I thought I was a jerk

Before Bai Ning's face became even uglier, it was Xue Ci who stepped forward slightly and stretched out his hand to Manager Qin: "It's me."

He paused, then calmly and naturally called out the address the other party used when introducing himself: "Hello, Lao Qin."

"..."

It would not be an exaggeration to describe the current Manager Qin as a mess.

After confirming several times that Xue Ci is indeed the artist he is about to lead, the expression on Manager Qin's face has changed several times. For some reason, he is more nervous than before. Maybe Xue Ci is really his immediate boss. The performance will not be flustered like this, just stammering "ah" or "um" to show that I heard it.

Bai Ning looked at him even more displeased, with critical eyes.

But Xue Ci didn't seem to have much opinion, and quite naturally started to discuss the next work link with the other party.Although Manager Qin is still nervous, the professionalism he has cultivated over the years seems to be hidden in his body for several years, and he naturally supports his body to react.His mind is still chaotic now, but the professional and clear terms are slowly stated without brain thinking, almost becoming an instinct.

Probably his performance in this aspect was still impeccable, Bai Ning's scorching eyes slightly faded.

Xue Ci also listened carefully to his suggestions and read the resource scripts he selected.

Young Master Xue lowered his eyelashes slightly, and carefully inspected the clauses.His reading speed is very fast, and when his slender fingertips flip over the soft and white pages, there will be a very comfortable sound of pages turning.He was completely immersed in those scripts, looking more serious as if he was studying some scientific research item, so that both Manager Qin and Bai Ning slowed down their breathing a little.

At this time, Manager Qin finally thought of one thing——

The ones he picked for Xue Ci seemed to be actors' notebooks.

There are no resources for songs!

This can't be blamed on Manager Qin. The current singer circle is in decline, and many small singers are trying their best to switch jobs to become actors, and now there is a Lin Baihua who is enjoying the food in the sky. Take the most resources and harvest the most listeners.No matter in terms of development prospects, fame and profits, singers are far better mixed than actors.

But this is not the case for Xue Ci.

How many entertainment companies with records as the main body have been tempted by Xue Ci, and it would be too violent to bury his talent.

Manager Qin should have prepared all of this, but Bai Ning didn't reveal Xue Ci's identity in advance, so now he has a splitting headache, thinking about how to explain that he didn't prepare any records or repertoires Resources - this is too unprofessional for a gold broker like him.

No wonder Xue Ci didn't respond for a long time, probably because he was very dissatisfied with the resources he chose.

Manager Qin apologized in cold sweat: "I'm sorry, I haven't had time to prepare the resources for records, right away..."

"This is the script." Broker Qin's voice was more like a whisper because of guilt, and when Xue Ci was immersed in reading, it was difficult to notice what others were saying, so Broker Qin interrupted.

However, he quickly realized what his manager seemed to have said to him just now, and asked, "I'm sorry, Lao Qin, what did you just say?"

Manager Qin's attention was diverted: "It's nothing." His eyes fell on the script, which was the movie "Hou Men" that Director Yun had already started shooting, and it could definitely be called a big production in terms of size.

The character in the script is a small supporting role in it, the appearance rate is not high, it only appears in the memories of the heroine and the villain.

The heroine is the last blood of the Hou family. After the blood relatives of the Hou family were wiped out, she put on the armor and fought for the country, becoming the sharpest knife in the hands of the emperor.The honor of the Hou family and the important responsibilities of the family and the country are forcing her to move forward all the time, and the heroine's character can definitely be regarded as devoting herself to death. It was not until the middle of the plot that she knew that the destruction of the Hou family was all due to the emperor's ambition.All loyal bones were buried for autocracy and selfish desires.

In the final plot, the heroine took over the position of the "villain" and set off a rebellion.

The results of the rebellion were not filmed.No one knows whether this is the dragon-slaying blade, or the rise of another tragedy.

In this script, the character who arranged for the audition was the heroine's younger brother, who was already dead when the story line officially started, and only took part in the heroine's nightmare and the villain's memories before death.The overall character set is the pampered, delicate and willful little Hou Ye, who died fighting for Hou Men in the end.

Although there aren't many roles, in Director Yun's production, even if it is a small [-]-line supporting role, there are some artists who want to be inlaid with gold. Even the passers-by in the movie are arranged early.The filming has already started and the production is nearing the end, and there is still one character vacant, which seems unbelievable.

Manager Qin knew a little bit of the inside story. The role of "Little Hou Ye" had already been decided, and the filming started, but the actor who played the role of Xiao Hou Ye was arrested for taking drugs, directly stepping on the bottom line of the law.Director Yun was also extremely angry, and deleted all the scenes. He was originally rushing to the release, but now he has time to reshoot.

Overall, the timing is a coincidence, and it is a very good opportunity.

The most important thing is that I heard that Director Yun is already editing and screening. As long as the filming of this episode is finished, it will be released soon. Very long short.

Manager Qin privately felt that this should be the best choice among the bunch of scripts.

Xue Ci's decision also moved him slightly.

"Why did you choose this?" Broker Qin asked, and then explained, "This is very good."

Xue Ci handed him the script, thought for a while and said, "...it's appropriate."

"Ok?"

"The role of the little duke is extravagant and capricious, very suitable for his true nature." Xue Ci said plainly.

Manager Qin: "..."

Bai Ning: "..."

What do you misunderstand about you?

Seeing their expressions, Xue Ci smiled in a daze: "I'm just kidding. I just think that if you want to play a role, it's like experiencing different lives. Of course, you have to choose the one with the most contrasting experience."

The other two present may not be able to guess what Xue Ci's "big contrast" refers to.

"The most important thing is." Xue Ci tapped his fingertips on the table flatly, "This character has the least amount of scenes and is the least important. If the filming effect is not good, it should be convenient for the director to cut it out."

This sentence is almost familiar.Manager Qin blushed a little, and didn't care that this was his private thought before, and said with a blushing face, "Don't underestimate yourself."

"I believe that your acting... is also very good." This is the true thought of Manager Qin who has watched Xue Ci's stage play.

Xue Ci paused slightly.

He smiled: "...Thank you."

Before the audition—or pre-determined entry into the group, Xue Ci first went to the acting cram school arranged by Qin's manager.

In fact, this kind of cram school not only teaches "acting skills", but also Xue Ci's experience in facing the big screen as a newcomer.The teachers will carefully teach him how to face the camera, how to expose his best parts in front of the camera to be screened, how to handle the expression to an appropriate degree, so as not to appear too paralyzed or too exaggerated and greasy .

At the very beginning, the teacher's teaching was still: "You are a new actor, don't be too 'closed' in the form of performance, even if it seems to be open, it is better than facial paralysis. Don't think about showing complex acting skills with details, no This need to be accomplished overnight can be replaced by a more skillful performance method..." But after seeing Xue Ci's first performance, they immediately stopped talking.

You can't teach like that!

This kind of teaching method is simply killing his spiritual energy.

If it wasn't for the manager's polite request that it was Xue Ci's first time, please be more considerate.And the other party is indeed a star for the first time (if there were rumors before, it should have been spread by now), and Xue Ci occasionally showed a little rustiness in the form of performance, they probably would never believe it, this is a character A performer learning the system for the first time.

It's too much for God to rush to feed and eat.

They are so talented that they can't even feel jealous, they can only sigh with admiration. Indeed, some people are born suitable to present themselves on the screen, and they are born to use performances to mobilize other people's emotions.

The latter point is difficult to achieve.

Just like some well-known big actors, you can't say that he doesn't work hard, and you can't say that his acting skills are not good.But no matter what role he plays, the first thing you think of when you see him is his real name, or a classic image, not the name of the character.

Even if the makeup artist has a pair of skillful hands, and the director's editing is seamless and touching, it is difficult to get out of this vicious circle.

But Xue Ci is a little different.When he starts to perform, even if it's the most difficult performance without a physical object, the next second you still think that he is Jingui's young master of the Xue family, and the next second you have forgotten the name Xue Ci, and you are completely substituted into it. In his performance, he is happy or sad, happy or angry, and the complex ups and downs of emotions far exceed the usual mood swings.Especially for professionals like them who rely on performances for a living, they have seen too many performances, and they are usually very careful not to invest their emotions in falsehoods, or they will consume too much, but Xue Ci's performances can easily break this emotional tension. barrier.

A little too amazing.

While lamenting that this is a talent and a miracle, the teachers have stricter control over Xue Ci's requirements and subtle expressions, far exceeding the energy exchanged by equal exchange of remuneration, and Xue Ci did not let them down.

Until the acting class came to an end, the teachers of the acting class were still a little bit reluctant.

Xue Ci thanked the teachers who taught him for a period of time, and began to prepare to join the group.

Although there is also an audition, but as long as Xue Ci's performance is not too much, Director Yun will probably laugh at the artist brought by Qin's agent because of his connections and the huge investment. Editing technology - as long as the protagonist is reliable, the small supporting roles can largely make up for the shortcomings through modeling, photography, and lighting editing.

When they entered the group, the crew was still shooting some minor details.Director Yun came to meet Manager Qin with a cigarette in his mouth, with a relaxed expression: "Old Qin is here, the artist in your hand—"

When he saw Xue Ci behind Manager Qin, Director Yun was stunned for a moment, and calmly put out the cigarette: "Is this your new employer?"

"Come to discuss cooperation with our crew? How much should you invest first?"

Manager Qin: "..."

Xue Ci: "."
