Chapter 24 I am the Pei Lang you know

Before I knew it, it was time for the audition.

This time the interview was conducted by Director Jin and several important producers, which shows how much importance they attach to this role.

The role that has not been decided yet has been recommended by someone, and the recommender is Yan Han. He will of course attach great importance to it and look forward to it. He believes that the person recommended by Yan Han must be good, and he can't wait for his appearance.

Pei Lang deliberately wore a bamboo green long gown from the Republic of China today. Although it was not an ancient costume, it made him look ethereal and his every move was full of ancient charm.

Already downstairs, Su Jia had already contacted everything, Pei Lang just had to go for the audition and wait for the result. Entering the elevator, Pei Lang's deliberate dressing made Su Jia feel distressed. He knew Pei Lang's acting skills, even if Director Jin was blind, he would not be interested in him. Now Pei Lang was not annoying, but dazzling, making people unable to take their eyes off him. When Su Jia thought that Pei Lang's careful preparation would fail in the end, he opened his mouth and finally said words of comfort.

"Don't be nervous when you meet the director later, and show your best. Don't be discouraged if you are not chosen. With your qualifications, you can be an idol instead of an actor. I see that you can play the guitar, right? When the time comes, you can debut as a trainee and learn singing. You will definitely be able to attract everyone's attention." Su Jia had already planned Pei Lang's future. He only knew that Pei Lang was going to perform for the children in the orphanage, but he didn't know how good he was at singing.

Guitar is usually played and sung. Since he can play this instrument, he should be able to sing as well. In addition, Pei Lang has a nice voice. With more practice, debuting will not be a problem.

"I know. Don't worry. This is the best opportunity. I will seize it." Pei Lang smiled and patted Su Jia's shoulder, who was even more nervous than himself, to comfort her.

As they were talking, they had already reached the designated floor and found the audition room according to the location provided. There was someone guarding the door, and when he saw Su Jia, he took the initiative to step forward. "Is this Mr. Su?"

"Well, we're here for an audition."

"The director is already waiting. The auditioner must be this gentleman." When the woman's eyes drifted to Pei Lang, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she kept a mechanical smile on her face. "Sir, please follow me."

He knocked on the door with Pei Lang, explained the situation and got permission. "Sir, please go in. The director is waiting for you."

"Well, thank you." After thanking him, Pei Lang gently pushed the door open and walked in.

"Mr. Su, please follow me to the rest area and wait for me."

Su Jia followed the receptionist to rest.

Entering the audition room, several pairs of eyes swept over, either sizing him up or examining him. Pei Lang just smiled calmly, walked to the middle and stood there. Before he could introduce himself, Director Jin, who was sitting in the middle and had the most power, asked directly, "Are you the kid that President Yan recommended?"

"Yes, Director." Pei Lang knew what Yan Han said to the director. He actually called him a kid. Is there a 27-year-old kid who is over 1.8 meters tall?

"Do you know my rules?" Director Jin asked again.

"I know. Thank you Director Jin for giving me an audition opportunity." The so-called rule means that no matter who recommends the candidate, if he doesn't like the candidate, the candidate will be rejected.

Normally, this opportunity was rare, and it was his first audition. Most people would be nervous facing a big production and a big director. But Pei Lang was not like that. He was very calm, with a polite smile on his face. He had a perfect sense of proportion, not flattering or hypocritical, and made people feel very comfortable.

Director Jin was not young, he looked to be in his thirties or forties, and he kept a good figure, which made him look wise and mature. When Pei Lang entered the room, his eyes scanned him like a machine. It must be said that Pei Lang's carefulness and deliberate dressing were very attractive, and, from the appearance alone, Pei Lang was quite suitable.

In the original novel, the second male lead character is very complex and his appearance is the only thing he cares about.

Of course, there is no shortage of good-looking people in the entertainment industry. Although Pei Lang is considered to be at the top of the entertainment industry, the most important thing right now is whether he can interpret the role well.

When selecting actors, Director Jin considers whether their appearance matches theirs and whether their acting skills are solid. Who has the final say in a play? Most people would say it is the investors, but it is different for Director Jin. He is the boss and everything must be done according to his rules. Because he has the capital to make the play popular and make money, there are many people vying to invest in his play. Naturally, he becomes the one with the most say.

He has principles and strength, and Pei Lang admires such artists.

"Let's start once you're ready." Director Jin said. Pei Lang, who was smiling just now, suddenly changed his expression and instantly immersed himself in the role.

The second male lead turned evil and talked to himself and went crazy. His eyes were full of drama and the changes were fast. It was another explosive scene, which made Director Jin applaud. His eyes were jealous, unwilling, and crazy. With the script lines, it was like a high-tech character from a book was brought to life.

This scene is actually difficult to control. If you are not careful, you will really become a soulless madman. But Pei Lang did it, performing the core of the role and making people feel that his madness is reasonable and legitimate. The whole world owes him an apology.

This scene only lasted ten minutes. Pei Lang was the first to come out of his role after it ended, but the audience was still not satisfied. It was not until Pei Lang bowed politely that Director Jin applauded. "Not bad, not bad, you are a good kid."

The role they had been looking for for so long finally had hope. Director Jin and the producers beside him all had their eyes shining. They were looking forward to it, but they didn't expect Pei Lang to perform so well, much better than they had expected.

"Thank you, Director." Pei Lang bowed humbly again. Director Jin was satisfied with his performance. Pei Lang hesitated for a moment and said, "Director, I would like to fight for another performance for myself. Is that ok?"

They were not having fun to begin with, so after Pei Lang said this, Director Jin naturally agreed.

Pei Lang didn't dare to waste everyone's time and immediately made preparations.

Pei Lang suddenly saw a folding fan slip off his not-so-wide long sleeves. When the end of the fan fell into his palm, he suddenly grabbed it, and then with a "whoosh" sound, the fan opened.

The fan in his hand became a sharp weapon, and the professional martial arts moves matched the fan, combining strength and softness. Turning the fan, flipping the fan... the movements were beautiful and powerful. With his platform side flips and other moves, the dancing young man in the role stood in front of him. Then, Pei Lang's eyes froze, and the fan closed. The 35-centimeter fan seemed to have turned into a short sword, and Pei Lang's movements sped up a lot. His eyes were struggling and unwilling, and his movements were anxious and chaotic, as if he was eager to vent something.

This is the struggle and contradiction of the protagonist on the verge of evil, which he interprets with martial arts.

The movements fit the character's heart, and it is not difficult to see Pei Lang's martial arts skills. He performed a series of difficult movements, and he did it all from the ground up, including flying kicks, side flips, stabbing swords, sweeping, and raising swords. The movements were smooth and flowing, and in addition to flying over eaves and walls, he looked like a real martial arts boy jumping out of a book.

Well, with him acting, there is no need for a martial arts instructor.

Pei Lang finished the performance with a perfect spin, and bowed without blushing or panting. It was obvious that he had good endurance.

Applause broke out, and Director Jin stood up excitedly, walked around the table and came to Pei Lang, unable to suppress the smile on his face. "Okay, okay! Hahaha~~ This role belongs to you. President Yan really didn't let me down. It's you, kid. I will find someone to draft the terms and conditions of the film pay as soon as possible. If you have any requirements, feel free to ask."

I didn't expect it to be settled right away. Pei Lang had been confident, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth. What are the requirements... No requirements for now. "Thank you, director. I will follow the production team's arrangements."

That being said, anyone recommended by Yan Han will definitely not be treated unfairly.

Director Jin liked this obedient child very much, but he still didn't know how to address him. "Little boy, what's your name?"

Pei Lang was obviously stunned. He hadn't told anyone his name until now. He even wondered why these people had no prejudice against him. It turned out that they didn't even know he was Pei Lang.

He has changed too much.

The original owner always had long hair, heavy makeup, and slutty clothes. Pei Lang still has some of the original owner's shadow, so it's normal that people can't recognize him. Occasionally someone thinks he looks familiar, but I won't associate him with that Pei Lang.

He could use a stage name when debuting, but Pei Lang did not intend to do so. He occupied the original owner's body, so it was natural for him to accept the troubles brought by this body. What's more, he was Pei Lang.

Therefore, Pei Lang openly gave his name.

Director Jin frowned after hearing this, and Pei Lang's heart also lifted. "This name is not good. It has the same name as someone else. Since you are new to the industry, why not just choose a new stage name and debut."

Is there a possibility that the person you are talking about is me?

Although he said that he might lose this acting opportunity, Pei Lang still wanted to explain. "Director, I am Pei Lang, the Pei Lang you know."

"???" Director Jin was surprised, surprised at Pei Lang's change, surprised at Pei Lang's honesty. "Are you really that Pei Lang?"

Pei Lang's martial arts movements didn't seem to be quick, so... I couldn't understand it. I really couldn't understand it. A fool who knew nothing actually conquered me with his acting skills today.

The original owner had no chance to meet Director Jin. Everything was just online videos and rumors. Director Jin looked at Pei Lang, who was smiling calmly, and said frankly that rumors can kill people. "No matter who you are, this role is given to you, so you must play it well."

"Thank you, Director."

Someone arranged for the subsequent signing of the contract and joining the crew. Pei Lang said goodbye to the director and left. Su Jia waited nervously in the lounge. When Pei Lang found him, he saw that he was fidgeting. He couldn't help but complain in his heart, how could Yan Han, such a calm person, find an assistant with such poor psychological quality? However, he was still quite cute.

"It's over so soon?" Su Jia saw Pei Lang and stood up in surprise. Seeing that Pei Lang didn't look happy or sad, he knew it was over and he was eliminated.

Pei Lang was still pretending to be calm.

Su Jia rushed over and gave Pei Lang a hug, patting his back to comfort him. "Ah, it's okay to fail once. Director Jin has always had high standards, and he has rejected countless actors. Don't be discouraged, let's change direction, or if you really want to act, let's start with small roles and small productions, and take it slowly."

“Hehe~~” Pei Lang felt both amused and warm, and laughed dryly twice.
