Chapter 132: The character in hand flies again
When Gu Yi returned to the living room with a glass of water, he had already prepared a draft in his heart about how to refuse Ke Yi.
Who knows, when she sat down across from him, she listened to him speak, but what she said was not this.
"I came here this time to audition for a role, directed by Anderson Peter, a futuristic sci-fi theme, in which I play a Chinese scientist. Although it is a supporting role, it is also one of the key characters in the play. β
Anderson Pitt is a veteran director who has made science fiction movies, and his reputation is excellent, it is not easy to get this audition, Gu Er blinked, "It's already auditioned?"
Ke Yi smiled proudly, "If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't come!"
"Look at you proudly!" said this, Gu Er was also happy for him in his heart.
Although she can't accept his feelings, as a friend, she sincerely hopes that his career can develop smoothly.
In the past two years, Ke Yi's career in China can be said to have reached its peak, and it is natural to expand its territory abroad.
The bright moon of that year not only led the ratings of the TV station, but even the subsequent online broadcasts were also the first in the same period, so it was natural for Ke Yi to win the title of "Emperor of Vision".
This achievement has raised Ke Yi's prestige to a new level.
After all, there are not many actors in movies and TV series who can reach such a level!
His appeal is not adulterated at all!
Of course, she should have been a well-deserved "queen", but she had already gone abroad to develop at that time, so although she was nominated in the end, she was not pushed to the highest position by the organizers.
Although it is a pity, this is her own choice, so she can only admit it.
Taking a step back, despite not getting that title, her acting skills have been recognized by domestic audiences.
Mingyue has brought her a lot of follow-up influence, in the past two years, in addition to her original fans in China, there have also been a large number of fans overseas to support, most of whom knew her because of Mingyue's historical drama.
So on social media, they sometimes affectionately call her "our princess", which moved Gu Er very much.
ββ¦β¦ I don't say this to show you off, but I have good news about you. β
Seeing her unexpectedly look at it, Ke Yi said with a low smile: "There is also a Chinese female character in this drama, because she plays a lot of opposite scenes with me, so Director Peter specially asked my opinion, and I recommended you to him! It just so happened that he had also seen the film you starred in, and he was very interested in you, so he immediately agreed." As long as you are interested, please contact the crew to audition!"
"I believe that with your strength, it will not be difficult to conquer Peter!"
Ke Yi is very confident in her.
Gu Er was happy with his trust, and of course, he was also grateful that he was still thinking about her at this time, and this was indeed a very good opportunity.
But the schedule is very problematic.
"I also want to go, but I'm going to join Director Smith's crew soon, and the timing seems to be conflicting......"
Ke Yi was stunned, and then whistled excitedly, "Yes, is that Smith I thought?"
Gu Er sneered, "How many other directors are Smith in HLW?"
"Tsk! You're really getting more and more impressive! It's not been long before you can film him! Not bad!"
Saying that, he was also embarrassed, "But Peter's script and character design are really good, it's a pity to give up! Otherwise, I'll say hello to Peter, you go to the audition first, I think after he has faced your acting skills, maybe he will relax the conditions and move the role of that role back, so that the time should be about the same!"
Gu Er immediately shook his head, "Don't do it, I really don't like drama." But thank you for thinking so much about me, but forget it!"
She said this, but Ke Yi still didn't give up, grinding to make her agree to at least audition.
Gu Er doesn't know what to say, the audition is not difficult, but if Director Peter thinks she can, what if he really wants her to act?
Ke Yi leaned over and said: "I said everything, I will explain your situation to the director, he is now worried about finding a suitable actor, maybe he doesn't care at all!"
Gu Er really couldn't be worn by him, besides, she knew that he had good intentions, so in the end she could only say: "I know, so let's do it, I'll ask my agent to contact the crew of Director Peter, if he has no opinion, I'll go to audition, it's always okay!"
Ke Yi suddenly smiled, "Don't worry, with me, what can be the problem!"
After he left, Gu Er called Lu Ju to tell her about it, and told her the phone number Ke Yi gave her.
Lu Ju has always been amazingly mobile, and he was contacted almost in the afternoon of the same day.
ββ¦β¦ Let you go to the audition at nine o'clock tomorrow, I told you everything, but the other party said that he didn't mind. In that case, let's give it a try!"
Gu Er supported his forehead, "But Director Smith ...... over there"
Lu Ju interrupted her, "Don't worry, if the audition is really successful, I will mediate this matter." I won't let the director have an opinion about you because of this! This kind of opportunity for good dramas to come to the door one after another is unique at present, don't give up easily!"
"Okay, then Sister Lu has worked hard for you, I'll go to the audition first tomorrow!"
With Lu Ju's words, Gu Yi was relieved.
According to Ke Yi's previous prompts, she prepared well all night and rushed to the interview location early the next morning.
Director Peter personally presided over the audition, and it can be seen that although this is a supporting role, he attaches great importance to it.
Gu Er's performance did not live up to his attention.
After two years of experience, she has such a benefit, even if there is no more annoying thing, but once she is in front of the camera, she will automatically switch to the role in the play.
And today's audition, she also attaches great importance to it, so she naturally does her best to act!
When she finishes the last shot, pauses for a few seconds, converges and bows!
At the same time, Director Peter's applause also rang out, and he unabashedly praised: "Very good performance! Although it is a bit ...... to say that" He shrugged his shoulders, and then stretched out his arms enthusiastically, "No matter what, but you have indeed greatly surprised me, compared to your previous performance, I dare to say that you have improved a lot!"
Gu Er smiled and stepped forward to give him a hug.
To say that she doesn't care at all that the underestimation in his first half of the sentence is fake, but now, she is also used to the prejudice of these people against Chinese actors.
However, she believes that her performance will change some of their minds!
Because the audition went well, the conversation that followed was quite pleasant.
After setting the time to sign the contract, Gu Er said goodbye and left.
When she went out, she called Lu Ju and Ke Yi respectively, and both of them were very happy, of course, although the latter's excitement was already under control, it was still very obvious.
Gu Er was a little helpless.
She guessed she knew why.
The role she wants to play in this drama is the wife of the character in Ke Yi's play, the relationship between the two is very good, and when they were chased and killed, the wife also died to cover her husband's escape, which caused her husband to blacken......
Presumably, because of the relationship between the two in the play, Ke Yi tried his best to persuade her to audition for this role from the beginning!
Frankly speaking, Gu Er felt that this was a bit naΓ―ve.
Even if the wives in the film love their husbands again, it's just the role they play!
I don't know if her refusal has hit Ke Yi too hard, causing him to look forward to this fake relationship in the play!
Thinking of these, Gu Er couldn't help but be embarrassed.
If she could, she really wanted to maintain a simple friendship with Ke Yi.
But presumably, the two will eventually become estranged one day.
But before that, Gu Er will still cherish this friendship.
The time when the contract was signed was before she entered the crew directed by Smith, and Lu Ju was not idle in the past two days, she had already negotiated the time to join the crew with Director Peter, just after the drama on her side was completed.
Gu Er really admires her ability!
I thought everything was going well, but the night before she was about to sign the contract, the crew on Director Peter's side suddenly called, "...... We really regret that for some other reason the role that you had agreed to play had to be cancelled......"
On the other side of the phone, the staff sincerely apologized and took it very seriously.
Gu Er listened here, and his eyes couldn't help but be gloomy.
In fact, before the contract is formally signed, it is not uncommon for the other party to change his hexagram. There are many reasons, maybe the director has found a more suitable actor, or maybe the role has been topped......
But she would say that the apology of this staff member is definitely the most sincere of them all.
This probably shows the degree of pity of the other party.
Then the second reason should be.
Or the investor or someone else that the director couldn't refuse, and put out another actor to replace her in that role......
Hanging up the phone, Gu Yi was silent for a while.
It's absolutely impossible not to be angry, but she also knows that this kind of thing can't be avoided in the circle, whether it's at home or abroad.
After slowly calming down her emotions, she called Lu Ju.
Hearing the news, Lu Ju was also silent on the other end of the phone for a long time.
Gu Yi smiled bitterly and comforted her.
Lu Ju was helpless, "I should have comforted you when this happened, why did we turn it upside down here!"
Gu Er pretended to be relaxed, "I just went to try out the camera, and your repeated communication and shooting time in the past two days is really hard, but it's a pity that it fell short...... Luckily, I'm still going to be on Smith's crew for a short time, so let's leave it at that, and use this time to contact other good scripts. β
Now, it's not okay not to comfort yourself so much.
Lu Ju cheered up and encouraged Gu Er, and even more encouraged himself, and after saying a few words, the two hung up.
As for Ke Yi's side, it made Gu Yi a little embarrassed.
