Start acting today

Chapter 261 Life is like a play
Gong Qiang was forced to come here by the agency and his agent, otherwise he would not have come to audition even though he knew it was a film pitched by Daydream Studio.

The above are just Gong Qiang's reasons to convince himself. The more real situation is that his current situation is very bad. If he doesn't get good projects, it will be difficult for third-tier artists to be safe.

The synopsis of the story of "Daytime Chaser" tells us that this series will become a hit.

Actual synopsis: A tragic massacre turned the originally carefree Guan Yu into a wanted suspect on the run.The twin brother Guan Feng, who is the captain of the criminal investigation detachment...

Introduction in his eyes - starring Huang Baiyou.

"The image is not bad, the proportions of the three courts and five eyes are very harmonious, and the facial lines can be said to be quite perfect. The only shortcoming is the eyes, which have more whites and look a little dull." Chu Yuan began to rate her appearance.

She believes that there are bosses who check professional acting skills and whether the temperament is suitable for Director Zhou, so it is better for her to use her own strengths as a judge.

"Teacher Huang, Director Zhou, Producer Chu, I am Gong Qiang. I have eight or nine years of acting experience and experience in suspense films. The role I am auditioning for today is Luo Qi, the detective detachment captain." Gong Qiang introduced himself.

"What do you think of the character?" Huang Baiyou asked.

"Luo Qi's case handling ability is very good. He can use small clues to profile the criminals, so the captain of the criminal investigation detachment must be fine."

"After talking about abilities, let's talk about personality. On the surface, he is a ruffian who doesn't care about anything, but he has a strong sense of justice in his heart, and he also has a gentle side. He is both an enemy and a friend of the protagonist Guan Feng."

Gong Qiang said succinctly, and after finishing his words, he looked at Huang Baiyou nervously. He knew very well that Huang was the one who made the decision in this audition.

"Where does the gentle side come from?" Huang Baiyou asked.

"Luo Qi made a plan to liquidate the traitors in the police station because the deputy detachment leader was retiring. He repeatedly asked the deputy detachment team not to get involved in this matter." Gong Qiang answered fluently, "This is his gentleness."

"Excerpts from your audition." Huang Baiyou also handed over a piece of paper.

"Understood." Gong Qiang took the A4 paper with both hands.

After reading the script attentively for about 10 minutes, Gong Qiang raised his hands and said yes, with a solemn look on his face, and wanted to show his best acting skills.

When the performance started, Gong Qiang went all out. Luo Qi was the second male lead in the series and he needed this opportunity to turn around.

A few minutes of performance passed by in the blink of an eye, and Director Zhou once again opened his mouth to invite people out.

"What does the boss think of these two actors?" Chu Yuan asked.

"Gong Qiang adds many little moves to the character compared to the previous one, Meng Tao, which is a bit too much and not as good as it is." Huang Baiyou commented.

Zhou Xiaochun said: "I think so too."

"There are two more people behind, let's finish reading first." Chu Yuan felt that the boss was quite fair and did not settle any small scores because of past grudges.

The reason why Gong Qiang was asked to audition was because of various favors and resource exchanges. Anyway, it was just an audition opportunity, but Chu Yuan never thought that the boss was more business-like than imagined.

So is Huang Baiyou doing business?

the answer is negative.

Because he has no impression of Gong Qiang at all. After all, it happened four years ago.

Gong Qiang exited the audition room, his clothes soaked with sweat on his back. He had been observing Huang since he entered.

"Judging from his behavior, he probably doesn't hold any grudge against me, or..." Gong Qiang didn't want to say the next thing, or didn't want to believe it.

Thinking back to the first time he met Huang Baiyou, Gong Qiang looked down at him and didn't think Huang was his opponent at all.

And now there are big actors who need to be "looked up to". "Wang Danli, who is auditioning No. [-], please come in." Gong Qiang called.

Wang Danli is a post-[-]s actor with a background in drama, and has a small reputation in the film and television industry.

"Teacher Gong, what's going on inside? Is Brother Thirteen particularly strict?" Wang Danli asked nervously.

"Teacher Huang has a very gentle personality, but he has a more realistic understanding of the role." Gong Qiang finally said "Come on, come on" to end the chat.

Gong Qiang is no longer as rebellious as before, and has become much more modest. The reason for all this may be that he is no longer popular.

The morning audition ended around eleven o'clock, and Zhou Xiaochun and Chu Yuan on the jury looked at each other.

The reason is Huang Baiyou's words. He said, "Sister Chu, Director Zhou, who do you have in mind?"

After a long while, Chu Yuan said quietly, "I can be an assistant at most, so the selection depends on the boss and Director Zhou."

Director Zhou was anxious because Mao had pushed it to him. He would not bear the blame for the failure of the play due to the casting.

He immediately said, "Although I have been shooting movies for many years, the decision to choose actors is always made by the producer."

How difficult it is to survive in the entertainment industry that makes so many actors and directors not want to shoulder responsibility and honor.

As a director, Zhou Xiaochun can be said to be moving forward cautiously.

Huang Baiyou took away the records of Chu Yuan and Zhou Xiaochun, "Sister Chu and Director Zhou will give the scores. I will go back and think about it, and then determine Luo Qi's place."

Hearing this, Director Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's very good. Needless to say, the boss's acting skills are good, so the actors are also professional ones." Chu Yuan said, "This is the first drama that our Daydream Studio has invested in. Boss, you must do a good job."

Hey, there seems to be something wrong with these words, Huang Baiyou thought.

"I also believe in Teacher Huang's judgment." Zhou Xiaochun's words can basically be ignored.

After returning home, Huang Baiyou received good news. There were more and more students in the Super Analysis Sect, exceeding 100 people, and it had become a trend.

The news must have come from senior brother Wu Zinan.

[There are more and more good actors, and the quality of the corresponding works will go up. This is a good thing for both us practitioners and the audience. ]
For Huang, it is really uncomfortable to play against a young star with poor acting skills. Huang Baiyou does not require young stars to have good acting skills, but they must at least look like actors!
The last time I went to visit Ban Xiaohao, Huang Baiyou was speechless for a long time.

Once you take off the headphones, there is no need to carry them at home when you are not going out. They are just a "cover" in the first place.

Huang Baiyou ate an ice cream, looked at the evaluations of the other two judges, and subconsciously took out a pen and paper.

"Sister Chu only rated her appearance. Wang Danli scored the highest in terms of appearance, and then..."

[The acting is okay, but the fragility is too strong. If I have to choose, I need to correct this aspect. ]
[The overall performance is incomplete. One or two individual movements and expressions are good, but incomplete.It all needs to be played out before the beginning. ]
This is what Zhou Xiaochun wrote. Huang Baiyou synthesized the above content and then gave his own opinions and gave the result, choosing Wang Danli.

Wang Danli has the best appearance among Sister Chu's ratings, and Zhou Xiaochun's shortcomings are that "the drama feels a bit heavy, and the most important thing is that she is not famous."

Huang Baiyou said that it would be easier to deal with the heavy drama, and as for his lack of fame, it would be enough for him. Huang Baiyou sent the decision to the producer and director for communication.

"Sure enough, I chose Wang Danli. I also think Wang Danli's temperament is very suitable." But Zhou Xiaochun would not comment.

"This actor is good. He is not well-known. His salary is small. He doesn't seem to have an agency yet. He seems to be quite profitable if he signs him." Chu Yuan's first reaction was to create revenue for the studio.
