Chapter 392 Auditions

Inside the office, Jiang Heng held the list and frowned.

Because whether it is Beijing Film Academy or Central Academy of Drama, there are very few male actors from the 10th grade acting department who have become famous.

Li Xian and Zhang Yishan were considered to have developed better, especially the former, who became an overnight sensation and became famous all over the world.

Zhang Yishan became famous with "Yu Zui", but his career declined due to "The Deer and the Cauldron".

But it seems a bit inappropriate to let these two play Xiao Yan.

As for the Shanghai Theatre Academy, there are no suitable male actors at level 10.

Putting down the list, Jiang Heng pressed his brows, considering whether to hold an open audition or choose from older and famous male actors.

At this time, Cui Zhenzhen came in and said that Yang Mi was here.

Da Mimi's development has been relatively smooth in the past two years.

He has produced one hit TV series after another, and has also starred in several small and medium-budget films.

Unfortunately, she has always been upset about not being able to star in Jiang Heng's special effects blockbusters. From time to time, she would go back to the company, sit in Jiang Heng's office for a while, chat, and see if she had any chance.

"What's wrong, Director Jiang!"

Seeing Jiang Heng's unhappy expression, Yang Mi was shocked and couldn't help muttering in her heart, it can't be because of me!

Jiang Heng stood up and smiled, "It's okay, just a small problem! Zhenzhen, pour her a cup of coffee!"

Upon hearing this, Cui Zhenzhen went out to make some hand-ground coffee, while Jiang Heng asked about Yang Mi's recent situation.

"Well, it's okay. I have a movie contract recently, but I haven't decided whether to accept it or not!"

Jiang Heng smiled and sat down on the sofa. "Tell me, what movie is it that makes you so confused?"

"Do you know Guo Jinming?"

"I've heard that he's quite popular among young people!"

"Well, he wants to adapt his work Tiny Times into a movie and put it on the big screen. He wants to invite me to play the female lead in the movie. I haven't decided yet whether I want to participate!"

Jiang Heng smiled, "Why not?"

When "Tiny Times" was first released, its reputation collapsed and it was criticized for being exaggerated, ostentatious, and pretentious.

However, looking back after ten or eight years, it seems that the rich are so wealthy and willful!

Guo Jinming once said in an interview program that when he was in college, his classmates showed off their wealth in various ways. If you came from a small place and your family didn't have much money, they would really look down on you.

So although Jiang Heng didn’t really like “Tiny Times”, he didn’t have such a strong dislike for it.

It is also positive for Yang Mi's career development, so there is no reason to refuse.

But Yang Mi was really disappointed with Jiang Heng's answer.

Because this almost proves that Jiang Heng never considered her as the heroine of his new film!
What Yang Mi wanted to hear was, "No, I'm already planning to let you play Xiao Xun'er!"

But the reality is that Jiang Heng suggested that she star in "Tiny Times", which is quite heartbreaking.

For a moment, Yang Mi even wanted to ask if she would never have the chance to play the leading role in your new film. If that were the case, she would have to leave.

"Thank you!"

Just as they were silent, Cui Zhenzhen came in with two cups of coffee.

Yang Mi took it, took a sip, and looked at the scenery outside the window again.

Suddenly he asked, "This time, is it Jing Tian?"

Jiang Heng smiled, "Why do you say that?"

"It feels like the heroine of new movies in the past two years is either her or Sissi!"

Jiang Heng felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. Is it so obvious?

"Not really. This time I want to find someone younger, both male and female!"

"Younger ones? Are we going to have auditions again?"

Jiang Heng nodded slightly. It seemed that this was the only way to do it so far.

Yang Mi smiled awkwardly, "They are lucky. Once they are selected, they will be in great luck and can directly star in your work!"

"I guess so!" Jiang Heng was not modest. Yang Mi became more disappointed after hearing this, and she had already decided to leave.

But even if he left iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video to start his own business, he would not dare to offend Jiang Heng.

He might even look to Jiang Heng for support if he encountered problems that were difficult to solve, but he didn't dare to leave immediately and give Jiang Heng a hard time.

After chatting with him for a while, Yang Mi said goodbye and left when she saw that Jiang Heng had other things to do.

After walking out of iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video and returning to the car, I felt sad.

Even if I have thousands of words to say, I don’t know who to tell them to.

After thinking for a while, he finally called Tang Yan.

The two are in similar situations. In the special effects blockbusters shot by Jiang Heng in recent years, they both played supporting roles and extras.

However, Tang Yan is luckier than her, as he has at least starred in "Splitting the Mountain to Save Mother".

"Hey, Tangtang, where are you?"

"In the World Trade Center? What's the matter?"

"Wait for me, come over immediately!"

"Oh, then call me when you get there!"

Tang Yan is not that career-oriented and does not take on that many film contracts. He sets aside a lot of time every year to spend time with his parents or rest.

It's not even the end of the first month of the year yet, so it's not yet time for her to work!

After a while, Yang Mi finally showed up. Both of them wore sunglasses and started chatting while walking around.

Yang Mi directly said that Jiang Heng was planning to hold an open audition for the leading actress this time. Tang Yan smiled sweetly upon hearing this, "Another open audition, it looks like we're going to have another beautiful sister!"

Yang Mi rolled her eyes in anger after hearing this. What the hell is this talking about? It sounds so weird!

Tang Yan said: "Am I wrong?"

Yang Mi said unhappily: "Yes, the question is, don't you have any ideas?"

Tang Yan said: "What ideas do I have? Director Jiang will call me if there is a suitable role!"

Yang Mi was so angry when she heard this, "All the good roles are reserved for Jing Tian and Xixi. If you keep waiting like this, you won't get them even after a hundred years!"

Tang Yan said: "I know, but it's normal!"

Yang Mi was too tired to complain and even began to doubt whether it was a mistake for her to come to her.

Fortunately, after walking around for a while, the two found a more private restaurant and had a good chat.

Before parting, Yang Mi held Tang Yan's hand and said with some sadness: "I feel like I won't have the chance to star in his film. I really envy you!"

Tang Yan said: "What is there to be envious of? I don't think I will have the chance in the future. It's still the same!"

"It's different. At least you've acted in it!"

Tang Yan's eyes wandered for a moment, as if he was thinking about the past. At that time, neither Liu Yifei nor Jing Tian knew Jiang Heng!

He sighed and said, "It's been many years!"

After dinner, Yang Mi took a car directly to the airport, flew to Shanghai, and signed the contract for "Tiny Times".

Tang Yan returned to his mansion in Beijing. When talking about what happened today, Tang's mother also felt regretful.

Jiang Heng finally decided to adopt the method of open auditions, conducting them one place at a time and stopping when a suitable place was found.

Unexpectedly, the right actress, Guli Nazha, was chosen just after the event was held in Beijing.

The young lady was preparing for the exam and happened to be in Beijing, so she took the exam with the mentality of giving it a try.

The question is that Guli Nazha’s appearance is really outstanding. When she took part in the art examination, she was known as "the most beautiful art candidate of Beijing Film Academy", which caused a sensation on the entire Internet.

She attended the audition without makeup, which was already very stunning.

Put on the costumes prepared in advance by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video, and you will be the most stunning among all the girls.

Jiang Heng didn't play those tricks and made the decision on the spot.
