Chapter 38: Simple and Crude

PS: Today is still a change, I will try to complete all the changes in the afternoon and evening, and I will resume two changes tomorrow.

Tang Feng's words really played a big role.

With the help of the supporting police who arrived later, the big guy worked for nearly two hours before finally evacuating part of the crowd.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, a group of people rushed to the venue non-stop and started the official audition.

Although it is simple to say, in fact, the situation at that time was much more complicated.

They were only temporary, evacuating the crowd gathered in the shopping street, and there are still many people coming from all directions for various reasons.

And some of the people who were evacuated at the beginning just walked around the neighborhood casually, and then they wanted to return to the mall and see the audition with their own eyes.

Fortunately, Hunter immediately asked for support from above, and there were enough police to support him, and a human wall was built on the periphery of the entire commercial street, so he reluctantly stopped these people outside.

In order not to make a big mess, Hunter almost used all his tricks, rushed here early in the morning, and did not withdraw the police with the police officers who were already tired of dogs until midnight.

Tang Feng couldn't do anything about what was happening outside, because the audition had already begun, and anyway, with Hunter and thousands of police officers to maintain it, he wouldn't bother to worry about it.

Originally, they planned to select only 600 people a day, so they were divided into three shopping malls, which is 200 people in each shopping mall.

On average, each person takes three minutes, and excluding the rest time, it takes about 12 hours to complete the audition of the day.

However, the plan did not change quickly, and now the situation has greatly exceeded expectations, and the previous plan is useless, so everyone urgently discussed it, and changed it to one minute of performance time per person.

With so many people coming to the election, Tang Feng can't be perfect anyway, since he can't satisfy everyone, then he can only satisfy some people first.

Therefore, the elimination rate in the first round is set to a super high 95%!

As long as they can be promoted, he plans to set up personal files for them in the form of talent reserves when he establishes an economic company, and he can contact them at any time when he needs it in the future.

Through observation, he has already seen a rough idea, most of these people who come have no practical experience, and the most suitable ones are only to be group performers, and they must be the top part.

His company is about to be established, and for the sake of development, he also hopes to have a group of professional performers in his own hands.

In this way, whether it is his own needs or cooperation with other companies in the future, he can get great convenience and more reassuring for him.

As for the ultra-high elimination rate, it's not that his requirements are too high, and the group performance also requires acting skills, well, he thinks that even if there is only a 10% pass rate, it is not low!

In Hollywood, even if you are playing tricks, you must have a professional attitude and a certain professional quality, otherwise you won't even have the opportunity to do group performances!

Of course, he hopes to find some young people with great potential through the audition, whether it is actors, directors, producers, or crew members such as photographers.

And these people will also be his biggest capital in Hollywood, God knows how many big names are hidden in these seemingly ordinary people!

In his previous life, he studied the history of Hollywood, and at that time he was very strange why many big stars and directors only gradually began to develop in the early 90s.

After asking some senior filmmakers, I learned that this was related to the social environment at that time, and the 90s was the time when the country's economy was developing greatly, and the economic prosperity also led to the unprecedented development of the film industry.

As more and more money is invested in films, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and the corresponding opportunities are getting more and more.

It is for this reason that many people can have the opportunity to devote themselves to the film and television industry and gradually grow into the backbone of Hollywood.

It was also from this time that Hollywood, a huge film factory, began to become more professional, standardized and industrialized, and finally formed the same appearance as in the previous life.

Even Tang Feng himself felt that he was really lucky, he was reborn at this important historical node, if he didn't spread his arms and do a big job, he would feel panicked.

Now that the net has been opened, he can see how many big fish he can catch in this net!

As the main venue, the preparations for the comic shopping were still very sufficient, and the candidates were all taken to the side door and waited in a long line according to the number plates they received.

After entering through the side door, they will walk through a audition passage sealed with a temporary partition and go directly to the audition site.

The examiners are all in place, and the reporters of various TV stations and newspapers have also set up long guns and short cannons, waiting for the big drama to start.

When he first saw these media, Tang Feng was still very surprised, and after Qiao Sen's explanation, he learned that except for the reporters from the local TV station they invited, the others came through various channels to report on this unprecedented scale of auditions as soon as possible.

He can't do anything about these media reporters, people come from afar to cheer, and he can't drive them away, so he can only let them report.

Due to the haste of preparation and the lack of fame, Tang Feng did not invite those high-ranking professionals. It's likely that he won't be able to invite him, so he won't have to work that hard, and all the judges are all people around him.

He is in charge of the manga here, and together with Qiao Sen and Ken, he forms a panel of judges.

The other two groups of judges, led by Wilton and William respectively, brought their respective mall managers, plus George, who played the killer, and Kane, the owner of the Hero Bar, hurried into the battle.

Fortunately, there was no media to join in the fun, but there was no pressure, and the main pressure was concentrated on Tang Feng's side.

As for the criteria for passing, it is quite simple, that is, there are no standards!

Those who can see it will pass, and those that can't be seen will be eliminated!

No verbose, no nonsense, simple and rude, cruel and direct!

Anyway, everyone who comes to the election will submit a data sheet, and Tang Feng will screen them one by one in the future, not for any fairness and justice, but because he doesn't want to have big fish that are missed.

Really talented people will not have stage fright at this time, they will naturally perform better, and if they can win the favor of the examiner, they can pass the primary selection.

"First of all, I would like to thank all the friends from the media for paying attention to me and my films, and for working tirelessly to get here and make a special trip to cover our audition. ”

"As a token of appreciation, we will send someone to assist you with the shooting, and you can also ask directly if you have any needs, and we will try our best to meet your requests. ”

"Considering the long time of the audition, the department store will provide all the convenience, and will also prepare a sumptuous lunch and dinner for everyone, which will not make our media friends go hungry to report. ”

Everything is ready, as the most important planner, Tang Feng first expressed his gratitude to the media who attended the meeting.

This kind of programmed politeness must still be done, at least it will not make people pick out anything, otherwise if you offend these uncrowned kings, there will be no good fruit to eat.

He also made a small joke, which caused a burst of laughter below, which immediately eased the originally slightly tense atmosphere a lot.

After the greetings, Tang Feng directly turned to the topic, "Okay, time is limited, presumably you are all in a hurry, I won't take up everyone's time." ”

"I announce the official start of the audition for the creator of "Killer Tragedy"!"

"The first candidate, please!"

The first contestant to take the stage was a white guy in his twenties, and before the start, he bragged to the contestants behind him, "Haha, brothers! My chance has come, I am so lucky, I am the first to participate in the audition, I am going to decide the protagonist!"

"Remember me, I'm Steve from HSD, a big star of the future!"

Many of the people who came had participated in some similar castings, and although they had never seen such a big scene before, they also knew some of the unspoken rules, so many people were dismissive of his sneering.

"At first glance, you are a rookie, tens of thousands of people are waiting behind, unless the director has a problem with his brain, he will choose you as the protagonist!"

"The appearance is too ordinary, the language is exaggerated, the education is uneducated, and the bad reviews!"

"With his virtue, he still wants to be the protagonist? look, he must have come out crying!"

It turns out that the eyes of the masses are really bright, and he really came out crying......

When Steve walked in the audition channel, he still looked full of confidence, and his mind was full of some unrealistic fantasies.

But the moment he walked out of the passage, he was shot at by countless spears and short guns, and his mind was suddenly blank with flashing lights.

Even he didn't know how he got to the front of the judges, or it was only under Tang Feng's kind reminder that he stammered and introduced himself.

"I, my name is Steve, and I'm from HSD. ”

"I, I love movies so much, I've always dreamed of being the main character in movies. ”

"Thank you to the director for giving me this opportunity, I will definitely play this role with my heart, and I will definitely not disappoint everyone. ”

Tang Feng was almost not angry, "Okay, this guy is not reliable than Ken!

"Steve, I haven't heard of it, and it seems that he doesn't have any real skills, only rhetoric, elimination!"

Poor Steve has just adapted to the atmosphere of the scene, and is about to show it in front of everyone, "I have learned acting, I participated in an acting training class last year, and even the main instructor praised me for being very talented, I will definitely be a good actor in the future, now I will give you a performance......"

Tang Feng shook his head, interrupted Steve, who had just posed, and said, "Sorry, everyone only has one minute, now the time that belongs to you has come, it's a pity, you were eliminated!"

After speaking, he ignored Steve's defense and shouted loudly, "Next!"

Before the words fell, the second candidate, who had already been prepared, walked out of the audition channel. The on-site staff helped the heartbroken Steve out of the venue.

The reality is so cruel, if Steve didn't talk so much nonsense and went straight into the performance state as soon as he came up, maybe he would have made a good start and become the first person to pass the test.

But he is so inexperienced, only one minute, he has at least twenty seconds, and so much useless nonsense, isn't there no time.

In fact, the requirements for such an audition are not very strict, he can introduce himself after the performance, or he simply does not need to introduce himself to the examiners, the information form he just filled out has long been placed in front of the examiner, which is completely redundant.

There is only one chance, and for this kind of person who can't even figure out the situation, Tang Feng will never waste more time for him.

I didn't even do my homework well, and I fantasized about soaring into the sky, something like that can only happen in fairy tales!
