Lin Yipeng made the contact very quickly. Xiao He went to the audition in the morning and returned to the film set in the afternoon to shoot the last scene.
Since the production crew was already in the filming stage, Xiao He went directly to the film and television base to audition at the filming location.
This area is decorated in the style of that era, with a unique blend of Chinese and Western characteristics. It has been used by many film crews as a filming location for period dramas and spy dramas. According to Xiao He's understanding, this location has recently been booked by the wealthy crew of "Shining Stars".
And this "Shining Stars" is the drama series that Xiao He is currently auditioning for.
This story takes place in a time of war and chaos, when the puppet regime, with the support of the enemy, ruled and manipulated the people in the occupied territories. In this past filled with humiliation and suffering, there was still a group of people who moved forward in the darkness, fighting for their ideals and beliefs, and even sacrificing their lives.
They are like shining stars, their brilliance shining even in the darkness, and they are great heroes that future generations should remember.
Xiao He is currently auditioning for the villain Meng Zetian, who is naturally the one who acts as an accomplice to evil. As the captain of the special agent team, he is responsible for capturing the protagonist and other undercover intelligence agents. His role mainly revolves around his mutual probing, suspicion and scheming with the protagonist and the others.
Overall, it's a fairly important role.
When Xiao He arrived at the audition location, he discovered that there were an unusually large number of people auditioning that day.
The production team didn't find them a separate place, but instead set the audition location directly in this stage theater. The interior decoration and layout were almost a one-to-one replica of the style of that era, looking antique and giving people a sense of time travel.
There were many people standing in the corridor at this moment, mostly in their twenties or thirties, and most of them were dressed quite formally. It was clear that they took this audition very seriously. Xiao He even saw someone wearing a military uniform to enhance their image.
However, looking around, Xiao He didn't see anyone familiar. Almost everyone was a stranger. It seemed that most of the people auditioning were minor celebrities, either third or fourth tier.
This actually made Xiao He relax a bit.
He may not be as famous as those big names, but he is confident in his performance on stage, and at least he can "play himself".
It doesn't seem like a big problem... right?
Suddenly, a commotion arose from the other side of the corridor. Xiao He saw a young man wearing sunglasses arrive with two other people.
When someone sat down in the empty chair, the previously noisy corridor fell silent for a moment.
"Holy crap, why is he here too?"
Someone lowered their voice and complained quietly.
Xiao He narrowed his eyes and secretly sized up the other person.
Oops... Damn it, they're not among the people he's recently met.
Xiao He could only quickly prick up his ears, trying to find out the guy's name from the people around him—
"Why would Chen Yulin come here? Doesn't he have enough resources? Why is he trying to steal roles from us?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. Don't offend these guys instead of getting the audition."
"We're doomed. With him here, do we even have a chance?"
"It's okay. According to inside information, the director will only choose the best actor this time. I think we can still try harder and salvage the situation."
—So your name is Chen Yulin…
Xiao He understood and quickly took out his phone to search for information.
Chen Yulin is also an artist under Haohan Entertainment. He is less famous than Ran Yunrui and does not yet have a famous work. However, he has become a familiar face in several popular TV dramas and has one or two roles that people can recognize. He is currently in a rising phase with the potential to become a breakout star.
Many people thought he would go on to star in a drama as the male lead, but unexpectedly, he turned around and came here again, auditioning for the role of the fourth male lead.
On the surface, it seems like things are going backwards.
