Chapter 679 Audition in Progress
After entering the room, director Mai Yingjie came up to him immediately.
His face was full of smiles, and he shook hands with Luoyang and said, "Luo Da, we haven't seen each other for more than a year."
Luoyang smiled and said, "It's true that we haven't seen each other for so long, but I will not forget you when something good happens. I hope that this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" can be presented to the audience with the best quality, so I'm sorry to bother you."
"Don't worry, Luo Da, I'll do my best!"
Mai Yingjie patted his chest and promised. He knew very well that Luoyang gave him "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to shoot, firstly because of the relationship between "Nirvana in Fire" and "Battle of the Forbidden City", and secondly because he wanted to promote himself.
After all, this drama is being watched by people all over the country.
There are countless big directors who want to shoot this drama and whose strength is not inferior to Mai Yingjie.
So at this moment, Mai Yingjie was sincerely grateful to Luoyang, and he wanted to give his body to him. Under such circumstances, he would naturally use 200% of his strength to shoot the much-anticipated "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!
"Okay, let's let the actors audition first."
Xiao Yan spoke up. Those waiting outside were all popular domestic stars, so they naturally couldn't be treated like ordinary actors.
Luoyang nodded, and sat at the table with Xiao Yan and Mai Yingjie. The audition was in charge of the three of them, and the main roles of today's audition were Yang Kang and Mu Nianci, who were supporting roles with more scenes.
Xiao Yan and Mai Yingjie knew it in their hearts.
In this position, the only person who can really decide on the actors is Luoyang.
However, the two of them were not unhappy because Luoyang's vision in selecting actors surprised them, as if Luoyang knew clearly what kind of role image he needed before the TV series was released.
The first person to audition was a second-tier actress.
Although the role of Mu Nianci is important, it is not enough for first-tier actresses to audition.
After the second-tier actress greeted him, Mai Yingjie asked the actress to read a line. As a professional actress, her lines are naturally not bad. However, when the actress finished reading the lines, Luoyang suddenly spoke.
"What did Mu Nianci wear when she first appeared in The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"
The actress was stunned and stammered, "White, white clothes..."
Luoyang nodded, and Xiao Yan immediately figured out the meaning and said, "Go back and wait for news."
The actress could only leave helplessly, not knowing whether she guessed correctly. Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Luo Da, although I have watched The Legend of the Condor Heroes, I don't remember what Mu Nianci wore when she first appeared."
Luoyang smiled and said, "Mu Nianci first appeared in a martial arts competition to recruit a husband, and she wore a red shirt and a red skirt."
Then he said, "It's not that I'm unreasonable. This actress's acting skills are also okay, but her appearance is so... The image is different from the description in the book. I don't want to reject her because of this, so I give her a chance. If she knows Mu Nianci in The Legend of the Condor Heroes very well, I will consider it even if the image is not similar. "
"I see."
"Mu Nianci is gentle and shy, and she is very cute with the shyness of a girl. "
After Mai Yingjie finished speaking, Luoyang said: "Indeed, this is the image that Mu Nianci needs, the feeling of a lady from a noble family. Seeing that Director Mai has done some research on the characters in The Legend of the Condor Heroes, I am more assured about this drama. "
"To be honest with you, Luoyang, I have watched The Legend of the Condor Heroes three times recently in order to make it well. "
Mai Yingjie was quite proud of this. Luoyang chose him as the director, so he naturally wanted to let Luoyang see his serious attitude.
Luoyang nodded, and then auditioned several actresses. Unfortunately, these auditioners either did not match the image or had insufficient acting skills. It was not until the eighth auditioner appeared that Luoyang was slightly cheered up.
Because Xiao Yan quietly told Luoyang that this was an artist of Star Media.
This is a girl who is about 18 years old.
After entering the room, the girl bowed to Luoyang and the others, and then introduced herself: "Hello, three teachers. My name is Yue Meng. I am a student who just graduated from Tiandu Art College this year. I am 18 years old this year."
Luoyang said: "The way Mu Nianci cried."
The girl was stunned at first, and then she understood what Luoyang meant. She took a breath, then frowned deeply, her eyes were faintly tearful, but they never fell. She looked so pitiful that it broke people's hearts.
Luoyang nodded and asked, "Have you seen The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"
Luoyang nodded, and the girl's face flashed a hint of surprise: "I have seen it."
This answer made Luoyang look a little more satisfied: "Then tell me, what kind of personality is Mu Nianci?"
After thinking quietly, the girl said, "She is kind by nature, gentle on the outside and strong on the inside, strong in personality, smart, kind-hearted, upright, and has her own dignity. She is loyal to love until death, and she is deeply in love with Yang Kang. She is a rare infatuated woman in the world."
"Okay, you go back and wait for the news from the crew."
Xiao Yan and Mai Yingjie looked at each other. It seems that Yue Meng is satisfied, because when he said this, Luoyang had a smile on his face. This was the first time that Luoyang showed a happy smile in the audition today.
"Thank you, Teacher Luoyang, thank you, teachers!"
Yue Meng also vaguely felt that she seemed to have performed well. After bowing, she left excitedly.
After Yue Meng left, Luoyang said: "This is not bad. Let's take a look at the performance of the remaining ones first."
Although he is more optimistic about Yue Meng, Luoyang still plans to continue the audition. After all, it would be unfair to the remaining actors waiting to cast Yue Meng directly. Maybe there are more capable actors waiting behind?
It turns out that Luoyang thought too much.
The next few auditionees did not perform as well as Yue Meng.
Finally, Luoyang wrote the word "Yue Meng" on the paper, and Mu Nianci's role was basically finalized.
"Take a break before auditioning Yang Kang?" Mai Yingjie asked.
Luoyang waved his hand: "No rest, let's go straight to the audition. The time of these artists is precious."
Xiao Yan sneered: "No matter how precious the time of these celebrities is, can it be as valuable as the time of Luo University?"
As the top second generation in the country, Xiao Yan does not take celebrities seriously.
"You still look down on celebrities?" Luoyang rolled his eyes at him.
Xiao Yan was stunned, then thought of a rumored girlfriend in Luoyang, and quickly waved his hands and said: "Don't dare, don't you know, Luo Da, I am usually very interested in listening to music, especially our queen Liu Qin songs..."
Luoyang ignored Liu Qin's words and continued the audition.
Interestingly, the first person to audition for the role of Yang Kang today was Yi Bai, whom Luoyang met once at the door.
