Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Script
Zhou Xiao took it and glanced at it, shocked!
This is the script, the real TV script script, only two pages, simply describing a few scenes, which roughly means that he understands: "Audition?"
"That's right. Brother Wang snapped his fingers: "Audition, filming will start next spring, and at present, only the actor is Mr. Zhang Jiayi, and the role you want to try is the male number three." ”
Zhou Xiao nodded, he naturally didn't swell enough to think that he could play the leading role: "I thought the company's customized route for me was to sing an album." ”
"Which star is not able to write and martial arts now, besides, the record market is so sluggish, and the money you make from releasing an album is not as much as running a few commercial performances. Brother Wang talked eloquently: "How many singers are also acting as actors, and the focus has changed, there is no way, the market is like this." ”
"Then Haichang they..."
"Oh, don't worry, our company treats everyone equally. Brother Wang knew what he was worried about: "What I gave to the director is the information of the three of you, you entered the interview session, and they were eliminated, it's normal, each role is just one person, and the company is still looking for a suitable script." ”
Zhou Xiao only relieved his mind after listening to it.
"The director didn't reveal much about the specific content, he only knew that it was an urban drama, and you were an important supporting role, so if you want to be okay in the near future, you will eat these two pages thoroughly. Brother Wang put away his smile: "Although it is the third male, the assistant director of the crew has some friendship with me, and secretly told me that there are four people competing." ”
"Don't worry, I'll try. Zhou Xiao raised his right fist: "When is the audition?"
"On the first of next month, in Yanjing, I will accompany you when the time comes, Mr. Qiu has also said, if you have any questions, communicate with him at any time. ”
The company obviously attaches great importance to it, if the debut work can cooperate with a big name like Zhang Jiayi, even if it is a male N number who only shows up, it is worth fighting for, after all, he is a guarantee of ratings, and many people will watch it, at least he can be familiar.
Of course, all this is premised on the success of your own participation.
"What do you mean by saying goodbye to the TV station?" Zhou Xiao was a little puzzled.
"Oh, that's actually an afterthought, you have to get this character first. The cauldron interface said: "Because it's a summer drama, all of them will be filmed in Sanya, although there are not many male number three scenes, but they are not few, and..."
He looked at Zhou Xiao.
"Don't be angry, you are still a nobody, so you can only cooperate with the crew, always on standby, the estimated filming time is about four to five months, I think, even if the TV station is generous, it is estimated that it will not agree to you taking such a long leave." ”
The most important thing Zhou Xiao lacks is self-knowledge: "I understand, but I still have to wait until the audition results are out." ”
"Yes, just to prepare yourself first. ”
"Zhou Xiao. Brother Wang took over: "My suggestion to you is to add some of your own ideas, I have also read the script, very simple scenes and lines, if you simply follow the above, the dry one will definitely have no taste, you should ponder more and try to show your personal characteristics." ”
"Okay, thank you, Brother Wang, I remember. Zhou Xiao will not ignore the other party's words, he has brought many artists and has rich experience.
"Okay!" The cauldron stood up and clapped his hands: "Zhou Xiao's progress also represents the company's progress, in order to cheer him up, I wish the audition a success, all of them, go to the strings!"
The cheers sounded, the good thing about the new company is that there are few people, the heart is united, full of enthusiasm, although the evening meeting belongs to overtime, but there are no complaints, the special announcement is still good news, but also let everyone full of confidence.
As for why he didn't call a few other artists, the reason is very simple, it's not necessary, Zhou Xiao's conditions are the best among boys, and it's normal to take him as the mainstay, but just call it to listen, it's not good if it hits.
......
For the next period of time, Zhou Xiao focused on studying the script.
The male number three he wants to play is the owner of a pet shop, and there are two female employees under him, looking at the lines, the three of them should have known each other for a long time, because they are always bullied, and one of them is his crush.
Some eight women, some verbose, knife mouth tofu heart, although they often quarrel with them are not far behind, it can be seen that they care about and love the two of them, probably even like the heart of small animals is not bad.
Zhou Xiao can get the information from the script is probably like this, as for the relationship with other people in the play, there is no hint, just for auditions, and it will definitely not reveal too much.
The scenes are all in the pet store, and there are not many lines, just a few sentences, but this is more difficult, because I don't know what kind of effect the director wants.
What you can do is to put yourself in the position of the character, think and perform from the perspective that best suits the pet store owner's design.
For this reason, after Zhou Xiao thoroughly read the script, he did not go to the tip of the horns, but took advantage of the time to divide it into two plans.
The first is the lines, before he went to college, he spoke Mandarin very ordinary, even with some accents, and then, under the requirements of the teacher and the influence of his classmates, he slowly corrected and changed, but after watching a few TV series starring Mr. Zhang Jiayi, I found that the way of speaking is still quite different.
Zhou Xiao's approach is also very simple, that is, listen more and practice more, on the way to and from work, when he is resting at home alone, he is watching TV series, calling Yanjing's classmates, and even Teacher Huang Lei, learning pronunciation skills, after a period of time, I dare not say that it is 100% similar, but it has a bit of taste.
The sequelae is that talking to people on the TV station is also a Beijing accent, which makes everyone a little baffled.
In addition, I found a pet store near the community, and I will go to stay for more than ten or twenty minutes after work at night, and what I do is to observe, observe what the staff usually do, observe how to receive guests when they come, and observe how to clean the cage, anyway, it is a variety of observations.
The shopkeeper is not surprised, many customers will hesitate when they come to buy kittens and dogs, Zhou Xiao is just more entangled than those people.
Because they are all young people, and Zhou Xiao learned that he was a fan of Chou Dong, after sending an autograph, he didn't care whether he bought it or not, and took the initiative to tell him some breeding skills, business troubles, and other things, and the two became friends.
Zhou Xiao was embarrassed to say that he came to prepare for the audition, and it would be too embarrassing if he failed.
Similarly, he went a lot, and there were sequelae, and he fell in love with the gray and white Ying Short in it.
The body is round and fat, the limbs are short, the head is big and the face is round, and it is very clingy, after going a few times, when I see this little brother who often feeds it snacks, he will take the initiative to lie on his stomach at his feet, and he is very well-behaved.
But when he asked the price, he was shocked, more than 4,000, or the price of an acquaintance.
I can only put this thought aside for the time being and talk about it later.
