Chapter 599: Hot scene

The university campus in midsummer has more tranquility and less noise. The sound of cicadas echoes in the treetops. The whirring air conditioner in the library makes people drowsy. Occasionally, you can see the spacious bluestone The trivial footsteps of pedestrians passing by on the brick road quickly disappeared in the bright sunlight, and silence returned in a blink of an eye.

The University of California, Los Angeles, located in the Westwood District, is located at the foot of Beverly Hills. At the same time, it has a well-known art gathering place such as the Getty Center. Many tourists will leave their footprints here when they come to Los Angeles. But even so, there is not much noise on the campus. It seems that the hot sunshine in July has made people move to the Santa Monica beach to enjoy a rare touch of coolness.

However, walking along the main road of the campus towards the direction of the tennis court and the rugby field, but after two corners, you can see a completely different scene. The bustling crowds give people the illusion that there is no place to stay, as if tourists from the entire Westwood District have gathered here. No wonder there are not many passing vehicles on the street. The entrance of the center spread all the way to the hillside of the tennis court behind, but even so, all the space was still full.

Ellen Page looked at the grand occasion in shock, and her first reaction was that she was in the wrong place. This situation looked more like the scene of a college basketball or college hockey final, with at least 800 people Contain the scene tightly. Shaking his head, Allen walked to the end of the line in front of him, Excuse me, is there any activity going on here? I mean, is this the scene of the casting of 'Hard Candy'? Or...

I still found the wrong place. Before the last half of the sentence could be said, the little girl in front of her shouted excitedly, Yes, yes, this is here.

Immediately afterwards, a boy about 16 or 17 years old shouted happily, Lance has arrived at the scene just now! Jesus Christ! Lance really appeared! I was still skeptical before, it shouldn't be, it should be No way... But, Lance appeared! This is really Lance's new work, God! I'm going to have a heart attack!

Allen felt that she received a lot of information at once, and she was taken aback, I thought that only girls aged 16 to 18 could participate in today's audition.

Oh, of course, of course. The boy smiled without hesitation, and put his arms around another little girl next to him, I'm here with Angela. I'll see if there is a chance to go in then, even if not, It's good to take a peek outside. Haven't you heard? Lance is currently the most talented director in Hollywood, and he is the director who knows how to find new actors! If you have the opportunity to act in Lance's work, I would live on salad for a year!

Let me tell you, Lance has the ability to perform magic tricks, and the actors he directs will be reborn! More importantly, he is very keen on adopting new actors... Before Allen could speak, another little girl beside him interrupted Come in, said excitedly, and then several people exchanged glances and shouted in unison, Acting team! Afterwards, everyone laughed tacitly.

Allen was a little confused. She knew that Lance's four films so far, except for Tom Cruise, almost all did not use big-name actors. He was very keen to use those unknown actors. However, Allen didn't know that Lance still had such a reputation. Obviously, there was no news at all in remote and remote Canada.

So, where am I going to line up now? Allen asked curiously, holding the little girl at the beginning.

Oh, the team has already lined up on the mountain. The girl pointed to the small hill behind, and she could see the crowded crowd there, Someone just said that because the team is too long, they are considering transferring the team to the tennis court, but how to deal with it, I don't know.

Allen nodded, thanked him, and looked at the dense crowd in front of him again. She originally thought that there would not be many people participating in the selection today. After all, no one can be sure that this is Lance's work, and it only costs 600,000 yuan. The most important thing is that the requirements are girls within the age limit. It means that a large number of people have been directly eliminated. Therefore, Alan arrived at the scene 20 minutes ahead of the audition time to prepare today, but he saw such a situation...

Taking a deep breath, Allen took a step forward and walked towards the small slope.

Albert walked quickly to the gate, and through the glass door, he could see the endless line outside the door, and let out a long breath, Mr. Allen, there are at least a thousand people in line, It is estimated that there is no way to end the audition within a day today, what should I do? The two staff members at the door are assistants that Albert has just recruited, and with the expansion of Chaos Films, Albert now has his own fixed assistant.

Looking at the excited and somewhat anxious expressions on the faces of the two assistants, Albert muttered with a wry smile, We didn't expect it either. Including Lance, everyone in Chaos Films was caught off guard by this situation. , according to their expectation, more than 200 school-age girls can appear today, which can be called a grand occasion, after all, they have hardly carried out deliberate publicity.

Afterwards, Albert withdrew his spirit and explained, You can start letting them in now. One of you stays here to guard, boys are not allowed to enter; then one goes to the back door for a second review, People who are not of suitable age need to leave. So, the two of you hold the scale well, and leave a maximum of fifty people waiting in this hall. These are improvised strategies, Put ten people in each time, tell them, here There is a synopsis of the plot, let them read it by themselves, and prepare a performance according to their own understanding. Everyone has only 30 seconds, no need to introduce themselves, just perform directly.

The amount of information received by the two assistants was too much, and they were a little dazed for a while. Albert had to adjust his breathing and repeated the requirements again. After they were sure they understood, he said, Yes, you can Take your seat, I will now open the door and announce the audition.

Pushing open the door, a heat wave hits the face, and the sweat on the back soon drenched the shirt. Albert could clearly feel countless eyes falling on him. He puffed up his chest and said loudly, The audition From now on, everyone enters in order and prepares in advance. Finally, I wish everyone good luck!

Woo! cheers and whistles rang out one after another, and some people even jumped up excitedly. It seemed that the audition was not the Hard Candy costing 600,000 yuan, but the Superman Returns costing 300 million U.S. dollars. .

Albert stayed and assisted the first batch of actors who entered the audition to get ready, let the two assistants enter the state smoothly, and then left the art center and walked outside again. Since there are really too many people auditioning today, and there are still people rushing over, they are not sure whether they can finish before the sun goes down, so they have to make second-hand preparations—what should they do if the audition is postponed to tomorrow?

Lining up under the sun, Allen originally thought it would be a torment, but it was not the case. The people who came to audition were divided into two groups, one was young people with dreams of being an actor, and the other was adored by Lance. of young people, a large proportion of them have both. This allowed Alan to share many common topics with the people around him during the queuing process, from Lance's sinful trilogy to The Day After Tomorrow, from Lance's works to other directors' works, the topics were endless, when Alan When the team had already arrived at the gate, she was still unfulfilled, and did not realize the passage of time at all.

Looking up at the hall inside the glass door, the tension of the audition hit her face. Allen suddenly realized that less than three hours had passed, and it was her turn in a blink of an eye. The audition, which was impossible to complete while going down the mountain, was approaching the second half before five o'clock. Allen looked back, and the team behind her was still like a snake formation. There were at least two hundred people, but It's no longer an impossible task, so... did the auditions go so fast?

Imagine that nearly 1,200 actors completed the audition within four or five hours. The high elimination rate and the speed of completion are simply staggering. what does that mean? It means that the requirements and standards of the crew have been raised very high.

Thinking of this, Allen bit his lower lip, and asked the person who had just finished the audition but was still lingering at the door, Excuse me, why did the audition go so fast?

Everyone only has 30 seconds, and most people are interrupted in less than 10 seconds. The young girl's face was full of frustration, God, the whole pace is too fast, I just feel like going in Afterwards, the heartbeat didn’t even calm down, and the audition was over.” She looked back at the noise inside the glass door, “Lance is really strict, he seems to be able to see through you at a glance, I... I don’t I know. The girl's words seemed a little messy, and she was still organizing her thoughts, But, I think I still have something to gain, and I need to settle down.

While talking, the staff in front of me was already opening the glass door, The next batch of ten people, please come in, boys stop at the door.

Good luck! The girl gave Allen a thumbs up, showing a tired smile.

Pick one out of 1,200 people. Allen could clearly feel the sound of her heart hitting her chest. She was nervous, but more excited, uncontrollable excited. She clenched her fist, jumped twice on the spot, and then walked quickly into the glass door.
