In the conference room of Hunan Television Station.
As this was a close collaboration between the Taiwan writer Qiong Yao and the mainland, Hunan TV station attached great importance to the filming of the Return of the Pearl. The total investment for this drama was 10 million yuan. It was naturally not a big investment in future TV dramas, but it was a huge income in 1997.
Meanwhile, in the conference room, the staff of Hunan Satellite TV, including Qiong Yao and Ping Xintao, who had rushed over from Taiwan, were waiting for the station head, Ouyang Changlin, who was also the main investor of Princess Huanzhu, to come for a meeting.
Soon, it was three o'clock in the afternoon. Ouyang Changlin walked in, followed by a smiling Chen Xiaotang.
Everyone was stunned. They did not know why Ouyang Changlin would bring this person here.
After Ouyang Changlin entered, he sat on the main seat and smiled."I'm sorry, everyone. I'm late!”
Liu Xiangqun, a senior executive of Hunan TV, said,"Station Head, you must be joking. You came just in time! "I wonder who this is…" As he spoke, he looked at Chen Xiaotang.
Ouyang Changlin chuckled and said,""Let me introduce everyone. This is my good friend and brother, Chen Xiaotang. This time, I want him to play the role of Fu Er Kang! What do you think?"
"What?" Everyone was shocked, wondering when Station Head Ouyang had such a young brother.
Qiong Yao was from Taiwan, so she was not interested in the station head from the mainland having any good friends. She sized up Chen Xiaotang and whispered a few words to her husband before saying,""Station Head Ouyang, this little Chen Xiaotang has a very good appearance and is very suitable for the role of Fu Erkang. However, I wonder how his acting skills are?”
When Ouyang Changlin heard this, he laughed and said,"Ms. Chen, you can rest assured that my good brother's acting skills are definitely passable. Do you want to test him?”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Thus, the exam began.
At this moment, a senior executive from Hunan TV said,""Chen Xiaotang, we're going to have an exam now. We're going to talk about some things. After you hear it, you have to immediately make an expression as if you've encountered something.”
"No problem!" Chen Xiaotang said with a smile.”
"You won the lottery!" said one of the higher-ups.”
Chen Xiaotang's face immediately revealed a happy smile.
"But you found out that the lottery ticket was from the previous issue!”
Chen Xiaotang immediately revealed a disappointed and helpless expression.
"Your favorite girlfriend made a cuckold out of you!”
Chen Xiaotang's face immediately turned furious.
"Now you want to take revenge on the ugly man who killed your father!”
Chen Xiaotang's face turned into a sickly grin.
……
After trying out dozens of expressions for different scenes, even Qiong Yao couldn't help but sigh. Although Chen Xiaotang seemed to have gotten the Station Head's support through Ouyang Changlin's connections, he was indeed a good candidate for acting!
Qiong Yao smiled and clapped.""Very good! You have a talent for acting!" Qiong Yao felt a little regretful at first. She had originally wanted Wu Qilong to be the actor for Er Kang, but unfortunately, nothing in the world was perfect. However, looking at Chen Xiaotang now, Qiong Yao felt that he might be able to play the role well.
"Chen Xiaotang, right?" Qiong Yao smiled. Hello, I'm Qiong Yao. I really want to ask you now. Have you seen my Princess Huanzhu?”
"Of course I have! And I've seen it countless times!" Chen Xiaotang said with a smile.
"Eh?" Qiong Yao was obviously very surprised. It should be known that many people in China had yet to come into contact with Qiong Yao's novel. Few people read Princess Huanzhu. The reason why this novel became popular was because of the filming of Princess Huanzhu. At this time, Chen Xiaotang said that he had read Princess Huanzhu countless times. Qiong Yao could not help but be suspicious. She thought that this kid must have been cramming for Princess Huanzhu, but he said that he liked her very much. This was a common courtesy for actors.
Qiong Yao nodded and said,""Alright, then let me ask you, which character do you like the most?”
"Me? I like the flute sword the most!" Chen Xiaotang said with a faint smile.
Everyone was taken aback. Usually, when an actor came to apply for a role in a novel or TV series, when asked this question, they would usually say that they liked the role they were applying for the most. However, Chen Xiaotang said that he liked the role of Xiao Jian the most. This made Qiong Yao and the others very surprised.
Qiong Yao and her husband, Ping Xintao, couldn't help but show a hint of approval in their eyes. They thought to themselves that this kid wasn't a hypocrite. Qiong Yao immediately asked,"Then why do you like Xiao Jian?"
"Maybe it's because of his chivalrous aura!" Chen Xiaotang said. As the saying goes, a flute and a sword travel in the martial world, a pot of wine for eternal love and hatred. It gives me a noble feeling of ancient paladins. I'm a martial arts fan, and I admire paladins very much!”
"Well, you answered very well! If I let you play the flute and sword, would you be willing?”As Qiong Yao spoke, her eyes revealed a trace of agility. This question was very tricky. Everyone knew that Xiao Jian was only a supporting role and was far less important than Er Kang, the second male lead. If Chen Xiaotang answered that he was willing to play the role, then he probably wouldn't be able to play the second male lead and could only play the supporting role. If he answered that he didn't want to, it meant that he was very hypocritical. In order to play the second male lead, he didn't even want to play his favorite role.
Chen Xiaotang sighed in his heart that Qiong Yao was indeed a sly old fox. Her words were aggressive and he chuckled."Of course I want to play Xiao Jian, but I know that I'm just a rookie who hasn't acted in any movies yet. There are so many big shots here, so it's naturally up to everyone to decide what I want to play! Station Head Ouyang is my good friend, so I think it's better for him to make the decision for me!”He threw the ball to Ouyang Changlin.
Ouyang Changlin knew that his master wanted to play Er Kang, so he immediately said,"Well, according to my personal opinion, I hope that Xiaotang will act as Erkang. What do you think? Ms. Chen, Mr. Yan, what do you think?”
Qiong Yao and Ping Xintao looked at each other and nodded. Qiong Yao said,"We have no objections. This young man is very honest, and... and very smart! I think he can play the wise and infatuated Er Kang well!”
Since Qiong Yao, the original author, had agreed, the others naturally had nothing to say. They all agreed to let Chen Xiaotang play the role. Just like that, Er Kang's role was decided.
Hence, Ouyang Changlin took out the contract that he had prepared beforehand and signed it for Chen Xiaotang. The remuneration was 1,000 yuan per episode. Princess Huanzhu's first movie only had 24 episodes, which meant that Chen Xiaotang would not even get 25,000 yuan for her first movie. However, this was not the main point. Chen Xiaotang was a newcomer, so it was reasonable for her to receive a low remuneration. What Chen Xiaotang wanted was for this movie to be popular. After this movie became popular, he would control the boss of an entertainment company and let them package him. By then, She could become a super star!
