Chapter 913 High Hopes

"Give me some time." Ma Guoliang was unsure. After so many years in the industry, this was the first time he had played this type of role. He needed to think about it carefully.

"No problem."

Ma Guoliang was studying the character's biography while watching the audition clip.

"Forrest Gump" was able to achieve such great success because of his tenacious and unyielding character. On the other hand, it can be said that he was forced to do so.

When "Forrest Gump", who was walking unsteadily with a splint, was humiliated and ridiculed by his companions, he twisted his hard legs with great effort, trying to get rid of his companions' malicious and unreasonable entanglement.

"Forrest Gump" ran forward in a funny and awkward manner, but those naughty and serious companions still did not let him go and chased him on bicycles one by one. "Forrest Gump" ran forward with all his strength, but even the solid steel plate was taken off.

"Forrest Gump" desperately relied on his legs to leave behind those companions who were chasing him on bicycles, leaving those companions who discriminated against him helpless and helpless. In this way, 'Forrest Gump' not only got rid of the dilemma of being chased, but also mastered the skill of running fast.

Seeing this place, Ma Guoliang thought of his hometown when he was a child: when a kitten strolling in the alley met a puppy unexpectedly, the puppy immediately chased the kitten with lightning speed. The kitten suddenly had an idea and climbed up the persimmon tree in front. The puppy couldn't climb the tree, cried a few times, and could only leave in disappointment.

There is a saying in my hometown: If the cat doesn't climb the tree, the dog will chase it from behind!

'Forrest Gump' went from walking unsteadily with a splint to the fastest runner, which was also forced by those who discriminated against his physical defects.

"Mr. Tan, can you give me a pen? I want to write something."

Tan Yue took a pen from the pen holder and handed it to Ma Guoliang.

"Thank you." Ma Guoliang took advantage of his understanding of the role to write down his feelings on paper.

It shouldn't be over for a while, so Tan Yue picked up a document and started reading it.

Ma Guoliang took a deep breath, looked at what he had written, and digested it again. He had already filled an A4 paper with his writing.

Just like his script, he covered every aspect of the plot, what kind of actions to use, and what small details to pay attention to.

Time passed by.

"Mr. Tan, I'm ready."

Tan Yue put down the file and said with a smile: "Okay, let's get started."

Ma Guoliang closed his eyes and recalled the information he had just searched online. He had a general understanding of IQ 75, personal life can be taken care of, social life is not a big problem, and can engage in simple labor and technical operations. Of course, there are still some obstacles in some aspects, and there is a lack of flexibility in doing things, which is what everyone sees as "stupid".

Ma Guoliang took a breath, and when he opened his eyes, the whole person changed differently.

Tan Yue nodded meaningfully. It was completely impossible for Ma Guoliang to fully grasp the character's personality in such a short time, but he already had that taste, which was quite good.

Ma Guoliang spoke his lines with great emotion, gradually blending into the role. There was no trace of "Xu Jiang" in "The Storm". Even if he himself did not realize it, he had completely walked out of the role in less than a day.

"Good, good, wonderful." After Ma Guoliang's performance, Tan Yue could not help but applaud.

At the beginning, Ma Guoliang's performance had some flaws, but the performance got better and better.

Tan Yue praised: "It seems that the crew of "The Storm" has a very accurate evaluation of you. It is really wonderful to be able to grasp so many details in such a short time."

After the filming of "The Truman Show" was completed, Tan Yue clearly felt that Ma Guoliang's acting skills had been further improved.

"There are still many shortcomings." After the performance, Ma Guoliang found that there were many small details that were not mastered well, and they needed to be improved later.

"It's already very good." Tan Yue believes that few actors can master such a difficult role so well in such a short time.

In fact, Ma Guoliang's performance was completely beyond Tan Yue's expectations. He picked up the folder at hand and said, "This is the script of the movie. I'll give it to you."

"Thank you, Mr. Tan." Ma Guoliang nodded heavily to thank him.

"The movie will take some time to prepare. Familiarize yourself with the script. If you have any questions, you can come to me." Tan Yue felt that with Ma Guoliang's current acting skills, he should not encounter any difficulties.

"Okay."

The two chatted in the office for a while before Ma Guoliang left the office and closed the door. Finally, he could no longer suppress his excitement and slapped the script in his hand.

After the filming of "The Truman Show" was finished, he thought he would not have the opportunity to star in Tan Yue's new movie for some time.

After all, there are many artists in the company, and there are many who are better than himself. They also need the company's training.

I didn't expect that I would continue to have the opportunity to play a role in Tan Yue's new movie, and it was still the protagonist.

Ma Guoliang unknowingly quickened his pace and got on the elevator. Just hearing the plot outline was very interesting. He now wanted to take a closer look at the complete script.

Chen Ye happened to see Ma Guoliang leaving, and was sure that he was not mistaken.

Ma Guoliang had indeed gained weight, and it was concentrated on his waist, hips and thighs.

Actors have always attached great importance to their body management. Chen Ye thought that Ma Guoliang should have changed so that he could be more suitable for the role in the TV series.

When Ma Guoliang pressed the floor button, he suddenly remembered his promise, so he decided to go find him first.

"Dong-dong-dong, dong-dong-dong."

"Come in."

Xu Nuo squinted his eyes and looked at Ma Guoliang's overjoyed look, and said, "I said it must be a good thing that Mr. Tan is looking for you. Please share what it is?"

Ma Guoliang smiled so hard that he almost reached his ears. He shook off the script in his hand and said happily: "Mr. Tan asked me to play a role."

"It must be a big role." Xu Nuo touched his chin and pretended to think: "Let me guess, is he the protagonist?"

Ma Guoliang nodded quickly and laughed.

"Congratulations! Teacher Ma." Xu Nuo sighed: "There will soon be no room for you in the country."

What Xu Nuo is talking about is of course the box office performance. Among the current domestic actors, Ma Guoliang deserves to be ranked first in cumulative box office. The box office performance of just one "The World" is enough for other actors to catch up.

"That's not the case." For some people, they would have drifted away from the earth after seeing such results, but Ma Guoliang can always stick to his true intentions.

Seeing that Ma Guoliang got the script for the new movie, Xu Nuo was also happy for his friend.

No one can interfere with Tan Yue's casting. Every time I think of Ma Guoliang, it means that Ma Guoliang's acting skills are getting better and better.

"How about having a drink tonight to celebrate?"

"This" Ma Guoliang hesitated for a moment.

"This is such a big happy event. If I don't have a drink, I always feel like I'm missing something." Xu Nuo didn't care about the fat on his belly at all. The main reason was that he hadn't drank for a long time. When he talked about drinking, the alcohol bug in his stomach was immediately hooked out. .

"It's indeed a good thing, but forget it. I'll have a drink with you after the movie is finished." Ma Guoliang thought for a while and refused.

"Ah?" Xunuo frowned: "Mr. Ma, you just got the script. The movie is probably still in the preparation stage. It will probably take at least half a year to film! Having a drink today will not affect your work."

Three good drinking buddies. Zhou Can is filming a TV series and he doesn't know how long it will take. Ma Guoliang still has to wait until the filming is finished. Xu Nuo thinks that time feels a bit long ago.

He doesn't really like drinking alone. He doesn't have much trouble, and he can't enjoy himself without someone to drink with him.

Ma Guoliang said slightly embarrassed: "It has nothing to do with work. I can't help myself. Please be considerate."

He usually takes a few sips when he has nothing to do. Since he got hemorrhoids, he rarely drinks alcohol. Now he wants to take a few sips more than he promised, but his physical condition does not allow it.

"Oh~" Xu Nuo said with a look of sudden realization, "It can't be"

Ma Guoliang nodded sheepishly.

"It's been so long and you still haven't recovered?"

"Hey, there's nothing I can do. The weather has been too hot recently. I'm still outside all the time, and it keeps relapsing."

Xu Nuo scratched his head: "It's not a problem if it's not good all the time. How about going to the hospital for an operation?"

"Let's see again later."

Previously, Ma Guoliang was thinking that after the filming of "Hurry Up" was completed, if it didn't feel better, he would go to the hospital for an operation.

The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and I didn't expect that a new movie, or a Tan Yue movie, would be seamlessly connected, so the surgery was going to be postponed.

Moreover, he has to temporarily stop drinking and eating during this period. He cannot delay filming because of such things.

Xu Nuo regretted, "That's all we have to do now."

Last time, Ma Guoliang suffered from hemorrhoids because the two of them were drinking. Next, Ma Guoliang had to film a movie, so he could tell the difference between the serious and the serious.

"Then it's agreed that after your movie is over, we'll have a big drink and invite Zhou Can to join us."

"No problem, I'll treat you when the time comes, and we won't go home until we get drunk." Ma Guoliang readily agreed.

This time I made up my mind. Even if the hemorrhoids are not healed by then, no matter how much pain I endure, I will have a drink.

"This is the Teacher Ma I know." In Xu Nuo's impression, he never refused Ma Guoliang when he invited her for a drink.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The secretary came in, looked at Xu Nuo and said, "There is a document here that needs to be signed."

Ma Guoliang picked up the script and biographies and stood up, saying: "You go ahead and do your work. I'll go back first. There are more important things to do."

The most important thing is to study the script. After getting the script, you still don’t know what it looks like?

"Don't forget about drinking."

"I won't forget it. I'm leaving." After Ma Guoliang left the office holding the script, he quickened his pace and walked towards the elevator.

"What document?" Xu Nuo also started working here.

President's office.

Tan Yue fell into deep thought while looking at the optimization reform plan submitted by the artist department.

Recently, many new artists have joined the company.

As a first-class entertainment company in the country, it is not just for artists to join if they want to. However, everyone who has been selected by Bright Entertainment Company has gone through strict screening and is quite capable.

Even if Cuican Entertainment Company can attract a large amount of resources by relying on its own influence, the company has more artists. In order to allow more artists to have room for development and obtain more resources, Tan Yue asked the artist department to propose a solution to this matter. .

Tan Yue shook his head and seemed not very satisfied.

There is a suggestion in the plan to sort the artists according to their levels. Those with higher levels will naturally be able to allocate more resources.

On the one hand, it is to encourage artists to keep working hard to get better resources. On the other hand, it is also to better allocate resources.

But for artists without works, they start slower than others, and it is difficult to turn over under this policy.

The good ones are getting better and better, while the bad ones will only get worse, which does not conform to Tan Yue's idea.

Every artist is carefully selected by the company, and miracles may happen to everyone. Giving them resources is giving them more opportunities.

Tan Yue put down the documents, got up and went to the window to rest. There are still many places that need to be adjusted in this plan of the artist department. He did not sign it and sent it back.

The weather today is not very good. The sun is blocked by dark clouds and there is a drizzle in the sky.

The takeaway boy who shuttled through the rain has put on his raincoat, and there are many more vehicles on the road than usual.

Tan Yue looked out the window and saw a flash of lightning sliding across the sky, followed by a loud "boom" that resounded through the sky, opening the curtain of heavy rain.

It only took a few seconds for the window to pour down with a "swoosh".

The weather was not very good when I went to work in the morning. After such a long period of accumulation, it finally rained, bringing a touch of freshness to the hot weather.

Tan Yue still likes the weather at this time, and can't help but stay by the window for a while.

Although the visibility is very low now, except for the red taillights that can be vaguely noticed, nothing else can be seen.

Under normal circumstances, such rain comes and goes quickly. After more than ten minutes, it gradually becomes smaller and the vision becomes clearer.

Tan Yue opened the window a little, and a cool air blew in immediately, which was much more comfortable than air conditioning. Stretching and yawning, the whole person felt much more energetic. Sitting back in the office chair, he opened the cast of "Forrest Gump" on the computer. The protagonist is Ma Guoliang and the heroine is Liu Qian.

He flipped through the information of each actor. He will be the director of this movie and needs to have enough knowledge of every actor in the crew.

Tan Yue has high hopes for the movie "Forrest Gump".

The selection of actors has been completed, and the preparation of the movie will begin next.

Tan Yue picked up the phone and called Chen Ye over.

"Mr. Tan." Chen Ye knocked on the door and came in.

Tan Yue said, "Xiao Ye, go to the film department and call Mr. Zheng over for me."

Chen Ye responded and turned around to inform Zheng Tong.
