Chapter 1058: Replacement, Zhou Can

Although the male lead has been given to Ma Guoliang, now thinking of Zhou Can, Tan Yue's original idea of ​​replacing someone else to play the leading role has come up again.

And this idea is particularly strong.

Tan Yue has never been a hesitant person. He took out his mobile phone and called Zhou Can.

"Mr. Tan." Zhou Can answered almost immediately.

"Are you in the company now?"

"Yes, Mr. Tan, what work arrangements do you have?"

"Come to my office now, I have something to talk to you about."

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

Zhou Can put down the phone and said to the agent beside him: "Mr. Tan has something to talk to me about. I'll go there. I'll talk about the script later."

The agent brought him a script and thought the quality was good, so he wanted Zhou Can to take on the role.

Since Zhou Can played 'An Xin' in "Kuang Biao", many serious dramas began to look for him.

No longer just comedy-type roles as before, his acting range is getting wider and wider.

After the premiere of "Kuang Biao", Zhou Can took two scripts, one for a movie and the other for a TV series.

Actors can only make continuous progress through acting.

Zhou Can, who knows this well, has been acting and acting, and his acting skills have improved greatly. He hopes that one day he can play the leading role in a movie released globally by Tan Yue, just like Ma Guoliang.

The agent replied: "Go ahead, the script needs to be finalized today, I'll wait for you here for a while."

It's been a while since I received this script, and the other party has been urging me.

"Okay, I'll come back quickly after I finish Mr. Tan's work." Zhou Can got up and took the elevator to the president's office.

This time, Chen Ye helped knock on the door again. Watching the actors come one after another, he confirmed his guess.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Can greeted him: "Mr. Tan."

Tan Yue put down the script and took it out of the cabinet: "Sit down first, A Can."

Zhou Can pulled out a stool and sat opposite without saying a word. As a person with social phobia, he was very nervous when he saw the current scene.

After Chen Ye poured the water and went out, Tan Yue said, "Here is a script. I want you to try out for the leading role of this play. Do you have time to film in the next period of time?"

Zhou Can quickly reached out to take the script: "There is no work arrangement for the time being."

"That's good. The script, plot outline, and character biography are all in it. You can learn about it first, and then we can audition."

Zhou Can nodded stiffly, and his heart was already full of joy.

The script that Tan Yue gave directly must be his new movie. Usually, other movies will be directly responsible for the film department.

And actors of Zhou Can's status will receive invitations from the director directly.

Besides, Tan Yue just said that he wanted to audition, which made it even more certain.

Zhou Can didn't dare to think too much, and carefully looked through the plot outline to understand what the movie was mainly about.

If it was filmed on Earth, the background of "The Shawshank Redemption" would be foreigners. In order to make the actors understand better, Tan Yue made some changes to the background of the movie story. All the characters are of Asian background.

It took him only a few minutes to finish reading the content of several hundred words, and then he took out the script and continued to read it.

Because he had to audition, Zhou Can read it in great detail, and while reading, he was thinking about the character image in his mind.

After a while.

Zhou Can raised his head and said, "Mr. Tan, I have finished reading the script."

"Pick a paragraph from it yourself."

Zhou Can thought for a moment and pointed at the script: "Just this paragraph."

"Okay, no problem. Show your acting skills well. This is my new movie. I really hope you can play this role."

Zhou Can swallowed deeply, and his heartbeat rose sharply.

Tan Yue was slightly stunned, and quickly said, "Don't be nervous, just treat it as an ordinary audition. Act the way you show yourself in front of other directors."

"Okay." Zhou Can stood up, adjusted his breathing, and silently said in his heart: Even if I can't be the protagonist, it's okay, I just need to practice more in the future.

Then he closed his eyes and looked for the state of acting.

Looking at Zhou Can's appearance, Tan Yue regretted saying that sentence a little. He didn't expect it to bring so much pressure.

He was now worried that Zhou Can would not perform well, but the worry did not happen.

After the audition began, Zhou Can showed a different state.

As an audience, Tan Yue felt that the person in front of him was no longer Zhou Can. He was no longer nervous when speaking, nor was he as reserved as before.

It was like a different person.

The audition ended unknowingly. Tan Yue applauded and praised: "I haven't seen you act for a while. I didn't expect that you have made such great progress during this period."

Zhou Can scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and quickly returned to the state before the audition. The whole person began to be reserved again, saying: "It's okay!"

But I was very happy to get Tan Yue's praise.

"This scene is great, and your performance is beyond my expectations."

Before Zhou Can came, Tan Yue was somewhat worried. After all, this play has high requirements for the acting skills of the male lead. "I have been considering whether you are suitable for the male lead. Now I think you are very suitable, so this role is given to you."

"Thank you for your recognition of me." Zhou Can was excited and said seriously: "I will definitely not let you down."

"Okay, that's what I want you to say." Tan Yue said, "Go back and continue to familiarize yourself with the role. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me."

Zhou Can stood up and picked up the folder, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Tan, I'll go back first."

"Okay." Watching Zhou Can leave, Tan Yue picked up his phone.

Zhou Can pinched his arm while sitting in the elevator, feeling like he was dreaming. He had always dreamed of playing the leading role in Mr. Tan's movie again, but he didn't expect his dream to come true.

Before coming here, he was still discussing with his agent whether to take over the movie, but now he doesn't have to consider it.

Any hesitation for a second is disrespect for the script in hand.

Zhou Can couldn't hide the smile on his face. It was a rare opportunity, not to mention that it was a movie that was released simultaneously around the world.

No matter how difficult it was, he had to perform this role perfectly.

Tan Yue on the other side called Ma Guoliang.

It's not that Ma Guoliang is not good enough, but after watching Zhou Can's audition, he felt more suitable.

And since writing this movie, Tan Yue has been thinking about changing someone else to play the leading male role.

The phone beeped twice, and Ma Guoliang answered the call: "Mr. Tan."

"Teacher Ma, I'm sorry, I want Zhou Can to play your role."

Ma Guoliang was obviously stunned and didn't speak for a few seconds.

Tan Yue continued: "I think it's not your acting skills that are the reason for changing Zhou Can. You know that our company's development plan is to move towards the international entertainment industry. You are already very famous internationally. I want to train more people and accumulate the company's foundation so that we can move more steadily in the international entertainment industry."

"Understand." Ma Guoliang naturally knew the company's development plan.

He had no dissatisfaction. He had played the leading role in three movies that were released simultaneously around the world. The company still had so many actors. Compared with them, he was very lucky.

Tan Yue said: "I'm really sorry, Teacher Ma."

"It's okay, it's okay. I just think this is a very good movie. It's a pity not to play it."

The loss in his heart was inevitable, and Ma Guoliang leaned back in his chair.

"You can play another role."

"Really?"

Tan Yue replied: "There are many other roles in the movie, you can choose any role you want to play."

"Mr. Tan, can you give me some time? I want to take a look at the script again."

"Of course no problem." Tan Yue answered firmly. He had planned to let Ma Guoliang play a role in "The Shawshank Redemption".

Suddenly, such a thing happened, so he just chose it himself.

The two hung up the phone, and Tan Yue looked at the list of roles, his eyes fixed on the three words "Ellis".

The male lead has been settled, and it's time to consider the male second. There is no female lead in the movie "The Shawshank Redemption", after all, the plot revolves around the prison.

Tan Yue then flipped through the list of actors and thought, let's find someone older to play.

With this idea in mind, he looked through the list of outstanding elderly artists.

After comparison, Tan Yue took out his mobile phone and called Fan Shan.

Although all the actors on this list are talented, after comparing them, the most talented and also the most reassuring one must be Fan Shan.

"Mr. Tan." Fan Shan answered almost immediately.

"Teacher Fan, please come to my office. I have something to ask you."

"Okay."

Fan Shan walked and thought: Just now he asked Brother Ma to come over, and now he called me again. Could it be that Mr. Tan has a new movie? !

With such a mood, he came to the president's office and knocked on the door gently.

Chen Ye went out to deliver documents and did not sit at his workstation.

"Come in."

Fan Shan pushed open the door: "Mr. Tan."

"Teacher Fan, sit down." Tan Yue sat on the sofa. He was tired of sitting on the chair all the time.

Fan Shan sat on a separate sofa: "Mr. Tan, do you have any work arrangements?"

Tan Yue smiled and replied: "You can't hide anything from you."

Picked up a document on the coffee table: "This is the new movie I just wrote. I want you to help me take a look."

"New movie!!" Even if I guessed some before coming, I was still surprised when I really got the script in my hand.

"The name of the movie is "The Shawshank Redemption", which is a drama and crime movie." Then Tan Yue briefly introduced the plot.

After listening, Fan Shan nodded and said: "The plot of the whole movie is very good, especially the ending makes the whole movie have a completely different meaning."

"Are you interested in playing a role in it?"

Fan Shan said without hesitation: "Of course."

Even if you don't know what the movie is about, as long as it is written by Tan Yue, there is no reason to refuse.

"I plan to let you play the second male Morgan. You take a look at the script first, and then we will try a scene."

"Okay."

Fan Shan readily agreed.

In the next period of time, Tan Yue sipped tea and waited for Fan Shan to finish reading the script.

"Wonderful, it's really wonderful. This movie is not inferior to "The Godfather" at all!" Fan Shan said excitedly.

After listening to the plot introduction, I felt that this movie was extraordinary. Now that I have understood all the plots, the degree of excitement is far beyond my imagination.

Fan Shan has been in the film industry for decades. He has seen too many directors and screenwriters, but there is only one person with such talent, Tan Yue.

"Try a scene?"

"Shall I do it myself?"

Tan Yue said "yeah" affirmatively.

Ma Guoliang, Zhou Can and Fan Shan in front of him are all veteran actors, and there are no specific requirements for their audition content.

When reading the script, Fan Shan was deeply impressed by one of the passages, so he chose this passage without thinking.

Just like watching Ma Guoliang and Zhou Can audition, Tan Yue sat on the sofa and watched Fan Shan adjust his state without saying a word.

Fan Shan entered the role faster, and the audition officially began with more than ten seconds.

If Zhou Can's performance was 95 points, Fan Shan's performance could be 99 points.

The first second the audition officially began, Tan Yue made a decision in his heart.

Fan Shan's acting skills were more reassuring, and there was no lag at all, and he finished the audition content.

Tan Yue couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "It was an extremely correct decision to sign you to the company."

Fan Shan said modestly: "People often say that there are many good horses, but it is difficult to find a good horse trainer. Without you, Mr. Tan, I might have given up acting now."

After a wave of commercial praise, Tan Yue talked about business: "Your performance just now was very good. I will leave the second male lead to you."

"Thank you Mr. Tan for giving me this opportunity. I will definitely work hard!" Now Fan Shan seems to have returned to his youth, with a sense of motivation.

"If you have any questions, feel free to contact me."

After saying goodbye, Fan Shan came out of the office and looked at the script in his hand with an unspeakable joy on his face.

In fact, even if it was not an important role, he would be equally happy.

Now that he is over 60 years old, he is very satisfied to have a role in the play directed by Tan Yue.

It goes without saying that he will "definitely work hard". Before starting the filming, Fan Shan will also do his best to familiarize himself with the role.

In the past ten years in the industry, no matter what the play is, he will do his best.

This is Fan Shan's attitude towards work.

'Ding Dong'

The elevator door opens.

Fan Shan raised his legs and stepped into the elevator, pressing ‘3’ to return to the artist management department. The script has been obtained, and during this period, all energy must be used to familiarize himself with the script.

Tan Yue still sat on the sofa, boiled the tea, and made himself another cup of tea.

Sipping the tea, staring at the tea in the teapot in a trance.

The whole morning was busy with casting. Now the male lead and the male second have been settled, and Ma Guoliang will also choose a role from it. Tan Yue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was time to consider other roles.

The remaining roles did not have too many roles.

After a while, Tan Yue put down the cup, stood up and stretched, and felt a sense of comfort all over his body.
