Chapter 4 The Fourth Cigarette(1/2)

The audition days come very quickly.

By the time he arrived, there were already two or three actresses waiting there. They seemed to be bored and began to bite their ears: "I heard that there is another person coming to audition, what is the name Chenyan..."

The leading actress raised her chin: "Ha, it's just a newcomer, there's no threat."

The little girl sitting next to her said cautiously: "Sister Shi Lei, Chen Yan's performance in "The Song of Leaving People" is quite good."

"It's just a halo of blessing from the famous director. If she wants her to act in such an urban drama, she will definitely not be able to act."

"That's it." Another actor echoed, "Some people can only shoot costumes."

The little girl wanted to say something, but when she looked up, she saw Chen Yan standing at the door and quickly pulled the sleeves of the people beside her.

I said bad things on my back, but I heard it, it was over...

To her surprise, Chen Yan was not angry, but instead smiled and greeted him, and sat down on the side with a comfortable feeling.

The warm atmosphere just now was a little calm, Shi Lei's face was dull, and she snorted softly: "If you hear it, you will hear it. All I said is true."

Chen Yan's creed never allowed anyone to bully it. She curled the corners of her mouth and looked at the other party calmly: "Why don't it be true? Let's wait and see."

Shi Lei's face changed and she wanted to have an attack, but she still endured it after weighing the pros and cons. Anyway, this character will definitely be hers in the end. It's not interesting to be so quick that she can talk to her now. If she can see the other person's black face, it would be really interesting, haha.

It took about half an hour for everyone to audition. When Chen Yan was called, Shi Lei happened to come out and sneered at her: "Ms. Chen, I hope you can perform normally. I will keep my eyes open and look at her."

Chen Yan smiled slightly: "I will, thank you."

Shi Lei choked and looked at her back expressionlessly - if you lose the election, can you still smile?

Indoor, director Wang Yufeng saw Chen Yan and smiled kindly: "Little girl, don't be nervous, do your best."

She said with politeness and generosity: "Thank you, director, I will do my best!"

"Okay, then the first thing we'll be evaluating is piano technology."

Hey! Isn’t the piano a stand-in?

She finally knew why the actress who came out before cried and said, "I can't do it."

Although there were variables, Chen Yan did not panic and nodded slightly: "Okay."

There is a piano score on the grand piano, Mendelssohn's "Song of No Lyrics", probably to test whether the actors have the quality of music.

Chen Yan picked up the score, "Do I have to play this song?"

Wang Yufeng shook his head and said, "You can play whatever you want."

Chen Yan nodded with a smile, put "The Song of No Literature" aside, took a deep breath, and put his slender fingertips on the keys. The deputy director and the producer were waiting with interest, wanting to see how many brushes this newcomer has.

But when she started playing, their faces changed drastically.

Liszt's "Chasing the Snow", one of the twelve super skill etudes.

The melody is complex and varied, the strength and weakness of the chromatic scale are properly controlled, and the jump is so clean that it is amazing. There is also the devilish speed, and the changes in hands make people dazzled.

After the song ended, the few people stared at each other with big eyes and looked at each other. In the end, Wang Yufeng coughed dryly, breaking the silence: "Chen Yan, you have been learning piano for a long time, have you?"

"Yes."

“Have you won the award?”

Chen Yan nodded: "I won the Liszt International Youth Piano Competition two years ago."

The director's pen was shocked and the few people looked at each other and saw the surprise that could not be concealed in the other's eyes.

"Cough." Wang Yufeng coughed again, "Your piano must have reached our level. Now test your acting skills."

In the play "The Legend of Heaven", it is difficult to complete the role of the sister as a starting worker. She is a very strong woman, but she occasionally shows her fragile side in front of people she is close to.

Therefore, how to integrate these two seemingly contradictory personalities extremely tests the quality of the actors.

The deputy director picked a scene: "You just imagine me as the male lead."

My sister's official partner is an entrepreneur from a well-known listed company. She is young and promising. At the same time, she is also doing well in private equity and venture capital. She is an existence that everyone looks up to in the financial industry.

Chen Yan read the words twice, looked up and said, "Director Wang, I'm ready."

"Let's get started."

This scene tells the story of her sister's company's capital chain on the verge of breaking. She met many investors and asked for help, but they all returned in a bad mood. But at this time, the male protagonist opened his mouth and said he was willing to take a look at her project.

Deputy Director: "Jin Yu, tell me about your project, I only have ten minutes."

When the sound was answered, Chen Yan's expression had changed.

Her eyes contained a certain hope, but if you looked carefully, it was mixed with a trace of despair of fear of hope. Tolerance and firmness were her understanding of this scene.

This was her only chance, she had to seize it.

Chen Yan pursed his lips, first described the company's business, introduced the company's starting process and current situation, and then said in a humble and arrogant manner: "I hope you invest 30 million."

The deputy director sneered exaggeratedly: "Do you think your small company is worth so much money? What's more, it's on the verge of bankruptcy now."

Chen Yan's eyes condensed, and he looked up to meet his sarcastic gaze: "All startups were very small when they started. What really mattered is the core technology and professional management team it mastered." Her eyes were Falley, "I think we just need an opportunity."

The deputy director stood up and walked forward, and said coldly: "The opportunity is not something you want. This world is so cruel. You can go back."

Chen Yan didn't move. She pursed her lips and looked at him almost stubbornly, her eyes stubbornly. The two looked at each other, and sparks seemed to appear in the air.

"I guess when you first entered the industry, you also longed for an opportunity?" Her voice was soft, but every word was firm: "I won't let you down."

She just stared at him like that and said slowly, "I just need a chance."

He looked at her, as if he remembered himself when he was a newcomer - he ran around day and night to see different investors, but nine out of ten were coldly turned away.

He endured failure and ridicule again and again, but he never gave up.

Her expression just now looked very much like herself at that time.

For a moment, he was moved by it.

Not only did the deputy director move, director Wang Yufeng also smiled unconsciously - Chen Yan has a good control over the characters' psychology.

It is a big gamble to live by death. She is not perfect, and she is a weak woman, but she has to make herself stronger in the face of difficulties and obstacles. Because she knows that she has so many brothers who work together, she can't be sorry for them.

"Go back and wait for news."

Chen Yan quickly bowed and said, "Thank you, Director Wang!"

After she left, Wang Yufeng asked: "What do you think of her?"

The other two nodded: "The appearance is nothing to say, and piano skills are also a plus for strong points. The key is that she can interpret the contrast between her sister and her sister."

Wang Yufeng also said with satisfaction: "The acting skills are better than the previous few." He stroked the pen, and his eyes were filled with contemplation.

"Dingling!" The phone kept ringing.

Shi Lei had just finished taking a shower and walked out of the bathroom, wiping her hair while picking up: "Hey?"

The agent's voice came from the other end: "Hey, Lei Lei..."

"When will I join the group?" She leaned leisurely on the sofa and took a sip of red wine. "Mr. Guo told me that if possible, I would like to go as soon as possible. I don't know what Director Wang said?"

"Uh, Lei Lei..."

Hearing his desire to speak, Shi Lei asked in confusion: "Does he want to push it back? But haven't I arranged a new variety show?"

"No," the agent finally had time to clarify the misunderstanding and said in sweat, "That... we didn't choose..."

"What did you say?!"

Shi Lei almost sprinkled the red wine on the carpet: "Didn't choose it? How is that possible!"

Chen Yan on this end received a call from Li Wen to congratulate him: "Director Wang finally decided to be the heroine, great!"

"Is that so good?"

Li Wen: "You don't seem to be very surprised."

"That's, a talented girl like me, whom do they choose if they don't choose me?"

Li Wen: "…"

vomit.

"After that being said, this is the first time I know that you play the piano so well."

Chen Yan laughed twice, then said lightly: "Isn't the old man who has been a child?"

Li Wen knew that she and her father had never dealt with each other, so he didn't say anything, but just reminded him: "I'll try to figure out the role these days and I'll join the group in a week."

She replied, "I know, don't worry."

A few days before joining the group, there was nothing else except reading the script. Chen Yan made an appointment with Xu Lu to have a meal and then make nails.

Xu Lu is her high school classmate and used to live opposite her dormitory. Coincidentally, the other party also chose the performance major after graduating from the college entrance examination and signed with the Yanyan's rival company Tianyu Media.

Later, Xu Lu joked: "We may have been in love and killing each other all our lives."

In the afternoon, because Xu Lu wanted to take a set of promotional photos in the company, she delayed a little time and asked Chen Yan to come to Tianyu Media to find her directly.

Chen Yan was originally worried that the company would not allow him to enter, but he seemed to have not encountered anyone along the way, so he took the elevator up.

The elevator stopped to the tenth floor and opened the door. She was browsing Weibo. When she saw someone coming in, she was about to press the closing key.
