To be honest, Feng Yiping was also very satisfied with Chen Ming's performance.
However, due to the fact that Chen Ming was not an internal employee of the TV station, Chen Ming was not given too much consideration when it came to casting.
but,
Now that Tang Ruobing and Zhang Aiguo reminded him, he felt that this matter could be seriously considered.
"What do you mean?"
Feng Yiping looked at the other people in the meeting.
Although most people came to listen, this did not prevent them from expressing their opinions.
soon,
Some people began to take the initiative to speak: "I have watched the short film online. Mr. Chen Ming's performance in it was very outstanding. Coupled with the audition clip that was just played, I think I can give it a try."
"This is a national propaganda video. What would Chen Ming do if it was leaked in advance?"
"For this reason, he should be involved so that he can have a sense of honor and participation and keep it secret before the promotional film is released."
"Our TV station has many outstanding young actors and we don't need an outsider."
"Mr. Chen Ming's "Chasing Dreams" has been drafted as the theme song for the promotional video. It is not considered an outsider."
"Singing is singing, acting is acting, these are two different things."
.........
Suddenly, the conference room became noisy.
Some supported Tang Ruobing's point of view, while others opposed it.
Everyone has their own reasons.
Tang Ruobing looked at the quarreling people with a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
at the moment,
The TV station's actors have all been sent out, and it would take a few days to recall them, but Chen Ming first laid out actors who could be used directly.
In order to keep up with the schedule, Chen Ming was definitely the best choice.
However, some people are very stubborn and have been arguing about the fact that Chen Ming is not an insider of the TV station.
Zhang Aiguo didn't like to argue with others, so he kept silent.
He knew that the final decision was still in Feng Yiping's hands.
Feng Yiping is the main leader responsible for this promotional video!
A few minutes later, the quarrel had not stopped.
Feng Yiping frowned slightly and raised his voice: "That's enough, stop arguing now."
for a moment,
The conference room became quiet.
After a few seconds of silence, Feng Yiping looked at a middle-aged man on his right: "Laoguan, how many days will it take at the earliest to call back the actors from our TV station from outside?"
The middle-aged man called Lao Guan, known to everyone as Guan Hongpei. At this moment, he lowered his head and glanced at the actor list in his hand. At the back of the list, the expected return time of each actor was clearly written.
After taking a rough look, Lao Guan said softly: "The fastest one will take three days. He is shooting a New Year's film that is nearing the final stage and should be back soon."
Three days!
Feng Yiping frowned slightly.
Today is already January 10th.
After a week of auditions, the Spring Festival in mid-to-late January is getting closer and closer, and there is only half a month of shooting and editing time left.
not enough!
Definitely not enough time!!
More importantly, the special episode is divided into three segments, and each segment requires an actor to star.
In addition to Chen Ming, two more actors need to be found.
When things come and go, time becomes even tighter.
Feng Yiping immediately said: "Let Chen Ming play the doctor's part. He is very familiar with the plot and does not need to be familiar with the script. Ruobing, you are responsible for connecting with Chen Ming."
"After the filming is completed, the copyright fee for "Chasing Dreams" and Chen Ming's acting fee will be settled to him."
Hearing the words,
There were no other questioning voices in the conference room.
They also realized that there was not enough time, and if they wanted to release the film during the Spring Festival, they had to hurry up.
"Lao Zhang, inform Chen Ming that we will start filming the doctor's part tomorrow."
"Laoguan, starting from tomorrow, urge the actors who are sent out to put aside unimportant things and give priority to shooting promotional videos when they come back. If they shoot well, they will get extra bonuses."
Zhang Aiguo and Guan Hongpei nodded at the same time.
"There is no doubt. Let's break up the meeting today."
Feng Yiping looked around and said nothing.
Everyone was used to it. Feng Yiping became serious and always acted vigorously and resolutely without being sloppy.
The meeting ended and everyone left in an orderly manner.
At this moment,
Feng Yiping called out to Tong Ling: "Old Tong, please wait a moment."
Tong Ling was a little surprised.
He didn't speak during the whole meeting. He thought nothing happened without him, but Feng Yiping unexpectedly stopped him.
These two people were the only ones left in the conference room.
Tong Ling also became casual and sat down next to Feng Yiping: "What's the matter with stopping me?"
“Have you finished arranging the Lunar New Year movies for the Spring Festival?”
"I've probably finished the arrangements. I'm just checking to see if there are any good new movies coming out in the future. If the quality is good, I can fine-tune the release order."
Tong Ling didn't hesitate at all.
The review department is very busy during this time!
At the end of the year, all kinds of evil directors and actors appeared, making people dazzled and exhausted both physically and mentally.
From so many reviewed works, it is not an easy task to select movies suitable for release during the Spring Festival!
Feng Yiping hesitated for a moment, then said: "Can you see if "The Tuner" can be given a second screening?"
“Second screening??”
Tong Ling's eyes widened.
It has only been more than a month since the premiere of "The Tuner" ended. How could a second screening be scheduled so soon?
Tong Ling did not ask, knowing that Feng Yiping must have something else to say.
really!
Feng Yiping then said: "This time we have accepted Chen Ming as a favor. Without him, we might not have decided on the theme song by now. Plus, asking him to star in it would be a hard job."
""The Tuner" has aroused good response, and it is also a short film starring Chen Ming. After the second screening, it will also give him some extra income."
Tong Ling frowned slightly.
He did not deny that Chen Ming actually made a great contribution to this matter.
But in this way, it seems that you are taking too much care of Chen Ming!
Logically speaking,
There is absolutely no need to be so partial to Chen Ming.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in Tong Ling's eyes: "You want to drag Chen Ming into the TV station?"
Feng Yiping nodded.
Tong Ling was quite puzzled: "But he has signed a three-year contract with Xingyu Entertainment, how can he join our TV station?"
"You don't have to bring him over now."
"Our TV station does not lack high-quality actors, but what we lack are good screenwriters. Whether it is "The Tuner" or the filming of this special episode, Chen Ming is thinking about the plot alone. What scripts will he have in the future?
If you have any difficult problems, you can discuss them with Chen Ming."
"Another point is that "The Tuner" has a good reputation. As one of the protagonists, Chen Ming can help us save a lot of money on the pre-heating of the promotional video."
Feng Yiping took all aspects into consideration.
Tong Ling thought about it seriously: "Okay, I'll go back and make arrangements."
strictly speaking,
"The Tuner" is just a short film. Even if it is scheduled for a second screening, it will not take up too many theater resources.
the next day.
Many people have discovered that there is an additional short movie on the app for purchasing movie tickets.
"The Tuner" will have its second screening on January 20th.
The second screening period will be one month, and the screening scope will still be in the original ten cities.
the other side,
Chen Ming is still busy preparing for the Guofeng Hall.
