Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 14: Beijing Film Academy Class of 05, in the same class as Yang Mi
Hey~
[The host has contacted actor Feng Enhe and received a chance to participate in a lucky draw. Do you want to participate now?]

[The host has contacted Director Wu Gang and received a chance to participate in a lucky draw. Would you like to participate now?]

Qi Hui's eyebrows moved slightly, he thought about it, and then drew the lottery.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill: Fishing Mastery]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill: Professional Dubbing]

Qi Hui: “…”

What kind of skills are these? How come there are fisherman skills?
After glancing at the system panel, Qi Hui drew his attention back.

Facing the doubts of several people, Qi Hui shrugged and said, "It's a Soviet joke."

"Oh?" Feng Enhe, Wu Gang, and director Jiang Wei became interested.

When they were in school, the Soviet Union still existed.

Not only that, the pressure it brings is also very great.

Ling Xiaosu and Zhang Ruoyun looked at each other, somewhat puzzled.

The Internet was not well developed at that time, and they did not pay much attention to these things, so they had no clear concept of Soviet jokes.

Seeing this, Qi Hui smiled and said, "It is said that one day, Emperor Xunzong was going to visit Poland, so the Polish officials asked a painter to paint a picture to praise him and publicize it."

"The painter is disgusted by this kind of flattery, but he has to paint it."

"Not long after, officials came to inspect the painting, but they found that it was a man and a woman making love in bed, and outside the window was the palace of Krystal."

"The official was furious and asked who this woman was."

"Painter: Xunzong's woman; Official: What about the man?"

"Painter: Xunzong's secretary; Official: Where is Xunzong?"

"Painter: Comrade Xunzong is in Poland."

After saying that, Qi Hui pointed to the set and said, "Comrade Ma Kui is also in Poland."

Everyone looked at the secretary and his wife on the set, and then thought of the deceased Ma Kui, and their faces turned strange.

Don't say it, really don't say it...

"Hahahahahahaha." Director Jiang Wei and Feng Enhe slapped their thighs with joy and burst into laughter.

Wu Gang also laughed non-stop: "Luckily, Lao Fan finished filming, otherwise it would have been fun."

Fan Yulin, the actor who plays Ma Kui, is not very famous, but he is a very good actor.

He was once Zhao Buffett Wei’s first love boyfriend, and later... later the two of them went to court.

On the set, the three women who heard the laughter stopped in confusion, wondering why they were still laughing.

Are we performing a comedy?

"Ku... ahem, let's take a break first." Director Jiang Wei found that he was so busy having fun that he neglected the scene he was filming.

Seeing this, Yao Chen walked over to Ling Xiaosu and glanced at Qi Hui and Zhang Ruoyun.

"Let me introduce you." Ling Xiaosu put his arm around Yao Chen's waist. "My wife, Yao Chen, is also your 99th-level senior sister."

"Hello, senior sister." Qi Hui and Zhang Ruoyun greeted together.

"Junior Brother Qi Hui from Class 05, and Junior Brother Zhang Ruoyun from Class 07, I've told you about this." Ling Xiaosu smiled and introduced them.

Yao Chen looked at the two of them and nodded: "Hello."

"I won't play the role of Xie Ruolin anymore. Let Qi Hui do it." Ling Xiaosu said.

Yao Chen nodded. That role indeed had too few scenes, only 30, and it could be filmed in about half a month.

And who knows how much scenes will be cut out during post-production editing.

But director Jiang Wei, who was not far away, widened his eyes and asked, "What? You really don't want to act anymore?"

Ling Xiaosu pointed at Qi Hui and said, "I am helping you find someone. I recommend Qi Hui."

Hearing this, Director Jiang Wei was a little disappointed. He glanced at Qi Hui, then at Zhang Ruoyun, and then said in surprise:
"Huh? Isn't this Little Zhang from Old Zhang's family?"

He is also a senior director and of course knows Zhang Jian.

He directed the movie "Don't Talk to Strangers" which scared many people.

Feng Yuanzheng once became the spokesperson for domestic violence.
"Haha..." Zhang Ruoyun smiled awkwardly: "Hello, Uncle Jiang."

Jiang Wei nodded. "Your father just called me and said he wanted to recommend an actor to me. I think his last name is Qi, but he disappeared before he could explain it clearly... Huh?"

As he was talking, he looked at Qi Hui in surprise: "Could it be you?"

"Director Jiang, this is the person I recommended." Ling Xiaosu said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

Jiang Wei laughed: "Yes, it was you who recommended it." Anyway, Lao Zhang stopped talking after that, so it didn't count.

After a brief interlude, director Jiang Wei turned his attention to Qi Hui.

The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics generally develops its influence among students, and Xie Ruolin, an officer of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, is a young, handsome, fashionable, wealthy, and very mercenary man.

Judging from his appearance alone, Qi Hui is very suitable for the role of Xie Ruolin.

I just don't know if it's slick and materialistic enough.

Jiang Wei was ready to see Qi Hui's acting skills.

But at this moment, Assistant Director Li, whom I had met before, came over and said, "Director, the scene where Li Ya interrogates Sheng Xiang is ready."

"Okay, go ahead and shoot it." Jiang Wei said, and then called the executive director to continue filming the scene where the woman caught her husband cheating.

"Come on, Qi Hui, go audition." Jiang Wei said, "I want to see your acting skills."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards a room, and the casting director who was not far away followed him in.

"Old Ling, and Xiao Zhang, how about coming together?"

Hearing this, Ling Xiaosu and Zhang Ruoyun followed.

……

In the room, director Jiang Wei and his casting director sat in the main seats, while Ling Xiaosu and Zhang Ruoyun sat against the wall.

Qi Hui was in the middle of the room, receiving everyone's gaze.

Jiang Wei looked at Qi Hui: "Beijing Film Academy Class of 05, the same class as Yang Mi, right?"

Qi Hui felt a little helpless and nodded slowly.

"Let's get started." The director flipped through the script in his hand, took out two sheets of paper, and handed one to Qi Hui: "Try this scene in ten minutes."

"Old Ling, how about you join in the play?" The director handed another piece of paper to Ling Xiaosu.

Since it was recommended by Ling Xiaosu, the self-introduction part was omitted.

"Okay." Ling Xiaosu smiled, rubbed his hands, and was eager to try.

He didn’t perform well in his last audition, mainly because of his Korean language problem. This time he wanted to see if Qi Hui could take over his role.

Zhang Ruoyun in the corner touched his nose. He had nothing to do again.

But it’s not a big problem, he just came out to have fun.

……

The room was quiet. Qi Hui and Ling Xiaosu were both memorizing their lines seriously.

Ten minutes flew by.

Soon, the director yelled, "Let's start."

Ling Xiaosu moved a chair and sat next to Qi Hui. The scene he was going to rehearse was the one where Yu Zecheng came to Xie Ruolin's house to eat dumplings, the two of them talked about business, and Xie Ruolin sought cooperation.

Ling Xiaosu took a deep breath, and then said in a slightly shocked tone: "According to you, this telegram is also valuable?"

"Of course~" Qi Hui said with a long tone, half proud and half boasting: "Brother, this is a civil war, how can the information not be valuable?"

Not far away, Director Jiang Wei and the casting director looked at each other, both a little surprised.

This sound... is very good!

The bass is deep, the midrange is powerful, clear and penetrating, and it is unforgettable.

Voice is the second face of human beings, and a pleasant voice will undoubtedly make people subconsciously feel good about it.

Jiang Wei was just like that, and his evaluation of Qi Hui improved a bit.

However, being an actor is not just a dubbing job, it requires more than just a voice.

Ling Xiaosu was slightly shocked by Qi Hui's sudden change in voice, but he was someone who had played the leading role in many plays and was not wrong.

"Brother, according to what you said..." Ling Xiao said solemnly, looked around, and said in a slightly lowered voice: "This is a way to make a fortune."

Seeing Yu Zecheng's heart flutter, the pride and boasting on Qi Hui's face turned into five parts of flattery, three parts of joy, and two parts of happiness from having a deal done:
"So, brother, I know you have some previous intelligence, why not share it... hm?"

"Everything is fake, except gold and silver...that's the real thing!"

As soon as the last word was uttered, the slickness, vulgarity and commercialism of that businessman suddenly hit me in the face.

When he was working on projects in his previous life, Qi Hui had no idea how many clients he had accompanied for drinks and social events. This was just the beginning.
Even if it's a little more slick and vulgar, he can do it with ease.

The director slapped his thigh and said, "Not bad!"

This is the Xie Ruolin he wants!
Such a good actor is recommended to me... Hey, is Lao Zhang's eyes blurry or does he not know the value of things?
