Actors have no vacation

Chapter 36 Auditions

Director Chen was a little surprised when he received a call from Huang Jin saying that he would recommend a person to audition.I think which small company has flexible means and has gone through Huang Jin's path.

In fact, it doesn't make him disdain to make out-of-the-box tricks - he has been in the industry for so long, and he has seen the way around the corners, but at this time, there are only two days before the audition, and it is somewhat out of place to try.

If I get a new script, it is a problem whether I can familiarize myself with the lines in two days. How much can I prepare for the characters?

If you don't understand the quick success of the situation, the result can only be self-inflicted humiliation.

However, in order to save Huang Jin's side, Director Chen agreed to temporarily add a quota.Anyway, it's just an audition, it's up to you to decide whether to use it or not.

The film has attracted much attention from the industry since its inception.Even if Zhang Jingsheng's film hasn't been released yet, everyone already knows that it can't be a loss.Unknown actors all want to come up and get a piece of the pie, and famous ones don't mind having an extra masterpiece on their resume.

This matter has advantages and disadvantages for Director Chen. It is an opportunity and a gamble.From the start of shooting to the release, there is no need to worry about a series of publicity, but the pressure is also great. With Zhang Jingsheng as the center, a top lineup has been assembled. If the works below the passing line are shot, then his evaluation in the industry will fall. .

Therefore, Director Chen was extremely cautious when choosing roles, and everything that was irrelevant became secondary.Those related households got together, and everyone has a relationship, which means that everyone is okay, and in the end, they still have to speak according to their ability.

Regarding the role of [Wu Ze], the role is heavy. If the existence of Zhang Jingsheng guarantees the lower limit of the film, then the upper limit of the film depends on Wu Ze's performance.

As a young villain, Wu Ze, on the one hand, is tyrannical and murderous, and on the other hand, he needs to reduce his sense of presence because he is lurking in the police station to hide his identity.The two very contradictory faces have a lot of dramatic tension, but this also represents the difficulty of the performance.Makes it difficult for actors to choose.

Actors with suitable domestic conditions were sent to auditions by the crew.

Director Chen didn't ask for much, just three good ones out of a hundred people.

But nearly a hundred actors tried it a day, and the results were not very satisfactory.

Young actors have insufficient experience, and the role of a gangster is far away from life. As a result, when some actors perform, they only show fierceness or pervertedness. Floating and unconvincing.

In addition, there are also some actors who talk about various analysis of the characters, from the family of origin to the script mapping, and they have done a good job in reading comprehension, but once they are asked to play, they will collapse immediately.

Although some actors performed well, and even occasionally had exciting highlights, the kind of performance that made him feel amazing or bright, never appeared.

Director Chen is no longer a novice. He has gone through several auditions and auditions and knows that this kind of disappointment is the norm.Like all industries, the actor industry also has well-known assholes, and there are also qualified and mediocre people who can perform well when they meet a good director. Most of them have their own shortcomings.The kind of actor who is close to the "character himself" is really hard to come by.In the normal casting situation, it is basically acceptable to pick them out of the shortlist, and when it comes to filming, it will be polished bit by bit.

Director Chen didn't remember Guan Chen's existence at first.It is too absurd to prepare a complex character in two days.He had so little hope that he almost forgot about it.

Hearing Guan Chen boldly said that he wanted to give comments on the script, he felt even more that the other party didn't understand the situation.

But when Guan Chen expressed his views on the role, Director Chen became interested and was a little surprised.

That's the beauty of auditions, and no one knows what kind of actor will come in next.

When he saw Guan Chen stepping on the mask and revealing those eyes, Director Chen's heart skipped a beat, and there was only one voice left in his mind:
【coming. 】

……

Guan Chen put on the mask, raised his head, didn't say anything, didn't make any expression, just looked over with his eyes, and everyone involuntarily quieted down.

The so-called social status, the so-called wealth, in front of these eyes, can not bring them a sense of security.

The stable order of the society has made these outstanding people never experience danger in their lives, and never experience the feeling that their lives are on the line. The survival instinct that has been inherited for millions of years is instantly stimulated at this moment.

If Guan Chen stood motionless after entering the room before, his sense of presence was weak, and it took a while to be noticed.Now, after putting on the mask that blurs the facial features, Guan Chen's presence is so strong that people don't dare to look away.

They stared at Guan Chen, but Guan Chen didn't pay much attention to them.

After Guan Chen scanned the people and environment in the room, he slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, placed it behind the wall, glanced out the window casually, and then closed the curtains little by little.

No one stopped this process, and no one dared to stop it.

Guan Chen closed the curtains, as if he had put down a little bit of vigilance after confirming that it was safe, and then put his mind on the people in the room, walked around behind them, paced slowly, and looked at them with interest.

Guan Chen's sight was real, and Chen Director and each of them felt sharp teeth hovering three centimeters above their necks, goose bumps on their necks, and their hairs stood on end.

They didn't dare to look back, and they didn't even dare to take a breath.Like extremely dangerous beasts sniffing the fear emanating from them, waiting for them to collapse, whoever can't bear to move first will be bitten and eaten first.

After walking around for a while, Guan Chen stood in front of everyone again, looking at everyone with a "very good, it seems that there is no idiot looking for death".Everyone has a kind of happiness for the rest of their lives.Some people also noticed that there seemed to be another disappointment in Guan Chen's eyes, as if he was hoping that someone could jump out just now.Everyone couldn't help but feel more fortunate.

There was no shouting or nervous laughter, Guan Chen just showed his danger with a playful look and a lightly pouting corner of his mouth.

Everyone in the room has become his hostage.

Guan Chen finished shocking the hostages, and did not focus on the lamb to be slaughtered. He glanced at the staff in the room who was holding the script and was in charge of the words. A cruel smile slowly opened on the corner of his mouth, as if he had waited for a long-awaited one. His old friend clapped his hands with joy and said, "I finally see you, Detective Zhang."

The assistant director in charge of the words was stunned for a moment before regaining his senses. He picked up the script and stammered: "You are already... surrounded."

The director's poor line skills dispelled the dangerous atmosphere in the room at once.The talents behind the long table finally have a point [This is a fucking audition, right?What happened just now? ! 】 real sense.

Director Chen was somewhat regretful.From just now, his entire attention was completely on Guan Chen.Whether Guan Chen was looking out the window or intimidating the hostages, the feeling of strolling in the courtyard reflected a strong self-confidence and a clear mind.

Different from the exaggerated performances of the previous actors, Guan Chen's calmness in controlling the field is more persuasive as a criminal genius.

Director Chen only hopes that the assistant's pairings will be a little more reliable and not affect Guan Chen's state, so that he can watch more of Guan Chen's performance.

"Put down the gun." Guan Chen pointed to the ground with his finger, and said with a smile, "Give you three seconds. If you don't put down the gun, I'll kill one first." After speaking, he pointed to the hostages behind the long table.

The assistant director crouched down in a panic, pretending to fire a gun.

Director Chen sighed.

His assistant played with people before, and he didn't speak professionally, at least his lines could be explained clearly.However, it is now completely abolished by Guan Chen's aura.

This situation is too difficult.

Just when Director Chen didn't know whether to go up in person or not.

"Dong dong dong."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Wow, are you all hungry? I waited for a long time, but no one came. The dishes are all ready." A head suddenly came in.

Zhang Jingsheng complained to the people in the room in a tone that pretended to be angry.

After he noticed Guan Chen in the room and the surrounding situation, he reacted with hindsight: "It's not over yet?"

He immediately lowered his voice and apologized to everyone in a low voice. "Take your time, I'll wait." After that, he planned to leave.

"Asheng, you came just in time!" Director Chen jumped out immediately, ran over to grab Zhang Jingsheng's hand, and dragged him into the room. "Zhang Jiaju and Wu Ze come to play a show."

Zhang Jingsheng looked at Guan Chen, looked at him for a moment, and agreed with a smile.

"Do you want to read the script?" Director Chen asked Zhang Jingsheng.

"Director, are you laughing at me?" Zhang Jingsheng said with a smile that he didn't need to, he had already memorized all the lines.

But Director Chen still whispered about the suggestions for the script that Guan Chen had put forward before, guessing that Guan Chen might act in that direction.

"Very good." Zhang Jingsheng nodded, feeling that these opinions were very pertinent and professional.

"Just act as you said." Zhang Jingsheng said to Guan Chen.

Director Chen was startled, but also very interested.

Director Chen asked Guan Chen, "Are you okay?"

Guan Chen nodded.Also a little relieved.It was really boring to play with the staff just now.

But now, he kind of looks forward to what's next.Originally, I just wanted to do a show, I just wanted to give my opinion, and I would have no regrets if I "examined" what I had prepared.Now being able to play against a big guy like the male protagonist is an unexpected gain.

Guan Chen doesn't have the timidity of a rookie actor to a top actor.He was eager to try, even a little impatient.

But remembering the senior brother's advice, not to be excited, not to be excited, Guan Chen slowly calmed down and prepared to welcome Zhang Jingsheng in the best state.

Zhang Jingsheng is undoubtedly a talented actor.

In just a breath, Guan Chen, who was standing on the opposite side, felt the change in the other side. That was almost the veteran policeman Zhang Jiaju.

"I finally see you, Detective Zhang." Guan Chen said.

Zhang Jingsheng's eyes narrowed, his hands were like holding guns, and he aimed at Guan Chen.

Guan Chen's body jolted, and he felt a burst of electricity from his head to the soles of his feet.I felt the difference in performance status.This feeling was different from the thrill of walking a tightrope in the first class. This time, he seemed to be stepping on an irregularly shaped balance beam, and he stepped on it firmly.

Playing with Zhang Jingsheng, Guan Chen felt that he had briefly sunk into another world.
