China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 182 Investing in the second audition of "Leader" (please subscribe!)

Invitations were also sent to Hongxingwu. The director team probably wanted to invite all the stars who had sung "Beijing Welcomes You" to the Spring Festival Gala stage and do it again live.

Because the upcoming 08 is an Olympic year, "Beijing Welcomes You" as the Olympic song, appearing on the Spring Festival Gala is not only popular, but also a political mission.

As the songwriter of this song, Chen Dong also sings the opening vocals. There is no reason to refuse, so naturally he should cooperate.

However, the director team wanted him to prepare a program alone, but he refused.

Again, his job is to be a director, not an artist.

……

"Soldier Assault" failed to attract investment at the beginning, and now it has exploded in popularity after its broadcast. It can be said that it has exceeded many people's expectations.

Even the director Kang Honglei himself.

Now, he plans to strike while the iron is hot and launch his next TV series project.

The news spread like wildfire, and many investors immediately came to seek cooperation.

Among them are large companies such as Huayi, Chengtian and Bona.

But Kang Honglei did not accept the olive branch they offered.

Instead, he came to Dongcheng Pictures alone and was sitting in the reception room drinking tea with Chen Dong.

""My Captain, My Group""

This is the next TV series project book brought by Kang Honglei. Chen Dong picked it up and flipped through it from beginning to end without politeness. Then he raised his head to meet Kang Honglei's expectant eyes. He nodded with a smile and asked, "This time it's not bad. How much investment?”

"The preliminary estimate is 3000 million. My old employer Bayi Factory plans to invest 1000 million this time, which means there is still a shortfall of 2000 million."

Chen Dong summed it up in his mind and felt that the amount Kang Honglei reported was not high. With the foundation of previous cooperation, he did not hesitate and said directly: "Okay, the remaining 2000 million is Dongcheng's investment."

"Haha, Director Chen is generous."

Chen Dong left it to Zhong Lifang to handle the subsequent tedious signing and other work.

As for the characters, Kang Honglei meant that he wanted to directly use the group of people from "Soldier Assault".

Chen Dong had no objections to this.

……

Today is Saturday.

Chen Dong’s new movie is scheduled for the second audition day.

It was only early in the morning, and many journalists with long guns and short guns came to the downstairs of Dongcheng Pictures' company and started to talk about their meal.

Not only are they early, some celebrities are also particularly active.

When Chen Dong came to the company, the conference room was already half full.

He briefly greeted everyone and immediately arranged for auditions.

"First place, Zhao Liying."

Although Xiao Zhao had already made a mental preset before coming here, when he heard his name was called first.

She was still confused.

"Who is Zhao Liying?"

Seeing no one responded, the audition assistant asked again.

At this time, a girl with a bun face finally stood up.

When Zhao Liying was brought into the audition room by her assistant, the first impression she gave everyone was that this girl was very ordinary.

But when she actually started auditioning, she performed the character's spirituality, which was very contrasting.

This made Chen Dong couldn't help but comment after watching her performance: "You are actually very talented in acting. You are no worse than your peers. I heard Bao Qiang say, you are my fan, right? Be more confident." , raise your head, believe that you are gold and will always shine, come on!"

Until she walked out of Dongcheng Pictures, Chen Dong's words of encouragement to her were still echoing in Zhao Liying's mind.

A ray of sunshine hit her face, and she raised her head. Her bangs were blown to both sides by the breeze, revealing her neat forehead, which was not ugly at all, but beautiful.

Suddenly, she turned around and looked at the company plaque of Dongcheng Pictures behind her, and found that it was also bathed in the sun, shining, and so attractive.

She heard that Yang Mi, now Dongcheng's first sister, was actually a contracted artist of Rong Xinda. She paid the liquidated damages herself and switched to Dongcheng Pictures.

Now, she also had the same idea. It's just that she's not sure if Dongcheng Pictures wants her...

At the beginning, the actors who came to audition were all artists who had not yet made their mark. Because their time was not valuable, they hoped to come early to leave a good impression.

At around ten o'clock, big-name celebrities began to appear.

The people sent by Yinghuang were Zhang Baizi, Gillian, and Bai Li.

Gillian is just a bit younger, but she has the image and temperament to play the heroine.

For example, her performance in "Painted Skin" after taking over from Zhao Wei was remarkable.

but,

This woman is about to explode.

Chen Dong didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

The same goes for Zhang Baizi.

Moreover, she went to work immediately after giving birth, which was a bit too ambitious.

As for Bai Li, she should have been gifted by Ying Huang.

Because this girl auditioned for a supporting actress who didn’t have many scenes.

Chen Dong gave her the role on the spot.

I remember that at the premiere of "Painted Skin", Weixun asked Chen Dong for a role.

Chen Dong said she couldn't play a gentle woman.

She is not convinced.

So Chen Dong asked her to come to the audition at that time.

Today, these sisters are really here.

And she dressed herself up like a 'good wife and mother'.

"How's it going? I look like a heroine in this outfit, right?"

"Well, Brother Xun, you do mean something when you don't speak."

Wen Xun rolled her eyes at Chen Dong. As the saying goes, she still needs to be proud of herself without making steamed buns. She decided to use her superb acting skills to conquer the young director in front of her.

The line Chen Dong gave her was a short plot in which the heroine was rescued from the fire and learned that her child was buried in the flames.

It took Chi Xun two minutes to memorize her lines and come up with a performance. Two minutes later, when she put down the script, she immediately got into the mood in one second.

Even when Chen Dong saw this talent, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Some people are really chased by God to feed them." '

The tears of "whispering" also come at the drop of a hat, and they vividly interpret the heartbreak of a mother who has lost her child.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but hold their breath.

When she finished her performance, everyone couldn't help but applaud her.

Chen Dong stood up and handed her a tissue.

Chirping accepted the message without any politeness. A bright smile appeared on her face that was filled with tears one second. She looked at Chen Dong and said, "How is it? Is my performance okay?"

"Excellent!" Chen Dong said unwillingly.

"Then the heroine..."

"I'll let you know later."

Wen Xun and Chen Dong looked at each other for two seconds and stopped arguing about this issue. "That's okay, then I'll leave first and won't disturb you to continue the audition."

After saying that, he waved his hand and left the audition room calmly.

Wen Xun is not the only one who came to audition for the heroine today.

In addition to her, there are three other people from the other Four Dan Shuangbing.

They are Zhang Ziyi, Fan Xiaopang and Li Binbin.

Many first-line actresses also came, such as Yan Danchen, Liu Tao, Liu Mintao...
