The sky in Kyoto in May is clear, with a few clouds floating in the distance. Compared with the bustling crowds on the streets, it seems much more leisurely.
The fence outside the Kyoto Film and Television Base is covered with large areas of roses, competing with each other in beauty, which is very beautiful.
Jiang Wan got out of the nanny car and stretched lazily without any image.
She has been resting for the past few days and her bones are so soft that it’s finally time to start working.
Today is the audition day for Xia Yu, the second female lead in "Nine Skies Immortal Journey". There are also some other minor roles auditioning today. She came quite early and saw that the line was already very long.
The roles of the male and female protagonists have been decided long ago. Usually, for such large-scale productions, the male and female protagonists are selected very early, and there is strict control over their image, acting skills, character and reputation.
After all, if something happens to the male and female protagonists, the show will be over.
Su Bai didn't come in, she had other things to do, only Xiaoyu stayed with her.
Xia Yu has a very important role, second only to the female lead. The female stars who came to audition are all relatively capable, and even some who can take on the role of the female lead in other dramas came.
Many of them are quite famous celebrities. Compared to them, Jiang Wan is just a piece of trash.
Jiang Wan chose a corner to sit in, looking very low-key.
There were actually only half actors auditioning, and the other half were assistants.
People like Jiang Wan who are quite conventional only have an assistant by their side, while some artists who may not be doing well come here on their own.
The most eye-catching one is the one sitting in the center, surrounded by stars.
He has several assistants, and they are always around him.
One fetched water, one massaged shoulders, one fanned, and one massaged legs.
That posture is comparable to that of a favorite concubine in the harem.
Jiang Wan was amazed. She looked like she was here for an audition, not a vacation.
There were two artists next to her who were talking to her. She half-closed her eyes and responded incoherently.
The two artists had fawning smiles on their faces. Jiang Wan turned her eyes away. In the circle, it is normal to flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. If you are popular, people will come to support you. If you are not popular, naturally no one will care about you.
Jiang Wan didn't look at them again, but closed her eyes and continued to think about the scenes she was going to audition for.
This drama tells the story of the love, hate and vengeance between the male protagonist Xuanyuan Wuyang and the female protagonist Song Yunmiao.
Xuanyuan Wuyang is the eldest disciple of Jiuxiao Sect, which takes protecting the common people as its mission, and the heroine is the saint of the demon world. The contradiction and conflict between the two people's identities are particularly eye-catching, and the love-hate entanglement between them is even more unrestrained.
Xia Yu is not a villain. Her character is very three-dimensional. She is the second senior sister of Jiuxiao Sect. She is tough, responsible, has a broad mind, and is emotionally restrained.
For this kind of character, if he is too reserved, he will be dull, but if he is too extroverted, it will not fit his character.
The auditionees went in one by one and came out one by one.
Most of them don't look very good.
There was a sudden increase in tension in the air.
"Shixue, get ready."
The woman, who was adored by the stars, responded lazily.
It turned out that the star surrounded by several assistants was Shi Xue.
A popular traffic star and a professional in idol dramas.
It is rumored online that she is very good at acting like a big shot.
Jiang Wan watched her stand up gracefully, and ignored the two young artists who were flattering her, and just walked away with her waist swaying.
The two young artists looked unhappy. It was really unpleasant to be ignored.
Who can blame him for having such a big wrist?
Shi Xue's audition took particularly long. She waited for a long time before someone came out and called her name.
"The next one is Jiang Wan."
Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows, not expecting that she would be standing behind her. She stood up calmly, with a faint smile on her face, and walked over.
Not long after, Shi Xue leisurely opened the door. When she saw Jiang Wan standing at the door, she was stunned for a moment, with a hint of fear in her eyes.
He looked her up and down for a few times, a trace of contempt flashed across his face, he flicked his hair, and left.
Three question marks popped up in Jiang Wan’s head. This woman must be crazy.
Without paying any more attention to her, Jiang Wan walked in and introduced herself gracefully.
Director Shen sat at the table, looking at the girl in front of him. He had heard about the rumors on the Internet.
He was skeptical in himself and felt that Jiang Wan was suspected of hype.
But when he stood there, he suddenly felt his eyes brighten. This appearance was very suitable for Xia Yu, except that it was a little too gorgeous.
I’m afraid of outshining the heroine.
The assistant director spoke:
"Act Three, give it a try."
Jiang Wan nodded and got into the role in a second, or rather, she had not been out of the role for the past few days and had always lived her life as Xia Yu.
She also found the original novel and read it, which gave her a deeper understanding of the character Xia Yu.
Through a few designed actions and a few clear and refreshing lines, the image of Xia Yu is expressed vividly.
The assistant director frowned.
It's not that he is dissatisfied, but he is very satisfied with Jiang Wan's performance. This role is very suitable for her.
But Shi Xue joined the crew with money, and her audition was just a formality. There was pressure from above, and it was a bit painful to miss such a good seedling.
Just as I was about to ask her to go back, Director Shen spoke:
"Are you ready for the fifth act?
Jiang Wan nodded, her voice clear and crisp: "I've seen them all."
Director Shen: “Try it.”
Jiang Wan recalled the plot and opened her eyes, her sharp eyes were extremely cold.
In her previous life, Jiang Wan had tried many roles. As long as there was an opportunity, she would try any role.
So she knows best how to catch people's attention and get the role in just a few minutes of the audition.
There was a hint of satisfaction in Director Shen's eyes, and he spoke again:
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
