Chapter 60: Shhhh
Wei Baichen walked into room 1086 nervously, and there were three people sitting opposite.
A middle-aged man with the Mediterranean Sea on his head in the center should be director Zhang Hailong of "The Temptation to Return to the City".
He was pot-bellied, wore a glittering golden watch, and was whispering to a bearded man on his right.
To his left sat a young man with black-rimmed glasses, with a serious expression and no smile. From the moment Wei Baichen stepped into the door, he was quietly observing him.
"Oh, it's Xiao Wei, you sit first. Let me introduce you to you, this is Luo Ming, the liaison producer, we call him Luo Dabeard, this one is Zhang Ruoqing who wears glasses, don't look at his young age, he is our executive director, what about me, don't you need to introduce him, right?"
Zhang Hailong smiled and introduced it cordially and enthusiastically, and at first glance he was an old man.
"Of course I know, you are director Zhang Hailong, and your previous filming of "The Temptation of Returning to the House" and "The Temptation of Returning to the Village" are all hit dramas, and I have watched them all without landing on the ground. ”
Wei Baichen had also done his homework, and while talking to Zhang Hailong, he nodded hello to the other two.
Luo Dabeard knew that he was a bold person at a glance, raised his hand slightly, and responded to him with a smile.
Zhang Ruoqing bowed his head lightly, without saying too much, he always gave people the feeling of coldness.
On the contrary, Zhang Hailong seemed extremely happy, and when he heard that he had seen his work, he asked: "Then you must have studied in advance the "Temptation to Return to the City" that we are preparing to film?"
"Yes, Director Zhang, I've read the script. As the finale of the 'Wild Man Trilogy', this drama mainly tells the love story of young men and women in the city, and the slightly heavy style of the first two is different, the tone of this drama is relaxed and cheerful, interspersed with workplace complaints, which is very in line with the taste of modern young audiences. ”
"Well, yes, it's well prepared. ”
Zhang Hailong turned his head and smiled at Luo Dabeard, and then said, "Casting, it's not enough to just talk about your feelings, even if you are introduced by He Jiong, we still have to let you play on the spot according to the process." ”
Wei Baichen nodded, knowing that he wanted to remind the other two that he was also a relational household.
Zhang Ruoqing frowned lightly and did not speak.
Luo's bearded smile became even brighter: "It turned out to be you! You, Teacher Huang, and Teacher He are recording variety shows, right? If you join our crew, it will add glory to us!"
Zhang Hailong picked up the teacup, took a sip, and did not agree with Luo Dabeard's words, but directly began to go down the process: "Talk about your understanding of the role, and show it in one or two lines." ”
"Ou Cheng, who is the heroine's male best friend in the play, is easy to tell right and wrong, and lacks responsibility. I want to portray him as a sissy, in contrast to the image of a strong woman who is strong on the outside and soft on the inside, so that this character can stand up more and better set off the character of the heroine. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Ruoqing folded his ten fingers together and stared at him without saying a word.
Zhang Hailong spoke: "That's a good point, please start your performance." However, you are only required to use one or two lines. ”
After speaking, Zhang Hailong leaned back and crossed his hands and waited for him to perform.
Wei Baichen stood up confidently, and when he stood up, his movements were extremely gentle.
He made a T-step with both feet, cocked his ring finger, and his right hand was like a clipper holding a nail clipper, slowly frustrating, and from time to time he blew his nails with his mouth.
Suddenly, he stopped his movements, looked up sharply and said in surprise:
"Why, baby, are you crying?"
One line is so damn that it gives goosebumps all over the ground.
"Hahahaha......"
The three people on the other side were very satisfied and laughed one after another.
Luo Dabeard was humorous by nature, and joked: "Wei Baichen, why are you fat? Why do you say that the sissy is the sissy?"
Wei Baichen kept his state, stomped his feet, and complained: "Hey, don't mention it, it's all ****~"
"Hahahaha......"
"You're funny!"
Luo Dabeard stroked his beard and smiled, expressing satisfaction with Wei Baichen's performance.
Zhang Hailong smiled, regained his serious face, pointed at Wei Baichen and said, "Xiao Wei, you also wait outside first, and let the three of us discuss and discuss." ”
Wei Baichen also knew the rules, knowing that they were going to determine the candidate, so he retreated outside the door and waited.
The other two were okay, Jin Duoduo was immediately displeased when he saw him smiling, and put on a stinky face.
......
1086 rooms.
Among these four people, the one who has the deepest understanding of the role and the most brilliant performance must be Wei Baichen. In addition, he is a regular guest of "Longing for Life", which will bring us good attention and is also beneficial to the production of TV series. Luo Dabeard analyzed rationally.
Zhang Hailong didn't say anything, turned his head and asked Zhang Ruoqing: "Ruoqing, what do you think?"
"I agree with Uncle Luo. ”
Zhang Ruoqing cherished words like gold, and went straight to the point.
"Oh, in this way, Wei Baichen has already received two votes out of three votes. ”
Zhang Hailong smiled incomprehensibly.
Luo Dabeard is also a human spirit, and immediately patted his ass and said: "What are the two votes and three votes, you are the biggest here, Ruoqing and I are both suggested, and you have to decide the final candidate! What we said is not right, you just treat us as if we are farting!"
Zhang Ruoqing was a little disgusted by his sycophant behavior, and pushed his glasses, but he didn't say anything.
"Luo Dabeard, look at what you said, this matter has to be decided by the three of us!"
Zhang Hailong said this, but he was very useful in his heart, took a sip of tea, nodded to the two of them, and said: "I agree with the two of you, Wei Baichen did act well, but——"
Everything is most afraid of the word "but".
Luo Dabeard and Zhang Ruoqing immediately understood that Wei Baichen had little hope.
However, Jin Duoduo's performance is not bad, and he is also an entertainer of Canxing Entertainment. ”
"Canxing?"
Luo Dabeard was a little surprised.
Zhang Hailong's status is higher than him, he has a wide range of contacts in the industry, and he knows more insiders than him.
"Canxing is the major shareholder of Tiandu Pictures, and the importance of Tiandu Pictures to our drama, you should know better than me, right?"
Luo Dabeard nodded, and had no objections to the casting.
Zhang Ruoqing was silent and did not raise any objections.
An actor's acting skills have never been the only criterion for casting. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many NC dramas.
Soon, the results of the three deliberations came down. There is no doubt that Jin Duoduo was chosen, and Wei Baichen lost this role.
Of course, it's not that there is no compensation at all, after all, Mr. He's face is there.
Zhang Hailong clasped Wei Baichen's hands apologetically and apologized: "I'm really sorry! However, your acting skills are obvious to all, and there is a role in the play, I don't know if you are interested......"
He said the filming time, impartially, it happened to be the time when Wei Baichen recorded a variety show.
Wei Baichen thanked him and turned to leave.
There was a hint of disappointment in his heart, and he kept speculating about the reason for his defeat.
When he returned to the hotel where he lived, he found the reason for his defeat-
His hair is like a hedgehog, so it's no wonder if he doesn't lose the election!
Is that the reason?
Just take it as it is!
