Chapter 67: Are you doing CG or making a movie?
As Lao Song said, "Titanic" has very high requirements for actors.
Especially the appearance and temperament.
It is not easy to find so many suitable actors because it requires both the nobility and elegance of the upper class and the unrestrained wildness of the lower-class workers .
Even though Chen Lin had been keeping an eye on actors in this field for a long time, he still hadn't found many suitable candidates.
Seeing that the employees were getting busy, Chen Lin in the office also picked up his mobile phone and dialed Su Peng's number.
"Hey, Mr. Chen, how come you have time to call me today?"
At the B station branch company, Su Peng answered the phone in surprise.
The boss of Honghuang Studio usually doesn't come to visit unless there is something important. So it must be something serious since he called in person.
"Manager Su, I want to ask you something. How many contracted artists do you have under you? Including anchors." Chen Lin said straight to the point.
"I'm talking about an artist under me. Why does Mr. Chen suddenly ask this?" Su Peng was a little puzzled.
"It's not a big deal. We at Honghuang are planning to shoot a new game CG movie, which will require a lot of actors."
CG movie!?
Su Peng was shocked and stood up from his seat.
"Mr. Chen, do you mean... a movie like Monster Hunter CG?"
"Almost the same, but it requires more actors, at least seven or eight leading actors and more than extras."
hiss!
Su Peng took a breath when he heard this.
Seven or eight leading actors and hundreds of extras, is this a blockbuster movie?
He thought the previous "Monster Hunter CG Movie" was outrageous enough, but he didn't expect it to be even more outrageous.
Even if he wanted to take over the business alone, he was somewhat powerless.
Thinking of this, Su Peng smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Chen, you think too highly of me. I can find extras for you, but seven or eight leading actors will be too difficult."
He knew very well that no matter what kind of movie it was, the leading role would have very strict requirements on the actor himself.
Even if he has hundreds of contracted artists under him, he cannot guarantee that he can find so many suitable people at once.
However, he was unwilling to miss this golden opportunity, and immediately said, "What kind of leading actor does Mr. Chen need? If there is a suitable one, I will try my best to pick one for you."
"That's fine, but my CG movie has very high requirements on the actors' temperament. I have to see it myself." Chen Lin thought for a while and said.
"You mean Mr. Chen wants to come to our branch to personally select people?" Su Peng's eyes lit up. "Of course, that's fine. When is Mr. Chen free? I can call people over at any time."
"3pm, I have nothing to do today, so I'll trouble you then."
"It's no trouble, no trouble. I will be waiting for you, Mr. Chen."
The two companies are not far from each other, only about 40 minutes' drive away.
I hung up the phone and looked at the time.
Su Peng immediately made another call to the people below.
"Go, gather everyone here. Honghuang is coming to select actors for the CG movie. Hurry!"
After saying that, he dropped the work at hand and left the marketing department in a hurry.
The contracted artists who received the news were also completely shocked.
"Sister Juan, did I hear correctly? Honghuang is going to start filming a CG movie again?"
"I also received the news, and someone saw Director Su seemed very anxious when he left just now."
"It is said that Boss Honghuang is coming here in person."
"If the boss of Honghuang comes here, won't that mean he's going to do a big project?"
"Let's go! Let's go first. We must not miss this opportunity again !"
In a blink of an eye, the entire artist dormitory became lively.
Regardless of gender, as long as they were contracted artists under Su Peng, they all began to prepare hurriedly.
Those who do makeup do their makeup, and those who do their hair do their hair.
Everyone is working very hard to adjust themselves and prepare to show their best side.
Even those who lived outside took taxis to the company, showing that they were very concerned.
"Family, I just received a notice that there is a movie commercial and they want us to go over for the casting. I'll just stop here for today."
In Ouyang Xiao’s live broadcast room.
Ouyang Xiao, who was driving and enjoying the scenery in "Need for Speed", also received the message and spoke quickly to the camera.
The audience, who were originally chatting, suddenly became excited when they heard this.
"Movie commercial performance? Is the host going to shoot a new movie again?"
"Can you tell me what kind of movie it is?"
"Which company filmed this? Why is there no news at all?"
"I just checked other anchors and saw that many of them suddenly went offline. Could it be because of this incident?"
"It's true. Several anchors I followed are gone!"
"Has Station B received any big movie shoot?"
The audience was shocked by this abnormal situation and kept asking questions in the comments.
But Ouyang Xiao didn't explain too much to them. He said something apologetically, then directly turned off the live broadcast, left the dormitory and rushed to the company's studio.
Along the way, she saw many colleagues who were in a hurry like her, which made her speed up her pace.
…
soon.
Come 3pm.
Chen Lin sat in a taxi and arrived at the main entrance of the B station branch building on time. He saw Su Peng waiting there at a glance.
Compared to the last time we met to discuss business, Su Peng had obviously become much rounder.
As soon as the car stopped, he came up to me with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Chen, I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."
"Manager Su, you are too polite. Let's get down to business first."
Chen Lin opened the door and got out of the car. Led by Su Peng, he walked into the company and headed towards the studio while chatting.
Soon, they passed through a dedicated passage and entered the performance room that had been prepared long ago.
Through the window, you can see a large number of people waiting outside.
"Here they come! I saw Supervisor Su coming in with someone."
"Where? Is it the boss of Honghuang?"
The waiting artists suddenly became nervous and couldn't help but look up and look inside, just like when they took the art exam after graduating from college.
Only a few people of higher status, including Ouyang Xiao, were somewhat calmer and stayed in their original positions to adjust themselves.
They knew very well that Manager Su would not make such a big fuss for ordinary commercial performances.
If you can't guess such obvious hints, then there's no point in working in this field.
"Xiaoxiao, you are the only one here who has seen the boss of Honghuang. Can you tell us what kind of person he is?"
At this moment, the anchor sitting next to Ouyang Xiao suddenly spoke, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone around.
Even the male artists cast curious glances.
"Boss Honghuang..." Ouyang Xiao recalled, "He seems to be easy to talk to and handsome, but a little serious and meticulous in his work. So my advice is that you should not try to be clever in front of him."
"Huh? You're making me even more nervous."
"I'm the same. I'm most afraid of those with stern faces."
"But I heard that the boss of Honghuang is very young, so he shouldn't be very fierce, right?"
The artists chattered, nervousness written all over their faces.
Some people even clenched their hands so tightly that sweat began to appear on their palms.
After all, these lowest-level artists don’t have much experience in large-scale commercial performances, and they are afraid that they will perform poorly and embarrass themselves in front of everyone.
Crunch——
Just then, the door to the performance room opened.
The staff member came out with the form.
