Unscientific Movie King

Chapter 122 Finals, Gauze Steel
Zhao Jian opened the door and called out to the people chatting outside: "Qin Chuan, come over here first."

"okay."

"See you later, both of you."

As soon as Qin Chuan left, Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan felt very disappointed, because they were clearly the ones who arrived first.

Qin Chuan was the first to go in.

It seems a bit uncertain.

After entering the room, Qin Chuan greeted everyone one by one: "Hello Director Zhang, Hello Director Zhao, Hello Director Yu."

"Don't be nervous, sit down." Zhang Jizhong motioned him to sit down and chat.

Qin Chuan was not polite and sat down steadily. He felt the distance was a bit far, so he moved the chair closer.

Zhang Da Huzi didn't get straight to the point, but started a small talk: "I heard that you played in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils before?"

"Yes, that was probably my first play in my life." Qin Chuan smiled shyly, "I had just come to Beijing with the dream of becoming an actor. I didn't know anything. I was introduced to the crew as a minor role."

"Speaking of which, I have to thank Director Zhao and Director Yu. If the two directors hadn't promoted me to play You Tanzhi, I might still be playing a minor role today."

"It's mainly because of your hard work." Zhao Jian said, "Although we two were the ones who nominated you, it was Director Zhang who made the final decision. If you want to thank someone, thank him."

Qin Chuan was "shocked". Hearing about this for the first time, he stood up and bowed to Zhang Jizhong: "Director Zhang, thank you for giving me the opportunity."

"To be honest, I was very confused at that time. I had spent all my money and was about to go back home..."

Zhao Jian always felt that this sentence sounded familiar. He wondered when he had heard it before.

Zhang Jizhong looked at the boy's sincere face and was slightly moved. No wonder Zhao Jian and Yu Ming both said that he had a good character.

"You're welcome. Just like Zhao Jian said, it's because of your hard work that you deserve what you have today."

After they chatted for a while, Zhang Jizhong asked, "What do you think of the character of Yang Guo?"

"Director Zhang, I'm not afraid of being laughed at for saying this, but I've loved reading martial arts novels since I was a child. I'm familiar with all of Mr. Jin's works. I read them in elementary school, middle school, and high school. I didn't read them in college because I was too obsessed with them and didn't even make it to college."

"Among them, the character of Yang Guo is one that I like very much. Throughout his life, he has always gone his own way, challenged the secular world, and did not follow the rules, but at the same time he was affectionate and loyal to love..."

When talking about the novel, Qin Chuan was just bragging in the first half, but when talking about Yang Guo, he did have his own unique insights.

From wandering as a child to learning martial arts in Mount Zhongnan, becoming a disciple of Xiaolongnu, to the martial arts conference, and the Valley of Unrequited Love, he could recount every single event.

Zhang Jizhong and the other two nodded. In terms of diligence and hard work, he had passed the test.

"We have a makeup artist here, try putting on some makeup first."

After the makeup is done, it’s time for the audition, which is the big part.

Whether you have connections or rely on personal connections, having good acting skills and being able to handle the role is a must.

If the acting is not good, no one will be of any use.

Qin Chuan followed the staff into the dressing room. When he left, Huang Xiaoming was called over for a talk.

More than half an hour later, Huang Xiaoming went to try on the clothes and happened to meet Qin Chuan coming out.

Huang Xiaoming knew that this guy looked good in ancient costume, but he didn't expect him to be so good-looking. His heart skipped a beat.

Qin Chuan's ancient costume is even more outstanding than the camera.

Especially the vitality and youthfulness in her body, which is difficult to imitate at his age.

"Brother Xiao Ming, you are here too?"

Qin Chuan greeted with a smile.

Huang Xiaoming couldn't laugh. He felt that Qin Chuan was laughing at him: "Yes, you look good in ancient costume."

"Oh, I'm used to it. I didn't expect Director Zhang to give me this audition opportunity. I'll go over first and talk later."

The calmer Qin Chuan smiled, the more panicked Huang Xiaoming became.

All of those who auditioned had some tricks up their sleeves, especially Nie Yuan, who jumped directly to the investment company.

Qin Chuan is no pushover either.

I am the most honest!

Back in the audition room, Qin Chuan saw Zhang Da Huzi and his two men.

"good."

"Good."

Qin Chuan's makeup and hairstyle are similar to Huang Xiaoming in later generations, with the same waist-long hair, dragon beard, and cloth clothes.

However, due to his age, his facial features are more delicate and his smile is more sunny.

Zhang Jizhong looked at it carefully and said, "Do you know Kung Fu? Show me some skills."

"of course can."

Qin Chuan performed a set of boxing techniques on the spot. His movements were clean and neat, his posture was light and agile, and his boxing techniques were powerful.

Martial arts is his strong point.

Wusheng's physique also makes him look good in clothes. He has solid muscles and a broad frame, and he doesn't look loose at all.

Next, Zhang Jizhong tested his acting skills.

It is still easy to grasp.

"Our budget for this play is limited. What is the highest salary you can accept?"

Finally, Zhang Jizhong talked about the issue of treatment.

In fact, everyone knows that anyone who can come for the audition is good and has impeccable acting skills.

It mainly depends on the appearance and the suitability for the role.

And the human relationships behind it.

Qin Chuan was highly recommended by Cai Yinong and Li Guoli, both of whom are well-known big capitalists and big directors in the circle, so Zhang Jizhong had to take him seriously.

"Director Zhang, money doesn't matter, as long as I don't have to pay for it." Qin Chuan made a joke, and then said seriously: "The first play in my life was performed in your crew. I am very happy to have a second chance and I will cherish it."

"Even if I don't win the male lead this time, please give me another role so that I can fulfill my dream."

What is sincerity? This is sincerity.

I came here just for your play, and I recognize you as a person. Even if you can't play the leading role, I'm willing to play the supporting role.

Yu Ming was amazed when he heard this. No wonder Qin Chuan could achieve what he has today in just two years.

Shandong blood has great advantages.

"Hahaha, we definitely won't ask you to pay for it. Thank you for your kindness. I promise you, even if you can't be chosen as the male lead, I will definitely give you another role."

"Thank you Director Zhang, Director Yu, and Director Zhao,"

"You're welcome. Once the audition process is completed in the next few days, we will inform you of the results as soon as possible."

"Thank you."

After the audition, Qin Chuan turned around and smiled.

If he can't play the leading male role, he will definitely not take this drama, and then he will say that he is busy and can't arrange his schedule.

After removing her makeup, Qin Chuan came out and saw Nie Yuan who had been waiting for her for a long time.

"Qin Chuan, how was the audition?"

"It's difficult. I'm not sure. I have too little experience. I'm just here to make up the numbers. I think Brother Xiao Ming can do it. Several directors are full of praise for him."

"Really?" Nie Yuan's face was uncertain.

"That must be true."

……

After the audition, Qin Chuan waited for news at home.

It took more than half a month to wait.

During this period, the crew of The Return of the Condor Heroes was very lively. First, Huang Xiaoming complained that the casting was too complicated, and then Nie Yuan said that there was no inside story and it was very clean.

The situation with the female lead was not smooth either. The crew held an online voting when selecting the female lead, but the artist selected was eliminated after just one round.

The most popular candidate is Jiang Qingqing, who is known as the number one ancient costume beauty in mainland China. Her fans even photoshopped her photos and dressed her up as Little Dragon Girl.

A few days later, Jiang Qingqing announced her withdrawal from the competition for the leading actress.

The crew then released a makeup trial photo of Liu Yifei.

Another heated round of discussion began.

A few days later, Huang Xiaoming announced his withdrawal from the competition for the leading male role of Yang Guo, citing the same excuse: the game was too complicated.

It is said that during the audition days, the producers praised him every day and said that he was the best candidate.

Now it’s difficult to tell him.

In the production company's office, Zhang Jizhong was in a state of panic after receiving a phone call. Huayi was pressuring him not to use Nie Yuan.

Something like this person has poor integrity, doesn't follow the rules, changes jobs, is ungrateful, etc.

In the evening, after dinner, Qin Chuan went out for a walk to make room for Huang Bo and his wife.

While walking on the street, Liu Yifei called him.

"You also participated in Yang Guo's election, why didn't I hear you say that?"

Qin Chuan sat down on a chair by the roadside: "I'm just trying it casually, I don't have any hope."

When Liu Yifei heard the sound of a lighter coming from the other end of the phone, the image of Qin Chuan smoking already appeared in his mind.

"You hope to be the boss. Now that Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan are fighting, you are the popular candidate."

"Oh, it depends on fate."

Liu Yifei was annoyed: "Why don't you ask about my recent situation?"

Qin Chuan found it funny. He certainly knew Liu Yifei's situation: "Do you still need to ask? She's already been chosen as the heroine."

Liu Yifei is not working alone, he has abundant resources behind him, otherwise how could he have starred in so many dramas one after another.

"You already know all this, so you should work harder. If you are selected, we will be the second team this time."

Qin Chuan was helpless: "It's useless for me to try harder. It all depends on the director's choice."

"Who said it's useless? You said it's useless after you've tried your best. I don't care. You must be selected..."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yifei thought for a while, mustered up the courage to call Zhang Jizhong: "Director Zhang, I'm sorry to bother you, I want to recommend someone to you..."

One casting call caused half of the entertainment industry to be in chaos.

Zhang Jizhong holds meetings every day, and his subordinates support different groups.

However, after Huang Xiaoming withdrew and Nie Yuan declined, Qin Chuan's voice became louder and louder, and Zhao Jian spoke well of him every day.

Li Guoli would ask the sugar man every now and then whether Qin Chuan was selected.

Zhang Jizhong was overwhelmed.

With Liu Yifei's strong recommendation, Zhang Da Huzi finally made the decision and gave the male lead role to Qin Chuan.
That night, Nie Yuan smoked half a pack of cigarettes.

My heart went cold.

He paid so much for this role, including cutting bones, changing jobs, and offending his old employer.

In the end, I got nothing.

He thought it must be Huang Xiaoming who pointed the finger at him from behind.

He deliberately let Huayi throw dirty water on him.

……

After getting the script of Yang Guo in The Return of the Condor Heroes, Qin Chuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, after rubbing his lips at the part about signing the contract, I can only say that he is worthy of being called a big bearded man, and is notoriously stingy.

If we say we won't let him lose money, then we didn't let him lose money, but we don't let him make any profit either.

Four hundred thousand.

Excluding the company's commission, the total amount was 160,000.

Qin Chuan smoked a cigarette and suppressed the urge to change jobs.

Nie Yuan’s previous experience is still a lesson for us. If you don’t have enough ability, just change jobs. If you offend your old employer, they will take care of you.

In November, The Legend of Sword and Fairy was released.

One drama with two stars, the ratings exceeded 5, second only to "Bright Sword" and "The Emperor Wu of Han" in the same period.

Qin Chuan takes off!

Liu Yifei is extremely popular!
Wanwan's Liu Pinyan, Peng Yuyan, An Yixuan and others have also made a name for themselves in the mainland market.

Qin Chuan sang two interludes in a row, and Xiaoyao sighed that the rain in June had further increased his fame in the music world.

After only half a month of broadcasting, The Legend of Sword and Fairy became a phenomenal fairy tale drama.

Tangren’s transformation was successful and he made huge profits.

"Fuck, this drama is amazing, the special effects are gorgeous, the plot is online, I recommend everyone to watch it."

"I recommend it too. Qin Chuan is so handsome and Liu Yifei is so pretty. They are all handsome men and beautiful women."

"I saw old friends in there, Teacher Xu and Teacher Li. Long time no see."

"I see, Drunken Swordsman was killed by Anu, Sword Saint and Qing'er broke up, Xiaoyao and Ling'er were separated forever, Jin Yuan died, Tang Yu Xiaobao's arm was broken, this screenwriter, come out and die."

"To be honest, the Drunken Swordsman is really handsome. I like him."

"The cheerful Xiaoyao turned into a silent one. This was not what I wanted to see. Especially the sight of Hao Hao holding her daughter as she left, it made me cry a lot."

"Brother Qin Chuan is finally famous."

The number of Qin Chuan’s blog fans continued to rise, from 2.5 million to 3 million, 4 million, 4.5 million, and 5 million.

Five million is not his limit, it is the limit of the blog. The traffic of this platform has reached this limit, and it will be very slow to increase further.

After investing so much, Tangren finally started to make money.

When Qin Chuan gets advertising and endorsements, he only chooses the expensive ones.

Seventeen advertisements, five endorsements.

The most expensive one is a certain clothing brand, with an endorsement fee of 1.2 million per year.

Thanks to the popularity of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", Qin Chuan earned about 4 million yuan in total.

Looking at the balance in the card, he called Cai Yinong and said with a smile: "Thank you to the company, thank you to Mr. Cai, I will never leave."

The filming of The Return of the Condor Heroes will start in late December.

A few days before December, Star Avenue called Qin Chuan and informed him to participate in the finals.

Qin Chuan only remembered this after receiving the call. He almost forgot about it.

After asking around, I found out that, including him, there are now a total of four monthly champions, one of which was won in the resurrection match.

The rules are the same as the monthly championship competition, four to two, two to one.

The difference is that this time there will be a champion, runner-up and third place.

Three days later, Qin Chuan came to the CCTV venue to draw lots and met several other monthly champions.

"Hey, isn't this my President Zeng and Sister Hua?"

Qin Chuan saw Zeng Yi at first sight, still with his signature bald head, big chain, and gangster outfit.

Linghua should be prettier and look dignified and elegant.

"Hello, long time no see." Zeng Yi smiled reluctantly.

The fact that Qin Chuan recognized him only now, what does this mean? It means that this kid hasn’t been paying attention to Star Avenue for some time.

Why not pay attention? Because there is no need. Is it a sure win?

After the two sides reminisced about the past, Qin Chuan turned his attention to the other two contestants, the shepherd brother and A Bao.

He was eliminated from the same group as him before, but after a fierce battle, he won first place among many eliminated contestants and stood in front of Qin Chuan again.

The remaining one was a gentle and handsome man.

Li Yugang.

He is famous for his cross-dressing singing, which is a bit similar to Qinchuan's Wujiapo.

Qin Chuan greeted the two people. After the greetings, the host asked them to go on stage to draw lots.

Those who draw the same number are your opponents.

"Qin Chuan, please show your number, number two. Qin Chuan is number two. Who else has drawn number two?"

Li Yugang's eyes turned black and he felt like the sky was falling. He raised the number in his hand tremblingly.

He is number two.

Zeng Yi, Sister Hua, and A Bao all breathed a sigh of relief. The last thing they wanted was to meet Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan and Li Yugang are in a group, and there is no doubt that the remaining Phoenix Legend and Abao are in the same group.

After the draw, the competition will start soon.

The next afternoon, Qin Chuan took Wang Tingting into Yangma's dressing room.

"Boss, are you sure this time?"

"Shou Yira!"
