Chapter 766: Leading Actor Selection
The next morning, Zhou Ye, who had worked hard last night, was still sleeping soundly in bed. The doorbell rang and woke her up.
She opened her sleepy eyes and slowly sat up from the bed.
She looked around and saw that she was the only one in the bed. Then she realized that Gu Wei had left early and went to the company.
The doorbell was still ringing. Zhou Ye rubbed her eyes and felt a little irritated.
"Who is it? It's so early in the morning."
She got out of bed, put on her slippers, walked to the entrance, first looked at the door, and then opened the door.
"Sister Meng, you came early enough, and you didn't even say hello to me in advance!"
Standing at the door was Meng Ziyi, who had played mahjong all night last night.
She changed her shoes after entering the door, walked in familiarly, and lay down on the sofa in the living room without any image.
"Is there anything to eat? I'm so hungry!"
Zhou Ye looked at Meng Ziyi helplessly with his arms folded, squatted down and took out a snack box from under the coffee table.
"See if there's anything you want to eat. There's leftovers from last night in the fridge. Do you want to heat them up?"
Meng Ziyi flipped through it, tore open a bag of bread, put a straw into the milk, and opened two snacks.
"I'll just eat this. It's too much trouble to heat up the food."
"Didn't you just come back from playing mahjong?"
"Yes, I just finished.
Didn't I say I'd come to see you yesterday, so I came right after I finished playing.
How's it, isn't it nice?"
Meng Ziyi said while eating.
"Hey, you don't know how good I was at the mahjong table last night. I was so good that I beat all three of them!
It's a pity that you didn't come."
"Why should I go?
Let you beat me?"
"Hehe, we have such a good relationship, how can I bear to do that? I definitely won't beat you." Meng Ziyi said with a smile.
"Huh? Is this your new bag?"
As the two chatted, Meng Ziyi suddenly saw the new LV bag on the coffee table.
She reached out and took it, a light blue women's croissant bag, with the tag still on it.
"This is LV's new product this year, it seems that this style was available at the fashion week at the beginning of the year.
It's still brand new, it's not given to you by someone else."
She looked up at Zhou Ye, with a gossipy look on her face.
"Is it given by the boy in your class who is chasing you?
Since you have already accepted the gift, are you going to give him a chance?"
Zhou Ye sat down next to Meng Ziyi and took the bag from her hand.
"What? I bought it myself when I was filming in Taiwan. What do you mean by giving him a chance?
I told you before that although there are boys chasing me in the class, I am not interested in them. They are just a bunch of brats."
Zhou Ye's mind turned quickly. She didn't want Sister Meng to know about what happened with the boss.
She knew that the two top girls in the company, Nazha and Zhang Tianai, had a close relationship with Gu Wei. Sister Meng was not someone who could hide things. If she told others, she would have a hard time staying in the company in the future.
Sister Meng didn't doubt it and looked at the bag in Zhou Ye's hand.
"This style and color are quite suitable for you."
Not long after, Meng Ziyi finished a small bag of bread in her hand, filled her stomach a little, and then hugged Zhou Ye beside her.
"Did I disturb your sleep by coming here?"
"Nonsense, I was sleeping just right and you woke me up!"
Zhou Ye replied unhappily.
Meng Ziyi smiled and hugged her.
"Then I will sleep with you, okay? I also need to make up for my sleep."
Then she pulled Zhou Ye to the bedroom.
Zhou Ye had no choice but to let her do whatever she wanted.
The two had a good relationship, lived close to each other, and were both alone in Beijing.
When they were not working, they would go shopping and eat together, and occasionally sleep together at night, sometimes at Zhou Ye's house, sometimes at Meng Ziyi's house.
"What's that smell?" Entering the bedroom, Meng Ziyi seemed to smell something.
Zhou Ye's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't respond. Instead, she took out a set of pajamas from the closet next to her and changed the subject.
"Take off your clothes and put on my pajamas!"
Meng Ziyi, who had played mahjong all night, was very sleepy at this time. After hearing Zhou Ye's words, she didn't care about the smell. She took off her clothes in a few seconds and lay down on the bed, pulling the quilt over herself.
Zhou Ye was relieved to see Meng Ziyi close her eyes and fall asleep.
She turned on the air conditioner and switched to ventilation mode, then climbed onto the bed and lay next to Meng Ziyi.
[Weiming Tianxia] Company.
Gu Wei was looking at the script of [Celebration of Yu Nian 2].
The original time and space [Celebration of Yu Nian] was produced by Tengxun Video and New Classics Media. When it was first filmed, it was not particularly favored by the platform and was only an A-level production.
This is not surprising. Zhang Ruoyun is not a traffic star. Although she has not lacked dramas to shoot after many years of debut, she is not considered a first-line star in the circle.
The fame of the novel "Joy of Life" in the online literature world is not the top one. Compared with the real top IPs such as "Ghost Blowing Light" and "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", the fame is far behind.
So when filming, not to mention the sequel, even the funds for the first part were not particularly sufficient.
Later, "Joy of Life" was unexpectedly popular after it was launched, and the platform made a lot of money. The actors in the play all reaped the dividends of the TV series.
Then, as investors, Tengxun and Xinli also began to prepare for the sequel.
It was only because of the actors' schedules, funding issues, the original author's opinions, the progress of the script creation, capital operation and the expectations of the producers that the second part was delayed for five years before it was released to the audience.
Nowadays, Gu Wei's version does not have these messy problems. "Qing Yu Nian" was the most valued top costume drama in the industry when it started filming.
And according to the earliest plan, filming of the second part will begin after the first part is aired online this year.
"Has the script of [Qing Yu Nian 2] been sent to director Sun Hao?"
Gu Wei asked Yang Liwen in front of him while looking at the script.
"I've already given it to you. Director Sun also asked the crew when they can start filming?"
“The second half of the year.
Next month I will join the team to film "Send You a Little Red Flower", and then "My Hometown and Me" and the film adaptation directed by Rao Xiaozhi.
I’ll probably have some free time after August.”
Yang Liwen nodded.
"I will communicate with Director Sun later and prepare according to this time."
After talking to Yang Liwen about [Qing Yu Nian 2], the other party reported to him some recent company affairs.
"According to your request, boss, the company has communicated with Blueberry Channel and they have agreed to make Tian Xiwei a regular guest in [Running Season 4] this year."
"Who are the guests at [Running Man] this year?"
"In addition to the three old people Li Chen, Baby, and Zheng Kai, four new people have been added this year: Sha Yi, Cai Xukun, Guo Qilin, and Tian Xiwei."
Gu Wei frowned.
"[Running Year] is going to be a big change this year. I remember there were a few new regular guests last year, but have they all been replaced this year?"
"Last year, the new guests were Zhu Yawen, Wang Yanlin, Huang Xuxi, and Song Yuqi. Perhaps because the program was not effective, the ratings of [Running Season 3] dropped sharply, so the program team changed several people."
Speaking of this, Yang Liwen hesitated.
"I heard that Song Yuqi was expected to continue participating in this year's season of [Running Man], but because we included Tian Xiwei and there were already two female guests, Song Yuqi had no choice but to leave."
Gu Wei understood that what Yang Liwen meant was that Xiaotian squeezed Song Yuqi away by relying on the company's connections and connections.
This is normal. This is how the entertainment industry is. Many times, resources have to be grabbed. You really can't survive in the entertainment industry without fighting for them.
Gu Wei has been like this all the way. Many of the dramas he has participated in are not necessarily his choice. Many artists are also looking at him when casting. It's just that Gu Wei is famous, has traffic, and money. Others Of course there is no way to argue with him.
Yang Liwen left the office after reporting her work, and Gu Wei looked down at some company reports.
After a while, Rao Xiaozhi knocked on the door and came in.
"Director Rao, long time no see, sit down~"
Gu Wei smiled and greeted.
"Mr. Gu, I have finished writing the adaptation script of [The Key to Luck]. I will come over today and show it to you."
Rao Xiaozhi walked to the opposite side of Gu Wei and handed over the script he was holding.
Gu Wei took it and opened it without any surprise.
After a while, he closed the script.
“Yes, Director Rao’s version has been successfully localized, and the story is very down-to-earth.
The Japanese version of the movie has a bit of a cold sense of humor, but the style of this script is more heartwarming, and I feel it should be more suitable for the tastes of domestic audiences. "
Gu Wei smiled and praised.
"Haha, Mr. Gu is overly praised."
Rao Xiaozhi is actually very satisfied with the script he adapted.
“Now that the script is finalized, the company’s filming crew is ready, the location can be shot in Hengdian, and casting is not difficult.
Mainly, Mr. Gu, when will you have a schedule this year? "
When Rao Xiaozhi discussed this movie with Gu Wei before, he proposed that he play the leading role, so naturally he would have to watch Gu Wei's time.
"I mentioned your movie when I was chatting with Manager Yang just now. I have already freed up the schedule from June to August. About two months for this movie should be enough, right?"
Rao Xiaozhi received Gu Wei's affirmative reply with a smile on his face.
"That's enough. A comedy movie without any big scenes can definitely be shot in two months."
Gu Wei nodded.
"Who are you planning to cast as the other protagonist in the film?"
"The Crowd" is about two male protagonists, one is a down-and-out young actor, and the other is a fake killer. The two accidentally exchange identities and lives, which triggers a series of ridiculous stories.
"I want to find Liu Dehua!"
Gu Wei touched his chin. Of course he knew that the original version was played by Andy Lau, but to be honest, the box office of the original version of "The Crowd" did not reach the heights expected, and Hua Zai was responsible.
Although Andy Lau has high national popularity and good popularity among the public, he has acted in too many bad movies, and his box office appeal is completely out of proportion to his celebrity status.
"Actually, I think Zhang Songwen from the company is also pretty good. I just finished a movie with him, and his acting skills are definitely the best in the industry.
Although I’m not very famous yet, this drama doesn’t require other actors to be very famous since I’m here.”
Although Gu Wei was making suggestions, he was the boss, so Rao Xiaozhi would naturally listen to what he said.
"I also know Teacher Zhang Songwen. Her image and acting skills are enough for this role.
It’s okay to let him act.
However, Mr. Gu, can Wan Qian play the role of "Li Xiang"? "
Gu Wei was a little surprised. "Li Xiang" was the official partner of the killer "Zhou Quan" in the movie, and she was considered the leading heroine in the movie.
"Does Director Rao think so highly of Wan Qian?"
"It's not that I'm optimistic. Wan Qian and I are old friends. When I made my first movie [Hello Crazy], she was the protagonist.
We are also considered old friends for many years.
It happened that this role suited her very well, so I thought about letting her play it. "
Rao Xiaozhi explained.
Gu Wei nodded and said with a smile: "No problem, let's decide on Wan Qian."
Now that Rao Xiaozhi has spoken, Gu Wei has to give him this face no matter what.
The two chatted for a while, and Rao Xiaozhi stood up to leave, but Gu Wei stopped him.
"It's almost noon, let's have dinner together later.
It just so happens that the literary director is also in the company, so the three of us will have a bite together at noon."
"Literary director?"
"The movie we shot together some time ago has been completed, and he is currently doing post-production work in the company."
"Okay, it just so happens that I haven't seen Wen Mu for a while."
After returning to Beijing at the end of February, Gu Wei has been dealing with some things in the company.
At the beginning of the new year, preparations for various tasks must begin. Although the general environment is not good, the various projects of [Wei Tianxia] have not been delayed and everything is proceeding normally.
The film industry is currently in a state of stagnation due to the freezing of downstream theaters, but YI sentiment does not delay the broadcast of TV series.
And because more people are staying at home, more people are watching dramas.
Since the beginning of the year, major TV stations and online platforms have launched many new dramas, but not many have achieved good results.
Popular dramas include Sun Li's "Settle Down", Ren Jialun and Tan Songyun's "Under the Brocade", Song Weirong and Song Qian's "The Next Stop Is Happiness", and Dilraba Dilraba's "Three Lives, Three Worlds, a Pillow Book".
After starring in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "The Legend of Mi Yue", Sun Li's status in the TV drama circle has become more and more consolidated. It is not surprising that her new drama has high ratings and good results.
Ren Jialun was the target of Huan Rui's support after Li Yifeng left. He became famous after "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" and "Legend of the White Snake". The hit of "Under the Brocade" made him completely popular.
Shuangsong CP's "The Next Stop Is Happiness" is worse than the other three TV series in various statistics, but the male supporting actor Wang Yaoqing and female supporting actor Yu Shuxin are unexpectedly lovable.
Wang Yaoqing has consolidated his role as a wealthy boss in his film and television dramas, Xin Xinzi is just starting out, and the eldest lady in Shanghai finally has a memorable role in the entertainment industry.
Reba's "Three Lives Three Worlds: The Pillow Book" is the sequel to the hit fairy tale drama "Three Lives Three Worlds: Ten Miles of Peach Blossom", and it has always been far ahead in the attention when it was released.
The TV series has ranked first on lists such as [Maoyan Drama Online Drama Popularity], [Guduo Drama Drama Popularity Index Ranking], [Lighthouse Popularity Ranking], and [Data Lion Online Drama New Media Hot List].
The number of online views exceeded 5 billion in the first month of its launch, making it the TV series with the best online broadcast data since the beginning of the new year.
However, this data is still far behind the previous film [Three Lives Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossom].
Moreover, [Pillow Book] was a hit but not a hit, with poor word-of-mouth ratings.
Many netizens complained about the shortcomings of the TV series, such as the plot changes, the actors' acting skills are not up to par, the plot is confusing and the supporting characters are added to the drama, and the screenwriters are not careful.
The costume and appearance of the heroine Reba are also a point of criticism.
She is obviously playing a role, but her appearance and condition in "Pillow Book" are much worse than in "Ten Miles of Peach Blossom".
