Chapter 34: The Audition Begins
"Gone." Shen Jiaqi said to the four people in the room, and the five of them returned to the villa where they practiced together.
Shen Jiaqi roughly arranged the affairs of the two days, and accompanied Ke Song in the villa to observe the changes of the four people.
The day came to the day of Ruan Qinghe's audition.
Before entering, Yuyang was a little nervous, Shen Jiaqi patted him on the shoulder and said to the four of them, "Take it easy, let's be Shen Shen as a backer, and there will be other resources in the future." ”
All four nodded.
But how many opportunities can compare to the movie show in Nguyen Thanh Ha? The gold content of their audition this time is very clear to everyone here, and they all want to get this opportunity.
When they came to Ruan Qinghe's home, the four of them followed the instructions of Ruan Qinghe's assistant to the courtyard.
Stepping through a circular wall door, Shen Jiading and the five of them saw Ruan Qinghe sitting under a shade umbrella.
In between, he sat comfortably on a wooden chair in the courtyard in army green clothes, and his hair was very smooth, giving people a gentle feeling.
Shen Jiaqi was a little surprised, she imagined Ruan Qinghe to be the kind of ghost who likes to be dark, usually unkempt at home, and completely messy as an artist.
But apparently the person in front of her shattered her stereotype.
Hearing that someone was coming, Ruan Qinghe raised his head, he knew that today was the time for Shen Jiading to come to the audition.
Seeing that the person who came was a woman with four young boys, Ruan Qinghe's eyes flashed with a trace of dissatisfaction and loss, and he looked behind several people and found that the person really didn't come.
His brows furrowed slightly, revealing the unhappiness in his heart.
Shen Jiaqi quickly captured this, and became more cautious in his heart. After all, the director's "fame" is not likely to be as gentle as he looks.
"Director Ruan, Mr. Shen, they are here." The servant finished his introduction and left.
"Director Ruan, hello," Shen Jiaqi was generous, "I'm Shen Jiading's sister, I'm here to take our artist to audition." ”
Ruan Qinghe looked Shen Jiaqi up and down, there were some similarities with that person, but there were more differences.
He said coldly, "Sit down." ”
Shen Jiaqi motioned for a few people to sit, and the four of them obediently sat down with Shen Jiaqi, all of them were very well-behaved, their bodies were straight, and their hands were placed on their knees very regularly.
Ruan Qinghe looked at the four of them looking so restrained and young, and snorted coldly in his heart.
If it weren't for that person who spoke, how could he possibly give the opportunity to a few vain showmen.
This kind of small fresh meat is being updated one after another in the entertainment industry.
Seeing that Ruan Qinghe didn't speak for a long time, Shen Jiaqi took the initiative to introduce, "Director Ruan, these are the four children to be interviewed this time, they are Yuyang, Fang Xingwen, Bai Rinhan, and Xiao Heyan. ”
Ruan Qinghe looked in the direction of Shen Jiaqi's finger one by one, and the people who were called by name all showed polite smiles one after another.
"Hmm." Ruan Qinghe replied lightly, "What about Mr. Shen?" ”
"My brother can't come over because of the company's temporary emergency, so he asked me to tell you more." Shen Jiaqi explained.
I don't know why, the day before yesterday, Shen Jiading called her and said that she couldn't accompany her to Ruan Qinghe because of something, and asked her to find a reason casually, at that time, the two of them planned to take them with Shen Jiaqi alone, if Shen Jiading didn't have time, it would be nothing.
His brother doesn't know what's going on lately, and he's always working overtime.
Ruan Qinghe listened to Shen Jiaqi's words, his eyes looked at the ground in the distance, and he couldn't see his expression.
Busy at work? Busy with work and still thinking about taking care of an assistant? He clearly didn't want to see him!
The picture of Shen Jiaqi carefully taking care of the man in front of the hospital bed flashed in his mind again, and he felt an indescribable depression in his heart.
Why was he so attentive to that man? Don't...... Suddenly realizing something, Ruan Qinghe's heart tingled, and he was so uncomfortable......
"Director Ruan?" Shen Jiaqi watched Ruan Qinghe wander and reminded loudly.
"Oh, it's okay," Ruan Qinghe glanced at the four of them coldly, "At the beginning, Mr. Shen told me that although the four of them were young, they were all good seedlings with spirituality, and I reluctantly relented in my friendship with Mr. Shen in the past." ”
After speaking, Ruan Qinghe leisurely raised a cup of tea and took a sip gently, "But these four seem to be nothing more than that." ”
"Mr. Shen followed the old friendship and asked me to open the back door, I agreed, but I didn't expect him to deceive me like this, I'm afraid he didn't come today because he didn't have time but didn't dare to come to see me."
Ruan Qinghe put down the teacup, "You don't need to try this mirror, you can go." ”
Ruan Qinghe's fluttering words blinded Shen Jiaqi's five people.
Fang Xingwen and the four of them were a little flustered, they had been preparing for this audition for a long time, they had been studying acting classes every day, and even when it was time to rest at night, the four of them would slowly ponder, they had put so much effort and expectation into this, but now they were denied by Ruan Qinghe's words.
Shen Jiaqi calmed the somewhat restless boys around her, she turned her head to look at Ruan Qinghe and said, "Director Ruan, you haven't seen the performance of these four children, why do you say that they are not suitable?" ”
"You're questioning me?" Ruan Qinghe asked Shen Jiaqi rhetorically, "I know at a glance that it is a defective product, why waste my things?" ”
"Mr. Shen, it's the first time you've brought a newcomer, but it's not the first time I've faced these so-called little fresh meat."
Because of Shen Jiading, Ruan Qinghe is in a very bad mood now, he doesn't want to buy Shen Jiading's favor, since he makes himself unhappy, he won't give him face.
"It turns out that Director Ruan, who is rumored to have very high requirements for his works, actually treats his works so casually and despises actors," Shen Jiaqi was also angry when he heard Ruan Qinghe's answer, "I thought that the director who could make a work like "Breaking the Sky" was a very good director, a director who only wanted to concentrate on making a good movie, but I didn't expect you to be such a vulgar person who relied on his power to cheat others at will. ”
Ruan Qinghe squinted his eyes and laughed angrily, "Fraud? You go ahead? ”
"It's ridiculous that you can judge the quality of an actor and whether it's a good movie for you just by your own feelings, and I don't rule out that there are some actors who fit your setting very well and make you fall in love with it at a glance, but what about the people you denied at the time? Do you dare to say that you haven't missed out on talent? ”
Or do you have to find the right actor for your role to make a movie, and if you can't find the right actor, you can't make a good movie? Then the praise of the outside world for you is fake, and you use such a fake name to attract talents and build momentum for your movie! ”
"Besides, an excellent actor will separate himself from the character very well, the actor himself is sunny, but they can also perform a melancholy and sinister image, and switch the character and themselves back and forth freely, this is a good actor, otherwise what is everyone auditioning for? is to choose actors who can play the role well, rather than playing themselves. ”
Shen Jiaqi paused for a moment, and said with some hesitation, "And you have already promised my brother, now that we are here, at least you have to give these four people a chance to show themselves, and you have directly denied them with such a sentence now, and did not give them any chance, which is also different from what you promised my brother, you deceived my brother." ”
Shen Jiaqi was a little hesitant when she said the last sentence, because she felt that Ruan Qinghe was a little dissatisfied because her brother didn't come, but when she thought that Ruan Qinghe actually agreed to her brother's request to open the back door for them, then the friendship between them must be not shallow.
Hearing Shen Jiaqi's series of answers, Ruan Qinghe slowly looked at her again.
She just said that she was talking about it, and she really looked like Shen Jiading arguing with him for her artist.
Thinking of the scene where that person once argued with a group of investors for him, Ruan Qinghe was suddenly a little stunned.
"Director Ruan, please give these children a chance, at least let them try, at least don't disappoint everyone who cares." Shen Jiaqi is still fighting for opportunities for the four.
Ruan Qinghe suddenly laughed, he was so delicate, if it weren't for the sarcasm just now, he would have given the impression of being the image of a quiet artist.
"I don't have to call you all the time, I can't be a few years older than you," Ruan Qinghe looked at Shen Jiaqi, "I'm only thirty-three this year, and I'm not as old as President Shen." ”
Shen Jiaji realized that what he said about Shen always referred to her brother, her brother is an old leftover man in Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and his aunt has been urging him to get married.
"Oh, that's okay." The edge on Shen Jiaqi's body is released and retracted.
Ruan Qinghe looked at Shen Jiaqi in front of him carefully, he knew that Shen Jiading had always had a very doted sister, and it was rare to meet her today, he thought that with Shen Jiading's degree of pampering, he would only raise a pampered eldest lady, but he didn't expect to be so sharp-toothed, neither humble nor arrogant.
After she had just scolded herself, she actually put down her face and fought for these four boys for a chance, Ruan Qinghe sighed that these four little ghosts were lucky to follow such a young good boss.
He did not deny that he had just rejected the four because of his private emotions, and he looked at the four young faces and admitted that they were faces that were perfect for the camera.
He noticed that one of them had a temperament that was on the cold side, but he was not pretentious, which made him look at Bai Rinhan a few more times.
Ruan Qinghe relieved, "Okay, I'll give you a chance, but say in advance, everyone only has one chance to audition." ”
"I'd like to see how good the person you say is."
Ruan Qinghe threw out four notebooks, "You take a look first, this is the story I roughly drafted, you read it on the spot and understand it on the spot, I will give you forty minutes to prepare, whether you can pass it depends on yourself." ”
After Ruan Qinghe finished speaking, he got up and left the courtyard and came to his living room.
Shen Jiaqi didn't care too much about the five of them, they had to seize all the time to prepare for the audition.
Forty minutes passed quickly, and Ruan Qinghe slowly walked out and looked at the four people who were preparing and said, "The audition begins." ”
