123 The Choice of Fate
June 1st, Sunday, is Children's Day, and it is also the day for the cast auditions for "Huanzhugege".
Ye Fan arrived at the hotel where the audition was held. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he was startled by the scene in front of him. He saw a long queue already forming in the corridor. There were probably dozens of people, most of them girls.
Because Ye Fan was wearing a mask and a hat, a staff member saw him and thought that Ye Fan was also here for the audition. He came up and said, "Who is that? If you want to audition, get in line. Have you brought your personal information?"
When Ye Fan heard this, he rolled his eyes and said directly without explaining much: "I was sent by another investor. I have something to do with Ms. Qiong. Please take me to see her."
After hearing this, the staff were shocked and confused. Some auditioners heard Ye Fan's words and looked over with curious eyes.
After looking Ye Fan up and down, perhaps intimidated by Ye Fan's aura, the staff member said, "Then follow me." After saying that, he led Ye Fan inside.
When he arrived at the door of the audition room, the staff asked Ye Fan to wait outside. He went in and asked, and after confirming Ye Fan's identity, he was welcomed in with a smile on his face.
Ye Fan saw Qiong Yao, director Sun Shupei, and assistant director Liu Fang were there. It seemed that these three people were casting together. After greeting the three of them, Ye Fan sat next to Qiong Yao, but did not take off his mask.
He doesn't want people to know about his relationship with the show yet.
Sun Shupei and Liu Fang knew Ye Fan's identity, smiled and nodded to Ye Fan, and started auditioning again.
When passing by the corridor, Ye Fan didn't see any familiar faces, and judging from the situation, they hadn't even arrived yet.
The girl currently auditioning is above average in appearance, but Ye Fan still doesn't recognize her, let alone her acting skills.
When Qiong Yao saw Ye Fan's arrival, she was no longer interested in auditioning. She had seen so many people in the morning, but none of them looked stunning to her, so she started chatting with Ye Fan: "Is the person who plays Er Kang coming over today?
"
Ye Fan flipped through the information on the table and said, "Yes, I just brought him here for you to meet him. He has a good image, but his acting skills are a bit poor. If you feel dissatisfied, then I will look for him."
Originally, Ye Fan didn't want to come, but in order for Leader Huang to successfully win the role of Erkang, he planned to use his investor authority.
"Since you said your image is good, it must be good. Acting skills can be learned during filming." Qiong Yao said with a smile: "Actually, I most want you to play Er Kang, why don't you think about it?"
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "I really don't have time. The album is ready and will be released soon. I have to do promotions and wait for the album to be released. I also have to film a TV series during the summer vacation."
Hearing this, Qiong Yao said disappointedly: "What a pity. Fortunately, you introduced me to one. Before, you said you didn't have time to act. Then I found Wu Qilong and Huang Haibin. One had to do military service and the other didn't have time. At that time
I’m really worried to death.”
When Ye Fan heard about this situation, he knew that history had not changed much, so Qiong Yao still found these two people. However, Fourth Master Wu might just not want to shave his head.
So Ye Fan said: "It's a blessing in disguise. Maybe they are all newcomers and have unexpected effects."
Then Qiong Yao complained to Ye Fan about the selection of other characters:
For example, for the role of Little Swallow, Qiong Yao was interested in the "Qiong Girl" Chen Derong. Qiong Yao originally wrote this character for Chen Derong, and the feeling of elegance and unparalleled beauty was originally prepared for Chen Derong.
However, the script had not yet been written at that time, and Chen Derong did set aside a long period of time. But now that the script has been written, Chen Derong has taken over the filming of the TV series "Lily in the Wind" and has no time to film it.
Later, I found Li Tingyi, but she didn't like "Huan Zhu Ge Ge". She said that she was going to Hong Kong Island to shoot a movie and TV series. If she wanted to play "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", she would be allowed to postpone the reporting.
This made Qiong Yao very angry. How could she accept this condition?
That's why she went to the mainland to do the casting herself. She had to choose a good candidate and let those who rejected her take a look.
Ye Fan heard that later Li Tingyi hinted that she was tricked by her agent because her agent was also Ruby Lin's agent, and Ruby Lin signed a full contract, but she was not.
However, Ye Fan thinks there are two possibilities. A Hong Kong movie and TV series, and a TV series co-produced by the Mainland and Taiwan. Is there any need to choose at this time?
It can only be said that all this is fate. If Li Tingyi were to play Little Swallow, it would be hard to say whether it would have the same effect as the original version.
The fifth elder brother was decided early on, and Su Youpeng was the one to play, and it was also recommended by Chen Zhipeng, who played Ertai. As for Wu Qilong, Qiong Yao probably also has a Little Tigers plot, and he was invited because he wanted to get the three members of the Little Tigers together.
Huang Ama has already decided on Zhang Guoli and the teacher Li Mingqi who will play the role of Grandma Rong. If history has not changed, it was during the filming that the actor who played the role of Grandma Rong was unwell and was not released for the role, so he was replaced by Liu Fang.
A replacement is found, and most of the remaining roles will need to be auditioned.
As they were chatting, they saw the staff member just come in and said to everyone: "There are three people outside, saying they are looking for this gentleman."
Ye Fan understood that it was Leader Huang who had arrived, but he didn't expect two more people to come. He already guessed who it was, so he said, "Let them come in first."
Qiong Yao also nodded in agreement. She was also curious about what the person recommended by Ye Fan looked like. Since Huang Xiaoming was still losing weight, Ye Fan did not show his photo to Qiong Yao.
Qiong Yao's eyes instantly lit up when she saw the three people walking into the room. The images of these three people were all very good, which surprised her.
Ye Fan saw the people coming and it was as he expected. In addition to Leader Huang, Changhua and Zhao Zhetian were also here. In their class, the three of them had the best relationship.
Huang Xiaoming has indeed lost a lot of weight, and his image looks cleaner. His skin is relatively white now, and he doesn't look as greasy as when he played Yang Guo.
Seeing the three of them greeting each other, Ye Fan didn't say much, pointed at Huang Xiaoming and said: "Aunt Qiong, this is the person I recommend to play Erkang. My name is Huang Xiaoming. Xiaoming, please introduce yourself."
"Okay, Brother Fan." After saying that, Huang Xiaoming walked to the middle and introduced himself.
Changhua and Zhao Zhetian looked envious, but when Ye Fan saw Qiong Yao's expression, he sighed at their good luck.
The original Xiao Ming was still a bit shy, but after training in "The Eighteen-Year-Old Sky" and with Ye Fan also present, he was very confident when he introduced himself. Qiong Yao and the two directors nodded repeatedly.
Huang Xiaoming was considered to be the one with the best performance among those who auditioned today. Qiong Yao whispered to Ye Fan, "This Huang Xiaoming is good. The role of Erkang can be given to him."
"Then thank you Aunt Qiong." After saying that, Ye Fan saw Zhao Zhetian looking towards him.
Knowing that Zhao Zhetian recognized him, Ye Fan glanced at her and ignored her, making Zhao Zhetian very disappointed when he saw it.
Zhao Zhetian knew that Ye Fan would come today, so he dressed up carefully and came with Huang Xiaoming. However, when he saw Ye Fan glance at him and did not show the expression she imagined, Zhao Zhetian couldn't help but doubt his own charm.
Come.
Qiong Yao looked at Changhua and the two and asked, "Are you his classmates, did you come with him today?"
Hearing Qiong Yao's question, Zhao Zhetian quickly said: "Yes, Producer Qiong, we are classmates in the same class and are both students of Beijing Film Academy. I found out today that he was coming to audition, so I came with him."
Qiong Yao smiled and said: "What about you two? I think you two have a good image. Do you have any ideas about auditioning?"
Hearing this, Changhua was still a little hesitant. He didn't really like acting in Qing palace dramas. However, Zhao Zhetian was very excited after hearing this. He pulled Changhua's hand and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, we would like to if we have the opportunity."
Audition.”
The factory flower had no choice but to follow up and said: "I also want to audition." Seeing this scene, Ye Fan knew something in his heart. It seemed that it was true that the two of them liked Zhao Zhetian in college.
Seeing Qiong Yao looking at him, Ye Fan shrugged and indicated that he had no objection and just did what Qiong Yao wanted.
This made Qiong Yao very satisfied. Ye Fan was indeed a good investor, so Qiong Yao auditioned for the two of them.
Changhua and Zhao Zhetian's performances were much more intelligent than Huang Xiaoming's. Qiong Yao and the other three kept writing on their profiles.
After the two auditioned, Qiong Yao asked them to leave first and wait for the news. Ye Fan also made a gesture to Huang Xiaoming and Chang Hua, indicating that they should leave first. He wanted to stay and listen to the opinions of Qiong Yao and others.
After leaving the hotel, Zhao Zhetian said depressedly: "I feel that Ye Fan doesn't like me very much, so he just said hello to you two and ignored me."
When Changhua and Huang Xiaoming heard this, they were very happy. They wished that Ye Fan would ignore Zhao Zhetian. If Ye Fan was interested in her, the two of them together were not enough to beat Ye Fan, so how could they pursue Zhao Zhetian?
Factory Flower had no choice but to comfort her: "After all, it's just the first time he and you have met. Xiao Ming was recommended by him. During the audition, he didn't say much, let alone us."
Huang Xiaoming also said: "Yes, Brother Fan is a very nice person. He didn't have any airs when we were filming. Although he is younger than me, he is more mature than me in his behavior and behavior. Otherwise, why would I want to call him Brother Fan? Don't
Think too much."
Hearing the comfort from the two, Zhao Zhetian felt better, but she felt that Ye Fan just didn't like her, and she couldn't explain why. Fortunately, the results of today's audition were good, and she was still happy.
On the other side, Ye Fan saw the three people leaving, so he asked: "Aunt Qiong, do you like the other two people?"
Qiong Yao nodded and said: "Both Zhao Zhetian and Changhua have very good images, and they are very recognizable. I think Zhao Zhetian is quite suitable to play Ziwei. As for Changhua, I don't think he is very interested.
If there is a suitable role for him in the future, let’s ask him about it.”
Ye Fan nodded after hearing this. Although Qiong Yao now wants Zhao Zhetian to play Ziwei, the final result should still be the same as before.
Most of the actors who played "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" were chosen by fate to be able to participate in this TV series.
If it weren't for Ye Fan's intervention, Zhang Tielin and Zhou Jie were the two characters who got their roles by picking up the slack, but they became popular because of this drama. Who can I ask to explain this?
Seeing that the matter had been settled, Ye Fan stopped staying. After greeting the three of them, he got up and left. He wanted to spend more time with Zeng Li while he had time.
After all, in June, Ye Fan has to start promoting the album, shooting album covers, running shows to promote songs, choosing songs to hit the charts, and he is busy again.
