Chengtian Entertainment Group, in a training room.
As an artist promoted by Chengtian Entertainment today, the "Seven Princesses" basically train together except for some members who need to take classes.
Wu Bo came up with this "Seven Princesses" combination to imitate Shaw Brothers' "Seven Princesses" that were in full swing at that time.
At that time, seven Hong Kong actresses, represented by Xiao Fangfang and Sit Ka Yan, created the golden years of Cantonese films in Hong Kong.
Moreover, Chengtian is still planning to officially register a trademark for this performing arts team format, and then launch a batch of new princesses every few years.
The atmosphere in the practice room was a bit tense today, unlike in the past when there was no shortage of laughter despite the hard work.
Originally, their agent had told them today that Tang An would come to the company and would probably choose two actors along the way.
However, there was no expectation at all in their eyes, but deep resentment.
Like resentful women, the six people were all staring at the same person intentionally or unintentionally.
Tang Yan, who stood aside and felt the resentful looks of others, felt on pins and needles and his scalp was numb.
After attending Tang An's celebration banquet that day, whenever I was happy, I told these good sisters directly.
As a result, from that day on, Tang Yan felt as if he was about to leave the "Seven Princesses" team.
I don't call her when there are any activities, unless it's necessary, and I can't even speak to her more than a few words a day.
This made Tang Yan even more uncomfortable than sarcasm in person.
Tang Yan, who has not officially entered society yet, doesn't understand. It's just a small role and the filming can be completed in one week.
Not long after, the door to the practice room opened from the outside, and their common manager Qi Ru pushed the door open and waved to Tang Yan at the door.
"Tang Yan, hurry up, Director Tang is already here!"
"Okay Sister Qi!"
Tang Yan was restless even while staying inside, so he quickly got up and walked towards the door.
"Why don't you put on makeup? Didn't I ask you to prepare it before?" Qi Ru frowned when she saw that he was still bare-faced and his hair was simply tied into a ponytail.
"Oh, forget it, Director Tang is already here, let's go quickly!"
After that, he took Tang Yan and left in a hurry. Before leaving, he told the other six people, "You should also prepare!"
The door slammed shut, followed by the indignant voices of several girls.
"What are you pretending to be? You didn't get the role only after sleeping with Director Tang!"
"I just know how to act innocent all day long, dress up like a student, and just know how to seduce men!"
"If I had known that I would have asked Director Wu to take me to the celebration banquet that day!"
"I didn't expect that she, who usually keeps silent, would be taken advantage of by her at the critical moment!"
Except for Tang Yan, most of the seven princesses have graduated from college and officially debuted. Yang Tingting, the oldest, has been debuting for three years and has filmed 5 TV series. Of course, she is not that simple.
They all ignored that Tang Yan was the one they discussed together. Compared with verbal abuse in person, this kind of silent rejection is more likely to break the heart of a girl who is not familiar with the world.
...
Tang Yan, who was following Qi Ru, was very worried. Why didn't she know what other people were thinking?
Could it be that Director Tang really likes me and wants to have sex?
Tang Yan's face turned red as he thought about it, and he almost bumped into Qi Ru in front of him.
"What are you thinking about?"
Qi Ru frowned, then knocked on the door and went in.
"Director Wu, Director Tang!" After saying that, he stood aside and motioned for Tang Yan to come quickly.
"Hello, Director Wu, hello Director Tang!" Tang Yan said hello to Wu Bo and Tang An in a low voice.
"Director Tang is here. Do you want some private guidance? I'll see if Lao Chen is here." Wu Bo said with a smile.
Tang An waved his hand, "It's just the roles in a few scenes, I'll just give you a few sentences!"
After that, he looked at Tang Yan and handed over a piece of A4 paper, "The role you play is the heroine's roommate and best friend. It's not too difficult. This is your script. Take it and read it carefully. In addition, dress a little more maturely.
Don’t act like a high school student, and don’t deviate from the scope of a college student!”
After Tang An finished speaking, he motioned for her to go out, then turned around and started chatting with Wu Bo again.
Tang Yan took the script dumbly and stood there blankly, not knowing what to say.
Is that the end?
Just like at the last celebration, Tang An still made her confused.
However, Qi Ru's eyes were astonishing. The moment Tang An looked at Tang Yan, the flash of surprise in her eyes did not escape her eyes.
Qiru debuted as a singer eleven years ago and became the first mainland singer signed by Warner Records, five years earlier than Naying.
In my career as a singer for nearly ten years, and as a manager for two more years, I have met so many different kinds of people.
Some people are so lustful that they look like I want to eat you, and some people are deep and cover it up well, and when the time comes, they will eat you alive.
Tang An was automatically classified into the latter category by him.
Qi Ru pulled Tang Yan away and kept hinting to her along the way how talented Tang An was, young and wealthy, and handsome...
...
"Does Director Tang need any other actors? I dare not say anything else. In terms of artists alone, no company in China can compare with our Chengtian!" Wu Bo said quite proudly.
"Thank you very much, Director Wu, for your kindness, but there is an investment from Huayi. Director Wang has inserted a few actors into it, and the rest are just some small roles with only a few lines!" Tang An waved his hand.
"Haha, in Director Tang's film, no matter how small the role, you still have to fight for the top spot!" Wu Bo complimented.
Tang An thought for a while and gave her the remaining two supporting actresses who only had one or two scenes, namely a nurse and a stewardess.
"Just these two, the taller one will play the stewardess!" Tang An randomly selected two of the remaining six princesses.
Then Tang An went to meet Chen Daoming in person. This could be regarded as one of the most famous actors in mainland China, and he had to give him enough face.
This was Tang An's first encounter with a top domestic actor, and it was Chen Daoming who was full of aura.
He secretly took a breath and said, "Hello, Uncle Ming!"
Chen Daoming sat back in his chair and nodded, "Hello, Director Tang, please show me the script!"
Being so direct suited Tang An's taste, so he took out the script and handed it over.
While Chen Daoming was reading the script, Tang An was also secretly sizing up this big shot.
Focus!
Tang An could only find this one word, as if he thought he didn't exist.
There was only the sound of flipping papers in the room. After a long time, Chen Daoming put down the script.
He crossed his legs and crossed his fingers on his thighs, "Director Tang, have your guesses about the degree of brain capacity development written in this script been confirmed?"
"No, it can even be said that this is completely unbelievable!" Tang An did not hide it and said with a smile.
"Uncle Ming, I have seen many of your works, among which "My 1919" I have seen 6 times. Your literary popularity is unique among domestic actors..."
Temperament is sometimes more important than acting skills!
In terms of acting skills, Chen Daoming is not necessarily any better than the other three Li and Chen.
Ge You, Chen Baoguo, Gong Li, Li Xuejian, Tang Guolu...
None of the actors who have collaborated with him can overshadow his charisma in the film.
Chen Daoming picked up the script again, read it roughly, nodded and said with a smile, "Then I will accept this film. You can talk to your agent about the contract!"
The script is good, the director is good, the characters are good, and Wu Bo personally proposed the project, so he has no reason not to take it!
