Chapter 169 Drop Pie

"Starmeng Media has no business contact with Custer Pictures..."

In the general manager's office, Li Mengru said to Luo Kai: "I don't know Custer's people either, but just yesterday, a producer of Custer Pictures found me and hoped that you would play Xie He."

Xie He is the supporting actor in the second love story in the movie "This World is So Beautiful". In the story, he has a rival role with the first female supporting role, Wang Li, the heroine's best friend.

Although this character does not have many scenes, it plays a very important role. Xie He is a wandering singer. Xiao Lu's image and temperament are very consistent with his personality, and he has also taken all the shots.

It is worth mentioning that this is the first time that Xiao Lu has "electrically shocked". His performance is very good, but he ended up cheating Caster Pictures.

Caster Pictures is not a top film and television company in the circle. It took a lot of effort to invest in the production of this movie. It was originally expected to achieve a brilliant box office result in the New Year holiday, but the result...

Luo Kai was a little curious: "Why did they choose me to be the firefighter?"

That's right, Luo Kai is now regarded as a firefighter by Custer Pictures to save this movie that has suffered miserable misfortune.

The investment in "This World is So Beautiful" is not much, and it has reached 50 million. Even for the role of putting out a fire, there are definitely a large number of actors in the circle who are rushing to get it.

Luo Kai has become a little famous in the pop music scene, but he has nothing to do with the film and television industry. Logically speaking, Caster Pictures should choose the kind of experienced actors to save the scene.

What they need most is time, and newcomers who have never acted in the show will waste their time the most.

"This character needs a singer like you to play..."

Li Mengru explained: "They don't have a better choice in a short period of time, and of course you are not the only choice. First of all, you have to pass their auditions."

"Then now, it depends on your choice."

Making a movie...

At this moment, Luo Kai was really feeling a lot. Scenes of rebirth of the world flashed through his mind, making him suddenly lose his mind for 3 seconds.

After thinking about it, Luo Kai asked, "How much is the salary?"

Li Mengru's expression was a bit strange - if it were another new singer, if he had the opportunity to play an important supporting role in a movie like this, how would he care about the salary? Let's agree first.

If you are good at singing, you will be good at acting. In the entertainment industry, the status of an actor is higher than that of a singer.

But she still couldn't answer Luo Kai's question: "There was no discussion on the pay, it was mainly an intention. Usually, you have to pass the audition first. In addition, they also need the copyright of your two works."

Several outstanding original works by Luo Kai are also one of the important reasons why Custer Film took the initiative to find him. Otherwise, there would be too many singers in the circle who have experience at the bottom.

Luo Kai said, "Okay, let's try it first."

In fact, Luo Kai didn't care much about this opportunity, but Li Mengru obviously hoped that he could win this role. Besides, making movies would also increase popularity and status, so he agreed.

"very good…"

Li Mengru smiled and said, "Then I will contact Mr. Sun of Custer now to arrange an audition."

As she said that, she picked up the phone and called the other party's number directly.

After the phone was connected, Li Mengru talked to the Manager Sun for a few words, then covered the phone and asked Luo Kai: "Can you go there in the morning? They are in a hurry."

Luo Kai said, "Give me an hour, I need to prepare."

Although Li Mengru didn't know what Luo Kai was going to prepare, she still discussed with the other party as Luo Kai asked.

The communication between the two sides was very smooth, and the audition time was set at 10 am, and the place was at Yanjing Film and Television Base.

"That's OK..."

Since he agreed, Luo Kai was very happy: "I'll go back and prepare."

After leaving the general manager's office, he came to his studio and talked to Zhang Bo first.

Zhang Bo was amused as soon as he heard this: "Haha, is this a pie falling from the sky?"

Luo Kai smiled, sat in front of his workbench, and opened the composition software on the computer.

After 1 hour, finish the work!

He called Li Mengru, then called Zhang Bo and went to Yanjing Film and Television Base together.

Originally, the general manager Li Mengru didn't need to take action when trying a camera, but she attached great importance to her cooperation with Caster Pictures, so she personally accompanied Luo Kai.

Yanjing Film and Television Base, also known as Yanjing Film and Television City, is one of the four major film and television bases in China. It has a strong scale and strength. Multiple crews have been filming films and TV series at the same time all year round.

The Yanjing Film and Television Base also has a number of film and television production units, and the temporary auditions of Caster Pictures were arranged in one of the studios.

When Luo Kai and Li Mengru arrived, it was not yet 10 o'clock.

"Mr. Li!"

They were greeted by a middle-aged man with a talented temperament, Sun Hongwei, producer of Custer Pictures.

“Welcome…”

After greeting Li Mengru, his eyes fell on Luo Kai: "Compared to this person, I must be Teacher Luo Kailuo, I have been admired for a long time!"

Sun Hongwei extended his hand to Luo Kai enthusiastically: "I am your fan!"

Although he knew he was saying polite words, this attitude was still very comfortable. Luo Kai smiled and shook hands with him: "I dare not be a polite, Manager Sun is too polite."

Sun Hongwei said: "Let's talk inside."

Under his leadership, the group entered the studio.

There are many studios in the Yanjing Film and Television Base, mainly used to shoot indoor scenes. Nowadays, film and television drama production is becoming more and more professional, and outsourcing of detailed division of labor has become the mainstream.

There is a saying in the circle that as long as you have enough money, even if you know nothing about this industry, buying a script to pull up a team is simple. You can entrust others to handle all aspects of shooting, production, post-production, publicity, and release.

Of course, people who really do this often lose their gratitude, and the water in this industry is deep!

As Li Mengru said before, Luo Kai was not the only choice for Caster Pictures. When they entered the studio, someone was auditioning.

According to the normal audition procedures, this should not happen. Usually, one after another is taken after the audition. It is not said that the auditionee can still see others auditioning for the same role.

But Custer Pictures obviously burned her butt and didn't care about any program. The director sat next to the camera, staring at the singer sitting on the speaker in front of him with a serious expression.

"That's our director Zhou Han..."

Sun Hongwei lowered his voice and said to Luo Kai and the other two: "This guy will finish the trial soon, please wait for a moment."

Luo Kai and Li Mengru nodded and stood tactfully on the corner.

The singer was holding a guitar and singing a folk song. His playing and singing skills were pretty good, but he was obviously a little nervous in the spotlight and in front of the camera, and he actually played a few wrong notes.

Moreover, he looked at the camera unconsciously several times, obviously lacking experience in acting.

This is a common mistake made by amateur actors.

"He is Liu Xiaoxiao, a folk singer, and has released an album..."

Zhang Bo recognized the other party and whispered to Luo Kai: "I have heard several of his songs."

Luo Kai nodded.

He is not optimistic about the competitor.

"Click!"

Director Zhou Hanzhou was very dissatisfied with Liu Xiaoxiao's performance and shouted to stop: "Just come here."

Liu Xiaoxiao also knew that he was not doing well, so he scratched his head and stood up, looking at a loss.

A person who looked like an assistant quickly went over and took him aside.

Everyone knows that Liu Xiaoxiao must be out of luck.

Zhou Han ignored him and turned around and asked the assistant beside him: "Is there anyone else?"

The assistant hesitated for a moment and said, "There should be one more person, I..."

"Here's here!"

Sun Hongwei hurried over and said, "Teacher Luo Kai is here."

Zhou Han waved his hand: "Then please invite him over."

This director, who is in his thirties and is considered a young and strong man, looks very bad. There is a big blister on the corners of his mouth. It is estimated that he has become very angry these days.

In fact, it is easy to understand. Any director will be very annoyed if such a problem occurs. Re-shooting is easy, but it is undoubtedly a very troublesome thing to involve important roles.

Luo Kai walked over calmly.

The Liu Xiaoxiao was about to leave before, but when he heard Luo Kai's name, he stayed again.
