Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 199 Candidates

Although it was the first time they met Su Yan, all of these people looked extremely nervous.

In the Xia country's TV drama circle, Su Yan is not the number one in history, but at least he is the number one at the moment.

Maybe Su Yan himself didn't feel anything.

But after working with Su Yan, Shen Liqian went from being an out-of-date star to the most popular female star in Xiaguo's TV drama circle with the role of Akaname Rika. In the industry, this has become a must-talk story for major entertainment companies to their artists.

Not to mention, there is the example of Gu Qingyuan.

So even though today, there are hundreds of people competing for a role, and all of them flew to Tokyo at their own expense, no one backed down.

After all, being the heroine of Su Yan's drama means soaring to fame in Xiaguo's TV drama industry.

With a 1% chance of becoming famous, who would back down?
This is much better than Xiaguo’s fraudulent welfare lottery.

Come to the audition room.

Ikumi Shinozaki sat down next to the main seat early and started organizing documents.

"Good morning." Su Yan greeted.

"Hurry up and eat the breakfast I brought you. If you're quick, I hope we can finish all the auditions before 10 o'clock tonight." Shinozaki Yumi handed Su Yan a bag of buns and soy milk.

"Thank you." Su Yan said with a smile.

Then he took the document from her and started flipping through it casually.

"Among these people, I have already highlighted those with potential."

"First of all, these nine people have the best looks. If we only talk about looks, they are very eye-catching even among celebrities. Then in terms of acting skills, these people have participated in many dramas before. I have seen their previous performance clips, which are very good. And these people, I find it difficult to understand the awe-inspiring temperament you mentioned, but at first glance, these people have the image of beautiful girls with righteousness."

Shinozaki Ikumi was not polite at all. As soon as Su Yan sat down, she started to pour a lot of information into Su Yan.

After listening for a long time, Su Yan just sighed softly and felt a little embarrassed.

The producer, Ikumi Shinozaki, is much more responsible and dedicated than him, the screenwriter.

Su Yan flipped through the documents in his hand.

However, he didn't think there was anything special about the actor information compiled by Ikumi Shinozaki.

The beauty of the character Saber is secondary, the most important thing is her temperament.

In fact, many details cannot be fully presented only through photos because of different cameras and lens materials.

Some people are very beautiful in real life, but look fat and ugly in professional cameras, while some people are just the opposite, they are 80% beautiful in real life, but look 90% goddesses on camera.

So Su Yan's audition today will not only be watched live, but there will also be a professional camera angle that will shoot and cut to the laptop in front of him to watch the effect on camera.

"Okay, let's start!" Su Yan looked at the time and said directly.

Soon, the auditioners outside the venue received notification.

【Lance Lot.

【I, it’s all because of me】

[One day, I will obtain the Holy Grail.]

Regarding Saber's audition clip, Su Yan selected two shots.

The first is the scene when Saber appears.

The question [Are you my Master?] is definitely a must-answer question.

Also, in the FZ plot, after Saber's battle with Lancelot, she returns to her own era and finally cries out of regret.

These are the two shots in fz that impressed Su Yan the most.

There are not many lines, only a dozen or so in total, but the performance requirements are extremely high.

The audition script explains Saber's general psychology during the two shots.

The auditions ended one by one, and Su Yan felt that most of them were unnatural.

These people are all very pretty, but being pretty alone is clearly not enough to play Saber well.

Although there were one or two people who made Su Yan's eyes light up, there was still a gap between them and the Saber he had imagined.

However, this kind of thing was within Su Yan's expectations.

Anime works are extremely fantasy-themed.

In fact, every ACG person will reprocess the anime characters in their mind. To put it bluntly, there will be a character filter. For real actors, even if they can perform 100% or %, it is considered good. It is impossible to pursue % restoration.

Not to mention in Xia Country, even in Su Yan’s previous life, Altria was just a virtual character.

The real knight king in history is the legend, the overly mythical Arthur, about whom records are ominous.

Where can I find actors who are 100% compatible?

Su Yan was very clear about this.
However, when the audition really comes, there are still a lot of expectations.

In the evening, the audition session will be over.

Su Yan and Shinozaki Ikumi were sorting out the relevant information.

"How is it? How many actors do you like in today's audition?" asked Ikumi Shinozaki.

"Just these three: Natasha Benson, Unil Smith, and Bettina Payton. Well, if the full score is 10, the feeling they gave me in these two clips would be about 6 or 7 points." Su Yan said.

"Six or seven points, so low?" Shinozaki Ikumi said in surprise.

"Although it can't be called high, it's not low either. With six or seven points, it's at least passing." Su Yan said after a pause.

"This is the heroine of a TV series with an estimated investment of over 100 million yuan, and even you, the screenwriter, think that this is the only rating she gets," said Shinozaki Ikumi, frowning.

"At least we have to find an actor who's an 80% actor, right?"

"How about this. We'll keep these three as a backup list. We'll distribute the audition script of Fate Zero to instructors and students at major film and television academies. If there's anyone interested in this role, they can submit their audition video online," Su Yan said after a pause.

"After all, it's just an audition with a slim chance of success. Maybe there are better student actors who can't fly in for an on-site audition due to financial or lack of self-confidence reasons. If there are more suitable candidates in the online submission video, how about we reimburse their travel expenses to come to the on-site audition?"

"If you think it's necessary to make such a big fuss about this character, then there's no problem." Shinozaki Ikumi thought for a moment and said directly.

"If we do this, the filming progress of FZ will be delayed again. Now the FZ crew has already started filming, and some supporting roles are being filmed, but the heroine Saber can't be absent from filming for a long time."

"The time is set for this week. Before next Monday, no matter what the result, a suitable Saber role will be selected, otherwise..." Su Yan picked up the information of the three actors selected before.

"Just pick one from among them."

And the facts have proved that Su Yan’s proposal is really effective.

In the next few days, a large number of short videos were sent to Ikumi Shinozaki's mailbox every day.

Su Yan and she would get together to study these things after get off work every day.

The actor that Su Yan imagined deserved a "10" rating did not appear as he had imagined.

But after expanding the scope, he found four more auditioners who impressed him more than the three actors promoted at the previous audition.

Although Su Yan felt that if he continued to expand the scope and expand the target from within Xia Country to abroad, there might be better candidates.

But the time cost is too high.

In Su Yan’s previous life, there was an article called “The Biggest Ear of Wheat!”

A group of people were looking for the largest ear of wheat in a wheat forest, but each person could only pull out one. Many people always found a relatively large ear of wheat, but gave up on it because they thought they could find a bigger one. However, this was a trap. After a certain moment, no matter how they compared, the ears of wheat they encountered again in the wheat forest were not as good as the previous ones.

When the time is up, many people end up finding nothing!
There are billions of people in this world, and it is impossible for Su Yan to observe each and every one of them and pick out the best ones.

Su Yan would not make such a mistake.

Su Yan quickly made a decision in his mind and invited these four people to audition, but two of them were rejected because their performance on screen was too poor.

For the other two, after putting on Saber's knight armor costumes,
Only at this point did Su Yan decide on the candidate.

On Saturday morning, Su Yan no longer worried about it.

Zhuang Yuxin.

A student at the Imperial Capital Film and Television Academy.

His father is from Xia country and his mother is of mixed descent with Westerners.

After she agreed to sign the contract and become an artist under Dimension Film and Television Company.

On the official website of Dimension Film and Television Company and the homepage of fz, the personal information about the heroine Altria was also updated on Saturday.

On that day, the information that Zhuang Yuxin, a sophomore girl from the Capital Film and Television Academy, had become the female lead of fz directly topped the hot searches on major video websites in Xia Country.

Especially after learning that it took less than five days from the time she sent the audition video to Dimension Film and Television, to the time Dimension Film and Television reimbursed her expenses for an on-site interview in Tokyo, to the final signing of the contract, the Xia country's film and television industry was even more excited.

What kind of natural koi is this?
So many first-line actresses have to work very hard to get the second female role in Su Yan's drama.

fz The heroine of this drama with an investment of hundreds of millions was chosen by a student like her who has no acting experience?
Su Yan, are you really so arbitrary in choosing actors for your works?
A pure amateur plays the leading role in an S-level drama, a first in Xiaguo’s TV drama industry!
