CP is forcing me to have a wife, and the male protagonist asked me who he is

Chapter 279: Director, drunken rants, special audition

"What did you say? Who asked me to audition?"

Xie Zhuxin also raised his head suddenly and looked at his manager in shock.

Wu Yinan said word by word.

"Director Chen Kexing invites you to audition for his new movie."

Chen Kexing?

Is he the great director who is known as the machine to create movie kings and movie queens, with countless big-name stars vying to star in his films?

Seeing Xie Zhuxin's expression of excitement and disbelief, Wu Yinan smiled and nodded vigorously.

Of course she understands how her artist is feeling at the moment.

Because they had chatted about this topic shortly after the two officially signed the agency contract.

At that time, Xie Zhuxin was not popular yet. She had just auditioned for a TV series and was rejected on the spot.

That night, she took Wu Yinan to a barbecue stall on the street and drank some wine.

Before long, both of them were half drunk.

"If you have the opportunity to make a movie in the future, among the three major film directors in China, Kong Meng, Zeng Kai, and Chen Kexing, who would you most like to work with?"

Wu Yinan remembered that while eating grilled chicken wings, she asked Xie Zhuxin such a drunken question.

At that time, Xie Zhuxin was so drunk that her face was flushed and she couldn't speak clearly.

But after thinking carefully for a long time, he gave a carefully considered answer.

"...Chen Kexing."

Wu Yinan remembered that her first reaction at that time was to laugh.

"What actor wouldn't want to work with him? But you have to become a big name first!"

Yes, among the three major film directors in China, if we were to talk about who the actors most want to work with, perhaps more than half would choose Chen Hak-hang.

It’s not that other great directors didn’t do well.

But his shooting style is more friendly to actors.

Director Kong Meng has won numerous directing awards for his 30-year directing career with many classic works, and has firmly established himself as the top three domestic film directors.

So Chen Kexing is indeed inferior in personal director awards.

But his most well-known label in the industry is that he can photograph actors.

No matter how incompetent a star is in acting, in his hands, he can discover his unique charm that cannot be seen in other works.

Moreover, after winning almost all international awards, director Kong Meng only transitioned to making commercial films halfway.

Chen Kexing is not so dedicated to purely literary films.

He began to embrace commercial films very early and cooperated with famous stars.

Therefore, the balance between art and business is more comfortable.

In the film industry, he is also famous for being a good dancer and having a wide range of friends.

Therefore, even among the three major film directors in China, he can only be the last one.

Many people even do not recognize his status as one of the top three directors, and always like to replace him with another director who specializes in independent literary films.

But in the eyes of big-name stars in the film industry, Chen Kexing has always been the most popular director.

none of them.

The box office won’t be too bad, the artistic standards are guaranteed, and the personal screen image will also have a breakthrough——

In a word, perfect!

The only drawback is that Chen Kexing rarely uses newcomers.

In his movies, even small roles with a little bit of performance will be snatched up by all kinds of big and small stars, veteran actors, and resourceful people.

Where can we find newcomers?

Wu Yinan remembered that Xie Zhuxin, who was laughed at by him, took a sip of beer, slapped the table and said something.

"What's so great about Chen Kexing? When I become famous one day, he will ask me to act in his movie! Just wait and see!"

At that time, Xie Zhuxin, who had just entered the industry, was like a newborn calf, and he still had an unbelievable energy in him.

Later, after staying in the industry for a long time, she gradually understood how difficult it was to have such an opportunity, and she never mentioned Chen Kexing again.

It seems that I have forgotten the barbecue stall that night and the drunken rant.

But looking at Xie Zhuxin's eyes at this moment, one could tell that she had never forgotten it at all!

"Congratulations, you did it!"

Wu Yinan gently hugged this girl who was becoming more and more mature but never changed her original intention.

Xie Zhuxin exhaled a long breath in her arms.

I finally felt real about this sudden good news.

But inexplicably, a trace of doubt arose in my heart.

"How did Director Chen know about me? Did he also watch "The Ming Dynasty"?"

……

"I actually watched an episode of "The Ming Dynasty" last night, the one where the silk merchant set himself on fire and died."

Chen Kexing poured some tea into his own cup with a smile, and then added a little more to Xie Zhuxin's cup.

Xie Zhuxin quickly nodded his thanks, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

She did not expect that the audition that Director Chen Kexing mentioned was not acting or reading a script.

It turned out to be just a simple meal.

This great director, who is famous for his good popularity, indeed has a natural affinity with him.

It was obviously the first time I met him, but I was still so nervous and concerned before coming.

But when they actually sat down face to face without saying a few words, Xie Zhuxin felt that she had relaxed.

However, when she heard the director mention the latest episode of "The Ming Dynasty" last night, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed again.

"The two teachers who played Shen Sanyue and Yang Yijin were so good at acting! It was also my first time to act in a drama. When I acted opposite them, I was always under great pressure..."

In last night's episode, Shen Sanyue beat drums and set himself on fire, and Yang Yijin showed his true feelings. These were the highlight scenes of these two characters.

In comparison, although the Yueniang she played also had a crying scene when she learned about Shen Sanyue's death.

But there are not many lines and limited shots, so it is definitely not as eye-catching as their two veteran actors.

After all, Xie Zhuxin knew what her acting skills were.

"No, I don't think you are inferior to them."

Chen Kexing smiled slightly.

"Of course, I'm not saying that they didn't perform well. As a TV series with this kind of historical theme, they are very suitable for such roles.

"But they are so good at acting - this is an acting style that I, as a film director, would try to avoid choosing."

Xie Zhuxin was a little dumbfounded.

"Isn't being able to act the greatest advantage of an actor?"

Chen Kexing shook his head and said something that sounded ordinary in an understatement.

"I only need you to be this character, not to act this character. The actor is only responsible for getting close to the character, and it's my business to capture it."

"boom!"

Xie Zhuxin felt as if five thunders were struck in her mind, and many of the things she had always believed in were blown to pieces by these words.

This was the first time she heard such a point of view!

A simple sentence can explain so clearly the relationship between actors and roles, actors and directors.

It was as if she had had an enlightenment, and she was a little dazed.

Seeing Xie Zhuxin's appearance, Chen Kexing quickly changed the topic.

No more talk about work, no more talk about acting.

He asked her about her previous experiences with interest.

Her childhood, her school, how she got into the industry, and her hobbies.

Xie Zhuxin answered 1510, but secretly began to beat a drum in his heart.

Are these questions that have nothing to do with acting really an audition for actors?

Could it be that he felt dissatisfied after meeting her in person, so he planned to finish the meal with a smile and politely reject her when he went back?

As the meal progressed, her heart sank deeper and deeper.

Finally it was time to say goodbye.

Director Chen still didn't say a word of affirmation.

Xie Zhuxin gave up all hope.

She stood up, smiled politely, and prepared to see the director out.

I have been silently organizing my words in my mind, thinking about how to explain to Wu Yinan when I go back.

Before leaving the house, Chen Kexing suddenly turned around with a slightly different smile on his face.

"I was wondering why Lao Zhang suddenly told me that he had a movie prospect. Shengjie also told me that he had just finished shooting a movie star. It turns out he was talking about you~"

What does it mean?

Xie Zhuxin's heart started beating wildly.

Could it be that……

"If you are free tomorrow, come and see the set. We can start talking about the script."
