I am a Big Villain
93. Self-cultivation of a soft-boiled man
The audition time was at one o'clock in the afternoon, half an hour early, Zhong Li got into his own car and left, because there would be other actors participating in the audition. If Yan Chu and Zhong Li appeared together, it would have a bad impact on him.
The relationship between the two is different now. Yan Chu is innocent and straightforward. Zhong Li unconsciously thinks more about the other person. The agent who arranges for him is also a well-known ace agent in the circle.
"You must be Yan Chu, I am Sein Fei's manager."
He looked at the slightly green boy in front of him. Mr. Zhong suddenly handed over a new person to him. He was not satisfied at first, but seeing that Mr. Zhong was living with the person in front of him, this dissatisfaction I discounted it if I was satisfied.
You must know that there are so many talented actors in the company, but Mr. Zhong has never been involved in gossip.
The man in front of him quietly went to Mr. Zhong's bed, and even asked Mr. Zhong to take the trouble to get him an audition for Director He's new film. His scheming and methods should not be underestimated.
Sein Fei is not afraid that his people are too thoughtful, but he is afraid that he will be careless and hang around in this circle without any means to climb up.
Yan Chu is now liked by Mr. Zhong, which means that there will be no shortage of films sent to him in the future, and various activities and exposures will follow. As an agent, I don’t need too many Think of ways to find resources for the other party, which saves a lot of effort.
As long as the person in front of him can seize the most important exposure period, even if Mr. Zhong becomes indifferent to him later, relying on his face and his face, he can hold him up.
The agent's commission is linked to the actor's income. The more popular the artist under his control is, the more money he earns, and the agent's commission will naturally be higher. No one will complain about the lack of money.
Song Fei's dissatisfaction was almost gone, and he was happily thinking about how to discuss it with Xuan Tui. He should be Tianqi's key support in the future.
Yan Chu recognized the chubby man in front of him who smiled and looked very approachable.
He is the Smiling Buddha in the entertainment industry. He has great skills and a wide range of friends. He has handled many public relations crises. As long as the artists in his hands do not commit suicide, they hardly have to worry about their scandals and black materials being spread on a large scale on the Internet.
Zhong Li obviously took into consideration the relationship between the two when he handed himself over to this person.
The original person in his previous life did not have such luck. His agent was not bad, but compared to Seinfeld, there was a world of difference.
It seems that I am more favored?
He changed into a black and gray striped shirt and put on a dark red bow tie. He sprayed some gel on his hands and pulled back his clean and fluffy hair. A disobedient curl hung on the peak of his eyebrows. , when the eyebrows and eyes are slanted, they are full of frivolity and frivolity.
Young Master Chen San in the script appears in the mirror just as he is.
Sein Fei, who was standing behind Yan Chu, naturally did not miss the other person's expression just now. He was so shrewd that he immediately knew what the other person meant. This was to show him his strength.
Seinfeld's ability to climb to where he is now is certainly not due to luck.
He was very thorough and had read all the information about Yan Chu before coming, including excerpts from the script for his audition.
Before coming, he, like most people, was not optimistic that Yan Chu could win director He's new movie.
There were many veteran actors in the audition this time. Mr. Chen’s character design was quite outstanding. In the early stage, he mostly appeared as a carefree and dissolute young master. However, in the later stage, he died, even on the anti-Japanese battlefield. There is a huge contrast between before and after. If the performance is good, it will definitely get a lot of applause.
The competition was so fierce that Sein Fei never thought that Yan Chu could win from the beginning. His original plan was to promote Yan Chu to the traffic. It would be a pity that his face was not red, but he looked at the opponent just for a moment. His aura suddenly changed, as if Master Chen in the script appeared in front of him.
Seinfeld felt that his original plan might be changed.
A layman sees the excitement, an expert sees the door. As an agent, of course he cannot fully evaluate Yan Chu's acting skills, so he plans to wait until the audition is over before making a decision.
*****
"Qu Jianglin is here too. Which role will he try?"
"I don't know. There is also Best Actor Zhang. I just saw him enter. For a position like his, he should be auditioning for the leading role, right?"
When Yan Chu followed Song Fei in, the environment in the waiting room was noisy. He saw many familiar faces who often appeared in TV series.
"Look at Seinfeld. Is the guy next to him a newcomer? I haven't seen him before."
"Seinfeld, will he bring in new people?"
Just the fact that Yan Chu appeared alone was inconspicuous, but there was Sein Fei standing next to him, which attracted a lot of attention.
As an ace manager, Seinfei basically has first- and second-tier stars. There is no way he should be allowed to lead a newcomer like Yan Chu. It would be a waste of resources.
Everyone present realized that this person was probably the newcomer that Apocalypse was strongly supporting. Apocalypse was the biggest sponsor of Director He's new film. They didn't know what role the other party was trying for. If they collided with him, it would probably be mysterious. .
Now I can only pray that Director He pays enough attention to this transformational work of his, and don't let investors just let in such an unknown person, otherwise it will be too clumsy.
For a time, Yan Chu's body was filled with a lot of unfriendly and subtle hostility.
"You have to get used to being jealous in this circle, that means you are popular."
With Yan Chu's current status, there was no need for a separate lounge. Song Fei accompanied Yan Chu to find a seat in a corner and sat down, and said in his ear.
Yan Chu was noncommittal, took out the script and read it carefully.
Seeing that he was concentrating, Sein Fei didn't bother him. He got up and went to chat with his colleagues and take a look at the current situation.
"There are many people competing with you for Master Chen. Among them, the biggest opponent should be Qu Jianglin from Juxing. He just won the Best Supporting Actor Award from Wanhua and his momentum is just right. The other one is Liu Tao from Wanyi. However, Liu Tao is a little older, which does not match the youthful and unruly image of Mr. Chen who was only seventeen when he first appeared, but his acting skills have been recognized by many directors, and he has worked with Director He three times, so they have a tacit understanding. Director He might be biased toward him."
Song Fei responsibly communicated with Yan Chu about the information he had obtained. Yan Chu also followed his instructions and saw two actors who were also waiting in the lounge.
It seemed that the other party also heard about him, and their eyes met in the air.
That Qu Jianglin looked a little aloof, but he was vaguely in love with Mr. Chen from a certain period. The other person looked at him with some contempt and disdain. Yan Chu thought that maybe the other person had also found out what role he was going to try.
When a newcomer faces off against Wanhua's best supporting actor, it seems clear who will win.
On the other hand, Liu Tao looked very amiable and nodded to him. It's just that he is indeed a bit older as Seinfeld said. He seems to be in his thirties. Playing the 17-year-old Mr. Chen, there seems to be some difference in appearance.
Among the three, Qu Jianglin was the first to go in and stayed inside for about ten minutes, which was considered a relatively long time among so many actors who auditioned.
When he came out, he couldn't hide the look on his face and looked at him several times. It seemed that he was already sure of this role.
Liu Tao went in shortly after him, and the other party stayed there for about the same amount of time. When he came out, his expression was the same as when he went in. This is an old man who can handle himself well.
With these two people around, the other actors who auditioned for Chen Sanye must have been under a lot of pressure. Almost all of them had sad faces when they came out, and Yan Chu was placed at the end.
"You are auditioning for Mr. Chen, so just play the role without any introduction."
There was a long delay and Yan Chu had already left, so the steward said directly to him and pushed him in.
In front of him was a stage that had been set up. Opposite the stage, there was a row of people sitting.
He An and Zhong Li were sitting in the middle, so naturally they were the most conspicuous.
In addition, there were several investors. Yan Chu noticed that the best actor Zhang Tianze was also sitting at the interview table. It seemed that his position as the leading actor had been determined.
His eyes stayed on Zhong Li for a little longer, because he was a newcomer to Tianqi, so it was not surprising to see his boss.
The script Yan Chu received showed the scene in which the second female lead in the play, Mrs. Chen, whom he admired, died. This scene is a test of the actor's acting skills.
There was no co-star, so Yan Chu simply regarded the interview examiners as his sister-in-law in the script.
"Sister-in-law."
In the empty room, even such a whisper-like voice echoed faintly.
In the center of the stage, the young man in a crisp suit lowered his head. No one could clearly see his expression at this time, but the tangled and swaying energy in his body, the despair and pain caused by morality and love, could only be expressed through his body language. And that line was vividly displayed in front of all the audience.
He An's original sitting posture was relatively relaxed. As soon as Yan Chu's first words came out, he couldn't help but straighten his posture and lean forward slightly. He was obviously interested in Yan Chu.
"The peach blossoms are blooming outside. When you feel better, I will take you out to have a look."
There seemed to be a woman lying in front of him with a weak body and a lifeless body.
Yan Chu stretched out his hand to hold the other person's hand, which was full of veins and almost skin and bones, but in his eyes, those were the most beautiful hands in the world.
He raised his head, with admiration and tenderness in his eyes, as well as strong love and heartache buried deep under the disguise.
"Brother went out to do some accounting and will be back soon."
He could not tell this poor woman that her beloved husband was by another woman's side when she died.
That woman is so smart. She knows exactly where her husband, who is in the same bed as her, is at this moment without her brother-in-law having to tell her.
She was an open-minded woman. She changed the subject. She was in poor health and it was difficult to say a word, but she wanted to say that there were some things that she would never be able to say again if she didn't say them.
She told the young man who had been by her side that she would not live long and it was a pity that she could not see him marry and have children. The young man told her that she would see it.
She said that she had loved a man all her life, but that man didn't love her back.
The young man wanted to tell her that there was also a man who loved her all his life, but he was too cowardly to tell her.
Zhong Li knew that the other party was acting and pretending to be another person, but he still couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Finally, the woman asked the young man to take her to the window. She hadn't seen the color of the sky for a long time.
The young man carried her to the lounge chair by the window, while he half-knelt beside her.
The woman sang a ditty that she had sung to him when he was a child to put him to bed.
As I sang, the singing stopped.
The low and suppressed sobs gradually became louder and louder. The judges below couldn't help but have red eyes when they looked at the young man crying uncontrollably on the stage.
The more suppressed, the more intense it becomes.
From beginning to end, his expression was calm. Except for his eyes, his expression and the tone of his voice seemed to be telling a plain story that the weather was good today.
But it was those eyes that suppressed too many emotions that made this dullness more gripping, until the moment when it finally broke out, all the emotions burst out.
"Bah bang bang."
He An stood up and applauded Yan Chu. He was quite satisfied with the performances of Qu Jianglin and Liu Tao before, but for some reason, there was just a missing feeling, and this feeling was found in Yan Chu.
The character of Mr. Chen is both outgoing and restrained. He is wild and carefree, wandering in the world of luxury and wealth, but he is also restrained. He is secretive and dare not let anyone notice his feelings for his elder sister-in-law.
Even when Mrs. Chen was about to die, he still did not dare to let the other party know his thoughts. He was afraid that he would become a trouble for her, so Mr. Chen played by Yan Chu was very quiet, so quiet that it was terrifying.
He An didn't know how to express his excitement. He felt that he had found the Mr. Chen he wanted.
"That's him."
He An almost decided to play this role without even thinking about it.
Liu Tao had a good personal relationship with him, but at his age, it was really difficult for him to play the role of Master Chen. He An planned to give him a supporting role that was relatively light but also outstanding.
As for Qu Jianglin, he was indeed pretty good before Yan Chu appeared, but in comparison with the two, Qu Jianglin's faint arrogance was not so popular with He An.
Before turning to acting, Qu Jianglin was a professional in idol dramas and had many young fans. He An was also worried that Qu Jianglin would bring the bad habit of being spoiled by fans to the set. Moreover, there were too many scandals about him, which was not a stabilizing factor.
After weighing several times, he felt that Yan Chu was the best.
"Director He, Mr. Chen plays an important role. I don't think it's feasible for such an unknown newcomer to take on this responsibility."
One of the investors is interested in Qu Jianglin's reputation. In his opinion, Qu Jianglin's performance is also good. The most important thing is that the other party has many fans and will contribute to the box office. Isn't it just who has the highest box office appeal?
"That's right, you said that this drama needs to be shot in full real-life scenes, which costs a lot of money. I think Qu Tianlin is better."
Investors have their own concerns. The director wants to win awards, and they want to make money. This is inherently conflicting.
After listening to the words of those investors, He An's face darkened.
"Boss Zhang, Boss Mao, you know how much I value this film. I won't make fun of my own brand. Besides, isn't the guarantee of Best Actor Zhang enough for you?"
In those commercial films in the past, he might have chosen Qu Tianlin's acting skills, which were also hugely popular, but this one was different. Now that he had the best, he didn't want to pick up another defective film.
"Director He, there seems to be a schedule after Yinmeng. I think she might be suitable for the role of Mrs. Chen."
Zhong Li saw that his little man acted so well and was actually disliked by everyone. He also forgot what he was like when he invested in movies, so he stood up for others without even thinking about it.
The Chu Yinmeng she calls is one of the four major stars in China. She has won three domestic Grand Slam Best Actress Awards and is the only Chinese actress to have been selected for the Olympic Award for Best Actress. Her status is so high that it is not just one after another that pops up. The little flowers can be compared.
The other party has been famous for many years, but now he only plays leading roles, and she still doesn't like ordinary roles.
But now that Zhong Li has spoken, it means that the other party is sure that Chu Yinmeng will take over the role of Grandma Chen.
Other investors were happy to hear this. With the best actor and best actress here, are they still worried that the movie will not have box office appeal?
Of course, after Zhong Li spoke, they also realized that this newcomer was from Tianqi. Zhong Li was trying to stand up for his own people, but it was still worthwhile to exchange Qu Jianglin for Chu Yinmeng. Besides, He An himself liked it. If you fall in love with that new guy and insist on going against him, it won't be nice if the relationship becomes tense.
Several investors who had originally advised Qu Jianglin stopped speaking against it, and the result was decided.
****
"Hello."
The results of the audition were notified separately. Yan Chu left directly after the interview. He knew that Zhong Li would return to the company then, so he simply went to the other party's company to wait for her.
Before the car reached the downstairs of the company, Yan Chu received a call. The three characters "Dear" were clearly written on the caller ID.
Because the company's nanny car was not fully equipped with some assistants and so on, Sein Fei, a big manager, reluctantly became his driver as a newcomer. When Yan Chu took out his mobile phone, he naturally saw the three words on it with sharp eyes. .
"Sister Li."
When Zhong Li on the other end of the phone heard the other party's name, he immediately knew that there was someone else beside him.
She kept her story short and told Yan Chu the good news that he had been selected, without mentioning a word about her contribution here.
After hanging up the phone, before Seinfeld could ask him who was calling, his cell phone rang. He happened to be in the company's parking garage at this time. Seinfeld took out his cell phone and it was the president's secretary calling. .
Now he knew that the intimate call on Yan Chu's phone was definitely Mr. Zhong, and also Sister Li. Besides Zhong Li, who else could be Sister Li.
Even though he only had to wait a few more minutes for the secretary to notify him, Mr. Zhong, who was busy with everything, even called him personally. It seemed that the artist he worked for was more popular with Mr. Zhong than he thought.
****
"How is this possible? Is it Liu Tao? He has collaborated with He An several times. He doesn't care how old he is. How embarrassed is he to play a seventeen-year-old boy?"
Qu Jianglin also knew the results of the audition. He thought he was a sure shot for the role, but now he was told that it was taken away by someone else, so where would he put his face?
"It's not him, he's a newcomer from Tianqi. He seems to be a student at the film school. There was no news about it before. Could it be Tianqi's secret weapon?"
Qu Jianglin's manager also looked unhappy. His artist was robbed of his role by a newcomer. What does it mean to tell others that their artist's acting skills are not as good as that of a newcomer?
"It's him!"
Qu Jianglin slammed his fist on the table, making his agent jump.
"What, you know him?"
Judging from the expression on his artist's face, it seems that he has a bad taste in mind for the newcomer.
"He's just a higher-level duck. He thinks he can climb on top of me if he gets close to Zhong Li."
Qu Jianglin was full of hatred. He also fell in love with a rich woman. The financial backer behind him was almost fifty this year, and he also liked to play with women. He weighed nearly two hundred pounds on him, and the foundation and eyeshadow on his face were mushy with sweat. Tuan is just like the old witch, but he still has to pretend to enjoy it deeply.
The best acting skills of his life were spent on this matter.
As for Yan Chu, Zhong Li is only twenty-nine this year. He has a hot body and a good face. He is willing to let such a cold-hearted woman under him with a wanton expression, even if it is not for resources and status. Ah, being taken care of by a woman like Zhong Li is simply a combination of wealth and sex.
Qu Jianglin thinks he is better than Yan Chu, but why is he still not as good as Yan Chu?
"Are you serious?"
His agent didn't believe it. Why didn't he hear the news?
Qu Jianglin's face froze, and he couldn't tell the other person that he used to work in Lanlan, and then he fell in love with this rich woman. He had his eyelids pierced, his nose done, his bones shaved off, and he appeared in front of people with a new look. This The news was told to him by his former friend.
Blue's management is very strict, and the forces behind it are unimaginable. If he spills the beans, he will offend more than one person.
"It was at that golden wedding dinner of Mr. Gao Bi Gao and Mr. Zhang that the tabloid reported Mr. Zhong's mysterious male version. That person was Yan Chu. Think about it, when have you ever seen Zhong Li with a male companion? And this time Zhong Li is The biggest investor, it’s not easy for her to get the position of the third male investor.”
Qu Jianglin said this through gritted teeth. His acting skills have been recognized by audiences across the country. Who is Yan Chu to steal the role from him.
"Don't worry, I'll figure it out."
His agent gritted his teeth. Like Qu Jianglin, he was very optimistic about this film directed by He, especially the character Chen Sanye. The tragic ending will definitely attract some fans.
Juxing and Tianqi are from different camps. No matter what the means, as long as Mr. Zhong is not involved, she may not stand up for the little wolf dog she raised. At that time, as long as there is some problem with the other party's image, why does He An attach so much importance to this movie? For movies, the other party should also know what to do for the sake of the movie’s reputation.
