Chapter 567: Zhang Songwen, I'm optimistic about you
In mid-October, the temperature in Yanjing drops slightly, and people generally wear long sleeves or a coat when they go out.
Even celebrities pay more attention to keeping warm.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the sky was gloomy and the autumn wind was bleak.
A commercial vehicle slowly drove towards the Liangmahe embassy area, and in addition to the driver, there were two men sitting in the car.
A man in his thirties, with his hair combed back and a suit in his suit, looked quite capable, and was reading a book at this time, but from time to time he closed the book and looked out.
The other, much younger, in his twenties, was playing a game on his phone.
Zhang Songwen closed the book, glanced at the assistant, and then asked, "What game to play?" ”
The assistant naturally handed the mobile phone to Zhang Songwen, "Brother, Bubble Hall, just run around, connect with bubbles, and then explode to destroy the enemy." ”
Zhang Songwen nodded, "You play." ”
The assistant picked up the phone, thought about it, and then took out the food bag that had been prepared a long time ago, "Brother, do you want to eat a little, the taro buns, pumpkin buns, sweet potato buns, and soy milk I bought are still hot, but they are fragrant." ”
Taro buns, pumpkin buns, and sweet potato buns are not buns, but a kind of pancake breakfast that is very popular in Guangdong Province.
Taro, pumpkin, sweet potato sliced, then banana rice flour, and then put into the oil pan to fry, out of the pot fragrant and crispy, in Guangdong, Jiangxi and Hunan provinces have.
Zhang Songwen took this bite, he felt like he was going home after eating this.
At this time, the aroma of frying spread, as if returning to the small town of Guangdong Province, at the sixteenth time, facing the early morning glow, the female classmate wore a school uniform and walked past the roadside stall, while he sat in a daze, eating, while watching.
It's so fragrant.
"No need."
Zhang Songwen took a sip of the fragrance of his hometown, hesitated slightly, and then shook his head.
He didn't eat last night and didn't plan to eat this morning.
In the prime of life, occasionally being hungry for two meals will not affect your health.
And for actors, the face is thinner, more photogenic, and it is easier to appear with big eyes.
The reason why he did this time was for the audition for "Dalian by the Sea" this morning.
It is said that dozens of actors submitted information and recommended themselves to be the leading actor in "Dalian by the Sea".
Li Shengyao carefully selected and identified six people, Zhang Songwen was one of them, and he had been in the state of brewing for the past two days.
Last night, I wasn't going to eat this morning.
In addition, he slept at ten o'clock last night, ran for half an hour this morning, drank three glasses of water, and sweated.
He did all this to show his best in today's audition.
Now he was rushing to the Liangmahe Mansion, and he didn't want to eat at this time, and his mouth was full of greasy.
When the assistant heard this, he nodded, then put away his mobile phone and said in a low voice: "Brother, you are the most suitable person, Director Li will definitely choose you." ”
Zhang Songwen smiled, "How do you know?" ”
"I went to Taiqing Temple yesterday to worship God, and I drew a lot, and it was signed."
"Okay, thank you, if you can really become the male lead actor of Director Li, I will give you a red envelope."
There is nothing new in the entertainment industry, especially now that the Internet is so developed, and actors have established various groups.
Zhang Songwen learned the news last night, and the six actors selected by Li Shengyao in the end were Zhang Yi, Duan Yihong, Lei Jiayin, Zhang Jiayi, Zhang Songwen, and Wang Xiao.
There is no idol faction, all of them are powerful actors.
Among them, Zhang Jiayi is particularly popular, his three dramas in the past three years, "Snail House", "Borrowed Gun", and "Cliff" are all big hits, all of which are the top ten works in the annual ratings.
Last year, he also won the Magnolia Award for Best Actor for "Borrowed Gun".
In addition, Duan Yihong has always been the favorite actor of big directors, and others have not acted in many movies, but Duan Yihong has acted in many movies, including Lee Shengyao's "Border Killer".
Zhang Songwen knows that it will be very difficult to stand out this time, but who doesn't want to play Director Li's works?
As long as there is hope, even if it is difficult, he is willing to try.
Soon after, the business car rushed to the Liangmahe Building, Zhang Songwen came to Fenghua Film and Television Company with his assistant, and soon saw other actors who came to audition in the conference hall.
None of them are big names like Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei, and there is no situation where they don't need to audition.
Everyone is not embarrassed, either playing with their mobile phones or chatting.
Zhang Songwen sat next to Zhang Jiayi, smiling and listening to Zhang Jiayi bragging with Lei Jiayin.
Zhang Jiayi seems to have a bit of a problem with her lumbar spine and is slightly hunchbacked, but he is the person with the biggest eyes among the six people.
"Snail House", "Borrowed Gun", and "Cliff" are all acting leaders, relatively speaking, he has the strongest aura among the six people.
"Dalian by the Sea" is said to need an ordinary and very mournful male lead, so it doesn't seem to be very suitable for Zhang Jiayi.
However, the temperament of a powerful actor is changeable, Zhang Jiayi has played a lot of small characters before, Zhang Songwen doesn't think that Zhang Jiayi is hopeless like this.
At nine o'clock, Li Shengyao came over.
Tall, young, handsome, and won two Palme d'Or, Lee Shengyao, the whole person seems to shine, with his own aura, and when he walks into the conference room, he is more dazzling than the actors.
Zhang Songwen felt that there was a feeling of looking at Liu Dehua, the natural focus, so dazzling and gorgeous.
Li Shengyao smiled and nodded at everyone, read out the names of the actors one by one, and finally said: "Everyone is willing to come to audition, I am honored, then let's start, three days at the latest, no matter what we choose in the end, I will contact you and tell you the result." ”
Li Shengyao's voice is steady, not loud, but full of energy.
Zhang Songwen feels that Li Shengyao may have learned the way of speaking as an actor, and he can speak more clearly than ordinary people.
"Let's try on makeup first."
Then a makeup artist came over and took six people to try on makeup.
Zhang Songwen left with the makeup artist, and the makeup artist changed his hairstyle, the original big back hair was changed to natural short hair, and he changed into a white overalls with a pair of light blue pulp jeans.
Zhang Songwen looked in the mirror and immediately understood that the makeup artist wanted to transform him into an ordinary middle-aged man.
He smoothed his hair with his hand, then looked around, "Do you have any handbags?" ”
When the makeup artist heard this, he found a handbag for Zhang Songwen.
"Teacher Zhang, you are still careful."
Zhang Songwen smiled, then looked in the mirror, then changed a pair of shoes, replaced his leather shoes with a pair of sports net shoes, and borrowed an autumn jacket, folded it and stuffed it into his handbag.
He nodded in satisfaction, and then went to the conference hall.
The others had already arrived.
found that except for Lei Jiayin, who had changed his clothes, the others had brought other items besides changing clothes.
Zhang Yi carried a supermarket shopping bag with a few bottles of canned beer and a box of bread in it.
Zhang Jiayi is holding an old thermos cup.
Duan Yihong was also carrying a handbag.
Wang Xiao was carrying a backpack, the backpack was flat, and there was nothing to see.
Zhang Songwen's eyes wandered, he felt that everyone had a similar temperament at this time, that is, middle-aged people in life, a little depressed.
However, if he really wants to divide one, two, three, he thinks Wang Xiao is the best, Zhang Yi is second, and Duan Yihong is third.
Lei Jiayin is similar to Zhang Jiayi, and his temperament is not so sad.
Wang Xiao is a second-generation actor, and his mother is a famous actress in the last century, but he is not like the average second-generation star, he is very low-key, and he looks at it with a sense of humility.
And Wang Xiao's acting is very natural, no matter what the role is, he can always integrate with the environment.
Zhang Songwen sighed in his heart, feeling that it was worth the trip, this audition, everyone was very serious, even if it was unsuccessful, it was not ashamed.
At this time, Li Shengyao's voice sounded again, "Very good, very good, let's play a scene next, there are six plots here, you can pick at will, and prepare in half an hour." ”
Zhang Songwen and others then took a line.
Li Shengyao sat there and watched, everyone was embarrassed to choose, and they all took it at hand.
The lines that Zhang Songwen got are the scenes of the actor and his ex-wife reuniting after a few years and talking on the street.
I saw the door open, and several gorgeous actors walked in.
The one who played against Zhang Songwen turned out to be the current popular Liu Shishi.
"Step by Step" is a big hit, and Liu Shishi claims to have 300 million little lions, which is one of the hottest young actresses now.
"Teacher Zhang, I heard that I could come over to study, so I took the initiative to come, don't be surprised."
"Where, where, I have to thank you."
The two exchanged a few polite words, and then began to play.
Liu Shishi's acting talent is average, but the audience is quite good.
With Zhang Songwen's current coffee position, in normal film and television dramas, Liu Shishi is the heroine, and he is not popular enough to be the male protagonist.
Zhang Songwen felt that Master Liu had a very good personality, loved to laugh, and cooperated happily.
Half an hour passed quickly.
Then they started to perform one by one.
It's not an official shooting, there is no such thing as shouting cards, even if it's wrong, it's a hard shot.
Zhang Songwen has been observing carefully, this time he found that these actors are all powerful, and their memories are really good, put down the script, and then be able to make expressions and say lines at the same time.
On the contrary, it is a beautiful actor who comes to play, his acting skills are not good, and he doesn't look smooth.
Soon it was Zhang Songwen's turn, he took a deep breath, then gave Master Liu a positive look, and then began to perform.
Master Liu's performance was decent, and some of his expressions were not very accurate, but fortunately, it was relatively smooth, and the two of them successfully completed the performance.
Li Shengyao did not make specific comments, Zhang Songwen felt that this round of Zhang Yi, Zhang Jiayi, and Wang Xiao performed well, and these three people were very natural.
Others are about the same.
"Well, everybody's doing well.
Now I want to ask a question, how do you resolve grief? ”
Zhang Yi thought for a while, "If I have something sad, I will find a book to read and calm down." ”
Lei Jiayin scratched his head, "My words are to eat, watch movies, and then sleep." ”
When it was Zhang Songwen's turn, he thought about it for a moment, and then said: "I am all self-explanatory, I think people should take a long-term view, and look at thirty or fifty years, then sadness is temporary, and there is no need to think about it." ”
Li Shengyao clapped his hands, "Okay, let me ask another question, if you killed your son by mistake, the pain and remorse cannot be resolved, what should you do at this time?" ”
Zhang Jiayi thought for a while, "I should kill myself." ”
Wang Xiao nodded, "It's boring to live." ”
Zhang Songwen vaguely guessed the plot of "Dalian by the Sea", and he agreed with Zhang Jiayi's statement, if he couldn't resolve the pain, then he would simply commit suicide.
He didn't say some maverick answers, he felt that this was a normal person's thinking, if he had two parents, he might not kill himself immediately, but his parents were not there, and he would never hesitate.
"Okay, thank you, that's all for today, we'll contact you in three days at the latest."
Zhang Songwen then left the Liangmahe Building with his assistant, and several of them chatted in the parking lot for a while, but everyone was busy, so they didn't have a dinner party and left.
In the afternoon of the next day, Zhang Songwen came to Shanghai to negotiate a play, and at this time, he received a call from Li Shengyao.
"Teacher Zhang, after careful consideration, we think you are the most suitable, I don't know if we can cooperate?"
Li Shengyao's voice was very calm, but to Zhang Songwen's ears, it was simply a fairy sound, and he subconsciously asked, "Director Li, why me?" ”
Yesterday's several actors were very good, and he didn't feel like he had an advantage.
"The actor we need is a sensitive, fragile, weak aura, and an actor who is relatively ordinary in both figure and appearance.
Duan Yihong, Zhang Jiayi's aura is too strong.
Lei Jiayin is tall, with a big head and small eyes.
Zhang Yi, Wang Xiao, and you, the three of you have a more suitable body shape and aura, Zhang Yi, Wang Xiao has small eyes, which is not very suitable for expressing sadness, on the whole, I chose you. ”
Zhang Songwen then hung up the phone, and the assistant looked excited, "Brother, what did Director Li say?" ”
Everyone else in the room looked over, including the producer, director, and actress who had just spoken, and they all looked at each other expectantly.
The excitement in Zhang Songwen's heart only awakened at this time, he couldn't hide his excitement, grinned, then felt his eyes moist, hurriedly wiped his tears, and then sniffed, "It's me, it's me, Director Li chose me." ”
"I'll ...... Brother, you're going to send it. ”
