afternoon.

Tan Yue came to the TV drama department, and Qian Tao was already waiting.

The two went to the audition place for "Lotus Lantern". On the way, Qian Tao told Tan Yue about the situation of the audition actors.

Tan Yue raised his eyebrows, but he was not surprised that Liu Qian also came to audition.

Among the many female artists in the company currently, Liu Qian can be said to be one of the most advanced ones.

Tan Yue has also heard of her reputation and often sees some information about her.

Putting yourself in another person's shoes, without knowing much about the script of "Lotus Lantern" and without knowing the previous achievements of "Lotus Lantern", if Tan Yue were an actor, he would not be very fond of "Lotus Lantern".

Optimistic.

For artists who are on the rise, the most important thing is not to make money, but to build a good reputation among the audience. Of course, this does not include celebrities with low traffic who fall after making a fortune.

At present, almost all the traffic stars appearing in China, except Zhang Wenhua, are performing to the public what is short-lived.

This kind of traffic star can reach a very high level in a short period of time, but it is too vain and has an unstable foundation. It will be like a shooting star, leaving a brief brilliance in the sky and then turning into ashes.

Chen Ziyu was one of the driving forces behind the rise of traffic stars. Traffic stars are also divided into different categories. The top one is the top traffic star. This kind of top traffic star belongs to the ranks of first-line stars. Looking at all the top traffic stars in the past few years,

There were only six or seven people.

Among these six or seven people, two are contracted artists under Bright Entertainment.

One is the current first-tier artist Zhang Wenhua. The other is Li Youfan who has fallen from the first-tier to the second-tier.

Li Youfan looks more refined than Zhang Wenhua. It is said that he was the school idol when he was in school. Later, he was discovered by a talent scout from Bright Entertainment Company and signed.

Later, traffic boomed, and Li Youfan was lucky enough to become one of the chess pieces selected by Bright Entertainment Company. After being praised again and again, he finally stood out and became a top traffic. In just two or three years, he entered the ranks of first-line artists.

.

However, trying to encourage growth is not a long-term solution.

He stayed in the position of a big star for less than half a year, and then he fell off in a hurry.

However, although he has already started to go downhill, Li Youfan has made a lot of money in just two years, at least enough for him to live on for several lifetimes.

And Cuican Entertainment Company naturally made a lot of money.

Once the money is made, the artist is useless. In the future, he will probably only become a topic of conversation for people after dinner. In the entertainment industry, he will never be the protagonist again.

In recent months, it seems that no big productions or popular variety shows have come to Li Youfan. He has become cold. This industry is very realistic. People who have no value are equal to useless people.

Compared to Li Youfan, Zhang Wenhua can be said to be lucky. If he had not met Tan Yue, his fate would not be much worse than Li Youfan.

It can be said that it was Tan Yue who saved Zhang Wenhua. This is one of the reasons why Zhang Wenhua still maintains great respect for Tan Yue even though he is a big star.

From the original "Tucao Conference" to the later song delivery, he even gave Zhang Wenhua a surprise at the concert. During this period, he guided Zhang Wenhua to develop in the direction of singing and dancing.

Although the current Zhang Wenhua is not as prosperous as he was at his peak, he is still a top streamer. He is the top streamer that has been maintained for the longest time, and there is a faint trend of transforming from a top streamer to a powerful one.

Tan Yue and Qian Tao came to the audition place.

This is a large conference room. At this moment, the staff has moved the long table out of the conference room, making the conference room empty.

A staff member stood at the door. They saw Tan Yue and Qian Tao walking over and greeted them.

Tan Yue smiled softly and nodded slightly.

The two walked into the conference room, and the audition had not yet begun.

At one end of the conference room, there was a rectangular table with a baby velvet blanket spread on the table. Mineral water was placed on it. Next to the mineral water, there was a small sign with the name written on it.

This is the position of the audition judges. Judging from the name, there are three audition judges.

At this time, there were already two people, one on the left and one on the right, and the middle position was vacant.

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Qian."

"Mr. Tan is here."

"Mr. Tan, Mr. Qian."

People in the conference room greeted the two people one after another.

Tan Yue nodded in response, walked to the table, and greeted the two people standing opposite.

"Director Lin, Teacher Zhang."

These two people are Lin Qingye, the director of "Lotus Lantern", and Zhang Hong, the screenwriter.

Lin Qingye is in his forties, with thick black hair and a medium build. From the outside, he is a relatively artistic person.

Zhang Hong just celebrated his 50th birthday some time ago. Tan Yue had previously given the original script of "Lotus Lantern" to five outstanding screenwriters in the TV drama department, and Zhang Hong was the oldest one among them.

Regarding the script of "Lotus Lantern", Zhang Hong put forward the most opinions, so in the end Tan Yue decided to let Zhang Hong work with him as the screenwriter of "Lotus Lantern".

Of course, Zhang Hong must be ranked behind Tan Yue when it comes to signing.

The reason for doing this is because Tan Yue is too busy at work. It is destined that he cannot put a lot of energy into the second revision and polishing of the script. He only needs to check it one last time.

In this case, the experienced Zhang Hong is a good assistant.

After saying hello, Tan Yue walked to the middle of the judges' table and sat down. In the middle, there was his name - Tan Yue.

Qian Tao sat to one side. He was not one of the audition judges and could only watch.

After Tan Yue sat down, Lin Qingye picked up the script and asked Tan Yue some unclear points.

Lin Qingye came into contact with the script later, but after getting the script, he immediately felt excited and read through most of the script in a short time.

After reading the script, Lin Qingye instantly admired Tan Yue for writing such a good script for the first time.

Lin Qingye read the revised script, but no matter how the script was modified, it was always modified based on the original script given by Tan Yue.

The more I read the script, the more I liked it. However, although I have studied it deeply, there are still some parts that I am not sure about. After all, he did not write this story. And if I asked Zhang Hong, Zhang Hong could not give him a very satisfactory answer.

Lin Qingye's question was more general: what is this story about?

Because at his level, he has read too many scripts, and at a glance, he knows how to shoot here and how actors should act.

He needs to have a deeper grasp of the story as a whole so that he can have a clearer direction when filming the drama.

Tan Yue looked at Lin Qingye and said: "Director Lin, the story of "Lotus Lantern" can actually be summarized in one sentence. In order to save his mother, Chen Xiang ignored the obstruction of his uncle Erlang Shen and split Huashan Mountain with an axe."

Lin Qingye nodded.

Tan Yue continued: "But how to shoot more than 30 episodes requires very high requirements for the script. You should know the folk legend of Agarwood splitting the mountain to save her mother, but the story our script tells is even more bizarre than this folk legend.

."

Lin Qingye looked serious and said: "Yes, purely from the perspective of the direction of the male protagonist, it is just this line, but it has to tell a story of more than thirty episodes. The requirements for our script are very high."

Tan Yue said: "Yes, like how Chen Xiang discovered his mother, there was a very tortuous process. At first, he felt that he had magic, then he discovered the existence of the lotus lantern, and ran to the underworld to see the Book of Life and Death. Then he

I discovered, eh? My mother is not dead. Not dead, but where is she? With this question, I kept looking for the answer."

The drama "Lotus Lantern" is one of CCTV's rare mythological dramas. For this drama, CCTV abandoned the historical dramas it has always pursued. It spent several years, invested heavily, and worked hard to shoot. It was natural that it was because

Be optimistic about the quality of this drama.

Lin Qingye's face flashed with thought, and he nodded gently.

Tan Yue looked at Lin Qingye's appearance and knew that he already understood, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After all, even if Lin Qingye didn't understand "Lotus Lantern", there is still Tan Yue. As the second male lead in the play who is more eye-catching than the first male lead, his role runs from the beginning to the end of the play. Tan Yue has always been

Keep an eye on the scene to ensure that there will be no mistakes in terms of quality.

Participating in "Lotus Lantern" this time, there are so many scenes, and it is also an exercise for Tan Yue.

Tan Yue had great ambitions in the future, and his successes again and again gave him the confidence to realize his great ambitions.

He has never dabbled in TV dramas before, and now he wants to gain an in-depth understanding of the entire process of filming and distribution of film and television dramas as quickly as possible.

He learned from Lin Qingye on the macro level and learned on the details by playing Erlang Shen himself.

The filming of "Lotus Lantern" is bound to progress at a slow pace this time, because Tan Yue has already made repeated preparations.

At this time, a staff member came over and asked if the audition could begin.

Tan Yue, Lin Qingye, and Zhang Hong are all ready to start the audition.

As the audition began, the conference room quickly began to clear, and everyone except two staff members left the conference room.

And soon, footsteps came from the door.

According to Tan Yue's requirements, when selecting actors, first consider artists contracted by Bright Entertainment Company.

When the actors arrive on time, audition for important roles first, because generally the actors who come to audition for important roles will have higher status. In this case, it is not easy to keep these high-status artists waiting for a long time.

The entertainment industry is such a reality. There are only a few spots, so you have to wait outside.

The first person to audition is second-tier artist Liu Qian. The role Liu Qian wants to audition is the female lead in "Lotus Lantern", the vixen Xiaoyu.

Although he is a contracted artist of the company, the procedures should be followed normally. Information about Liu Qian was placed in front of the three judges. Qian Tao, who was sitting on one side, was not ignored, and the staff also provided

He has a share. After all, this is the head of the TV drama department. The staff still know who their immediate boss is.

Tan Yue picked up Liu Qian's information and some information about her came to his mind.
