What's wrong with 18-line sticky coffee, with 100 million points of resources?

Chapter 122

When Sheng Xi suffered a setback in the capital, Sheng Wan had already taken a fancy to a costume script.

It was Feng Hui who brought back a script called "Beauty Conspiracy". Sheng Wan only read it for a while and was fascinated by the plot.

This script roughly tells the story of a princess who, for the sake of the righteousness of her family and country, marries another country, and finally uses her wisdom to make the two countries have a good relationship.

What attracted Shengwan was the heroine's intelligence. She liked the smart character, so she decided to accept the script.

"This is Director Chen's script. He is particularly good at shooting costume dramas. He basically makes one hit and the next, so there are many people who want to act in his script."

In other words, the competition is huge, and whether you can win or not depends on your ability.

Sheng Wan also knew this truth, "No problem, I'll audition for the show whenever it is, and we'll see if it works or not."

Since she has chosen to take this path, she has to work hard to get a script she likes.

Feng Huiqing said, "I have been paying attention to this project for a long time. I thought it would be postponed before launching. It is best to wait until "Sunflower" is broadcast. By then you will be considered a person with works, and then compete for "Beauty Man". "The role might have been a lot easier, but now it might be a lot more difficult."

Although "Sunflower" is Director Jiang's play, the competition is also not low, but Director Jiang's plays are usually serious dramas, such as "Sunflower", which is a play that tests acting skills very much. Most people would not dare to audition if they don't know what they are doing. , even if you go, you won't be able to succeed in the audition.

"Beautiful Man" is adapted from a novel, and the original work is very popular. These days, adapted dramas have become very popular. Many artists have been directly promoted to the first and second tiers because of an adapted drama, and even more successful ones have directly become top-tier.

Therefore, there is a huge market for adapted dramas, and "Beauty" belongs to the category of ancient puppet dramas. Nowadays, the ancient puppet drama market is the most popular. It can be said that as long as the dramatists do not make magical changes, the production will definitely be successful.

The key is that this kind of ancient puppet show does not have high requirements for actors' acting skills. As long as the image is not very bad, anyone dares to audition, and the competition will naturally be high.

"It's okay, just forget it if I can't do the audition, I don't have to do this." It would be best if he could win it, but if he couldn't win it, Sheng Wan would not let himself continue to dwell on this matter.

Feng Hui nodded, "Okay, then I'll send your information to the crew right now. Once they agree, we'll notify you of the audition time before we go."

On the part of the producers of "Beauty Plan", director Chen and the producers did not use acting skills as their first reference.

Since the news of the show starting filming, many artists have expressed interest in auditioning. Director Chen and the producers are now watching the film and television clips of these potential artists.

"The key is to choose a character with an image that fits the role. It doesn't matter if the acting skills are not good. Of course, it's even more rare to have someone with acting skills and an image that matches the role." Director Chen said.

Who doesn’t want someone who has acting skills and an image that just fits the character in the play?But this is tantamount to wanting both the fish and the bear's paw. Being too greedy will only waste time.

Therefore, between acting but not image and having image but not acting, the director would definitely choose to have image without hesitation. In idol dramas, appearance comes first.

Director Chen is confident in his own drama. As long as the characters are chosen appropriately, the drama will be half successful. This is what he has said from many years of experience.

As for magic transformation, it will not happen in his drama. Although capital is now in power, when a person's ability reaches a certain level, capital will give in.

Director Chen is a capable and capital-savvy person. He has no worries about not having investment. With his connections, it is not difficult to attract a few investors, so he will focus on casting and script creation. Now that the script is created, the character is the top priority. "The heroine in the play has a setting that will captivate the country. Those whose appearance does not meet this condition can be directly removed." The producer took a stack of photos, screened them one by one, selected the right ones, and put them on the screen. On one side, the staff opened the other party's film and television clips for the director to check.

Director Chen just watched a film and television clip of an artist. He has good looks, but his acting skills are too poor, giving people a dull feeling. Even if his acting skills are too poor, he must at least be qualified, right?It can't even reach sixty points, it's too stretched.

"I feel like in this entertainment industry, good-looking female artists basically have no acting skills, while average-looking female artists have good acting skills. Can't this be balanced?" The director couldn't help but complain after looking at it for a long time.

"Perhaps good-looking people have been blessed with unique conditions since childhood, so they experience fewer hardships. Without experience, they naturally cannot feel it, and thus they cannot perform emotional scenes." said the producer. .

Director Chen said nothing and asked the staff to switch to the next artist video.

Finally, he turned to Zhou Ruxue's film and television clips, and the director watched them for a while.

What can I say about Zhou Ruxue? She has good looks and her acting skills are up to par.

But how to put it, Director Chen always felt that there was something missing, and he couldn't tell the specifics. He first put Zhou Ruxue's photos in a basket. The photos inside were all those who were selected by the director and thought they were good, and he planned to think about it later. .

After a whole morning of selection, none of them satisfied Director Chen. The ones he selected seemed acceptable, but they were only slightly acceptable. Strictly speaking, they still did not meet the director's requirements.

"That's it for now, let's go have a meal first and then continue choosing in the afternoon." The director said.

The other staff members put down their work and walked out of the conference room. The staff member responsible for playing the film and television clips glanced at the basket on the director's hand before going out. After seeing Zhou Ruxue's photo in it, he lowered his head and went out.

The director is about to get up and go out. He is very tired after sitting here all morning.

"Wait a minute -" the producer suddenly said, then handed a photo to Director Chen, "What do you think of this?"

The director didn't care at first and glanced at it inadvertently, but then he stopped standing and took the photo.

"Quickly, open her video clips and let me take a look!"

On the other side, after the staff member went out, he called Zhou Ruxue's agent.

"The director selected no more than five in one morning, and Mr. Zhou was among these five, and Director Chen spent the longest time watching Mr. Zhou's videos."

"Thank you for your hard work, cousin. If you have any difficulties later, just come to me."

After Zhou Ruxue saw her agent hanging up the phone, she couldn't wait to say, "How about it? I vaguely heard that I was selected. Is it true?"

Director Chen's dramas are almost all hits. Of course Zhou Ruxue wants to play the lead female lead in Director Chen's drama. As long as she successfully takes on this drama, she might be able to completely turn around, be directly promoted to the front line, and compete with Sheng Wan and others in the Milky Way. The distance is normal.

The agent said to Zhou Ruxue with certainty, "It is said that only five people are selected in one morning, and you are one of them. The key is that the director has spent the longest time watching your film. I think this is enough to explain many problems. Besides, Anyone who has read the novel knows that your image is the most suitable. If the director doesn’t choose you, who else can he choose?”
