Chapter 42 The wait is finally here!
Zhang Yuanjun got up early in the morning and packed his luggage. The flight was at ten o'clock.
The dormitory is usually very lively, but I stayed there alone for 26 days, not to mention, it is strangely deserted.
Zhang Yuanjun had nothing to pack, so he just dragged a suitcase and left.
"Mom, I'm going out now." He called home before leaving. "Well, I've brought all my things. Don't worry, I won't be delayed. I'll eat at home for lunch. You don't need to come to pick me up. I'll take a taxi back. Okay, okay, hang up."
”
After closing the door, Zhang Yuanjun dragged his suitcase and walked towards the school gate. Along the way, he could meet some teachers and students who stayed in the school.
"Let's go."
"Hey, go home."
"When will you come back?"
"I'll be back as soon as school starts." Zhang Yuanjun said this without fear of others knowing that he was in his junior year and still hadn't found a job.
After getting in a car at the school gate, just after passing Wanghe Park and before getting on the airport expressway, Zhang Yuanjun received a call:
"Ah? Today? When? In the afternoon? Where? Zuojiazhuang. Okay, okay, I'll be there on time in the afternoon." After hanging up the phone, "Master, go back to the film school."
The driver asked a lot: "What happened? Are you leaving?"
"I received an audition notice, and I will leave two days after the audition." After 51 days of long waiting, I finally got a response.
The casting staff of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" just called and invited me to participate in Yang Guo's audition to be held this afternoon.
The phone also explained the reason for calling him so late: "The resume screening workload is relatively heavy, and today is Yang Guo's third batch of auditions. In addition to new actors, the popular Huang Xiaoming, Nie Yuan and others will also be present."
Zhang Yuanjun is fine. He has been waiting for so long, isn’t he just waiting for an audition opportunity?
"Not bad, young man." The driver praised, "What show are you trying?"
"'The Legend of the Condor Heroes', do you know?" Zhang Yuanjun said.
"I know!" The driver often works in the academy, and he knows the drama from the teachers and students who come and go. "Why, the role hasn't been decided yet? I invited the students from your school last month and heard them talking about it.
Talking about this drama, it’s been more than a month and you’re still choosing actors?”
"Yes, let's make a choice. I guess I have to choose a month." Zhang Yuanjun was in a good mood and was willing to talk to the driver.
"Then what role are you interviewing for this afternoon?"
"Yang Guo!" Zhang Yuanjun exclaimed, as if this role was already in his possession.
The driver looked at Zhang Yuanjun through the rearview mirror: "Yes, the young man is handsome, and he will definitely look good in his clothes."
Zhang Yuanjun smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you are good-looking, everyone who goes for the interview is good-looking."
"I know, then Huang Xiaoming also went for the interview, I heard it."
"That is to say, Huang Xiaoming is so popular now and good-looking, how can I compete with him?"
"You can't say that. Huang Xiaoming is beautiful, and you are good-looking too." Xiao Ming has the kind of appearance that is particularly in line with the aesthetics of elders. He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and has a handsome face. "I guess you can stand up to me."
After saying this, the car stopped just in front of the school.
"Okay!" Zhang Yuanjun got off the car, "I'd like to lend you a kind word. This is the fare, no need to look for it. You go slowly."
"Okay!" The driver left happily. He earned more than ten yuan by saying a few nice words. This student boy really doesn't regard money as money.
After calling back and forth, Zhang Yuanjun came back again dragging the box.
"Huh? Why are you back again?"
Zhang Yuanjun was so embarrassed that he didn’t know how to answer.
"I left something in the dormitory and forgot to pick it up, haha."
Zhang Yuanjun returned to the deserted dormitory dejectedly, called home and told his mother that he would not be able to come back today, and that he had an audition at the last minute and would come back after the audition.
The mother also understood and asked him to prepare well: "My son has such good conditions, he will definitely be selected."
In order to cope with this unexpected audition, Zhang Yuanjun took a good bath.
I practiced the presentation clip I had prepared a long time ago in front of the mirror several times. I also took out the biography and psychological analysis I had made for Yang Guo and read it over and over again.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Yuanjun arrived at Zuojiazhuang, Zhang Jizhong's audition base camp.
There are twenty-four or five people in this batch of auditions for Yang Guo, including popular candidates such as Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan.
More than twenty people were arranged to wait in a conference room. Even famous actors like Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan were no exception, and they were all crowded in the same room.
The venue was not noisy, but there was a constant buzz of conversation and voices reciting audition scripts in low voices.
Zhang Yuanjun also met Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan for the first time, and they were really not very good.
Both of their online information said they were 179cm. When Zhang Yuanjun took a look today, he found that they were indeed about the same height, but they were 175cm taller.
If not counting shoes, both of them should be around 172cm.
In terms of appearance, both of them are quite handsome, but Zhang Yuanjun prefers Huang Xiaoming’s appearance.
In this round of auditions, some of the actors are familiar and some are unfamiliar.
Zhang Yuanjun scanned around and then lowered his head to look at his preparation materials.
The audition will begin soon. The organizer explained: "Today's audition is for producer Zhang Jizhong, chief director Yu Min and artistic director Ma Zhongjun. The audition will be two clips, one monologue and one duet." That's all I can say, "No.
One, Xiao Ming, you go first."
"Okay." Huang Xiaoming was obviously familiar with the scene, chatting and laughing with the staff.
Half an hour after Huang Xiaoming left, Nie Yuan was also called out.
After 35 minutes, it seemed that Nie Yuan's audition was over, and the third "Yang Guo" was called in.
At this moment, Zhang Yuanjun received a text message from Liu Yifei:
"Were you at Yang Guo's audition in Zuojiazhuang?"
"Yes."
"Don't worry about the monologue. Choose one of three dialogue scenes: Yang Long's meeting at the bottom of the heartless valley, Yang Guo's meeting at Fengling Ferry, Yang Guo's broken arm and meeting Guo Fu again. There will be an actress who will play opposite you."
"How do you know the title? Were you there too?" Zhang Yuanjun replied.
"I am also auditioning today, and your photo is posted on the audition blackboard. The actors opposite Huang Xiaoming and Nie Yuan are me." Liu Yifei had already got in the car and was about to leave Zuojiazhuang.
"Why don't you play with me?"
"You are only in the first round, so you are not qualified to play with me. Also, the actress who plays with you on the scene may or may not be professional. You have to be prepared for her to know nothing." Liu Yifei finished posting proudly.
This message.
In the car, Liu Xiaoli said: "Sissi, stop looking at your phone. We are going back."
"Oh." Liu Yifei closed her mobile phone.
Zhang Yuanjun really didn't expect Liu Yifei to miss the question, so he replied to her: "Thank you, I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
Liu Yifei did not reply.
The auditions went very slowly, with some actors taking as short as twenty-four or five minutes, and several as long as more than forty minutes.
Chapter completed!
