Bad feng shui in the entertainment industry

If Xiao Liu, the makeup artist, saw that Tomson had washed off all the makeup he worked so hard on, he would definitely faint from anger.Fortunately, he didn't have this opportunity. In order to reduce the number of idlers, only the actors themselves were allowed to enter the audition teaching building, and only big film and television companies like Da Qin Tianlai could let the agents and assistants through.

This time Qin Nan didn't follow, but Lu Haojia was guarding outside the bathroom. When he saw Tang Chen's appearance, his expression looked like he had swallowed a lemon raw, and his eyes were about to fall, "Boss, you, you are..."

Tang Chen waved his hand, signaling to Lu Haojia not to worry, "It's okay, I'll find out how I feel."

"But, your makeup..." Lu Haojia stopped talking halfway, because she suddenly found that the impression of Tomson at this time was more suitable for Yin Pei's image in the movie.

Tang Chen usually looks very soft. Although the make-up artist carefully designed the makeup for him is not bad, very pure, but it strengthened his soft side and lost some layers.At this time, water drops were hanging on Tomson's eyelashes and hair, his face was completely white after washing, and he didn't know if it was because he rubbed the eye shadow hard, his eyelids were reddish, which made his pupils brighter, which made him feel depressed and young. In addition, it added a bit of open-minded taste.

Because it was an audition, many actors came, most of them were students who had not graduated from the film school. At the entrance of the audition room, there were special staff members queuing up to get their numbers, and there was a lot of noise.

Tang Chen is considered a celebrity now, and he used a separate classroom as a lounge. However, the Encounter Road is narrow, and when he walked into the classroom, there was already a person waiting inside.

"Hey, what's wrong with us athletes?" Xue Zilin raised his head when he heard the door opening, saw Tang Chen's appearance, and said mockingly: "You really made yourself look like a duck because you thought you were going to play a male prostitute? "

If Lu Haojia was here, he would have rushed over to bite Xue Zilin immediately upon hearing this, but how could Tang Chen's Ninja skills cultivated in the past 20 years be so easily irritated?He didn't even look at Xue Zilin, he just picked up an empty chair and sat down, immersed in the sense of drama that he finally found.

But Xue Zilin refused to give up, "Tomson, you used to suppress me everywhere, just relying on your background and connections. Now I have what you have. Do you think I will easily lose to you?"

Tang Chen still didn't respond, leaving Xue Zilin embarrassed to talk to himself.

Xue Zilin hit the cotton with his fist, very angry.At this time, the door of the classroom was pushed open, and someone came in and asked Xue Zilin to audition.When passing by Tang Chen, Xue Zilin's footsteps paused slightly, his hands hanging on both sides of his body clenched into fists, and he said in a low voice: "There are four people in the dormitory, I know the three of you have always looked down on me, but look, I must be The one who laughs last!"

To this former roommate, Tomson really didn't know how to treat him, and he was relieved to see him leave now.

"This person's life is not long." Sect Master Mochizuki said suddenly.

Tomson was startled, "What do you mean?"

Sect Master Mochizuki: "Just the literal meaning. But it is not accurate to say that his life is not long. He has life but no soul, is he alive or dead?"

Tang Chen was confused, "Are you talking about Xue Zilin?"

Sect Master Mochizuki: "Otherwise, who else is it? What does your expression mean? He has been against you all the time. Isn't this good news for you?"

Tang Chen was out of his mind for a moment, and forced to twitch the corner of his lips, "Should it be good news? But I'm not happy at all, but a little sad. Is the suzerain going to call me Madonna again?"

Sect Master Mochizuki was silent for a moment, but suddenly laughed in a low voice, "Well, some people just can't change their eating shit."

Tang Chen's black line, but the strange thing is that the sense of boredom in his heart has dissipated a lot after being hurt by Mochizuki, and he asked: "What will happen to Xue Zilin? Is there no turning point?"

Sect Master Wangyue is obviously not interested in Xue Zilin's life and death, but just mentioned his fate casually, so he just casually said: "Whether there is a turning point, it depends on God's will, it is not up to you and me."

Tang Chen thought the same, he couldn't even control his own destiny, how could he control other people's affairs?Thinking of this, I can't help but feel some fatalistic sadness, but my mood is more consistent with that of Yin Pei in the film.

Soon someone opened the door and came in to announce that it was Tomson's turn to audition.

Tomson took a deep breath and went out to the audition room next door.

There were three or four people sitting behind a long table made up of several desks. When Tomson entered, they were discussing the performance of a previous auditioner, that is, Xue Zilin.Or rather, except for one person sitting in the middle, everyone else was discussing in low voices.

The man looked about 30 years old, and he didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, just lowered his head and played with a pen, looking a little absent-minded, even a little impatient.

Tomson already has a lot of experience in this kind of audition, even director Zheng Baoping's subordinates have been through it once, how can he be nervous?

However, when the man playing with the pen raised his head and looked at Tang Chen faintly, Tang Chen suddenly felt oppressed by those two sharp gazes, and had nowhere to hide.

"Director Chen, start the next one?" The people next to him saw the young man raised his head, and asked in a low voice, with a very respectful attitude.

This person is actually Chen Bo?Tomson was slightly surprised.

Director Chen Bo is called a ghost director in the industry, but he is very low-key and rarely accepts interviews, so there are very few close-up photos.In order to prepare for the mirror, Tomson read the information about Chen Bai that Lu Haojia found for him, but he didn't know that he was so young, and his facial features were outstanding, even compared to those in the acting department. When looking at people with squinted eyes, it shows a strong aggressiveness.

Generally, in this kind of audition, there are some people who are good and bad, and the ones who communicate with the actors are usually the assistant directors or producers.However, Tang Chen stood in this classroom for a long time, and did not see any of the assistant directors intending to talk to him, but Chen Bai himself kept staring at him, like a hunter examining his prey.

Tomson has heard for a long time that Chen Bo's audition is different from others. It is quite unique. There is no fixed routine. It is Director Chen who comes at will. Sometimes the audition actors do not even perform any performances, and they are eliminated. , Sometimes it may be simply to ask a few questions, talk about topics that have nothing to do with acting, and directly decide whether to hire.

Maybe it's time to try to get into the show now?

Tang Chen pondered carefully, trying not to let himself be disturbed by Chen Bona's long gaze.

At this moment, Chen Bo finally spoke. He asked Tang Chen a question.

"Do you like men?"

Tang Chen was stunned, as if he didn't understand Director Chen Bai's words, he just stared at him blankly.

Director Chen Bo didn't urge Tomson either, and gave him enough time. Seeing that he still didn't answer, he asked patiently again.

Do you like men?

Tang Chen's mind was completely confused, his heart was beating extremely fast, and the blood all over his body seemed to rush into his brain in an instant, steaming his cheeks hot.

What kind of question is this?

Maybe it's just a test of acting skills?The film is about two men, so is this already in the plot?But why did he feel so guilty when he suddenly heard others ask about this?

Simply denying and evading is definitely not acceptable. What is the answer that can satisfy this genius director?

"I... like a person..." Tang Chen thought a lot, but he didn't waste time on his words. It was just a matter of delaying time and gaining more opportunities to think. Unknowingly, he uttered such an unconscious sentence, When he reacted, he startled himself, his drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he had done something outrageous.

Director Chen stared at Tang Chen expressionlessly, showing no emotion.

The assistant director next to him kindly reminded, "Pay attention to the question asked by Director Chen..."

But Director Chen raised his hand lightly and stopped him.

"He's a man." Tomson's voice became softer and softer, as if he was talking to himself, but every word was clearly transmitted to the directors' ears, making them even breathe easier.

"A man?" Director Chen asked.

"Well, man." Tang Chen lowered his head even further, his previously wet hair was half dry, and a few strands were curled and stuck to his forehead.

"Why do you like a man?" Director Chen continued to ask.

Sect Master Mochizuki was silent in Tang Chen's body, feeling the beating heartbeat like a drum, and only wanted to take Tang Chen away from here, and prevent him from saying those words that made him unable to tell the truth from the false.Maybe he was just acting, but for him, it was a kind of suffering.But in the end Mochizuki Sect Master still chose to suffer, even if he imagined that those words had nothing to do with the plot of the audition, he was actually a little content.

Tomson shook his head, "I don't know."

"do not know?"

"Well, I don't know."

At this time, several assistant directors saw Tomson's red eyelids and the very faint redness on his fair and transparent skin. They looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise.

"Why are you crying?" Director Chen asked, seeming to have finally begun to have some interest in the actor in front of him.

Before he knew it, Tang Chen's tears had fallen one by one, hitting the ground, he wiped his face, but his voice didn't choke, "Because it shouldn't be."

This answer was a bit clichéd, and the assistant directors shook their heads in regret.The relationship between Yin Pei and Lu Shuangyan in the movie can be said to be an unethical love. Yin Pei should not fall in love with Lu Shuangyan. When Tang Chen said this, he definitely wanted to lead the play in this way. This is different from the previous few The auditionees are much the same, but they have performed very well, but they will not be attracted any more.

"Why not?" Chen Bo asked suddenly.

Tang Chen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Because... I will probably die in the end."

These words not only shocked the few people present, but also shocked Sect Master Mochizuki.

"Can you tell me your name?"

Tang Chen raised his head, and there was a moment of confusion in his eyes.

"My name is Yin Pei."

Sect Master Mochizuki smiled wryly because he was almost scared out of his wits.

After all, he was thinking too much.
