I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 68 What do the Mou girls have in common?

"Fuck, you're only 17 years old?"

Chen Jin took the information given by Zhu Yanmanzi, glanced at it, and raised his head with suspicion.

underage?
"Strictly speaking, he should be 18, but he's actually 17!"

Zhu Yanmanzi has a youthfulness that is inconsistent with her age, and her speech and demeanor are very direct.

July 93.

As of November this year, I will be exactly 11 years old.

More than one year younger than Chen Jin.

"That's awesome! He got into the Central Academy of Drama at the age of 18!"

Chen Jin looked at her other messages again, but Zhu Yanmanzi whispered, "You may not even pass the three tests, and there's still the college entrance examination..."

"If you can't pass the third try, I'll give you my head, okay?"

Zhu Yanmanzi's re-examination and third examination were in the same examination room as Chen Jin, so Chen Jin knew exactly what her condition was.

Although I can't compare with myself, I am definitely in the top ten.

Besides, Chen Jin had checked in the system and found that the other party was a graduate student recommended by the Central Academy of Drama, and the future Chen Jin would pay special attention to her.

"Good at dancing, painting, singing..."

"You graduated from the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy?"

Chen Jin raised his head and took a close look at Zhu Yanmanzi's figure. His temperament and figure were indeed impeccable, but his physique was only slightly better than Zhou Dongyu's.

The difference between being able to squeeze in and not being able to squeeze out.

"Correct!"

Zhu Yanmanzi glanced at Chen Jin: "What's wrong?"

“The chances of passing the audition have greatly increased!”

"How did you come to this conclusion?"

Zhu Yanmanzi muttered softly.

Although she knew that her alma mater was known as the cradle of stars and had produced many famous actors.

Like Li Dabai, Datiantian, Wang Likun, Shishi... there are too many actresses whose fame rate is second only to those of several major art schools.

Even several generations of Mou girls were students of this school.

Like the international chapter and the future Cunzi.

Chen Jin has actually analyzed the person named Zhang Yimou.

Her leading female characters all have a distinctive feature, which is that, just like what art exam teachers like, they all come from a dance background.

Without exception.

Including the earliest Gong Li, not to mention the international Zhang, Li Man in "Curse of the Golden Flower", Zhang Huiwen in the future "Coming Home", and so on.

Looking at the acting departments of the Central Academy of Drama, the PLA Art Institute and the Beijing Film Academy, the admission rate of the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy is the highest. Just like many direct admission affiliated schools, entering the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy is basically equivalent to having one foot in the domestic entertainment industry.

Every year, the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy, one of the major art schools, admits many students, and in one session, the number of students admitted is even more than a dozen.

The reason is very simple. This school is obviously more professional than the art examination classes, and it lays the foundation from an early age.

Art school examiners and scorers pay the most attention to body shape.

Among the four aspects of voice, stage, behavior and performance, voice is innate, lines and performance can be improved later; but the physical form is something that many people have acquired since childhood.

Girls start dancing at a young age, boys practice martial arts and learn dancing. If Chen Jin doesn’t have a systematic improvement, he will be directly eliminated in terms of his body shape.

"Because I have studied all the previous actresses!"

Chen Jin whispered in Zhu Yanmanzi's ear.

In fact, Zhou Dongyu was spotted by the casting director when he was on his way to applying for the dance major at the Southern Arts Institute.

However, what she practiced since childhood was not dance, but gymnastics, which is more difficult than dance, and many of them are just beginners. Although dance can cause some basic damage since childhood, it is not as great as gymnastics.

"Then we have more students from the Beijing Dance Academy Affiliated High School and the Beijing Dance Academy!"

"I shouldn't be the only one auditioning for this role, right?"

Zhu Yanmanzi said calmly, and Chen Jin nodded: "Of course, I just said that your chances are greatly increased, I didn't say that you will definitely be selected!"

Zhu Yanmanzi: "..."

The key point is that Chen Jin added another shot: "Tomorrow, the audition director will have to go to Beijing Dance Academy to take another look!"

"Should I suggest that she go to the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy to make another choice?"

"Please be a human being!"

Dilraba Dilmurat, who was standing next to her, also heard it and couldn't stand it anymore.

She also studied dance and was passed without even auditioning: "Half of the actresses who auditioned have studied dance!"

Whether you have learned it or not, you can tell it by just looking at the shape.

However, the reputation of Beijing Dance Academy is quite strong, otherwise Zhang Yimou would not have told Fu Lulu alone that he wanted to visit the Academy.

"That's right, dancing is not an advantage!"

The probabilities of 1% and 99% sound different, but unless you try them in the end, the results are actually the same.

Zhu Yanmanzi is a rational person, so he just takes this as an opportunity. "Oh, by the way, you've auditioned before, right? Can you share your experience with Manzi?"

Dilraba suddenly remembered.

Chen Jin immediately laughed and said, "Am I not already sharing this with her?"

Then he talked about some details of taking photos later, such as smiling and staying natural.

"By the way... have you met director Zhang Yimou?"

Zhu Yanmanzi originally wanted to ask this, but Dilraba Dilmurat asked it out loud.

Chen Jin didn't want to reveal too much, so he said vaguely, "Guess?"

"Guess what, you've definitely never seen it before!"

Dilraba Dilmurat doesn’t understand these boys. If she had seen them, she would have shown off to the girls a long time ago. However, Zhu Yanmanzi next to her had a different idea from her.

She always felt that Chen Jin was too enthusiastic.

Not to her, but to Fu Lulu.

If he didn't get the audition, even if Chen Jin was attentive, there would be no need for a casting director to chat and laugh with him, right?
She thought it was weird anyway.

"My advice is, whether you can be called for an audition or not, go back and read the original novel of Under the Hawthorn Tree!"

"If we are really called upon, we will be prepared!"

Chen Jin only gave Zhu Yanmanzi this one piece of advice because the cell phone in his pocket rang.

An unfamiliar imperial capital number.

"Agency? Xingmei's?"

Chen Jin placed some resumes of the art students in line on the table, walked to the side and swiped to answer the call.

"Hello, is this Chen Jin?"

A very capable female voice came from the other end of the phone, and Chen Jin nodded: "Yes, it's me, who are you?"

Chen Jin suddenly thought of another possibility—Teng Huatao.

Bao Jingjing said that the other party would contact her.

Sure enough, the other party revealed his identity: "Hello, I am the assistant of Director Teng Huatao, my last name is Zhao!"

"Did Ms. Bao Jingjing, the original author of Love Is Not Blind, tell you that Director Teng wants to make her novel into a film or TV series?"

"Yes, I said it!"

"Hello Hello!"

Chen Jin replied very politely.

"But now the film and television rights of this novel are in your hands. I wonder what you want to do with it?"

"Director Teng's intention is that both parties give a suitable price. You asked Ms. Bao Jingjing to buy it for 50, and we can add a little more!"

"How much?"

Chen Jin grinned, of course he was just joking.

But the other party didn't hear it: "20, do you think it's okay?"

20 million!
If Chen Jin didn't know the future box office of "Love Is Not Blind", it would be fine with this price.

He might even be moved.

After all, I made so much money by going back and forth.

But now, Chen Jin obviously won't let go.

"What an unfortunate timing!"

The best ending that Chen Jin had originally anticipated was that his role as the male lead of "Under the Hawthorn Tree" would be revealed, so that he could have a good talk with Teng Huatao.

But now his identity has to be kept secret, so it is obviously impossible to talk to Teng Huatao.

Chen Jin doesn't think that he has nothing now. He can just tell Teng Huatao that he wants to invest together and play the male lead in the drama, and the other party will agree.

The other party is not a fool, why should he use you?
What are you worth?
Anyone would choose a well-known actor as the leading male role.

So this is very embarrassing and unsolvable.

"I'm sorry, it's not about money!"

Chen Jin didn't waste any words and said, "Assistant Zhao, let me tell you this, I bought the copyright of this novel because I am very interested in the role of Wang Xiaojian, the male lead in the novel!"

"I also wanted to find a director to film this drama together!"

Chen Jin had said so much, and he believed that Teng Huatao's assistant should understand.

Indeed, Zhao Zhao understood the meaning of Chen Jin's words.

"So you don't want to sell the copyright?"

"Yes, this is not a question of money. I think this novel is very good and there is a market for it if it is adapted into a movie or a TV series!"

“I’m an actor and I want to make this show!”

"That's all!"
