Chapter 74 The Chubby Fairy Chang’e (please read it!)
The chubby girl walked into the room.

Lin Xuan looked at her and felt a little familiar.

The girl has a round face and looks quite cute.

However, there is too much flesh on her face, which covers up her original appearance, and her body management is even more terrible.

Lin Xuan looked at it and shook his head silently in his heart.

pass!

"Hello teachers, I am a senior student in the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy. My name is Yan Danchen."

The girl stood in the middle and introduced herself.

After hearing this name, Lin Xuan remembered it.

No wonder it looks familiar, this is not Chang'e from "Lotus Lantern".

He took a few more glances and could vaguely make out what the future looked like.

I remember how many people were amazed by her role as Fairy Chang'e.

Even Jiao Enjun plays the role of Erlang Shen and is her licking dog in the play.

But now Yan Danchen is just a chubby girl, and he can't take it if she offers it to Erlang Shen.

Lin Xuan silently expressed regret in his heart.

Yan Danchen didn't know that she had been sentenced to death by Lin Xuan, and continued:
"I have participated in the movies "Carry Dad to School" and "Flower Season and Rainy Season", and won the Huabiao Award for Best Newcomer..."

Listening to her talk about her achievements, Lin Xuan nodded slightly.

As one of the three mainland film awards, the Huabiao Award is still very important.

After introducing himself, Qian Yanqiu asked: "You want to audition for Yingyu, right?"

"Yes director."

"Then talk about your understanding of this character."

Yan Danchen was already prepared, nodded and said:

"I think Yingyu is very simple and very complex, and she has too many good qualities.

First of all, she is loyal. In order to help the prince, she did not hesitate to commit suicide and fell into a brothel.

Secondly, she was brave enough to risk her life and marry her enemy.

Then she was very smart and used the "bee trick" to drive away Liu Chuanlin who affected her mission.

In the end, she was also kind and found out that Liu Chuanlin was not dead, so she replaced him with a fake corpse and healed her injuries.

I think Yingyu is a brave and resourceful girl with a sweet heart. "

Everyone had no reaction after hearing this and just nodded silently.

There is no big problem with this understanding, at least it shows that she has done her homework beforehand.

Moreover, Yingyu is just a small supporting role. As long as the actor can understand it to this point, the rest depends on her acting skills.

"Then you will perform a part."

Qian Yanqiu opened the script and leaned over to ask him: "Lin Xuan, which part is better for you to watch?"

"Just this section, it has a lot of lines and a crying scene." Lin Xuan pointed to one section and said.

Yingyu's scenes in the second unit are not small, but most of them are normal dialogues, and nothing can be seen from the acting.

The only place where her acting skills can be used is when she cries to the master about the young master's cruel behavior after the "bee plan" is successful.

"Okay, just do this part."

Qian Yanqiu circled the paragraphs of the script with a pen, handed it to her and said, "I'll give you 5 minutes to prepare."

"Ok."

Yan Danchen took the script and sat aside to read it carefully.

After a few minutes, she stood up and said, "Director, I'm ready."

"Okay, then let Director Lin play with you."

Qian Yanqiu drank tea and handed the work to Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan didn't mind the trouble and nodded with a smile, a little eager to give it a try.

This is his first time acting opposite an actor as an audition officer.

Yan Danchen glanced at Lin Xuan and nodded.

When she first came in, she was a little surprised to see the word screenwriter written on Lin Xuan's desk.

After all, he is most famous for his role as a Hong Kong actor in the film crew and his god-level looks in two recent costume dramas.

Based on his prejudice against handsome guys, Yan Danchen subconsciously thought that Lin Xuan was just a loser.

I didn’t expect that he could actually write scripts.

A small thought flashed by, and Yan Danchen sat on the chair and began to brew his emotions.

A few seconds later, two lines of clear tears flowed from his eyes, and he said aggrievedly: "The young master has teased me several times since I walked in.

The day before yesterday, he tricked me into his room and wanted to do something evil. I struggled to escape until I escaped.

How many times have I told you that you just don’t believe it? You should believe it after seeing it with your own eyes today. "

She cried and sobbed, and her tone changed from aggrieved to angry.

Lin Xuan gave her a message: "This treacherous son who is worse than a beast actually wants... me in the garden!"

Yan Danchen's tone was sad, angry and desperate:

"What can you do? He is your biological son. I have just passed the house and this is how I will live in the future."

Lin Xuan was furious: "This treacherous son is worse than nothing. I...I will kill him! Otherwise, this matter will not spread and ruin the reputation of my Liu family."

Hearing this, Yan Danchen stopped crying and said in a panic:
"What nonsense are you talking about! How can you kill your own son?"

Lin Xuan said angrily: "I don't have such a son!"

Yan Danchen was completely panicked, his expression was horrified and at a loss: "You...you..."

At the end of the performance, Yan Danchen stood up and bowed to Lin Xuan to thank him.

She originally thought that Lin Xuan made his debut halfway and his acting skills must be average.

I didn't expect that her script skills were so good, even better than hers who came from a major.

How did he practice?

Yan Danchen was a little curious.

Several creatives on the stage exchanged opinions with each other.

After a while, Qian Yanqiu said: "Well, the acting was good."

"Thank you Director."

Qian Yanqiu pointed to the bedroom and said, "There is a dressing room inside. You can put on your costume and try it out."

This is the last step of the audition to see how the actor's makeup looks.

Just put on the costume and make-up, take a few steps, say a few lines, and see if the character fits the character's image.

This happens all the time in cast auditions.Some actors are excellent in their lines and acting, but the makeup effect is not good and does not match the character image.

Some actors are terrible at acting, but when they put on costumes, they feel like their characters come alive.

Yan Danchen responded and followed the female stylist into the back bedroom.

After the people left, they started discussing.

The director, producer, and other crew members all thought Yan Danchen was good.

He has a professional background and is qualified in acting and lines.

The image is gentle and cute, with a plump figure, which is also in line with the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty in history books.

Although I haven’t seen the effect of her costume yet, it shouldn’t be bad.

"Lin Xuan, what's your opinion?" Qian Yanqiu asked.

Lin Xuan carefully thought about the situation during the scene just now, and thought of her chubby face.

In the end, he insisted on his opinion, shook his head and said: "No, it's too fat!"

Qian Yanqiu was stunned for a moment, and then retorted: "What's wrong with being fatter! The Tang Dynasty originally regarded plumpness as beauty."

Lin Xuan was a little helpless, wondering if Qian Yanqiu was crazy.

What you are filming is a TV series, not a documentary. There is no need to follow the history books in everything.

You should also consider the current public aesthetics to some extent.

If according to his logic, Di Renjie was a fat man, then Wu Zetian would also have to find a fat man.

And Li Yuanfang, a military commander eats a lot and exercises regularly, so how could he be thin?

Lin Xuan turned his head and said seriously: "Director Qian, I know what you mean. But hers is no longer Fengrun, but..."

Click!

Before he could finish speaking, the bedroom door handle was turned open.

Lin Xuan was startled and quickly shut up.

Zhicao, she changed clothes so quickly, maybe she didn’t hear what she just said.

Yan Danchen changed into his costume, moved lightly, and appeared slowly.

The eyes of several main creators also followed her movements.

They all admired in their hearts: So beautiful.

Yan Danchen tied up her long hair and put on decent light makeup on her face.

She took off the regular clothes she wore for the audition and put on an embroidered tube top and a light orange long skirt with wide sleeves. Between her frown and her smile, she looked like a beauty from the Tang Dynasty.

Even with his chubby face, Lin Xuan couldn't help but take a second look.

Qian Yanqiu was very satisfied with the makeup effect. He kept nodding and then asked him in a low voice: "How do you like it? She looks good even if she is fat."

Lin Xuan also began to waver in his heart.

Yan Danchen is worthy of competing with Wang Yuyan, a hot woman.

This costume looks so beautiful on her.

Although she is a bit chubby, her face has not grown, and her body is not yet complete, she is already very beautiful.

Just when he was struggling, Yan Danchen glanced at Lin Xuan, with some hostility in his eyes.

"Sorry, I just heard that the screenwriter said that I am fat. It doesn't matter. I can lose weight."

Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Lin Xuan, who looked confused, and then laughed crazily.

Qian Yanqiu was stunned for a moment and burst into tears from laughter.

Let you be venomous and say bad things about people behind their backs, now people will hear you.

Lin Xuan was a little embarrassed and started to make up for it:
"I don't think you are fat. I mean if you were thinner, you would fit the character's image. After all, Yingyu is a martial artist..."

"I know! Give me a month and I can lose twenty pounds!"

Yan Danchen interrupted him, with a plump round face, serious and serious.

Losing weight is not easy, and losing twenty pounds in a month is even more difficult.

But everyone looked at her slightly angry expression and subconsciously felt that this girl could do it.

Now that everything has been said, Lin Xuan has no intention of eliminating her anymore, and the director and producer like her quite a lot.

He turned to look at Qian Yanqiu and nodded slightly.

"Okay, then the role of Yingyu has been decided."

Qian Yanqiu decided to give her the role and added:
"Your role is relatively low to begin with. I will give you one month to lose weight. I will write this request into the contract."

Yan Danchen was beaming with joy as he almost won the role.

She bowed slightly to the director: "Thank you, director, and thank you to the teachers."

After changing clothes and signing the contract, Yan Danchen came to the room again and waved goodbye to several creatives.

Before leaving, he gave Lin Xuan a special look.

"Hehe, you must have offended someone. If you say something bad, you have to say she is fat. Girls don't like hearing this the most."

Qian Yanqiu joked happily when he saw that he was deflated.

"She's being cautious. She's already very fat. I didn't want to cast her just for the sake of the role."

Lin Xuan felt a little unhappy at being treated with hostility for no apparent reason.

He was very serious when choosing roles, without any selfishness.

…………

Two days later, casting for the crew ended.

Except for the special actors who were directly found locally, all other roles were decided and contracts signed.

Of course it was Wang Jinhua who came to negotiate the contract between Lin Xuan and Fan Xiaopang.

Qian Yanqiu took the script and tried his best to get an investment of 500 million from Yang Ma.

But the money is still a bit stretched to make a high-quality 30-episode costume drama.

Therefore, in terms of remuneration, the crew is quite pressurized.

Teacher Liang Guanhua has the highest salary and the most roles in the crew. The salary is 30, which is about [-] per episode, which is slightly lower than the market price.

Lin Xuan's role is similar to his, and his popularity has soared during this period, so the market price of [-] per episode is only reasonable.

However, considering the crew's financial constraints, Lin Xuan only received 30 yuan, which was the same as Liang Guanhua's salary.

But he was also a screenwriter. Wang Jinhua helped him get a screenwriting fee of 35 yuan, and the final total salary reached [-] yuan.

Fan Xiaopang doesn't have many scenes, only about two episodes in total.

With the TV series "Huan Zhu Ge Ge 2" and "Little Li Fei Dao" becoming popular.

Her market price has also risen, reaching 1 yuan per episode.
