Chapter 1081 Choosing the heroine
"The script solicitation activity we invested in this time has been successfully concluded. We have received a lot of scripts and good stories. Considering the situation of the actresses you mentioned, Mr. Yang, we screened them and finally got these three The script should be more in line with the appetite of the audience, and also more in line with our situation."
In the conference room of Feilong Film and Television, Zhu Debo, the vice president, put three folders in front of Yang Hao.
Yang Hao hummed, opened a folder, and looked at it roughly.
There are scripts in each folder, and there are simple script stories in front of them, the number of words is not many, Yang Hao quickly read the first one, then put it down, and read the second and third one after another.
Putting down the third folder, Yang Hao's eyes fell on the second folder, and he lifted it up immediately, and glanced at the vice president Zhu Debo and art director Wang Feng sitting on the left and right.
"What's your opinion?"
Wang Feng straightened his back slightly: "These three scripts are all good, they are all light-hearted and humorous urban romance dramas, and should be liked by the audience, but at the same time, it is difficult to make such a classic, and most of the box office depends on The star appeal of participating stars, but with Xi Feifei joining, it should not be a big problem in this regard. Regardless of whether Xi Feifei is a professional actor or not, at least she is famous enough, the audience knows her, and many people like her, that is enough , if we can invite another worthy male star to partner with him, it shouldn't be a big problem."
After a short pause, Wang Feng gave his opinion: "As Mr. Zhu said, because we need more than one actor to admire, I suggest choosing the script of Let's Get Married Together."
Yang Hao nodded slightly, turned to look at Zhu Debo, Zhu Debo also gave his own opinion: "If we are more conservative, we can make this contract marriage, with Xi Feifei as the heroine, and invite another If you are famous as the leading actor, it would be better to be a partner, but if you want them to act at the same time, it is best to get married together in this script."
Yang Hao patted the folder on his hand with a smile, and said with a smile: "Xi Feifei is also a newcomer in acting, anyway, we all want to promote newcomers, so let's just go together, anyway, I don't care how much profit must be made, as long as we can You can do it without losing money.”
Zhu Debo and Wang Feng looked at each other helplessly. Is it a good thing or a bad thing to have such a boss?
The requirements for setting up a company to make movies are really low, as long as you don’t lose money, you are indeed rich.
Zhu Debo said with a smile: "Because of Mr. Zhao, as long as our films are not so bad, we won't lose money. What Mr. Yang means is, let's make a decision on this book, let's get married?"
Yang Hao nodded with a smile and said: "I'm a layman for scripts, but I can also see that this story is good. Several male and female protagonists have distinct personalities, and each pair of lovers has its own conflicts. It's a reality in this society. It exists, it seems to be more resonant, plus the comedy elements in it, handsome men and beautiful women, I think it should not be too bad, as for the other two scripts, we can finish this one later. For filming, of course, you can make preparations first, let’s get married here and finish filming, then you can continue filming there.”
Zhu Debo frowned slightly and said: "Mr. Yang, after the first film is shot, there will be a period of time between post-processing and waiting for it to go online, that is to say, it will take some time for us to recover the cost of the first film. For filming, there needs to be re-investment..."
Yang Hao smiled and said: "No problem, as long as other tasks are done well, money is not a problem, even if I don't invest, someone will definitely invest, you don't have to worry about these, you just need to make preparations in advance as I said good."
Zhu Debo and Wang Feng looked at each other again, with two points of eagerness in their eyes.
Usually, except for those relatively large film companies, many of them will only make one film, then release it, collect money, and then invest money to shoot the second film. The film contracts are also rising rapidly, and the cost of each film will not be low. If you shoot too many consecutively or at the same time, it is equivalent to buying too many goods and piling them up in the warehouse, which will cause a shortage of funds and even a breakdown in the flow of funds...
Since Yang Hao said this, it obviously proves that he is going to make Feilong Film and Television bigger, although it may be in his heart that making Feilong Film and Television bigger is just to make more movies and let those girls Actors are always filming...
These actresses are really happy.
But on the other hand, Yang Hao's actions are definitely good news for Zhu Debo, Wang Feng and others. After all, Yang Hao's statement is tantamount to supporting them.
"Then let's talk about actors."
Zhu Debo smiled and said the next topic of discussion: "Let's get married together. There are three couples in it. The three men represent three different attitudes to life, and the three women also represent three different attitudes to life. , colliding with each other, it is very interesting.”
Wang Feng next to him picked up the conversation and said with a smile: "The number one male is 28-year-old Tang Bo. He has a small success in his career. He is young and doesn't want to give up. He just wants to fall in love. He has been in love many times. This kind of mentality is very common in society. It's normal among people, the female number one Song Xiaoli is with him and wants to get married wholeheartedly, because she is very insecure."
"The second male number is 35-year-old Huang Yang, a divorced man with a child. He has been secretly in love for many years, but he never dared to confess. Complete good deeds, mature and stable, the second female lead is a company executive, she is devoted to her work, ignoring Huang Yang's love for her, this is the type of strong woman."
"The male No. 3 is a university music teacher. He likes music, longs for freedom, and loves to travel. The female No. 3 is a tour guide. The two build a relationship through music exchanges, encounter dangers while traveling, and face dangers together. During this process, female No. 3 finally understood what kind of relationship she wanted, so she got rid of the huge pressure from her family and chased her dreams and love."
After Wang Feng briefly explained the backgrounds of the main three lovers in the script, he said with a smile: "Let's not mention the choice of the male lead today, let's discuss the selection of the three female leads first."
Yang Hao hummed, looked at the list of characters in front of him, and the image and temperament of Feifei and others appeared in his mind. After a while, he said: "The female number one, Song Xiaoli, has a gentle temperament, and I think it is more in line with Xi Feifei's temperament."
Zhu Debo agreed: "Xi Feifei is more suitable. She has always been easy to contact in front of the public, and she feels gentle and kind. It should be the most suitable for her to play the leading role."
Wang Feng said with a smile: "I also think she is suitable to play Song Xiaoli, and the role is not very demanding, the main thing is to show a woman's yearning for marriage, a yearning for a sense of security is enough."
Seeing that both of them agreed, Yang Hao continued with a smile and said, "The second female lead is relatively mature, with a more adult temperament. If she has the style of a strong woman, I think Zhao Yuan should be more suitable. Compared with the other few People need to appear more mature, and the female number three is under tremendous pressure while pursuing her true love. This stubborn personality is exactly the same as Situ Lei, and she herself has such a personality, so it should be the most suitable for her to play the role."
Zhu Debo smiled and said, "Mr. Yang, you are familiar with them. If you say they are suitable, there should be no problem."
Yang Hao closed the folder in his hand, and said with a smile: "This is just my personal opinion. When the specific roles are determined, they should come to the scene, so that you and the director and others can take a look at it with a professional eye. They are heroines, but they also hope that they can play suitable roles, not all roles."
Zhu Debo smiled and said: "Okay, let's make a preliminary reservation like this. Regarding the director of this film, we have a few recommendations..."
Yang Hao waved his hand, interrupted Zhu Debo and said, "You can discuss this matter with Minglong. He is familiar with this matter. I'm purely a layman, so I won't interfere. As long as you two think it's okay, then it's OK." .”
Zhu Debo was no stranger to Yang Hao throwing his hands away again, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's settle down like this first, and we will discuss later if there are any problems."
After the meeting ended, Yang Hao saw that there was not much going on in the company, so he left work early.
Walking on the road, Yang Hao called Zhao Yuan and Situ Lei and told them that he would give them a script for them to familiarize themselves with. When they were casting, they still needed to come to the company for an interview.
Although Yang Hao has the right to say whoever plays the role, Yang Hao is not that kind of bossy person. He pursues professional things and let professional people do it. He will ask the director and others to see if Zhao Yuan and others It is in line with the image and temperament of the three female characters in the script.
If it fits, then it’s okay, if it doesn’t, then it’s okay, the most is to change the script...
Yang Hao is not planning to invite other female stars to be the heroines of his movie now. As for Li Shanshan and Dong Yi, this film will not be able to be the heroines, and they will have to find another chance in the future. After all, there is usually only one heroine. This time they are all specially selected scripts, so there are three heroines, at least in terms of roles, they are almost the same, there can't be more.
Yang Hao still made a phone call to Li Shanshan and Dong Yi, informing them to return to Zhonghai after filming, and to come to the company, even if they need to register first, so that everyone can meet, and take care of their image when choosing scripts in the future Temperament picks, maybe the second, maybe the third, will definitely let them play the heroine.
Li Shanshan and Dong Yi knew that they could not participate in Yang Hao's first movie, although they were somewhat disappointed, but they also knew that this was a normal thing, let's not talk about anything else, just their personal relationship with Yang Hao , The two of them are completely incomparable.
Xi Feifei is Yang Hao's younger sister who grew up, and has a huge reputation, so she is indispensable. Zhao Yuan is Yang Hao's woman. He doesn't take care of who she takes care of. Situ Lei is the woman Sun Xuanyue likes. Sun Xuanyue is Yang Hao's good brother, can he not take care of him?
So on the one hand, maybe the heroine of the script is really not suitable for the image and character of the two of them, but on the other hand, after all, the two of them and Yang Hao are at most ordinary friends, and the relationship is not close enough, right?
