Chapter 901 Familiarity

Zhang Shengwen was waiting in the next room, drinking water. This audition gave him a completely different feeling. The biggest feeling was that he was taken seriously.

On the contrary, this kind of attention made Zhang Shengwen, who had experienced various audition scenes, feel inexplicably nervous.

Over the years, as I have grown older and have struggled at the bottom for so many years, I have experienced more things and my mentality has become more and more mature.

But this respect for his profession alone made his mood rise and fall again.

In the past ten years or so, the entire entertainment industry has been paying attention to traffic. The status of these unknown actors can be imagined. They are often shouted around on the set, and they have less and less status.

I have long been accustomed to others being indifferent to me.

"Maybe this is one of the reasons why Cuican Entertainment is developing so well!" Zhang Shengwen never thought that with his fame, he would get too many roles in Cuican Entertainment's TV series.

There were so many actors here for the audition today, and he felt extremely lucky to be the only one chosen on the spot, and he didn't dare to have any other extravagant expectations.

When the whole person is nervous, he will feel that time passes very slowly. Zhang Shengwen will raise his hand to look at the time on his watch from time to time.

But he didn't complain at all.

As a great director, others are not as pure as me. Maybe they were temporarily delayed by something.

In a blink of an eye, the water in the glass was empty again, and he had drank four glasses of water.

If you are too nervous, you can only relieve it by drinking water.

Zhang Shengwen put down the disposable cup in his hand and was too embarrassed to go get the water again. Then he began to reflect on whether there was anything that needed improvement in the content of his audition.

After all, there is only twenty minutes of preparation time, and the characters can only be analyzed in such a short time through the experience accumulated over the years.

Then he took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened the note, and wrote down what he was dissatisfied with.

When he first entered the actor industry, Zhang Shengwen would carry a notebook with him wherever he went to record his problems and then reflect and summarize.

Later, by chance, he saw someone recording something on a mobile phone, so he replaced his notebook with a mobile phone.

After a while, Zhang Shengwen stood up and came to the door. When he saw the staff coming in, he asked, "Hello, where is the bathroom?"

Since arriving at the Bright Entertainment Company early in the morning, I haven't been to the toilet yet. I drank too much water in the conference room, and I felt a little anxious for a while.

"This way." Zhang Shengwen went to the toilet under the guidance of the staff. After a person came back from the toilet, he saw a young and beautiful girl standing at the door, looking around as if waiting for someone.

Zhang Shengwen didn't pay attention and was going back to the conference room to continue waiting for Lin Qingye.

"Hello, are you Teacher Zhang Shengwen Zhang?"

Zhang Shengwen nodded "Yeah".

"I am Mr. Tan's secretary. My name is Chen Ye. Come with me. Mr. Tan is waiting for you in the office."

After the audition, Tan Yue returned to the office. I originally planned to ask Lin Qingye to go directly to the meeting, but after careful consideration, I decided to do it myself. By the way, I also got to know Zhang Shengwen, which would also be helpful for the filming of the TV series.

So Chen Ye was asked to come over and inform.

Zhang Shengwen was a little surprised. Lin Qingye didn't wait for a big boss. Without any time to think about it, he quickly followed Chen Ye to find Tan Yue.

The two of them got in the elevator and headed to the president's office on the eighth floor.

Chen Ye secretly observed Zhang Shengwen along the way. His first impression on her was that he was honest and polite.

Many people can't help but look around when they come to Bright Entertainment Company for the first time.

Face engineering is sometimes a derogatory term, but sometimes it still has to be done.

Cuican Entertainment Company is the third first-class entertainment company in the country. It still needs to have some cards, and the decorations in many places are relatively grand and gorgeous.

Another thing that made Chen Ye think Zhang Shengwen was honest was that the two of them didn't say a word or ask anything along the way.

In the past, when outsiders learned that Chen Ye was Tan Yue's secretary, they would ask a few questions to understand Tan Yue's personality and preferences.

‘Ding dong’.

The elevator stopped at the eighth floor.

"Teacher Zhang, please come this way."

"Thanks!"

The two came to the door of an office, and Chen Ye knocked gently on the door.

"Come in."

Chen Ye opened the door and said, "Mr. Tan, Teacher Zhang is here!"

"Please come in."

"Please come in." Chen Ye stretched out his hand and signaled.

Tan Yue was making tea. He put down the tea set and stood up to greet him. He expressed his respect and said, "Teacher Zhang, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."

"It's okay. It didn't take long. There's nothing to do when I go back anyway. I might as well feel the atmosphere of your company."

Zhang Shengwen seemed a little cautious.

"Teacher Zhang, please sit down. I have just made some tea. How does it taste?"

"Mr. Tan, you are too polite!" Zhang Shengwen felt flattered and thought that he was a little unworthy!

Chen Ye poured the tea, closed the door and went out.

Tan Yue said: "Taste this tea, I think it tastes pretty good."

It was the first time for the two of them to chat. In order to avoid embarrassment, Tan Yue livened up the atmosphere and also eased Zhang Shengwen's tension.

"Thank you." Zhang Shengwen took a sip and praised: "Good tea."

Tan Yue smiled and introduced the situation of tea.

Zhang Shengwen listened carefully, actually feeling increasingly nervous.

Tan Yue is now a legend in the film and television industry, but he is just a young actor who is about to turn 50 and still not very famous after twenty years in the industry. The other party's politeness made him feel a little overwhelmed.

Having experienced a lot, Zhang Shengwen has a good eye for seeing people. Whether he is sincere or hypocritical, he can tell at a glance.

It was obvious that Tan Yue really respected him.

This is where he is still confused. He only played a small role. Why would Tan Yue do this to him?

Tan Yue took a sip of tea and started to get down to business, saying, "Teacher Zhang, are you still a little confused now? Why was your role confirmed on the spot?"

Zhang Shengwen nodded.

"Because you will play a big villain in this TV series next." Tan Yue explained: "This role is also the second male lead in the whole drama, and his role is very important, basically similar to the role of the first male lead. "

The role of 'Gao Qiqiang' is the second male lead in "Kurst", but with his excellent acting skills, he has gained great attention and is far more popular online than the leading male lead.

Zhang Shengwen was stunned, and his mind went blank for a moment.

After a while, all kinds of emotions came over me.

I always thought it was a small role, but I didn’t expect that I would be the second male lead in the play. This is something I never dreamed of.

Zhang Shengwen felt that his heart was beating violently and his adrenaline was racing.

I have been in the industry for 20 years and have been waiting hard for 20 years. Every day I dream about when I can play a role with a lot of roles. I originally thought there was no hope in this life, after all, I have passed the age of dreaming.

I didn’t expect that my dream would come true today, but it was Cuican Entertainment Company that helped me realize my wish.

After getting excited, Zhang Shengwen quickly calmed down.

He no longer has the mentality of a young man. Taking on this role came with pressure. The outside world regarded the film and television works of Bright Entertainment Company as benchmarks, and he still had an important role in the play.

Zhang Shengwen took a deep breath and suddenly felt that the burden on his body had become much heavier.

Tan Yue consoled him: "Don't put too much pressure on me. There will be no problem in playing this role with your acting skills."

While talking, Tan Yue took out Gao Qiqiang's character biography and the script of "Hurry Up" and said: "The audition just now was about part of this character's personality traits, and the performance was very good."

Zhang Shengwen raised his hand and took the information, feeling that his hands were shaking slightly.

"Gao Qiqiang." Zhang Shengwen read out while looking at the character's biography.

"Yes, this is the role you will play next." Tan Yue said: "You can understand the script first."

Zhang Shengwen clicked and started reading the biographies first, then flipped through the script.

After more than ten minutes, Tan Yue said: "You watch first, I will briefly introduce the plot."

Zhang Shengwen still attached great importance to the issue of politeness. He did not continue to look at the script in his hand and stopped to listen to the introduction carefully.

""Crazy" is an anti-gang criminal investigation drama. Gao Qiqiang is a low-level fish seller."

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

"The above is the general plot of the script, as well as some of the character of Gao Qiqiang." Tan Yue picked up the cup and drank water. After talking for so long, his mouth was a little dry.

Zhang Shengwen looked at the script in his hand and did not expect that it was an anti-criminal investigation drama. He had never tried this kind of role before, and it was also a challenge for him.

"I will get familiar with the script and characters as soon as possible and live up to your trust."

There is pressure, but Zhang Shengwen is confident to play this role well and complete this challenge.

The two chatted in the office for a while.

Tan Yue said: "After you go back, familiarize yourself with the script. After the preparations are completed, you can start shooting. I believe you will shine in this TV series! I am very much looking forward to your performance!"

"Thank you, Mr. Tan, I'll go back first."

Now Zhang Shengwen finally understands what Lin Qingye said to him, "Performing this role well will bring special surprises."

The confusion about why such a little-known little character like me was so valued by Bright Entertainment Company and Tan Yue was solved.

He is very excited now. This TV series is Tan Yue's work. It is something that many actors dream of. Maybe through this TV series, his long-standing wish to leave a classic work can be realized.

Zhang Shengwen stood up and left. Unexpectedly, he met Zhou Can at the door and was shocked.

Zhou Can left a deep impression on the audience in "Kung Fu" and "The King of Comedy".

After watching these two movies, Zhang Shengwen felt that Zhou Can's performance art was extremely high. There were few actors in the industry who could perform this kind of performance, including himself, and he was very impressed.

"Hello, Teacher Zhou."

Zhang Shengwen walked up directly to say hello.

Zhou Can was a little confused, crazily recalling the name of the person in front of him in his mind.

If he were outside, Zhou Can might think he would be a fan.

But to be able to come out of Tan Yue's office, he must not be an ordinary person.

After brainstorming, no information about the other party was found, so Zhou Can responded politely: "Hello."

Chen Ye on the side introduced him: "This is Teacher Zhang Shengwen Zhang, who came here for the audition today."

Zhou Can said "Oh" and nodded in response.

Zhang Shengwen said: "I like the movie you acted in very much. I never thought of such a performance before. It is unique not only at home, but also abroad."

He has carefully studied Zhou Can's performance style. It may seem a bit unserious to others, but this is exactly what "nonsense comedy" needs.

Zhou Can perfectly combines "funny" and "tearful", which is also the most difficult in comedy movies. Few actors can do this.

"Thank you, thank you." Zhou Can was a little embarrassed. The other party was older than him and still used honorifics.

"I didn't expect to meet you one day." Zhang Shengwen's performance was really like a fan meeting his idol.

Zhou Can smiled slightly awkwardly. He was a little socially anxious.

Zhang Shengwen hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, I'm a little excited to see you for the first time!"

"It's okay, it's okay."

"You're busy first, I won't bother you." Zhang Shengwen nodded slightly and left quickly, wondering when he would have the opportunity to work with such an actor.

"Mr. Tan is inside, go in."

Zhou Can was still in a state of confusion. He didn't think much when he heard Chen Ye's voice.

After knocking on the door gently, Zhou Can walked into the office and sat in the place where Zhang Shengwen had just sat. A new cup had been placed on the table.

"Mr. Tan."

"Have some tea." Tan Yue said, "You performed well today, and your acting skills have improved again."

Zhou Can said "thank you" and took a sip of tea.

"Maybe in the eyes of others, your acting style is more exaggerated and nonsensical, and you belong to a comedian, but in fact, your acting style is not what they can understand. Comedy is much more difficult than those idol dramas." Tan Yue picked up the cup and drank a sip of tea.

Zhou Can nodded, thinking of his past performances that were not accepted by everyone, and he was even scolded by many directors.

But fortunately, with Tan Yue, his acting skills have a place to play.

Not only that, at the audition today, his serious acting skills also conquered a group of people.

Tan Yue picked up a piece of information and handed it to Zhou Can: "This is the character biography and the script."

Zhou Can solemnly took the script, thinking that he must do his best to play this role well and not let Tan Yue down.

Regardless of the performance style, Tan Yue believes in himself, and he also has to show his attitude and ability.

"You should learn about it first."

After reading the character biography, Zhou Can realized that the content of the audition was part of the role of 'An Xin', and now he has a comprehensive understanding.

But he has to wait until he reads the complete script to fully understand this role.

Tan Yue gave Zhou Can 20 minutes to understand the script, and then began to introduce the content of the script. Unlike Zhang Shengwen's Gao Qiqiang, An Xin's story is more restrained, and the control of subtle emotions is more rigorous.
