Entertainment starts with variety shows

Chapter 172 Casting
On the weekend, Fang Jing came to work in the company on time. As the screenwriter of Zhu Xian, he had to participate in the casting, and this time there were 50 interviewees.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw a bunch of people chatting in groups, and some of them were dressed in ancient costumes. There were many handsome men and beautiful women. Those who didn't know thought they were ancient lovers running over.

"Hello, Teacher Fang Jing."

"Hello, Teacher Fang Jing."

"Hello there!"

"Mr. Fang, do you think I'm suitable for acting in your play?"

"Teacher Fang has worked hard. I work for Jiahang Film and Television. Please take care of me in the future."

"Teacher Fang, my name is Yulu, and I'm from Guizhou Province. I'm a junior in Chinese opera. I like acting very much. You..."

A man and a woman were sitting in the sofa area not far away. Not only did they not get angry when they saw Fang Jing being surrounded, they also greeted these people with a smile.

"Long Jie, why don't we go say hello too? Fang Jing seems to be quite talkative."

"Sit down obediently, adjust your state, and play your best in the audition later." The manager sneered, "What's the use of being easy to talk, you think he is stupid, if he can play a role with a few flattery , the crew is already full."

"I didn't expect to get into the role by saying good things. I just wanted to make a good impression on him. Maybe there will be extra points in the audition later."

The manager hated iron and steel, "You stupid, why are you joining in the fun at this time? There are so many people, how can he remember who is who? And how do you know that he is not angry now, so many people are chattering around him early in the morning Who will be comfortable?"

What the manager said was true. It's not unreasonable for Fang Jing to feel angry now. It must be true that he feels uncomfortable.

This group of people was also not polite at all, while talking, there were a few who called him brothers and invited him to have lunch. It was obviously the first time they met, and they seemed to be very familiar with each other.

"Everyone, I'll go up first, the director is still waiting, everyone work hard, I hope we can meet in the crew after a while."

After speaking, Fang Jing ignored the enthusiasm, pushed away the young beauties in front of him with the back of his hand, and hurriedly caught up with the elevator without looking back.

"Sorry, I'm late." Fang Jing pushed open the door of the interview room, where several casting directors were chatting with their heads down.

"It's not too late, it's still more than ten minutes before it starts. Here's the actor profile." An assistant director took out a stack of resumes for him.

Each copy is three or four pages long, and in addition to personal introductions, there are stills of roles that have been played before.

Each interviewer had a computer, Fang Jing opened it, and there were short videos numbered in advance, which were voted by the actors outside, and the content was nothing more than clips of previous plays.

Some are purely amateurs with no acting experience, and the recorded content can only be self-reporting or martial arts performances standing in front of a white cloth.

"Since the number of people coming is almost the same, let's start!" said an assistant director.

Today, including Fang Jing, there are four people as interviewers, two assistant directors, and one head of the production department of Huanrui.

The staff went out to make arrangements, and after a while a young man came in.

"Hello, teachers. My name is Cao Liang. I am 26 years old. I graduated from the acting department of Nortel. I have acted in four plays since I graduated. They are..."

After listening to the introduction for 3 minutes, Fang Jing didn't speak, but looked at the first bald man on the left, the head of Huanrui's production department.

In order to promise to get a role for Tang Yan's employees, he was looking for this person the day before yesterday, and he agreed as soon as he opened his mouth without any difficulty.

"Turn around and go to me to have a look." The bald brother remained expressionless, and said after a few seconds, "From the side."

I looked at the man, then at the material in my hand, and nodded after a while, "The shape is not bad."

After the first round, the assistant director said, "Which character are you going to interview for?"

"Shen Tiandou, a disciple of Qing Yun Sect."

"There is a plot here, you can act it out." The assistant director asked the staff to take a pre-printed A4 paper. "You have five minutes to prepare."

This casting made Fang Jing feel that the company is much more serious, at least more serious than the last time he chose Tomb Raiders' Notes. It seems that it is different with a serious and responsible director team.

After 5 minutes, the young man began to perform. As expected, he graduated from a major with solid basic skills. He didn't have any facial expressions or lines. Fang Jing secretly compared himself and found that he was not as good as others.

He has only studied acting for a short time, and he doesn't act too much, so he still has a long way to go before becoming a real actor.

"Stop! That's right, what do you think of Fang Jing?"

"can!"

No decision was made immediately, and the assistant director left a sentence to wait for the notice to let people go out. The specifics depend on whether there are more "excellent" ones in the future.

……

Interviewing twenty people in one morning completely broke Fang Jing's perception of the Academy of Acting. It was a mixed bag of good and bad.

I can't imagine that this person came from a major. No wonder Huang Lei had such a temper when he was young.

On the contrary, some Jiang Hu wild roads gave him more surprises. They were not from a major, but their acting skills were remarkable.

There were a lot of people in the cafeteria at noon, afraid that eating would not be peaceful, so Fang Jing ordered a meal to find an empty small conference room to eat.

Even though it’s a cafeteria meal, it tastes good, and it’s different from employee to employee. Ordinary employees only have three dishes and one soup, but he has four dishes and one soup, as well as braised pork.

"Oh, Fang Jing, why are you here? Please take care of me in the future." Shen Hao passed by, walked a few steps and came back to say hello, shaking the Zhu Xian script in his hand.

"No, it's you too this time?"

This old Shen seems to be hiding something, what is the condition of the family?Playing dramas one after another, there are mines?

"What is this? I fought for it based on my strength, okay?"

Seeing Fang Jing staring at him, Shen Hao was helpless after a few seconds, "This time I didn't bring money into the group, Fatty Xiong didn't dare to accept it, but he recommended me, I didn't expect the company to agree, it's really unintentional. "

In other words, Shen Hao was lucky. This time the company mobilized, all the actors participated in the battle, and it is said that several trainees also went.

Some time ago, he became popular with an urban idol drama, and now he has a name in the eyes of the company's senior management. He is no longer a little transparent, and this time he has been promoted.

"Who are you playing?" Fang Jing took a sip of the soup without looking up.

"Fenxiang Valley disciple Li Xun."

"Not bad! There are a lot of scenes, come on."

This role can be regarded as a male seven or eight, and there are many roles in it. If it is played well, it will also shine.

"Fang Jing, you wrote the novel, help me analyze the characters, I'm afraid the acting won't work well." Shen Hao took the opportunity to sit down.

Inside the company, it is not a secret that Fang Jing is the author of Jade Dynasty, and Shen Hao also rewarded Jade Dynasty with 10 yuan back then, which is still fresh in his memory.

"What are you afraid of? If you don't have confidence, just look at Li Yifeng. Which do you think is better in acting?"

"How can I compare? Isn't this a joke?"

"Be a little more confident!"

"Well, I think he's better than me."

"to be frank!"

"It's about the same, but he's actually a little more handsome than me."
