Perfect Superstar

Chapter 222 Speechless

Countless memories emerged in Lu Chen's mind.

All belong to Mo Ran's memory.

This powerful actor in the dream world is deep and introverted, with a firm will and outstanding talent.

But his luck has always been bad, and he has never become a real protagonist.

Although Mo Ran was very open-minded about it, Lu Chen knew that it was one of the biggest regrets in his life.

It's an actor, who doesn't want to be the protagonist?

Lu Chen once made a vow in his heart to help Mo Ran realize his long-cherished wish in his own world.

So today's interview is undoubtedly an excellent start!

His mind was full of thoughts, but his expression was calm and composed, and his steps were steady and powerful.

Because Lu Chen knew that as an actor coming to audition, the first impression left on the director was very important.

He doesn't want to lose points in this regard.

The meeting room of Ultron Company is not big. For the needs of audition, the meeting table has been readjusted, leaving enough space for the actors who come to interview.

Sitting behind the long table are four people, three men and one woman. There are papers and pens in front of them, and a digital video camera is assumed next to them. Two young men and women stand side by side.

Lu Chen stood in front of the judges, first bowed to them, and then said, "Hello Director Yan, teachers, I'm Lu Chen, please give me your advice!"

He recognized Yan Chengyi, the director of "Love in the City" among the four judges.

After receiving the audition notice, the studio sorted out the corresponding information for Lu Chen. There was a photo of Yan Chengyi on the Internet, so he would not admit his mistake.

And when Lu Chen came in, everyone's eyes lit up.

Compared with the previous three guys who were quickly eliminated, Lu Chen's appearance is undoubtedly much stronger. He is tall and handsome enough, wearing a police uniform on his body, and has the kind of enthusiasm of a generous man.

In jargon, as far as he is concerned, he plays anti-war movies or spy movies. Wearing the uniform of the national/army is my style of an underground worker, full of sunshine and righteousness!

the most important is,

Lu Chen's performance was calm and polite. Not like a rookie at all.

Yan Chengyi was very satisfied. He came to preside over the audition work today, mainly to interview Lu Chen.

Others are just a foil, a necessary procedure.

After all, both the company and the investor have requirements.

For example, the middle-aged woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses sitting on the far right is the representative of the largest investor.

Yan Chengyi didn't have much affection for this guy. I was a little worried that she would mess with herself.

Similar things have happened several times.

But Lu Chen is so outstanding, I believe she has nothing to say!

"Hello, Lu Chen."

The director smiled kindly, nodded and asked, "Have you read the script for you?"

Lu Chen replied, "Yes, I've seen them all."

He not only read the content on the two thin A4 papers, but also kept them in his heart.

There are several scenes involved, which belong to the audition content.

"That's good..."

Yan Chengyi pointed to the young man and woman standing next to the camera, and said, "Then you have a try. The two of them play the heroine and the thief respectively."

Ultron Company obviously attached great importance to this interview, not only prepared uniforms, but also had accompanying performers.

In this way, the interviewer does not need to be air-to-air when performing, which is conducive to the performance of his own level.

Lu Chen nodded: "Okay!"

The script has long been in his mind, and he has pondered it many times, so there is naturally no problem with live performances.

The assistant sitting next to Yan Chengyi pressed the play button of a digital recorder placed on the table.

The sound of traffic in the city immediately rang out in the conference room.

The accompanying men and women stand separately, and the man is behind the woman, staring at the latter's satchel.

He slowly reached out to the bag.

The scene of this play is in the subway. The heroine is targeted by thieves, and the male supporting policeman comes to help.

As a result, the two became attached and had an emotional entanglement.

The moment the "thief" made his move, Lu Chen, who was standing a few steps away, looked terrified. There was a cold and stern light in the dark eyes, as if an eagle was staring at the fox, and the muscles all over his body suddenly tensed!

"it is good!"

Yan Chengyi couldn't help giving Lu Chen a thumbs up in his heart.

As the saying goes, a connoisseur can tell if there is something, Yan Chengyi has worked as a director for so many years, and his vision for watching people and dramas is undoubtedly deeper than his directing skills.

He was most worried about Lu Chen's acting skills, because the latter did not come from a major. Not even a real actor - Lu Chen is a rookie singer who just debuted.

Although Lu Chen has already filmed commercials and MVs, in Yan Chengyi's opinion, they are not worth mentioning at all.

Although "Urban Love" is a youth idol film, Director Yan still has high requirements for the actors' acting skills.

Just now, Lu Chen's demeanor, gaze, and subconscious movements made him realize that he might have picked up a treasure today—it feels so good!

In the next step, Lu Chen turned sideways and approached the "thief" with a stride forward. His right hand reached out like lightning, grabbed the thief's hand that had just been retracted by the latter, and firmly strangled it.

Before the other party could react, Lu Chen's left hand had already grasped his shoulder, and at the same time, he pushed back hard, and at the same time, his right leg swept the middle knee joint gently.

The "thief" was caught off guard and lost his balance in an instant. He was knocked down to the ground by Lu Chen's standard grabbing action, and his hands were firmly locked!

"what!"

The four judges exclaimed in unison.

Because the script did not require the actors to do this at all, after being caught, the "thief" would be twisted and pinned down on the ground very cooperatively, where he was completely involuntary like now, controlled by Lu Chen like a puppet.

"Thief" students will not really get hurt, right?

In fact, their worries were superfluous. Lu Chen controlled the force very well. Although the accompanying performer was restrained, he was not hurt at all. He just screamed instinctively.

Lu Chen ignored the lunch box recipient, grabbed the stolen wallet from the other party, and handed it to the hostess while squatting.

He smiled and said, "Miss, is this your wallet?"

The heroine was completely stunned, not knowing how to deal with it, and it took a while to wake up like a dream.

She blushed and took the wallet from Lu Chen, and said softly, "Thank you."

Lu Chen didn't continue to act, but helped the struggling "thief" up, helped him pat the dust on his body a few times, and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, you didn't get hurt, did you?"

The person who received the lunch box shook his head, with a look of admiration on his face: "You are amazing!"

Lu Chen smiled and turned to face the judges.

Yan Chengyi was the first to raise his hand, and clapped his palms hard.

Not only did Lu Chen meet his requirements for the role of Chen Yaoyang, but he was also exceptionally good!

Lu Chen's skill is not a stunt, but a real kung fu.

Not to mention young and handsome, with first-class acting skills and martial arts skills, he is simply a perfect idol star!

Yan Chengyi decided that Lu Chen was Chen Yaoyang.

The director even became excited. According to Lu Chen's standard, the drama related to him can be extended for several episodes.

Others followed suit.

This has never happened in previous interviews.

Yan Chengyi put down his hands and said with a smile: "Very good, I think..."

"I think..."

Yan Chengyi never expected that when he just opened his mouth to express his approval for Lu Chen, the investor representative sitting on the far right interrupted: "You are not very suitable for the role of Chen Yaoyang!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was stunned.

Including Lu Chen.

Everyone looked at the middle-aged woman with disbelief.

The latter reached out to support his gold-rimmed glasses, smiled at Lu Chen, and said, "Lu Chen, your appearance and acting skills are very good, and I like it too, but you are too tall to match the heroine. and..."

After a pause, she continued: "You put too much pressure on the male lead, which is not conducive to the overall style of our drama, so it's really a pity."

It turned out to be rejected, and this is the reason...

Lu Chen was speechless.

This person is not denying his strength, but thinks that his strength is too strong, so he is taking the lead!

Such a strong reason left him speechless.

And Yan Chengyi's face turned blue.

What nonsense reason, he chose Lu Chen, this is what he wanted!

The ratings of the first season of "Urban Love" were mediocre. Although the second season was renewed and continued filming, if you want to increase the ratings, you must have bright spots or even hits.

The role of Chen Yaoyang is the breakthrough point, and it needs an actor like Lu Chen to shine.

Moreover, Lu Chen's reputation is not small, and he has nearly ten million followers on the Inspur blog.

This is the guarantee of ratings!

The representative of the investor actually thought that Lu Chen was outplaying the host.

It's just brain flooding!

If this is a movie, it would be problematic if the supporting characters shine brighter than the main characters, but as a fast-paced weekend drama, a good supporting role can undoubtedly bring freshness to the audience, and it is a good thing to have controversies and conflicts.

He said decisively: "Manager Gong, I don't think these are problems."

The middle-aged woman still smiled: "Director Yan, let's let it go for a while and let the people behind it try it out. If there is no more suitable one, then consider this Mr. Lu Chen, okay?"

Yan Chengyi finally understood, what bullshit pressure is too much, it is obvious that the investor has already been selected.

100% waiting for the audition in the back!

What's too much is that the other party didn't discuss it with him beforehand, and put him together at a critical moment.

As for the reason, it is very complicated.

But Tiandadida invested the most, annoyed investors, and it was easy to replace the director. The first season of "Urban Love" has already been filmed, and Yan Chengyi's importance to this TV series has not reached an indispensable level.

Unless the ratings of the first season are so high that people can't ignore his role.

Yan Chengyi couldn't help feeling disheartened, and said expressionlessly: "Whatever."

It was the biggest protest he could make.
