Chapter 167 All-Star Lineup

Jiang Heng has met quite a few beautiful girls recently.

After instructing Yu Yang to find Zhao Liying, he called Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Gao Yuanyuan and Huang Xiaoming together the next day and had a hotpot meal.

Several beautiful girls gathered together, and they all looked harmonious.

As for Huang Xiaoming, his compliments were all different. He praised Jiang Heng in different ways without caring about his image in the eyes of the beauties.

After all, opportunities are rare. Not to mention the special effects blockbusters that Jiang Heng shoots every year, the TV series produced by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures alone are the top resources in the industry.

What's more, the news that Jiang Heng is going to produce a fantasy TV series has already spread throughout the entertainment industry.

It would be foolish not to seize this opportunity today.

The topic naturally turned to the Xianxia drama that was being prepared. Huang Xiaoming asked, "Director Jiang, is this a completely new and original plot?"

Jiang Heng took a bite of the hot pot meat, put down his chopsticks and said, "Yes, it's brand new, something that everyone has never seen before. The characteristic is that there are many beautiful female characters!"

Huang Xiaoming said: "Speaking of pretty girls, Zhao......!"

Jiang Heng waved his hand, signaling him not to say anything more, "For those female roles, I already have some rough candidates in mind, so I don't need you to recommend them!"

Huang Xiaoming couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he heard this. He also heard from others that Director Jiang didn't have a good impression of the "Three Beauties of Return of the Condor Heroes".

I had always thought it was a rumor. After all, Jiang Heng had never met those people, so how could he be prejudiced against them?

Now that I see it, it might actually be true!
It would be terrible if I missed out on the role because of recommending Zhao.

Huang Xiaoming's face changed and he looked at Liu Yifei for help.

The two had just worked together on "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and were considered good friends.

Besides, Liu Yifei didn't understand why Jiang Heng didn't like the "Three Beauties of Return of the Pearls". "Uncle is too imposing. Look how scared Brother Xiao Ming is!"

Huang Xiaoming took the opportunity to make a pitiful and confused expression.

Jiang Heng smiled and comforted, "Don't think too much. I've been filming for so many years and I'm used to being in charge of everything. Do you know what the basic premise of my cooperation with Columbia and China Film is?"

Several people at the table looked over curiously, waiting for the answer.

"Everything related to the filming is decided by me. If you can't accept it, you can quit!"

After hearing this, the girls had stars in their eyes. They had never seen such a domineering person in real life.

Liu Yifei felt that her godfather Chen Jinfei was quite domineering, but he really had no temper at all in front of Jiang Heng.

As for Huang Xiaoming, he looked at Jiang Heng with the eyes of an idol and thought that this domineering style was really handsome.

He will also follow this route in the future. If he doesn’t have that kind of talent in real life, he can just enjoy it in the play!

In an instant, Huang Xiaoming became determined to play the role of "boss" more often in the future, and complimented Jiang Heng a few more times.

Jiang Heng put down his chopsticks, glanced at Huang Xiaoming and said, "By the way, you are not interested in participating in my new play, and the role has not been determined yet!"

"Yes, Director Jiang, I couldn't ask for more!"

Huang Xiaoming was excited. Although he was one of the most popular young actors in the country at the moment, he shouldn't play a supporting role in a TV drama.

But if it is Jiang Heng’s work, it’s a different story.

Even if I can't get the leading role, with this cooperation opportunity, it will be easier to fight for other resources in the future.

Seeing this, Jiang Heng smiled and nodded, and just said the word "good"!

He raised his glass to signal, and Huang Xiaoming also raised his glass, and they drank a glass of wine together.

Huang Xiaoming has some acting skills, especially his performance in "Chinese Partners", which was really amazing. He also won the Best Actor (Outstanding Actor) Award at the Golden Rooster, Huabiao and Hundred Flowers Awards for his role as Cheng Dongqing.

It’s just that this person has a special preference for “dominant” roles. After starring in a good movie, he rewards himself with a “dominant CEO” drama.

Of course, this is a personal preference, and Jiang Heng has no right to say anything. As long as he can perform well in "The Night Watchmen of Dafeng", it will be fine.

As for the final role, it will be decided after the audition.

The next day, Han Sanping brought a bunch of scripts to iQiyi and Youku for Jiang Heng to choose from.

The Shanghai Animation Film Studio also sent someone to deliver the finished footage of Kung Fu Panda to ask Jiang Heng for his opinion.

Yu Yang kept asking people to send back photos, but every one of them looked cute, but none of them was Zhao Liying.

In addition, the incident caused a lot of uproar in Langfang, which made him think of withdrawing his troops.

Fortunately, on this day, I finally saw Zhao Liying among the photos that had just been sent to me.

"Okay, come back, and remember to bring that girl named Zhao Liying back to the company!"

Yu Yang, who was in Langfang, was stunned at first, then he was ecstatic, but he won’t go into details.

But the next day, Jiang Heng saw Zhao Liying in the office, dressed simply and looking timid.

"Have you ever thought about becoming an actor?"

Zhao Liying shook her head. "I'm from LF City Electronic Information Engineering College, majoring in flight attendant. I wanted to be a flight attendant, but now I'm working as a salesperson in a pipeline anti-corrosion company!"

Jiang Heng smiled and didn't ask her why she didn't want to be a flight attendant.

The words "Why not eat meat porridge" are meaningless when they are said.

"I went to Langfang before and saw you on the street by chance. I thought you were suitable to be an actor. I was about to shoot a big drama, so I sent someone to look for you. I didn't expect to find you!"

Zhao Liying said: "Director Jiang is so amazing. Things that are extremely difficult for others are easy for you!"

"Well, how about signing a contract with my company and playing a supporting role first?"

Zhao Liying nodded hurriedly, "Director Jiang, please make the arrangements as you see fit. I never thought I could be an actor. When I came out, my mother told me that it was fine as long as I had lines to say. One must not be too greedy!"

Jiang Heng laughed, "There must be a line. OK, let's go sign the contract!"

"Hey, thank you Director Jiang!" Zhao Liying said, bent down, bowed, turned and left.

In addition to the above-mentioned people, Jiang Heng also asked people to contact Wang Yu and Qin Lan to participate in the audition of "Dafeng Night Watchmen".

Chen Kun was invited to play the role of Xu Xinnian, and this time he was not rejected.

It was okay that he had rejected the role of Yang Guo in The Return of the Condor Heroes before, but that time it was Li Xiaoping who made the invitation. Although it was a drama produced by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures, it was different from the invitation from Jiang Heng.

Nowadays, it is said in the film and television circles that Jiang Heng has a kind appearance but a domineering personality, and Chen Kun is unwilling to take the risk of offending Jiang Heng.

At this point, the main characters for the film "Dafeng Night Patrol" have been almost found, with only Xu Qian'an being the one that has not been finalized.

At present, Huang Xiaoming is only considered as one of the alternative candidates, and Jiang Heng is considering whether to choose Feng Shaofeng.

This guy is handsome and has a cynical temperament. He debuted in the entertainment industry as early as 98.

But after seeing Zhao Liying, he decided to give up and finally decided on Huang Xiaoming.

After the Spring Festival, Jiang Heng finally announced that iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures will produce a fantasy drama "The Night Watchmen of Dafeng" supervised by him.
