Chapter 43: Actors

"Hello, Director Lu! My name is Huang Bo. ”

A man in his thirties stood in front of Lu Yao with a sincere smile on his face.

This man doesn't look outstanding, but his reckless words make Lu Yao feel a kind of cordial.

This is the sixth interviewee.

There were also a few well-known actors who came to apply before, but without exception, they were all sent away by Lu Yao under the pretext of going back and waiting for news.

Because these people are not what Xue Jingshu is looking for.

They came to the door spontaneously.

Although Lu Yao is not very old, and it is the first time to be a director, he is obviously inexperienced, but they don't care.

Because Lu Yao has a halo on his head.

That is: he is the son of Tong Chenggang.

Therefore, there are always people who will play Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, looking forward to having a relationship with Director Tong Da by participating in this movie.

Lu Yao didn't like this.

Looking at the actor named Huang Bo selected by Xue Jingshu, he had a feeling that one of the leading actors had been decided.

Because he briefly read Huang Bo's resume.

Huang Bo graduated from the Acting Department of Yenching Film Academy, majoring in dubbing.

In high school, he worked as a resident singer, formed a band, and after the band disbanded, he applied for film school, and after graduation, he participated in several films, but he was not famous.

"Have you ever been a singer and formed a band before?" Lu Yao asked.

Huang Bohan laughed, "Yes, I have been doing it for a while, and I have been singing in a bar in my hometown." ”

"Did you ever dream of becoming a household name?"

Hearing the director ask this question, Huang Bo was slightly stunned.

"I'll tell you the truth, I used to be young and ignorant, but I did think so. But after being blind for a while, I found that I really wasn't that material, so I gave up. ”

"Oh. After you give up, you go to film school and get ready to join the entertainment industry, right?"

"Yes. ”

"Do you think you're not good for singing, but you're good for acting?"

Huang Bo was asked.

In the past few years after graduation, he has traveled around and participated in several movies, but due to external conditions, he has received supporting roles with few scenes.

With such a supporting role, if you want to get ahead, the difficulty can be imagined.

So now, he is only a little stronger than the average dragon set.

No one had ever asked him that.

Are you really acting material?

He was in a state of confusion.

He also asked himself.

In fact, he was already a little desperate.

No director has ever asked him to be the protagonist, not even the second male or the third male.

At one point, he suspected he was going to be able to hold on.

Lu Yao's interview here was for him to come with a glimmer of hope.

If he is rejected again, he will continue to deny his acting career after denying his singing career.

Leave the entertainment industry completely.

But at the moment, he can't say that.

If he himself said "I'm not acting material", the director would have passed him directly, right?

So he grinned: "Lu Dao, I think I still have potential, but I lack opportunities." If you can give me this chance, trust me, I won't let you down!"

Lu Yao looked at him.

"Do you think, on your terms, you can be popular?"

Huang Bo's smile faded away.

His heart slowly cooled.

The young director in front of him, whether it is his eyes or tone, is full of doubt and disdain.

As if to pronounce his death sentence.

He lowered his eyelids, blinked, and looked up again, trying to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

"Dreams are always out of reach, should I give up?"

Lu Yao suddenly said such a sentence to him.

Huang Bo lowered his head again.

With a face full of disappointment and unwillingness.

Sure enough, I was rejected again.

Do you still want to give up?

However, I am not willing to give up like this!!

His heart was dripping blood.

"Keep it up like this. Lu Yao said lightly, and then took out the score of "Old Boy" and handed it to him, "Sing this song." ”

Huang Bo looked up suddenly.

What does this mean?

Am I chosen?

He was a little dazed for a moment.

Lu Yao also saw the doubt in his eyes: "Congratulations, Huang Bo, you have been chosen." Give you a few minutes to sing this song, and you'll probably understand why I chose you. ”

Huang Bo felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, hurriedly took over the score, and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you director, thank you director!"

Lu Yao smiled slightly and motioned for him to follow the staff to practice singing next door.

As a former singer, a song like "Old Boy", which is not very difficult, is a piece of cake for him.

But as he sang, his mood changed.

In the beginning, his heart was filled with the joy of being chosen.

As he hummed, his mood gradually became mixed.

"That's the person I love day and night

How do I express it?

Will she accept me

Maybe I'll never say that to her

I'm destined to wander the world

How can there be care

Dreams are always out of reach

Is it time to give up

It is the rainy season when the flowers bloom and fall

Spring, where are you

......”

The sentence asked by Director Lu, "Dreams are always out of reach, should you give up", was it originally a lyric in this song?

"Youth is like a rushing river

If you don't come back, it's too late to say goodbye

Only the numb me was left, and I didn't have the blood of the year

Look at the flowers floating in the sky

Wither in the most beautiful moment

Who will remember that she was in this world

......”

Yes, his youth is long gone, and over the years, he has indeed become numb and cooled his blood.

"In the blink of an eye, many years have passed, and there have been many joys and sorrows

The teenager who once aspired to the Quartet envied the geese flying south

The figures rushing to the future hurriedly drifted away

Where is the future ordinary, who will give me the answer

Where are you, who accompanied me then?

The person I once loved, what is it like now

Did you get your original wish?

Do you have to pay tribute to it now?

Let the years dry, and the ideal can no longer find the real me

Look up at the starry sky

The one that accompanied me at that time

Do you remember the story here

......”

Youth, friendship, romance, ideals, those once the best pasts, have now become withered flowers.

"Life is like a merciless carving knife

Changed the way we look

Do you wither before it blooms?

I've had dreams

Youth is like a rushing river

If you don't come back, it's too late to say goodbye

Only the numb me was left, and I didn't have the blood of the year

Look at the flowers floating in the sky

Wither in the most beautiful moment

Who will remember that the world once came

Did you get your original wish?

Do you have to pay tribute to it now?

Let the years dry, and the ideal can no longer find the real me

Look up at the starry sky

The one that accompanied me at that time

Do you remember the story here

If there is tomorrow, bless you dear"

Singing and singing, he was already in tears.

He also understood why Lu Yao asked him those questions.

For this movie, he is the most suitable candidate.

Because, there is no need to perform.

All he has to do is tell his own story to the camera.
