Chapter 473 I knew Cao was going to steal the camp
The first day of actor interviews lasted until nine o'clock in the evening. Lin Fan couldn't help but shout: "My head is full of audition clips, just like dozens of TV series playing in my head at the same time. I feel like I'm going to have schizophrenia!"
The sequelae of [Photographic Memory] are so terrifying. Once the brain contains too many things in a short period of time, Lin Fan feels like he is watching a TV series on a surveillance screen. Looking around, dozens or even hundreds of small screens are playing clips one by one.
It's simply fatal!
Liang Wen gloated: "It's better to make movies, there are fewer roles."
Lin Fan couldn't help but nod.
Hu Yuhua smiled and said, "Well, we haven't gained nothing today. Although the female lead hasn't been finalized yet, many supporting roles have been decided."
Yes, today's internal audition, there are many actors who are here to audition for supporting roles. These actors are also on the list of cooperation with Shanghai Film, but compared with the protagonists such as Li Man and Su Tong, they are more unknown.
As for the supporting roles, Lin Fan fully listened to the opinions of Shanghai Film Studio and assigned a large number of supporting roles to the actors they had been working with.
For example, Bai Fu and the other five ghosts, Wang Fengshan, the master of Xu Xian's medicine shop, the centipede demon and the toad demon who cause trouble everywhere, Jiu Ye and Second Lady, Zhang Yutang and his son, Black and White Impermanence... and so on, all of them can be named.
Of course, the main supporting roles, such as Xu Xian's sister Xu Jiaorong, brother-in-law Li Gongfu, daughter Bilian, Qi Baoshan, and Goddess of Mercy, have not been decided yet.
When Lin Fan watched "New White Snake" at the beginning, she was so impressed by the couple Xu Jiaorong and Li Gongfu, second only to White Snake and Green Snake. Especially Xu Jiaorong, her performance was so good and so popular that Lin Fan was tirelessly trying to find an actress with a similar appearance to play the role. If there was no one who looked similar, then at least she had to perform the feeling of the elder sister back then.
Not to mention the role of Guanyin, Lin Fan has always believed that Guanyin is the most unsurpassed role besides the White Snake! This is not a question of whether the performance is good or not, but this actor seems to be born for this role! Lin Fan and his group said as they packed up and left: "The actors should be decided as soon as possible, because in addition to participating in the script reading, the leading actors also need to adapt to the performance style of this play in advance. The first thing to do when joining the group is to conduct basic training in Huangmei Opera. They are not required to learn traditional drama in such a short time, but some charm must be grasped."
Hu Yuhua continued, "Besides this, it's better to do some singing training. I don't want to appear on the set and have the whole audience burst into laughter when it comes to singing!"
NG is also a loss for the crew.
Hu Yuhua could foresee that once Lin Fan's acting style appeared, laughter was inevitable. After all, apart from the musicals in India, there had never been a play in China where the actors started singing during the performance.
To be honest, if I didn't have confidence in Lin Fan's creative ability, if someone else came to Hu Yuhua and told her that they wanted to shoot a play where the actors had to sing and act at the same time, Hu Yuhua would have just kicked that person out!
Lin Fan readily agreed: "That's fine, I'll teach you the singing parts."
After leaving the conference building, everyone saw Liu Zhengyan waiting downstairs. Lin Fan saw a kind of sultry temperament of an old tree in spring from Liu Zhengyan's old face, which was so wrinkled from laughing that he had dense crow's feet.
"Teacher Liu!"
"They are all here. It's quite late today."
"I'm used to it. It's the same for everyone in this industry."
Lin Fan also said: "Teacher Liu, if you are free in the next two days, let's rehearse the concert songs first."
"Okay, when are you free, I'll go to your company to find you."
Liu Zhengyan greeted everyone, then turned to Hu Yuhua: "I'll pick you up after get off work."
With just one sentence, Hu Yuhua's face turned red with embarrassment, and the other people present looked at her in confusion.
Hu Yuhua pretended to be calm: "It just so happens that you produced the theme song for our martial arts drama before, and there are some follow-up matters that I need to communicate with you about."
Liu Zhengyan nodded quickly: "Okay, let's talk while we walk."
"Teacher Liu, take care. Sister Yuhua, take care!"
"You should go back and rest early too!"
The others watched Liu Zhengyan and Hu Yuhua gradually walk away, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Yuhua, the clouds have finally cleared and the moon is shining."
Lin Fan was surprised: "Everyone knows about this?"
Liang Wen couldn't help gossiping: "Their affairs are not a secret. I was also curious before. Liu Zhengyan never had a girlfriend, and never had any scandals. And Hu Yuhua didn't have a partner either. These two obviously have feelings for each other, but they just don't get together. Why is that?"
Lin Fan also gossiped: "Why?"
Liang Wen said solemnly: "Because of love!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lin Fan: "...Mr. Liang, you are also very naughty!"
…
On the other hand, Xia Shaozhang, who had finally finalized the overseas agency rights for Lin Fan's English songs with Galaxy Entertainment, Lin Fan and Yang Hongxia, finally left his daughter's home where he had stayed for several days, boarded a flight back to Europe, and returned to his home abroad, amidst his daughter's expectant eyes.
After finally returning home, Xia Shaozhang pushed open the door and was about to open his arms to welcome a warm hug and enjoy the joy of reunion with his beloved wife whom he had not seen for a long time. Then he saw his wife glance at him, then turned away and continued to make a phone call.
Xia Shaozhang: Hmm? What's going on? I've only been away for a few days, and my wife has changed her mind? Xia Yan's mother ignored Xia Shaozhang, and said to the person on the other end of the phone in a gentle voice: "You are a good cook. I know it when I watched the show. But if you come over here, how can I let you cook? Although my cooking skills are average, Yanyan's father's cooking skills are still good. Whatever you like to eat, I will let Yanyan's father cook it for you!"
"...Yeah! It's okay. Yanyan's dad loves cooking the most, so you two can have a good chat... When are you going to come over? I'll clean the room for you first... Okay, it's settled then!"
Xia Shaozhang felt something was wrong the more he listened: "Who are you calling?"
Xia Yan's mother hung up the phone and came over to help Xia Shaozhang take off his suit jacket, but the smile on her face revealed her mood at the moment: "I'm calling Yanyan."
"Isn't this right?" Xia Shaozhang didn't believe it. If he really called his daughter, would he need to call himself "Yanyan's dad"? Xia Yan's mother said casually, "Oh, it's like this. Yanyan was taking a shower and it was inconvenient for her to answer the phone. Lin Fan answered the phone. This was a rare opportunity, so I chatted with Lin Fan for a while. He said he would come over to promote his song in a while, so I invited him to come to my house..."
Xia Shaozhang's eyes suddenly lit up with two flames rising into the sky: "I knew this kid was staying at Yanyan's place! I'll fly back now, drag that kid out of Yanyan's house and kill him!"
