Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 15 Young Justice Bao

On May 5, the Chen Linfeng brothers went to the filming base in BJ City, SX Province together.

This is where part of the filming location for the sequel to Journey to the West was filmed, and it was also where the crew auditioned.

Because the investment and controlling companies have changed, in addition to the protagonists, the actors in this drama will obviously be different from the previous life.

At this time, the filming of the sequel to Journey to the West had just been completed, and some actors who played the same roles were directly pulled over to continue starring in the film.

Only important supporting characters such as Zhu Bajie, Tang Monk, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Nezha, etc. may be replaced by new actors due to changes in their personalities.

In addition, new characters such as Qiao Ling'er, Bai Lianhua, and Biyou Fairy need to audition.

The official audition time was May 5st. Chen Linfeng arrived two days in advance. He first visited Qian Yanqiu.

Screenwriter Qian lives in a hotel room prepared by the crew. He has been living here for two months.

Chen Linfeng knocked on the door, but a stranger opened it.

The man looked me up and down and said with a smile, "You must be Xiao Chen, come in quickly, screenwriter Qian is inside."

After saying that, he guided Chen Linfeng inside.

He followed him into the room. In addition to Qian Yanqiu, there was also a middle-aged man in the room.

The room was filled with smoke and the ashtray on the table was almost full. It was obvious that they had been talking for a long time.

When Qian Yanqiu saw Chen Linfeng coming, he first opened the window to disperse the smoke.

Then he introduced, "This is Director Yu, the director of this sequel to Journey to the West."

He pointed to the person who opened the door just now and said, "This is screenwriter Li Yuehong. We are working together to write this play."

Li Yuehong waved his hand and said, "This book was mainly written by you. I just added some minor details."

Director Yu interrupted the two men's modesty and said, "Okay, you two are both heroes. Old Qian, who is this child?"

"This is Chen Linfeng, who won first prize in the New Concept Essay Contest a while ago."

Qian Yanqiu pulled Chen Linfeng to her side. "He is an actor himself. He started learning how to write scripts from me last year. He contributed a lot to this script."

Director Yu listened quietly and lit another cigarette.

"This time, considering that he might be more suitable for the image of Nezha in our drama, I asked his father to bring him here for the audition.

Oh, his father is Chen Shantong, you know who he is."

Director Yu understood what Qian Yanqiu meant by introducing him, nodded, and said to Chen Linfeng, "You are a promising young man. I am looking forward to seeing your performance the day after tomorrow."

Chen Linfeng said thank you to the director, but it was not convenient for him to say more at this time.

I didn't expect to run into the director, and it was like I was getting in through the back door.

The director and the two screenwriters have basically finished discussing the script today, and the rest is just idle chat.

Seeing Chen Linfeng coming, the two of them simply stood up and said goodbye.

After sending the two out, Qian Yanqiu turned to Chen Linfeng and said, "According to what I understand, the director currently has no suitable candidate for the role of Nezha. If you work harder, you will have a great chance."

"I have made some preparations at home. Uncle Qian, please help me with some advice." Chen Linfeng told Qian Yanqiu about his preparations for Nezha.

After listening to it, he was very satisfied and praised, "Not bad, you have a talent for writing. It seems that being an actor is not a piece of cake."

Chen Linfeng gave a typical smile of a good student.

Qian Yanqiu was very confident in this child with whom he had some kind of fate, and asked him to come over mainly because he wanted the director to recognize his face in advance.

The son of a small investor and assistant director, who is recognized by the screenwriter, will always have more opportunities than others.

Seeing that Chen Linfeng was well prepared, he said no more and ordered him to leave.

Chen Linfeng took out a stack of papers from his bag and said, "Uncle Qian, this is the script of Li Shimin that I revised twice. Please help me take a look when you are free. I will continue to revise it if you have any questions." "You, you are relying on me. Okay, you keep the script for me. I have been with the crew for such a long time. I will show you the script when I have time."

Qian Yanqiu took the script and waved his hand, saying, "I don't have anything else to tell you. You can go back first."

Returning to the booked room, Chen Linfeng saw Shi Xiaolong standing on the bed and performing routines, and wondered,
"Brother Long, what are you practicing?"

Shi Xiaolong lay down on the bed, looking a little depressed.

"I was a little nervous when I suddenly auditioned. Apart from my hand and foot skills, I couldn't think of any advantages I had."

Chen Linfeng sat cross-legged on his bed and said slowly, "Why are you so nervous? It's just a TV series. With your fame, there will be many opportunities like this in the future."

He said jokingly, "For Mr. Shi Xiaolong, a famous martial arts child star in our country, this little pressure is not worth mentioning."

Shi Xiaolong walked along the bed to Chen Linfeng's back, put his arms around his neck and choked him.

"You are the one who puts the most pressure on me, and you are still making sarcastic remarks. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you don't know who your brother is!"

Chen Linfeng was very familiar with this move, and he broke it with a backhand tickle. He leaped forward and jumped onto Shi Xiaolong's bed, and the two of them were in a standoff.

Such duels between masters have been staged many times in the past, and the current odds are evenly split.

While the two brothers were fighting, Chen Shantong pushed the door open and saw them fighting. He couldn't help but shake his head. These two people who were usually very honest started to make trouble when they got together.

"Stop it, Xiaolong. Do you want to hear some good news?"

Shi Xiaolong didn't dare to look back to avoid being attacked. He faced Chen Linfeng and asked while backing away, "What's the good news?"

Father Chen stood directly in the middle of the bed, stopping the two from continuing to play around. "A company in Guangzhou wants to film Young Justice Bao. They contacted me to inquire about the schedule and specifically asked you, Xiaolong, to play the role."

When Shi Xiaolong heard the news, he didn't care about winning or losing, and asked happily, "They want me to play Justice Bao?"

Chen Linfeng couldn't help but complain, "How do you look like Bao Qingtian? You're more like Zhan Zhao."

This is a childhood classic. Shi Xiaolong played many good roles when he was young.

The Young Justice Bao was first broadcast in 2000, and when it was rebroadcast in 2005, it was still ranked in the top 3 in the regional ratings.

When the internet lists the most popular childhood dramas 20 years later, this drama will definitely be on the list.

It is much better than the sequel to Journey to the West. Of course, the sequel to Journey to the West has changed a lot now, so it is hard to say which one is better.

"Xiao Feng is right. You are the one who was asked to play Zhan Zhao. I asked someone about it and heard that this role is also an important one in the play."

"I know, I know, the Seven Heroes and Five Gallants, the storytelling mentioned this. I know there is a person named Zhan Zhao, his martial arts are very powerful, just suitable for me."

Shi Xiaolong was very happy. It didn't matter whether he was the protagonist or the supporting role, as long as he could have a role.

Father Chen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but swallowed his words.

The two brothers are competing for the same role this time, and he has always been worried that they would have conflicts because of this. Now that each of them has a role, it couldn't be better.

He originally wanted to let Xiaolong give up the audition for Nezha and go directly to Guangzhou, but then he changed his mind and thought that this would be unfair and the fair competition they had agreed on in the first place could not be broken.

So I could only suppress the thoughts in my mind.

Shi Xiaolong thought of this, "Hey, in this case, do I not have to participate in the audition?"

"You should still attend as usual. Since you are already here, if you don't want to attend, just leave early. It won't be good if reporters expose it and publish it in the newspapers."

Similar plots often appear on the Internet in later generations, where someone is short-sighted and does not like a certain drama, and then the drama becomes a hit, and he is badly slapped in the face and regrets it.

Chen Linfeng doesn't want Shi Xiaolong to become a classic clown who slaps the face of cool novels.

"Xiao Feng is right. Let's just attend as usual and do it one by one."
