AFAIK, you can't do this. The fields (Author, Title, etc.) come from either the file metadata, or the filename/regex. If you're using regex, you have to have a match between some part of the filename and the regex. If the "hardcoded values" aren't already in the filename, then the regex can't match them, and they can't be part of the imported field.

I've occasionally wanted this, too. I usually just use Search and Replace to do it after import.
