Pillow people and dignitaries

When Mu Zeqiao arrived at the audition venue at 09:30, more than a dozen actors had already arrived in advance.In fact, the selection of the emperor in "Power Minister" has been screened twice, but neither the producer nor the director has taken a fancy to the actor, one is because they want to choose from a newcomer, and the other is that they require good acting skills.

Since he is a newcomer, how can he have perfect acting skills?

Directors and producers couldn't find a suitable candidate, so they lowered their casting requirements.What they want to choose is the protagonist of a TV series, and what they need is an actor who can satisfy the audience and is skilled in acting.Even if the requirements are lowered, the difficulty is still there.

The time passed quickly, and the audition had already started. When the second actor went to the audition, an assistant hurried over, and a few minutes later, a man with white hair was not in a hurry Walking over, the assistant saw that his star was still calm, and suddenly got a little angry.

"Mr. You, if you come later, it's probably over." The assistant complained softly with a cup of coffee in his hand.

"Why are you rushing? Aren't there so many people in front of you?" You Yu took the coffee from the assistant, without the slightest panic about being late, and without a trace of nervousness.His eyes swept over the auditioning actors one by one, and when he saw Mu Zeqiao, he obviously paused for a second.During this period of time, there were a lot of things about Mu Zeqiao, which caused You Yu to remember this person accidentally.

Mu Zeqiao has been practicing facial expressions in front of the mirror since Fu Junchi left the house, and practiced some little habits of emperors in novels.

He wanted to perform a complete eldest grandson Yuguan, and he wanted to play with Fu Junchi again through this audition.

There were a lot of actors who came to audition, so the director decided to have three of them together, and then let them perform one by one.

Mu Zeqiao, You Yu and a new actor entered the large room. The director and producer sat together, and several other judges were invited.

The first second you Yu entered, the director and producer immediately turned their attention to him.You Yu's appearance is one of the best in the entertainment circle, and his acting skills are not bad. The most attractive thing is his temperament. He seems to be careless about everything, but it seems that everything is easy for him.

You Yu's reputation in the entertainment industry is very extreme. Some people say that he has no airs, is very down-to-earth, and gets along like ordinary people. There are also rumors that he always plays big names, and sooner or later he will give his fame to the public. Lost.

Mu Zeqiao has been back in Yuncheng for such a long time, because he wants to make a comeback, sometimes he will look for movies made by old dramas with better acting skills. He has seen the movies You Yu acted in a few years ago.The movie You Yu filmed was not very popular, but his performance in it was very good.

Mu Zeqiao remembers the most profound scene in that movie. The character played by You Yu went to find his beloved, but saw the beloved and his ex holding hands. Joy gradually turned to despair.

He lowered his eyes and smiled again, like self-mockery, but also like irony.

Finally, he took a deep look at the sea and turned around silently.

The sound of the wind in the sea, the shaking of the camera, the retro filter of the film, and You Yu's superb acting skills perfectly present the process from joy to frustration.

The director asked them to choose a segment they were good at, and then they discussed with the producer.

You Yu's white hair is the most eye-catching among the three of them, as well as the two punk style necklaces hanging around his neck, and the small silver ring earring on his left ear, everyone in the entertainment circle would know You Yu usually dresses like this, so he probably wouldn't think that he came for an audition today.

What Mu Zeqiao chose was the scene in which Changsun Yuguan issued the imperial edict to let Zhao He go to the border, and regretted it very much.

During the audition, I didn't have any props, so I just showed off my acting skills on the spot.

......

"I told you not to let him go..." Changsun Yuguan held his forehead, his brows furrowed.

With his sleeves hanging down, Changsun Yuguan stood with his hands behind his back, his jaw raised slightly, and he looked into the distance.

There is an arrogance belonging to an emperor in the light-colored eyes, and there is also a trace of remembrance and chagrin mixed in them.His eyes gradually blurred, and he recalled in his mind the scene where the two talked freely in the Prince's Mansion.

Changsun Yuguan lowered his head and sighed, "Why don't you want to listen to me?"

He turned around and didn't look out of the window anymore, a touch of loneliness flashed through his eyes when he turned around, and no matter how seriously he looked at him afterwards, his eyes lost the emotion just now, and instead became clear.

He took two steps forward, and then looked back out of the window. This time, there was no regret or remembrance on his face, only the ambition and inviolable dignity that an emperor should have.

......

In this scene, there was no big emotional outburst, too many lines and actions, but Mu Zeqiao acted out every small movement and every small look in his eyes.

The first time Changsun Yuguan looked out of the window was because he regretted the imperial decree he made, and the second time he looked back, it meant that he had to completely hide his emotions again.Although he is a king, he is also a man.

The turning back at the end represents a lot. It is a gaze that looks down on all sentient beings from a high place, which represents his status and at the same time alludes to his character.

Even with just these few actions, it can be seen that Mu Zeqiao has mastered the role of Changsun Yuguan very well.

What You Yu chose was a scene in which the eldest grandson Yuguan played chess with a prince. In it, the eldest grandson Yuguan seemed to be approaching every step of the way, but he was actually luring the enemy over, and the last move would determine the outcome.After winning the chess game, Changsun Yuguan casually warned the prince not to be dissatisfied, otherwise he would die under the scheme of the white chess just like the black chess.

Undoubtedly, You Yu played very well, he played the aura between emperors and kings especially well, especially the carelessness, and the last few insinuating words, he didn't show the slightest bit of drama.

Mu Zeqiao watched You Yu finish the test, lowered his head and thought in his heart, what are the chances that he can pass.

You Yu...is probably a very difficult opponent.

Mu Zeqiao received a message from Fu Junchi when he left the audition venue.Fu Junchi asked him if he wanted to have dinner together, and it happened that there was a very tasty restaurant nearby.

Mu Zeqiao replied hello, it's already eleven o'clock, probably because he didn't eat much in the morning, and now he feels hungry.Fu Junchi asked him where he was, and asked him to find a lounge to sit for a meeting. It would take him about ten minutes to go there.

Fu Junchi would occasionally go over to communicate with the director about the audition location of the crew of "Power Minister", so he knew some rooms over there.He asked Muzeqiao to wait for him in the third lounge in the corridor.

Because the show hadn't started yet, there was almost no one in the lounge, so Mu Zeqiao went to get a glass of cold water, sat on the soft leather sofa, and sipped it in small sips.He checked Weibo on his phone, but his thoughts had already drifted far away.Fu Junchi, who came over suddenly in the morning, did not look like he was going to twirl the eyelashes on his face, but... like a kiss that stopped suddenly.

Without paying attention, the hand holding the paper cup used some strength, and a few drops of water spilled from the mouth of the cup, landed on his trousers, and were absorbed by the fabric, forming several small dark circles.

Muzeqiao turned around and put the water glass on the table next to him.It may be because of the hot weather today, but now his mood is inexplicably impetuous.

Before he came to the crew, he had forgotten about the morning event. After the audition, he received a message from Fu Junchi, and then he remembered Fu Junchi who had suddenly come over.The reason for his impetuousness was simply that he could not determine the meaning of Fu Junchi's action.

"Hey, I'm done with the audition, Xiao Chuyi..."

You Yu strode in. Chu Yi was his new assistant, and because the audition would be boring, he asked his assistant to sit in the waiting room first and wait for him.

Mu Zeqiao stood up and asked him, "Mr. You, are you looking for someone?"

You Yu nodded, "You can just call me You Yu, you are the only one in the lounge? Did you see Xiao Chuyi? It's my very short assistant."

Mu Zeqiao shook his head, "I didn't see it, I've been sitting here almost 10 minutes ago, why don't you give him a call?"

You Yu took out his mobile phone to call Chu Yi, when a figure rushed over.

"Mr. You, why are you here? I've been looking for you."

Chu Yi panted, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, the hair on his forehead was soaked with sweat.You Yu has the habit of drinking coffee, so before the audition, he casually said that it would be great if Chu Yi went to buy him a cup of coffee again.Then Chu Yi went out to find a coffee shop, and found one after searching for more than ten minutes. After queuing up to buy, he hurried back, but You Yu forgot what he said in passing, and thought that Chu Yi was waiting in the lounge. with.

After basking outside in the sun for so long, Chu Yi was extremely hot.There are cold water and paper cups in the lounge, Mu Zeqiao poured a glass of water and handed it to Chu Yi.

"Would you like some water?"

Chu Yi took the water glass and took a sip, "Thank you! Thank you!!"

You Yu took a sip of the coffee Chu Yi bought, and suddenly praised Mu Zeqiao.

"By the way, your acting skills are pretty good."

Mu Zeqiao was stunned for a while, it was the first time someone praised him so bluntly, he was a little embarrassed, "Your acting skills are also very good."

You Yu looked up slightly, thinking about things and said, "No wonder I heard Fu Junchi praise you before."

"Ah?" Mu Zeqiao asked him puzzled, "Are you Brother Fu's friend?"

"No, I only worked with him once. The filming of that movie was very boring, so we just chat occasionally."

You Yu lowered his head and glanced at the time, "Do we have an event this afternoon?"

Chu Yi quickly turned out the itinerary, carefully looked at today's arrangements, and then made a bitter face, feeling a little hopeless.

"It's...Mr. You, it's a magazine shoot, now... I guess I'll be late again."

You Yu took a sip of his coffee, "If you're late, be late."

Mu Zeqiao wanted to ask You Yu what Fu Junchi said, but You Yu had already turned around.

"Let's go first, do you want to have a meal nearby?"

You Yu's personality is relatively familiar, and he is used to inviting people to dinner after chatting with people he doesn't know.

"No, I'm waiting for someone."

Fu Junchi didn't know when he would be able to come over, and You Yu had to catch up with the magazine shoot in the afternoon, so he left with Chu Yi first.

Mu Zeqiao sat back on the sofa, leaned against the sofa, looked up at the ceiling, and blinked twice.

He raised his phone to his eyes and flipped through Weibo related to Fu Junchi.

It turns out that Brother Fu praised him in front of other people.

A certain name Mu Zeqiao was a little happy. He watched a lot of topics about Fu Junchi on Weibo for more than ten minutes, and then saw a Weibo video.

In the video, Fu Junchi was wearing a gray shirt, sitting with his legs folded, probably because of curiosity, Mu Zeqiao clicked on this video.

This video was released several years ago. At that time, Fu Junchi was not an actor, but a relatively popular non-professional actor. Fu Junchi's hair on the phone screen seemed to be shorter than now, and he looked easier to get along with than now.

He wears a silver ring on his hand, and he likes to touch it when he talks, as if he is touching a very precious person.

This is a clip of a funny show, the one talking to Fu Junchi is a comedian, asking some funny questions from time to time, or joking with Fu Junchi.Fu Junchi's smile is probably relatively high, and he seldom smiles, but a question asked by the comedian later made the corners of his lips slightly raised.

"I heard that you are still the boss of a company? Why did you want to make a movie at the beginning? Don't say that this is your dream when you were a child. I don't believe it. Tell the truth." The comedian joked Talking to Fu Junchi.

He probably thought of someone, so he showed a faint smile.

"I entered this entertainment industry because of one person. In fact, if he hadn't entered this industry before, I wouldn't have entered it either."

It could be said that Fu Junchi was laughing, but there was obviously no joy in his expression.Mu Zeqiao understood Fu Junchi, he could see how much bitterness was contained in the smile here.

For a moment, Mu Zeqiao felt sorry for Fu Junchi.

It turned out that Fu Junchi had always had a crush on him.

But now Fu Junchi is still alone, which means that he may just be in love secretly, maybe he and the person he likes have already missed.

Mu Zeqiao felt sour in his heart. He knew Fu Junchi's character. If Fu Junchi liked someone, he might not say anything and just wait like that.

He didn't know how long Fu Junchi would wait for the person he had a crush on, but he was sure that at least for now Fu Junchi still liked that person.

Because Mu Zeqiao would see Fu Junchi twisting the silver ring on his ring finger from time to time.

"Then why don't you go after him?"

"I can't catch up." Fu Junchi lowered his head and smiled again, his voice was much lower than the previous sentence.

Mu Zeqiao couldn't imagine how much regret was contained in these four words.

"No way!! Who would reject such an attractive man?" The comedian didn't quite believe it, his expression was a bit exaggerated, and he continued to ask: "How did you know each other?"

"We've known each other for a long time."

"That's my childhood sweetheart?"

"Ah."

"He used to be in this circle?"

"Ah."

Mu Zeqiao has known Fu Junchi since elementary school, and there are not many girls. Where did he come from childhood, but Fu Junchi can't lie about this kind of thing, plus he used to be a member of the circle...

He thought of one name after another, but none of them matched what Fu Junchi said. Didn't Fu Junchi know anyone in the entertainment industry before?Who on earth is it?

Mu Zeqiao didn't know why he just wanted to know who Fu Junchi liked, and who made Fu Junchi wait so long. If he knew this person, he would definitely find a way to help Fu Junchi...

But he doesn't seem to want to...

Retired childhood sweetheart.....

Didn't he just retreat from the circle before?As for Fu Junchi's childhood sweetheart, Fu Junchi seemed to have played well with him a long time ago.He remembered that when he went to shoot the first movie, Fu Junchi seemed to have left Yuncheng, and the movies that Fu Junchi acted in later also appeared on the screen.

The first movie he shot was only half a year after Fu Junchi's first movie, and during that half year, he didn't seem to have seen Fu Junchi.

Fu Junchi entered the entertainment industry because of his sweetheart, and he once told Fu Junchi that his dream is...

Mu Zeqiao didn't dare to think about it anymore. What happened in the past few months, Fu Junchi helped him time and time again, was it just because they were friends since they were young?

He suddenly didn't believe it.

Mu Zeqiao found the statement in Fu Junchi's Weibo, and he saw the first sentence in the statement again.

"...we're supposed to be pretty good friends."

Fu Junchi's logic is clear, why did he add a "should" to this sentence?

And why is it "should" be considered a good friend?

Mu Zeqiao lowered his head, the sadness came too fast, and he couldn't suppress it.

After a while, he clicked on the clip of the funny show again, stood up and walked to the window of the lounge.

"Jojo."

Fu Junchi's voice came from the door, Mu Zeqiao's footsteps stopped for an instant, his whole body seemed to be frozen there, and the phone slipped from his palm.

Fu Junchi noticed something was wrong with Mu Zeqiao, he took two steps forward, and suddenly his own voice came from the phone that fell on the ground.

"...Actually, if he hadn't entered this circle before, I wouldn't have entered either."

Mu Zeqiao picked up the phone in a panic. The tempered film pasted on the screen had been torn apart. He quickly exited the video and looked up at Fu Junchi cautiously.

Fu Junchi was looking at him at the same time.

Mu Zeqiao didn't know what to say, he forced a smile and walked out anxiously.

"Brother Fu, let's go eat."

But Fu Jun didn't want him to leave this room for a long time, because he didn't know where Mu Zeqiao would go and who he would meet again.

Mu Zeqiao was stopped at the door by Fu Junchi, and he got closer. Fu Junchi noticed that Mu Zeqiao's eyes were flushed, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

He resisted the urge to hold Mu Zeqiao in his arms and asked, "Got it?"

Mu Zeqiao turned his eyes away and didn't answer. After a while, he smiled at Fu Junchi with ease.

"Let's go eat first, didn't you say..."

Fu Junchi interrupted Mu Zeqiao with a stronger tone than usual, "Don't you know?"

He said stubbornly, "I like you, Jojo."

This confession, more than five years late, has arrived.
