China Entertainment's My Artistic Career

Chapter 44 Casting
Of course He Hua has an actor he likes, but he didn't randomly recommend it because he knew it wouldn't suit the role. For example, he likes Yan Ni, but Yan Ni has too much comedy to suit this show; he also likes Chen Shu, but Chen Shu is a bit too beautiful.

After watching the drama on the player for so long, He Hua found that not only actors without acting skills are annoying, but actors who are not suitable for the role are also very annoying, which seriously lowers the quality of the drama.

For example, the actress who played Xiaolongnu as Xiaolongbao, doesn't she look in the mirror?

There are also most costume dramas after 2020. Those actors are obviously not suitable for costumes, so why do they have to join costume dramas?
He Hua was puzzled.

So when Jiang Wei asked him to recommend actors, he refused. He could send invitations to classmates with good relationships or actors he liked to audition, but he would never interfere with the director's casting.

Unless this person has a character problem.

For the next month, He Hua followed Jiang Wei to work, drawing storyboards and interviewing actors.

Xin Baiqing really liked the script as Jiang Wei expected, and when he saw He Hua, he moved his hands together to shake He Hua's hand, and He Hua quickly raised his hands to shake it.

"Mr. He, the script is really well written, I like it so much."

After hearing this, He Hua quickly interrupted:

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I'm also in Chinese opera, you are too polite."

"Ah, really? That's really fate, your script is really good, I read it several times, Yu Zecheng"

Before the audition started, Xin Baiqing began to chat with He Hua about his understanding of this character.

He Hua also talked about his own thoughts, as well as Yu Zecheng's mentality in certain scenes.

Xin Baiqing immediately took out a small notebook from his trouser pocket and wrote it down.

This made He Hua very embarrassed:
"Brother, let's do it first, there will be other interviews for other roles later."

Xin Baiqing looked around and found that it was really not suitable, so she nodded quickly:

"Okay, I'm used to it. I often act in dramas and talk about characters anytime and anywhere. I'm sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay, you can tell at a glance, senior brother is a good actor."

The two walked up to the second floor while talking, and met a person as soon as they turned a corner. He Hua hurriedly introduced:
"Brother, this is Teacher Zu Feng, the actor who plays Li Ya in the play."

"Teacher Zu Feng, this is my senior in Chinese opera, Xin Baiqing, come to test Yu Zecheng today."

After the two shook hands, they were speechless, so He Hua had no choice but to ease the embarrassment:

"Teacher Zu Feng, I will take Teacher Xin to meet the director first."

"Okay, let's go."

After He Hua brought Xin Baiqing to meet Jiang Wei, he quickly stood aside and watched Xin Baiqing's interpretation of Yu Zecheng carefully.

(Yu Zecheng received the telegram, took out the code book to translate, and just translated three words: Cuiping sacrifice)
I saw Xin Baiqing's hands trembling slightly, flipping through his little book with both eagerness and calmness. When he turned to a specific location, his eyes were a little dazed, and his hands were at a loss.

Immediately, he closed the notebook as if nothing had happened, and sat on the stool in a daze.

After waiting for about 30 seconds, he got up, took the quilt without any physical performance, and made the bed.

Just as he was kneeling on the ground and making the bed, his waist suddenly tightened, and he retched so hard that his legs were already weak, and he fell sideways, saliva left his cheeks, and finally breathed on his back weakly.

He Hua was really shocked: what is a good actor, this is a good actor!

Even if there is nothing, it can bring you into that scene.

Although it is different from Sun Honglei's performance in the original TV series, it can also impress He Hua.

Never mind, it's him.

After He Hua waited for Xin Baiqing to calm down a bit, he applauded vigorously.

Jiang Wei also applauded, but he knew Xin Baiqing's ability, so after applauding twice, he stepped forward to support him:

"What does Yuanyuan say? Can you spare some time?"

"Well, she discussed with Director Gao, try to shoot her scenes during this time, and will come over when the time comes"

Only then did Jiang Wei show a smile:

"That's fine, that's fine."

He Hua also breathed a sigh of relief, if Zhu Yuanyuan didn't come, who would he partner with Xin Baiqing?Yao Chen is definitely not suitable, he doesn't match at all; Sui Junbo's temperament is not suitable, not aggressive enough.

To be honest, after hearing from Jiang Wei that Cuiping's candidate was Zhu Yuanyuan, He Hua never thought of letting Yao Chen compete with her.

It can be said that in the eyes of people in the circle, Zhu Yuanyuan is now a powerful faction with a full audience.

In recent years, although her works are few, she has won numerous awards. Last year, "Family with Nine Phoenixes" she starred in is still popular on David TV.

So when he heard her participating in the show, He Hua felt at ease, at least he didn't have to worry about selling it.

Then He Hua and Jiang Wei successively finalized many people:
Including Wu Gang as Lu Qiaoshan, Fan Yulin as the clumsy Ma Kui, and Cao Bingkun as Xie Ruolin.

The other characters, He Hua, are not in a hurry. Except for the hero and heroine, the actors in the original version of "Latent" are not well-known, so I send out invitations from my own side, and unless the schedule conflicts are too serious, I will basically come and see.

So just be patient.

In the next few days, as expected by He Hua, except for Wan Qiu and Liao Sanmin who have not yet been finalized, the other actors are basically the same as the original version, and they are confirmed to participate after receiving the script and invitation.

He Hua looked at Liao Sanmin's script in his hand, thought for a while, and took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket:
"Hey, where is brother?"

"Me? I'm at home. Why, do you have something to do on the phone?"

"It's okay, let's see if you're busy."

"Not busy, I'm almost dead."

"Then I have a role, do you want to try it?"

"Role? What role?"

Wang Kai, who was lying on the sofa at home watching TV, heard He Hua's words, but didn't react immediately, then jumped up as if thinking of something, and asked excitedly:
"That script of yours is going to be filmed?"

He Hua hurriedly put the phone away from his ear: "Wo Cao, why are you so loud?"

"Sorry, sorry, excited, my fault. Is it your script?"

Wang Kai apologized hastily, and then asked questions immediately.

When the holiday was approaching, someone in the school spread that He Hua had a very good notebook in his hand, as if it came from a certain teacher.

Now that He Hua asked him this again, it must be.

"But it's too soon, isn't it going to be put into production?" Wang Kai sighed in his heart.

He Hua didn't say much: "I'll send you the script, you should study it carefully, come and audition, it depends on the director."

"no problem."

Wang Kai thinks this is better, whether he can succeed depends on his own strength, and he doesn't need to owe He Hua too much favor.

After all, the two are friends, and too many interest disputes between friends will deteriorate the friendship.

Wang Kai returned to school for three days, and He Hua ran out to have a meal with him.

When they parted, He Hua reminded him:

"Go get a smart hairstyle, Liao Sanmin is a soldier, your hair is too long."

The next day, Wang Kai, who cut his hair short and exposed his forehead, was caught by Jiang Wei at a glance, and he won the role after a short audition.

And Late Autumn was also won by actress Guo Zhenni who also came from Chinese opera.

He Hua thought to himself: In addition to Liu Boxiao who plays Secretary Hong, there are five Chinese opera actors in one play, and there is no one else.

By the way, the barrage said that the actor playing Shengxiang is a wanted criminal.
Where is he going to find that wanted criminal?

Can't find anyone, isn't it causing trouble for the country?
