At 8pm Austrian time on Thursday, Chen Minhao and Kang Hui arrived in Vienna by plane.
One day earlier than the scheduled audition time.
Austria, located in central Europe, has a temperate broad-leaved forest climate. In early November in Vienna, the sky was overcast and a little damp.
After landing, Kang Hui was a little sleepy. As soon as she got off the plane, she took a taxi to the hotel to relieve jet lag. Chen Minhao, on the other hand, wore a black windbreaker and a thick scarf, walking on the streets of Vienna.
Vienna is a well-deserved capital of music, with countless music events and song and dance gatherings held here. Even if you wander aimlessly on the streets, you can hear and see everything related to music in the streets.
Chen Minhao walked alone to the blue Danube River.
The lights are decorated and the stars are shining.
It would be a bit desolate to enjoy such beautiful scenery alone.
Chen Minhao sighed and returned to the hotel.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Chen Minhao and Kang Hui made an appointment to have breakfast in the hotel restaurant.
"How was your shopping yesterday?" Kang Hui asked casually.
"The scenery is beautiful, but I feel lonely. This city is suitable for interesting souls to have an unforgettable encounter, but not suitable for wandering alone." Chen Minhao said with a yawn.
Chen Minhao and Kang Hui calculated their time and showed up at the audition location for "Love Before Dawn" on time.
Chen Minhao reported his identity and phone number in English at the front desk.
The front desk staff took Chen Minhao to the second floor, pointed to the door of a room, and said: "All audition actors will be waiting in this conference room. We will call people in order, and you will come out after we call you. "
"Okay." Chen Minhao nodded.
Chen Minhao pushed the door open and entered the conference room. He was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the competition to be so fierce.
There are at least twelve or three Chinese or Chinese people sitting here, all of them are handsome and in their youth.
Although not as handsome as me.
With this confidence, Chen Minhao unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, then found an empty chair and sat down, put on his headphones, and turned on NetEase Cloud Music.
Chen Minhao had no intention of chatting with the other auditioners. Now everyone in the room was his competitor. Communicating with them now is a complete waste of time and energy.
After waiting for about two hours, a staff member called Chen Minhao's name.
The staff took Chen Minhao to a new room and handed Chen Minhao a new audition script: "You have ten minutes to prepare."
Chen Minhao smiled, this director is a bit interesting.
The original audition script was just a cover. Before the audition started, a new audition script was given and a surprise assessment was conducted.
Chen Minhao scanned the latest audition script and found that although the script was basically very short and did not have many lines, the scene was full of tension and required high acting skills from the actors.
[Background: After Li Changgeng had a brief conversation with Selina, Li Changgeng got off the train at the Vienna Railway Station with other passengers. But after getting off the car, Li Changgeng returned to the car and walked towards Selina.
Scene: Carriage.
Li Changgeng: I have an idea that I think is very crazy, but if I don’t tell you, I may regret it for the rest of my life.
Selina: What
Li Changgeng: I want to continue chatting with you. I'm not sure if you feel the same way, but I think we have a lot in common.
Selina: Actually, I have similar feelings.
Li Changgeng: Really? Very good! Now I have an idea, you get off the bus in Vienna and let's see the city together.
Selina: (surprised) What
Li Changgeng: Come on, I believe this will be an unforgettable experience. bring it on!
Selina: (laughing) What do we do
Li Changgeng: I don’t know. All I know is that I'm leaving on the 9:30 flight tomorrow. I didn’t have money to stay in a hotel, so I was going to travel around. It's going to be a lot of fun if you come with me. In the meantime, if you think I'm a psycho, you can always go back to the station and catch the next train to Paris.
Think of it this way. Jump ten to twenty years into the future, okay
You get married, but your marriage no longer has the original passion. You start to blame your husband. You think of all the young men you met in your life. What do you think would happen to you now if you had chosen one of them? I'm one of these guys. I am here. You think about it this way, you travel through time back to the present and see what you've lost. It will be a great relief to you and your husband to realize that you have nothing to lose. I'm just as much of a loser as he is. Unmotivated and boring. You made the right choice and you are happy.
Selina: Wait for me to take off my bag.
Next scene: The two get off the bus together in Vienna.]
Judging from the script, the male protagonist decided to take action because he had a good impression, and used a "wrong" style of "persuasion" to invite the female protagonist to get off the bus in Vienna with him. The screenwriter depicts an image of a free and optimistic Chinese youth who bravely expresses his feelings.
In just a few sentences, the plot was pushed to a climax.
This is an important turn for the better, and it is also a plot that can make the audience think - if you are traveling and meet someone of the opposite sex whom you can talk to and have a crush on, how would you choose
Say goodbye silently? Or leave your contact information to contact me later? Or should he bravely invite her to get off the car and play with him in a strange city
If you take the initiative, you may gain beautiful memories and even unforgettable love.
Of course, this performance is extremely tense and difficult to perform.
You must show your enthusiasm, but not embarrass the other party; you must show your favorability, but not make the other party feel like a gangster; you must show your impulsiveness, but you must also convince the other party with "reason"; The performance must be tense, but at the same time, it is also necessary to grasp the "degree".
Ten minutes later, the staff took Chen Minhao into a new room.
There were five people in the room sitting behind the audition table, and they all looked serious.
Sitting in the middle is a white woman in her early thirties. She wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses and looks very capable.
She said: "Chen, can you introduce yourself?"
Chen Minhao introduced his basic situation.
The white woman asked, "Are you still a singer?"
A middle-aged man next to her said to her: "I know him. Chen is a great singer. You must have heard his "See you again"."
"Chen who sang "See you again". Oh my god, I didn't expect you to be an actor!" The white woman's eyes widened and she said, "I like your "See you again" very much!"
"Thank you." Chen Minhao grinned.
There was a brief silence among the five people behind the audition table.
"Although I really like your "See You Again", the audition standards will not be lowered." The white woman smiled sheepishly: "Start your performance."
Chen Minhao nodded.
