Chapter 129 It’s Just You, the Crooked Dragon King!
It took more than ten minutes for Lin Cao to finally digest the script and calm down his mood.
Click.
With a few clicks of the mouse, both the document and the computer are closed together.
He will go to the temporarily rented studio to interview actors later, but he can't be too affected by this script.
Lin Cao is still confused about the criteria for selecting actors...
However, his ability to understand the boss is not there, and his ability to memorize things by rote is still online.
Didn’t the boss say that the standard for leading actors is to have decent looks, and the standard for supporting roles is to have average looks and no highlights? Then choose people based on this!
As for the issue of acting skills, it's even simpler - whoever can make Lin Cao disgusting more has better acting skills and should be hired.
It must be Mr. Yang's intention to act such a disgusting script and make it deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
After confirming his idea, Lin Cao took a rough look at the number of people who came to audition this time.
When the Yue Mansion was recruiting extras at the same time, there were actually hundreds of people who chose to come to Kuang Guang!
After a moment of surprise, Lin Cao suddenly felt that this was natural.
Kuai Guang Company also reimburses travel, food and accommodation, the pay is relatively high, and even provides long-term agency contracts. For those small group actors who have been struggling for food and clothing for many years, this is an opportunity that must not be missed. .
Not only does it have the possibility of becoming popular, it also means that you can have a stable job in the future.
What's more, this is a company with a good reputation that is recruiting people!
The person in charge of filming online dramas at Yuefu is Zheng Weineng, who is in charge of the live broadcast circle. The leading actors are either seconded from the entertainment department or their own anchors who are trying to transform. It is impossible to leave the starring and main supporting roles for these small ensemble actors. .
Of course, because the system can only sign one person per month, Yang Ruoqian only issued one long-term contract quota to Lin Cao.
Other supporting actors and extras can only sign short-term project contracts with them.
Lin Cao took a taxi to the rented studio. As soon as he got off the car, he saw that the place was crowded with many actors who were coming to test shoot.
Jinhai is not particularly cold in the early winter, but it can't be said to be comfortable either.
So many people are willing to come all the way here, even half an hour or an hour early, just to win the few actor positions.
The entertainment industry is dying of drought and dying of floods.
After all, he was a leader of a large company. Lin Cao immediately put on his sunglasses, held a cigarette in his mouth, and showed his momentum: "Everyone, register your identity and wait in line over there. I Come here when you hear your name."
Seeing Lin Cao arriving, several staff members immediately surrounded him and opened a path for him through the crowd.
"Brother Lin!"
"Brother Lin, go this way."
"Give way to those in front, don't block the road."
These people are not employees of Kuei Guang, they were hired by Lin Cao himself to support his appearance...
Lin Cao is not a director, but this momentum must not be lost to anyone. This is definitely not to save his own face, but to maintain the great image of Kueiguang Company.
As for the real director, he should be inside Chengyu Media now, watching Yang Ruoqian's outrageous plot and shouting curses.
Of course, it is definitely not only the director who has a headache, but also the screenwriter who changed the plot into a script... This plot of only a few hundred thousand words makes people sick just looking at it, let alone adapting it.
Lin Cao sat down on the main seat, took out a piece of paper, and began to read the names: "Li Na, Wang Bing, you two come over first to act against each other. The others are waiting outside."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man and a woman walked out of the crowd.
The two looked at Lin Cao, with a trace of anticipation and nervousness flashing in their eyes at the same time.
The girl, who was not particularly beautiful and could only be described as delicate, simply introduced herself: "Hello, I'm Li Na. I want to try out for the second supporting role."
"Hello, Director Lin, I would like to test shoot the male lead."
Lin Cao nodded and motioned for the two of them to follow him into the set.
He turned on the computer and found a dialogue in the script: "Look at this line and then act it out according to your own understanding."
Li Na and Wang Bing took the script and read it quickly.
This is a plot about a conflict between a female supporting character and the male protagonist. The plot takes place next to a car.
The male protagonist was already engaged to the female partner at that time.
After watching it for dozens of seconds, the two of them basically grasped the outline of the plot, so they nodded to Lin Cao to indicate that they could audition.
"Let's get started." Lin Cao was not a professional director, so he said directly.
Wang Bing immediately got into the mood, with an expression that was neither humble nor overbearing, and said to Li Na, who played the female supporting role: "My wife..."
The two were walking side by side, but after hearing this address, Li Na became furious and turned her head. The anger and contempt in her eyes were vivid: "What did you call me?!"
At the same time, he received a huge slap in the face.
Of course, it was impossible to actually slap during the audition, but this range of movements, this expression... Lin Cao's eyes lit up.
Wang Bing covered his face with a look of shock: "Old..."
Before he finished speaking, he slapped me again: "What's your name?"
Li Na's voice obviously became lower, but the listener felt that she was even more angry.
Wang Bing suppressed his anger and reminded: "We have already booked..."
Uh-huh! Another slap flew into the air. This time, Li Na raised her voice to the highest pitch: "What's your name?!"
"Su...Mr. Su..." Wang Bing lowered his head immediately.
Li Na then sneered and shouted hysterically: "Remember, you are the one who married into our Su family. You don't even deserve to call me by my name. Are you engaged? It's for outsiders to see. Otherwise, how can I accept your Lin family's property?"
The script ends here.
"Stuck, stop!" Lin Cao shouted the conclusion decisively, but did not announce the result immediately. He just ordered: "You two go out and wait. I will notify you shortly. Call Qiu Rui and Zhao Ling in by the way."
Lin Cao actually had already made up his mind.
This girl named Li Na performed well. Although her acting skills were a bit immature and her performance was too flamboyant and seemed a bit exaggerated, this is the style of this web drama and she fits the temperament of the character very well.
Wang Bing, on the other hand, is quite satisfactory. He has no obvious shortcomings and no bright spots. He should be put aside for the time being. If he can't find a better candidate, he will be considered again.
…
Ten minutes passed, and groups of people came in and out of the set, anxiously waiting in the waiting area for Lin Cao to announce his fate.
"Guan Yunpeng, Nie Xiaowan, Zhou Yu, Huang Lie. Director Lin wants you four to go in!"
Two more actors came out of the set with disappointment on their faces.
Because both of them performed abnormally, if nothing else happened, they should have lost the election.
The four people whose names were read quickly walked out of the queue and entered the set.
Most of those who can come here to audition are "veteran actors" who have been acting as group actors for a long time. They understand the basic rules and don't need Lin Cao to say anything.
After a brief self-introduction, Lin Cao, as before, selected a small excerpt from the script and printed it for the four people.
"This is the scene you are going to perform, a scene between four people. Take a look and ask me if you have any questions." Lin Cao said.
The four of them picked up the script and read it together.
This is a very simple scene, probably the plot of an old lady who is critically ill with leukemia and a few people having sex in the hospital.
Guan Yunpeng plays the male lead, Nie Xiaowan plays the female supporting role of Dr. Turtle, Zhou Yu is a senior doctor at the hospital, and Huang Lie plays the miracle doctor who was hired for a huge sum of 5 million.
After reading the plot and exchanging a few simple words, the four of them nodded to Lin Cao: "Director Lin, we can do it."
Lin Cao, who was addicted to directing, shook the ashes from his cigarette and said, "Let's start."
Nie Xiaowan stood at a table, looking like he was being scolded but not convinced.
Zhou Yu said anxiously and angrily: "You, Dr. Turtle, can't even cure the old lady's leukemia! You actually want to pour gold juice into the first lady of Luo Province? Do you know what gold juice is?! Ah! ?You do not know?!"
The image of a person who was angry and impatient, who threw all the responsibilities to others even though he was not good enough, was immediately established.
Nie Xiaowan lowered her head and murmured: "Shit... shit water!"
Oh, a slap came over.
"Shit water?!" Zhou Yu was furious, "If Mrs. Hong has any trouble, I will let you drink it until you die!"
Just as the atmosphere was solidifying, the camera turned to Guan Yunpeng.
"I can handle the old lady's illness..." He couldn't help but laugh.
"Guan Yunpeng, you, the son-in-law of the Hong family, are you worthy of talking?!" Nie Xiaowan, who was originally submissive, acted like a cat whose tail was stepped on, vividly portraying the image of bullying and fearing the strong, "Get out!"
Guan Yunpeng, who could clearly make the whole drama end with just one hand, endured the humiliation, walked to the bedside, and said seriously: "You Western doctors call this disease leukemia, and it can't be cured! In Chinese medicine, it's called evil, and I can cure it!" "
"Possessed?!" Nie Xiaowan sneered, "If you can cure me, I will marry you now!"
"Okay!" As he said that, Guan Yunpeng made a gesture of picking up the Taiyi Divine Needle in his hand, and was about to start casting... Just as he was about to start treatment, the door outside was suddenly pushed open.
Huang Lie, the god of medicine, walked in with a step that he didn't recognize his relatives.
"Stop!" Nie Xiaowan shouted hurriedly, "Master Huang, the God of Medicine, is here!"
"It's Huang Lie, the God of Medicine!"
"Grandpa Huang!"
Huang Lie strode past these people and glanced at them with confidence. Suddenly his face changed drastically and he said in shock: "Leukemia! Also known as evil in traditional Chinese medicine! When evil gas enters the body, this disease is difficult to treat!"
At this time, Huang Lie suddenly saw something in Guan Yunpeng's hand, his expression changed drastically, and he was shocked again: "Taiyi Divine Needle!? May I ask, your surname is Guan?"
As he spoke, he cupped his fists with both hands and bent slightly.
"Exactly." Guan Yunpeng said.
Huang Lie took a deep breath, knelt down on one knee, and said in an excited voice: "Huang Lie, the 320th generation successor of Taiyi Sect, pays homage to Uncle Master and the Dragon King!"
Everyone else was shocked.
"Uncle Master? This is the God of Medicine!"
"Meet the Dragon King?!"
"Is he the legendary Dragon King?"
At the same time, Guan Yunpeng felt the emotions of the people around him, and the corner of his mouth suddenly tilted to the left, rising to the extreme, revealing an exaggerated smile that was comparable to a hook.
