Perfect Life

Li Qian soon understood why Jin Han asked such a slightly strange question just now. Dust ↑ Fate ↓ Wen ↙ Learning? Net

He asked, "Is this the main room?"

Li Qian replied, "Main room."

Open the folder, and on each page, the character's name and requirements are written at the top, and below are the photos of two or three candidates and a brief personal introduction.

A few pages were hurriedly turned over, and it is no exaggeration to say that the students of Huaxia Theatre Academy accounted for less than half.

However, after a little thought, Li Qian understood that the reason for this situation is not that someone did it deliberately, but it was actually due to the actual situation.

"Meteor Garden" is an urban idol drama. In another time and space, it was remade from Japan, but at this time, Li Qian deliberately collected information in order to avoid accidents. In Japan, at least until now, it has not been like this. One of the comics, novels or TV dramas exists, so, of course, a considerable degree of Chinese setting can be carried out in terms of name and setting.

But no matter how the basic setting is changed, this is an idol romance drama made for young people, it must be the main tone of the whole drama, and it is also the guarantee of its future sales. Naturally, it is impossible to change.

Since it is an idol drama, it is conceivable that most of the actors needed in this drama are young actors in their twenties - the characters in the play are set to be seventeen or eighteen years old, but the actors can relax. It's okay to be 25 years old. If you are particularly tender, it's not a big problem for an actor who is 27 or 8 years old to play an 18-year-old role.

Therefore, logically speaking, the casting range of this play can be very large.

Not to mention anything else in the domestic entertainment industry, there are a lot of young handsome men and beautiful women!

But don't forget, there's also a cost issue here!

Regardless of Minghu Culture or Li Qian himself, they are definitely the kind of existences that are willing to spend money on filming, but even so, it is necessary to suppress costs appropriately and within a controllable range.

Even, for any production company, film and television company, and producer, trying to compress the cost as much as possible without affecting the shooting quality is a profound knowledge!

What's more... this is just an idol drama!

As Li Qian said to Jin Han before, he can completely treat this TV series as an extended version of the MV - handsome men and beautiful women, talk about love, talk about love, the pictures are exquisite and beautiful, that's it!

Jin Han and Han Shunzhang have already visited the main location, and they chose a university in Xiamen. Li Qian did not go there, but he has seen the videos and photos taken by Jin Han with people. The scenery, buildings, and even the The weather is very beautiful and very picturesque. It is perfect for idol dramas.

Then, rent a few suitable apartments and villas locally to shoot some shots, and the framing of the play is basically complete!

As for the costumes, there are not many characters in urban dramas. It is enough to make several school uniforms for one person, plus a few simple young people to dress up.

Even the props needed for the filming of this play are very simple...

These are all aspects of controlling the cost of shooting, but for this play, the actors' remuneration, crew expenses, and shooting costs are the biggest piece.

In particular, actors' remuneration can be more or less, large or small.

Although China has not yet entered the idol era, if you want to hire big names, young actors in their 20s and 20s in China are paid tens of thousands of dollars for a single episode, and they need more than one million yuan for a movie. There are many people, but TV dramas like "Meteor Garden", in Li Qian's opinion, can be popular, and they don't need to spend a lot of money to hire famous actors.

So, it must be cheap and handsome, and there must be a certain acting guarantee, what should I do?

The students of Shunying, Huaxi and Songjiang Theatre Academy are of course the most affordable ones.

Li Qian carefully flipped through the folder in his hand, while he was looking at it, he was thinking about various aspects in his heart, until he had read it all, then he turned back to the first page and nodded slowly.

Han Shunzhang is prudent and considerate in his work, while Jin Han seems to be a little careless, but his mind is frighteningly delicate. If you think about it, you will know that he is a director of literary and artistic films!

Therefore, this time the casting, the current list of candidates, is simply exhaustive.

As a product produced by Minghu Culture Film and Television Department, giving priority to taking care of one's own people as much as possible is of course the meaning of the title. Therefore, except for Bai Yujing, which is a little inappropriate, and Jin Han does not dare to use Bai Niangzi to film idol dramas In addition, Wang Jinglu, Zhu Qiang, Shen Tiantian, Ming Hai, the four contracted actors of Minghu Culture Film and Television Department, have all been included in the candidates.

Even Bai Yujing's younger brother Liu Zhongxin, who is currently regarded as a drama executive in the film and television department, was specially included in the group performance list by Jin Han and Han Shunzhang.

Surprisingly, Sun Ruoxuan, Xie Bing and Wang Jingxue were also included in the list.

Li Qian guessed that this was most likely the result of Zou Wenhuai's operation, but the three of them followed the path of the idol group, and it was a natural fit to shoot this non-idol drama.

In the end, sisters Wang Jingxue and Wang Jinglu, plus Xie Bing, became the candidates for the female lead.

Xie Bing, Sun Ruoxuan and Shen Tiantian became the second female candidates.

And Zhu Qiang and Ming Hai are both candidates for F4, of which Zhu Qiang is the male protagonist - at that time, this role was called Daoming Si, but now, his name is Du Mingfeng.

Except for Minghu Culture, the vast majority of the other candidates are almost all graduates and students from major art colleges.

Li Qian also paid special attention to it. Among them, there are only four of them from the 96th grade performance department of Huaxia Academy of Drama, which means that they must be classmates of Wang Jinglu!

Looking at the resume, there is a man named Zhu Yukun. Even when he was a sophomore or junior, he had already appeared in a romance drama as the second male lead. He is now considered a little popular in China, and Jin Han listed him as the second male lead. The first candidate for No. , is obviously a favorite.

Of course, maybe this has something to do with Wang Jinglu being the real proprietress of Minghu Culture?

Li Qian was too lazy to guess their thoughts. After reading it, he thought for a while, closed the folder, and said with a smile, "Xiao Lu probably doesn't want to take part in the show, right? You go to her, I can't agree on her behalf, but I personally suggest it. , Wang Jingxue is not suitable, brush it off, her temperament is too cold and too hard."

Having said this, he thought about it again, and said seriously: "Lao Jin, Senior Brother Han, it's been a long time since the three of us have been working together. I'll give this play to you, just to you, you can do things with confidence. , all I want is a good filming, and for the rest, you don't need to worry about anyone or anything."

Han Shunzhang heard Li Qian and nodded silently, while Jin Han said "hey", with a half-smile but not a smile. After a while, he said, "It's done, your message is received!"

While talking, he didn't even look at Han Shunzhang, and said directly: "Then I'll just talk about my opinion, Wang Jingxue is indeed too cold, and it doesn't match the character setting, Xie Bing is sweet enough, but it's too sweet. It's really the most suitable for Xiaolu, if she doesn't want to take the role, then we know that we have to consider other people, the big deal is to inform some people and have a third interview."

Speaking of which, he continued on his own: "As for Sun Ruoxuan, it's enough to make a cameo appearance. It's okay not to watch her hosting the show, but I've seen it when I filmed MV for them. It's head-turning, Ming Hai Nan No. 4, it can be used, but Zhu Qiang is too demonic and too beautiful, I don't need it. Besides, as soon as he appears, everyone knows that his name is Xu Xian, and he is an idol drama! Shen Tiantian is worth sculpting Carved, it's not that the role of Xiaoyou can't be given to her, but she doesn't look like an idol..."

Speaking of which, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Qian, still with the prelude of a smile that was not a smile, "Then I will really start picking people from outside the company, don't blame me for not cultivating yourself afterwards. people!"

Li Qian laughed, "I told you from the beginning that you are fully responsible, you have to test me, and use such a thing to fool me, are you tired?"

Jin Han smiled, "Okay! That's clear! It's easy to handle this way!" As he spoke, he glanced back at Han Shunzhang proudly.

Han Shunzhang just smiled lightly, and didn't mean to speak.

But then, Jin Han asked again: "But then again, you wrote the script, so there must be a similar prototype in your heart, right? Do you have any suitable actors to recommend?"

Li Qian thought for a while after hearing the words, "Don't say it, there are a few you can recommend, but... you wouldn't say that I interfered with your selection, right?"

Jin Han said carelessly: "You just recommend yours, it's up to me to use it or not!"

Li Qian nodded, "Okay, then I'll ask people if they'd like to act!"

…………

"Okay, it's been a while since I finished filming that drama last time, and no one has asked me to act anymore. I was thinking about it a few days ago. As an actor, I really failed! There is a movie, but there is no contract for a movie!"

While talking, Cheng Suping slowly cut the steak on the plate, looked up at Li Qian, and said with a smile, "It's my brother who thinks of me, and I'm thinking of my sister when something good happens."

Li Qian smiled, "So, did you take it?"

Cheng Suping elegantly put a piece of beef into his mouth, and said easily: "Yes, why not? My second role! Take it if you don't give me money!"

Li Qian also cut the steak and said with a smile, "Just wait for your words. Then there will be no pay! Jin Han must be very happy to join for zero pay! He is worried that he can't control the cost!"

Cheng Suping stopped when he heard the words, slowly chewed the beef in his mouth, and glared over.

Under the slightly yellowed light, her eyes were gleaming, with a thin smile and anger, which was a rare beauty in the world.

Li Qian smiled, "There is a paycheck, of course!"

Cheng Suping smiled smugly and continued to wave the knife and fork.

However, she cut another piece of meat, just put it on the fork, and before she put it in her mouth, she suddenly looked at her plate, then at Li Qian's plate, licked her lips, put down the knife and fork, turned her head and hit the waiter over there. Snap your fingers.

Li Qian chewed the beef in his mouth, watched the waiter come over curiously, and then saw Cheng Suping pointed at himself lightly, and said to the waiter, "Give him another serving of sirloin, seven mature, he only likes to eat steak. ."

The waiter nodded, "Ok lady, I'll order for you right away, please wait."

Li Qian's half of the beef was still not chewed. When the waiter left, he wondered and asked, "I don't want it!"

Cheng Suping elegantly forked the beef and put it in his mouth, looking intoxicated, and chewed a few mouthfuls before saying, "I didn't ask for it for you, I asked for it for myself! But I'm a girl, I'm sorry to ask for two copies. I finally got a man to invite me to eat Western food, of course I want to take the opportunity to eat two!”

Li Qian was stunned. After a while, he nodded, put down the knife and fork and just wanted to raise his hand, Cheng Suping quickly dropped the knife and fork, and patted his hand down, "Don't call the waiter, don't use my method!"

Li Qian smiled, lowered his head and picked up the knife and fork to continue eating.

Cheng Suping also smiled, continued to cut the steak, and asked easily: "By the way, you haven't told me yet, what role do I need to play?"

Li Qian said: "A supporting role is... the female No. 3? In the play, it is the sister of the male lead. Oh, by the way, I'm only responsible for recommending, if you don't need it, I can't be the master. Jin Han is the director."

Cheng Suping smiled arrogantly, put down the knife and fork, and clenched his fist, the queen said with a full and authentic voice: "Definitely win!"

…………

"Hello, Li Qian? Why did you remember to call me?"

"Mr. Lu, are you not sleeping?"

"No, I just went to take a bath. It's late. You can tell me if you have something to do."

"That's it, Senior Sister Qin has been doing well recently, right? Are you still in the show?"

Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and couldn't help laughing, "Why, are you afraid that she will not be in debt?"

Li Qian also smiled, but did not defend, just said: "Our company is going to open a play recently, the script is mine, the director is Lao Jin, brother Jin Han, the executive producer is Han Shunzhang, brother Han, it is a film In idol dramas, I think Senior Sister Qin's image is more suitable for acting in this type of drama, and her acting skills are definitely fine, so I would like to ask you for help to see if she is willing to come over to take a role or something."

On the other end of the phone, Lu Lingxi was silent for a moment, and said, "Li Qian, you have your heart. I thank you on her behalf!" At this point, she hesitated for a moment, but suddenly sighed, "This girl... how do you say it! "

Li Qian asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Lu Lingxi said, "She's been pursuing Jin Han recently, do you know that?"

"Uh……"

Li Qian was stunned~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Of course he didn't know about this. He was so busy every day, and he was continuously besieged by the media recently. How could he have the intention to pay attention to a person who was not very close. How's your sister going? What's more, there doesn't seem to be any media coverage of this matter, and it seems to be still in an underground state?

At this time, Lu Lingxi has continued: "Hey, I guess you don't know, you are probably in a lot of trouble with your own affairs recently, right?" Having said this, she paused for a moment, and then continued: "I know you are I'm trying to pull my senior sister as much as possible, but Jingjing's situation is a bit special recently, so I'll find time to help you ask, but I guess she won't pick it up, hehe..."

Li Qian smiled bitterly, but nodded, "That's ok, it's her problem whether she takes it or not, right?"

Lu Lingxi made a sound of "um", and after a while, she said, "She should already know that you lent me the money, but she seems to really like Lu Ping, and Lu Ping..."

"I know." Li Qian smiled, "I know."

"Yeah." Lu Lingxi said, "This... I'm a little sorry for you! It hurts you! Lu Ping, he... Alas, I don't know what to say. For you, it must be a disaster!"

Li Qian laughed, "It's my honor to be Teacher Lu's flower protector. It's not arrogant!"

Lu Lingxi laughed, "Nonsense again! Do you talk to the teacher like that? You dare to molest the teacher, I'm so capable!"

Li Qian also smiled, "Then it's settled! You can ask her what she means depending on the situation. If she is interested, she can go to our company and find Lao Jin directly. If she is not interested at all, forget it. ."

Lu Lingxi gave an "um" and said, "Okay, don't worry, I will definitely finish it." (To be continued.)
