Bole Film Building 6th Floor.

Pei Qi took a taxi, and while taking the elevator upstairs, he saw many young people of the same age as him, and they probably all came to audition.

Today, Pei Qi, dressed in a white T-shirt + jeans and wearing a mask, looks the same as the other audition candidates, but he has a good temperament. Standing in the crowd is quite eye-catching, which attracts many curious eyes. The aura around him was a bit cold, and no one dared to approach him for a conversation.

I followed the crowd to the 6th floor. As soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw a large transparent "waiting hall". It was almost full of people. Go to the ticket machine next to you to get a number, then find a seat and sit down, and wait for the number to be called.

At that time, the staff will bring you in for an interview.

For Pei Qi, this is really... a fresh experience.

As soon as he graduated, he signed a contract with a brokerage company. The first film company he starred in had participation in investment and a certain right to speak. The agent who brought him, Judy, was a well-known gold medal agent in the circle at that time. The artist and the director have collaborated once before, and the relationship is okay.

So the audition was the director's studio where his agent Zhu Di took him directly. At that time, Pei Qi was a newcomer, and he was not afraid of tigers when he was born. During the audition, he performed very well and won the role.

Right now there is no support from the company, and I have no network resources in this strange world. I can only accept the cumbersome audition process like an extra. This feeling of gap is really uncomfortable.

Pei Qi squeezed the space between his eyebrows, and followed the others to get a number first. After finding an empty seat and sitting down, he found that many audition candidates were holding a good profile. The boy with pimples, in general, was silently "reciting" his self-introduction.

On the other hand, Pei Qi himself came with nothing.

"Are you here alone? Are you nervous?" Seeing that Pei Qi turned his head and looked at him suspiciously, the acne boy seemed to be asking, "Are you talking to me?" He quickly nodded and introduced himself: "My name is Wang. Ming, hello."

"Hello. I'm alone, don't be nervous."

Wang Ming was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, "Dude, I didn't expect you to look aloof, and there is a kind of cute contrast in your words, which is quite funny. I am also alone. I haven't signed a company or an agent yet. I don't care about anything. I have to run for myself, how about you, have you signed a contract with the company?"

"En." Pei Qi didn't want to say much, he had always been impatient with this kind of conversation.

"Don't mind me, I'm just a little nervous and want to talk to someone to distract my attention." Wang Ming's eyes dimmed as he spoke, "However, I also know that I have no acting skills, no looks, no background, and mediocre acting skills. As an assistant director, I was very nervous, but when I really met director Xin Baiyuan, my legs were weak.”

Deputy director?That's right, Pei Qi recalled that the assistant director seemed to be responsible for the recruitment of small roles. Like the junior "audition" they came to participate in today, it seems that a batch of unqualified ones must be eliminated first, and those who fit the role and have the potential to play can be promoted. Have the opportunity to audition with the director.

"No. 39!" The person sitting in the chair in front of Wang Ming was called, and followed the staff into the interview.

Envious and nervous, Wang Ming asked Pei Qi, "What's your number?" Seeing that Pei Qi was holding a note with the queue number in his hand, he craned his neck curiously, "No. 86! I'm 78." No, we're about the same!"

Pei Qi: "..." There are 47 people ahead, how long will it take?

after an hour.

There are more than 20 people in front of Pei Qi.

The calling stopped suddenly.

"The assistant director is here!" Someone shouted, causing commotion at the scene.

Many auditioners stood up one after another, and Pei Qi stood up suspiciously to see what was happening in front of him. He saw a middle-aged man in his 40s standing at the front of the crowd, with thin hair on his forehead and an apologetic expression on his face. Announced: "I'm sorry, the selection of the leading male lead role has ended, and the remaining people can continue to line up if they can accept other roles."

After speaking, he whispered a few words to the staff next to him, and left.

Just send them away like this?Pei Qi, who had waited in line for nothing, turned around and left without hesitation.

"Hey, wait for me." Wang Ming grabbed his own information and followed Pei Qi to leave.

When the audition was wasted, very few people left immediately. When Pei Qi and Wang Ming took the same elevator downstairs, it was not as lively as it was when they first arrived in the afternoon. The two walked out of the lobby on the first floor one after the other.

When he reached the door, Pei Qi turned around and said, "Why did you come out?"

"Damn, I just came here to play the male lead. Although I am not tall and powerful, I look young. In fact, I am already 23. I have learned martial arts. I think action movies are just right for me. Who knows After running a few crews, every time the first round was brushed..."

"Before I came this time, I told myself that if I couldn't advance to the first round, I gave up."

Pei Qi: "..." He is not good at comforting others, and was thinking of something to say, when a group of people came out, the leader was a bodyguard, and he was signaling them both to get out of the way.

Wang Ming quickly pulled Pei Qi aside, the pedestrian passed in front of them, and the man walking in the middle was a man wearing sunglasses, light blue striped shirt + black trousers, although he didn't see his face, But he has a superior figure, is a clothes hanger, has an outstanding image and temperament, and has many staff members by his side, so he is undoubtedly an artist.

"He seems to be Song Fang!" Wang Ming pointed out.

Pei Qi: "Song Fang?" Who is it?

"Yes, it's definitely Song Fang. The one walking in front is his bodyguard, I recognize him!" Seeing Pei Qi's puzzled eyes, Wang Ming said in surprise, "You don't even know who Song Fang is, do you?"

In order to show that he didn't know everything, Pei Qi said, "I know Chu Siqin."

"Chu Siqin, his company's marketing is very good, and his fans are very good at casting votes, so he has the title of top streamer. There are also two traffic kings, one is Mo Ran and the other is Liang Yiqiu. , and Song Fang just now is a newly emerging popular film actor, who has made four films in just two years since his debut, resourceful!"

Then, Wang Ming patted his thigh angrily, and said excitedly: "Song Fang appears here, the male number one of "Young King" is definitely destined for him, he is the number one artist promoted by Shengyu Media, his grandfather He is an old actor who has won the 'Lifetime Artistic Achievement Award'. He has enjoyed a lot of resources of the second generation of stars since his debut. He is handsome and has acting skills. He really...will be reincarnated!"

Seeing that Pei Qi frowned tightly, thinking that he was deeply shocked, Wang Ming comforted him: "You should be here for the first time for an interview, right? I don't think you have any preparations, such as today's audition situation, wait for you to experience a lot , also numb..."

Pei Qi understands.He has never experienced it, and he has been in the entertainment industry for many years. He has heard of many rules, but he always firmly believes that "as long as you persist, gold will always shine"!

But today it was like a pot of cold water woke him up. He was capable but didn't even have the chance to audition, and he couldn't even meet the director. How to win this role is a problem.It even more foiled that my previous career path was going too smoothly, and I never had to face these things, everything was arranged by the agent and the team.

As soon as he thought of his manager, Shen Ji called: "Where are you? I have something important to discuss with you! I can't make it clear on the phone, let's meet and talk."

After making an appointment with Shen Ji, Pei Qi hung up the phone and found that Wang Ming hadn't left yet, "What's the matter?"

Wang Ming shook the mobile phone in his hand: "Shall we add a WeChat friend? If there is a suitable job or role, please introduce it to me? By the way, I forgot to ask your name?"

"Surname Pei, Pei Qi."

"Oh, Pei Qi." I seem to have heard this name somewhere, so familiar!The next second, Wang Ming finally remembered, his eyes widened in surprise, "Pei, Pei Qi?"

"Yes, it's me."

Pei Qi and Shen Ji didn't make an appointment at the company, but met in a cafe outside.

Pei Qi arrived first, followed by Shen Ji hurriedly. As soon as he sat down, he took off his glasses, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a tissue, "I'm so hot."

With this tall body, the flesh on his stomach trembles when he walks, and he sweats easily when he moves. Shen Ji really feels tired. He misses his 1.7m but thin body very much!

So you have to do a good job in your career to have a chance to get everything back on track!

"Let's talk about the current situation."

Shen Ji is used to paying attention to efficiency, so he cut straight to the point when he opened his mouth: "Recently, I have contacted several staff members of the film crew, and I managed to meet the two directors, but the situation is not very optimistic..."

This time he hit the iron plate. It was more difficult than he expected to get a suitable role for Pei Qi. If the golden finger is open, it means nothing. What's the use of knowing what drama will be popular? The reputation of a rookie with no strength + a paparazzi-turned-career manager is really poisonous...

There are many opportunities in the entertainment industry in this world, and the threshold for entering the film and television industry is quite low. Newcomers without any acting experience can take the lead in new dramas, but there is a strong push from the company behind it, and Star Entertainment currently has no He also plans to feed Pei Qi's resources and wait to see what his new manager can do.

"What's worse, every time 'Pei Qi' is on the hot search because of all kinds of negative news, in their view, it means that there are unknown risks."

So dare not use it.Worried about when the negative news will be exposed again, which will affect the whole show. In order to avoid such unknown risks, the crew prefers to choose other "clean and innocent" newcomers, even though Pei Qi has good looks and has a certain degree of topicality. Also unwilling to take risks.

Pei Qi was silent, what Shen Ji said was indeed true, it was a fact.A more realistic point is that when the word Pei Qi is thrown in the pile of newcomers, he does not have any advantage, so he went to the "Boys King" audition, and was rejected without hesitation like other newcomers.

"However, the purpose of my coming out with you today is another matter..."

The road to self-recommended audition was not easy, Shen Ji calmed down and analyzed and summarized, then quickly adjusted the plan!

The paparazzi Shen Ji has been in the circle for several years. As a paparazzi, he has captured a lot of shocking material, but the material that comes out is only partial, so he has accumulated a little network resources. He learned about the variety show "I Is an Actor" Season [-] is recruiting actors.

This variety show is "the first domestic reality show with characters competing for roles", and the banner is "discovering more capable and potential actors for the audience to see". A considerable number of actors have gained attention after finishing the show. With the resources, I received a new play.

"Go to a variety show?" Pei Qi instinctively resisted. Since his debut, he has never been on a variety show, and only focuses on filming. In his opinion, variety shows have an element of show, which is another kind of acting that consumes himself.

Shen Ji knew that it was not easy to convince Pei Qi. He thought that Pei Qi had encountered embarrassing and suffocating comments from his mentor when he appeared in variety shows, and was attacked by negative public opinion, which left a psychological shadow, so he resisted. He himself did not support artists to appear in variety shows. , worried about consuming the artist's own image.

But if they want to break the situation, they have to seize this opportunity, and they can only explain the stakes to the brat:

"This is a star-studded variety show. If we can get on the show, then the unknown risks will go to hell. It will be much more beneficial for us to audition for roles. I have already talked with one of the directors of the show group. You are very interested in joining, and I mentioned this to the chief director, and the chief director also agreed to meet!"

"I think this thing can almost be done, what do you think?"
