After the copyright issue between Disney and Warner came to an end, Zhang Xiao put all his experience into the preparation of "Forrest Gump".

Various departments of the crew have already made preparations, and the two location directors are traveling around the world with people looking for suitable locations for filming.

Zhang Xiao's most important task is to select Forrest Gump's partner from among more than 20 first-tier Hollywood male stars.

Soon, Forrest Gump's audition began.

Leonardo, Evans, Johnny Depp, Bradley Cooper, Heath Ledger, Chris Bell and other superstars gathered together, waiting for the arrival of Zhang Xiao and the casting staff.

"Hey, Bell, I don't think you are suitable for the role of Forrest Gump. If you quit now, you can save some face for yourself," Leonardo joked.

Bell replied: "I have read the script of Forrest Gump back and forth no less than a hundred times, and I know every line by heart. This is my favorite character besides Batman. No one can read it from scratch."

I snatched it from my hand."

Chris Evans said solemnly: "If I could trade the captain of Lighthouse Country for Forrest Gump, I would be very willing."

Heath Ledger shook his head and said: "Chris, if you say that, Marvel will be very sad."

Chris Evans laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, because Marvel's largest shareholder is Mr. Zhang."

Heath Ledger was stunned and said: "Okay, you win."

Just when everyone was chatting animatedly, Zhang Xiao and a middle-aged man walked in.

Everyone stood up to greet Zhang Xiao, and Bell asked directly: "Hey, Zhang, are you the only two auditioning?"

"That's right!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said with a smile: "This is Mr. Norris Atwood, who has won the Oscar for Best Cinematography three times. Everyone should know him!"

Chris Evans said: "We are all old friends, Norris, are you the photographer of "Forrest Gump"?"

Norris Atwood nodded and said: "Yes!"

Chris Evans said happily: "That's great. When filming, you must film me better."

At this time, Heath Ledger said dissatisfiedly: "Chris, Forrest Gump is mine, you can't get it."

Chris Evans said: "Then give it a try."

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "It seems that everyone is very confident. This is good. I can tell you in advance that this audition only has two clips. I will not give you a chance to read the script, let alone

A gap to adjust your emotions.”

"And during your performance, Norris's camera will be on all the time. After you have all finished performing, I will select an actor from the screen who is most suitable for the role of Forrest Gump."

"My goal for this movie is very clear, to sweep the Oscars. I wish you good luck."

After saying that, Zhang Xiao and Norris walked into the audition room.

A Disney employee came in with a box and said: "Gentlemen, please draw lots to decide the order of appearance."

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately gathered together and drew their own appearance numbers.

Audition room.

Norris had already pointed the camera at the stage and said, "Director Zhang, I'm ready."

Zhang Xiao nodded and shouted outside: "Who is No. 1? You can come in."

Bell opened the door, walked into the audition room, and said: "It's me!"

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Bell, it seems your luck is not very good!"

Bell said confidently: "No, my luck and strength have always been very good."

"Then let's get started!" With that said, Zhang Xiao pointed to the row of chairs in front of him and said: "Bell, when you see that row of chairs, you immediately see chocolate and a briefcase on it, and there are some leaves under your feet. You should understand what I mean, right?

!”

Bell glanced at it, his expression became serious, and said: "You want me to perform the beginning of the movie?"

"Yes!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "You can go up now."

Bell took a deep breath, walked up to the balcony, and sat on the row of chairs.

First, he checked the chocolate and the briefcase. After there were no problems, he nodded to Zhang Xiao.

"action!"

Following Zhang Xiao's order, Bell's resolute eyes quickly became dull. He put his hands on his legs and straightened his waist, like a sculpture.

Seemingly hearing something, Bell turned to look at the 'woman' who was sitting over.'

Seeing this place, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but frown.

Just now, Bell's sitting posture and demeanor were very good and sounded like Forrest Gump in the script, but as soon as he turned his head, this smell quickly dissipated.

To describe it in one word, it looks like something different than a god.

This 'god' is the 'god' of the character, and Bale obviously did not let the character get involved.

Sure enough, Bell acted very loosely in the latter part, only portraying Forrest Gump's dullness, but not the "god" in him.

After the first segment was performed, Zhang Xiao pointed to the employee next to him and said: "Bell, carry him on your back and run three times around the stage. Remember that behind you is the sea of ​​​​fire caused by the shell."

"clear!"

Bell agreed, picked up his employees and started running.

In this clip, Bell performed very well. His running movements were obviously carefully designed. His steps were not too big, but very fast. His eyes were dull but determined, his expression was serious, and his brows were furrowed.

Since the situation was extremely critical, there was still no trace of urgency or anxiety on his face.

Zhang Xiao nodded with satisfaction and whispered: "This is so true!"

After the performance, Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Bell, I'm glad you came to audition. Now you can go back."

Bell seemed to be aware of the problem in his performance, and asked with a wry smile: "Zhang, do I have no chance?"

Zhang Xiao said: "You are the first to audition. I really can't make a judgment now. If I were asked to give a score, I can only give you the atmosphere in the first paragraph. In the second paragraph, I can give you 8.5 points."

When Bell heard this, he slapped his forehead and said, "It seems I have no hope. Okay, Zhang, I hope we have a chance to cooperate next time."

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Well, there will definitely be."

After leaving the audition room, Bell shouted: "No. 2 can go in."

Lawson, an A-list Hollywood actor, stood up, walked to Bell and asked: "Can Bell tell me some information?"

Bell said: "Lawson, we are rivals, do you think I will tell you?"

Lawson smiled bitterly and said, "You don't have to be like this!"

Bell said: "I can only say that these two clips are very simple. Bruce Zhang is not looking for acting skills, but whether you can play Forrest Gump."

Lawson nodded and said, "I understand, thank you."

Entering the audition room, Lawson began his performance.

Compared with Bell, Lawson's preparation seemed not to be very good.

In the first clip, he didn't even say the line "Life is like chocolate". For the entire movie, other lines can be ignored, except this one.

Obviously, Lawson has not understood what the film "Forrest Gump" wants to express.

Zhang Xiao didn't even give him a chance to perform the second segment, and just invited him out.
Chapter completed!
