Chapter 3 Friend Cheng
Chen Chengcheng is Meng Anning's only friend and a student at Jinqiu Art Academy. It's just that her personality is very different from Meng Anning's, very spicy, and with her enthusiasm, she has already played the female number three in two idol dramas.
"How many times have I told you, Wei Baishu is a scumbag, it's strange that he can believe what he says. That is, you are stupid, you were deceived by him, and what kind of banquet did you go to. It's okay to lose, but if something really happens, you won't have a place to cry. Chen Chengcheng's roaring voice came from the earpiece, and An Ning had no choice but to take the phone farther away.
"Okay, okay, I know I'm wrong, can't I?" An Ning whispered softly: "I know that you are all for my good, and I will never dare to take your words as wind in my ears next time." ”
Chen Chengcheng was relieved at this time, "Don't be too anxious, there will always be opportunities." If you're short on money, I've got a little money saved here, and I'll call you later. ”
An Ning's heart warmed, Chen Chengcheng was really the same as what was written in his diary, he was good to himself. "It's not a journey, you have already helped me many times, and they all said that it is difficult to take care of the long and poor, and I will never be able to live by borrowing money from you for the rest of my life."
"What are you polite to me, you forgot, if it weren't for you, I would have fallen for that scumbag a long time ago."
Chen Chengcheng is talking about when she was a freshman, her boyfriend at the time, Bai Yi, took her to a bar and secretly drugged Chen Chengcheng's wine glass. When he carried Chen Chengcheng out to get into the taxi, he happened to be seen by Meng Anning. Meng Anning pretended that he had called the police, scared Bai Yi away, and saved Chen Chengcheng. Since this incident, the two have become close friends.
An Ning smiled: "Why do you always mention it in the past?" I want to ask you, the scene where Wei Baishu introduced me to the audition before......"
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chen Chengcheng: "Why are you still asking about this play?" What's the idea? ”
"Don't worry, I just want to ask, isn't there a public audition for such a big show?" In fact, An Ning didn't know what this "big drama" was, and Meng Anning's diary did not mention specific information.
Chen Chengcheng snorted from his nose: "What a big show, Wei Baishu can deceive you." This "Lock the Palace" is something from Yufu Studio, that is, it can be a young child, the plot is shoddy, and the heroine is also brought into the group. In my opinion, it should be renamed "A Guide to Being a Woman Crossing". ”
Well, it sounds like it should be a costume idol drama that caters to the trend of time. An Ning frowned and asked, "Is the director also Yu Fu?" ”
Chen Chengcheng then said, "That's not it. Didn't Yufu Studio release two costume idol dramas that were sprayed very miserably, this sequel, this time, deliberately went to the high route, and spent money to invite Zheng Wei to direct. So, there's no money to invite other wrists, except for the male protagonist and the female protagonist, all other characters use newcomers, cheap and good. ”
Zheng Wei? An Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
Zheng Wei, the director, can be regarded as a typical example of Huai Cai. Twenty years after graduating from directing, he has stuck to his principles and is reluctant to be commercialized. Some of the literary films made are too niche and have no market, and they have been living beyond their means.
It wasn't until five or six years ago that Zheng Wei began to develop into commercial TV dramas, which stunned a group of people. He doesn't pick scripts very much, as long as the money he gives is high, and the actors in the script are not too outrageous, he accepts them all. And the money he earned was immediately invested in various niche movies.
An Ning had contact with him before, and knew that although Zheng Wei had compromised with commercialization, he still had a scale in his heart, and he looked down on the unspoken rules and everything.
"Cheng Cheng, I want to audition. Do you know the time and place? ”
"You, you want to be angry with me, Meng Anning!" Chen Chengcheng's voice suddenly rose several degrees: "You were deceived by Wei Baishu's guy and can't find the north, right?" ”
An Ning rubbed her eyebrows a little helplessly: "I'm not going to find Wei Baishu, I really want to audition, it's fair." ”
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and An Ning knew what she was worried about. Meng Anning wrote several times in his diary that his hands and feet would tremble every time he participated in the audition, and there was no way to play normally.
But now Meng Anning is already Anning, and she will never let this opportunity slip away from her.
"Do you really want to try?" Chen Chengcheng asked a little uncertainly.
"Yes, very much. This opportunity is important to me. ”
Such a firm voice made Chen Chengcheng have an illusion, as if his friend for many years had become another person overnight.
――――
On a July day, the sun was blazing, and when An Ning arrived at the audition site, there was already a long queue there. The audition format is similar to an audition, and it is aimed at all current acting students. After all, they are representatives of cheap labor.
And these college students also see this opportunity as a stepping stone to fame, even if they are not famous, it is good to have experience. Therefore, everyone is carefully dressed, and at a glance, they only feel that they are fat and thin, and each has its own merits.
In contrast, the tranquility of the crowded bus and sweating profusely is particularly eye-catching.
After eleven years as an actor, An Ning certainly knows better than anyone how important delicate makeup is for an actress, but there are really no cosmetics available in Meng Anning's room. In addition, she has no money to take a taxi, so she can only transfer from subway to bus, and she will definitely sweat profusely, even if she wears makeup, it is estimated that it will be spent.
After An Ning weighed the pros and cons, he could only come with a plain face.
The audition room was at the end of a long hallway, the door was tightly closed, and it looked like the interviewer hadn't arrived yet, only a staff member with a work ID card was keeping order.
An Ning handed over the resume she brought.
"Jinqiu Art Academy?" The man pressed An Ning's resume at the bottom with some disdain: "You go to the line, I will call the names one by one to enter later." ”
An Ning saw that he couldn't hide the perfunctory. This is also a matter of course, there are so many beauties present, and they are all graduates of first-class drama universities. An Ning's appearance is not the most outstanding, and he has a face, and the school is just a pheasant university. What's more, she hasn't been signed by any company since graduation, who will take her seriously?
So she wasn't annoyed, and politely bent over to the side.
The male and female protagonists of "Lock the Palace" have been decided, and the slightly more important supporting roles also have a lot of eighteenth-tier starlets. And the role they are competing for today may be just a role where they can get a bento after just saying two sentences, and there are almost no requirements for acting skills.
The sound of the young girls chattering and discussing was heard, and Allah stood in front of a glass wall, curling the corners of his mouth slightly at the faint figure on the wall.
