I've already reached the top level, so I only need to gain proficiency

Chapter 18 Scheming Man ‘Tell Lao Mo, I want to eat fish! ’ (please chase me)

Director Zhang's audition was rigorous but not complicated.

In addition to a few actors who have already been appointed to audition for designated roles.

Others can communicate with him first, choose a role, and then dress up for an audition to see the final effect in front of the camera.

If it's the character Zhang Huaimou wants, he can make a decision on the spot and directly sign the contract to join the team.

There is a makeshift dressing room in the studio.

at this time,

Almost all the actors who came to the crew to audition were crowded inside.

Logically speaking, auditions for important roles should actually be handled separately.

Rarely does a director bring actors together in such a swarm of ways.

If it's someone from the third or fourth tier that's not well-known, that's fine.

But among the people coming over right now, Ning Yuyan, Zhang Jianlin, Sun Danfei, Zhou Yi, etc., none of them are hot actors at the moment.

The size is also considered to be a bit high-end.

It would be better if there was no Liangzi in private.

But if there had been competition for resources, it would be a bit awkward to get together today.

However, Zhang Huaimou's status in the industry doesn't mean he needs to care about this.

There are really many people who want to come to his play.

Not long after,

Zhang Huaimou came in with his assistant, ready to start discussions before the audition.

Ning Yuyan looked around and couldn't see Su Mu's figure, so she frowned slightly.

Shouldn't you be late for your first audition?

Even if you are lucky and get selected by Zhang Huaimou after releasing a song, it doesn't mean anything. There is still a high chance that the director will pass.

Besides, what Director Zhang dislikes most is actors being late.

Sighed.

Ning Yuyan took out her mobile phone and prepared to send a WeChat message to Su Mu to remind her.

Originally, she really didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

But after all, if you are entrusted by others, you must be loyal to them, otherwise the little ancestor will be unhappy.

Ning Yuyan edited a WeChat message and was about to send it out.

Suddenly, I heard some small discussions around me.

"Look, isn't that Sumu?"

"Hmph, I didn't expect him to really dare to come? Are you really not afraid of being directly passed by Director Zhang and embarrassed?"

"He is different from us small characters. He is still a popular male star after all. He has to be given some face wherever he goes. He probably has a relationship, otherwise Director Zhang would not have found him for an audition."

"I still remember the previous award ceremony. I am truly worthy of being the person who 'bought awards' for two consecutive years. He is also very thick-skinned. He dared to say that he wanted to participate in director Zhang's play in front of the audience. He defeated the crowd with his acting skills. …Tsk tsk, let’s see how he was slapped in the face by Director Zhang today.”

"His new song a few days ago is quite good, but the leading actors in our drama are not suitable for him. Even if they are competing, they are Zhang Jianlin and Zhou Yi. Su Mu's acting skills are not even wild, there is no chance. .”

"Well, that's true. The key point is that he seems to be late. I'm afraid Director Zhang won't like it even more."

At this time, everyone around the dressing room was discussing quietly.

Ning Yuyan, who was worried, also looked up.

Then he saw Su Mu coming in from the door.

At this moment, he had a bright smile, and his handsomeness had a temperament of restraint and abstinence, which suddenly made Ning Yuyan and several other actresses have a little... little call.

Of course, it's just a little bit.

But this is already not easy.

Because the most indispensable thing in the entertainment industry is handsome men and beautiful women.

It can be said that just picking up a lot of them will make everyone tired of looking at them, so their vision and resistance to appearance must be stronger than ordinary people.

"Hello, Director Zhang, I'm Su Mu. Are you late?"

Su Mu greeted him very naturally, without any sense of nervousness about being tested.

If this were the case for other young actors, who would arrive late and be watched by Director Zhang, their hands would probably shake.

At this time, everyone around them laughed secretly in their hearts when they saw Su Mu swaggering in like this and greeting Director Zhang as if nothing had happened.

Zhang Huaimou is famous for scolding actors, especially actors who act like celebrities and are late. He scolds them the most harshly. Almost every drama has been on the hot search for several days because of this.

Therefore, in everyone's eyes, it would be difficult for Su Mu to have a good result today.

At this moment, Zhang Huaimou was looking at Su Mu.

Unconsciously, his eyes actually lit up.

In fact, when Su Mu first walked in, he wanted to ask him to get out. No more auditions.

But why it stopped.

It was because of Su Mu's controlling smile when she greeted him.

Zhang Huaimou was heartbroken.

As a great director, an old artist, and a professor at the Beijing Film Academy, his ability to observe a person's details is naturally far beyond ordinary people.

Anyone with a professional background knows that whether you are an actor or a director, you need a pair of observant eyes.

In the drama profession, those who have not learned to observe will be defined as having no talent.

It's enough to see its importance.

Only by observing everything can we see the entire surface clearly from the point to the line, and finally from the line.

This is an overall framework and logic.

Therefore, for a master-level director like Zhang Huaimou, the audition for each play actually begins when he first meets the actor.

It was just that he was observing secretly and no one knew.

Whether an actor is attentive, attentive and wise to a play.

That can be reflected very well from the moment you enter the group.

Perhaps most people are quite ordinary and don't see anything special about them.

But some people are exceptions.

And the current Sumu is one of them.

In the eyes of outsiders, Su Mu is now a handsome latecomer in a suit, and is even about to be scolded.

However, Zhang Huaimou saw something different.

What he saw was Sumu's logic and understanding of the script's framework.

The release of Sumu is a big deal.

The retro suit is dark blue, wide at the top and narrow in the middle. If you check it carefully, you will know that this style only became popular in the mainland around 2000.

Most of them were imported foreign trade goods worn by the nouveau riche who were doing business at the time when it was open to the outside world.

There is a silk scarf on the chest, which is very old-fashioned, but very eye-catching.

The watch was a big gold one, there was no tie, just a shirt with three buttons open.

From head to toe, it does not seem to be the fashionable style of this era, although wearing Sumu can completely make people ignore the rustic feeling.

But in Zhang Huaimou's eyes, this look is the later state of the character Gao Qiqiang in the script!

In addition, after Su Mu came in, he seemed to be neither humble nor arrogant, but he had a strange feeling of controlling his smile.

A bit restrained in badness, deep in ruthlessness, and a bit anxious in an undisguised way.

Isn't this how Gao Qiqiang and Gao Qisheng feel?

There is no need for words to fight between masters. You only need to see what you do and what you express. Everything is completely in the eyes of the other party.

A smile appeared on Zhang Huaimou's lips, and he suddenly said:

"Sumu?"

Su Mu: "It's me."

Zhang Huaimou: "You are late, you know. If I just let you lose face in today's audition, what would you do if you were 'him'?"

"!!!"

"???"

"..."

At this moment, when Zhang Huaimou said this, the dressing room suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked confused.

None of the important actors, including Ning Yuyan, Zhang Jianlin and Zhou Yi, understood what Director Zhang meant.

Could this be a deliberate attempt to embarrass Su Mu?

Humph, it turns out that popular celebrities are not popular with big directors because they have no real material.
