Chapter 911 Audition for "Forrest Gump", Ma Guoliang Finished Filming

on Monday.

Bright Entertainment Company, President's Office.

As soon as Tan Yue arrived at the office, Chen Ye delivered a stack of documents. Every Monday and the end of the month and the beginning of the month were the times with the most documents. Each department had to report and summarize the previous week's situation.

I have long been accustomed to this kind of life.

"Put it on the table first." Tan Yue picked up the cup, poured out the tea leaves, and made himself another cup of his favorite green tea.

A cup of strong green tea early in the morning can help refresh your mind.

Chen Ye placed several folders in front of the computer, with several important documents on top. They needed to be sent back after they were signed.

Tan Yue came to the desk with a teacup, put down the teacup, picked up a pen and started working on the documents. He was thinking that there was an audition for "Forrest Gump" today and he didn't plan to take a break in the middle.

He had high expectations for the movie "Forrest Gump", so he decided to go to the audition site to have a look.

Around nine o'clock, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Zheng Tong opened the door and came in. He looked at Tan Yue and said, "Mr. Tan, the audition for "Forrest Gump" is ready and will officially start at half past nine."

Because most of the actors who came to audition were artists under the company, everyone had arrived in the conference room before nine o'clock.

The four artists from other companies on the list also came to Bright Entertainment Company very early.

These are all small-role scenes, and their improvisation is not required. Everyone's audition role requirements are directly given to them.

This half hour is left for them to prepare.

Zheng Tong just rushed over from the conference room to report the situation to Tan Yue.

Tan Yue glanced at the time and the last document in his hand, nodded and said: "Okay, I understand. There should be a lot of work to be done on site. You can go back and do your work. I will go there later."

There was still half an hour before the audition started, and he estimated that he would be able to process the documents before the audition started.

"Okay, Mr. Tan, I'll go back first." The audition is about to begin, and Zheng Tong still has many things to do.

"Go ahead."

Zheng Tong nodded and hurriedly left the office. He wanted to go back and confirm again whether there were any mistakes.

He was now fortunate to have reserved a spot in advance. He had previously considered that Mr. Tan always treated his works strictly and carefully. Although this time he was auditioning for a small role, he might come, and that was indeed the case.

Moreover, Tan Yue also participated in the audition for "Hurry Up" some time ago. In that drama, Tan Yue was only the screenwriter, not the director.

In the office, Tan Yue lowered his head and continued to concentrate on processing the documents. He looked up again and saw that the time was already nine-twenty. He immediately picked up the landline and answered Chen Ye's call: "Xiao Ye, come here."

Chen Ye knocked on the door and came in.

"Xiao Ye, these are some documents that I have processed. You can send them back. The top ones are the documents from the artist department. Let them revise them and send them to me in the afternoon." Tan Yue continued: "I will take a look at it later. Audition, if anything comes up, come to me in the film department.”

"OK."

Chen Ye took the folder and left the office.

Tan Yue stood up from the chair, stretched and moved his neck. His whole body suddenly felt much more comfortable: "After a while, you won't have to sit like this all the time when filming."

He would rather be tired from filming than sit in the office all the time.

Tan Yue put the documents on the desktop on the shelf, picked up the still warm cup, drank the remaining half cup of water in one gulp, and then headed to the film department.

In a conference room.

Zheng Tong raised his wrist, looked at the time on his watch, and said, "It's almost half past nine. Get ready and start right away."

The three supervisors looked up the information about the first role and the information about the audition actors.

The judges for today's audition are the four of them and Tan Yue.

This conference room was specially prepared for auditions. Apart from a few tables, there was nothing else, and most of the space was reserved for actors to perform.

Next door to this conference room are actors waiting for auditions. They are all from the same company and are relatively familiar with each other.

Some people are actively preparing for the next audition, and some are talking and chatting.

"Mr. Tan!?"

Someone in the conference room screamed in surprise, and everyone in the conference room looked at the door.

Tan Yue naturally heard it, waved at the door, and left.

However, the whole conference room seemed to explode and became lively.

"I have a hunch that there won't be Mr. Tan among the judges for today's audition, right?"

"It seems like this is the case!"

"What's going on? Mr. Tan actually came to be the judge today. Wouldn't this kill me? I'm a little nervous after thinking about the scene."

"You can see how nervous I am now by looking at my trembling hands."

"It's great to have Mr. Tan here. This is a rare opportunity."

"That's right. Maybe I will be spotted by Mr. Tan one day and participate in one of his movies."

Everything was said in the conference room, but of course the four artists from other companies looked confused and nervous.

Based on their own reputation, they only auditioned for a small role, but they didn't expect to meet Tan Yue.

Tan Yue came to the small conference room next door.

"Mr. Tan." Zheng Tong and the three supervisors stood up to say hello.

Tan Yue nodded in response and said, "It's almost time, let's get started."

Tan Yue sat among the four people, and Zheng said: "Inform the first person to audition to come in."

"Okay." The staff came to the next meeting room and said, "The audition begins. Those who hear the name go to the next room. First, Lin Fan."

Lin Fan took a deep breath, his eyes were firm, and he was determined to get this role.

After coming to the next room, Lin Fan was visibly panicked, and he stuttered a little when introducing himself.

He has been in the company for a while, but it is the first time he has met Tan Yue face to face.

"Don't be nervous, I'll give you a few minutes to adjust your state." Tan Yue smiled and comforted.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tan, I'm a little excited." Lin Fan is a loyal fan of Tan Yue. It was because of Tan Yue that he came to Brilliant Entertainment Company.

"I understand. I'll get used to it after seeing him more often in the future." Tan Yue didn't want to make the atmosphere tense, which was not conducive to the performance of the actors.

Lin Fan took a deep breath to adjust his state, nodded and said, "I'm ready."

Zheng Tong said, "Let's start."

The audition for the supporting role of "Forrest Gump" officially began.

Tan Yue spent most of his time watching from the sidelines, listening to Zheng Tong and the other three film department heads' comments on each actor. He would only express his own opinions when he was undecided.

The actors selected by Zheng Tong had appeared in many film and television works, so their acting skills were naturally good.

But the audition still depends on personal performance. Those who perform well can pass, and those who perform poorly will be eliminated directly.

Zheng Tong strictly controls the selection of each role.

More than an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the audition of "Forrest Gump" is still going on.

After the audition actors went out, Tan Yue said, "You continue, I'll go back to the office first."

The audition of the supporting roles with more roles has ended, and the remaining supporting roles have fewer roles in the movie. Zheng Tong is fully capable of selecting suitable actors on his own.

"Send the list to my office after it comes out."

"Okay."

Tan Yue got up and left the audition site.

Zheng Tong took a sip of water from the cup and said, "The actors' performances today are pretty good."

Manager Liu smiled and said, "It may be related to Mr. Tan being here. Everyone is working hard."

Several people nodded in agreement, agreeing with this statement. After all, performing well and leaving a deep impression in front of Tan Yue is an opportunity for them.

The four people rested for a while, and Zheng Tong said, "Go on, let the next actor come in."

Because there are fewer roles, only a small part is shown to the audience, so the audition speed has increased.

But Zheng Tong and the other four did not relax at all, and still selected actors with extremely strict standards.

The success of a movie is inseparable from every role.

The number of actors waiting in the next meeting room is getting smaller and smaller, and everyone is chatting casually.

"I wonder when we can become the protagonist of Mr. Tan's movie?"

"Don't daydream, just work hard to hone your acting skills. It's good enough to have a role."

"I don't know whose movie this time? It hasn't appeared yet? Strange."

"I'm not sure. The judges of the audition are several executives of the company and Mr. Zheng. I don't know who the director is yet."

Tan Yue returned to the office.

Chen Ye knocked on the door and followed in: "Mr. Tan, here is a document that needs your signature."

Tan Yue took the document and put it on the desk, picked up a cup of warm water to relieve his dry throat, and then read the document.

Unknowingly, more than an hour has passed.

"Knock, knock, knock." There was a knock on the door.

Tan Yue took the massager off his neck and said, "Come in."

"Mr. Tan." The person who came in was Zheng Tong.

Tan Yue asked, "Is it over?"

"Yes, the casting is over." Zheng Tong handed over a folder and said, "This is the list of people who passed the audition, please take a look."

After the audition, the roles were directly determined, and Zheng Tong came to the office to deliver the documents without stopping.

Tan Yue took the document, looked at it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Well done, you have worked hard today."

The list of actors for "Forrest Gump" has basically been determined, and preparations for the start of filming have to be made.

Zheng Tong smiled and said nothing. As long as Tan Yue is satisfied, no matter how hard it is, he thinks it should be done, after all, he is the director of the film department.

It is also a great benefit for him that the movie has achieved good box office results.

Tan Yue put down the list, saw that it was already past twelve o'clock, and stood up and said, "Call Manager Liu and the other three people and ask them to go to the restaurant to wait for us and have lunch together."

Chen Ziyu went out of town to participate in an event yesterday for three days and will not be back until tomorrow.

"Okay." Zheng Tong looked happy, and he could take advantage of the meal time to learn more about the film.

Tan Yue put the computer into sleep mode. After Zheng Tong informed Manager Liu, the two went to the company's restaurant together.

Half a month later.

In a southern city, the crew of "Kuangbi".

Lin Qingye held the intercom and stared at the monitor without blinking.

Now filming is Ma Guoliang's last scene in the crew. As long as this one passes, all his scenes will be finished.

Ma Guoliang showed his explosive acting skills under the camera.

"Cut."

Ma Guoliang took a deep breath and has not yet come out of the role.

Lin Qingye carefully looked at the group of pictures just shot. After a moment, he said: "Okay, congratulations to Mr. Ma for finishing!"

Warm applause broke out at the scene.

Lin Qingye came over with a bouquet of flowers and said, "Congratulations, Teacher Ma."

"Thank you, thank you." Ma Guoliang accepted the flowers sheepishly. Every actor who finished his scene would receive a bouquet of flowers.

"Teacher Ma, your performance during this period is really outstanding." Lin Qingye said, couldn't help but stretch out his thumb and said with emotion: "Your acting skills are now perfect."

"You are looking up to me too much. I'm still far away from that step."

Lin Qingye shook his head and said: "Don't be humble, you are strong, very strong!"

The two have collaborated many times, and every time Lin Qingye sees Ma Guoliang, he feels that he is always improving.

And this time, I was even more impressed by Ma Guoliang's acting skills.

Lin Qingye even thinks that Ma Guoliang can definitely be ranked among the top three actors of his age.

"Thank you, Director Lin, for your compliment."

"Thank you everyone, you have worked hard during this time."

Ma Guoliang bent down to thank every staff member on the set. In his heart, every step he took forward was inseparable from the staff behind the camera.

"Director Lin, I have prepared milk tea for everyone, it should arrive soon." Ma Guoliang specially asked his assistant to buy milk tea to thank everyone, and said: "You can distribute it to everyone then, and I will go to remove my makeup first."

"Thank you for everyone."

"Goodbye, Director Lin."

"Be safe on the road."

Lin Qingye was very emotional when he saw Ma Guoliang leaving.

I originally thought that Ma Guoliang's scenes would take more time to shoot, but his scenes were basically shot in one take, and the filming time was much earlier than expected.

The same sentiments were shared by all the staff on the set.

"Teacher Ma is really awesome. If I remember correctly, I did it all over again."

"I have never seen an actor like Teacher Ma since I started in the industry."

"Maybe this is the amazing acting skill that everyone talks about!"

"If we have a few more actors like Teacher Ma, we'll probably be able to shoot everything much faster."

Ma Guoliang came to the dressing room and before he started taking off his makeup, he found a quiet place and dialed Tan Yue's number.

"Mr. Tan, my role on the set has been filmed and has just been completed."

"So fast!" Tan Yue said with a bit of surprise. He had also seen the approximate shooting time of Ma Guoliang's scenes in "Hurry Up".

"Yes, the overall shooting went relatively smoothly, so it was completed a little earlier than expected."

"When will you come back?" Ma Guoliang's scene was over, and Tan Yue thought that he could speed up the progress of "Forrest Gump" here.

"Tickets for tonight."

"Well, come to the company to see me tomorrow. I have something important to tell you."

"Okay, Mr. Tan." Ma Guoliang put down the phone. He was very excited and had the urge to go back to the company now. He had a hunch that it must be something very important.
