There are dozens of actors in the audition hall at the moment, most of them are students of Beiying or Chinese opera, and some have played some roles and are famous, everyone has different experiences, but what is the same is that they have their own small circles with each other.

The audition has not officially begun, and the actors are chatting in their own small circles.

At nine o'clock in the morning, there was movement at the entrance, and the hall suddenly fell silent, and the crowd automatically moved out of the way, and the three men led by the staff walked in the direction of the small room for the audition.

Walking in the middle was a gray-haired man with glasses, this person looked to be about forty years old, and someone in the crowd whispered to his companions: "This is director Chen Musheng, director Cheng Long's movie "Who Am I". ”

On the left is an inch-haired man in a black suit, about fifty years old, who looks quite capable, and there are also many people who know him among the audition actors, this person is the director Huang Jianxin.

Walking on the right is a young man in his twenties, who has grown up quite handsome, but the most rare thing is that this person exudes calm and confidence from the inside out.

walked with people like Chen Musheng and Huang Jianxin, who have a lot of status in the film industry, but there was no trace of restraint, let alone the so-called walking etiquette that was half a step behind the two, but walked in with the two people who were quite equal all the way.

The actors in the hall were secretly speculating about the identity of this man.

Looking at this person's image and temperament, eighty percent is an actor, but no one in the hall has seen him, which shows that even an actor is a rookie actor, but a rookie actor should not be his kind of performance when facing bigwigs like Chen Musheng and Huang Jianxin.

Could it be the family of a certain bigwig in the entertainment industry?

The three of them got closer, and the content of their conversation with each other reached the ears of the people next to them.

I saw director Chen Musheng turn his head and say to the young man next to him: "Director Li, I carefully flipped through the script before going to bed yesterday, and I have some experience, I want to change a character setting in the script." ”

The young man said, "Which character is Director Chen talking about?" ”

"Pete, Pete who accosted two girls at the airport."

"What happened to that character?"

"I want to change this character to Chinese."

The young man thought for a moment and asked, "Is there a difference?" ”

Chen Musheng said: "Chinese people are still very cautious when they go out, and they are very vigilant, but when they meet fellow villagers or even the same province, they will feel very cordial, and they will be cheated unconsciously. Replacing Pete with Chinese, it is more reasonable for the two girls to lose their vigilance, and it can also remind the Chinese people that when they go out, strangers should be attentive and more vigilant, and fellow villagers should be more vigilant. ”

The young man nodded: "What Director Chen said also makes sense. ”

Chen Musheng said: "This character should be handsome enough, handsome, and polite, young girls have no resistance and are more likely to lose their guard. ”

The young man continued to nod.

Chen Musheng then said: "I don't think I'll look for other actors, don't our crew just have a ready-made Pete?" ”

The young man reacted quickly: "Director Chen, you can't be me, right?" ”

Chen Musheng said: "Director Li's reaction is really fast, I made a bet with Producer Huang in the morning to see when Director Li can react." ”

The young man laughed and said, "Then I'll try, if it doesn't work, I'll change people." ”

This young man is naturally Li Mu, he has been in the entertainment industry for more than 20 years in his previous life, although he spent most of his time behind the scenes, he usually does not do less things to make a cameo role on the top temporarily, and he does it well.

In his previous life, Li Mu's acting skills were good, if he hadn't had the face of a passerby, maybe he would have a better future as an actor than a director. Sometimes I have to admit that the actor industry really relies on his face to eat, and there are some things that will not be there after birth.

The three of them walked and talked into the audition room, and as soon as the door was closed, the hall began to talk.

"Chen Musheng called that young man Director Li?"

"That's right, I heard it very clearly, it's Director Li."

"Didn't you say that Chen Musheng is a director? This young man is an assistant director at most, right? How could Director Chen be so polite to a young assistant director? It looked like he was asking for his consent. ”

"It's weird, and this person is so young."

"Which big guy's son is it?"

"Do you think the quality of Director Xiangjiang is better?"

", I have cooperated with Xiangjiang filmmakers a lot, not to mention that the eyes grow on the top of the head, at least on the forehead."

Now that everyone has arrived, the auditions will officially begin. The actors were called into the small room inside in order by the staff.

There are no too important roles in today's audition, and it is a modern drama, and even makeup is saved, that is, the actors are called in, and the three of them look at the image and temperament, and if they are a little optimistic, they will ask a few more words, listen to each other's conversation, and there are not even a few who let the lines go.

Li Mu basically didn't express his opinion, the male protagonist Cheng Long in this play was not set by the director, the role of the daughter was not set by the director, the role of the star at the beginning was not set by the director, how many important roles are there left?

Li Mu has been a director for more than ten years in his previous life, and he compares his heart to his heart, so don't interfere, and the director can choose whoever he wants.

"Hello director, I'm He Baiwei, a junior in Chinese opera studying ......"

"Let's go back and wait for news."

I don't know how many it is today, but less than a minute after the girl came in, she was sent away by Chen Musheng on the grounds that she was not beautiful enough.

No matter how you say it, you are also a student of Chinese opera, take out one casually, and throw it on the street, there are all beauties, but in the actor's industry, it is very important to be beautiful, but at the same time, there are too many beautiful girls, and there is a serious surplus of resources, so the inevitable standard of beauty is very high.

Then another girl came in.

"The two directors are good, Huang is a good producer, I am Song Qi, and I graduated from the opera."

"Have you played any roles?"

"In 01, he starred in "I Don't Want to Go" directed by Ma Jin, playing the rich girl Qin Peipei; starred in "The More You Live and the More Exciting" starring Bao Jianfeng in 02, she is the second female lead in it; In 03, he starred in "Very Romantic" starring Tong Dawei, playing the role of Shanshan, the girlfriend of a boss. ”

Chen Musheng discussed with Huang Jianxin and Li Mu in a low voice.

"The image doesn't fit, what do you think?"

"The temperament is a little worse, why don't you let her go back and wait for the notice."

Li Mu knew that Song Qi had been eliminated, in Li Mu's heart, Song Qi was considered to have better acting skills among post-80s actresses, but in today's audition, there was no chance for her to show her acting skills at all, so she simply asked a few words, and was eliminated in less than two minutes.

The entertainment industry is still very cruel.

"You play a dying person first, show us, whether he is injured or seriously ill, in short, he has reached a state where he has run out of oil and dried up."

Chen Musheng was just about to send people away, and when he heard the words, he swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

Song Qi looked left and right when she heard this, there was a chair in front of her, and there were no other props that could be used, then she stared at the ground twice, and then lay directly on the floor.

Her actions stunned the people in the room, and then I saw that her mouth was slightly open, her eyes were gently closed, occasionally opened for a moment to look at the ceiling, and then quickly closed again, and after a while she opened slightly again, her eyes were a little hollow, and her breathing sounded weak, and she looked unusually prostration.

Chen Musheng whispered: "Among the actors who came to audition today, it is relatively good." ”

Huang Jianxin nodded when he heard this.

Chen Musheng said again: "It should be appropriate to play the girl who was rescued because she was wearing the coat of the protagonist's daughter." ”

All three nodded.

So Chen Musheng said to Song Ji: "Okay, get up and go back and wait for the notice." ”

Hearing this, Song Qi turned her head slightly to the three of them, and at the same time tried to open her eyes, just these two subtle movements seemed to have consumed all her strength, and then she closed her eyes again, as if she didn't hear Director Chen's words clearly.

Every move really looks like a seriously ill person who hears someone talking in his ear and has no strength to react.

"Alright, alright, get up." Chen Musheng said again.

Song Qi stood up very quickly.

"Let's go back and wait for the notice."

"Thank you two directors, thank you Producer Huang." Song Ji bowed and thanked him, then turned around and walked out of the room.

Li Mulai had thought about it before he auditioned today and didn't express his opinion, but before he knew it, he decided on another actor.

About half an hour later, Ms. Liu Xiaoli brought her daughter Liu Yifei to the audition, saying that it was an audition, but in fact, it was just a formality, and by the way, she was familiar with director Chen Musheng and producer Huang Jianxin, and then signed the contract by the way. In less than an hour, Ms. Liu left with her daughter Liu Yifei.

The audition lasted until two o'clock in the afternoon, and the whole process was quite smooth, most of the roles were settled, but the role of the protagonist's ex-wife could not be decided for a while, and the three of them discussed for a while, and each thought of a few candidates, but after careful analysis, I felt that it was not so suitable.

In the end, Li Mu simply found Liu Yifei from the contacts, the two were the numbers they saved each other when they met at the West Film Studio, and then he edited a text message and sent it over.

"The mother of your role has not been decided yet, ask your mother if she wants to play it, if you want, I recommend giving it a try."

A moment later, Liu Yifei's text message arrived, and it was three question marks.

“？？？”

After a while, Liu Yifei immediately sent a second text message: "You mean that the role of the mother of the role I want to play has not been decided, let me ask my own mother if she wants that role, right?" ”

Li Mu was just about to reply, when the third text message came again: "You deliberately mixed the two mothers and said that you just want to see if I can react, right?" If I can't react, you'll laugh at me for being stupid when we meet in the future, right? Luckily, I reacted quickly enough. ”

Li Mu deleted the text message that had just been edited halfway, and then re-edited one: "Didn't I say it clearly enough?" Look at the things you sent yourself, and it's the role of the mother of the character you're going to play, and it's your own mother's, and the number of words is so meaningful and messy, and then you still think I should ask you that. ”

After a while, Liu Yifei sent another message: "Then you can ask me if the role of Cheng Long's ex-wife has not yet been decided, and then ask my mother if she wants to play it, in short, you just want to see my jokes." ”

After a while, Liu Yifei's text message arrived again: "My mother said that she wanted to act, and Director Li recommended it." I was stunned for a moment just now, I don't blame you, I want you to apologize. ”

After a while, another text message came: "It's me to you, not I miss you, typo." ”

Li Muxin said: "It turned out to be an obsessive-compulsive disorder. ”
