Who are you calling powerful?

Chapter 7
"Don't talk nonsense, I've given you a short biography of the character, it's up to you whether you can succeed, don't point at me to help you, it won't work, I'm also humble here.

In addition, don't spread nonsense at school and keep a low profile. Okay, I'm still busy here, so I'll hang up first. "

After hanging up the phone and putting away the PHS, Wei Yang turned and entered the conference room, and continued to look through photos and resumes with Liu Junjie and the assistant director.

Contrary to layman's imagination, tens of thousands of resumes and photos are put together and screened by only a few people. There is no way to compare them one by one and check them carefully.

Therefore, except for some key objects that have been marked in advance.

Resumes are hardly read unless you can make it to the final rounds.

In the first few rounds, they basically only looked at the photos. Each person held a stack in their right hand, and their left hand kept brushing and flying downwards, like sliced ​​noodles. Each photo stayed on the retina for an average of one second, or even less than half a second. time.

If you leave an impression on the screeners, you will be drawn out to enter the next round, and if you can't keep it, you will be eliminated directly.

It's that cruel!

Every newcomer actor who entered the industry has cast hundreds of photos for the crew, and 99% of them are destined to be trash cans and shredders.

"The Best of Us" has only received hundreds of photos so far, and the workload is limited, so it is not that exaggerated.

Although the screening speed is still very fast, it can also stay for a short second or two, enough to see everyone's face clearly.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but Wei Yang happened to have the photos of the students from the Acting Department in Shanghai.

From freshman to senior year, from grade 2006 to grade 2003, there are less than 200 students in the Acting Department of Shanghai, and there are probably more than 100 photos in Wei Yang's hands.

Amazing proportions!

With some mixed feelings, Wei Yang began to screen out, and there were quite a few acquaintances, with the most in 2004.

Hailu, Li Jinming, Zhao Ji, Zheng Kai, Chen Chichi, Du Jiang, Wang Xiaochen, Wang Chuanjun, Jiang Shuying...

It is worthy of being a famous star class, and the proportion of high-ranking students almost beats the other three classes.

For example, in class 2003, Wei Yang is almost not familiar with them. There is a Jin family in class 2005, and his class in class 2006 is not much better.

In addition to Li Jiahang, Hu Yifei and Lou Yixiao from "Love Apartment", there is also Wei Qianxiang who has played many supporting roles. He is not popular in dramas, and Wei Yang might not remember him if he was not in the same class.

As for He Linfeng and Ma Xin.Wei Yang didn't hear about them in his previous life, so he probably lost sight of them all.

Many people often talk about their background in majors, and the three major art schools of Nortel Chinese Opera and Shanghai Opera, but they know their own hardships.

There are only a small number of those who make it to the top, and they can even stay in this industry, and they are capable if they can eat as actors. The vast majority of people are forced by reality and can only choose to work behind the scenes or simply change careers.

This topic is embarrassing to talk about, but it doesn't affect Wei Yang's screening criteria.

The eliminated photos flew onto the table one by one...

Just kidding, Wei Yang himself is still bowing his head like a grandson, so what right does he have to sympathize with others, except for his three roommates who made a false public benefit, others deal with it fairly.

In the end, about [-] pictures were selected, and Liu Junjie made a final decision: "That's all, divide them into categories according to roles, and then call the phone number left on the photo to notify each one, and come to audition on weekends."

Before he finished speaking, the staff brought in a bunch of resumes and photos.

"This is pushed by many companies and brokers."

Wei Yang picked up a few and looked at them: "The artists in the capital are also voting here?"

The assistant director next to him stretched his waist, not surprised: "The mainland film and television companies are concentrated in the capital and Shanghai. There are many monks and few food, and they will swarm up wherever there is trouble. As long as you can hear the letter, it is not difficult to send a photo."

"Too."

Wei Yang understood it, and compared his heart to heart, if he heard that there was a production crew in Beijing recruiting actors, and he was qualified, he would find a way to ask someone to post a photo.

It can't be overthrown, but if you get an audition opportunity, it is estimated that many people are willing to come from afar to give it a try.

The competition in the big environment is fierce, so as long as there is a slight chance to get ahead, there are many people who are willing to bet.

Liu Junjie is getting old and has limited energy, take a break, Wei Yang and the assistant director continue to pick.

"Ok?"

Seeing a photo suddenly, Wei Yang paused, and put it in the place to be selected. Under the incandescent light in the office, a girl with a ball head and baby fat on her cheeks was smiling in the photo.

...

a few days later, the weekend
The Venus Hotel next to the Blue Whale Company, where the crew of "The Best of Us" rented a small hall for a week-long audition.

"Okay, thank you everyone, go back and wait for our notice."

"Thank you teachers."

Several people bowed and left, and the executive producer couldn't help complaining: "Didn't you do your homework before the audition? You know it's a school drama, and you've got yellow hair, and you're playing a young lady."

"Okay, there's no need to get angry, that fat man is okay, to be determined, forget the rest."

Liu Junjie has been in the industry for decades, and he has been trained for a long time, so he doesn't take this matter to heart at all, so he glanced at his watch lightly.

"It's been more than two hours, everyone take a 10-minute break."

Sun Wei was bored for a long time, and immediately got up after hearing the words: "Go, Xiao Wei, go out and take a stick."

Nodding with Liu Junjie, Wei Yang got up and followed them out, went to the toilet first, and came to the stair passage, each of them lit a stick, and vomited.

Wei Yang usually doesn't smoke, unless he is really out of inspiration when he is rushing to finish the manuscript, so he can light up a couple of cigarettes to relax.

However, when going out, smoking and drinking are entertainments, and he will not refuse them.

Sun Wei was addicted to cigarettes, so he smoked one and took it out again, Wei Yang waved his hand: "I'll do it, you smoke first, I'll go to the upper window to breathe, the room is too stuffy."

"Go."

Sun Wei knew that Wei Yang had no addictions, so he didn't force it. The latter went upstairs, found a window, and felt the fresh air while thinking about the candidate just now.

"Wei Yang?!"

A cry of surprise awakened Wei Yang, who was in a state of ecstasy, and when he turned around, he saw that they were all acquaintances.

Li Jinming, Zheng Kai, Zhao Ji, and Chen Chichi from the 04th grade mentioned just now, and Lou Yixiao and Cai Die from the same 06th grade music class.

"Just now Xiaoxiao saw Ma Xin and the others, and thought you weren't here."

"I came early, so I wasn't with them."

Wei Yang didn't say directly, except for Lou and Cai, he was actually not very familiar with this group of people, but Li Jiahang played well with them, and even brought him to meet them several times.

Every time we meet, it's like traveling into the world of "Love Apartment" for a meeting.

It was the same today, Zeng Xiaoxian, Hu Yifei, Wan Yu, and Meijia all came together, which made Wei Yang feel a little bit out of time and space.

"Who are you interviewing? Male lead, you are so handsome, you have great hopes."

Li Jinming asked curiously. She has a lively personality, a bit like the Mika she played in "Love Apartment", but she is not as sloppy and bold as Mijia. Wei Yang has a good impression of her.

"I tried Lu Xinghe, the second male."

"Lu Xinghe?"

Zhao Ji, with a gentle personality, lowered his head and flipped through the audition information sheet issued by the crew: "There is no such role."

Wei Yang explained: "This role is quite special, and it will not be announced to the public for the time being."

Cai Die said pleasantly: "Then you have a great chance."

The young Lou Yixiao looked at Wei Yang with a blushing face. Her realistic personality was completely different from that of Hu Yifei played in "Love Apartment". She is quiet and introverted, a soft girl.

"Congratulations, Brother Yang."

Even Li Jinming and Zhao Ji gave congratulations and appreciation. Wei Yang is fair and handsome, and it is easy to win the favor of girls. More importantly, the two sides have no direct competition.

Classmates/students/+friends succeed, it is still very gratifying.

The girls surrounded Wei Yang and laughed and talked about Yan Yan, and the two boys who were walking together felt a little uncomfortable.

Chen Chichi is fine, his EQ is higher, Zheng Kai has a bit of a temper, he can't understand Wei Yang being so sought after, so he couldn't help but make a stab.

"Isn't it undecided? What are you showing off, don't let the bamboo basket fetch water in vain."

As soon as these words came out, Li and Zhao were a little embarrassed, but they were classmates after all, so it was hard to say too much.

Cai Die, Lou Yixiao, Li Jinming, and Chen Chichi have a good relationship, and they are just ordinary friends with Zheng Kai, and this time they are traveling together because of the other two.

In their hearts, Wei Yang, who is in the same class and has a good relationship, must have more weight.

Especially Lou Yixiao, who was more or less careful about Wei Yang, even though his personality was quiet, his face was flushed with anger at this moment.

"can you speak!"

Cai Die's temper was even hotter, and she directly said: "That's better than you, if you can't eat grapes, say grapes are sour."

"What did you say…"

Zheng Kai was furious, and was about to step forward, Wei Yang directly pulled Cai Die and Lou Yixiao behind him, faced Zheng Kai, and looked at him coldly.

"Fuck off!"

Wei Yang's height is exactly 180. He is not strong, but he is also slender and well-proportioned. Zheng Kai's height is unknown to the outside world, but he is obviously shorter than Wei Yang.

As soon as the two met, they lost first in terms of momentum.

More importantly, Wei Yang, who is reliable, doesn't mind fucking him, but Zheng Kai has concerns and dare not make a move, which seems a bit harsh and inward.

"It's all from the same school, don't let outsiders see the joke."

Seeing the confrontation between the two sides, Chen Chichi immediately came over to stop him, Li Jinming and the other two also came to pull Zheng Kai, who went down the donkey along the slope, and was dragged away with an angry face.

"I'm sorry, buddy,"

Chen Chichi knew how to be a human being, and even came here to apologize. Cai Die was a little angry, and parted ways with the main team, choosing to audition together.

Glancing at Sun Wei who was waving at him after smoking, Wei Yang whispered,
"Don't try Jiang Niannian."

Then he waved to Cai and Lou, hurriedly joined Sun Wei, and returned to the meeting room together.
