Live Like You [Entertainment]

Facts have proved that Shao Cheng's words come true.

Zhou Wenjin looked at the scene in front of him, a vein on his forehead twitched involuntarily.

"What the hell, I really think I'm the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, liar, get out, give me the role of Lao Tzu, and I won't act!" A man with dyed yellow hair, heavy eyeliner, and an earring on his left ear The tall, thin young man kicked the door cursingly, walked out angrily, and stopped when he passed by Zhou Wenjin.

"Are you here for the audition too?"

Zhou Wenjin let out an "ah" before realizing that the audition invitation letter in his hand had betrayed him.

"Yes, yes."

"Let me tell you, don't go, it's all a fucking lie, Zhang Qiu Zuobai, it's all fake!" The young man said, and patted Zhou Wenjin's shoulder familiarly, "I can do it myself." After finishing speaking, he cursed away.

Zhou Wenjin was wondering when his cell phone rang, and it was Shao Cheng calling.As soon as Zhou Wenjin picked it up, he heard him yelling angrily: "Wen Jin, come back quickly, something went wrong, over there..."

Zhou Wenjin was listening, but he heard someone shouting from inside the door: "Next! Is the next one still available?"

Zhou Wenjin had no choice but to say to the other end: "It's my turn, I'll call you later." After speaking, regardless of Shao Cheng's roar, he hung up the phone directly.Soon, the phone rang again, it was from Shao Cheng, and the door shouted again: "Next!"

"Yes, yes!" Zhou Wenjin hurriedly replied, simply turned off the phone, and walked over quickly.

Zhou Wenjin stood at the door and took a breath, thinking that he was here anyway, so let's go in and have a look.He knocked on the door, and after getting permission, he pushed the door in and said, "Teacher... yes."

There was only one table and three chairs in the empty room, one of which was left alone in the middle of the room, obviously for the audition candidates.Zhou Wenjin looked around, suddenly feeling more uneasy in his heart.

Generally, the crew will arrange a special venue for audition. The rich crew may arrange it in a better place, maybe a studio rehearsal hall, or a studio. Generally, the crew stays in a hotel and recruits outsiders when they open a room. They are all used to try out ordinary actors, and it is reasonable for a hero or heroine to not do this.

The audition place for the crew tentatively named "Rock, Paper, Scissors" was arranged in an industrial park that Zhou Wenjin had never heard of. Said, the house is still dilapidated.It took Zhou Wenjin a long time to find the location marked on the invitation letter, climbed a section of dilapidated broken stairs, and walked around the dusty empty corridor for a long time before finally finding it.

Would Zhang Qiu and Zuo Bai arrange the audition in such a place?Thinking of this, Zhou Wenjin panicked a little.

There are only two people sitting behind the only table in this empty room, a man and a woman. The man has a beard and curly hair, like a giant poodle. It's glamorous and beautiful, but it's just that the face here will be long, and it doesn't seem very happy.

"Introduce yourself." The man greeted, the pen in his hand kept spinning, looking a little absent-minded.

"Hi, teacher, I'm here for the audition."

"Everyone who comes here is here to audition, what's your name, which role are you trying for?"

Zhou Wenjin: "..."

Although he was getting more and more muttering in his heart, Zhou Wenjin replied honestly: "Hello, my name is Zhou Wenjin. I'm here to audition for the role of the leading actor, Gu Yunqi. This is an invitation letter, which was sent to my agent by your crew." company's."

"Zhou Wenjin?" The bearded man scratched the back of his neck, "It sounds familiar."

This sentence made Zhou Wenjin's heart go cold for a while, but the woman next to her said angrily: "The Zhou Wenjin who participated in "I Am an Actor" and was blackmailed by the shady, didn't you send the letter?"

"Oh oh oh!" The bearded man finally came to his senses and stood up happily, "It's you, Lao Zhou!"

The 32-year-old Zhou Wenjin spurted blood three feet away, and he could only politely say: "Hello, hello, I wonder if Director Zhang is here now?"

The bearded man pointed to himself and said, "I am Director Zhang."

Zhou Wenjin: "You, you are Director Zhang Qiu?"

"Yes, I am." The bearded man said while handing out a business card, "Look."

Zhou Wenjin took it over and took a look, and sure enough, he saw the big two words on it: Zhang Qiu.The following position is Mao Rongrong Studio Director.

Zhou Wenjin: "..."

The uneasiness in Zhou Wenjin's heart was finally confirmed.Zhang Qiu's name is indeed not very special, and it is not impossible to meet someone in the industry with the same name and surname, so what about Zuo Bai?

As if knowing what Zhou Wenjin was thinking, the woman said flatly, "I am Zuo Bai."

Zhou Wenjin: "Huh???" Zhou Wenjin finally understood why the yellow-haired man just left cursingly. He had seen photos of Zuo Bai being interviewed by the media, and he didn't look like this at all.If only one name is the same, it can be said to be a coincidence, and Zhang Qiu and Zuo Bai's "copycat version" appeared at the same time, which only shows that the other party was playing tricks from the beginning.

Li Kui and Li Gui's affairs are actually quite a lot in the showbiz. Those ensemble performers who want to enter the showbiz and have nowhere to go or some [-]th-line actors will encounter such crews from time to time. The signboard recruits people, in fact, it has nothing to do with the main character, and this kind of crew will not really make any dramas. The purpose is only one, to cheat money.When you get people here, you are asked to pay registration fees, training fees, materials fees, etc., or to help investors decide on roles and ask actors to pay for a set of photo shoots. Of course, after the money is paid, these people disappear Yes, if you meet thick-skinned ones, even if you can approach them, they can confidently reply that you were not selected and have nothing to do with them.

When Zhou Wenjin thought about it, the tension that had been suffocated since the moment he received the invitation letter dissipated.No wonder, Zhou Wenjin thought, no wonder he was invited to audition for the male lead as soon as he came up. After knowing that Zhang Qiu was not that Zhang Qiu, and Zuo Bai was not that Zuo Bai, he was relieved.When things go wrong, there must be demons, but now that it has been implemented, he feels at ease.

Zuo Bai admired Zhou Wenjin's expression changes playfully, and when Zhou Wenjin raised her eyes again, her expression changed slightly.Zuo Bai asked: "Are you still auditioning?"

Knowing that the other party might be a liar, Zhou Wenjin also relaxed a lot, but didn't think about leaving immediately.He asked, "Do you want to pay?"

Zhang Qiu stroked his beard and asked Zuo Bai: "Pay the fee? What kind of fee? You still have to pay the registration fee for the audition here?"

The corners of Zuo Bai's thin lips raised: "No."

Zhou Wenjin was taken aback for a moment, for some reason the liars didn't play their cards according to the rules.

Zuo Bai said again: "Have you read the role description in the invitation letter?"

Zhou Wenjin nodded: "Gu Yunqi, a gay prisoner who escaped from prison, was burdened with the revenge of a massacre more than ten years ago. He quietly returned to Samsara City, avoiding the police's pursuit, while waiting for an opportunity to find out the truth."

Zuo Bai pointed to the water dispenser beside him: "Would you like some water?"

Zhou Wenjin was speechless at this person's unreasonable playing of cards: "No, no need." He said.

Zuo Bai said, "You said it yourself." She winked at Zhang Qiu beside her, "Then, let's start."

"He Xizhang! He Xizhang! He Xizhang! He Xizhang!"

He Xizhang smiled and waved to his fans. He received a lot of gifts, signed a few names, said hello, and finally entered his car calmly under the protection of security personnel.

Back at last, he thought.

It's obviously only been away for less than a month, but it seems to have been away for as long as a century.

He Xizhang turned on the phone, called up the address book, and thought about how to send a message to that person.

"By the way, I just got the news." Fan Miao turned his head from the front passenger seat and said, "Bai Xin and Xiao Zhang Qiu have come out to do it alone, and they are preparing for a web drama recently, and it seems that they haven't finalized the investment yet. square."

"The two of them?" He Xizhang couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

When a person is at the core of the industry, he can naturally receive much more news than those on the periphery.Bai Xin and Xiao Zhang Qiu may not be clear to outsiders, but He Xizhang is very clear about their backgrounds.

Xiao Zhangqiu, who has developed abroad for many years, is a rare talent. In his early twenties, he won the Sundance International Film Festival Feature Film Award with an independent production "The Joy of Poison", and was hailed as the film of the future. strength.However, this person has a wide range of interests and has a slightly weird temper. Over the years, he has not produced much. Although every shot is a high-quality product, his domestic popularity is not as good as that of Zhang Qiu, who focuses on small-screen popular dramas. In order to distinguish, people in the circle use The size refers to two people respectively.

As for Bai Xin, she is the real "Zuo Bai".The one who is showing his face outside is just the agent hired by the partner because this cutting-edge screenwriter refused to expose himself. Before that, Bai Xin had another identity. She was the well-known director Zuo Xuejian and his ex-wife Bai Pingzhousheng. The daughter of her daughter, Bai Pingzhou, is not an outsider either. She was a rising star in China more than 30 years ago, but because she married Zuo Xuejian, she chose to fade out of the screen at the peak and wash her hands for soup.

"How did the two of them get together?" He Xizhang asked with interest.

"I heard that I have a partner." Fan Miao stretched out his mobile phone from the front seat, "This is the internal information I got. The film they are currently preparing is called "Rock Paper Scissors."

He Xizhang read the brief introduction on Fan Miao's phone, showing an expression of interest.He has been running around recently, nothing more than to prepare for the big show in the country. His studio is not affiliated with some big company to manage his acting career. He wants to sign a group of artists, really Start your own entertainment business.What happened seven years ago made him understand that in this world of the jungle, if he doesn't have enough ability, he can't protect the person he really wants to protect!

He Xizhang said: "Help me ask them to come out and talk."

Fan Miao smiled and said, "I know you're interested. I've already made an appointment. Let's go boating in the Jiangnan box at Pinxian Pavilion at eight o'clock tonight."

Zhou Wenjin stopped the last movement, panted and looked at the two people behind the table ahead.

The sky had already darkened, and before he knew it, he was asked to perform a lot of things according to different scenarios.

This crew is completely different from other crews, who will give specific scene content and performance lines for actors to try, but only have some rough settings. After arriving here, what Zhang Qiu and Zuo Bai asked Zhou Wenjin to perform is completely different. What should be included in the size of the audition, but it exceeds a lot.They made Zhou Wenjin have nightmares for a while, made him cry for a while, split him for a while, made him do this and that again, which made Zhou Wenjin a little dizzy. Tired, my emotions have been volatile to the extreme, however, I enjoyed it a lot!

Seeing that the two were still silent, Zhou Wenjin could only take the initiative to speak out panting, "Teachers, I'm done with the performance. Is there anything else I need to try?"

Zhang Qiu suddenly jumped up with an "Aww" sound: "I've already said, why your book doesn't go smoothly, why doesn't it go smoothly, your logic doesn't make sense!"

Zuo Bai sneered and said, "My fault? If it wasn't for you to meddle in the middle and raise your opinions, the script would be like the shit it is now?"

Zhang Qiu actually also sneered, he said with a chuckle: "Come on, I'm worried that no one will be able to perform well so I kindly give you an idea. It's because your own position is not firm, and now you're blaming me instead?"

Zuo Bai's answer was that he slapped Zhang Qiu directly.

Zhang Qiu yelled: "Is there a girlfriend like you? I want to break up with you, break up!"

Without further ado, Zuo Bai threw Zhang Qiu aside, took out his laptop, put on his glasses and started typing, and said to Zhang Qiu who was still screaming beside him, "Do you still have to work?"

Zhang Qiu: "Do it."

Zhang Qiu said: "I will immediately readjust the shooting plan."

"Let's not be busy with that, there is a dinner tonight, I won't go, you go to participate, don't disturb me during this time, bring me the bedding and food when you come back." Zuo Bai said, "Zhou Wenjin, you can gone."

Zhou Wenjin: "Huh?"

Zuo Bai said: "Go back and wait for the notification, we will contact you when we have news."

Zhou Wenjin: "..."

Zhou Wenjin laughed: "Good teacher, thank you two teachers, goodbye."

Zhou Wenjin walked to the door and was about to open it when Zuo Bai shouted, "Zhou Wenjin!"

Zhou Wenjin turned around: "Teacher Zuo?"

But Zuo Bai smiled: "My name is Bai Xin, the white is Bai, the Xin who enjoys it. Can I ask you a question?"

Zhou Wenjin was startled, then laughed: "Okay, Teacher Bai, you can ask."

Bai Xin said, "Why did you thank us just now?"

Zhou Wenjin laughed: "Thank you for watching my performance. It's been a long time since I performed so thoroughly."

Bai Xin let out a "huh", lowered her head, and started typing again.

Zhou Wenjin waited for a while, seeing that the two of them had no time to talk to him, so he shook his head with a smile and left.
