This star’s style is wrong

"Ark Culture is auditioning the female lead again? Do they want to use this as a bargaining chip to lower the price, or do they really want to choose another female lead?"

When the executives of Brilliant Entertainment learned that Ark Culture had begun to send out audition invitations for the heroines of new dramas, they became suspicious of this cooperation.

Wang Xingfa named Liu Shiying's agent and asked: "Are you still communicating with Ark Culture?"

The agent nodded and replied: "We are still communicating, but we are stuck on the terms of the contract. Ark Culture has very strict requirements on following the team throughout the entire process, and is unwilling to increase the proportion of studio shooting."

The Director of the Film and Television Production Department of Brilliant Entertainment spoke out: "I think Ark Culture is a negotiation strategy. It did not reject us, but continued to audition other actresses. This clearly wants us to submit."

In business cooperation, during the negotiation stage, who can take the initiative depends on who has more cards and who is more confident.

The trump card of Brilliant Entertainment is Liu Shiying.

With Liu Shiying's current ability to carry dramas, whatever she shoots becomes popular, and film and television companies are always begging her to take on dramas.

Ark Culture’s card is its ability to produce film and television dramas. It has consistently high-level TV dramas, each of which is the king of dramas and has swept all major award ceremonies.

Ark Culture has this kind of strength, and it will definitely be strong when talking about cooperation.

Moreover, this is a new drama project of Ark Culture. As the producer, it already has the initiative.

Liu Shiying's agent said a little angrily: "Actually, our request is not too much. We just want to shorten the time spent with the team, and we will still shoot seriously when filming."

Wang Xingfa looked at Liu Shiying and asked: "What do you think? Should you lower your requirements and take on Ark Culture's new drama, or should you directly cooperate with Fanfan Entertainment and take on "Spring River Plumbing"?"

Liu Shiying frowned and said, "Actually, I think both scripts are good, but I don't know which one to choose."

The director of the film and television production department said: "Actually, if you take away Fang Xing's blessing on the drama and look at the script alone, I think "Spring River Plumbing" is more suitable.

“After all, this script has more female protagonists, unlike Ark Culture’s script, which has fewer female protagonists.

“However, if Fang Xing is added, he will hesitate.

"After all, if you work with Fang Xing, you are more likely to win an award. If you hide the director's name, it will be easier to make a choice."

Wang Xingfa agreed: "This analysis makes sense. The cooperation with Ark Culture is based on Fang Xing's reputation.

"But the script they produced this time is really hard to say. Even if it has a good reputation, the ratings may not be good.

"Besides, we have no shortage of trophies for the time being. It would be better to stabilize the ratings of new dramas first, film more hit dramas, and then compete for awards in a few years."

Liu Shiying really felt that both dramas were good. After hearing what Wang Xingfa said, she asked: "Mr. Wang, are you sure you want to take on "Spring River Plumbing"?"

Wang Xingfa said: "There is no rush to make a decision. We can have in-depth discussions with Fanfan Entertainment on the cooperation of "Spring River Plumbing".

"Ark Culture can audition heroines, and we can also talk about "Spring River Plumbing".

"Maybe Ark Culture will find out that we don't have to cooperate with them and immediately turn around and beg us."

After a meeting and discussion, Huihuang Entertainment decided to promote cooperation with Fanfan Entertainment and began to discuss the cooperation method for "Spring River Plumbing".

…

Fanfan Entertainment's "Spring River Plumbing" this time is to firstly complete the tasks of the superior department, and secondly to establish a positive image of Zhu Yiting, paving the way for the big screen in the future.

Moreover, the investment in "Spring Plumbing" this time is relatively large, and it is a standard S+ project.

In order to praise Zhu Yiting, Fanfan Entertainment decided to find a new leader this time.

Song Li, Deng Huiling, Chen Yumei, these TV queens, many entertainment companies have tried to communicate.

Among them, Song Li refused directly because her company was preparing a new drama, and with the speed at which she was filming dramas, she would not accept other scripts for two to three years.

Deng Huiling has received the script and is in the early stages of negotiation.

Chen Yumei was originally a movie actress. She made a TV series because of favors and won the Flying Eagle Award for Best Actress.

However, Chen Yumei still pays more attention to the development on the big screen and easily refuses to accept TV series.

Therefore, Fanfan Entertainment’s current main target is Deng Huiling.

However, Deng Huiling had worked with a top celebrity before, and the process was not very pleasant, so she was a little cautious in this regard.

Of course, being cautious does not mean there is no possibility of cooperation.

As long as you are willing to pay a premium and offer favorable terms, there will definitely be a chance.

In addition to Deng Huiling, Liu Shiying is also one of Fanfan Entertainment's choices.

Moreover, Liu Shiying has just won the Gladiolus Award and is now in her most productive period for actresses, so she is highly loved by the audience.

Relatively speaking, the age difference between Liu Shiying and Zhu Yiting is not that big.

Therefore, Fanfan Entertainment is actually very satisfied with Liu Shiying, but there have been rumors that Liu Shiying wants to cooperate with Fang Xing, so they have not been able to negotiate.

When major film and television companies discuss cooperation, they contact multiple parties and then make the most beneficial choice.

This is a multi-party game process.

The same is true for Brilliant Entertainment, the same is true for Fanfan Entertainment, and the same is true for Ark Culture.

…

This time Ark Culture expanded the scope of auditions for heroines, and Fanfan Entertainment also received the news.

Fanfan Entertainment knew that the cooperation between Liu Shiying and Fang Xing might not go smoothly, so they immediately became active and offered more favorable conditions to Brilliant Entertainment.

Because Fanfan Entertainment has given me too much.

The two companies hit it off immediately, discussed the contract details for a week, and then signed the contract.

Liu Shiying is confirmed to star in "Spring River Water Warm", but there is no official announcement, but we will continue to wait and see the response of Ark Culture.

It was Wang Xingfa's decision not to make an official announcement, and he even asked senior executives who knew about it not to disclose it to the outside world.

Because after Liu Shiying took over the poverty alleviation drama "Spring River Plumbing", it meant that she became a competitor with Ark Culture.

Both are poverty alleviation dramas, and in response to national advocacy, they will try to be broadcast in the second half of this year.

This means that the two dramas are likely to collide in schedule.

Entertainment companies can cooperate with all their strength when cooperating, but when competing, any means can be used as long as it does not violate the law.

Therefore, Brilliant Entertainment hid the news that Liu Shiying had taken over the filming of "Spring River Water Warmth", and the investment department continued to contact Ark Culture.

He has been hanging on Ark Culture, slowing down the preparation progress of Ark Culture's new drama.

If Ark Culture auditions other actresses just to keep the price down, then it’s considered a scam.

…

It's just that the actresses auditioned by Ark Culture are actually auditioning.

Although Fang Xing said that the role in the new drama required high acting skills and was not suitable for Lin Yingxue, Lin Yingxue still asked for an audition.

Auditioning actors doesn't take much time.

Therefore, Fang Xing agreed to let her participate in the audition.

The audition invitations sent out this time were all concentrated on one day, with an average of one person being auditioned every hour.

In addition to Lin Yingxue and Hot Roll Yi, Guan Shuxi is also here.

The first person to audition was Lin Yingxue.

After the audition, it was pretty much what Fang Xing expected.

After all, I have worked with Lin Yingxue on three or four dramas, and I know her acting ability very well.

Lin Yingxue came from a major and has some acting skills, but she still lacks the proficiency because of her age.

However, Fang Xing gave her another choice: "A female supporting role? It's the role of Bai Maimiao, Principal Bai's daughter."

Lin Yingxue's audition for the female lead was unsuccessful, but she thought she could play a supporting role. She didn't hesitate for long before she nodded and agreed: "Play!"

In fact.

She is already a quasi-first-line actress, and her market salary is already upwards of 20 million.

With her popularity and reputation, she has several heroine scripts to choose from.

Basically to the point where there is no need to play a supporting role.

However, Fang Xing's new drama this time has too many big names playing supporting roles.

Wu Zhikang, the king of Jin Peng, plays a supporting role, Yan Lan also plays a supporting role, and Wang Kai also plays a supporting role, and they are supporting roles with not too many roles.

Shi Didu plays a supporting role, and even when she plays a supporting role, she is considered to be the smallest among the supporting roles.

…

Subsequently.

Accompanied by her manager Sister Dan, Hot Roll arrived at the Ark Culture headquarters in advance to wait for the audition.

Lin Yingxue came out of the audition activity room and saw Hota Yi. The two of them greeted warmly: "Hello."

Hot Roll Yi asked: "How was the audition? Is Director Fang as strict as the rumors say?"

Fang Xing's nickname of "Audition Yama" has become well known in the industry.

Of course, everyone was just joking.

As long as you are an actor who has worked hard from the bottom, who has not auditioned dozens or hundreds of times but may not get a role?

Lin Yingxue said with a smile: "It's quite strict."

Hot Roll Yi's manager, Sister Dan, was quite experienced. Seeing Lin Yingxue looking very happy, she asked, "Yingxue's audition must have been a success, right? Did she pass it?"

"Well... that's right." Lin Yingxue nodded and replied.

Hearing this, Hot Roll Yi and manager Sister Dan were both a little depressed.

With Lin Yingxue's current popularity, she must have auditioned for the heroine, and the audition was successful. Doesn't that mean the heroine has been finalized?

Of course, it is difficult to pursue this matter. After all, the two parties should be considered in a competitive relationship.

In fact, Hot Roll Yi and her manager Sister Dan have already discussed this situation.

With Ark Culture's current film and television production capabilities, there are too many actors willing to cooperate. If you just send a few audition invitations, there will be a lot of actors to audition.

Therefore, Hot Roll Yi and her manager Sister Dan considered from the beginning that the audition for the heroine might fail, and they also thought of the next best solution.

If you fail to audition for the leading role, you can also try to see if you can win other supporting roles.

Hot Roll has played a lot of supporting roles, so he doesn't mind playing supporting roles. Moreover, he is working with Fang Xing. After all, several of the actors who have collaborated with Fang Xing have won awards.

At this moment.

The assistant director walked out of the door and called the next actor to audition.

Hot Roll Yi entered the audition room and said hello: "Hello directors, I am Hot Roll Yi and this is my resume."

As she spoke, she walked up and handed a stack of printed resumes to each director.

Fang Xing's directing team, a total of six people from the casting director to the assistant director, all received their resumes.

In fact.

Hot Roll's manager, Sister Dan, had already sent her electronic resume.

However, he had to be thorough in his work, so he still took the initiative to send his resume.

Fang Xing took a look at his resume and asked, "By the way, have you got the script?"

At the beginning, her manager, Sister Dan, sent a message to Fang Xing and asked if she could give her an audition opportunity.

Fang Xing agreed, but left the rest of the matter to Qiao Yinghong.

Normally, when you send out an audition invitation, you will be given an introduction to the character and a script for a few scenes.

However, Fang Xing did not arrange it himself, so he asked first.

Hota Yi nodded and replied: "I got it, and I've read the script."

Fang Xing took out a page of the script from the table, handed it over, and said, "Okay, let's give this one a try."

Hot Roll Yi took the script printed on A4 paper and lowered his head to read it.

She had gotten the script for this scene a few days ago and had read it many times.

However, she still read it carefully, read the lines silently, then nodded and said, "I'm ready."

The script is a script, but there are some things that are not written in the script.

Before starting, Fang Xing said: "I mainly look at the performance of facial expressions. Your father married you because of the betrothal gift of a donkey, so you escaped from the marriage.

"You escaped on the train, and then you were found by the male protagonist who grew up with your childhood sweetheart. But the feelings between you have never been confessed. I want you to show the look of embarrassment that you don't want to be seen by the other person."

Reruyi nodded, thought carefully and then started to perform. He pursed his lips, showing that he was aggrieved and wanted someone to help him, but he didn't want others to see his stubbornness and strength.

Since there were several actresses auditioning for the heroine this time, each one played a different role.

For example, Liu Shiying's performance is more pitiful, and there is a kind of cruelty in the pitifulness. This is the feeling that comes with having a leading female protagonist in dramas, as if she will definitely rise to the top in the future.

This is also the reason why Fang Xing is not satisfied with Liu Shiying.

Maybe it's because she has played too many leading heroines, but Liu Shiying has a feeling: I am a leading heroine, and my current downturn is only temporary.

This feeling is not actually a shortcoming, because if the audience can see that the heroine will become stronger in the future, it can actually be regarded as a sense of expectation.

It’s just that it doesn’t work well in this drama.

There is no big heroine in this drama. Everyone is an ordinary person with flaws, and no one can soar to the top.

Therefore, Fang Xing did not want an actor with a strong heroine temperament to play the heroine.

In comparison, Hot Roll Yi's performance is closer to reality and shows the psychological changes of the character.

The heroine and the hero are childhood sweethearts. They grew up in the same village and have a kind of friendship with each other.

But this friendship has always been separated by a certain distance, and neither of them has crossed that step.

What Fang Xing wants to film is not a bloody romance drama, so the two of them have a friendship deep in their hearts, but this friendship will only be hidden in their hearts.

Looking at each other, hoping that the other person can live a good life, very pure.

The character of the heroine Li Shuihua is soft but also tough at the same time.

Fang Xing watched Lao Ruyi's performance, thought about it for a moment, and said, "Let's do it again. Because of your escape from marriage, your father was injured by people from a neighboring village. You returned resolutely and decided to follow your father's arrangement to get married.

“When you agreed to marry, the hero was also present.

"After you made the decision, you felt sad inside, but you didn't want to be discovered by the male protagonist, so you forced a smile to the male protagonist.

"Use your thoughts to express this smile. This smile is the highest requirement of this role."
