Play Speak
Upon learning that the crew for today's audition was Ye Zhiqiu's, Zhou Mei from the small theater troupe was excited but more worried.
On the side, although Bai Wei felt a little nervous, he still maintained his usual optimism: "What are you afraid of? Just give it a try when you come."
"It's said in the industry that Ye Zhiqiu's crew is very fair in casting. He pays great attention to whether the actor and the role are compatible, which means everyone has hope."
Zhou Mei quietly looked at the actors in the venue who might be her competitors. She had never experienced such a big scene before. It was nothing at first, but now when she looked at others, she had the illusion that they all had a strong aura.
"It's over, it's over. Old White is really nervous now."
"You said that we are not professionally trained, and we can't compare to the young and beautiful ones. How can we compete?"
Bai Wei glanced at her and said slowly, "That's you. I'm a professional student, graduated from a formal art college."
Zhou Mei was speechless, rolled her eyes and complained back: "Then you can't compare to him in handsomeness."
"Look at the guy in front. He's tall, has long legs, and his face is so tender that you can pinch water out of it... Oh my god, how can he be so good-looking? No, I have to stop drooling..."
Bai Wei was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "If I said that I used to be the most handsome boy in school, would you believe it?"
"......" Zhou Mei looked at him with horror, forgetting even her nervousness, "Lao Bai, stop messing around! We are doing business!"
Bai Wei said weakly: "Really, I was quite handsome when I was young and thin."
Zhou Mei still had an expression that said, "Do you think I believe you?" Bai Wei curled his lips and said, "Forget it."
"Don't worry, we will always be together when we become rich and powerful! When your brother Bai becomes the leading man and reaches the pinnacle of his life, he will help you."
Zhou Mei was so amused by him that she laughed out loud, "Come on! You're not the leading actor, it's good enough to have a small role!"
"If you are the hero, I will be the heroine, otherwise I will not agree!"
Bai Wei shifted his gaze from the long white legs of a beautiful woman passing by and said, "Hey, give it a try, maybe you can really do it."
"Rich people... Oh no, it's hard to tell the taste of a great director sometimes."
Zhou Mei was amused by his words and burst out laughing. She couldn't help but slap him on the shoulder.
"I'll go to hell with you, is there anyone as comforting as you?"
But after this, her nervousness was relieved a lot.
Bai Wei chuckled and said, "Don't be nervous. It doesn't matter if you are a professional. There are still many people with low level."
"Comedy is different from idol drama. It's not just about who has the best looks."
"For those of us who are acting in stage plays, our dialogue skills and camera sense are good enough. We just need to perform at our best. In the end, it depends on how the director chooses us. What belongs to you is yours. No one can guarantee that they will be chosen. There is no point in worrying in advance."
What he said is indeed true, once a stage play goes on stage it is performed from beginning to end, there is no such thing as NG, so the quality of the actors is generally very good, on the contrary there is some advantage.
The two were sitting not far from the audition area. While chatting, they suddenly heard a scream from over there, which should have come from an auditioning actor.
【Come here! 】
“???” The scream made the atmosphere at the scene stagnant for a second. Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.
Are you fighting?
In general auditions, some crews will send out part of the script in advance and provide a brief introduction to the characters; some crews will not provide any information due to confidentiality requirements, and will directly make requests on the scene, allowing the actors to improvise based on their understanding.
"Charlotte's Troubles" uses the second method, so many of the auditioning actors do not know the specific content of the audition. When there is movement, everyone pricks up their ears and listens.
After a while, the actor inside walked out and everyone turned their eyes to him.
The other person had a happy look on his face, and he said something to his companion who looked like an agent. The two of them left quickly with happy expressions on their faces.
This scene made many people waiting at the scene feel depressed.
It seems that the other party's performance just now was good. Could it be that he has been promised by the crew? There are only so many roles in a crew, and there are too many monks and too little meat, which means that there are fewer opportunities for others.
But it is also possible that the other party is deliberately being mysterious in order to confuse potential competitors. Such tricks are very common in competition.
At this time, the staff called out the next number.
"It's my turn!" In the crowd, Zhou Mei's back suddenly straightened and her expression became nervous again.
"Go ahead, come on!" Bai Wei encouraged.
After Zhou Mei left, a big guy who had been listening to their conversation came over immediately.
"Hello, big brother." The big guy had a simple smile on his face and said respectfully, "I just listened to what you said. You are amazing and know a lot."
"Do you think I have a chance of being chosen?"
Bai Wei looked in the direction of the sound and couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow".
I saw that the big man who spoke to me was at least 1.9 meters tall, with a sturdy frame. When he approached me, it was like a small mountain moving towards me. The "big guy" smile on his face formed a sharp contrast with his burly figure.
Don't hit a smiling person, just chat, Bai Wei casually asked: "Do you have any acting experience before?"
"No, I was carrying equipment for the crew before." The big guy shook his head and added: "My idol is Wang Qiang, and my dream is to act in movies."
"I saw they were recruiting actors, so I took the train here last night."
"..." Bai Wei was speechless, not knowing whether to call the other party stupid or naive.
What kind of person is Wang Qiang? To say he is one in a million is an understatement. There are more than 10 extras in China, but only one of them.
Not to mention his acting skills, his tall appearance is just too prominent. In fact, in film and television dramas, an actor who is too tall is not an advantage. In the camera, the protagonist will be made to look shorter, commonly known as stealing the spotlight.
Unless the crew needs some special actors, it is generally difficult to be selected.
Bai Wei did not discourage the other party. He told him some audition precautions that he knew. The big guy felt like he had found a treasure and listened very carefully until the staff called out his number.
"Thank you, Brother Bai. We will definitely be selected. I will treat you to a meal then!" The big guy said gratefully before leaving.
Bai Wei smiled indifferently and didn't take it seriously. He looked at Zhou Mei who was walking back after finishing the audition.
"How's it going? It seems like your audition took quite a long time?"
"Why do you look like you lost your soul?"
Zhou Mei looked a little dazed. She glanced at him and said hesitantly, "Old Bai."
"I feel like Ye Zhiqiu's taste might be a little unique."
"He seems to have taken a fancy to me."
