Chapter 6 Auditions
Black suit, pure white shirt, simple and low-key gorgeous.Song Lin tried his best to appear at the award ceremony in the best condition, using thick foundation to cover the shadows under his eyes, even his manager and assistant did not realize that his mental state was not good.However, as long as those shots turned to him, he would show his fullest emotions. He didn't relax a little until the lights went out, leaning on the back of his chair and silently looking at the big screen.
At the age of 16, he became the youngest actor in China, until he turned 36 this year. For 20 years, Song Lin has not won the title of actor again.At the same time, all the films he has filmed will always receive enthusiastic responses from fans during the early stage of promotion, but time and time again they have fallen to shocking results at the box office.Just like every year at the film festival, the judges said "Your acting skills have improved again", but every year Song Lin missed the best actor.
This year, he was shortlisted for "Best Actor" again. I only hope that this time, he won't be reduced to running with him again.
But when the old actor who presented the award for "Best Actor" tore open the envelope and read the name on it aloud, Song Lin couldn't hear anything for a moment.He finally smiled again when he saw the man standing across the aisle from him calmly, straightened his back, expressed his gratitude to the friends around him, and then walked slowly onto the podium.
It's okay, it's not the first time to run with me, and I get used to it after running.
However, the last straw that broke the camel's back was not missing the actor again, but seeing with his own eyes the man he loved for his entire youth crushing on another man in the parking lot.
Thinking of those nude photos sent to his mailbox, and looking at his lover who betrayed him, Song Lin finally broke down and screamed...
"Xiaohe! What's wrong with Xiaohe?"
Shen He lay on the bed, dripping with cold sweat.The anxious voice of Shen's father and Shen's mother came from outside the door. He tried his best to move his hands, but found that the nightmare had made him exhausted.
"I'm fine..." Shen He's voice was hoarse, but at least he heard his son's voice, and the knock on the door stopped.
"It's good that it's okay, is it a nightmare, Mom will warm up the milk for you?"
"Mom, go to sleep, I'm fine."
The closed door suddenly opened, Mother Shen looked at Shen He who was leaning against the door, and nodded distressedly: "Okay, okay, let's go to sleep, the milk is in the refrigerator, if you want to drink, you can heat it yourself. Don't come down to help tomorrow, Have a good rest."
Knowing that Shen's father and Shen's mother were concerned about the physical condition of their son who had just recovered from a serious illness, Shen He didn't want to show too much effort until he heard the door of their room close, and then slid against the wall and sat on the ground.
He really didn't have much strength left.What happened on the night of the awards ceremony stimulated him every moment.Thinking of the relationship between Yan Ning and Wei Yan, and thinking that the little stars that Yan Ning praised in those years may not just be just praises, Shen He felt that he couldn't wait.
"A-Ning." Shen He leaned against the wall, raised his head, the crescent moon was reflected outside the half-open curtain, "20 years, how will you compensate me?"
Time hastily arrived in September, and the university city suddenly became lively again.Since the dormitory has not started serious access control, there are many people who are still nesting in the book bar at eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening.
Shen's mother yawned, and when she looked up, she saw Shen He pushing a small cart full of books, parked in front of a bookshelf, and a few girls approached him after a while, talking to him with smiles on their faces.Since the son came home, the family's business has improved, and it feels like it's extremely peaceful.Although she knew that her son would have to take immunosuppressants for the rest of his life, mother Shen felt more and more hopeful in life when she thought of her son's recovery.
She happily lowered her head and continued to count the accounts, not paying any attention to what Shen He was talking to those girls.
"We heard that brother, you are the original script of "Heavenly Creation", can you help us analyze this drama?" The girl was holding a few books on acting in her arms, blinking her eyes for help, and only had to write "Please" on her face. "Two words.
Shen He lowered his head and glanced at them: "Didn't read the outline of the story?"
Seeing the girls looking at each other, Shen He knew that they probably didn't read the script seriously.As long as they are not extras, ordinary small characters who have a lot of scenes can often be assigned scripts, not to mention that people like them who want to participate in auditions must have audition books.Sometimes it is not easy to digest without thinking about it by yourself, just relying on other people's analysis.
In order to be foolproof during the audition, Shen He has repeatedly chewed the script that he originally saved in the computer many times, and only then did he understand the whole story.
The girls looked at Shen He, hesitated to speak, saw that the other party turned around and continued to add new bookshelves before he could answer, and couldn't help but reached out and tugged at his clothes: "Brother, just talk about it. Because the script seems like ...a very profound feeling."
Shen He casually took a copy of "Heavenly Craftsmanship" from the shelf, and handed it to the girls: "Look at this. You don't need to finish it, just read the prologue. Get to know the protagonist a little bit, and remember the character of the protagonist." The background of the era, and then read the audition booklet to determine the identity and status of the character you want to audition, and connect the lines before and after the plot.”
This is the method he has always used to memorize his lines.But I don't know if it will have any effect on these girls who obviously want to pass the original author and give themselves more chips in the audition.
When the girls took the books, Shen He didn't stay any longer, and pushed the cart to the next bookshelf.
The story of "Heavenly Craftsmanship" has not yet been launched, and there is already a preliminary publicity. The tentative male and female protagonists are all recently popular artists, which undoubtedly has a box office guarantee.Not to mention, among this popular artist, there is a new actor Sheng Boyong. When the movie is released, his fan benefits can be said to be absolutely powerful.
If Shen He wants to return to the entertainment circle, he is destined to find a foothold.But with his current status, he absolutely can't soar into the sky. Fortunately, there is still the drama "Heavenly Works" that can be used a little bit.
Three days after school started, on Saturday, Shen He went to Jihe Film and Television to audition.
The place where the number plates are taken at the audition is crowded with people, faintly catching up with the sign-up office on the first day of school.Although the casting of the movie is not a hero or heroine, most of them have lines and opportunities to show their faces. For men and women who dream of standing in the spotlight one day with the dream of being a star, no matter how small a sparrow is, it is meat.Therefore, when Shen He was blocked outside the glass door of the audition place, looking around, he could only see countless handsome men and beauties squeezing me and squeezing you, like a nest of piglets crowded at the door waiting for the owner to open the door and let them out young.
Shen He raised his hand to block the sun, and when he turned his head, he saw several young artists who had worked with him in the past wearing sunglasses, directing his assistant to squeeze into the crowd.Shen He weighed his current body, and after thinking about it, he should stand outside obediently, and only go inside when there are fewer people with number plates.
The number plate he got was already at the very end. Looking at the number 3044, it was almost at the end.This number is not favorable, but last night, Shen He made a special call to Tang Mufeng.Although he didn't know why this old and cunning fox suddenly became so talkative, the other party repeatedly assured that he would never be selected for the roles before all the auditions were over. Shen He felt that Tang Mufeng could still be trusted for a while.
The whole audition session started at 08:30 in the morning and continued until 3000:3 in the afternoon, and finally reached number [-].In order to save time, every group of five people entered the audition scene together, and each person's time was only [-] minutes at most. Even so, the staff were exhausted.
When the number 3035 was called, Shen He obviously felt that the staff who called the number became hoarse again.This is already the third one today, and at the end of the shouting, I couldn't even utter a complete sentence except for coughing.
"No. 3040 to No. 3044 came in for an audition!"
The hoarse voice of the staff came from the loudspeaker.Shen He put down the mobile phone in his hand, got up and straightened his clothes, and followed the staff to the closed gate of the audition scene.
"Next group!"
The door was opened from the inside, and the young girl who looked like an assistant yelled at the person outside the door, then turned her head and pulled the door to watch a new group of audition men and women walk in.
When Shen He entered the door, he immediately saw three people sitting behind the table in the middle.They are all directors and producers who have worked together in the past, and there is also a screenwriter Zhao Fei who is said to be the queen screenwriter of Jike Film and Television, who is also the one who revised his script this time.A row of five stools was placed in front of the white wall facing the three of them. Under the signal of director Hong Tao, Shen He and the other five sat down first, and then auditioned one by one according to the number plate.
The girl in number 3040 happened to be the one who pestered Shen He in the book bar to ask him to analyze the plot.When she walked to the middle of the room and stood still, the girl was visibly nervous, her shoulders trembling.Producer Yu Guoqiang is an old man in the industry. Seeing her like this, he tried to comfort her softly, but he didn't have that much patience anymore.
The girl took a deep breath and started auditioning for the roles she wanted.
3 minutes for each person is actually the basic time, but if the state is not good, the later the audition is, the less patient the director and producer will be to watch those 3 minutes.The girl obviously didn't grasp the opportunity well, she walked out of the door with red eyes, and gave Shen He a pitiful look before leaving.However, Shen He didn't turn back to give her a comforting look at all, and stared at the other person who was auditioning without moving.
When No. 3044 finished the audition and went out, Shen He took a deep breath, stood up from the stool, and was about to take a step forward, when there was a loud noise outside the door, and then the door was suddenly knocked open.
He turned his head, looked towards the door, and saw a person who he didn't want to see again for a while——Wei Yan.
"Xiaowei, what are you doing?"
Hong Tao obviously knew Wei Yan too, and when he saw someone coming in, he quickly signaled his assistant to go to the door to comfort the others.
Wei Yan took off his glasses and didn't speak, but He Tian, the manager next to him, took a step forward and said with a smile, "Director Hong, it's like this, we, Wei Yan, made an announcement in the morning, and we rushed over to attend the meeting as soon as we got off the plane. Audition. Are you looking for a role?"
Hong Tao's expression was not very good-looking.Yu Guoqiang looked at Wei Yan who was standing behind He Tian, and snorted.Only the screenwriter still had a smile on his face, but there was also disdain in his eyes.
Probably because he knew their attitude, He Tian just smiled and handed out a note: "This is what Mr. Yan meant. Since several important roles have already been selected, we can also consider a smaller one. The characters, like Chen Chu in the script, and Tang Ye, can be played."
As soon as the bank card was handed out, Hong Tao's expression became even uglier. He stood up abruptly and pointed at the video camera that had been set up in a corner of the room: "Look clearly, today's audition was recorded, and everything you did just now Was recorded in. Whoever Mr. Yan likes to praise, he has only praised many people over the years, Xiaowei, you want to understand, is it relying on Mr. Yan's money or on your own?"
As soon as Hong Tao's words came out, Shen He clenched his fists suddenly.
It wasn't until the last few years that he knew that Yan Ning had been promoting some small stars, but the other party explained every time that he was just acting on the spot.It wasn't until before the accident that he realized that he trusted this man too much.Thinking about it now, the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, except for himself, I am afraid that everyone in the circle knows about Yan Ning's romantic debts.
He looked at Wei Yan who didn't care, and suddenly stood up.There was a screeching sound when the stool moved, and everyone's eyes suddenly focused on it, as if they realized that there was another person waiting for the audition in the room.
Both Hong Tao and Yu Guoqiang's expressions changed.However, the next moment, the young man suddenly spoke.
"Mr. Wei, since you are here for the audition, can you please take a number first?" Shen He took a step forward, bowed slightly to Hong Tao and the others, "Hello Director Hong, Mr. Yu, Mr. Zhao, I It's No. 3044 Shen He, and the character I want to audition for is Chen Chu."
At the age of 16, he became the youngest actor in China, until he turned 36 this year. For 20 years, Song Lin has not won the title of actor again.At the same time, all the films he has filmed will always receive enthusiastic responses from fans during the early stage of promotion, but time and time again they have fallen to shocking results at the box office.Just like every year at the film festival, the judges said "Your acting skills have improved again", but every year Song Lin missed the best actor.
