Chapter 40: The cast of "Dragon King, the Son-in-law of the City" starts(1/2)
On Saturday, March 5, the weather is sunny.
Today, "The Dragon King of the Urban Son-in-law" has been officially confirmed to be filmed, exclusively produced by Penguin Video, directed by Wei Fan and served as the chief producer.
The original author Pu Dinglai serves as the chief screenwriter, and Wang Jin and Zhang Wei serves as the deputy screenwriter.
The shooting cost is 5 million yuan.
This was the result of Wei Fan's discussion at Penguin Film and Television with the script. Penguin favored the project, invested 1 million yuan, and took away 10% of the dividend rights.
In other words, after this film is on Penguin Video, in addition to a fixed share, 10% of the total revenue will enter the Penguin's pocket.
This result is very good.
Wei Fan can feel a little more at ease if someone shares the risks.
Moreover, the production funds have increased by 1 million, which may be insignificant for big movies. You can get some special effects and use them for promotion and distribution. If you buy a few days of hot searches on Weibo, you will lose it.
But for low-cost dramas, they can already be much more abundant.
Wei Fan came to Beijing Art with his associate director, producer, makeup and photography team.
Check in to the Beiyi School Guesthouse with great fanfare.
Now, all the students of Beijing Arts know that there is a crew that is a serious crew produced by Penguin Film and Television. They want to film a TV series adapted from the same name of "The Son-in-law of the Urban Son-in-law" and select actors from our school.
The crew is preparing to launch new actors, and the director is also a senior at Beijing Arts.
In an instant, the students in the performance department were all in a mess!
Many students have set their sights on this opportunity. It doesn’t matter whether they make money or not, but mainly have a role.
Qualifications!
Actors with performance experience will be more likely to find crew members after graduation.
And if this drama becomes popular, it will be a well-known actor who has starred in a popular TV series.
Is it so shining when I was a student, how could I go out?
Of course, this is the fantasy of many performance students...
Most people may only play a small role, have a few lines, and die after appearing in one episode.
There are only a few male protagonists, female protagonists, and male supporting roles. If a few more unspoken rules are set, there will not be many people who can be left for them to run for election.
etc!
Unspoken rules?
Male director?
Male screenwriter?
In his prime, girls of different beauty have taken some thoughts...
Who will ask which room the director and screenwriter live in?
Girls' dormitory 520, Zhu Yinyin listened to everyone's discussion, and her eyes were shining with crystal light.
She had known this news for a long time and even made a connection with the author of the original work. At least when casting, the starting point was already much higher than others.
The original author's face...at least she can pass the first round of auditions.
Moreover, she has studied the two main female characters in the book "The Son-in-law of the Urban Son-in-law" and has done her homework.
In the performance, she believed that she could definitely suppress others!
Since the crew has arrived, then... it's time for her to use the means.
Open WeChat and find Pu Jie...
...
That night.
The school's Dean of the Performance Department, Dean of the Director Department and Vice President of the Supervisor received this outstanding alumnus.
What are outstanding alumni?
Those who can donate to schools, provide employment quotas, and those who are famous are all.
Wei Fan wanted Pu Jie to attend this dinner together, to show off his face in front of these leaders of the school, and to help him with any problems in the future.
He was rejected by Pu Jie.
It's not social terror, but... he has an appointment tonight.
After finishing the typing early, Pu Jie changed into a new coat he bought for himself during the Chinese New Year.
I took a look at the news on my phone, and a smile hanged on the corner of my mouth, and I went out.
520 girls dormitory.
Zhu Yinyin held the phone and her face looked gloomy and gloomy.
Looking at Jiang Yuhan with joyful eyes and wearing makeup, she felt a bad premonition...
"Yuhan, will you have dinner together tonight?"
"I can't go to eat steak with my friends tonight."
"Oh? Which friend, do I know, can't I be a boyfriend?"
Jiang Yuhan's face turned red.
"Talent...it's not, it's not...it's just an ordinary friend."
Not an ordinary friend who can criticize him, right?
"Oh...why would you take me with me? I'll help you with the staff, and I'm just going to want to eat steak too."
Jiang Yuhan showed a look of hesitation on her face, and then said, "No...no, I didn't tell anyone."
"There is nothing bad. Let's have dinner with him. It's a bargain. Let's go~"
Zhu Yinyin had already packed up her makeup before and began to pull Jiang Yuhan away.
Jiang Yuhan is a soft-hearted person and doesn't know how to refuse.
"Then...well, don't talk nonsense, we are really... just ordinary friends."
Her voice was as thin as a mosquito and flies, and her blushing look, who could believe that this was an ordinary friend?
Zhu Yinyin doesn't believe it anyway.
The two of them went out hand in hand with their cell phones.
Under the bright light of Zhu Yinyin's mobile phone screen, the WeChat chat box is revealed.
[Zhu Yinyin: Are you free at night? Do you want to watch a movie together?]
[Pu Jie: Uh... I have an appointment tonight, sorry]
[Zhu Yinyin: Are you having dinner with the crew? I can wait until you part and go to find you]
[Pu Jie: No, there should be no time today, let's talk about it another day]
【Zhu Yinyin: OK...】
......
At the school guesthouse, Pu Jie came to meet Wei Bian, mainly because the actor auditions will start tomorrow, and the two of them determined some matters.
The male protagonist Wei Fan has already arranged it, Guan Yunpeng.
He is a well-known actor.
He has played some supporting roles, and this is his first movie to play the leading role.
Wei Fan gave Pu Jie a look with his makeup photo.
Strong, handsome, sharp eyes and crooked mouth!
Although I don’t know why a photo can show the sharpness, Pu Jie saw sharpness and unruly in his eyes.
"How is it? Do you have the Dragon King style?"
"Without having it, there is definitely this crooked mouth! But it's too Dragon King!"
Pu Jie felt that the image of this Dragon King was exactly the same as in the book. Just put a photo there and his mouth tilted, he was the Dragon King!
"Come on, check this out again"
Another photo is still the man just now, wearing ordinary clothes and smiling at the front.
Thin, sunny, honest.
The contrast between the one just now was very different, and the sharpness of his eyes disappeared, and he became an ordinary honest person.
At first glance, I was the new employee in the office, and anyone could bully him.
"this!"
Wei Fan smiled and said, "Isn't it good? This is the Dragon King's daily life photo. The one above is an explosion photo. The two forms are randomly switched. When I read your novel, I thought of him!"
