Chapter 40 Auditions
In the waiting room, Gu Zhe's manager couldn't help but carefully scrutinized the youth in front of him.
From an agent's professional point of view, the young man's appearance is extremely good, but what really caught the agent's attention was the young man's calm attitude at the moment.
The work "Subversion" gathers big names, whether it is the director, the screenwriter, or even the actors who only play supporting roles, they are the most elite group of people in the industry.
Under such circumstances, the young man who came to audition did not show any nervousness.This kind of emotional management is what I think artists need most.
The manager couldn't help but love talent, and said, "I'm Changyu's manager, Yang Chen."
Ye Qiyuan nodded knowingly, and replied: "Hello, Brother Yang, my name is Ye Qiyuan, and the company is Zhanhua."
"You are the actor who played the mermaid prince in "Into the World"?" Hearing Ye Qiyuan's name, Yang Chen suddenly realized and patted his thigh.He hasn't taken the time to watch this movie yet, but Di Cheng spent a lot of effort to blackmail a little-known artist, and it turned out that he reaped the consequences of himself, which has become a joke in the industry.
Ye Qiyuan has only played a small supporting role in the movie so far. The reason why Yang Chen, a senior manager, can remember his name is not only because of the unexpected popularity of Cang Ya he played, but also because of the unexpected popularity of his role as Cang Ya. The vocalization also made Yang Chen feel that this artist is very interesting.
Almost all the members of Qian Dongfeng's team were dispatched to speak for Ye Qiyuan, and even Qian Dongfeng himself, who seldom showed up, specifically mentioned Ye Qiyuan in the interview.
Such a good relationship is not available to everyone.
Yang Chen didn't maliciously speculate that this was the result of the backstage operations behind Ye Qiyuan. At most, powerful capital could only sway the director to speak out for him, but even the trainee makeup artist was gone. This is not something capital can do.
"The mermaid prince you played was very well received!" Yang Chen took the initiative to shake hands with Ye Qiyuan.He thought about it: the current situation in Zhanhua is chaotic, and it is a good opportunity to poach people.
Ye Qiyuan smiled calmly, and said, "Qian taught me a lot."
Hearing the word "Director Qian" from Ye Qiyuan's mouth, Yang Chen suddenly realized that the artist in front of him was an actor who had worked with Qian Dongfeng, a commercial film director!
His eyes widened instantly.
Gu Jinshang and Qian Dongfeng were at odds with each other, and neither of them looked down on the other.Except for big names like Ji Yao, no actor who has been with Qian Dongfeng dared to go to Gu Jinshang to make trouble.
And Ye Qiyuan's only work so far is Qian Dongfeng's "Into the World". It can be said that the acting skills he brings now are all produced by Qian Dongfeng.
This is all written in the actor's profile, Director Gu would be surprised if he didn't blow up.
Yang Chen's heart suddenly turned cold, it wasn't that he was slow to react, but that Ye Qiyuan was too calm, as if he didn't know the conflict between Qian Dongfeng and Gu Jinshang at all.
The fingers he put in his pocket to get the business card paused and hesitated for a while, and he just wanted to remind Ye Qiyuan not to mention Qian Dongfeng during the audition, but the corner of Yang Chen's mouth twitched suddenly.
Ye Qiyuan also auditioned for the role of Cheng Fei, right?
The role has basically been decided by default, and Gu Zhe has also entered. What chance does this Ye Qiyuan have for auditioning?
Gu Zhe was watched by Yang Chen when he was a child star, he was very confident in Gu Zhe's acting skills.Even without the relationship between Gu Zhe and Gu Jinshang, the acting skills honed by Ye Qiyuan, a supporting role with little role, could not compare to Gu Zhe even if he worked hard!
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Yang Chen's face. After struggling for a while, he still took out a business card and handed it to Ye Qiyuan: "I need to practice more."
Ye Qiyuan saw the change in Yang Chen's face just now, the curvature of the corner of his mouth remained unchanged, and reached out to take Yang Chen's business card.
Yang Chen secretly sighed, thinking to himself, this is a good seed, but the second audition will meet Waterloo, I don't know if it will hit this newcomer.
Although he regretted it, but the one who was about to get the role was an artist brought by him, Yang Chen couldn't help feeling a little bit subtly complacent.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the waiting room, and outside the door was Lao Liang who hurried over.
Old Liang seemed to be stuck in the door frame. While he was panting, he was still in a daze, and his facial features seemed to be still in a state of shock.
Seeing Lao Liang, Yang Chen subconsciously thought that he was here to inform Ye Qi that Yuan Yuanfei's role had been confirmed and let him leave.
Unexpectedly, Lao Liang turned his stiff neck to Ye Qiyuan, stumbling, and said, "Ye, Young Master Ye, Director Gu asked you to audition for the role of Cheng Fei."
Before Ye Qiyuan could react, an exclamation came from behind him: "What?"
Yang Chen suddenly stood up from the chair, seeing Lao Liang and Ye Qiyuan looking towards him, he realized that he had overreacted.
He sat down embarrassingly, and forced a smile at Ye Qiyuan: "You can try it, or you can try it..."
Ye Qiyuan slightly curled his lips and nodded towards him: "Excuse me."
After the door of the waiting room was closed, Yang Chen immediately couldn't help standing up and pacing.Isn't Gu Zhe already in the past?Why would you ask someone to audition?
There is only one possibility in this situation, and that is that Director Gu is not satisfied with Gu Zhe's performance.
Lao Liang, who was startled by Yang Chen, had long since returned to his previous sleek appearance. When he was leading the way, he became more and more warm to Ye Qiyuan, and he didn't know what he had imagined.
Ye Qiyuan was not too surprised when he was told to audition.
Gu Zhe is the nephew of director Gu Jinshang, if she was really satisfied with Gu Zhe's performance, she wouldn't go out of her way to hold an audition for the role of Cheng Fei.
This is also the reason why Ye Qiyuan was determined not to change roles before.
Ye Qiyuan opened the door of the audition room, and before stepping in, he keenly felt three beams of real eyes cast on his face.
The corner of his mouth froze, thinking, why such a big fight?
Looking up into the house, Ye Qiyuan successfully found the owner of one of the gazes.
The man was wearing a high-end suit with expensive fabrics and fine tailoring, and his long fingers covered by black leather gloves overlapped, showing the subtle discomfort in the man's heart at this moment.
Although Ji Yao is sitting slightly to the left, but because of his tall stature, crow-feather-like black hair and calm demeanor bring out a sense of oppression that cannot be ignored, so at first glance he seems to be more eye-catching than Director Gu who is sitting in the middle .
Facing the cold eyes looking at him, Ye Qiyuan thought of Ji Yao's advice to him before, and couldn't help but look away guiltily.
I just didn't follow his suggestion to change roles, so I'm angry?
I didn't see it, this person has a strong desire to control.
Ye Qiyuan couldn't help but slander, and secretly made up his mind to stay away from this man in the future.After all, although Ye Qiyuan has an obedient and obedient face, it is only superficially "obedient".
If he was really obedient, he wouldn't just promise Yan Dai not to mention Qian Dongfeng, and then turn around and bring out Qian Dongfeng's name.
The other gaze came from Gu Zhe who was standing by the wall. He took advantage of his privilege a little bit, and did not leave after the audition, but was going to stand here and stare at Ye Qiyuan.
He couldn't believe that this person acted better than him!
Ye Qiyuan looked around and walked into the room, without looking at Gu Zhe at all.
He walked to the middle, bowed slightly and said, "Hello teachers, I am Ye Qiyuan, an artist from Zhanhua, here to audition for the role of Cheng Fei."
At this time, the owner of the third gaze turned his gaze away from Ye Qiyuan's face and landed on the artist's information and registration form in his hand.She lowered her head and glanced, and suddenly a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Have you acted in Qian Dongfeng's play?"
Hearing Gu Jinshang's words, Ye Qiyuan felt that the screenwriters and assistant directors in the room focused their eyes on him.There was surprise and ridicule in this look, and a female screenwriter even showed him the expression of looking at a warrior.
And Ji Yao, who was sitting next to Director Gu, lowered his eyes slightly at this time, and moved his overlapping fingers slightly, with an appearance of "not as I expected", which made people feel inexplicable.
Seeing this, Ye Qiyuan bent his mouth again, looked straight at Director Gu Jinshang and nodded, "That's right."
His straightforward attitude surprised Gu Jinshang. Everyone in the industry knew that she and Qian Dongfeng were at odds, and it was even more likely that the actors who came to audition for her play did not know.
There have been actors who have worked with Qian Dongfeng come to her crew to audition before, but when she asked, they all hesitated, and it was the first time Gu Jinshang had seen such a straightforward answer like Ye Qiyuan's.
She restrained her expression, gently pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and looked down at Ye Qiyuan's personal information carefully.
After looking through it, Gu Jinshang's newly raised expectations were extinguished a lot.
Knowing that someone had heard that the role of Cheng Fei had already been confirmed, she still decided to participate in the audition. She thought that she would be waiting for a powerful actor with acting skills and experience comparable to Gu Zhe, but she didn't expect it to be just a rookie.
Gu Jinshang was silent for a while, and everyone in the room was waiting for her to speak.
It is true that Gu Jinshang has never used an actor who has worked with Qian Dongfeng, but the reason is not that she and Qian Dongfeng disagree.As a director in charge, he will not involve personal grievances in his work, but it is irrefutable that the actors who have participated in commercial films all the year round cannot meet the requirements of Gu Jinshang, a senior director of literary and artistic films.
She raised her head and glanced at Ye Qiyuan who was sitting on the simple chair in the middle, and unexpectedly found that in this awkward atmosphere that made people restless, this young artist with a bit of baby fat on his face unexpectedly He looked calm and relaxed, without any sign of nervousness.
"How old are you?" Gu Jinshang glanced at Ye Qiyuan's face, and suddenly asked such a question.
After she finished asking, she realized that the age of the young man had already been written on the information. She was 22 years old, and she looked young.
When Gu Jinshang asked the question, Ji Yao who was sitting on the side did not pay attention to the progress of Ye Qiyuan's audition, but leaned on the back of the chair and looked down at the script quickly.
"If you have read the script and the original work, you should know that the character Cheng Fei is still a teenager. In the original work, the story begins when he is 15 years old. Even if the script compresses the plot, it still sets his age at around seventeen or eighteen years old. To be honest, your age is not appropriate anymore."
Gu Jinshang spoke slowly and clearly.
Hearing this, Ye Qiyuan smiled slyly. He glanced at Ji Yao and lowered his head to read the script, and replied: "In the first award-winning film of Ji Yingdi at the age of 20, he played every stage of a character from youth to old age; A few years ago, he was almost 30 years old, and he still went to campus literary films and played a cameo role as a campus male god."
Such an answer vividly shows that age is not a big problem for actors, and even Gu Jinshang can't say anything.The female screenwriter who previously regarded Ye Qiyuan as a warrior couldn't help secretly giving him a thumbs up.
He dared to cue Ji Yingying, I admire him!
Seeing this, Gu Zhe, who was standing in the corner, curled his lips gloatingly. With his aunt's appearance, it seemed that he didn't even want to give Ye Qiyuan the chance to audition.
Hearing the disobedient young man in front of him mention his name, Ji Yao leisurely raised his eyes from the script and glanced at him.
He didn't speak to Ye Qiyuan, but handed the opened script to Director Gu, leaning slightly and whispering something.In the end, Gu Jinshang nodded: "Okay, since you said his strength is not bad..."
As she said that, she turned her head and pushed the script forward, and said to Ye Qiyuan: "Here is another character whose age matches yours, but the role is a little less. Would you like to try it?"
The smile on the corner of Ye Qiyuan's mouth faded slightly, he took a fixed look at Ji Yao, then turned his gaze to Director Gu, with a gentle but firm tone: "Director, I'm here to audition for the role of Cheng Fei."
As soon as he said this, the rest of the people in the audition room looked at him not with surprise but with horror.
Not even going down the steps given by Ji Yingdi?
Gu Jinshang was made to laugh for a while by his insistence, this kid is quite interesting.
"Okay, let's try this part."
The audition clip she pushed to Ye Qiyuan was the same as the audition clip of Gu Zhe before, it was a scene where Cheng Fei talked to his mother after he found out that he had lost his things.
This audition was related to Ye Qiyuan's life. He had exhausted his brain cells and digested the entire script long ago, so the entire scene and its cause and effect emerged with just a glance at his mind.
He stood up, looked at the layout of the room, and subconsciously found a corner with a very suitable light and shadow layout based on his shooting experience in his previous life.
Then Ye Qiyuan tried to enter the scene, walking around with a little eagerness.
As soon as he moved, all the people watching his performance in the room immediately realized that it was different.
Although they both play the role of Cheng Fei, Ye Qiyuan and Gu Zhe's performance focuses are subtly different.Although Cheng Fei, played by Ye Qiyuan, was equally anxious, his anxiety was not revealed.
His footsteps were slightly heavy, but even in such an urgent moment, he still maintained a near-perfect etiquette. Every step was as regular and elegant as measured by a ruler, but not rigid.Only a slightly tense expression and dull footsteps are the only "flaws" of this young man.
With Ye Qiyuan's interpretation, the image of a young heir carefully cultivated by the aristocratic family is vividly presented.
He is the young son of the family who has been influenced by the family background and etiquette is carved into his bones. Although he is still immature, his mind is far deeper than that of his peers.
The precise control of the character's age surprised Gu Jinshang, who had no expectations just now, and couldn't help but get serious.
That's why she was dissatisfied with Gu Zhe's performance.
Cheng Fei is definitely not just a simple boy. He fought against his mother who was a princess of another country, and he was able to support a huge family when he was a boy. The support of the movie villain force.
Such a teenager is definitely mature and contradictory.
What also surprised Gu Jinshang was the artist in front of him's control of etiquette, his ease of retraction, every move and even the tiniest movement blended into a pleasing elegance.
Such a textbook-like benefit is hard to see even in the circle of contemporary aristocratic families.Thinking of this, Gu Jinshang couldn't help but glance at Ji Yao next to him, only to find that this person was watching Ye Qiyuan's performance very seriously.
Cheng Fei, played by Ye Qiyuan, made a completely different move from Gu Zhe the moment he saw his mother. He paused for a moment, and then suddenly withdrew the restless aura emanating from his body.
If the audience could still feel his anxiety at the beginning, then now Cheng Fei has completely displayed a maturity that is extremely inconsistent with his age.With an immature face, he is like an ancient well in a deep pool, suppressing all his emotions to the utmost.
Gu Jinshang, who was stared at by Ye Qiyuan as a partner in the show, had completely faded from the initial indifference, and stared at this young master Cheng who seemed to have walked out of a book.
