4. Chapter IV
After more than 70 auditions a day, the director team and screenwriters are already very tired.
Auditions are basically a consideration of the actors' performance of this AI script, after all, unless there is a very good studio to analyze the AI script, everyone's script is similar, and the actions that come out of the table are similar, and there will be nothing new at all.
So when Li Zhetian appeared in the audition room, everyone probably guessed that he was the second male lead this time.
Li Zhetian's family invested 50 million star coins in "Blood War" this time, accounting for half of the crew's funds. In fact, at the beginning, the director left Li Zhetian with the role of the leading actor, after all, Li Zhetian has been more popular recently, and his acting skills are okay, and it is more than enough to be a leading actor.
However, no one expected that Li Zhetian would fall in love with the role of the second male lead.
It can only be said that the other actors who came to audition for the second male lead were really unlucky.
- This idea didn't change dramatically until the 71st auditioner came to audition.
When a tall and handsome young man appeared at the end of the room, director Wang Long's eyes suddenly lit up, his eyes widened in surprise, and he looked at each other carefully for a long time. The other party's clothes are really close to the role of "Chu Chen", handsome in appearance, noble in temperament, white in face and red in lips, like a spoiled young master.
After Chu Yan walked to the stage to introduce himself, Wang Long was rarely interested, and asked seriously: "What fragment did you draw?" โ
Chu Yan smiled and bowed his head, "What I drew is the fourth paragraph, Director Wang." โ
Next up is the audition.
When he heard Chu Yan say that he had drawn the fourth paragraph, Director Wang was slightly stunned, and then sighed with some regret. The fourth segment is a very difficult one of the ten audition clips, and this clip is not a solo scene, but a rival scene.
The actor who plays Chu Chen's eldest brother Yu Song has been decided, and he is a fairly good second-tier actor in China, he has already recorded a hologram for the audition of the fourth paragraph, which can be screened when someone extracts the fourth paragraph, and plays against the auditioner.
There were also people who drew the fourth audition before, but their results were really miserable.
There is no real person, only a holographic image, and the other party's expression, movements, speaking speed, and tone state are completely unpredictable, and there has even been a situation where the auditioner has not finished speaking, and Brother Chu Chen has already begun to speak.
With a feeling of regret, Director Wang and the others looked up at the stage.
When the word "start" fell, it was as if something had changed with a "click", and the young man looked in the direction of his left with a determined and stubborn expression. Obviously, he was dressed elegantly at this time, but he bent down slightly, his teeth clenched, and he looked unyielding.
At this moment, the tall and sturdy back of Yu Song appeared on the stage.
Under the illumination of the hologram, this back is a little illusory, but the demeanor and movements of the characters are very detailed. Zhen Song's face was pale, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed to suppress his deep anger, he glared at the young man in front of him, and said word by word: "You bastard, you still have the face to see me?!" Didn't you have enough of the family law last time, this time you actually dared to provoke that kid from the Chen family on the street, you broke one of Chen Er's arms! โ
When this sentence fell, Director Wang immediately looked at Chu Yan on the side.
But to his surprise, Chu Yan didn't react at all, he still looked at the person in the virtual image with a stubborn gaze, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't!" โ
The actor who played Zhen Song naturally didn't know what was happening at the moment, he was just recording it in advance, but just after Chu Yan's words, he suddenly clenched his fists, looked at the young man with a hateful gaze, and said, "You don't have anything?" Didn't you break Chen Er's arm? Didn't you shout something on the street, 'I'm the second young master of the Chu family, and it's you Chen Er' who hit me? Chu Chen, how can the Chu family have a scum like you! โ
When the words fell, in the surprised eyes of everyone in the director team, I saw that the young man on the stage suddenly trembled, and the whole person staggered forward, as if he had been whipped!
This plot is not carefully written in most people's AI scripts, after all, in the text script, here is Chu Song educating Chu Chen, and then there is an old housekeeper holding a whip with tears in his eyes, imposing family law on his beloved second young master.
Zhen Song didn't do it himself, and the old housekeeper couldn't record a hologram specifically for the audition, so what I wanted to show here was completely up to the auditioner's own intention.
And now, Chu Yan's expression obviously shocked everyone in the director team.
Especially the screenwriter, when he saw this scene, he was stunned suddenly, and then looked at the stage excitedly -
This is his scene!
And on the stage, somehow, a trace of sweat oozed from the boy's forehead. No one knows how this teenager did it, but his state at the moment is perfectly corresponding to the plot in the script.
"After ten lashes, you give me a roll back to my room, and I won't be allowed to go out for a month!"
"Chen Er humiliated me, he said I was a waste, he said I was an embroidered pillow!"
"Aren't you a waste, aren't you an embroidered pillow?"
"You're ......!"
"When will you be able to lead the Chu family's army to the battlefield, and when will you be the real good son of my Chu family!"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Chu Chen's heart fiercely. In the eyes of the director team and screenwriters, they saw that the young man's originally slightly bent back suddenly straightened, he turned around, and walked back seriously step by step, his steps were very slow and a little staggering, but he still refused to look back.
Behind him, the hologram of the Buddha closed his eyes tightly, leaving a tear.
Here it should be the old housekeeper who asked, "Young Master, why do you bother", so Yu Song looked at Chu Chen's back and said, "I am eighteen years older than him, I grew up watching him, I will be one step ahead of him sooner or later, and I will die...... What should he do? โ
The lighting of the stage was very ordinary, and he didn't pay attention to any shadows at all, but Director Wang frowned tightly, looked at the young figure with a straight back with a meaningful gaze, and didn't say a word.
Why did the teenager bend slightly at first? Because he's being whipped up!
Why did he suddenly straighten his waist at the end? Because he is stubborn, because he is stubborn, because he does not want his eldest brother to see his wolf bรจi, he thinks he has never been wrong!
Compared with this teenager's performance, the previous auditions were simply Dong Shi Xiaofeng.
When the real Chu Chen appeared, the inferior products just now were dwarfed, and he could no longer pretend to be a young man of the Chu family with a smug appearance and a tough heart, and he was also the future iron-blooded general of the country!

The afternoon sun was a little hotter than the morning, and Zhou Hehui waited outside for about an hour, and finally waited for Chu Yan to come out of the corridor. He glanced the young man up and down, and finally his gaze stopped at the other party's calm and calm expression.
Zhou Hehui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Haven't you been scolded?" โ
Chu Yan looked at him in surprise: "Brother Zhou, it turns out that you have no confidence in me so much?" โ
Zhou Hehui took Chu Yan and walked in the direction of the parking apron, and said, "Since you haven't been scolded, then this role is yours." โ
Zhou Hehui's voice was definitely resolute, without a trace of hesitation, as if it was an established fact.
Hearing this, Chu Yan quietly hooked the corners of his lips. Although he took off the military uniform that belonged to Chu Ershao, he did not remove his makeup, so his originally very delicate face was now outlined by the makeup artist's skillful hands, and it was dazzling against the backdrop of the sunset.
"Brother Zhou, do you know Li Zhetian?"
Chu Yan's words made Zhou Hehui pause, and he was slightly stunned: "Li Zhetian, I know, what's wrong with him?" โ
I saw the young man shake his head regretfully, and sighed: "That's a pity, Brother Zhou, I met Li Zhetian in an audition this time." I'm afraid your hopes are going to be disappointed, the Li family has half of the funds invested in "Blood War", and probably the role of the second male lead will fall on Li Zhetian's head. โ
When he said this, Chu Yan looked lost, as if it was really a pity, but there was no regret in his lowered eyes, but a slight light, as if he was waiting for something.
did not disappoint Chu Yan, just after a short hesitation, Zhou Hehui said in an affirmative tone: "You can rest assured about this, even if your acting skills may be worse than his, but as long as you are not so bad, this role is yours." โ
After getting into the car, Zhou Hehui sent Chu Yan home. Before leaving, he also instructed Chu Yan not to think too much, the company said that if it was going to praise him, it would definitely praise him, and a Li Zhetian company would not be in his eyes.
Tiansheng will not take Li Zhetian in his eyes, Chu Yan still believes this.
But looking at Zhou Hehui's distant appearance, the smile on Chu Yan's lips disappeared suddenly, and he narrowed his eyes and looked at the back of the hovering car with a deep gaze.
But now, Tiansheng is going to grab the role for him Chu Yan and Li Zhetian......
This shows that in Tiansheng's plan, his status is definitely not low, at least compared with offending Li Zhetian, praising him is more important.
Just squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, Chu Yan chuckled and put these thoughts behind him for the time being. When he returned home, as Zhou Hehui said, the crew of "Blood War" sent an employment statement that night, signed a contract with Chu Yan within three days, and hired him to play the second male lead Chu Chen in "Blood War", and officially joined the crew a week later.
Seven days later, Chu Yan and Zhou Hehui came to the crew of "Blood War", which had been on for four days, and they had just stood steadily, and at first glance they saw Li Zhetian sitting in the middle of the crowd, swaggering and arrogant.
