Chapter 260: Audition
There were a total of eight people seated in the audition room, and director Hu Defa sat in the middle. Chen Minhao even saw an acquaintance, Wei Ming, the director of "The Best Youth", sitting on Hu Defa's left hand side.
In the corner of the room, there are four photographers with video cameras. Generally speaking, auditions are not set on the spot, and many directors will record the process of each actor's audition, and after the audition, they will use the video to screen it.
Director Hu Defa turned the pen in his hand and said to Chen Minhao: "Do you remember the script? You have five minutes to think about which part to perform?"
Chen Minhao smiled and said, "In less than five minutes, I can start now." But can I turn off a few lights in the room? I want to make the room a little darker. ”
After director Hu Defa nodded slightly, the staff around him immediately turned off half of the lights in the room.
The room suddenly became a little dark.
Chen Minhao's frowning brows suddenly let go, as if he had solved some mathematical problem.
As he walked, he said, "I don't believe you're going to kill him, the murderer was hiding here a week ago." ”
Chen Minhao paused for a few seconds, as if he heard a question, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he continued: "Utano Jingwu's "Seeker Secret Room", the murderer hid in the patio for a month in order to kill people. ”
The corners of Chen Minhao's mouth rose even more, and he said: "Sherlock Holmes said that if you exclude all the impossible, which one is so impossible. After a pause, he turned around and said, "It's all the truth." ”
"Yes, I invited you to audition, on the one hand, because Wang Shuang recommended you, and on the other hand, because you scored well in the college entrance examination, which is more in line with the setting of this character's high IQ. Hu Defa nodded and said, "But Shao Fei's character is restrained and dull in most cases, so I want you to make me a few cute expressions now." ”
The natural expression of various expressions is the basic skill that Chen Minhao often emphasizes in Beiying's courses. Chen Minhao has learned expressions such as happy, angry, angry, and frustrated, but this is the first time that Chen Minhao has been asked to perform a cute expression.
Chen Minhao was stunned for a while because of this request, and his brain was spinning wildly: how should the cute perform.
"What's the problem?" asked Hu Defa, turning the pen in his hand again.
Wei Ming smiled and said, "Director Hu, don't worry, you have to give others a little time to prepare." ”
Chen Minhao felt that he might lose points if he thought about it any longer, he recalled his fans' expressions when they were cute on the barrage, and said, "Director Hu, I'm ready." ”
Hu Defa nodded slightly, signaling that Chen Minhao could start.
Chen Minhao's eyes suddenly became dull, his eyes were no longer staring intently at the front, but his pupils were dilated, and the expression on his face was still a little nervous.
Suddenly, Chen Minhao seemed to have encountered something conscious, and looked ahead with a curious expression.
Hu Defa nodded and said, "It's okay, you go out first, and you can come back tomorrow during the day." The staff will contact you at the specific time point, don't arrive early or late, come on time. ”
Chen Minhao bowed slightly, said: "Thank you", then pushed the door and left, the moment the door closed, Director Hu Defa nodded slightly.
Chen Minhao felt that his cute expression at the end was not very good, but he still left the room with a smile, after all, showing his unhappiness at this time was to let other auditioners see jokes.
After Chen Minhao came out, there were a few more people who came to audition, there were no pure newcomers, at least they were all Chen Minhao had seen on the big screen and small screen, familiar faces, but there were no first-line stars, they were all second- and third-tier small fresh meat.
Everyone's face is full of fighting spirit, and Chen Minhao feels that everyone is imperative for this role. After all, there are really not many scripts with a large investment, a good director, brilliant characters, and an actor in his early twenties.
Lin Xiuzi also nodded slightly beside him, and did not come up to ask, after Chen Minhao came out, Kang Hui immediately ended the conversation with an agent, waved his hand at the other party, and got into the car with Chen Minhao.
As soon as Kang Hui got in the car, he asked, "How do you feel?"
Chen Minhao said: "I'll come again tomorrow, but the specific time will have to wait for the notice." However, I heard Lin Xiuzi say that Shao Fei's role investors may be inclined to Zhang Xinyi and Jing Yongchang. ”
Kang Hui nodded and said: "A movie with an investment of hundreds of millions of yuan, Shao Fei is the role of the second male, so after the director nods, the investor nods again to settle down."
Investing in movies is a high-risk and high-return commercial investment, and investors will naturally be very cautious and will not act as a shopkeeper after giving money to the director. At least Hu Defeng has not reached the point where he is strong.
Especially in the movie "Detective", there are not many female protagonists, so the second male Shao Fei you audition for has become more important, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a double male lead. ”
Chen Minhao smiled and said, "I also think this role is very good, so I really want to win it." ”
Kang replied for a moment and said, "I will also help you find a relationship with the investor, but I can't guarantee that after your acting skills are suitable, you will definitely win the role of Shao Fei." In the entertainment industry, the number of movies with the potential to become popular in China is limited every year.
There will be a lot of people who want to compete with you. Even if you become an actor one day, you may not be able to play the role you want most. But as long as you can make a good impression on the director, you may have better roles in the future. ”
Chen Minhao smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Kang, don't worry, no matter what, since I have been preparing for so long, I will definitely not give up easily." ”
Kang Hui glared at him and said: "It hasn't reached the point of 'no matter what' yet, many things in the entertainment industry are true or false, you can't believe it, and you can't believe it all. If it did, I wouldn't have let you audition. ”
Kang Hui lit a cigarette and said meaningfully: "Moreover, since it is really determined, it is not really impossible to deal with it. By the way, I just heard from others that Wei Ming is now the assistant director of this film. He is a chicken thief, and he gets along with him many times. ”
Chen Minhao was just about to speak, when the mobile phone rang suddenly, he glanced at Lu Huiping, and he glanced at the mobile phone screen to Kang Hui.
Kang Hui raised his eyebrows and said, "You hang up first." Then text him and say that your agent is next to him and it is not convenient to answer the phone right now, and you will call her back when you get home. ”
When he got home, Kang sat down on the couch and motioned for Chen Minhao to call her now. After Chen Minhao's phone was dialed, he clicked on the speakerphone.
