Chapter 161, No. 37.

The day of the audition.

Lian Xiao rushed to Wen Li’s apartment downstairs early in the morning to pick her up for the audition.

The auditions for the Who theater group are open casting for the whole society, whether the actor has a background or a relationship is not a factor in the group’s consideration, everything is based on the acting skills.

Acting is good, fit the character image, the crew will be hired.

Early in the morning, a long line outside the venue, Wen Li eyes swept across the scene, found that most of the artists auditioning are fresh faces, energetic, like fresh graduates or non-graduates of the college students, fewer than some of the famous artists over the competition.

Who is a new work of suspense carefully designed by Xu Da, with a good script, strong characterization and explosive plot, it should be a gateway for many artists to compete for high quality resources, but the scene is not even the shadow of the popularity and strength of good artists, it is really strange.

Lian Xiao took the number plate and walked to her side, sticking it on her clothes, pulling her to find a corner to wait.

Gradually, the long line outside the venue shrinks by one-third, Wen Li looks down at the number plate on her clothes, number 35, it should be her soon.

The staff stood at the entrance of the venue and shouted a number, “No. 30.”

There were still five people left, and it was almost time for her.

Wen Li was so nervous that her palms were sweating, she rubbed her hands to ease her tension.

Lian Xiao held her catkin and put the cell phone in her hand on her palm, “Play for a while, distract yourself, I’ll call you when you arrive.”

Wen Li pressed the bright cell phone screen, there were several messages displayed on the screen.

She unlocked the phone screen and tapped the message from the notification bar, the message in the contact dialog box showed unread in red.

Lu Cheng: 銆嶴ister Li, cheer up for the audition! Good luck.

Zhang Xu: ‘A thousand days to raise an army is an hour to use an army. Director Xu Da has carefully prepared a suspense movie, which is said to be ready to be used for awards, so perform well and try to get it.

Director: “Director Xu and I have some friendship, if you can’t pass the audition, I’ll help you to ask him. Also, come back early to record the program, it’s hard to have an empty wallet.”

Zhou Lie: “Your sister-in-law has prepared a table of food for you. If you pass the audition, consider it a celebration of your success. By the way, I secretly told you that the program team hasn’t started recording the program yet, we have to wait until the afternoon. Rush over early, and when the recording is over, I’ll take you to your sister-in-law’s restaurant for a drink.”

Mengjiu: ‘Don’t ask about the result, have fun with the process, and consider it a trip to accumulate experience. The most important thing in life is to be happy, remember to smile when you come back for the recording.

Pei Si: ”Smile.

Wen Li’s smile at the bottom of her eyes spread to her heart, her slightly cool fingertips tapping on the keyboard of the screen, replying one by one.

Lian Xiao gently touched her elbow, reminding her, “It’s almost your turn, go in first and wait.”

Wen Li withdrew her line of sight, put her cell phone back into Lian Xiao’s hand, and lifted her foot to step towards the entrance of the venue.

The staff stood at the entrance and looked around, shouting loudly, “No. 35, No. 36.”

Wen Li answered and followed the staff’s footsteps into the waiting area.

The staff asked her in a low voice, “Are you alone? No. 36 didn’t follow?”

Immediately, the staff thought that there were many artists who were kicked off the stage in less than five minutes of auditioning today, and some artists who chose to abstain when the numbers were counted on the spot.

She guessed that No. 36 might not have arrived or had abstained.

“You go in first.”

With a command, the staff went out to call the next auditioner, No. 37.

Wen Li was wearing a black silk shirt with black pants, the dark color of the clothes accentuated her fair and flawless skin. Her slightly thin and soft red lips revealed a faint smile as she graciously stood on the stage to introduce herself.

Her ensemble today was in line with Qin Yao’s darkened image in the later stages, and her demeanor and look were also more fitting for the character.

The director sat in the middle and scrutinized her, from the looks of it, it basically fit the character better, he nodded and signaled for her to start performing.

He wanted to see if Wen Li’s acting skills were over the top.

At this time, a knock sounded on the door.

Outside the door stood a maturely dressed young entertainer, wearing a lavender designer dress that exceeded one hundred thousand dollars, stepping on ten centimeter high heels as she slowly walked onto the stage.

She slightly apologized to the interviewer on the stage by slightly bending down, ”Sorry to interrupt your process, director can I apply to perform a section first? I have an announcement to catch up with later, can I audition first?”

After a slight pause of half a second, she inclined her head with a smile on her face and asked Wen Li in a small voice, “Is it possible?”

The director under the stage, looked up at the number plate on her, “No. 37? You’re next.”

The implication was that fifteen minutes couldn’t wait?

The Who crew gave actors a fifteen-minute audition time, and the auditioning actor’s acting skills were not on point, and they were kicked off the stage for no more than three to five minutes, so she couldn’t even wait for a few minutes or fifteen minutes.

The newly entered young artist stood on the stage with an embarrassed face and pleaded, “Director, can you accommodate me? My announcement is going to start shooting in an hour, and if I can’t make it there, I’ll have to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages.”

The director rubbed his right hand against his chin in thought, rashly allowing one artist to audition first was very unfair to the other.

But Xu Da himself was very talent-shy and didn’t want to miss out on an actor with potential.

Jiang Zhi, the assistant director sitting on Director Xu’s right side, knew the man’s temperament and voiced, “How about letting the two of you audition together for a randomly selected section of the plot?”

It would save time and not be unfair.

A bright light flashed in the director’s eyes, looking slightly appreciatively at the assistant director on the right side, his voice carrying a slight crispness, “Okay, it’s settled, and the later auditions will also be two-by-two to save time.”

With a word, the assistant director got up and left, instructing the staff outside to arrange for the auditioners to wait for the scene according to the two-by-two pairing process.

The director looked up and said to the young artist at number 37, “Introduce yourself first.”

Wen Li wisely retreated to the back, leaving the young artist to introduce himself on the stage.

Within the quiet audition venue, only a sweet self-introduction tone resounded.

“Hello interviewers, my name is Chen Weiwei, I’m 163 centimeters tall, weigh 86 pounds, and graduated from XXX ……”

After the introduction of basic personal information, the director then extracted a plot, a scene where Qin Yao personally sent in Chen Chang Xin into an orange.

Xu Da extracted the plot is about Qin Yao personally send into Chen Chang Xin into the tangerine pro dialogue, Wen Li previously rehearsed with Pei Si, but also many times to analyze the characteristics of the characters, to grasp the rhythm of the plot strength, for Wen Li is a very simple section of the scene.

The director raised his head, his gaze locked on the two men’s bodies, and said in a deep voice, “One of you will play Qin Yao, and one of you will play Chen Changxin, discuss it.”

Chen Weiwei turned sideways, looked at Wen Li with a smile, and spat out her tongue, “Do you mind if I play Qin Yao?”

She did not ask Wen Li’s opinion on casting and directly set the role, Wen Li had no choice.

Wen Li returned the smile graciously, “Don’t mind.”

She only wanted to finish the audition quickly and rush to the recording site of Wuji Infinite, the default payment was strange and expensive.

A hint of smugness flashed under Chen Weiwei’s eyes as she nodded slightly towards the interviewer on stage.

Xu Da spoke, “Let’s begin!”

There is one more chapter, the update time is set at 8:30pm
