Chapter 24: Auditions
Xinghai Entertainment Building
Ji Lanxi went to record a song accompanied by Fan Nana, and Lin Haiyang came to Wang Donglai's office.
"The preliminary preparations for "Chess Soul" are almost over, and now there are only actors left." As he spoke, Wang Donglai poured a glass of water for Lin Haiyang.
Lin Haiyang took the teacup and took a sip and said, "Well, do you have any intentions?" ”
"The starring role has basically been finalized, and there are many young young actors in our company, for example, this Lele used to be a young actor used to be the queen of our company, born as a child star, his acting skills are no problem, and his age is just right, but the role of Chu Huan has not yet been decided, mainly because he has no clue about the identity of the chess god, and he has auditioned some people recently, but they all feel a little less interesting."
"Hmm."
Lin Haiyang nodded, "Chess Soul" is a group drama, some people are successful, some people regret to quit, some people insist on their beliefs, and some people begin to meet new challenges.
Chu Huan, one of the most important characters in the play, has the greatest wish that he can pick up chess pieces and continue to play chess, so as to find "one of the gods".
He has been waiting for this long-cherished wish for nearly a thousand years. For thousands of years, he could only borrow other people's bodies to play chess again and again, until he met time.
He has always been by his side, watching the little boy who was ignorant and didn't know anything about Go, and was influenced by himself little by little, and walked into the "Go world" step by step.
If Yu Liang is the one who inspires Time, then Chu Huan is the one who makes Time really know Go.
Chu Huan was afraid of separating from time, and said that he would always play chess with him and accompany him until he was old, but in the end it was himself who broke his promise. Chu Huan didn't dare to tell the truth of time, so he had to take advantage of his sleep to express his reluctance.
I wanted to say goodbye, but unfortunately ...... Somewhat late!
Chu Huan's obsession with Go is true, but her last birthday wish is the most moving.
I said that we would ride a tandem together the next day, but the next day, Time rode a tandem and searched all corners of the street, but I didn't find that familiar shadow.
As far as time is concerned, Chu Huan is also a teacher and a friend, and he has long been accustomed to his existence. All happiness, all unwillingness, all will be shared with Chu Huan for the first time.
The moon was there, and the man was gone.
"Some people only exist for you in the dark."
When one day, his mission is completed, and he is left alone, maybe this is the destined ending of Chu Huan.
Never say in life: no next time, no tomorrow, another day.
It's going to be today! Because no one can be sure whether the cherished person will disappear without realizing it.
"Chu Huan's role is auditioning again today, or let's go and see it."
"Okay."
Under the leadership of Wang Donglai, Lin Haiyang came to the audition floor for recruiting actors, and saw a group of actors who came to audition waiting outside, some came alone, some were accompanied by agents or assistants, and the most exaggerated thing was that Lin Haiyang saw an idol with seven or eight assistants surrounding him.
The oppressive crowd and noisy voices at the scene made him frown a little unpleasantly, but he didn't say much.
Seeing the arrival of the two, people who were not coming to audition stood up and said hello.
"Brother Wang."
"Brother Wang is good."
"Brother Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Mr. Lin is good, Brother Wang is good."
The person who greeted Lin Haiyang was obviously Xinghai's contracted artist, and he knew Lin Haiyang's identity, but more people didn't know who Lin Haiyang was.
The two of them just nodded faintly in response and entered the room.
At this time, the director in the room who was about to start the audition was looking at the list in his hand, and when he saw someone breaking in directly, he looked up at the door, and saw that it was Wang Donglai, so he stood up and said hello with a smile.
"This is Lin Haiyang, the vice president of our company, and also the screenwriter of our drama "Chess Soul", Haiyang, this is Zhang Xu, the chief director of "Chess Soul".
"Hello Mr. Lin."
"Hello."
After a simple greeting, Lin Haiyang asked directly: "Do you have any thoughts about the actor in the role of Chu Huan?" ”
"There are indeed some ideas, Chu Huan has an obsession with Go in the play, and his experience is also a tragedy, but his own character is very humorous and funny, and the shaping of this complex and diversified image may be challenging for actors, so I have not been able to find an actor who meets the temperament of this chess god until now."
Lin Haiyang nodded, that's true, Chu Huan is a character that no one can see except for time in terms of setting, so his opponent is only time, and the setting of the role can't hold anything, so the actor can't use some props to perform, which is also a big test for the actor's acting skills.
The first actor walked in, very young, Lin Haiyang saw that there seemed to be an assistant at the door and waved his fist at him, as if to cheer.
Director Zhang took the list and whispered in Lin Haiyang's ear: "This person's name is Xu Chen, he was born in a professional class, and he has acted in a lot of plays before, basically all of them are supporting roles, and he has won a newcomer award." ”
After Director Zhang finished speaking, he glanced at the watch in his hand and said, "Let's start." ”
I have to say that he is worthy of being born in a professional class, this person's acting skills are very good, he is also very serious, and his performance is very spiritual.
Wang Donglai also nodded slightly, "It's not bad." ”
Lin Haiyang agrees with Wang Donglai's words, it's not bad, but it's just good, it's mainly temperament, he can't see Chu Huan's pride as a chess god, it's more just a decent plot.
"I'm still younger, but it would be better if I was older and had more experience."
"Hmm."
Because he was still the first, it was impossible to give the results directly, and several of them just made annotations on paper. This audition form will be discussed after the audition.
The second actor who came in was the idol I saw before, he was quite tall, with dyed yellow hair, and heavy makeup on his face, and the few people who watched it were a little speechless.
The whole performance process is like a classic thorn in the back, like a fish in the throat, like sitting on pins and needles.
"Okay, thanks, we'll give you the results later." Zhang Xu couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped directly.
"Thank you, Director Zhang, I have directly watched the play directed by you, I like it very much, if I can cooperate with you, it is really a blessing for Sansheng..."
"Okay, thanks, I see, please get out and wait, we still need to do the next audition." Zhang Xu said impatiently.
Ten actors came in a row to audition, and there was only one person left.
Wang Donglai picked up the form and said: "I think No. 1 and No. 6 are good, but they both have their own problems, No. 7 is quite consistent in terms of image, but unfortunately, the acting skills are really bad." ”。
Zhang Xu nodded in agreement, and then said: "I agree, No. 1 and No. 6 are more of a problem of image and temperament, and No. 7's appearance conditions are the most suitable for the role of Chu Huan, and if the problem of acting skills can be adjusted, it should be very good, I am more optimistic about him." ”
"Well, go ahead, isn't there another person, maybe there will be a bit of a surprise."
