double promise

On the day of the audition, Xie Guan went to the scene to take a look: Well, he is the biggest among the three people who auditioned He Qiao, he is so young and tender that he can pinch water, and when he stops there, it is like an actor from the coaching staff next door went to the wrong set .

It's all here, Xie Guan has to face the scalp.When he entered, the assistant director's face was darkened, but director Pang Zhonghua, the round-faced fat man sitting in the middle, was still calm, and he took a line from the table and gave it to him: "Try this part."

Xie Guan took the lines, turned his back and prepared for 2 minutes.

When he turned around again, his whole demeanor changed suddenly.

Xie Guan's shoulders are straight, his neck is slender, the corners of his mouth are tight, his chin angle is slightly raised, his nostrils are not turned upside down, but his angle of seeing people immediately becomes condescending.He had a handsome expressionless face, his eyes were downcast, and he controlled his limbs with extreme precision in his gestures, imperceptibly exuding a rebellious and oppressive youthful spirit.

"I heard that your master is Ye Sanbai?" He asked arrogantly, his tone was a little careless, but his eyes were fixed on the director, "I am He Qiao, the heir of the He family in Hailing, and I have long admired the great name of Ye School Wing Chun. I want to fight you."

After being rejected by the protagonist and pointed out that the coach does not allow private fights, his lips moved slightly, but he held back when he wanted to say something, cast a glance at the director, and sneered coldly: "What's so great about me being Ye Sanbai's apprentice?" Young talents, seeing you today is nothing more than that."

He cupped his hands scribbled, revealing his sarcasm: "It's hard to be famous, I've learned a lesson."

The essence of "Tsundere" lies in "Jiao", that look is full of murderous intent, but there is a childlike unwillingness hidden in the eyes, especially the hesitant charm and the laziness of handcuffing, it is almost a vivid performance. A young man who is obsessed with martial arts but has no understanding of human feelings.

The director applauded him twice: "Not bad, the acting is good, and the character of the character is well grasped."

After Xie Guan got out of the show, he immediately put away his sharp edge, and bowed to them politely: "Thank you, I just laughed."

The assistant director marked Xie Guan's profile and said, "The audition results will be notified to the manager in a few days. Thank you for your performance, next one."

Xie Guan was about to go out when a stunned young man rushed in hurriedly outside the door, and the two bumped into each other face to face.There was a low threshold on the floor of this room, the man rushed in a hurry, he didn't pay attention to his feet, accidentally tripped over, lost his balance immediately, and plunged into Xie Guan's arms.

Xie Guan couldn't dodge in time, he stretched out his hand to grab the elbow of the incoming person as fast as lightning.His arms were thin and thin, but his hands were very strong. He exerted strength from his shoulders and back at the same time, and with a gentle and long push with both hands, he actually pushed the man's crooked body straight against the momentum, and supported him to stand firmly: "Be careful."

The reckless man opened his mouth and eyes into an "O" shape at the same time. Before he spoke, he looked him up and down like visiting a rare animal: "What was that one just now? Have you practiced martial arts?"

Xie Guan turned sideways to indicate that the director was still in the room, and smiled gently: "It's nothing, it's just a conditioned reflex."

He didn't want to block the door, and was about to go out, when the people in the room suddenly shouted in unison: "Wait!"

The director and the man looked at each other, and the man rolled his eyes, motioning for the director to speak first.

Director Pang Zhonghua rummaged through the materials in a hurry, and said, "What's the boy's name... Oh, thank you. Yes, don't go, wait a while. Wait until He Qiao finishes the test, okay?"

Xie Guan held on to the door leaf without knowing why, hesitantly said: "Then I... go out and wait?"

"No, just sit here," Pang Zhonghua pulled a chair for him from behind the long interview table, "By the way, help me match the actors."

The assistant director silently handed over a thick stack of scripts.

Xie Guan was dragged into the young man in such a dazed and inexplicable way.Standing in the middle of the room, the stunned young man said generously, "Hi director, everyone. I'm Li Yan. I'm here to try out the role of 'He Qiao'."

No wonder Xie watched him familiar.Hulu TV's summer vacation has just finished broadcasting a popular modern idol drama, in which Li Yan plays a maverick designer.He had a good background, and the character had a fashion halo. After the broadcast, fans boasted about his beauty and prosperity every day, and Li Yan took advantage of the trend to become popular.

Xie Guan remembered that he had acted with Wang Ruolun before. He heard that he was a graduate of a well-known foreign conservatory. After returning to China, he made his debut as a singer. industry.

Although Mr. Li Yan is not regarded as an artist, but the artist's faults are the same, and all of them have been inherited, so he is always scolded by netizens for pretending to be coercive and criticizing him for his low EQ.

In terms of appearance, Li Yan obviously has an advantage over Xie Guan. He is young and beautiful, and his temperament is closer to the pampered rich young master.When he opened his mouth and began to read the lines, the boy's voice was clear and his brows were full of energy. Although the performance was a little immature, the overall feeling was right.

Xie Guan's performance is purely based on his acting skills. He himself has nothing in common with "He Qiao"; but Li Yan doesn't need too many acting elements. When he stands there, his momentum is natural, and his own characteristics can fully make up for him. Lack of acting skills.

The director whispered a few words to the assistant director, then turned to Xie Guan, "Xiao Xie, what do you think?"

Xie Guan's heart skipped a beat, and he sank slightly, knowing that the director of He Qiao's role was probably interested in Li Yan, so he asked this question.

"It's very natural." Although he regretted it, he could only tell the truth, "The actor's temperament fits the role very well."

Pang Zhonghua nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, Li Yan's fighting style is exactly the same as He Qiao's."

Li Yan was a little embarrassed by what he said, turned his face away and coughed in embarrassment.Pang Zhonghua laughed loudly, and said to the assistant director, "That's him."

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, with joy in his eyes, but suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned to look at Xie Guan.

Xie Guan smiled and mouthed to him: "Congratulations."

Seeing the interaction between the two of them, Pang Zhonghua was satisfied, and said to Li Yan, "You go back first. I will hold a meeting with you after the specific work arrangements are finalized for the actors."

Turning to greet Xie Guan again: "Little Xie, stay here for a while, come and take a look at this character."

"So you went to audition for the male fourth, but the director chose you as the third male, and also gained Li Yan's friendship by the way?" Wang Ruolun sighed, "You are lucky, should I say good or bad? Tsk, too Difficult."

Xie Guan recalled everything that happened in today's audition, and still found it quite incredible.

He Qiao gave it to Li Yan, Xie Guan thought he was out of action, but Pang Zhonghua turned around and asked him to try another role, the third male Chen Duqiu.

According to the setting of the script, Chen Duqiu is the second-generation heir of Chen-style Tai Chi No.20. He is the same as the Tai Chi martial arts he has learned. He is gentle and calm, soft on the outside and strong on the inside. Cheng Tingshou is mainly responsible for smoothing things over and cleaning up the mess in the play.

This role is purely for the audience to sue. IQ and martial arts are all outstanding. He served as the leader of the North China team in the selection competition, and finally became the captain of the Chinese representative team. He led a group of martial arts teenagers to conquer the stars and the sea. Don't be more male.

This is not over yet, when he made a deal with the director to go out, he found that Li Yan was waiting outside, and when he saw him coming out, he immediately went up to him, grabbed his hand and shook him enthusiastically: "Brother, thank you today!" That's it! My name is Li Yan, I'm from the Star Gathering Era, from now on we will be comrades-in-arms of the same crew, let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."

Xie Guan never knew that this person was an acquaintance, and he dragged him to the tea restaurant downstairs for a meal, and somehow became good friends with him as "a close friend".

No wonder Li Yan usually has no friends in the entertainment industry.

"What happened to Li Yan?" Xie Guan said, "Have you eaten your rice? You have such a big prejudice against him."

Wang Ruolun let out a "yo" and said sourly; "Have you two known each other for more than 24 hours, and your elbows are in a hurry to turn away?"

"It's reasonable, if you turn inward, you'll break it," Xie Guan slowly flipped through a page of the script, and said, "He has a bit of a temper, but he's not as low in EQ as the internet says. What are you angry about?"

Wang Ruolun was brutally betrayed by his good brother, and spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"Li Yan doesn't smoke very much, you'll know after staying with him for a long time," Wang Ruolun flicked the cigarette end into the ashtray, and said with a smile, "But I can guess why he always wants to be your friend."

"Huh?" Xie Guan was aroused by his curiosity.

"Who is the first brother in the age of stars, do you still remember?" Wang Ruolun said, "I heard that you beat Zhong Guanhua into an idiot in the film crew. The enemy of the enemy is a friend. Of course Li Yan wants to win you over."

Xie Guan: "Where did the fake news come from, who beat him?!"

Wang Ruolun was still embellishing: "Anyway, no matter who beat him, Zhong Guanhua was very happy when he was beaten. And you also beat Zhang Heshan, isn't that true?" He concluded emotionally: "You are always in the circle now. It has a vicious reputation, which makes people frightened."

Xie Guanyuan was stunned.

After Lin Yao heard the news, she even praised him for his good luck. Nowadays, the outside world depreciates the idol artist's professional quality more than praises it. Being appreciated by the director will make his future road much easier.

Xie Guan had never had such a smooth audition before.Because the former owner Xinghui Film and Television was in decline, the company's artist role was cut off at every turn. The director had just praised him for his good acting skills, and any star would be parachuted into the group on the back foot.The more times he was slipped, he gradually got used to doing a lot of useless work.Cast the net widely so that only one or two small fish and shrimp are caught in the end.

Now Xihua Entertainment is standing behind him, let alone intercepting other people's roles, at least he doesn't have to worry about the finalized roles being easily intercepted again.

Thinking of Xihua, Xie Guan's thoughts involuntarily turned and fell on Huo Mingjun.

From the time he showed up, everything seemed to be going well.

There are many factors of human change in this, but it is more of a superstition like luck.Huo Mingjun helped him too much again and again, and the so-called "his-hit nobleman" was nothing more than that.

Xie Guan was baking pancakes over and over again on the creaking old wooden bed, and finally he was so annoyed by the sound of the bed, he got up angrily to look up the recipe.

Before joining the group, he still had a very grand and solemn thing to do—invite Huo Mingjun to dinner.

Xie Guan couldn't imagine what would happen if Huo Mingjun didn't eat to his satisfaction, probably the whole building would be bulldozed by Huo Dong's order.

Director Pang contacted professional martial arts players for guidance and training for several leading actors, because each person learns different martial arts methods, and there are also professional teachers to teach some basic moves.At first, Xie Guan thought that he had a little background in martial arts, and it would not be too difficult to practice. Who knew that the Chen-style Tai Chi disciple whom the director had hired took a few glances at him, and shook his head again and again: "It's all showy fists and embroidered legs, just for show."

Xie Guan had no choice but to grit his teeth and follow him from the zama stance, learning new and old Tai Chi forms, pushing hands and equipment.The old gentleman intensively studied Lao Zhuang's Book of Changes, and practiced in the morning and taught in the afternoon.Xie Guan hasn’t taken a culture class for many years, and every day he memorizes the Dafa of “As Yang Qi rises, it becomes Yang, and as Yang Qi descends, it becomes Yin” and “hair becomes the tip of blood, blood becomes the sea of ​​Qi”.

When it was the appointed day for dinner, Huo Mingjun had someone drive him to the gate of Xie Guan's community, and he found it by himself according to the address Xie Guan sent him.The roads in the community are not only narrow, but also full of illegal parking.His Bentley is easy to collide with electric cars when he drives in.

Huo Mingjun didn't care, he was afraid of scaring the owner of the electric car.

Xie Guan lived on the fourth floor, and he could smell the aroma of vegetables as soon as he arrived on the second floor.

The negotiation with Longfeng Group is coming to an end, and the project of Cuipingshan Villa Resort is inviting bids. Huo Mingjun is in charge of several large real estate projects at the same time, so he loses his appetite when he gets busy.Maybe it was because he was finally relaxed. At this moment, he smelled the fragrance in the corridor, and he felt as if his stomach suddenly woke up.

Xie Guan hurried over to open the door for him with a frying spoon in hand, and then rushed back to the kitchen after saying "you can do it yourself".

Huo Mingjun changed his shoes at the door, and walked into the living room with ease.Wherever he goes, he has a calmness of "walking in the garden", completely without the formality of a newcomer.

The one-bedroom, one-living room is small in size and the ceiling is not high. Huo Mingjun's 1.8m[-] standing is very depressing.But the room was tidy, and Xie Guan had nothing to hide from others, the bedroom door was wide open, and the bed furnishings inside could be seen at a glance.

Huo Mingjun sat down on the single sofa calmly. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a brown bottle and some plasters in the cabinet under the TV. He got up to take a look, and found that they were just unpacked medicinal wine and traumatic plasters.

His face sank immediately, he put the things back where they were, and turned to go to the kitchen.
