The rise of the actor in the entertainment industry

Chapter 3 Auditions



Chapter 3 Auditions

Early the next morning, when Su Mu was fast asleep, the phone on the bedside table suddenly rang loudly, but the person on the bed ignored him and continued to sleep.The phone kept vibrating, over and over again, as if to compete with Su Mu on who had better patience.

Finally, Su Mu, who was lying on the bed and pretending to be asleep, ran out of patience, turned over and sat up, grabbed the mobile phone on the bedside table and rudely connected it, and was about to shout impatiently back, "I have no announcements or scenes to shoot this morning, so don't Disturb my sleep!", a sharp female voice came from the other side of the microphone faster than Su Mu.

"Ivan, you pretended to be asleep and didn't answer my call. Manager Luo called this morning. He will take you to the set of "Xian Xia" for a shot in the morning, and shoot "Future Interstellar" in the afternoon. After an hour, manager Luo I will pick you up downstairs, it's been 10 minutes now, you can figure out the time yourself."

Listening to Xiaoyu's high-decibel high-pitched voice coming from the other side of the phone, it sounded like a magic sound, and all drowsy bugs were driven away.Su Mu raked his hair irritably, and growled impatiently at the phone: "Why did you wake me up so early for something that will happen in an hour?"

"If I don't wake you up in advance, I'm afraid you'll be obedient and disobedient when the time comes. Go back to sleep and everyone can go to lunch when you wake up." A cold and deep male voice came from the opposite side of the phone.

"Luo Da? Tsk!" Hearing that Luo Xiang, who should not have appeared on Xiaoyu's phone, answered the phone, Su Mu suddenly felt even more irritable.Last night, Bai Yilin tormented him until very late, and he was woken up by the phone not long after falling asleep. Su Mu felt that he wanted to kill someone now, but Luo Xiang came to pick him up in person. Apart from obediently obeying others, Su Mu There is no other way.

The iron rule in the entertainment circle is, don't offend Manager Luo if you offend anyone, otherwise you can fully experience what it means to "live rather than die" in your later life.

Luo Xiang is the gold medal manager of Huansheng Entertainment, and he only managed two artists, Xie Chen and Ye Mo.Xie Chen still enjoys a high reputation in the international film industry and has won the title of Best Actor at the Golden Horse Awards twice; Ye Mo is the king of music today.It can be seen that the title of Luo Xiang Gold Broker has gold content.

As a manager, Luo Xiang's own ability is very good, and his vision for selecting artists is also very vicious, but what is directly proportional to this is his temper.The so-called stronger ability and stronger temper refers to people like Luo Xiang.The task or order Luo Xiang arranged for the artist, the artist has no choice but to desperately complete, otherwise you will wait for countless times to wear the small shoes arranged by the big manager Luo until you learn your lesson.

Su Mu, who struggled to get up, looked around the room, and found that Bai Yilin had already gone to the company, so he couldn't help but click his tongue: Who are you, you are so energetic.

When she received a call from Luo Xiang again, Su Mu had already packed everything and was sitting leisurely on the sofa watching the script to be filmed today.Su Mu, who rushed downstairs, just got into the nanny's car, and the car drove towards the set at high speed.

"Xiaoyu, you are more passionate about driving with uncle, how much will your salary be?" Su Mu asked the energetic assistant Xiaoyu in the driver's seat in front of him lazily leaning on the back seat.

"If you have passion, your salary won't increase much, but if you don't have passion, your salary will be deducted for sure." Luo Xiang, who was sitting next to Su Mu, said in a cold tone.

"Tsk tsk tsk, uncle still likes to squeeze employees so much"

"I prefer to squeeze oily ones. There is an audition for "Xianxia" in the morning. You can try the role of Ziyue. After filming "Interstellar" in the afternoon, there will be a magazine photoshoot in the evening. I didn't think there was any need to participate. I plan to Turn it down, but now I think it would be good to give you more chances to leave the country, so Xiaoyu, you can send Su Mu there to take a few photos at night." Luo Xiang told Xiaoyu who was driving in front with a blank expression. .

Sitting in the driver's seat, Xiaoyu wanted to cry, but wanted to roar loudly, "What does this have to do with me? What does this have to do with me? It is Ivan who offends you. Why does my workload increase? What?" But the facts are cruel, no matter how much courage Xiao Yu lends to Xiao Yu, he will not dare to yell at Luo Xiang, even if he knows that the boss's quarrel must be the most innocent and most powerless soldier like himself, he can only To be able to swallow grievances with tears, you have to put on a smile and say "yes".

Su Mu, who was sitting up straight, chuckled. "Tsk, uncle really loves to hold grudges so much. Does it mean that the older you get, the more awkward your personality will be?"

"Looking at how angry you are, it looks like Bai Yilin must have had a good meal last night." Luo Xiang glanced at Su Mu, unmoved.

"..."

"Damn!" The corner of Su Mu's mouth twitched, trying to hold back the swearing, but finally he couldn't hold it back and slammed it out.

"Now that Bai Yilin is here, I think you have no chance to rely on others." Luo Xiang responded very calmly.

"..." Su Mu was choked speechless.

Xiaoyu glanced at Su Mu sympathetically, and slandered, "Jiang is really old and hot." At the same time, he secretly felt that besides Bai Yilin, Luo Xiang was the only one who could kick Su Mu to the iron plate.Sitting silently, in order to avoid being swept by the tail of the typhoon again, Xiaoyu pulled out all the energy and drove the car to the audition field.

Arriving at the set and entering the audition hall, Su Mu saw that many stars who came to audition had already arrived. Seeing Su Mu and his party, those who knew him nodded as a greeting, while those who did not know him stood aside and secretly looked at Su Mu, wanting to see See what the real Ivan, who has been red and purple in recent years, looks like.

Su Mu was so used to this phenomenon that he turned a blind eye to it. After receiving his number, he sat obediently and waited to be called for an audition.The person whose name is clicked will enter a small room next to it.The number of people in the hall was slowly decreasing. Some people went in with their heads downcast and some people came out with happy faces.

When it was Su Mu's turn to audition, Luo Xiang accompanied Su Mu into the small room, which had a door.Su Mu saw producers, directors, and screenwriters sitting in a small room. A monitor was placed opposite them, and a little girl who looked like an assistant was taking notes next to them.Seeing Su Mu come in, the director nodded, and told him to act in a segment where Ziyue saw Lou Xuan and Xuanqing hugging each other in the mausoleum and was alone sad. 5 minutes prep time.

This is a very classic scene in the game "Xianxia". Ziyue sees her favorite junior sister hugging her best friend Lou Xuan because of sadness, silently blessing them while suppressing her own sadness.

Five minutes later, Su Mu walked into the door in the small room, faced the camera, closed his eyes to brew his emotions, then slowly opened his eyes, and looked in front of the void, as if that was where the two embraced.There was no change in the expression on Su Mu's face, but his eyes were extremely sad. He stretched out a hand as if he wanted to comfort the little junior sister, but slowly put it down again.The other hand was tightly clenched into a fist, and the whole person gave off a strong and suppressed sadness.

This kind of sadness lasted for a full 30 seconds, and the people watching the TV screen were tightly shrouded in this sad atmosphere, as if there were really two people where Su Mu's eyes fell.

Afterwards, Ziyue, played by Su Mu, slowly turned her head away, and looked to her side slightly, as if it was a gentleman's performance of not seeing injustice, but it had to make people feel a kind of heartache that was actually suppressing herself. Have the heart to face the feeling of this situation again.This last action is not in the game. In this situation where there is no music, no background, and no supporting characters, this action added by Su Mu himself makes the performance more imaginable.

This performance stunned the judges present.He obviously didn't use any facial expressions, just relying on his eyes, but it was more effective than using any expressions.The sadness revealed in the clear eyes makes one wish to offer everything just to heal his sadness.

After the audition, the director, producer, and screenwriter exchanged glances with each other, and everyone could see the amazement in each other's eyes.When Su Mu came out of the room, the director patted Su Mu on the shoulder excitedly, and sighed, "You are really talented in acting. You can achieve such a great achievement in such a short time since your debut. Sure enough, you can't get it just by luck." Yes, I have seen your strength today. You are very suitable for the role of Ziyue, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future."

Su Mu thanked the director with a humble face. Luo Xiang also came over at this time, nodded to the director, and said that he would find time to continue talking about follow-up matters. This time, the audition will be here first. There are arrangements, so I won't bother, and then left the set with Su Mu.

As soon as he stepped out of the audition hall, the smiling expression on Su Mu's face immediately collapsed, and he complained as he walked forward, "Everyone who mentions my fame will exaggerate my luck and question my acting skills. Luck is indispensable." , acting is also very important, always questioning me will make me very sad."

"Your acting skills are indeed superb, compared to those of your age. Presumably, apart from that person back then, there are not many people who have your strength at such a young age." Luo Xiang said lightly.

"Oh? Uncle, who are you referring to?" Su Mu looked curious.

"A person you don't know." Looking up at Su Mu, Luo Xiang didn't want to continue this topic, and replied in a cold tone.

"Tsk, the face changes so quickly." Su Mu shrugged boringly.The two walked side by side toward the parking lot.
