"Well, I understand, let's do this for now."
Zheng Rongrong said lightly and hung up the phone.
Turning around, she said to the person next to her, "Sorry, Director Zhou, if Shen Huan doesn't want to, how about we change another actor? I told you before, whether it's Cai Changyi, Lu Jiufeng, or Duan Yi , everything is fine! We at Shanhai Network can invite them over."
The three she mentioned are well-known niche actors in the television industry. They are very famous and can guarantee ratings.
Zheng Rongrong worked hard for Lan Xin's script.
No, it should be said that from the beginning of the planning, the eldest princess had the idea of giving it a try.
Lan Xin's scripts are not easy to come by. The 43-year-old top-notch screenwriter is best at detective stories.
Whether it's modern or ancient, whether it's a TV series or a movie, the scripts she writes have no repetitive stories and are all wonderful.
Therefore, Lan Xin's scripts are not only expensive, but also very popular.
Zheng Rongrong has been looking for someone to contact Lan Xin since last year, and it took a long time to get "Young Di Renjie", which Lan Xin wrote for two years.
Since it is a large-scale production, we must choose the best from everything.
After you get a good script, you need to choose a good helmsman.
It happened that the popular "Water Margin" during the Spring Festival came into Zheng Rongrong's eyes.
Zhou Pu has always been a top-notch TV drama director, and now he is at the peak of his creation. He is certainly worthy of this large-scale production by Shanhai.com.
However, Zhou Pu is not that easy to handle.
Shanhai.com is an outsider in the television industry. Even if it has produced dozens of online dramas, in Zhou Pu's opinion, it is not considered professional.
If he wants to cooperate with such a company, even if they pay a lot of money and give him a lot of production fees, Zhou Pu has to deal with it carefully.
That is to say, Lan Xin's script attracted him and made him think the drama was interesting, so he was negotiating with Shanhai.com.
To say that the sincerity of Shanhai.com is really enough, the president Zheng Rongrong personally contacted him from the beginning. The daughter of the richest man came to talk in person, and Zhou Pu was also satisfied.
But making a TV series doesn’t just require sincerity and money.
Zhou Pu happens to understand that now that he has filmed "Water Margin", the industry regards him as a super giant director of TV series. But the more this happens, the less he can be careless and make a bad TV series, which will bring him down. This brand.
Shanhai.com is rich, Zhou Pu knows this.
So he doesn't have to worry about the people behind the scenes, the changes in various scenes, the various equipment configurations and living conditions.
The only thing to consider is the actors.
The Green Leaf actors and the main supporting roles were all easy to choose, and the heroine was not that difficult. However, the young man Di Renjie who had to take the lead alone needed the best actor.
In fact, if you want to make a TV series, there is no need for Zheng Rongrong to say anything about using money to hit people. With Zhou Pu's brand, he can invite celebrities in the film industry, let alone TV series superstars and niche actors.
But after Zhou Pu thought about it for a long time, he still felt that this time he couldn't fall into the trap, and he must choose the best one, instead of choosing among several similar actors.
First of all, the young Di Renjie should not be too old. The most suitable age is between 18 and 20 years old, or even look younger.
Why
This is experience.
In ancient times, young men usually refer to those around 18 years old. If they were a little older, they would either rely on scholars or take exams, and would not have time to wander around.
Di Renjie started taking the imperial examinations to become a waiter when he was in his 20s, and this series of stories happened when he was traveling around as a teenager, so if you take a Di Renjie who is in his twenties, it would seem a bit fake.
Therefore, actors over the age of 25 cannot be used.
Cai Changyi, Lu Jiufeng and Qiu Tianfu, three popular young men in the powerful group, cannot be used.
The most suitable Leng Jian is 20 years old, but his acting skills are really worrying. He is absolutely not qualified to play this important minister who is very smart in history.
Leng Jian can still play some roles that don't require any acting skills and just focus on being cool.
Then the second point is that since Shanhai.com has made such a big move, it cannot be filmed as a normal TV series, but simply as a TV movie.
This is Zhou Pu's ambition. He believes that if Zheng Rongrong is really ambitious and courageous, she will definitely agree with his idea.
Since it is a TV movie, it goes without saying that the production is exquisite, and the protagonist's acting skills and various configurations must also be suitable.
The third point is that Zhou Pu used so many actors and felt that they were a bit too familiar and difficult to inspire new creative inspiration.
This time he wanted to use a newcomer who was not so familiar.
But at the same time, it is impossible for Zhou Pu to use a complete newcomer, that is, he will be irresponsible for other people's TV series.
Those TV stations that spend huge sums of money to buy the right to broadcast the show are not fools. Can they pay real money for any newcomer who comes to play the show
Obviously not.
So when these several conditions were combined, Zhou Pu immediately thought of Shen Huan.
In addition to being very good at writing songs, Teacher Lu Xiaofeng is also a serious movie actor!
I have also read his "Love Letter". Although it is a bit green, the pure feeling is very good and special enough, which is exactly in line with the artistic conception of "Love Letter".
Besides, Shen Huan is famous enough.
In addition to being a high-profile newcomer to the film industry, he is also a well-known number one in the world of songwriting and composing. Recently, he has also made a splash in Yan Wan.
He was even able to participate in a super difficult math problem a few days ago. His paper was published in a world-class professional magazine, and it is no exaggeration to call him a top scholar!
Among young people of the same generation, no one is more popular and topical than him.
Besides, good math ability means strong logical ability.
Strong logical ability means that reasoning will be very powerful.
This is the basis for Di Renjie's decision!
You know, Detective Di Renjie is not a title that is only available now. When Di Guo was a young man in Dali Temple, he handled thousands of cases involving more than 17,000 people a year, and there was not a single unjust, false or wrong case, which is a miracle!
Isn't such a person an expert in logical reasoning
So an actor like Shen Huan happens to be the best candidate for Young Dee Renjie!
Therefore, Zhou Pu's first requirement when taking over the TV series task was that it was best for Shen Huan to star.
How powerful and skillful is the eldest princess
After hearing Zhou Pu's request, she didn't dare to agree to it at all, so she just said she would ask.
She understood that for a genius with status like Shen Huan, even if he didn't have much money, money couldn't solve the problem at all.
To a certain extent, Shen Huan was already on an equal footing with her.
The answer Cui Zhong brought back was also what Zheng Rongrong expected.
But in Zhou Pu's view, this is a huge regret.
"I still say that, no matter in terms of temperament, acting skills, ability, popularity, etc., Shen Huan is definitely the best candidate. I hope you will try harder. If it doesn't work, I will go to the actors I have worked with before. . But I think the effect would be much worse than if it were performed by Shen Huan."
When leaving Zheng Rongrong's office, Zhou Pu left these words.
Zheng Rongrong thought alone for about fifteen minutes before calling Cui Zhong in who was waiting outside.
"President."
Feeling that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Cui Zhong greeted carefully.
"You said before that Shen Huan was a little interested, but couldn't figure out what he meant..." Zheng Rongrong said lightly, "Now repeat the conversation to me, and be more careful."
"yes!"
Cui Zhong quickly repeated the conversation just now, and finally said: "I have been thinking about it for a while, do you think Shen Huan is playing hard to get? He is very interested, but wants better conditions, so Did you just hang up the phone?"
"What does he want?" Zheng Rongrong asked calmly.
"I don't know either." Cui Zhong said distressedly, "Maybe it's fame? Maybe it's money?"
Zheng Rongrong snorted coldly, "The amount he donated for the entire "Love of My Life" album has already exceeded 50 million. For a 16-year-old boy who can donate so much, do you think he regards money as his life?"
Cui Zhong smiled, "What about fame?"
"Are you stupid?" Zheng Rongrong was a little impatient, "Although there is not much difference in fame and even salary between film students and TV drama students, they are obviously much higher in terms of celebrity status! Both Shen Huan starred in "Love Letter", a TV series, no matter how good it is, can it bring him greater fame and prestige?"
"Then CEO, what do you think he means?" Cui Zhongqian said with a smile.
"I don't know either. Genius's ideas are always difficult to understand." Zheng Rongrong pondered, "But there is some truth in what you said. His willingness to ask a few questions seriously also shows that he has some intentions."
After a pause, she added, "In this case, if you ask again, we can agree to him no matter what the conditions are. As long as he comes, everything will be easy to discuss."
Cui Zhong felt that his forehead was sweating, "President, what if he offers 100 million, do we have to invite him?"
Zheng Rongrong glared at him with contempt, "Can't I afford 100 million? But do you think Shen Huan is the kind of person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat, and doesn't know how to measure? I think he pays more attention to other things, you tell me No matter what the problem is, he can talk it over and we are very sincere!"
"I understand!" Cui Zhong was also smart, "I will book a ticket to Lin'an immediately and tell him in person so that he will not hang up the phone without telling me."
Zheng Rongrong nodded with satisfaction.
Cui Zhong's ability is definitely not the best, but his attitude and loyalty are no problem.
It takes an old man like this to feel more at ease when using it.

Today I will start to make up for the outstanding rewards from the hall leaders!
