Chapter 109 The director is all set, audition at Beijing Film Academy!
Most importantly.
At this time, Ding Yangguo, who was not famous, was obedient enough.
We'll be on set then.
Wherever Wang Yihan pointed, he would rush in that direction.
How comfortable!
Shen Yi summoned the person over with just one phone call.
I've heard there's an opportunity to direct independently.
He was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.
Without mentioning any conditions, not even asking about his own director's fee, he quickly agreed.
He looked so eager, as if he was afraid the other party would change their mind.
This made Shen Yi burst into laughter, pointing at him and saying, "Old Ding, you! You didn't even ask about the director's fee?"
Ding Yangguo touched his receding hairline sheepishly, "It's a rare opportunity, you know. I'm already over 40, and it's not easy to come across such a rare chance..."
"Alright, let's not bring up these painful memories in front of them. You two can talk."
As he spoke, he vacated the study.
Let the two of them talk alone.
The conversation went very smoothly.
The director's fee is 150 million.
Full of sincerity.
Ding Yangguo agreed immediately.
Get things sorted out here.
Wang Yihan said goodbye and left.
Ding Yangguo personally escorted the person to the car.
Then, returning to his long-time collaborator, he looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "Didn't you have some free time lately? Why didn't you take the job yourself?"
Shen Yi helplessly spread his hands: "You know what's going on between him and Hunan TV, how could I dare to take on his roles?"
Ding Yangguo said thoughtfully, "So, you're choosing to side with Hunan TV?"
"Standing my ass, it's just about making money!" Shen Yi said irritably, looking at him. "Didn't I recommend you to him?"
"Remember, sneak into the village and don't fire a shot. Keep a low profile."
Ding Yangguo suddenly realized: "You're two-timing me!"
"Go to hell with you!" Shen Yi was speechless.
.......
Two hours later.
Wang Yihan had already closed her eyes to rest on the plane.
This trip.
not bad.
The director has it all sorted out.
The script for Giddens Ko's movie is also taking shape.
There's still a gap between then and later when it matured.
But it will be usable after some more polishing.
Hmm, is there something I've forgotten?
"Oh, I forgot to visit Li Zhongsheng." Wang Yihan slapped her forehead.
Upon learning that Wang Yihan was going to Taiwan, Song Ke mentioned that he should visit Li Zhongsheng, the company's "Chief Music Consultant".
Of course, this advisor title is just an honorary one.
He is not an employee of Taihe Rye Music.
It's just a cooperative relationship.
"Never mind, next time, next time for sure!"
.......
I heard that the director is from Taiwan.
The TV station producer made the payment very quickly and efficiently.
Nothing.
There is a serious lack of directors in this field in mainland China.
The lead actors, director, and script are all secured.
Now we are only missing three important supporting actors.
As for the other less important peripheral roles, let the studio's assistant director choose them.
That's right, after they started planning to make a TV series.
The studio has hired a new batch of staff.
Among them are graduates from the directing departments of the three major art academies.
They have a very miserable life.
It's okay at home.
There was absolutely no chance for them to be mentored after graduation.
You either have to lower yourself to become a director or change careers.
I heard that Wang Yihan's studio is hiring.
There's a huge competition for the assistant director position.
In the end, he chose Lu Yang from Beijing Film Academy.
I graduated with a master's degree in directing from Beijing Film Academy last year.
He stayed on at the university after graduation to work in the office.
Then I couldn't sit still.
He secretly came out to film this year.
He was forced to resign due to violations of regulations.
He's about to go home and live off his parents.
I ended up accidentally seeing a job posting for Wang Yihan's studio.
Come quickly!
This person is extremely talented.
Wang Yihan took notice of him as soon as she saw his resume.
As it turned out, I saw it during the interview.
Wow, it really is Lu Yang, the director who later made the "Brotherhood of Blades" series.
What are we waiting for?
We should bring them under our control immediately.
Right after the contract was signed, he was immediately assigned a task—casting.
Wang Yihan then began to consider casting three important supporting roles.
The order of importance is:
1. Xiao Xiao – The third female lead, the supporting character with the most screen time.
The female lead Zhao Mosheng's best friend.
Second: Lu Yuanfeng – Male supporting character, a sunny photographer, and the official love interest of Xiao Xiao (the third female lead).
Third: Ying Hui – the second male lead, a business tycoon, and Zhao Mosheng's 'ex-husband'.
Lu Yuanfeng, the male supporting character, was the first one cast.
No doubt about it, I'll arrange it for my good brother Su Xing.
It was just a phone call.
Upon hearing the good news, he excitedly ran over to ask for the script.
I took the script and left immediately, without even having time for a meal.
Wang Yihan asked the reason, puzzled.
He said, "Since you trust me so much, I can't let you down. I've found out about a really good acting teacher, and I need to go and learn from him."
"Who is it? Don't get scammed." There are many training institutions outside the Beijing Film Academy, and many of them are just scammers posing as teachers from the Beijing Film Academy.
They specifically target art students.
"Hey, don't worry, it was recommended by an acquaintance, he's absolutely reliable. He's a performance teacher who just resigned from the Beijing Film Academy. By the way, his name is Zhang Songwen."
Oh, it was him.
That's fine.
Teaching acting.
My brother Qiang is reliable.
"Okay, go ahead then!" Wang Yihan patted his shoulder.
After seeing Su Xing off.
Wang Yihan put a checkmark under Lu Yuanfeng's name.
There are two left.
Who should I choose?
The third female lead isn't hard to find; you can easily pick a suitable one from the Beijing Film Academy.
The second male lead is in a rather difficult position.
We need an actor who is a handsome older man.
Actors like this are quite rare.
Wu Xiubo is acceptable.
But... never mind.
Sister Hua does have some suitable candidates under her management.
Tong Dawei, Chen Daoming...
But what level of fame do they have?
He definitely wouldn't want to play the second male lead.
It's still an idol drama.
But let's call her and ask first.
What if?
All right...
There's no such thing as a "what if".
Sister Hua clearly refused on their behalf over the phone.
However, they did recommend someone to him.
Yu Hewei.
hiss! ~
Me, Liu Bei?
I called them with great joy to ask.
They politely declined.
The reason is quite compelling: they are preparing to film a new Three Kingdoms movie.
this...
We can't expect Liu Bei to abandon his imperial status and make an idol drama, can we?
Alright, another suitable candidate has to be eliminated.
There aren't many handsome, mature male actors in the entertainment industry who can give him a choice.
So he had no choice but to cast a wide net.
Please ask your friends in the industry to help spread the word.
result...
Liu Heping gave him a surprise.
Tan Kai.
The actor who played Gao Hanwen in the TV series "Da Ming Dynasty 1566".
He is also the actor who played Ying Hui in the historical drama "My Sunshine".
"Holy crap! All my previous efforts were for nothing!" Wang Yihan slapped his head.
Why didn't I think of him at first?
This guy is a professional at playing domineering CEOs.
Second male lead, all done!
Only one female supporting role is left.
We'll have to ask Teacher Huang for help now.
"Hello! Teacher Huang? This is Wang Yihan. I need your help with something..."
"Yes, the show is still missing a third female lead, and she needs to audition at the school."
"Okay, you're free this afternoon, right?"
"Okay, thank you for your help."
hang up the phone.
Wang Yihan called over assistant director Lu Yang.
"Boss, did you call me for something?"
Wang Yihan closed her laptop and stood up: "Let's go to your hometown, Beijing Film Academy."
"Is it casting? I know all the juniors and seniors in the acting department." Lu Yang became excited instantly.
Wang Yihan turned around, "You're happy?"
Lu Yang smiled sheepishly: "Who wouldn't want to go back to their alma mater after graduation and show off in front of the younger students? Boss, don't you want to too?"
Wang Yihan: "..."
He's just speaking the absolute truth!
However, I love listening to it!
