China Entertainment Times 1999

Chapter 199 Qin Lan’s voice is hoarse! (Please subscribe!)

Two days later, in a conference room of a hotel in Beijing.

The crew of "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" conducts role auditions here.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, the corridor outside the conference room was packed with actors who came to audition with audition sheets in their hands.

Lin Xuan's new drama is bound to be a hit, which is very attractive to actors in the entertainment industry.

In the small room next door, Huang Xiaoming put on Luo Cheng's golden armor and chatted with Qin Lan.

"What's wrong with your voice? Your voice is a little hoarse."

Qin Lan flipped up his hair and explained with an unnatural expression: "I caught a cold two days ago. I caught a cold."

"Do you have a fever?"

Huang Xiaoming stretched out his hand to test the temperature of her forehead.

Qin Lan took half a step back, his hands hanging in the air awkwardly.

"I'm fine, just a little cold."

"I see, the weather has been very cold recently, so you should pay more attention to keeping warm."

"Thank you."

"Explain it to the judges after you get in. I hope it won't affect your audition."

"Yeah." Qin Lan smiled and nodded.

The door leading to the conference room was pushed open.

One actor walked out with his head down in frustration.

Huang Xiaoming and Qin Lan looked at each other, thinking that this person would probably lose the election.

The crew members started calling numbers:

"No. 7 Huang Xiaoming, go in for the interview. No. 8 Qin Lan, go to the locker room to change clothes."

"Xiaolan, I'll go in first."

"Well... come on."

Qin Lan extended his thumb to cheer him up.

Huang Xiaoming smiled evilly.

……

In the conference room, several crew members were sitting in front of the stage.

Huang Xiaoming glanced at it. There were representatives of the management, producers, screenwriters, directors, and supervisors.

"Hello teachers, my name is Huang Xiaoming, and I am auditioning for the role of Luo Cheng."

All the actors put on costumes and makeup for the audition.

The crew members listened to his self-introduction while observing his appearance and suitability for the role.

"Try these scenes."

Director Hu Mingkai selected several literary and martial arts dramas for him to perform.

Several creators watched carefully.

Compared with the previous audition actors, Huang Xiaoming's performance was pretty good.

In terms of literature and opera, he graduated from Nortel's major class and has a firm grasp of the four basic skills of voice, stage, shape and expression.

In terms of martial arts, he has filmed "The Best in the World", and several months of training have given him a good foundation.

At the end of the audition, the director said a few polite words.

After Huang Xiaoming left, everyone began to discuss.

"I think Huang Xiaoming is quite suitable. His acting and martial arts skills are both good."

"I agree. He has been very popular recently. He has acted in "The Emperor of Han Dynasty" and he is also one of the "four big and small students"."

"He also acted in Director Lin's "No. [-] in the World". When this drama is aired, it will definitely become more popular, which will help our drama."

"Look again, I don't think he is tall enough. He doesn't seem to be even [-] meters tall."

"Nowadays, the height of male actors is generally around 175cm, which makes it easier to play with actresses. Nie Yuan, who auditioned for Luo Cheng, was less than [-]m."

"Short means short. Director Lin is 185cm tall. Wouldn't it be great to play with an actress?"

As he talked, he brought up Lin Xuan again and explained:

"Director Hu is right. Nowadays, actors who are too tall do have an impact on accepting roles.

I am an exception and the actresses who play opposite me have to wear several layers of booster pads. "

"Then Huang Xiaoming can also wear a booster pad."

The main creators of the crew had different opinions and discussed for a long time with no result. In the end, Lin Xuan had to make the decision.

There were many actors who auditioned for Luo Cheng, but the only ones who were relatively satisfied were Nie Yuan and Huang Xiaoming.

Comparing the comprehensive abilities of the two, they are evenly matched, with each other winning or losing.

Nie Yuan's appearance is more suitable for Luo Cheng, but Huang Xiaoming is willing to pay [-] million for the role.

This scene is very similar to the scene where the two competed for Yang Guo a few years later.

In order to win the role, Nie Yuan did not hesitate to cut bones with a knife, and even joined the investor's company after the contract expired.

However, Huang Xiaoming realized that the talker on the crew was actually Zhang Jizhong, so he bribed Lao Zhang and successfully captured Yang Guo.

Lin Xuan pondered for a moment and then said: "Let's take another look! After all, Luo Cheng is the second male lead, so the casting cannot be careless. We can discuss it after everyone has finished auditioning."

"Okay, let's put it on hold for now."

Lin Xuan has decided to choose Huang Xiaoming.

But this tendency should not be too obvious, lest others notice it.

…………

A few minutes later, Qin Lan changed into costume and walked into the conference room.

As soon as she introduced herself, several judges frowned.

Hu Mingkai asked: "Why is your voice hoarse?"

Qin Lan glanced at Lin Xuan calmly and quickly explained: "I caught a cold two days ago."

Early spring is also the peak season for influenza, and several hospitals in Beijing are overcrowded.

After hearing her explanation, the judges didn't think much about it.

Lin Xuan lowered his head and laughed secretly in his heart.

In order to get the role of Li Rongrong, Qin Lan paid too much that night.

It’s not easy to even lose your voice.

After the audition ended and the actor left, everyone commented a few words as usual, and Lin Xuan also said a few good words for her.

In the revised new script, Li Rongrong is an insignificant supporting role.

Fan Xiaopang and the others lost interest after reading the script.

So it doesn’t matter who plays this role, as long as it’s not too outrageous.

Not only Fan Xiaopang, but also all the popular actresses did not come to audition.

By abstaining, they gave the new actors a chance to shine.

The crew auditioned several Li Rongrongs in succession.

Either she is a student at one of the three major universities, or she is an actress who is not very popular in the industry.

For example, in the original TV series, Tong Lei played Li Rongrong.

She was born in 80 and is the same age as Lin Xuan. She is still studying in theater and took time off specifically to audition.

Tong Lei's most famous role is Li Yunlong's second wife Tian Yu in "Bright Sword".

Character Quotes: Lao Li, be gentle to me!

Tong Lei's appearance is not particularly good-looking, and she looks like a heroine in a sad drama.

It is very suitable to play Li Rongrong, a girl with a tragic fate.

In the original TV series, when she was fucked by Yuwen Chengdu, the expression on her face was simply addictive.

It's a pity that Qin Lan paid too much for this role.

If there is no particularly good actress to audition, the role will most likely be hers.

In addition to Li Rongrong, there are also many actors who auditioned for Shan Bingbing.

This character has a cheerful personality, a clear distinction between love and hate, and looks like a tomboy all day long.

Although Shan Bingbing is the second female lead, her character is more likable than Li Rongrong, so more people came to audition than Li Rongrong.

After discussion, the crew wanted to choose an actress with a cold face and a slightly cooler look.

Among the actors who have been interviewed so far, Wang Likun, a second-year female student from Beijing Dance University, has a greater advantage.

There are martial arts scenes in single soldiers, and it is easier for actors with a background in dance to learn.

Wang Likun was born in 79. She has a delicate and beautiful appearance. Although she is only B, she is tall and has fair skin.

If the butterfly effect hadn't affected her.

In the second half of this year, she will be spotted by Mr. Xu and star in the TV series "Seven Swordsman".

After that, Wang Likun joined Ciwen Media and successively appeared in TV series such as "Agent Team No. 13" and "Beauty's Scheming", which can be regarded as tepid. What really made her famous was her participation in the Suzhou Satellite TV's Star Diving Variety Show in [-].

Wang Likun appeared in the show without makeup. Her white and tender skin made her popular and she was called the "goddess without makeup" by netizens.

Since then, her resources in the industry have improved a lot.

He appeared in the first season of "Running Man" and collaborated with Han Geng and Zheng Kai in the movie "The Story of My Ex".

The TV series "Across the Ocean to See You" co-produced with Zhu Yawen also achieved high ratings.

There were many actors who auditioned for Li Rongrong and Shan Bingbing, but there were only a few actors who auditioned for Concubine Xiao.

After Lin Xuan drastically changed the script, Concubine Xiao's role was pitiful and no one was interested.

In the original TV series, the crew actually found a commercial person to replace him.

Both appearance and acting skills are very average.

If he really can't find a suitable one, Lin Xuan can only find friends to make guest appearances.

Concubine Xiao's character in the play is similar to Daji Baosi.

The first thing he thought of was Li Xiaoran.

Thinking about it carefully, I feel really sorry for her.

She has paid a lot, but I just can't think of her in serious roles. They are all roles of this kind of coquettish beauty.

As for other supporting characters in the play, Lin Xuan uses the original lineup in principle.

…………

The audition ended a few days later, and the crew officially began discussing the role.

Those actors with background began to exert their efforts and contacted the crew and creators through various channels, hoping to win the role.

Unfortunately, with Lin Xuan here, their plans are doomed to fail.

The most important thing is that these people think about nothing every day.

He only talks the talk but has no actual actions at all, which is far worse than Huang Xiaoming.

Regarding the choice of Luo Cheng, Lin Xuan still chose Huang Xiaoming.

Even though their acting skills, martial arts skills, and looks are almost the same.

300 million is still very good.

As for Li Rongrong, characters like Li Yuanba are a matter of one sentence for him.

After the casting was over, the crew sent notices to the actors, asking them to come over and sign as soon as possible.

When Huang Xiaoming and Wang Baoqiang got the news, they both wanted to treat him to dinner to express their gratitude.

Qin Lan was more direct, asking Lin Xuan to go to the hotel and thanking him personally.

With three routes in front of him, he went to the hotel without hesitation.

They fought fiercely all night until dawn, and both sides were very satisfied with each other.

At this time, Lin Xuan's cell phone rang, and there was an extra 350 million in his account.

Huang Xiaoming's 300 million can be taken with peace of mind.

But in the end, the 50 yuan felt a bit hot.

Huang Xiaoming spends money to pick up girls.

But Lin Xuan was too greedy. He took the money and also took the people.

After finishing the work, Huang Xiaoming also wanted to say thank you to him.

The plot of the suffering master thanking the tauren is a bit outrageous.

This incident tells us a profound truth.

If you do something to the opposite sex, you must let the other person know clearly what you paid for it.

Brother Xiao Ming is a typical negative teaching material.

Not only does he love to play the role of a domineering president, he also has a bit of a domineering CEO in his life.

He spent money to buy Qin Lan a role, but he didn't know about it.

This behavior seems normal to Huang Xiaoming.

If you do something, tell the other person immediately, then the boss's authority will be gone.

Whether he said it directly or hinted, Huang Xiaoming would definitely tell Qin Lan in the future.

In order to prevent the secret from being exposed, Lin Xuan woke Qin Lan and told her about buying the character.

After hearing this, Qin Lan lay on the bed, dumbfounded.

Everyone is stupid!

No... Huang Xiaoming, you have a pig brain!

Since you spent money to buy the character, why didn't you tell me in advance?

In the car that day, she heard Huang Xiaoming say that Lin Xuan's audition was very strict.

Qin Lan was afraid of being rejected from the audition, so he chose to sacrifice himself, even at the cost of making his voice hoarse.

Although Lin Xuan was very skilled, he took her step by step to experience the feeling of flying into the clouds.

But this matter... No matter how you think about it, it's all your fault.

The only way to keep this secret is to make Qin Lan an accomplice.

Lin Xuan touched her long legs and suggested: "Huang Xiaoming gave me 50, how about we make five together?"

Hearing this, Qin Lan wanted to cry but had no tears.

It hurts and hurts, and I feel dumb and mute.

She had no other choice but to cooperate with Lin Xuan and completely conceal the matter.

"You are only twenty-five, I want thirty!"

"Okay, I'll give you thirty!"

Lin Xuan didn't care about the money, just spend [-] to sleep with her.

No, this seems to be a suspicion of price gouging.

Soon, the crew announced relevant information and cast of "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties".

This drama is jointly invested and produced by Dafu Culture and Lin Xuan Studio, with an investment amount of 3000 million.

In terms of actors, Lin Xuan plays Qin Shubao, Huang Xiaoming plays Luo Cheng, and Zheng Guolin plays Li Shimin.

Wang Baoqiang plays Li Yuanba, Shi Xiaolong plays Pei Yuanqing, Qin Lan plays Li Rongrong, Wang Likun plays Shan Bingbing...

The announcement of a long list of actors immediately attracted widespread attention from the media and netizens.

The history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties is still very popular in the mainland, and its discussion is second only to the Three Kingdoms.

In addition to the plot of this drama, everyone is also paying close attention to the actors.

As we all know, Lin Xuan especially likes to use handsome boys and beautiful girls in the dramas he stars in.

If you want to know which good-looking newcomers have appeared in the entertainment industry, you only need to watch Lin Xuan's drama.

The audience affectionately called it "Lin Xuan's Strict Selection"!

So Qin Lan and Wang Likun's information was quickly dug out.

The audience saw the photos in the newspaper and thought that these two people were really beautiful.

…………

At the end of the month, the entire crew gathered in Hengdian for a script reading session and training in martial arts routines.

The training during the day is very hard. As long as the actors have martial arts scenes, they have to practice their movements over and over again every day. At the end of the day, they will suffer from various backaches.

Of course, when everyone is feeling down, Lin Xuan will invite them out to dinner, exchange feelings, and relax.

After a few days, everyone has become acquainted with each other a lot, including those who work in Hong Kong.

Since joining the crew, Huang Xiaoming officially launched an offensive against Qin Lan.

They were asking for help, buying medicine and water, and everyone in the crew saw it.

But the strange thing is that Qin Lan is somewhat resistant to his pursuit and has been avoiding him.

This puzzled Huang Xiaoming.

In terms of popularity, he is one of the top four.

In terms of appearance, he is not bad either.

Not to mention treating her well.

In fact, Qin Lan's feelings for him are very complicated.

When they were filming "Huan Zhu Ge Ge 3", the two had a certain affection for each other.

As long as we stay in contact for a while, this matter will basically be done.

However, Lin Xuan crossed his legs at this moment!

After experiencing that incident, Qin Lan felt that his whole body was broken.

She complained that Huang Xiaoming was stupid and was afraid that he would know the truth.

So I can only choose to escape!
