Chapter 447 The Next Rookie King
Xiong Caiwei and the other two female artists have become well-known in Hong Kong and Taiwan after the two films of "Police Story". With the support of the third film, the three of them have become so popular that they can stand on their own and have some appeal at the box office.
After the three young actresses are promoted, their future development depends on their own potential, and how far they can go also depends on themselves.
As the boss, Hu Xiaoxiao has to consider continuing to support new people to take over.
Hu Xiaoxiao has not forgotten her experience in the film industry. She has always wanted to provide female artists with a fair and just environment, so that female artists can have more say in the film industry instead of just being a vase.
Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't make decisions about other companies, but at Shengshi Entertainment, she hoped to give female artists more room for development. She wasn't worried about the problem of too many people supporting too few jobs, because she was constantly expanding the market. If Hong Kong wasn't enough, there were still Taiwan, Asia, and other places. Moreover, the mainland expansion was almost complete, representing an extremely vast market.
Considering the mainland market, Hu Xiaoxiao selected a newly signed female artist from the mainland. This female artist has excellent qualifications. Not only has she studied dance, she also has an excellent figure and appearance. In terms of acting, her acting teacher scored her among the top of her peers.
Hu Xiaoxiao decided to promote her as the next Rookie of the Year and even set a role for her.
At the Baogang Jewelry Exhibition, there is a white model named Arya who plays a weak guard who is robbed on the road. This female thief Arya is good-looking and good at fighting. The role is very suitable for promoting newcomers.
Hu Xiaoxiao told the screenwriter Liang Jiafeng about the female thief Arya and her experience fighting with Arya, which provided Liang Jiafeng with more inspiration to create a new character.
Sure enough, after listening to it, Liang Jiafeng was inspired.
"This character, based on Arya, can have more screen time. She starts out as a cute and harmless character, then later on, she'll be walking in a jewelry show, and during the show, some plot is set up to steal... the ring. Yes! It's adapted to make her the one who stole Jingdi's jewelry ring, and the ring is set to be stolen during the show. Then, Sister Xiao's real encounter with her is placed at the end. After the jewelry show, they track her down and discover that this seemingly harmless model is also one of the hidden bosses..."
As for the setting of the male protagonist, Liang Jiafeng set him as the general manager of a jewelry company based on Quanfu Jewelry. He was set as the son of the chairman of the jewelry company, responsible for the jewelry exhibition and the person in charge of the jewelry exhibition.
The image of a tall, wealthy, handsome, and elegant male star has been gaining popularity in the Hong Kong film industry in recent years. Liang Jiafeng, building on the role played by the male protagonist in Hu Xiaoxiao's films, continues to present the male protagonist as a vase in the film. In other words, Hu Xiaoxiao continues to be the cool one, while the male protagonist continues to be the beautiful one.
For other thief roles, Liang Jiafeng asked Hu Xiaoxiao to decide on the actors first, and he then wrote the roles based on the already decided actors.
Among the thieves at the International Jewelry Show, several are on international wanted lists, and others have been wanted in several countries, so a wealth of information can be found about them. With so much information on thieves, there's a wealth of resources to draw from. Liang Jiafeng has no shortage of material, only actors who can play the role well. He can find information about thieves with the right acting and fighting skills, and then write them into a minor or major boss.
Hu Xiaoxiao agreed with Liang Jiafeng's opinion and said, "When recruiting actors, you and the director interview the actors together. You have some decision-making power on which one you think is suitable."
Seeing that Hu Xiaoxiao valued and supported him so much, Liang Jiafeng smiled brightly and said, "I will definitely be there and do my best to select the most suitable actors for this movie and create the most exciting script."
"I have always approved of your scripts. If you need anything during the creation process, just tell the company and we will do our best to cooperate with you." Hu Xiaoxiao has always been very generous in treating talents, and he trusts people when he employs them, and will not employ people if he doesn't trust them.
With his boss placing such high regard on him, Liang Jiafeng naturally considers his boss's best interests. He said, "When creating a character, I first look at the artists in my company. If there's a suitable image, I'll create it based on the image of my own artists. When casting, I also prioritize my own artists, especially for the main cast. I'll prioritize my own artists, and only if I can't find one will I consider artists from other companies."
Hu Xiaoxiao praised and said, "I'll let the HR department know, and whenever they send me artist information, I'll give you a copy as well."
To keep abreast of the company's artists, the Human Resources Department regularly sends Hu Xiaoxiao information on new and outstanding artists. When Hu Xiaoxiao decides who to promote, he uses this information to identify potential candidates.
After the preliminary preparations were carried out smoothly, Shengshi Entertainment announced the launch of the third project of "Baogang Queen Flower" and also announced the recruitment of actors from the circle.
As soon as the news of recruiting actors came out, it became the most watched event in the entire circle.
Things are different now. Back when Shengshi Entertainment was first established, they had to find connections to help them make recommendations for their first film, "Bao Wang Hua," and the company begged for actors to take the role. Now, Shengshi Entertainment is unrivaled in the film industry, and Hu Xiaoxiao's "Ba Wang Hua" series is widely recognized as the industry's top resource—haven't you seen how all the actors who starred in the two "Ba Wang Hua" films became famous? Their status has skyrocketed.
Therefore, during the auditions, countless actors came to interview. In addition to newcomers hoping to achieve instant stardom, even some established actors had their eyes on this film. Not to mention the extras who had struggled in the industry for years but had never been able to break through. They saw the film "Police Story" as a great opportunity to change their fate.
The general manager of Jincan Film, which has a strategic partnership with Shengshi Entertainment, came to Shengshi in person, hoping to arrange for one or two Jincan actors to come in.
In a movie that Jin Can recently filmed, Shengshi Entertainment arranged for an artist to appear in it. In return, Shengshi Entertainment also gave Jin Can a role in the third part of "The Queen of Hong Kong".
With this cooperation, when the movie is released, Baoguang Cinema behind Jincan will give the movie the green light in terms of screening and take good care of it all the way.
Artists outside the company were desperately trying to get a role in the third installment of "The Queen of Treasures" (Baogang Baowanghua), even if it meant a mere cannon fodder. The artists within Shengshi Entertainment, who were close to the action, were even more excited.
Upon learning that the third installment of "The Queen of Hong Kong" is looking for roles for international thieves from the entire film industry, Yu Liang - he's here again!
