Entertainment Empire

A week later, there was an audition for "Latent". Luo Xun, who had been preparing for a long time, took his assistant Xiao Tao by car to the agreed location and met the director of "Latent" Jiang Wei, the producer of the TV series Zhang Jing and three members of the creative team. Luo Xun also met Sun Honglei and Sun Meili, an actor he admired very much in his previous life. The two shook hands with each other, smiled and exchanged business blows, but there was not much of a competitive atmosphere.

"Which one goes first?"

The audition was not a strict formality, because Luo Xun's role was too big, and the crew could not treat him as an ordinary actor. Although Sun Honglei was not as popular as him, he was still a star who had hit TV series, and today Sun Honglei is Luo Xun's star. Xun's competitor, Luo Xun was praised so highly, and it was not appropriate for Sun Honglei to go through the audition process in a regular manner. Therefore, the attitude shown by the main creative team was to treat everyone as equally as possible.

Just try your best of course.

If there is emphasis, it is more obvious. For example, the second assistant director of the crew was quite enthusiastic towards Luo Xun. In contrast, although he also talked and laughed with Sun Honglei, you can still feel the subtlety if you look carefully. Different.

"Then let me go first."

Sun Honglei smiled and said.

Luo Xun had no objection. Auditions were no better than variety show competitions. The impact of who came first and who came last was actually not that big. He was curious about how Sun Honglei would act in today's scene.

"so."

Jiang Weidao: "We have prepared different situations for the two of you. If Hong Lei, just play the scene where Yu Zecheng goes to the hospital to visit Zuo Lan after his death, we have already arranged the scene next door."

"OK."

Sun Honglei nodded.

There are no lines in this scene, and it is a completely internal drama. It is a bit like Luo Xun's previous performance in "Langya Bang" when he was hit by the death of his great-grandmother. He wanted to cry but did not dare to cry because there was still a colleague standing outside the door. He was suspicious of Li Ya.

"start."

Entering the next room, the scene was indeed set up. There was an actress lying in the car with a pale face to play the dead Zuo Lan. After Sun Honglei made some preparations, the director directly shouted to start.

Reach out.

Sun Honglei opened the white cloth, his movements were obviously a little slow, as if he wanted to give up for final confirmation, and as if he was afraid of seeing the next scene, until he saw the familiar face in front of the white cloth.

That moment.

He staggered back.

After being silent for a long time, he had the courage to take another step forward, bent down, slowly squatted down, and looked closely at the face he loved so much in front of him, as if he wanted to remember her forever, and in this During the process, his body was shaking slightly.

I don’t know how much time passed.

He finally stood up again, covered himself with Zuo Lan's white cloth, and took a deep breath to adjust his mood. Outside the door was Li Ya waiting, and his fight was not over yet.

"call……"

Finishing with a final deep breath, Sun Honglei looked at the director and then at everyone, signaling that he was done. It wasn't that he didn't want to speak, but that he hadn't completely withdrawn his emotions at this time, and his voice was too difficult.

"great."

The director smiled and said.

Everyone clapped quickly, including Luo Xun, who also applauded sincerely and praised his performance just now. This was not a polite business exchange. Sun Honglei's emotions were swirling inside just now, and everyone could feel it. Yes, this kind of male lead who has had hit dramas and whose acting skills have been professionally recognized is indeed very powerful.

"Teacher Luo Xun."

Jiang Wei looked at Luo Xun with a smile. Next was Luo Xun's performance moment. Although Sun Honglei's performance was very strong, it was not impeccable. Luo Xun's acting skills were also well-known, so he still had expectations.

Many people don't know.

In fact, when Jiang Wei just finished writing the book "Latent", the actor who should play Yu Zecheng in his mind was not Sun Honglei at all, let alone Luo Xun who took the initiative, but an actor who was not well-known in the industry, but was once known as the most bookish actor in China. The actor's wife starred in the role, and the role of the heroine Cuiping was played by the actor's wife. This shows that Jiang Wei values ​​Yu Zecheng's bookishness.

"It's my turn."

Luo Xun said with a smile.

Jiang Wei nodded: "You don't need to act in Zuo Lan's part, but for the audition, you have to cope with it. How about you play the part where Yu Zecheng learned about Cuiping's death in the telegram? The set is also ready. , the third room next door.”

"OK."

It was just as Luo Xun expected.

It was difficult to give the clip to Sun Honglei, and it was equally difficult to give the clip to myself. Sun Honglei played the part where Zuo Lan died, and he played the part where Cuiping died. Although the situations were not exactly the same, the emotions were similar, because when people learned about the deep The reaction after the death of the woman he loves should be the same. Zuo Lan and Cuiping are the two women Yu Zecheng deeply loved in his life, so it is easier to make a judgment.

Everyone came to the set location.

Luo Xun sat at the desk.

Sun Honglei waited with bated breath for the performance to begin. He was actually very curious about Luo Xun's strength. Although he had watched the other party's TV series, it was not as intuitive as watching it live. Even if he lost, he hoped that he would be convinced.

"Let's get started."

The director's voice sounded.

Then a digital broadcast came from the radio on the desk. This was the organization's way of delivering a message to Yu Zecheng: "23444567535556, repeat this call in one hour..."

Holding pen in hand.

Luo Xun wrote the two words "Cuiping" on the notebook, then continued to look at the books at hand, and soon deciphered the third word, which was the word "sacrifice" in the word "sacrifice".

He was stunned for a moment.

Luo Xun couldn't help but look at the book at hand again. After confirming that he had not made any mistakes in deciphering, his fingers when turning the book began to tremble uncontrollably, and even the movements of turning the book became trembling and submissive:

"Sacrifice."

Cuiping, sacrifice?

This is the fourth text.

But after just one glance, he couldn't even see clearly, just the outline of the Chinese characters. Luo Xun quickly covered the page with his hand, as if covering the deciphered text in this way would change things, and it seemed that he I just don’t dare to see the final result of this decipherment.

He closed the book.

His expression was blank.

He looked at the table.

He looked at the potted plant.

He looked at the lamp.

His state was completely transformed.

He suddenly picked up the pen case and wanted to insert the pen into the pen case, but it was difficult for him to complete this extremely simple action because his fingers were still shaking uncontrollably and the pen tip was inserted crookedly more than once.

It took three or five attempts to succeed.

Then he took out the brazier again, lit the match, and burned the paper for translation. This time his hands did not shake, because his movements had to slow down to only half of normal.

In the light of fire.

The white paper turned to ashes.

Luo Xun wanted to stand up, but his legs seemed to be paralyzed. A second after he stood up, he sat back down heavily. He could only use his hands to support the table and stand up again, but he still didn't have enough strength, as if he had been hit by something. I lost all my strength and felt like my whole body was paralyzed.

hehe!

He was breathing heavily.

Finally he started to struggle to get up for the third time. This time he even let out a suppressed roar from his throat, and several small muscles on both sides of his tight cheeks spasmed unconsciously. Only then did everyone notice that Luo Xun's His forehead was covered with sweat, and Luo Xun's eyes were already red.

Red and lifeless.
