You're not planning to open at all, are you?

This drama is called "Ling Yunzhi". Bai Jiu still has a vague impression of the name, but he has no idea of ​​the specific plot.

There were more people at the audition scene than Bai Jiu had imagined, and he was nervous from the moment he entered the door, especially after hearing that there were twelve auditioners for his role.

While watching his clips, Bai Jiu couldn't help but look at the people around him. Although they didn't know each other, but... they were all quite handsome.

"This competition is too great," Bai Jiu muttered in a low voice, then turned to look at Ji Jiang.

He was dumbfounded at this glance, and he was the only one in Ji Jiang's audition.

"?"

One also tried a fart.

Bai Jiu suddenly felt a little unbalanced, the difference is too big, aren't they all students of C University... I don't have much less fans than him.

Seeing Bai Jiu's eyes, Ji Jiang understood what he was thinking, and smiled: "I won't try, my role has already been decided, and I'm here to play for you."

"A play?" Bai Jiu was taken aback, "So...you want to play a play with twelve people later?"

"Correct."

"Hiss..." Bai Jiu couldn't help applauding, "Pay the noodles, Star Ji."

"If you have the skill to make fun of me, you might as well memorize your lines," Ji Jiang looked at Bai Jiu's empty hand, "Didn't I give it to you just now?"

"Yes." Bai Jiu took out the lines that had been folded into a small piece from his pocket, "It's just such a small piece, I've already remembered it."

Ji Jiang raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Such a good memory?"

"I can't remember anything else, I can remember lines quickly."

Ji Jiang smiled: "Then you are a good seed for acting."

"Thank you for the compliment," Bai Jiu said, "Not as good as you, the male lead has already been booked before debut."

The two praised each other perfunctorily, and went to prepare separately.

When Bai Jiu went in to audition, Ji Jiang already had six people with him.

The role this time came by coincidence. Meng Hezhi wanted to make a few series of short plays, and he was going to try it with an ancient book first. Ji Xiang's company was managed by Wei Tianrui. When he heard the news, he immediately asked someone to contact Meng. and Chi.

It just so happened that Ji Jiang's performance in "Encounter" was good. Meng Hezhi took a look at his work and agreed to let Ji Jiang audition first.

As a result, as soon as Meng Hezhi saw Ji Jiang himself, he immediately made a decision, saying that he would be the male lead of this short play.

However, Ji Jiang proposed that he had a friend who was also his partner in "Encounter", who had a good background and great potential, and wanted Meng and Zhi to use it together.

Meng Hezhi is a person who insists on himself, so he didn't agree immediately, he just asked him to come to the audition, and the director team would just pass it.

……

There are two parts in the audition, one is two people practicing sword together, and the other is an important scene where the two break up.

The role of Bai Jiushi is the male number two, who is also the junior of the leading actor Ji Jiang. They stand aside one by one and act out the scene of practicing sword together when they were teenagers.

Holding the sword, Bai Jiu first subconsciously pulled two sword flowers, then raised the sword flat and pointed at Ji Jiang.

Bai Jiu's ancient costumes have always looked better than modern ones, and investors are more inclined to let him shoot ancient costumes, so Bai Jiu is very proficient in these swords and weapons.

His movements surprised several members of the director team present, but with just a simple movement, the chic and casualness of a martial arts practitioner has been shown.

Chief director Meng Hezhi sat in the middle, looking at Bai Jiu with obvious interest.

Ji Jiang easily knocked the sword out of Bai Jiu's hand with a few movements, and then laughed at him: "Still rushing forward like this, I can't hold the sword steadily."

Bai Jiu picked up the sword on the ground, sat down on the ground, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, you just rely on your good martial arts and keep bullying me. I'll tell Master to go!"

"What is bullying?" Ji Jiang also smiled, "You and I have been practicing martial arts with Master since we were young. Master has high hopes for you, but what about you? You know how to be mischievous, go up the mountain to pick fruits, go down the river to fish loach, and be serious. I haven't practiced much in martial arts, but heretics can be regarded as proficient."

Bai Jiu leaned back, propped his hands on the ground, looked up to the sky, and said in a relaxed tone, "Isn't there a senior brother covering me? With you here, who would dare to bully me?"

Ji Jiang smiled helplessly and shook his head: "You... sooner or later you will suffer."

……

The members of the director team sitting on the side looked at each other with anticipation in their eyes.

"Okay," Zheng Yu, the assistant director, nodded, "Continue to the second paragraph."

Bai Jiu looked at everyone's expressions, and then at Ji Jiang. Ji Jiang smiled at him, and he was slightly relieved, feeling that his performance just now should be okay.

……

The emotional conflict in the second scene was more intense. Bai Jiu adjusted his state, closed his eyes and opened them again, and he had already entered the role.

Ji Jiang's expression changed, and he said sharply, "What did you say?!"

Bai Jiu put the sword back into the scabbard, and said lightly: "I killed it."

"Who asked you to kill!!" Ji Jiang yelled, while holding Bai Jiu's arm, "When is the time for retribution, where did you hear what Master said?!"

Hearing "Master", Bai Jiu's eyes turned red instantly, and he slapped his hand away: "I don't care about retribution, I only know that he killed Master! I want to avenge Master!"

Ji Jiang immediately asked: "Even if Master was at fault first?!"

Bai Jiu answered without hesitation: "Even if Master made a mistake first!!"

"Okay, okay," Ji Jiang took a deep breath, and took two steps back as if he lost his strength, "Very well, Qi Ling, you have grown up now, I can't control you anymore, you should not hear Master's last wish, do whatever you want. Reckless, killing people at will..."

Bai Jiu's eyes became more and more red, and tears were already piling up in his eyes: "Senior brother, if you don't avenge Master, then I will come. Killing people to pay for their lives is justified... I am not wrong."

Ji Jiang sighed and shook his head: "It's a big mistake, do you know the consequences of what you do, you will harm everyone!"

Bai Jiu closed his eyes abruptly, tears welled up in his eyes: "Okay, then I'll go!"

He turned around sharply and strode out before the other party saw the tears.

Ji Jiang shouted behind him: "If you leave this sect today, you will no longer be a disciple of my master's sect!"

Bai Jiu paused slightly, raised his head to look forward, and said in a trembling voice, "...I will never come back again."

……

At the end of this audition, Bai Jiu heaved a sigh of relief, observed everyone's reactions from the corner of his eye, but found that everyone was very quiet.

"Okay!" Meng Hezhi, who had been watching quietly, suddenly shouted, and then applauded.

This movement startled everyone, and they reacted and applauded after him, even Ji Jiang couldn't help but applaud with a smile.

Bai Jiu stood in the middle of the room and looked at everyone. Meng Hezhi asked him, "How old are you?"

"19." Bai Jiu replied.

Meng Hezhi was obviously a little surprised: "You're only 19?"

"I am a freshman this year," Bai Jiu said, "I am a student of C University."

Hearing C University, Meng Hezhi nodded: "Yes, C University has recruited a lot of good seedlings this year." After speaking, he looked at Bai Jiu again: "You don't need to try, it's just you."

Bai Jiu was startled, then came to his senses, and asked him with a smile: "I passed?"

"You are the most suitable," Meng Hezhi also smiled, "I have watched so many actors, and I can't make a mistake. This role is for you to play."

As he said that, he looked at Ji Jiang again: "And when the two of you act together, that feeling is something no one else has."

Assistant director Zheng Yu couldn't help but ask, "How does it feel?"

Meng Hezhi frowned and thought for a while: "It's just...it's very suitable. When the two of them stand there, you feel, yes, it's them."

Bai Jiu glanced at Ji Jiang, Ji Jiang had been laughing since he finished, and when he heard that Bai Jiu had passed, he smiled even more happily, his eyes curled up.

-

Meng Hezhi's drama entered the preparatory period after the roles were decided, and the start time was June. At that time, both Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang had their summer vacation and could devote themselves to filming.

At the same time, the crew of "Encounter" is in the promotion period, and the actors have also begun to accept activities non-stop.

Originally, only Tao Mingcheng and Wen Lan were the main targets of publicity, but due to the increasing popularity of Ji Jiang and Bai Jiu, various media have also started to contact them, wanting to get first-hand interview materials.

Tao Mingcheng's company Supreme Entertainment asked Tao Mingcheng to try to invite Ji Jiang and Bai Jiu to record a variety show together, and the two agreed.

The variety show this time is called "Journey to the East", and it is an interactive breakthrough variety show. Although the popularity is not the highest in the same period, but fortunately it is an old variety show, and the ratings have always been stable.

This was Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang's first time on a variety show. Wei Tianrui was a little worried at first, so he personally sent them to City C, where this episode was filmed, early in the morning, and gave some instructions.

Unexpectedly, Ji Jiang in turn told him a lot of points that need to be paid attention to in the later stage of publicity, and Wei Tianrui learned a lot instead.

Bai Jiu laughed as he listened, and when Wei Tianrui left, he laughed even more exaggeratedly: "Ji Jiang, you are quite the boss of the company, and Mr. Wei still has to report to you."

"Don't laugh at me," Ji Jiang said, "You still haven't found a company, and you don't need an agent. Is it possible that you will do all the announcements yourself?"

Bai Jiu shrugged: "I haven't planned to promote it yet."

Ji Jiang shook his head and said, "You are already a bit famous now, why don't you seize the opportunity to let everyone know you?"

Bai Jiu looked calm: "They will know me sooner or later, not less than a year or two."

"..." Ji Jiang was still about to speak, when he saw two people walking towards him.

Wen Lan was wearing a light yellow sportswear, looking like a young and beautiful female college student. Behind her, Tao Mingcheng was also wearing a light yellow sportswear, obviously the same color clothes specially made for recording the show.

However, Wen Lan didn't look at Tao Mingcheng at all, just after exchanging a few words, she turned her head to look at Bai Jiu and Ji Jiang, and rushed over with one stride.

"Xiao Jiu!!!"
