Perhaps because of preconceived ideas, Lin Xiaoguang came to Beiying this time to select the heroes and heroines of "Those Years", and they all selected the actors according to Cheng Yanxi and Ke Zhendong as templates.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the crew of "Those Years" began to audition.

The audition location was held in the auditorium of the Beijing Film Academy, the cameras were ready, with director Lin Xiaoguang and producer Huang Zhonglei as the chief examiners, and the auditions were conducted in three to five days according to the plan, and it is estimated that only thirty or forty auditions can be auditioned a day, because this audition is different from "People in Embarrassment", and the content that needs to be understood is relatively more, and the quality and requirements are obviously much higher.

Especially in the selection of the two male and female protagonists, you must know that Lin Xiaoguang directed "People in Embarrassment" before, but before the movie started, Huang Baoqiang and Xu Zheng had already been decided.

Therefore, the main task of this audition is to choose the heroine and heroine, the heroine Shen Jiayi is the most important, the first round is to select the heroine first, this time the heroine is not simply to let her make some actions, Lin Xiaoguang still values the appearance of the actress, what he wants is a first love face that can make people's eyes shine, as long as he can be tempted, the audience will probably buy it, especially the male audience.

In addition to her appearance, Lin Xiaoguang requires that the actress's temperament must be pure, but not every female student has a pure temperament, and not every female student will look good in whatever clothes she wears, especially when she wears an ordinary school uniform.

Since the filming location of "Those Years" is mainly in schools, and school uniforms are the most basic clothing, the male and female protagonists mainly wear school uniforms at school, because Taiwan is the same as domestic schools, and students basically wear school uniforms when they go to school.

In order to make this audition more successful, Lin Xiaoguang deliberately asked the staff to buy dozens of school uniforms used by most schools in Taiwan of different sizes from the garment factory, as a tool for the audition, these female students participating in the audition must wear school uniforms to audition, who wears the school uniform and dresses distinctively, who has a better chance of getting the precious role of the heroine.

In addition, Lin Xiaoguang also required every female student who auditioned for the crew of "Those Years" to tie a ponytail.

The people who came to participate in the audition all gathered at the door of the auditorium, came in batches, the first wave screened a total of thirty-five people, and the rest could only be told to come again tomorrow, these thirty-five people did not all flock to the large conference room, but stood outside the conference room, one by one, of course, before going in, go to the small room next to the conference room to change into school uniforms, only wearing school uniforms and ponytails can go in, if anyone refuses to wear school uniforms and ponytails, then they will be eliminated directly, the director does not listen to what actors, can the filming go smoothly at that time?

The so-called people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, Lin Xiaoguang only now found out that a person's appearance has a great relationship with dress, the first woman who came in looked at her age from her face and looked at at least twenty-two or three years old, but when she put on the school uniform of a white shirt and gray plaid skirt, the whole person seemed to be a few years younger, if you don't look at the face, just look at the whole, look at it from a distance, the good-looking female student in front of her is undoubtedly a pure girl who has just entered high school.

After the female student introduced herself, Lin Xiaoguang asked, "First of all, let me ask you the first question, can you accept the kiss scene?"

The female student didn't expect director Lin Xiaoguang to ask such a direct question, none of the questions that the director often asks during auditions in the past few days can be used, but she can't help but answer, so she had to tilt her head and think about it, and replied with little confidence: "I think...... I can accept a kiss scene if needed. ”

Lin Xiaoguang didn't say good or bad, but said: "It's okay, go back, I will notify you of the result." ”

Subsequently, Lin Xiaoguang and Huang Zhonglei auditioned for more than a dozen female students one after another, among these girls, some of them were pure and lovely, some were charming, and some were sexy and tall, but none of them satisfied Lin Xiaoguang.

The fifteenth auditioner came in, the girl was not very old, a little shy, very innocent, with big eyes like she could speak, childish, not as mature as the woman who came in before.

"Good director, good producer, my name is Zheng Shuang, and I am a student of the 07 acting class. ”

Looking at the girl in front of him who bowed his head slightly, and determined that she was Zheng Shuang, who later became popular with the role of Chu Yuxing in "Let's Go to See the Meteor Shower", Lin Xiaoguang calmed down a little before asking: "Zheng Shuang, right? Can you accept the kiss scene?"

The girl was silent for a moment, glanced at Lin Xiaoguang, and said in a slur manner: "Director, I'm ...... I can accept it. ”

Subsequently, Lin Xiaoguang asked Zheng Shuang two more questions one after another before letting her leave the scene.

As soon as Zheng Shuang's audition ended, Huang Zhonglei whispered: "Xiaoguang, what do you think of this female student named Zheng Shuang?"

Lin Xiaoguang asked disappreciably, "Brother Zhonglei, what do you think?"

Huang Zhonglei nodded with satisfaction: "I think it's okay, her appearance can make people shine, and her temperament is also very pure, which meets all your requirements for the heroine Shen Jiayi." ”

"I don't think so. ”

"Why?

"I can't tell, anyway, the feeling she gave me is still a little worse than Shen Jiayi, Shen Jiayi doesn't have to be particularly good-looking, but it has to make people feel comfortable. ”

Huang Zhonglei asked incredulously, "She makes you feel uncomfortable?"

Lin Xiaoguang shook his head, thought about it, and said calmly: "No, absolutely not, she does look good and has a very pure temperament, but she is still different from Shen Jiayi in my imagination." ”

Time passed quickly, Lin Xiaoguang and Huang Zhonglei then auditioned for ten more people, but after some auditions, they still didn't find the "Shen Jiayi" that Lin Xiaoguang wanted.

Lin Xiaoguang began to wonder if his vision was too bad when he reviewed the photos for the first time, and when he went back in the evening, he carefully recalled that the auditioners in the afternoon realized that it was not the problem of vision, it was the problem of the photos, not the cameraman or their own poor shooting skills, the reason came from themselves.

For example, there was a photo of a girl who looked beautiful and innocent before, but when Lin Xiaoguang saw the real person, the girl looked really good, but she was not as fresh and refined as it looked in the photo, and the sense of gap almost disappointed him, and the gap between reality and imagination was very big.

The audition, which was expected to end in five days, was completed in three days.

8 p.m.

Golden Homestead.

Lin Xiaoguang looked at the photos and materials of the female and male students of Beiying on the desktop in a daze.

In fact, the casting of the actor is okay, at least in Lin Xiaoguang's opinion, there are already a few male students who are qualified to enter the competition for the leading actor candidate, and the problem lies with the heroine.

I don't know if it's because Cheng Yanxi's Shen Jiayi is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Lin Xiaoguang has always selected actresses according to Cheng Yanxi's template.

As a result, after going around Beiying, Lin Xiaoguang did not find an actress who matched Cheng Yanxi's temperament.

There are a lot of female students who are more beautiful than Cheng Yanxi, but Lin Xiaoguang always feels that these female students are either too worldly, too charming, or too beautiful...... It's just not like Shen Jiayi......

"Ding-dong......"

The doorbell rang.

Lin Xiaoguang opened the door and saw that it was Huang Zhonglei, and there was a boy about 1.8 meters tall standing behind him, who looked about eighteen years old, and was carrying a bag of things in his hand.

Lin Xiaoguang said with a smile: "Brother Zhonglei, what wind blew you here, come in and sit." ”

Huang Zhonglei quipped: "Xiaoguang, brother, I didn't bother you uninvited, right?"

"Brother Zhonglei, where are you, can you come to my house, I'm too late to be happy, how can I bother. ”

After some pleasantries.

Huang Zhonglei and the shy boy, under the greeting of Lin Xiaoguang, took their seats separately.

Lin Xiaoguang looked at the boy who didn't talk much but was a little familiar, so he asked Huang Zhonglei: "Brother Zhonglei, what do you call this little brother?"

Huang Zhonglei said angrily: "Jingbao, why are you stunned? The director asked you, why don't you hurry up and introduce yourself to the director?"

The boy reacted, looked at Lin Xiaoguang busily, and brought the gift to the table: "Hello director, my name is Jing Boran, please accept a little gift." ”

Hearing this little brother say this, Lin Xiaoguang remembered that this young man named Jing Boran is nicknamed "Jing Bao", he is the annual champion of this year's talent show - "Come on Good Boy", he has just signed a contract with Huayi Brothers, and formed a "bobo" combination with Fu Xinbo.

Lin Xiaoguang waved his hand and said with a smile: "They are all their own brothers, you followed Zhong Lei to my house, what gifts do you bring, besides, let the director seem to be more angry, just call my brother when I see him in the future." ”

Jing Boran looked at this male director who was taller and more handsome than him, and he was much more approachable than he imagined, and his heart instantly relaxed a lot.

is no longer as restrained as when he first came in, Jing Boran immediately changed his words: "Okay, Brother Xiaoguang, then I will call you that in the future." ”

Without waiting for Huang Zhonglei to speak, Lin Xiaoguang had basically guessed Huang Zhonglei's intention to bring Jing Boran to his house this time.

Huang Zhonglei got straight to the point: "Xiaoguang, I'm coming over today, and I'm not going to beat around the bush with you, what do you think of Jingbao?"

Lin Xiaoguang nodded as he said, carefully looking at the boy named Jing Boran in front of him.

After a while, Lin Xiaoguang asked Jing Boran: "Xiaojing, how old are you?"

"Guide...... Ah no, Brother Xiaoguang, I'm eighteen years old. ”

Looking at Jing Boran sitting precariously, Lin Xiaoguang sighed with emotion: "I won the national championship of a good boy at the age of eighteen, and the starting point is very high." ”

When Huang Zhonglei heard that there was a play, he also smiled and said: "Xiaoguang, I won't tell you, I came today mainly to recommend Jingbao to you and let him play the male number one Ke Jingteng, what do you think?"

If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, Lin Xiaoguang had long expected Huang Zhonglei to say this.

Moreover, Lin Xiaoguang pondered that Ke Jingteng, the male number one, had no problem letting Jing Boran play it.

Jing Boran is at this age, but he has a maturity that does not match his age, and his plasticity is indeed very strong, and he can play both a student and a social person.

"It's okay, Brother Zhonglei, you, the producer, have personally spoken for him, if I have any opinions as a young director, let Xiaojing play Ke Jingteng." ”

"However, I have to make the decision for the casting of this female number one. ”

"No problem, do you have any good candidates?"

"Yes!"
