Chapter Seventy-Three: Doubtful Believers

Hearing Fang Bo say this, the manager of the production department smiled and waved his hand, "Director Fang, it's not that you're late, it's that we're early." ”

Feng Shuming, who was on the side, looked down at his watch and echoed: "Director Fang came just in time, the time is just right." ”

Shen Zhuo, who has always been cautious, is willing to take the risk of investing 20 million in "A Good Show", and his optimism about Fang Bo is self-evident.

The president of the company is so important to Fang Bo, of course, the people below will not contradict him, and they are all very polite to Fang Bo.

Fang Bo also understood that he didn't have any status in the film industry, and they were only looking at Shen Zhuo's face to be extremely humble to themselves, so they were not arrogant, and after shaking hands with them one by one and saying hello, they came to their seats and sat down.

Before the audition started, Song Huaiyuan, who was sitting on his right hand, said with a smile: "Director Fang, you don't have to consider my and Manager Wang's opinions in the audition, we are just here to have a good time, how to cast, it all depends on your ideas." ”

Manager Wang of the production department also nodded, "Yes, we just came to take a look, Director Fang, you don't have to worry about us." ”

They came today purely to help support the field, lest some actors who came to audition despise Fang Bo because he was young.

Therefore, before the audition, they first handed over the bottom to Fang Bo, so as not to have any scruples.

A few people were talking while outside in the lounge.

Sitting in a group of movie actors, Li Hao, who is a TV series actor, was a little nervous.

There is a chain of contempt in the entertainment industry, those who make movies look down on those who make TV series, and after coming to the lounge before, the other actors don't treat him very well, and there is not even a person who comes up to talk.

Of course, after staying in the entertainment industry for a few years, he has seen a lot of this kind of scene, and the nervousness is not purely because of this, but more because he never thought that he could audition for "A Good Show".

He is a TV drama actor, and he is also a small actor outside the third or fourth line, it has been almost two years since his debut, and he only played supporting roles in two TV series before, but unfortunately the two dramas were not popular after they were broadcast, and his small supporting role naturally did not have any popularity.

His luck seems to have changed a little better this year, and he is not famous in the field of TV dramas. actually starred in a theatrical movie.

It's just that the reason why it is said to be "seemingly" is because the name of the theatrical movie he starred in is "Dream Chaser".

After Wu Xiaofei got an investment of more than 30 million from Huanyu Film and Television, he didn't think much about it at all, and directly found several second- and third-tier stars as starring actors.

Although several leading actors are not paid well for the sake of Wu Shaolin and Huanyu Film and Television, they are also second- and third-tier movie stars, and the salaries of several people add up to one or two million.

As a result, after the contract was signed, Wu Xiaofei calculated a little, and the rest of the money was enough to make a movie, but the other supporting roles had not yet been settled.

So Li Hao, who is handsome but well-known, and has a cheap salary, was selected to play a supporting role in "Dream Chaser", if nothing else, just to save some money.

Knowing that his audition was successful, Li Hao was overjoyed at first, thinking that he had finally come to work.

In order to seize the opportunity, even if he played a small supporting role, after getting the script, he began to ponder his role repeatedly and studied it seriously for a long time.

When it came time for the official shooting, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and devoted all his energy to the role.

After paying so much, there are also gains, and he himself feels that his performance is extraordinary, and this time is the best role he has played in the past two years.

But soon after the filming of "Dream Chaser" began, Wu Xiaofei, who lost the supervision of the producer, quickly let go of himself and began to ask the actors to perform with drama-style exaggerated expressions and movements.

At the request of director Wu Xiaofei, although he and other actors thought that it was not possible to act like this, they could only obey orders.

Sure enough, as soon as "Dream Chaser" was released, it was sprayed with bad movies.

And what the audience complained about the most was the exaggerated performance of the actors, in addition to the bloody plot and outrageous editing.

Given by this big bad movie that was hastily withdrawn within a few days of its release, Li Hao not only failed to develop into the film industry as he wished, but also couldn't even go back and shoot a TV series.

He didn't have popularity and traffic in the first place, and he used to be able to play roles all by his own acting skills, but after being ruined by "Dream Chaser", he went to audition again, and other directors didn't even watch it, so they eliminated him directly.

Since he finished acting in "Dream Chaser", it is now the end of August, and he has not even received a role in a few months, and seeing that the future is bleak, he even wants to change his career.

But I don't know what's going on, a few days ago, my agent suddenly told him that a movie called "A Good Show" invited him to audition for the second male lead.

Audition?

Male number two?

Hearing this news, Li Hao was stunned.

In a few months, this is the first time that the crew has taken the initiative to invite him to audition.

It can't be fooling, right?

The news was so unexpected that he had such an idea.

But the agent's answer dispelled his doubts.

"This is an audition invitation from Huarui Film and Television, and the director of the movie is Fang Bo, who is the Fang Bo who filmed "Night Club"!"

The agent's tone was very excited, but Li Hao was quite puzzled.

The box office of "Night Club" has exceeded 100 million, Director Fang shouldn't worry about finding an actor, right?

He has no friendship with Director Fang at all, how could he invite himself to audition? is still such an important role as the male number two, which sounds too unrealistic.

He was puzzled, repeatedly confirmed the authenticity of the news, and repeatedly got a positive answer from the agent, and then prepared for the audition in doubt.

Until this moment, he was sitting in the lounge of Huarui Film and Television, but in fact, he still felt suspicious in his heart.

There's no reason why such a good thing would fall on you.

Could it be that Wu Xiaofei's past remarks angered Director Fang, so Director Fang called himself over, calling himself an audition, but he actually wanted to scold himself for being angry?

Thinking of this, he felt that the serious preparation in the past few days might not be useful today, and he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

……

In the audition room, Fang Bo and the others chatted about the same, and when they saw that the time was up, they asked the staff to notify the actors outside to come in one by one in order.

The auditions have officially begun.

In order to have a comparison, this morning only the actor who auditioned for the second male lead was notified.

The second male number in the movie is called Ma Xing, who is the cousin of the male protagonist Ma Jin, in terms of character setting, he is only in his twenties and has just stepped into society, so he is ignorant of the world and has a simple personality.

But that's only in the first half of the movie.

In the second half, after everyone was stranded on a desert island, he saw with his own eyes that everyone turned against each other and fought with each other, so his personality changed greatly, went to the other extreme, and began to seek benefits for himself by unscrupulous means.

It is not an easy task for a group of young actors in their twenties and thirties to perform the changes in the characters' personalities, so this morning's audition is not easy.
