My ex is a diva, I'm on fire

Chapter 283 Chapter 282, Entering the Campus, Actor Recruitment! (two in one)

Penguin Video Headquarters.

Wang Dalong has been guarding the background data of "Beginning" in the technical department. At eleven o'clock, the total playback volume of "Beginning" has exceeded 3000 million.

The effective view volume of the first episode is 1000 million, the second episode is 800 million, the third episode is 700 million, and the fourth episode is 500 million!
I'm angry!

This is really hot!
The statistics of "The Beginning" were pretty good when it first aired, but that had a lot to do with the recent publicity and the influence of Chen Wenhan and Lin Nian.

The performance of a drama still depends on the incremental data of the follow-up. Right now, "The Beginning" has been online for four hours, and all the data have skyrocketed exponentially, and the broadcast volume of each episode is very healthy.

In particular, there is only a difference of 100 million between the free second episode and the third episode that requires VIP. Considering the time difference between the audience's pursuit of the drama, this difference in broadcast volume is almost negligible, that is to say, "The Beginning" The VIP rate is scary.

Aside from the users who are members of Penguin Video, within just four hours, "Beginning" helped Penguin to attract a million new members, which is simply terrifying!
The next day, the good word-of-mouth of "The Beginning" continued to ferment, and various data also increased in an orderly manner.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, the official Weibo released a celebration poster with over [-] million views.

But this time, Penguin Video's publicity did not use the previous mugshot poster of Chen Wenhan and Lin Nian, but used a still photo of Chen Wenhan holding Lin Youyou running forward as a celebration poster.

Obviously Penguin's publicity is really professional. After "The Beginning" was launched last night, Lin Youyou has attracted countless fans with her sweet appearance and good acting skills.

Overnight, the number of Weibo fans directly exceeded one million!
It perfectly interprets what it means to be an "overnight hit"!
And the combination of Lin Youyou and Chen Wenhan was dubbed "Circular CP" by the audience!
This name is naturally based on the plot of "The Beginning". In the play, the two are caught in an infinite loop, so there is also the name "Cycle CP".

However, some fans call them "Lingou CP2.0"!
"Lingou CP" was originally what netizens called Chen Wenhan and Lin Nian, and Lin Youyou was also surnamed Lin, so some netizens jokingly called them the "Lingou CP2.0" version.

No matter what CP it is, in short, Lin Youyou is considered popular.

Straight from being transparent from a young age, she became a new flower with millions of fans.

And such a speed of becoming popular was completely unexpected by Lin Youyou, and she was not mentally prepared for it.

The next morning, she went to the cafeteria to have breakfast as usual, but she was recognized on the way to the cafeteria, and many people came to take pictures with her.

This is also the case when eating in the cafeteria, so that the breakfast that can usually be prepared in ten minutes takes more than half an hour. If it is not that she is late for class, she will not be able to walk out after class. canteen.

"Yuyou, you're really hot!"

"Should I have a treat to celebrate??"

On the way to the teaching building, roommate Sun Qianying said with a smile.

"It must be a treat!"

"If I don't eat Yoyo for a few meals now, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it in the future!" Zhang Jiaqi echoed.

"Just please."

"You choose what you want to eat."

Lin Youyou waved her hand grandly. A few days ago, her remuneration for the filming of "The Beginning" has already been transferred to the bank card, a total of 6 yuan.

Chen Wenhan gave full play to the spirit of the unscrupulous boss, and only paid Lin Youyou 5000 yuan per episode, which was exactly 6 yuan for the twelve episodes of "The Beginning".

The heroine only gets paid 5000 yuan for one episode, which looks like a small amount, but it’s actually quite a lot. Lin Youyou is a newcomer after all, and 5000 yuan for one episode is actually a lot. Even if it’s two or three thousand yuan for one episode, there are many people who are willing play.

What's more, this thing can't be measured by salary. If Lin Youyou wasn't Lin Nian's cousin, and she didn't know Chen Wenhan before, let alone 5000 yuan for an episode, she wouldn't be able to play the heroine even if she was asking Chen Wenhan for money.

"Yuyou, is Mr. Chen's Mahjong Entertainment still recruiting actors? I also want to sign with his company."

Sun Qianying said again.

"And me, I also want to sign with Mr. Chen's company, even if it's a contract of sale, it doesn't matter!" Zhang Jiaqi also nodded repeatedly.

"I don't know about this, but when I was filming, I heard Teacher Chen say that "The Beginning" is just a test of water. If the effect is good, the company may set up a special film and television production department."

This kind of thing is not a secret, Lin Youyou responded casually.

""The Beginning" is popular, the effect is obviously good!"

Sun Qianying held Lin Youyou's arm and said, "Youyou, if Teacher Chen recruits actors, you must notify us as soon as possible!"

"Hmm, yes."

Lin Youyou nodded. She has always gotten along very well with Sun Qianying and Zhang Jiaqi, and their relationship is not bad, so she will help out with little effort.

In the classroom of acting class two.

A tall girl with long wavy hair was surrounded by several classmates. Her name was Han Ranran.

She is also Lin Youyou's roommate, but she has been filming outside before, and she just returned to school this morning, and then went directly to the classroom.

Han Ranran is the second-generation star, and her mother is a well-known actor, so she has good resources. She has often filmed movies since her freshman year.

The classmates all know that she has a lot of connections and are willing to make friends with her. They haven't seen her for a while, and everyone is chatting with her.

"Yuyo is here!"

"Yuyou, take a picture together!"

"Wow, the big star of our class!"

"Yuyou, you've been my goddess since yesterday!"

As soon as Lin Youyou appeared, the classroom suddenly boiled.

Han Ranran, who was chatting with someone, immediately greeted her with a smile on her face, and gave Lin Youyou a big hug without saying a word: "Yuyou, long time no see, I really want to die!"

"Yes, long time no see!"

Lin Youyou replied with a smile that her relationship with Han Ranran was actually better than that of Sun Qianying and Zhang Jiaqi.

Some time ago, Lin Youyou first joined the filming crew of "The Beginning", and then Han Ranran joined the crew again. The two haven't seen each other for more than a month.

"Yuyou and Ran Ran are born in the same dormitory, such crouching dragons and phoenix chicks are really amazing!"

"That's right! Qianying, Jiaqi, you have to work hard. If you become popular again, your dormitory will become a star dormitory!"

There are classmates around feeling emotional.

There is no movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City" in this time and space, so Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Young is still a compliment!

Han Ranran and Lin Youyou had a very intimate chat, then pulled her to the seat next to him and sat down.

Naturally, she also watched "The Beginning". After all, it was a web drama in which her friend acted as the heroine, and even if it wasn't starring Lin Youyou, if there were Lin Nian and Chen Wenhan in this drama, she would probably watch it.

As for the fact that Lin Youyou became famous overnight, Han Ranran, as a good friend, was very happy for her, and at the same time naturally envious.

"Yuyou, on the high-speed train back, I finished the first four episodes of "The Beginning". Your acting is really good, and the plot is also good. I haven't seen such an interesting suspense drama for a long time."

"Spoiler, what happened next?"

Han Ranran held Lin Youyou's arm and asked about the plot.

"Yuyou, tell me, I want to know the story behind, why did the bus explode?"

Sun Qianying, who was sitting on the other side of Lin Youyou, also asked.

"You guys want to spoil it, so I'll say it"

Lin Youyou liked the story of "The Beginning" very much, and she could memorize the script backwards, so she vividly told her roommates about the following plot.

And when she was talking about the critical moment, their class teacher and acting teacher Xu Minglan walked into the classroom.

The originally noisy classroom suddenly became quiet, and Lin Youyou could only stop.

"A film crew came to the school to recruit actors. Everyone is ready to prepare, and this class will be added later."

As soon as Xu Minglan spoke, the classroom that had just quieted down suddenly became noisy again.

"Mr. Xu, what crew?"

"Is there any main character left for us?"

"Which big director is it?"

The students asked eagerly.

Hengzhou Film and Television Academy is not far from Hengzhou Film and Television City, so there are often film crews who come directly to the school to recruit actors, but the school does not necessarily pay so much attention to it. Usually, it will be arranged when there are no classes, and it will respect the students themselves. If you want to go, you can go if you want to go, and if you don’t want to go, you don’t go.

But this time Xu Minglan's intentions were obvious, he asked the whole class to go, and even postponed the acting class, which showed that the crew that came this time was a heavyweight.

Xu Minglan reached out to suppress the sound waves in the classroom, and said seriously: "The crew is not a big crew, and the director is not very famous."

Uh?
This?
Hearing what she said, the students were all dumbfounded.

At this time, I heard Xu Minglan continue to say: "But the producer of this show is Mahjong Entertainment, the screenwriter is Feng Qingyang, the filming team of "The Beginning", and as the producer, Chen Wenhan also came to the school!"

"Chen Wenhan?"

"Teacher Chen??"

"I'm going, it's true!!"

"The filming team of "The Beginning" is awesome!!"

After hearing Xu Minglan's words, the students in the class couldn't calm down immediately, they were both surprised and excited.

Then, many people looked at Lin Youyou.

She is the heroine of "The Beginning" and a signed actor of Mahjong Entertainment, so she should know some inside information.

In fact, Lin Youyou knew nothing about Chen Wenhan's coming to the school. Like everyone else, she only knew about it after hearing Xu Minglan's words.

"Yuyou, what kind of movie is Mr. Chen going to film?"

"Yuyou, you are from Mahjong Entertainment, so you shouldn't need an interview!"

"Yuyou, do you want to reveal some inside information?"

Han Ranran, Sun Qianying and others immediately started gossiping around Lin Youyou.

Acting class rehearsal room.

A row of tables and chairs was temporarily placed here, and it was transformed into a scene for the actor recruitment of "Hitchhiking".

When filming "The Beginning", Chen Wenhan handed over an improved version of the script of "Hitching the Wrong Car" to Lan Zhengye. When the post-production work of "The Beginning" was over, he began to prepare for the film "Hitching the Wrong Car".

The heroine has already decided on Lin Nian, but the other roles have not yet been decided.

In fact, according to the script, this drama does not need many young actors, mainly because the heroine needs singers, dancers and so on after joining the performing arts company.

Originally, there was no need to specially go to the Film and Television Academy to recruit actors. There are thousands of extras and small actors in Hengzhou Film and Television City, which can meet the needs of filming.

But those ensemble performers and young actors are naturally unable to compare with the students of the Film and Television Academy.

But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Chen Wenhan wants to see if there are any good seedlings. The popularity of "The Beginning" has made him firm up his determination to enter the film and television industry, so he plans to sign a group of actors, students from the film and television academy. It has been screened very strictly, and the success rate is higher.

"Boss, there are already 30 people in line, can we start?"

Along with Chen Wenhan, apart from Lan Zhengye, Zhang Dajun, the assistant director of "The Beginning", came to Hengzhou Film and Television Academy.

He is now also an employee of Mahjong Entertainment. Zhang Dajun belongs to the casting director and is responsible for recruiting extras, special actors and some small roles.

He is very experienced in recruiting actors.

"let's start."

Chen Wenhan, who was sitting in the middle, nodded slightly.

Afterwards, the students who lined up outside the door entered the interview site one by one.

The performance major of Hengzhou Film and Television Academy holds two classes every year, with 40 students in each class. Theoretically, there are 320 students in the fourth class of the school.

But after the junior and senior years, there are fewer students in the acting class, especially the senior students, who are almost all running the crew outside, and some students who cannot participate in the recruitment due to other reasons are excluded, come to the interview There are about 60 or [-] students in the school.

And these students from major classes are indeed excellent in all aspects, so that Chen Wenhan is a little dazzled
"Next person!"

Zhang Dajun put the last student's resume aside, then nodded to the school staff guarding the door.

The latter opened the door and another student entered the room.

After seeing this student, Chen Wenhan pouted speechlessly: "Yuyou, why are you joining in the fun!"

"Teacher Xu asked us all to come."

Lin Youyou replied with a smile.

"Sit on the side and watch."

Chen Wenhan casually pointed to the empty seat beside him.

"Oh."

Lin Youyou nodded, pulled a chair and sat directly behind Chen Wenhan, then asked in a low voice: "Mr. Chen, why didn't you tell me before you came?"

"Why should I tell you?"

Chen Wenhan asked back.

"Uh"

Lin Youyou was speechless, she was the boss, and indeed she had no obligation to report the itinerary to her.

"I just thought it was sudden."

Lin Youyou pursed her mouth and said.

"When the interview is over, you will be given the opportunity to be treated by the host."

Chen Wenhan smiled and waved his hands. At this time, the next student had already entered the room. It was Lin Youyou's roommate and classmate Han Ranran.

"Hello, Teacher Chen, Hello, Director Lan, and Hello, Director Zhang!"

"My name is Han Ranran, I am 20 years old, and I am a sophomore this year. I have filming experience in more than ten plays."

Han Ranran, who had seen big scenes before, was not stage-frightened at all, and introduced his situation confidently and calmly. From time to time, he would glance at Lin Youyou who was sitting obliquely behind Chen Wenhan.

"Your mother is Teacher Han Ruifang?"

Lan Zhengye and Han Ruifang had worked together before. At that time, Han Ruifang brought his daughter Han Ranran to the set, but that happened three or four years ago, and Lan Zhengye didn't dare to confirm it.

"Yes."

Han Ranran nodded and said, "A few years ago, I met Director Lan on the set of "Countdown"."

"Well, I said it looks familiar!"

Lan Zhengye nodded slightly.

"Hey, I'm still an old acquaintance."

"It seems that there is no need for it."

Chen Wenhan joked with a smile, although he didn't know Han Ranran, but the other party gave her a good first impression, and his appearance was also good.
