Chapter 485 Partner Audition

"Chinese Partners" passed the review smoothly and started auditions. The happiest person was Ning Hao.

As the crew continued to prepare for the early stages of the series, Ning Hao not only gained a sense of fulfillment, but even Xing Aina's attitude towards him improved a lot.

This made Ning Hao couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up. I am smart, otherwise I would still be living in dire straits!

After the script was approved, some general story content naturally flowed out from the General Administration.

Although there is no specific series, once the general content came out, the outside world once believed that this was a promotional video invested by New Oriental School or a business war film.

As the popularity grew, even Yu Hongmin accepted an interview with reporters and said that if director Ning Hao agreed, New Oriental could invest a sum of money for the filming of the movie.

For a time, the topic of New Oriental’s entrepreneurship aroused heated discussion among netizens.

Seeing the topic gradually spread, even Tai Chi Ma called Gu Wei and expressed his willingness to invest some money and wanted to invite Gu Wei to be the director to make a movie about his entrepreneurial experience.

"Haha, Director Gu, as long as you open your mouth, no matter how much money you spend, it doesn't matter if the movie makes a loss at the box office."

Gu Wei naturally understood Tai Chi Ma's mentality very clearly. The original "New Shaolin Temple" was just a promotional film about monks!

According to the Biography of Xiang Yu in the Book of Han, Xiang Yu once said when he missed his hometown in the East: "If you don't return to your hometown when you are rich and powerful, it's like wearing brocade clothes and walking at night."

This sentence means that if one becomes rich and powerful but does not return to his hometown, it is like walking in the dark in gorgeous clothes, and no one can see him, that is, no one in his hometown can see his success and glory.

Xiang Yu's thought expressed his deep affection for his hometown and his desire to show his wealth and glory in front of his relatives and fellow villagers.

Tai Chi Ma of today naturally has the same idea. After all, now that he has money, he cares more about his reputation!

In response to this, Gu Wei directly chose to refuse, but did not say much. After all, it is human nature to return home when one is rich and powerful.

Even Gu Wei sometimes thought privately about whether he should make a personal biography when he gets old. After all, when people are alive and their material life is satisfied, they will think about the spiritual level, right?

The film has not even started shooting yet, but it has already received so much attention, which was originally a good thing. However, this made Ning Hao a little upset. In the end, it was the company's publicity and promotion department that came out and said that this was a film with the theme of "youth nostalgia" and it was not specifically directed at any particular entrepreneurial team, but was aimed at the entire entrepreneurial group.

"The Wandering Earth" is coming to an end, but the special effects will still take a long time. I heard that Ning Hao is conducting large-scale auditions.

When Gu Wei returned to the company, he went to the conference room on the second floor to take a look. Wow, there were so many people coming!
Come to think of it, with a cost of 70 million and the participation of domestic commercial director Ning Hao, one of the male protagonists revealed so far is still Deng Chao. If not many people come, it won't be the entertainment industry.
“These are the ones that Director Ning screened once and sent out audition invitations.

Some actors have worked with Director Ning before and are very familiar with each other, so they don’t need to go through the interview process.”

Chen Guofu introduced on the side that he is the producer of this movie. If nothing unexpected happens, Chen Guofu will be the producer of most of the movies produced by Xingchen Films in the future. After all, he has rich experience!

At this time, many people noticed Gu Wei and Chen Guofu in the distance, and they all became a little nervous.

With just one glance, Gu Wei knew what was going on.

He had no impression of these people in the conference room, so he had to come for an audition. If he didn't show his face more often, he would be remembered by the big directors.

While the two were talking, a bold actor stood up and greeted them: "Director Gu, hello, I am actor Du Juan."

"Hello, Director Gu. I'm actor Wang Chuanjun."

"Hello, Director Gu. I'm actor Sun Yizhou."

Wow, the main creators of "Love Apartment" are almost together.

"Hello, Love 3 is well made and Yifei likes watching it very much." Gu Wei said with a smile.

"Haha, thank you Director Gu for the compliment."

"Director Gu, you're too polite. Ghost Blows Out the Light is still the most popular one right now..."

After chatting with a few people for a few words, Gu Wei then walked towards Tang Yan who was not far away.

There has been a lot of buzz online about the plagiarism incident of "Love 3", but this has little to do with the actors. After all, the director has the final say on how TV series and movies are filmed, and there is no need to put the blame on the main creators.

Even if some actors say one thing to your face and another behind your back, that's just how the entertainment industry is!
Looking at Tang Yan who was suffering from cyber bullying in front of him, Gu Wei had a brief chat with him. As for words of comfort, he would say nothing. As an actor, if you can't stand being criticized by others, you'd better change your career as soon as possible.

Regarding Tang Yan's audition for the female lead, Gu Wei nodded and gave her a few words of encouragement, but he didn't take care of her secretly. The two had never worked together before, and their only common point was Hu Ge.

Later, Gu Wei went to the third floor and saw engineers working non-stop, with hundreds of computers gathered together. The scene was truly stunning. When he was in Hollywood before, he saw the huge scale of Warner's special effects department, and Gu Wei envied it for a long time. But in less than ten years, Xingchen Films Company had become as big as the other company.

.........

After "The Four" was successfully released, although the box office was good, Wang Changtian still did not change his mind and decided to replace the female lead, even if the shooting of the second part needed to be postponed.

As the heroine of this movie, Yang Mi has had both an easy and difficult time recently.

It's a relief because there is finally a representative work with high box office, especially since "Sad Fairy Tale" flopped at the box office. When comparing the two, the honeys have something to say.

"Although everyone became famous thanks to the Chinese Paladin series, there are still differences between people. Some people should have a little self-awareness. You can't just go on the big screen. Now the results prove that you should just go back to filming TV series."

Regardless of how Liu Shishi felt at the time, her fans couldn't stand it and responded crazily online.

"Are you so proud of yourself after making a movie? Have you forgotten that you were almost banned?"

"Oh, it's just a moment of luck. I heard that the second part of "The Four" has confirmed a new female lead? It's time!"

The netizens’ words were like a needle piercing Yang Mi’s heart, not to mention that they were facts.

In a private villa in Shanghai.

Looking at the comments and posts online, Yang Mi couldn't help but clench her fists. Even though her nails dug into her flesh, she still couldn't extinguish the anger in her heart.

"Mimi, why don't we just leave Xingmei and set up our own studio." Zeng Jia looked at Yang Mi and said.

"I contacted Xingchen Film and Television Company several times, but they didn't think highly of us and never agreed to let us join."

Zeng Jia continued to talk. After being rejected several times in a row, she gave up hope. She even secretly guessed in her heart that maybe Yang Mi’s fame and status were not enough and the other party simply looked down on her.

To be honest, if Gu Wei knew what the other party was thinking, he would probably have something to say.

On the contrary, it is precisely because Yang Mi is quite popular now that Gu Wei has no intention of recruiting her into the company.

Firstly, the company currently has Tong Liya, Zhao Liying and Wan Qian, plus Su Chang. The types of these people are not much different, and their acting styles are in the same direction. If Yang Mi suddenly comes in, judging from her career ambition, she will definitely occupy a considerable part of the resources.

Secondly, Tong Liya and others joined the company before they became famous and were cultivated bit by bit by the company, whereas Yang Mi was already a very popular young actress before joining the company, and their loyalty is unmatched.

Yang Mi did not respond, but shook her head, "I am a little confused and hesitant."

"At this point, don't you understand that it is better to rely on yourself than on others?

I finally understand that all agencies are vampires, eager to squeeze all the value out of actors and then abandon them mercilessly."

Zeng Jia knew Yang Mi's mentality at the moment and kept persuading her, "According to my idea, the two of us will first set up our own studios, then expand and strengthen them, set up a company, and finally become our own capital. Mimi, don't you still believe me?"

“Look at the current entertainment industry, capital is king. Even Tang Yan has opened a studio and started to get involved in investment, production, and artist management.

Look at Huang Xiaoming, Li Binbin, Fan Binbin, Zhou Xun, etc., they have all left Huayi one after another, but what did Huayi say? There was no bad words, no ban or anything like that. "

Every word Zeng Jia said was like a hammer hitting Yang Mi's heart.

"Mimi, remember when we were on the set of Search, Chen Hong almost banned us with just one sentence, but when Fan Binbin and Li Binbin were acting together, did the director mention banning us?"

It has to be said that Zeng Jia understood Yang Mi too well and grasped her psychology. With just a few words of encouragement, she basically convinced her.

After a few minutes, Yang Mi suddenly looked up and smiled, "You're right, Jia Jia, if we join forces, we can also become the capital of the circle."

Seeing Yang Mi's smile, Zeng Jia instantly understood that the person in front of her had not changed, and was still the ambitious and motivated Yang Mi.

"Yes, I have already negotiated with Director Guo about his film Tiny Times. I will take this opportunity to leave Star Media."

"I'll tell my boss that the reaction contract is about to expire."
