Chapter 62 Three Auditions
Although they hesitated, everyone still stepped forward one by one according to their numbers and stood beside Elena, waiting to be examined by the director, screenwriter, casting director, and the leading actors. Many male actors also know that those who are not as tall as Elena will definitely be eliminated.
In the first round, many people were eliminated, including Solpo, who disliked Lu Yuqi.
"I'm tall enough, why were I eliminated?" Sorbo was not satisfied with the result, especially when he saw that Lu Yuqi was able to continue to audition.
"I think you should know that we are auditioning male elves, not orcs. If there is a suitable role for orcs, I welcome you to come again." Director Kipling Carter said bluntly.
When the director Kipling Carter said this, the people who had not yet dispersed around burst into laughter.
"Sorbo, please go home."
"Sorbo, I'm so ashamed for you."
It seems that Solpo is not very popular. People around him are laughing at him, and even Elena is covering her mouth and laughing.
Seeing this scene, Solpo got angry. His idol was Elena, and this audition was the closest he had ever been to his idol, but everyone was ridiculing him!
"Why is this Oriental guy still allowed to continue auditioning! How am I not as good as him? What a weakling!" Thorpo was furious and rushed towards Lu Yuqi with his fist raised.
Lu Yuqi is not afraid of fighting. He easily took Thorbo's punch and pushed Thorbo back with a single move. Thorpo still didn't give up and continued to rush forward. Lu Yuqi didn't want to hurt anyone. After all, this was abroad, the skin color was different, and nothing could be said!
Before the people around could react, Lu Yuqi knocked Sorbo to the ground with one move.
"Wow!"
“Chinese Kung Fu!”
“He’s awesome!”
"Oh, he moves so gracefully!"
"I think I need everyone to help me subdue Thorpo. I don't want to hurt him." Lu Yuqi said politely. If it happens again, he will have to use force.
Once, twice, but never three times! But there won't be a next time.
The director reacted and called the security guard to take Sorbo away.
"Honey, can I know your name?"
“I’m Lu Yuqi from China.”
"Oh! I see you have great Chinese Kung Fu~"
"Honey, let me see you standing next to Elena."
Following the director's request, Lu Yuqi took off his shoes and walked to Elena again. Elena greeted him in a friendly manner: "hi~", which was completely different from her expressionless face just now.
"Hello."
Looking at the two people standing together, the crew began a discussion.
"He's not particularly tall!"
"But you can also see that he's taller than Elena too!"
"And he's very handsome!"
"I don't think men can be described as beautiful."
"He's very skilled, and his movements just now were very light, which is what an elf should have. Dark elves are melee fighters, and their movements should be graceful! Not brutal! The bear-like move just now wouldn't do!" The screenwriter is very optimistic about Lu Yuqi.
"Since everyone disagrees, let's continue. After all, there is already a candidate, right?"
In the second round of the audition, each of the remaining contestants will perform a set of movements while tied with a wire. The movements must be graceful and agile, and they must jump back and forth on wooden stakes of varying heights while wearing the wire.
Looking at the wooden stakes of different heights, Lu Yuqi thought: Foreigners are playing with these things in a very fancy way. Isn't this the plum blossom stake of our ancestors?
These are simply too small a case for Lu Yuqi. Lu Yuqi completed the entire second round with amazing grace.
"I said he is the most suitable candidate!"
“He’s exactly my idea of Nancy!”
“His movements are so graceful!”
The second round of auditions eliminated even more people.
Most of the remaining people present had slender bodies, and most of them had dancing skills.
The third round of auditions requires candidates to fight with the action teacher and wear elf costumes.
The elf's clothing is just a piece of rag wrapped around the body. If you move too much, you will fall off in a minute.
Light!
The props team gave each of the remaining 12 people a realistic toy bow and arrow, as well as an unsharpened dagger that could be inserted at the waist!
Lu Yuqi took the bow and arrow and looked at it. He stretched out his hand and pulled the bowstring to test the strength. It was just a showpiece. It was not suitable for shooting arrows, but it was still handy as a makeshift weapon.
Each person followed the number order and performed the moves with the action teacher who had been preparing for a long time. The few people in front of Lu Yuqi rushed towards the action teacher with daggers in their hands, but the action teacher easily snatched the daggers away from them.
When the action teacher signaled to try again, they swung their fists forward, and those who reacted quickly used bows and arrows as weapons, but instead of shooting arrows, they used them as clubs to hit the opponent.
The behavior of these few people really gave the director a headache.
It was Lu Yuqi's turn to perform, and Elena and the screenwriter cheered for Lu Yuqi from the side! When the action teacher saw that it was Lu Yuqi, he immediately signaled him to leave and replace him with another one.
Lu Yuqi raised his eyebrows. The man who came on the field was obviously a middle-aged Asian man. He had a long breath and a stable lower body. He was obviously a martial artist. The last time I felt this kind of aura was from Lao Hou, the martial arts instructor in Yunmeng Chuan.
"Hello! I heard that you are good at kung fu, let me try you." It turned out that he was Chinese.
"You're welcome."
"Let's get started." The middle-aged man opposite said as he got into a defensive posture.
Lu Yuqi picked up the bow and arrow according to his understanding. The first film said that elves were all archers, and bows and arrows were also given out in this round of auditions. So as elves, if they fight, they should draw the bow and shoot the arrow first.
Although Lu Yuqi is not good at archery, he is still very confident. However, the range of the bow and arrow was very average and it did not cause any effect on the middle-aged man on the opposite side.
Watching Lu Yuqi's movements, the contestants laughed. There were also people who couldn't help but say something. But the director nodded secretly in his heart.
Lu Yuqi shot all the arrows in the quiver, slung the bow and arrow over his body, and quickly rushed towards the middle-aged man with a dagger in hand. His strikes seemed deadly, but he was holding back. The middle-aged man was no show-off, and his movements became more serious. With a clever move, the dagger was knocked out of Lu Yuqi's hand. Lu Yuqi did not stop because of losing his weapon. He directly picked up the bow and arrow slung across his body and continued attacking. Both the bow and bowstring could be used as weapons. Lu Yuqi made a beautiful flip and put the bowstring directly around the middle-aged man's neck.
Lu Yuqi acted with discretion and loosened his grip on the bow and arrow as soon as he put the sheath on.
Both of them stopped at the same time!
"I lost. If you were serious I think I would lose even faster."
Lu Yuqi smiled and said nothing.
"Oh my God, what did I see? I saw a great show!"
"Kipling Carter." The screenwriter shouted the director's full name: "I have countless inspirations now. I'm going back. I tell you! He is the dark elf in my mind." After that, the screenwriter left the third round of auditions, completely ignoring the fact that the auditions had not yet ended and there were other contestants who had not yet appeared.
After watching Lu Yuqi's audition, the four contestants who had not yet appeared on stage became completely depressed and had no hope at all.
The director said the auditions would continue, and Lu Yuqi, standing aside, was the first to applaud. Then more and more people applauded, all cheering for the remaining four actors. The four of them also mustered up the courage to complete their auditions.
After passing three rounds of auditions, Lu Yuqi performed brilliantly and won the role of the dark elf.
