Chapter 377 Role Selection
Although Han Tong is not very popular, he is still famous. He has received quite a few roles in various film and television dramas, and he can still afford a house in Beijing.
After getting off the plane, he said goodbye to his agent and assistant first, and took a car back to his home.
The next day, an agent drove to pick him up and went to the iQiyi Film Building early.
"Hello, Director Jiang!"
In the super luxurious office, Han Tong and his agent greeted Jiang Heng together.
"Sit down, sit down, filming in Hengdian?"
Han Tong hurriedly explained: "It's a costume drama, there are not many roles!"
The agent added, "Everything is based on Director Jiang's side!"
Jiang Heng smiled, "It's not very urgent. It is estimated that the start of filming will wait until the end of September. It will take more than ten days. Can it be handled?"
The agent said: "Yes, yes, it won't take that long, and I will definitely be back on time!"
Jiang Heng nodded slightly, and immediately called Cui Zhenzhen in to take Han Tong to make up.
In fact, with the "super microcomputer", the effect of each actor after makeup can be simulated.
But since he had been called from afar for the audition, he had to do his best.
After more than half an hour, Han Tong, who had put on makeup and changed clothes, came in.
Jiang Heng nodded slightly, stood up and walked around, and thought it was pretty good.
The story line happened before the birth of human civilization. The costumes of the Wu tribe were naturally not gorgeous, but they were not the kind of Roman style that was "not covered by clothes".
In general, the style was simple and looked very plain.
If there was any shortcoming, it was Han Tong's figure, which was still a little thin.
"If you have time, do some exercise and train your muscles!"
Han Tong was terrified when he heard it. Was this a little bit off?
The agent hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Director Jiang, we will do crazy muscle building exercises before joining the group!"
"Well, don't be too tired, go sign the contract!"
"Oh, okay, thank you Director Jiang, thank you Director Jiang!"
Han Tong and his agent left Jiang Heng's office with many thanks, and under Cui Zhenzhen's leadership, went to the legal department to sign the contract.
After all, it is already the first film and television group company in China. There are special staff to discuss contracts and remuneration. Jiang Heng just decides who to use.
After signing the contract, Han Tong returned again and thanked again.
Then he went to the screenwriter department and got a plot outline, which was limited to Hou Yi's role.
After leaving the iQiyi Film Building, the agent could no longer hide his excitement, "Xiao Han, you are really successful this time, you are really going to be popular!"
Han Tong also thought so, but the movie has not been filmed yet, so he dare not be too happy.
"Well, this is really a godsend opportunity, we must seize it!"
"Of course, let's celebrate?"
Han Tong thought for a while and said, "I'd better send the script outline home first. If it is accidentally lost, it will be a big deal!"
The agent nodded and agreed.
To be honest, he cares more about the role of Hou Yi than Han Tong now. After all, if Han Tong succeeds in becoming a first-line star, he will also rise with the tide!
The two of them sent the script outline home before finding another place to drink.
Jiang Heng, after deciding on the actor for Hou Yi, began to think about the candidate for Chang'e.
At first, he wanted to invite a group of actresses to audition.
But later he found that there were too many things to do in the preparation of this film, so he decided to keep everything simple.
After all, if the filming cannot start earlier, it will affect the release of the film next year!
After a number of well-known actresses in the circle flashed through his mind, Jiang Heng thought of an actress who had played Chang'e and was well received - Yan Xinchen.
He had never met Yan Xinchen, but Huang Xiaoming was her classmate, so he thought they were connected.
Besides, there were many famous characters in this play, and Huang Xiaoming was also an old acquaintance of his, so he still needed him to come and play a role.
Thinking of this, Jiang Heng directly called Huang Xiaoming, who was already very excited.
"Director Jiang, do you need me to audition?"
"Well, don't get excited, the male lead has been decided!"
"Oh, oh, it's decided!"
Huang Xiaoming wanted to ask, do you think I still have a chance?
But he also knew Jiang Heng's character, once he made a decision, it was almost impossible to change it.
It seems that he can't get the male lead of this play. Director Jiang called to invite him to play a supporting role.
The supporting role of Director Jiang's new film is also a resource that many people dream of!
"Then why are you calling?"
"Well, it's like this, there is a role with a lot of scenes in the film, the great wizard Xingtian, and I want to invite him to play!"
"No problem, no problem!"
"As for the schedule, it's no problem!"
"You asked, of course it's no problem!" Huang Xiaoming laughed.
Jiang Heng said, "You and Yan Xinchen are classmates?"
"Yes, you are looking for her?"
"There is an important role, and I want to invite her to audition. Can you notify her for me?"
If it was someone else, Jiang Heng would only ask someone to find Yan Xinchen's contact information and let the staff call her.
But Huang Xiaoming is quite "loyal", so Jiang Heng asked him to notify her on his behalf.
Huang Xiaoming was really willing to do this, "Okay, okay, Director Jiang, don't worry, I will personally accompany her to the company for an interview tomorrow!"
After hanging up the phone, Huang Xiaoming sighed slightly. Who would want to play a supporting role if they can play the leading role!
And with his current status in the circle, it is almost impossible for him to play a supporting role for others in other movies.
But these unspoken rules that have been agreed upon in the industry are all invalid in Jiang Heng's films.
You think you are a first-tier star and don't want to play a supporting role for a second-tier star?
There are many people willing to act!
Besides, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent have so many resources. If you have a good cooperative relationship with Jiang Heng, you may get the role at any time.
If you dare to refuse, you don't have to think about it in the future!
Huang Xiaoming sighed for a while and called Yan Chenchen.
The latter was stunned at first, because although they were classmates, they didn't have a very close relationship in college.
Yan Chenchen was so beautiful that she was overwhelmed with acting jobs in her sophomore year, while Huang Xiaoming was still worried about not having any roles to play.
Unexpectedly, a few years after graduation, Huang Xiaoming became a first-tier popular star, while Yan Chenchen could only play in bad movies and became a vase actor, and the kind of actor with little fame.
The difference in status is too big. Although they are classmates, they really don't have much contact.
"Hello, big star, why did you think of calling me?"
Huang Xiaoming said hurriedly: "Don't call me that, I'm not a big star!"
Yan Chen said: "You are too modest. You are the most popular among all the students in the class now!"
Huang Xiaoming smiled and accepted Yan Chen's compliment.
Immediately said: "In the past, it was true, but it won't be soon!"
"What do you mean?"
"Because you will be the most popular one soon!"
"Just kidding, I am an unknown TV actor, no matter how popular I am, I can't be more popular than you! Unless...!"
She wanted to say, unless Director Jiang supports me!
But thinking about Huang Xiaoming's sudden call and what she just said, her voice trembled involuntarily.
"What do you mean?"
"I have good news to inform you. Director Jiang invites you to audition tomorrow. I think it is very likely to succeed. Remember to treat me to dinner!"
