Although Xin Changkong said that he didn't need any conditions, just being a director would be enough.

He also does the work of a producer, but there are still no requirements.

Shen Huan didn't treat him badly either.

In the contract signed by Xin Changkong, the total remuneration for the director and producer is a 5% profit share.

Regarding this, Xin Changkong didn't say anything, nor did he say any words of gratitude.

Since Lu Xiaofeng and Teacher Chu Liuxiang think so highly of him, he should use his skills to do his best.

Thank you more than any other for making this TV series.

Funding problems are also easy to solve.

Shen Huan originally had more than 60 million in money, but in the past few days, he received more than 13 million from the overseas share settlement of "Love Letter", so he collected 80 million.

Shen Huan didn't know how much it cost to film "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" in her previous life.

But around 2000, with Aunt Qiongyao's character, it was definitely impossible for her to be willing to spend 80 million yuan to film a TV series.

The characters in the original version are not very famous, Xiao Yanzi is a pure newcomer, and the salary is not too high.

In addition, their costumes are very confusing and the scenes are actually very poor. If the Chinese people had not seen this type of TV series in those years, I am afraid the ratings would not have been so high.

Therefore, this 80 million is definitely more than enough to cover the initial expenses.

However, Shen Huan's hands were almost completely drained, with only about 2 million in cash.

This amount of money was a large amount for Shen Huan more than a year ago, but now, it seems a bit narrow.

After all, the negotiations at Yongxing Supermarket have entered the second stage. In the next month at most, the families of the school beauties will discuss how much capital to invest. Shen Huan's use of the 2 million would be purely embarrassing.

For this fund, Lai Haijin also helped set up a leather goods company called "Fengxiang Film and Television Company", and the legal representative is Shen Huan.

It's impossible to make a movie without a company to start with.

All accounts must come out of the company to appear formal. Otherwise, there will be a lot of trouble when taxes are investigated and the media investigates.

The money was placed in the company's account, and Lai Haijin also took on the responsibility of supervising the use of the money.

He knew that he had set a trap this time. Even if Buyiyi didn't say much, if there was no remedy, Buyiyi would have to fly solo in one or two years.

When he thought about his biggest brand and cash cow, leaving him like this, Lai Haijin was so heartbroken that he could not speak.

Therefore, even though Shen Huan was determined not to use any of his other actors this time, Lai Haijin was still busy running up and down.

Naturally, Shen Huan did the casting herself.

The character of Xiao Yanzi is Buyiyi, and nothing has changed about this.

The second heroine, Ziwei, has a gentle and virtuous personality, is very smart and knows how to tolerate, and she is exactly the template for the heroine in Aunt Qiongyao's other books.

Therefore, even if Shen Huan does not use actresses like Miss Lin, she still uses celebrities such as Miss Mei and Aunt Qingxia as templates.

Chen Qian is actually quite suitable for this role.

But Chen Qian is already a quasi-first-line female movie star in China, how could she possibly star in the second female lead in a TV series?

Isn't this the same as letting Buyiyi play the second female lead?

Of course, if Shen Huan told Chen Qian, Chen Qian would definitely come.

This woman can only be considered delicate in appearance, but she is absolutely beautiful in her conduct, and her acting skills are very good. If she comes, Ziwei will definitely make her role come alive.

But again, Shen Huan cannot ruin actors.

A young actress like Buyiyi who relies a bit on her looks is completely different from an obvious big girl like Chen Qian.

Besides, if Chen Qian comes to play Ziwei, I'm afraid Buyi Yi won't be able to hold her down, so the characteristics of Xiao Yanzi won't be able to be brought out.

After thinking about it, Shen Huan simply made a phone call and asked Zhu Mei to help out and let those actresses who fit the image submit their resumes to the mailbox of Fengxiang Film and Television.

It was easy to choose Jinsuo. Since Ziwei was going to audition, Jinsuo might as well join in.

As the Queen's actor, Shen Huan is more interested in the A-list female star Cao Nihui who last auditioned for "Love Letter", but she is a big name in the film industry, so she doesn't know if she is willing to play such a supporting role.

If she is not willing, Shen Huan feels that Zhou Lexiang, who is also auditioning for "Love Letter", will definitely be willing.

Although Zhou Lexiang is a little younger, she is only 23 years old this year, but with a little heavy makeup and some dressing up, the effect of a woman in her thirties is still good.

The most crucial supporting actress in the play is not Jinsuo, let alone the queen, but Nanny Rong.

The most hated and memorable evil old woman in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" is actually the ultimate big devil faced by a group of male and female protagonists in the first movie.

She was the one who did all the bad things. The queen just used her mouth and was hated by others, far less than Aunt Rong.

Shen Huan was also chosen as the candidate.

She is played by teacher Jia Lei, the mother of the male Fang Shu in "Love Letter".

The 52-year-old teacher Jia Lei graduated from Shanghai Opera. She was also the leading female lead when she was young. Now she is a famous Green Leaf actor. She will definitely be able to play this role well.

As for the male actors, the leading actor is not the fifth elder brother opposite Xiao Yanzi, but Erkang played by Mr. Zhou.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Aunt Qiongyao has very good ideas about this arrangement.

If the fifth elder brother is too strong, he will suppress Xiao Yanzi.

But it cannot be without an outstanding male protagonist.

So Ziwei, who has a gentle personality, is paired with Er Kang, who is bold and capable.

In this way, the two young couples were formed.

Therefore, the selection of Erkang is as important as Xiaoyanzi.

Ahem.

Not surprisingly, the first thing Shen Huan thought of was Guo Hang.

There is absolutely no doubt about Guo Hang's acting skills. He is not handsome in appearance, and he happens to be similar to Mr. Zhou, so he will not steal the limelight from the heroines.

But the same problem as Chen Qian, or even a further problem is that Guo Hang is now one of the top three movie kings!

Best Actor at Venice Film Festival, Best Actor at Busan Film Festival, Best Actor at Edo Film Festival.

Even if the reputation and prestige of the last two are not that great, do you think the combined power of the three movie stars is great?

Nowadays, "The Gift of Room 7" is in theaters. Not surprisingly, he has won at least two or three Best Actor and Best Actor awards at various awards ceremonies in China.

Winning the Super Best Actor Award, coupled with the extremely popular box office reputation of "Gift from Room No. 7", Guo Hang has firmly sat at the top of the A-list male actors.

It only takes a year or two to settle down and produce another outstanding film, then Guo Hang will definitely become China's seventh best actor.

For such a big shot, if you ask him to be the leading actor in a TV series, aren't you just ruining him?

Although Guo Hang, like Chen Qian, will definitely come, even if he doesn't pay for it, Shen Huan can't be so ignorant.

Only mutual respect and mutual appreciation can make a relationship last.

Apart from Guo Hang, who is the best candidate, Shen Huan is interested in Wen Qi, one of the rising stars of the film industry.

Wen Qi is the least handsome among all the young actors in movies and TV series.

He has sharp edges and corners, small eyes, and a somewhat big mouth.

It's entirely because he acted in a sitcom when he was a child, and then stepped onto the stage of movies and TV shows step by step.

Such a person, without any acting skills, will definitely fall into the shadows of everyone.

The fifth elder brother is handsome, but he is not the most outstanding among the male protagonists. Duan Yi, a young actor in the TV series, fits the image in Shen Huan's impression very well.

Ertai was basically a supporting character in the first film, and he was the only character in the trio of male protagonists, which was purely for fun.

Shen Huan is going to use this choice as a favor, and let Aunt Cui find one of the artists signed by Shanhai.com.

The last actor seems to be a supporting actor, but in fact, in Shen Huan's opinion, he is the only one who can keep pace with Er Kang - Huang Ama.

The original version of Huang Ama was really good.

So much so that he later became a professional emperor, and he also had a wonderful performance in "Iron Teeth, Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan", so he found the right path for his acting career.

Originally, Shen Huan had considered Mr. Li Zixu, the father of Fang Shu in "Love Letter", but his appearance was too simple and honest, and he didn't have Huang Ama's shrewd yet humorous look.

In fact, actor Sun Dal Ha is the most suitable.

Regardless of his image or acting skills, he is even more perfect than the original Huang Ama.

It's a pity that he is an actor and has been famous for a long time. How can he play a supporting role in one of your TV series?

Even Mr. Hao He couldn't do this.

Not to mention the TV series of Teacher Chu Liuxiang.

Maybe he can still consider Mr. Chu Liuxiang’s movie.

So the only option is to change to another person.

Shen Huan set her sights on Kong Xiangjun, one of the five superstar male stars in the TV drama field.

This gentleman is 44 years old this year, which is the age when men are at their most prosperous, and many of his roles are elegant and free-spirited, which is more in line with Huang Ama's momentum.

It's just that he rarely smiles on weekdays, and his smile is just a smile.

Huang Ama’s magical laughter is a very eye-catching signature of "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", and this is absolutely indispensable!

It just depends on whether he is willing to make some changes.

If Kong Xiangjun is willing, Shen Huan will invite him over even if it means a little more money.

Superstars in TV dramas are not as picky as movie stars. As long as the script is good and the money is large, they will generally not refuse.

Just like that, after a list was compiled piecemeal, Shen Huan found that there were so few roles that he could confirm now.

There are still many actors who are still unknown.

From now on, you have to take the time to choose.

Otherwise, I would only give Xin Changkong a week. After this week, the actors would not be able to get into position. Wouldn't that make him look a little incompetent?
