Next to the camera, the program director Niu Yuntian looked at the comments and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

God knows how much effort he put into inviting these actors over the past week.

For some actors, it wasn’t until today that they finally reached an agreement.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly at this moment, it was worth it!

Chapter 221 Matching Actors

“Okay, time is precious!”

Amid the excitement, the host Bingbing once again focused everyone’s attention.

“Now, we invite this issue’s thirty-two contestants to come in and draw their matching actors!”

As soon as he finished speaking, under the gazes of countless people, contestants including Zhou Chen and Wang Qiang came onto the stage and began to shake hands with the actors one by one.

Logically speaking, as the most experienced contestant, Wang Qiang should be sought after by many actors.

But what he didn’t know was that the reason these actors agreed to participate in the show with Director Niu was basically because of Zhou Chen.

It’s not easy to be an actor these days.

There are actors everywhere. If they want to become famous, they have to rely on good scripts. Now that the script competition is such a good program, they naturally want to participate.

Especially Zhou Chen’s script, which is worth 15 million and is a group portrait theme. Even if they are allowed to play a small role, it may be much better than being the leading actor in other TV series.

So, as Zhou Chen appeared on the stage, all the actors from the three generations, old, middle-aged and young, shook hands with Zhou Chen enthusiastically.

“Zhou Chen, please cooperate with me more in the future. After the show, let’s change our WeChat accounts!”

“Hey, Dou Da, I’m a big fan of your Doupo. If Doupo is ever made into a TV series, you must give me a role!”

“Hello Zhou Chen, we may have a chance to cooperate!”

Wow, they were all famous stars just now, but now in front of Zhou Chen, they all seemed to have become Zhou Chen’s fans.

That’s called passion.

There is no way. In the past year, Zhou Chen has been very popular for writing novels, lyrics, and now he is even more popular for writing scripts.

Look at all the stars who are related to Zhou Chen, Ji Linlin, look at those singers, which one of them is not popular?

Among these actors in the film and television industry, who wouldn’t want to get close to Zhou Chen at this moment?

In comparison, Wang Qiang, who is very famous in the screenwriter and director circles, seems particularly embarrassed.

Damn, there are so many actors and actresses, but not a few of them greeted him.

The only person who came over to shake hands and communicate was my mentor Song Yafei.

Yes, the program team couldn’t invite enough actors to reach 32, so Song Yafei, as an actor, had to make up the number.

“Alright, alright. Now, contestants, draw your numbers!”

The host Bingbing interrupted the conversation on the spot. If they were allowed to continue chatting, I’m afraid the show would not be able to go on.

Then, Bingbing carried a transparent box and walked to each contestant one by one.

As they drew numbers, the actors walked to the corresponding contestants according to their numbers.

“Oh my god, my luck is so good! I was actually picked by Director Wang!”

Soon, Wang Qiang drew number 18, which was the actress Song Yafei.

Song Yafei made her debut by filming a youth romance drama, and Wang Qiang is best at shooting youth romance dramas. The two of them getting together is a perfect match.

Song Yafei walked up to Wang Qiang with a smile and gave him a big hug.

“Director Wang, come on!”

Song Yafei encouraged with a smile.

“no problem!”

Wang Qiang was also very happy.

He had so much to write based on the storyline of Song Yafei.

I just don’t know what the theme will be drawn later.

On the other side, under the gaze of everyone, Zhou Chen also showed the drawn number.

It was actor number 29. Everyone took a closer look and couldn’t help but gasp.

It turned out to be the veteran actor Wang Song!

Yes, Wang Song is over 50 years old this year, and he has acted in many plays, including good guys, bad guys, and supporting roles. His acting range is very wide. However, in the past two years, because there are too few good scripts, Wang Song has taken fewer roles.

He also watched the script competition and admired Zhou Chen’s ability to write scripts, so when Director Niu invited him, Wang Song agreed without hesitation.

Wang Song didn’t expect that he was so lucky to become a partner with Zhou Chen.

“Teacher Zhou Chen, I’m looking forward to it!”

Wang Song hugged Zhou Chen warmly, his eyes full of expectations.

As a veteran actor, he really needs a script that will brighten his eyes. Wang Song is really curious about what kind of script this young man in front of him can create today.

“I am looking forward too!”

Looking at Teacher Wang Song in front of him, Zhou Chen’s face was also full of smiles, but he spoke very modestly.

At this moment, the host came over again and said with a smile,

“Now that the actors and screenwriters have been successfully matched, the next step is the most important part.”

Under the gazes of countless people, Bingbing said,

“In this episode, each of our contestants will randomly draw their own theme. They may come up with the same theme, or they may draw themes of different styles.”

“But no matter what the theme is, the contestants need to create a script for their corresponding actors based on this theme.”

“Then let’s see what they will draw!”

After these words were spoken, both the audience at the scene and the netizens in the live broadcast room could not help but hold their breath.

It is important to choose the right actor.

But if the chosen theme does not suit the actors, it will be a real test for the screenwriter.

After all, many screenwriters are only good at writing scripts in a certain area. If you change the subject matter, they may not be able to write it.

Of course, such an arrangement makes people look forward to it.

The combination of multiple elements may create new sparks.

Under the gaze of everyone, the host Bingbing once again took the theme box and walked in front of the contestants.

“Okay, contestant number 30 has drawn the theme of Fisherman.”

“This contestant has drawn the theme of the crown!”

“Now, let’s welcome this contestant… The theme he drew is… Ice!”

As Bingbing walked in front of the contestants one by one, different themes were drawn out one by one.

“Director Wang Qiang…”

The host Bingbing walked up to Wang Qiang.

Wang Qiang didn’t hesitate and drew it directly.

Then he unfolded the note and saw, “Depression!”

Wang Qiang, “???”

Song Yafei, “???”

My goodness, I’m writing a romance film, and you give me the topic of depression. How can I write it?

For a moment, Wang Qiang was stunned.

Soon, Bingbing walked in front of Zhou Chen.

“Teacher Zhou Chen, please draw your own theme!”

Bingbing smiled sweetly and looked at Zhou Chen with eyes full of anticipation.

Yes, in the first episode, a script worth 15 million was created. I wonder what kind of surprise this little guy can create for people this time.

Under the gaze of everyone, Zhou Chen reached his hand into the transparent box.

Chapter 222 Zhou Chen is going to fail this time

In the first episode, each contestant had the same theme, so judging from the rules of the competition alone, it was basically fair.

But in this second episode, everything is full of uncertainty.

The actor you draw is uncertain, and the theme you draw is also uncertain.

Amid all the uncertainties, the script that was finally written became dramatic.

Therefore, netizens are also full of expectations for Zhou Chen’s choice of topic this time.

“Zhou Chen seems to be very good at fantasy. I wonder what the theme will be.”

“Haha, Wang Song is a veteran actor. You can act in any drama. I don’t think the subject is difficult for them.”

“That’s right, I believe in Zhou Chen’s ability!”

Under the gaze of countless netizens, Zhou Chen drew a theme card from it.

The host Bingbing took a closer look and immediately read it out.

“Okay, the theme Zhou Chen drew is, Countryside!”

“What? The countryside?”

“What the hell, a rural-themed TV show, how boring it is!”

“Good fellow, you let a writer of fantasy novels write about rural revitalization?”

“Yeah, that’s pretty positive energy!”

“Isn’t this embarrassing for me?”

When this theme card appeared, everyone was stunned.

They thought of many topics and felt that it would not be a big problem for Zhou Chen, but they never expected that Zhou Chen would draw a rural theme!

Although Zhou Chen has also filmed period dramas and they were very popular, those were themes about women, and the countryside was just a background. But now, the protagonist is the veteran actor Wang Song, so it is obvious that he wants to consider the positive energy poverty alleviation aspect…

Well, the script is good, but… won’t it be boring?

For a moment, many people secretly worried for Zhou Chen, and at the same time they were also very curious about how Zhou Chen would solve the problem!

“Humph, God is really helping me!”

Wang Qiang, who was standing aside, thought he was unlucky enough as he had drawn the theme of depression. The script he wrote was destined to be unpopular.

But unexpectedly, Zhou Chen drew such a rustic theme as the countryside!

Compared to Zhou Chen, the topic he drew was a bit more high-end and topical. Moreover, with such a beautiful woman like Song Yafei by his side, he was sure to win in the second episode!

“Okay, now please invite the contestants to bring their matched actors into their own creative rooms. The creative time is three hours. During these three hours, the actors can move freely in the room, but they cannot disturb the contestants’ creation!”

Amidst the discussions, host Bingbing read out the rules of the competition again.

So, one by one, the actors and the corresponding contestants entered their respective rooms under the gaze of everyone.

As the competition bell rang, all the contestants sat on the sofa in the room and began to think.

“Love…depression…”

Wang Qiang took Song Yafei to his room, and from time to time he glanced at Song Yafei who was sitting on the sofa, which was particularly pleasing to the eye.

However, at this moment, he had no time to appreciate Song Yafei’s beauty.

Time is limited, and I must seize this opportunity to create a very popular script.

“Have it!”

About ten minutes later, Wang Qiang finally had an idea.
