Shen Liuliu and Da Yanyan were determined not to take part in "The Pursuit of Happiness", so Zhang Tan came to talk to her. The two sat down at home, facing each other, each sitting on a chair.
Liliu's chair is a small one. Xiaobai used to sit on it, but it was later passed on to Xi'er.
Xi'er was also here at the moment. She gave up the small chair and sat on the sofa to watch the show with Xiao Bai. If necessary, she planned to persuade Liuliu to help a group of godfathers no matter how hard it was.
"This movie has great potential. It might become another phenomenal movie..." Zhang Tan persuaded Liuliu earnestly.
"..."
But Luoliu had a stern face, looked at his nose and heart, and didn't answer, as if he didn't hear anything.
Her face was full of displeasure, disapproval, and unwillingness.
Zhang Tan continued to work hard.
"It won't take up a lot of your time. I can finish filming your scenes within a limited time, try to finish it in one week, and let you play with the rest of the time, okay?"
"..."
Liuliu continued to look at his eyes, nose, and heart, as if he had entered his own realm, as if no oil or salt could enter.
"Liuliu, please say something," Zhang Tan said.
"..."
Liuliu didn't even look at him, and continued to lower her eyebrows, immersed in her own world.
Xiaobai spoke to the old man for her, urging Luoliu to give him some face.
Liuliu didn't answer and remained motionless.
"Liuliu, hiahia, please speak~" Xi'er also came to persuade Liliu.
But Liuliu still didn't answer any of the questions.
Zhang Tan was helpless. He was such a stubborn fat man. He was not strong at ordinary times, but he was very strong now.
No, it should be tenacity.
If you say I'm not a heroine, I definitely don't.
What a great thing. There were so many people in the entertainment industry vying for this role. Zhang Tan said to himself, I've even put food in your mouth, but you just don't want to open your mouth and take a bite.
"Okay then, just forget it, Liliu, if you don't want to, I won't force you -"
Before Zhang Tan finished speaking, Liliu, who was as motionless as a wooden man, suddenly laughed loudly.
"Hahaha 666 Duck, Boss Zhang, my good friend, I'm going to play -"
With smoke coming from Liuli's butt, he quickly ran away, leaving the three people in the room stunned.
Because of Shen Dayanyan's rejection, Zhang Tan and Zhang Tongshun had to find other young actors.
Zhang Tongshun was very sorry, he was very optimistic about the child Shen Liuliu. This big Yanyan has a cleverness and spirituality in her body.
It's a pity that the strong and twisted melon is not sweet, and Zhang Tongshun can't do anything about it.
He did not announce the recruitment of female protagonists, but first searched for them himself.
He has been in this industry for so many years and has his own network. After asking around, he has many candidates.
In the next few days, Zhang Tongshun was busy auditioning these young actors.
At the same time, the crew of "The Pursuit of Happyness" was quietly established.
This time the producer is Zhang Tan himself, the director is Zhang Tongshun, and the screenwriter is Zhang Tan himself.
Zhang Tan did not choose to cooperate with other film and television companies. This film was exclusively invested and produced by Little Red Horse Film and Television Company.
Many companies came to inquire about cooperation after hearing the news, but they were all declined by Zhang Tan. The reason given was that this is a low-cost literary film with a very small investment. At the same time, the market box office will not be very large. It is mainly to train himself. team of personnel.
The investment in this movie is indeed not large. The biggest expense is the actor's fee, and the biggest expense is Zhang Yuyan.
But in fact, Zhang Yuyan's salary is not high, after all, this is an investment work of his own company.
To take a step back, in the current entertainment industry, there are many actors who want to participate in Zhang Tan's works, and there are many actors who have taken a salary cut to join.
As soon as Zhang Yuyan heard that it was Zhang Tan's movie and read the script, he chose to join it without hesitation.
Reading the script of "The Pursuit of Happyness" gave him the same electric feeling as when he first watched "I Am Zhan Er".
Such a good script is impossible for Zhang Yuyan, who is a theater fanatic, to miss it, not to mention that it has been delivered to him.
He is not a fool like Shen Liuliu and Da Yanyan.
Zhang Tongshun auditioned for three days and auditioned more than a dozen young actors.
"But there is no suitable one." Zhang Tongshun had a headache, "Actually, it's not impossible to make do with it, but there are durians in front of me, so it's really hard to make do with it."
Zhang Tan smiled and said: "Liuliu, don't think about it. These days, this guy will walk around me when he sees me. He will run away when he sees me from a distance. I can't even see her."
Zhang Tongshun laughed. He didn't expect any actor to avoid Zhang Tan like this. There were so many people out there who wanted to come over to him. It's funny when you think about it.
"Take your time and do other things first." Zhang Tan said.
Zhang Tongshun was hesitant to speak, but in the end he said nothing and nodded to complete the crew first.
Back at Little Red Horse Academy, a group of children gathered in the yard. In the middle was a child named Tan Xier. She was holding a picture in her hand and laughing happily.
What makes you so happy?
Zhang Tan leaned over and saw an elegant and beautiful girl on the painting in her hand. She looked like Sailor Moon.
"Is this you? Xi'er?" Little Lizi asked curiously.
"It's me, it's me, this is me, Tan Xi'er, you see, this name is mine." Xi'er enthusiastically introduced the text introduction under the painting to everyone. It did say "Tan Xi'er". There is no doubt that it is her.
"Why don't you look like you?" Xiao Weiwei was asking.
"This is me." Xi'er said with certainty.
"You are so small, but she is so big." Xiao Youyou gestured to Xi'er, and then pointed to the beautiful girl in the painting.
This little one still calls others small.
"I am not small, I am big. I am already 10 years old today, and you still call me small, but I am big, I am a little sister~"
The Sailor Moon in the painting looks like she is in her teens. Child Tan Xier firmly believes that she is that old, so she is very happy.
After Zhang Tan understood what had happened, he didn't say anything and prepared to go home.
"Zhang Tan——"
Suddenly a greeting sounded, and Zhang Tan followed the sound and saw a silhouette standing at the second-floor window of the comic studio. It was Li Yuxiao.
Seeing Zhang Tan looking over, Li Yuxiao waved: "Come up and have a seat."
"OK."
Zhang Tan walked towards Building 2 and suddenly noticed a small figure beside him. He lowered his head and saw that it was Shi Baobao.
Shi Baobao raised his head and smiled at him: "I'm going to find my mother too."
I have to say that Shi Baobao is really handsome, even more handsome when he smiles, and he is only 6 years old.
This kid's little hands were digging and digging in his trouser pockets. It looked like he was going to dig through his trousers, and finally he took out something.
"Do you want to eat it? Boss Zhang, spicy strips."
Shi Baobao took out a pack of spicy strips and gave them to Zhang Tan.
"Do you like spicy strips?" Zhang Tan asked.
Shi Baobao nodded.
"You can eat it yourself, I won't eat it."
"Oh~"
Arriving at the music studio on the second floor, Shi Baobao sat aside eating spicy strips while Zhang Tan entered the recording studio.
Xu Qian is also there. She specializes in serving Li Yuxiao and is equivalent to Li Yuxiao's agent.
In addition, there are several recording staff who are recording new songs here today.
Li Yuxiao has started preparing for a new album.
"I just finished recording a new song you wrote today. Let me listen to it."
Li Yuxiao said and put on the headphones for Zhang Tan.
Li Yuxiao's beautiful singing voice immediately came to my ears, as if she was singing in my ears:
"Some people spend their whole lives learning
Resolve communication problems
I can do it for you
My joy and fear
I really want to translate everything into words
Take you into my heart
It's like we're separated by a layer of glass
Visible but out of reach
Although I am a few millimeters away from you
You don't know how anxious I am
Intentionally sitting back and watching
In my awkward silence
Tears are falling
i can't convey myself
Where to start
How to translate I love you
Lonely
I also want to build a bridge with you
Establish a tacit understanding
But the words don’t convey the meaning
…”
[PS: Lin Yilian's "Words Don't Express the Meaning"]
I really like Lin Yilian's "Words Don't Express My Meaning". It still has the charm of an old song. The more I listen to it, the more I feel.
