I earn merit in the entertainment industry

Jiang Zhaonian frowned.

Zhan Haiyang's performance shows that he has made sufficient preparations in advance.

It can also be seen that this is indeed an actor with some aura.

It can be said that Zhan Haiyang's acting skills are much better than those of some of the so-called top actors who came to audition today.

But in his opinion, Zhan Haiyang's performance is still a bit too satisfactory.

He couldn't tell what was wrong, but he always felt that something was missing. He was not the young Ye Dingwu he imagined.

Jiang Zhaonian lowered his eyes, picked up the pen and made a mark on the paper.

I auditioned for two consecutive days and saw dozens of actors, but few could stay.

He had some expectations for Zhan Haiyang, whom Yi Zhiyuan recommended to him.

Now it seems that this acting skill is not bad, and I can keep it.

But he still couldn't play the role of General Ye Dingwu.

Assistant director Cui Kai, who was sitting next to Jiang Zhaonian, glanced at the mark made by Director Jiang and knew that Director Jiang wanted to keep the actor.

Cui Kai is somewhat related to Jiang Zhaonian, and he calls Jiang Zhaonian uncle at home.

Since graduating from college, he has been with Jiang Zhaonian.

It can also be said that he is a close disciple of Director Jiang.

He knew Jiang Zhaonian's thoughts clearly - my cousin was quite satisfied with Zhan Haiyang.

In his opinion, Zhan Haiyang's performance just now was indeed remarkable.

If you insist on thinking more about it yourself, and with some guidance from a good director, you can look forward to the future.

Cui Kai and Yi Zhiyuan also had dinner together several times, and were willing to look after people recommended by their senior brothers.

He spoke in a low voice and asked Jiang Zhaonian, "Do you want him to try the role of General Deng Shengli again?"

General Deng Shengli plays a larger role in this movie than General Ye Dingwu.

Jiang Zhaonian was naturally more picky when casting.

Throughout the morning, I looked at more than a dozen people, but I didn't take a fancy to any of them.

Jiang Zhaonian was a little hesitant when he heard this.

Zhan Haiyang's performance just now was not outstanding. Can he interpret the more complex character of General Deng?

The pen in hand taps on the paper.

Jiang Zhaonian looked up at Zhan Haiyang, met his eyes, and suddenly became interested.

"Okay, let's give it a try!"

Anyway, just give it a try, it doesn’t matter whether it works or not.

Cui Kai looked at Zhan Haiyang with a smile, "Xiao Zhan, are you ready for the role of General Deng Shengli?"

Zhan Haiyang nodded when he heard the words, "I understand a little bit."

When checking the information, he noticed this hero with a special name.

In the history of this parallel world, General Deng Shengli can be regarded as a legendary figure.

When he was eleven years old, Japanese pirates from neighboring countries launched a war of aggression.

His hometown, Dengjia Village, was bloodbathed by Japanese pirates, and 137 people in the village were massacred.

Only he and his younger brother Deng Weibang were left to climb out of the mountain of corpses.

In fact, Wei Bang is not his biological brother.

That day, he went up the mountain with his neighbor's brother from the same village, caught pheasants and dug out eggs, and lost track of time while having fun.

The two of them had a great harvest, and when they happily went down the mountain to go home with their prey, they saw thick smoke billowing in the direction of the village from a distance.

When we left at noon, the still peaceful village was nothing but scorched black.

At the entrance of the village, the grandmother who was holding on to the soles of her shoes and telling them not to go too far up the mountain was bayoneted and killed under a tree.

A pair of hazy eyes, staring at the sky.

Family members and blind dates all died tragically.

Deng Shengli took his younger brother from the same village and spent three days and three nights burying his relatives.

The two children, who had a bloody feud, went through many hardships and defected to the local anti-Japanese forces.

From then on, one changed his name to Deng Shengli, and the other changed his name to Deng Weibang.

He vowed to defend the motherland to the death, destroy the Japanese pirates, and successfully establish the country.

The people in Dengjia Village rely on the mountains to eat, and most of them are hunters.

The two brothers of the Deng family have been exposed to it since they were young. Later, they worked hard to practice their skills and became two sharp swords in the army.

His younger brother Deng Weibang was very good at marksmanship. He once killed 121 enemies with 106 bullets.

In a battle, Deng Weibang was unfortunately captured alive by the enemy.

The tortured and dying Deng Weibang was tied in front of the battle by the enemy and used to threaten Deng into surrendering successfully.

Deng Shengli looked at his brother with angrily eyes, choked with sobs and mouthed to himself, "I'm sorry, brother, I didn't commit suicide in a hurry."

"Brother, leave me alone and shoot."

Deng Shengli did not surrender.

He watched his brother being shot five times by the angry enemy.

Before Deng Weibang died, he tried his best and the last words he left were, "Long live the motherland, kill all the Japanese pirates!"

Deng Shengli gritted his teeth and struggled to get reinforcements.

Four days later, Deng Shengli led a death squad of 20 people into the Japanese pirate camp in the middle of the night.

They quietly slaughtered the Japanese pirate commanders and burned their granaries.

He brought back his younger brother's body which was hanging at the entrance of the Japanese pirate camp.

What Jiang Zhaonian asked Zhan Haiyang to try was the part where the enemy kidnapped his younger brother and threatened Deng Shengli to surrender.

"Go directly to the difficult ones!"

Jiang Zhaonian was in his seventies, and he already had a headache after sitting and watching the offline performance for a whole day.

The key is that some important roles have not yet been cast.

Feeling upset just thinking about it, Jiang Zhaonian unconsciously reached out and went to the cigarette case on the table to take out another cigarette, sandwiching it between them to light it.

Several other people sitting at the same table with Jiang Zhaonian relaxed their bodies and leaned back on their chairs without much hope.

Director Jiang wants to try this scene?

That’s okay, just give it a try!

Although it is indeed difficult, Director Jiang’s requirements are high.

But what if by some bad luck, Director Jiang would like Zhan Haiyang's performance?

In today's audition, there were no assistants arranged to cooperate with the acting.

Zhan Haiyang looked around and moved a chair from under the stage to the stage.

Regardless of whether he had any hope of being selected, he would just treat it as a drama addiction.

Zhan Haiyang was half squatting, with his upper body lying on the chair, using the seat surface as a defensive bunker for the trench.

He closed his eyes and thought of the land scorched black by the flames of war.

At the foot of the hillside, there are sworn Japanese pirates, tying up their seriously injured younger brother to show off their power.

He adjusted his posture.

Under the illumination of the overhead lights on the stage, half of his face was hidden in the shadows.

When he opened his eyes again, his black eyes were filled with suppressed anger.

Visible to the naked eye, all the muscles in his body were solidified.

His expression was not exaggerated, but it was obvious that his mandibular muscle was bitten hard enough to bulge a small piece.

At this time, Zhan Haiyang was like a sword about to be unsheathed.

As soon as he opened his eyes, everyone present looked stern.

The moment he saw his eyes clearly, Jiang Zhaonian felt that all the hairs on his back stood up.

He immediately sat up straight and looked at the young man on the small stage with bright eyes.
