Gu Dong tilted his head and looked at the examiner: "Do you know me?"
The examiner slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, of course I know you. You were the lead dancer in a performance at the Grand Theatre before, right?"
"Are you talking about the 'Dunhuang Flying Apsaras'? I was indeed the main dancer in that dance."
"Oh, yes, yes, that's it. I went to see it with my wife. She said you were beautiful and had a good figure, and that you were perfect for the female lead in the film she wrote."
The examiner's wife is a screenwriter and happened to have written a series of scripts about Dunhuang, so she went to the theater to watch the performance.
But later she found out that the lead dancer Gu Dong was still young and a minor, and she had been dancing since she was a child and would not come to film a movie.
So I gave up temporarily.
Speaking of this, Gu Dong actually remembers it. It happened two years ago.
She was seventeen years old at the time, and her sister and aunt said that they would not let her come into contact with anyone outside the dance troupe until she came of age.
So she knew about this, but she never thought about making a movie about it.
I never expected that somehow I would end up on the path of acting.
After listening to their conversation, several examiners were even more satisfied with Gu Dong. She had some acting experience and would not be stage fright.
Judging from the performance just now, her performance was also very good.
Several people looked at each other and nodded. The leading examiner said to Gu Dong, "Okay, you can go out first. I will inform you of the results later."
Gu Dong nodded and went out.
One examiner looked at her as she walked out, and said thoughtfully, "Don't you think she dressed this way specially today?"
The examiner who recognized Gu Dong suddenly realized: "Yes, what she wore today is very suitable for the character of the female supporting role. Did she prepare it specially?"
The examiner in charge was director Zhang Yike, who said a few words to the assistant beside him.
The assistant nodded and walked out.
After a while, Gu Dong came back in through the door he left.
Just as she found Fang Yunhui among dozens of people, she was called up again and told that the examiner had missed a question and asked her to go back and answer it.
Gu Dong had no choice but to follow him back.
Seeing Gu Dong coming back, Zhang Yike took another close look at her outfit and asked, "Did you prepare this outfit specifically for today's interview?"
Gu Chun had already discussed this issue with her in advance.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see how carefully she dressed. She didn't need to create the image of someone as calm as a chrysanthemum. She should be more sincere and tell them how much effort she had put into this role.
Gu Dong nodded generously and replied, "Yes, this is what my sister made for me based on the biography I wrote."
"Oh? You also wrote a biography? Can I see it?"
Gu Dong nodded: "I put it in my bag. I'll go get it."
"Yes, sure."
Gu Dong went out again to get his bag, took out the notebook and handed it to Zhang Yike.
Zhang Yike thought her biography would be no more than one page, but she didn't expect it to be a notebook.
This little girl is really interesting.
He opened it and saw that it first summarized her understanding of the role.
Next, we will begin to analyze the motivation and required tone of each sentence of the character.
Later on, the supporting characters’ family backgrounds and life experiences were added, which were not included in the script.
Even though Zhang Yike had seen hardworking actors, he had never seen one who was so dedicated.
This really gave him a big surprise.
Delighted, he immediately made the decision: "Gu Dong, this role is yours. You can sign the contract right now."
Gu Dong covered his mouth in surprise and asked, "Really? You want to let me pass directly?"
She looked at the other examiners again. Shouldn't she consider their opinions?
The examiner who recognized Gu Dong smiled and said, "You don't know? This is our Director Zhang. He has made the final decision. How can we have any objection?"
So, with Director Zhang's approval and no one else's objections, Gu Dong left with the contract in a daze.
Because she passed the exam early, she didn't have the chance to say goodbye to Fang Yunhui. She thought that if she could also pass the exam, they could still meet on the set.
After leaving the film studio, Gu Dong took the bus directly to the company to find Gu Chun.
Everyone in the company knew Gu Dong, so she had no trouble getting to Gu Chun's office.
Gu Chun happened to be attending a new product development meeting, so Gu Dong had no choice but to wait in the office.
Sitting in Gu Chun's boss chair, Gu Dong saw that there were two photo frames behind the folder.
One of them is a group photo of the five brothers and sisters of the Gu family.
One of them contains a photo of Gu Chun’s family of three.
Gu Dong picked up the group photo, and it was not the one taken during the recent Chinese New Year!
Instead, they took the photo more than ten years ago, during the two years when their sister was raising them alone.
Ever since he started learning acting, Gu Dong has liked to understand a person's psychology and personality from their facial expressions.
The little Zhuzi in this photo is still very small. He stretches out his hands to ask his sister to hold him. It can be seen at first glance that he is a clingy kid.
As for Gu Dong herself, she was wearing a little skirt, had two pigtails, and was smiling, looking very happy.
The third sister Gu Qiu is still very young, and her expression looks a little melancholy. It seems that she has not yet come out of the shadow of her parents' death.
Second brother Gu Xia pursed his lips, his eyes heavy.
Yes, he is the eldest boy in the family at this time, and he should have a heavy burden on his shoulders.
As for my sister, she was a little younger than she is now, but her eyes haven’t changed.
Through the photos, Gu Dong could see that the eighteen-year-old Gu Chun was so calm and beautiful.
