Xiao Yunhai and the others turned a deaf ear to everyone's gazes. Their faces were solemn. Amidst the respectful greetings, they strode firmly through the crowd and walked into the audition meeting room.
Sitting in the main seat of the audition, Xiao Yunhai's heart was surging. "In my previous life, I struggled my whole life and didn't even get a lead role. But in this world, in less than a year, I became the director of a six-hundred-million-yuan drama. Life is really unpredictable."
Just as they sat down, Wang Cheng and Huang Bo came in with a waiter carrying a tea tray.
Wang Cheng placed cups of steaming Longjing tea on the table and waved his hand to let the waiter leave.
Yesterday morning, Xiao Yunhai called the two of them and asked them to come over in advance to set up the audition venue.
When the two of them heard that, they were naturally overjoyed and arrived before seven o 'clock.
Xiao Yunhai had already told them their names. After meeting, they quickly became friends.
They instructed the hotel staff to set up the venue and waited downstairs for Xiao Yunhai and the others to arrive.
At eight o 'clock, Xiao Yunhai and the others arrived at the hotel.
In the lounge on the first floor, Xiao Yunhai first auditioned the two of them.
Huang Bo played the imperial physician, Wen Shichu, while Wang Cheng played the role of Yongzheng's fourth son, Hong Li.
Huang Bo's acting skills were without a doubt. He was originally very hardworking, and after filming "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang," his acting skills became more mature.
He played the role of Wen Shichu to the fullest, and everyone nodded in approval.
What really surprised Xiao Yunhai was Wang Cheng. After the Spring Festival, this kid seemed to be a different person. The role of Qianlong was played by him, showing off his ability and wisdom. He received unanimous praise from everyone.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Kid, are you on steroids? Your acting is so good."
Wang Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "For this role, I practiced for an entire Spring Festival and even attended two super expensive acting training classes. Only then did I have some effect."
Wang Guoan smiled and said, "Very good. If you had such acting skills back in the Three Kingdoms, I would have recommended you for better roles. "
Wang Cheng happily said, "Thank you for your praise, Teacher Wang."
Wang Guoan looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "I didn't expect you to have such good eyesight. Purely in terms of acting skills, Huang Bo could almost enter the A-list in the entertainment industry. Wang Cheng should be at the top of the B-list, almost reaching the threshold of the A-list. I was originally worried that these two roles would be given to the wrong people, but now it seems that my worries were groundless. The two of them are much better than those B-list and C-list celebrities. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "If they can get Teacher Wang's praise, I, as their brother, will feel proud."
After the roles of Huang Bo and Wang Cheng were confirmed, Xiao Yunhai let them act as the crew members.
In the audition room, Xiao Yunhai took a sip of tea and said, "Neck, is everyone outside here?"
Huang Bo said, "Everyone has been here for a long time. It's just that the three roles of Hua Fei, An Lingrong, and Shen Meizhuang need makeup, so the audition will be a little late. "
Because these three roles were too important, Xiao Yunhai asked Zhou Yun to bring a few makeup artists to dress up the actors for the audition, so as to avoid problems due to the difference between modern and plain clothes.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then let's audition for Huan Bi first."
Huang Bo nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call someone."
The first to enter was Xiao Yunhai's junior sister, Lin Lu.
She stood in the center of the venue, bowed to Xiao Yunhai and others, and said gracefully, "Hello teachers, I'm Lin Lu, a freshman at the Yenching Film Institute."
"Yenching Film Institute?" Wang Guoan turned to look at Xiao Yunhai and said with a smile, "This should be your junior sister."
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "To be exact, she's my junior sister. She's a new disciple of my teacher, Yao Wenyuan. "
"Oh, it seems that this little girl is not simple to be able to catch Old Yao's eye," Wang Hong said.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Let's take a look first. Lin Lu, you should have read the part of the script I gave you, right? "
Lin Lu nodded and said, "Yes, Director Xiao."
"Come, tell me your understanding of this role."
Lin Lu was not afraid at all and said, "I think Huan Bi is a pitiful person. She's kind by nature, smart, and has a good way of doing things. But as an illegitimate daughter, she has a deep sense of inferiority in her heart. Although she later married the man she loved the most and became the side princess, she knew that her husband had always been concerned about her sister. If I were to act, I would act out the sadness hidden behind her smile. "
"Very good." Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "It seems that you've really put in the effort. But it's all talk and no action. Act out the part where Huan Bi gets married. "
Lin Lu had already memorized the script. She acted out the scene of Huan Bi's marriage smoothly like flowing water.
Xiao Yunhai asked Zhao Wanqing next to him and said, "Wan Qing, she's your maid. What do you think?"
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "She's both physically and spiritually. But she needs to pay attention to her posture when walking. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I'll hire a teacher to teach her the etiquette of the Qing Dynasty Palace. Lin Lu, you go back first. I'll call you when the time comes. "
Lin Lu nodded and bowed again, saying, "Thank you, teachers."
After Lin Lu left, Zhang Hong said with a smile, "This little girl is a good seedling. She doesn't have stage fright or pretentious. Very good. "
Xiao Yunhai drew a circle around Lin Lu's name and shouted, "Next."
The second person to come in was also a very beautiful little girl. But compared to Lin Lu, she was much worse. She was so nervous that she stuttered when she spoke. Her mental quality was very poor.
Xiao Yunhai had tried his best to speak to her in a gentle tone, but she was still trembling with fear. Xiao Yunhai shook his head helplessly and said, "You can go out first. We'll let you know the results of the audition."
The girl bowed deeply and left with a sullen face.
As the actors came in one by one, then performed one by one, and then went out one by one. Xiao Yunhai realized that the job of an audition judge was really not easy.
In the past, when he was auditioning, he saw that the judges were quite arrogant and fantasized about when he would be able to sit in that position.
But when he experienced it himself, he felt that this job was really boring.
However, it was not without benefits. Many of the supporting roles in "Empresses in the Palace" had been found suitable actors.
After a beauty who auditioned for the role of Jin Qingying left, Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Has everyone realized that the 'Empresses in the Palace' crew is simply a concentration camp of beauties?"
Yu Yuexian said with a smile, "It can't be helped. In the harem, there are either eunuchs, palace maids, or concubines. How can there not be many beauties?"
Zhao Wanqing said meaningfully, "Why? Seeing so many beauties, Director Xiao can't be moved by love, right? "
"Hahaha."
When everyone heard Zhao Wanqing's threatening words, they all laughed.
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "I wouldn't dare even if you beat me to death."
