Chapter 9: Surviving in the cracks

Back to the apartment.

Luo Xun lay on the bed.

As if all the strength in his body was drained.

One step to hell, one step to heaven. He suspected that if it weren't for the final reversal, he would have been on the blacklist of Zhang Jizhong, the big boss, and would have difficulty moving forward in this circle in the future.

Luo Xun knew the cruelty of this circle very well!

But the benefits of taking risks are also amazing!

Now Luo Xun got a role that was originally very slim as a newcomer, and got the opportunity to debut in a big production like "Tianlong Babu", and it was Gusu Murongfu who had a good role. For a new actor, this is a very high starting point!

Turn over in bed.

Luo Xun took out the mobile phone in his pocket and edited a long text message to send to senior Hu Jun, both to inform the other party that he successfully got the role and to express his inner gratitude.

He stopped typing halfway.

Although according to Zhang Jizhong, it was true that he was sure to get the role of Murong Fu, but as long as he had not officially signed the contract with the crew, there would inevitably be variables. Luo Xun did not want to make a big mistake, so he could only suppress his excitement and delete the half-typed message.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Luo Xun opened the door and Kong Shuang came in directly. After just a few days of getting along, the two of them were now quite familiar with each other. This was probably related to the fact that the two were not much different in age and there was no generation gap between them.

"How is it?"

Kong Shuang sat on the chair, poured herself a glass of water, and asked casually while blowing the hot air gently.

She was in a very contradictory mood.

She knew that Luo Xun's chances of success in this audition were very low and the hope was slim, but she couldn't help but feel expectations in her heart.

Luo Xun said, "It's almost done."

Kong Shuang nodded and comforted him softly, "It's okay. Don't be discouraged. The failure of this audition is not your fault. After all, Xiu Qing is a big bearded man... Wait, what did you just say?"

Kong Shuang suddenly reacted.

Luo Xun smiled and said, "I said it's almost done."

Kong Shuang stood up suddenly, staring at Luo Xun with eyes wide open, and her tone was even trembling: "You mean you, successfully won the role of Murong Fu!?"

"That's basically it."

Luo Xun roughly recounted the matter, of course, he also omitted some things, such as he had the memory of his previous life as a foundation, knowing that Mr. Jin would probably revise "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" in the next few years and modify some plots. It's okay to know this kind of thing yourself.

Kong Shuang was stunned when she heard it.

When Luo Xun finished speaking, her voice was obviously full of joy: "Happy, this is our first victory, let's go out for a big meal at noon today to celebrate!"

"I don't have money."

"Sister has money!"

Then what's the point of talking nonsense, let's go.

Lunch was at a restaurant that specializes in Sichuan cuisine. Kong Shuang ordered all the classic dishes, such as Maoxuewang and boiled fish. You know, this city is the capital of China, Yanjing. The quality of this Sichuan restaurant is not low, so the price is naturally not very attractive. Fortunately, Kong Shuang was in a good mood at the moment and did not feel that this meal was too extravagant.

"What kind of family?"

Luo Xun said, "I can afford to eat here."

Kong Shuang said happily, "I am a local hukou in Yanjing, and I am considered a well-off family. At least I have a car and a house. It is not a problem to treat you to a big meal. In the future, I will have to rely on you to make money for me. When you become famous, ten big meals will not be enough to make up for it."

Luo Xun smiled.

Indeed, Kong Shuang will really rely on herself to make money in the future. How much she can earn depends entirely on how much she can earn, because the salary of the agent is a commission from the various commissions of the artists.

"That's right."

While eating, Luo Xun did not forget the business: "My current image is more like a weak scholar, I need to gain weight and muscle, Murong Fu's character is still a warrior after all."

"Leave it to me."

Kong Shuang was a novice before, and she was at a loss when facing many tasks. Now it is different. As long as Luo Xun gets the role of Murong Fu, Kong Shuang's status as an agent will also rise.

...

The next day.

Kong Shuang received a call from the crew of "Dragon Babu". They have confirmed that Luo Xun will play Murong Fu. Putting down the phone, she no longer has any extra concerns and said to Luo Xun: "I will go to the company to find a fitness coach for you!"

"Okay."

Luo Xun nodded.

Immediately sent a message to Hu Jun, informing him of the good news that he got the role, but Hu Jun seemed to be busy and did not reply until Kong Shuang finished his work.

Just as Kong Shuang said.

After taking on the role of Murong Fu, Luo Xun was no longer an insignificant newcomer. The fitness coach she applied for from the company got in touch the next day, and Luo Xun also received a script outline from the crew of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" -

He flipped through it roughly.

The plot was basically faithful to the original.

Then he focused on his role as Murong Fu, how many episodes, where, who he acted with, what lines, etc., all of which needed Luo Xun to remember. As for the pay, Tianguang sent people to negotiate with the crew. Luo Xun, a newcomer who had just debuted, had no right to ask about such things, which was to sign a signature when the contract was officially signed...

In the outline in front of him.

Luo Xun saw the names of the three protagonists, Hu Jun, Gao Hu, and Lin Zhiying, who were the same as the candidates in his memory, including the supporting actors, who were not affected by the parallel time and space and remained the same.

For example, Liu Tao plays Ah Zhu;

Liu Yifei plays Wang Yuyan;

There are also Jiang Xin plays Mu Wanqing, Ji Chunhua plays Duan Yanqing, and Chen Hao plays Ah Zi, etc. The lineup is luxurious, especially Luo Xun, who roughly knows the future development, and can see the star-studded cast!

"Now I am one of them!"

This is the most exciting thing for Luo Xun. "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" is his starting point, but it will never be his end. He has full confidence in himself. He will definitely be on the red carpet show in a few years!

However, Luo Xun was not happy for too long.

Getting the role is just passing the first level!

Looking at the script in his hand, Luo Xun knew that although he successfully got the role of Murong Fu, this script alone is far from enough to perform this role well!

The reason is very simple.

The script in his hand has not been changed at all. Murong Fu is still a stereotyped villain. From the lines to the actions, he is clearly labeled as a shameless villain. This will be easy to play, but at the same time, the soul of the character will be lost...

Clenched his fists slightly.

Luo Xun doesn't like empty performances.

He has made some preparations: "The filming may be more difficult than I thought. The big bearded man may not accept my interpretation of the role. The previous audition has already explained some problems. He wants to choose Xiu Qing. It is for this reason that there will be a tough battle in the future..."

Luo Xun is no longer blindly optimistic.

How to interpret a different Murong Fu without causing the big bearded man to be disgusted is the biggest difficulty that Luo Xun will face. This time, there is no old Jin to help. He must interpret Murong Fu's blindness, but he must not lose the charm of the character itself!

He knows it very well!

In the crew of "Tianlong Babu", the big bearded man is like a lion in a territorial position, and the crew is his sacred and inviolable territory. He will definitely maintain his territory and sovereignty.

This is a natural conflict!

Luo Xun wants to interpret Murong Fu in his mind without causing dissatisfaction to Zhang Jizhong. The difficulty is comparable to walking on a tightrope. He must learn to survive in the cracks!
