Chapter Forty-Seven: Movie Auditions
That night, Wen Ningyu took Xiao Ai back to the hotel to rest, and as soon as she finished washing, she heard a knock on the door.
Then Xiao Ai, who went to open the door, brought in a woman who was dressed very individually.
"Who are you?" Wen Ningyu paused as she smeared skin care products on her face.
"I'm Zhou Qian, the designer who tailors the evening dress for you. ”
Wen Ningyu smiled and greeted gently: "Hello, Designer Zhou." ”
"Just call me Zhou Qian, I won't talk nonsense, let's help you measure the size first?" Zhou Qian took out a tape measure from her shoulder bag.
After measuring the size, Zhou Qian asked Wen Ningyu about the taboo again, and then left.
Seeing Zhou Qian away, Xiao Ai asked Wen Ningyu with some doubts: "What dinner is Wen Wen going to attend?"
"I'm going to accompany Mr. Mo to a banquet next weekend. For his assistant, Wen Ningyu did not hide it.
Before going to bed, she swiped her mobile phone for a while and found that the trailer of "Struggle, Trainee" she participated in was actually released, and the broadcast time was released - it was officially broadcast at 10 p.m. on the last Friday at the end of this month.
Today is July 20th, Thursday, which means there is still a week left before the broadcast.
However, in order to ensure her sleep quality, she didn't look at her phone for too long and rested early. Although "The Legend of a Hero" was the first crew she auditioned for, her real debut was "12 Tricks for Love", of course, she had to stay in the best condition in order to be a hit.
The next day, as soon as she arrived on the set, Wen Ningyu smelled the pervasive scent of breakfast.
At first, Wen Ningyu thought it was the breakfast brought by Bai Wu again, but then she rejected it, Bai Wu only brought some bread and milk before, and today this smell is not the fragrance of bread.
I saw everyone gathered at the desk for the meeting, and there were a lot of lunch boxes on the table, such as shrimp dumplings, xiaolongbao, horseshoe cakes, etc., like breakfast brought from a tea restaurant.
"When did the crew still pack breakfast?" Xiao Ai muttered.
Wen Ningyu was also puzzled in her heart, so she saw the field staff running over and said to her, "Teacher Wen, your breakfast is set aside alone, and it's still hot to eat." ”
Wen Ningyu was stunned for a moment, glanced around, then looked at the field and said, "You are too polite." ”
"No, no, no, the breakfast was sent by Mr. Mo, and your share is individual. ”
Wen Ningyu raised her eyebrows slightly, and silently recited in her heart, "Rich and rich", not only did she contract lunch, but now she even has breakfast, and I don't know if it's for show, or to let Bai Wu, who is also in the crew, eat better.
Thinking of Bai Wu, she couldn't help but search for Bai Wu's figure, but she didn't see Bai Wu in the big office, so she couldn't help but ask the field staff who hadn't left yet: "Didn't Bai Wu come?"
"I didn't see her either. The field attendant shook his head.
Xiao Ai reminded: "Wen Wen, I seem to have heard her ask the director for leave yesterday. ”
"Oh. "I can't take this opportunity to be angry with Bai Wu anymore, Wen Ningyu is a little regretful, but it's okay if Bai Wu is not here, she is happy.
While eating breakfast, a "warm temperature" came in from outside the office door.
Hearing Renee J's voice, Wen Ningyu raised her eyes and saw that Renee J, who had removed the bandage and returned to a non-mainstream shape, had already rushed over, if it weren't for the fact that he still had a neck guard around his neck, he really thought he was good.
"Didn't you tell you to recuperate in the hospital, what if you fall ill?" Wen Ningyu frowned.
"I'm fine, the doctor said I could be discharged. ”
"Really?" Wen Ningyu stared at him suspiciously, "Then why are you still wearing neck guards?"
"Hehehehehe, I just can't move my neck very much. As she spoke, Renee J rolled her eyes and saw the breakfast in front of her, but she changed the subject without cleverness: "Today's breakfast is so rich." ”
"Can the unjust boss provide a lot of money? Wen Ningyu also followed his words.
"Oh, oh, it's that weasel, but he's so lenient that he even manages your breakfast. Hmph!"
Wen Ningyu smiled and didn't speak.
The filming time always flies quickly, Wen Ningyu thought that she would wait for the broadcast of the show "Struggle, Trainee" first, but she didn't expect that the first thing she was waiting for was an audition opportunity - the audition for the heroine of Gu Xinghe's new movie.
It was a very meaningful interview for her.
The same interview location, the same interviewee, the only difference is that she is no longer the fledgling newcomer in the entertainment industry who relied on her appearance.
"Miss Wen, please come in, our Teacher Gu has been waiting for you inside for a long time. ”
The door was pushed open and slid open.
Wen Ningyu asked Renee J and Xiao Ai to wait outside, and she entered the room alone.
Bypassing the screen, as in his memory, Gu Xinghe was sitting behind a low table and leisurely making tea and drinking tea.
"Here you are, sit down and have a cup of tea. The man had a faint smile on his face, and he didn't see any negative emotions in the slightest.
Wen Ningyu sat down, picked up the teacup in front of her, and slowly tasted the tea, as if she really came to drink tea, without mentioning anything about the movie audition.
The two of them sat facing each other and even chatted a few words about the varieties of tea.
Seeing that Wen Ningyu was so stable, Gu Xinghe spoke first: "You are not my ideal heroine candidate, I can't find the slightest shadow of a heroine in you." ”
Is this a soldier who wants to surrender without a fight? Wen Ningyu raised her chin slightly, a calm smile on the corner of her mouth, and replied unhurriedly: "Your heroine is not based on me, of course you can't find a shadow in me." ”
"That's right," Gu Xinghe nodded in agreement, "So, whether it's suitable or not depends on whether you act like it." ”
"The script has been given to you in advance, I don't know what you think?"
Wen Ningyu took out the script from the bag she was carrying and put it in front of the right, "I've finished reading it." ”
"Let's put on a show. Gu Xinghe opened the script, flipped through it, found a page, and clicked on the tips of his fingers.
Finally at this moment, Wen Ningyu lowered her eyes and swept over, and she was not surprised at all when she saw the content to be played.
This script called "After Knowing You" tells the story of the male protagonist who used to be a big star and is now a disabled person with high paraplegia who committed suicide several times in decadence, and then after the female protagonist appeared, he came out of the shadows little by little, and finally actively cooperated with the treatment for the female protagonist and regained his life.
As a well-known actor, the actor suddenly fell into a disabled person with spinal cord damage and paraplegia due to a stage accident, which made the actor who was at the peak of his career feel difficult to accept such a sense of disparity from the sky, so he hid at home all day and became a half-madman, and finally the agency gave up on him.
The hero's parents couldn't bear to let him spoil himself so much, but they invited a lot of rehabilitation doctors and nannies who were driven away by the hero's bad attitude. In the end, the parents unexpectedly found a heroine who worked in a children's welfare home and helped a paraplegic child to stand up slowly, and asked the heroine to help the hero, and gave a particularly high salary.
In order to get money to help all kinds of disabled children in the welfare home, the female owner agreed to the request of the male owner's parents, resisted the bad attitude of the male owner and stayed, and then tried every means to gain the trust of the male owner, and slowly helped him recuperate his body, restore his mental health, and let him regain his love for life.
But in the end, when the male protagonist struggled to stand up, the female protagonist withdrew and left. Of course, in the end, the male protagonist still found the heroine.
The whole play is full of a fairytale-like romanticism, and you will feel very sweet in your heart after watching it.
The style of this drama is obviously the first time for Gu Xinghe, he has challenged various roles before, but a disabled person like this who is almost a high paraplegic has not played it, so he will go to the hospital before to experience the feeling that the role needs.
Wen Ningyu wants to try the play, the premise is that the male protagonist in the play is slowly attracted to the heroine in the process of getting along with the heroine, and even has a sense of dependence, a good friend of the male protagonist comes to see him and ridicules the relationship between the male protagonist and the heroine, but the male protagonist vetoes it as if he has been provoked, and insists that even if he is not in good health, his taste will not be reduced. This happened to be heard by the heroine who walked to the door with tea. And what she wants to play is a scene after the heroine enters the door.
Although the heroine didn't think about the male protagonist as Xiao, she was still very hurt to hear the male protagonist say that she was of low grade indirectly, she was a very strong person, so she didn't flinch when she heard it, but walked in casually and made tea for the male protagonist and his friends. But she has to show in such a casual situation that she actually cares about what the male protagonist says.
In this scene, the heroine has very few words, which especially tests the control of facial expressions, how to reveal the current emotions through some subtle expressions This is what Wen Ningyu needs to ponder.
In fact, it has only been a day since Wen Ningyu received the script, and if Gu Xinghe really wanted to give her a chance, he would at least leave more time for her to ponder the script, but no, as soon as she came up, she played the most intense and conflicting scene with the most intense inner activities.
Gu Xinghe was really dissatisfied with her in his heart.
Wen Ningyu was even sure that even if she performed perfectly today, the other party would find a reason to deny her. When she wanted to come to this opportunity, she didn't hold out hope, but she still wanted to be ashamed in front of Gu Xinghe, and wash away the shame of saying that he had zero acting skills and zero professionalism when he interviewed him in his previous life.
"What, do you have any doubts?" Seeing that she didn't move, Gu Xinghe asked.
"There's one less person. ”
Gu Xinghe was very cooperative, and called his assistant in and asked the assistant to play a visiting friend and read the lines.
Wen Ningyu didn't talk nonsense, she directly picked up the tea set on the table and used it as a prop, and walked behind the screen.
She took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions in her mind, substituted herself into the role, and after quickly entering the state, she walked out from behind the screen with the tea set.
