Chapter 989 Discussion
"Teacher Fan, please come this way."
"Mr. Tan, I'll go over first."
Tan Yue said: "Okay, contact me anytime if you have anything."
"Okay." Fan Shan took the script and biographies, and under the leadership of Qin Tao, went to the personnel department to sign the contract.
More than half an hour passed.
Qin Tao returned to Tan Yue's office to report the situation: "As per your request, Teacher Fan's contract has been signed."
"Where's Teacher Fan?"
"He has gone back. He said that everything has been settled and he doesn't want to continue to disturb your work here."
Tan Yue nodded and said, "It's okay here. You can go back and do your work."
Qin Tao turned around and left the office.
Looking out the window, Tan Yue took a deep breath. He had been worrying about the actor of the old godfather for a while, and it was solved today.
At first, I just wanted to let Fan Shan come over and give it a try.
Although there is no problem with his acting skills, his image may not be the same.
However, during the audition, watching Fan Shan get into the role, the aura of the gangster that Tan Yue wanted came out immediately. His eyes, aura, and way of speaking were completely different people. Only then did he make up his mind to play the role. The role of Jiao Cheng was played by Fan Shanlai.
And the thing that makes Tan Yue most happy is signing Fan Shan.
Of course, the benefits brought by the joining of veteran actors to the company cannot be just seen on the surface.
While improving the company's strength, it will also bring great benefits to the company's subsequent development.
Just like Ma Guoliang, he can help young actors improve their abilities.
Tan Yue wants to let Bright Entertainment Company enter the international entertainment industry through movies. Actors are naturally the top priority, and more capable actors will be needed in the future.
"It's time to call Jiao Cheng." Tan Yue thought to himself, then picked up the cell phone beside him and dialed Jiao Cheng's number.
"Mr. Tan."
"Teacher Jiao, there is something I want to tell you." Tan Yue also got straight to the point.
"You said."
"It's like this. After careful consideration, I feel that the role of the old godfather is not suitable for you, and I want to let you play another role."
Jiao Cheng couldn't calm down for a while. After all, he had been studying the role of the old godfather these days.
“The Godfather movie is very important to me. Not only is it our company’s third film to be released simultaneously globally, but equally important is that it also has the responsibility to beat Columbia Entertainment’s Black Fire. Mission, the movie "The Godfather" is also possible because of "Black Fire."
In order to prevent Jiao Cheng from having any grudges, Tan Yue directly stated his purpose.
"So that's it." Jiao Cheng also noticed that some people on the Internet said that the movie "Black Fire" was plagiarizing "Infernal Affairs", and he went to find out more about it.
It's exactly what it said online.
I originally thought that the company would not respond to this matter. After all, the other party is an internationally famous entertainment company. It turned out that they were waiting here.
Jiao Cheng said: "I follow your arrangements. I have been studying this role for a while, and I don't think I am suitable for it."
In order to better play Vito Corleone, he has been trying to change his acting style.
But it's a painful process.
"Thank you for your understanding. I'll treat you to a drink after you finish working on this movie." Tan Yue said, "Come to my office when you have time, and I'll tell you about another character."
Jiao Cheng readily agreed.
The next day.
Zheng Tong came to the president's office holding a computer. Knowing that Tan Yue was in the office, he knocked lightly on the door.
"Come in."
Zheng Tong opened the door: "Mr. Tan."
"Have the results of the audition come out?"
Zheng Tong came to the opposite side of Tan Yue: "All the clips of the audition actors have been sorted out and are on the computer."
"How was the effect of this audition?"
"Overall, the effect is quite good. Whether it is the company's artists or other artists, their attitudes are very good."
Zheng Tong recalled that the audition process organized in the past two days was very smooth. Every actor who came to participate in the audition put in his best efforts.
In particular, the artists under the company had more or less heard about it and knew that this movie was Tan Yue's new work, so they showed their best during the audition.
"Let's start playing." Tan Yue put down his work and prepared to watch the trial footage.
The most important thing right now is still movies.
Zheng Tong turned on the computer, the screen lit up, clicked on the video and placed it in front of Tan Yue.
After watching the first video, Zheng Tong said: "There is another actor in the back who also plays the same role."
"Let's take a look first."
Zheng Tong clicked on the next video to continue watching.
After watching the first video, Tan Yue asked: "If you were asked to choose, which one of these two people do you think is more suitable?"
Zheng Tong thought for a moment: "According to the introduction in the character biography you wrote, I prefer the second actor. He is better at expressing the characters."
"I feel the same way. Let's choose the second actor for this role."
"OK!" Zheng Tong wrote the actor's name in the notebook prepared by Zheng Tong.
The two of them just watched the video of the actor auditioning for the role.
There are still many roles, and those who can audition directly are actors who have relatively important roles in the movie.
The actors that Zheng Tong thought were okay basically had no problems with Tan Yue.
More than an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
A glass of water was placed in front of both of them.
Zheng Tong said, "There is one last role."
Hearing Tan Yue's "hmm", the audition video for the last role began.
Zheng Tong only found a relatively suitable actor for this role. If Tan Yue doesn't pass the test, he needs to choose again. In his opinion, there is no problem with the performance of this actor.
After the video ended, Tan Yue picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.
"This actor's performance is not bad, let him play it."
Zheng Tong quickly wrote down the names of the actors: "Now all the names of the personnel have been confirmed. This is the list."
Tan Yue looked at the list and said, "Start notifying them according to the actors on the list. The specific start time will be notified separately, but it will be a very soon thing."
The artists under the company are easy to arrange. There are some other actors on the list. Most of them are actors who play minor roles in major studios. They may receive invitations from other crews.
"I understand. I told them during the audition. Our play will start shooting soon." Zheng Tong knew that the shooting task was quite tight this time, so he gave a notice in advance.
"Let's notify them now, so they don't have to wait for a long time."
"I'll do it right away."
Zheng Tong picked up the computer and the list, "I'll organize the list and send it to your email."
"Okay, send me a copy of the audition video as well."
He had to think over and over again about the selection of the main actors, including the other roles in the film. Tan Yue planned to watch it again when he had time.
He always believed that a successful film, even a passerby in the film, could not have any flaws.
Zheng Tong returned to his office and first asked his secretary to call a few supervisors to arrange for people to start contacting the actors who passed the audition.
He was not idle either. After organizing the electronic version of the list, he sent it to Tan Yue, and the audition video of the actors was also sent over.
Tan Yue continued to process the documents in his hand.
The large-scale live broadcast event of the new media department will start in a few days. All preparations have been basically completed, and the last wave of publicity will be issued tonight.
The large-scale live broadcast organized this time has caused a lot of discussion. Five anchors of Brilliant Entertainment Company with more than 10 million fans will participate, and the live broadcast platform Douyin also carried out a large atmosphere of publicity.
Looking at the statistics of the public relations department, Tan Yue was very satisfied. He believed that this live broadcast would definitely bring good results.
All departments of the company also received the notice and went all out to accompany this live broadcast event.
After reading the data, Tan Yue picked up the documents submitted by the TV series department.
Recently, the TV series department received a good script and wanted to apply for the project to start filming.
Qian Tao did various data analysis and conservatively estimated that the ratings could break one.
A rating of one is already quite popular for a TV series, the kind that can trigger discussions on major social media.
Since the TV series department has already done risk control, Tan Yue signed his name directly.
This TV series is a suspense type with great potential.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Tan Yue called Chen Ye to the office.
"Xiao Ye, here are a few documents to be sent to various departments."
Chen Ye left the office with the documents.
Tan Yue stood up and stretched his body.
Sitting in front of the computer for too long, his back and waist ached and he felt very uncomfortable.
Sometimes he jumped a few times, sometimes he did some simple stretching and exercises.
‘Dong Dong Dong, Dong Dong Dong. ’
“Come in.”
“A Yue, what are you doing?” The person who knocked on the door was Chen Ziyu.
“I’ve been sitting for too long, I need to move my body.” Tan Yue joked, “I can’t refuse to admit that I’m old.”
“How old are you?” Chen Ziyu took out the small box in his hand and said, “I just bought some fruit, come and have some.”
“Okay.” At this moment, Tan Yue had almost finished moving, stretched his body, and felt much more comfortable.
The two sat on the sofa, eating fruit and chatting.
Chen Ziyu asked, "How is the preparation for the new movie going?"
"It's going pretty smoothly, everything is going as planned. Zheng Tong sent the audition videos of the actors early in the morning. The quality of the actors is pretty good, and the other main actors are almost ready. At present, the actors' issues have been basically resolved, and the preparations before the filming is also proceeding in an orderly manner."
Chen Ziyu picked up a piece of fruit and put it in Tan Yue's mouth: "Has the start time been determined?"
Tan Yue swallowed the food in his mouth and shook his head: "Not yet, I will discuss with Zheng Tong and Wu Gong later to determine the specific time."
Listening to Tan Yue's words, Chen Ziyu knew that the start time of this movie was just around the corner.
The two chatted for a while, and Chen Ziyu went back to his office to deal with work.
Tan Yue returned to the computer, put the unfinished fruit next to him, and manipulated the mouse to open the email.
The list and audition videos sent by Zheng Tong have been received.
Tan Yue clicked on the video and watched it again.
He was worried that he had not selected the right actors because of his momentary negligence.
After all, it was the second time to watch it, so the speed would definitely be faster than the first time.
Among those audition videos that had problems at first glance, Tan Yue chose to skip them directly, and this time he focused on watching those actors with similar abilities.
As time passed, the fruit in the box did not decrease.
Tan Yue has been watching the actor's audition video attentively.
"No problem. No problem." Tan Yue picked up a piece of fruit and ate it. Nothing he worried about happened, and he was very satisfied with the actor.
Now that the actor's affairs are settled, it's time to start planning the next step.
Tan Yue picked up the internal phone, and Chen Ye answered it quickly.
"Xiaoye, help me call Zheng Tong and Wu Gong over."
"Yes, Mr. Tan."
Not long after, Mr. Wu came to the office first.
"Wait for Zheng Tong first." Tan Yue said: "I saw the live broadcast promotion renderings you sent me today and it was done well."
Because of the importance of the event, Wu Gong was personally responsible for the publicity planning.
"This kind of promotion is a relatively simple one. It is easy to gain popularity and generate topics. The anchors themselves are on the Internet. They live broadcast and post videos every day and attract a lot of fans' attention. This promotion is mainly through their own , coupled with Douyin’s promotion, the popularity has increased very quickly.”
Douyin has now become a major way to promote movies, and Wu Gong uses it quite a lot in this regard. For the promotion of movies, TV series, and singer albums, Douyin will be used whenever it involves promotion.
Tan Yue said: "Tonight's last promotion cannot be taken lightly."
"I'll keep watching."
Having Wu Gong in Tan Yue is very reassuring.
Zheng Tong hadn't arrived yet, and the two of them continued chatting.
"Do you know about the new movie?"
Wu Gong replied: "I heard other people talking in the company recently. Is there really a new movie?"
After all, he didn't hear Tan Yue say it himself, and he didn't check it, so he wasn't sure if it was true.
Tan Yue smiled and nodded: "Yes, there is indeed a new movie. The actor auditions organized by the company two days ago are to prepare for the new movie."
"That's great!" Wu Gong was a little excited.
His favorite thing is to promote Tan Yue's movies and TV series.
As long as Tan Yue's name is typed, it will achieve immediate results, attracting the attention of netizens on the Internet, and even becoming a hot search topic.
It's a great feeling to host a campaign like this.
"The selection of actors for this movie is basically over. I asked you and Zheng Tong to come here to discuss the start time."
While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door, and Zheng Tong arrived.
"Sorry, I was busy just now, so I'm late.
"It's okay, sit down."
Zheng Tong sat next to Wu Gong.
Tan Yue said: "I asked you two to come here today to discuss the shooting time of the movie "The Godfather". Please tell me what suggestions you two have."
