Reborn Russia as an oligarch
Chapter 1029 The pie in the sky
Hearing what Marina said, the bald director was a little unhappy.
His face was also pulled down, he stared at Marina, and said with a smirk: "You have to think about it, you know what the entire domestic film and television industry is like now, how rare the opportunity to act is, I don't need to I said, if you miss this opportunity, you will regret it!"
Although Marina really wanted to pick up the coffee cup in front of her and splash the coffee on the bald man's face, her reason told her she couldn't do that...
Because I still want to hang out in this circle in the future, if I really want to offend these big figures like directors and producers, then I really have no future in the future.
Just as she was thinking about how to decline the evening invitation without offending the bald director, her cell phone rang.
Glancing at the phone screen, he realized that it was his agent calling.
Originally, when I came to see the bald director this time, the agent should have accompanied Marina, but before departure, the agent called to say something urgent, so Marina came alone.
Now a phone call suddenly came, I don't know what it is.
After answering the phone, Marina just said hello "A Liao...", before she had time to ask the manager what's the matter, she was interrupted by the excited voice of the manager.
"Marina! What a great thing! You're going to get rich!"
Marina was confused by the agent, she asked blankly: "What good thing, why don't I know?"
"NTV's super drama with an investment of [-] million US dollars, you must know about it?" the agent asked.
Of course I know, as a person in the entertainment industry, who doesn't know about that big drama recently...
Marina nodded, seemed to think of something, and asked in surprise: "What? Are you related to help me find a supporting role in that drama? But didn't you tell me two days ago that you couldn't find a way? ?"
NTV is going to invest [-] million US dollars to make a big drama. Marina and her agent have known about this for a long time, and they have made "efforts".
A few days ago, the agent called people everywhere to find a relationship. He wanted to see if he could "stuck" Marina in to get a role. Of course, an important role is beyond even thinking about it. I can get more roles. That's enough for the little supporting role.
It's a pity that after finding a group of people, the agent told Marina in frustration that there was no way!
Because NTV TV station is very strict this time, the director Serev is personally responsible for the preparation of the crew, and the selection of actors for all roles must pass his test in the end, and no one is allowed to engage in favoritism and fraud.
So Marina no longer had illusions, but she didn't expect that the agent suddenly mentioned the show again today, so Marina thought that the agent had found some reliable channel.
"No, no, no, it's not my relationship, nor is it a supporting role. You're going to play the lead actress! You're the absolute heroine in the play! My God..." the agent said incoherently with excitement.
Marina felt a "buzz", the blood all over her body rushed up, and her cheeks were flushed.
As an "old" actor, she naturally understood what this news meant to her!
Needless to say, the salary and so on, for a super drama with an investment of [-] million yuan, the heroine's salary will definitely not be low, it will definitely be an amount that I can't even imagine!
Of course, in fact, even if NTV TV station does not pay a penny for the film and asks Marina to "perform on a voluntary basis", she will definitely agree to it without hesitation...
Because as long as she can act as the heroine of that big drama, her "cafe position" in the entertainment industry will skyrocket like a rocket!
From a young [-]th-line actor now, she has directly become the hottest big-name actress in the circle!
What TV announcements, commercial endorsements, filming opportunities, as many as you want!
If I had to make an analogy, it would be like a small marginal MP in the Duma, who belongs to a small faction and basically has no influence at ordinary times, that is, it acts as a voting machine for the Duma to vote.
One day, he suddenly switched roles with Mikhail and became one of the most influential figures in the Duma and even Moscow political arena. This span is obviously beyond imagination...
…………
After a while, probably didn't hear anything from Marina, the agent said again: "I'll give you an address, you come over right away, we will talk with the director of NTV, Serev, and the chief director of the crew. Let's meet and talk..."
After she finished speaking, Marina calmed down, but she also began to have doubts.
Because no matter how you look at it, I don't have the qualifications to be the heroine...
On fame, qualifications, acting skills, or connections in the circle...
No matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be my turn to be the heroine of such a huge production!
Don't let the manager fool you...
So she asked suspiciously: "Is this matter... true?"
"You... I just met the director of NTV, Serev, and he told me himself, how could I still lie to you about this kind of thing! Besides, didn't I tell you, the director, Serev He and the chief director are going to see you now, so you'll know if you come over and have a look." The manager said anxiously.
Only then did Marina become convinced that the matter should be true!
Although she hasn't figured it out yet, what exactly is NTV looking for in her...
Is it really a pie in the sky?
It just hit him on the head!
But now is not the time to think about these things, I have to hurry to NTV, otherwise I miss this opportunity, then I really want to cry without tears!
…………
After hanging up the phone, Marina hurriedly said goodbye to the bald director, and she didn't get carried away to show off in front of the bald director, after all, the matter hadn't been finalized yet.
What if I am not selected after meeting with the director and chief director in detail...
It's not impossible!
On the way to NTV, Marina was still thinking wildly. She was worried that what would happen if Serev or the director wanted to "unspoken rules"?
I have always kept myself clean before, and I have never been willing to accept the unspoken rules in this regard.
But this time is different!
I may really hesitate at that time...
Thinking of this, Marina couldn't help showing a wry smile. It seemed that her principles were not as strong as she imagined. The reason why she didn't lose herself before was just that the temptation was not strong enough!
It didn't take long for Marina to arrive under the NTV TV station building. Her manager was standing at the door looking around. When he saw Marina's car, he hurried up to meet her.
Before the car came to a complete stop, the manager opened the car door and hurriedly said, "Follow me quickly, Director Serev and the chief director are waiting for you, and they will audition for you later, you must show your full potential." level, how rare this opportunity is, I don’t think I need to tell you!”
Marina's mind was in a mess, but she didn't have time to think about it anymore. She followed behind her manager and walked into the NTV building...
…………
Serev and the chief director were chatting in the office while waiting for Marina's arrival.
"Selev, I still think we have a better choice. It is too risky to hand over the most important role in the play to an ordinary actor so rashly! I also know the actor Marina. Although I have never cooperated, but I have also watched two movies and TV series in which she starred, and they did not leave a deep impression on me..."
Director Gangchalovsky said with a frown.
A big-name director like him has always worked with the top star actors, so he naturally looks down on the not-so-famous Marina.
He said that he had watched TV series and movies in which Marina acted, but in fact he didn't even remember what Marina looked like...
Ever since he was selected as the chief director, Goncharovsky has always wanted to recommend a female star who has a good relationship with him to play Ekaterina!
Of course, apart from a little selfishness, Goncharovsky believes that the female star's fame, acting skills, and appearance are indeed more in line with the female lead in the play!
Originally, Serev also agreed with his opinion, but Chalovsky thought that the matter was sure, and he had already told the female star to cancel all the schedules in the next year and prepare to join the filming group!
But after Serev went to meet the new boss of the TV station, everything changed...
Serev told him that the boss had appointed an actress to play Ekaterina, and that actress was named Marina Alexandrova.
This caught Goncharovsky a little off guard.
…………
Hearing what Goncharovsky said, Serev smiled slightly, and of course he could see the selfishness of Goncharovsky.
But I didn't care about it. It was normal in the first place. If the boss hadn't hand-picked Marina, she would have recognized the actress Serev recommended by Gangchalovsky.
Isn't there a saying that "respecting the virtuous does not avoid relatives", as long as the actor fits the role of the crew, it doesn't matter whether he has a good relationship with the director or not.
But now in front of Serev, one is an actress hand-picked by the boss, and the other is an actress recommended by the director. How to choose should not be considered!
As long as the actress recommended by the boss is not too outrageous, Serev will sign a contract with her without hesitation!
Of course, judging from Serev's not too much understanding of the new boss Mikhail, the person recommended by the boss is generally not wrong, and maybe it can make his eyes shine...
You know, the little girl from the dance academy is so beautiful, and it is rumored that she has an unclear relationship with the boss Mikhail. Give her too important a role, and just play a supporting role.
And Marina obviously doesn't have any special relationship with the boss, otherwise she wouldn't have been around for so many years and still not in her early years.
Maybe the boss really thinks that she is very suitable to play Ekaterina, and she doesn't have any selfish intentions...
So upon hearing Goncharovsky's words, Serev replied unhurriedly: "I haven't seen Marina's audition yet, maybe she is really suitable for this role. Besides, this is the boss's name call." man..."
As he spoke, he gave Goncharovsky a meaningful look.
Just now, Chalovsky let out a long sigh and didn't say anything more. If he entangles with this matter again, it will appear that his EQ is too low...
Compared with the so-called friends, the position of the chief director is obviously more important!
Although he is very confident in his ability, Goncharovsky also knows that in the face of such a large investment, he obviously does not have that much right to speak as a director.
The TV station can replace me at any time, but after I leave the crew, if I want to find another drama with such a large investment, I basically don't even think about it!
Even for a well-known director like myself, perhaps the biggest investment drama he can get in touch with in his life is now this one, and he doesn't want to miss this opportunity.
…………
While chatting, the office door was pushed open, and the director's assistant arrived with Marina and the manager.
With a smile on his face, Serev got up and greeted Marina warmly, and asked them to sit down again.
During this period, he looked at Marina calmly. Although he knew the actress, he was not really impressed.
Looking at it now, Serev is more certain of his judgment, that is, the boss should have no "personal relationship" with Marina, maybe it is really like what the boss said, seeing Marina in a TV series, I feel She is more suitable to play Ekaterina...
Because although Marina is considered a beauty, she is not very stunning. There are so many beauties in the entertainment industry. Obviously, Marina is not famous for her appearance.
With the status of the boss, if you really want to find a beautiful woman, you probably don't like Marina's class...
After sitting down, Serev went straight to the point and explained the matter in a concise and concise manner. The general idea was that Marina was more suitable for the role of Ekaterina, so he invited her to come over for an audition and then talk about cooperation.
Marina was of course flattered, and said that she would have no problems with her schedule for the next period of time, and she could join the crew at any time!
Just after Chalovsky came in from Marina, he didn't say much, just looked her up and down, frowning as he watched.
This actress's appearance...is relatively correct, her facial features are good-looking, but she is not so beautiful.
But the atmosphere has an indescribable feeling...
He interrupted suddenly: "Marina, I'll have someone take you to put on makeup and try on clothes."
This is also a very important part of the audition process, that is, let the actors wear the clothes of the characters, put on makeup according to the needs of the play, and then see if the effect meets the director's expectations.
Clothes make up people, some people don't make up or put on makeup, they look completely different!
Of course Marina had no objection, so she followed a staff member to another room to make up and change clothes.
The three of Serev were drinking tea while waiting for Marina to come back.
After about 20 minutes, the door was pushed open, and the staff came back with Marina who had put on her makeup and changed her clothes.
Serev and Goncharovsky both looked up and were stunned at the same time. (end of this chapter)
His face was also pulled down, he stared at Marina, and said with a smirk: "You have to think about it, you know what the entire domestic film and television industry is like now, how rare the opportunity to act is, I don't need to I said, if you miss this opportunity, you will regret it!"
