I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Youyou went out to film.

As for Su Zhi, since the new variety show on Tomato TV is also about to start filming, she is very busy as a mentor during this period.

On the contrary, Xu Kong himself, while waiting for "The Warlords" to officially start filming, suddenly felt a little at a loss as to what to do.

As for overseas, the four new dramas were all put into formal filming at almost the same time.

The casting issue was resolved smoothly.

In addition to choosing local actors opposite overseas.

It was still the same method as before, mixed with a lot of newcomers that Feng Ge planned to train.

Of course, language issues do require a lot of attention.

At present, in order to develop overseas, Fengge Company has established basic language classes.

We invited quite a few language teachers from various professions.

Kimchi, neon is the key.

For example, in Europe and the United States, there are many corporate artists who are good at English.

The difficulty is also the easiest.

Of course, among these, the Japanese film "Hanzawa Naoki" actually had low willingness among artists to perform.

There is no way. Although Japanese dramas have always been very stable, as an overseas market, it is indeed the least dynamic among several markets.

But in fact, as the director of "Hanzawa Naoki", Lin Kun had very high expectations after reading the script.

He feels that such a drama has a high chance of becoming a big hit in Japan.

Not only that, even if it is broadcast normally in the country later, the effect is estimated to be not bad.

It’s just that the choice of actors is indeed a big problem.

The original plan was, of course, to choose a senior local actor to play the male lead.

But the plot of the whole drama is that of a male-centered drama.

Lin Kun felt that if it was Fengge’s own artist, this might be a good opportunity.

The amazing thing is that we can produce an artist who is extremely popular in Japan.

Of course, the best choice is to select a Japanese actor who already has popularity and fame to perform.

But doesn’t this feel like one of the biggest benefits of the entire show is lost?
It has to be said that Lin Kun may not have joined Fengge for very long.

But I am grateful to the company, or simply to director Xu Kong.

So it's natural that we will consider how to maximize our benefits.

In fact, he personally thinks that the most suitable candidate is our Director Xu.

He is handsome enough and there is no need to worry about his acting skills.

The most important thing is that even if Xu Kong is just an actor, not a director.
But when he saw the other person on the set, Lin Kun would feel more at ease.

It’s just that Xu Kong really doesn’t have that much schedule right now, and he also knows that Xu Kong doesn’t have the ability to clone himself.

It was quite surprising that we went to shoot Yao Guanyu’s new movie this time.

After finishing the filming of this movie, Xu Kong will most likely continue to be his own director.

So it can only be another player.

But just in terms of language issues, there are currently few Fengges that meet the requirements.

Fortunately, after discussing the idea with Xu Kong, Xu Kong said that there was no corresponding schedule requirement. If one really wanted an actor under Fengge to play the male lead, it would not be completely impossible.

It was not until later that Xu Kong learned that Lin Kun had confirmed the actor to play the male lead, Naoki Hanzawa, that he was also a little surprised.

It turned out to be Xiang Tianlei.

That is the person who has always been overambitious and seems to be completely unable to keep up with others in the company.

At that time, Xu Kong saw that the other party seemed to be really determined to change, and the role was also suitable, so he asked him to make a guest appearance in "Infernal Affairs".

It had been a few months since we last met, and when we met again, he had changed so much that even Xu Kong was surprised.

Needless to say, Xiang Tianlei himself has even lost a lot of weight.

The whole person's mental state seems to be completely different from before.

"Director Xu, Tianlei really put a lot of effort into this role."

“Although he has only learned Neon language for a short time, his progress is really huge. I feel that when we start shooting later, we can almost shoot it in its original form.”

"Of course, if that doesn't work, you can use dubbing later."

"But he is indeed the only suitable one among the actors who have auditioned in the entire company."

Lin Kun helped to speak well of him.

He seemed to be aware that Xiang Tianlei had not left a very good impression on Xu Kong before.

"Director Xu, please give me a chance."

Although Xiang Tianlei said this in his heart, he didn't dare to say it out loud.

He was just waiting anxiously for Xu Kong to speak.

He picked out a few scenes that Xu Kong thought were more important and asked the other party to improvise on the spot.

Although he is still not perfect, it has to be said that Xiang Tianlei is indeed a talented actor.

It was just a bit of a slack before.

The impression given by working hard and seriously is completely different.

"Let's just leave it like this for now, and shoot for a while to see the results."

Xu Kong didn't say anything definite.

In fact, he himself is more inclined to choose actors from Japan.

As for Fengge’s actors, if they plan to develop towards that market.

You can temporarily play some supporting roles to gain some experience.

At least the biggest problem of language has been solved. If it is suitable in the future, it will not be too late to develop in that direction.

But even if you take bigger steps, it doesn’t really matter.

As long as the quality of the entire film remains within a controllable range, these are just minor issues.

In fact, on the other hand, the other three dramas for the remaining overseas markets have officially entered the filming stage.

"Hanzawa Naoki" is the slowest one.

There's no way, the Neon Market is indeed a little special.

Before, except Xu Kong, there would probably be no domestic company that would consider developing in that direction.

But in Xu Kong's opinion, Neon actually has more potential.

Once you penetrate the market, it is easier to gain a foothold than in the Korean, European and American markets.

Because Japan is indeed more willing to cooperate with some overseas companies.

The market should also be more inclusive.

After finishing this last bit of matter, Xu Kong started strolling around Fengge.

In fact, the current Feng Ge even gives people a more energetic feeling than when Xu Kong first came.

Because Zhu Changyun took away most of the company's veteran stars and directors.

Now the average age of the entire company, artists and staff is less than 30 years old.

The age of a company's employees sometimes reflects the entire company's image.

If it weren't for its smooth development, some people would believe that Fengge is a new company that is just starting to get on the upswing.

From this point of view, Xu Kong sometimes thought that he should thank Zhu Changyun a little.

If it wasn't for the other party, even if he took over Feng Ge, there might be various obstacles in the process, involving various interest distribution processes.

It is not so easy for the entire company to overturn the previous model and take a relatively new route.

It is difficult for the atmosphere within the company to be as vibrant as it is today.

"We signed about 40 to 50 new people this month."

"Our company's attractiveness is now almost the leading position in the whole country."

"For traditional schools like Beijing Film and Television Academy, if we want to sign fresh graduates majoring in acting, screenwriting, or directing, other companies will not be able to compete with us."

In Zhu Yu's office, as the manager of the artist department, she couldn't help but show off.

Although Xu Kong had some ideas and suggestions, Zhu Yu was almost entirely responsible for achieving the current level.

Before, she regarded Feng Ge and her own job as a means for her to make money and survive in the city of Beijing.

But since Xu Kong became the boss, although Zhu Yu never said it, her ideas have indeed changed to a certain extent.

I really started to treat Fengge as my own career.

"Sister Yu, you have worked so hard. I must thank you and reward you!"

Of course Xu Kong spoke without any hesitation.

Zhu Yu was a little flustered and quickly stopped Xu Kong who was approaching.

"and many more!"

“This is my job.”

Of course she knew what Xu Kong meant by thanks and reward.

In fact, the salary Xu Kong offered him was almost the highest in the industry.

At the same time, they are also very generous with bonuses.

For Zhu Yu now, she is already very satisfied with her treatment.

The main thing is that she and her daughter Zhu Min don’t actually need that much money.

In addition to this, more importantly, in addition to these, Xu Kong will also give additional "rewards".

Although Xu Kong was talking about rewards, Zhu Yu always felt a little unconvinced.

This guy deliberately made up excuses like this, but in fact he suffered the most.

"Hmm~"

Before she could continue thinking, she even started to complain.

At this time, Xu Kong had already pressed down her hand that was trying to push him away, and then kissed her.

Zhu Yu resisted.

In fact, it is not a real resistance.

It was just a symbolic struggle.

How could our Sister Yu not be used to Xu Kong's sudden attacks or spur of the moment actions?

It's just that he is unwilling to admit it completely verbally and on the surface.

After a while, Xu Kong still maintained the posture of holding her hands above her head with one hand, but he began to stare at her seriously.

This made Zhu Yu blush.

"What are you doing?!!"

Zhu Yu asked.

As for Xu Kong, he gave his answer without hesitation.

"Dry."

Xu Kong really was thinking that it would be nice to have some free time.

But looking at the current situation, such leisurely days will not last long.

The preparations for filming of "The Warlords" are almost complete, and the official start of the subsequent filming is estimated to be within this month.
