Chapter 126 Director Zhou and Liu Yifei are a perfect match. Casting for "Hearing Girl" begins
"Zhou Qing is here."
"Aunt Liu."
After chatting with Liu Yifei for a while, Liu Xiaoli also showed up, and she was still very enthusiastic towards Zhou Qing.
“When is the casting for “Hearing Girl” going to start?”
After the two sides exchanged greetings for a while, Liu Xiaoli brought up this issue, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I will start casting after I return."
Zhou Qing did not hide anything, but told the truth directly.
Anyway, the news will be announced immediately after he returns, so there is no need to hide it.
"That's pretty quick. That's good. We are all looking forward to seeing your new movie as soon as possible."
Liu Xiaoli nodded repeatedly on the side.
"When 'Hearing Girl' is released, I will go to the premiere."
Liu Yifei immediately said on the side.
"Then I would like to thank Xixi in advance for her support."
Zhou Qing responded with a smile.
"Zhou Qing, Auntie, please say one more thing. Is this movie really not suitable for Xixi?"
As Liu Xiaoli continued chatting, she was still unwilling to give up and brought up the issue again.
"mom……"
Liu Yifei was a little reluctant and pouted.
Zhou Qing came to visit the class, and she didn't want anything else utilitarian to get involved.
"Kid, I'm just chatting with you..."
Liu Xiaoli couldn't help feeling a little jealous.
Xixi was so obedient before, but now she actually talks back to me in front of others.
"It's okay Sissi."
Zhou Qing didn't take this matter to heart and answered Liu Xiaoli truthfully, "Auntie, this role is really not suitable for Xixi, and if nothing unexpected happens, I will start filming in April."
"That's it."
Liu Xiaoli has completely given up.
If filming starts in April, Sissi will definitely not be able to make it, and The Return of the Condor Heroes will most likely not be completed.
"That's a pity. Xixi doesn't have the blessing this time. But next time Zhou Qing makes a movie, you can really consider our Xixi."
Liu Xiaoli enthusiastically added some tea to Zhou Qing and asked Zhou Qing for help with a smile.
"Auntie, you don't have to tell me. If there's a suitable role, I will definitely find Xixi."
Zhou Qing nodded.
"Do you have an ideal actor for "Hearing Girl"?"
Liu Yifei suddenly spoke at this time.
"Why, Sissi, do you have anything to recommend?"
Seeing Liu Yifei like this, Zhou Qing guessed the other party's intention.
"What do you think of Chang Chang? She's the same age as me, so her age will definitely meet your requirements, and she's a great actress."
Liu Yifei really started to recommend Zhou Qing.
Liu Xiaoli on the side couldn't help but shook her head secretly in her heart.
This silly kid doesn't care at all about getting a role for himself, but he is very serious about helping others.
However, there is definitely no chance for my daughter to get this role, so if Chang Chang can get it, that would be good too.
"If I ask Chang Chang to come, won't you be jealous?"
Zhou Qing had just blurted out these words when he wanted to cover his face.
Damn, I was so careless. Liu Xiaoli is still here.
This is a big deal.
He quickly glanced at Liu Xiaoli and found that Liu Xiaoli seemed to be in a bad mood.
Zhou Qing could understand this, as this was "teasing" someone's precious daughter in front of Liu Xiaoli.
A blush appeared on Liu Yifei's cheeks, and then she observed Liu Xiaoli's reaction like a thief.
"Ahem, well, singing is pretty good. Sissi, that's a good suggestion."
Zhou Qing immediately changed the subject to cover up the slightly awkward atmosphere.
"Let me tell you, no one of your peers can match your singing skills, right?"
Liu Yifei also hurriedly agreed, but the way she nodded seemed a bit deliberate.
"She's really good at singing. That child is as good as Sissi. I even want to adopt her as my goddaughter."
Liu Xiaoli then nodded as if nothing had happened.
Several people unanimously ignored Zhou Qing's talk and regained the atmosphere.
For a while, there was constant laughter at the scene, it was so joyful.
"Director Zhou!"
"Producer Zhang!"
As expected, Zhang Jizhong showed up and greeted Zhou Qing politely.
"Director Zhou is so young, yet he has won awards in Berlin and Venice. It is really amazing and admirable."
"Every TV series produced by Producer Zhang is a big hit, and this "The Return of the Condor Heroes" will surely set off a viewership boom. Congratulations in advance."
After you praise me, I will praise you, and after I praise you, you will praise me. The main thing they do is to flatter each other commercially.
"Although Yifei is young, she is very talented and can endure hardships. She will definitely become very famous in the future."
Zhang Jizhong also did not forget to praise Liu Yifei.
After all, as long as you have eyes, you can tell that Zhou Qing and Liu Yifei must have a special relationship.
I don’t know whether the rumors that were circulated before are true or not, but the deep friendship between classmates is certain.
"I also think so."
"Haha, we think alike."
Liu Yifei smiled a little embarrassedly.
I was praised by two industry leaders in turn, in front of them, and I felt quite shy.
But soon Liu Yifei was no longer shy because Zhang Jizhong called the reporters over.
That’s right, for something like the mainland’s famous director Zhou Qing coming to visit the set, how could Zhang Jizhong, who has always been good at hype, not make a big fuss about it?
Although Zhou Qing was somewhat reluctant about this, the reporters had already arrived, so what else could he do?
I could only accept media interviews together with Zhang Jizhong.
"Director Zhou, you visited Liu Yifei on set when she was filming Chinese Paladin. You also visited her on set when you were filming La La Land. Now you're visiting her on set again when she's filming The Return of the Condor Heroes. You and Liu Yifei must have a very good relationship?"
"Yes, Xixi and I are classmates, and we have a very good relationship privately."
Zhang Jizhong glanced at the reporter with dissatisfaction. Which media is this?
Will there be an interview?
Look at what questions you are asking?
"Director Zhou, last year you and Liu Yifei were photographed behaving intimately, and some media reported that you and Liu Yifei were in a relationship. Is this true?"
"Are only couples allowed to eat and watch movies together? If that's the standard, I'm afraid I can't even count the number of couples I have on one hand."
This time, Zhou Qing finally gave a response, denying the previous scandal.
"So Director Zhou, what does your ideal partner look like? What are your criteria for choosing a spouse? Is it something like Liu Yifei?"
How could the media easily let go of this explosive topic? They kept asking Zhou Qing questions.
"Everyone, Producer Zhang asked you to come here to promote The Return of the Condor Heroes. Aren't you a little off topic?"
Zhou Qing laughed in a joking tone, and Zhang Jizhong beside him also grinned.
"Director Zhou, you visited the crew of The Return of the Condor Heroes. What do you think of this TV series that is being filmed?"
After all, they received red envelopes, so the media started to cooperate and asked questions about The Return of the Condor Heroes. "I believe that the level of producer Zhang is beyond words. The production is very sophisticated, and the costumes and props are very attentive. I believe this is a good TV series."
"Director Zhou thinks that between Liu Yifei's Little Dragon Girl and Li Ruotong's Little Dragon Girl, which one is better?"
"Each of them has their own merits. They are both excellent actors, and the Little Dragon Girls they portray have their own shining points."
He was caught by the media and asked a lot of questions, and also took photos with the main creators including Zhang Jizhong, Liu Yifei, and Huang Xiaoming.
This interview has come to an end.
This guy Zhang Jizhong really squeezed out all the value of Zhou Qing's visit to the set.
"I didn't expect Producer Zhang to call a reporter."
After Zhang Jizhong left, Liu Yifei explained to Zhou Qing apologetically.
"It's nothing, Sissi, don't take it to heart."
Zhou Qing just smiled. He really didn't care at all.
From another perspective, this wave of hype is also good for Liu Yifei, right?
It’s not like Zhang Da Huzi got a free deal.
"Mainland director Zhou Qing came to the set of The Return of the Condor Heroes in a low-key manner and had a pleasant chat with producer Zhang Jizhong. The two took a group photo together."
"After The Legend of Sword and Fairy, Director Zhou Qing visited Liu Yifei again and denied that he and Liu Yifei were in a relationship."
"Director Zhou Qing visited Liu Yifei on the set of The Return of the Condor Heroes and said that he and Liu Yifei are very good friends."
"Director Zhou Qing talked about The Return of the Condor Heroes on the spot, saying that The Return of the Condor Heroes would be a good TV series."
Zhou Qing’s current identity is indeed still very useful, and related news reports quickly spread out.
You know what, it's received quite a lot of attention.
Zhou Qing's visit to the set did contribute a lot of popularity to "The Return of the Condor Heroes".
However, many people on the Internet refuted Zhou Qing's denial that he and Liu Yifei were in a relationship.
"Is there a simple boyfriend-girlfriend relationship these days? There must be something going on between them!"
"That's right, a man and a woman went shopping, had a meal, and watched a movie. You tell me they are just classmates?"
"Director Zhou is really stubborn. What's so hard about admitting it? I support this."
"This is a match made in heaven. The man is so talented and the woman is so pretty. They are a perfect match."
"..."
Zhou Qing casually flipped through the comments online and couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.
He couldn't imagine that so many people thought that he and Liu Yifei were a good match.
This bastard has good vision!
I just don’t know whether Liu Xiaoli goes online regularly and can see these comments.
Zhou Qing couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.
"Xiao Liu!"
But I can't take care of such things now, as I have a lot of important things to do.
Zhou Qing called his assistant over and released the casting announcement for "The Hearing Girl".
"Zhou Qing Studio's main film "Hearing Girl" actor recruitment announcement is as follows:
Lu Yao (the leading female character), visually aged 18 to 21, is a college student who likes to sing, but because of her background, she has a low self-esteem and dares not open her voice in front of outsiders. She has a strong and optimistic personality.
Zhang Yang (male lead), visual age 18 to 21, a college student, Lu Yao’s classmate, sunny and handsome, willing to help others, and likes singing.
......"
"Hearing Girl" has finally started casting!
On February 2, the tranquil entertainment industry seemed to be struck by a huge rock, causing ripples one after another.
The top film project "The Hearing Girl", which has been highly anticipated in the industry since last year, finally has news.
For a moment, all the artists who had schedules were so excited that they seemed like they had been injected with chicken blood.
"It's not easy. The casting for "Hearing Girl" has finally started."
Fan Bingbing was so excited, how could he not hesitate at all?
He clicked on the notice immediately with eagerness, his face full of anticipation and ambition.
This time, she must get the heroine role no matter what.
"Female student, visual age up to 21?"
Fan Bingbing was a little excited, he felt that he completely met the requirements!
Although Fan Bingbing is 24 years old now, he has no problem playing someone three years younger than himself.
Who dares to say that they don’t look like they are 21 years old?
There must be something wrong with that eye.
She, Fan Bingbing, is absolutely more than qualified to play a college student.
"Send a copy of my resume."
Fan Bingbing immediately gave instructions to his assistant.
Then he took out his phone and called Zhou Qing.
"College Students?"
The other soldier, Li Bingbing, was dumbfounded.
She is 32 years old now and there is no way she can act.
Even if you put on makeup and try to look younger, it won’t work. It’s eye-irritating just thinking about it.
"I am destined to miss this opportunity."
Li Bingbing was so disappointed that he couldn't express it in words.
Then I thought that the bitch Fan Bingbing completely met this requirement, and I immediately felt uncomfortable.
But please don’t let Fan Bingbing get this role.
"I am now playing a college student, so this should be okay, right?"
This is how Zhang Ziyi convinced herself.
I'm only 26 years old now, what's wrong with playing a college student?
The visual upper age limit is 21. Don’t I look like a 21-year-old girl?
This role is not to be missed!
Reactions like those of Shuang Bing and Zhang Ziyi were also seen in many other actresses.
For example, Zhou Xun, who just collaborated with Zhou Qing on "La La Land".
It’s just that Zhou Xun’s reaction was not surprise but annoyance.
Because she, like Li Bingbing, is too old.
I’m already thirty-one this year.
It's really not appropriate to play a college student.
In a nutshell, the casting announcement for "The Hearing Girl" really touched the hearts of many people.
"Isn't Director Zhou looking for a female college student this time? This is our chance!"
Tang Yan, the shame of the Chinese Academy of Drama, became extremely excited. Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
The heroine of "The Hearing Girl" is a female college student. She is exactly a college student and she doesn't even need to act!
Or in other words, playing yourself.
Isn't this a huge advantage over other actors?
What’s even more reassuring is that she is now a junior in college and can go out and act!
Tang Yan didn't hesitate at all and sent his resume to Zhou Qing's studio immediately.
It wasn't just Tang Yan. Other female students like Tong Yao couldn't hold back either.
Resume after resume was continuously sent to Zhou Qing.
"I totally meet the requirements for this role, so let's try our luck!"
Shu Chang made the same decision after reading the recruitment announcement of Zhou Qing Studio.
After all, among the actresses in the entertainment industry, who wouldn’t want to play the leading role in Director Zhou’s new movie?
Shu Chang is no exception.
