Chapter 35: Audition (Medium)
[Old man, you can't. The roles are all predetermined, and you don't play a role at all. Guan Chen stood in front of the sink and took out the lucky robe from the bag.
[Slow down, it's not that I can't do it, it's that the bear is too powerful. Guan Chen shook his clothes and pretended that it was crying out for injustice.
[Dare to quibble.] Guan Chen punched his clothes twice in the stomach.
Tracksuits whirring in mid-air.
Guan Chen played for a while before taking out the clothes Xie Jinzhu had prepared for him.
Even if the role was decided, he didn't plan to give up halfway.
Every time he took the exam in his previous life, Guan Chen knew that his score was in single digits, and he would still go, just because it was more fragrant to sleep in the examination room.
This time is different. He wasn't here to sleep or make friends.
He came to verify what he had prepared.
Asking oneself again and again, turning out the pain in the memories to dry, just to make the characters more vivid. Xing Yan is a lot older, and he got up early in the morning and accompanied him to rehearse and analyze the script for more than ten hours. More than anyone else, Little Bear believes he can succeed. The breakfast bought by the elder brother was also delicious.
If he walks away without doing anything, it will be too inferior.
Standing in front of the mirror, Guan Chen changed his clothes.
The clothes Xie Jinzhu prepared for him were a brand-new white shirt and a pair of black dress pants. After changing his clothes and pants, a tall young man appeared in the mirror. Without the cover of long hair, the whole person looks thinner.
Guan Chen turned his head to look at the cubicle. The caller hadn't made a sound since he came in.
Guan Chen picked up the bag, walked out, opened the door, closed the door.
The bathroom was quiet for a moment, and the people in the cubicle slowly came to life, and when they came out, they suddenly saw Guan Chen leaning against the door.
Guan Chen didn't actually leave, pretending to leave, just to continue to listen to something, or to lure people out and see the other party's face.
"My surname is Xie, and I am Wang Qingjun's agent." After Guan Chen introduced himself, he asked the other party: "Sir, your surname?" ”
When the other party heard Wang Qingjun's name, he was a little surprised, looked Guan Chen up and down, and then claimed that his surname was Liu.
"Mr. Liu, I walked in just now and accidentally heard something, so I apologize to you first. There's just one thing I really want to ask......" Guan Chen asked him: "Who is the role of Wu Ze?" ”
Mr. Liu hesitated for a moment, smiled bitterly, and still didn't say who it was: "Who else can there be besides a big company." While it's still too late, you should change your roles as soon as possible. ”
After the other party finished speaking, he shook his hand and left.
Guan Chen waited for a while and walked out.
He didn't want to ask people clearly and retaliate, after all, the world is not fair, he couldn't be clearer. He was just curious to know which company was so related, and if Xiong Yu entered the industry in the future, he would definitely recommend Xiao Xiong to enter that company.
Large companies. Guan Chen silently recited the clue and came to the corridor.
The long hallway was almost full.
Being able to get the audition notice means that the team behind it has certain capabilities. Some actors have agents by their side and are memorizing their lines; Some actors saw familiar faces and chatted on the spot.
The actors who auditioned were all about the same age, in their twenties and thirties, and after putting on makeup, they couldn't tell the specific age.
Everyone is also prepared in terms of styling, but the style is different. Some dressed up as bandits, and some came directly in police uniforms.
Guan Chen is lonely, dressed ordinarily, and has no makeup, looking at these people, he feels that everyone except him is like a big company.
Auditions began quickly.
In the room at the end of the corridor, a young man will come out, call out the name and number, and let the actors go in and perform one by one in order.
Guan Chen was bored sitting and waiting, so he simply took out the script and continued to ponder the role.
However, after a while, there was a commotion in the corridor from time to time, and the actors gathered together to whisper. Guan Chen pricked up his ears and listened, and found that he already knew what everyone was talking about - the role of Wu Ze was predetermined.
When some agents heard the news, they either encouraged their actors to play well later, or asked the actors to quickly change roles and try to change roles.
Guan Chen still lowered his head and played with his own.
He was only interested in the role of Wu Ze. For the sake of a job, he was asked to play other roles, so he didn't bother to change.
An hour, two hours passed.
People kept coming, and actors kept coming in and out.
Some go in and come out in five minutes, others even less. And those who have been in it for more than ten minutes will get everyone's attention when they come out.
Some people came out with a high-spirited face. Some people scolded and scolded after they came out, and scolded in a low voice Since they have already made up their minds, why do they still have such an audition to slip away.
Guan Chen roughly estimated that there should be more than 100 people before and after.
It's a big production.
But when will it be your turn? Guan Chen held his neck, took out his mobile phone to look, and found that it was six o'clock in the evening.
After another hour, Guan Chen noticed that the actor who entered in front of him stayed in the room for three minutes, two minutes.
[Is it already confirmed?] Guan Chen guessed.
A few actors in the hallway also noticed the abnormal audition frequency, knew something, and got up and left.
Guan Chen didn't move. He touched the script in his hand, and felt a little regretful, it seemed that he couldn't see Wu Ze played by himself on the big screen.
About half an hour later, the young man in charge of calling people called Guan Chen's name.
At this time, there was no one in the entire corridor except for him and a few staff members.
Guan Chen got up, walked from this end of the corridor to the door of the room at the other end, showed the pass for the audition, and after the staff confirmed that it was correct, Guan Chen was introduced into the room.
Walking into the room, directly facing the door is a row of tables placed side by side.
A few people sat behind the desk, talking and laughing. exchanged resumes with each other, saying that this actor is good, but that actor is not good.
Everything was communicated in front of Guan Chen. didn't take care of Guan Chen's mood at all. Or rather, they don't care at all.
After Guan Chen came in, no one paid attention to him for a while, and he stood like a minion.
After a while, when the person at the edge of the seat urged the staff to prepare dinner, he noticed Guan Chen who was standing.
"Huh? How can there be? Wasn't it the last one just now? This person could see at a glance that Guan Chen was an actor, and not someone else.
After everyone noticed Guan Chen one after another, they put away their communication posture and looked at Guan Chen.
Guan Chen looked at them one by one, a little curious, guessing what they were doing.
When the director in the center saw the resume handed over by his subordinates, he remembered that an actor like Ji Chen, who had only been inserted in the last two days.
"Come to think of it, there is such one." The director clicked the table with a pen and explained to everyone: "Huang Jin recommended it." ”
After listening to this, everyone did not react much.
After all, Huang Jin is just a host, a person outside the film industry, and has little influence.
Moreover, Guan Chen's resume is being circulated by everyone to look through, and the column of works is blank, which has explained a lot of things.
Everyone looked at each other and smiled in their understanding.
"I don't know who you've decided, but it has nothing to do with me, I just want to put in place what I've prepared." Guan Chen picked up the script and added: "Then give some opinions." ”
"Guilty? Don't talk nonsense, lad. ”
"Opinions?"
The camera was turned on by the crew.
This is not only to prevent the actor from saying anything after going out, but also to see if the actor is on camera. If the movie is a big hit, the audition clip can also be a good promotional material.
Now it's just to prevent.
"Do you have an opinion on the script?" The director asked Guan Chen.
Guan Chen nodded.
It's not about internal determination. The more realistic the environment, the more real Wu Ze can be shaped.
"Let's talk about the warehouse play first. Why don't police officers bring law enforcement cameras when they are on duty? This is used not only to supervise the enforcement of the police, but also to record the enemy. Even if the action fails afterwards, you can analyze the enemy's behavioral characteristics, speaking habits, and decipher the enemy's identity. ”
"Also, why did Zhang Jiaju and them enter the warehouse, and after they couldn't contact anyone, why didn't the police backstage send support? There is also no police blockade around the warehouse? ”
“……”
One loophole after another was pointed out by Guan Chen, and the screenwriter blushed a little when he heard it.
[You're just an actor, and you even guide me to write? The screenwriter was very angry, picked up Guan Chen's resume and looked at it, and was stunned for a moment.
"Uh......" turned out to be from the Literature Department of Yunman University.
That...... Barely ...... You can guide, right?
"You graduated from Yunman?" Everyone noticed Guan Chen's academic qualifications one after another.
Guan Chen said: "Yes." ”
It's gone.
I didn't say anything about the experience related to acting in college, and I didn't say that the major I studied in college helped me with acting.
Twenty-seven years old. Non-professional class. No acting experience. Pure newcomers.
Although the appearance is good-looking, an actor is not good-looking to be a good actor. Perhaps the job of a model is more suitable. All we have to do now is to get this out of the way and go to dinner.
"Ten seconds for you. Say something you know and we don't. A sharp-eyed woman next to the director asked.
Guan Chen, who was seated by Xie Jinzhu's popular science, guessed that the woman in front of him should be a producer or producer.
The woman's gaze and tone were very sharp, but Guan Chen was not stunned. Wearing the high-quality raw vest of his predecessor, he had long expected this kind of situation.
I saw Guan Chen's eyes blazing and replied: "When you wipe your butt after going to the toilet, you will wipe it more cleanly with your non-dominant hand for the last time." ”
Everyone: "......"
Everyone was still guessing that Guan Chen would say that it was in line with the knowledge points of graduates of prestigious schools, or that he had some unique personal experiences. But no one thought about it......
Your knowledge is too down-to-earth!
"Worthy of ...... The person recommended by Huang Jin is very humorous, haha, haha. The director barely snorted.
Seeing that the producer was staring at Guan Chen unkindly, the director hurriedly put the audition on track, and he asked Guan Chen: "Tell me what you think of the role." ”
"[Contrast] is a very common and useful way of expressing it. In "Police Story", both the pros and cons are policemen, but they have chosen completely opposite paths.
Everything Wu Ze did stemmed from the fact that he felt that his life was meaningless and his life was worthless.
He disrupted the order, not only to take revenge on the police group represented by his father who guarded the order, but also because he couldn't find a way to compromise, and gradually became disgusted with everything, the world, and himself. He can only fight his inner self-loathing by constantly performing tyrannical acts.
He constantly challenged more difficult crimes, intensified his abuse of the SHA police, and became the enemy of the whole world, because he wanted to trample his life and throw it in his father's face and give him back his life.
If you destroy yourself, you can escape from everything. That's all he wants. ”
Guan Chen slowly said the understanding that he had sorted out.
The people who were originally careless, listened and listened, slowly put away their redundant distractions, and began to listen to Guan Chen's narration more attentively, reflecting his words to the characters in the script.
"It's like something that a Yunman graduate said." After listening to it, the director sighed and expressed his appreciation. There are some angles that neither he nor the screenwriter expected.
"That's good," the producer nodded, moving on to the next step, "let's start performing." ”
Everyone is also waiting for Guan Chen's performance.
Some people say it very well, the character biography is written thicker than the script, and they work very hard, but when it starts acting, it's another matter entirely.
"How's that scene in the warehouse?" The director smoked the scene in the warehouse, where the villain Wu Ze and the protagonist Zhang Jiaju fought for the first time.
"Yes." Guan Chen nodded. He and Xing Yan were prepared for this kind of major event.
Then the people in the room saw Guan Chen take out a red face mask from a black plastic bag that looked like a garbage bag.
"Because considering the cameras everywhere and the police with law enforcement cameras, when Wu Ze appears, he will wear a mask." Guan Chen put the mask on the ground and stepped on it with his foot.
The mask shattered in half.
Guan Chen picked up the upper half of his face and put it on his head.
Then he unbuttoned the two buttons above his collar, slowly unbuttoned his shoulders, and his posture became more and more erect. It was as if some kind of beast was awakening.
Some people at the scene originally thought that this was unnecessary, and masks covered their expressions, which increased the difficulty.
But the director thinks Guan Chen is so good. Although the rookie actor has little experience, with his enthusiasm, he will exude a kind of innocence of hard work, and the audience eats this set very much, and he also appreciates it.
However, when Guan Chen raised his head......
Looking at those eyes, they seemed to see a different side of the world.
