Chapter 426 Inexperience
The heating hadn't started in October yet, and even at home, people couldn't take off their coats. Because her company made men's clothing, Gu Jinyan never went out to buy clothes. Seeing the children wearing cotton-padded jackets bought from outside, she suddenly had the idea of making children's clothing.
However, she has just started making men's clothing, and now she has started making children's clothing. I'm afraid Fu Shan will chop her off if she finds out. She can't bite off more than she can chew at once. Forget it, let's wait and see.
The next day, Ye Qian went to the company early in the morning. She had an audition and naturally could not be late. She thought that arriving at the company at 8:30 was early enough, but she didn't expect that there were people who came earlier than her.
There were a lot of people auditioning, and everyone was queuing in the lobby on the first floor, waiting for the staff to come to work.
The audition was held in a conference room on the second floor. Ye Qian first put down her bag upstairs, and then went to the second floor to get ready.
Professor Xiao also arrived at the company on time. He was surprised to see so many people outside. When he saw Ye Qian, he said, "Why are there so many people?"
Why did he ask her about this? "Didn't you arrange this? I was shocked when you came this morning. With so many people around, I don't know if it will be finished."
Professor Xiao walked inside, pulled out a stool, and sat down next to Ye Qian. "I didn't arrange for so many people. I just mentioned it at school. Who knew so many people would come?"
"You're teaching at the Film Academy now. You don't know how many people are there. You thought you were at Han City University."
Professor Xiao was choked by Ye Qian. "One group comes in. The suitable ones can be spotted at a glance. It won't take much time."
"Have the main actors arrived?" Ye Qian turned and asked the staff of Huanxi Entertainment.
The employee nodded and said, "I'm here. I'll bring the person over first."
"Yes, that's fine." Ye Qian turned to Professor Xiao and said, "Let's take a look at the lead actor first and book this one first."
Professor Xiao nodded, "Yes."
After the staff brought the actors in, Ye Qian learned that the actor auditioning for the male lead was Li Yanghua, a recently popular male artist. But Ye Qian didn't care about that. From the beginning, when she was still unknown, she had always used newcomers. Now that she was a little famous, she cared even less about whether the actors in the movie were famous or not. Her criteria for selecting actors was only whether they were suitable for the role and their acting skills. Even if their acting skills were fresh and they had good coordination, that was fine.
Li Yanghua had an impatient expression from the moment he pushed the door open, even giving Ye Qian a look of disdain. Ye Qian pretended not to notice, but she was already thinking about it. He then found a stool and sat down. He sat there with his legs crossed, silent and silent. Ye Qian didn't mind, but Professor Xiao, upon seeing his attitude, said, "You're here for an audition, not for tea."
Li Yanghua snorted, showing no respect for Professor Xiao. He crossed his legs and switched to another. Ye Qian couldn't help but laugh. She turned to look at Professor Xiao, whose expression wasn't very good. She immediately covered her mouth with her hand. After all, this was the first time she'd seen someone who dared to give Professor Xiao such a face. Ye Qian adjusted her mindset and expression and asked Li Yanghua, "I gave you the script earlier. Try acting out a scene from Chapter 4, Section 2."
"Do I still need to audition?" Li Yanghua was dissatisfied and made a face as soon as he came in. Why did he need to continue auditioning? He was so famous now, and many directors were vying for him. Moreover, he didn't need to audition at all. She had only filmed two movies, but she still had to audition before letting him act. If it wasn't for the company's strong request, he would not come.
"Oh, then you go first." Ye Qian said to the assistant, "Next."
"Just sign the contract with me directly, so I don't have to run back and forth?" Li Yanghua asked quickly when he saw Ye Qian calling the next person.
Ye Qian was bewildered. Did he not understand? He must have really not understood. Ye Qian quickly explained, "We didn't say we wanted to film with you. What contract do we need to sign?"
"No, if you don't want me to act, then what role do you want me to audition for?" Li Yanghua didn't understand now, and quickly called his agent in.
The agent outside had already heard everything going on inside clearly. This little ancestor had only been famous for a while, and now he was acting like a big shot. What the hell was going on? If it wasn't impolite to push the door open, she would have rushed in just now. Now that she heard Li Yanghua calling her, she immediately ran in and apologized directly to Professor Xiao and Ye Qian: "I'm sorry, Director Ye and Professor Xiao, I'm so sorry. This kind of problem will never happen again in the future."
Ye Qian nodded, indicating that she understood. Directors these days are still quite arrogant, and there are indeed cases of beating and scolding actors. Ye Qian considers herself to be a person with a bad temper, but this time she did not curse. Li Yanghua was still a little confused about the situation, "Why are you apologizing?"
The agent angrily scolded Li Yanghua: "Shut up right there."
"Director Ye, I'll take her away now." Ye Qian still nodded without saying anything.
When Li Yanghua was being dragged away by his agent, he shouted, somewhat confused, "No, why are you dragging me away? The contract hasn't been signed yet."
It wasn't until he was pulled out of the company door by his agent that he let go of his hand and said, "Why are you signing? Do you know who Director Ye is? How dare you give her a hard time? I fought so hard for you to get this opportunity, and you just ruined it. Go back to the company and reflect on this. I can make you famous, or I can hide you. But you're acting like a big shot after just a few days of fame. Be honest and go back to the company."
After being scolded by his agent, Li Yanghua finally behaved a little and got on the car back to the company.
After the two men left, Professor Xiao asked with some confusion, "I thought you were going to curse. After waiting for a long time, you didn't say anything. Your temper has improved."
Ye Qian's temper only grew on set, and she couldn't quite control it. Some actors could get by with just one or two takes, and she wouldn't get angry, but some couldn't even get by with over 30, and she couldn't stand it. But that was only during work; she never brought that temper home. Filming and casting were both very important matters, and it was natural to get angry and kick someone out, but Ye Qian managed to control it.
Professor Xiao waited for a long time, and finally received Ye Qian's explanation: "I won't argue with fools."
This is a reasonable explanation. "I thought you had changed your temper."
"It's impossible to change it. It's impossible in this lifetime. I can't even pass more than 30 items and I can't let people scold me. I'll go crazy." At this point, Ye Qian was curious about how Professor Xiao decided on the list of male lead and male second.
Professor Xiao also said with some regret: "It was their company that recommended them. Who knew they would be of such quality?"
Seeing Professor Xiao's frustration, Ye Qian was secretly amused, but she still tried to comfort him by saying, "It's just a lack of experience. It will get better in the future."
