Actor, too deep into the play

When Li Jia made his words clear, he was undoubtedly telling Xiang Chen not to think about Director Zhou's drama any more. In fact, after knowing that Li Jia and Director Zhou were friends, Xiang Chen already had a premonition that he had no chance.

This did hit Xiang Chen's self-confidence in this trip, but he didn't plan to leave immediately. This was an opportunity that Hua Nan managed to win for him. Chance to show yourself in front of Director Zhou.

"Still leaving?" Seeing that Xiang Chen didn't intend to give up, Li Jia sneered again, "Xiang Chen, are you overconfident?"

Xiang Chen still behaved modestly and politely, "Meeting Director Zhou is an agreement in advance, no matter what the result is, we must never break our promise."

Li Jia laughed, "You think too much, no one will take you seriously, if you leave now, Lao Zhou may not even remember you as a person when he comes back."

Xiang Chen was speechless for Li Jia, who was full of vicious words that could be satirized, but he knew that angering Li Jia again would do him no good, so he took two deep breaths and continued, "I'm a fan of Director Zhou, can I see you?" Director Zhou's side is worth it, and I would like to ask Director Li to... hold your hands high."

Li Jia laughed again, "I said Xiang Chen, if you had this attitude towards me three years ago, how can you be like this today."

Xiang Chen scolded his mother from the bottom of his heart, but his mouth was still polite, "You should be respected..."

"Okay, then you can continue to wait here." After Li Jia finished speaking, his unclear eyes wandered greedily over Xiang Chen, and then he turned and walked towards the front desk.

When the little girl at the front desk saw that it was Li Jia, she quickly led Li Jia in and asked Li Jia to wait in Director Zhou's office.

Half an hour later, there was a ding-dong sound as the door opened at the elevator entrance, and Director Zhou, wearing glasses, came out of the elevator. He was walking towards his studio while sending text messages with his mobile phone.

Seeing Director Zhou approaching, Xiang Chen quickly stood up from the sofa chair, and when Director Zhou was about to pass by him, Xiang Chen called out "Director Zhou".

Director Zhou turned his head and looked at Xiang Chen, his eyes full of doubts, Xiang Chen quickly explained the reason respectfully and calmly.

"Oh, Xiao Lai (assistant) told me that you were pushed by the media for an interview, right?" Director Zhou suddenly realized.

"Yes, Hello, Director Zhou."

Zhou An is a fat middle-aged man with thinning hair and a pair of glasses. He has a stern face and looks like a highly respected university professor.

Zhou An looked Xiang Chen up and down, felt that Xiang Chen's image met his standards, and then said lightly, "Well, follow me to the office."

Xiang Chen quickly followed Director Zhou, both excited and nervous in his heart, and also faintly uneasy when he thought of Li Jia.

The subordinate at the front desk reminded Zhou An that Li Jia came to talk about some cooperation matters and was waiting for him in the office now.

At the door of the office, Zhou An asked Xiang Chen to wait for him in the VIP lounge on the side first, and wait for him to finish talking with Li Jia about the work, and then deal with his interview.

Xiang Chen handed over his resume and the USB flash drive he brought to Director Zhou in advance, and Director Zhou asked his assistant to bring Xiang Chen a few small scripts for the interview performance later.

All are difficult non-physical performances.

An hour later, a thoughtful assistant called Xiang Chen, and Xiang Chen walked into Director Zhou's office.

Li Jiaren was still in Zhou An's office, but the two of them seemed to have finished talking about cooperation. At this time, Li Jia was sitting on the sofa not far from Director Zhou's desk, drinking tea.

"I've read your resume and the contents of your USB flash drive." Dao Zhou said, "It's still reasonable."

Zhou An asked Xiang Chen to show the script he had just read on the spot.

Because he had enough time to prepare, Xiang Chen got into the mood very quickly, and he memorized all the lines by heart. Although he was a little nervous, but fortunately, Xiang Chen had a strong mentality, so the effect of the performance was not concealed, and it was considered a normal performance.

"Old Zhou, this kid Xiang Chen is doing pretty well." Li Jia who was sitting on the sofa beside him suddenly smiled and said, "But compared to those two kids, it's still a bit worse."

The "those two children" in Li Jia's mouth refer to the other two candidates for this role.

Xiang Chen's acting skills are naturally more than enough compared to the flow school, but compared with the real strength school, there is still a gap, mainly because the bad movies in the past three years have delayed his acting skills. After all, self-study is never as good as excellent The script team and the director's hands are very strong.

"It's a bit of a gap, the expression of *** is not vivid enough, the empathy is also a bit lacking, and the lines are also a bit sloppy..."

Director Zhou sharply pointed out the performance that Xiang Chenyuan thought could pass the test. He knew that he would not be 100% satisfied with Director Zhou, but he did not expect that in the eyes of a well-informed professional director, his performance had so many deficiencies.

Xiang Chen humbly accepted Director Zhou's criticism, until Director Zhou changed the subject and said, "There is a problem but it's not a big problem. You can correct it on the spot. Xiang Chen, have you read the original film adaptation?"

"Looked."

"Then tell me your opinion on this male number two." Zhou An said slowly, "You can analyze it from any aspect."

At this time, Xiang Chen took out three pages of documents from the document bag he brought with him and put them on the desk in front of Zhou An, and said softly, "Director Zhou, this is the character I wrote for the role of the male second." junior college."

In three full pages, it clearly and neatly analyzed the male lead in the book from all aspects.

Zhou An was extremely surprised by the biography that Xiang Chen suddenly took out. He read it carefully, and could feel Xiang Chen's intentions in writing this biography. It was also in line with his wishes.

"Well, it's good." Zhou An said with a smile, "You go back first, if there is any news from my side, someone will contact you."

Xiang Chen was at a loss.

After saying goodbye to Director Zhou, Xiang Chen turned around and walked towards the door of the office. As soon as he left, he heard Li Jia behind him say to Zhou An, "Old Zhou, this Xiang Chen has a character problem..."

Xiang Chen didn't hear the words behind, and the glass door closed automatically. In this case, it's not easy for him to go back in and explain something.

Xiang Chen didn't know how Li Jia and Zhou An were friends, nor did he know Zhou An's specific personality, so he didn't know whether Li Jia's fanning the flames would affect Zhou An's decision, but compared to Li Jia's participation in it, This trip made Xiang Chen even more emotional because he saw his own shortcomings more clearly.

He is still a long way from the real strength faction.

After Xiang Chen went back, he waited for a week and did not receive any news from Director Zhou. As for the second male script that Xiang Chen liked in Hua Nan's hand, the script asked Xiang Chen to give an answer within three days, otherwise they would Talk about other actors.

Just when Xiang Chen thought that there was no hope for Director Zhou, Xiang Chen, who was taking off his make-up in the dressing room when work was over for the day, suddenly received a call from Assistant Zhou An.

On the phone, Assistant Zhou An asked Xiang Chen to go to the box of *** Hotel *** at 07:30 tomorrow night. Director Zhou will have a dinner about the new movie there tomorrow night.

Xiang Chen was so excited that he immediately thought that he had been selected. After hanging up the phone, he got up excitedly and hugged Xiao Guan beside him.
