Chapter 7 Auditions

Wei Yan's face was not very good-looking.He also just recognized who this young man who suddenly stood up to speak was.Mr. Yan was hospitalized last month, and it was the guy in the next bed who spoke suddenly, which made him leave the hospital in disgrace, and was severely scolded by Yan Ning on the phone.Now that he's making another move, it's as if new and old grudges have accumulated all at once.

He gritted his teeth, and under Hong Tao's cold treatment, he took the audition booklet and walked to the side and sat down unwillingly, staring straight at the young man.Wei Yan has not debuted for a few years, and has always been a frequent visitor to small commercials and TV dramas. This year, he just started to take on the leading role in the drama, which can be regarded as finally getting some resources from Yan Ning.But these resources are enough for him to look down on a newcomer whose name he has never heard of.

He looked at Shen He and snorted coldly.

Hearing this cold snort, Yu Guoqiang gave Wei Yan a cold look, turned his head to Shen He and said, "Although the character Chen Chu is a small character, he runs through the whole play and is always by the protagonist's side. He is his assistant. This role competes with Shen He." Big, why would you want to audition for this?"

"Because I didn't have the chance to audition for the lead role."

Shen He's answer was somewhat unexpected.Hong Tao was stunned for a moment, Yu Guoqiang laughed directly, but Concubine Zhao kept her eyes on him, thoughtful.

Shen He didn't care what other people thought, and still looked directly at the three of them.Even Wei Yan's sneer from behind was ignored.

There was nothing funny about what he said, Hong Tao and Yu Guoqiang soon became serious, and nodded, indicating that he could start the audition.

Shen He nodded, and suddenly made a movement of lifting the hem of his clothes, then knelt down on his knees, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were slightly red, and he shouted in a hoarse voice: "Master...".

Yu Guoqiang's eyes changed instantly, his back straightened and he leaned forward, staring at the young man motionlessly.Hong Tao noticed his reaction and looked at him in astonishment, but heard Concubine Zhao whispered beside him: "It was the scene where Song Yingxing lost his name to Sun Shan twice in a row, gave up his thoughts, and planned to go back to his hometown to take care of his mother, and Chen Chu knelt down to persuade him." play."

Concubine Zhao knew every scene in the script better than anyone else, she looked at Shen He who was kneeling on the ground indifferently, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said softly: "It really is a good scene."

In the audition book, each role to be selected has 2-3 scenes that can be selected by the person to audition.Most of the young people who auditioned for Chen Chu chose the escape scene that best reflects the love between master and servant, but this Shen He chose this scene.

Hearing Concubine Zhao's words, Hong Tao and Yu Guoqiang immediately remembered.

In the script, although Chen Chu is an original character that did not exist in history, he is an indispensable book boy around Song Yingxing.Since Chen Chu was very young, he has been running around with Song Yingxing, and he is like a family member to Song Yingxing.This scene is an important scene where a book boy like his younger brother knelt down and begged himself not to give up the imperial examination.It was a turning point in Song Yingxing's life.

Hong Tao couldn't help but clenched his fists, staring closely at Shen He's movements, for fear of missing something.

In the next second, the school boy kneeling on the ground with red eyes finally clenched his fists, his eyes full of unwillingness: "My lord, I am familiar with the scriptures and history as well as hundreds of schools of thought, and have read a lot of books. Give up like this!"

Concubine Zhao stared at the other party without blinking, and the hand holding the pen slowed down the movement of the table, only to feel that the young man opposite had a bewildering familiarity.

The camera is still silently recording all the movements at the audition scene.

Wei Yan was sitting next to him. Although he could only look at the newcomer from the side, he couldn't look away, and was nailed in place by the opponent's actions.

Shen He clenched his fists, as if he had gone through a lot of struggle, as if he had heard some explanation, he slowly closed his eyes, and made a bitter smile that made it impossible to judge: "My lord... you know everything about astronomy and geography. Are you really willing to let your talents be buried?" When he said this, his clenched hands were trembling slightly.Wei Yan opened his mouth subconsciously, wanting to call out a person's name, but suddenly regained his senses.

And Shen He, at this time, suddenly stood up from the ground, with a face full of panic, and shouted: "I will go wherever the young master goes! I am the young master's book boy, no matter how good this capital is, without the young master, I will never stay !"

When he was talking, his eyes kept looking at Hong Tao, as if he regarded him as the imaginary Song Yingxing.Seeing the sudden change in his gaze at this moment, Hong Tao almost didn't realize it. He lowered his head and quickly flipped through the audition booklet at hand, and found the scene that Shen He was performing.

After Chen Chu yelled this line, Song Yingxing's line followed: "But I have decided not to take the imperial examination, and return to my hometown to serve my mother wholeheartedly. What's the point of you following me like this?"

After blurting out the lines, Hong Tao looked at Concubine Zhao in surprise, she was looking at Shen He with piercing eyes, as if she had discovered some treasure.

Shen He was obviously not affected by the sudden addition of his acting partner.Looking away from Hong Tao quickly, Shen He met Concubine Zhao's eyes, with an anxious expression on his face, as if he was afraid that the other party would misunderstand: "Whether the young master continues the imperial examination or returns to his hometown to farm, the young master is the young master, and Chen Chu will serve you all his life. "

The next line is Song Yingxing comforting Chen Chu, and explaining his specific plans after returning to his hometown to the book boy.Neither Hong Tao nor Concubine Zhao gave any more lines at this time.However, Shen He's expression still changed according to the changes in the plot.

His eyes suddenly lit up, and he was full of smiles, very happy: "I'll go back with the young master! Since the young master wants to go back to teach the county, I'll follow along!"

As soon as the words fell, his expression suddenly restrained, and the childish smile before that disappeared without a trace.

"It really looks like...it really looks like..."

Yu Guoqiang looked at Shen He who stood up again, and murmured.He quickly looked down at the profile in his hand.

In fact, before the audition, the secretary of Jihe Film and Television Tang Mufeng greeted them specially, hoping to take care of the audition contestant No. 3044.Because among the thousands of people who auditioned, there were never many people who came through the back door to ask for attention, so they didn't pay much attention to this number 3044, but now seeing the performance right in front of them, Yu Guoqiang suddenly felt that this person would It is the newcomer actor that Tang Mufeng and the others plan to support recently.

"Film Academy majoring in drama, film, television and literature... Are you a screenwriter?" Hong Tao first discovered the doubts on the resume, and looked up at Shen He, who looked exactly the same as the photo on the resume.In the photo, he looks younger and paler, but his demeanor is more stable, like a completely independent individual.

Hong Tao glanced at Concubine Zhao: "Mr. Zhao, this child is your junior."

Concubine Zhao didn't speak immediately, but after reading Shen He's resume, she suddenly said: "It's timed out, the next group." She turned her head and looked at Wei Yan, "Mr. it's over."

Concubine Zhao's words came out a bit abruptly, but Hong Tao glanced at the time and found that it had indeed exceeded the original 3 minutes per person, so he hurriedly asked his assistant to take Shen He out.

Watching people walk out of the room, Wei Yan almost crushed the audition booklet in his hand into a roll of waste paper.

This person named Shen He, before today, apart from meeting him once in the hospital, he had no idea that there was such a number one person in the circle.But the superb acting skills just now, as well as the eyes and movements when speaking, all look very much like that person.

After Song Lin's accident, the company worked hard to make him the second Song Lin, hoping to use this method to make him gain a firm foothold in the circle as quickly as possible.But where did this monster come from, Shen He? If such acting skills can really be shown on the big screen, those newcomers who have just debuted are likely to be replaced by him.

The more Wei Yan thought about it, the more frightened he became, and suddenly he heard Concubine Zhao talking to Hong Tao and Yu Guoqiang.

"This young man named Shen He is really a newcomer. When you look at your resume, you don't even have a campus stage performance experience listed. He is still a student majoring in drama, film, television and literature. This acting skill seems to be born."

Hong Tao was obviously very satisfied with Shen He, looking at the young man's face in the photo, he kept clicking his tongue.

Yu Guoqiang's reaction was similar: "Don't you think this little Shen looks like a person?"

"Like who?"

"Like Song Lin."

Hearing Yu Guoqiang's words, Hong Tao was obviously a little surprised.After all, to the people in the circle, Song Lin is the honorary film king and the king of underappreciated talents, but everyone knows that he has been treated strangely during the 16 years of hard work from the age of 36 to 20, and many people are unwilling to be accepted. People say they are like Song Lin because they are afraid that Song Lin's bad luck will follow.

"That Shen He, haven't you noticed his name?"

Concubine Zhao's voice sounded the calmest, but the brilliance in her eyes revealed her mood at this moment.In her current state, she didn't tell Hong Tao to stay calm when the next group came in.

"The original script of "Tiangong" is called Shen He, a student of Yancheng Film Academy majoring in drama, film, television and literature."

Hong Tao's jaw was about to drop, and Yu Guoqiang reacted the fastest. After passing through the next few auditions quickly, he was about to call Tang Mufeng.Wei Yan stood up abruptly.

"I think, Director Hong, it's our Wei Yan's turn now?" Wei Yan's manager, He Tian, ​​said in a timely manner.

Finally remembering that there was an unsightly person sitting next to him, Yu Guoqiang's face immediately turned a little bit bad.Concubine Zhao lowered her eyes, tapping the pen on the table intentionally or unintentionally.Hong Tao, who was the only one left, had to cough twice, and made a statement: "That's fine. Xiaowei, what do you want to audition for?"

Wei Yan smiled, walked to the middle and stood still: "I originally wanted to audition for Tang Ye, but now I have changed my mind. I want to try Chen Chu."

When Shen He walked out of the audition scene, the people waiting outside the door all looked anxious, for fear that the role would be snatched away just like that.Seeing him coming out, a man full of acne grabbed Shen He: "Hey, which role are you trying?"

Shen He pulled his hand away calmly: "Chen Chu."

The man's eyes widened: "Such a good-looking audition for a little book boy? It's too bad, I'm out of play, do I really need plastic surgery!"

Shen He ignored him, and walked towards the gate with the corner of his mouth raised.It was almost four o'clock at this time, and there was a flow of people who got off work early on the street. He walked out of the building and stood on the side of the road waving to stop the car.

A Ferrari suddenly stopped beside it.

The car window was rolled down, and a head poked out from inside, with a smirk on his face, and a pair of big black sunglasses: "Student Shen, do you want to go home? Shall I give you a ride?"

Through the car window, Shen He glanced at the roses on the back seat, turned his head and walked away: "Thank you, Manager Tang, for not preventing you from going on a date." After walking two steps forward, he suddenly turned his head, "If it is For the first date, Manager Tang should put away the things in the back seat first, otherwise it will scare others."

After he finished speaking, he stopped a taxi.Tang Mufeng closed his mouth until the crowd in front spewed out a pipe of smoke and ran away, and quickly turned his head to look at the back seat of the car - there was a small bag thrown with the roses, probably because he didn't pay attention when driving. All the contents inside were dumped on the cushion, it was an unopened box of TT and a small bottle of the same unopened lubricant.

While Tang Mufeng was in a hurry to put away the adult products, Shen He on the other side leaned on the passenger seat and took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose.
