Chapter 904 Dinner

After Lin Qingye returned to the office, he first dealt with the unfinished work in his hands. The most important task at the moment was to notify the actors who had passed the audition.

After completing the last round of confirmation of the list of personnel, Lin Qingye called his secretary to the office and said: "Contact the actors according to this list, inform them that the audition has passed, and ask them to come to the company to sign the contract within two days, otherwise it will be invalid after the expiration."

After the secretary left, Lin Qingye lay on the chair to rest for a while and began to think about the dinner.

In fact, the dinner of the crew was not a difficult thing for him. The more difficult thing was to see if everyone had a common time to get together for dinner.

Lin Qingye suddenly remembered Tan Yue's time, so he called Chen Ye.

"Director Lin."

"Ms. Chen, I want to ask you something."

"You go."

"Is Mr. Tan free this Friday night?"

"Wait a minute." Chen Ye looked through Tan Yue's work schedule and said, "Mr. Tan has an event on Friday night and has no schedule for Saturday night. He said that if you ask him about his time, weekend nights are fine."

"Thank you." Lin Qingye hung up the phone and decided to schedule the dinner on Saturday night.

After all, he was Tan Yue's screenwriter, so Lin Qingye still hoped that he could be there.

Then he started calling other people. Zhou Can and Zhang Wenhua both had time, so they agreed immediately.

"Zhang Shengwen." Lin Qingye suddenly remembered that he didn't have Zhang Shengwen's contact information, so he looked for it in the submitted materials.

'Beep-beep-beep. '

"Hello."

Zhang Shengwen's voice came out.

"Hello, Teacher Zhang, I'm Lin Qingye."

"Ah? Director Lin." Zhang Shengwen said in surprise.

Lin Qingye smiled and said, "I'm calling because I want to ask you something."

"What is it? Go ahead."

Lin Qingye got down to business: "I'm going to get the crew together for dinner first. Do you have time on Saturday night?"

"If I have time, I'll definitely go there on Saturday."

"Okay, is your mobile number your WeChat?"

"Yes."

"Please check it later. I'll send you the time and place."

After Zhang Shengwen hung up the phone, he received a notification and immediately approved Lin Qingye's request to add him as a friend.

Even if he didn't have time, he would definitely make time to go to this dinner. So far, Zhang Shengwen didn't know who the crew members were.

The casting of Brilliant Entertainment has always been strict, and Tan Yue's works must be very powerful actors. It's a good opportunity to get to know them well.

"Kuang Biao" is a very good script. Zhang Shengwen really wants to know which actor in the circle will play the leading role opposite him.

Lin Qingye contacted several main creative staff, and asked the secretary to notify some other supporting actors with more weight.

After the busy work, Lin Qingye came to the window, stretched his body and took a long breath, the corners of his mouth could not stop rising, and he was ready to do a big job.

Anti-criminal investigation dramas are relatively unpopular themes in the film and television industry. There are few works that have achieved good results. Moreover, this time there is the support of the General Administration of Culture. He has a strong intuition that "Kuangdu" will definitely become a hit.

Although this is the first time that Lin Qingye has come into contact with this type of theme, the difficulty of which is self-evident, but after understanding the script, he really wants to challenge it.

Lin Qingye withdrew his thoughts and thought about the next work in his mind. The actors have been confirmed, and the preparation of props and venues must be accelerated.

On the other side.

Zhang Shengwen put his mobile phone aside and continued to study the script attentively.

The most important task at the moment is to master the script and roles before the TV series starts.

Whether you can seize this opportunity depends on how well you master the characters in the future.

The agent opened the door quietly and took a look at Zhang Shengwen who was studying the script without interrupting him.

Sitting on the sofa, he poured himself a cup of tea and tasted it happily. After he was in a good mood, the tea that used to have no taste seemed to become much more delicious.

The agent put the cup on the coffee table, and lay on the sofa, looking at the ceiling with a silly smile on his face.

He had not yet recovered from his excitement. He remembered that day when Zhang Shengwen said that he was going to audition for the Brilliant Entertainment Company. He did not take it seriously at all, thinking that he would just make up the numbers.

Is it because my vision is not good? The agent doubted himself a little in his heart.

Zhang Shengwen has been under his command for five or six years. At this age, it is harder than climbing to the sky to become popular.

The agent even thought that in a few years, Zhang Shengwen would soon be at the age of retirement, and his life would be like this.

However, Zhang Shengwen actually got the role of the second male lead in the play written by Tan Yue.

"When did you come back?"

Zhang Shengwen's voice brought him back to reality.

"I just sat down and saw you were studying the script, so I didn't disturb you." The agent stood up and said, "Leave the small job of fetching water to me, and you can focus all your energy on the script."

"No, no."

"Just leave it to me." The very "realistic" agent snatched the cup from Zhang Shengwen's hand and said, "Wait for me."

"This" Zhang Shengwen smiled helplessly and had to sit back, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

Not long after, the agent came back with a cup of hot water.

"Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for? It's all trivial matters. You go ahead and I won't disturb you."

"I have something to tell you." Zhang Shengwen put down the script in his hand and said, "Director Lin Qingye just called and asked me to go to the dinner party on Saturday."

"Go, of course I have to go. I have to go." The agent said excitedly, "This is a good opportunity to meet other actors. Maybe I can see Tan Yue."

Whenever there is a dinner party of the crew, the agent will let them go. The wine table is a good opportunity to expand the scope of friends. For a small actor, maybe one day he will be remembered by the director and have the opportunity to continue to take on roles.

"I have agreed." Zhang Shengwen nodded and said, "I think I can gain some experience."

The agent held his chin and observed Zhang Shengwen carefully, saying, "Come out with me."

"What for?"

Zhang Shengwen was confused.

"Of course, we should buy a suitable dress." The agent said, "Your dress is not suitable for such an important occasion. Let's buy a good one, so that we can save face when the time comes."

"No need." Zhang Shengwen refused with a smile: "I have clothes, no need to buy more."

"Really?" The agent had never seen Zhang Shengwen wear any decent clothes, so he was a little suspicious.

"Don't worry."

The agent was still a little worried: "Bring the clothes you want to wear here tomorrow, I'll take a look at them for you. If they are not suitable, we still have time to buy new ones."

Zhang Shengwen agreed.

Brilliant Entertainment Company, President's Office.

Tan Yue was interrupted by a knock on the door while looking at the documents in his hand.

"Come in."

"Mr. Tan." Chen Ye opened the door and came in, saying, "Director Lin Qingye has scheduled a dinner for the crew at Tianling Hotel, this Saturday night at six o'clock."

Tan Yue said, "Okay, I know."

There was no work arrangement that day, so Tan Yue still wanted to go over to have a meal with everyone, mainly to get to know Zhang Shengwen.

The two had only met once, and it was because of work.

Tan Yue wanted to see what kind of person Zhang Shengwen was like. Maybe there would be a chance to continue to cooperate in the future.

After Chen Ye left, Tan Yue lowered his head and continued to process the documents.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye.

Ruishan Community.

During the rare weekend break, Tan Yue and Chen Ziyu lay on the sofa to watch a movie.

"This movie is good."

As the movie ended, subtitles began to appear.

Tan Yue picked up a small piece of cut watermelon and fed it to Chen Ziyu.

Chen Ziyu chewed the watermelon and said, "Haven't you seen it?"

Tan Yue shook his head and said, "No."

"I didn't expect that you haven't seen such a classic movie yet." Chen Ziyu remembered that this should be a classic foreign movie in the 1980s. Although the box office was not high at the time, the subsequent influence was still very large.

Tan Yue spread his hands and said, "There were so many classic movies in the past, how could I have seen them all."

Chen Ziyu nodded thoughtfully. During the break, the two of them often lay at home to watch some old movies, many of which she had not seen either.

Tan Yue pressed the pause button on the remote control.

Chen Ziyu stretched lazily, lying in Tan Yue's arms, and said, "What shall we eat tonight?"

Tan Yue touched Chen Ziyu's soft hair: "Ziyu, I have a dinner party tonight, you can eat at home by yourself."

"What dinner party?"

"The dinner party of the crew of "Kuang Biu". Director Lin organized a party. There are several new actors this time, and everyone is gathered together for a meal."

"I heard that the actor who plays the second male lead this time is a less famous actor?"

Tan Yue nodded and said, "Yes, this person's temperament is somewhat similar to the character in the play, and his acting skills are also very good. He can take on this role."

Chen Ziyu smiled and said, "Other people choose artists with a lot of traffic to ensure ratings, but you always play cards out of the ordinary."

Tan Yue smiled and said nothing. Everyone has a shining point. It depends on whether the director can tap the potential of the actors. Especially old actors like Zhang Shengwen, who have no shortage of acting skills, just lack a chance to soar to the sky.

"It should be almost time, right?"

Tan Yue picked up his phone and looked at the time. It was 5:36. He said, "It's time to leave."

At this time on the weekend, the traffic on the road is heavier. It's better to leave early to avoid being late.

Chen Ziyu said with concern, "Drink less alcohol at night."

Tan Yue said "hmm" lightly and kissed Chen Ziyu on the forehead: "I'm leaving. There are still a lot of dishes in the refrigerator. You can make some. Don't order takeout."

"I know. Be safe on the road."

Tan Yue changed his clothes, drove out, and went straight to Tianling Hotel.

Tianling Hotel, Plum Blossom Hall.

With the arrival of the crew of "Crazy", the whole hall became lively.

Some have been here many times, and some are here for the first time. You can see the excitement on their faces.

"The Brilliant Entertainment Company is so impressive that they have dinner in such a high-end hotel."

"The company often has dinner here. Look at those people playing with their phones. They are obviously from the Brilliant Company and have been here many times."

"I have said the word envious enough, but I still can't help but want to say that I am jealous."

"Look, Director Lin is here."

After Lin Qingye arrived, many people gathered around him and greeted him.

"Everyone, please sit down. Don't be polite."

"Director Lin." Zhang Shengwen came forward to greet him.

Lin Qingye said politely: "Teacher Zhang, when did you arrive?"

"I just arrived not long ago."

Zhang Shengwen was dressed simply and decently, and this was his own clothes.

The agent suggested that he dress more formally, but he refused. This was a dinner party, not a red carpet.

The two sat together and chatted for a while, then they saw Zhou Can, Zhang Wenhua, Ma Guoliang and others coming in from the door.

Zhang Shengwen was not only shocked but also shocked.

These people are all very famous actors in the industry. No matter who they are, their rankings and popularity are completely different from mine, and I will appear in the same TV series as them next.

Lin Qingye began to introduce: "This is the second male lead in the play, Teacher Zhang Shengwen."

"Hello!" Zhang Shengwen was a little embarrassed, feeling like he was playing tricks on Guan Gong.

"Hello, Teacher Zhang." This time Zhou Can was the first to come out and shake hands: "I didn't expect you to be the second male lead in this drama."

Seeing the confusion on Lin Qingye's face, Zhang Shengwen explained: "The two of us met in Mr. Tan's office before."

"That's great." Lin Qingye said, "Zhou Can is the male lead in this drama."

Zhang Shengwen was stunned. The last time the two of them met, they were still dreaming about working with Zhou Can. Unexpectedly, the fantasy had become a reality now.

"Please give me some advice!"

Zhou Can said: "I have to ask you for advice."

Zhang Shengwen excitedly shook hands with Zhang Wenhua, Ma Guoliang and others.

"It seems you all know each other now!"

A familiar voice interrupted everyone's chat.

"Mr. Tan."

"Mr. Tan."

Not only Lin Qingye, but also other people in the Plum Blossom Hall came over to say hello to Tan Yue.

After Tan Yue responded, everyone sat down.

"Mr. Tan, sit here." Lin Qingye pulled out the chair in the middle of the main table.

Tan Yue waved his hand and refused: "You should take this seat today."

After all, the director of this drama is Lin Qingye. In China's national conditions, the director is the leader of a film and television work.

"This won't work."

"Sit down, Director Lin."

Seeing Tan Yue's attitude, everyone began to persuade him. After everyone's persuasion, Lin Qingye had no choice but to sit on the main seat.

"Teacher Zhang, please sit next to Zhou Can." Lin Qingye noticed that Zhang Shengwen was a little reserved.

"Teacher Zhang, please sit down."

"Thank you, thank you, I'll do it myself."

Zhang Shengwen took the chair from Zhou Can.

After everyone sat down, the waiter began to serve the food.

After pouring the wine, Lin Qingye picked up the glass, stood up and said, "First of all, thank you Mr. Tan for your support, otherwise I would not have the opportunity to direct such a drama."

He drank one glass of wine and picked up the second glass: "It will be hard for everyone in the next period of time. We will all work together to perfectly present Mr. Tan's drama on the screen."

"Finally, I wish "Kurdant" a huge success in ratings!"

After Lin Qingye drank three glasses of wine in a row, the atmosphere at the scene became lively.
