Chapter 161: 20 million salaries

Zhou Xiao came to Yanjing for the Nth time, and the road at the airport felt familiar, and it was estimated that he would be able to go to Wangfujing without a detour.

Naturally, it was Brother Wang who accompanied him.

This time, I was to participate in the audition, a TV series, which was scheduled before, and it will start tomorrow, and the other is a movie that contacted the company a few days ago.

"Ah..." Zhou Xiao yawned and put down the book in his hand, the title of the book was "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", he had already read it for the second time, not to mention, it was really not what he liked.

When I was in college, I often watched it, and the cauldron was charged at the starting point for a few hundred yuan if it was fine, but as a boy, I still like Xianxia fantasy, this kind of slightly awkward girl's gaze looks very tired, but she can only bite the bullet.

"Don't put too much pressure on you," Brother Wang could see that Zhou Xiao had a headache: "The main reason for reading the original book is to get familiar with it and show sincerity with the director, and the real scripts in the back are all revised and colloquial, or the audience doesn't like to watch it." ”

"Hmm. ”

The script was not given for the two auditions, and it was not surprising that the director would come up with the questions on the spot.

What Zhou Xiao can do is to adjust his mentality and face it calmly, there is no 100% audition.

When I arrived at the hotel, I didn't go out anymore, watched movies, slept and rested.

I got up the next morning and went to the director's studio in good spirits.

I could still see a lot of competitors in the last audition, but this time I was the only one, which probably had something to do with the weight of the role.

Zhou Xiao auditioned for Yehua, that is, the male protagonist, the prince of the Nine Heavens, the fiancΓ© of Qingqiu Emperor Ji Bai Qian, Mo Yuan's younger brother, and Kunlun Void God, all of them are his identities, and they are very powerful when they sound.

As a male protagonist, there are naturally preferential treatments, and it is normal to audition alone.

The studio is a bit like a sound studio, there are not many people in it, and before meeting the director, I was taken to the dressing room by the staff, and it took me an estimated hour to make the styling.

There is a light-colored scarf wrapped around the square bun on the top of the head, a pure black curved deep coat, a floss tie hanging on the waist, and soapy leather boots on the feet. Vertical arch in all directions, Dephi Kyushu. The gorgeous costumes are dazzling, and the Taoist system stays for a long time.

Brother Wang took out his mobile phone to help take pictures: "In the future, it seems that you can add elements of Hanfu when taking photos!"

The most important thing is that the costume designer said that he leaked his mouth, exaggerating that Zhou Xiao is the most suitable person to wear this suit in recent days.

Not to mention acting, it's the first time to wear ancient costumes, I haven't eaten pork and watched pig runs, I have watched a lot of costume dramas some time ago, Zhou Xiao tried his best to restore the way people walked and talked.

After changing his clothes, he was taken to another room, where five people were sitting, the director, the screenwriter, and the original writer, and there was a camera on the side, which was used to record the performance of the actors, and the details could be viewed later.

"You may be seated. The director greeted with a smile.

Zhou Xiao had a long heart, and instead of sitting down directly, he reached out and flicked the hem to the left, straightened his waist, raised his head, and sat down.

Just kidding, I finally read the books on both sides and knew what the protagonist was like.

For his actions, several people just looked at it in their eyes, and did not show any other expressions of admiration.

"Did you read a book?" the director asked.

"Yes, but because of time, I watched it twice. ”

"Let me ask at random, what do you think is the relationship between Yehua and Mo Yuan?"

"Personally, I understand that the two are brothers on the surface, but in fact they are more like dual personalities, to be precise, Mo Yuan has Yehua's cultivation, Yehua has a part of Mo Yuan's original spirit, and finally Mo Yuan's body is Yehua's soul. The most important thing is that the two alternately appear in Bai Qian's life, and the plot is that the two of them love three lives and three lives. ”

"Hehe, the term dual personality is quite interesting. The director nodded: "It seems that I did take it seriously, so I'll ask you again..."

Next, it is a question and an answer, the questions are quite simple, and Zhou Xiao consciously answered it well.

At the end of the session, it was replaced by a performance.

I didn't give a line or anything, it was just a brief time for him to think deeply, worried, angry, affectionate... But it's not easy at all, and it can't stand much.

Zhou Xiao did an estimated hundred expressions for half an hour, and he only realized today how spicy he was.

Some are okay, as soon as you hear the words, you know how to interpret them, but for example, there is no love in life, three points of surprise and seven points of moving, pain to powerlessness, sadness to the river of the current...

Zhou Xiao is still acting in ancient costumes for the first time, he doesn't understand, and he doesn't dare to ask, anyway, he acts by feeling, and he doesn't know that the director is not satisfied.

After it was over, I changed into another set of clothes, like armor, and continued to pose.

The audition process was unexpectedly long and took almost a morning, of course, the main thing was that the costumes and appearances were too time-consuming.

The result was no, and the answer was to wait for the notice, but before parting, the director pulled him to say a few words alone, which probably means that he has been basking less in the sun recently and going to the beauty salon more.

On the way back, Zhou Xiao told Brother Wang about the process, and the other party was overjoyed and felt that there was a drama.

In terms of skin color, Zhou Xiao is actually normal, if you really want to put it bluntly, compared with those fresh meat, it is far worse.

"Brother Wang," he considered his words: "I think this drama, I don't like it very much." ”

"What's wrong?"

"I feel that the acting will be very awkward, I don't describe it very accurately, it probably means that the individual and the play and the role are not very compatible, and they don't call. ”

"I know what you mean, so far, you've only made one film, and sometimes experience is slowly accumulated. Brother Wang said slowly: "If you suddenly change to a completely different routine, you will have no bottom in your heart, which is normal."

Just look at an actor, basically there is no one who only acts in urban dramas, almost all genres are involved, you have less of a process of precipitation and growth, and the starting point is higher than others, which makes you more impatient when you encounter problems.

These are not problems, the key is to adjust well-intentionedly, and the heroine of this drama has been booked, it is Yang Mi, and the second female is hot, they are all popular flowers, and starring with them will greatly improve your actor's popularity.

The most important thing is the salary, do you know how much you can get if you act?"

"Twenty million, you told me. ”

"You know. ”

Zhou Xiao's biggest contradiction is here, 20 million, even if taxes are deducted, and others, there is still 10 million in hand, then you can buy a house for your parents and let them move to Jinling.

However, I don't know why, so I feel a little uncomfortable.

"Okay, maybe I'm thinking too much, I'm worried about what I'm doing here. Zhou Xiao smiled and was no longer entangled.

"Well, you remember, we don't have the right to pick for the time being, we have to seize every opportunity. ”

"Okay. ”

"In addition, the audition location for tomorrow's movie is a bit strange, it is in the suburbs of Beijing, so we have to get up early. ”
