The Seventeenth Audition Insider

The auditions for the main roles in the TV series "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty" were all selected by Kyoto Film Studio and Hui Min Film and Television Company.

Many of the leaders and actors in the Kyoto Film Studio came out of the Kyoto Film Academy, so the Kyoto film industry called them the Kyoto Film Gang.

On the contrary, most of the people from Huimin Film and Television Company are from Huaxia Drama Academy, so the actors they choose are basically graduates of Huaxia Drama Academy.

As we all know, the people of Kyoto Film Academy and Huaxia Drama Academy have always been a little bit at odds with each other, and the contradictions on the surface cannot be seen, but there are a lot of rivalries in the secret.

Chen Guozhong and Han Dejiang, as the persons in charge of the audition of the main actors, actually secretly had some signs of nonsense in their hearts.

The remaining two assistant directors and one screenwriter are responsible for the selection of small supporting roles. And the character that Huang Bo is preparing to audition for, Dongfang Shuo, belongs to the more outstanding one of the small supporting roles.

Dongfang Shuo, a famous writer in the Western Han Dynasty, was the minister with the most sense of humor during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and left many legends among the people. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne and conquered the Quartet. Dongfang Shuo recommended himself in a book, and he worshiped as a lang.

He has a witty personality, quick words, funny and wise, often laughing and laughing in front of Emperor Wu, although he has the ambition to make contributions, but the emperor at that time always regarded him as a courtier, not to be reused.

Such a person is ostensibly a traitor, a courtier who pleases the king with sophistry and funny jokes. It is very easy for Huang Bo to perform this feeling, because there is no shortage of such characters in the market, and he has a lot of objects to learn from.

The most difficult thing is how the actor shows Dongfang Shuo's deep emotions, judging from Dongfang Shuo's life deeds, he is a scholar with great ambitions, because the world is difficult, he can only please the king through his eloquence and funny, hoping to get the opportunity to use his talents, but he cannot be reused until he dies, and he is a tragic character who is ridiculous on the surface.

There are not many actors who audition for Dongfang Shuo, except for Huang Bo, they are all actors who have just graduated. As long as he can show the talent and talent hidden in Dongfang Shuo's funny appearance during the audition, this role will be safe for him.

But the role that Peng Yichen auditioned for was not so easy to get, because he wanted to play the role of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his youth and youth.

The middle-aged and elderly Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is played by Zhao Jianguo, a leading actor in the Kyoto Film Studio, whose acting skills are known for his solid and steady skills, and he has played the role of an emperor three times.

But because Zhao Jianguo is 48 years old, he really can't play the role of the young Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Only then did he open the audition, hoping to find a young actor with outstanding acting skills to ensure that the performance of the young Han Wudi and the performance of the middle-aged and elderly Han Wudi would not be disconnected.

It can be said that the main task of today's public audition is to select an actor who is suitable to play the role of the young Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Huimin Film and Television Company is an investor in "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty", and Peng Yichen and Huang Bo got the script ten days ago.

The two of them not only wrote tens of thousands of words of character biographies according to the characteristics of the characters in the script, but also read a lot of history books during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. While figuring out the psychology of the characters, the two of them played with each other, and basically figured out the roles they auditioned for. So this time they came to the audition, and both of them were confident.

It wasn't until they entered the movie studio that the two realized that the places where they auditioned were not together. said that after the audition, the first to go out waited at the gate and then went out, and the two separated and followed the staff into the audition venue.

Peng Yichen's side is obviously the place where the main role and important supporting roles are auditioned, and there are only a dozen actors waiting for auditions standing scattered in a large studio. He didn't talk to anyone, he leaned on a pillar on the side alone, closed his eyes and silently recalled the lines in the script.

"You are the group actor named Peng Yichen of Huimin Film and Television?"

Peng Yichen opened his eyes, and there was a young man standing in front of him who was about 1.8 meters tall, with a square Chinese face, tall eyebrow bones and nose bridge, and he was also a talent in terms of appearance.

"Yes, I'm Peng Yichen, what's the matter with me?" Although the young man in front of him was silent on the surface, the contempt and provocation in his words were very obvious.

If Peng Yichen was really a twenty-year-old young man, he might be angry because of his words, but after all, he was really an old fritter who had been in the entertainment industry for more than 20 years, and he responded lightly, as if he hadn't heard the ridicule in the other party's words at all.

"Hehe, I heard that you are also here to audition for the role of the young Han Wu Emperor Liu Che?" The young man tilted his head slightly, and said proudly: "It's a pity that this role must be played by me, you came for nothing today." ”

Peng Yichen looked around playfully, he didn't expect that a little person like himself would be noticed quickly, and he also played a trick of "borrowing a knife to kill".

When he walked into the door of the film studio just now, this young man had a face-to-face with him, at that time he obviously didn't know himself at all, but now he seems to be very familiar with Peng Yichen, and it would be strange if no one behind his back provoked him to stir up trouble.

"I'm just here to learn whether I can join the group and which role to play, it's up to the director and producer to decide, so I don't have to worry about it. Peng Yichen replied without being salty, closed his eyes and didn't speak again, as if the young man in front of him didn't exist.

The entertainment industry is a vanity fair, how many people's interests intersect in it, and those who tear their faces face to face with people are just rookies who have just entered the entertainment industry, and those who can really gain a foothold in this place are old foxes, if there is no deep conflict of interest, it is impossible for anyone to plan to direct such a good show.

To put it bluntly, I just want this young man to come forward and suppress the right to speak in the crew of "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty" by Huimin Film and Television Company, and by the way, test whether he Peng Yichen is a dragon or a worm.

If he's weak, he'll have a leg up until he withdraws from the audition, and if he's tough, he'll lower his image in the minds of directors and producers. But unexpectedly, Peng Yichen was neither soft nor hard, and quietly pushed back this temptation.

Retreating doesn't have to be weak, it can also be more accurate and ruthless when punching.

"Be quiet, be quiet!" Before the young man could react, a staff member walked out of a small door on the left side of the studio, and inside the door was the audition for the main role today, a small conference room.

"Anyone who hears my name should immediately say 'yes' and line up and follow me in for the audition. Those who shout three times and do not answer are considered to have given up the audition, and there is no problem. The staff member glanced around, but no one spoke. Only then did I pick up the audition list in my hand.

"Wang Yongqing!", "To!".

"Li Chun!", "Here!"

"Peng Yichen", "Here!"......

Eighteen young actors were called out and followed the crew into the conference room in turn.

At this time, Peng Yichen knew that the young man who came to scold him for no reason just now was called Wang Yongqing.

After they all entered the conference room, the staff closed the small door, and the rest of the actors started chatting again.

"Lao Chen, this matter is not the hegemony of our Kyoto Film Studio, Wang Jin'an, Wang Lao's status in the Chinese film industry you don't know, he asked our director, can our director refuse? ”

Han Dejiang, the producer of "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty," was more emotional, and his loud voice echoed in his office upstairs in the audition room, and the actors waiting for the audition downstairs knew nothing about it.

"I already know what you said, and I am also the ultimate elder Wang, admiring his contribution to Chinese films. But this TV series is very important to both of us, and if the acting skills of the protagonist are not guaranteed, it is better to disband the crew now, and don't waste time and money here. ”

"I know your artistic principles as a director, so let's say between the two of us first, Wang Lao's grandson auditioned today, as long as his acting skills are passing, let him play the young Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. If his acting skills are a mess, you can let whoever you want to play this role, and I will never support you. ”

"Alas, well. ”

Chen Guozhong sighed deeply. Although he is already a big director who has won the highest box office record in China. But the status in the film industry is not too high.

Among the fifth-generation directors of China, almost everyone else has won some important awards at home and abroad, but Chen Guozhong has not even won a consolation prize for so many years.

is because he is a commercial actor who is not treated well by the older generation of directors in the circle and thinks that his films are not artistic.

Wang Jinan is the pillar of the fourth generation of Chinese directors, and it can be said that he is a character like Taishan Beidou in the film industry, Chen Guozhong doesn't want to offend such a big Buddha because of a TV series, in the final analysis, his main business is still a film director.

Chen Guozhong and Han Dejiang's short words have decided the fate of most of today's auditioners, but these young actors don't know that their efforts have all been useless.

The two walked downstairs one after another, entered the center of today's audition venue and sat down. It just so happened that the first batch of actors who auditioned today walked into the conference room one after another.

The audition for the young Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty began first.

In the conference room, except for Chen Guozhong and Han Dejiang, who sat firmly behind a row of tables in the center of the venue, everyone else was preparing the props needed for the audition.

After all, not every actor can perform in front of the air without physical objects, and the director also needs to see through the camera whether the actor's state in the camera meets his own requirements.

"Director Chen and Han Producer are all ready. A staff member came over and whispered.

"Okay, then the audition can begin, you go and ask Mr. Zhao to come down. "The screen of Chen Guozhong and other camera monitors is already working normally.

Only then did he call the staff and ask him to bring down another old man from the office on the second floor.

He is the main screenwriter of "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty", Zhao Chongzhi. Many years ago, he became a well-known screenwriter in the circle.

He has won the Best Screenplay Award at the Yanhuang Film Festival 3 times, and his best skills are writing scripts for movies and TV series with historical themes, and he has a very in-depth understanding of historical figures and the details of historical events.

Originally, Zhao Chongzhi rarely wrote TV series because he was too old in recent years, and even wrote very few movie scripts.

This time, it was the director of the Kyoto Film Studio who personally came to the door to plead, and then he wrote the TV series "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty". When Chen Guozhong and Han Dejiang saw him come out, they both stood up and waited for the old gentleman to sit down firmly before returning to their respective seats.

The audition for the main role in "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty" officially began, and Peng Yichen was full of excitement and ready to show his superb acting skills and full preparation, but he didn't know that it was impossible for him to get the role he wanted......
