Chapter 141 Support
Early the next morning.
Leyan was woken up by the alarm clock at 8 o'clock. She practiced her lines as a habit. She originally planned to go downstairs to have breakfast with Li Yiran, but she thought that she had been tired for a month and would definitely not get up so early after two days of rest. After filling up my stomach briefly at home, I went to the audition location.
The audition location is at Mr. Huang’s company.
After they arrived, they were taken to a large performance classroom by the front desk. There were already several good-looking young boys waiting outside the performance classroom.
Seeing Le Yan coming, these young actors and the staff nearby were all shocked.
Le Yan is the most popular male artist right now. He also wants to face this crew? Which role are you facing?
Because the official audition hadn't started yet, Ni Zhen found a deserted place to tell Le Yan some of the things he had learned so far.
"The tentative title of this drama is "The Best of Them". It has been in preparation for a while. The main actors have been basically confirmed. However, many actors have auditioned for the roles you are going to try and no one has been selected. However, the filming is about to start. Recently, It has to be settled.”
Leyan looked at the waiting crowd in the distance.
It turns out that the competitors are not just the ones here, there have been many people who have tried before?
"Do you understand the cast and crew of this drama clearly?" Le Yan asked again.
Because it was Teacher Huang who introduced him, Leyan didn't ask anything about the situation before agreeing to come to the audition, because he believed that Teacher Huang would never harm him.
But he was still curious about what kind of TV series would make Teacher Huang insist on him participating.
Ni Zhen turned his back to everyone and said:
"This TV series is jointly produced by iQiyi and Mr. Huang's company, and produced by Mr. Huang's company. The director is Kong Chao, who has filmed many successful youth school dramas. The quality is absolutely guaranteed. The male lead has been confirmed a long time ago. , is also a young actor with both popularity and strength, named Tang Boyu."
"Ah, I've heard his name." Leyan answered immediately.
Ni Zhen nodded:
"He has won many newcomer awards in the past two years and is very popular. Isn't it surprising that you have heard of him."
"Then I don't know." Le Yan said seriously, "I only know that he is in the drama and is our enemy."
Kyoto Film Academy and China National Theater have always been incompatible with each other.
After dinner, the students often bring out the current stars of the two schools to compare.
Tang Boyu's name is often mentioned, and Leyan remembers that he is a senior this year.
Ni Zhen had become accustomed to Le Yan's magical brain circuit, so he collected himself and continued to introduce:
"The choice of hostess was just recently decided, Geng Xinyao. Your senior sister."
"Being from Jingying?" Le Yan's eyes lit up.
Ni Zhen nodded:
"She's older than you all."
Leyan is 19, Tang Boyu is 21, and Geng Xinyao is 26 this year.
However, this is nothing new in the entertainment industry. There are actresses who are still playing the role of young girls at the age of 60.
Seeing that the basic information was almost introduced, Ni Zhen told Le Yan:
"The production team of this drama is excellent, the script is excellent, and the actors are also excellent. In addition, iQiyi is the producer. It will definitely be an S-level platform project when it is launched. You must perform well and strive to win this drama." Chance to win.”
Trying out a play is different from an audition.
There is no prescribed situation for the audition, and it is mainly based on a comprehensive evaluation of the actor's appearance and acting skills.
The audition will restore a specific scene in the script, and the focus of the test is the suitability of the actor and the role. It is not about who can act well, but who is more suitable.
Hearing Ni Zhen's words, Le Yan became serious:
"But I haven't read the script. How can I act in it soon?"
Ni Zhen comforted him and said:
"The teacher will explain the play to you after you enter. Just listen carefully to their description."
In fact, many actors do not know the information about the role they are going to play and the plot during the audition. It all depends on the on-site director's arrangements, but at least they need to get an overview of the script beforehand.
He collapsed when he learned that Teacher Huang hadn't even shown Le Yan the script. Isn't this too childish?
But he and Le Yan had the same idea. Teacher Huang would never harm Le Yan.
Now I can only comfort myself in this way.
A few minutes later, there was a faint noise at the end of the corridor.
Everyone turned their heads and saw a dozen people walking towards them talking and laughing from a distance.
There were men and women, old and young, but most were in their thirties or forties.
The young actors in the corridor began to whisper:
"Are these teachers participating in the audition?"
"It's impossible. How can there be so many teachers participating in the audition? Four or five at most."
"Yeah, I've never seen such a big battle."
"Look! Is that Teacher Huang?!"
I don't know who shouted, and everyone realized that the fat man in the crowd, who was held in the middle like a star holding the moon, was Huang Gao, wasn't he?
As this group of people entered the large acting classroom, the actors who came to audition were finally confirmed. So many people wanted to watch them audition today?
Many of them are mature actors who have been in the industry for several years and have participated in many auditions for the crew, but there were not so many people involved in the previous auditions.
This was Le Yan's first time participating in an audition. When he saw the people around him whispering in shock, he turned to Ni Zhen and asked:
"what happened?"
Ni Zhen frowned and said:
"Auditions usually only involve the director, assistant director or executive director and actor coordinator. There were too many people here this time."
He seemed to see a well-known makeup artist in the crowd
Why did even the makeup artist come to audition for the role?
This is just an audition for a supporting role, not the leading role.
Such a big battle?
Moreover, Huang Gao is the developer of this TV series. How could any developer directly come to the scene to participate in the casting?
If you want to interfere with the casting, you should give instructions to the director behind his back.
After a few seconds, Ni Zhen slowly turned his head to look at Le Yan.
Huang Gao really loves Leyan.
At the same time, in the performance classroom.
Teachers are making final preparations before the audition begins
"Teacher Huang, sit in the middle!" Director Kong Chao said to Huang Gao flatteringly.
"No, I just came over to take a look, you guys are busy with your work!" Huang Gao moved a chair and sat on the outside.
"Where can I go? Teacher Huang must sit in the middle."
People in the room hurriedly carried Huang Gao to the C position and sat down.
Huang Gao complained with a smile:
"You really don't need to worry about me, I just came over to take a look when I have nothing to do."
"Then you sit in the middle and watch!" Kong Chao handed Huang Gao a bottle of water.
For young directors like Kong Chao, management is their father.
His father liked him, so he gave him a big budget to shoot the film.
If his father doesn't like him, he will starve to death.
Moreover, Huang Gao is not only the employer, but also a senior in the industry. No matter what aspect is considered, he must sit in the middle position.
Huang Gao looked around and asked Kong Chao:
"So many people came to audition today?"
Don't blame Ni Zhen and the young actors outside for being surprised. Even Huang Gao didn't expect so many people to come today.
"Not only today, there are so many functional departments involved in actor auditions in normal times. Choosing actors must be evaluated and considered from many aspects. Without anyone, it is not comprehensive enough." Kong Chao enthusiastically introduced to Huang Jie, "Producers, screenwriters, my Two assistants, chief cameraman, actor coordinator, costume team leader, makeup team leader, props team leader, and creative director.”
When Kong Chao learned that Huang Gao was going to participate in today's audition, he treated today as a military parade preparation.
You must show your best and most professional side to the employer’s father!
Huang Gao looked at Kong Chao with a half-smile.
How shrewd the old fox was. He could tell at a glance that Kong Chao was pretending to be with him.
"Then let's get started?"
"Let's get started." Huang Gao unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip.
Having so many people here saves him a lot of trouble. Auditions are done individually.
Because there were many people participating in the assessment today, including Huang Gao, every actor waiting outside looked very nervous.
Except of course Leyan.
He would practice vocalizing in front of the window, do physical training, and imitate small animals. He treated it like a school.
About an hour later, the staff called out Leyan's name.
Most of these interviewers were temporarily caught by Kong Chao to show off. They didn't do much preparation at all, and they didn't know who was auditioning today.
Suddenly hearing Le Yan's name, everyone looked at Huang Gao in the middle.
Isn't this an acquaintance of Teacher Huang?
Huang Jie stared straight ahead without changing his expression, showing nothing unusual.
Kong Chao knew beforehand that You Leyan was here for the audition today, and he also thought that Huang Gao was here because of Leyan.
But after waiting for a long time, Teacher Huang didn't say anything to him.
Moreover, he once asked the casting director in charge of the audition who signed up Leyan. The casting director said that it was the information submitted by the company, and there was nothing special or special instructions.
Did he think too much?
At this time, Leyan walked in front of everyone and began to introduce himself:
"Hello everyone, my name is Le Yan, and I am currently a freshman student in the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy."
Le Yan's self-introduction was still so concise, and he didn't want to say a single more word.
Kong Chao picked up Le Yan's information and looked at it, then suddenly frowned and asked:
"Why is the audition role column empty? Which role are you going to interview?"
Without waiting for Le Yan to react, Huang Gao, who had been silent since sitting down, suddenly opened his mouth:
"Let these male protagonist's classmates let him try."
The eyes of the whole audience were once again focused on Huang Gao.
Isn't this appropriate?
Huang Gao looked at Kong Chao with a smile:
"The director doesn't think it's okay? That's okay. Do it your way. I'll just say whatever I want."
How dare Kong Chao say no when he heard this?
He immediately said with a smile:
"There are only three characters in total, not many, you can try them all!"
After speaking, Kong Chao began to introduce characters to Le Yan.
Since this was the first time Leyan had received character information, he frowned and had a very serious expression on his face as he listened.
This expression is a sign of lack of confidence in the eyes of outsiders.
It’s so difficult to audition for one role, why would he try for three more?
Everyone looked at each other in unison.
Le Yan is an acquaintance of Teacher Huang. How should he comment if he behaves badly?
Huang Gao, who was sitting in seat C, looked relaxed and even played with his mobile phone in a good mood.
He has enough confidence in Leyan's ability.
So what if you don’t know any information beforehand?
Have you ever been afraid of improvisation?
That was enough to shock even his acting teacher!
Thinking of this, Huang Gao happily hummed a ditty.
And he's here. What's there to worry about?
"These three characters are classmates. They met their 'right girls' respectively on the road of youth. The plots for today's audition are all emotional dramas. The key words for the first character are sportsman, high-spirited, Forbearance and compromise, the plot you are going to interpret is that at a birthday party, your girlfriend Xiaomei breaks up with you in front of all your friends. She says that she has never loved you and has always used you as a backup. Get ready. It’s time to start.”
After hearing the plot and character characteristics, Leyan curled his lips unconsciously.
It’s really outrageous!
Okay, now is not the time to complain.
Among the four keywords, 'athlete' and 'emotional' represent that this character may have relatively large mood swings, but the next two keywords 'tolerance' and 'compromise' are quite different from the previous character.
Such a complex character?
"Do you need any props?" The staff next to him asked Le Yan unmoved and took the initiative.
Le Yan thought for a while and said politely:
"I need a chair and a table, thank you teacher."
The chairs and table were quickly moved over, and Leyan took a deep breath and sat on the chair.
Because there was no partner during the audition, Leyan had to perform to the air the whole time.
Suddenly, he slammed the table hard and shouted loudly:
"Order! Order! Order! Where is the waiter?! I want to order!"
Because Leyan's movements and shouts were so loud, many teachers were so frightened that they leaned back.
Is this kid crazy?
He was quiet and polite one second, then crazy the next?
After shouting for a few seconds, Leyan stopped, smiled into the air on his right and said:
"Xiao Mei and I are joking. How can we break up? Go out and help me call the waiter in!"
Apparently Leyan is talking to 'all his friends' in the plot.
He smiled and waved impatiently:
"Everyone, go! We both know how to whisper, so don't listen to anyone!"
A second later, the smile on Le Yan's face suddenly disappeared. He slowly turned his head and looked to the left side of his body:
"Xiaomei, what do you mean? You broke up with me in front of so many friends? Why?"
Suddenly he hit the table again, this time with greater force than before, and a lot of dust fell out from underneath.
Le Yan looked to the left with wide eyes:
"Spare tire? How can I be the spare tire? Which friend around me doesn't know that we are seriously dating?!"
Then his emotions gradually calmed down and he was no longer so irritable.
Le Yan looked down at the table in front of him, rocked his body back and forth, and said with a wry smile:
"Xiao Mei, you also said that we are friends, are we not in love? How can we break up? Let's just continue to be friends, okay?"
The next second, Leyan stood up and bowed to the teachers.
All the teachers in the interview seat were stunned.
This is the best performance they have seen since they auditioned today.
When an actor interprets this role and plot, he either pays more attention to his violence and hysterical roars, or he pays more attention to his endurance and painful pleading. In short, there will be emphasis.
Le Yan vividly expressed the complexity of this character in just one minute.
"Very good." Kong Chao praised sincerely.
Unlike the other interviewers present, he participated in the entire casting process.
Leyan was not only the best performer today, but also the best performer among all those who auditioned for this role.
He even wants to decide to give this role to Leyan now!
But Leyan will try two more roles later and it's not time to give the results yet. Kong Chao is starting to look forward to his next performance!
He looked at Huang Gao:
"What do you think, Teacher Huang?"
After each actor performed, he would ask Huang Gao for his opinion.
But Huang Gao waved his hand every time and said you don’t need to ask me.
Even so, there is still some courtesy required.
I thought that Huang Gao would wave his hands as before, and Kong Chao would naturally start describing the next character. Unexpectedly, Huang Gao did not refuse this time.
"When my girlfriend mentioned breaking up, I violently banged the table and called the waiter, which fit the character of a 'athlete'; shouting impulsively at the people around me also reflected 'emotional'; even if I was extremely angry, I still treated Xiaomei with the same temper. By suppressing it, it showed 'forbearance'; in the end, saying 'it's not about breaking up as friends' also showed 'compromise'." Huang Qi looked at everyone with a smile, "It's all performed, it's good, good, good."
Kong Chao and everyone present finally understood.
Huang Gao came here to support Leyan today.
Thanks to [Gongziyin] for the reward!
There is another chapter that will be released later.
