we are not friends anymore

Qiao Mingxi considered for a week, and finally chose "Bright Moon and Dark Clouds" among the two scripts.

Luna was not very surprised by his choice, sent a first version of the script to his mailbox, and told him to audition next week.

There are also two candidates for the role of Huang Yao. Qiao Mingxi is not the only one who is certain. For him, the audition next week may not be too easy.

Qiao Mingxi felt a little troubled after reading the biographies of the characters in the script.

The original work of "Bright Moon and Clouds" is written by a male author, who is not as delicate as the female author who is good at writing emotional dramas, but the skill is profound, and the characters are vividly drawn on paper in just a few strokes.However, there is a lack of a complete psychological description. For actors and screenwriters, they can only connect with the actions of the characters in the full text to figure out the characters' hearts at a deeper level.

Different from the gloomy and withdrawn little prince played by Qiao Mingxi and the cheerful and innocent Yan Shaowen, Mosa, the little wolf patriarch, is also taciturn, but the wolf's aloofness and fierceness are in his blood, and he may show his fangs at any time; Clan relatives suppressed him, and in order to really control the wolf clan, he had to hide his claws in the dark at any time.

Qiao Mingxi searched a lot of Mosa's information on the Internet, the author's interviews, fanarts written by fans, fanarts drawn by fans, and character analysis by readers. However, the more he read, the more differences there were in the details.

Until the day of the audition, he still hadn't figured out the character thoroughly.

The audition location was Huangyao's own post-production base. It happened that a movie was being filmed here with a green screen, so the team took advantage of the venue in their free time.

"Bright Moon and Dark Clouds" is a magnificent special effects fantasy drama. In addition to the scenes to be built by the crew, there are a large number of exterior scenes such as snow fields and seas that use special effects. Therefore, actors also spend most of their time in front of the green screen. shoot.

Mosa is the wolf king, and a lot of plots take place on the snowy field, so coming here to audition can also see to the greatest extent whether Mosa's actors are suitable for this shooting method.

When Qiao Mingxi arrived, the other two candidates hadn't come yet. More than half of the staff on the scene were the original cast of "Wolf Smoke". They were also very enthusiastic to see Qiao Mingxi, and some girls stuffed him with some snacks.

Makeup must be tested before the audition, and Mosa needs to wear special effect makeup. This day, it was just an audition and everything was simplified. Even so, Qiao Mingxi still had a thick layer of makeup on her face, and her skin was almost the same color as Snow.

Xiao Yan looked left and right beside him, looking extremely surprised.The photographer of the crew took a few photos of Qiao Mingxi's costume test, and then let him go to meet the audition director.

This day's audition director was Director Wang of the crew of "Wolf Smoke". When he saw Qiao Mingxi, he nodded and said only one word to him: "Act well, come on."

Qiao Mingxi thanked him politely, and took the script of the audition from the staff.He found a corner and sat down, looking down at the one-page script. The content was familiar, and he had read it in the complete script before.

It is the first meeting between Mosa and Feng Qizhen, the son of the emperor, on the snow field.

I haven't heard Luna say that Feng Qi's real candidate will come, most likely he acted in front of the air.

Qiao Mingxi closed her eyes and began to picture Mosa in her mind when she spoke.

As soon as Ji Yan parked the car, the staff who were entering and leaving saw him, and they all came over to greet him with a smile.

"Brother Yan."

"Brother Yan, why are you here?"

Ji Yan walked in and smiled at them: "Come work overtime for Brother Yuan."

The staff laughed when they heard the words: "Oh yes, Director Wang originally asked Brother Yuan to watch today's audition."

"What's wrong with Yuanda?"

"It probably hurt my stomach." Ji Yan shrugged, the staff laughed again, Ji Yan said a few words with them, and went straight to see Director Wang.

He was entrusted by Ding Xiangyuan to audition for an actor who came to see Mosa in his place.

This is Huang Yao's habit of doing dramas. During the role audition, the actors who have already been booked will accompany the audition, and they can also give some opinions when necessary.

At the end of the year, Ji Yan was going to be in the group to shoot the new film of Guoshi, so Huang Yao didn't let him try out the male lead when he was preparing for "The Bright Moon and Dark Clouds".Originally, he had nothing to do with this drama, but Director Wang trusted his acting skills and vision, and only blamed Ding Xiangyuan for being unreliable, and did not object to him.

When he entered the scene, all the actors of Mosa had already arrived, and they were getting ready with the same makeup and hair.

"Here?" Director Wang turned to see him, and beckoned him to sit down next to him, "Look carefully later, you are much more reliable than Xiang Yuan."

Ji Yan smiled, sat down and picked up the document on the table, paused when he saw the name on it, and looked at the actors of Mosa.

The person in the corner happened to turn his head at this moment and meet his gaze.

Qiao Mingxi was wearing the gray linen clothes of the Wolf Clan, the messy bangs in front of the hood covered her eyes somewhat, and some scars were drawn on her snow-white face, making her look a bit embarrassed.He was trying to figure out Mosa's reaction, but when he turned around, he still had a stubborn and rare ferocity.

After seeing Ji Yan, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately lowered his head and continued to read carefully the excerpts of the script that could be read almost at a glance.

At this time, he belatedly remembered that when he chose "Bright Moon and Dark Clouds", he hadn't thought of asking Luna if Ji Yan would appear in this drama produced by Huang Yao.

Ji Yan also didn't expect to see Qiao Mingxi here. He temporarily replaced Ding Xiangyuan to make soy sauce today. He originally thought that they were all Huang Yao's own actors, but he didn't expect that there would be foreign aid.

He read the biography of Mosa in his hand twice, lowered his head and frowned slightly.

The three actors auditioned for the same segment. The first one to appear on the stage was a newcomer that Huang Yao had been cultivating recently. He was a big boy with round eyes, and he didn't look like Mosa in appearance.

But when he stood in front of the camera, moved his facial features exaggeratedly, and turned his face down and expressionless, there was inexplicably the temperament of a young wolf king.

However, it is a newcomer after all. When speaking to the air, the flicker in his eyes made the staff on the side shake their heads.

Director Wang yelled to stop, then turned to Ji Yan and said, "Xiao Ji, go play with him."

Ji Yan nodded, quickly took another look at the script for this paragraph, and walked to the boy.

Qiao Mingxi in the corner was stunned for a moment, and pinched his left index finger nervously with his right hand.

With someone as a reference, the new boy got used to a lot, but that was all.

Even though Ji Yan was only wearing casual clothes, even if he only glanced at the script fragment, when he stood in front of the camera, his face was no longer Ji Yan's calm and introverted.He slightly raised his eyebrows, and his originally straight back slumped a little. Before he could speak, he was already that cynical young son of the Emperor.

In fact, he didn't give full play, the audition was for Mosa's actor, and he wanted to give the other party the maximum room to play.But is this boy a rookie, or was he suppressed by Ji Yan?

Director Wang shook his head and called to stop.

"Xiao Ji, you are right there." Dao Wang turned his head and greeted the second actor, "Next."

The boy stood up and walked towards the camera, Qiao Mingxi glanced there quickly, then lowered his head.

He squeezed his left index finger and pursed his lips.

The previous words were still on the thin page, but the scene originally simulated in his mind suddenly became blurred.

When he struggled to climb out of the snow, when he stood among the corpses of his clansmen who came to chase and kill him, when a human prince he had never seen reached out to him... What should he do?What should he say?

When standing in front of him was Ji Yan...it was Ji Yan...

"Brother Mingxi, the director is calling you." Xiao Yan whispered in Qiao Mingxi's ear.

Qiao Mingxi was taken aback for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, the people over there were all looking in her direction.

He lowered his head and pursed his lips, stood up and walked towards the green screen.

The sea of ​​clouds in the distance was rolling, and the flying snow was falling all over the sky, falling on the invisible snow field.

Mosa struggled to scrape away the snow that was pressing on his body, and moved his frozen limbs. He wanted to stand up, but his legs were limp, and with a dull sound, his knees hit the snow field.

He looked around blankly, the corpses of his clansmen were scattered all over the ground, and the blood that flowed out had long been buried by the snow.

"Hey, I'm alive." An idle male voice sounded above his head. He looked up and saw a young man in human costume leaning aside, looking at him leisurely.

It's you……

He wanted to speak, but just looked at each other quietly with red eyes.

The man spat out the withered grass in his mouth, and walked towards him: "How about it, are you willing to leave with me now?"

Mosa knelt on the ground, his teeth chattering from the cold, but he just watched the man walking towards him without saying a word.He was obviously in such a mess, but he still looked at the man with vigilant and suspicious eyes.

The person in front of him overlapped with Ji Yan in the dream, Qiao Mingxi suddenly lost his mind.

I seem to have said that, in fact, I don't need you.

With a "snap", Qiao Mingxi opened Ji Yan's hand.

The staff outside the camera were all taken aback.

In the script, this part of Mosa should no longer resist. Feng Qizhen pulled Mosa out of the snow, and the two young men clapped their hands vigorously on the vast snow field, forming an alliance from then on.

No matter what kind of thinking Qiao Mingxi had in opening the hand of "Feng Qizhen", it was not suitable for the future direction of the plot.

Besides, he didn't move after that, and just sat there as if in a daze.

Director Wang frowned: "Little Qiao?"

"Sorry, Director Wang." Ji Yan withdrew his hand, "I didn't act well just now, let's do it again."

As he said that, he took a step back, like an unintentional movement, but for Qiao Mingxi, he just exited the range that made him nervous.

Qiao Mingxi's eyelashes trembled violently, and he lowered his head and blinked quickly a few times, as if adjusting his facial expression.He took a deep breath that no one could notice, then raised his head and stood up slowly.

The daze in his eyes disappeared, and he pursed his lips slightly, he was already that stubborn little wolf king.

When Lin Zining saw Chen Lu again, he almost wanted to rush into the kitchen and chop him into pieces with a knife.

Lin Ziyu, who played the role of the door of the bedroom, probably just took some medicine and was taking a nap, the whole room was quiet, so Chen Lu's rapid breathing was particularly ear-piercing.

"Chen Lu..." Lin Zining murmured, almost gnashing his teeth, he rushed forward and grabbed Chen Lu by the collar, and lifted him fiercely in front of him, "Chen Lu!"

Lin Zining was actually not tall, but at this moment he could easily pull over Chen Lu who was taller than him by more than a head.He looked at the other person's face that was so thin that it was almost sunken, and his teeth were trembling with hatred.

"I should have thought...it was just a gamble...how could you just bet..." He stared at the pills scattered all over the floor, and said with hatred, "Chen Lu, why don't you die?"

"A-Ning..." Chen Lu frantically grabbed the pills on the ground, stuffed them into his mouth in embarrassment, and then desperately pulled Lin Zining's trouser legs, "Please, A-Ning, save me... If you don't save me, What will Xiaoyu do? Xiaoyu will go crazy without me!"

"With you, I'm going crazy!" Lin Zining kicked him away. There was a rush of anger in his chest, but he had nowhere to vent it.He gave Chen Lu a hard look, turned around and rushed into the bedroom to wake Lin Ziyu up.

"He already knows!" Chen Lu roared in embarrassment.

Lin Zining paused, and turned his head with all his strength: "What did you say?"

Chen Lu looked at him and smiled, his smile was a little distorted: "He already knew about it, that I gambled, that I was infected with this thing... It's useless for you to tell him, he believes that I will quit, and he also believes that there is a brother like you." Now, nothing will happen..."

"...Bastard." Lin Zining rushed up and kicked again, his chest heaved violently, he suddenly reacted, his eyes widened and he looked at the people on the ground, "Xiaoyu, he... did he touch it? You Did you let him touch it?!"

Chen Lu didn't answer, just stared at him and smiled.

Lin Zining fell into an ice cave for a moment.

His body swayed, and Chen Lu whispered again: "When will I pay back the 15 this time?"

Lin Zining looked at him for a long time, then suddenly smiled: "Why don't you die for me?"

Qiao Mingxi changed back into her clothes and left the audition scene with Xiao Yan.

He wasn't sure how he played today, probably not very well.Although the staff he knew said that he was most similar to Mosa in appearance, he still felt that he couldn't play Mosa's ruthlessness.

He actually likes this role quite a bit, but at this moment, he can't figure out whether he still wants it.

After the audition actors left, the staff cleaned up the scene, and Director Wang dragged Ji Yan to sit where he was discussing.

For the first time, he was a little distracted. The moment Qiao Mingxi opened his hand just now kept replaying in front of his eyes. He had actually seen the way the other party looked at him before.

Many days ago in the south, when he returned to the hotel after filming the scene of "Wolf Smoke", he heard familiar voices walking in the corridor.

The door of a room was open, and before he could see the scene clearly, he saw Qiao Mingxi's back first.That figure from the back was too familiar, and he wouldn't admit it.

Then there was the crisp sound of something falling on the ground. As soon as he got closer, he saw Qiao Mingxi throw something at Lin Zining.

In fact, he didn't feel that Qiao Mingxi was bullying others. The other party was sometimes stubborn, but never lost his temper.

He just asked what he was doing, but when Qiao Mingxi saw him, he froze in place with a pale face.

It was exactly the same expression as when he opened his hand just now.

Ji Yan thought that this was indeed the case, and it was the consequence that he had to admit after resolutely leaving.
