"The Banker has done quite well this time, and the penguin has already passed your project review."
On the eve of preparation, Li He specially chatted with Li Junsheng."
It's all thanks to you, and without your full support, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to succeed so easily."
Li Junsheng said gratefully.Li He waved his hand and said: "I am at most a recommendation, if you don't have the ability yourself, I won't be useful." ”"Anyway, thank you."
No matter what, Li Junsheng is still very grateful to Li He, without Li He, he is like him today."
Don't say kind words, what do you think about the project "Knives in the Snow"?"
Li He changed the subject.Li Junsheng thought for a while and said, "Actually, there is a person who is very suitable for the role of Xu Fengnian. ”"What are you talking about Chen Kun?""
That's right, it's ...... him" Li He shook his head and said: "It's old, if he is ten years younger, it can be." ”Ten years ago, it happened to be when Chen Kun played the role of Xichang Gongyu Huatian, and the image was very consistent."
It is precisely because of this consideration that I did not invite him, and Chen Kun's salary is too high."
Li Junsheng said.Li He very much recognizes that movie stars starring in TV series usually pay more than the asking price of movies.For example, Zhou Xun starred in the drama version of "Red Sorghum", claiming to have received a salary of 120 million, and only got a salary of 15 million for starring in "Gravity", but it is still a mere 15 million salary, so you can imagine the gap.International Zhang herself also starred in a TV series, but that drama is considered a drama of her own group, and it is understandable that the salary is not high."
Is there any suitable candidate?"
Li He asked."
If it really doesn't work, I have to use newcomers, the original book has a lot of fans, so don't worry about the ratings in the future."
Li Junsheng said."
Do you want to be on the air?""
That's right, the biggest market for TV dramas is still on the TV station's side, and there are more young people in terms of webcasting.""
Oh well!
Communicate with me at any time if there is any situation......" ended the conversation with Li Junsheng, and Li He rushed to the set of "Yunnan Worm Valley" non-stop.Since the popularity of ghost blowing lantern series such as "Exquisite Ancient City", "Nuqing Xiangxi", and "Longling Grotto", Chen Meizhou has become a hot first-line online drama director.After the foreshadowing of three web dramas, this web drama continues to be produced by the original team, starring Nan Pan, Zhang Yuqi, and Jiang Chao Iron Triangle, determined to bring a better visual experience and a more exciting and mysterious plot to the audience.The review scale of the big scissors in this world is very relaxed, Chen Meizhou is not afraid, the story of the original book is exciting enough, Chen Meizhou is thinking about how to restore the story and scene of the original work.In order to choose a suitable filming location, Chen Meizhou took the crew to the primeval forest in Yunnan, and the local government also cooperated with it to give policy convenience.On the other hand, the special effects scenes were handed over to the industrial light and magic production as early as possible, and in order to be more realistic, the crew built a large number of 1:1 model real scenes.This "Yunnan Worm Valley" is the most exciting and exciting in the entire series, and it is also the most difficult to shoot.Penguin Pictures has invested a lot of money in this, with a total investment scale of 220 million, you must know that this is 220 million for a group of actors and crews with a salary of less than 50 million, which means that there are more than 170 million funds to shoot for the crew, which is also the ceiling investment scale in the online drama.As the initiator and producer of this series, Li He has to check the general direction of the series and the quality of each work.Fortunately, Chen Meizhou's ability is also excellent, and she didn't worry about it much.But the next most important thing for Li He is "Inception".After a long preparation period, repeated meetings between China and North America to determine the actors, "Inception" also ushered in the final audition.The audition location is in Beijing, and many actors who are interested in this project are gathered in Beijing to start the final competition."
Come on, Emma, you can do it."
Since changing agents, Emma can also play several roles with shots and lines, but she attaches the most importance to this project directed by Lee He.Emma got a little inside information from Warner Pictures, and the role she was competing for was the second female lead, although she was the second female lead, but she had more scenes than the first female lead, and she was a college student in the Department of Architectural Design.In order to be more suitable for the role, Emma Jefferson deliberately used the relationship and went to the architecture and design department of Columbia University through the back door to study for a few months."
Emma Jefferson, it's your audition.""
Thanks, come ...... right away" Emma finally sorted out her image and didn't go to the audition hall.As soon as she entered, Emma saw Li He sitting in the middle, communicating with Charles Rowan, a veteran Hollywood producer next to her.Charles Rowan looked a little sleepy, I heard that he gave Li He a lot of faces, and it is estimated that Li He's revenge for audition so early today.These are all digressions, the most important thing today is my own audition, and all my efforts were in vain if I didn't succeed."
Hello Director, Producer, my name is Emma Jefferson, I graduated from New York University, I also studied at USC, and I have starred in ......films such as "Desert Island" and "Scream," Emma introduced herself.Li He frowned, they were all B-grade movies, and he hadn't even heard the name, he opened Emma's information, and when he saw the line of Columbia University, he asked, "You still studied in the Department of Architectural Design at Columbia University, right?"
”"Yes," replied Emma, "I used to be crazy about architecture, and if I hadn't been more into the profession of actor, I would have become a great architect." ”Li He rolled his eyes, this blonde girl doesn't blush when she lies, but this also proves that Emma's acting skills are still okay."
Then I would like you to draw a labyrinth, the kind that you can't get out of in a minute."
Li He said."
Okay, no problem......"
Emma took the pen and paper and designed.After a while, Emma gave the designed maze to Li He, and the audition team of six people played with it, and the fastest was Penguin Pictures producer Cheng Xiangping, which took one minute and thirty seconds."
Okay, that's great, assistant Zhu Xiuzhen gave the script to Emma, and Emma took it and read it carefully."
Charles, you'll play with her in a moment.""
OK, no problem......"
After fighting with Li He a few times, Li He still sat firmly in Diaoyutai, and Charles Rowan was also a lot more honest.This scene is not difficult to perform, mainly the scene where the dream builder Adrian discovers the secret of Cobb the Dream Thief, and Emma completes this scene well.Li He exchanged views with several producers and assistant directors, and agreed that Emma was not bad, but the audition could not be out on the same day, and it still needed to be discussed and decided.Charles Rowan said to Emma: "Okay, your performance is good, but we still need to discuss before we can make a decision, and we will inform you of the results of the audition in three days." ”Emma stood up and bowed deeply: "Thank you, thank you......"
Emma walked out the door, ignoring the threatening gaze of those auditioners, and walked out confidently.
