiously after calming down.

"Although this is a man's drama, there is only one important female role in the whole drama, and that is the one I played." Mei Ting said.

When the agent began to hear the words "men's drama", a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes, because in men's dramas, usually the female characters are just a vase, not only do they not have many roles, but they are not outstanding.

However, when she heard that there was only one important female role in the entire play, her eyes lit up again.

There is only one female character. Even if she doesn't have many roles and is still a vase, she can still shine against the backdrop of many male characters.

"Did Director Wang say we should sign the contract now?" The agent stopped talking nonsense and asked immediately.

"Yes, I plan to go to Yishu Company after the meeting." Mei Ting said.

She came to Chengtian today because of the meeting.

Otherwise, she would talk to her agent on the phone instead of coming to the company.

"Okay, you go to the meeting first, and I will make the preparations here. After you come out, we will go to Director Wang's Yishu Company." The agent said immediately.

"Okay." Mei Ting nodded and turned around to go to the meeting.

In the conference room, since Yang Ruoxi, Jiang Yiyan and others arrived first, many people had already arrived.

Therefore, there have been rumors that she will star in the heroine of "Human Mountain".

The moment she walked into the conference room, everyone looked at her in unison.

Everyone knows that Wang Shu's film is going to the three major European film festivals, most likely the Venice Film Festival.

As the heroine in the film, wouldn’t Mei Ting be able to compete for the Best Actress title in Venice?

If Mei Ting really returned home with a trophy for Best Actress at the Venice International Film Festival.

Then, their status is no longer the same.

When Mei Ting saw all the artists in the company looking at her, she was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening. She put a generous smile on her face and walked in.

On the other side, Deng Chao couldn't wait to make a call to Sun Li.

"Teacher Sun, what are you busy with?" Deng Chao asked, temporarily suppressing his purpose.

"Nothing to do, rest." Sun Li's voice sounded.

She was very busy some time ago, and she was filming "Sweet Honey" with Deng Chao just before the Lunar New Year.

After rushing to work, the project was successfully completed a few days before the Lunar New Year.

In the original timeline, "Sweet Honey" was completed in January 2007.

Now, with some minor discrepancies, the project was successfully finalized in February.

When Deng Chao heard what Sun Li said, he immediately stopped talking nonsense to her and asked straight to the point: "Do you know that Director Wang is filming a new movie again?"

"I heard that it seems to be preparing to hit the top three art films in Europe." Sun Li answered.

"Did Director Wang call you to audition?" Deng Chao asked immediately after hearing this, knowing that Sun Li should also know that Wang Shu would select actors through auditions.

"No." Sun Li sighed.

Deng Chao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and quickly figured out the reason. At the same time, he was even more certain that the art film directed by Wang Shu this time would hit the top three in Europe.

Actress Sun Li is not from a major. Although she has experience in a cultural troupe and has won awards for dancing,

Therefore, Wang Shu most likely wants to find a capable actor to star in the role, but in his eyes, Sun Li is not considered a capable actor.

So I didn’t ask Sun Li to audition.

"That's it," Deng Chao responded, and then said with a smile, "Maybe it's because your image doesn't fit, so Director Wang didn't call you to audition."

Audition is not about deciding the role.

Logically speaking, based on interpersonal relationships, Wang Shu and Sun Li have collaborated many times, and they are considered friends. Under normal circumstances, Sun Li would be invited to audition.

Now, there are no invitations.

There is only one answer.

There is a high probability that Sun Li is not suitable, so she will not be invited to audition.

"Maybe." Sun Li responded, then changed the subject and asked: "Is there something wrong with you calling me suddenly?"

"Can't I call you if I have nothing to do? Can't I miss you?" Deng Chao said with a smile.

"Say something quickly and fart quickly." Sun Li scolded with a laugh.

"Haha." Deng Chao laughed twice and said, "Didn't I hear that Director Wang is directing an art film that will hit the top three in Europe?"

"And I didn't get an invitation to audition."

"So, I was thinking, how about you recommend me to Director Wang? See if I can go for a audition."
