Chapter 219 Interview
After sending out audition invitations to the two leading actors, Ning Sheng also sent audition invitations to a few important roles he was optimistic about. As for the other roles, he waited three days for an open recruitment interview.

Early in the morning, Ning Sheng rushed to the studio, because he was going to interview several main roles here in the morning.Manager Lin Ling came in from the outside and said, "Mr. Ning, the copyright of Huayi's "Legend of New Chuliuxiang" has been sold, and Mango Channel has won it at a total price of 300 million cabbage. It is estimated that it will start broadcasting next week, except for the TV rights. , Their online copyright was also sold to another domestic video company, a total of 100 million."

Ning Sheng nodded and said, "That is to say, this TV series invested by Huayi with tens of millions of dollars only received a total of 400 million in revenue?"

Lin Ling nodded and said, "This is the case at the moment, but if the ratings and clicks of "Legend of New Chu Liuxiang" are good after it airs, it may sell more."

Ning Cheng thought of the protagonist with a unique style of painting, shook his head and said with a disdainful smile, "Then we will wait and see how popular this martial arts masterpiece starring popular idols will be."

"However, even if it is possible to sell the copyright, the show will be lost. Huayi's own investment will not be recovered, and Jiang Quan's investment will be absolutely impossible. He will lose the 1000 million investment. It's settled!" Lin Ling said.

"It's only 1000 million, and the days are still long. Continue to pay attention to the movements of Jiang Quan and his company. As soon as there is any new investment, let me know immediately." Ning Cheng ordered, "By the way, there will be actors coming for interviews in a while. Is everything ready?"

Lin Ling said, "Don't worry, everything is ready. The interview location is in the conference room. Besides you, the director, there is also the assistant director you hired a few days ago. Of course, there is also the producer of my crew. There are three interviewees in total. Interviewer, are you okay?"

Ning Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, you can go to work first, and let me know when the person arrives."

In fact, Ning Cheng could do the interview by himself, but after all, it was his first time directing, and it was such a formal interview, he still felt that it would be good for several people to come up with ideas, or he himself was a little nervous.

Gu Tianle and his manager, Sister Yun, got off the plane, took a taxi directly to Xingtong Studio, arrived half an hour before the agreed interview time at [-]:[-] in the morning, and were arranged to rest and wait in the living room, and then half an hour later During the time, Li Ruotong and her agent, Chen Hong and her manager, and Li Qihong and others also arrived one after another.

As soon as nine o'clock arrived, the three of Ning Cheng sat in the conference room. The staff went out and called in the actors who had come to interview. Since everyone was interviewing for different roles, Ning Cheng didn't let them do it one by one. Come in, and his interview later will also require their cooperation.

Just like what Ning Sheng said to Director Xu when he participated in the interview for "I Have a Date with a Zombie" for the first time, although he is very optimistic about the appearance of these actors, whether he can win the role or not depends on their acting skills , if the acting skills are too bad, then Ning Sheng will still change people. After all, whether it is a TV series or a movie, besides the story, the most important thing is the actor's acting skills.

Colleagues in the conference room other than the studio have tidied up, and the huge conference table has been removed. In the large space, only the three of Ning Cheng are sitting. There are three small tables in front of it, making the space wider, even if a camera is placed , It is also enough for the actors to perform to their heart's content.

"Everyone's roles are different, which one is willing to try first?" Ning Cheng asked.

Gu Tianle looked at the other women, got up and said, "I'll come first."

Ning Cheng nodded and said, "Okay, please tell me what you think about your role first."

Gu Tianle thought for a while and said, "I think Yang Guo is a somewhat paranoid, a little innocent, and a little casual person. Yang Guo has lived in the market since he was a child. Although he is a bit stubborn, he is a sincere and passionate person. You can wait for 16 years, and at the same time admit your father's fault, call yourself an unfilial son, act chivalrously, and act wildly, worthy of the title of Xikuang!"

Ning Sheng nodded and said, "However, it seems that you have a good understanding of the characters, so now you are acting in a scene of Yang Guo, and the part where the little dragon girl suddenly leaves, and then Huang Rong made up the story of the Nanhai God and nun, telling you that it will be 16 years later. Goodbye Xiaolongnv when I have a chance, just act out how you act when you hear the news."

Gu Tianle nodded and said, "Okay, I'll think about it for a while and brew up my emotions." After about 3 minutes, he said, "Okay, I'll start, first of all, the appearance of Xiaolongnu after she left."

Then, under the watchful eyes of Ning Cheng and others, Gu Tianle's handsome face first had dim eyes, heartbroken, tears brimming with tears, and a sense of despair was conveyed.

"Now, you have heard the legend of the Nanhai Goddess, and you know that there may be news about the day when you will meet the little dragon girl!" Ning Cheng said.

Gu Tianle, who was still desperate just now, was a little dazed at first, then his eyes gradually brightened, and he asked tremblingly, "Aunt Guo, is this true? Longer and I will meet again?"

"Okay, that's fine, please go to the side and take a rest." Ning Cheng nodded in satisfaction, and then directly called the next interviewer, "Li Ruotong, come and try a little dragon girl scene."

Gu Tianle's Yang Guo, Li Ruotong's Little Dragon Girl, Li Qihong's Guo Xiang, Chen Hong's Li Mochou, and Fu Mingxian's Guo Fu, the actors here are basically young actors in their early twenties, and the oldest Chen Hong is also It's less than thirty, but the acting skills are really good, especially Li Mochou played by Chen Hong, who perfectly presents the image of the glamorous Taoist nun and cruelty.

After the one-by-one interviews, Ning Sheng asked the two of them to act together, not only to test their acting skills, but also to see how well they cooperated and mastered the script. The result was very good. Ning Sheng was very satisfied and signed with them on the spot. contract.

Gu Tianle and the others were even more happy. Except for Chen Hong who played a supporting role before, and this time it was a supporting role, everyone else was very satisfied with their roles, especially Gu Tianle, Li Ruotong, and Li Qihong. The second-tier, even the third-tier, and the little people who don't reach the third-tier, it is simply lucky to be able to get such an important role this time.

Gu Tianle even invites everyone to have a meal and get together. Anyway, he will work in the same crew in the future, so it is good to get acquainted with it in advance.Everyone excitedly left the studio to have dinner.

On the other hand, Ning Cheng was too lazy to go out, so he ordered takeaway, dealt with it, and then continued to look for actors in the afternoon. This time, what he was looking for were some veteran actors whose acting skills were unquestionable, such as Huang Yaoshi, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, and others. For the actors, Ning Sheng has more information from the actor union, compares the characters in the original TV series, and calls if there are suitable ones, such as Zeng Jiang who plays Huang Yaoshi, and Wei Qiuhua who plays the middle-aged Huang Rong. If there is no suitable original character for comparison, Then choose the old drama bones of this world instead.
