Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 285 Audition for "Princess Pearl": A Sea of ​​Beauties
The popularity of the TV series "My Fair Princess" exploded because of Cao Jian's collaboration with the World Cup. Under such circumstances, countless actors wanted to join the cast.

After the auditions began, Cao Jian planned to finalize the male actor first.

The actresses to be cast are Jin Suo, Liu Hong, and other supporting roles. Of course, if a suitable Xiao Yanzi is found, that can also be considered.

"Hello, Teacher Cao. My name is Li Yapeng. I graduated from the Central Academy of Drama."

When the auditions began, Cao Jian was surprised to find that the first male actor to arrive was this person.

Although the other person didn't say who he wanted to play, Cao Jian still eliminated him.

Your most classic role is Linghu Chong, but you ruined Guo Jing, so I can only apologize.

Furthermore, there's another reason why Cao Jian dislikes this person: it's because of Wang Fei.

"Hello Director Cao, my name is Su Youpeng, and I'm from Taiwan."

Although Cao Jian plagiarized the song "Love", the Little Tigers still quickly became popular in mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong in the past two years with other songs.

However, the group has now disbanded, and after completing their military service, the members began to pursue careers in the entertainment industry.

Would you mind playing the third male lead?

"do not mind."

"Okay, go back and wait for the interview notification."

Although Cao Jian intends to give the role of the Fifth Prince Yongqi to Ren Quan, it is still acceptable for Su Youpeng to play the third male lead, Fu Ertai.

"Hello teachers, hello Director Cao, my name is Zhou Jie, I am from Chang'an, and I graduated from the Shanghai Theatre Academy."

The man with the big nostrils in front of me is the actor who plays Er Kang.

The main reason is that this person speaks clearly and has excellent delivery of lines, so Cao Jian has no reason to eliminate him.

Qiongyao was also very satisfied with Zhou Jie.

After seven days of auditions, the main male actors were basically cast, and the auditions for the female actors that Mr. Cao was most looking forward to began.

At this time, the number of actresses who signed up was as high as 1,100.

"You shall conduct your first preliminary selection."

Looking at the stack of charts thicker than high school students' study materials, Cao Jian directly handed the task over to his subordinates.

"Godfather, I'm so worried."

Back in the room, Zhang Baizhi clung to him.

"worry about what?"

"There are so many beautiful girls at this audition. What if you find someone new and don't like them anymore?"

"impossible."

Cao Jian and Zhang Baizhi lay together, and Cao Jian laughed, "I like the new but don't dislike the old."

"As expected, you like new things."

Zhang Baizhi said coquettishly, "Please take me with you to the second round of auditions. I've been eating and sleeping at the hotel these past two days, and I'm so bored."

"The audition was for male actors a couple of days ago. There were a lot of handsome guys there, and I was worried you might run into someone you like."

"They just like you; you're the most handsome."

Zhang Baizhi laughed and said, "I didn't even consider Xie Tingfeng a threat last time."

Cao Jian seized on the loophole in Zhang Baizhi's words and laughed, "I didn't see it, but I remembered it. Otherwise, I would often think about it."

"No, there isn't."

"No, you're the only one in my heart. If you don't believe me, touch me."

"Then I'll have to give it a good feel."

The first round of auditions for the actresses took a full three days to complete.

"Is there an actress named Fan Bingbing who has auditioned?"

Cao Jian looked through the list of those who passed the first round of auditions, but couldn't find the person he was looking for.

"No."

The assistant racked his brains and even checked the files, but there was no such person as the boss mentioned.

"Could it be that he didn't come? That shouldn't be the case."

Cao Jian found it a bit strange. Logically speaking, the casting for "Princess Pearl" had caused such a big stir that it even made it into the newspapers.

Judging from her age, Fan Bingbing should be about ready to debut, so why doesn't she give it a try?
Is it possible that I'm not meant to be with this person?
But China is so big, it's very difficult to find someone, and I don't even know where Fan Bingbing is from, so there's no way to find her.

Now we can only hope that she can seize this opportunity; it doesn't matter if she arrives late.

After the first round of preliminary selection, only one hundred people remained out of more than a thousand, so the workload of auditions was naturally reduced considerably.

However, those who made it to the second round were all exceptionally beautiful.

"Hello Director Cao, hello teachers, my name is Chen Hao."

The first girl to come in for an audition immediately caught Cao Jian's eye.

Chen Hao, a heartthrob, is eighteen years old and not only skilled in calligraphy and dance, but also radiant wherever he stands.

Especially those big eyes, they seemed to speak volumes.

"What a beautiful girl."

Although Zhang Baizhi had seen many beautiful women in the past few days, he still felt a little insecure when he saw Chen Hao under the lights.

"I'm starting to have second thoughts."

Cao Jian hadn't expected Chen Hao to audition. This girl was certainly qualified to play Xiao Yanzi, but he had already promised Jia Jingwen.

However, this girl can be signed and trained in the future.

"Chen Hao, I'll keep your information. I'll talk to you later."

Cao Jian set the girl's information aside, intending to groom her as a future actress for his mainland company.

"Thank you, Director Cao."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hao thought he had a chance and quickly bowed.

"Hello Director Cao, my name is Dong Xuan."

"Hello Director Cao, my name is Yang Ruoxi."

"Hello, Teacher Cao, my name is Hu Jing."

"Hello Director Cao, my name is Zhang Ziyi."

"My name is Zhang Tong."

"My name is Zeng Li."

……

One after another, these beautiful women, who would all become famous in the future, introduced themselves to Cao Jian, making him a little dizzy.

Aside from Zhang Ziyi, all of these girls are very beautiful, and each has her own unique beauty. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are prettier than Lin Xinru.

Seeing his godfather leave behind document after document, Zhang Baizhi felt even more pressured.

Are all these people going to be sisters in the future?

too frightening.

Are there really that many beautiful women in mainland China?

"Hello Director Cao, my name is Wang Yan, and I acted in 'Plum Blossom Mark'."

Later, Wang Yan, who had been working with Cao Jian, also appeared before him.

This is Princess Qing'er, and Cao Jian has a good impression of her. They have worked together before, but the two of them have no relationship.

Although he had seen too many beautiful women these past few days, Cao Jian still felt that she was quite suitable for Qing'er.

"My name is Li Bingbing."

After Wang Yan, Li Bingbing, who had a brief affair with Cao Jian, also auditioned.

Because the woman performed quite well that night, Cao Jian decided to let her try out for the role of Liu Hong.

"Hello Director Cao, my name is Dong Jie."

Cao Jian saw this girl who looked incredibly innocent and pure, so he naturally kept her information.

Whether it's her looks or her temperament, Dong Jie is actually a very promising actress.

It's a pity that he played such a good hand so badly.

Now that I've run into you, I'll save you.

But when Boss Cao looked at the information of the actors selected before the New Year, he had another headache.

"Should I bring Wang Jinghua to the company? She's definitely good at managing artists, but what if she switches companies in the future?"

Cao Jian is too busy. He not only has to develop his career and film in China, but also has to expand his business in the United States and Japan. If he had someone like Wang Jinghua to help him, he might be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Unfortunately, Wang Jinghua initially collaborated with Huayi Brothers, but later betrayed them; she was inherently rebellious.
"Hello Director Cao, my name is Li Mingqi."

As Cao Jian was thinking, a clear, though somewhat aged voice drew everyone's attention back.

"Isn't this just like Rong Momo, who specializes in stabbing bad people?"

When Cao Jian saw this old artist, his first thought was of Rong Momo, and then of Wang Po.

But at this moment, the artist was not at all as frightening as he was in "Princess Pearl"; on the contrary, he had a kind and gentle expression.

Moreover, the speed of his speech, his tone, and every word he utters are very pleasant to listen to.

That's what makes a good actor.

He quickly stood up and politely invited Li Mingqi to sit down: "Old man, what brings you here for an audition? I was planning to invite you over sometime."

"I received an invitation from Qiong Yao to come and see you all auditioning, so I'll introduce myself."

The old lady was quite humorous and even joked with Cao Jian.

"You don't need to audition; you're the one for the role of Rong Momo in this drama."

Cao Jian has always had great respect for veteran artists, especially actors who are both virtuous and talented.

There were many actresses waiting for auditions at the door. Seeing how polite the famous director Cao was to this old man, they immediately liked their idol even more.

Some people even think that if you're going to get married, you should marry a man like this.

"Xiao Cao is a really good person."

Qiong Yao nodded, showing even more appreciation for Cao Jian.

There aren't many famous directors like Cao Jian these days; we should collaborate with him more often in the future.

Just then, a middle-aged woman walked into the audition room, followed by a young girl with a round face who looked a bit naive and shy.

"Bingbing?"

Cao Jian's gaze swept over the middle-aged woman and then settled on the little girl behind her.

Isn't this girl Fan Bingbing, whom I've been longing to find?
