Chapter 673 Thoughts on the Character
Beijing, Huaguang Entertainment Company, when Yu Bin was thinking about the new drama "Jianghu Ticket House", the office door was suddenly knocked.
"Please come in."
After Yu Bin finished speaking, an employee with a blue work badge around his neck walked in, looked at Yu Bin and said, "Teacher Yu, the director wants to see you."
Yu Bin was not surprised. The new drama he was going to shoot was highly anticipated and was now a key project for the entire company. Director Qi Kai would talk to him about the new drama almost every three or five days.
"Okay, I got it." After Yu Bin finished speaking, the staff member turned around and left the office.
Yu Bin drank the flower tea on the desk in one gulp, then tidied up, stood up and left the office.
Huaguang Entertainment Company has the same department structure as most entertainment companies. Yu Bin belongs to the TV drama department, so his office and Director Qi Kai's office are actually on the same floor, but one is at the north end of the floor and the other is at the south end of the company.
After leaving the office, he went to the director's office.
Many staff members along the way saw Yu Bin and greeted him. With the hit "Jianghu Family", Yu Bin's status in the TV series department and even the entire Huaguang Entertainment Company has risen. Now he can be said to be the first director of the TV series department.
Yu Bin came to the director's office in a good mood, knocked on the door, and after getting a response from inside, he pushed the door and walked in.
"Director." Yu Bin looked at the director Qi Kai who was sitting behind the desk and greeted him.
Qi Kai saw Yu Bin coming in, stood up with a smile, and welcomed Yu Bin to the reception area on the other side of the office.
Qi Kai and Yu Bin sat on the sofas on both sides of the coffee table, and Qi Kai began to make tea for Yu Bin.
To be fair, although Qi Kai ended up in a mess at the Brilliant Entertainment Company, it does not mean that he is incompetent. On the contrary, his skills and abilities are quite outstanding, and he is also humble.
Now he has to rely on Yu Bin in many places, so even if he is the director, Yu Bin's superior, he can be very polite and respectful when treating Yu Bin.
Taking the teacup from Qi Kai, Yu Bin thanked him.
The teacup was steaming, but Qi Kai didn't rush to drink it. He put the teacup on the coffee table, smiled and looked at Yu Bin, and said, "Director Yu, how is the preparation of "Jianghu Piaohao" going?"
Qi Kai participated in the script of "Jianghu Family", and Qi Kai also participated in the script of "Jianghu Piaohao", but he didn't participate as much as in "Jianghu Family".
Qi Kai can be said to be very familiar with the script of "Jianghu Piaohao". It is precisely because of his understanding that Qi Kai has high hopes for this drama.
Including Qi Kai, a group of screenwriters from Huaguang Entertainment Company unanimously believe that the ratings of the TV series "Jianghu Piaohao" are very likely to exceed "Jianghu Family", because judging from the script alone, "Jianghu Piaohao" has a more complete story and more likable characters than "Jianghu Family".
Qi Kai can be said to attach great importance to this "Jianghu Piaohao". Whether he can take the next step in the company, "Jianghu Piaohao" plays a very important role.
Even with the previous experience in the Brilliant Entertainment Company, Qi Kai's ambition is even higher. Even if he also sits on the vice president, he can no longer feel at ease. However, those are too far away, and Qi Kai is just thinking about it now.
Yu Bin nodded and said, "Director, the early preparations for the new drama are basically almost done, and we can start shooting next."
Hearing Yu Bin say this, Qi Kai's smile on his face became brighter, and he asked, "Director Yu, you have been working with Li Liang recently. How is it going?"
Li Liang is the actor of the protagonist of "Jianghu Piaohao". By the way, the cast of "Jianghu Piaohao" is also very strong this time.
Li Liang, the actor of the male protagonist, is currently the most famous actor in Huaguang Entertainment Company. He ranks sixth on the list of first-line public figures and is also very appealing in China. Li Liang had already started to get involved in filming movies before. This time, it took Qi Kai and Yu Bin a lot of effort to bring Li Liang back to film "Jianghu Piaohao".
The script of "Jianghu Piaohao" is better than "Jianghu Family", and the cast is also not comparable to "Jianghu Family". Under this circumstance, it would be strange if the ratings of "Jianghu Piaohao" did not explode.
Yu Bin smiled and said: "The running-in is very good. Li Liang has filmed several movies and his acting skills have improved compared to before. It can be said that he has brought the role to life in several auditions."
Qi Kai was also very happy to hear Yu Bin say this. The better Li Liang performs, the higher the performance of "Jianghu Piaohao", and Qi Kai, as the director of the TV series department, will naturally gain more.
The two of them drank tea while imagining what the scene of "Jianghu Piaohao" would be after the big hit. It should be more lively than when "Jianghu Family" was a big hit.
A few days later.
Brilliant Entertainment Company.
Qian Tao, the director of the TV drama department, came to Tan Yue's office, stood in front of the desk, looked at Tan Yue, and said respectfully: "Mr. Tan."
Tan Yue smiled and nodded, pointed to the chair opposite him, and said: "Old Qian, you are here, sit down and talk."
After more than two years of contact, the relationship between Tan Yue and Qian Tao has become very familiar.
At the beginning, Qian Tao's legs trembled when he saw Tan Yue. He used to be a confidant of former Vice President Qi Kai. After Qi Kai fell and left, Qian Tao was afraid that President Tan would attack him and scare the monkeys, so he did He worked extra hard on his work. If Tan Yue asked him to go east, he would never go west, pretending to be Mr. Tan's loyal ponyboy.
In fact, Tan Yue did think about replacing Qian Tao at first. After all, the position of director of the TV drama department is still very important. However, after getting in touch with Qian Tao, he found that Qian Tao was not a fool, but quite capable. Qian Tao's appearance is not outstanding, he is dark and skinny, with very sparse hair. Based on his appearance, he is clearly a treacherous villain.
But people should not be judged by their appearance. After working together for a long time, Tan Yue has already recognized Qian Tao's ability.
Upon hearing this, Qian Tao nodded quickly, pulled out his chair, and sat across from Tan Yue, but his body was straight, as if he was listening to the leader's teachings.
Qian Tao is still very cautious. Although Tan Yue has a better attitude towards him now, he still doesn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Tan Yue. But the big stone hanging in his heart has been relieved a little. At least he doesn't have to worry about being easily fooled. 's replaced.
Tan Yue picked up a small pile of printed paper from his desk, handed it to Qian Tao, and said: "Old Qian, these are some characters I want to film in a new drama. You should first understand them and find some suitable actors. "
In the past few days, Qian Tao already knew that Mr. Tan was going to film a new TV series, and it was also a sitcom type. Although Mr. Tan didn't say much before, Qian Tao was also looking forward to this new TV series.
Now that he saw the character information in the play handed over by Mr. Tan, he couldn't wait to take it.
Tan Yue smiled and said, "Okay, watch it slowly. I also have some thoughts about the leading actors. After you watch it, we will communicate with each other. As for the other characters, you have to pay more attention. New characters will appear in every episode, and the demand for actors is relatively large. However, please note that although we need many actors, we also have requirements. Actors without acting skills, characteristics, and do not fit the style of our drama are all No."
Qian Tao nodded, "Okay, Mr. Tan."
After finishing speaking, Qian Tao began to read carefully.
Tan Yue was not in a hurry, and continued to write the script of "Wulin Gaiden" while waiting for Qian Tao to read it slowly.
He just wrote a rough list of the characters that appeared in "Wulin Gaiden". The specific scripts for each episode have not been finished yet, but have just been written in half. After all, the plot of "Wulin Gaiden" is extremely brain-consuming. And the plot is also long.
When writing the script for each episode of "Wulin Gaiden", Tan Yue was already considering which actors should play the characters in the play. Tan Yue has always paid more attention to actors. Excellent actors can be said to be the most important actors in a movie. The soul of a TV series, if the acting skills of the actors are not enough to support the plot of the TV series, then the show will collapse.
During this period of time, Tan Yue had some ideas in his mind about the actors for some of the main roles in "Wulin Gaiden".
For example, Zhang Shengli can be asked to play the thief saint Bai Zhantang in "Wulin Gaiden". Bai Zhantang is a thief in "Wulin Gaiden". He has very strong martial arts. He once competed with Chu Liuxiang in light kung fu, and he is still barefoot and against the wind. He has no martial arts background. , it’s really hard to perform the Thief Saint Bai Zhantang.
Zhang Shengli's conditions are quite suitable in all aspects. He was originally a martial arts star, and his skills have not fallen behind after so many years. Moreover, it can be seen from the previous filming of "Wolf Warrior 2" that Zhang Shengli's acting skills are equally superb, which is in line with Tan Yue's expectations for actors. He has the ability to play the role of Bai Zhantang well.
There is also Tong Xiangyu, the shopkeeper, who can let Liu Qian give it a try. Needless to say, Liu Qian’s acting skills. Although she is not very young and is not known for her superb acting skills in the circle, she has played many roles in every drama and movie. The characters are all natural and outstanding enough, but compared to her excellent acting skills, the audience is more attracted by her outstanding temperament, so they pay less attention to her acting skills.
But it is undeniable that Liu Qian's acting skills are quite good.
The only thing that makes Tan Yue a little worried is that Liu Qian and Tong Xiangyu have some conflicts in style. Liu Qian's style is extraordinarily earthy and has a strong fairy spirit. Over the years, she is the most temperamental woman Tan Yue has seen. , it’s Liu Qian and Chen Ye. But Tong Xiangyu's temperament is that charming and charming, and she also has a smile. Therefore, Liu Qian and Tong Xiangyu are in conflict on this point.
For this conflict, Tan Yue also had a plan in mind. He could let Liu Qian give it a try first to get familiar with Tong Xiangyu as soon as possible. At the same time, he could practice the dialect from Shaanxi Province and finally see the effect.
If Liu Qian's final performance is still too personal and conflicts with Tong Xiangyu's style, then she will have to replace her. Tan Yue has always been very optimistic about Liu Qian, and he likes that energetic girl. However, he has his own principles in filming, and he can take care of her as much as possible, but if it affects the effect of the plot, maintaining the quality of the TV series must be his top priority.
However, Tan Yue is somewhat looking forward to Liu Qian's final change, as he said of Liu Qian - a very smart actor.
Liu Qian is not that kind of clumsy person. Because of the needs of the plot, Liu Qian can make changes. Maybe this kind of change is very difficult for Liu Qian, but she can't do it.
As for the selection of Lv Xiucai, Tan Yue wanted to give it a try at first, but as one of the leading actors in "Wulin Wai Zhuan", Lv Xiucai had too many scenes. During the filming process, it was difficult for Tan Yue to take care of both Lv Xiucai and the director's work at the same time. So after thinking it over again and again, Tan Yue thought about playing other roles as a guest, and he chose Wang Yue as the candidate for Lv Xiucai.
Wang Yue became famous for his role as Cai Shuigen in "Underground Traffic Station" and officially became a first-line public figure. In the past year, he also took on a script and participated in two variety shows, which were very popular. The key is that Wang Yue has a handsome face and his skilled acting skills. Tan Yue is still very confident that he can play the role of Lv Xiucai well.
As for the specific training methods, Tan Yue is considering learning from Ning Caishen, the screenwriter of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" in his previous life, and let Wang Yue memorize all the Four Books and Five Classics first, preferably by heart.
In addition, Ma Guoliang plays Xing Yusen, the head of the Xing police in the play, which is also a role that tests his acting skills. However, Tan Yue is very confident about Ma Guoliang. Ma Guoliang is the most powerful drama fanatic he has seen in recent years. It can be said that he was born for drama. Many people say that Zhang Wenhua is particularly hardworking in his business, but that is because Zhang Wenhua is famous, but in Tan Yue's opinion, Zhang Wenhua's efforts are not as good as Ma Guoliang's.
With continuous efforts, the effect is also remarkable. Ma Guoliang's talent is not the best, but he works hard enough, and his acting skills will naturally improve quickly.
Tan Yue even thinks that if Ma Guoliang is given a few more years of accumulation time, perhaps in the future, this guy will be able to handle any type of role.
As for the selection of Yan Xiaoliu in the play, Tan Yue planned to hand it over to Zhou Can. He has now begun to enter the film industry. Zhou Can's nonsensical style, which is similar to the box office king of previous life, can come in handy. However, Tan Yue also wanted to train Zhou Can's acting skills before that, so he let him play Yan Xiaoliu in "Wulin Wai Zhuan" this time and trained him personally. This is an important part of his film plan, and it may be a killer in the future.
Half an hour later, Qian Tao also finished reading the information of these characters.
"Mr. Tan, I've finished reading it." Qian Tao said.
Tan Yue nodded and smiled, "Okay, let's discuss our opinions, you can talk first."
Next, the two analyzed these characters in "Wulin Wai Zhuan".
