Act 1:

[1] Car radio voiceover: Today, the weather across the state will turn cloudy. Some central areas will have rain or snowfall in the afternoon, and there will be heavy fog in mountainous areas early this morning.

【2】At the foot of the foggy mountain, a car with lights on moved along the mountain road.

Car radio voice-over:…

After reading the script of The Crucible, Chen You was shocked for a long time.

Even though it is not a complete script, this script is the most touching script that Chen You has ever received.

The Crucible is very large in scale. The story mainly tells the story of sexual violence in a school for the deaf and mute being discovered, and the school teachers and human rights campaigners working together to uncover the shady story behind it.

The male protagonist Jiang Renhao is a new art teacher.

catch!

Must take it!

Okay, Brother Chen, I'll contact you right away.

Chen You held this precious script in his hands and his excitement was palpable.

For the thirty-three-year-old Chen You, who is tepid, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

As a powerful Mesozoic actor in the entertainment industry, Chen You appears on the screen quite frequently.

The ones he most often appears in are some police and gangster films, playing supporting roles such as captains and squad captains.

Six years ago, Chen You won the Best Supporting Actor in one of the three major domestic Golden Phoenix Awards, but nothing has changed.

There is no shortage of acting opportunities for capable actors, especially male actors, but they have never been popular.

The roles are basically supporting roles. Even if Chen You is offered a starring role, it will be a terrible script.

This situation is too common in the entertainment industry.

In the entire entertainment industry, the most indispensable thing is capable actors.

The reason why there are popular stars and popular actors in front of the stage depends on whether capital supports them or not.

The commercial value of a non-A-list Mesozoic actor cannot be compared with that of Xiao Xianrou.

No one is praising it, there are no scandals, and there is no hype, so naturally it cannot become popular.

In the entertainment industry, there is another important word - opportunity.

Some actors have been idle for half their lives, but suddenly become popular when no one expects them, and they are reluctant to take on the roles.

The reason why Chen You is so excited is because the importance of the protagonist's role is far greater than the 9% of the supporting roles!

This is the consensus in the entertainment industry.

Even if the entertainment industry is developed, how many movies can be produced in a year?

How many leading male roles can there be?

Except for those bad movies, there are even fewer positions and opportunities. There is no chance for a tepid Mesozoic actor like Chen You.

Be famous, who in the entertainment industry doesn’t want to be famous?

Only by becoming popular can Chen You receive more and better scripts.

Yanjing.

Chang'an Film and Television Company.

Chen You almost didn't hesitate. He booked a flight as soon as he received the news from Lin Qiu and rushed to Yanjing.

As soon as he entered the Chang'an living room, Chen You saw Lin Qiu, Liya and assistant director Lu Yan discussing the details of the script.

Seeing Chen You coming, they all stood up and greeted Chen You.

Lin Qiu and Liya still admire and respect Chen You, an actor who focuses on acting.

When they met for the first time, Liya was a little reserved, but Lin Qiu said with a natural expression:

Teacher Chen, you should have read the script of The Crucible. I wonder if you are interested in trying this role?

Upon hearing the title Teacher Chen, Chen You immediately waved his hand and said:

No, no, no, no, I'm just an actor, the teacher can't handle it.

Call me Chen You, or if you don't mind, just call me Brother Chen.

Just by looking at Chen You's clothes, you can tell that Chen You has no pretensions. He wears quite simple clothes and is quite easy-going in his conversation.

That's okay.

Of course! If I don't come with such a good script and opportunity, then who am I to be an actor?

Chen You immediately smiled and said:

I just watched Love Letters on the plane. It was so wonderful.

Liya's acting skills are superb.

One month after Love Letters is released, it will be available to watch on online platforms.

Matters in this area have always been handled by the company, and Lin Qiu had no control at all.

Hearing Chen You's praise, Liya's cheeks turned slightly red, Brother Chen is so complimentary.

No, no, no, this is not flattery.

Good is good.

Chen You said sincerely.

He doesn't even bother to flatter a great director in Xiazhou, let alone a 20-year-old rookie director.

Okay, Brother Chen, can you try it out now?

No problem at all.

Chen You said immediately.

The audition requirements for a movie couldn't be more reasonable.

The reason why the first choice was Chen You was based on the actor's acting skills and temperament.

Lin Qiu's current directing skills have not yet reached the master level, so he will look for actors based on the temperament of the original work in his previous life.

If Lin Qiu's directing skills reached S level, the casting range would be wider.

After a simple audition, Lin Qiu was quite satisfied with the performance of Chen You, a professional actor!

Although Chen You is a bit talkative in private, once he gets into the mood, he becomes a completely different person when acting.

Lin Qiu even felt that he had more temperament than Kong Liu in his previous life.

The salary was finalized and the contract was signed immediately.

That's it, Brother Chen.

There will be a big audition for The Crucible tomorrow. Why don't you come and help out?

The big audition will audition some supporting roles, as well as some very important minor actors in the movie!

During the audition, you can get into the mood better by acting with real people than by acting in the air.

no problem.

While Chen You responded, he was surprised that Chang'an Film and Television Company could move so quickly.

You know, in the film industry, investing in one film a year is not considered slow.

However, Love Letter directed by Lin Qiu has just been released, and the second film The Crucible is being prepared.

Once the cast is chosen, filming will begin in July.

The most important reason is still in polishing the script.

When the movie actually started shooting, it was shot quite quickly because the time limit was limited.

But polishing the script is quite time-consuming. A successful movie must be based on a successful movie script!

But the script is really not a problem for Lin Qiu...

As long as a suitable movie is drawn, Lin Qiu only needs to slightly adapt the script.

In the hot summer, Chang'an Film and Television Company was crowded with actors who came to audition.

Compared with the number of people who auditioned for Love Letter, it was more than ten times more, and there were many famous actors who came to audition!

Since the news of the audition for The Crucible was released, I don't know how many film and television companies and investors have come to inquire about investment cooperation and the situation of male and female protagonists.

Lin Qiu's current traffic is quite good among movie fans.

Once a new work is released, there will definitely be a lot of attention.

The new film directed by a 20-year-old talented newcomer is full of gimmicks.

As a result, some film and television companies naturally want to insert actors from their own companies, and many film and television companies are directly targeting the positions of male and female protagonists!

The rules of the entertainment industry have always been like this.

Unfortunately, Changan is very tough.
