For the sake of my life, I might even be able to dominate the entertainment industry

Yan Shutong couldn't laugh anymore. (bug catch)

Although he felt that the task of the system was so difficult that it was almost impossible to complete, Yan Shutong had already boarded the pirate ship, and there was no possibility of turning back.

For his own life, even if it was an illusory opportunity, he had to try it.

Yan Shutong accepted the system's conditions, and he completed the first novice task smoothly.

There is a saying in the system that is true, Yan Shutong has nothing to do with being a kid, except that he has a face that everyone agrees with when they meet.Walking on the street since he was a child, there are countless scouts who want to give him a business card.

Yan Shutong found several well-known companies from the business cards in the bag at home.Finally, after system analysis, Shangqi Entertainment was selected.

This entertainment company, which has only been established for four or five years, has gained a firm foothold in the domestic entertainment industry where the weak eat the strong in a relatively short period of time.

It is one thing for the company to be backed by a well-known wealthy family in China, but more importantly, one of its shareholders is Duan Tou, a legendary actor who still has myths even in today's entertainment circle where entertainers are everywhere.

Duan Tou entered the show business circle at the age of 16, and his debut was at the peak. His debut work became popular all over the country and won awards at home and abroad.Since then, he has been ups and downs in the film industry for seven years, and won various awards.The sensation when he announced his semi-retirement three years ago is still talked about until now.

There is even a saying in the entertainment industry that has been passed down to the present.

Duan can't fall, Shang Qi can't fall.

Duan Tou's nationality is to save money, he never pays attention to celebrities, and Yan Shutong, who has never stepped into a movie theater, also knows it.

After a comprehensive analysis of the system and reading a lot of commercial value, Yan Shutong chose Shangqi Entertainment without hesitation.

Fortunately, Shangqi Entertainment has handed him business cards several times, the most recent one being last month.

The scout obviously still had an impression of Yan Shutong, and immediately finalized the time and place of the signing.

Yan Shutong was considered to have completed the first novice task, and the system released him the second one without stopping.

[Novice task: Ask the host to play a role in a well-known director's movie. If you succeed, you will get a beauty bonus for one day. If you fail, you will be automatically unbound. 】

[Remarks: The playing time needs to exceed 1 minute. 】

Shang Qi generally doesn’t arrange any work for trainees who haven’t made their debut, let alone spend a minute in a big director’s movie.This kind of good deed will definitely not happen to Yan Shutong who doesn't even have a manager.

In order to complete the task, Yan Shutong had to get up early and run to the film and television city to try his luck.

Of course, he didn't get up early in the morning, but he was lucky.

Yan Shutong followed the middle-aged man into the film and television city.

"I'm the casting director of the crew. Just call me Director Wang. Oh, by the way, do you know our crew?"

The young man with a delicate face came back to his senses, his face was shining brightly under the sun.Yan Shutong shook his head, "I don't know."

Director Wang was overjoyed at once: "You don't know who I am? Then you follow me, aren't you afraid that I will sell you?"

"Didn't you introduce it just now? You are the casting director in the crew, and you asked me to play a small role. I came here just to find a role to play."

After listening to it, Director Wang realized that he had misunderstood. Yan Shutong was not a tourist who he thought was coming to visit, but was waiting for work like many extras squatting at the gate of the film and television city.He wasn't angry either, on the contrary he was a little happier.

"You came here looking for a role to play? How many roles have you played? How is your acting skills?"

Yan Shutong was just about to shake his head and say that he had never acted before, but then he thought about what he said, don’t look back and people will not want him, so he replied vaguely, "There are not many roles played, and his acting skills... are not bad. Bar."

The "Famous Acting Skills" produced by the system should be enough for a character, right?

Director Wang laughed, but didn't take Yan Shutong's words to heart.The staff of the film crew have been in the film and television city for a long time, and they have seen tens of thousands of extras, and almost everyone praised their acting skills to the sky, comparable to the actor.

But what about practicality?

It can be used just enough.If they were really capable, they would be popular, not to mention, but at least they would be familiar with the directors, and they wouldn't be squatting at the gate of the film and television city every day.

But having acted a role, it is enough to know how to behave in front of the camera. What Director Wang likes is not Yan Shutong's acting skills, but his face that is still shining even in the crowd.

With this appearance, as long as his acting skills are acceptable, Director Xu should be able to use it, right?

Thinking of the fussy lead director in the crew, Director Wang's face wrinkled into a bitter gourd look.

It has been more than a month since the film was started, and the big director picked and picked a character that only appeared for a few minutes. Either he thought this one was too old, or that one was not good-looking and did not fit the role setting.

Seeing that it is almost finished, the role has not been found yet.Pity him, who is only in his 20s. He ran up and down because of this matter, and lost a lot of hair.If this goes on like this, he might be going bald!

But this time it really won't work... Director Wang calmly looked at the dazzling face of the young man beside him, and sighed, then he really has nothing to do.

"Let me tell you about the role you will play later." In order not to let himself be tossed again, Director Wang decided to let Yan Shutong know in advance, and try to pass it in front of Director Xu once.

"Our crew is "Xiantu", and the main director is Director Xu who has won several awards. Director Xu, do you know?" He babbled on, regardless of Yan Shutong's reaction, and continued Said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter whether you know it or not. In short, you just remember that Director Xu has very high requirements for the role."

"The character you want to audition for is a hardened fox demon in "Fairy Way". He picked up the injured male protagonist in the valley and kindly healed the wounded. So you have to show a state of innocence and ignorance. But at the same time you also Don't forget that your role is set to be a fox demon, and a natural sense of charm is also essential."

As Director Wang spoke, he felt like he was about to cry.

It was because of such contradictory requirements that he hadn't even seen an actor who met the requirements for more than a month.

It is said that working under the hands of a great director is popular, but how many people have seen how many beloved hairs he lost in order to find an actor who would satisfy Director Xu!

"As for the role, that's about it." Director Wang brought him into the set, patted Yan Shutong on the shoulder, and instructed earnestly, "I guess Director Xu will be interested in talking about the scene with you later. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask. Don’t be afraid.”

"By the way, I don't know your name yet?"

"The feast is sparse."

"That's fine, Xiaoyan, you wait here for a while. I'll go find Director Xu. He was still sitting here with the camera just now. I don't know where he went now."

It's not easy to have someone who looks like the little fox in the script of "Fairy Journey", and Director Xu will definitely not let it go so easily.

As long as he is not so stupid that he is hopelessly stupid, Director Xu probably will pass it with patience.

"Okay." Yan Shutong nodded silently, not daring to say that he didn't understand a word from just now.

"Uh..." The system bubbled up.

[It's okay, the host has system-rewarded famous acting skills.With the buff of famous actors' acting skills, these can be learned without a teacher. 】

Yan Shutong breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

In order to save energy, he now communicates with the system directly in his heart.

"But I just heard from Director Wang that the director will audition for me later." Yan Shutong didn't expect such a strict requirement for a secondary role, and he was a little uncertain.

【Can I use rewards during my audition? 】

The system didn't leave him with any illusions: "No, this reward can only be used during filming."

That would be the end of the calf.

Yan Shutong couldn't laugh anymore, let alone acting, he couldn't even understand the outline of what he was told.

When the audition later, he won't be kicked out of the set by the director, right?

Yan Shutong, who was lost in thought, unconsciously leaned against the wall behind him, unaware that he had already become the focus of everyone's attention the moment he stepped into the set.

The handsome young man seemed to be shining, even if he was huddled in a corner, he was still eye-catching.The place he was in seemed to have separated a conspicuous Chu River-Han border from the others, and the brick wall he leaned on behind him seemed to have turned into jade at that moment, shining brightly.

Standing there, he was already a sight.

When Director Xu came in, he saw such a scene, and his eyes lit up.

He just went out to answer a phone call, and when he came back, he ran into the casting director in the crew, and heard the other party boasting about a boy he had never heard of before.Xu Dao, who was still indifferent to Wang Dao's description, now only has joy in his heart.

This, isn't this the A Tao in his script who came back to life!

Director Xu walked over quickly: "Is that you? Xiao Wang said the young man who came to audition."

Yan Shutong looked at the middle-aged man who suddenly appeared, feeling familiar.The identity of the middle-aged man has not yet been pulled out from memory, and the director Wang who brought him here ran over, "Xiao Yan, let me introduce you. This is the lead director of our crew, Director Xu."

It turned out to be the big boss.

Yan Shutong straightened his back unconsciously.

"Xiaoyan, right? Time is of the essence. I just heard that Director Wang said that he has already told you the outline of the character, so I won't tell you about it."

"Uh..." Come on, he really wanted to listen to it again.

"Let me tell you about the play." Director Xu took out the tattered script in his hand, and found out the role of the fox demon A Tao.Very short, only half a page, "It's quite simple, just a few scenes, if everything goes well, it can be over in half a day."

Wang Dao, who was on the side, had an unlovable look on his face after hearing this.Director Xu's mouth is a deceiving ghost.

Hearing these words from the start of the production crew, he could hear cocoons in his ears.Almost every actor who auditioned for the role of Little Fox Demon would be comforted by Director Xu so kindly, and then...he would be kicked out of the crew without mercy.

"The background of this part of the play happened when the male protagonist Chu Huaiyi was betrayed, lost all his cultivation, and fell off a cliff. The A Tao you want to play is a little fox demon who has just transformed into a mountain. A Tao is the first The first time I saw a human being, I became curious about Chu Huaiyi. Then I fell in love with this human being in the process of taking care of Chu Huaiyi."

"But Chu Huaiyi has only experienced betrayal, and A Tao's identity is still a monster, so he doesn't believe in A Tao's kindness to him. Instead, he thinks that A Tao has a plan for him. Pretending to like him, so he has been Treat A Tao with hypocrisy."

"A misunderstanding, Chu Huaiyi thought that A Tao was going to kill him. He acted aggressively and killed A Tao first. Before he died, A Tao not only did not blame him, but also offered his own demon pill for Chu Huaiyi to swallow. , go back and seek revenge on the enemy.”

"Chu Huaiyi finally believed in A Tao's feelings. But it was too late and there was no way to save A Tao's life."

In a few short scenes, the plot is full of ups and downs, which is really a test of the ability of the actors.

For this scene to show the innocence and simplicity of A Tao's first entry into the world, the actor must not be too old, otherwise the audience will not be convincing.And the character is a fox demon, the actor's appearance can't be too bad, right?

Actors who are young, good-looking, and have to pass the acting skills are really rare these days.

This is also the reason why Director Xu has searched for so many actors from casting to filming and now it is almost finished, but he has never found a suitable actor.

In fact, Director Xu just went out to answer the phone, and he was discussing the scene of the fox demon A Tao with the producer.

Director Xu asked Gui Mao, such a small role that played for 2 minutes has been searched for more than a month, but no one is seen, and the producer has also begun to worry.An ultimatum was issued to Director Xu, either quickly find someone to make do with it, or change the plot.

Director Xu had already prepared the replacement plan for the Fox Demon scene.He also knew his faults, and asked the screenwriter to write another plot in advance before starting the machine.

After the hero Chu Huaiyi fell off the cliff, he didn't meet A Tao, but disturbed the thousand-year-old monster who was sleeping here.After a hard struggle, Chu Huaiyi killed the big demon, swallowed the big demon's demon pill, and reopened the road of cultivation.

The Millennium Demon doesn't even need to find an actor, all of them are done with special effects in post-production and put on it.

But in this way, the plot is a bit unreasonable.Chu Huaiyi, a person who has lost all his cultivation, can not only single out the thousand-year-old monster, but also win, which is unreasonable no matter how you look at it.

The audience looked very cool, but Director Xu couldn't make it through this corner.

And without the part of the fox demon A Tao, the aesthetic feeling he wanted the movie to achieve is gone.

Fortunately, when he was trying to persuade himself to give up, Yan Shutong appeared out of nowhere.

When Director Xu looked at the young man's face, he felt his heart surge.

Yan Shutong's face is really suitable for the big screen.With this appearance, as long as his acting skills are not too bad to be saved, Director Xu feels that it is not impossible for him to relax a little bit of requirements.
