Chapter 350 Hateful people, or there are pitiful things
Hearing what happened to Yao Qiyun, Du Caige couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic.
Lu Xun has a saying, "Poor people must have something to hate".
The reverse is also true.
Hateful people may also be pitiful.
But his love is merciful and his sins are unforgivable.
Sympathy belongs to sympathy. For such a person who tried to murder himself using professional skills, Du Caige would definitely not let her go.
Ning Yuerong continued to introduce.
"Maybe it's to treat the trauma of the soul. Yao Qiyun has received psychological counseling in the magic city for a period of time, but I have not yet investigated which counselor received her. She returned to Moling in 1998 and began to contact spirits. As a monk, I have worked in several local studios and participated in many salons of spiritual studios.”
"In 2001, she registered for 'Lingquan Studio'. I checked and the license is complete."
"According to the tax records, her studio is doing well and she has made a lot of money over the years."
"But she didn't buy a house in China. As far as I know, she invested all of her money in Sakurajima, paid a down payment to buy a two-storey apartment in Tokyo, and entrusted a local intermediary to help her rent it out."
"A dozen days ago, she suddenly closed the studio and transferred all the funds from the bank. My classmates and I investigated extensively and finally found her exit record."
"She took a China Southern Airlines flight a few days ago, and the destination was Malaysia. Then we followed the map and continued to investigate. We found out that she was on a work visa and was recruited by a small local record company in Malaysia to work in the past. The visa is valid. 2 years."
"I did some further investigation and found a very interesting clue. The record company has a major shareholder whose name is exactly the same as the name of the general manager of Tianyi Entertainment's Malaysian branch."
"Haha," Du Caige paused after laughing, "Shen Jinsong."
"That's right, I also guessed that Yao Qiyun's departure was probably arranged by Shen Jinsong behind the scenes. But I can't find a direct connection between Shen Jinsong and her, at least not now. Moreover, if she If you don't return to China, the investigation will be very difficult, and many clues will be interrupted."
Du Caige was silent for a long time before he said, "Thank you, Sister Ning, I don't know how much effort you have spent on this, and how much you have spent. But it must be very difficult."
Ning Yuerong smiled: "Since we are siblings, we won't talk about this."
...
After dinner with Ning Yuerong,
After exchanging information, Du Caige hurried to the company.
I listened to Duan Xiaochen's re-recorded "Although there is nothing in our hands" in the past few days, and the latest recorded "I once thought about it for a hundred times".
"It's good, but it's not good enough." Du Caige called Duan Xiaochen, who was recording a show in another province.
Regarding work, Duan Xiaochen is generally very serious, and can be taught with humility, "What's not good enough?"
"I don't know how to describe it. In short, go see the movies I recommend and get a feel for it."
"I want you to watch it with me."
"I'm really busy..."
"After watching the movie, I can give it to you..." Duan Xiaochen lowered his voice.
"I thought about it, I still have time to watch movies with you."
"Haha! Man."
"Hmph, woman."
Duan Xiaochen smiled and said, "You are like a child sometimes. When I give birth to a baby for you in the future, I will have two babies, one big and one small. You are Du Damao, and there is another Du Xiaomao."
In fact, at this time, Du Caige could hit the snake with the stick and say, "Mom, I want milk."
This is a stalk that Du Caige once played with Yan Yingzhen.
At that time, these words were naturally a hustle and bustle, and a passion unfolded.
Eh, but at that time, he hadn't awakened the memory of his previous life.
Now, he can completely remember what happened on the earth in the previous life, but what followed was the return of his sense of shame, which led to a lower rank. This "mom" was really unbearable.
After hanging up the phone, Du Caige pondered carefully whether Duan Xiaochen's joke was a hint to him that she hoped that he would propose marriage as soon as possible, that she wanted to give birth to him?
Well, no, I didn't think about it, I didn't think about it at all.
What hints, I don't understand at all, I don't know anything.
Du Caige immediately snapped his fingers and cast the Great Forgetting Technique on himself.
Next, Du Caige rushed to the interview site without stopping.
Now, because the company is constantly recruiting people, the two-story office building is not enough, and it is actively planning to rent two more floors.
So, originally this kind of interview would be fine in the company, but the company couldn't find any spare rooms, so they could only find a mid-range hotel and rent a large conference room.
The reason why I didn't find a small hotel... It can't be too shabby, can it?
Why don't people come for an interview, take a look, oh, such a bad interview venue? The crew is afraid they have no money.
After that, the filming really started. Do you have to live in a hostel for 60 yuan a night; eat 6 yuan a meal, a meat and a vegetarian lunch without eggs?
Sorry, goodbye.
Du Caige hurriedly slowed down, and finally he was not late.
This afternoon, there are 7 actors to be interviewed, and they are all competing for the role of "Tang Ren" in the newly-launched film "Detective Chinatown 1".
As for other roles, such as Huang Langdeng, Kun Tai, Bei Ge and other supporting roles, Du Caige does not plan to participate in the casting.
Always give Meng Zhaolong some power and give other members of the production team some soup.
If you want your horse to run fast, you always have to give the horse some grass to eat.
Nor is it about giving them the power to go unspoken actresses.
However, sometimes, they also have favors to repay.
Sometimes, they also have relatives and friends to arrange.
Sometimes, they also want to brag, showing the heroic "Oh, this trivial matter, I can handle it with a single sentence", and let girlfriends, old brothers, and relatives in the countryside show admiration.
At such a time, why not sell face to them.
The entertainment industry has its own rules.
Although Du Caige doesn't like some things, he still doesn't have the power to fight against the rules, or to make his own rules.
You can only hide and develop wretchedly.
When the group starts, it will jump out and be a blockbuster.
Therefore, Du Caige paid special attention to the casting of "Tang Ren" this time.
Because, in the drama "Tang Detective", at least Director Chen's version of "Tang Detective" on Earth, the most outstanding character is "Tang Ren".
Those exaggerated and naturally joyful performances of this character will make it easy for people to immerse themselves in it, without paying attention to the weak points of the script and thinking about the imperfections of the plot connection.
In "Tang Detective", most of the characters' performances are very exaggerated, and there will be many unrealistic (reasonable, but unrealistic) places in the character's setting and careful thinking.
But once the audience is brought into the rhythm by "Tang Ren"'s performance, all these become advantages.
But if the "Tang Detective" of Meng Zhaolong's version of Blue Star does not have a "Tang Ren" that meets the requirements, the effect of the shooting will be difficult to predict.
Perhaps, it will appear that the plot is separated; perhaps, it will make it difficult for people to immerse in it; or perhaps, it will make people feel that the performance is exaggerated and blunt, making it difficult to watch.
Du Caige is a talented director, but not an experienced and successful director.
He's still in the formative phase of making mistakes and making lots of mistakes.
Therefore, he is not very sure about his own judgment.
Therefore, if he wants to copy the success of "Tang Detective" - not copying "Tang Detective", he feels that at the very least, it is necessary to ensure that the two roles of Tang Ren and Tang Feng can meet the requirements 90%.
If Tang Feng is played by Jiang Youxi, there should be no problem.
After all, Du Caige has cooperated with Jiang Youxi, so there is still a certain degree of certainty.
So now the key is Tang Ren.
"Your performance is wonderful. Thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to participate in our audition. We will discuss and determine the candidate soon, and whether or not to cooperate with you in the end, we will inform your agent as soon as possible."
Du Caige got up, shook hands with an actor who had just finished auditioning, and sent him out as a gift.
And the other party also behaved respectfully and gratefully.
After all, although Du Caige has only just been involved in the film and television industry, he is a cultural celebrity and a big name in the music industry.
As a songwriter, writer, and nominated as a candidate for the Bai Yang Literature Award, Du Caige's status is naturally higher than that of ordinary movie stars, queens and queens.
He can already be said to be a predator at the higher end of the entertainment industry's food chain.
And now that he can be so polite and polite, he can even be described as "Corporate Li Xian", so as long as these actors who come to audition are not cerebral palsy, they must show their gratitude.
Otherwise, in the eyes of others, they are not polite and do not give face to big coffee.
Those who can eat this bowl of rice are not excluded from the idiots who can't handle it, and there are also idiots who are dedicated only to the pursuit of art.
But most of them are exquisite people.
Those who are not good have already been eliminated.
"Let's take a 5-minute break and let the next interviewee come in later." Du Caige told the staff, then sat back in his seat and rubbed his eyes wearily.
"How was this just now?" Meng Zhaolong bowed and asked.
Du Caige shook his head.
"Your requirements are too high," Meng Zhaolong smiled, unable to see his emotions, "With our budget, first-tier stars can't afford it. Second-tier and third-tier stars, those who meet the conditions and have suitable schedules, are all here. Well, I guess you don't even care."
Du Caige unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and took a few sips. "Actually, it's not a question of being unattractive. In fact, the acting skills of these actors who have just interviewed are basically passable, but the problem is that they don't fit the character image of Tang Ren in my mind."
Meng Zhaolong pouted: "Then what should I do? If it goes on like this, I can only go to the actors and actresses to find someone."
"That's not too bad. The role of Tang Ren should be bigger and more exaggerated. I think a drama actor and a drama actor can give it a try. In short, this role can't be settled. I can't find a suitable Tang Ren for a while. , I will temporarily seal this script and shoot another script." Du Caige said firmly.
"As you like, you are the boss." Meng Zhaolong shrugged helplessly.
Du Caige smiled and pointed to his head, "Don't worry, I have ideas in my head that are absolutely not inferior to this script."
Meng Zhaolong was suspicious and said lazily, "Okay, then I can rest assured. Anyway, let's finish the interviews with these actors first. Have you rested? Call the next one."
Hearing what he said, Du Caige always felt like a young lady who was picking up guests. After a short rest, the old man hurriedly called the next guest in.
He shook his head to cast out the absurd feeling, and said loudly, "Please come in for the audition with the next actor."
