This time Hong Chen went to audition, and there was one person who Hong Chen had to pay attention to.

That is Liang Chaowei.

Although Hong Chen won the double actor last year and has countless halos, compared with Liang Chaowei, his resume is much worse now.

Not to mention how many actor titles Liang Chaowei has won, just one of the achievements is enough to kill nine out of nine movie stars in China.

That is, he once won the Cannes Best Actor!

Cannes, Venice, Berlin, the Oscars, the four major international film festivals, it is difficult to win an award in them, let alone win the title of actor!

There is no doubt that Liang Chaowei's acting skills are impeccable.

For example, Hong Chen looks at the information through the system, and he can know that the highest score of acting in the entertainment industry is 9.5 points.

Liang Chaowei must be among them!

Therefore, this time to audition, Hong Chen was under a lot of pressure.

However, he also relaxed his mentality, because even if he can't compete for the male number one, the second and third men can win it.

After all, there may be two or three such big-budget movies in Huaxia a year, and it's a pity to miss it.

And the ranking of big-budget movies is not important, the key is to see how well the actors perform.

In fact, Hong Chen and Liang Chaowei also collaborated last year, that is, the movie "Hero".

At that time, Hong Chen played Qin Shi Huang, and Liang Chaowei played the assassin Remnant Sword.

However, because they are all scenes, Hong Chen basically plays a rival with the nameless played by Li Lianjie, and has only filmed one time with Liang Chaowei, so the two did not communicate much at that time, and they can only be regarded as acquaintances.

That night, Hong Chen came to HK, and director Liu Weiqiang had already arranged a special person to pick him up, and as soon as he got off the plane, he contacted the people here and sent Hong Chen directly to the hotel to rest.

It can be seen that Liu Weiqiang respects Hong Chen very much. Because Hong Chen's popularity and status in HK are very high now, just like Zidan, Wu Zhan and Jet Li, because people here especially worship actors who can really fight.

When he contacted An Jie, an actor he had met in the story of the new cop, told him that they were having a swimsuit party on the yacht and asked him if he wanted to come.

After all, he still has an audition tomorrow, so Hong Chen politely declined.

Yacht parties in HK are indeed very popular, especially in June, when rich people especially like to take a group of girls out to play in the water.

Many second- and third-tier film and television actors in Hong Kong still have a bit of the taste of former "nouveau riche", that is, they shoot seriously when filming, and they start to squander after making money.

In this regard, Hong Chen didn't feel anything, everyone pursued different things.

In the evening, he was carefully reading the script of the audition. This time it was very interesting, director Liu Weiqiang directly sent him the scripts of several characters, from the protagonist to the second male and the third male, and let him understand them all.

Hong Chen estimates that other actors should be similar.

Liu Weiqiang did not limit a role to a certain actor, but wanted to determine the most suitable actor through screening.

The next day, Hong Chen got up and washed up, and the assistant made a look for him, so he quickly rushed to the audition place.

The audition took place at Plaza Premium Film Distribution, which is also the producer of "Infernal Affairs".

He had just gotten out of the car, and by coincidence, he met another star. This star is not low, it is Liu Dehua, one of the four kings of Hong Kong!

Liu De was wearing a capable suit, and there was an elegant momentum between his gestures.

Liu Dehua used to be a smash hit singer, but now he has transformed into an actor, singing and acting. Some people like to compare him with others, saying that he is not as good as a certain king in singing and not as good as Liang Chaowei in acting.

In fact, there is no need to compare him with the strongest in a certain field in all aspects, his achievements in music and acting are not low, and his popularity in China is very high.

Liu Dehua got out of the car, saw Hong Chen, smiled at him and nodded.

The two didn't know each other before, but they knew each other.

"Hello, Hongchen. Liu Dehua stretched out his hand very politely and said.

"Hello Heavenly King!" Hong Chen shook his hand and replied with a smile.

"Are you also here for the audition?" asked Liu Dehua.

"yes. Hong Chen nodded.

Both of them have their own scripts, so there will definitely be a rivalry when auditioning. At that time, the scene between the king and the actor must be a very exciting scene.

Then, the two of them entered the building of Plaza Premium Film Distribution Company together.

The audition took place in a hall that looked like a small opera house, with rows of seats below it and a huge stage above it.

Liu Dehua of Hongchenhe was half an hour ahead of the agreed time, and many people had already arrived at this time.

are all familiar faces of Hong Kong stars, and these actors have a certain degree of popularity in China.

Hong Chen saw Liang Chaowei at a glance. Liang Chaowei sat at the very edge of the first row, looking very quiet, not talking to anyone, looking at the air a little distracted.

Liang Chaowei arrived very early, which is enough to show the degree of dedication.

"Chaowei!" Liu Dehua shouted at Liang Chaowei, he and Liang Chaowei have always had a good relationship.

Liang Chaowei heard someone call him, got up and looked back, saw that it was Liu Dehua, smiled gently, and walked over.

Liang Chaowei's temperament is very unique, and he has a lot of taste when he laughs.

Liang Chaowei first said hello to Liu Dehua, and then saw Hong Chen, smiled at him, and said:

"Hongchen, long time no see. ”

"yes, long time no see. Hong Chen also smiled politely.

"Do you know?" Seeing this, Liu Dehua asked suspiciously.

"When I was filming "Hero" last year, there was a scene, so I met. Liang Chaowei was deeply impressed by Hong Chen, mainly because the temperament of Qin Shihuang played by Hong Chen at that time was too unique.

"Come on. Liang Chaowei showed his trademark smile, said another word to Hong Chen, and sat back in his seat after speaking, looking thoughtful.

Hong Chen knew that his character was like this, he was a very quiet person, and he didn't like to talk much, so he just responded with a smile.

After a while, director Liu Weiqiang also came. As soon as Liu Weiqiang came in, he walked straight to Liang Chaowei's side.

Seeing the director appear, all the actors stood up.

"Chaowei, have you thought about it clearly, this drama can't do without you. Liu Weiqiang said to Liang Chaowei with a smile.

Liang Chaowei looked mild, and said: "Director Liu, I'm really embarrassed, let's take a look at the situation first." ”

"Then it's decided, if I really don't have the right person here, you have to be the main actor, and you should take care of me. Liu Weiqiang said with a smile.

Hearing the conversation between the two, a trace of doubt flashed in Hong Chen's expression. Liu Dehua on the side should know something, so he just shook his head regretfully.

Later, Hong Chen learned that it turned out that at this time, there was another crew looking for Liang Chaowei to play the male lead.

is also a very big-budget movie - "The Grandmaster"!

The director of "The Grandmaster" is Wang Jiawei, who is the leading figure of HK directors.

His first film, "Mong Kok Carmen", was nominated for the Best Director Award at the Academy Awards.

It is worth mentioning that what really let the audience know about "Mong Kok Carmen" is because of a "black fly" emoji: "Eat, you".

Wang Jiawei's follow-up works "The True Story of A Fei" and "Chongqing Forest" all won awards. The most powerful is "Spring-Flash", for which he won the Best Director Award at the Cannes International Film Festival, becoming the first Chinese winner to win this award at the Cannes International Film Festival.

It can be said that Wang Jiawei has countless halos, and he is a director who is very good at making literary films.

That's always been his style.

He is not a traditional commercial film director, but a director who pursues his own style.

Like Jiang Wen's style is black humor, Zhang Mouzi's style is a combination of Chinese elements and landscape painting-like colors, and Wang Jiawei's style is literature and art.

His films, with mottled light and shadow, extremely short dialogue, restrained and silent characters, contain a huge storm in their hearts.

Such a character style is very suitable for Liang Chaowei.

The combination of "Wang Jiawei + Liang Chaowei" makes people feel that the movie is not bad when they hear it, because the combination of these two won the award softly.

Just like if the comedy is a "Shen Teng + Ma Li" combination, the investor must rush to invest money, Wang Jiawei + Liang Chaowei is also such a combination that can have a chemical reaction.

Leung Chiu-wai's status in HK is too high, not only because of the title of Cannes actor, but because he is very powerful in his own right.

Hong Chen didn't know at this time, in fact, Liang Chaowei privately had a verbal agreement with directors Li Weiqiang and Mak Zhaohui, that is, let Hong Chen audition for the role of Chen Yongren first, and if Hong Chen was suitable, he would go to the crew of "The Grandmaster".

Liang Chaowei wanted to go to "The Grandmaster" in his heart, but he was a very responsible person, so he hoped that Hong Chen could perform well when he auditioned.

"Okay, everybody's here, let's get started, this audition is completely open, everybody is performing on stage, and we'll decide on the final candidates. When the time was almost up, Liu Weiqiang stood up and shouted to everyone in the seats.

For a while, the actors who auditioned were completely quiet.

After all, when it comes to auditioning in front of so many people, anyone is inevitably a little nervous.
