The whole entertainment circle thinks I'm confused

Chapter 551 Bankrupt Sisters [9]

"The first day of work today, how is it? Are you still used to the food? Not bad?"

"Yes, I almost forgot, you are going to the crew to do logistics, so you don't have to worry about what to eat."

"Don't worry about yourself, how much he pays for meals, you can eat well, eat and drink as you should, and rest as you should."

"Other people have a fixed number of working hours every day. Don't work overtime privately. You don't have money and you don't want to please, you know?"

"Where to live? Samsung single room? It's okay, if you have any problems, don't hide them, you know?"

"I'll arrange another task for you, to help me take a look at James, to see the character of this director..."

Chatted with Meng Dong for an hour about everything, but found that he didn't seem to need him, but in general, he felt much more at ease.

……

Early the next morning.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, Xia Yu and I both have a veto right in today's audition. No matter you have any favoritism towards Raymond or Vivian, please face up to your own position."

Zhuang Ling complained in her heart, 'Don't keep doing things where your ass doesn't decide your head! '

She snorted, "The acting skills are not good enough, we will never keep them just because they choose to stay."

At 25:[-], when going downstairs, Zhuang Ling warned Ashley.

Ashley rolled her eyes, "I know, I know, I will abide by the rules of the game that belong to this circle..."

Zhuang Ling and Ashley are used to it, they come to work early, have breakfast and a cup of coffee at the bankruptcy sister's apartment——

Refreshing.

After a night's rest, Ashley was full of energy. She changed her sleepiness yesterday and looked like she wanted to conquer Hollywood.

On the contrary, Zhuang Ling who took the first manuscript of "Twilight" back home, looks unchanged, but compared to yesterday's pure makeup, today she put on a layer of makeup cream, and the eyes should be covered with concealer?
Unlike Xia Yu and the others, Zhuang Ling looked less than thirty, but actually turned four.

For her, staying up late is still a bit of a burden, and the slight bloodshot eyes in her eyes mean that she doesn't know if she stayed up all night last night, at least she stayed up late.

Moreover, this night is late at night, a little later than usual until two or three o'clock——

"It's good to know!"

Zhuang Ling clasped her hands behind her neck, her shoulder-length hair was slightly loose, and a mullet head full of anger, messy yet aesthetically pleasing, wearing a pair of black framed glasses, full of youthful looks.

Xia Yu watched the two quarreling, and finally understood that among her fans, those CP-crazy mentality.

If this kind of thing is not on yourself, is it really interesting?isn't it?
Eight forty-six.

Several people came to the downstairs of another office next to it.

This is an office building where audition studios, recording studios, post-editing and other equipment are located.

Abbreviation.

【Equipment Department Building of Bankrupt Sister Film and Television Company】

"Who stipulates that an office building with only four floors cannot be called a building?"

This was what Xia Yu told Ashley at the time, and she couldn't refute it for a moment.

Emotionally, she is quick-spoken, but at work, she is much inferior.

I just happened to meet Brian Zhou riding a bicycle into the company. Although the bicycle is not new, the style is probably a few years old—but it has been well maintained by him as a whole. From the looks of it, I know that he cherishes it very much, and it is parked inside the building A corner of the parking lot.

He carried a bag on his back, and he carried an old cloth bag, which should be lunch, and a thermos cup hung beside it.

He glanced at the three of them indifferently, nodded slightly to express his friendliness, and then went straight into the equipment department building regardless of the three of them.

Let's not talk about Xia Yu's feelings, anyway, he glanced at Ashley first, and then exchanged glances with Zhuang Ling.

'Look, isn't this a no-holds-barred, touched by others' efforts? '

When Ashley turned her head, she sensed the half-smiling eyes of the two, speaking righteously.

"Effort, isn't it worthy of praise?"

"worth!"

The two didn't say a word.

'It is worthy of praise and appreciation, but don't be moved. Others work hard for themselves, not for the boss! '

Of course.If some people know how to be grateful, are talented, and are willing to work hard, the two of them don't mind being a bole.

Ashley is not stupid, she rolled her eyes, "After yesterday's lesson, I already understand, don't worry, I won't be stupid again!"

"It's best." Zhuang Ling gave a thumbs up.

The audition studio is on the second floor, and the recording studio is on the third floor. When the three of them arrived, the door to the small conference room next to the audition studio was already open—the windows were also open, and Raymond and Vivienne were sitting in two In the corner, I was flipping through the script I had printed...

Seeing the three people coming, they all nodded slightly, and it was rare for Zhuang Ling to smile at them.

"I'm very glad that you didn't become a deserter, and I'm also very glad that you were able to arrive early.

Hope today's audition goes well?I also hope that we can all get the results we want.

what do you say? "

"So the audition in 3 minutes, two, who will come first?"

Raymond and Vivian looked at each other, and Raymond said, "Ladies first, I choose to listen to Vivian's choice."

Vivienne was not hypocritical either, she said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Raymond, I don't think I'm fully ready yet, so men are preferred?"

"Okay!" Raymond expected it, took a deep breath, "no problem."

Zhuang Ling glanced at his watch, "Since you have already made a decision, the audition will officially start in two minutes and 35 seconds, I wish you good luck."

After finishing speaking, they didn't sit down in the conference room anymore, and the three of them walked into the audition booth next to them.

It is said to be an audition studio, but it is actually a rehearsal room of less than [-] square meters, which was used by Feitu Film and Television Company in the past to set up a crew for auditions.

Used for rehearsal.

It is said that it is not used much.

After all, even if it is a Hollywood TV series, not all crews use Waidu, and those with small production costs, basically, will not use it.

Because the round-trip reading is also counted as working time, a large part of the funds will be paid for the round-trip reading for a week or a month.

Feitu Film and Television Company, in the early stage, has money and strives for excellence, but in the later stage, if it has no money, it can save as much as possible.

Because of the advance notice, the company's cleaning staff had cleaned up the audition booth yesterday afternoon, and it was fairly clean.

Ashley set up the equipment, adjusted the angle, and did not sit back on the seat, but sat on the seat.

It's not that she can't sit still, she's aloof in private, but she's meticulous in her work.

Simply tense.

Although he said just now that he would not be stupid again, what Lei Meng said yesterday was like a "post for surrender", and it was the last time he was firmly chosen after experiencing betrayal again.

Ashley accepts that she has bad eyesight, but who doesn't have a chance?

She didn't want to refute Zhuang Ling, but she just felt that she couldn't recite it like this, right?
Zhuang Ling didn't have to complain about Ashley, seeing her nervous state, curled her lips and said:
"If his acting skills haven't deteriorated in this year, it shouldn't be a big problem to pass the test. You don't have to be so nervous."

"I hope so." But she still didn't sit down, even when Raymond came.

At [-]:[-], Lei Meng walked into the audition booth. His attire today was quite distracting.

The clothes are more everyday, mainly wearing a pair of glasses, which is more in line with the roles he auditioned, which is a trick.

But being able to have such a small design brain shows that you have put your heart into it.

Raymond bowed deeply, and asked calmly, "Can the audition start?"

Ashley, "Of course!"

The five script roles that Raymond got, sci-fi scientific research expert, murderer, mental patient, psychiatrist, old man living alone——

It covers a lot, and there is no real script for these five characters. The audition questions only give the identity and scene. A day of pondering.

For example, in the script of "Mindless Murderer", Zhuang Ling's title is - a serial murderer who has just finished committing a crime and evaded the police's pursuit.

place: night;
Plot: How to leave from the crime scene.

Raymond's performance is very good. He should have studied the relevant film and television, and his acting skills have improved a lot compared to "The Werewolf's Secret". Hurry up, he didn't balance the five scripts very well - when he performed it, he had the shadow of the performance of "Serial Events", which made the characters in this script not stand up."

But according to Zhuang Ling's rating of Raymond's acting skills, she gave this script a "C-".

Is it a pass?

Xia Yu gave a "C", and Ashley gave this role a "C+".

Science fiction research experts, mental patients, and psychiatrists, these three are quite satisfactory in Xia Yu's view, and they can't even be called barely up to standard. He still hasn't made a good idea of ​​the role. There is a big lack.

Three people scored, respectively.

Zhuang Ling, "D+, D, D";
Xia Yu, "D, D, D";
And this time, even Ashley couldn't take sides.

"D+, D, D+" she graded.

The first four scripts really made Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling lose interest. There is no way. The understanding of the role of Raymond duel is correct, and the performance is okay, but it is too formal. To be honest, this kind of performance is caught by the actor union in Hollywood. a lot;

Even Ashley felt a little uneasy, and felt a little sorry for Raymond.

"If you continue to perform like an assembly line factory, then Raymond's career in the bankrupt sister film and television company will come to an end..."

It would be a lie to say that you are not nervous, but are you looking forward to it?Ashley doesn't expect too much anymore.

Until the last episode of the audition, it really caught Xia Yu's eyes——

The last script, played by Raymond, is a widowed old man who has lost his wife and children.

If we talk about the first four roles, Raymond's performance is barely enough, but it's just that.

Then the performance of this old man living alone is already above the passing line.

His demeanor and behavior really have a shadow of "self", rather than the rigidity of the previous four characters, as if using the script given by Zhuang Ling, but "recording the script" to other film and television characters.

The performance of the old man living alone is really amazing, but not so much, mainly because the first four characters are a bit fragmented. Under this comparison, the splendor stands out.

After drinking half of the clear soup with little water, I suddenly had a bowl of egg custard with sesame oil, and I suddenly had an appetite.

When Raymond's performance ended, Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling looked at each other, and they both saw the same meaning in each other's eyes.

Finally Zhuang Ling spoke.

"Raymond, you should have spent most of your day studying the script of this 'old man living alone', right?"

Hearing Zhuang Ling's straight-forward question, Lei Meng showed no resistance in his eyes, and said, 'I knew I couldn't hide this matter'.

Lei Meng still had the shadow of an old man living alone. He slowly straightened his rickety back, his eyes were slightly vicissitudes and cloudy, and he nodded, explaining the matter very frankly from beginning to end.

He said, "I am very aware of my performance limit, I can't use a day to figure out all the five scripts, if I just study, I can only be half-baked, and any character may not be able to perform his character soul. "

"So, I chose to take an unusual path. I gave up the other four scripts, and found four other movie roles that were similar to the scripts. It took one-fifth of the time to complete their performances."

"The remaining four-fifths of the time are spent on shaping the character of the script "The Lonely Old Man"."

"I'm sorry, I didn't follow the steps you arranged, and I'm sorry."

There was indeed regret on his face, but in his eyes, he was quite calm and calm.

Only the clenched hands from time to time revealed a trace of tension in his heart.

To be able to grasp this level in one day, to be honest, both Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling feel that Leng Meng has reached the threshold for them to continue signing contracts.In other words, both of them thought it was, that Xiaoxiao had found a treasure.

In terms of character creation, even in "The Lonely Old Man", in the eyes of the two of them, Lei Meng is above pass.

But that also depends on who you compare with.

Zhuang Ling is at the professor level of the Film Academy, and the students he usually teaches are either drama talents with strong expressiveness, or those who specialize in this field, and their attainments are not low;
Xia Yu has taken a lot of experiential courses by herself, and the cooperators around her are all actor-level actors like Yu Junhao and Cheng Zhiqing.

In these years of cooperation, Wen Sui, who has the lowest level of acting, played the role of Jiang Lan with his true colors because of the fit of the role, and was trained by Dai Chengbi, all at a satisfactory level.

To put it bluntly, the quality of every crew she joined, not to mention the top ones in China, even in Hollywood, is also high-quality.

These talented professional actors can't be compared with Raymond who was born in a suit. After graduating from high school, he has been tossing around in various Hollywood crews. From a small transparent to now, he has finally improved.

But there are too many talents like him in Hollywood, so grab a handful.

What is Huaxia saying called?Thousand-mile horses often exist, but Bole doesn't often have them-Ashley is the Bole he likes on this horse.

Of course, both Xia Yu and Zhuang Ling sincerely hope that they will be able to achieve each other one day.

If you are optimistic about Raymond, you will definitely not be able to show it, just a normal review will do.

As for being careful?Who doesn't think carefully?

The interpretation of the script "The Lonely Old Man", the scores of the three people are as follows:
Ashley, "B"

Zhuang Ling, "C+"

Xia Yu, "C+"

After learning about Raymond's performance.

Zhuang Ling said: "The results will come out within one working day, you can take a good rest."

"Would you mind helping us inform Vivienne about the audition?"
