Millennium director

Chapter 519 Thankless?

"Have you returned to the company too?"

"Aren't you back too?"

"Who wouldn't come back when given this opportunity?"

In the Light and Shadow Times company building, one after another, the company's top artists, who are rarely seen in normal times, all rushed back today.

Zhu Yawen, Yang Mi, Wang Ou, Jinsha, Wang Likun, Tang Yan and other artists signed by the company gathered together.

"Hey, is that the little prince of literary films?"

Yang Mi, who was next to Tang Yan, reached out and poked Tang Yan's arm, gesturing for her to look towards the company's front lobby.

An actor with a melancholic temperament was being guided by the company's front desk to the artist management department.

"Yes, he is Qin Hao. Not long after he signed in the company, he encountered this opportunity. He is so lucky." Tang Yan pouted and said with some envy.

This time the company released news that only two actors, one male and one female, can join the 20th Century Fox blockbuster "Alien Prequel" project.

Qin Hao was an actor and had no competition or conflict with them, so Tang Yan had the idea to make some jokes.

"He has no chance." Yang Mi shook her head and said disdainfully: "He has only been in the company for too short a time. It is impossible to give him such a good opportunity."

"Those with senior qualifications such as Zhu Yawen, Yuan Hong, and Luo Jin have the greatest chances."

Tang Yan nodded thoughtfully: "Which female character, Jinsha, has the greatest chance?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Mi's face immediately darkened, "That's not necessarily the case. Jin Sha has no experience in acting in movies. It would not be a good thing to send her to Hollywood."

"But we don't have much experience in acting in movies." Tang Yan scratched his head, a little silly.

Yang Mi was completely stunned. She glanced sideways at Tang Yan, then turned around and walked upstairs.

"No matter what, I will work very hard and I will not give up until the dust settles."

Hengdian, the recording scene of "Actors Please Take Your Place".

After three days of group performance experience, all fifty contestants experienced a transformation.

Especially those players from performance schools.

If they were just delicate flowers in the greenhouse before, after these three days of real group performance experience, they have grown up to a certain extent and understand how difficult it is to be a real low-level group performer.

Of course, the best three days would only allow them to have a taste.

There are feelings, but the feelings are not very deep.

When the staff of the program team announced that today's group performance experience was over, they were filled with a feeling of joy.

Including those actors with wild backgrounds.

After all, they are now actors who can reliably play important supporting roles, and they really have no interest in acting as extras.

"Finally finished recording this party."

"The extras are really tiring. The day before yesterday I was forced to stand for a day, yesterday I walked on the street for a day, and today I pretended to be dead."

"The worst thing is that there is not a single line from the beginning to the end, and there may not even be a single frontal shot."

"Haha, I do, I still have three lines!"

"Yeah, why did the director choose you as a foreground actor? I'm obviously no worse than you!"

The players walked to the bus laughing and joking, planning to go back to the dormitory to have a good rest.

Experiencing the life of a group performer is just a warm-up activity for them. It is actually cut into the main film, which is the content of one issue.

Next is what really tests them.

50 into 28 group knockout!

The four instructors and Liu Yifei, the convener, were standing next to the bus, watching each contestant get on the bus.

In the past three days, not only were these contestants experiencing group performance life, but four mentors were also silently observing the 50 contestants behind the scenes.

They did not show up, but hid in the studio room. Through the live cameras, they followed the whole process to understand what these fifty contestants felt during the group performance and how they treated the job. of.

Those who do well and can endure hardship will naturally gain more appreciation from their instructors.

Those who are pampered, have many minor problems, and cannot bear hardships will naturally be disliked by their mentors.

And these evaluations will also affect the group knockout competition that will begin next!

Among the 50 players, only 28 will eventually successfully join the teams of four mentors, and each team has only seven places.

Many players thought that the knockout rounds would officially begin tomorrow.

But in fact, from the first day they started recording and doing group performances, the elimination round had already begun.

Some smart contestants work hard to do their extra work without complaining about hardship or exhaustion. Do they really like the job of extra performance?

Of course it's impossible.

It's just that they are smart and guessed that every move they made must be watched by the four mentors who have not shown up yet.

But there are not many such smart people, only five or six.

"I think Li Xian is quite good. Although he is a bit joking, he never complains or complains. Instead, he will take the initiative to help the crew with small things."

"That Zhao Liying is not bad either. She is an actor who truly came from the bottom and knows how to survive on the set."

"That contestant named Qiao Xin is not very good. He is spoiled and cries at every turn. He is tall and strong, but he has such a coquettish temper."

"The actor Bai Yu in the film is good, but his image and temperament are a bit too honest. He may not be suitable for playing the leading role."

"That's not necessarily true. He has a gentle and gentle aura about him, and he can play the kind of educated youth in the 1970s and 1980s."

The four instructors talked with gusto, and from time to time they would bring the topic to Liu Yifei, asking her to express her opinions so as not to ignore her.

It wasn't until the bus carrying the contestants had left the venue and several cameras following the instructor had finished recording that Gong Li shook his shoulders, bumped Liu Yifei lightly, and asked: "Qianxi, I heard that Director Wu is there , opened up channels for domestic actors to enter Hollywood?"

"You, Light and Shadow, are going to cast two actors to star in 20th Century Fox's "Alien Prequel"?"

There was a bit of envy in Gong Li's eyes.

Although she has given up her desire to go to Hollywood now, she was still very ambitious back then and wanted to represent the Chinese people in Hollywood.

It's just that Hollywood is a world dominated by white capital, and it is impossible to give her, a Chinese actress, any good opportunities.

In comparison, Wu Yuan, who can control the capital power in Hollywood, is much more powerful. Now he can directly send Chinese actors from his company to Hollywood blockbusters. This is so awesome.

"There is such a thing." Liu Yifei covered her mouth and smiled, and explained seriously under the probing eyes of the four mentors: "This movie was jointly invested by my senior company in the United States and 20th Century Fox, so my senior brother has The right to cast.”

"But we can only put two Chinese supporting actors in the main cast. The male and female protagonists and the two important supporting roles must be Hollywood actors."

Zhang Yimou snorted coldly. He, who always spoke softly and softly, rarely said with dissatisfaction in a high-pitched voice: "That's how Hollywood is!"

"We Chinese actors and movies have no need to pursue the favor of Hollywood or flatter their bad feet!"

"They will not give us Chinese people a fair chance!"

"I think all Director Wu's efforts are thankless!" (End of Chapter)
