Chapter 102: An eye-opener

"Hey! Tang Dynasty! Come on in. When Donde rang the doorbell at the door of the villa, Richard Gas's voice came through the loudspeaker, and the iron door opened.

Tang De walked into the courtyard and felt a little strange, American parties are very outward, just like Jennifer's party that she attended before, the music and lights can be seen from the door, and those sexyly dressed girls can be seen everywhere.

But Richard's party this time was very quiet, there was no energetic dance music, no colorful lights, he could only see the clean lawn and the beige villa standing quietly.

When he walked into the drawing-room after being received by Richard, he thought he had come here for some elegant art appreciation, only to see several men sitting on the sofa, drinking wine and commenting on an art painting.

"Don, come, take a look." Richard, dressed in a dark suit today with a friendly smile on his face, pulled Donde to a few people.

Tang De's gaze swept slightly, and he immediately found a familiar face.

"Doug Liman? I've seen your "Spy Movie" and it's great. Tang De stretched out his hand in surprise and shook hands with the middle-aged man with long curly hair.

"Spy Shadow" was just released in June this year, although Tang De did not go to the cinema, it did not prevent him from finding some fragments from his memory.

"Hello, thanks for the compliment." Doug Liman gave a gentle thank-you sigh and looked at Richard.

Richard immediately introduced: "Don, MTV's winner this year, is also the assistant director and cinematographer of Chicago. ”

"Nice to meet you, Don."

Later, Tang De met the other people on the couch under Richard's introduction, and then he found that these people were either independent producers, or casting directors of the crew, as well as several art directors and art directors.

This made him even more confused, he didn't know what Richard was going to do, was it to discuss the formation of the crew?

So after going to the bathroom and meeting Richard, Donde asked, "Is this the party you are talking about?" ”

"Of course." Richard shrugged his shoulders and patted Don De's shoulder with a smile: "Don't worry, the main dish hasn't started yet." ”

"Okay." Since Richard said that the party hadn't started yet, maybe someone else hadn't come yet, but the word "main dish" in his mouth made Tang De have some inexplicable associations.

In the following time, Tang De sat in the living room and chatted with several Hollywood veterans, and in the process he also learned about the art paintings discussed by the previous ones.

It was a ukiyo-e style painting, from Toei.

The painting depicts the process of a large number of men and women having sex with very fine brushstrokes, which is extremely detailed, but does not appear erotic.

Tang De admits that this kind of painting is very good, but he still can't appreciate the works of Dongying style.

After another twenty minutes like this, Richard's cell phone rang suddenly.

"Oh friends, our 'party' is about to begin." Richard smiled and stretched out his arms: "Come on, let's go upstairs and get ready first." ”

"Ready?" Don raised his eyebrows, and the guest followed them up the stairs and into the largest room.

The room was empty, with pale tatami mats on the floor, a row of tables in front of the window, and seven chairs behind it, which happened to correspond to several men.

After arriving in the room, Richard took out a few masks from behind his back that could only cover half of his face: "Come, gentlemen, take a pick." ”

Tang De didn't expect this link, seeing that several other people had chosen their own masks, he also took a pair casually. It's a monkey.

After putting it on, he sat down on the leftmost chair and asked, "So what exactly is the 'party' going to do?" ”

Wearing a leopard mask, Doug Liman explained: "It's actually quite simple, we're a casting meeting. ”

"Casting meeting?" From these three words, Tang De has already noticed that there seem to be many interesting things hidden in them.

Richard, wearing a dog mask, leaned against the table and said, "That's right, the casting meeting, there will be a few girls who will run for the lead actress of our movie in a while, and we are members of the crew......"

Tang De suddenly realized, no wonder several people on the scene have different occupations, directors, producers, art directors, photographers, and Richard, the actor.

"So you're the hero, right?" The corners of Tang De's mouth curled.

"That's right, I'm the actor, and of course I have to participate in the process of choosing a partner." Richard nodded happily and continued: "This movie is very well made, in order to ensure the objectivity of the whole process, look, there is a camera over there. Don't worry, you can't shoot us. ”

Donde turned his head to see that he was pointing to the classical portrait of Venus on the wall, and his keen vision made him immediately aware of the camera lens hidden in Venus's eyes, which was facing the center of the room, avoiding the men behind the table.

"Clever, really ingenious." Don had to clap his hands and praise, he didn't expect Richard to have such a good time at this party.

"Of course, actors don't know, or even if they do, they don't care." Richard paused for a moment and sat down in the chair beside Donde: "Therefore, we are staying here as examiners now, and you can ask anything from the actors...... Any, as long as it is relevant to your work and is rated according to her performance. ”

"What if I do well and get a high score?" Donder asked.

"Maybe Doug will give her a role."

"And what if the score is low?"

"Then you will be punished."

"I see." Tang De finally understood the true meaning of this 'casting meeting'.

Richard was right, it was a real eye-opener for him, and he never imagined this kind of play before he entered Hollywood.

This is more subtle and legitimate than the red sofa set.

After all, it's a "casting meeting", isn't it?

And this is just their level of play, the directors and stars at the top of Hollywood, I can't imagine how much they can do.

After listening to Richard's explanation, everyone officially entered the 'casting meeting' process.

"Knock knock!" Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in." After the casting director shouted these two words, a white girl in a black dress walked in through the door.

She also wore a mask on her face, purple butterfly-shaped, and her two wings swayed gently with her steps, as if they were about to flutter against the backdrop of her long golden hair.

"Please introduce yourself." The casting director is serious, as if this is an extremely normal casting interview.

The girl nodded, holding her waist with one hand, and a long leg stretched out from her skirt, white and slender.

"My name is Heard." Her voice is quite seductive, with a kind of flirtatious meaning: "I am from ......"

No one knows whether the information she said is true or not, or no one cares in the first place.

It's just that Tang De touched his chin and felt that her figure and voice seemed to be a little familiar.

Hilde?

How do you feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity?

While the name was in his mind, Heard had already finished introducing herself, and the casting director closed his mouth, and the assistant director spoke: "I need to see if you are in shape, if you are suitable for this role, can you take off your coat?" ”

"Absolutely." Hilde didn't hesitate, he reached out and grabbed the ribbon behind the black skirt and slowly pulled it out.

"Wow." The black dress fell to the ground in an instant.

Tang De said "wow", and from this undisguised white body, he suddenly thought of the name of the former well-known actress.

Amber Heard, yes, that's her.

He has seen her uncut version of "London Venue", and he has also seen the movies she made when she was young, and I have to say that it is very sexy, although she is less sexually attractive in the later period.

But that's also because she learned boxing later, and because she was entangled with gender issues, her whole temperament changed.

Now she is still in her best years, like a bud waiting to be released, young and charming.

It's just that whenever he sees her swaying in front of his eyes, Don De can't help but think of her future husband, Johnny Depp.

The two of them have fought a long lawsuit because of the divorce, and they have also contributed a lot of famous scenes, such as a lump on the bed that makes countless people daunting, which directly made Amber Heard win the title of "Texas Woman".

So even though she was naked and posing in front of her eyes, Tang De still didn't have any feeling of standing up.

After all, this kind of is easy to provoke, and it is not a good thing to be entangled by her.

In the next ten minutes, Don watched Amber Heard accept various difficulties, such as flexibility tests, such as dance tests, such as singing tests.

But what opened his eyes the most was the test of acting skills and lines, one was to let her perform the shyness of a girl for the first time, and the other was to let her hold a crystal column to show her tongue skills.

Admittedly, this group of Americans can play.

After Amber Heard had gone through all the tests, the crowd began to score.

Don gave a seven, and the others also took a piece of paper and wrote out their satisfactory scores, and Amber picked up his clothes and went downstairs to wait after getting his score.

After that, a few scantily clad girls entered the room to perform, and they were still the same lively and tempting.

However, the men who are examiners maintain a serious posture, even if their legs have been raised to cover up their ugliness, they do not show any urgency.

Tang De didn't make a fool of himself, probably because he watched too many similar performances in his previous life, after all, the war of words he witnessed on the set was even more fierce than now.

It's just that filming is filming after all, and the mentality is different.

And these future female stars are not comparable to those experienced teachers, watching them shake their advantages innocently in ignorance, even he can't help but have some dry lips and teeth.

After all the auditions are over, the actress with the highest score and the actress with the lowest score are also officially released.

Amber scored the highest and received a role commitment from Doug, and the other actresses, although they failed, also received contact information from various producers.

As for the actress with the lowest score, she once again presented a striptease dance for everyone, on the pole stage in the living room.

At this time, although everyone's masks were still on their faces, the distance was closer, and a few girls could naturally see the general appearance of the men.

Compared to other people's pot-bellied poop, Tang De, an obviously young handsome guy, received the most side glances.

While everyone was enjoying the dance, Amber came to Donde's side and pulled his hand on his lap without hesitation: "Are you free at night?" ”

Tang De sighed, he didn't expect this to take the initiative to find him, although the hand felt smooth and delicate, but most of the anger in his heart disappeared when he thought of those things.

He has a habit of cleanliness.

Fortunately, just as Amber continued to get closer, a phone call interrupted her, it was Raymond.
