Although Xin Aiguo did not participate in the high-level meeting about the protagonist of the film, he was sitting in the office and racking his brains thinking about this issue. His purpose was not to get the humble Audi Q7, but to think about it.
, is it possible for Zhang Youbin to join in the filming of this scene?
Regarding Zhang Youbin, Xin Aiguo has always held an attitude, that is, try not to provoke him and try not to let him idle, because in their eyes, Zhang Youbin is only a potential threat. They do not think that Zhang Youbin knows their identity.
I am worried that Zhang Youbin will find out something from the company.
That's why Xin Aiguo has been trying to increase Zhang Youbin's exposure. This is not only to enhance his own reputation and that of Datang, but most importantly, to make Zhang Youbin the focus of attention, so that he can save the country through curves.
Xin Aiguo was not sure whether Zhang Youbin would be able to make a movie, but in his opinion, Zhang Youbin's appearance was definitely qualified. He was handsome and full of masculinity. As long as his acting skills were good, I believe Director Zhang would not object.
Thinking of this, Xin Aiguo immediately called the board of directors and expressed his thoughts. It didn't matter. The company's senior management was a little excited. Yes, letting Zhang Youbin participate in the performance would not only save a lot of money, but more importantly
It played an unparalleled propaganda role for Datang.
However, some people hold objections. Stars like Han Zhiyu who are accustomed to standing in front of the camera do not meet Director Zhang's requirements, let alone an amateur with Zhang Youbin's standards?
The supporters didn't take this issue seriously. Anyway, the male lead hadn't been decided yet. There was nothing to lose by letting Zhang Youbin audition once. He happened to be on the set. If Director Zhang didn't agree after the audition, forget it. He agreed.
Isn’t that just a profit?
As soon as this idea was expressed, the opposition also felt that it made sense. The audition did not cost any money and did not waste any time. Let's just let Zhang Youbin try it. Maybe he can actually succeed.
In this way, this idea has been reported to Tang Ze. As soon as Tang Ze heard this suggestion, he immediately smiled. Zhang Youbin is his grandson and someone he values very much. If there is such an opportunity, why not let Zhang Youbin give it a try?
Woolen cloth?
So Tang Ze immediately gave instructions: Immediately arrange an audition for Zhang Youbin.
If not, we should try our best to train Zhang Youbin to meet Director Zhang's minimum requirements. The overall progress can be postponed for a period of time. As long as there are no problems with Zhang Youbin, the overall plan can be suspended for him alone.
Then the instructions began to be issued layer by layer, until the person in charge of the project called Director Zhang's mobile phone.
When Director Zhang heard the idea of the person in charge of Datang, he almost lost his temper and went crazy. "My dear, I dislike Han Zhiyu's poor acting skills and asked you to choose a capable actor again. It would be better for you to just choose a standard amateur audience."
Maybe they can't even compare to the extras. Isn't this just adding insult to injury? If I had made such a movie, what the hell would it be?
"No, no, no." Director Zhang hurriedly ran far away and then said to the phone: "Your idea is too ridiculous. How can you let a person who has never been in this industry be the leading actor? Isn't this child's play?"
The other end of the phone comforted: "It's okay, Director Zhang, don't worry. We didn't say that Zhang Youbin must play this role. You can let him try out. If he agrees to the request, then everyone will be happy. If he
It’s not much different. We at Datang can also wait for him to catch up. If it doesn’t work, we won’t force it. Anyway, we haven’t decided on the leading actor yet, so you might as well let him give it a try!”
"Hmm..." Director Zhang thought for a moment and thought that what the people from Tang Dynasty said was reasonable, so he nodded and agreed, saying: "It's okay to let him audition, but let's make an agreement first, and I'll say it first."
, if he really does not have that quality, I will never let him play the leading role in this movie, unless you replace me!"
"No problem!" The person in charge of Datang hurriedly agreed and said: "Whether Zhang Youbin is good or not is entirely up to you. As long as you say after the audition that he does not have this qualification, then it will be treated as if I did not say anything.
Let’s go on to choose other actors.”
The good attitude from Datang made Director Zhang feel much relieved. He himself had a very good impression of Zhang Youbin. Not only that, the handsome young man also had power and background that others could hardly imagine.
It's rare that he doesn't have any airs, which makes Director Zhang like it very much. In the face of the ignorant Song Xiaohe's merciless ridicule and sarcasm in front of everyone in the morning, a person of Zhang Youbin's status can actually endure such a big heart.
Director Zhang even secretly admired him.
It’s just that work is work and must be separated from personal feelings. If Zhang Youbin didn’t have this quality, even if he killed Director Zhang, he wouldn’t let Zhang Youbin play the leading role in this drama under his directorship.
"Okay, I will arrange for him to audition now, and I will tell you as soon as I make the decision."
Zhang Youbin was sitting in a chair bored, but he did not expect that he had been betrayed by people including Datang Group and his grandfather.
"Youbin." Director Zhang and the assistant director secretly discussed for a while, then walked up to Zhang Youbin and said to him: "Go to the dressing room now and let them put your makeup on. The assistant director will take advantage of your makeup later.
I'll tell you about the scene. It just so happens that I have to shoot the last set of scenes for An Ning. After her scenes are over, you can come over and audition."
"What?!" Zhang Youbin almost fell off the chair. He looked at Director Zhang in surprise for a long time before asking: "Director Zhang, aren't you crazy about not being able to find actors? Are you going to let me audition?"
"This is not my intention." Director Zhang patiently explained: "This is the intention of the person in charge of your Datang Group, and he also said that your grandfather personally approved it."
"Really?" Zhang Youbin was very surprised. He said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Then tell them I won't try. I have no interest in this at all..."
An Ning from the side heard the conversation and came over curiously. She was so happy that she asked Zhang Youbin to audition? Play opposite herself? I smiled proudly... I smiled proudly...
"This..." Director Zhang said in embarrassment: "You should tell them. You can talk to me after you have discussed it. Don't put me in the middle. It will be difficult to handle."
Zhang Youbin nodded helplessly, took out his mobile phone and said, "Okay, I'll make a call and ask."
When An Ning heard Zhang Youbin said he was unwilling, she immediately became anxious. She grabbed Zhang Youbin's hand holding the phone and asked anxiously: "Zhang Youbin, why don't you give it a try?"
"What are you trying!" Zhang Youbin looked depressed: "Look at me. Is this the material?" As he was talking, the phone in his hand suddenly rang, and it turned out to be a call from his grandfather.
"Hello, grandpa." Zhang Youbin hurriedly answered the phone.
"Quiet." Tang Ze chuckled on the phone: "How's it going? Director Zhang arranged for you to audition?"
"I was just about to tell you this." Zhang Youbin complained: "Grandpa, why do you want me to audition? You don't really think I can act in a movie, do you?"
Tang Ze said with a smile: "You have to try everything. How can you know if you can do it if you don't try? Besides, I have never found acting to be difficult. It just requires a strong psychological quality. Your psychological quality, grandpa can
I have never doubted it. Besides, based on your previous "career", I think you are the perfect person to play this role."
"Grandpa, I really can't do it!" Zhang Youbin said helplessly: "I don't understand this at all..."
Tang Ze said seriously: "I know you don't understand.
But Director Zhang and the others are here. As long as you have this ability, they will teach you. I just want to know whether my grandson, Tang Ze, can do it, not whether he understands it!"
"No..." Zhang Youbin was extremely depressed and asked in a pleading tone: "Grandpa, can you not let me do this? Wouldn't it be better to change it to someone else?"
"No." Tang Ze flatly refused: "You try with your heart. If you really don't have that ability, grandpa will naturally not let you embarrass yourself, but you kid, please don't pretend to be a coward! If I knew where you were auditioning,
If you deliberately cause trouble, you can take care of it yourself!"
"But I don't want to act!" Zhang Youbin said eagerly: "I beg you, okay?"
"No!" Tang Ze said: "You have to know that this is also a big opportunity for you, and it is also a publicity opportunity for our group. If you were to play the leading role in this drama, what a big deal it would be.
Strong publicity effect? Money can’t buy it! And it will be beneficial to your future without any harm! You kid must know how to seize the opportunity! Don’t let others underestimate you!”
"Uh..." Zhang Youbin was so sweaty that he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Keep in mind, kid, if you deliberately cause trouble during the audition, I will leave for Hangzhou immediately and personally supervise your audition on the set!" Tang Ze finally threatened.
"Oh my god..." Zhang Youbin almost had the idea of dying, so he nodded helplessly and said, "Well, let's give it a try..."
Zhang Youbin held the phone with a frustrated look on his face and walked over from a distance in despair. An Ning knew at a glance that Zhang Youbin's purpose of refusing was unsuccessful. She was so excited that she couldn't help but clenched her fists and cheered softly.
"Okay, Director Zhang, tell me what to do. I will definitely obey the arrangements..." Zhang Youbin has decided to give it a try. He doesn't want to see how embarrassing it would be if his grandfather actually comes over to personally supervise his audition.
"Yes." Director Zhang nodded and said to the assistant director: "Take him to the dressing room immediately, bring him to the audition with full makeup, including costumes, and explain to him the scene of the first set of shots. Keep it simple.
Try to use as few technical terms as possible, got it?"
"I understand Director Zhang." After the assistant director finished speaking, he walked up to Zhang Youbin and said, "Mr. Zhang, come with me."
Zhang Youbin nodded helplessly, sighed and said, "Okay."
