Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 170 Akutagawa Prize Finalist

Chen Linfeng gave him a list and asked him to invite actors for auditions according to the list. These were the actors who had performed well in "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" and "The New Legend" in their previous lives.

That’s right, he started to integrate again, just like in “The Tang Empire”.

Hu Tiehua (Fan Shaohuang), Su Rongrong (Hu Jing), Li Hongxiu (Sun Feifei), Wuhua (Cui Peng), Song Tianer (little Liu Jia), Xue Yiren (Liu Dekai).

Others did not give their opinions.

For example, in "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", the actress Choo Ja-hyun played the extremely outstanding role of Stone Guanyin.

It is even a question whether he will come for the audition, and since the script will not be revised, even if this actor comes, he will definitely be replaced by another role.

Some of the important female characters in the new biography are not that pretty, so we must definitely choose new ones.

Chen Shantong didn't find his son's behavior strange. From "The Tang Empire", we can see that Xiaofeng has his own way of selecting people.

What's more, these people are just invited to audition, not directly assigned roles, so there is certainly no problem with that.

Shi Xiaolong has been paying close attention to the situation of his own drama. When he saw that it was time to choose roles, he directly requested that he also want to have a hand in it.

"Aren't you going to be in Soldier Assault next year? How can you find the time?"

"I can play a role that doesn't have that many scenes."

Chen Linfeng thought about it and found a role called "Sun Bukong" for Shi Xiaolong in the unit drama "Legend of Peach Blossom".

"What kind of role is this?"

"The assassin Sun Bukong, known in the book as 'Seventy-one Transformations', is full of tricks and is the top master of the Lower Five Sects, and is good at making mechanical devices."

"Oh," Shi Xiaolong nodded, not quite understanding, and decided to go back and read the novel to find out more.

"This character appears relatively late, and doesn't have too many scenes. You can go shoot Soldier Assault first, and then find an opportunity to take a leave."

Shi Xiaolong had no objection. He just wanted to continue to join in the fun of the martial arts drama.

After all, I heard that there may not be so many opportunities to shoot again in the future.

Time flies and New Year's Day is coming soon.

Time came to 2006.

The online "Mantou" incident broke out as expected, and it is considered the biggest melon in recent times.

This extremely ambitious movie ended up being a complete mess.

Not only did its reputation in China collapse, but it also had a certain impact on Chinese films going overseas.

Since this movie, Hollywood's interest in Chinese films has dropped significantly.

However, he has not yet entered the big screen, so this matter has little to do with him. It will not be too late to consider it later.

Recently, the most important thing for Chen Linfeng is the eighteenth birthday of his two brothers.

Neither he nor Shi Xiaolong had any intention of making a big deal about it. They just planned to have a good meal at home with their family.

A wave of discussion has already been sparked online.

"Xiao Chen has been famous for so many years, and he has finally come of age."

"At least my parents don't have to keep using this person as an example, saying that he did so many things at such a young age."

Netizens felt the same way, and it seemed that they had all heard similar words.

"By the way, Xiao Chen's appearance has changed a lot in the past few years. I feel like he wasn't this handsome when he was a kid?"

"Indeed, just look at the people on the forum who are going crazy over his recent photos and you'll see."

"This is embarrassing for some people. We are all brothers, why do you have the only one with a genetic mutation?"

"My little dragon looks cute, but I'm not bad either."

In addition to this sudden change of topic, there were also many people who wished him a happy birthday.

And on January 1th, a wealthy fan came from nowhere and gave him a big favor.

We bought a huge LED screen advertisement directly at the Shenhai Lujiazui Zhendan Building to celebrate his 18th birthday.

At the same time, the big advertising screen in the center of Times Square in New York was also celebrating his birthday. Of course, this was a marketing campaign by Disney Publishing. Since Chen Linfeng became the company's most popular author, this kind of media advertising has been going on.

Just like this, Shi Xiaolong felt a little embarrassed.

So Chen Linfeng secretly informed Sister Mei and asked her to buy birthday greetings for the same day at the same location in Lujiazui.

The media started reporting on Chen Linfeng and Shi Xiaolong’s birthdays a week ago.

It not only reports on the achievements of the two people from childhood to adulthood, but also imagines their future and looks forward to what higher developments they will have in the future.

Directly loaned the two of them the status of international superstars.

The day before her birthday, Liu Qianqian took Chen Linfeng directly to the horse farm. The birthday gift she prepared was a beautiful white horse.

"I remember you said you liked the feeling of riding a horse, so I bought one and kept it here. I have already paid the annual fee."

This gift is pretty good. I can use it directly when filming ancient dramas in the future. Chen Linfeng is quite satisfied with it.

Liu Qianqian also bought herself a red horse. The two of them got familiar with their horses together at the stable that day and agreed to go horseback riding together in the future.

After his birthday, he was preparing to attend the audition for "The Legend of Chor Liu-xiang" when Sister Mei told him that his novel "She" was successfully shortlisted for the Neon Akutagawa Prize.

"Really shortlisted?" Chen Linfeng asked in surprise.

"Yes, Noma said it himself on the phone."

Kodansha is still awesome. It is said that they dominate most of the literary awards in Japan, and it is true.

Chen Linfeng took note of this matter. The Akutagawa Prize is awarded twice a year. The first half of the year's selection and award ceremony will be in February, and he will have to go to the scene in person.

Sister Mei asked him to come not only to inform him of this matter, but also to discuss matters related to the establishment of the studio, otherwise she could have just talked about it over the phone.

Chen Linfeng is now an adult and can finally apply to start his own company, so he asked Sister Mei to help him run the programs and open two studios first.

One of the main business operations is responsible for handling the copyright of Chen Linfeng’s various works, and its name is Qilin Copyright Operation Studio.

The other one is affiliated with the Dragon and Kirin Company, and is mainly responsible for his affairs in the film and television industry. Its name is Kirin Film and Television Culture Studio.

Currently, both companies are recruiting people, and the work of driver Luo Lin and assistant Xiao Chang has been transferred to Linfeng Studio.

Sister Mei is mainly responsible for the preliminary screening of personnel, and the specific candidates will be determined by Chen Linfeng.

But there is no rush, just take your time.

The audition scene for "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang".

Chen Linfeng actually saw Liu Qianqian.

"Why are you here too?"

"I'll give it a try too. Is there a role for me to be in charge of?"

Chen Linfeng reminded, "There is no real heroine in this drama, only the heroine of the unit drama, who doesn't have many scenes."

Liu Qianqian didn't care, "It's okay, I came here just because I heard about this."

She expressed her thoughts, "I am also considering what you told me last time about continuing to film TV series, but the previous dramas were all costume dramas.

I want to switch to modern drama, but there is no good opportunity at the moment, so I will find a role as a transition. "

Chen Linfeng touched his chin and said, "Your idea is good. You should try different types of roles."

He simply told Liu Xixi the result directly.

This kind of relationship is good, and their acting skills are guaranteed to a certain extent. In other words, even if they are not in good condition at the moment, we can let them polish their scenes without considering other things.

You can decide the role directly.

Chen Linfeng thought for a moment and said, "You can just play Zhang Jiejie. This character is the heroine of "Legend of Peach Blossom". She is a bit evil and weird, but also cheerful and lively. It is quite different from your previous roles."

Then he instructed, "Remember to read the original novel more when you go back to get a feel for it."

Liu Qianqian nodded, not feeling embarrassed. With her current status in the domestic TV drama industry, it would not be difficult for her to secure the leading role in a unit drama.

She had already been cast in a role, so she still had to go through the audition process. However, she was not in a hurry to go back, but instead followed Chen Linfeng around to look around.
