Superstar Aspirations

Chapter 31

Views:

The audition site for "Black Clouds" is set in S City, and it will be shot here in the future.

Although the crew was only going to shoot a low-budget biographical film, there was no ambiguity in the set props. Since Rong Xu joined the crew, he has seen many staff constantly busy, arranging scenes and making props. When he entered the audition room, he saw six people sitting in the front row at a glance.

Starring, screenwriter, producer, investor and director have been scheduled.

This is usually the composition of an interviewer for a normal audition.

However, in the audition room for "Black Clouds", there were six people sitting. The woman on the far side, Rong Xu, didn't know her. She wore a pair of black sunglasses and a light hemp-colored scarf covering half of her face, which only made people feel elegant, but couldn't see the real appearance.

His eyes stayed on the man for a moment, and Rong Xu quickly turned his eyes away. He smiled and said hello to all the interviewers, and then listened to Liang Dao, who was sitting in the center, and said, "Your image is very good, and your temperament is also good. Rong Xu, just audition, you should be third in the draw. Duanxi, we are looking forward to your performance."

Director Liang spoke in a very polite tone, with a business-like attitude. But this is also of course, Rong Xu got news the night before that the crew of "Black Clouds" not only handed him an audition invitation, but also sent invitations to two first-line niche students - Jiao Jingshan and Ling Zhen.

Jiao Jingshan himself is from S City. I heard that he had completed the audition yesterday, and his grades were very good. And Ling Zhen just came back to China from the UK, and it is said that he can only come to S city to audition this afternoon.

Therefore, Rong Xu was the second person to audition.

Listening to Director Liang's words, Rong Xu politely responded, and then without talking nonsense, he walked directly to a wall of props set up in the center of the room. He first picked up the guitar placed on the ground, tried the tone a little, and then reached out and ruffled his hair even more.

This action caught the eyes of the six interviewers. Only Director Liang and the mysterious woman moved slightly and sat up straight.

He took a deep breath and let it out slowly. When the boy opened his eyes again, there was a little confusion in his eyes, but the corners of his lips were slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile. He leaned back against the wall, pressing the strings with his left hand and fiddling lightly with his right.

The next moment, Qingyue's warm singing voice emanated from this seemingly thin young man.

The guitar is a very easy-to-learn instrument, and arguably one of the best instruments to get started with. As long as you want to learn guitar, you can play a tune in a few months, and many boys are rushing to learn guitar: because girls love guys who play guitar.

Just like now, the bright and dazzling light hit the boy's body, slowly lengthening his shadow, reflecting a lonely swaying shadow on the wall. He sang earnestly and loudly, and seemed not to be at all timid, but with some dodging eyes, he never dared to look up.

Director Liang looked at Rong Xu's feet thoughtfully, and suddenly found that he was standing with his feet close together, very restrained!

Not only that, the boy's muscles were still tensed, and if he looked closely, he could find that his fingers when he plucked the guitar were also slightly trembling. He's nervous, he's apprehensive, or... he's shy!

"Summer is over, wait for you for another year."

"Black clouds fly over the sky, and when I look back, I meet your smiling face..."

What is first love

Many fans of Ling Xiao said that they heard their first love from his songs.

"Black Clouds" has a seemingly gloomy name, but it's a very tender ballad. The boy fell in love with a girl, and they met tacitly every day in front of the fountain. On the last day of summer, the boy came to the fountain again, but did not see the girl who had never spoken.

So he waited another year, until the next summer. Then on the last day of summer, he saw the sky was obscured by black clouds, and he sang the song. He had no hatred, no sadness, just happy that he had such a good memory.

Then when the black clouds slowly flew away, he turned around and met the bright and bright smiling face again.

The melody of this song is very simple, and the lyrics are not too complicated and gorgeous, but it is precisely such simple and simple things that move people the most. When Ling Xiao sang "Black Clouds" with his clear and clean voice, every fan couldn't help smiling, thinking of his first love and a previous relationship.

There is no sadness, only gratitude: thank you for letting me have such wonderful memories.

No matter how versatile Rong Xu is, it is impossible for him to surpass Ling Xiao in his voice. He also sang songs in his previous life, released many records, and played a pivotal role in the music world. However, when Rong Xu heard the song "Black Clouds" with his own ears last night, a voice that spanned more than 20 years came from the speaker, which made him unable to help but feel moved, and made him feel sorry for the other party.

In the last life, Rong Xu himself made his acting debut, and then he sang when he acted and sang, and also won several gold awards for songs. His voice is not that unique, but he paid enough, he used a wealth of skills to make up for his innate mediocrity, and spent years figuring out the key points that fit his voice and developed a unique singing voice.

When singing "The Voice of War" with Tang Menglan that day, Rong Xu also wanted to try the vocal method that he had been using in his previous life, but unfortunately his voice didn't fit and he almost sang a wrong note. Fortunately, he corrected it in time. But this time for the audition, Rong Xu has been practicing for a few days, and now he can sing the voice of his previous life.

With a voice similar to his previous life, and using the vocal skills he found in his previous life practice for several years, he is very familiar with all this, and he will never lose to any singer.

The audition room was silent, everyone was listening to the song intently, and the teenager standing in the center of the room seemed to relax slowly. His feet were no longer so tightly together, his fingers were no longer trembling, and his voice was getting louder and louder, as if singing in a spacious and empty subway entrance.

In order to make his songs heard by more people, he overcame his shyness and came to the crowded subway station. In order to be heard, he sang loudly and made his voice the theme song of every salaryman who came and went during the morning rush hour.

Gradually, there was a hint of joy on his face, he closed his eyes, and sang even more happily.

The melodious and brisk singing is like a clear spring hitting the rocks, and the running water is screeching. The cheerful and bright mood has formed a warm color in the air, which can almost directly infect everyone.

He sang with sincerity and sincerity, and he sang happily and comfortably. When the song ended with the sentence "Maybe one day, we can go to the last stop of our life", suddenly! He opened his eyes, smiled and looked at the interviewers not far in front of him.

The messy and intertwined black hair fell on the pair of clear eyes, covering his full forehead, but let the clean and expectant eyes hide in the hair. The flickering hope in his eyes made Liang Dao stunned for a while. When he came back to his senses, the young man had sung the last word, then stood up and bowed.

In this scene, Rong Xu's audition is over!

After all, Director Liang has been filming for more than 20 years. He quickly calmed down and said, "It's good, you can go back first."

Rong Xu was not like some rookie actors who hurriedly asked the director about his audition results, but nodded with a smile, bowed politely, and said, "Thank you, then I'll leave first."

Such an attitude caused the six people in the room to look at him a few more times. After confirming that Rong Xu had really left, the producer clapped his hands and said, "In terms of mentality, this Rong Xu is better than yesterday's Jiao Jingshan. It's even better. Yesterday, Jiao Jingshan didn't act as calm as him, and it's hard to tell by comparison. Jiao Jingshan has been out for eight years, and this Rong Xu has only debuted for a few months."

"He played well." Director Liang said.

Everyone nodded unanimously: "He sang much better than Jiao Jingshan yesterday. He sang well and performed very well."

Before the audition, Director Liang said that Rong Xu had drawn the third question, but in fact, where is the audition question? Here, the crew played a trick, all their audition topics were to have the actors perform the scene where Ling Xiao sings "Black Clouds" at the subway mouth, no exceptions.

In this regard, Rong Rong is excellent in everything, and even the producer who originally distrusted him and thought he was a newcomer was full of praise, but the screenwriter said seriously: "The looks don't match."

The crowd fell silent for a while.

Ling Xiao is not ugly, but he is not good-looking at all, he can only be said to be a public face. His temperament gave him extra points, and his character also made his friends think he was very good, but Rong Xu's appearance was too outstanding, and it was difficult to be associated with Ling Xiao.

After thinking about it, the investor said, "That Ling Zhen in the afternoon doesn't quite match his appearance, right?"

The screenwriter said, "Ling Zhen is not as gorgeous and outgoing as this Rong Xu. This Rong Xu is a little too flamboyant. But the most suitable is Jiao Jingshan. His acting skills have always been good, and his appearance is not very good in Xiaosheng."

The five people talked for a while, and even Director Liang was slowly persuaded by the screenwriter, but at this moment, the mysterious woman who sat on the edge without saying a word slowly got up and walked towards the door.

Director Liang was stunned: "Xin Rou?!"

The mysterious woman turned around slowly, finally raised her hand, and took off her sunglasses. When they saw those eyes, the other five people in the room were all stunned. I saw that the bright and soft eyes continued to have a layer of light water. These eyes were extremely beautiful, and the eye sockets were a little red, and they seemed to be holding back tears.

If Rong Xu was still here, he would definitely be able to call out this person's name: He Xinrou.

Fifteen years ago, Wen Xuan had just debuted, and the most popular actress in China at that time was He Xinrou. He Xinrou won three Golden Phoenix Awards, one Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, and one Berlin Actress. She was once a popular goddess, but in recent years, she has gradually stopped acting and rarely appeared in public.

Some people say that she is out of breath, afraid of waterloo at the box office of the next movie, so she dare not film again, but her fans ignore this statement and none of them leave.

But at this moment, He Xinrou stood here and said in firm words: "Rong Xu is Ling Xiao, Jiao Jingshan can't do it, and I don't want to watch the next audition. I ask, let Rong Xu play the role. Ling Xiao!"

That afternoon, Rong Xu and Luo Zhentao stayed in S City to wait for the audition results. If the audition results pass, then he naturally doesn't have to leave, he needs to follow the crew directly to prepare for the start and filming. And in city B, a man has already received a text message.

[Xu Jin: Rong Xu passed the audition, and He Xinrou called him by name.]

Seeing the first half of the sentence, Qin Cheng nodded with satisfaction, and when he saw the second half of the sentence, he frowned and replied with a text message: [Why did He Xinrou call him? During the audition, how did He Xinrou react to him, did she make any moves that crossed the line?]

[Xu Jin:…]

But after a long time, Xu Jin called directly: "You think too much, don't you realize that He Xinrou has always liked Ling Xiao? I thought you had attended several awards ceremonies with the two of them before. , I should have discovered it long ago. But Ling Xiao doesn't seem to like He Xinrou, this time "Black Clouds" was planned by He Xinrou's organization, she should have been hit by Ling Xiao's sudden death in recent years."

Hearing this, Qin Cheng gave a faint "Oh", as if the person who made the fuss just now didn't exist at all.

Xu Jin didn't think too much, and said subconsciously: "It seems a little too much for you to care so much about Rong Xu, Mrs. Qin asked you to pay attention to his private life? And even if He Xinrou asked him to play by name only because he liked him, then It doesn't matter. How to say He Xinrou is only thirty-eight years old now, and she is well maintained, although Rong Xu... Hey, he seems to be a little younger, but if the two are in love, it's fine."

The sharp eyes squinted, and Qin Cheng's icy voice came over the receiver: "So you like sister and brother love."

Xu Jin: "...I have a girlfriend, okay!"

Qin Cheng: "Oh, it turns out that you are already a sibling."

Xu Jin: "My girlfriend is two years younger than me!!!"

Qin Cheng: "Oh."

Xu Jin: "..."

Suddenly being so cold, what are you trying to do? ! !

Xu Jin wanted to say something more, but when a certain man replied to him, there was only one sentence after another, "Oh". Following the "Oh" of this sentence, Xu Jin unexpectedly heard a trace of... murderous aura!

I wanted to hang up the phone quickly to report safety, but just when Xu Jin was about to hang up, he heard the man's low and magnetic voice slowly ringing: "When did they turn on the phone, it seems that they are directly staying in the S city? You can book it for me tomorrow. Zhang's plane ticket to S City, I'll negotiate with the crew first."

Xu Jin trembled in his heart: "What do you want to negotiate?"

Qin Cheng said as a matter of course: "Negotiate the role I want to play."

Xu Jin: "..." Why do I always have an ominous premonition...

With this weird feeling of "It doesn't seem right, but if I ask the exit I always think it will reveal something wrong", Xu Jin quickly booked the ticket. After hesitating to the end, he also ordered one for himself to prevent the always irresponsible eldest young master from doing anything terrible.

At night, Rong Xu was notified by the crew of "Black Clouds" and confirmed that he passed the audition. He didn't react much, but Luo Zhentao happily opened a bottle of wine to celebrate.

When Jiao Jingshan got the result, he was just disappointed for a while, and then put the matter behind him.

In a five-star hotel in S City, a handsome young man was so angry that he threw the cup to the ground and smashed it into pieces.

"Rong Xu? How could it be that Rong Xu? Last time he played the rubbish "Ambush" that actually had a much higher rating than my "Summer Reality", forget it, that's the problem of the bad script, and It doesn't matter to me. But why did he get the role now? What am I inferior to him? You say, what am I inferior to him!"

The assistant hurried to clean up the debris on the ground.

Ling Zhen sat on the sofa angrily, and when he looked up, he saw the opening song of "Chasing the Deer" flashed by on the TV—

There is actually that Rongxu again!

"Turn off this broken TV! What is there to watch "Chasing the Deer"!"

The little assistant nodded in agreement and went to turn off the TV again.

Ling Zhen was sitting on the sofa, why did he feel stuffy? He asked, "Have you seen "Chasing the Deer"? How did he behave in it? Isn't it bad?"

The assistant hesitated for a while and said, "The role he played only appeared tonight, and I haven't seen him yet..."

"Hehe, what's so good about "Chasing the Deer", look at what Rong Xu is doing. He doesn't know what to do, but he can squeeze out Jiao Jingshan and me, and take the lead role in "Black Clouds" by himself. It's really amazing, this The newcomers of the age are amazing..."

The assistant wanted to argue, but looking at Ling Zhen's arrogant and conceited expression, he could only silently lower his head and continue to clean up the pieces, and then thought in his heart: Actually, "Chasing the Deer" is really pretty, and there is this in the trailer of this episode Rong Xu's appearance seems to be very good...

At this moment, on the land of China, countless viewers are watching the "Chasing the Deer" in front of the TV.

I saw a small boat floating on the river on the TV screen. The young heroic female general saw the building from a distance. She narrowed her eyes and ordered her men to row faster. Finally, they got ashore and walked to the building.

The bright and sassy female general raised her head and looked at the big characters on the plaque, and said coldly, "Wangqiu Pavilion. This is... the Wangqiu Pavilion where the one who wins ten thousand wins the world?"

The next moment, everyone walked in together!

The author has something to say: Qin Chengcheng: Acting, acting together~ Rongrong, let's act together~! The baby didn't deliberately want to act with you, the baby didn't want to act with you, you see, the crew invited the baby ~ 啾mi =3=

Rong Rong: ... Really can't apply for a switch
