Chapter 56 Signing

On the first day of the audition, Ye Weilin only left six people, Mai Dong, Xue Wen, Xie Donglin, Ming Yan, and two male stars who have recently been active on TV as endorsements for food advertisements. Their auditions were "Song Ting" and "Wang Qinghan", in Ye Weilin's view, their performance can only be regarded as just passing the passing line.

There will be an audition in a few days, and he is not in a hurry to decide on the role immediately, and took the information of these six people back to study.

Ye Weilin has been looking for a new house some time ago because he has graduated from Chinese opera and because of the narrow living environment. It just so happens that Ji Yan has an unused elevator room in the city center. After seeing it, Ye Weilin thought it was good, so he booked it .

The house is located in the city center, which belongs to a high-end residential area, near the bustling business district, but the sound insulation and greening are very good, it is a typical example of quietness in the midst of noise.There are also several large-scale art training institutions nearby. Ye Weilin considers that Yin Lan is just in his third year of high school and is preparing for the Chinese opera exam. Taking an art exam class will also help his studies.

This house is a standard three-bedroom, two-living room, one kitchen, two bathrooms, and a total of 120 square meters, which is more than enough for two people to live in.

What's more convenient is that Ji Yan lives next door to him. Originally, this was a rather large luxury suite, which belonged to Ji Yan's family's vacant real estate in the capital. The space was too large, and she wanted to make some money, so she divided the apartment into two sets in the neighborhood. She lives in one and rents out the other.

She originally rented it to several foreigners, but some people left later, and the others quit the rent together because they didn't want to share such a high rental cost.It happened that Ye Weilin was looking for a house, so Ji Yan rented the house to him. After all, as Ye Weilin's temporary manager and assistant, she could handle the work more conveniently and quickly.

After finishing today's audition work, Ye Weilin and Ji Yan went home together. When the two were discussing how to arrange the next affairs in the elevator, the elevator door opened with a "ding" sound, and a young man walked in.

"Brother Ye!"

"Liu Jia!"

The other party and Ye Weilin exclaimed at the same time, with incredible expressions on their faces. The two of them have never met since the day they graduated. Originally, the four in the dormitory made an appointment to have a breakup meal after graduation, but it turned out that Ma Wencai was that guy. He took over the film again and joined the filming team. Xie Donglin often sees the beginning but never ends, while Ye Weilin is busy with the new movie. No matter how difficult it is for the four of them to get together, this break-up meal has been shelved indefinitely.

"Do you live here now? What a coincidence! My family also lives here!" Liu Jia asked Ye Weilin with a look of surprise, "I heard from reports that "The Phantom of Hometown" earned hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office, is it true? Yes Yes, I also saw news that you are going to direct "Song Manting"?"

Faced with Liu Jia's barrage of questions, Ye Weilin felt joyful about the reunion, but at the same time, he also had a headache. Although Liu Jia is the most refined-looking type in the dormitory, he is actually like a chatterbox in front of acquaintances.

"I live in E1209 on the [-]th floor. If you are free, let's go up and have a chat together?" Ye Weilin smiled and pointed to Ji Yan behind him and said, "This is my manager and assistant, Ji Yan, who is also our alumni."

Only then did Liu Jia realize that there were other people present, her fair face blushed immediately, and she whispered, "Hello."

After Ji Yan greeted Liu Jia generously, the elevator finally stopped at the destination.

When Liu Jia saw that the two were living next door, she suddenly had the heart to gossip, and smiled wretchedly at Ye Weilin who was opening the door: "So they are still neighbors? Why do you live separately?"

Ye Weilin wanted to give him a blank look, but the door suddenly opened from the inside. When Yin Lan saw Liu Jia with a smiling face, she unconsciously closed it.

Liu Jia was making fun of the other party, but felt a gaze from head to toe, he looked around, but saw a boy standing at the door at some point.

The young man had an unforgettable beautiful face and tall figure. When the other party looked at him with those slightly narrow eyes, Liu Jia felt a burst of heart palpitations for no reason, followed by a numbness in his heart.

He was stunned for a long time before he remembered that the person in front of him was the hero of "The Phantom of Hometown".

"What are you doing standing there stupidly?" Ye Weilin walked into the door for a while, only to find that his friend was still standing at the door, and Yin Lan didn't know what was going on, but also blocked there.

"His name is Yin Lan, you should know him too." Ye Weilin introduced to Liu Jia, he meant that the other party must have seen Yin Lan on the big screen.

Then he introduced to Yin Lan: "This is Liu Jia, my roommate in college."

Yin Lan knew that Ye Weilin seldom took people home, so they probably had something to talk about, so they consciously hid in the room after saying hello.

Ye Weilin saw that Liu Jia was still looking out of his mind, and couldn't help teasing: "What are you thinking? Have you taken a fancy to our Yin Lan?"

"Go!" Liu Jia finally came back to her senses. After laughing and making a fuss, the two talked about their recent situation.

Ye Weilin wanted to tell him that Xie Donglin went to audition for "Song Manting", but later he thought it was a commercial secret and he couldn't disclose it until the candidate was confirmed.

When he thinks of the new movie, he has some headaches. So far, the roles of "Asano" and "Song Manting" are tentatively filled, but the candidates for roles such as "Song Ting" and "Wang Qinghan" are still unsatisfactory.

In his heart, those two male stars who were filming endorsements were actually passed by, but only they had a little bit of strength in the materials sent by the company, and the others were even more unsightly.

Although he, as a director, actually has the right to recommend, but the audition is organized by the company after all, the candidates are limited, and he is not a scout, he prefers to select candidates purposefully rather than looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Oh, if I knew I was going to study directing, there is no future for a star..." Liu Jia babbled about how he signed a contract with a certain star studio after graduation, and occasionally received some guest appearance opportunities, but Always doing nothing most of the time.

"My manager said that I look too fair and refined, and there are very few important roles that suit my appearance. Damn, I'm not white, I'm black!"

When Ye Weilin heard this absent-mindedly, his thoughts could not help moving slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at the other party carefully.

Liu Jiasheng has good looks, but it is nothing unusual in the entertainment industry. His characteristic is that his complexion is particularly fair. I think that after more than ten days of military training, this is the only one who still has delicate and fair skin like a girl.

Perhaps it has something to do with the whiteness of the skin, Liu Jia has a delicate and elegant temperament, no matter how dusty the clothes let him wear, they give people a clean feeling.

It does fit the description of "Wang Qinghan" in the script.

Before he thought that Ming Yan might be able to play "Wang Qinghan", but now it seems that although Ming Yan is more handsome than Liu Jia, his temperament is not as good as Liu Jia.

After getting along for several years, Ye Weilin also knows Liu Jia's acting skills quite well, and the two of them will act in the dormitory when they have nothing to do, sometimes for professional needs, and sometimes purely for spoofing.For Ye Weilin's evaluation, he felt that Liu Jia's performance might not be as shocking as Xie Donglin's, but he had a different personality, focusing on nature and being delicate.

"Why are you staring at me?" Liu Jia felt goosebumps when she felt Ye Weilin's meticulous scrutiny.

"I have an audition opportunity, do you want to try it?" Ye Weilin ignored the exaggerated expression of the other party and asked seriously.

When Liu Jia heard this, she was stunned for a while, then suddenly came back to her senses, and shouted excitedly: "Is it the character in "Song Manting"? Who is it? Is it the Japanese officer?"

Ye Weilin shook his head and said with a smile, "Song Manting's husband—Wang Qinghan."

After seeing off Liu Jia with a dreamy expression, Ye Weilin was planning to go back to his room to rest, when he accidentally caught a glimpse of the light shining from under the door of Yin Lan's room, he seemed to remember something, hesitated for a while, and knocked on the other's door .

"Brother, what's the matter?"

The door was quickly opened, and facing Yin Lan's slightly puzzled expression, he said in a gentle tone, "Sit down and talk."

I don't know if it was Ye Weilin's illusion, but at that moment, he felt that Yin Lan was nervous.

In fact, Ye Weilin approached Yin Lan to talk about his future plans. Yin Lan is already a senior high school student, and his wish is to be admitted to the Huaxia Drama Academy. This goal is not easy. It is the performance department of Chinese opera, and the assessment is very strict.Even if Yin Lan has big screen experience, and even conquered many audiences with her performance in "The Phantom of Hometown", it doesn't mean anything, and it is not surprising even if she loses the election.

Because of the popularity of "The Phantom of Hometown", Yin Lan, who was a topical character, could no longer go to school calmly as before, so Ye Weilin simply suspended his studies for him and hired a tutor to make up for him. Blue News reported a reliable art school organization, which Ji Yan accidentally disclosed to him, saying that it was run by a teacher of Chinese opera, and the courses were specially designed for the art examination of Chinese opera. Film and other top art schools.

After the two sat down in the living room, Ye Weilin was worried that the other party would be dissatisfied with his single-handedly planning his life, and when he was thinking about how to speak, Yin Lan spoke first instead.

"Brother..." Yin Lan finally raised his head, which had been lowered after sitting down, but his eyes never dared to touch Ye Weilin.

"What's wrong?" Ye Weilin showed a trace of worry. Could it be that he was under pressure after staying at home for too long?His prepared remarks began to hesitate again. Although he hoped that the other party would be admitted to Huaxi, he didn't want to put too much pressure on the other party.

Yin Lan seemed to have finally made up her mind, she looked straight at him, and her voice was soft but firm: "I plan to sign with Xingyu Century."

……

After a brief silence, Ye Weilin found his voice with difficulty: "When did it happen, Luo Mao...or what did my brother say to you?"

Yin Lan shook her head and said, "They looked for me, but it was my own decision."

Ye Weilin looked at him for a long time before saying, "Why Xingyu?"

Yin Lan's eyes were half down, looking at the clean floor, she was silent for a while before saying, "Because Xingyu offered the best conditions."

Ye Weilin sighed: "I hope you didn't sign Xingyu because of me. Xingyu and I are not in a bonded relationship. Although Xingyu is the biggest investor in the movie "Song Manting" directed this time, it doesn't mean that Xingyu will be the biggest investor in the future. .”

Yin Lan nodded: "I know."

Looking at the other party's stubborn eyes, Ye Weilin knew that no matter what he said, he would not be able to change the other party's decision, so he stood up and said, "As long as you think it through and make a decision, I will respect you."

Yin Lan raised his head suddenly, and his eyes that were full of obscurity and anxiety just now burst into brilliance. He asked cautiously: "Brother, aren't you angry?"

Ye Weilin looked a little helpless: "I think I have a mild personality, right? In your eyes, am I such an immoral person?"

"No!" Yin Lan quickly denied, "In my eyes, brother is the best person!"

"That's it." Ye Weilin joked, but he was still a little uneasy. He hesitated and said, "Can't you wait... It won't be too late to sign a contract when you go to college or when you are full."

"Don't worry, I won't affect my studies. The terms stated that before I was a minor, I had the right to make my own choices about the jobs arranged by the company. Knowing that I was going to take the Chinese opera exam, they even planned the training for the art exam for me. You don't have to worry about that."

"Really...that's good." Ye Weilin paused, not knowing what it was like in his heart. Maybe it was Yin Lan's consistent obedience that made him gradually get used to controlling the other person's life, and an occasional resistance made him finally realize , He has meddled in too many things, and it should be enough.
