The action of the media is fast.

One moment he might still be at the scene, but the next moment the press release about Shen He has already been "slapped" written out from under his hands and sent directly to China, together with the photos he saw at the closing ceremony.

Therefore, when these photos were sent back to China, it was no surprise that there was an uproar.

Almost no one paid attention to who won the best actor and best director award at this year's Venice International Film Festival.All eyes were on the change of roles in "The Best Actor".

Blu-ray Film and Television was so shocked by Shen He's sudden revelation that it was too late to react, and the office phone was almost ringing off the hook.Unfortunately, the boss of Blu-ray just returned to China, looking at the office that was busy with the phone, his face was a little ugly.

Although he is quite satisfied with the appearance of this actor named Liao Xudong, if he has a clear eye to see the economic benefits that the other party can bring, it is not as good as Mr. Yan said. As a businessman, of course he will not agree to let the crew replace the actor.

"Why don't we just audition again?" The secretary was at the side offering advice, "It doesn't matter if you change it or not, since the media already know about it, they will only be embellished and scribbled, so we should invite the media to participate in the audition together. No matter what the outcome is, it’s easy to talk about.”

Thinking that the secretary's plan is good, the boss nodded, and asked the people below to call the crew, and by the way, list the media that need to be invited to the audition.

When the audition date was just set, Shen He was still in Venice, attending the celebration banquet of the film "Sunset" crew, until Meng Zhang received a call from Hong Tao to confirm the audition date.Only then did he board the plane back to China with Sheng Boyong.

The place where the audition took place was directly the meeting room of the hotel where the crew of "The Best Actor" is currently staying.

After getting out of the car, Shen He found that there were many acquaintances who came to the hotel today—or rather, there were many familiar faces.Probably to show a fair relationship, as soon as the news of the audition spread, the crew accepted the audition requests of several other actors under Blu-ray's instruction.It's just that when these actors stand together, they look like they are playing to find differences.

——It’s all the faces that came out from under the scalpel.

Although Sheng Boyong was not in the audition time, he was still by Shen He's side.The two walked side by side, whispering something from time to time, and the media passing by saw them greet each other, and the latter raised his head and smiled slightly, looking confident.

Familiar media members were already waiting in the newly furnished meeting room. When they saw Shen He and the others coming in, they quickly stood up to say hello.However, Shen He seemed to be attracted by something, looked back, and said with a smile: "Oh, the poster was just hung up, and I used yours."

A promotional poster hanging on the wall of the meeting room is the one that Shen He co-produced when the film was first launched.

On the horizontal version of the poster, Shen He was wearing a black shirt, which made his skin white as snow, sitting on a high stool, with one foot on the next step.There was another person sitting on the steps, who was set as the opponent in the script, Sheng Boyong who added a lot of ink in the later stage.On the other side of Shen He, sitting and talking quietly, her makeup was beautiful. Although she was wearing a skirt of the same color, she didn't look old.The expressions of the three people are different.Shen He smiled, Sheng Boyong was expressionless, and Tan Jing was thoughtful...

Because of the consideration of the real environment, everyone's names were changed during the official filming of the script.External publicity is still based on Song Lin as the prototype.

Looking at Shen He's Song Lin in the part that has been filmed so far, it is difficult for Hong Tao to let go of such a good actor who seems to be Song Lin's rebirth.So much so that during the audition today, he had someone print out the poster and hang it in the conference room.

——I don't know if I wanted to show it to the actors who came to audition, or I deliberately posted it to Representative Luo and various media.

Shen He thanked Hong Tao for his affection, and he would not give up the movie easily.When the other actors entered the meeting room one after another, they saw Shen He and Sheng Boyong who were sitting on the side early, and they couldn't help being stunned. Then, under the gaze of the latter, they saw the huge poster hanging on the wall.

Many actors didn't care whether they were going to study with the prince during today's audition. Before leaving, even before going to the conference room, they were still watching Song Lin's movies and TV shows over and over again, fast forwarding and rewinding, studying his expression and posture over and over again... ...But when we arrived at the scene, seeing Shen He on the poster, the confidence that had just gotten up suddenly poured out another basin of water and extinguished it.

This feeling... is really a little subtle.

Obviously the new audition has not yet started, just judging from the promotional posters, everyone seems to have quit in their hearts-probably they are still inferior to Shen He.

Thinking of this, some people are inevitably discouraged.The meeting room that had just been closed was opened again from the outside.Some actors turned their heads to look, and when they saw the people coming in, they were all a little dazed.

"Is it Wei Yan?"

"No way? Didn't you say you're still in the detention center?"

"But they look very similar. You didn't see his eyes and nose..."

"Please, he has plastic surgery, okay? This person looks more like Song Lin than Wei Yan."

Liao Xudong entered the meeting room, staring at the posters on the wall in a daze, and when he looked away, he met Shen He's scrutinizing gaze without any surprise. He nodded slightly, and turned around to say a few words to the manager who followed behind him. , and then walked to the seat and sat down.

The agent who followed Liao Xudong did not close the door right away. There were still actors and agents in the corridor who hadn't entered, and there was a commotion all of a sudden.Hearing the movement, Shen He raised his head and looked at the door. Sun Yao walked in carefully supported by his assistant and manager from left to right.

After returning from Venice, Shen He went to the hospital to visit Sun Yao.The latter was out of danger, but was still ordered by the doctor to stay on the hospital bed and not to wander around.Even so, after learning from Xu Xiaokun that Shen He's role would be replaced by someone else, and getting Shen He's confirmation, Sun Yao immediately said that he would also be there on the day of the audition to take a look.

Looking at it now, neither the doctor's orders nor Xu Xiaokun's obstruction at that time were successful.With his pale and haggard face, Sun Yao appeared in the conference room unsteadily in loose clothes.

The media went into an uproar.

I wanted to gather around for an interview, but was blocked by the security guards, so I had to ask questions through the human wall.

"May I ask how your body is recovering?"

"When the explosion happened, what prompted you to rush to protect Shen He?"

Sun Yao's manager made a gesture to block the approaching camera, but Sun Yao stopped him, facing the camera, showing a pale and decent smile: "Thank you for your concern for me, I am currently in a state of recovery, after a while Skin grafting will be performed." His injuries are mainly on the back, and there are many places where the skin is damaged on the back of the neck. Compared with replacing Shen He, Sun Yao feels that he should be the actor to be replaced.

After all, judging from his current physical recovery, it will be difficult to stand in front of the lighting camera again within half a year.

After only two words, cold sweat began to break out on Sun Yao's forehead.Xu Xiaokun hurriedly begged the media to let him go, let Sun Yao sit down first, and interview again when he has a chance.

The media didn't dare to be too aggressive. After Sun Yao was seated, they still went to take two photos of him from time to time.

Hong Tao glanced at the situation in the conference room, and lowered his voice to say something to the assistant director next to him. The assistant director nodded and raised his voice politely: "Please sit down, everyone, our audition will start soon."

It is not a formal audition meeting, and there is no need to introduce the main creative members of Blu-ray Film and Television and the crew to the media.Auditions will begin directly under the auspices of the assistant director.

Hong Tao originally planned to play a video that he had someone edit overnight, but when he saw these young actors who came to audition, he suddenly sighed, skipped the video stage directly, and asked people to come forward one by one to perform in sequence.

Every actor who participated in the second audition submitted a still photo of himself beforehand.Shen He sat behind Hong Tao, and on the table in front of him were photos of these competitors. Each photo had its own characteristics, but if he lost to himself in the first audition, he still couldn't win the second time.He raised his eyes and looked at the subconsciously raised chin of an actor when he spoke, and the unconscious ending, and couldn't help turning his face away.

Song Lin like this would probably be beaten to death by the "Antelopes".

He turned his head and looked at Liao Xudong, who was sitting among the audition actors at the back.

Looking at Wei Yan, whom he saw again not long ago, Shen He narrowed his eyes slightly.

There was no sign from Yan Ning that he would pull Wei Yan out of the detention center.Of course, it may also be because he felt that the limelight was too much and he could do it, so he spent some money to bring him out.

But for what?

"Next, Liao Xudong."

The assistant director flipped through one page of resume, casually read the name on the next page, glanced at the photo, and was slightly taken aback.

There are many actors who want to compete for the role of Song Lin by relying on similar looks, from the first audition.The assistant director had also seen this photo of Liao Xudong in Representative Luo's hands, but when he saw the real person, he suddenly thought it was Song Lin who had returned.

When Liao Xudong walked up to the camera and posed a few poses that Song Lin used in the script according to the assistant director's request, Shen He obviously heard many people in the invited media asking about Liao Xudong's background.And after Liao Xudong finished a scene, the discussion became louder.The entire meeting room was divided into several pieces at once.

A media group was discussing whether Liao Xudong was Wei Yan.

A group of actors tried to ask each other which brokerage company this person was a newcomer to.

The remaining piece is Hong Tao, Shen He and the others.

Only here, no one spoke in silence, let alone comment on Liao Xudong's acting skills.

Seeing Liao Xudong bow and step down, Shen He lowered his eyes slightly.

When Wei Yan came out this time, he seemed to be a completely different person.The past domineering personality has completely subsided, and with plastic surgery, it is no wonder that the media will hesitate about this person's identity.

"Shen He."

"Director Hong."

Holding the pen, Hong Tao tapped the table with his nose: "It's your turn."
