Chapter 121 The Chosen Daughter

【Name: Hu Ge】

【Age: 20】

【Description: Time is like poetry, and years are like songs. 】

Liu Jing cursed inwardly, what a damn system, it is clearly like water, how can it be like poetry?

"Sister Cai, Liu Jing, you must be getting impatient waiting." Sun Li sat down confidently.

"No rush, we just got here too." Lao Cai responded.

Liu Jing haha, he just drank two pots of tea and waited for about an hour.

"Xiao Hu, let me introduce you. This is Ms. Cai Yinong from Sugar Man, and she wants to see you." Sun Li first introduced Old Cai.

"Hello, Mr. Cai. I'm very glad to finally meet you. I'm Hu Ge, I'm 20 years old, born in the year of the Rooster, and from Shanghai. I'm currently a freshman in the Performance Department of the Shanghai Theatre Academy." Hu Ge sat very straight, as if he was in an interview.

Liu Jing muttered, "Lin Jing was a freshman at the age of 14, and Xixi was a freshman at the age of 15. You are a freshman at the age of 20, how stupid."

"Haha, don't be restrained. We have discussed it over the phone. Just act like your usual self." Lao Cai said with a smile.

“Haha…” Hu Ge was also laughing, obviously to cooperate. It would take some time to adapt to the transition from online to offline.

"Have you had lunch? Would you like something to drink?" asked Lao Cai.

"I've eaten, just drink tea." Hu Ge came here for an interview, so he didn't dare to order anything.

"This is Liu Jing. Although he is young, he has been in the industry for ten years. He is now the martial arts director of The Book and the Sword, and we will soon be his students," Sun Li continued.

We? Liu Jing wondered, this is another actor being chosen.

"Liu Jing, the Liu Jing who won the Oscar?" Hu Ge asked hurriedly.

“Hello, my name is Liu Jing. I haven’t won an Oscar and now I’m just a martial arts director.” Liu Jing responded. He liked to exaggerate and silently put an X on it.

"For us, you have already won an Oscar. After all, you are Chinese." Hu Ge said with admiration.

Liu Jing smiled, put an X on the circle, and silently changed it into a check mark.

"You guys chat, don't worry about me." Liu Jing leaned back on the sofa. He was not the protagonist at this time.

Lao Cai was very direct. "Xiao Hu, a director from the company recommended you. After communicating with you for a while, I think you are pretty good. We at Tangren want to sign you. What do you think?"

"Mr. Cai..."

"Call me Sister Cai."

"Sister Cai, we've almost finished our conversation on the phone. Since I came here, I must have a purpose." Hu Ge said with a smile.

"Here is the contract, take a good look at it." Lao Cai took out the contract from his bag and handed it directly to Hu Ge.

"Okay." Hu Ge took it with both hands.

"Liu Jing, he knows the director of our company. The director thought Xiao Hu was good and recommended him to me. We chatted and found out... found out..." Lao Cai did not forget Liu Jing. She was thinking about Hu Ge reading the contract, and she couldn't let the conversation remain awkward, so she continued chatting with Liu Jing.

Liu Jing muttered again, Lao Cai had been prepared for this. He probably came to the theater today to investigate Hu Ge.

He heard Lao Cai asking the teacher about the conditions of several students, Hu Ge was one of them.

Liu Jing took a glance and found that the contract was not empty. There was already content in the places where the sugar man needed to fill in.

I could only take a quick glance at it because Hu Ge turned directly to the last page of the contract and signed his name.

Old Cai couldn't continue speaking and was greatly surprised. "Xiao Hu, what are you doing?"

"I have talked with Sister Cai several times, and I believe in your character. There is nothing to see." Hu Ge handed the signed contract to Old Cai.

"Congratulations, Sister Cai, for getting a great general. Are you going to treat us dinner tonight?" Liu Jing joked.

"Haha, of course I'll treat you. Xiao Hu, follow me back to the sugar man and see which role is suitable for you." Old Cai was so happy that he couldn't sit still.

Hengdian is not far from Shanghai. Old Cai was in high spirits. Before the sugar man's employees got off work, the group returned to the Little White House.

Tangren’s headquarters is located in Shanghai, but its production center is in Hengdian. Its offices, costumes, props, studios, warehouses, restaurants, and dormitories are all located here.

Sun Li took Hu Ge to put on makeup, and Lao Cai introduced Liu Jing to Tangren’s employees, including partner Li Guoli.

"I've heard a lot about you." Li Guoli greeted Liu Jing directly as soon as he saw him.

"Nice to meet you." Liu Jing also returned the greeting.

"Haha, I originally wanted to invite Yuan Bin to be the martial arts instructor. We had dinner together last month and I mentioned this. When that guy heard that you replaced him, he said nothing." Li Guoli laughed and put his arm around Liu Jing's shoulders. "Come on, I'll take you to find Chen Jingquan. Let's bury him. What kind of crap does his script look? His script is not as good as your opinion."

The two screenwriters were waiting in the office. The four of them discussed for half an hour, and someone informed Hu Ge that he had changed his clothes.

"Old Li, which role did you arrange for Hu Ge to audition?" Liu Jing and Li Guoli were familiar with each other, and it was Li Guoli who asked to call him Old Li.

"Scholar Jin Di and Yu Yutong." Old Li responded.

"Yu Yutong is handsome and a good-looking man. He is quite suitable." Liu Jing agreed. This is the second male lead, and Lao Cai thinks highly of Hu Ge.

"Maybe not." Old Li shook his head and sighed repeatedly.

Liu Jing soon understood that age is always more valuable.

Hu Ge has a long face, which looks even longer when he puts up his hair in ancient costume.

"He is not suitable for ancient costumes, especially those set in the Qing Dynasty. For dramas from other eras, he can use his hair to cover it up." Old Li made the final decision, and Old Cai could do nothing about it because the facts were before him.

Even if she forces the deal, there are still other investors.

Tangren was indeed short of money. Jingxing took 30% of the shares, and she found a few investors for the remaining 70%.

Hu Ge was not unhappy. After all, he was only a freshman and there were plenty of opportunities.

In the evening, Lao Cai treated us to mutton hotpot at Tangren Xiaobailou.

There were not many people eating, including Lao Cai, Lao Li, Sun Li, Chen Jingquan, Liu Jing and Hu Ge, and the meal turned into a script discussion meeting.

Liu Jing found it funny. He often ate shabu-shabu in Yandu, and he actually ate this thing in Hengdian. He was worried about the food in the next few days. He thought he would not eat shabu-shabu every day, after all, Lao Cai bought a lot of mutton rolls at one time.

The next day, Liu Jing was not worried at all.

There are film crews and bubbles everywhere in Hengdian. Even if there is no food, Liu Jing is happy to live here.

While he was trying to suppress his emotions, he was looking for a house and was preparing to borrow money from Zhang Min to buy one.

After a phone call, they said that they had bought five houses and let Liu Jing choose one.

Hengdian World Studios was built in 96. In order to attract more film crews to shoot here, the year before last, it waived the rental of all scenes, and its popularity gradually increased.

Last year, we integrated resources and established Hengdian Group.

More than a dozen filming bases have been built this year, surpassing other film and television cities in one fell swoop.

Liu Jing and Lao Li agreed that they were busy during the day and would work on the script at night.

So in a few days, Liu Jing collected more than 10,000 points of entertainment energy, but still some crews were unable to enter.

"In the future, come here once every one or two months." With this thought in mind, Liu Jing left Hengdian with Lao Cai.

On October 10, Liu Jing returned to Yandu.

On October 10, Liu Jing appeared on campus.

On October 10, Liu Jing took another leave, and he and Lao Cai went to the Central Academy of Drama.

On this day, Yang Mi came to the door of Class 2, Grade 1 with the gifts she had prepared long ago.

She developed a spy in Class 2 to notify her as soon as Liu Jing returned to school.

The spy was very dedicated and told her after school yesterday that Liu Jing came to school. But the spy had limited information and didn't know that her classmate had asked for leave again.

The highly anticipated recognition scene and the carefully designed dialogue ended up in vain.

Among the three major universities, Liu Jing went to Beijing Film Academy, Shanghai Theatre Academy, and finally to the Central Academy of Drama.

Liu Jing was even more disappointed with Lao Cai's casting at the Central Academy of Drama, which was not as good as that at the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

The Shanghai Theatre Academy allows you to watch the show in classrooms and rehearsal rooms, but the Central Academy of Drama does not allow that.

However, there was a teacher to coordinate with, so Lao Cai told the role to the teacher first, and then the teacher recommended some students for Lao Cai to choose.

If Mr. Cai thinks it is suitable, he can invite the student to audition.

After Liu Jing learned this, he instantly lost interest.

The student list of the Central Academy of Drama was not confidential, and Liu Jing saw it quickly, and Jing Tian was still not on it.

If you look back a few generations, you won’t find this name either.

When in Hengdian, Lao Cai treated Liu Jing to three days of hotpot.

In view of this, Liu Jing invited Lao Cai to eat at Donglaishun that night.

October 10th, this time at Beijing Film Academy.

Liu Jingben thought that he was very familiar with Beijing Film Academy and knew several students, and they could introduce his classmates.

But who knew that Lao Cai was more capable? Huang Lei, a teacher at Beijing Film Academy, was her best friend.

With my best friend around, Beijing Film Academy opened up a lot of convenience.

They directly cleared out a classroom and spread the news of the casting for "The Book and the Sword". Many people came to audition at once.

Huang Lei told everyone that only Princess Xiangxiang should be chosen, and the people crowding at the door dispersed.

Even so, dozens of students still came with the idea of giving it a try. Some students who were not in school rushed to school, more enthusiastic than attending classes, hoping to get selected.

There were four interviewers in total, producer Lao Cai, director Feng Boyuan, martial arts instructor Liu Jing and Beijing Film Academy teacher Huang Lei.

Liu Jing was a little surprised. He didn't want to be a judge at the Beijing Film Academy. After all, in the eyes of Luo Jin and others, Liu Jing was just Liu Yifei's high school classmate.

Old Cai insisted on doing so, and Liu Jing did not refuse.

Huang Lei was also surprised. He didn't pay attention to Liu Jing at first. He thought he was someone's relative and followed him to see what he was like.

Sun Li explained quietly, and Huang Lei finally understood.

There are still benefits to revealing one's identity. Huang Lei, who had just ignored him, became much more enthusiastic. Before the conversation was over, he had already invited Liu Jing to his house for dinner.

If it wasn't about drinking mutton soup and eating braised mutton, Liu Jing and Lao Cai would have agreed on the spot.

Liu Jing sat in his seat, feeling as if he was back in the casting of Tian Long. At that time, he was watching in a corner, and now he was on the stage as a judge.

"Hello, teachers. My name is Huang Shengyi. I am a student of the 01 acting class of Beijing Film Academy. I was born in 1983, am 165 cm tall and weigh 46 kg. In 2000, I participated in the Shanghai TV Host Competition and won the Best Photogenic Award and the Annual Award. I used to be the host of the Shanghai TV program "Brilliant Galaxy." A slender girl introduced herself generously in front of the stage.

This was the first student. Liu Jing’s eyes lit up. She looked pretty good, almost as good as Qianqian.

But I’m not as professional as Gao Yuanyuan. She even reported her QQ number, but I guess her QQ number is not as good-looking as Gao Yuanyuan’s.

He was familiar with this name; Sissi had mentioned it before.

Liu Jing couldn't help it, and gave today's free appraisal to this innocent-looking girl without using it yet.

[Name: Huang Shengyi]

【Age: 19】

[Explanation: A scholarly family recites the Five Classics, and is proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. How lucky are the winners in life, as they are one of the Four Little Flowers.]

Liu Jing's eyes lit up, she is the chosen girl.

This system shows that with this appearance, age, temperament, figure, and family background, a bond must be given.
