Liu Lao attaches great importance to this audition. It can be seen from the beginning that he directly asked Rong Xu to do makeup and change costumes.
The audition of many crews is simply to let the actors perform a scene, no need to change costumes, and no need for makeup, just look at the feeling. Of course, when Rong Xu went to audition for "Chasing the Deer" and "Black Clouds", she also changed her makeup, but Wan Chengyao and Ling Xiao's looks are not as complicated as Zhu Molang's.
The prince's python robe, triple brocade robe, embellished with jewels, are gorgeous and extraordinary.
Compared with Qin Cheng's flying fish suit, Rong Xu's suit is extremely luxurious. Liu Lao looked more and more satisfied, the old man didn't say anything, but the end of his eyes were wrinkled with laughter, unable to hide his happiness.
Led by the assistant director, Rong Xu entered a room not far away. Originally, this was the director's private lounge, but Mr. Liu couldn't take a break while filming, and he didn't want to rest at all, so after the change of actors, the crew directly converted it into an audition room.
Mr. Liu, the screenwriter, the producer, several assistant directors... and Qin Cheng, all sat in the audition room. In the spacious room, Rong Xu stepped into the golden silk python robe, first introduced himself politely, said hello, and then prepared to audition.
Everyone is experienced, no need to say more, just audition directly.
Maybe it's to avoid suspicion, it's true that he does not avoid relatives, but it is not very appropriate for Qin Cheng to appear here as Rong Xu's recommender. So he changed his costume at this moment, and even put on a pair of sunglasses to block his expression and sat beside Mr. Liu.
Rong Xu couldn't see his expression, but faintly felt that the man's eyes were staring at him.
In this small room, there is only a table and a chair in the middle of the room, both of which are carved and hollowed out. There was a simple and ordinary white porcelain teacup on the table. It was an empty cup, which was quietly placed near the chair. This is the audition props for the cast of "Zhuanghualuo".
Zhu Molang's first appearance was in the emperor's bedroom. As a filial prince, he personally served his father to drink medicine and was respectful and humble. At that time, Kong Chao had just returned to the capital after completing his mission from other places. He originally entered the palace and wanted to report the matter to the emperor. Unexpectedly, the emperor was seriously ill and slept for a long time.
When the emperor woke up, knowing his son's filial piety, he held his hand and said earnestly: "Jinyiwei will also belong to Lang'er sooner or later. It's only this time, so there's no need to avoid suspicion next time."
So, Zhu Molang's second appearance was already a year after the plot of the movie, and he appeared directly at Kong Chao's mansion to meet him.
And today, the scene where Rong Xu is going to audition is Zhu Molang's second appearance.
The other audition actors tried this scene before, and Qin Cheng didn't play against them, so for the sake of fairness, Qin Cheng didn't play against Rong Xu either. This scene was performed by Rong Xu alone, but in fact it was a two-person show.
Rong Xu walked to the chair, smiled and said to Mr. Liu, "I'm ready."
Liu Lao nodded: "Then let's start."
Rong Xu lowered his head, raised his head and picked up the teacup. Everyone watched his movements calmly, only to see that he was holding a saucer in his left hand, raised three fingers in his right hand, gently picked up the tea lid, and gently scratched the white porcelain teacup. He was moving very slowly, doing it all slowly, but from start to finish—he was standing, not sitting.
Seeing this scene, Liu Lao slowly sat up straight, while Qin Cheng raised the corners of his lips.
Next, Kong Chao should have returned home and heard that a distinguished guest was coming. He quickly entered the house, but he did not expect that the person he saw would actually be the prince.
As if hearing the sound of a door opening, Rong Xu's movements of brushing the tea foam stopped abruptly. He raised his head and looked forward. With a faint smile in his clear and gentle eyes, he put the teacup down, looked down at the ground, and said with a light smile, "Commander Kong doesn't need to be polite. It's my palace's rudeness to come here rashly today."
After saying this, Rong Xu paused slightly, as if listening to someone else. His eyes slowly lifted, as if the person he was staring at had stood up.
After listening to the other party's answer for a while, Rong Xu smiled: "There are difficulties... Why don't you explain it to Ben Gong?"
Rong Xu's voice was low and soft, like a gust of spring wind, blowing across the lake, making ripples, which made people unable to help but feel good.
The producer and screenwriter looked at the teenager in the middle of the audition room, couldn't help but glance at each other, and nodded in unison. As far as appearance and current performance are concerned, Zhu Molang, the benevolent prince, was played by Rong Xu very realistically, and he definitely passed the test. But I just don't know... Can he show Zhu Molang's true face hidden under Ming Jun
In this episode, Kong Chao hesitated again and again, and only after Zhu Molang took out the order of Jinyiwei from the emperor, did he express his concerns one by one.
Jin Yiwei is only loyal to the emperor, and the prince will be the next emperor. Since the emperor has so much respect for the prince, as the commander of Jin Yiwei, he can naturally report his findings.
Kong Chao's line was very long, Rong Xu listened with a light smile, and even Mr. Liu didn't notice, he actually sat slowly on the chair of the Eight Immortals. Rong Xu raised his left hand and caressed the edge of the smooth and white porcelain cup, moving slowly, the smile in his eyes deepened. He kept raising his eyes, looking at the commander of Jin Yiwei who stood up to answer, and the speed of stroking the porcelain cup became slower and slower.
When his movements suddenly stopped, Liu Lao was stunned for a moment, as if he noticed Rong Xu's sitting down.
I saw that under the bright light, this beautiful young prince smiled lightly, and a dark color flashed in his eyes. He raised the white porcelain cup and took a sip, then raised his head, and smiled softly: "If that's the case, then Commander Kong, I'll trouble you... Find out the truth about this bizarre death of Jinyiwei."
When the voice fell, he gently put the cup back on the table and made a small sound.
The voice gradually cooled down, Rong Xu squinted her eyes slightly, and still smiled: "My Daming Jinyiwei is a royal person. No matter who moves Jinyiwei, it is moving my royal foundation. If you catch that The real culprit behind the scenes must be captured in front of Ben Gong, Ben Gong…”
The phoenix eyes picked up, and Rong Xu's thin lips opened and closed: "Kill Wushe."
This audition is over.
Rong Xu immediately stood up, walked to the center of the room, and bowed to Liu Lao and several others, and the tense and depressed atmosphere instantly dissipated.
The producer was the most involved in the play. The audition ended abruptly, he was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly applauded. Under his leadership, several other auditioners also began to applaud, only Liu Lao and Qin Cheng did not move.
Liu Lao looked at Rong Xu with a complicated expression, where did he have the enthusiasm when he first met.
And Qin Cheng was still wearing the pair of sunglasses, sitting silently among the crowd, as if it didn't exist at all.
After a long time, the screenwriter said: "I think it's very good, Rong Xu, you didn't sit at the beginning, did you want to create the image of Zhu Mo Lang Renjun? He is a polite corporal and has a high prestige in the court. You do this, it's very good. ."
This screenwriter is a famous first-level screenwriter in China. He is in his 60s this year and has a very good reputation.
Hearing the compliments from the seniors, Rong Xu was not overly modest, and said with a smile: "Yes, when I was studying the script this afternoon, I felt that in the image of Zhu Molang, even if he was a servant in Kong Chao's home, he would not be able to. He will sit and wait casually. Jin Yiwei is the most difficult force for him to win. He wants to win over Kong Chao, and of course he wants to give Kong Chao a good impression."
After hearing this, the screenwriter praised a few more words with satisfaction.
Seeing that Mr. Liu still did not speak, the others did not speak anymore. No matter how satisfied they are, the decision is still in the hands of Liu Lao. This movie is almost a word of Liu Lao, with the prestige of Liu Lao in the circle, even the producer will not interfere with his decision.
The room was silent for a long time again, but at this moment, only a low and magnetic male voice sounded: "Elder Liu, what do you think?"
Everyone's eyes turned to Qin Cheng, and then to Liu Lao.
The only one who can speak at this time is Qin Cheng, who has a good relationship with Mr. Liu.
Rong Xu turned to look at Qin Cheng, only to see that the latter also turned to look at him at the moment, through a layer of sunglasses, Rong Xu could not see Qin Cheng's expression, but Qin Cheng could see him clearly. Seeing this, Rong Xu raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at a certain man.
Qin Cheng: "…"
After a while, Qin Cheng took off his sunglasses silently.
The small movements between the two were not discovered by others, after all, their attention is now focused on Liu Lao. I saw Mr. Liu open his mouth for a while, then shut up again, and after hesitating and hesitating several times, the old man laughed helplessly: "I now think that this scene should not be used for audition."
As soon as these words landed, the screenwriter asked in surprise, "Old Liu?"
Liu Lao said with emotion: "I should let you play the last scene directly. This scene is not enough."
Hearing this, the producer suddenly realized: "Lao Liu, what do you mean..."
Liu Lao smiled kindly, but his eyes were full of shrewd light. He stared at Rong Xu with a smile and said, "Let's sign the contract tomorrow. In the next two weeks, all your scenes will be filmed first, Rong Xu, okay? ? I heard Lao Xu say that his play will not start until two weeks later, it really doesn't work, I'll call him and ask him to delay it a little bit! Absolutely no problem!"
The faint apprehension in his heart all dissipated at this moment, and Rong Xu could not laugh or cry: "Elder Liu, Director Xu is a good day and auspicious day specially chosen..."
Lao Lao waved his hand: "Don't ignore him, Lao Xutou doesn't believe this at all, he is just pretending to be outsiders."
After that, things are settled.
Mr. Liu is really a person with a very jumping mind. Before Qin Cheng talked to him, he made the old man forget to urge Rong Xu to change his makeup. Now Mr. Liu chatted with the screenwriter and producer about Director Xu's new work. play. Maybe because he was really old, Liu Lao didn't notice that Rong Xu was still standing in the center of the room wearing a heavy costume.
Qin Cheng pulled away the chair calmly, walked directly to the center of the room, pulled Rong Xu and left.
By the time Mr. Liu reacted, the two of them had long since disappeared. Liu Lao said in surprise: "I'm gone now? Qin Cheng took it away? This is too protective of the cub."
The producer on the side said suspiciously: "I heard that Rong Xu was recommended by Qin Cheng, and they have such a good relationship? Qin Cheng matched Rong Xu in "Black Clouds" again, and then gave him an award? This relationship It's great too…”
In this world, gay marriage has long been legal. Although there are still many heterosexuals in society, there are also many homosexuals. Especially in the entertainment industry, homosexuality is definitely a big catch.
The producer has already started to think in that direction, but Mr. Liu shook his head disapprovingly: "Don't think too much, Qin Cheng and I have known each other for many years, you don't know me clearly. The previous generation of Xu should have asked him to take care of him."
Then the producer remembered a rumor in the circle: Rong Xu is the young master of B City Rong's family.
Everyone stopped thinking about that. After chatting for a while, the screenwriter smiled and said, "This kid is very spiritual, and his performance of Zhu Molang is even better than my writing. I kind of want to change a few scenes..."
The chat between the senior members of the crew continued until one o'clock in the morning and finally ended.
Over there, Qin Cheng had already pulled Rong Xu to remove his makeup, and then took him to the hotel.
When he was about to leave the crew, an assistant director in charge of logistics came over and said, "I have already ordered Rong Xu..."
"Sleep at my place for now." The man interrupted calmly, he lowered his head to look at the surprised assistant director, and said lightly, "I remember that there is only one room left in that hotel. His assistant is in the same room with others and arranges a room for him?"
The assistant director's face was full of "how do you know", and then he nodded quickly: "Well, I can make another room tomorrow. I want that assistant Luo and Xiao Xia to sleep in the same room for the time being, and the next day Give her another room."
Rong Xu watched Qin Cheng communicate with the assistant director, his delicate and fair face was full of smiles, and he didn't speak. He just stood behind Qin Cheng and just watched.
Qin Cheng lowered his eyes and said in a firm tone, "arrange a room for him tomorrow, and he will sleep with me first today."
The hotel booked by the crew of "Zhuanghualuo" was some distance from the film and television city. Qin Cheng's assistant drove and sent Rong Xu and Luo Qian off together. Rong Xu and Qin Cheng sat in the back row, while Luo Qian sat in the passenger seat.
Along the way, Rosie carefully looked at the two through the rearview mirror. On the other hand, Qin Cheng's assistant, I don't know if he has more experience or has been with Qin Cheng for a long time. He has been looking ahead seriously, driving honestly, and never looking behind.
In the back seat, Qin Cheng looked down at the seat backs in the front row, and Rong Xu lowered his eyes to look at the phone.
After watching for a while, and after Rosie's excited eyes moved away, the man calmly raised his eyes and glanced at the passenger seat, and then gently slid his right hand to the right. Moved little by little, got closer little by little, and slipped to the end, touching the slightly cold hand.
Just as he touched his little finger, Qin Cheng raised the corners of his lips and slowed down a little. But he didn't have time to move any more, suddenly! Rong Xu turned his hand over, directly clasped his fingers, and intertwined them!
Qin Cheng: "!!!"
Five seconds later, Qin Cheng's phone vibrated. He took out his mobile phone and found that it seemed to be the wrong one, so he took out another one from his pocket and opened it.
[Rong Xu: Are you wearing sunglasses on purpose to prevent me from seeing your expression?]
Qin Cheng: "…"
This seems to be said casually, but it is clearly to settle accounts after the autumn!
Feeling the tightly holding hand in his right hand, Qin Cheng pursed his thin lips and replied: [To avoid suspicion.]
The less you say, the better.
Seeing these two words, the boy involuntarily raised the corners of his lips. This time, he didn't send a message, he turned his head and looked at a certain man. The halo-yellow street lamps were no longer bright through the brown window stickers, only faintly illuminating the clear and translucent eyes of the young man.
Qin Cheng didn't expect Rong Xu to suddenly turn his head to look at himself, he was a little stunned, looking at the young man's slightly raised chin, as if something suddenly loosened in his heart. The man raised the corners of his mouth and wanted to hug this man into his arms, but at this moment, he could only hold his fingers tighter.
As long as you hold it like this, as long as you keep looking at this person, you can be willing to see forever.
During the ten-minute drive, the two people in the front row did not notice any movement in the back row.
When the car parked in the hotel's parking lot, Qin Cheng picked up the wrong mobile phone and sent a Weibo.
[Lotus Paste and Orange Filling: I like him, I like him, I like him... I like him so much.]
