Chapter 300 Three major colleges and universities, open auditions! (Please subscribe!)

After the audition ended, Hu Jun and Deng Chao sat for a while and then left.

Duan Yihong went to the office to sign the actor contract.

Lin Xuan handed him the complete script of "White Night".

"The crew will start filming at the end of the month. During this time, you can study the characters at home. Remember to make sure you don't lose the script."

"Don't worry, Director Lin, I'll leave first."

After Duan Yihong left, Lin Xuan returned to the office.

Chen Hong took out the list of characters and wrote the names on the paper.

“Right now, the actor who plays the female lead Zhou Shutong is still undecided.

What do you think of Chen Hao? She has become very popular recently, and I know you too. "

"It's too charming. I'm still going to find someone new to play Zhou Shutong."

"Hot? It's your first criminal investigation drama that you wrote, directed, and starred in. The topic itself is hot."

"Don't worry about choosing a new member. Leave it all to me."

Lin Xuan:…………

However, those born in the 80s seem to have lost their generation, and few are good at it.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"Bad idea, letting her play Zhou Shutong will ruin the show."

"Aren't you looking for scolding? Outsiders think you are discriminating against the Magic City."

"Let Tong Yao play Zhou Shutong!"

"If you really want the popularity, I have a good suggestion that can make this show nationally known in an instant."

Chen Hong said in surprise: "Choose a current student! His acting skills are not impressive at all. What do you think?"

The Tong Yao incident has come to an end, and Zhang Mo, who hit someone, was fired from the drama.

"Look, you're just thinking nonsense. The audience needs fresh blood. I'm just fulfilling their wishes."

In the afternoon of that day, Chen Hong contacted the leaders of Beijing Film Academy and Shanghai Theater to discuss the audition for the role.

Chen Hong rolled his eyes and was speechless.

Because Huang Dingyu couldn't tell whether it was the overlord who was forcing the bow or whether he was willing to do so, he was released in accordance with the principle of acquittal, but he was also fired from the drama.

In the past two years, few newcomers in the industry can surprise me. I want to see if Beijing Film and Television has any good prospects. "

…………

"You are the only one who believes in me." Chen Hong murmured a few words and asked, "Then how are you going to find someone? Open audition, or audition."

Thinking about it carefully, he hasn't done the job of training actresses for a long time.

Men's boring desire to win and lose, and the hype is all about scoring high and low.

"Okay, I can rest assured that you can do the work."

Tong Yao continued to study at Zhongxi Opera despite being infamy.

"Too few, haven't you noticed? The newspapers these past two days have been full of news about "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and the bearded guy is really stunned."

"If nothing happens to Tong Yao, her appearance is indeed quite suitable. In fact, there is another reason why I want to find a new person to play the role.

"Okay, then I'll communicate with the school. By the way, why don't you go to the theater? Do you look down on my alma mater?"

If Lin Xuan joins the battlefield at this time and lets her play Zhou Shutong, the popularity will be so high that even ten Zhang Jizhongs won't be enough for him.

However, there are good and bad degrees of popularity, and with his status as a celebrity, he can't play the "black and red are also red" style.

Except for Zhou Shutong, she singled out all the characters with more than five scenes in the play who had names and surnames, so that there were a total of eight age-appropriate characters.

"Of course it's for hype! Bearded Zhang's choice of Yang Guo caused a stir in the city, and the popularity of "White Night" was completely suppressed.

"It's too far, I'm too lazy to go."

As for the acting issue, the core of this drama is me, plus Duan Yihong at most, the two female characters are just the vase. "

Chen Hong sneered: "Newcomer? The old man is tired of seeing it and wants to change his taste?"

Lin Xuan poured a cup of tea and sat on the sofa.

"What advice?"

Lin Xuan handed over the work to Chen Hong and stayed at home as the hands-on shopkeeper.

Chen Hong somewhat agrees with this reason.

"Hahaha...I'm just kidding."

There are so many outstanding actresses born in the 70s, so grab a lot of them.

Zhou Shutong and Gao Yanan have very few scenes. Even if there are a few scenes that require some acting skills, Lin Xuan can provide them with on-site guidance.

"Auditions are too troublesome. There are no public auditions, and there is no sound. Let's go to Beijing Film Academy and China Theater to select people."

Lin Xuan, a lazy guy, doesn't want to go to the Magic City, so he can only let the theater students come to the capital.

All three schools were interested in Chen Hong's proposal, especially the Chinese Opera.

After the Tong Yao incident, the school's reputation was tarnished, which had an impact on this year's enrollment.

China Drama urgently needs new hot topics to offset the negative impact of the Tong Yao incident.

After many discussions, everyone decided to hold a large-scale audition event.

Eight roles, 60 students, from each school, see which school gets more roles.

The audition location is in the Experimental Drama Building of China National Theater.

After the matter was settled, Chen Hong told Lin Xuan the news.

"Awesome, Sister Hong. You turned a role audition into a large-scale event."

Chen Hong smiled and said: "It's all your credit. If "White Night" was not your drama, they would not be willing to cooperate."

Organizing large-scale events is very troublesome, and the school is willing to cooperate because the director and star of this drama is Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan's drama is bound to be a hit, which is very attractive to the school and students.

Not to mention the special prize of this event, but the female lead in "Lin Xuan's New Drama" is beyond the reach of many celebrities in the industry.

Even if you can't get the lead female role, you can just play a small supporting role in the drama, and you will get much more attention than those street dramas.

Moreover, TV series are replayed more often and the overall income is more considerable.

Chen Hong handed the news to a well-connected newspaper and announced the news on the official website.

Facts have proved that there are quite a lot of netizens who have nothing to do.

Less than five minutes after the official website was updated, someone moved the news to an online forum.

[What does this announcement mean? Are you planning to hold auditions for the new drama again? 】

[See clearly, this is not an audition, but a selection from three major universities. 】

[Eight characters, so many? 】

【Fuck! Even the leading female lead gave it to me directly. Lin Xuan was really big at this. 】

[It’s just Lin Xuan’s basic operations. Huang Shengyi, the Xuan girl, is the number one female selected from the audition. 】

[So, the second generation of Xuan girls is about to appear. 】

[If I were a student from one of the three major universities, I would probably go crazy with excitement. 】

[Yes, once Lin Xuan is selected, it will be like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate. 】

[With so many newcomers who have never acted before, how can this show be good? 】

[Huang Shengyi is also a newcomer, isn't "Xiu Chun Dao" good-looking? 】

[There was only one Huang Shengyi in "Xiu Chun Dao", but this time there are eight newcomers. 】

[Worrying too much, the remaining seven are just extras, and their roles are probably similar to those of special actors. 】

[Every time Lin Xuan's new drama project is approved, some people despise it. After being slapped in the face for so many years, why doesn't he have a long memory? 】

…………

Netizens guessed right.

When the school teacher told the students the news, they were almost crazy with excitement.

In the dormitories of the three major universities, students were shouting and dancing like they were at home.

Lin Xuan’s new drama!

Heroine!
Putting these two keywords together is like a dream to them.

The audition role profiles had just been released, and they immediately rushed to the school computer room to search for relevant film and television drama roles.

The students who had a good relationship started rehearsing and rehearsing overnight.

Beiying girls dormitory.

Liu Yifei was lying on the bed, wearing headphones on her head and holding a professional book in her hand.

After the Spring Festival, she first went to the set to finish filming the solo scene in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and then returned to school to attend classes with her classmates. It's not that she likes to study, it's that her mother will nag her all day long when she stays at home.

Instead of doing this, it would be better to go back to school, at least it would be more comfortable.

Liu Yifei became famous too early and rarely attended school, so she didn't have many close friends.

But she is also happy to be free and enjoy life to the fullest without being disturbed.

Unfortunately, her leisure life has been disrupted since the news of the audition spread.

Among the students at Beijing Film Academy, she and Huang Shengyi both debuted as "Xuan Girls".

Huang Shengyi is away from school filming, so only Liu Yifei is left.

She had cooperated with Lin Xuan a lot, and these students wanted to get some useful information out of her.

"Qianxi, what hairstyle does Director Lin Xuan like? Straight or curly?"

"The character introduction says that Zhou Shutong is a new member of the police force. Should he make his makeup a little purer?"

"Sissi, can you call Director Lin and ask him to reveal some inside information?"

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes after hearing this.

These people pretended to be aloof at school and secretly said a lot of bad things about me.

Now you have the nerve to ask me for help, you are really thick-skinned.

And each school only has twenty places.

There's a good chance you won't even make it past the qualifiers.

Liu Yifei was so annoyed that she made some random remarks.

When people outside heard that Teacher Liu's small class had started, they all crowded into her dormitory with notebooks in hand.

There was no place to stay in the small dormitory.

People who didn't hear the class asked people who came out of the dormitory.

How could such confidential information be shared casually?

Those who had first-hand information just made up answers.

As a result, gossip about Lin Xuan's preferences began to spread all over the place.

Liu Yifei only said it once, and then put on her headphones to listen to music and read a book.

I can't stay in this school anymore, so I'll leave as soon as possible tomorrow.

The next day.

News of the auditions made the front pages of entertainment newspapers.

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was pushed to the second edition.

Zhang Jizhong looked at the newspaper in his hand and couldn't laugh or cry.

Lin Xuan's hype ability is really better than his own.

With just a few moves, he easily surpassed him.

Great!

After the audition news was exposed, Lin Xuan's cell phone kept ringing.

There are many second-generation celebrities and second-generation rich people in the three major universities. They contacted Lin Xuan through various connections, hoping to arrange for their people to join the group for filming.

Lin Xuan was too lazy to pay attention to them and refused directly.

Even small roles in TV series have to be grabbed.

It can be seen that these people are not powerful people.

But what made Lin Xuan curious was that he actually received a call from Yang Mi.

The little girl became a little restless when she saw the news about the audition for new candidates.

She hesitated for a night before she mustered up the courage to call Lin Xuan.

"Zhou Shutong? What are you thinking? It definitely won't work."

"She's a recent graduate, and you haven't even graduated from high school yet."

"Don't compare yourself to Liu Yifei, her situation is different."

"Don't even think about "White Night", there is no role suitable for you.

Well, you go back and pay attention to the news about the open audition of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and I will arrange for you to play a small supporting role. "

"I don't have many roles, but I'm pretty good at it."

"You're welcome. You can thank me later when you make money from filming."

…………

A few days later, it was dawn.

Lin Xuan got up two hours early.

Shower, change clothes, have breakfast, put on makeup.

Today I am going to attend an actor audition at the Chinese Theater Company. This is a public event, so I need to be fully prepared in all aspects.

At around seven o'clock, Duan Yihong, Chen Hong, and Yan Danchen arrived at the courtyard one after another, and then set off for the Central Theater together.

The four of them are the judges for this audition, and they all happen to be related to the crew.

Lin Xuan and Chen Hong often participate in actor auditions and are very familiar with this matter.

It was the first time for Yan Danchen and Duan Yihong, and they had no idea what to do in the audition.

Lin Xuan explained: "The audition is actually very simple. This time we are auditioning with makeup. After the student comes on stage, you first see if his image and temperament match the role.

Then he looked at his performance, his line skills, and finally he gave a score based on the overall situation, with a perfect score of 100 points.

Get rid of half the students in the first round of auditions, then do the next round in the afternoon, it's that simple. "

Yan Danchen clenched his fists: "It sounds easy, but I'm even nervous."

"You are from the star class of 96, how can you be nervous? This audition is just like giving a lecture to the juniors."

"How can I have such ability?" Yan Danchen was about to cry but had no tears.

She was preparing to take the postgraduate entrance examination, so how could she be qualified to give lectures to students, in front of teachers and leaders?

Lin Xuan really hit the shelves this time.

The Chinese Opera campus is in Dongcheng District, not far from the Siheyuan.

When the car drove into the school, leading teachers from the three major universities were already waiting on the steps outside the experimental drama building.

This is Lin Xuan's first time stepping into the gate of Chinese drama, and everything around him feels quite novel.

In addition to teachers, professors, and leaders from China National Theater, there are also people from Beijing Film Academy and Shanghai Theater Academy.

This event is really going to be a big party.

After chatting for a while, everyone walked into the drama building to prepare for the next audition.

Soon, two buses carrying students from Beijing Film Academy and Shanghai Theater University drove into the campus.

Chinese opera has become very popular in recent months, and everyone is quite curious about this institution.

Students from the Beijing Film Academy did have the opportunity to visit, but it was too far away to go to the theater.

The street opposite the school has been occupied by Lin Xuan fans.

They were dressed in red and crowded together, holding Lin Xuan's posters and light signs high in their hands.

In order to grab a good seat, many people came here last night and queued up.

"As expected of Lin Xuan, he has so many fans."

"I'm so envious. I really hope I can have this day."

"Among Lin Xuan's fans, the proportion of women is quite high."

"Nonsense, he's so handsome, it's strange that he doesn't have many female fans."

Everyone put their heads against the windows and looked at the crowd outside with envy.

Entering the Chinese Opera campus, the students got off the bus and lined up in order, and the leading teacher took the roll call and called their names.

After all the lists were confirmed, the three teams lined up to go to the small building next to them to change clothes and put on makeup.

If it were an ordinary sorority party, they would already be having fun at this time.

But today is not for socializing.

Everyone they meet around them is their competition.

The dressing room was quiet and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

This audition is a life-long event.

None of them dared to relax and were highly nervous.
