Chapter 104 Having a Reliable Teammate Is Like a Spring Breeze

The three of them walked along the side door and just took two steps towards the hall.

The casting director held his stomach and said, "Director Fang, Teacher Yin, I'm going to the bathroom, you go first."

After that, he held his stomach and rushed to the bathroom.

The two looked at his back, turned around and continued to walk forward. Just as they reached the entrance of the hall.

They saw a young man coming down the stairs in the distance.

Two people on the chairs in the hall also stood up and walked forward.

Fang Rong and Yin Shaorong recognized at a glance that it was Chen Xiao who came down from upstairs, and it was Cong Gongming who just stood up from the wooden chair.

The two stopped, opened their mouths slightly, and stared forward in a daze.

Fang Rong had seen a lot, so it was okay.

Yin Shaorong's brain was in a mess, and he instantly suspected that he had seen it wrong, and raised his hand to rub his eyes.

That's right, that person was Chen Xiao, who was very popular in the film and television industry and on the Internet.

The organ must be on the second floor.

No way?

Senior Cong was on the first floor, but Director Chen came down from the second floor.

No way?

His eyes were filled with shock and disbelief, and he murmured, "Was it Director Chen who played the piano just now?"

Fang Rong nodded, "It should be."

"Ah? I am dreaming, or you can pinch me."

As soon as Yin Shaorong said this, he felt the flesh on his arm being twisted hard, and a sharp pain came.

He quickly retreated to the side, "Are you really pinching me?"

"I also suspect that I am dreaming, so I will pinch it as you said to see if it hurts."

Yin Shaorong snorted helplessly.

Then pinch yourself.

However, Fang Rong is quite familiar with him, and he will not be angry about this matter. It is just a joke between friends.

Seeing that the three of them were chatting happily, they simply decided to wait for a while and not interrupt them.

Yin Shaorong tilted his head and asked, "How come your Director Chen can play the organ? Even if you slap me, I will doubt whether I am dreaming."

"I have doubted my life. Later, I saw a child who was at the top of his class on the Internet. He was proficient in oil painting, golf, chess, and piano at the age of five or six, and he also won awards. I began to accept the fact that I came to Earth to be an NPC. Being an NPC is also very happy. Don't doubt yourself."

Yin Shaorong didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

As expected of Director Fang, he has a really good mentality.

He can make accepting mediocrity sound so trendy.

However, they are not mediocre either.

It's just that they look a little ordinary in contrast to people like Chen Xiao.

He sighed and said, "I have also seen that video. I didn't expect to see a living one."

...

At the same time, opposite the "living" Chen Xiao, Cong Gongming was filled with mixed feelings.

Five seconds after the music started, the anger in his heart was extinguished.

What replaced it was admiration.

When the music ended, his thoughts changed completely.

Ask him for advice!

Although Chen Xiao is younger than himself, in front of art, face is not worth mentioning.

He said frankly: "Sorry, Director Chen, I was rude just now. Can you give me some advice?"

Chen Xiao also reflected on it when he went upstairs.

When he refused, he didn't seem to say anything wrong.

But he shouldn't have answered the assistant in front of Cong Gongming and said that he would take over.

Probably because a lot of musical instrument knowledge rushed into his mind at that time, his brain flexibility dropped sharply, and his emotional intelligence was severely suppressed.

In the future, I will never open the system when talking to others!

He said with guilt: "Teacher Cong, I'm sorry for blaming me just now. I really don't deserve the word "instruction". If I have to say, in addition to practicing more, there is another small problem."

"Please speak."

"You may go to the hospital to check the muscle and joint problems, from the chest, back to the wrist. I always feel that your notes are not transitioning smoothly. It's not just a problem of proficiency. It may be a problem with the muscles or joints that cause hand strength."

Cong Gongming nodded half-doubtfully.

He felt that there was nothing wrong with his arm.

But Chen Xiao's musical attainments seemed to be better than his, and perhaps he was more sensitive to the cause of the problem.

Then, as he said, go to the hospital.

"Okay, thank you Director Chen, I'll go check it out. If that's the case, I'll definitely come to thank you in the future."

The two chatted for a few more words, and footsteps came from the side.

Chen Xiao turned around and saw that the people coming were Fang Rong, the casting director, and an unfamiliar man.

The man smiled and greeted them, "Hello Director Chen, I'm Yin Shaorong, the pianist. Senior Cong, long time no see."

After everyone exchanged pleasantries.

Yin Shaorong looked at Chen Xiao, his eyes full of expectation.

"Director Chen, is your soundtrack team still short of people? If possible, can I do my part?"

Chen Xiao looked at the sound effects assistant.

The sound effects assistant nodded quickly, "We're short of people! We're short of pianists!"

He invited several pianists, but they all felt that their status was too marginal and they couldn't even get a name, so they all refused.

He wanted to use the alternative plan and look for someone among performers with a slightly lower level, which would surely attract a lot of responses.

And the person in front of him is a famous pianist!

Choose him, it's him!

Chen Xiao is of course willing to invite outstanding performers to join.

So the matter was settled.

The sound assistant and Yin Shaorong left first to discuss the remuneration.

After chatting with him for a few words, Cong Gongming also left the concert hall and drove straight to the hospital.

In the hall of the concert hall, only Chen Xiao, Fang Rong, and the casting director were left.

"Director Chen, we came to talk to you about the casting."

Chen Xiao looked at the young casting director who looked a bit like Wang Rui, and suddenly thought of the Teletubbies-like robot.

I felt a little scared.

This morning, from the robot design to the organ player, things didn't go well.

The casting director can't come up with another crotch-stretching plan for him.

"Okay, there's a conference room upstairs, let's go up and talk."

The three of them went upstairs, entered the conference room, sat around the table, and turned on the projector.

Casting director Huang Peng took out his laptop from his bag, connected it to the projector, and opened a file.

Chen Xiao looked at the picture on the wall.

This is a mind map.

Behind each character's name are the names of multiple actors.

Behind each actor is written their personal profile, along with three or four film and television clips of them playing similar roles.

Chen Xiao's eyes lit up.

There were several familiar names in the casting process. When he was filming the first two movies, he watched their acting scenes through binge-watching.

A choice like Cooper really fits his temperament.

The most important thing is that Huang Peng not only listed the list, but also attached film and television clips in which the actor had played similar roles.

This is very convenient.

It seems that Huang Peng is very reliable.

"Let's watch the videos one by one." Chen Xiao pointed at the projection.

Two hours passed.

Watch all the clips.

Chen Xiao nodded, basically no problem.

He looked at the casting director and said, "There is an actor who is also very suitable to play Cooper's eldest son. His stage name is Tiancha, let's add him to the list."

"Okay! Sorry, I didn't find everything." Huang Peng smiled awkwardly.

Fang Rong also spoke and recommended several candidates.

At almost twelve o'clock, the candidates for each role were decided directly.

Chen Xiao let out a long sigh of relief and felt very satisfied.

This is the easiest time choosing candidates since making three movies.

In the past, I had to rely on myself to cast a large number of films and select people. This time, it was comfortable to have a reliable casting director.

Chen Xiao looked at Huang Peng, who was making additions to the document.

"Director Huang, how did you complete this document in five days?"

Huang Peng scratched his head and smiled honestly, "It takes three days to understand the script, and another two days to go to my actor library to find the right person. The actor library is where I watch a lot of movies before, classify them by role, and list the actors who have played this role. Put all the film and television clips in that folder so it will be easier to find people later.”
