Xie Luyu arrived quite late. The tables on both sides were basically full, with the middle one left empty. Director Wang sat right in the middle, standing out from the crowd. There were empty seats on both sides.
Xie Luyu was not afraid even though others were scared. He walked around and wanted to sit next to Wang Haisheng.
Director Wang took the time to glance at him while flipping through the script and pointed at the sofa in the corner.
"You sit over there. It's hard to get in the middle, and it will be inconvenient for rehearsing later."
Xie Luyu:……
He just knows it!
This bastard Wang Haisheng never lets him down.
She was very caring towards him during the filming, but turned hostile as soon as it was over. The reality was outrageous.
Xie Luyu sat on the sofa with his legs spread wide. As soon as he sat down, the assistant director next to him handed him the script.
The young man smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Thank you, brother. The director said that you should pay special attention to the part he circled because it might be needed in the audition."
Xie Luyu, who had taken the initiative to do the work and had prepared himself mentally, felt a little sad:...
Okay.
Xie Luyu resigned himself to his fate and began to flip through the pages.
He had read the script before and even remembered most of the lines.
The background is set in the chaotic ancient times.
Kechengqi, a playboy in Beijing.
There is a "seven" in his name because he is the seventh child in the family. The Ke family is a famous military family. Their descendants have practiced martial arts for generations. They are loyal to the emperor and defend the country in peacetime, and take up arms to kill the enemy in times of chaos.
The military exploits accumulated over many generations have made the Ke family a prestigious family in the capital.
The Ke family was a large and prosperous family. The heads of the family were Ke Chengqi's grandparents. Ke Chengqi's father had a total of nine brothers and sisters.
Ke Chengqi's generation also has a lot of cousins, as can be seen from the name Ke Chengqi.
He is inconspicuous among many outstanding brothers.
Not as outstanding as my older brothers and sisters, nor as favored as my younger brothers and sisters.
Only his appearance is good enough.
He was the youngest son and had never been treated badly in terms of food, clothing and other expenses. Even though his father disliked him, he had an outstanding older brother to support him, and his mother only had him and his older brother as her children, so she doted on him very much.
Perhaps for this reason, the Ke family is full of brave men who defend their country, but this generation has an outlier, Ke Chengqi.
He does not like swords, spears, or halberds, but only likes brocade hats, sable furs, bright clothes, and fast horses.
But a sudden change brought devastating disaster to the Ke family and made him lose the protection of his family overnight.
High crime of treason.
The respected old man of the Ke family knelt in front of the palace for a whole day and night to plead guilty, which eventually resulted in all the male officials in the Ke family being exiled. The once glorious Ke family became deserted overnight.
Ke Chengqi, who was originally immersed in sensual pleasures, was suddenly awakened from his sweet dream. There was still some wine from Zuichunlou on his lips, but all the beautiful friends around him had dispersed.
My eldest brother's father and many of his cousins were exiled, and my mother hanged herself.
The older brother and sister are seven or eight years old, and the younger one is still ignorant.
Grandparents are old.
In a blink of an eye, he became the only pillar of the entire Ke family.
Ke Chengqi had to throw away his elegant folding fan. His former laughter, anger and scolding had now all turned into humble movements around.
Finally, his hands without any calluses clenched the sword and gun.
He had no time to think, and was pushed forward, stumbling, with the burden of an entire family on his thin shoulders.
When they were at their wits' end, a border war broke out.
He sat in front of the ancestral tablet all night, and finally took up his knife and pleaded for his life, signing a life-and-death agreement.
He used his military exploits little by little to atone for the sins he was ignorant of, giving his family a little breathing room.
When he finally returned triumphantly with his wounded body, he saw his father, uncles, elder brother and brothers, all standing at the door, quietly welcoming him.
Ke Chengqi's eyes became moist. In the past few years, he had worked hard to make military achievements and atone for their sins bit by bit.
Ke Chengqi laughed.
As he laughed, Ke Chengqi, who had already made great achievements in battle, hugged his brother and burst into tears under the gaze of many uncles and cousins, as if he was still the young man in fine clothes, riding a horse, laughing and cursing.
Ke Chengqi defended the glory of the Ke family. After such a long and arduous journey, he could finally take a break.
At this time, he already knew a lot of things and was in a high position of power.
All the past events, who was right and who was wrong, are gone with the wind.
His deeds are spread all over the streets and alleys.
Everyone knows that the Ke family is well-known and Ke Chengqi is a great general that everyone admires.
The life of debauchery in my youth has become a dream.
Although it is a typical commercial film, it is of good quality and quite interesting. At least Xie Luyu became interested after reading the script.
For this audition, Director Wang planned to select several important supporting roles together.
Including the eldest brother, mother and father, these three characters have relatively more roles.
The casting of these people went smoothly, and Xie Luyu was cast almost before he even had to go on stage.
Then there is another one. Xie Luyu knew that the screenwriter had hesitated for a long time whether to delete this character. The reason was that the requirements for the actor were too high.
Ke Mu was a very smart child and he was very good at studying.
But when I was a child, I didn't get timely treatment for my fever, which damaged my brain.
From then on, I forgot all the books I had read. It took me two or three hours to read three sentences in school, and I still read haltingly during the teacher's examination.
No matter how old you are, you still have some childishness.
But surprisingly, he is very talented in martial arts.
Ke Mu's father was a subordinate of Ke Chengqi's father. He died in the battlefield in his early years, leaving him in the Ke family to become Ke Chengqi's study companion.
He is a very stubborn person. When he was a child, others told him to listen to Ke Chengqi, and he has been committed to Ke Chengqi for the rest of his life.
Ke Mu is so obedient that people can't help but care about him more.
When Ke Chengqi was young, he was a scoundrel. He was resentful that his mother, father and even his elder brother favored Ke Mu. He did not like Ke Mu and often tormented Ke Mu.
He even said that Ke Mu was his dog, which was a bit harsh, but it was true.
When Ke Chengqi was indulging in debauchery, he was pouring wine for him; when Ke Chengqi was fighting in the battlefield, he was patrolling for Ke Chengqi.
Just like a loyal vicious dog, he could be scolded and beaten at will, and all his fangs were automatically retracted when facing Ke Chengqi.
In the later period, Ke Mu saved Ke Chengqi's life in exchange for his own in a battle between two opponents with a huge disparity in strength. Overall, he didn't have many scenes.
This is easy to say, but in the script, Ke Mu is set to be a handsome man with the best appearance in the whole text. He is so beautiful that when he went to war, the only princess held in the emperor's palm saw him.
From then on, she would not marry anyone but him. Even after she found out that he had no knowledge of love and no understanding of human nature, she remained devoted to him. She loved his handsome face, his slim waist and slender back, the clarity in his eyes, the fact that he was not as foul-smelling as other men, and she loved his pure heart.
But Ke Chengqi did not give in.
Many people had wanted to take Ke Mu away from him, including some in high positions of power. They used all sorts of means, threats and inducements, and even at the most difficult times, Ke Chengqi never gave in.
But this time it was different. Everyone could see the princess' sincerity and she did not hide her love. This royal anecdote even spread outside the palace and was sung everywhere by storytellers.
This time, as long as he gives Ke Mu a push forward, a lifetime of peace and happiness will be waiting for Ke Mu. Even the old man and the old lady feel that this is God's blessing to Ke Mu and the Ke family.
But Ke Chengqi declined politely. As long as Ke Chengqi didn't speak, Ke Mu would not agree.
In the end, he couldn't refuse, so he dragged it on until the end, when Ke Mu died on the battlefield.
Xie Luyu slowly analyzed that if the role of Ke Mu was played well, it would be very outstanding.
This is a very controversial role. Xie Luyu can imagine how many tears this role will earn, and how many people will curse passionately under the official blog.
But when he opened the script given to him by Wang Haisheng, he found that the role's role had been reduced a lot, to the point where it was just a vase role.
In the end, he did not die on the battlefield, but instead blocked an assassin's attack for Ke Chengqi before he grew up.
Xie Luyu flipped through the pages and found that the original version was at the back.
Xie Luyu immediately guessed what Wang Haisheng was thinking.
There are two versions, one is a vase and the other has a certain role. Which version to choose depends on the actor.
Ke Mu's audition began. The first actor came in but hadn't spoken yet.
Wang Haisheng raised his camera and took a picture.
Then he lowered his head to check.
Xie Luyu:……
There are quite a few people with high traffic invited to audition this time, but the actor circle is too small and there are not many people who meet the requirements.
With Director Wang's simple and rough style of doing things, Xie Luyu knew their invitation criteria with his eyes closed. It was probably just inviting people based on their good looks in photos or something like that.
However, photo editing has become a unique skill in the circle, and the difference can no longer be described by the buyer's show and the seller's show.
Wang Haisheng took photos as soon as he entered the door, probably to see if he looked like the photo and whether he would look photogenic in real life.
