Seclusion in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 21 Preparing for the audition

Lin Ming and Chen Feng had a very happy chat. On the other hand, the assistant brought by Lin Ming had a difficult conversation with Zhu Yonghe. After a lot of tug-of-war, the two sides finally chose "Song of Ordinary People" as the theme song. The copyright fee is set at 200,000.

This price is quite high compared to Chen Feng's popularity. After all, he is still a newcomer with almost zero fame. A singer of this level can spend tens of thousands or even thousands of dollars.

But the crux of the problem is that the work "Song of Ordinary People" is too classic, and the director Lin Ming and the heroine Su Jinxiu also have a soft spot for this song. The mentality of this song, so the negotiation has become a lot more passive.

But Zhu Yonghe is different. After signing the copyright agency agreement for the song "Song of Ordinary People" with Chen Feng, he not only praised the quality of the song "Song of Ordinary People" to the extreme, but also used the music New starting point this website to create momentum for their own negotiations.

"Mortal Song" is now a work that the website will focus on. No matter whether it is selected as the theme song of the TV series or not, it will be promoted with all its strength. This is what Zhu Yonghe relied on for negotiations.

In the end, Lin Ming's assistant retreated steadily in front of Zhu Yonghe. Although he tried his best to suppress the price, the price still exceeded the original budget.

But all of this is not important, as long as Lin Ming is happy.

Looking at Lin Ming who was chatting and laughing with Chen Feng, the little assistant could only sigh in the end.

After discussing everything, it was already evening, Lin Ming took the initiative to invite Chen Feng, An Ruohua, Zhu Yong and a few others to have dinner together.

At the dinner table, everyone relaxed a lot.

At this time, Zhu Yonghe's value was revealed again, because Chen Feng and An Ruohua didn't drink alcohol, so in the end, Zhu Yonghe was the only one to accompany him. His face was flushed, fluttering...

On the other side, An Ruohua and Su Jinxiu continued to chat while drinking drinks. When two women who were not very familiar met, they seemed to have endless things to say.

Chen Feng ate in silence. In this situation, his sense of presence was automatically reduced by ten times. He also liked the feeling of invisibility.

Sitting in the corner, Chen Feng glanced at An Ruohua, who was happily talking to Su Jinxiu, and at Lin Ming, who was clinking glasses with Zhu Yonghe, and silently thought: "It seems that I am helping Lin Ming do that. When composing the other two episodes, I should have used more snacks. After all, I need to help An Ruohua earn more face with Lin Ming. In this way, An Ruohua will have a better chance of being selected during the audition. Lin Ming can take care of her even more in the crew."

...

In the next few days, Chen Feng and An Ruo spent most of their time at home. Chen Feng was busy helping Lin Ming with the other two episodes, while An Ruohua was seriously preparing for the audition for the new play.

It was not difficult for Chen Feng to come up with two good songs, but for these two songs to fit the background of Lin Ming's stories and the needs of emotional expression, he had to think carefully.

"Reunion after a long absence and confusion... What kind of song is suitable?" Chen Feng put down the guitar in his hand and scratched his hair.

At this time, An Ruohua was also walking around in the living room.

"On the surface, I have completely given up on the person I love, but I am very unwilling in my heart. In the end, I have to force a smile in front of others... What kind of performance can best express this kind of emotion?"

While talking to herself, An Ruohua ran to the mirror, making various strange expressions and movements.

"Oh, it doesn't look very good... What should I do?" An Ruohua also scratched her hair.

At this time, Chen Feng happened to look over, An Ruohua immediately caught Chen Feng's gaze in the mirror,

The two looked at each other in the mirror and smiled.

"Are you hungry?"

"Are you hungry?"

The two asked in unison.

Well, both of you are hungry, so let’s go out and buy some food and make a delicious meal. As for the songs and performances, wait until you’re full, and then think about it!

...

Today is An Ruohua's audition day.

The location of the audition was set at the 'Lin Ming Film and Television Studio' outside the North Fifth Ring Road. As a well-known TV drama director, Lin Ming established his own company very early on. At the same time, he also maintained relationships with major entertainment companies and TV stations. A close cooperative relationship can be said to be like a fish in water in the entertainment industry, no matter who it is, it will sell him a little bit of noodles.

There were a lot of people who came to audition today. Although the male and female leads of this new drama had already been pre-determined, for a large number of middle and lower-level actors, being able to play an important supporting role in Lin Ming's TV drama was also an excellent resource.

Chen Feng and An Ruohua came a bit late, because Chen Feng had just completed the soundtrack of the two episodes, and at the last moment before going out, he sent the audition file to Lin Ming's personal mailbox.

I hope Lin Ming will like it after hearing it.

...

However, at this time Lin Ming was very unhappy.

Because there were too many people who came to audition today, he started interviewing with the main directors of the crew when he got up in the morning.

To make matters worse, many of the people who came to the audition had entrusted their relationships, and it was not so easy to refuse.

"Even if you trust the relationship, at least you should prepare well? Don't these idiots really think that it's enough to just go through the motions? Who does this take me, Lin Ming?"

Looking at the actors with poor acting skills in front of him, Lin Ming complained frantically in his heart.

Bored, Lin Ming picked up his phone and looked at it.

"Huh? New email? The sender, dusty? Oh, it's Chen Feng. This is... a new song?"

Finally, a little surprise came. Lin Ming ignored those clumsy actors, and directly downloaded the music file, put on the earphones and began to try it out.

The actor who was performing in front was dumbfounded, why did Director Lin put on the earphones all of a sudden? How can you hear my voice like this? Sound is also part of the performance!

The other persons in charge of the interview were also a little confused. What is Director Lin doing?

Everyone is at a loss.

Finally, the young actor who was performing couldn't help raising his hand to ask a question.

"Teachers... Director Lin... is he dissatisfied with my performance? Why did he... put on headphones?"

Lin Ming obviously didn't hear the actor's questioning, he was still immersed in the music.

"I came to your city, walking the way you came."

"Imagine how lonely you are without me?"

...

"Take the photo you gave me, the familiar street."

"It's just gone, your picture, we can't go back to that day."

"Well, this song is really good, it seems to be the feeling I want aha!" Lin Ming silently thought, and a look of excitement began to appear on his face.

...

"This classmate, please don't mind. Director Lin put on the earphones to evaluate your body language expression more purely. This is a way for Director Lin to observe actors. Don't worry, please continue to act..."

The person sitting next to Lin Ming gave a reasonable explanation in a hurry, and after he finished speaking, he secretly wiped off his sweat.

And Lin Ming didn't know about all of this!
