Chapter 45 Chapter 45 Pei Simo (gritting teeth version): ...
"Sorry, I'm late. Can I still audition?"
[Oh my god, this guy is so handsome! His bones are so regular! ]
[Oh my god, don’t you recognize this internet celebrity? He has millions of fans on Tik Tok. ]
[I was wondering why he looked so familiar. He was popular before, and he is actually a college student? ]
[From the acting department? I've never heard of that.]
"I am Lin Shuyu, from the 23rd class of the Broadcasting Department."
Wen Yunzhi looked at the boy in front of him. He was wearing a simple white shirt and black trousers, but his shoulders were broad and his body was long. His eyebrows were deep, his nose was high, and his thick eyebrows and big eyes looked very majestic, which was more suitable for ancient costumes.
Although the boys in the acting department all look okay, you can feel that this boy is different as soon as he appears.
Wen Yunzhi pointed at the screen.
"The screen shows the audition script. Once you are familiar with it, you can go on stage for the audition."
Lin Shuyu didn't move, looking at Wen Yun and knowing: "I'm already familiar with it."
Wen Yunzhi didn't say anything, but looked at him puzzledly.
Lin Shuyu explained: "My roommate sent me some pictures when I first arrived. I had already watched most of the movie by the time I arrived. I am a fan of the original novel and I can remember all the lines."
Wen Yunzhi was really a little surprised.
Although the original novel of this novel is very popular, it is also a female-oriented novel. The male protagonist in it is just a background character, and he was created because of the needs of the female protagonist. Therefore, many boys cannot accept it, and many people even go online to slander it.
Wen Yunzhi made a gesture of invitation, "Then you start."
After He Nian finished saying three, two, and one, Lin Xuyu's expression immediately changed.
It's not the college student who seemed naive just now, but the young man who was massacred in the play.
A tear welled up in the corner of his eye, but his gaze became more and more determined.
As he read out his lines, everyone's heart was moved.
Lin Shuyu seemed to have some basic skills. He even managed not to be disturbed by the camera. He did not lose focus even when the live camera kept moving in front of him.
[Damn, this handsome guy has pretty good basic skills. I actually watched it! I can watch this clip. ]
[Yes, I almost fell asleep just now, this guy is also handsome. ]
[Lin Shuyu, right? Follow him on Weibo first, then I’ll be his long-time fan. ]
[Wow, wow, wow! The two chefs are so happy! My favorite internet celebrity is about to be seen! It’s worth it! 】
[And his looks match Yun Zhiye's, which is quite nice. ]
Pei Simo originally didn't care much about the casting.
With He Nian and Wen Yunzhi there, he could just take a look around.
But Wen Yunzhi beside him, who was originally sighing with his brows lowered, now sat up straight and stared closely at the students auditioning on the stage.
Pei Simo could sense Wen Yunzhi's emotional changes.
He also raised his head, first glanced at Wen Yunzhi who was watching with great interest, and then followed her gaze to look at Lin Shuyu in the middle of the stage.
Pei Simo looked at him with his chin in his hand, seeming to be lost in thought.
【President Pei finally raised his head.】
[Who knows, he saw Yun Zhi first! ]
[I understand, sister! This rice is so delicious, eat it! ]
[Luckily I didn’t go out today and waited for the live broadcast, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to eat such a fresh meal. ]
This audition clip is not too long.
However, Lin Shuyu did not stop at the audition segment, but continued his performance, also showing the more highlight shots in the second half.
The last shot of Lin Shuyu is him kneeling on the ground, watching the dead city fall into despair.
There happened to be a tear in the corner of his eye, making him look stubborn and broken.
Instantly, the theater burst into applause.
It seems that Lin Shuyu has good social connections, and many people applauded and cheered for him.
Wen Yunzhi also raised his hands and clapped, his face full of admiration.
New Year's greetings are even more exciting.
Only Pei Simo leaned back in his chair very calmly, but his rolling Adam's apple and his hands that seemed to be reluctant to let go revealed that his master was not as calm as he seemed.
Wen Yunzhi originally felt that the name Lin Shuyu was so familiar.
She repeated the name several times in her mind before she finally remembered it.
This person also appears later in the book.
He is also the male lead in a drama that the original owner has filmed.
But now the time of appearance seems to be advanced.
Wen Yunzhi picked up the phone and looked at Lin Xuyu, carefully looking him up and down. After a while, he said, "Lin Xuyu, are you sure you saw this clip in the car?"
Lin Shuyu didn't seem to expect Wen Yunzhi to ask this. He was obviously stunned and didn't respond.
【What does Yun Zhi mean by this?】
【Have you prepared in advance? 】
[So he lied? This really ruins the first impression. ]
[Not really. It's normal to leave a good impression on others. Who hasn't lied during an interview? ]
[I think lying is normal, but it is very embarrassing to be caught.]
[It was mainly because it was the first time we met and it would be too embarrassing to be discovered.]
Wen Yunzhi pointed at the camera and said, "Lin Shuyu, I suggest you think it over before answering. This is a live broadcast."
She could tell that based on Lin Shuyu's proficiency, this definitely wasn't his first time practicing.
Moreover, these lines are relatively ancient in style and rhyme, and it is actually very difficult to memorize them in a short period of time. However, the lines just recited by Lin Shuyu were almost flawless and the emotions were very well-placed.
Lin Shuyu bit his lip, feeling a little knotted inside.
Half a minute later, he picked up the phone.
"It's true that this is not the first time I've seen this scene. There was a rumor in the industry that "Legend of Qingle" was recruiting male leads, so I contacted the casting director and got the audition script. I carefully prepared several scenes, including the massacre scene."
"And I'm also a fan of the original novel, and I know the lines by heart. I lied because... everyone was seeing this for the first time, and I was afraid that it would be unfair if I said it out loud, and I'd lose this audition opportunity."
After listening to Lin Shuyu's words, Wen Yunzhi did not blame him too much, but just closed the script.
"You acted well. Although you can tell you're a newcomer, you don't seem to be stage-shy."
He Nian also quite likes Lin Shuyu's acting skills and appearance.
Even if he doesn't play the male lead, he can still be invited to play roles in other dramas.
He Nian glanced at Wen Yunzhi, and when he saw her nod, he said, "We will continue to contact you for the next round of auditions."
Lin Shuyu was slightly startled, and his heart was beating violently with joy.
He held the phone tightly and bowed deeply, "Thank you for giving me this opportunity."
Wen Yunzhi smiled and said, "You fought for this opportunity."
[Lin Shuyu is really good! He is actually quite suitable for the role of the male lead. ]
[I think so too, but her acting skills are still immature. ]
[I feel much better than some male actors. (Is this something I can say?)]
[At least the appearance is worthy of the audience, so they don’t have to look at an ugly doll. ]
Since Lin Shuyu, there have been no students auditioning for the male lead role.
After all, there is an example here, and everyone has evaluated their own abilities, so few people are willing to audition for the male lead role.
The remaining two characters were unexpectedly popular.
It’s just that the personalities of the remaining two characters didn’t need to have a sense of immaturity, so Wen Yunzhi wasn’t finalized in the end.
After leaving school, He Nian immediately contacted the casting director and recommended Lin Shuyu to continue auditioning.
Wen Yunzhi noticed that Pei Simo hadn't said much since he entered school, so he raised his hand and poked him, saying, "Why have you been silent all this time? What do you think of Lin Shuyu?"
Pei Simo glanced at Wen Yunzhi and spoke lightly.
"As long as you like it."
