In fact, Chen Xiaotang was right, the only way for movie stars like Hong Kong to get to know the mainland people in the early 80s was through TV dramas, such as "Condor Shooting", "Shanghai Tang", "Rogue Tycoon" and other dramas, so for many really popular Hong Kong celebrities, the mainland people may not necessarily buy it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

For example, Chen Xiaotang himself is purple in Hong Kong ~ Hong Kong, Taiwan ~ Bay, as well as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, but for the people of the mainland who are closed, his popularity is probably a little bit worse than Li Lianjie, so if the drama "Jingwu Hero" relies on his popularity to dominate the mainland market, it is undoubtedly a bit dangerous, but now that there is a mainland "big name" like Li Lianjie joining, there is no doubt that it is equivalent to buying insurance.

Next, Chen Xiaotang officially introduced Li Lianjie to the crew of "Jingwu Heroes", everyone got to know each other and said hello, because Li Lianjie himself spoke Cantonese very badly, everyone talked to him and each other, so they didn't say much when they got together, but director Xu Xiaoming pulled Li Lianjie aside, stuffed him with the script and said: "Study and study well, it will start in three or four days at most!" ”

Only then did Li Lianjie know that he had become a real actor in this play.

After Li Lianjie auditioned here, Chen Xiaotang packed up the materials and began to interview other people with director Xu Xiaoming. Including some of the actors and actresses of the play.

Especially in terms of actresses, Guan Zhilin was originally played by the Japanese girl in it, in addition, there is also a very important female character who is the woman who has a love affair with Huo Tingge in the Qinglou.

In the original version, this role was played by Cai Shaofen, but now a newcomer has to be selected. So as soon as this audition began, the hallway was full of people.

This huge team of actors who came to apply for the job lined up from the door of the interview hall to the downstairs, winding between the corridors and the corridors, forming a long queue composed of people.

And the actresses who came to apply for the job can be said to be varied, including old, young, and greased. is coquettish, and people are dazzled and dizzy.

At this moment, Chen Xiaotang, Xu Xiaoming and others, who had just auditioned for Li Lianjie last night, were sitting in the interview hall again. They have interviewed no less than thirty actresses in quick succession. But there's still a long queue waiting for interviews and auditions.

Seeing so many people, Xu Xiaoming couldn't help but rub his temples and complained to Chen Xiaotang: "Tang Zai, there are too many people coming, we have only interviewed less than a quarter of them so far, and your requirements can't be too high." We need to speed up efficiency! ”

"That can't be too sloppy, isn't it. Can a play succeed? A big reason comes from the actors in the play. If the actor doesn't perform well, the ghost will like it! Chen Xiaotang said with a smile.

As an actor himself, Chen Xiaotang understands the importance of "actors" in a play better than anyone else.

Xu Xiaoming's "serious" attitude towards Chen Xiaotang's work is really unconvinced. Next, the two of them had to bite the bullet again and interview other actresses.

On the rostrum of the interview hall, Chen Xiaotang and the others were sitting precariously, with the information of the auditioners in front of them, as well as paper and pens. I'm going to rate the comers. A room of people hurriedly entered the interview state, and the staff in charge of the field record invited the candidates to come in.

Not tall and short-haired. Wearing myopic glasses, judging from the information, the other party is a female college student who has just graduated. It is said that he had acting experience in school, playing the role of "Juliet" in Shakespeare's plays. However, the girl in front of her still looked very nervous, grabbing her clothes and rubbing them with her hands from time to time.

"Hello!" Chen Xiaotang smiled kindly and beckoned her to sit down, "I am Chen Xiaotang, the president of Magic Shadow Entertainment." Don't be nervous, just ...... in your own home."

"You are the big star Chen Xiaotang?" The girl looked at Chen Xiaotang with a short breath. Eyes glow. Now Chen Xiaotang is famous, talented, self-made, all-round in film and television songs, and a superstar among the superstars in the entertainment industry, so it is undoubtedly very attractive to those girls who love to dream.

Looking at the girl's surprised and inexplicable expression, Chen Xiaotang smiled habitually and said: "As for the one next to me, it is Mr. Xu Xiaoming, the director of this drama "Jingwu Hero", he is also the interviewer who scored this interview. So, don't be nervous, just behave well! ”

"Okay, I'm not nervous!" The girl pushed her glasses, her face was quite white, and the freckles on her face were so white that they were really visible.

"Okay, could you please introduce yourself first, such as what's your name?" Xu Xiaoming, who is the main interviewer, said.

"Huh? I'm not nervous! The girl said excitedly.

"Hahaha!" Xu Xiaoming couldn't help laughing.

The girl looked more restrained, couldn't help but hold her glasses, smiled, and showed her braces, which meant a bit of "ugly girl invincible".

Chen Xiaotang seemed very calm, after all, as a person who came to audition just after graduation, it was inevitable that the girl would be more nervous than others. In addition, in his opinion, those who come with dreams should be respected.

So Chen Xiaotang comforted her again: "Take a deep breath, it will help your mood." Okay, so let's get straight to the point, what kind of role do you want to play in our movie this time? ”

"Oh, I want to play the heroine who is as beautiful as the fairy and the fragrance of the country." The girl subconsciously lowered her glasses before saying it, looking a little embarrassed.

"Heroine?" Director Xu Xiaoming, who was drinking water next to him, squirted out a mouthful of water, and a few drops of tea splashed on the placket of the "four-eyed girl".

"Then, then the supporting role is matched, and the supporting role is fine!" The four-eyed girl didn't care about being sprayed, so Xu Xiaoming embarrassedly took out a tissue and handed it to her to wipe. She seemed to care about Chen Xiaotang's reaction, and hurriedly lowered her requirements incoherently.

"Please, Miss, which role do you want to audition for?" Du Kefeng, the photographer who was sitting next to the four-eyed girl who was sitting with his waist on his back, asked helplessly, estimating that he was tired from this posture, and couldn't help but urge.

"General roles, dragon roles are also fine! Of course, it's better to have a sentence or two of dialogue... Anything! The four-eyed girl was very unassertive, which reminded Chen Xiaotang of the young Maggie Cheung before.

Today's Zhang Manyugui is a little flower in the film and television industry, and he gets together less and leaves more with Chen Xiaotang, but he seems strange. Originally, when filming this drama, Chen Xiaotang also took Zhang Manyu into account, but Zhang Manyu's agent said a word. I declined politely when I didn't have time. Chen Xiaotang doesn't know if this is what her agent means or what she means, but one thing can be confirmed that Zhang Manyu is really popular now, and she doesn't need a super big name like herself. Remembering that last time in the men's toilet, he was "forced ~ raped" by Zhang Manyu's girl, Chen Xiaotang felt very depressed, it seems that this woman will change a lot as soon as she enters the entertainment industry.

Shaking his head, Chen Xiaotang pulled himself away from these chaotic thoughts. Facing the shy four-eyed girl in front of her. Chen Xiaotang is even more tolerant, after all, no one can become a big star all of a sudden.

"Don't be afraid, you can play whatever you want... Is the audition heroine a who? Then simply put on your makeup first, and then come over here to audition. Chen Xiaotang said with a good temper.

So the makeup artist quickly took out a set of costumes from the Republic of China, as well as some cosmetics. Help the four-eyed girl dress up.

Suddenly, everything is over, and the four-eyed girl has undergone the "wonderful rejuvenation" of the makeup artist. Not only is it not four-eyed, but it also shows a little bit of posture.

The staff politely brought her to the good camera.

Auditions begin.

"Now you face the camera and we audition." Director Xu Xiaoming politely asked her to stand in the middle of the open space. Then photographer Duke Feng followed up to shoot her close-up.

"Okay, okay!" The four-eyed girl became more restrained in front of the camera and stood up straight.

"Hehe, you take it easy!" Xu Xiaoming said to the four-eyed girl.

"Well, I think you'd better sit down first." Chen Xiaotang was too nervous to see her. I had to let her sit down first. Xu Xiaoming asked Du Kefeng, who was the photographer, to adjust the lens slightly accordingly.

The four-eyed girl sat down obediently.

"Now let's do some simple projects, you just need to make a happy and sad face in turn. Of course, feel free to use gestures or sighs, but no lines. ”

"Oh, let me think about it." The four-eyed girl looked down thoughtfully, and said after a while, "Okay, can you start?" ”

"Okay, you stand up and turn around first, and then every time you turn to face us, make a face. Remember that the order is joy, anger and sorrow, ......," Chen Xiaotang looked at her and said.

Xu Xiaoming and Du Kefeng really didn't understand what Chen Xiaotang was thinking, they thought that for a girl with no qualifications, there was no need to be so troublesome, but Chen Xiaotang only had one thought, that is, --- respect every auditioner!

Neither the actor nor the actress are born! Who can be sure that there will be no future white swans among these ugly ducklings?!

And as far as Chen Xiaotang knows, Schwarzenegger and Stallone in their previous lives have failed several times because they were too nervous in front of the camera, so Chen Xiaotang has to treat every audition person carefully, since they can enter the audition after a series of selections, it is said that they still have potential.

"Can we begin?" The girl stood up very obediently and faced the window, with her back to Chen Xiaotang and them.

After adjusting her mood and state slightly, the four-eyed girl began to turn to Chen Xiaotang and them, of course, her body was still straight, she hurriedly turned around, and made an ancient woman look back at Chen Xiaotang and them, smirked for a minute, and then turned back to them in a panic.

"Huh!" Director Xu Xiaoming is snickering again, this kung fu film director seems to have a lot of laughing cells, but seeing that the four-eyed girl was laughing so weakly, so stiff, and so weak just now, even Chen Xiaotang himself wanted to laugh, but he still desperately held back and said, "Keep ----"

After ten seconds of adjustment, the four-eyed girl slowly turned back again, her eyes flowed, and after looking at Chen Xiaotang and them for three seconds, she suddenly twisted her waist, stomped her feet, and knocked the chair in front of her to the ground.

Chen Xiaotang and the others were dumbfounded, but the four-eyed girl turned her head back to face the wall in a panic.

"The angry word is okay, but it's a pity that the chair fell lightly!" Chen Xiaotang praised her in his heart, and then instructed the staff: "Go and help the chair up!" ”

As soon as Chen Xiaotang's words fell, the four-eyed girl turned around and came back, holding her orchid fingers in her hands with tears in her eyes, she sighed softly, sighed when she was finished, and wiped her tears with a gesture, looking like a resentful woman who had complained about herself for thousands of years.

Du Kefeng, who was a photographer over there, made an OK gesture to Chen Xiaotang. Appreciation.

The four-eyed girl turned around one last time and faced them, "Hey, hey, hey, hey!" He smirked for a minute, then turned to face the wall.

"Ahem, rat-headed snake-tailed leopard belly!" Chen Xiaotang couldn't help but say, "Okay, you can turn back." ”

Four-Eyed Girl turned around. Facing Chen Xiaotang, they stood straight again.

Chen Xiaotang gave her a fly in his heart. Although her anger and sorrow are very good, joy and happiness are the most common expressions of actors, and joy and happiness are also compulsory courses for actors, and she is very overwhelmed in both of them, perhaps because of nervousness...

Next, Chen Xiaotang prepared some clips from "Jingwu Heroes". let the four-eyed girl play the role of the big girl in the Qinglou, not to mention, she looks stupid.

The audition is over. The four-eyed girl was excited and incoherent again, saying how much she liked acting, and hoped that the Shadow Company would give her a chance.

Chen Xiaotang was inconvenient to say anything. Director Xu Xiaoming told her that if the audition was successful, he would call her and tell her not to worry. The four-eyed sister was reluctant to leave.

Interviews and auditions continue.

After almost two hours of hurrying, he was already busy from nine o'clock in the morning to half past eleven, and Chen Xiaotang's mood at this moment was both happy and worried.

The good thing is that the current actresses are simple. This may have something to do with the fact that they have not experienced the glitz and luxury of the entertainment industry, and they do not use tricks to help themselves become famous like actresses in later generations. They just stand in front of you honestly and do what you say.

What Chen Xiaotang is worried about is that all the actors have an obvious stage performance style. Watching them perform, you will feel a little pretentious, a little deliberate. They feel that they are performing, but in the eyes of connoisseurs like Chen Xiaotang, it is obvious that they are not integrating with the role from the heart, to put it bluntly, they don't know how to perform life in its original form, just putting on a show.

Therefore, after working for so long a day, Chen Xiaotang only selected a few girls who could be portrayed and asked them to play some small roles in the play, hoping to give them more opportunities in the future so that they can grow up as soon as possible.

Lying on the boss's chair, Chen Xiaotang rubbed his temples a little dizzy, and then said to Xu Xiaoming: "Brother Ming, it seems that you are right, we are going to speed up, otherwise at this speed, our drama may have to wait until next year to start filming." ”

Xu Xiaoming laughed, "You finally know!" ”

At this time, there were several more waiters outside the door.

The interview process is almost the same, except that the audition of the person who comes to interview the heroine will be different, and the others are the basic skills of interviewing some actors, such as joy, anger, sorrow, etc.

Then Chen Xiaotang interviewed three more girls, two of whom are high school students, who are only fifteen or sixteen years old this year, and their appearance is quite delicate, but unfortunately they give people too immature feelings.

Another person who came to audition for the heroine was a white-collar worker in a company, she had a good sense of the camera, and she was very natural in front of the camera, but there was a little bit of a cold look, which did not quite meet everyone's aesthetics, after all, this was to shoot "Jingwu Heroes", not a "ghost movie".

Then they interviewed a forty-year-old aunt, who claimed to be a movie lover, and her profession was selling vegetables in the vegetable market.

Aunt Cauliflower began to spit and talk about it as soon as she entered the door, pulling Chen Xiaotang and a few of them from Marilyn Monroe in the United States to Lin Qingxia in Hong Kong today. Seeing that she is so enthusiastic, Chen Xiaotang is really embarrassed to say that they don't need actors of such age this time.

Of course, I heard her talk about Chen Xiaotang, a superstar, who is talented, wise and martial, carrying forward the past and forging ahead into the future, and bird and fish soup...... made Chen Xiaotang have the urge to add some scenes for her alone.

But when she finished the audition, Chen Xiaotang's impulse had disappeared.

This cauliflower aunt's expression is suitable for opera, it is too exaggerated, and it seems a little unsuitable for movies, especially a kung fu film like this that promotes the national spirit, which has high requirements for the atmosphere of the times interpreted by the actors, and she just can't do this.

Then Chen Xiaotang and the others interviewed two girls who came together, saying that they were employees of a company, and the two were colleagues. The beautiful one came to interview the heroine, and the ordinary-looking one said that he was willing to be an extra. As a result, the strength of the beautiful one is really poor, but the ordinary-looking one, everyone agrees that she is very good at playing a supporting actress.

After the two girls left, it was already the afternoon time, Chen Xiaotang was a little impatient in his heart, after auditioning so much, all the gains were maids and maidservants, or turtle bustards, and none of them could be the heroines.

Just when Chen Xiaotang was secretly sighing, his eldest brother's phone suddenly rang.

Chen Xiaotang was surprised, who would call at this time, I don't know if he was busy.

Answered the phone, and there was a very familiar voice on the other end, "Ah Tang, it's me, sam!" ”

Sam, the god of song Xu Guanjie?!

Chen Xiaotang couldn't help but be stunned.

You must know that for Chen Xiaotang, the god of song Xu Guanjie is a little kind to him, after all, when Chen Xiaotang was not popular, it was Xu Guanjie who invited him to sing the shocking "Exaggeration" at his solo concert, which led to Chen Xiaotang's earth-shattering upstart in the music world.

However, now that he is famous in the music world, Chen Xiaotang is obviously a little louder than this god of songs, after all, Chen Xiaotang's diamond record sales are not covered. However, where is the name of the singer's family, Chen Xiaotang still respects him very much. (To be continued.)
