China Entertainment's performance is king

Longcheng, Kempinski Hotel.

"Does this count as a return home in glory?" Shen Lang said to Liu Xiaojing who was sitting next to him.

He returned to his hometown after winning the Shanghai International Film Festival. The audition for "Zhu Xian" officially began, and he was coming back to take charge. The director really thought that he only had to take care of the filming. Although many roles were decided by him, this procedure could not be omitted.

This is a fairy tale drama, and the styling is different from modern costumes. He could not participate much in "Sewing Machine Band" because there was the original version. The characters in it were basically replicas. Modern costumes were fine when they were in normal times. "Zhu Xian" was different.

Even if he thought many people were suitable for the roles and had feelings, he had to see it with his own eyes. First, see if the styling was suitable. Some people were good-looking, but they looked awkward in ancient costumes. If they were not suitable, they could be adjusted. If they were not suitable during filming, it would be troublesome.

This is the normal state of preparation for a movie. With an investment of hundreds of millions, every link must be carefully considered. Shen Lang didn't care before, but he just relied on the system.

Although he will also invest points in "Zhu Xian" and make a steady profit, he respects his feelings. He is not just making money, and he does not make bad movies just for the sake of making bad movies. At the beginning, it was indeed for points. He also wanted opportunities like "Bianqu Zao" because he could be the protagonist.

But now, he can be said to be one of those people standing at the top of the film and television industry, and there is no shortage of scripts.

"Big Red Envelope" was also a work shot before he became famous. Of course, he also likes such family-related, not so earth-shattering comedy works, such as "The Big Winner".

As for why it is normal to return to his hometown, this is not just an audition, but also a promotion. Except for Shen Lang, no one believes that a movie can earn back the 1 billion and continued investment in the amusement park. This audition is also to promote the "Zhu Xian" film and television city.

Liu Xiaojing is sitting here as a producer, and cooperates with Shen Lang. The requirements for producers are not that high. What about finding ways to invest and dealing with publicity and distribution issues does not exist with Shen Lang.

There are also things like matching shooting locations. We will shoot in our hometown. The location is our own, so we will definitely cooperate all the way.

He will invest himself. As long as there is someone to control the expenditure and not be cheated, it will be fine. Liu Xiaojing is also very capable. She has brought over the business set, accounting and auditing.

In addition to her, there is Xiaotao, who handles some specific work. Liu Xiaojing has other things to do and cannot keep an eye on, such as matching some implants.

As for Chen Zhixi, there is still no cooperation this time, not because of "Youth 2". For Chen Zhixi, although she is also one of the producers, her importance is really not that strong.

Okay, the main reason is that Liu Xiaojing appeared this time, and Chen Zhixi is not that important. From the beginning of the preparation, it was Liu Xiaojing who did it. Buying scripts and repairing the location are originally the work of the producer.

This time, the invitation came naturally, and Liu Xiaojing, the producer, became stable. It was not because she had a good relationship with Shen Lang. In Longcheng, her ability was not comparable to Chen Zhixi. I really thought that with so much investment, she was still the same as an ordinary person.

"Well, this township is a bit broad. If you want to be more specific and want to return home in glory, there are a lot of people in our county who want it." Liu Xiaojing said with a smile.

"Stop, let's start now." Shen Lang stretched out his hand to stop him. He knew what Liu Xiaojing wanted to say later. He didn't like to attend drinking parties.

In addition to the two of them, Cai Yinong was also present. The boss of Tangren came to be the casting director in person.

After all, he wanted to use some actors from the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" series. Although he could find a way to sign them himself, why not use the easy way?

As for why Cai Yinong was willing to be the casting director, it was even more normal. This is a movie, and it must be an opportunity. At the very least, some artists from Tangren can be squeezed in a little bit. The protagonist Shen Lang is set, and the minor supporting roles don't mind.

There are also several video recorders on the scene. This is the audition. Outside the hotel, it is already surrounded by fans and onlookers. The crew has called the police and has to evacuate. Shen Lang goes home, which has this influence.

…

“Hello, director. My name is Guan Xiaotong. I have acted in “The Big Winner”… This time I want to try out for the role of Tian Ling’er.” The first woman who came in surprised Shen Lang a little, but it was only a little surprise. If she came to him, he would know that he would not be able to make a living as a director. He was just curious and didn’t even say anything when Guan Xiaotong came.

Mainly because he remembered that he did not send an audition invitation to Guan Xiaotong. She was qualified, not because Shen Lang did not want to cooperate, but because her age was awkward. She was too old to play Xiaohuan and too young to play other roles. She would not play other supporting roles.

However, he could imagine auditioning for Tian Ling’er. The “Zhu Xian” crew had not yet completely decided on this role, which was the most tempting. Otherwise, it would not have attracted a lot of big names.

“I don’t care. I must be with Senior Brother Qi Hao…” Shen Lang, who was acting opposite Guan Xiaotong, felt very painful. If he hadn’t given her face, he would have called a halt long ago.

Tian Ling'er does have the character of a young lady, but Guan Xiaotong probably plays the role of the national daughter too many times, so she can play the role of a willful and capricious one, but it doesn't feel right.

"Okay, very good." Xiaotao began her routine work, which was rarely done on the spot.

"Thank you." Guan Xiaotong glanced at Shen Lang and suddenly felt a little moved. Shen Lang winked at him, this damn charm.

Shen Lang definitely didn't want to have anything happen with Guan Xiaotong. Oh, the seal was gone, it was fine, but at least, at this moment, he was just saying hello to the gossip girl.

Guan Xiaotong came here by herself this time. She actually wanted this role very much. This is a movie, and Shen Lang and Liu Tianxian are working together. It must be tempting.

Then, Shen Lang found that he still underestimated Tian Ling'er's temptation. In the next few days, Wang Ou, Tong Yao, and Zhang Xinyi all came. Yuan Hong came in together. Shen Lang knew this. In fact, Shen Lang only invited Yuan Hong.

There are also some people who make Shen Lang embarrassed. Mao Xiaotong, Tan Songyong, and Liu Mengmeng are all ex-girlfriends. Of course, Shen Lang also knows that they can come because he sent the invitation.

There are also Jiaxing Gang, Huang Mengying, Reba, and familiar faces from "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". However, except for Zhang Binbin who can be directly confirmed, the others have to wait for news.

Needless to say, the Tangren Gang is led by Na Zha. She came here just to show her support. She knows that her role is not now, she is Xiao Huan when she grows up.

As for Xiao Huan when she was young, it has also been decided, Amy, the little girl in "Sewing Machine Band".

Yao Mei, Hu Bingqing and others have also come, and Han Dongjun, who is the main supporter, has not been spared. However, there is really nothing in the Tangren Gang that Shen Lang likes now, anyway, Hu Ge and Liu Shishi are both there.
