Chapter 1063: Talking at cross purposes
Riemann didn’t know that there was such a big hidden benefit waiting for him. Instead, he followed the routine and read the audition script countless times before writing a brief biography for the character in it.
On the day of the audition, Li Man saw Lin Fan was also present, and couldn't help but sigh, how great it is to be in a good company. Not only does the boss personally tailor the script for the actors, but he also personally reviews the selection of supporting roles for the artists.
However, the more Lin Fan values this movie, the more Li Man wants to get this role.
Riemann, who got the test questions in advance, naturally had an excellent audition, but Lin Fan couldn't just choose Riemann because he had a lot of auditions scheduled for later.
No matter how satisfied he was with Li Man's audition, Lin Fan had to watch all the auditions before making a final decision.
But this did not prevent Lin Fan from showing kindness to Li Man: "Sister Man, I didn't expect that you would condescend to audition for our movie. It really surprised and delighted us."
"What do you mean by condescending? Who is the superior in front of Director Lin?" Li Man was also willing to show his sincerity to Lin Fan, "Director Lin, please stop making fun of me. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I'm really jealous of your movie. If I don't win the election, I don't know how long I have to wait for the next script similar to your movie.
The key is that the director, producer and investor don’t despise me! People like us who have been in the TV industry for too long are really worthless in the film industry.”
Lin Fan himself didn't have this feeling at all, because no matter whether it was a movie or a TV series, he shot and produced it himself. If he was lazy and didn't want to work, how could he be disliked by the producers and investors? So when he heard Li Man say this, Lin Fan was a little surprised: "Why, is there really a gap between the film and television circles?"
Lin Fan asked this question to Liang Wen, and it also made Li Man understand that Lin Fan did not mean to laugh at her, but he really didn't know much about this matter.
Liang Wen nodded and said, "Some filmmakers have such prejudices, especially against actresses like Li who have achieved high achievements in the television industry. This prejudice is more serious.
But not every director thinks this way, but Director Lin, you also know that in the Chinese film industry, producers and investors still speak louder. "
Only famous directors can have full control over the selection of actors, otherwise they have to make various compromises with producers and investors.
Even famous directors sometimes have to bow to reality.
Take Riemann for example. Some people firmly believe that she is not suitable for making movies, so the rest of the people will be more or less influenced by this view. When they think of Riemann, they will have an inherent impression in their minds: Riemann is not suitable for making movies.
Unless there is a role that must be played by Riemann, no one would take the risk of using her.
But in the entertainment industry, is there any role that only a certain person can play?
As time went by, Riemann found it increasingly difficult to get suitable movie scripts.
Lin Fan understood Liang Wen's implication, and also understood the real reality behind these frustrations: Li Man did not have enough capital to fight against the malice of the entertainment industry.
If this happened to him, Lin Fan would think it would not be a problem at all: "You think I am not suitable for making movies, then can't I just make them myself? Isn't that how "A Chinese Ghost Story" came about?"
Moreover, after a movie is released, the resources that one can control will naturally increase, and foreign capital will no longer be able to control oneself.
But what Lin Fan didn’t understand was that he was himself and Riemann was Riemann.
With the resources on Earth, I can make sure that the movie I invest in will not be a bad movie, let alone a flop. I just am not sure how big of a success this movie will be on Blue Planet.
But Riemann can't do that. She may try her best to get a chance, but the result is completely unknown. If the result is good, everyone is happy; but if the result is bad, then it will really be a loss.
Riemann couldn't afford the gamble and was ultimately bound by capital.
In fact, it is not just Riemann. Many other first-line artists also have to bow to reality due to capital, human relationships, and many other factors.
The best proof is that many first-line movie actors occasionally make a terrible movie.
There are very, very few artists who can control everything like Lin Fan, and he is the envy of everyone in the circle.
Lin Fan didn't promise anything to Li Man, and Li Man also understood that he couldn't just rely on his relationship with Lin Fan to get the role directly, and everything depended on the audition results.
On the contrary, Zhou Xiang was a little uneasy after knowing that Li Man also came to audition: "Has Sister Man come to audition? Oh my god, I'm so nervous! Sister Man's acting is so good. She took good care of me when I was in the crew of "Legend of White Snake". Oh, by the way, I was not even a female No. N at that time, and now I have to co-star in a movie with Sister Man!"
Lian Xiaoyu saw her mumbling there and couldn't help asking, "Xiangxiang, what's wrong with you?"
“I’m nervous!”
Lian Xiaoyu was speechless: "Why are you so nervous? Did you not memorize the script well? Or did you not understand the role well enough? Or do you think your acting skills are not up to par? Well, before the filming starts, I will hire a few professional acting teachers to help you hone your acting skills, so that you won't fail when the filming starts!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
It would be so embarrassing if the heroine failed to perform well. No way!
Lian Xiaoyu felt that she must not let this happen in front of her.
Although Zhou Xiang felt that his agent failed to understand his feelings and realized that he was about to face the nervousness of seniors in the industry, the final result was what he wanted.
This works too!
"Yes, yes, Sister Xiaoyu, before I join the crew, please help me hire a few more acting teachers to help me hone my acting skills. I'm afraid that after I join the crew, my level will be crushed by another female lead!"
That would be really unfair to the script that Brother Fan had tailored for him! This must not happen! After getting Zhou Xiang's confirmation, Lian Xiaoyu immediately took out her mobile phone and began to contact the acting teachers who had cooperated with the Earthling Studio: "Is one enough? I think that not only the acting skills, but also the lines and the body shape need to be polished. How about three? What do you think, Xiangxiang?"
Zhou Xiang nodded hurriedly: "Three is good, then three! If it's not enough, we can add more later!"
"OK!"
The two women were talking at cross purposes and were saying completely different things, but in the end they were able to reach a perfect consensus and have a common goal. This is really something.
