The audition scene of "Hundred Ghosts".

Gu Yanshen went to the company in the morning, and was called to the scene by Qin Yu in the afternoon. When he came in, there was an artist auditioning.

Gu Yanshen's sense of presence was too strong, as soon as people came in, all the eyes that were originally focused on the artist turned to Gu Yanshen.

He changed into casual clothes today, and after entering the door, he took off the sunglasses hanging on the bridge of his nose, his handsome facial features were immediately exposed in front of everyone, Qin Yu knocked on the table.

"See what he does? Continue."

Gu Yanshen walked to Qin Yu's left and sat down, looked up at the artists who were still auditioning, and Qin Yu gave him an audition list.

"The kid you mentioned didn't come?"

Gu Yanshen responded, and said, "He will come."

"I'm quite curious about this kid. Someone can refuse you? I heard that when you were recording a variety show together, he also refused once. So this is the second time?"

Gu Yanshen: "So what, he's still here."

"Tsk." Qin Yu raised his chin, signaling Gu Yanshen to look across. "If you don't hurry up and get someone here, Director Wang will ask Le Hanfei to audition."

Gu Yanshen didn't speak, but Qin Yu said again.

"Do you know Le Hanfei's strength? Although he is a newcomer, his acting skills are really good. He just won the latest outstanding actor award at the end of last year, and his new drama will be released soon. It is expected that the nominations for the best leading role in the second half of the year will be There is him."

Gu Yanshen didn't lift his eyelids, his expression was calm.

"I have watched the TV series he acted in, and he is indeed a bit talented, lacking experience and polishing."

"It's not easy to get your praise. Experience can be practiced. Everyone comes from newcomers."

Gu Yanshen said, ""Hundred Ghosts" will start filming after the next year, and Le Hanfei is on the rise. His agent estimated that his schedule for the previous season was fully booked."

Qin Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"For your little friend, the investigation is quite detailed, even knowing whether the appointment is full or dissatisfied."

"It's just a reasonable guess." Gu Yan paused, then turned to look at Qin Yu, "Also, he's not a kid at twenty."

"Oh, my nephew is only six years younger than me, and you are seven years older than him, why aren't you a child?"

Before Gu Yanshen could answer, Qin Yu also returned to the topic.

"You guessed right, but you underestimated Director Wang's status in the entertainment industry. Director Wang asked the staff to call and asked Le Hanfei's manager if he would like to audition, and his manager immediately agreed. .”

Gu Yan was not surprised when he heard this deeply. Director Wang is a veteran director, and the films made ten years earlier are already classics now. There are quite a few artists who can participate in Director Wang's movies, even for small supporting roles with few scenes.

"When is he going to audition?"

"Wednesday."

Gu Yanshen didn't express any other meaning, Qin Yu couldn't help asking, "It's been so many days, and the kid hasn't called you, maybe they just don't like filming."

"No, he likes it."

"You know?" Qin Yu looked at him suspiciously.

Gu Yanshen did not explain.

He would know because it was the night when the variety show was recorded.

At that time, Director Wang sent him an electronic version of part of the script revised by the screenwriter. He didn't have a computer with him, and the screen of his mobile phone was too small to watch and was uncomfortable. Seeing that Lu Wenxing didn't use a tablet, he asked him to borrow it.

Lu Wenxing didn't say anything, just took out the tablet from the drawer and handed it to him.

only-

Lu Wenxing's tablet didn't have a lock screen, but Gu Yanshen opened the tablet and saw an interface that hadn't exited yet.

A note app.

There are a lot of movie watching notes on it, as well as the perception and understanding of each movie, as well as the recording and analysis of each actor's performance form.

Gu Yanshen didn't click in to look through it, no matter whether Lu Wen Xingjie didn't mind or not, it was someone else's privacy after all. He just saw it by accident, and when he was surprised, he withdrew.

And the reason why he was sure that Lu Wenxing would come to him was also because of the notes he saw by accident.

Repeatedly pull and record.

No matter what the reason was, at least Gu Yanshen felt that Lu Wenxing didn't 'dislike filming' as he said.

It's just that Gu Yanshen was too confident in his guess, thinking that Lu Wenxing would call him again. As a result, a few days passed without even a WeChat message.

Of course, he invited Lu Wenxing to audition, not because he was filming or recording.

It's that he really thinks Lu Wenxing is suitable for this role.

"Hundred Ghosts" is a fantasy film, Song Jiajia has already been cast as the female lead, and Gu Yanshen is the male lead.

He is the biggest villain in the play, the mastermind of all conspiracies.

Although Gu Yanshen has filmed many movies and TV series, this is the first time he played the role of a villain, which is a new experience for him.

The big villain doesn't bother killing people to vent his anger, he likes to play with people's hearts.

He locked up those intruders who claimed to be righteous, and set up an illusion to make them feel the despair on the verge of death. In despair, they resented each other and killed each other.

After being besieged, the villain fell into the illusion he set up. Then, he met himself in his youth. At that time, he was still a naive young man who was free and easy, fearless of dust, and full of longing for the future.

In the beginning, the director asked him to play two roles.

But after Gu Yanshen read the script several times, he went to read the original book again and again. In the end, he made a suggestion to find a real teenager to play him as a teenager.

The director and screenwriter also discussed repeatedly, and finally agreed that the contrast would be stronger if two people acted together.

The problem is the casting.

The director arranged an audition at the time, but none were satisfactory.

For some reason, after listening to the director, the appearance of Lu Wenxing immediately appeared in his mind.

If Lu Wenxing...

Lu Wenxing is in his third year of junior high school this year. It is right to say that he is a teenager at the age of 20. His image fits well. As for Lu Wenxing's acting skills, it depends on his audition performance.

This was the first time that Gu Yanshen had the idea of who to play with.

Gu Yanshen withdrew his thoughts and looked at the artists who were auditioning.

"He tried fox ghost?"

"Yes." Qin Yu said again: "Painted skin, sprites, and judges have all been fixed. The fox ghost tried more than a dozen, and Director Wang was not satisfied."

After the artiste auditioned, the director frowned slightly. His acting skills were not particularly good, but they were not without merit. only…

The artist also caught a glimpse of the director's reaction, lowered his eyes a little disappointed, and bowed seriously to thank him.

Gu Yanshen suddenly said, "Have you read the original work of "Hundred Ghosts"?"

The artist nodded. Although the audition this time was probably hopeless, Gu Yanshen's conversation with him still surprised him, and his eyes lit up.

"I have read it. I like this novel very much. I have read it five or six times."

"Then you try the mandrill." After Gu Yanshen finished speaking, he added, "Any paragraph is fine."

The artist's eyes widened suddenly. He understood what Gu Yanshen meant. He felt that he was more suitable for this role and wanted to give him a chance to try again.

The artist just felt that he was hit by this huge surprise, and he was still a little dazed, so he nodded sharply after recovering.

"it is good."

***

In the evening, Gu Yanshen went back to the villa in the south of the city. The last time he came back was half a year ago.

The nanny greeted her as soon as she entered the door, turned her head and shouted towards the second floor, "Mr. Gu is back."

A few minutes later, Jiang Li stepped on high heels and walked down with a delicate face.

"Yan Shen, you're back."

"Aunt Jiang."

"Have you eaten? Shall I get you something to eat?"

"No, I've already eaten." Gu Yanshen put down the large and small bags in his hand, and handed him one of the small white gift bags, "New Year's gift."

"Yan Ning and my dad's are in that bag."

It was the same in previous years, Gu Yanshen would go home early and bring gifts for each of them, but he would not stay at home for the New Year.

"Are you not at home for the New Year this year?" Jiang Li frowned, "Your father still talks about you today and asked me to call you. Something happened to Yan Ning at school this afternoon, so I quickly forgot about it."

Gu Yanshen took off his coat, "What happened to him?"

"Fighting with people." Jiang Li sighed, "I locked him in the room, and he was so angry that he didn't even eat dinner."

"I called your dad. If he knew you were coming back, he would come back sooner."

"No need to fight, I'll leave in a while." Gu Yanshen said lightly, "I'll go up and see Yan Ning."

Gu Yanshen went upstairs with several bags of gifts for Gu Yanning, and he knocked on the door first.

"I don't eat, I'll forget it if I starve to death."

Gu Yanshen: "I didn't tell you to eat."

There was a rustling sound in the room, and the door was opened after a while.

"Gu Yanshen, why are you back?"

Gu Yanshen pushed the gift bag into his arms, raised his hand and tapped his forehead, "It's not big or small."

"Hey." Gu Yanning hugged the gift bag, turned to let Gu Yanshen enter the room and immediately locked the door, obviously not letting Jiang Li in.

"Aunt Jiang said you got into fights at school?"

Gu Yanning paused when he unwrapped the gift, and his face immediately wrinkled. "It's not my fault. My mother scolds me every time she comes up. I'm obviously doing good deeds."

"Why fight?"

Gu Yanning looked angry, "That idiot bullied my classmate, I did it bravely. The next time I see him, I won't even recognize him."

"Your brave deeds are to control violence with violence?" Gu Yan raised his eyebrows deeply.

"I couldn't be more angry. I didn't want to fight him at first. That idiot's mouth is too stinky."

"As a result, he was suspended from the school?"

Gu Yanning had a heart attack and complained.

"Brother, why are you like my mother? I did the right thing. My classmate was bullied, shouldn't I help? And I was suspended from class without punishment. The idiot who bullied his classmate was jointly reported and the punishment was demerited."

Gu Yanning pardoned my pressing, and said again.

"Anyway, there will be a holiday in two days, and if the class is suspended, the class will be suspended."

"Gu Yanning, you are already a senior in high school this year."

What annoys Gu Yanning the most is when people talk about his studies.

"I know, I can definitely be admitted to a domestic university. C University recruits students with special talents in art. I plan to participate in self-enrollment, and I didn't waste my time. Why don't you believe me?"

Gu Yanshen looked at him quite unexpectedly, "Since there is a plan, why didn't you tell Aunt Jiang?"

"My mother only knows how to compare me with you, but never asks me what I like or what I want."

Gu Yanning probably held it in for too long, and said it to Gu Yanshen.

"And dad too, why can you go to be an actor and film and do what you like. I have to go abroad to study management? I have no interest in managing companies at all."

Gu Yanshen: "...It's useless for you to tell me, go talk to your father."

"It's your dad too." Gu Yanning glared at him angrily.

Gu Yanshen hadn't entered Gu Yanning's room for a long time, and the signed posters of actresses on the wall were all gone. Before that, Gu Yanshen found it strange that Gu Yanning had never been a fan of male stars, and Lu Wenxing was the first one.

Moreover, when Gu Yanning likes a celebrity, she will post her autographed photo in the room.

But Gu Yanning's eyesight is not good, every fan, the house collapses. Just last year, Gu Yanning changed six or seven idols, all of whom were members of the girl group.

Not long ago, Gu Yanning begged him for Lu Wenxing's autograph. According to his past practice, he should hang the autographed photo on the wall, but he didn't.

There are several oil paintings hanging on the wall.

"I remember that you used to chase actresses, why did you suddenly fall in love with Lu Wenxing?"

"Secret." Gu Yanning turned her head and pointed to the framed oil painting on the wall, "I'm good at painting, right?"

Gu Yan took a deep look around, and his eyes fell on a fan art that was incompatible with several oil paintings. It was a close-up of a player wearing a jersey and shooting a basketball.

Gu Yanshen couldn't help but look a few more times, he knew that Gu Yanning liked an anime character who could play basketball.

But Gu Yanshen doesn't mix two-dimensionality, but Gu Yanning's circle of friends posts fan pictures every day, and it seems that he is still looking for an artist to make an appointment.

And the one in front of me looks very familiar.

——Especially like the line draft he saw on Lu Wen Xing Tablet.

"You drew this one too?"

Gu Yanning did not expect that Gu Yanshen would ask this question, after all, Gu Yanshen has no interest in the second dimension.

"I didn't draw this one. I asked a fairy wife for a draft."

"Which one?"

"Brother, why are you suddenly interested in this?" Gu Yanning was really curious,

"Just ask."

"Oh." Gu Yanning didn't care, and asked her instead. "Are you going to celebrate the New Year at home this year?"

"No, I'm almost leaving."

Gu Yanning was a little disappointed, "Let's go now?"

"Um."

***

Tuesday afternoon.

Lu Wenxing was packing his luggage in the room. He was going to take Xie Chengfei back to City B tomorrow, and he did not forget to remind Xie Chengfei to pack all the things he wanted to bring in advance.

He called Ms. Lu in advance, and when he heard that he and Xie Chengfei were going back, he could hear Ms. Lu's happiness through the phone.

Lu Wenxing is also going to buy some things to go home, and also prepares gifts for Ms. Lu.

Worrying about omissions, Lu Wenxing opened the memo and recorded everything.

Just remembering, the phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number, Lu Wenxing clicked to answer it.

"Hello."

"Hello." Gu Yan's voice with a deep smile came from the other end of the phone.

"Teacher Gu?"

"Very surprised?"

"Somewhat."

Gu Yanshen asked straight to the point, "Are you free this afternoon?"

Lu Wenxing was stunned for a second, he had to go shopping in the afternoon, so he told the truth. "No."

Gu Yanshen was a little helpless, he didn't know if Lu Wenxing was telling the truth, or if he was aware of some deliberate evasion.

"Although this line is a bit like an old idol drama, you are really the first person to reject me three times in a row."

Lu Wenxing: "..."

Think about it really is.

For the first time, I rejected variety shows.

The second time, I refused to audition.

The third time is now.

Lu Wenxing had no choice but to explain seriously, "I really have something to do this afternoon."

"Are you free that night?"

"…Have."

Gu Yanshen was both helpless and funny, this was the first time he had this kind of worry about being rejected. Hearing the desired answer, Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and his serious yet playful tone came from the microphone.

"Then... I would like to ask this very busy Mr. Lu."

"Can I ask you out?"
