Chapter 197 I am...
On March 10th, Xu Yang came to Jinling, the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties. There was a person here who was his target today.
It was past ten o'clock in the morning, and by the time Xu Yang found this person according to his address, it was already twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
Liu Meng looked at the man in front of him and said kindly: "Here we are, we happen to be at the restaurant, let's have a meal together."
Xu Yang was not unreasonable about this, after all, he had to catch the plane without eating breakfast.
"It's just that Director Liu's attitude is too good."
Xu Yang received the call last night. He was a teacher at the school and a member of the National Screenwriters Association.
He said that there was a drama that he liked very much and he wanted to give it a try.
Xu Yang was a little hesitant at first, but when Xu Yang asked what drama it was about, Xu Yang no longer had any doubts.
Because it is "I am a special soldier".
If "Soldier Assault" inspired countless people to dream of joining the army, it allowed those born in the 1990s to see what it means to be a soldier.
Then "I Am a Special Forces" allows those born in 1995 and 2000 to see what a special forces soldier is.
They are both military dramas, so there is no need to separate them into one, two, and three in terms of status, because the audiences overlap, but there are also a large number of people from two eras.
Needless to say, the drama "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" is awesome. It is the only military drama that can compete with "Soldier Assault".
That's why Xu Yangcai only heard the name and immediately ran to Jinling without even making an album.
It's just that director Liu Meng's attitude is a bit confusing. He is said to be the director, but in fact he is also the screenwriter, because this drama is adapted from his novel.
The two of them found a restaurant for a meal. Liu Meng really wanted to find a restaurant for a meal at first, but he gave up because of Xu Yang's status.
But even so, what the two of them ate was somewhat inconsistent with what they were talking about today, and it was not that solemn.
Although he was aware of the director's attitude towards him, Xu Yang didn't think much and kept doing the whole thing.
In front of Liu Meng, he ordered a portion of fried noodles, a large portion of fried noodles, and a whole head of garlic, and just started eating.
Liu Meng was stunned when he saw this. Good guy, you really don’t care about the food.
However, Xu Yang also made a sound of huffing and puffing while cooking, and Liu Meng also had a great appetite and had a delicious meal.
This is a state he has not been in for a long time. After all, with such a large crew, including the screenwriter, director and author of the original work, he has to take care of everything.
These past few months have really made him worry about losing his hair. He can't eat well and sleep well. It's all thanks to Xu Yang that he can eat so well today.
After eating, the two of them leaned on the chairs without any appearance. Liu Meng rubbed his belly and looked at Xu Yang sideways.
"Before I met you or even had this meal with you, I always thought you were the kind of person who couldn't let go. Now, are you so disregarding your image?"
Why do you think you are not pretending to him? Because it doesn't look like it. Over the years, Liu Meng has eaten more food than some people and traveled more. You can tell at a glance whether it is true or false.
When Xu Yang heard this, he also touched his belly and said with a smile: "You may not know that I am from Qin Province, but I will never be shy when it comes to eating noodles."
"Hahaha!"
Liu Meng burst out laughing, but after he finished laughing, he said to Xu Yang: "I've finished eating, and I've laughed. Now it's time to talk about business."
After hearing this, Xu Yang couldn't help but sit up straight and said, "You tell me."
"I'm always the first to say something. Besides, with the friendship over a meal like this, it won't be too tense."
"Actually, I already have a candidate in mind for the role of Zhuang Yan. I just agreed to your audition because I couldn't disgrace my old friend. You understand."
The contrast between Xu Yang and Xu Yang was not surprising. Xu Yang had probably guessed it from the beginning when Liu Meng had a gentle attitude towards him.
After all, which director is so gentle to the actors auditioning? Where does the director's authority lie?
The only possibility is that he is simply entrusted by others and has no thoughts about himself, which is not promising at all.
Under normal circumstances, Xu Yang should give up. After all, this is what the other party said. If he didn't give up, he would really be sorry for the kindness of having this meal together.
But Xu Yang really feels sorry for having this meal together, because this is "I Am a Special Forces Soldier"!
"Director Liu, I understand what you are saying, but this opportunity is rare, so I have to give it a try."
"After all, some things can't be seen clearly on any screen. Just like if I didn't have this meal with you, you wouldn't know that I don't pay attention to my image, right?"
Liu Meng was stunned when he heard what Xu Yang said, then shook his head and smiled, this kid.
But he also knew that young people today would not give up until they see the Yellow River, so let him be convinced.
Liu Meng thought of this and said, "Okay, there will be an audition this afternoon. Have you read the novel?"
"I haven't had time to see it yet," Xu Yang said honestly.
It was useless to tell lies at this time, because Liu Meng would know as soon as he tried it, it would be better to tell the truth.
Regarding Xu Yang not reading his novel, Liu Meng had no expression at all. He was not a great writer.
"Come with me later to get a page of lines, and I'll try this this afternoon."
Xu Yang had no objection. At this time, he was already recalling the protagonist's lines.
After saying that, the two of them packed up and walked, led by Liu Meng to an office, while Liu Meng searched around the room and took out a folder.
I rummaged through it again, but I still couldn't find a page suitable for Xu Yang's lines.
In fact, there are many roles that Xu Yang can perform right away, but Liu Meng didn't want Xu Yang to be so relaxed, or he didn't expect to let Xu Yang pass the test.
"When you join the army? No, no, you have to go through military training to some extent, and you can practice it later."
"It won't work in the later stage either. The complexity in the later stage is relatively small."
"Let's take this. After I first met a girl who was exactly the same as my girlfriend, I just started writing my autobiography."
Xu Yang looked at Director Liu Meng's frown and knew what he was thinking, but Xu Yang didn't worry too much. He could adapt to most situations when he performed normally, and with the addition of cheating, he was stable.
"That's it. Let's take a look at the general plot. It's one o'clock. I'll give you six hours. I'll be waiting for you here at seven o'clock."
Xu Yang took the page of the script handed over by Liu Meng, looked at it, and raised his eyebrows. The difficulty was indeed not small, and the time was only six hours. It was indeed difficult to be sincere.
But is Xu Yang afraid of being embarrassed?
"Okay, I'll be there on time at seven o'clock. Meet Director Liu then."
After saying that, Xu Yang went out and Zhang Yi sent him to a hotel he had opened. In the car, Xu Yang began to recite his lines and analyze the characters.
After arriving at the hotel, Xu Yang said to Zhang Yi: "Don't disturb me in the meantime. Call me at a quarter past six."
After saying that, he closed the door, and Zhang Yi waited in the living room of the suite until a quarter past six.
At a quarter past six, Zhang Yi knocked on the door, but there was no response. It took two more knocks before there was a response.
"Wait another quarter of an hour, knock on the door in a quarter of an hour and I will come out on my own."
After receiving a response, Zhang Yi waited for a quarter of an hour, but this time Xu Yang came out on his own before he even knocked on the door.
Seeing Xu Yang's appearance, Zhang Yi opened his mouth and could only say: "I'll drive."
The two of them almost rushed to the office. It was said to be an office, but in fact it was just a hotel, with Liu Meng's audition room next to it.
Because Liu Meng placed the table in front, there was an identity card on the table that read: "Director."
Liu Meng, who was behind the table, was also frightened by Xu Yang's state at this time, and exclaimed: "Now I actually think there is hope for you."
"Try it."
Xu Yang nodded.
What did Xu Yang look like at this time? He was wearing a wrinkled white shirt, a floppy hat, and a sweater with ropes of different lengths. The most important thing was that his face was depressed, his eyes were red, and his hair was messy, as if he had just stayed up all night surfing the Internet.
This is also the reason why Liu Meng said that he has hope, because Liu Meng also experienced this state when writing novels.
But what surprised Liu Meng even more was what happened later, because he seemed to see his protagonist.
Xiaozhuang and Yatou met again in the music lecture hall, which was invited by Yatou.
He tidied up well before driving, but no matter how he tried to tidy up, he couldn't hide the confusion in his eyes.
Liu Meng was surprised that the moment he said "try it", Xu Yang's eyes suddenly changed, and his aura also changed.
He is no longer like a shady Internet writer who stays at home every day, but a person, a person who has artistic pursuits and artistic literacy, but is full of tragedy.
But Xiaozhuang saw the girl at this time and passed her by, but Xiaozhuang knew that she was Xiaoying.
Looking at the girl's back blankly, Xiaozhuang's eyes changed from surprise to shining, and then lost their brightness again.
But this time, Liu Meng saw him clearly, and he also looked at Xu Yang blankly.
Neither of the two people spoke in the audition room. Xu Yang looked at the air and shed tears silently, while Liu Meng also lost his mind when he looked at Xu Yang.
After a long time, Liu Meng suddenly remembered that this was an audition.
"Just wipe it."
After handing Xu Yang a piece of paper, Liu Meng said in a low voice, then he put his arms around Xu Yang's shoulders and sat on the edge together.
"How did you act?"
Xu Yang wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and said: "I played it with hard work. After playing this role, I am afraid I will never want to act in a military drama again, at least not until I have a breakthrough in my acting skills."
After saying that, Liu Meng chuckled and said: "You haven't even written the word "Ba", so you are so sure that I will choose you?"
"I may not be the most suitable, nor am I the best at acting, but I am the best at acting among the most suitable people."
After saying that, Liu Meng also sighed and said: "You're right. The one I'm interested in is someone I met while watching a drama in Beijing. His image fits the image very well, but his acting skills are not as good as yours."
Xu Yang thought to himself that this was Lao Gu, so he asked, "What's wrong with my image?"
"So handsome."
“…”
Xu Yang never thought that one day he would be disliked for being handsome.
"Okay, I'll give you three days. Come find me here on the 15th in three days for a one-and-a-half month off-team training session. No problem, right?"
"No problem, see you on the 15th!"
