93. Self-Cultivation of Men Who Live Off Their Husbands

The audition was at 1pm. Zhong Li got on his own car and left half an hour early because there would be other actors at the audition. If Yan Chu and Zhong Li appeared together, it would have a bad influence on him.

The relationship between the two is different from before. Yan Chu is innocent and straightforward. Zhong Li unconsciously thought more about him. The agent he arranged for him is also a well-known ace agent in the circle.

"You must be Yan Chu, right? I'm your agent Song Fei."

He looked at the slightly immature boy in front of him. Mr. Zhong suddenly handed a newcomer to him. He was not very satisfied at first, but seeing that Mr. Zhong lived with the man in front of him, this dissatisfaction was reduced.

You know, there are so many young actors in the company, and Mr. Zhong has never been involved in those gossips.

The man in front of him ran to Mr. Zhong's bed without saying a word, and even asked Mr. Zhong to take the trouble to get him an audition for Director He's new film. His scheming and means should not be underestimated.

Song Fei is not afraid of his subordinates being too thoughtful, but he is afraid that they are not thoughtful. In this circle, how can you climb up without some tricks.

Yan Chu is now favored by Mr. Zhong, which means that there will be no shortage of films sent to him in the future, and various activities and exposure will follow one after another. As an agent, he does not need to think too much about finding resources for the other party, which saves a lot of effort.

As long as the person in front of him can grasp the most important exposure period, even if Mr. Zhong is indifferent to him later, he can promote him with that little face and his face.

The agent's commission is linked to the income of the actor. The more popular the artist under his hand is, the more money he earns, and the more the agent's commission will naturally be. No one will complain about the small amount of money.

Song Fei's dissatisfaction is almost gone. He happily thinks about how to discuss with the promotion department. In the future, he should be the key support of Tianqi.

Yan Chu knows the chubby man in front of him who looks very approachable.

He is a smiling Buddha in the entertainment industry, with high skills and many friends. He has handled many crisis public relations. As long as the artists under his control do not commit suicide, they almost do not have to worry about their scandals and black materials being spread on the Internet.

Zhong Li handed himself over to this person, obviously taking into account the relationship between the two.

The original body in the previous life did not have this luck. His agent was not bad, but compared with Song Fei, there was a difference between heaven and earth.

It seems that I am still more favored?

He changed into a black and gray striped shirt and tied a dark red bow tie for himself. He sprayed some gel on his hands and grabbed the clean and fluffy hair back. A strand of disobedient curls hung at the peak of his eyebrows. When his eyebrows were tilted, he was full of frivolity.

The third young master Chen in the script appeared in the mirror.

Song Fei, who was standing behind Yan Chu, naturally did not miss the expression of the other party just now. As smart as he was, he immediately knew what the other party meant. This was to show him his strength.

Song Fei was able to climb to his current position, of course, not by luck.

He was very careful and had read all the information about Yan Chu before coming, including the script excerpt for his audition.

Before coming, like most people, he was not optimistic that Yan Chu could win the new movie directed by He.

There were many veteran actors in this audition. Chen Sanye's character was quite outstanding. In the early stage, he mostly appeared as a playboy, but in the later stage, he died on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War. The huge contrast between the before and after, if he played well, he would definitely win the applause of the whole house.

The competition was too fierce. Song Fei didn't think Yan Chu could win at the beginning. His original plan was to promote Yan Chu to traffic. It would be a pity if his face didn't become popular. Looking at the aura of the other party that suddenly changed in an instant, it was as if Chen Sanye in the script appeared in front of him.

Song Fei felt that his original plan might be changed.

Laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway. As an agent, he certainly couldn't fully evaluate Yan Chu's acting skills, so he planned to wait until the audition was over before making a decision.

*****

"Qu Jianglin is here too. Which role is he trying out for?"

"I don't know. There's also Zhang Yingdi. I just saw him go in. With his status, he should be trying out for the leading role, right?"

When Yan Chu followed Song Fei in, the waiting room was noisy. He saw many familiar faces, all of whom often appeared in TV dramas.

"Look at Song Fei. Is the one he's with a newcomer? I haven't seen him before."

"Song Fei, will he also take on newcomers?"

If Yan Chu appeared alone, it wouldn't be noticeable, but with Song Fei standing next to him, it attracted a lot of attention.

As an ace agent, Song Fei basically has first- and second-tier stars in his hands. He shouldn't let a newcomer like Yan Chu take care of him. It's a bit of a waste of talent.

Everyone present realized that this person was probably the newcomer that Tianqi was promoting. He's new film was the biggest sponsor of Tianqi. They didn't know what role the other party was trying out for. If they bumped into each other, it would be mysterious.

Now we can only pray that Director He will pay enough attention to this transformational work of his, and don't let investors casually insert such an unknown person, otherwise it will be very annoying.

For a moment, Yan Chu was filled with a lot of unfriendly and implicit hostility.

"You have to get used to it. In this circle, being envied by others means that you are popular."

With Yan Chu's current status, he can forget about having an independent lounge. Song Fei accompanied Yan Chu to find a corner seat and sat down, and said in his ear.

Yan Chu did not comment, took out the script and read it carefully again.

Seeing that he was concentrating, Song Fei did not disturb him, got up to chat with his colleagues, and took a look at the current situation.

"There are many people competing with you for Chen Sanye. The biggest opponent should be Qu Jianglin from Juxing. He just won the Best Supporting Actor in Wanhua not long ago, and the momentum is good. Another one is Liu Tao from Wanyi. However, Liu Tao is a little older, which does not match the image of Chen Sanye when he first appeared, who was only seventeen years old and youthful and rebellious. However, his acting skills have been recognized by many directors, and the other party has cooperated with Director He three times, and they have a tacit understanding. Director He may favor him."

Song Fei communicated with Yan Chu responsibly about the news he had inquired about, and Yan Chu also followed his instructions and saw two male actors who were also waiting in the lounge.

It seems that the other party also inquired about him, and their eyes met in the air.

Qu Jianglin looked a bit aloof, and vaguely resembled Chen Sanye at a certain period. The other party looked at him with some contempt and disdain. Yan Chu thought that maybe the other party had also found out what role he was going to audition for.

The newcomer versus the best supporting actor of Wanhua, it seemed clear who would win and who would lose.

Liu Tao looked very amiable, and nodded at him. It was just that he was indeed a little older as Song Fei said, and he seemed to be in his thirties. Playing the seventeen-year-old Chen Sanye, there seemed to be some difference in appearance.

Among the three, Qu Jianglin was the first to go in, and stayed in there for about ten minutes, which was considered to be the longest time among so many actors who auditioned.

When he came out, he couldn't hide his satisfaction between his eyebrows, and he looked at him several times, as if he had already secured this role.

Liu Tao went in shortly after him, and the other party also stayed for about the same time. When he came out, his expression was almost the same as when he went in. This is what an old senior is like, he can handle it.

With these two people, the other actors who auditioned for Chen Sanye should have been under a lot of pressure. When they came out, they were almost all frowning. Yan Chu was arranged last.

"You are auditioning for Chen Sanye, right? Just act directly, no need to introduce."

The previous delay was long, Yan Chu had already gone, and the stage manager said this to him directly, and then pushed him in.

In front of him was a stage with scenery already set up, and opposite the stage, there was a row of people sitting.

He An and Zhong Li sat in the middle, and naturally the most conspicuous.

In addition, there were several investors. Yan Chu noticed that the movie emperor Zhang Tianze was also sitting in the interview seat. It seemed that his position as the male lead had been decided.

His eyes stayed on Zhong Li for a little longer, because he was a newcomer to Tianqi, and it was not abrupt to look at his boss.

The script Yan Chu received showed the second female in the play, that is, the scene where Mrs. Chen, whom he admired, died. This scene was a test of the actor's acting skills.

There was no actress to play with, so Yan Chu simply regarded the group of interviewers as his sister-in-law in the script.

"Sister-in-law."

In the empty room, even such a whisper-like voice echoed faintly.

In the center of the stage, the young man in a neat suit lowered his head. No one could see his expression at this moment, but the tangled swings in his body, the despair and pain brewed by morality and love, were fully displayed in front of all the audience only by body language and that line.

He An originally sat in a more relaxed posture. As soon as Yan Chu said the first sentence, he couldn't help but sit up straight and lean forward slightly, obviously interested in Yan Chu.

"The peach blossoms outside are blooming. When you are in a better mood, I will take you out to see."

In front of him seemed to be a woman with a weak body and a weak breath.

Yan Chu stretched out his hand to hold the other's hand, with blue veins bulging, almost skin and bones, but in his eyes, that was the most beautiful pair of hands in the world.

He raised his head, his eyes were full of admiration and tenderness, as well as the strong love and heartache buried deep under the disguise.

"Brother went out to check the accounts and will be back soon."

He couldn't tell the poor woman that her beloved husband was with another woman when she was dying.

That woman was so smart that she knew where her husband, who was sleeping with her but dreaming differently, was at this moment without her brother-in-law telling her.

She was an open-minded woman. She changed the subject. Her already poor health made it difficult for her to say a word, but she wanted to say that some things could never be said again.

She told the young man who had always been by her side that she would not live long and it was a pity that she could not see him marry and have children. The young man told her that she would see it.

She said that she had only loved one man in her life, but that man did not love her.

The young man wanted to tell her that there was also a man who loved her all his life, but he was too cowardly to tell her.

Zhong Li knew that the other party was acting and was playing another person, but he still couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

In the end, the woman asked the young man to take her to the window. She hadn't seen the color of the sky for a long time.

The young man carried her to the recliner by the window and half-knelt beside her.

The woman sang a little song, which she sang to him when he was a child to coax him to sleep.

As she sang, the song stopped.

The suppressed sobs gradually became louder and louder. The judges below couldn't help but tear up when they saw the young man crying on the stage.

The more he suppressed, the more intense it became.

From beginning to end, his expression was calm. Except for his eyes, his expression, and the tone of his voice, they all seemed to be telling a plain story like "the weather is good today".

But it was those eyes that suppressed too many emotions that made this plainness more gripping, until the moment of the final explosion, when all the emotions burst out.

"Pa pa pa."

He An stood up and applauded Yan Chu. He was quite satisfied with Qu Jianglin and Liu Tao's performances before, but for some reason, he just lacked that feeling, and he found this feeling in Yan Chu.

The role of Mr. Chen San is both extroverted and introverted. He is unrestrained and wanders in the midst of decadence, but he is also introverted. He is so secretive about his feelings for his eldest sister-in-law that he dare not let anyone notice.

Even when Mrs. Chen was dying, he still didn't dare to let her know his thoughts. He was afraid that he would become a trouble for her, so the Chen Sanye played by Yan Chu was very quiet, so quiet that it was scary.

He An didn't know how to express his excitement. He felt that he had found the Chen Sanye he wanted.

"That's him."

He An almost decided on this role without thinking.

Liu Tao and he had a good personal relationship, but it was a bit difficult for him to play Chen Sanye at his age. He An planned to leave him a small supporting role that was relatively less important but also quite outstanding.

As for Qu Jianglin, he was indeed pretty good before Yan Chu appeared, but in comparison, Qu Jianglin's arrogance was not so liked by He An.

Before transforming into an acting school, Qu Jianglin was a professional in idol dramas with many young fans. He An was also worried that Qu Jianglin would bring the bad habits spoiled by fans to the set, and there were too many scandals about him, which was not a stable factor.

After weighing the pros and cons, he felt that Yan Chu was the best.

"Director He, this Chen Sanye is an important role. I don't think it's a good idea to let such an unknown newcomer take on this responsibility."

One of the investors was attracted by Qu Jianglin's fame. In his opinion, Qu Jianglin's acting was not bad. The most important thing was that he had many fans. When the box office contribution came, wouldn't it depend on who had a higher box office appeal?

"That's right. You said that this play needs to be filmed in a real scene. This will cost a lot of money. I think Qu Tianlin is better."

The investors have their own concerns. The director wants to win awards, and they want to make money. This is essentially a conflict.

After listening to the words of those investors, He An's face darkened.

"Boss Zhang, Boss Mao, you know how much I value this film. I won't joke about my own brand. Besides, isn't the guarantee of Zhang the movie emperor enough for you?"

In the past commercial films, he might have chosen Qu Tianlin, who has good acting skills and huge popularity, but this film is different. Since he has the best, he doesn't want to pick up a defective product.

"Director He, it seems that Yinmeng has a schedule after that. I think she might be suitable for the role of Mrs. Chen."

Zhong Li saw that her little man acted so well, but was still despised. She forgot how she used to invest in movies, and gave him a chance without thinking.

The Chu Yinmeng she mentioned is one of the four big flowers in China. She is the winner of the three major domestic awards and the only actress in China who has been selected for the Oscar. Her status is so high that it cannot be compared with the little flowers that come out later.

The other party has been famous for many years, and now only plays the leading role. She doesn't even look down on ordinary roles.

But since Zhong Li has spoken, it means that the other party has grasped the role of Mrs. Chen.

Other investors are also happy to hear this. With the best actor and the best actress, who would worry about the lack of box office appeal of this movie?

Of course, after Zhong Li spoke, they also realized that this newcomer was from Tianqi. Zhong Li was standing up for his own people, but it was still worthwhile to exchange Qu Jianglin for Chu Yinmeng. Besides, He An himself had taken a fancy to the newcomer. If he insisted on going against him, it would not be good if the relationship became strained.

Several investors who had originally asked Qu Jianglin did not say anything against it, and the result was settled.

******

"Hello."

The result of the audition was to be notified separately. Yan Chu left directly after the interview. He knew that Zhong Li would return to the company at that time, so he simply went to the other party's company to wait for her.

Before the car drove downstairs of the company, Yan Chu received a call, and the three big words "Dear" were clearly written on the caller ID.

Because the company's nanny car and some assistants were not fully equipped, Song Fei, the big economic man, was wronged to be the driver of the newcomer. When Yan Chu took out his mobile phone, he naturally saw the three words on it.

"Sister Li."

Zhong Li on the other end of the phone heard the other party's address and immediately knew that there was someone else around him now.

She cut to the chase and told Yan Chu the good news that he was chosen, but she didn't mention her contribution.

After hanging up the phone, Song Fei didn't ask who called him, but his cell phone rang. He was already in the company's parking garage at this time. Song Fei took out his cell phone and saw that it was the president's secretary.

Now he knew that the caller with the intimate note on Yan Chu's phone was definitely President Zhong, and also, Sister Li, who else could there be besides Zhong Li?

It was obvious that he could have asked his secretary to notify him in a few minutes, but Mr. Zhong, who was busy with all kinds of things, called the person himself. It seemed that this artist under his command was more liked by Mr. Zhong than he thought.

******

"How is this possible? Is it Liu Tao? He and He An have worked together several times. He doesn't even look at how old he is. How can he play a 17-year-old boy?"

Qu Jianglin also knew the result of the audition. He thought the role was a sure thing, but now he was told that it was taken by someone else. Where would he put his face?

"It's not him. It's a newcomer from Tianqi. It seems that he is a student of the Film Academy. There was no news before. Could it be Tianqi's secret weapon?"

Qu Jianglin's agent also looked unhappy. His artist was robbed of the role by a newcomer. What's the point of telling others that his artist's acting skills are not as good as a newcomer?

"It's him!"

Qu Jianglin slammed his fist on the table, scaring his agent.

"Why, do you know him?"

Looking at the expression of his own artist, he seemed to have a bad impression of the newcomer.

"He's just a high-class duck, thinking that he can climb over my head by hooking up with Zhong Li."

Qu Jianglin was full of hatred. He was also hooking up with a rich woman. The sponsor behind him was almost fifty years old this year, and he still liked to play the role of a woman on top. The weight of nearly two hundred pounds pressed on him, and the foundation and eyeshadow on his face were smudged by sweat, just like an old witch, but he had to pretend to enjoy it.

He spent the best acting skills of his life on this matter.

And Yan Chu, Zhong Li is only twenty-nine this year, with a hot body and a good face. Let such a cold woman in front of others lick him and show a slutty expression. Even if it's not for resources and status, he is willing to let such a cold woman in front of others lick him and show a slutty expression. Being kept by a woman like Zhong Li is simply a double gain of wealth and beauty.

Qu Jianglin believes that he is better than Yan Chu, so why is he not as good as the other party.

"Are you serious?"

His agent doesn't believe it. Why didn't he hear the news?

Qu Jianglin's face froze. He couldn't tell the other party that he used to work at Blue, but later he hooked up with this rich woman, got double eyelids, a nose job, and bone shaving, and appeared in front of people with a completely changed appearance. This news was told to him by his former friend.

Blue's management is very strict, and the power behind it is unimaginable. If he lets it slip, he will offend more than one or two people.

"It was the mysterious male version of Mr. Zhong reported in the tabloids at the golden wedding dinner of Mr. Gao Bi Gao and Mr. Zhang. That person is Yan Chu. Think about it, when have you seen Zhong Li with a male companion? And this time Zhong Li is the biggest investor. It's not easy for her to get the position of the third male."

Qu Jianglin gritted his teeth when he said this. His acting skills have been recognized by audiences across the country. Yan Chu is nothing, snatching the role from him.

"Don't worry, I'll find a way to deal with this matter."

His agent gritted his teeth. Like Qu Jianglin, he is very optimistic about Director He's film, especially the role of Mr. Chen Sanye. The tragic ending will definitely attract some fans.

Juxing and Tianqi are from different camps. No matter what means are used, as long as it does not involve President Zhong, she may not stand up for her little wolfdog. At that time, as long as the other party's image is damaged, He An attaches so much importance to this movie, and the other party should know what to do for the reputation of the movie.
