427. Chapter 427 - Scene 427
As time went by, Ha Ji-won and Huang Shumin became more and more anxious. The candidates of Ke Jingteng and Lao Cao who they thought were good were eliminated by Jiubiao and Li Xiaole in a minute with various reasons. Seeing that the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, Huang Shumin, who valued this performance, finally couldn't help it and began to give tentative suggestions to Li Xiaole:
"Director Li, you can't let this baby consultant mess around... If this continues, we will be in vain for the afternoon and can't even choose..."
"Let's go next, I'll always choose it." Li Xiaole was not nervous at all, and replied without raising his eyelids.
Li Xiaole calmly took the interview list and recorded the information on it. From his perspective, although Jiubadao's selection angle is nonsensical, the writer's feeling is very keen. It is very accurate to pick out the problems of these male actors. This does not mean that Jiubadao knows how to choose actors, but it is purely an artist's intuition. In this kind of emotional story, the actor needs the most "right feeling".
Many actors are handsome and have a good performance, but once they play this role, they will be awkward. On the contrary, some actors are not outstanding in normal times, but when they label a character, you will think that he is the person in the story, which is the right feeling.
Moreover, Li Xiaole actually had the candidates for Lao Cao and Ahe, and Zheng Yuanchang was designated Lao Cao. The Peng Yuyan, who played Tang Yu in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", was a young man with impressive big eyes during the interview just now, but it seemed that everyone felt that his performance of Ke Jingteng was a bit lacking in strength.
Li Xiaole thought that the role of Eddie Peng, who was a little baby, was very good at playing Ah He at this stage. After asking Lanny Wisemore's conclusion that it was affirmative, the role was also registered.
Among the remaining people, the candidate Ke Jingteng in his mind should also pass the nine swords... Looking down at the list in his hand, there were only less than a few interviewers left. At this time when it was about to end, the mentality of the interviewers was now adjusted to the best. Li Xiaole turned his head and looked at his assistant and said, "Xiao Zhang, let Ruan Jingtian come in and audition."
"Received." Xiao Zhang walked out and shouted to the handsome guys: "Ruan Jingtian, who is Ruan Jingtian~"
As soon as the voice fell, he looked at his short curly hair. The young man with anger faintly looked in his eyes. He entered the interview room angrily. Xiao Zhang closed the door. The young man with short hair walked to the long table of Wang Yang and the three judges, looked at Li Xiaole, lowered his head and said reluctantly: "Hello, I am Ruan Jingtian."
As soon as he entered the door, Li Xiaole's eyes lit up. He stood up and walked to the radio-level camera beside the long table, and held the camera and pointed it at Ruan Jingtian a few steps away. He saw a young man wearing a set of jeans and a white shirt standing there with some displeasure. The camera feels first-class, but his expression is clearly disdainful.
Li Xiaole smiled and looked at the screen, and smiled, "Mr. Ruan Jingtian, give me a left side." As he said, Ruan Jingtian turned sideways to the camera. He continued, "OK, turn to the right side; OK, look at the 45-degree angle; OK, turn a circle... OK, smile directly at the camera."
Ruan Jingtian looked at the camera and smiled reluctantly, saying, "Is this OK..."
"This is really good." Huang Shumin couldn't help but sigh softly at Ha Ji-won. Although Ruan Jingtian is not the most eye-catching appearance today, his appearance and his temperament are all enhanced versions of nine swords, which undoubtedly surpassed Huo Jianhua and He Junxiang, especially his eyes, and his eyes are very "energetic", which makes people unforgettable at first sight on the camera.
After performing the basic audition action, Jiu Badao suddenly stood up and stood up, stepped forward and looked at Ruan Jingtian repeatedly, looking at him with interest and asked, "Why are you so unhappy?"
"I... am not unhappy..." Ruan Jingtian put his hands in his pants pockets and lowered his head unnaturally.
"Then why don't you look at me, watch me talk?" Jiubadao happily tapped his butt with his toes. Ruan Jingtian immediately raised his eyes and glared at him fiercely and said with a fierce voice: "I'm not unhappy!!" After that, he saw Li Xiaole behind the camera looking at him expressionlessly, closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down, raised his head and said in a high tone:
“I just feel unfair.”
"Where is unfair?" Jiubadao asked with a smile.
"Why do you want those actors to come, but you don't even let the audition door go in and then brush them off? Even those who come in, why do you just ask him "what comics do you like" and let them go out? Director Li, screenwriter Jiubadao, I know you are busy, but do you know how much preparations we actors have made for today's interview? Xiao Zong only ate apples for this interview for a week, Xiao Mei turned down a TV series for this drama and cut her hair short, but she just wanted to get a fair competition opportunity~
I understand that it is normal for the audition to be wiped out, but if you have already designated other actors~! You shouldn't be playing with us like this!!!"
Ruan Jingtian's tone was still relatively slow at first, but he became obviously excited later. His face turned red and he looked extremely angry. His indignant look made Ha Ji-won and Huang Shu-min speechless. The director had no strange requests for the actor interviewing the director. Where did the actor turn against him on the spot when he was angry...
"Hahaha~~" Jiubadao looked at Ruan Jingtian who was staring at her eyes for a long time, and suddenly laughed happily, excitedly hugged Ruan Jingtian's shoulder, leaned her face against her face, made an angry expression, and shouted to Li Xiaole next to the camera:
"Director Li~! Look~! Look~! Does he look like me~! Isn't he exactly like me like this??"
At this moment, not only Ruan Jingtian was a little confused, but even Ha Ji-won and Huang Shumin were a little confused. What was like... Where was it like? Nose, eyes, eyebrows... Where was it like...
"It's like it's just carved from a mold." Li Xiaole showed his head from behind the camera and smiled satisfied.
"Okay~ it's him. Will Ke Jingteng decide to act for him? He is simply a copy of mine~" Jiubadao firmly hugged Ruan Jingtian's shoulder with a dull face and shouted.
"Well, let's make this decision." Li Xiaole agreed with a smile.
"Hahahahahahahaha~!" Jiubadao smiled happily with a big mouth, looking at Ruan Jingtian's face, the more he looked at him, and he couldn't let go and kiss him.
"Wait... why did you choose me? Didn't I say good things to you just now?" Ruan Jingtian was a little embarrassed by his sight, and was confused again. He just scolded the director and the screenwriter for disrespecting the actor... Why was he even selected? Jiu Badao said that he was exactly the same as him, and where was exactly the same!? Could it be... what special habits do the director and the screenwriter have...?
"The answer is obvious." Li Xiaole turned his head and walked to Jiubadaodi and asked, "Jiubadao, tell Mr. Ruan Jingtian in the script, what kind of person are you?"
"Idiot." Jiubadao grinned and said with a smile: "I am a big idiot who thinks he is invincible in the world."
"Okay, today's audition ended." Li Xiaole picked up the cast list and threw it to his assistant, signaling that the people behind him would not have to come in.
"I don't understand, what does it mean? What does it have to do with me? Hello, Director Li, are you kidding me?! If you have the ability, just come directly. What does it mean now? Don't think I'm a newbie and just fool me. I won't eat your tricks!" Ruan Jingtian still didn't understand the situation, and thought Li Xiaole was kidding him, pretending to be calm.
"Zhi Yuan... Why do I think he really looks like nine knives now..." Huang Shumin looked at Ruan Jingtian, who was blushing and had a thick neck, and pushed Ha Ji Yuan's arm blankly.
"It's not like, the self-righteous expression is exactly the same." Ha Ji-won nodded his delicate chin, looking like he suddenly realized.
Finally, after a large-scale audition, the list set by the actors was determined within the crew. Shen Jiayi - He Zhiyuan, Hu Jiawei - Huang Shumin, Ke Jingteng - Ruan Jingtian, Lao Cao - Zheng Yuanchang, Ah - Peng Yuyan... Others, such as Ke's father, Ke's mother, class mentor, and Li Xiaole, all decided to use the senior Taiwanese actors in the original version, and all the actors have been confirmed.
Within a week, the crew coordinated the schedules of the actors, and "The Girls We Chased Together" began to prepare for filming at Jingcheng Middle School in Changhua, Taiwan.
Jingcheng Middle School is Jiubadao's alma mater. The school supports this shooting very much and specially frees up classrooms and venues. The premise is that it must not interfere with normal teaching on campus, and students of the school cannot participate as extras.
After a few days of lively scenes where the crew and students merged in the early stages of the school, the students in the school also began to calm down, while actors such as Ha Ji-won, Ruan Jingtian, and Zheng Yuanchang fell into a state of confusion, because the storyboard script had not yet been written in their hands, and the screenwriter Jiu Badao had just finished the second draft of the outline script.
This situation is predictable. Time is too tight. This is a simple story. The plot is not full of ups and downs. The most important emotion is not sincere enough. Can the actors' thinking return to their youth? For these young actors, there is only one most important factor in whether they were good or not. Do they really like Shen Jiayi in the play?
Li Xiaole did not let them perform intensive rehearsals or perform romances as before, but let Ruan Jingtian, Zheng Yuanchang, and Peng Yuyan wear high school uniforms to sit together to talk about a topic - first love...
As time went by, Ha Ji-won and Huang Shumin became more and more anxious. The candidates of Ke Jingteng and Lao Cao who they thought were good were eliminated by Jiubiao and Li Xiaole in a minute with various reasons. Seeing that the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, Huang Shumin, who valued this performance, finally couldn't help it and began to give tentative suggestions to Li Xiaole:
