After returning to school, Xiao Yunhai began to carefully read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He carefully analyzed Lu Bu's character and habits, understood his life and psychology at every stage, thoroughly understanding Lu Bu inside and out. After doing all this, he practiced Lu Bu's various expressions alone in the room. At the same time, he designed a set of Sky Piercer Kung Fu. This was very important for him to get the role of Lu Bu.
During this time, Xiao Yunhai received some information about the audition from Yao Wenyuan's computer. From the information, there were two people who were the most threatening to Xiao Yunhai. One was He Hucheng, and the other was Lu Mengbin.
This He Hucheng was an outstanding student who graduated from Shanghai Film Academy. It was said that in school, he ranked first in all the exams. After graduation, he was valued by the boss of Hongda Media Company, Xia Hongda, and signed as a member of the company. In the past two years, he had taken on many TV dramas. Although they weren't too outstanding, his acting skills were remarkable, and he received many praises from film and television people.
As for the other character, Lu Mengbin, he wasn't an easy character to deal with. Like He Hucheng, he graduated from Shanghai Drama Academy. Because he played an important supporting role in a very popular TV drama, Hong Kong, two years ago, he became famous. Then, in less than a year, he took on three TV dramas in one go. His popularity soared, and his fans reached millions.
Xiao Yunhai found that after they became famous, they took on a lot of idol dramas that didn't have any effect on their acting skills. This made Xiao Yunhai feel that he was putting the cart before the horse.
For an actor, no matter how deep his background was, how good his image was, or how high his methods were, in the end, it still depended on his acting skills. If his acting skills were good, he didn't need to pull connections at all. After all, the director's vision was very sharp.
The two of them clearly didn't realize this and were only crazily gathering popularity. For some ordinary TV series, naturally, the higher the popularity, the better. But for a classic TV series like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, where there were so many movie emperors and quasi-movie emperors, if one didn't have acting skills or if one's acting skills weren't up to standard, it was almost impossible to get a role.
In this entertainment industry, the hierarchy was much stricter than the previous time and space. Those top-notch actors had very high statuses. Usually, they wouldn't take on roles. Once they did, it had to be a classic. Therefore, they would usually test the quality of the actors who acted with them. Only when they were satisfied would the production crew have the possibility of signing them.
For example, Xiao Yunhai was going to audition for the role of Lu Bu. Other than the director Hong Tianchou and the producer Zhou Qing, there was also Sun Yanjun, who played the role of Liu Bei, and Wang Guoan, who played the role of Cao Cao. Both of them were veterans in the film and television industry and had acted for much longer than Xiao Yunhai.
As Lu Bu often had to deal with Cao Cao and Liu Bei in the movie, the two of them came to the audition site to see if the actor met their standards. Therefore, they were also the judges and played a very important role in the casting process. If an actor wanted to succeed, they had to pass both of their tests.
Regarding this, Xiao Yunhai was still very confident. This was because through the training of dozens of movies in his previous life and the knowledge he learned in the film school in this life, Xiao Yunhai's acting skills had improved rapidly after combining the two. According to his speculation, his acting skills should be between A-list and top-notch actors. If he could get a role that was suitable for him, he could even perform at a higher level.
The time for the audition soon arrived. After a few days of sufficient preparation, Xiao Yunhai was now full of confidence. Purely in terms of acting skills, he believed that this role belonged to him.
Xiao Yunhai took a taxi at the school gate. It took him a full hour to arrive at his destination. As soon as he looked up, he saw the Jinbao Island Hotel's retro signboard outlined by the sunlight. It was beautiful and dazzling.
He stood at the entrance of the hotel and stretched. Looking at the people coming and going at the entrance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. He remembered that during his audition in the previous time, it was also like this.
At this time, a figure walked in his direction. Xiao Yunhai turned his head and saw a familiar face. It was He Hucheng.
Unfortunately, compared with He Hucheng in the photo, although he also had good facial features and was handsome, his expression was very arrogant. He gave people a feeling of being overbearing and insufferably arrogant.
After seeing Xiao Yunhai, He Hucheng frowned and felt that he was a little familiar. The fat man next to him was very clever. He found a document for He Hucheng and showed it to him. Then he showed Xiao Yunhai a bright smile.
Xiao Yunhai thought that the other party was showing a friendly gesture. When he was about to respond with a smile, he heard He Hucheng's words immediately. "Don't daydream!" Then he gave Xiao Yunhai a thumbs up, laughed, and walked quickly up the stairs of the hotel.
Xiao Yunhai was stunned. Then he shook his head helplessly and gave him a very bad evaluation. This guy would definitely not go far in the entertainment industry.
According to the requirements of the interview notice, Xiao Yunhai came to the elevator. Just as he was about to press the button to go to the third floor, he heard a hurried voice. "Brother, don't press the button. Wait for me."
Xiao Yunhai looked up and saw a young man in his twenties running in front of him. He was sweating profusely. As he shouted, he ran quickly into the elevator.
"Thank you, brother. My name is Wang Cheng. I'm here for the audition. We should be opponents. "After Wang Cheng entered the elevator, he reached out his hand to Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "You guessed right. I'm also here for the audition. My name is Xiao Yunhai. Nice to meet you."
The two shook hands and the elevator quickly reached the third floor.
As soon as the elevator door opened, the low noise came out. The corridor was unusually lively.
There weren't many people here for the audition today. There were only about twenty people. They were all here for the main roles. It wasn't a large-scale public audition. Those who could get the opportunity to be interviewed were probably actors with connections.
"Hey, two more newbies. I say you guys should go back. It's impossible to get chosen. It's a pure waste of everyone's time."
Xiao Yunhai turned his head to look. A guy with dyed blonde hair and dressed in a somewhat nondescript manner leaned against the wall and looked at them with a smile that wasn't a smile.
Wang Cheng was angry and wanted to go up and argue, but Xiao Yunhai quickly grabbed his hand and shook his head, indicating that he shouldn't go over.
There was another guy in strange clothes beside that person. Seeing that the two of them were ridiculed, he continued, "Brother, don't say anymore. You don't want to hurt their self-esteem. What if a meat pie falls from the sky and hits their heads? Wouldn't you be offending the future film emperor? Hehe. "
The others only glanced over and then went on with their own things in silence.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and asked, "Are you also here for the audition? Why don't I think you guys are? "
"Bullshit, how can we not be? I've filmed several big movies. "
"That's right. We're quite strong. A newbie can't compare to us."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Then do you know who are the teachers here for the audition today? Teacher Hong Tianchou, Teacher Sun Yanjun, Teacher Wang Guoan. They're all top figures in the film and television industry. They're also old seniors in their fifties or sixties. The one thing they have in common is that they don't want to see juniors who don't learn well. Hehe? "
Xiao Yunhai stopped here. His eyes were strange. He looked at the two of them from top to bottom and then shook his head.
