Huayu started by giving the system to female stars

Chapter 257 256. If I had known that "Sheep Star" was so popular, I shouldn't have rejected it in the first place...

"How's your dance practice going?"

While having dinner with Liu Tianxian at home, Wei Wu took the opportunity to pay attention.

Liu Tianxian covered his face in embarrassment and said:

"Ahem, I've almost memorized the movements, but I'm just not very skilled at it and it doesn't look very aesthetic."

Wei Wu smiled and reassured: "It doesn't matter, this is just a matter of time and effort. There are still more than half a year left, so take your time!"

"That can only be like this." Liu Tianxian suddenly changed the subject:

"By the way, director Guo Jinyu called me today and wanted me to participate in "Harbin at Night" and play the heroine Lu Qiuying."

Lu Qiuying is the daughter of Lu Qiyun, the richest man in Harbin. She is a thoracic surgeon who studied in Japan. It is rare for her to have the courage and wisdom of a new type of woman.

She has a crush on Wang Yimin, but at the same time she is violently pursued by Yuzhi Ichiro.

The female protagonist likes the male protagonist, and then the second male protagonist likes the female protagonist. It’s a classic love triangle!

In the original drama, this role was played by Li Xiaoran. Of course, Liu Tianxian can handle this kind of high-altitude flower with a good family background and good knowledge.

"You agreed?"

Liu Tianxian shook his head: "No, I told him to think about it for one night and then give him an answer tomorrow.

"Actually, I'm a little moved, but I still want to come back tonight and ask your opinion first. By the way, did you ask him to choose me as the heroine?"

Although Liu Tianxian has not watched the drama "Harbin at Night", she believes in Wei Wu's vision.

Guo Jinyu was the first TV drama director to be poached, so Wei Wu would not treat him badly.

Moreover, today is different from the past. In the past, when Shu culture was founded, there were only a few artists in total. Any projects would naturally be given priority to her.

But now there are 7 actresses in Shu culture! Even top players like Fan Bingbing and rising supernovas like Yang Mi.

The competition was much more intense than before.

Moreover, Wei Wu has already expressed his anger with her in advance. If he starts a new drama next, he will not frequently let her be the heroine, and will be more inclined to cultivate new people.

For front-line actors like her and Fan Bingbing who have already made a name for themselves, the company will try its best to help them obtain resources from outside.

Of course, if they can't receive suitable filming contracts from outside within a short period of time, the company will still give them cover.

In addition, Wei Wu has already told her that in his next few dramas, "Walking to the West", "Thailand" and "Latent", the heroine will be Fan Bingbing.

This is equivalent to a meeting ceremony for Fan Bingbing to join the Shu culture. Liu Tianxian even joked with Wei Wu at that time:

"What about my meeting gift?"

Wei Wu said confidently: "Didn't you already get all the greeting gifts? "Those Years", "Painted Skin", "Left Ear" and "Snow Leopard". Look at your greeting gifts, they are much richer than others!"

In short, the situation is different now. In this case, of course she can no longer be picky and picky.

If other directors in the company approached her with suitable projects, she would definitely be more inclined to agree first.

If you don't keep picking and choosing, people may not look for you next time.

In fact, this is fine, because Wei Wu's resources may no longer treat her as favorably as before.

Fortunately, the company has recently recruited a lot of directors, both for movies and TV series.

This shows that in the next few years, the company will open more and more new projects every year. As long as the cake gets bigger, of course everyone will be able to eat.

And she is still the boss's wife after all. As long as the company does not collapse, she will certainly not starve. Therefore, Liu Tianxian is not too worried about future resource issues.

Wei Wu smiled and said: "That's really not true. Guo Jinyu is also a senior director, he is not a novice like Xue Xiaolu, Lu Yang and others.

"So I have told him a long time ago that regarding casting and other matters, I completely delegate the power to him. He can choose whoever he likes and I will not interfere.

"But regarding the casting of this drama, he was angry with me.

"But he took the initiative to choose you as the heroine.

"I think the main reason why he chose you as the heroine, besides being suitable for the role, is because he is familiar with you! After all, we just worked together in "Snow Leopard"."

Wei Wu said that he would not intervene. This was different from the past but serious. It was no longer a mere statement.

After all, even if he is the boss, he still has to decide what to order.

For those new directors, Wei Wu can certainly give advice on casting and other aspects. Because Lu Yang, Xue Xiaolu and the others need Wei Wu's experience to correct mistakes in time.

But for senior directors like Guo Jinyu and Kong Shu, who have been in the industry for many years, have experience in directing film and television dramas alone, and have made certain achievements——

It would be inappropriate for Wei Wu to interfere too much, and it would only make them secretly dissatisfied and alienated.

Moreover, famous directors are less dependent on agencies than famous actors.

If they are unhappy here, they will naturally think of leaving.

Liu Tianxian couldn't help but be curious: "Now that he has given you the go-ahead in casting, can you tell me who the other roles are going to be?"

Wei Wu also introduced them one by one: "First of all, the male protagonist Wang Yimin, he is an underground party member, graduated from the Chinese Language Department of Peking University, and his official identity is the Chinese language teacher of Harbin No. 1 Middle School.

"He is a gentle and elegant teacher during the day, and a secret agent who can fly over eaves and walls at night. He is both intelligent and brave."

Wei Wu deliberately tested her when he said this:

"Who do you think is suitable for this role?"

Liu Tianxian said without hesitation:

"Jin Dong."

Wei Wu nodded slightly:

"Congratulations on your correct answer! Guo Jinyu thought so too!"

The role was played by Lu Yi in the original play. His temperament is suitable for this role, but his temperament is mainly too literary! He is just too creamy!

He looks more like a wise general, with outstanding wisdom and gentleness. But it is a little hard to imagine that he also has agile skills and superb martial arts.

Jin Dong is better. Although he is also gentle and elegant, his facial features are relatively tougher and sharper. Overall, it is easier to believe that he is a man who can do both literature and martial arts.

Liu Tianxian couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. She finally guessed it right once!

Wei Wu went on to say: "Let's talk about the second male lead of this drama, Yuzhi Ichiro. He is a Japanese sinologist and also a teacher at No. 1 Middle School. The father-son inheritance is deeply influenced by Chinese culture.

"Yuzhi Ichiro longs to do three things in China: one is to teach and educate people to cultivate talents for China; the second is to make friends with upright and kind Chinese people like Wang Yimin; the third is to achieve his love goal and marry Lu Qiuying. But the war shattered all his dreams.

"In the end, when his father Yuzhi Yuichi asked him to go to the front line to participate in the war, Yuzhi Ichiro could only choose to commit suicide, expressing his disgust for war with his renunciation of life.

"This role is actually not easy to play. Guo Jinyu searched for it, but couldn't find a particularly suitable candidate. In the end, I recommended him an actor-Zhang Luyi. ”

This role was played by Zhou Jie in the original play. Zhou Jie’s acting skills are fine, but his biggest problem is that he doesn’t look like a Japanese.

Zhou Jie has a typical Shandong man appearance, with strong features, tall and strong, and his overall temperament is far from that of a Japanese.

So even though his acting skills are good, there is always an indescribable sense of disharmony.

Although it may be impolite to say this, to be honest, Zhang Luyi’s persuasiveness in playing a Japanese is much stronger than Zhou Jie’s.

After all, Zhang Luyi is originally That's right, because of the role of Takagi Yuichi in "Fireline Brothers", he made his mark, and he even learned Japanese for this role.

Zhang Luyi mentioned in an interview that Huang Bo, the lead actor in the play, thought that Zhang Luyi was Japanese because he thought that his Japanese character was too similar, and deliberately slowed down his speech the day before to ask him where in Japan he was from?

Then Zhang Luyi answered with a smile that he was from Yanjing Hutong.

Liu Tianxian thought for a while and asked, "Who is Zhang Luyi?"

Wei Wu smiled and said, "He graduated from the 1999 directing department of the Central Academy of Drama, and then got a master's degree in art from Peking University. Although he hasn't made a name for himself yet, his acting skills are pretty good."

"Oh," Liu Tianxian nodded.

Again, although she didn't know them, she believed that Wei Wu's vision would not be wrong.

Wei Wu continued, "Then there are the second female Guan Jingxian and the third female Liu Xufei, the former is for Tang Yan, and the latter is for Mao Xiaotong. ”

The reason why these two roles were given to Tang Yan and Mao Xiaotong was mainly to strike a balance.

After all, Liu Shishi was the second female lead in the previous drama "Snow Leopard", so of course she had to give up her position this time.

Liu Tianxian nodded again, and she only cared about playing the female lead. As for who would play the second or third female lead, as long as it was not Yang Mi, it would make no difference to her.

"Then can I take the role of Lu Qiuying?"

"Yes," Wei Wu nodded and said:

"After all, it is a remake of a classic drama with its own popularity, and the ratings should not be bad. And this role is quite suitable for you. Since you want to play it, then take it!"

"Well, then I will reply to Director Guo Jinyu tomorrow and accept the role. "

At this time, both of them had finished eating. Liu Tianxian stood up and started to clean up the table. The main thing was to take the leftovers into the kitchen and cover them with fly-proof vegetable covers.

They usually don't wash dishes, because the aunt will wash them after dinner...

Then Liu Tianxian wiped the table clean and poured a cup of tea for Wei Wu and himself.

By the way, she asked the aunt to bring out the cantaloupe that had been cut and put on ice.

The two drank tea and chatted while enjoying the after-meal fruit.

"I heard that Yang Mi is back?"

Wei Wu immediately raised his vigilance and answered calmly:

"Yes, he came back yesterday. "

The reason why Wei Wu was a little nervous was, of course, because he cheated again!

It was already June, but the number of times he and Yang Mi met in the past six months was very few. As the saying goes, a short absence is better than a new marriage, so of course it was impossible not to have sex.

However, because he was worried about the news leaking out, Wei Wu did not dare to do anything wrong in the company, but took the opportunity to go out for lunch at noon and sneaked to Yang Mi's house to eat with her.

Then waited until lunch time was over, and then returned to the company to continue working as if nothing had happened, so as to conceal his tracks.

No way, I did it so secretly, could it be that Liu Tianxian heard something?

In order to avoid suspicion, Yang Mi did not stay in the office for long that day. And she went back a long time ago, and Wei Wu slipped over at lunch time...

And he usually ate lunch outside, rarely ate in the company cafeteria, and the time he came back at noon that day was almost the same as usual!

Although I was a little bit panicked, Wei Wu 94's performance attributes are not overshadowed. On the surface, he is as stable as an old dog.

As an old saying goes, if you have thunder in your chest and a face as flat as a lake, you can worship the general.

Wei Wuxin said that with his acting skills, if the time comes, it would be no problem to become a general!

"She's finished filming "The Sheep-Herding Star"?"

Wei Wu breathed a sigh of relief, but he was not careless and continued to answer calmly:

"Well, it will be finalized on June 8th."

Liu Tianxian sighed: "I didn't expect "Sheep Star" to be so popular. Do you think I should have taken it in the first place?"

Generally speaking, Liu Tianxian would not have too many regrets.

It is not uncommon in the entertainment industry for a script that one rejects to be acted out by someone else.

But at the last moment, the heroine of this drama that she rejected fell into the hands of Yang Mi, and the drama became popular.

This is really "a broken house and a continuous rain". For Liu Tianxian, this is almost doubly unpleasant. So this is what I felt.

Wei Wu's heart skipped a beat, what's going on? Aren't you trying to find someone to blame?

We have to be reasonable! Although I tried my best to help Yang Mi receive this drama, that happened after you rejected it.

And when you rejected it, I didn’t see the script, so you just told me that you had rejected it! It doesn't depend on me, does it?

So Wei Wu weighed his tone and said, "Hey, what happened long ago, why are you bringing him up now? It only adds to the trouble.

"Also, the role of Xia Zhixing is not very suitable for you. Otherwise, how could you reject it so simply?

"What's more, this drama was filmed as a weekly drama and took half a year to film. Let's be honest, how can you have such a schedule?

"If you accept this drama, you will most likely miss "The Left Ear" and our "Snow Leopard". Can you accept two for one?"

Liu Tianxian shook his head like a rattle:

"Forget it then. I like "Zuo Er" very much, and I think Li Er has more feelings than Xia Zhixing. If I have to choose one of the two, then I will definitely choose "Zuo Er".

"In addition, "Snow Leopard" is not only our company's first TV series, but more importantly, it is your first work as an actor. I will never miss it."

Wei Wu spread his hands and said: "So, what you lose is what you gain, and what you gain is what you gain. Whatever you gain, you must lose. Most of the time, we have to make a choice.

"And I'm not a peddler! "Sheep Star" and "Snow Leopard" will be aired soon during the summer vacation!

"If you don't believe it, just wait and see, our "Snow Leopard" will definitely be more popular than "Sheep Star" in the future!"

Liu Tianxian believed this. Since Wei Wu chose "Snow Leopard" to take the lead, it must not have been aimless.

Wei Wu was afraid that she would continue to dwell on this topic, so he quickly diverted her attention:

"Ahem, starting from tomorrow, you may have to stop dancing for a while."

Liu Tianxian nodded: "I know, because the road show of "Painted Skin" starts tomorrow!

"Well, should we start from Yanjing this time?"

Wei Wu nodded: "Well, Yanjing is the first stop, first Beijing, Tianjin and Tang Dynasty, then to the three eastern provinces, and then all the way south along the southeast coast... It's still the same route we often took before."

The long-awaited "Painted Skin" is finally about to officially begin production and will be officially released nationwide on the 29th of this month.

In fact, the promotional work for the film was already in full swing more than a month ago.

But the nationwide roadshow will officially launch tomorrow, June 11.

In fact, there is no need to put in a lot of effort in promoting this movie, because the promotion of the movie has been slowly rolled out as early as the launch or even the project was approved, and it continues to this day.

"Painted Skin" is a commercial blockbuster with an investment of 100 million yuan, and the director is Wei Wu, one of the four major directors——

Therefore, this movie itself has its own attention, so there is no need to spend a lot of effort to sharpen the gun before the battle.

Those who like to watch movies, or those who pay attention to movies, have been looking forward to this movie for 800 years.
