In fact, Wang Yan quite understood Xiaopang's decision to terminate his contract with Zhongtian Company. Although it was Aunt Qiongyao who supported Fan Xiaopang and made her famous overnight. But Zhongtian Company did treat her badly. If it were herself, Wang Yan would probably seek to terminate the contract.
She and Fan Xiaopang are fellow villagers. They both come from ordinary families. They have been practicing arts since childhood, and their purpose is nothing more than to make their lives better in the future.
She is lucky to have found a rich husband. Although her husband is older, the old man knows how to care for others. Of course, the most important thing is to have money, which not only allows her to have enough food and clothing, but also allows her to enjoy the best life.
As for Xiaopang, now that he is famous, he wants to make more money and pursue a better life, which is understandable. That's why she was so enthusiastic about bringing Fan Xiaopang and Li Tang together, because in her eyes Li Tang was a good person with a bright future and seemingly good family conditions.
Li Tang would definitely not call Xiaopang in front of Wang Yan, so he went back to the room to make a call on the pretext that his phone was out of battery, and took a bag of pistachios with him before leaving.
When he returned to the hotel room, he thought carefully and took out his cell phone to dial Xiaopang's number.
Usually when the two of them talk, Xiaopang takes the initiative to call. Xiaopang was quite surprised to receive a call from Li Tang.
"Teacher Li, why did you call me when you have time? Is there something wrong?"
"Well, something happened."
"What's going on? Are you trying to drive me away again?"
Xiaopang's voice was slightly disappointed.
"No, I'm telling you something serious..."
So he told Xiaopang about the drama "Li Wei Becomes an Official", and finally said specifically: "I don't know whether the heroine has been decided yet, so I just called you first to ask for your opinion. Opinion……"
Before he finished speaking, Xiaopang said excitedly: "Of course I am willing, she is the number one female!"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't get excited first. What I mean is that you don't have too high hopes. In case the heroine has been decided, I still have to ask the producer, even if it hasn't been decided yet. , we still have to say whether it can work out."
"I know, I know, even if there is only 1% hope, I will try. Thank you, Teacher Li!"
At the end, Xiaopang actually thanked him sincerely.
"Okay, don't worry. I'll go over and ask you right away. Just look at this."
"Well, I'll wait for your call."
After hanging up the phone, Li Tang actually felt a little worried about gain and loss. He could tell that Xiaopang was eager for this role. If he really helped her get it, would she tell him: The little girl has no other reward, only the posture of Puliu... Bah, it should be lively and fragrant. The body is right.
But in this case, wouldn't it become a transaction? He didn't like this feeling very much.
But what if Jiang Xuerou says: Sorry, Teacher Li Tang, we have someone chosen for this heroine. Or say: Sorry, Mr. Li Tang, we don’t think Fan Binbin is suitable for this role.
He didn't even know how to open his mouth to talk about this to Xiaopang. He imagined Xiaopang's extremely disappointed expression with tears in his eyes.
But he immediately shook his head, patted his head, and said to himself: "What are you thinking about? There are so many ifs. It all depends on Xiaopang's luck."
In order to be serious, Li Tang made a special call to Jiang Xuerou's assistant before going out, and only visited after receiving a positive reply.
Jiang Xuerou lived in a suite on the top floor. Li Tang knocked on the door. He originally thought that the person who opened the door would be Jiang Xuerou's assistant, but unexpectedly it was an elegant middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand with a smile on his face and said, "Teacher Li Tang, nice to meet you!"
"Nice to meet you! Um, may I ask who you are..."
Li Tang hurriedly shook hands with him, feeling a little unsure for a moment.
Fortunately, Jiang Xuerou immediately appeared at the door and introduced with a smile: "This is my husband, Zhou Ping."
"Oh, hello, Mr. Zhou!"
Li Tang suddenly realized, thinking about it, how else could a strange man appear in Jiang Xuerou's room.
"Teacher Li Tang, please come in."
After entering and taking a seat, Jiang Xuerou brought a cup of steaming coffee. It seemed that they were also very polite. What Li Tang asked for on the first day he came to the set was coffee, and they had already prepared it in advance.
Li Tang didn't know that Zhou Ping was here. While raising his buttocks to thank him, he also apologized: "Mr. Zhou, Sister Xuerou, I'm sorry to bother you."
"It's okay, my husband happens to be in Shanghai for business, so he stopped by to visit the class." Jiang Xuerou said with a smile.
She looked at Zhou Ping tenderly, and it was obvious that the couple were currently in a good relationship.
"Mr. Zhou, you are very busy!"
After all, it was the first time for Li Tang to meet Zhou Ping. He didn't want to be too direct, so he greeted Zhou Ping first.
Zhou Ping said seriously: "Fortunately, the main reason is that several projects are being prepared, and all aspects of the relationship have to be moved."
Zhou Ping's words just brought up the topic that Li Tang wanted to talk about. He glanced at Jiang Xuerou, who was sitting opposite, and said tentatively: "I heard that the drama "Li Wei Becomes an Official" is recruiting actors. Is it for publicity? ?”
Jiang Xuerou thought Li Tang was asking for Xu Guangtou, so she hurriedly said: "It's propaganda."
As he said that, he got up and walked to the desk, took a piece of paper and handed it to him.
Hearing that it was propaganda, Li Tang's heart suddenly went cold. He took it and looked at it, and saw the words "The original cast of "Yongzheng Dynasty" are collaborating again, and the male and female protagonists of "Li Wei is the Official" are being recruited online." title.
Then the following is a general introduction to the drama "Li Wei Becomes an Official". The introduction is just a comparison with the popular "Yongzheng Dynasty" to highlight the characteristics of "Li Wei Becomes an Official" as a comedy. Finally, there are the conditions for recruiting male and female protagonists:
Li Wei: Flexible, clever, with both good and evil temperament, Beijing accent, good dialogue skills, aged between 18-30 years old;
Except for the Beijing accent, everything else matches Xu Guangtou quite well.
Yue Siying: Bookish, dressed as a man or a woman, with a foundation in dance or martial arts, aged between 16 and 25 years old.
Compared with Fan Xiaopang, the above conditions may not be as bookish as he is not very educated after all. The costume is suitable for men and women. As for the basics of dance or martial arts, it is obvious that there are fighting scenes, but Li Tang is not worried. After all, in "Little Li Flying Knives", Xiao Pang did a good job in the fighting scenes. .
It's just a pity...
Before he could sigh secretly, he heard Jiang Xueju say: "Teacher Li Tang, Li Wei's candidate must be Teacher Xu Zheng, and this will not change. In addition, publicity is one thing. In fact, we do want to recruit women online. The protagonist’s thoughts.”
When Li Tang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "So the choice for the heroine has not been decided yet?"
Hey, these words made Jiang Xuerou and Zhou Ping stunned for a moment. At first, the couple thought that Li Tang knew about the announcement about recruiting actors and passed the news to Xu Baldy, who then asked Baldy Xu through him. After all, they have only reached a verbal agreement with Xu Guangtou and have not yet formally signed a contract.
The couple made eye contact with each other, and Jiang Xuerou mused: "There are currently several candidates. Our idea is to expand the scope a little bit, hoping to find the most suitable candidate."
This is very flexible. There are already candidates, and they must have been recommended by others or selected. As for expanding the scope, there is obviously room for expansion.
Of course Li Tang could hear the implication, but he breathed a sigh of relief. The best result is nothing more than fair competition. If Xiaopang can't compare with others, then there is nothing to say; if others have a stronger background and even bring money to join the group, Then there is nothing to say, why do we have no resources?
So he said with a relaxed expression: "Actually, I came here today just to recommend a candidate. I just saw the recruitment conditions and I think she should be quite suitable."
The couple's eyes met again, revealing their true intentions.
Jiang Xuerou smiled and said: "It would be best if Teacher Li Tang could recommend a candidate. I wonder who this person is..."
As for the heroine, I can’t recommend a cat or a dog that I’ve never even heard of.
Li Tang simply said: "Oh, it's Fan Binbin, the golden lock in "Huan Zhuge Ge", and she played Myolie in "Little Li Fei Dao"."
Hearing Fan Binbin's name, Jiang Xuerou's expression suddenly became serious. She opened her mouth but did not say anything. She turned to Zhou Ping, who was in deep thought. After making eye contact, she reluctantly smiled at Li Tang and said, "Miss Fan is not bad. , well-known, and good at acting. However, we still have to respect the director’s opinion when deciding on the final candidate.”
have to!
Li Tang's heart felt cold again. Is this a tactful rejection?
He could only smile and say: "It should be, the director always has the final say!"
Having said that, there is nothing more to say. In the final analysis, I was too presumptuous and underestimated Aunt Qiongyao's influence in Wanwan. When I saw the change in Jiang Xuerou's face just now, it was obvious that she was worried about Aunt Qiong Yao's reaction.
With that, he was about to stand up and say goodbye when he heard Zhou Ping speak up: "Teacher Li Tang, don't worry, we said we should respect the director's opinions, which is definitely not an excuse. Miss Fan is a good candidate. If possible, we still hope Able to work together.”
Damn it!
Li Tang couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart, and thought to himself: What happened to this male and female today? It made him feel so moody. If his mental endurance was not that good, he might have suffered a heart attack directly.
He could see that Zhou Ping's attitude was sincere, even ignoring the hints in Jiang Xuerou's eyes.
Li Tang was not pretentious at the moment. He stood up and extended his hand to Zhou Ping and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for giving us this opportunity. Thank you!"
Zhou Ping laughed, held his hand and said, "Teacher Li Tang is out for a visit. If you have time, let's get together in the evening."
Li Tang glanced at Jiang Xuerou next to him, and said with a troubled expression: "A good couple is rare... Well, I won't bother you."
Zhou Ping smiled and waved his hands: "Haha, don't disturb me. The director, Mr. Zhao and Shui Ling will be with us tonight. It just so happens that today, Teacher Li Tang, if you don't come over, Xuerou and I were planning to come and invite you. .”
Li Tang hurriedly said: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it, thank you Mr. Zhou! Thank you Sister Xuerou!"
After Li Tang said goodbye and went out, Jiang Xuerou frowned and said to Zhou Ping: "Old Zhou, you have to think about it, Teacher Qiong Yao..."
Zhou Ping waved his hand domineeringly and said: "You don't have to worry too much about Teacher Qiong Yao. This time we used Shui Ling and Wang Yan. Although it was Zhongtian Company who helped us, we also provided resources. We can cooperate with each other and win." ! Besides, Fan Binbin has terminated his contract with Zhongtian Company. Zhongtian Company can’t still block him, can he? Don’t forget, this is the mainland, not Wanwan! Don’t offend other people inadvertently just to worry about someone, it’s not worth the gain. Since it was recommended by Li Tang, we should treat everyone equally, and at least give Li Tang an explanation."
Second update, what the hell, shamelessly ask for a vote, the results are too ugly.
