The villain must spend all his money before he goes bankrupt [Transmigration Book]

Probably Geng Bochuan's glorious deeds were too exaggerated, and his reputation was too loud in the whole circle, so that when Song Qifan proposed his name, after a short period of silence in the meeting room, a round of heated discussions broke out soon.

The assistant director of casting was the first to stand up and express his strong opposition. He had cooperated with Geng Bochuan before, and the two had a very unpleasant quarrel. Although the quarrel did not go to the media, the assistant director also disliked this actor very much.

"I'm sorry Director Ye, I worked with Geng Bochuan two years ago. This actor is too arrogant and difficult to get along with. Moreover, the role of Cheng Ye requires a lot of acting skills. I think Geng Bochuan's limited ability is not suitable for this role. .”

When the assistant director said these words, his face was very ugly. Although he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, his voice was still hard to hide.

The producer also spoke, but not for the assistant director.

If the words of the assistant director are highly personal, then the producer is obviously more calm and rational, directly analyzing the overall interests of the film and the possible impact of using Geng Bochuan.

"Song's scriptwriter has a good vision. The actor Geng Bochuan, in terms of his appearance and personality, does have a great overlap with the role of Cheng Ye."

"This means that even if his acting skills are not so outstanding, if he acts in his true colors, he may not be able to play the role well."

The producer's tone was very calm, and he pointed out Geng Bochuan's advantages in a few words, and let everyone present understand why Song Qifan recommended him, so that they would not be confused.

After talking about the advantages, it is natural to talk about the disadvantages. The producer quickly searched for something on the phone, and after a while, his tone changed: "But as Assistant Director Huang said, Geng Bochuan, an actor, whether in the circle or outside the circle, , the evaluations are mixed.”

"If we choose him, we will inevitably face a lot of pressure from public opinion. Our priority is whether the value he can create is worth our risk of using such a...problem actor."

The idea of ​​producing the film coincided with Ye Zhou's. What he was worried about was also what the director Ye Zhou was also worried about.

After he finished speaking, the staff in the meeting room had a heated discussion on the matter of Geng Bochuan. Some were in favor, but even more were the opponents.

After they all finished their discussion, Ye Zhou pondered for a moment, and said, "If it's not like this, it's okay or not, why don't we meet Geng Bochuan first, and then make a decision."

Speaking of which, Ye Zhou still didn't forget to tease himself: "Everyone, don't have too much hope. After all, we are not a big production, and I am not a well-known director. Whether he is willing to come or whether he will have a schedule is still unknown. .”

The staff members were very face-saving, and a burst of friendly laughter broke out after Ye Zhou finished speaking.

This matter has been settled for the time being. Ye Zhou will personally contact Geng Bochuan. Whether it will work or not will only be known after an audition.

Besides, it's just an audition, it's the best, and even if it doesn't work, there's no loss, so most of the staff don't have any opinion on Ye Zhou's decision.

Only the assistant director's already unattractive face turned darker after hearing Ye Zhou's words, but because of Ye Zhou's face, he still didn't say anything.

Not long after the meeting ended, Ye Zhou got the contact information of Geng Bochuan's manager.

Surprisingly, the communication between the two parties went very smoothly. After Ye Zhou revealed his identity, Geng Bochuan's manager attached great importance to this cooperation, and soon made an appointment with Ye Zhou for an audition. Everything went so smoothly that Ye Zhou didn't expect .

But it's really not hard to understand when you think about it.

Although Geng Bochuan is very popular and has almost never stopped advertising in variety show magazines, he is a relatively prolific artist, but several of his famous works are TV dramas.

Even if there are a few chances to show up on the big screen, they are all inconspicuous supporting roles. If you say it well, it is the leading role, but if it is not good, it is actually just a cameo.

Not to mention the main character, even important supporting roles with heavy roles are rarely played. Although he is active, most of them are active on the small screen, and basically have no sense of presence on the big screen.

There is an unwritten rule in the circle that by default there is a wall between TV series and movies, and the wall is relatively thick.TV drama actors want to appear on the big screen, the difficulty is by no means as simple as imagined.

From the small screen to the big screen, whether it is the actor's appearance or acting skills, it is a very severe test.

The looks of some actors may be very good on TV, but once they are put on the big screen, they become very mediocre or even ugly.

This is especially true for acting skills. The requirements for acting skills in TV dramas are far lower than those in movies. As long as actors are shooting TV dramas as a whole, as long as there are no mistakes, some small flaws are usually ignored, but movies are different. very conspicuous.

It seems that there is not much difference between an actor from a TV series to a movie, but in fact it is difficult and sad, and only the actor knows how much he has to suffer.

Even though Ye Zhou is not a famous director, he is still a serious film director. What's more, no matter how the outside world judges him, Ye Zhou's last work was all due to luck, and his achievements are obvious to all.

This is also the most important reason why Ye Zhou's film attracted so many actors to audition this time.

Whether you can hold this olive branch and complete the leap from the small screen to the big screen depends on whether you can successfully pass the audition and get the role.

This opportunity is actually very important to Geng Bochuan.

For this reason, after receiving a call from Ye Zhou and discussing with Geng Bochuan, in order to allow enough time to prepare for the audition, the manager rejected two announcements and a magazine shoot.

If the role provided by Ye Zhou was only a supporting role, maybe they still need to think about it, but Ye Zhou made it very clear that this movie has two male protagonists, and the role Geng Bochuan wants to try is the protagonist of one of the dual male protagonists, so there is no need to hesitate at all.

On the day of the audition, in the van.

The manager poured himself two sips of water, pinched the mineral water bottle and glanced at the artist who was still reciting the conversation, and said, "It's almost time, how are you preparing, if you can, go straight up."

Geng Bochuan looked away from the notebook and said, "It's okay, you don't know how many catties I have."

The manager was choked by his attitude, and couldn't hold back his violent temper. He knocked on his forehead twice with a plastic water bottle, and was furious: "Can you correct my attitude, wait a minute If you still can't control your dog temper when you meet Director Ye, I'll pack up and leave, and you can find an agent again, I can't take you with me anymore!"

Geng Bochuan had long been used to his manager's aggressive attitude, with his left ear coming in and his right ear coming out, and he nodded very perfunctorily.

The manager who was already very angry suddenly became even more angry, and when he wanted to say something, a short cell phone rang in the car. The manager glanced at the number, immediately put away the anger on his face, and regained his amiable expression.

After speaking a few words on the phone, the manager opened the car door and said to Geng Bochuan, "Director Ye and the others are already here, let's go straight up."

Geng Bochuan took a last look at the conversation in the notebook, and then put it on the car seat without taking it down.

Seeing his actions, the agent asked: "Have you memorized the lines? You don't need to take the notebook, just keep it. You can read it later on the way."

"Temporary hugging, can you memorize a few more words?" Geng Bochuan rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Let's go, hurry up, don't make people wait."

The manager was so angry that his chest hurt, and he beat his chest bluntly, but he couldn't do anything about him. Seeing that Geng Bochuan had already gone far, he stamped his feet and hurriedly followed.

Standing in the elevator, Geng Bochuan looked down from the top, all the passages and plots of "Chasing Light" came to his mind, every word and sentence flashed before his eyes like a slideshow.

From the first time he saw the script and the character of Cheng Ye, Geng Bochuan never concealed his love for the script.

However, he is not good at expressing himself. Apart from racing against time to memorize his lines in private, and constantly guessing and simulating his role as Cheng Ye, Geng Bochuan doesn't know what else he can do.

In order to deepen his understanding and cognition of this character, he also wrote a biography of nearly [-] characters for Cheng Ye.

But even so, Geng Bochuan didn't have much hope that he could get this role.

He has a bad reputation and poor acting skills. Before coming, Geng Bochuan actually had expected in his heart that the chance of passing the audition was slim, but he still came, rejected the announcement, and spent days and nights thinking about this role.

Although the chances are slim, he still wants to give it a try.

Geng Bochuan took a deep breath, trying to get himself into Cheng Ye's emotions, seeing what he saw, hearing what he heard, feeling what he felt, he told himself that from the moment he opened the door, he was Cheng Ye.

The wooden door of the audition room was pushed open, making a slight noise, and all the staff in the room, including Ye Zhou, were attracted by the sound.

When he saw clearly the person walking from outside, Ye Zhou was stunned for a moment.

Like, so similar!

Whether it was the aura, expression or demeanor, there was no sense of disobedience in life. When Ye Zhou came back to his senses, he subconsciously glanced at Song Qifan who was sitting by the side.

At this time, Song Qifan's eyes seemed to be glued to Geng Bochuan, staring at him without blinking, his face was a little red from being too excited, and his hands on the table were trembling.

This is Cheng Ye in his story, he is!

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhou swallowed back the words he originally planned to ask, exchanged glances with the producer and the assistant director, then looked at Geng Bochuan again, and said, "It seems that you are well prepared, so let's not talk nonsense, we Get straight to the point."

"The scene I want you to try is that Cheng Ye learned from the teacher that Cheng Ling didn't respond after going to class for a while."

As soon as Ye Zhou mentioned the audition scene, several staff members around him, including the producer and assistant director, were a little stunned.

This, this is different from what they said before!

Knowing Geng Bochuan's acting skills and abilities, after discussing with everyone at first, Ye Zhou selected the plots for the audition. Among all the plots, the difficulty was not very high, and it was even relatively simple.

It can be said that Ye Zhou didn't expect much from him at first.

Until Geng Bochuan opened the door and walked in, the impact of that scene aroused Ye Zhou's interest in an instant. He suddenly realized that the plot they had chosen before was not a challenge at all to the young man in front of him. Maybe they could challenge him. Have higher expectations.

So Ye Zhou directly changed the original simple plot, but he didn't deliberately make it difficult for Geng Bochuan. Instead, he chose a scene with medium to high difficulty, which tested the actors' emotions and micro-expressions.

I don't know whether Geng Bochuan should be sad for the sudden increase in the difficulty of the scene after knowing this, or should be happy for Ye Zhou's expectation and appreciation for him.
