Chapter 547: Timely Rain
This time, Zhang Chu returned to Yanjing and did not bring the cat, but left the matcha in Jiangcheng, and brought it back when he went back to record the show next time.
There was a dull smell in the room. Zhang Chu turned on the air, then called the housekeeping company to send someone to clean up the room, and while Matcha was no longer there, the flying cat hair and the toys were sorted out.
The weather in Yanjing in July and August is hot, and many people stay indoors and don’t want to go out at all. The plants outside are wilted by the sun.
"I have to call Jiang Hua to ask what to pay attention to in this audition, but don't make any jokes at that time!"
He doesn't know many people in the entertainment industry, and after all, only Jiang Hua, a big bearded man with a fragile and sensitive heart, can help.
As Xu Ji's deputy director, Jiang Hua must have a lot of insider information, and he took this opportunity to ask.
Zhang Chu sat in the study and called Jiang Hua.
"Hey? Who are you?"
"Uh, Teacher Jiang Hua, I'm Zhang Chu, you didn't save my phone number?"
Jiang Hua, who was at the club for a second, then realized, "Oh, it's you, I don't save your mobile number."
Such a straightforward answer really made Zhang Chu speechless. Didn’t he agree to exchange mobile phone numbers in the theater?
Only you can save your feelings, but this guy hasn't saved it!
In order to ask him for information, Zhang Chu decided to let him go, "Aren't you going to attend the audition for "Farewell My Concubine" tomorrow? Is there anything I need to prepare in advance?"
Jiang Hua said very directly: "No need to prepare, you don't have the right to make a decision anyway, so just use it as a mascot."
"It's easy for you to have no friends when you say this. I'm the investor and the original author. If I don't agree, can the protagonist decide?"
"That's right. Anyway, you're sitting on the judges' side. You're going to choose actors, not them."
It was impossible to continue chatting that day, and Zhang Chu felt that he had probably chosen the wrong person.
"Then you keep busy, I'll ask the rest of the people."
"See you tomorrow, beg you."
After Jiang Hua hung up the phone, he put his phone back into his pocket, but did not take it seriously.
At this time, the rest of the people in the box asked curiously: "Director Jiang, who are you calling? You will also participate in the audition for Farewell My Concubine."
"Don't worry, I'm not an actor, but Zhang Chu, the author of the novel."
Director Xu Ji is a person who is indifferent to the public relations and even takes this role for these agents, if they want to do so, find someone around Xu Ji. Obviously, Jiang Hua is the best way.
The content of the movie "Farewell My Concubine" has not been exposed, but with the theme, director and screenwriter lineup, the agency in the Chinese entertainment industry has been particularly jealous!
This is the most top resource. As long as you can play a role in a movie of this level, even if you are not the protagonist, it will be enough to leave a mark in the film industry.
Especially for those actors who want to develop further, this kind of art film is clearly good at winning awards. On the road to becoming a superstar, box office alone is not enough, and people have to recognize their acting skills.
Xu Ji's "Psychological Crime" filmed this year not only made a big hit at the box office, but the acting skills of the two starring actors were also well received. Many film critics and insiders believe that the two starring actors are likely to get the best actor, and the best supporting role is almost the only thing in the box. It won't surprise people if they open the actor's double yolk egg!
They are not very optimistic about the box office prospects of "Farewell My Concubine". The current film market is very impetuous and it is difficult for art films to achieve high box office.
If it is to pursue high box office, it is obvious that this kind of video would not be chosen.
"Zhang Chu?"
Lin Yongshen's eyes lit up after hearing this name. Why did he forget this important person?
It's the same audition. If your actors read the novel "Farewell My Concubine", they will definitely have targeted preparations, which are better than those who don't know anything.
Tomorrow is the audition, and now he stood up quietly and said, "You all drink first, I'll go to the bathroom."
After walking out of this private room, Lin Yongshen quickly picked up his cell phone and sent a text message to his assistant. He was worried that the sound of the phone would remind other competitors.
He typed: Zhouzhou, hurry up and find Zhang Chu or the publishing company's contact information, and be sure to get the original novel of "Farewell My Concubine". After getting it, you ask Cai Zelun to stay up late to read the content related to the character. If possible, you can tentatively ask about all the relationships of the character Zhang Chu, and change your mind and character habits!
Lin Yongshen only regrets that the time is too short. Not only does he have to get the novel in such a short time, he also has to go through the whole novel. He only hopes that the book will not have too many pages.
"Keep confidential, keep it a little bitch."
Director Xu Ji's studio did not announce the specific content, but only invited young actors around 30 to audition the show, and there were also a bunch of supporting roles from different age groups.
Five years ago, Lin Yongshen signed Cai Zelun and led the actor who graduated from Shanghai Theatre Academy to work hard from a youth idol drama to the film industry.
Although his acting skills are good, his resources are too poor. Most directors in the Beijing Circle will not consider such actors, so he deals with an associate director and wants to stuff Cai Zelun in.
The protagonist must be a luxury, but you can try it if it is an important supporting role!
Make money now, it is definitely to make money by filming TV series, but the style in the movie industry is higher.
There is a complete set of acting. When Lin Yongshen was just about to go out in the toilet, he heard someone coming in from the compartment next to him, whispering to someone else.
"Alu, I'll give you an important task now. Go and contact Zhang Chu, the author of "Farewell My Concubine", immediately. He will also attend tomorrow's audition. It would be the best if you can get Zhang Chu's support from there. If it really doesn't work, you can get the content of the novel. No matter what method you use, be sure to get this thing!"
Lin Yongshen frowned. It seemed that smart people were not just themselves.
Everyone is a human being. After being reminded by Jiang Hua and Zhang Chu of this phone call, they all used various means to seize the initiative.
Jiang Hua is the stone in the toilet, smelly and hard, and he can't get any useful information from his mouth.
Fortunately, Zhang Chu appeared at this time. As the original author of the novel, he may not have much say, but he must have the right to suggest!
If the original author supports an actor, the director and producer must also have to consider it carefully.
Zhang Chu is not a young author who can be exploited. If you can sell your works to BBC and Hollywood, you will never let go of the power in your hands!
"It seems that this is the breakthrough. I think about it, what's the point that can be used."
Chapter completed!
