Pick up a general at the door of the crew

"Sorry." Assistant Lin probably expected Wei Zhonghou's reaction. He skillfully took a pair of earplugs from the door, and took a deep breath before entering a small room next door.After 2 minutes of the ear-torturing rock music, it finally came to an end.

Just as Ji Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, he heard a mess of piano sounds.

——It’s scary, you’d better play rock and roll music to fuck me.

Assistant Lin came out and gestured to the two people, signaling them to go in directly.

Although Wei Zhonghou also found this irregular ding-dong sound annoying, but it was much better than the previous crackling, so he put down his hand covering Ji Zhou's ears.

I saw Ji Zhou's expression of not being able to bear to look directly at him.

"what happened?"

"...It's okay." Ji Zhou smiled, "Let's go there."

At first, Ji Zhou thought that this small room was a simple lounge, but when he got closer, he realized that the layout inside was no smaller than the office in front where he could do somersaults continuously.There are giant stereos installed in the corners of the surrounding rooms. The room is spacious and not decorated much, only a sandbag is hung in the middle, and Saipan is playing the piano with headphones near the innermost place.

Eyes closed, quite absorbed.

Ji Zhou subconsciously glanced at Assistant Lin, originally only admiring his excellent ability, but now he suddenly felt sorry for him having such a boss.However, Assistant Lin was standing next to Saipan, and only knocked on the piano when Saipan didn't know where he was playing.

After Saipan took an obvious deep breath, he opened his eyes, and his eyes met Wei Zhonghou accurately.

Then the eyes widened, the corners of the mouth began to grin, and he stood up abruptly——

Almost tripped over the stool.

However, this did not stop his footsteps, and he started shouting after five meters away: "Wei!"

"Get lost." Wei Zhonghou took a step back, not forgetting to get Ji Zhou involved.

"I'm inspired now!" Wei Zhonghou's indifference to him didn't last for a day or two, and Saipan didn't care at all, "I'm so excited that I can't wait to turn on the phone now. I've been thinking about it for three days and three nights since I saw you! You There are hundreds of ideas in my head for the image on the big screen! Hundreds of ideas!"

Wei Zhonghou waved his hand impatiently, Saipan's mental illness is also not a day or two, but every time he sees him, he can't restrain his urge to hit someone.

"Mr. Saipan." Assistant Lin said at the right time, "The audition time is coming soon, I should go down and get ready."

Saipan, who was so excited just now that he wanted to turn on the phone now, lost his expression, and scratched his short yellow curly hair with both hands irritably, "It's so annoying, are all the actors in this world dead? I tried it yesterday. Seventeen games! Seventeen games! Not a single surprise!"

Assistant Lin calmly said: "When you were casting the female supporting role for "The Mole", you had a total of 180 auditions."

"So I was about to collapse at the time, you know! God! I don't want to try that kind of torture again!" Saipan half bent over and covered his face, and Assistant Lin showed a similar expression to Ji Zhou and the two of them. Please forgive me' expression.

This is probably a way for Saipan to express his emotions. When he got up again, he had regained his vitality and nerves: "Ji Zhou, right? Come downstairs with me to audition, Lin, you take Wei to measure the size , Let the designer prepare the clothes as soon as possible. Forget it as soon as possible, to be perfect, I don't want him to rework."

"What's going on?" Wei Zhonghou subconsciously hooked Ji Zhou's shoulders and pulled him to his side, frowning at Saipan, "What's wrong with you?"

Just as Ji Zhou wanted to reassure him, Saipan said solemnly: "Oh no, I should be in the most normal state now."

... You still know that you are not normal?

Convincing Wei Zhonghou is still very easy for Ji Zhou, and in order to avoid Wei Zhonghou's accident due to some generation gap, Ji Zhou also persuaded Saipan to accompany Wei Zhonghou to sign the contract after his audition.

Saipan has only one request for this: "If you fail the audition, will Wei sign the contract?"

These words were merciless but did not have any lethality to Ji Zhou, he kept smiling and said: "He will sign."

"That's no problem." Saipan shrugged his shoulders and didn't care, "Let's go to the fourth floor."

Today, about six meeting rooms in the entire HAC performance hall have been vacated for Saipan auditions.For the movie, Saipan demanded every detail be refined, and even the extras had to be screened in front of him as long as they showed their faces.

Because he went directly to the nineteenth floor before, Ji Zhou didn't know that there were so many people auditioning today, there were almost a hundred people lined up on the fourth floor alone, and now there were still 10 minutes before the official audition started.Saipan got off the elevator and entered the audition hall surrounded by security guards, but Ji Zhou, who was not noticed, registered at the service staff and received a number plate.

130 II.

He exhaled lightly, put away the number plate, and looked at the people on the left and right without any trace.

Obviously, everyone may have come to audition for that role, and there are not only Asians among them, but also many middle-aged men with black and white skin, and their ages seem to be concentrated between [-] and [-].Although there are quite a few well-known seniors in the entertainment industry, most of them are unfamiliar faces.

But I also want to know that if more than 100 artists really come to audition, no matter how much they keep it secret, the news will be exposed.

This point really disappointed Ji Zhou a little, because there were so many people, the role was very nervous, and the things that he joked with Jiang Qi before, such as making friends with some seniors, might not have a chance.

Ji Zhou gave a friendly smile to the man in front of him. The man probably didn't expect him to take the initiative to say hello, so he hesitated for a while before forcing a stiff smile back.It's not that Ji Zhou pays special attention to him among so many people. After all, it may be a long time before his audition, and there are already people around, whether it's to pass the time or relieve tension, they gather together and chat with each other in a low voice.

"Hello." Ji Zhou whispered to the person in front of him, with a smile on his face, he tried to relax his body so that he didn't feel any sense of crisis.

The man was about 30 years old, his face was not outstanding, and his clothes were old but washed very clean.He was slightly hunchbacked, with his head lowered, standing at the corner of the crowd and still huddled against the wall, Ji Zhou had to bend slightly when talking to him.

When he thought he would not hear an answer, the other party moved his lips slightly.

Probably said something, but Ji Zhou didn't hear a single word.

"Sorry," Ji Zhou hesitated for a moment and asked in a lower voice, "I didn't hear clearly just now."

"I..." The man looked up at Ji Zhou carefully, then slowly lowered his head, his voice was low and hoarse as if he hadn't spoken for a long time, "...Hi."

Obviously, this person is not an actor.

Ji Zhou straightened up slightly, and rubbed his sore waist from the prolonged bowing.He was neither curious nor surprised by this person's behavior, but still smiled and said, "What's your name? My name is Ji Zhou."

"I...I know you..." Several exchanges may have made the man slightly let go of his vigilance, but his eyes were still looking at the toes of his shoes, and his voice was also very low, as if he kept it in his mouth, "I see I've seen your... drama, it's very good... very good-looking."

"Thank you." Hearing praise always makes people feel happy, and Ji Zhou is no exception. He was a little tired while bending over and talking all the time. He looked around and sat on the ground casually, with one leg arched .In this way, he can slightly raise his head and talk to the man in front of him, "I've never seen you before."

Just as the man was about to answer, he felt that such a conversation seemed impolite. He looked around carefully, and then slowly, almost as if his back was sliding down against the wall, he squatted next to Ji Zhou, with his hands around his knees .

"I'm not an actor, I came here..." His voice lowered again, "It's just because someone said they could give me a job."

Ji Zhou smiled, and it really was the same familiar trick as General Fudge.

But the performance of the person in front of him was unexpected. He said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't know that this job still needed to be taken. If... If I knew, I might not come. I, I I know I don’t have that ability, but I promised to come back before, so it’s not polite to just leave like this.”

Ji Zhou, who was still smiling, slowly restrained his smile, because he realized that the person in front of him was not trying to put on a show, but really thought so.

"It doesn't matter." Ji Zhou whispered, "Those who are truly capable will get the job."

"Ability?" These two words made the man twitch the corners of his mouth, but he was full of bitterness instead of sarcasm, "I don't have it. Me too, I'm not a useful person."

"How can you be a useful person?" Ji Zhou twitched his lips, "Others are satisfied with you, you work hard for others, live for others? Need others to prove your ability?"

He knew that every word he said would make the man's head lower in front of him, but he didn't intend to stop.

"You don't even believe in yourself, how do you expect others to say it?"

The person in front of him is like a mirror, showing Ji Zhou the time when he doubted himself countless times.A person who runs around all day and may never show his face. He has faced situations where the person in charge only throws away a few hundred dollars at will, and there are countless things like actors being dragged out as cannon fodder because they are not in the right position.

He held the hundreds of dollars he got by nodding and bowing countless times, thinking whether the path he was walking was right?He was alone at that time and had no friends, no one to encourage him, no one to persuade him.

It's all about hitting yourself and convincing yourself on your own, in an endless loop.

It took so many years to survive.

This audition was a hurdle, he either climbed up or fell down.
