Chapter 82: The first hoe of empty text excavation
Now that the main characters are together, the remaining supporting characters will be easy to deal with.
For the role of grandma, Zuo Le found an acquaintance to play the role of the Valkyrie in Dagukou and Mr. Jin Wei, who plays the role of Mrs. Qi, the queen of empty ears.
During the filming of Traffic Station Duology, Zuo Le and the old lady got along well. Zuo Le made a phone call and the old lady agreed to participate in the film without saying a word. It was a great pleasure.
Grandpas Xia Xiang and Zuo Le were cast by veteran actor Wen Yu from Dongshan.
This old man is a national first-class actor and the former director of Dongshan Repertory Theater. He has a terrifying resume and is a well-deserved big shot in Dongshan's literary and artistic circles.
Of course, now that the old man is retired and enjoying his grandchildren at home, otherwise Zuo Le wouldn't be able to invite him.
In fact, at first, Zuo Le wanted his second uncle to play the role of grandfather, but after careful consideration he rejected it.
In the play, the grandfather is a retired physical education teacher. He is serious and tells the truth. The second uncle's acting skills are adequate, but his appearance is really tough enough to hold up the role.
Therefore, Zuo Le found Mr. Wen Yu, a man with a strong sense of leadership, and his second uncle was assigned the role of Mr. Wu, who learned English "haha" and liked to quarrel with his grandma.
It is worth mentioning here that a few days ago, the Shanhe Film Brokerage Department was officially established, with Cao Jie, a professional broker hired by Zuo Le with a lot of money, as the head of the department.
After the establishment of the agency, the first artist to sign a contract was Erjiu.
Because he didn’t trust outside entertainment companies, his second uncle had been working alone since he entered the industry and had not signed a contract with any agency. Until Zuo Le established the agency department of Shanhe Pictures, his second uncle didn’t trust others and didn’t believe his own nephew, so he immediately chose to join Sunward Pictures.
.
The second artist in the management department of Shanhe Pictures is Gao Xinjian. However, since he has not yet been discharged from the army, the contract has only been drafted and the official signing will not be until September.
As of now, Shanhe Pictures only has these two signed artists. If Zuo Le and Ming Yan are also included, there are four.
It can be said that there are few soldiers and few generals.
But Zuo Le didn't panic at all, Kong Wen still had a bunch of treasures.
……………
In mid-June 2017, on a dark and stormy night, Zuo Le initially formulated a "hollow-out plan", codenamed "Hoe". He appointed himself as the leader of the "Hoe" plan implementation team. Gao Xinjian, who had just "surrendered"
Appoint team member.
The first target of the [Hoe] plan is Secretary General Lin Yongjian.
It's not that Zuo Le didn't want to dig Hong Tao first, Zhou Binbin and the others really didn't have the conditions to do so.
After "Story of the Cooking Class" became a hit, the fame of actors such as Kong Wen has soared, especially Sha Yi and Mao Xiao. Because of their handsome appearance, their popularity is almost as high as those of popular young actors.
In recent times, I don’t know how many entertainment companies have secretly contacted these actors and wanted to sign contracts with them, which has almost annoyed Guo Xin, the leader of Kongwen Group, to death.
In the end, Captain Guo, who was anxious, went to the superiors to come forward and suppress the limelight.
At this time, Zuo Le was afraid that Guo Xin would contact bombers to blow up Shanhe Pictures when they went to poach Hong Tao and the others...
Therefore, Zuo Le planned to take things step by step, first recruiting a few less eye-catching supporting characters, and slowly growing his "group of relatives and friends".
When the storm has passed and Guo Xin's vigilance is lowered, Zuo Le will let these "groups of relatives and friends" go to instigate rebellion. Even if they can't catch them all, they can still get a few big fish.
Another point is that you need to have chips to poach people. Zuo Le doesn't have so many suitable roles at the moment, so he can only try to find the masters who can attract them with the existing chips.
The bargaining chip Zuo Le offered to Lin Yongjian was the role of Hu Yitong in "Family with Children".
This ex-husband had a lot of scenes in "With Children". Excluding the five members of the Xia family and his grandparents, Liu Xing's biological father had the most appearances, and could even be counted among the starring roles.
This role is very tempting to Lin Yongjian.
Lin Yongjian is not like Hong Tao and others. He became famous through the drama "The Story of the Cooking Class" and is now considered a smart guy.
Because the director's role was too few, and there were not many areas where the character stood out, "Story of the Cooking Class" had limited Lin Yongjian's reputation, which made Lin Yongjian a little anxious after witnessing the popularity of Hong Tao and others.
Comparing one another with one another, they are both old buddies who have been together for many years. Hong Tao and Zhou Binbin are very popular, and Hu Jie's career is also developing smoothly.
Gao Xinjian is not well-known yet, but he has already won the male lead of "With Children". In the future, "With Children" will be broadcast, and as long as the performance is acceptable, Gao Xinjian will be considered a success.
Several of his buddies are in a period of rapid career growth, and he is the only one who is standing still. Lin Yongjian is almost going crazy thinking about becoming famous.
At this time, Zuo Le suddenly offered him an olive branch, promising to play an important role in the new drama "Family with Children". The result is self-evident...
…………
Quancheng High-speed Railway Station
Lin Yongjian carried his suitcase and walked out of the station, answered a phone call, looked around, and walked towards a flower bed next to the exit. Gao Xinjian came up to him with a smile and wearing sunglasses.
"Old Lin, Guo Tuan really let you out."
Lin Yongjian narrowed his little eyes and said with a smile: "Hong Tao and Bin Bin are so popular now, and the whole group's attention is focused on them. Although I, the Secretary General, have a bit of a nickname, I am still a supporting role.
I insist on reporting that I am discharged from the army and want to go out to develop my career, and the regiment leader cannot hinder my future."
"Hahaha, you kid."
Gao Xinjian was very happy to see the good friends reunited. He put his arm around Lin Yongjian's shoulders and said, "Let's go, I'll take over for you."
"Don't rush to catch the wind."
Lin Yongjian looked at Gao Xinjian: "I was entrusted by someone to go to Director Zuo if I have something to do."
"who?"
"Yan Ni!"
Shanhe Pictures, General Manager’s Office
Zuo Le looked at Lin Yongjian in surprise: "Yan Ni wants to come over? Then why didn't she just call me and tell me, and asked you to take the message."
"She might be too embarrassed to tell you directly."
Lin Yongjian smiled and explained: "She wanted to play a role in "Family with Children", but she was afraid that you would refuse her and she would be embarrassed and would not come again.
Therefore, I am asked to spread the word in the middle. Whether it succeeds or fails, there is room for relaxation."
"I see."
Zuo Le nodded and pondered for a moment: "I know Yan Ni's acting skills, and there is absolutely no need to say anything about it. If she wants to come to Shanhe, I support her with both hands.
In this way, there is still a role for Xia Donghai's ex-wife Mary in the drama "Family with Children", which can be given to her.
In addition, the company has a big production at the end of the year, and there is a role that suits her very well. She can be regarded as the second female lead. If she is interested, she can talk to me."
"Okay, I'll reply to her right away." Lin Yongjian responded.
The three chatted for a while, Zuo Le welcomed Lin Yongjian's arrival, and then Gao and Lin left.
Zuo Le sat alone in the office, turned on the computer, and looked at the cast list of "Family with Children".
Hu Yitong and Lin Yongjian.
Mary Yanni.
Fat Aunt was played by Zhang Yan, a host from Dongshan TV.
Shang Xishan Zuo Le went up by himself.
Well, basically all the main actors are in place, and "Family with Children" is almost ready to start...
