Chapter 987 Selection

The next day.

As soon as Tan Yue arrived at the office, Zheng Tong came over with documents.

"Mr. Tan, we have revised all the problems that occurred in yesterday's storyboard script. Can you tell us what else needs to be revised?"

Tan Yue took the script and asked, "What time did you finish it yesterday?"

Zheng Tong looked a little haggard, as if he hadn't woken up.

"It's not too late, it will be around twelve o'clock when we go back."

Although he looked very tired, he was slightly excited. He was willing to stay up all night for such a good movie script. Now he hoped that the revised script could meet the requirements.

"Report your overtime hours to the Attendance Department later."

"good."

Anyone who works overtime due to work reasons will receive overtime pay.

Tan Yue looked at it carefully. The focus was of course on the problem that occurred yesterday.

“This place has been renovated well.”

Zheng Tong nodded, but he still didn't dare to relax. He made several changes later.

Tan Yue continued to look, and soon saw the place where the last question was asked yesterday.

Zheng Tong stared at the script. In fact, his eyes kept drifting to the expression on Tan Yue's face. He wanted to know if he had passed it.

Tan Yue put down the script and said: "After the problems that occurred yesterday have been revised, there are no longer any problems in the split-shot script. When the time comes, we will shoot according to this version."

Hearing these words, Zheng Tong's mood, which had been pounding, banging, banging, finally calmed down, and he was very happy.

Several people stayed up late and worked overtime to revise the problem, which was simply more satisfying than finding a good script.

Tan Yue said: "Clean it up and send the electronic version to my email."

"OK!"

Tan Yue picked up a piece of paper at hand and said: "This is your next task. It contains the characters in the movie "The Godfather". Find the actors."

Zheng Tong received the character list, and it was expected that there were not a few protagonists on it.

As long as it is Tan Yue's film and television work, the protagonist will be selected personally, and other roles will be left to the company's people to choose.

Zheng Tongdao: "Guaranteed to complete the task as quickly as possible."

"Here is a biography of a character. Take it and I will tell you about the content of the script." Tan Yue picked up the script and explained it to Zheng Tong in detail.

Zheng Tong looks at the script, and when it comes to roles, he will take out the character biographies and think carefully to see which actors are suitable.

After some explanation, Tan Yue took a sip of water: "I have told you so much, I hope it will help you choose actors."

Zheng Tong nodded and said: "After listening to your explanation, I really have a deeper understanding of the characters. I will go back to find actors now."

Tan Yue said "Yeah": "Go and get busy."

Zheng Tong left in a hurry and returned to his office. The first thing he did was to open the company's artist information.

It’s still the same principle as before.

First select from within the company, and if you really can't find a suitable candidate, then look for actors from outside.

After listening to Tan Yue's detailed explanation, Zheng Tong did have a different understanding of each role, and the process of selecting actors became much smoother.

As for whether an actor is qualified for the role, it depends on his own ability.

Zheng Tong cast at least two actors for each role.

Admission is based on merit.

He understands the importance of this film and cannot be careless in the slightest.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Xin Zhi came to the company early in the morning.

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Chen, good morning!"

Chen Ziyu said in surprise: "Aren't you doing activities in Qiong Province? Why did you come to the company so early today?"

As soon as Chen Ziyu and Tan Yue arrived at the CEO's office, they saw Xin Zhi waiting at the door of Tan Yue's office.

Xin Zhi smiled and replied: "Mr. Tan has a new movie and asked me to audition for it. I wanted to come over early."

After the event, she refused the brand's dinner and flew back directly.

Tan Yue said: "Those who should rest should also rest well. Don't be so anxious."

"I've always had something like this in my heart, and I can't rest well."

Chen Ziyu said: "Then go to the audition as soon as possible. Once the audition is over, go and rest as soon as possible."

"Okay, Mr. Chen."

Xin Zhi followed Tan Yue to the office.

"Sit down first and I'll tell you the general plot of the script."

Tan Yue took out the script he had already prepared from the drawer and handed it to Xin Zhi, saying, "You read it first. The movie is a gangster movie, and its name is "The Godfather."

"Godfather?" Xin Zhi was a little confused. She didn't quite understand what the word "godfather" meant.

"You will understand what I mean when I tell you the plot. This story took place in the 1940s and 1950s in the last world."

In the meantime, Chen Ye came in to deliver documents and poured a glass of water for the two of them.

After listening to Tan Yue's introduction, Xin Zhi also understood the meaning of 'godfather'. It was normal not to understand it at first. After all, she had never been exposed to this period of history.

Xin Zhi also learned that the character she was playing was named Kay Adams, the wife of the second-generation godfather, Michael Corleone.

"This is a biography of the character. You should read it first." Tan Yue said: "We will try a scene later. You should prepare first."

Xin Zhi quickly took the biography, borrowed a pen, and read it carefully.

She wants to write down some key information on it to help her understand the character better.

Tan Yue, who was sitting in front of the computer, processed the documents sent by Chen Ye.

After reading the biography, Xin Zhi also had a comprehensive understanding of this role, and her cognition gradually became richer. She is a woman with a strong personality. She met Michael Corleone in a relationship, but she only saw her husband's true face later.

After reading the biography, Xin Zhi began to read the script. She also wanted to take a closer look at the content of the script, but she knew that now was not the time. The most important thing at the moment was to get this role.

After reading the script several times, Xin Zhi was constantly thinking about how to perform in her mind.

"Mr. Tan, I'm ready."

"Okay, let's start." Tan Yue put down the work in his hands.

Xin Zhi adjusted her state. Not resting well still had some impact on her state.

Fortunately, she adjusted herself in time and played the scene that needed to be tried completely.

Tan Yue said: "Not bad, you should play this role."

"Thank you, Mr. Tan!" Xin Zhi was very excited.

"I still need to continue to study this role and adjust my state before starting." It is definitely not possible with Xin Zhi's current state, but Tan Yue is still very confident in Xin Zhi.

Xin Zhi nodded heavily. She knew that she was in a bad state today.

Tan Yue said, "Go back and have a good rest first. The start time will be notified later."

"I'll go first."

After Xin Zhi left, Tan Yue continued to work.

In the evening, Ruishan Community.

Tan Yue came out of the kitchen with the last dish and started to enjoy a delicious dinner with Chen Ziyu.

"Today's soup is very fresh, do you want to drink some?"

Chen Ziyu approached and smelled it: "It's really fresh, give me a small bowl."

The two chatted while eating.

Chen Ziyu asked, "How was the result of Xin Zhi's audition today?"

"Overall, the effect was not bad. The script has been given to her. With her personal ability, it is not too difficult to master this role."

Chen Ziyu nodded and took a sip of soup: "How is the casting of the new movie going?"

"The candidates for the main roles have basically been determined. There are also some other roles that Zheng Tong has been asked to look for. It will start filming soon."

"Is there a role for Teacher Ma in it?"

"Yes, he is quite suitable for the main role in all aspects. The first role confirmed in the movie is Teacher Ma's role."

The two chatted until they finished dinner and cleaned up the kitchen. It was still early, and the two sat on the sofa and watched TV.

Chen Ziyu suddenly remembered something, took out his mobile phone and looked at the schedule for tomorrow sent by the secretary, and said, "There is an event inviting us to participate together. Do you have time to participate tomorrow?"

The invitation letter for this event was sent to Brilliant Entertainment Company a few days ago. When Chen Ziyu received the invitation letter, Tan Yue was busy auditioning, and later forgot about it because of work.

She knew that Tan Yue had been busy with his new movie this time, and she asked this question because she was not sure if he had time.

Tan Yue thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I won't participate in this event. You can help me talk about it when the time comes. There are still many things to do on the movie. I guess we will start auditioning for other roles tomorrow. I have to keep an eye on it on the scene."

Compared with other work, the most important thing now is to quickly finalize the actor's affairs.

"Black Fire" over there has been filming, and her own movie has not started yet.

There is not much free time to allow for other things.

Chen Ziyu could also guess Tan Yue's answer and said, "This event is not important. It is a new product launch conference of a brand. I can attend it myself. You should be busy with the movie in the company. The most important thing now is the movie."

"Thank you for your hard work."

There are often events like this. Brilliant Entertainment Company has cooperated with many companies.

With the current strength of Brilliant Entertainment Company, it is inevitable to be invited.

Chen Ziyu and others also try to turn down as much as possible, and if they really can't turn down, they have to participate.

The brand of tomorrow is a benchmark in the industry and is very powerful.

Chen Ziyu put his phone aside and said, "Fortunately, we are in Beijing, otherwise we have to catch the bus."

"What time will we go tomorrow?"

"Start at ten o'clock. Go to the company first tomorrow and leave directly from the company."

Chen Ziyu lay on Tan Yue, and the two watched TV for a while until ten o'clock.

Tan Yue patted Chen Ziyu gently and said, "Hurry up and take a shower. It's getting late."

Chen Ziyu got up and yawned. He was sleepy after lying for a while.

"I'm going to take a shower, you should go to rest too."

Tan Yue said "hmm", watched Chen Ziyu leave, got up and turned off the TV, and went to the bathroom upstairs to wash up.

...

The next day.

Brilliant Entertainment Company, the president's office.

Tan Yue, sitting in front of the computer, looked down at the documents in his hand intently.

The public relations department summarized the effects of the publicity in recent days.

One of the important ones, and what Tan Yue was most concerned about, was the large-scale live interaction organized by the new media department.

Several big anchors already have a huge fan base, so it will be much easier to do publicity work.

Five anchors successively released short videos on Douyin to announce the live broadcast.

The total number of video clicks has exceeded 20 million, becoming a hot news on the entertainment list.

The publicity plan of the public relations department is still continuing, and the subsequent popularity will continue to increase, which is very good.

After Tan Yue carefully checked the data, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

As long as they can seize this opportunity, other anchors will have great opportunities.

Of course, in order to make this live broadcast successful, the company has begun to arrange training for young anchors.

After watching various promotional activities, Tan Yue processed several more documents. During the break, Chen Ye knocked on the door gently and came in: "Mr. Tan, Director Zheng is here."

"Come in." Tan Yue returned to the computer with a cup and sat down.

Zheng Tongdao: "Mr. Tan, this is the list of actors. Take a look at it first."

When Tan Yue took the document, he knew that Zheng Tong's work efficiency was fast enough and he would definitely send the list over in the morning.

If you still have to go to the event, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

There are many company-owned artists on the list.

This is exactly what Tan Yue wants to see.

He knows how attractive his movie is and how many actors want a role in it.

The purpose is to take this opportunity to let more viewers remember themselves.

It is also a form of diversion.

Tan Yue is more willing to give this opportunity to artists from his own company.

Zheng Tongdao: "Because the story of this movie takes place in the United States, I found many foreign actors so that the actors can fit the characters more closely."

Tan Yue didn't have any objections to this, and it was appropriate to find foreign actors.

Tan Yue looked over it carefully and said: "There is nothing wrong with the list, but whether it is suitable or not depends on the final test results."

"Understood." Zheng Tongdao: "In order to find the right actor, there are basically two candidates for each role. If both pass, the best will be selected. If both fail, I will re-select the actor."

Tan Yue said with satisfaction: "Let's start auditioning according to this list."

Zheng Tong asked: "Will you still participate then?"

Tan Yue thought for a while and said, "You prepare the relevant work first. If I have time, I will go there."

"good."

Tan Yue reminded: "This audition is still the same as the original "Forrest Gump". We will record the actors' audition process and give them a unified response to the audition results at that time."

It's not that Tan Yue doesn't believe in Zheng Tong's ability, it's that the movie "The Godfather" is too important and carries a heavy task, so the selection of each actor must be personally checked.

Zheng Tong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure on him was much less. When choosing actors for Tan Yue's film and television works, even if they were supporting roles, he was worried that the actors he chose would ruin a drama.

Now it’s just a matter of recording the entire audition process.
