Chapter 823 Early stage completed

Beijing.

Bright Entertainment Company, President's Office.

Tan Yue first dialed Xin Zhi's phone number.

Since the completion of "Nirvana in Fire", Xin Zhi has been resting at home most of the time.

The phone rang a few times before I heard Xin Zhi's voice.

"Mr. Tan."

"How are you adjusting during this time? I'm going to shoot a new movie here. I have a character. Do you have time to come over and try it out?"

"Ah ha? Of course there is no problem."

Xin Zhi didn't even ask about the details of the specific role. As long as it was Tan Yue's film and television work, she would directly agree.

After hanging up the phone, Xin Zhi sat up from the sofa excitedly. She knew that Mr. Tan's new movie would be released simultaneously around the world.

Then, Tan Yue contacted Liu Qian again, and his reaction was almost the same as Xin Zhi's, and he agreed without hesitation.

The roles of the two of them have not been completely determined yet, and they still need to go through auditions to see if they are suitable before they can be finally confirmed.

but.

Tan Yue didn't worry too much about their acting skills and believed they could pass the audition.

Xin Zhi and Liu Qian are already at the forefront of many actresses in terms of acting skills. This kind of role does not put much pressure on them.

Moreover, they are all actors who have worked with Tan Yue many times, so they will be very comfortable to use. They have also worked with Ma Guoliang, so the actors do not need to spend too much time getting used to each other.

"The Truman Show" is his first movie to be released simultaneously around the world, which is very important to Tan Yue.

Therefore, the actors who will play important roles in this movie will all be veterans.

There was a slight buzzing sound from the massager on his neck. Tan Yue was sipping tea and looking at the characters in the movie, slightly lost in thought.

The casting requirements this time are much stricter than those in the past, and this is also done to better present "The Truman Show" to audiences around the world.

Then Chen Ye called Zheng Tong.

Zheng Tong knocked lightly on the door and entered the office.

Tan Yue asked: "Mr. Zheng, how have you finalized the selection of other characters in the movie?"

Zheng Tong handed the folder in his hand to Tan Yue: "The actors are all on this list. Take a look."

The information on the actors on the list is very detailed, including: film and television works they have participated in, their age, their ranking on the list of public figures, and the reasons why Zheng Tong thinks the actor is suitable for the role.

Zheng Tong selected so many roles together with the six veteran screenwriters. Apart from Tan Yue, the person who is most familiar with the script is the screenwriter who participated in polishing and writing the split-shot script.

Based on their understanding of the characters' personalities, they can easily judge which actor is more suitable.

Tan Yue took the list and looked through it carefully.

Zheng Tong waited with a slightly nervous mood.

As time passed, Tan Yue nodded with satisfaction: "First notify the actors on this list and ask them to come over and audition. If they pass, they can participate in the movie."

Many of the actors selected by Zheng Tong are familiar to Tan Yue. Even for some small roles, they are all actors that are relatively familiar to domestic audiences, and they can often be seen making guest appearances in various film and television works.

"Okay, I'll contact you now."

Zheng Tong left the office and began to instruct people to contact the actors according to the names on the list.

Although these are relatively unknown actors, they are favorites for many crew members, and at least their acting skills are very good.

Zheng Tong was worried that they would not be able to adjust the schedule, which would affect the launch of "The Truman Show".

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

On this day, Zheng Tong walked into a conference room with several people, looking extremely serious.

At this time, there were many people sitting in the conference room next door, and most of them looked very excited, because they were going to try out the show soon.

The casting selection for the movie "The Truman Show" will be held today.

These actors don't know whose movie they are going to be in, let alone what movie.

Any news about "The Truman Show" is still in the confidential stage. Without confirmation, the staff will naturally not disclose these things to the actors.

Even if it is confirmed, a confidentiality agreement will be signed, and during this period, nothing related to the movie can be disclosed.

Zheng Tong drank the water, put down the cup, looked at the other four people and said seriously: "If there is anything inappropriate, we will eliminate them directly."

The four people nodded in response, knowing the importance of the movie.

"Let them come in one by one in order."

After hearing Zheng Tong's arrangements, the assistant at the door took the list and came to the conference room next door and started calling people.

In this way, under Zheng Tong's strict requirements, the selection of actors for "The Truman Show" lasted three days before ending.

At this point, all the characters in the movie have been finalized.

Xin Zhi and Liu Qian were auditioned by Tan Yue himself, and as expected, they were able to fully interpret the characteristics of the characters.

A role that has always given Tan Yue a headache - the director of the soap opera "The Truman Show" - has never been able to find a suitable candidate.

After repeated discussions with Zheng Tong and others, Jiao Cheng was finally chosen to play the role.

Although Jiao Cheng's age is not suitable, his current makeup technology can completely make up for it.

What allowed Tan Yue to make the decision was Jiao Cheng's acting skills.

President's Office.

Tan Yue looked at the list submitted by Zheng Tong and felt that there was no problem, so he signed his name.

Then he put the list aside and called Chen Ye to the office.

Chen Ye stood opposite and listened to the arrangements.

"Xiao Ye, please inform Ma Guoliang, Liu Qian, Xin Zhi, Jiao Cheng and others to go to conference room No. 1 for a meeting."

Watching Chen Ye leave, Tan Yue picked up the script, character biographies and notebook on the table and headed to conference room No. 1.

Yesterday, several main actors in the movie were notified in advance to come to the company for a meeting.

Tan Yue planned to gather these actors together in advance and tell them about the characters' characteristics and the details of the movie to help them fully understand the movie.

On the notebook in his hand are some key issues he has sorted out in the past few days.

Tan Yue was the first person to come to the conference room.

After a while, several people arrived in the conference room one after another.

Chen Ye poured water for several people and went out.

Tan Yue said:

""The Truman Show" is our company's first movie to be released simultaneously around the world. It is very important not only to the company, to me, but also to you. So before starting the movie, I called everyone together and wanted to give everyone

Talk about the characters and some details in the movie."

Several people nodded one after another. They not only brought the script when they came, they also brought notebooks.

"Let's first listen to Teacher Ma's understanding of the character."

The two have already communicated about the characteristics of Truman. Tan Yue wanted to see Ma Guoliang's own understanding of the character these days. Moreover, Ma Guoliang's rich experience can also inspire several other people.

Letting them communicate with each other is another purpose of Tan Yue convening a few people to sit together for a meeting this time.

Several people were very familiar with each other, and the meeting started in full swing.

The next day.

Zheng Tong sat upright and listened to Tan Yue's instructions.

In recent days, his main area of ​​activity has been his own office, Tan Yue's office.

"All the actors have been confirmed, and the next step is to write a movie proposal."

Every work process of "The Truman Show" is in Tan Yue's plan.

However, the official filming can only be done after the project application letter is issued, because this is a company process and is related to the funding of the crew.

Zheng Tong nodded heavily. Every task must not be sloppy in the slightest.

After receiving the task, Zheng Tong returned to his office without stopping and quickly asked his secretary to call relevant personnel to the conference room for a meeting.

He knows the contents of the project proposal most clearly, including the preparatory work before the start of filming, the shooting process, budget funds, and shooting cycle.

Although the content of the project application letter is relatively complicated, Zheng Tong is already quite proficient. While waiting for others, he created a new document on the computer and named it "The Truman Show Project Application Letter".

Relevant personnel were quickly in place, and Zheng Tong began to assign tasks.

Work in groups of three, and each group is responsible for a piece of content and making related plans.

After making it, everyone discusses the feasibility of the plan together.

The conference room quickly became lively.
