China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 36 Audition and Casting
  Downstairs of Dongcheng Pictures, with the appearance of a number of first- and second-tier female stars such as Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Zhang Ziyi, Le Xun, Yan Danchen, Zeng Ni, Gao Yuanyuan, etc., it can be said that the media reporters who were waiting there were extremely excited.

"Look, there's another nanny van coming over there."

"Who is it? This scene looks quite big."

"It seems to be a Hong Kong and Taiwan artist... Damn it, it's Hong Kong's new generation of pure and beautiful girl Zhang Baizi. Hurry up, take a photo quickly, this is all hot news material."

"Brother Dog, there's another one behind. Hey, it seems to be Gillian from the earthy silk group."

"What kind of Tusi, they call it Tuai Si... Tuai Si combination, I told you to read more books and you won't listen."

"Haha, Brother Dog, it's Twins, not kicking silk, let alone tuai silk. Don't teach your disciples hahahahaha."

"Big B, what the hell do you have to do? Just get out of here."

……

To be honest, it was a bit beyond Chen Dong's expectation that so many first- and second-tier female stars came to audition.

This is completely opposite to the situation when he was preparing for his first movie "Buried Alive" and couldn't find actors. Now he has a pile of outstanding actor resumes placed in front of him for him to choose from.

"Teacher Wu, this is the script of "The Tuner". You can take it back and read it first. In addition, the movie should start shooting in May, and it is estimated that the filming will take about two months. You can coordinate the schedule here."

After a whole day of interviews, the 38-year-old teacher Wu Yanshu, who was born in 66, was the first actor Chen Dong directly confirmed on the spot. Teacher Wu played the role of the heroine's neighbor in the movie. .

At the same time, Teacher Wu was also the last actor Chen Dong interviewed today. After the other party signed the contract, he personally sent him out of the company.

After dinner, Chen Dong did not go to rest, but came to the office to continue working overtime.

At this time, there have been a lot of news about daytime auditions on the Internet, and each of the stunts is quite exciting. Even Chen Dong can't help but click in and take a peek when surfing the Internet.

Of course, his main focus is still on selecting actors.

First of all, for the role of No. 1 female Sika, Chen Dong was holding two resumes for comparison.

One is Fan Binbin, and the other is Zeng Ni, the school beauty who graduated in 96 from the Chinese Academy of Drama.

The heroine Sika is a beautiful and charming egoist, but also ruthless.

In terms of role compatibility, in fact, in Chen Dong's heart, Fan Binbin is better.

but,

As a reborn person, Chen Dong knew that something was going to happen to him later, which was also the key to his delay in making up his mind.

While hesitating, the cell phone on the table suddenly rang.

Chen Dong was frightened directly.

Seeing that the call was from Jiang Wen, Chen Dong didn't want to answer it because he didn't need to guess the other person's intention of calling him at this time.

But this guy made two calls in a row.

Chen Dong still picked up the phone.

As expected, the other party came for the role.

Five minutes later, Chen Dong hung up the phone with a curse, but picked up Fan Binbin's resume again.

He clicked his tongue twice and put it aside.

Yes, he still chose Fan Binbin as the heroine, not only because she is the most suitable, but also not because Jiang Wen came to say hello on behalf of the Beijing circle, mainly because Fan Binbin will still follow the old path that Chen Dong is familiar with, at least she has played Works will not be blocked.

Unlike Zhao Zhetian, who was very popular two years ago for his role in Little Swallow...well, he really didn't dare to use this one.

As for Zeng Ni——

To be honest, during today's audition, Chen Dong really felt amazing. If she was given a chance, she might not be able to become popular, but unfortunately, maybe she really lacked a fire in her life, so she could only take part in the audition. This is the first time I have the opportunity to cooperate.

After confirming the candidate for the heroine, Chen Dong presented the list of candidate actors for the second heroine Sophie.

The first resume, Zhang Baizi...

Chen Dong put her on the candidate list. In addition to her role compatibility, which he could score 95 points for, he also considered the market in Hong Kong and Taiwan. However, when he thought of the photo scandal a few years ago, he still shook his head. He opened it and looked at the second resume. ——Yan Danchen.

The heroine in Chen Dong's previous play is also her direct senior sister, and her character compatibility is 90%. If Weixun hadn't auditioned in front of her today, Chen Dong would have been cast.

So the third resume is a message.

Brother Xun came today and wanted to audition for the female lead, but unfortunately he didn’t have that hot figure.

As for her suitability for the role of Sophie, Chen Dong gave her a score of 93.
  But in terms of acting skills, Chen Dong felt that her performance in the audition was enough to reach 99.

As his boss said, some actors are really blessed by God.

Chirping is one of them.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Dong put down Yan Danchen's resume and put Brother Xun's resume aside, stacking it with Fan Binbin's.

The third girl, the lottery girl, Chen Dong also had several alternatives in hand, and finally he settled on Su Chang.

In fact, this girl is not the most suitable, but who calls her Miss Liu's best friend, isn't that what she will be in the future... Ahem, in short, there is no harm in taking care of her.

……

The next day.

The second day of the audition.

Audition for a male role today.

Just like yesterday, many media reporters were guarding the downstairs of Dongcheng Pictures' company early in the morning, setting up long guns and short cannons to target every male star who came to audition.

Although the most outstanding male lead in "The Tuner" has been confirmed by one of the lucky ones, there are also a few male supporting roles that seem to be more outstanding, so many first- and second-tier big names came one after another on this day. .

In the afternoon, when the last auditionee went out, Chen Dong immediately stood up and hammered his sore waist from sitting for too long.

Chen Dong is a man of action. He wants to decide on the actor as soon as possible and announce it to the public as soon as possible, so as to save those who haven't got the role from waiting for it.

And those who get the role can come early to sign the contract and take the script back to think about it more.

After all, "The Tuner" is not like his last movie, which is more about acting.

In the office, Chen Dong is currently struggling with who Sika's husband, the retired actor, should choose.

The reason why he was confused was because none of the male actors who came to audition today particularly met his expectations.

I remember that he and Jiang Wen were on the phone before. Thinking of Jia Bin in "Hurry Up", he thought it would be more suitable for him to play the role. However, this person did not come to the audition today. When he asked the teacher, he said he did not know this person.

But Wang Jinsong said he would help ask.

"On cloudy days, in the evening, outside the car window, there is a person waiting in the future..."

Chen Dong's cell phone rang. He didn't even look at it. He thought it was a call from his boss, so he picked it up and answered it.

"Hey, teacher..."

"I am Han Shanping."

"Uh, Director Han? Are you okay?"

"Are you busy? Come out for a meal. Someone wants to meet you, a great young director."

"Hey, I've only made two movies. I was lucky enough to get some mediocre results. I'm not a big director. But who wants to see me? I have to trouble you, Director Han, to send a message?"

"Haha, Director Xiao Chen is so humble. I am Cheng Long..."

Chen Dong felt a bit familiar when he heard another voice coming from the receiver. When the other person announced his home address, he stood up with a swish.

Picked up the car keys and walked out.
