Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Here, the three of us are sitting, so we don't want to hear any objections." Steven said tough words in a calm tone: "You can call me a tyrant, or you can call me a dictator. Since you are standing here, it means that you have accepted this rule."

Chen Zhao picked up the phone and said with a smile: "Don't listen to this old bastard. In fact, I am not that narrow-minded."

There may be people at the scene who believe Chen Zhao's words, but Wang He definitely doesn't believe it.

Li Changyu offended Chen Zhao on the audition set that day, and he is still lying in the hospital.

"Okay, now the audition begins." Chen Zhao said, picked up the list and took a look at it: "Please ask Mr. Banko to come up first."

When Banco heard Chen Zhao calling his name, he immediately panicked.

He was fully prepared, but after Chen Zhao sat in that position.

His whole body was in a mess, and Chen Zhao saw that Banco was a little flustered.

"Do I need to arrange it for you later? Or give you some more time to prepare." Chen Zhao asked.

Everyone could feel that Chen Zhao was taking care of Banco.

Zhou Xiaonan and others all had complicated expressions in their eyes.

If they can build a good relationship with Chen Zhao, maybe they can get Chen Zhao's care at this time.

It's a pity that such a good opportunity was missed like this.

Zhou Xiaonan was very upset, but it was too late to say anything now.

She just hopes that Chen Zhao will not make things difficult for her during the audition.

Zhou Xiaonan now wants to call Chen Ke so that she can get a favor.

But Zhou Xiaonan also offended Chen Ke that day.

He didn't save any face for Chen Ke at all.

Although this was all a misunderstanding, Chen Ke kindly took them to see Chen Zhao.

But Zhou Xiaonan scorned her face to face, and in the next few days, she didn't make a single phone call at all.

Banco collected his emotions and shook his head: "No, teacher, I'm ready."

"You don't need to call me teacher, just call me whatever you originally called me." Chen Zhao said, "We know each other, there is no need to avoid taboos."

Banco was moved, and Steven smiled and said: "Vincent was recommended by Chen. Although Chen is not a professional, he has a very good vision. You can tell by looking at Vincent's performance, so we believe in Chen's Any judgment.”

The audition staff at the scene were in an uproar. Of course they knew Vincent.

A lucky taxi driver became famous because he starred in Steven's movie.

Many people at the scene actually took Vincent as their development goal.

Now that I heard that Chen Zhao recommended and discovered Vincent, many people's eyes changed when they looked at Chen Zhao.

"Okay, please explain your identity and the role you are auditioning for."

"I am a current student at the University of Southern California Film School. I am a senior this year. I have already taken on several small roles. The role I am competing for this time is a hacker among villains."

"OK, start your performance."

Then Banco started to perform. I can't say how outstanding it was, but it was quite stable and quite satisfactory. Because he came from a major, his line skills were very good, and his appearance fit the role very well.

Chen Zhao, Steven, and Rasfa began to discuss in low voices.

"Steven, if he can't do it, you don't need to take special care of my feelings. This audition is still about you. Rasfa and I are just here to join in the fun."

"He is quite good, and his performance is above the passing mark, so he can sign this role." Steven said: "And since he has been approved by Chen, there is no reason to hesitate. This role is his."

"Young man, do you have an agent?"

"No."

"You need to take the time to find an agency and let them arrange an agent for you. This can save you a lot of trouble, especially after starring in my movie. This is the advice I give you, and then my studio The legal department will negotiate the contract with you, and you can go down."

The scene was once again in an uproar. Although the role played by Banco was not the number one or number two role, it was very bright and there were many special scenes.

After all, a movie starring a hacker can usually leave a deep impression on people.

What's more, this character is the hacker in Steven's movie.

This is a very valuable role, which makes many people look envious or jealous.

Especially those actors competing for the same role as Banco.

Several character actors began to perform on stage one after another.

But apart from Banco, only one actor managed to land a role.

"Now please list all the actors who play the number one Asian male character." Steven said.

More than a dozen people stood up at the scene, all of them actors from China, Japan and South Korea.

Zhou Xiaonan was more nervous than Wang He, Zhang Mao and Li Qingyang at the moment.

The main event is here! Originally, she didn't have high hopes for this role.

But at this moment, she began to worry about gains and losses again.

Both regret and hope.

"Chen, what do you think at first glance?"

"That, that, that...and that...they don't fit."

Chen Zhao was not a professional, he just eliminated a few based on his first sensory intuition.

Among them are Zhou Xiaonan's artists, Li Qingyang and Zhang Mao.

Zhou Xiaonan felt desperate, and Chen Zhao's revenge had indeed come.

"Why?" Steven asked.

"That actor looks a bit childish." Chen Zhao pointed at Zhang Mao and pointed at several other people: "The others are too mature."

Some actors are born with a mature face. They look the same when they are twenty and still look the same when they are forty.

It’s not that maturity is bad, it’s just that different roles have different positioning.

"Okay, for the remaining candidates, everyone will introduce themselves first, and then start to perform a piece of the script in your hands." Steven said.

Wang He took a deep breath. He felt less nervous now.

He felt that it was impossible for him to choose.

Because the person sitting there is Chen Zhao.

So he was extremely relaxed and just waited for his name to be called.

Then give your audition a perfect ending.

Soon after, Wang He came on the stage and started his own performance.

From beginning to end, the three examiners did not say the result.

After the last actor finished his performance, the three of them got together again and started discussing.

"Chen, which one of them do you think is suitable?"

"One of the Japanese actors, I feel, has been very nervous. There is another Korean actor. Did he forget his lyrics? As for the Chinese actor Wang He, I don't know if his performance is good or not. Anyway, I feel comfortable."

"Indeed, the Chinese actor did act very naturally, but is he too handsome?"
