Shengshi Entertainment, in Lin Zhizhi's office.
Ning Xi was discussing the script with Lin Zhizhi.
Lin Zhizhi handed a script to Ning Xi, "Ning Xi, take a look at this script."
Ning Xi glanced at it briefly, "The director is Guo Qisheng?"
She collaborated with Guo Qisheng on "Tianxia" and the cooperation was smooth and pleasant.
Lin Zhizhi nodded, "That's right, but this time the script is not for a movie, but a TV series. Although you come from a film background, I don't recommend that you only make movies and abandon TV series. Many movie stars now think that making TV series is a downgrade, but that's not the case. The current TV series market is very broad, and there is no distinction between movie stars and TV stars."
Ning Xi agreed, "I've never thought about only making movies, as long as the script is good. Even the movie queen Song Lin, who has made movies for so many years and insisted on not making TV series, ended up declining in popularity. Didn't she just take on a TV series?"
After reaching an agreement, Lin Zhizhi continued, "Guo Qisheng's script is very good. It's a very popular fantasy IP drama. It's written by a top domestic screenwriter and has a Hollywood special effects team. The actors are all big names and veteran actors in the industry. It's very suitable as your first TV series!"
Lin Zhizhi paused, then continued, "Actually, Guo Qisheng had already handed me the script a few months ago, but unfortunately you had already accepted Shen Mian's film at that time. Fortunately, their crew was still in the preparation stage at that time. Recently, the preparations have been almost completed, and the major protagonists have basically been decided."
"So, what is my role?" Ning Xi asked.
"Your character is one of the female leads. This TV series has two female leads, one good and one evil, each with her own characteristics. The popularity of the two characters in the original novel is also comparable online. To a large extent, the focus and gimmicks of this drama are also on the two female leads." Lin Zhizhi explained.
Ning Xi couldn't help but be a little surprised when she heard that.
As early as a few months ago, Guo Qisheng had handed over this book...
At that time, she was not as famous as she is now, but Guo Qisheng was so confident that he gave her the role of the female lead.
Although there are two female protagonists, judging from Sister Zhizhi’s description, this role is even more important than the single female protagonist…
Ning Xi was quite touched when she thought of Guo Qisheng's trust in her.
"Who is the other female lead?" Ning Xi asked.
"Meng Shiyi, winner of both the Palme d'Or and the Luna d'Or!" Lin Zhizhi replied.
Ning Xi held her forehead and laughed after hearing this, "Director Guo really flatters me..."
Even with her current status, she is still far behind Meng Shiyi...
Since her debut, Meng Shiyi has played the leading female role in all her films, and each one is a masterpiece. She is also a talented actress, and is considered a rare female artist in the entertainment industry with good resources and her own strength. Therefore, she won the double Best Actress award at a young age. Moreover, the Golden Palm and Golden Phoenix awards are the two most prestigious film awards in China. Her future is indeed limitless...
Thinking of being able to act with such a real talent, Ning Xi's blood immediately became even more excited.
"Sister Zhizhi, I will take the time to read this script carefully and give you a reply as soon as possible!" Ning Xi said. In fact, she had already decided in her heart that she would take this role.
It's a good opportunity to see if there are any roles suitable for the big devil to play a cameo. She has a good relationship with Guo Qisheng, and Ke Mingyu is also popular now. It should be no problem to give him a role with a small part...
