Celestial Master [entertainment circle]

The audition will be held in a film and television building in Shanghai, half a month after Luo Shifang received the script.

When Luo Shifang arrived at the scene, he found that there were only five people waiting including him, and three of them were young actors whose acting skills and popularity have been affirmed.

Although the other two have never met before, from the image point of view, they are also very suitable for the setting of Star Chaser: sunny and handsome, with a stable and simple temperament, but with an indescribable charm.

"I knew Shifang that you would come too."

After realizing that someone was coming again, everyone present raised their heads. Among them, Mu Feng's eyes lit up when he saw Luo Shifang, and he hurried forward to give him a warm hug.

Among the other people, two nodded reservedly to Luo Shifang, and one showed shock but hesitated.

Mu Feng pulled Luo Shifang aside and said in a low voice, "This time there are not many competitors, but they are all carefully selected, so from another perspective, the competition is actually quite fierce."

In addition to Luo Shifang and Mu Feng, there is also Guan Wenkang, who was born as a child star and has already made achievements in the film industry. Although he does not have any TV dramas in China, he has starred in no less than ten movies, each of which has won awards. This is the first time for him to audition for a TV drama, and he obviously values ​​this opportunity very much.

Mu Feng continued to introduce: "There are two people you haven't met before. Among them, the one wearing a vest is a model who is still in college, and the one wearing a tracksuit is a retired long-distance runner. You and them are more in line with Chasing Stars." It can even be said that this character is naturally designed for you."

As he said that, Mu Feng sighed again: "Guan Wenkang and I are only about [-]% similar to Star Chaser, but there is an acting bonus. Looking at it all together, you have the greatest chance of winning among all the people at present. Knowing whether there will be newcomers coming in the future, let's just stay here and have a good chat, don't worry about other people."

Luo Shifang nodded, unless it was like he and Mu Feng were already familiar with each other, otherwise everyone is a competitor, there is no need to make a relationship at this time.

"Speaking of which, brother, you are much stronger than before."

Under the circumstance that people in the circle he knew generally gained weight after the New Year, Mu Feng who had gained muscle was simply fresh and refined.

Hearing this, Mu Feng immediately withdrew from the regret of "[-]% of not getting the role" and proudly said:

"That's not true. Ever since I listened to your advice, I've worked hard to build muscle, and now I can be considered a tough guy."

At this moment, Luo Shifang's cell phone vibrated. He picked it up and saw that it was Yan Yuan who had sent the message.

Xiao Luo's Mr. Yan: Has the audition started yet?

Shifang: Not yet, it seems that there are still people not present.The competition is fierce this time, and I hope to get this role.

Xiaoluo's Mr. Yan: You can do it, don't be nervous, you have been polishing this role for half a month, and I have seen your hard work.

Although Yan Yuan is currently working in the company, Luo Shifang lives in the Rubik's Cube studio, and the distance between the two of them spans more than half of China, but as long as you turn on the video call, you can see each other's face, so Luo Shifang's efforts, Yan Yuan It's true that it all fell into place.

Shifang: Although there is pressure, there is no tension and it will not affect performance.

Xiaoluo's Mr. Yan: You are the only superhero in my mind.

Of course, if Luo Shifang fails to get the role of Star Chaser, it must be because the other party has no vision. Then, as a good man who cares about his partner, he can buy the IP of other superhero characters, and then hire the top team to shoot and produce .

The Xiyuansi family's indemnity is in their hands, so they might as well use it to make movies as an investment.

Luo Shifang raised the corner of his mouth, turned off his phone, and met Mu Feng with a slightly meaningful expression.

"Little brother, you are quite relaxed now."

Luo Shifang said seriously: "There must be pressure, but it must be moderate. We have to regulate our emotions. If brother is very nervous, I can read a scripture."

"Come on, then I'm afraid I'm going to relax and fall asleep."

Mu Feng shrugged his shoulders. Of course he knew that Luo Shifang definitely had a problem, and it was at the level of his emotional life.

—— Angry, he was still single, but was surpassed by a younger brother.

However, he did not continue to ask, but changed the subject without a trace.

During this period, the two understood each other's meaning just by making eye contact.

The meaning behind Mu Feng's words: Little brother, do you have a relationship life?

Luo Shifang's eyes: Yes, they are seriously dating.

Well, that's about it.

On the other side, as soon as Zhu Jun walked into the office with the documents, he saw his president's slender and beautiful fingers moving rapidly on the keyboard into afterimages, and a smile appeared on the other side, and he was immediately shocked. Then he was overwhelmed with admiration.

It's really terrifying to love your work so much.

Zhu Jun carefully put the document on the desk, and silently exited the office.

……

When there were only 10 minutes left before the audition officially started, the last person who participated in the audition was late.

"Sorry, I shouldn't be late."

There is a default rule when participating in the audition meeting: the later the person who arrives, the bigger the seat.

Although this rule is not absolute, generally speaking, in many important occasions, the person who enters and speaks at the latest is probably the most powerful one.

Even if they are late, artists often apologize on the surface in order not to offend others, but not only did the visitors not mean to apologize, but on the contrary, their tone was somewhat condescending, which made everyone curious gaze.

——What kind of weirdness is it that dares to play big names here?

I saw a handsome young man with famous brands from head to toe coming arrogantly, followed by a beautiful woman in a black suit and sunglasses, with the word "Bi Wang" clearly engraved on his forehead.

Everyone present: emmmmm...

The visitor didn't look like an entertainer, but rather a young master from a rich family.

At this time, among the few people, Guan Wenkang recognized the other party: "I remember you are... Tang Changfeng?"

Looking at the others, they were still out of the situation, and obviously had no impression of this man named Tang Changfeng.

Luo Shifang opened the search engine, and then successfully got the other party's news: Chinese mixed race, opened an entertainment company, said to be a well-known rich second generation, played supporting roles in several big-budget movies and TV dramas, and also participated in He has made guest appearances and released several singles. Because of his appearance, he has accumulated a certain reputation overseas and has a rich emotional life.

However, there are many people who are famous overseas but unknown in China, and Luo Shifang and others do not pay attention to overseas entertainment circles, which also causes embarrassment that they do not know each other.

Because Guan Wenkang recognized Tang Changfeng first, the latter naturally responded immediately.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Guan? I remember that we have cooperated twice. Your acting skills are very superb and impressive."

Tang Changfeng then swept his gaze around, and finally landed on Luo Shifang: "My real name is Changfeng Tang Alipus, and my Chinese name is Tang Changfeng. I came here this time to compete for the role of Star Chaser." .With all due respect, your temperament... huh, it seems that you are all a little bit worse."

--temperament?

Mu Feng twitched the corners of his mouth unobtrusively: They really don't have the aura of forcing the king, so aren't they afraid of being beaten with this appearance?

"Hello, Mr. Tang." After Luo Shifang responded briefly, he continued to look at the phone without giving the other party another look.

Tang Changfeng frowned. It was obvious that Luo Shifang's reaction made him a little displeased, but in the end he didn't say anything, just sat on the sofa, raised Erlang's legs, and closed his eyes to rest.

The scene returned to silence.

Not long after, a staff member reminded everyone to enter the arena one by one, and the first person to enter the arena was Guan Wenkang.

Three minutes later, Guan Wenkang reappeared in front of the crowd. Even though he tried his best to keep calm, there was still a little disappointment in his eyes, and he knew clearly that this role was probably not destined for him.

The audition after Guan Wenkang was Mu Feng.

After the same 3 minutes, the latter also walked out helplessly, and told Luo Shifang about the audition.

There are no less than 20 people in charge of the review this time, including directors, producers, heads of investors, and even Martian actor Antonio Downs. Because he intends to create the first superhero from China, "Star Chaser" "This project has been given special attention. Given that there are all Martian actors, there is likely to be a linkage in the follow-up.

"I was asked to perform boxing for 1 minute, and then I was asked to show the four emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, and hate in 20 seconds based on my understanding of Star Chaser, and ten cameras monitored the details of my performance. Capture, in the last 2 minutes, let me talk about my views on Star Chaser and explain why I act like that.”

Mu Feng sighed: "Obviously, I didn't get their satisfaction."

"Why? Brother, your acting skills are recognized." Luo Shifang asked strangely.

Mu Feng shrugged: "Although we are attacking the Chinese market, we still have to take into account the old audience, so we must take care of all aspects. I think my acting skills are remarkable, but the most important image condition is not as good as yours. In other words, I It kind of makes them face-blind."

In order to better fit the roles, today Mu Feng and Guan Wenkang coincidentally wore almost the same standard school uniforms, just like Chinese people are prone to face blindness when looking at Westerners, these two are standard Chinese decent youth looks , with sword eyebrows and star eyes, regular facial features, and a straight figure. Almost immediately after the performance, he heard someone comment in English, "This one seems a bit like the one just now".

In short, when the recognition of the same role is blurred, no matter who plays the same role, Guan Wenkang and Mu Feng are both eliminated.

"It's okay, I will have an audition for "Dream Invasion" soon, and then we will act together again!" Mu Feng quickly cheered up.

After that, models and retired long-distance runners also participated in the audition successively. It took a total of 10 minutes, about 5 minutes each.

The former left sadly, while the latter couldn't hide his excitement, and came out with an autograph in his hand.

Boy, whatever the audition results, in another sense, this guy has already won.

Staff: "Mr. Luo Shifang and Changfeng Tang Yalips please enter together."

Two names were called at once, and they were allowed to enter the arena together. Everyone who hadn't left immediately showed astonishment.

These two can be said to be the most suitable two of the six people present today, and they are indistinguishable from each other.

Tang Changfeng hooked the corner of his mouth, and reached out his hand to Luo Shifang: "It's a pleasure to perform with you."

Even out of politeness, Luo Shifang shook his hand back.

And almost as soon as he shook his hand, the other party suddenly started to exert force.

This trick was experienced by Luo Shifang and Tantai Lingyu when they first met.

However, Tang Changfeng used brute force compared to Tantai Lingyan who used spells to try to make him deflate.

And its strength is very strong, with the level of the third-level intermediate period.

However, for Luo Shifang, this is just the past tense.

As soon as he exerted a little force, Tang Changfeng showed pain and loosened his grip.

"Then let's work together."

In view of Luo Shifang's extremely sincere expression, it was Tang Changfeng's fierceness at that moment that was particularly bluffing. Compared with the confident and proud expression just now, he was simply convinced that he "could not lose money by stealing chickens."

The latter snorted coldly, with a little haze in his eyes.

After entering the arena, more than [-] people's eyes fell on the two of them at the same time, and ten cameras were placed in all directions to conduct investigations without blind spots.

The director's name is Margaret Rose, and she is a female director who is very capable in producing superheroes and sci-fi dramas. Last year's anti-hero large-scale drama "The First Season of the Black Robe Judgment" is exactly that. From her hand.

The first time she saw Luo Shifang, her face showed joy:

"Wow~ I really like him very much. Compared with the exquisite gentleman next to him, he naturally has a strong vitality, like sunshine, like rain, like mountain peaks. Although the performance of the previous few people is also quite good. Not bad, but I still think he's the best."

The producer snorted and said, "Isn't he recommended by you, Ms. Margaret. But speaking of it, I didn't expect that the real person is more attractive than the camera... But, I still think You should think carefully about the gentleman next to him, he is not only a film and television upstart who has gained fame in recent years, but also a powerful and wealthy second generation, I think audiences in our country may like him more."

Margaret rolled her eyes.

Producer: "Well, including the gentlemen involved in the investment, they also have the same idea as me."

Luo Shifang has just released "Fenmen Village", but there are no other famous overseas works, and he is more inclined to the Chinese market; while Tang Changfeng, as a familiar face, is more inclined to the Western market.

"Then let's see how they audition and decide."

Margaret clapped her hands and said gently: "The reason why you two came here together is because you are the most favorite candidates of our crew, and you have been arguing endlessly, so we want you to make a gesture, I don't know how you two Thought?"

Luo Shifang asked in puzzlement, "Show?"

"I agree." Tang Changfeng agreed immediately.

"Yes, gestures." The producer answered Luo Shifang's doubts: "From boxing skills, to acting skills, to understanding of the role of Star Chaser, we hope that you can express your true thoughts, not too much. More normative things. The time...just five minutes, let’s start with boxing.”

The Star Chaser is set to be the descendant of China's ancient martial arts, and his first-hand boxing skills are superb, so it is really normal to ask to perform boxing skills.

Tang Changfeng squinted his eyes, obviously thinking that he should be able to avenge himself, and said arrogantly: "Please give me more advice."

"To each other." Luo Shifang clasped his fists and bowed slightly. The Chinese etiquette in the hearts of foreigners is displayed in this subtle gesture.

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Changfeng threw a punch and hit Luo Shifang's door directly, with a roar.

Apparently, the people who watched the gestures between the two did not expect such a merciless scene. They were stunned on the spot when they heard the "swish" sound of the air being torn apart.

"boom!"

Luo Shifang also punched, hitting the opponent's fist right in the face. His expression was calm and dignified, as if he was facing a very powerful enemy.

Director Margaret moved a little closer to the screen, her eyes lit up: there is a play!

Tang Changfeng felt the strength in his hands, frowned, and increased his strength.

Luo Shifang showed a look of pain very cooperatively, his strength was broken, and his figure tumbling in the air for a while, then landed firmly on the ground.

"not bad."

Tang Changfeng continued to bully him, while Luo Shifang was looking for a breakthrough between passive counterattack and active attack, punching to the flesh, and the two sides fought evenly for a while.

In the last minute, he lifted one leg violently, kicking the opponent flying, and then pursued the victory, squatting on the roof in a way that violated gravity, rushed down, and punched the opponent.

With a "bang", Tang Changfeng fell to the ground.

From Luo Shifang's point of view, the last attack was a bit redundant, but even from the perspective of an insider, he couldn't make a mistake, and it was particularly interesting.

"Assignment."

5 minutes, exactly on time.

Luo Shifang reversed his exhausted posture just now, and instantly calmed down.

His previous difficult state was nothing more than acting. In fact, Tang Changfeng didn't hit him at all. From the beginning to the end, the opponent was in his rhythm.

On the contrary, Tang Changfeng knelt on one knee, gasping for breath, looking very embarrassed.

After pondering for a moment, Margaret smiled.

"It seems that there is no need for follow-up competitions. I think Luo Shifang is very good."

The producer nodded: "I have the same idea as you, what do you think, Antonio?"

"Of course it is Mr. Luo Shifang. I think he is the star chaser. I am very much looking forward to a new member of the superhero team." Antonio Downs, the Martian actor, said.

Investors in the back who were more supportive of Tang Changfeng, after watching this gesture, most of them turned their backs and became more supportive of Luo Shifang.

"Are you kidding me?"

Seeing that this group of people canceled even the follow-up competition, Tang Changfeng's expression became gloomy uncontrollably, "Since you all supported Luo Shifang from the beginning, why do you want me to come?"

Margaret smiled slightly.

Tang Changfeng's attitude made her feel unhappy.

"Don, we didn't play tricks on you. You should look at what the camera recorded. This can already be broadcast as a high-energy segment in a movie. Luo Shifang has withstood the test of ten shots, became the protagonist, and even completed A script, and you... have become a villain."

This gesture was indeed just a gesture at the beginning. At first everyone just wanted to see who was stronger and better at punching and kicking.

How can a superhero have less fighting scenes? Excellent fighting scenes can be said to be an indispensable part, and audiences love to watch them!

However, after looking at it, it was obvious to everyone that the rhythm fell entirely on Luo Shifang.

Luo Shifang's expressions and movements are especially dramatic in the camera, and the word "justice" is almost engraved on his face, which makes everyone subconsciously want to cheer for him, "Come on! Down with the evil!"...

On the other hand, Tang Changfeng, either the camera is stuck, or the back view and movements are more intriguing than the facial expressions. Occasionally there are close-ups, which also reveal indescribable gloom and anger.

The performance of the latter is obviously contrary to the personality of Star Chaser.

When everyone subconsciously wants Luo Shifang to win, it can be considered Tang Changfeng's failure.

"One more thing, you may not have noticed that Mr. Luo Shifang's attack method is more in line with the Star Chaser in the original comics." Antonio Downs, who played the role of The Martian, said with great interest, "The last punch, isn't it just chasing each other?" Is it one of the famous stunts of the star-Meteoritecollision (meteorite impact)?"

Starchaser has many stunts, but in the existing 2D animation "Heroes of Heroes", which is the only time he appeared, the most impressive move is "Meteor Impact".

One of the person in charge of the investor suddenly realized: "No wonder I find the action so familiar, so I saw it when I was a child."

Star Chaser first appeared in the series of comics "Heroes Assemble" in the 50s, occupying a certain amount of space. Once it was launched, it gained a lot of attention with its excellent character design, and "Star Chaser" comics are the first. It was serialized in the mid-60s.

"Without relying on special effects or using wire, you can almost complete the famous stunts of superheroes in online comics!" The producer said with emotion, "Why do most of the Chinese people I meet know kung fu? China is really a magical country! "

This gesture can be said to be a crushing victory for Luo Shifang's temperament, acting skills, and boxing skills.

Who would have thought that at the very beginning, the approval ratings of both sides were evenly divided?

Margaret said politely: "So... I'm very sorry, Tang, we think that Mr. Luo Shifang is more suitable for this role than you. I hope you can understand our choice. You are very good, but this role is not suitable for you Please come here from the United States to participate in the audition, if you plan to travel in China for a while, then we wish you a smooth journey."

This is obviously a eviction order.

"Oh~ good! I understand, you will pay the price for fooling me."

Tang Changfeng left the audition venue with resentment, and the door was slammed shut with a loud bang.

If this door was not strong enough, I am afraid it would have collapsed by now.

Seeing that Tang Changfeng was so frightening, the rest of the people did not dare to touch the bad luck. They quickly swept their eyes to him and avoided it.

And Mu Feng couldn't help but be delighted in his heart: It seems that this coercion king also failed, and in the end it was his younger brother who got the role.

Everyone didn't know that after Tang Changfeng returned to the car with the beautiful bodyguard, he made an overseas call.

"It's me... it's this bastard. Originally, as long as he didn't cross China, we could still tolerate his existence. Now it seems that for the development of our lineage in the family, he must die."
