This night, Mu Ye and Xiaobai both slept deeply.

It wasn't until more than twelve o'clock at noon that the two of them were woken up by Zheng Ruoying to have lunch.

When Mu Ye woke up, he only felt that his whole body was sore, especially his back, and he even felt swollen and itchy!

After the meal, after Xiaobai gave Mu Ye a back press on his back, this situation was slightly alleviated......

What made Mu Ye a little crying and laughing was that after Xiaobai went through this incident, he followed him inch by his side, as if he was worried that he would do something stupid again.

Mu Ye and Xie Baoju then talked on the phone, and the two sides went to audition three days later, and he and the screenwriter would review it together.

Three days passed in a flash, and Mu Ye's body gradually recovered, but the experience of that night, that feeling of despair and helplessness, was like being imprinted in the soul and could never be forgotten.

On the day of the audition, Mu Ye got up early in the morning, opened the window, and the morning sunlight shone down from the bright clouds in the sky, translucent and fresh.

Before leaving, Mu Ye carefully read the script again to make sure that every detail was clear.

The location of the audition was naturally in Yan Opera, and when Mu Ye had not yet arrived, Xie Baoju and the others were already waiting in the rehearsal room.

"Torch...... Why are there all of a sudden increase in audition candidates, and it's still a freshman?" spoke a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses, a grim face, and thin lips.

His name is Xu Tao, and he is the screenwriter of the script "Man in the Box", and he also has great expectations for this short film!

If it weren't for the good relationship with the elders of Xie Baoju's parents, he would not have let Xie Baoju, a newcomer, direct this script.

Xie Baoju smiled and said, "It's one of my roommates, although I don't know each other very well, it's not good to refuse directly." ”

"Roommate...... Is the acting good?" Xu Tao frowned and said, not very satisfied with his decision.

Xie Baoju spat out a puff of cigarette and smiled casually: "At least he is a guy who is very serious about acting." ”

"Well, let's try it first, if your acting skills are not good, you can't be blamed!" The person who spoke was also Zhu Chengzhu, a student of Yan Opera, from the Department of Photography, who had a good relationship with Xie Baoju, but he had graduated for more than a year.

In the past, he had been in charge of the second and third cameras with the small crew, and the camera was very slippery, this time Xie Baoju invited him to come over to do the main photography, and he came over without saying a word!

Xu Tao said noncommittally: "Then try it......"

……

It didn't take long for Mu Ye and Lou Liang, another senior who auditioned, to arrive at the rehearsal room.

After introducing each other, Mu Ye also knew the identities of several people.

Director Xie Baoju, screenwriter Xu Tao, and photographer Lou Liang were the judges of this audition.

Senior Lou Liang...... It's your competitor this time!

"Xinghui, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Lou Liang smiled and stretched out his hand towards Mu Ye, looking at this opponent with burning eyes.

Lou Liang is a third-year student in the Yenching Performance Department and thinks he has outstanding acting skills...... Just didn't have a good chance.

He didn't have much interest in short films, and Xie Baoju was also casual when he was looking for him.

But after reading the amazing script of "Man in the Box", he was imperative for this role!

This is definitely a script that can win awards! The protagonist Han Cheng is also a very tense and expressive character!

He hopes to use this role as a springboard to enter the showbiz in one fell swoop.

It's just that I didn't expect that when filming was about to start, there would be another accident, and another person would come to compete with me for this role.

Fortunately, he is only a freshman, and it has only been a year since he has been learning to act, and Lou Liang didn't pay attention to it at all.

"Fortunately, senior, please advise. Mu Ye also responded with a smile.

"It's all acquaintances, and I'm not a big crew, so let's just come at will. Xie Baoju approached and said with a smile.

"Let's not waste any time, let's just start the audition...... The most important part of this script is, of course, the performance being locked in a box. ”

"You can choose any excerpt for the performance, who will come first?" Xie Baoju asked with a smile.

Lou Liang smiled, stepped forward and said, "I'll come first......

Mu Ye glanced at Lou Liang, there was no objection, it doesn't matter who comes first and who comes second, the important thing is to be able to impress the judges!

Xie Baoju saw that Mu Ye had no objection and said with a smile: "That's okay, Ah Liang, you are ready to prepare, and we will start performing in ten minutes!"

Lou Liang nodded, picked up the script and read it again, and Mu Ye also went to the side to close his eyes and recuperate......

"Lou Liang, this guy just doesn't give his junior a chance!" screenwriter Zhu Chengzhu said with a smile.

He could see Lou Liang's intention to perform first, one was to let Mu Ye see his acting skills and hit his confidence, and the other reason was to let Mu Ye's performance be influenced by him.

As long as Mu Ye unconsciously imitates Lou Liang in his performance, it is equivalent to picking up people's teeth, and the judges will subconsciously deduct points.

"I see this Lou Liang more, after all, after studying acting for two more years, his acting skills will definitely be better than that Mu Ye!" Xu Tao said in a deep voice.

"Well, let's take a look first, based on acting skills, success or failure, fair and just!" Xie Baoju said with a smile.

Ten minutes later, the show officially began.

Lou Liang arrived on the stage and lay on the ground, Mu Ye also opened his eyes and watched intently.

He wanted to know what kind of performance this senior was......

Lou Liang's excerpt is a clip when he just woke up.

The moment he opened his eyes, Lou Liang's body trembled, revealing a frightened expression.

He fumbled left and right, his expression becoming more and more flustered.

"Anyone...... Help!"

……

"That's right! The emotions are in place!" Xu Tao said with a smile on his face.

Zhu Chengzhu also nodded and replied: "It's really good, especially that frightened expression, it's very infectious!

Xie Baoju looked at Lou Liang in the performance with burning eyes, and said softly: "Look again!"

On the stage, Lou Liang, who was performing, became more and more frightened, and he began to struggle, trying to open the box with his hands and feet, but in vain.

His face was even slightly distorted, and the trembling of his body became more and more intense!

Speaking from the heart, Lou Liang's performance is indeed good, at least among the students of the acting department.

But Mu Ye frowned when he looked at it......

His performance...... Isn't it a bit superficial?
