After more than 70 auditions a day, the director team and screenwriters are already very tired.
The audition is basically a matter of considering the expressiveness of the actors for this AI script. After all, unless there is a very good studio to analyze the AI script, everyone’s scripts are similar, and the actions they perform are also similar. There will be something new.
So when Li Zhetian appeared in the audition room, everyone probably guessed that he was the number two male this time.
Li Zhetian's family invested 50 million star coins in "Blood War" this time, accounting for half of the crew's funds. In fact, the director gave Li Zhetian the role of male lead at the beginning. After all, Li Zhetian has become more popular recently, and his acting skills are not bad. Being a leading actor is more than enough.
However, no one expected that Li Zhetian himself fell in love with the role of male number two.
It can only be said that the other actors who came to audition for the male lead were really unlucky.
— This idea didn't change dramatically until audition No. 71 came to audition.
When a tall and handsome young man appeared at one end of the room, the director Wang Long's eyes lit up immediately, his eyes widened in surprise, and he looked at him carefully for a long time. The clothes of the other party are really close to the character of "Chu Chen". He looks handsome, has a dignified temperament, white face and red lips, like a spoiled young master.
After Chu Yan came to the front of the stage and introduced himself, Wang Long was so excited that he asked seriously, "What clip did you get?"
Chu Yan nodded with a smile, and said, "I got the fourth paragraph, Director Wang."
Then there's the audition.
When Chu Yan said that he had drawn the fourth paragraph, Director Wang was taken aback for a moment, and then sighed with some regret. The fourth segment is a very difficult one among the ten audition segments. This segment is not a solo scene, but a rivalry scene.
The actor who will play Chu Chen's elder brother, Song Song, has already been decided. He is a fairly good second-tier actor in China. He has already recorded a holographic image for the fourth part of the audition. When someone extracts the fourth part, Then you can show it and play against the auditioners.
There were also people who got the fourth part of the audition before, but their results were really tragic.
There is no live-action show, only a holographic image, and the expression, movement, speaking speed, and tone of the other party are completely unpredictable. There have even been cases where the auditioner has not finished speaking, and Brother Chu Chen has already started to speak. .
With a feeling of regret, Director Wang and the others looked up at the stage.
When the word "start" fell, something seemed to change with a "click", and the young man looked at the direction of his left front with firm eyes and stubborn expression. Obviously he was dressed elegantly at this time, but he bent his waist slightly, clenched his teeth, and looked unyielding.
At this moment, the tall and strong figure of Xuan Song suddenly appeared on the stage.
Under the illumination of the holographic image, the back is a little illusory, but the demeanor and movements of the characters are very detailed. Xuan Song's face was livid, his brows were tightly frowned, and he seemed to be suppressing his deep anger. He glared at the young man in front of him, and said every word: "You bastard, you still have the face to come to see me?! The last time the family law Haven’t you had enough yet, you actually dared to provoke that kid from the Chen family this time, you broke one of Chen Er’s arms!”
After saying this, Director Wang immediately looked at Chu Yan who was at the side.
But what surprised him was that Chu Yan didn't respond at all, still staring at the person in the virtual image with a stubborn gaze, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't!"
The actor who played the role of Xuan Song naturally didn't know what was going on, he just recorded it in advance, but after Chu Yan's words, he suddenly clenched his fists, looked at the boy with a look of hatred, and said: : "You don't have anything? Didn't you break Chen Er's arm? Didn't you shout something in the street, 'I am the second young master of the Chu family, and you are the one who hit Chen Er'? Chu Chen, how could the Chu family have you like this?" A scum!"
After the words fell, under the surprised eyes of everyone in the director's team, the young man on the stage suddenly trembled, and he staggered forward a step, as if he had been whipped!
This plot is not carefully written in most people's AI scripts. After all, in the text script, here is Su Song educating Chu Chen, and then there is an old housekeeper holding a whip with tears in his eyes, loving him The second young master imposed family law.
Xi Song didn't do it himself, and the old butler couldn't record a holographic image specially for the audition, so what he wants to show here is entirely up to the auditioner's own intentions. The previous auditioners have been playing with Xi Song all the time. , did not care about the non-existent third party at all.
But now, Chu Yan's performance has obviously shocked the director team.
Especially the screenwriter, when he saw this scene, he was taken aback for a moment, then looked excitedly at the stage—
This is the scene he wrote!
And on the stage, for some reason, a trace of sweat oozed from the boy's forehead. No one knows how this young man did it, but his current state perfectly corresponds to the plot in the script.
"After ten lashes, you go back to your room and you are not allowed to go out for a month!"
"Chen Er humiliated me, he called me a waste, he called me an embroidered pillow!"
"Aren't you trash, aren't you an embroidered pillow?"
"you… !"
"When will you be able to lead the Chu family's army to the battlefield, when will you be the real good boy of my Chu family!"
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Chu Chen's heart hard. In the eyes of the director team and the screenwriter, they saw that the boy's slightly bent back suddenly straightened. He turned around and walked back step by step seriously. His steps were slow and staggered, but he was still stubborn. He landed and refused to look back.
And behind him, the holographic image of Xuan Song tightly closed his eyes, leaving a tear.
It should be the old housekeeper who asked, "Young master, why do you need it?" So Xuan Song looked at Chu Chen's back and said, "I am eighteen years older than him. I watched him grow up. Sooner or later, he will be one step ahead of him, and when I die... what should he do?"
The lighting on the stage was very ordinary, and he didn't pay attention to any shadows, but Director Wang frowned tightly, looked at the young figure with a straight back with a meaningful look, and finally said nothing.
Why did the boy bend slightly at the beginning? Because he is being whipped!
Why did he suddenly straighten his back at the end? Because he was stubborn, because he was stubborn, because he didn't want his elder brother to see him in a mess, he thought he was never wrong!
Compared with this young man's performance, those auditions before are nothing but imitations.
When the real Chu Chen appeared, those low-quality products just now paled in comparison, and he could no longer pretend to be a young Chu family with a dandy appearance and a tough heart, and also the future iron-blooded general of the country!
…
The afternoon sun was a bit hotter than that in the morning, Zhou Hehui waited outside for about an hour, and finally waited for Chu Yan who came out of the corridor. He looked the boy up and down, and finally his eyes stopped on the other's calm and steady expression.
Zhou Hehui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did you get scolded?"
Chu Yan looked at him in surprise: "Brother Zhou, so you have so little confidence in me?"
Zhou Hehui led Chu Yan towards the parking lot and said, "Since you haven't been scolded, then this role is yours."
Zhou Hehui's voice was definitely firm, without any hesitation, as if what he said was an established fact.
Hearing this, Chu Yan raised the corners of his lips calmly. Although he took off the military uniform that belonged to Second Young Master Chu, he did not remove his makeup, so the already delicate face was drawn into three dimensions by the skillful hands of the makeup artist at this moment, dazzling against the backdrop of the setting sun.
"Brother Zhou, do you know Li Zhetian?"
Chu Yan's words made Zhou Hehui pause, and he was slightly stunned: "Li Zhetian, I know him, what's wrong with him?"
The young man shook his head regretfully, sighed and said, "That's such a pity, Brother Zhou, this time I met Li Zhetian in the audition. I'm afraid your hopes are going to be dashed. The Li family invested half of the funds in "Blood War". Probably the role of male number two will fall on Li Zhetian's head."
When Chu Yan said this, his expression was lost, as if it was really a pity, but there was no regret in his lowered eyes, but the light was slightly restrained, as if he was waiting for something.
Chu Yan was not disappointed, and after only a brief hesitation, Zhou Hehui said with certainty: "Don't worry about this, even if your acting skills may be worse than his, as long as you are not so bad, this role is yours." of."
After getting into the car, Zhou Hehui sent Chu Yan home. Before leaving, he also told Chu Yan not to think too much, the company would definitely praise him if it agreed to support him, and Li Zhetian's company would not take it seriously.
Chu Yan believed that Tiansheng would not take Li Zhetian seriously.
But watching Zhou Hehui go away, the smile on Chu Yan's lips disappeared suddenly, he closed his eyes, and looked deeply at the back of the hover car.
But now, Tiansheng is going to grab the role for Chu Yan and Li Zhetian...
This shows that in Tiansheng's plan, his status is definitely not low, at least it is more important to praise him than to offend Li Zhetian.
Just squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, Chu Yan let out a low laugh and temporarily put all these thoughts behind him. After he got home, just like what Zhou Hehui said, the crew of "Blood War" sent him an employment notice that night, and he signed a contract with Chu Yan within three days, and hired him to play the second male lead of "Blood War" Chu Chen. crew.
Everything went quite smoothly. Seven days later, Chu Yan and Zhou Hehui came to the "Blood War" production team that had been in operation for four days. They had just established their footing when they saw the swaggering, high-spirited man sitting among the crowd. Li Zhetian.
