"You two are the bosses of the company, and you are actors yourself. Zhang Wenqing looked at the two of them in disbelief and said, "Do you still need to audition if you want to play a role in a TV series starring your company?"

"Yes!" Lin Qisan said with a smile, "The biggest boss of our young film and television is Xiao Yao, the chief planner of this TV series is Xiao Yao, and the chief producer is also Xiao Yao." He asked us to audition, and we had to come to the audition. ”

"Are you kidding?" Zhang Wenqing still didn't believe it, and asked with a smile.

Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan didn't answer again, just smiled and shook their heads.

After announcing the TV series project at the company's annual meeting at the end of last year, Zhao Rui, Lin Qisan and others have expressed their intention to participate in this TV series to Xiao Yao. At that time, Xiao Yao replied to them that they would wait for the script to be completed, and read the script to choose their favorite roles, but except for the role of the dragon with very few scenes, the general supporting roles need to pass the audition.

That's what Xiao Yao said, and that's what he did. When Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan read the script and told Xiao Yao that they had their favorite role, Xiao Yao directly asked them to go to the casting studio to sign up and let the casting studio arrange auditions. Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan knew when Xiao Yao was serious and when he was joking, and they had been mentally prepared for Xiao Yao's approach, and they were also very confident in themselves, so they really signed up in the casting studio.

Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan are shareholders of Young People's Film and Television Company, and they are very clear about the actor requirements put forward by Xiao Yao at the annual meeting, and the supplementary instructions issued by the casting studio have no impact on them. When it came time to reschedule auditions, the studio didn't need to wait for their response, so they scheduled their auditions on the first day of audition for the young roles, and they were in the top two.

"Can you ask which role you auditioned for?" Yu Shaoting on the side suddenly asked.

"The role I want to audition for is Zhou Bin, who is the colleague and partner of the male first Lin Dongyang. Zhao Rui said.

"The role I want to audition for is Sheng Wen, the heroine's younger brother!" Lin Qisan did not hide it.

"Huh?" Yu Shaoting and Zhang Wenqing were both surprised.

"I'm also here to audition for Sheng Wen. Yu Shaoting hesitated, but still spoke.

Zhang Wenqing's expression immediately darkened.

"Is it? What a coincidence!" Lin Qisan smiled, glanced at Zhang Wenqing next to him, and said to Yu Shaoting, "We are competitors, so I won't say I wish you success!"

"We don't have a competitive relationship, he doesn't say it, I'll say it!" Zhao Rui said to Yu Shaoting with a smile, "Don't worry, our role is not predetermined, and the audition is not a formality, I wish you a successful audition and snatch the role of Sheng Wen from Lin Qisan!"

"This~ thank you..."Yu Shaoting looked at the two of them and said with some hesitation.

"Hey, Zhao Rui, is there a brother like you?" Lin Qisan glared at Zhao Rui.

"Aren't you confident in winning that role?" Zhao Rui shrugged indifferently, "One sentence scared you?"

While the two were talking, a casting studio staff member walked in. It turned out that the audition room was ready, and the director and producer had arrived. After learning that the audition actors had already arrived, the director and producer decided to bring the audition forward and start the audition immediately. The staff came in to inform Zhao Rui to audition.

After Zhao Rui left, Lin Qisan didn't chat with Yu Shaoting and Zhang Wenqing anymore, and the three of them sat on the sofa to rest.

Ten minutes later, another staff member came in and called Lin Qisan away.

After Lin Qisan left, Zhao Rui, who went to the audition in front, did not come back, and no other audition actors arrived in the back, and only Zhang Wenqing and Yu Shaoting were left in the entire rest area.

"Shaoting, why don't we go back?" Zhang Wenqing saw that there were no outsiders, and said to Yu Shaoting.

After listening to Lin Qisan's role to audition, Zhang Wenqing had the urge to leave immediately with Yu Shaoting. It's just that I don't think this kind of behavior is good in front of the two of them, so I can't bear to say it until both of them leave.

"Sister Zhang, do you think the two of them are still decided?

"Regardless of whether it is an internal determination or not," Zhang Wenqing said with some dissatisfaction, "The two of them come to audition, and they are no different from internal determination." With their identity as investors and shareholders, who can compete with Xiao Yao? Both of them were originally from professional classes, and both have a lot of acting experience, and they are actors who can act in the public's impression. I see, this is a publicity stunt of theirs. ”

"I don't think so!" Yu Shaoting shook his head and said, "If it's a publicity stunt, at least the media must know about it, right? If they tell the media themselves, maybe they don't need to come in person at all, even if they are afraid that the media will find other people to verify and need to let other auditioners see them here, it should be in the afternoon when there are many people here, not the two of them in the first two." The two of us arrived early today, which they have no way of knowing, and if we were at normal audition times, we might not have met them at all. ”

"Well, even if it's not a gimmick. Zhang Wenqing said, "But you and Lin Qisan are competing for the same role! Let's not talk about Lin Qisan's identity as a shareholder of the production company, his relationship with Xiao Yao is Lin Qisan's acting skills, as well as his popularity, popularity, and external conditions, do you think you can compete for Lin Qisan?"

"It doesn't seem like there's much hope. Yu Shaoting smiled bitterly and nodded.

Although Lin Qisan has not performed as many film and television works as Yu Shaoting, and he has not yet played the absolute leading role, from Lin Qisan's performance in a supporting role, his background in the acting department, and the background of the actor's family, whether in the eyes of the industry or the public, Lin Qisan's word-of-mouth reputation in acting skills is completely better than Yu Shaoting, who transformed into a singer. Coupled with Lin Qisan's popularity without losing Yu Shaoting, his relationship with Xiao Yao, and the identity of the producer's company's shareholder, no matter from which point of view, Yu Shaoting did not win Lin Qisan's confidence.

"It's not just that there is little hope, I think it's hopeless at all, we just run for nothing!" Zhang Wenqing said, "Your preparation in the previous period is already a waste of time, we don't need to waste this morning's time." Let's go back now, maybe we can get other job opportunities in the company. ”

"Just leaving?" Yu Shaoting said, "What do we say? Say that I think this role has been decided, so we won't waste time, or do I think I can't compete with Lin Qisan, so I won't participate in the audition?"

"You stupid boy!" Zhang Wenqing said, "Of course you can't say it so bluntly! If you really want to say that, I just dragged you away, why wait for Zhao Rui and Lin Qisan to leave before telling you." Let's just say you're a little unwell and ask the casting studio to reschedule an audition. When I get back, I'll tell the casting studio that your schedule has changed and you won't be able to audition. It's okay for both sides!"

"You're still thoughtful," Yu Shaoting smiled and shook his head, "But I don't want to leave like that!"

"Why?" Zhang Wenqing said, "What are you doing here when you know that there is no hope?"

"I don't think it's a gimmick for Lin Qisan to audition, so even if his identity has an advantage, it's not decisive. Everyone's understanding of the role is different, and different directors have different requirements for the actors in each role. Even if Lin Qisan is better than me in acting and has better lines than me, in this role, I may not really be able to compete with Lin Qisan. Yu Shaoting said, "Even if I really didn't win this role in the end, but to participate in this audition, I don't feel that I ran for nothing." If I'm gone now and don't even attend the audition, it would be a real waste of time and completely pointless. ”

"Why isn't it a waste of time to go to the audition but not get the role?" Zhang Wenqing said.

"There are too many people who can't get roles in auditions, how can it be a waste of time?" Yu Shaoting said, "Before we came, although we didn't know that Lin Qisan would come to audition for a role like mine, but the producer didn't say that this role must be given to me, even the company can't guarantee that I can win this role, I also have the possibility of not being able to win this role, didn't I come to audition the same?"

"That's different!" Zhang Wenqing said, "At least the success rate is different! Without Lin Qisan, you still have some hope of winning this role, but with Lin Qisan, if you don't say that the success rate drops to zero, it's also very slim." ”

"There is little hope of success, but there will be rewards from auditions!" Yu Shaoting said, "You also know that after I signed in with the company, the company did not arrange for me to learn acting systematically. The acting knowledge I know now was learned from the crew and the director and other actors during filming. I think auditions are also a good learning opportunity, and I can talk to the director and the producer, maybe I can get some pointers and know what I am lacking in. ”

"Not necessarily!" Zhang Wenqing said, "I have also taken other actors through auditions for film and television projects. A lot of directors and producers don't necessarily teach you anything when they audition, they just let you act, and when you're done, you go back and wait for news. When there is a result, they either don't say the reason, or say it is a very general sentence that feels inappropriate, and you may not be able to know the shortcomings and learn something. ”

"Other directors or producers may be like that, but Xiao Yao is also in this audition, I think if I took the initiative to ask Xiao Yao, he would have told me and told me!" Yu Shaoting said.

"Why do you say that?" Zhang Wenqing said, "He Xiao Yao became famous at a young age, although his reputation in the circle is not arrogant and high, but he is famous for being lazy, and he often says this about himself in many variety shows." ”

"Sister Zhang, have you watched the latest issue of "The Character of an Actor" on Qiqu.com two days ago?" Yu Shaoting said, "Don't look at Xiao Yao as the only star director, and he is the youngest, but in that episode, he taught those newcomer actors the most." He not only helped them rehearse the stage play, but also told them what to explore the prescribed situation, experience method, and methodology, and also reminded those new actors to do their morning work. ”

"Really?" said Zhang Wenqing.

"Yes!" Yu Shaoting nodded, "I think, although Xiao Yao himself often says that he is a traffic star, a little fresh meat idol or something, and he doesn't mind cooperating with those pure traffic stars, but in fact, he is an out-and-out powerful faction, and he still hopes to cooperate with those who have strength." For example, in this audition, why do they put forward those requirements, isn't it to screen out candidates who are not good at business ability or attitude?"

Since he wants to cooperate with powerful people, then he must hope that the more powerful people there are, the better, so that his choices will naturally be wider. Yu Shaoting continued, "He is very lazy and will not take the initiative to do many things, but once others ask, he rarely refuses, and he is still very willing to teach others." Even if he doesn't tell me about acting in great detail during auditions, at least I can ask him if my lines can be without post-dubbing, or to what extent?

If I solve this problem as he says, when I take on the role in the future, maybe I can ask for my own voice instead of a voice actor. You also know that there are many post-dubbing actors in TV dramas now, but not every character in every drama uses post-dubbing. If my line skills can meet the requirements and I don't need to dub later, on the one hand, fans will be happier, not to mention, I am very beneficial in terms of job selection, and even in the salary offer. ”

"Okay! If you want to audition, I'll wait with you!" Zhang Wenqing was persuaded and nodded, "At most, it won't be an hour or so." Just because of the possibility that you can gain something, it's worth it if we can't take this role. ”

On the other side, in the audition room, Lin Qisan had already completed the audition. Xiao Yao and Chen Jun did not announce the results immediately, but just asked Lin Qisan to go back and wait for news. Lin Qisan didn't say anything, smiled and left.

After auditioning for two actors in a row, Chen Jun asked to take a break, and did not immediately call the staff to notify the third auditioner. The audition started early, and it was not yet the audition time for the third audition actor scheduled for the original schedule, so even if Xiao Yao didn't feel tired and felt that there was no need to rest, he still agreed.

Taking advantage of the break, Chen Jun asked Xiao Yao: "Mr. Xiao, is the final decision of all supporting actors really completely handed over to me?"

"Of course!" Xiao Yao nodded.

"Including the two characters of Zhou Bin and Sheng Wen?" Chen Jun asked again.

"Of course!" Xiao Yao nodded again, and continued, "Director Chen, what do you want to say?"

"Okay, then I'll say it straight!" Chen Jun said, "Zhao Rui plays Zhou Bin, and Lin Qisan plays Sheng Wen, both of which are acceptable in my opinion." Considering your relationship, as well as their identities, these two roles can now be decided. We can just take a look at the audition actors for the latter two roles, and even tell them not to audition, so as not to waste our time and energy. But if you don't consider your relationship and their identities, I won't guarantee you that these two roles must be the two of them now! The auditioning actors for the next two roles will not only continue to audition, but I will also carefully watch and choose. ”

"Of course you don't have to think about this!" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "You haven't signed a contract with our company yet, and you're not a member of our company, so you are not allowed to show favor to the boss of the company in advance! They only have a relationship with me, and they have nothing to do with you, so you just think about it from the aspect of this drama! The audition actors for the latter two roles, you not only have to continue to audition, but you also have to watch and pick carefully! Personally, I hope that you don't like these two roles!"

"What?" Chen Jun said strangely, "You guys are?"

"Don't worry!" Xiao Yao said, "This matter, I and the two of them have already agreed! In fact, I give you the right to decide all the supporting actors, and part of it is their reason." They didn't ask me to open the back door for them, but they were worried that I would deliberately not let them pass the audition, so I would leave the decision to you!"
