Jiangnan City is only 300 kilometers away from Hengzhou Film and Television City, Xu Zhen and Zhou Xiaoman set off in the evening and came to Hengzhou at 9 o'clock in the evening.

After a night's rest, at eight o'clock the next morning, Xu Zhen came to the audition location of the crew of "Blue Blood Sword": Wansheng International Hotel.

That is where Cai Shijian invited him to dinner for the first time.

Revisiting the old place, Xu Zhen felt very cordial inexplicably.

After entering the hotel lobby, the staff led him to a small conference room where he waited for an audition.

However, when he went in, Xu Zhen was shocked by the scene inside.

- I saw that more than a dozen people had already come to the small conference room at this time, and more than half of them were wearing ancient costumes or practice clothes, and some even wore wigs;

There are also a few people who are wearing ordinary clothes, but they have painted very "evil" makeup, thick eyeliner and dark eyeshadow, which makes people shudder at first sight.

There are also a few others, with knives, swords and other props at hand, and one of them has gold lacquer on his sword......

What the hell, "Golden Serpent Sword"??

"Xiao Xu, this way!"

was stunned, and suddenly heard someone summoning him, Xu Zhen followed the prestige, but saw that it was Zhong Tao.

Zhong Tao didn't wear a costume today, he was wearing a normal jacket and slacks, and although he also wore a thick layer of foundation on his face, at least he looked normal.

Finally found an acquaintance, Xu Zhen hurriedly walked towards him.

"Brother Tao, it's early."

"Well, early."

The two smiled and said hello.

When Xu Zhen got closer, Zhong Tao looked him up and down, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

- The stylist has put a lot of thought into it.

Xu Zhen's makeup looks very light, and when viewed from a distance of more than 5 meters, it is almost no different from a plain face.

But how could Zhong Tao, who has been in the film for decades, not know that he was painting nude makeup.

Compared with usual, Xu Zhen's eyebrows and eyes are a little more heroic, and his face and lips are more angular.

The slightest change wiped away the childishness on his face without a trace, making him look a lot more mature.

Xu Zhen himself is also very satisfied with today's makeup.

However, the price is ......

The price of this set of cosmetics is comparable to the cost of a round-trip air ticket and accommodation for two people.

Thinking that putting on makeup by himself was actually more expensive than gilding the Buddha's body, Xu Zhen felt that his heart was dripping blood.

But it can't be helped.

In order not to hurt his skin as much as possible, all the cosmetics and skin care products he uses now are high-end goods that Qiao Feng specially asked someone to buy for him.

Not pursuing the brand, but pursuing low chemical composition.

This kind of stuff can't be cheap.

"Squeak......

After a while, another person came to the conference room, and everyone turned their heads to look at it, and they couldn't help but be attracted by this person.

Chen Zhenghao!

The pillar of Huaying Media, the popular first-line Chen Zhenghao!

Xu Zhen looked at this person from a distance, slightly surprised, only to feel that his real appearance was much higher than in the photo.

In terms of facial features, Chen Zhenghao is not as famous as Ren Pengfei as him, and even less as He Junning and other traffic idols, but he is very charming, and he is a person with a story at first glance.

Objectively not handsome enough, but subjectively it makes people feel handsome, which is very unique.

After Chen Zhenghao entered the door, he turned his head to look, nodded at Zhong Tao with a smile, and then casually found an empty place by the door and sat down.

Zhong Tao also responded with a smile, and the politeness of the two stopped.

It wasn't until this moment that Xu Zhen finally smelled a hint of gunpowder in this small conference room.

The real competition probably took place between these two people, and the others were all accompanied.

But......

Xu Zhen closed his eyes gently.

Auditions are full of surprises.

- Don't you see, the favorites fell off the track one by one, and an inconspicuous runner had the last laugh?

……

"Director Du, are you starting?"

In the audition room, Tang Jian, the leader of the preparatory team of "Blue Blood Sword", looked at the time and said, "It's 9 o'clock, I'm going to call someone in?" ”

Director Du Qianshan confirmed the status of the camera behind him, nodded and said, "Okay, let's start." ”

"In the order of the list, call No. 1 Chen Zhenghao first."

After a while, the staff led Chen Zhenghao to the audition room.

Tang Jian, who was sitting on the far right side of the examiner's table, pointed to a stack of brown paper envelopes on the table, and said with a smile: "Zhenghao, let's draw one." ”

There are 37 envelopes in total, corresponding to 5 performance clips. Whichever paragraph you draw, you can play whichever paragraph. ”

Chen Zhenghao nodded understandingly.

He walked to the table, picked up a copy casually, opened it, and showed it to the examiners: "Clip No. 4, Xia Xueyi ate the lotus seed soup handed over by Wen Yi and found that it was poisonous. ”

This is a very late story of Xia Xueyi's line.

It is about the golden snake Langjun who kidnapped Wen Yi in order to take revenge on the Wen family, but inexplicably fell in love with this enemy girl and wanted to marry her.

The Wen family pretended to say that they wanted to turn the conflict into jade silk and hold a wedding banquet for the two, but unexpectedly, on the eve of the wedding banquet, they handed Xia Xueyi a bowl of poisonous lotus seed soup by Wen Yi's hand.

Tang Jian put his hand on the timer and said to Chen Zhenghao: "60 seconds to prepare." ”

Chen Zhenghao briefly skimmed the contents of the paper, then put it back and walked to the center of the performance venue.

"What's so fun?" He sat down in the swivel chair in the middle of the field with a soft smile on his face, and said, "The tailor brought your wedding dress?" ”

The female assistant on the side said: "How can it be so fast, the size just measured the day before yesterday." ”

"Come, drink the lotus seed soup."

The two chatted casually for a few days, and suddenly, Chen Zhenghao's face darkened.

His lips trembled slightly, his hand tightly grasped the handle of the swivel chair, and he looked up and said, "Wen Yi, you ......"

As he spoke, the tenderness in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by coldness and despair: "Even you hurt me!" ”

“……”

On the sidelines, director Du Qianshan saw this scene and silently drew a small triangle in front of Chen Zhenghao's name on the list.

Well, not bad.

There is no vanity under the fame, Chen Zhenghao's acting skills are indeed good, and the appeal is very strong.

After a while, the audition clip ended, and Du Qianshan simply asked him a few questions, such as how he understood the role, what needs he had for the script, etc., and let him go.

The second person to come to the mirror was Zhong Tao.

Coincidentally, he actually won this clip of drinking lotus seed soup.

However, when he performed this clip, several examiners in the room couldn't help but look at each other.

Uh, how do you say that......

Zhong Tao's feelings are very abundant, his line skills are excellent, and the emotional transformation between a few sentences is handled quite beautifully.

If you look at him alone, this is undoubtedly a very good performance.

However, when you compare it with the clip Chen Zhenghao just now, you will feel ......

Chen Zhenghao was deceived by his beloved, which made people feel distressed to watch;

However, this version of Zhong Tao is ......

Ah, that's still a bad guy.

It's not a good match! Good morning!
