Chapter 68 Actors Please Take Your Place
Yu Xiaoshu went to bed on time at 10 o'clock, while Lin Feiyang read the script until 1 o'clock in the morning, because he was not reading the script of the first three episodes, but also the biography of Yan Liang.
Lin Feiyang likes this role very much, and he has played a policeman before, but it is obvious that the policeman Yan Liang is not an ordinary one.
Yama.
The fact that Yan Liang was given such a nickname by the Kanto gangsters was enough to show that he was good at both black and white.
What’s more important is that no matter how careless Yan Liang is, or even how eccentric he seems, he always has a firm commitment to justice in his heart.
This is commendable.
The so-called great and glorious characters in current criminal investigation themes sometimes make the audience feel unreal.
More importantly, it’s not very challenging to act.
Therefore, Lin Feiyang was delighted to see the prey, and he originally wanted to chat with Yu Xiaoshu all night long.
As a result, Yu Xiaoshu told Lin Feiyang at 9:50: "I'm going to sleep to stay healthy."
What about now? ?
This was Lin Feiyang's expression at the time.
The next day.
Yu Xiaoshu left home without waiting for Lin Feiyang to wake up.
"Teacher Yu."
As soon as I arrived at Baiqian Media, Zhang Ling came over hurriedly and said, "Everything you said has been arranged. Currently, the nine artists are waiting for you in the practice room."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded gently: "Then let's go to the practice room."
Baiqian Media has a dedicated artist practice room, which is mainly used by actors to train their voice, stage, appearance and performance, and by singers to practice singing.
Today, the nine artists were all a little excited and nervous in the practice room.
They and Baiqian Media share the same fate.
After learning that Yu Xiaoshu signed a contract with Baiqian Media, others were looking forward to it.
After all, who doesn’t want to star in a phenomenal drama like “I Am Yu Huanshui”?
They are just actors, not screenwriters like Li Ruhai, so naturally they don't have much ill will towards Yu Xiaoshu.
If I have any other thoughts, it is whether Yu Xiaoshu can really write another popular drama?
In addition to the 9 contracted artists, there are also Wang Bao and Liu Qianqian in the practice room.
"Mr. Wang, do you think this script is feasible?"
Liu Qianqian was not as optimistic as Wang Bao. She frowned and said, "Yu Xiaoshu has no experience in criminal investigations. Isn't it too... risky for the company to bet on him based on the first two episodes?"
Wang Bao shook his head and smiled, "Xiao Shu has no experience in criminal investigation, but I've read the script and it's fine. Besides, are we at Baiqian Media afraid of taking risks?"
Liu Qianqian's expression changed slightly. She felt that Wang Bao was being sarcastic.
Think about it, since Liu Qianqian founded Baiqian Media, every time she did she not take risks?
But has Liu Qianqian ever succeeded in any of her adventures?
The scripts written by the screenwriters I signed were all flops.
The singers that were signed also all failed.
The director who was signed failed.
The actor who was signed failed.
Liu Qianqian took a risk to sign the 13 artists previously signed by Baiqian Media. She felt that she had a unique vision, and then... you know.
Some people in the industry gave Liu Qianqian an alias, "General Who Always Loses", which sounds nice. Some people privately call Liu Qianqian "the spendthrift woman".
Some time ago, someone mocked Liu Qianqian, asking her to stop ruining the film and television industry, save some money for her parents, and stop squandering money.
In response, Liu Qianqian angrily responded: "Did I spend your money? Or did I eat your rice? I am willing to squander the family's wealth, is it your business?"
Some people even joked with a smile that Liu Qianqian had acquired a "prodigal rich man" system.
Otherwise, why would you just squander your money instead of making any?
Be it good-natured teasing or malicious attacks, Liu Qianqian really felt a little aggrieved.
She just didn't understand. She respected the screenwriter, trusted the director, didn't interfere with the filming, gave money and people when asked for them, but why did all the films fail?
Wrong road!
This is what Liu Qianqian talked about when she invited Wang Bao to take charge of Baiqian Media.
Another reason is that Liu Qianqian was too naive and innocent, so she was fooled.
So here comes the question.
The three screenwriters Li Ruhai, Fang Jin and Shangguan Fei fooled themselves.
How can Yu Xiaoshu prove that he is not a liar?
Even Liu Qianqian was wondering if Wang Bao and Yu Xiaoshu were also teaming up to trick her.
"Mr. Liu, what I mean is that risk and reward are directly proportional, but as I told you before, if the path is wrong, then the risk will naturally fail. But this time is different."
Wang Bao saw Liu Qianqian's expression suddenly dawning, and he hurriedly explained, "This time the script is really good. You've read it, too. Although there are only the first two episodes, you can get a general idea of it. The golden three episodes are for sure."
Liu Qianqian sighed inwardly.
It has come to this.
There is no point in saying more.
Since she chose to trust Wang Bao, then let it be.
If they lose again this year, Liu Qianqian will go home and inherit the family property.
The two were chatting aside, while the nine contracted artists were also chatting in low voices.
"Do you think Yu Xiaoshu can really write a good script?"
"It's hard to say. We'll have to call Teacher Yu later to prevent him from getting jealous of us."
"Yes, he rushed over and killed Li Ruhai and the other two. He is a werewolf."
"I hope we can have a good role, otherwise how can we make a name for ourselves?"
…
As an artist, there is no one who doesn’t want to be famous.
These nine contracted artists played important roles in the TV series and movies produced by Baiqian Media, but it was useless. The TV series and movies flopped and not many people remembered them.
Then, let alone their participation in other TV series.
I can't even get a special appointment.
So miserable.
So, today Wang Bao told them that the company will have a new play written by Yu Xiaoshu, and whether they have a chance depends on whether Yu Xiaoshu chooses them.
Simply put, the right to speak in this new play lies with Yu Xiaoshu.
Snap!
At this moment, the door of the practice room was pushed open, and everyone looked at the person who came in.
Yu Xiaoshu.
The one who decides their fate.
"Xiao Shu, here we come."
Wang Bao saw Yu Xiaoshu introduce Liu Qianqian to him first.
Liu Qianqian shook hands with Yu Xiaoshu, and then she said, "All the artists in our company are here. President Wang has shown you before. I'll leave this to you. You can choose."
"OK."
Yu Xiaoshu said with a smile that he had a good impression of Liu Qianqian.
I just like this kind of rich second generation who has a lot of money, does little trouble, and doesn't cause trouble or give orders.
When Yu Xiaoshu turned around, his face had returned to normal. He was not unfamiliar with the looks of these nine artists.
Ambition.
Every artist's eyes reveal the ambition to become famous.
very good.
An actor who doesn’t want to be famous is not a good actor.
The "popularity" here does not only refer to the popularity of Internet big data, but also the popularity of the desire for acting and the pursuit of works.
That kind of 'red' is the right way.
Yu Xiaoshu came in front of the nine artists, then he turned around and nodded slightly to Zhang Ling. Zhang Ling, who already had a tacit understanding, handed out the script.
"What you have in your hands is the new script I wrote. You don't have to read it now. You can read it later."
Yu Xiaoshu said as he looked at Wang Chao: "Are you from Guandong?"
"Teacher Yu, I'm from Kanto Ice City."
Wang Chao said hurriedly with a little respect.
"The role of Guo Yu in this play is yours. There is a short biography of Guo Yu in your script. You must grasp this character carefully..."
Yu Xiaoshu said to Wang Chao: "Don't let me down."
"Teacher Yu, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down."
Wang Chao said hurriedly, patting his chest.
"Prince One."
Yu Xiaoshu then looked at Wang Ziyi and said, "You will play the role of Huang Mao. Although this role doesn't have many scenes, you can still shine if you play it well."
Wang Ziyi also said: "Okay, Teacher Yu."
"You will play Zhu Fulai."
Yu Xiaoshu looked at the other man and said.
There was only one female artist among the 9 contracted artists, and Yu Xiaoshu gave her the role of Lin Qi.
As for the remaining 8 artists, they are basically Zhu Fulai, Zhang Bing, Xiao Li, Dongzi, Shao Hai, Guo Yu, Lao Jin and Huang Mao.
Among these roles, Guo Yu's role has more important scenes and requires higher acting skills.
Why choose Wang Chao?
This is because Wang Chao’s image is quite suitable.
Guo Yu made quite a lot of changes between the original novel and the web drama.
In the original novel, Guo Yu appeared wearing a pair of thick glasses, with a gloomy face and a thin body. It was obvious that he worked overtime 996. His occupation was not a trainee lawyer, but a programmer instead.
As for the online drama, it is different. In the online drama, Guo Yu is a trainee lawyer, and he appears to buy coffee for his seniors and clients. He is a typical workplace rookie who still maintains a bit of innocence.
However, regardless of the original novel or the web drama, Guo Yu has a cowardly side, and is actually very inferior in his bones.
Such people will explode after being suppressed for too long.
Firstly, Wang Chao is of the right age, and secondly, he has a good body shape. At the same time, Wang Chao looks pretty good, with bright eyes. He is a typical sunny guy, and such a person is even more interesting after turning evil.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Wang Chao can control this role.
"I want to make it clear in advance that the scripts and roles you have in your hands are just preliminary plans. You will have an audition in two days. If you don't pass the audition, then... I'm sorry."
Yu Xiaoshu said to the nine artists: "The opportunity is given to you. It's up to you to grasp it."
This sentence instantly put the nine artists under great pressure, and they picked up the script one by one and began to study it.
No one wants to fall behind.
The entertainment industry is like rowing against the current. If you don’t move forward, you will fall behind. If you stand still, you will fall behind.
"Xiao Shu, you scared them all."
After the nine artists left, Wang Bao smiled and said, "If you hadn't told me yesterday, I would have believed it."
Liu Qianqian was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"Mr. Liu, except for Guo Yu, the other eight roles don't require strong acting skills, so as long as they can act more than just staring, there will be basically no problem."
Yu Xiaoshu explained: "But if we don't give them a little pressure, then they won't know how to cherish the hard-earned roles."
After hearing Yu Xiaoshu's words, Liu Qianqian seemed to be thinking about something.
Wang Bao asked, "Is there anything else that needs to be prepared?"
"There are two more characters who are also the soul of this play."
Yu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "But I already have a candidate in mind, let's decide on the director first."
"Yes, yes, Xiaoshu, you didn't let me invite outside directors before. Do you already have a candidate in mind?"
Wang Bao then asked with concern: "As long as the director is talented, money is not a problem. Our President Liu has money."
Liu Qianqian praised him promptly: "Yes, I have money."
