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

Chapter 16 Audition (Part )

The next morning, Chen Linfeng got up as usual to do morning exercises.

He came to an open space a few hundred meters away from the hotel, a place he found while strolling around the area yesterday evening.

It was late spring, and not far away there were a few locust trees with fragrant flowers. The white flowers were dotted all over the branches, and the yellow stamens were dotted, like snow and white jade.

Chen Linfeng was immersed in the fragrance of flowers. He played more and more smoothly, almost in a state of ecstasy.

He slowly closed his fist and found a person standing behind him with his arms crossed, obviously having been watching for a while.

Chen Linfeng looked closely and saw that it was a girl who was about his age.
The girl clapped her hands and praised, "Your punch is really good."

Then he remembered to introduce himself and said hurriedly, "My name is Shu Chang. Are you the actor who played the Happy Little Monk?"

Chen Linfeng looked up and down and found that it was her.

She wore a red and white long-sleeved T-shirt on the upper body and an orange long skirt on the lower body. Her hair was braided into several pigtails on both sides, which made her look a little cute.

You can already see some shadows of later generations.

"I'm Chen Linfeng, you can just call me Xiaofeng. Are you here for Nezha's interview as well?"

Shu Chang nodded, "I'm just here to try, just to make up the numbers. Your martial arts are so good, I can't compare to you."

Anyone who believes this is a fool. Shu Chang has a rough life and superb acting skills. It is easy for him to play the role of Nezha, who has a young body but a mature mind.

In the later Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, her portrayal of the Child-Fairy of Tianshan was so vivid that it could not be considered a mere addition.

But I’m not bad either. A middle-aged man who has been reborn can play such a role in his true colors.

"I've seen your performance in Single Parents Home. You acted so well. Don't be so modest."

Shu Chang smiled sheepishly, thinking, "This guy is quite good at talking."

Shu Chang is a cheerful person, or perhaps because of her experience of living under someone else's roof, she developed an outwardly cheerful and people-pleasing personality.

When she met someone of the same age in the acting circle, she could no longer hold back and kept chatting with Chen Linfeng.

This time she came to Shaanxi for the audition because of her uncle. They booked the same hotel as Chen Linfeng. Shu Chang just came out of the hotel to buy breakfast. When she came back, she saw some boxing and stopped to watch for a while.

Chen Linfeng saw that it was almost time for morning exercise, so he went back to the hotel with Shu Chang.

In the morning, the crew had auditions for the main villain Wu Tian and some minor villains such as Black Robe and Scorpion Spirit.

The Chen Linfeng brothers and Shu Chang went to watch the fun together. The three young men quickly became familiar with each other and left each other their addresses and contact numbers for writing letters.

The day passed quickly, and at nine o'clock in the morning on May 5, the two brothers arrived at the audition location half an hour early.

When Chen Linfeng arrived at the audition location, some people were already queuing up. The roles to be auditioned today included Nezha, Guanyin and other roles, with Nezha's audition being at the front.

Shu Chang saw the two brothers coming and waved his hand, and Chen Linfeng and the other man came over.

"How is it going? Has it started?" Shi Xiaolong asked. The atmosphere was a little tense and his voice was shaking.

"The crew will start issuing numbers soon. The order has been decided in advance. Don't worry." Shu Chang replied, looking at Shi Xiaolong in surprise, "You are a big star, why are you so nervous?"

"Who's nervous? I'm just worried about you two," Shi Xiaolong blushed.

"Tsk, I don't know who had a trembling voice just now." Shu Chang laughed.

"How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air? If you can't speak, you don't have to say anything."

Chen Linfeng smiled. After this commotion, Brother Long's nervousness disappeared.

It's rare that Shu Chang has such thoughts at such a young age.

The three of them sat down on a bench in the corridor outside the room.

Shu Chang saw the backpack next to Chen Linfeng and asked, "Why did you bring a bag out of the hotel? What's in it?"

Chen Linfeng patted his backpack and said, "This is my secret weapon."

Shu Chang took a curious look, but did not ask any more questions. Instead, he threw the question to Shi Xiaolong.
"Your brother has prepared a secret weapon, why don't you have one?"

Shi Xiaolong covered his mouth with his hand and whispered into Shu Chang's ear, "This is actually the Nezha costume designed by Xiaofeng himself. Unfortunately, it only suits him. I tried it on and the style doesn't match at all." Chen Linfeng didn't mean to keep it secret, and explained, "I'm not like you two. One is famous and the other has acting skills. I can only use other means."

Shi Xiaolong spread his hands and said, "Look, he is a person who only talks modestly, but actually wants to do everything to the best of his ability.

This is the most annoying thing about a top student like him. We are not in the same camp as him, so we can just watch him show off quietly."

Shu Chang covered his mouth and laughed, "But I am also a top student. Xiao Feng and I are in the same group."

Shi Xiaolong was indignant, "Is it great to be good at studying?"

There is something interesting in this sentence!
Chen Linfeng decisively replied, "Sorry, being good at studying means you can do whatever you want."

Shu Chang laughed out loud.

There were more and more people waiting for auditions in the corridor, about twenty or thirty. Chen Linfeng looked around and did not see any familiar faces from his previous life.

At this time, the crew members came out of the room and handed out number plates.

Shu Chang is No. 3, Shi Xiaolong is No. 11, and Chen Linfeng is No. 19.

The staff started calling numbers.

Number 1 in the crowd stood up and walked towards the staff outside the room.

The staff member was holding a stack of resumes in his hand. He first confirmed the identity of the person based on the photo on the resume, and then took No. 1 into the room.

The people waiting outside the corridor all fell silent.

气氛逐渐凝重。

About 5 minutes later, No. 1 walked out of the room.

The staff also came out and started calling for No. 2 to enter.

Chen Linfeng observed and saw that No. 1's face turned pale and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly. It was obvious that the result was not good.

About 5 minutes later, No. 2 came out with an equally grim look on his face.

The people waiting outside began to talk.

It was Shu Chang's turn No. 3. She didn't have time to say anything and followed the staff into the room.

This time it took significantly longer.

About 15 to 20 minutes later, Shu Chang walked out of the room with a calm face, and no one could tell what was going on.

Shi Xiaolong stood up and asked, "How is it? What's going on inside?"

"The director was very gentle, but the teacher who conducted the questioning had a very stern tone and asked very tricky questions."

Shu Chang paused and lowered his voice, "The audition process is a talent display, performance and questioning session. You can first think about your personal strengths and understanding of the role. I was asked this question just now."

Chen Linfeng asked, "How did you perform?"

Shu Chang said uncertainly, "No one interrupted me during the performance, so it should be OK."

Chen Linfeng nodded affirmatively, "That should be the case. The first three of you came out at different times."

Chen Linfeng relieved Shi Xiaolong, who was beginning to get nervous again, and said, "The director and the host are obviously following the crew's routine. One plays the bad guy and the other plays the bad guy. Don't worry about him."

Shu Chang tilted his head and thought about it. It was true. He exclaimed, "Xiao Feng, you are really good."

He patted Shi Xiaolong on the shoulder again and said, "Come on, I'll go first."

The two brothers waved goodbye.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was Shi Xiaolong's turn.

Then it was the turn of six or seven more people, and then the staff member shouted, "Number 19".

Chen Linfeng responded, confirmed that everything was correct, and then walked into the room.
