Chapter 664: Get Ready to Shoot!

Another day passed.

Li Wei hurried to Shanghai, and hurried back to Beijing with Peng Yuchang.

Everything went smoothly.

Except that Peng Yuchang felt that his experience was magical and unreal, there were no problems.

"Did Director Wu really invite me to audition?"

"How did he know me?"

"No one knows me at school!"

"Are you really not lying to me?"

Along the way, Peng Yuchang's doubts never stopped.

Even though Li Wei had explained it many times, he didn't know where Wu Yuan heard about Peng Yuchang. Anyway, the company's task was to take him back to Beijing for an audition.

But Peng Yuchang still found it unbelievable.

Let's put it this way, he has grown up so big, and the word "lucky" has nothing to do with him.

If he was lucky, he should be more handsome.

If he was lucky, he should be admitted to the acting department of the Film Academy.

He originally thought that this was the only way he could live his life. With his barely-there status as a graduate of the Shanghai Theatre Academy, he worked hard to send his resume to various major crews after graduation, hoping that a TV crew would give him a small role to play, and then work hard to climb up step by step, striving to play the leading actor once before the age of 30.

If it really doesn't work, it's okay to play the leading actor once before the age of 35, and then work hard to gain a foothold in the actor circle. Anyway, the golden period of male actors is relatively long, and there are still opportunities in their 40s and 50s.

As long as he can stay in this circle and continue his dream of being an actor, that's enough.

This is Peng Yuchang's plan for his future, and even for him, this plan is difficult to achieve, after all, the first step of "playing a role" is difficult.

Which crew would want an actor from the puppet performance department?

Unless there happens to be a character setting of a puppet performer or something like that, but the probability is really too low.

But what he didn't expect was that he had such a great opportunity before he graduated from college!

The famous director Wu Yuan actually sent him an audition invitation!

And they even sent someone to pick him up in person!

If all this is not a dream, then he will definitely be very successful.

Peng Yuchang is not a fool.

He knows very well that since someone can come to him in person, the role he is auditioning for will not be a small role, at least it will be an important supporting actor, and it may even be the second male lead.

Well, even if he is dreaming, he never dared to think that he, a newcomer with no resume, can play the leading male role in Wu Yuan's new movie right away.

Even if his new movie is an art film or a low-cost drama, it is unlikely.

Look at who was the leading actor in Wu Yuan's last movie.

Huang Bo, the 3 billion box office actor!

The one before that is even more outrageous, it is Hollywood superstar Matt Damon!

The one before that is even directed and acted by himself!

Let's put it this way, even the artists signed by Wu Yuan's company have almost no chance to play the leading male role in Wu Yuan's movie.

He either works with big-name movie stars and international superstars, or with veteran actors and artists. Except for his public girlfriend Liu Yifei, he never works with "youngsters".

This is completely different from the situation where directors such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige like to use newcomers.

So Peng Yuchang only dares to imagine that there is a male No. 2 waiting for him.

And he must and must take this opportunity that may only come once in his life!

That afternoon, Peng Yuchang met Wu Yuan, who was alone, in the conference room on the top floor of Light and Shadow Times.

As soon as they met, Wu Yuan looked up and down carefully without concealing his emotions, and then said with satisfaction when he was so nervous that he couldn't control his slightly trembling emotions:

"Not bad, it fits the image in my mind."

"There is the youthful vigor of a young man!"

The male protagonist of "Ready Player One" has two faces.

In reality, he is an ordinary person living in a slum, shy, unsociable, and without a sense of existence.

But in "Oasis", he is a superhero in people's minds, confident, brave, witty, and quite popular.

It can be said that he is more real in "Oasis", or his personality is more extroverted, just like the 18-year-old young man.

And Peng Yuchang, who is only 18 or 19 years old this year, is the most "energetic" and "spirited" age.

It's just that he was nervous and nervous when facing Wu Yuan, a famous director.

"Raise your head, don't be so nervous."

Wu Yuan sat down with a smile and said with a bad taste: "If you are so nervous and can't show the feeling of youthful spirit, this audition will definitely not succeed."

Hearing this, even if he was nervous, Peng Yuchang raised his head stubbornly and looked at Wu Yuan bravely.

Young people are really a bit foolish and fearless.

If it were actors who have been working in this industry for 20 years, although they are still young, they would never dare to face Wu Yuan, and they would not have the courage.

This is the spirit that belongs to teenagers of 17 or 18 years old, daring to resist the world.

"Not bad."

"Come on, show your most confident and high-spirited state and act out this line."

Wu Yuan handed over a piece of paper with only one sentence written on it.

"You must know that when you were young, you had lofty ambitions and promised to be the best in the world."

At a glance, Peng Yuchang remembered this line.

Looking at Wu Yuan's playful smile, he took a deep breath, without even hesitating, and suddenly raised one hand and pointed to the sky, just like a lion that dared to raise its head and roar in the face of oppression from heaven and earth, and shouted in a clear and confident voice:

"You must know that when I was young, I had lofty ambitions and promised to be the best in the world."

In fact, he didn't shout loudly, the volume was just controlled to the level of speaking loudly, it was not a roar at all, let alone hysteria.

But it was precisely such a voice that Wu Yuan heard the confident and high-spirited youth from it.

It seemed that he who said this sentence would definitely succeed. This was not an expectation, but an affirmation.

It was not "I will succeed in the future and become the best in the world."

It was "I will definitely succeed and will definitely become the best in the world."

Yes, he is indeed a talented actor, very smart.

It was worth it that he deliberately stole a classic line from "The Sky of the Wind Dog Boy" to satisfy his bad taste.

Wu Yuan applauded generously: "Not bad, very talented."

"Congratulations, you are the male lead."

"Get ready, go sign a contract with the company, and by the way, sign your agency contract with the company."

"As for the script, I will send it to you within half a month."

"As for the specific start date, it should be before the New Year, at most after the New Year."

"Maybe this will be your last peaceful Spring Festival."

"Huh?!" Peng Yuchang was completely stunned when he heard this suddenly, and the string that had been stretched in his mind was completely broken.

"Me?!"

"Actor?!!!" (End of this chapter)
