278 The crew of 'Strategy of Yanxi Palace' was established
Gao Mang's emails and phone calls came one after another, and Yang Bei's side was not idle either.
Almost at the same time that Beimang Entertainment announced the filming of "Story of Yanxi Palace", Gao Mang, Yang Bei and Zhang Chong began to receive calls from various agents one after another. They all had only one central idea, and that was to
Let Beimang Entertainment give their artists a chance to participate in this audition for "Story of Yanxi Palace".
Gao Mang casually clicked on a few emails, which contained detailed information about the artists. There were indeed many artists with good conditions, but there were also many artists who had no acting experience at all and wanted to take a share of the pie.
On the other side, Yang Bei was sitting in the office. The phone had never been disconnected since early in the morning. The callers were all people whom Yang Bei had known and had friendships with before. They called and exchanged a few words with each other.
, no matter what I said at the beginning, in the end, the topic would still come back to the audition for "Story of Yanxi Palace".
After all, they are people who have known each other before, and they have some feelings for each other. It is not easy for Yang Bei to lower his face and say some words of rejection, but some artists are really not suitable for playing palace fighting dramas at all.
"Strategy of Yanxi Palace" is what Yang Bei hopes to rely on to carve out a niche in the market of palace dramas, so it is absolutely impossible to make careless decisions about casting.
"Brother Bei, you also know me. Although I have been active in the entertainment industry as a singer from my debut to now, you know that I have always been passionate about acting. As long as you give me this chance
, I will never let you down..."
Yang Bei held the mobile phone in his right hand and put it to his ear, and rubbed circles on his temples with his left hand. Listening to the person opposite him constantly promoting himself, he just felt like he had a headache.
They clearly know that this person is just an idol with an empty appearance. Let alone having any passion for acting, he can't even do his own job of singing well.
Thinking of the time we collaborated before...
Because he was originally a member of a boy band, but later he had a conflict of interest with his agency, so Wang Jiuwei took advantage of his large fan base and resolutely chose to fight a huge lawsuit with his agency.
Finally won the lawsuit and left the company.
Because of his solo career, he also suffered a lot of infamy. At that time, Yang Bei had just become famous, and Wang Jiuwei asked someone to write a song for him, which was the first song for his comeback in the entertainment industry.
After Yang Bei finished writing, his singing was a complete mess.
Remembering that at that time Yang Bei had to sit in the recording studio every day to help him make corrections, Yang Bei felt that he had a severe headache.
"Brother Bei? Are you still listening? Why don't you reply?"
Yang Bei shook his head and came back from his memories. He sighed helplessly, trying his best to express his rejection in a tactful way.
"Oh, Jiuwei, actually this casting issue is not my decision..."
"Brother Bei, what you said is too exaggerated. How could you have no right to speak? You are the screenwriter of this show, not to mention you are a partner of Beimang Entertainment. You said you have no right to decide on a role.
, who believes it?”
Seeing that the other party refused to give in, Yang Bei had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to refuse.
"Then I won't hide it from you. Let me tell you the truth. In fact, every drama produced by Beimang Entertainment is not under my control. When Gao Mang and I founded this company, we already
All the sections have been divided. I only focus on music. As for other aspects, I still have to listen to Gao Mang..."
"Then, can't you arrange even one role? Even if it's just a smaller role, I don't care how much the role is."
There was already impatience in Wang Jiuwei's tone, and Yang Bei could tell that he didn't appreciate this thing about Wang Jiuwei the most. He could lose control of his emotions easily. Hearing Wang Jiuwei's impatient tone, Yang Bei also frowned.
brow.
"This is indeed beyond my ability. If you still want to participate in the audition, you can contact Gao Mang. As for the rest, I really can't help."
Yang Bei's tone also turned cold. He no longer had enough patience to continue dealing with this vase that had no strength at all.
Probably because he heard Yang Bei's seriousness, Wang Jiuwei did not bother Yang Bei any more.
After hanging up the phone, the text message popped in again.
Within ten minutes of just making the call, five people were sending messages to Yang Bei, wanting to talk about auditioning for "Story of Yanxi Palace". Most of the people who knew Yang Bei's mobile phone number were from the past.
People who have crossed paths.
"It's definitely not an option to continue like this..."
Yang Bei murmured to himself, and suddenly he had an idea, and then he got up and walked to Gao Mang's office.
When he opened the door and walked into the office, Gao Mang was also carefully screening the resumes submitted by the artists. After all, if he wanted to save time on casting, he needed to conduct a rough screening before the audition, and then wait until the audition.
Perform a second screening.
"I have something to trouble you with..."
Yang Bei told Gao Mang roughly what happened, and Gao Mang also understood what was going on.
No matter what, Yang Bei is still an artist in the entertainment industry. If he refuses all the people he knew before to ask for help, it will be equivalent to cutting off the connections in his circle, so these things can only be left to
Gao Mang will do it.
"Okay, it's the best way for me to handle it."
Gao Mang also nodded in agreement, and Yang Bei sent the resumes of all the artists he received to Gao Mang, who then contacted and communicated. After all, Gao Mang has also been an agent in the entertainment industry for many years.
, socializing is as simple as a daily routine for her.
…
After Gao Mang screened them one by one, he found that not all those who contacted Yang Bei were artists without potential. Two of them immediately attracted Gao Mang's attention.
One is an artist who met Yang Bei through participating in a variety show "Wonderful Life". Yang Yuhan of Spark Entertainment is also a second-tier artist in the entertainment industry.
The other one is Ma Qiang from Chenghong Entertainment. Like Yang Bei now, he is also an amphibious artist. Moreover, Ma Qiang has strong business ability. He is not only a leader in music, but also very famous and popular in the film and television circles.
At one point, he was almost able to reach the standard of a first-line artist.
After several days of communication and arrangements, Gao Mang arranged for all the talented artists to audition for some important roles, and some artists who really couldn't refuse and had decent acting skills arranged guest roles.
The audition was divided into three days in total. Because the artists' schedules were not available on the same day, we had to adjust the audition time according to everyone's schedule.
There were only three interviewers, namely Yang Bei, Gao Mang and Zhang Chong. After three days of auditions, the three people comprehensively rated and selected the most suitable artists for each role. Among them, Yang Yuhan and Ma Qiang could almost
It was said that the three of them unanimously passed with high marks.
Yang Yuhan and Ma Qiang really lived up to their reputation and performed well in the audition, which made the three of them shine.
At this point, the audition has come to an end.
The end of the audition also means that the crew of "Story of Yanxi Palace" was successfully established, and the opening ceremony was held at Hengdian Film and Television City in Jianjiang.
