Entertainment From Divorce

For nearly half an hour, Liu Qian remained immersed in the script, gaining a deeper understanding of the character of Silence. She felt sympathy for what happened to this character, and she gradually became involved in the role.

Out of professional habit, Liu Qian was imagining her actions and expressions in her mind while reading the script.

Time passed unconsciously, and Tan Yue did not disturb him and concentrated on his work.

After all, she was still in the office, so it was impossible for Liu Qian to ponder the plot over and over again. She first had a general understanding of the overall plot and a preliminary grasp of the characters' personality traits.

"Mr. Tan, I've finished reading the script."

The roles are different, and of course the scripts in everyone's hands will be very different.

Just like Liu Qian is going to play the role of 'Shen Mo', the scripts in her hands are all scenes related to 'Shen Mo'.

"Try a scene?"

"No problem." Liu Qian nodded.

Although the time is relatively short, it is not a big problem for her as she is already an experienced actress.

Tan Yue flipped through the script, pointed to a fragment and said, "That's it. You need to prepare for a while."

"good."

Liu Qian read the script carefully again. The difference from last time was that this time she stood up and made some body movements according to the content of the script, and frowned and thought from time to time.

Since there is a trial, all details must be done.

If you want to perform a scene well, you need not only body movements, but also facial expressions.

Tan Yue finished his work here and looked up at Liu Qian who was thinking about the plot.

Liu Qian just put down the script: "I'm ready."

"Let's get started." Tan Yue was looking forward to this. How much did Liu Qian master this role in such a short period of time?

At the shooting scene, it is easy for people to ignore Ma Guoliang's presence.

However, as a director, Tan Yue needs to control the overall situation and know the status of each actor well.

Especially Liu Qian, who has experienced the baptism of "The Truman Show" and "Forrest Gump", and her acting skills have been improving. Although there is still a gap compared with Ma Guoliang, his acting skills are definitely considered superior to the entire actor circle.

Liu Qian took a deep breath to adjust herself and get herself into the role, and the audition began.

Tan Yue watched carefully, his heart filled with admiration for Liu Qian.

My acting skills have improved a lot! And it's improved compared to when filming "Forrest Gump".

Under the influence of Ma Guoliang, Liu Qian likes to study acting skills with some books when she is not filming. She also asks Ma Guoliang for advice from time to time.

He is already an experienced actor, so the audition does not take long. As long as he can perform the role, he will pass the audition.

After the performance, Liu Qian asked expectantly: "Mr. Tan, how was my scene?"

Tan Yue nodded and said: "Very good! I haven't seen progress in a while. Studying with Teacher Ma is a very wise decision."

"Teacher Ma is now a role model for all actors to learn from. With such good resources around us, we must make good use of them."

Tan Yue smiled. As Liu Qian said, many actors in the company often come to Ma Guoliang for advice.

Tan Yue returned to the topic: "The audition passed, and the role of Shen Mo is now yours."

"Thank you Mr. Tan!"

"Go back and prepare. I'll let you know when the boot time is decided."

Liu Qian left the office excitedly holding the script.

…

The next day, early in the morning.

Qian Tao came to the president's office with a folder and knocked lightly on the door.

"Come in." Tan Yue's voice came from the office.

Qian Tao opened the door and went in: "Mr. Tan, this is the cast list of "The Long Season". Take a look."

TV series are short in length and require relatively few actors, making them relatively easy to select.

The story of this drama takes place in the Northeast, so when selecting actors, Qian Tao mainly focused on actors from the Northeast.

After constant searches, inquiries, and comparisons, the list that Tan Yue was looking at was found.

During the process of selecting actors, the role of Gong Biao gave him a headache, but he did not expect to receive a call from Tan Yue suddenly. There was already a suitable candidate for the role, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Tan Yue looked at the big list and saw a few familiar names, artists under the company.

Some actors are still in an awkward position. Their acting skills are good and they have left an impression in the audience's mind, but it is difficult for them to serve as the protagonist of a drama.

To put it simply, it is still unable to support a drama on its own.

This requires a process of continuous accumulation and continuous enrichment of one's acting skills.

Especially hit dramas are very prone to actors like this.

Currently, there are many such artists under the Bright Company, and they need to go through a lot of scripts to hone their skills.

After reading the list, Tan Yue's eyes were fixed on 'Ma Desheng'.

‘Ma Desheng’ also has a lot of roles in the play. He is considered the third male lead in the play, and his acting skills are also very high.

Tan Yue frowned and thought seriously, feeling that the actor on the list needed to be considered again.

Qian Tao suddenly became nervous and asked tentatively: "Which actor is not suitable?"

"Well, Ma Desheng is also a very important character. I think this actor is a bit interesting. I have never felt that way about him. Let me think about which actor is more suitable."

The office became quiet, and Qian Tao was not idle either. He was also brainstorming to find the right person.

Tan Yue rubbed his temples and suddenly said, "I think maybe Jiao Cheng can give it a try."

Of course, Jiao Cheng's acting skills are not to be underestimated. This role shouldn't be too difficult for him.

When Qian Tao was choosing actors for "Ma Desheng", he also considered Jiao Cheng, but since he was not from the Northeast, he didn't think much about it. Now that he thinks about it, he still needs to think more about it.

"There are no problems with the other actors. Leave Jiao Cheng's affairs to me. You can go back first."

"OK."

After Qian Tao left, Tan Yue took his mobile phone to the window and called Jiao Cheng.

More than ten seconds later, Jiao Cheng's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Mr. Tan."

"Teacher Jiao, I'm going to film a TV series here. There is a role in it. I think you are quite suitable. When will you have time to come over and try it out?" Tan Yue knew that Jiao Cheng had been filming in other places recently and wanted to find someone. When he is free.

"That's great, I have time now." Jiao Cheng's voice was full of excitement.

His play had just ended and he was planning to take a break. Now Tan Yue's play was more important, so he agreed without thinking.

"Haha, okay, then come over and try out a scene at this time."

"I'll go back right away."

Tan Yue said "hmm", hung up the phone, and stood by the window to rest for a while.

…

afternoon.

Tan Yue was immersed in looking at the new documents when he suddenly heard a knock on the door and temporarily put down his work: "Come in."

Chen Ye opened the door and said, "Mr. Tan, Teacher Jiao Cheng is here."

"So fast!" Tan Yue put the document aside: "Let him come in."

"Mr. Tan." Jiao Cheng sat opposite Tan Yue.

"Teacher Jiao, we haven't seen each other for a while, right?"

Jiao Cheng thought for a moment: "Since I took the role, I have been filming outside and haven't returned to the company for five months."

While the two were chatting, Chen Ye gave them two cups of tea.

Tan Yue continued: "Has the filming of that drama been completed?"

Jiao Cheng is the male protagonist in the play. If you have time to come over now, it is most likely that the film has been completed.

"It was finished two days ago, and we reshot some footage yesterday."

"We are so pressed for time, do you want to take a break?"

Jiao Cheng immediately said: "I have no problem. Acting is more important than rest. Besides, it is also a kind of rest when you are familiar with the script. I am confident that I can adjust myself well before filming starts and I will never skip the scene."

Tan Yueqing said "hmm", took out the script, character biographies and story outline of "The Long Season" from the folder, and introduced: "This is a relatively short TV series called "The Long Season". It’s a suspense drama. Your character’s name is Ma Desheng, and he is the third male lead in the drama.”

Jiao Cheng took over the script, and he was very interested in it no matter which male character it was, as long as it was a drama about Tan Yue.

"Who is the director of this drama? Is it Director Lin?"

In recent years, the TV series scripts written by Tan Yue were all shot by Lin Qingye, so Jiao Cheng subconsciously thought that Lin Qingye was the director.

"I will film this drama."

"Ah!?" Lin Qingye was obviously a little surprised.

Tan Yue said with a smile: "I have been filming movies, and I want to film a TV series to change my mood."

Jiao Cheng's heart was filled with emotion: Others turned into film directors and wished they could make movies every day, but Mr. Tan was really different from others. After feeling the emotion, I felt very excited. I originally had great confidence in the script, but now I am even more confident.

Tan Yue took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry about these things. You read the script first, and I will tell you the general plot."

Following Tan Yue's introduction, Jiao Cheng had a preliminary understanding of "The Long Season".

"This is a very interesting script." Jiao Cheng directly expressed his feelings. "The Long Season" not only has the tension and excitement of a suspense drama, but also the relaxation and comedy of a family drama. It can combine these two The genres are perfectly combined, and the screenwriting skills are getting deeper and deeper.

"Look at the biographies and let me tell you about the character Ma Desheng."

Jiao Cheng opened the character biography. When he was familiar with the script, Jiao Cheng knew that "Ma Desheng" was a retired criminal policeman.

Tan Yue introduced: "Ma Desheng was once a respected criminal police captain. He had been working hard to find out the truth about the corpse case."

"After retiring, he became the dance king of the Senior College. Although he had taken off his police uniform, Ma Desheng never forgot the case. When Wang Xiang asked him for help, he agreed without hesitation."

"Although he has retired for many years, Ma Desheng still remains highly alert to the case during the process of tracking down the driver of the branded car."

Tan Yue introduced this way to let Jiao Cheng know Ma Desheng's character.

After some explanations and his own understanding, Jiao Cheng had a comprehensive understanding of the character of 'Ma Desheng'.

Then Tan Yue found a scene and asked Jiao Cheng to prepare for the audition later.

Jiao Cheng borrowed a pen and sat on the sofa to study the script alone.

This is his personal habit. Whenever he reads a script, he will write something on it to help him understand the characters better.

What's more, this is still a trial show, so some content needs to be filled in.

Time passed by, and the blank spaces of a short plot were filled with words.

Jiao Cheng replayed it from beginning to end in his mind so that he could have a clear mind during the audition.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

"Mr. Tan, I'm ready. Let's try out the show."

"OK."

Tan Yue just took a glass of water, took the cup and sat down on the independent sofa in front of the coffee table.

Jiao Cheng put the script aside, stood up, adjusted his posture, and entered the role to start the audition.

As a veteran actor, this role is naturally a no-brainer. This scene is a scene after 'Ma Desheng' reached old age, and he is still relatively experienced in this aspect.

When he played the director in "The Truman Show", he went out of his way to get to know the elderly.

Although the two characters are completely different, they still have similarities. Under Jiao Cheng's completely devoted performance, "Ma Desheng" appeared in front of Tan Yue.

"Not bad!" Tan Yue praised and clapped.

Although there is still a long way to go compared to Ma Guoliang, it is still quite good.

"It seems that my idea is correct." Tan Yue said: "This role will be played by you, Teacher Jiao."

Jiao Cheng said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Tan!"

As long as it is Tan Yue's drama, it will be extremely popular during the broadcast. What's more, this "The Long Season" is Tan Yue's long-lost TV drama, and it will definitely arouse heated discussions on the entire Internet once again.

Jiao Cheng also has great expectations for this drama. The plot is compact and not verbose, but also full of ups and downs, which is very suitable for the audience's taste.

The important things have been resolved, and the two started chatting while drinking tea.

"Can you dance Latin dance?"

The Latin dance Tan Yue mentioned was a dance that Ma Desheng learned after retiring.

When it was broadcast on Earth, this plot was also a famous scene in the show and was imitated by many netizens.

Jiao Cheng shook his head: "I really haven't learned this before. I'm thinking about finding a Latin dance teacher to learn more about it."

Tan Yue also had the same idea. For something professional like this, it would be best to find a teacher to learn it.

"The company also has professional Latin dance teachers, you can go and find them."

Many of the company's artists are professional dancers.

"Okay." Jiao Cheng sipped the tea and said, "I didn't expect to master another skill."

For an experienced actor like Jiao Cheng, as long as the plot requires it, he will do it himself and will not use a substitute. When facing some special skills, I will think about it carefully before turning on the computer. When it comes to skills like Latin dance, it can only be learned.

Half an hour later, Jiao Cheng hurriedly left the office. The start-up time has not yet been determined, but he will not wait too long. During the next period of time, he will have a heavy task. He not only has to study the script, but also practice Latin dance.
