Chapter 141 Si Ran Audition
Chapter 141 Si Ran Audition
Because they wanted to take their relatives to visit the campus, after lunch and a short rest, they drove two cars to the school. Knowing that there would be a lot of people coming, Ji Zhengsong asked Butler Lin to arrange a driver to drive a commercial vehicle here in the morning.
It was much more convenient to travel now. Yuan Luo took her family around the school and was about to go to class. Then she said to the group, "You can wander around. It's okay if you get lost. I'll come find you after class. Just tell me what's nearby."
After Yuanluo went to class, they all wandered around the school. The scenery in Pingda was nice and they didn't feel bored. Yu Qin even regretted not asking Pengcheng for leave to bring him here.
He should also be allowed to see what this famous university is like, so that he can work harder, study well, and strive to get into a good university in the future.
After class, Yuanluo heard her uncle say that they were resting in a pavilion by the lake, so she told them not to move and that she would come to find them after class.
Dong Lele, Ge Mubai and Geng Jiaxu heard that Yuanluo's parents from her hometown had come to the school and wanted to come over to say hello, so Yuanluo brought them over.
The three people were also very polite. They just wanted to meet people and said hello and then didn't disturb them.
While Yuanluo was immersed in the happy atmosphere with her adoptive parents and their family, Siran's class teacher also announced a piece of news.
"Director Zhao Zhang will come to the school next week to cast for a new movie. This is a rare opportunity, so the school decided to make an exception. If freshmen are selected, they will also be allowed to film. Students can give it a try."
Seeing the rumor come true, the classmates were very excited. Anyone who wants to be an actor knows one thing: it is better to become famous early.
As for how to become famous?
First of all, you need good resources. Good resources are hard to come by. There are only a few well-known directors, and good scripts are even harder to come by. What's more, there is an invisible chain of contempt in the film and television industry.
The status of those who make movies is slightly higher than those who make TV series, and Zhao Zhang is a well-known director in the film industry. Who wouldn't be excited about such a good opportunity?
Among them, Si Ran had the calmest reaction. He had acted in movies directed by famous directors before, but it seemed that he was chosen by Uncle Gu without knowing why, and then joined the crew to film. Zhao Zhang's fame is not as good as Gu Yunting's.
Si Ran felt that it was just like that, it was an opportunity and she could give it a try, but there was no need to get too excited.
Her roommate Chen Bailu was very excited. This was the first friend Yuanluo made when she was in college. The two of them had a good relationship. After class, Chen Bailu pulled Si Ran's arm and shouted, "Si Ran, let's go and try it together, okay?"
Siran decided to use the stage name Si Ran in the future. People in this circle are not surprised by it. Many actors have stage names, and classmates also like to call each other by their stage names.
Seeing Chen Bailu so excited, Siran remembered what her sister said and said, "You can give it a try. I'll go back and see if there are any small roles. I can audition then. Even just a few scenes will be fine."
"Ah? Aren't you going to try out for the leading role?" Chen Bailu knew that Si Ran had acted in a movie before, and it was a work by Gu Yunting. She originally thought that she would at least audition for the leading role this time.
"We are only freshmen, and the leading role will take too long to shoot. It will be fine if we have a chance to show our faces." Siran did not tell anyone what he knew. After the incident in high school, Siran became much more cautious and knew not to tell everything.
It is not clear who the candidate is, nor is it clear whether Zhao Zhang has agreed to the decision. If rumors are spread now, it will have an impact on her no matter who is chosen to be the female lead in the future.
She couldn't do anything about the rumors, but she didn't want the bad rumors to come from her mouth.
Chen Bailu didn't think so. She said, "I don't care. I want to try the heroine. What a rare opportunity."
Si Ran did not refute her, but just said: "If you want to try, you can, come on."
Lin Nuannuan, who was passing by, had a sarcastic smile on her face. She thought that all the efforts to prepare for the heroine were in vain, because the heroine would only be her. Others who wanted to compete with her would only become cannon fodder in the end.
Zhao Zhang's new film is called "Bu Tian Guan Xing", which is based on the life of Xu Fu, the first female fortune teller. It uses her several predictions throughout the play to show the history of the transition from Qin to Han Dynasty.
This perspective has never been explored before. Although the specific script has not been leaked, people in the industry predict that with Zhao Zhang's talent, this movie is bound to be a big hit. This is why Lin Nuannuan tried her best to get the female lead.
The Zhang and Yu families stayed in Pingzhou for a few days and returned by train on Sunday afternoon. Yuanluo wanted them to stay a few more days and tried to persuade them again and again, but Yuqin finally said that the fruit trees at home needed to be pruned and they couldn't leave without them.
Yuanluo thought about it and realized it was true, so she could only send the person to the station.
As expected, Zhao Zhang came to the school to select people on Monday. After reading part of the script, Siran wanted to try the role of Bo Ji. Although it was mainly from Xu Fu's perspective, Bo Ji was a character predicted by Xu Fu and also had a role in the movie "Bu Tian Guan Xing".
She studied the script carefully and felt that although Bo Ji did not have many scenes, she had a complete growth line and a big contrast between the beginning and the end, which posed a certain challenge to her acting skills.
Si Ran has always studied her professional courses seriously. In last year's final exam, she was the first in her major in voice, stage, image and performance. This opportunity is rare, and she wants to play a challenging role, which will also help improve her acting skills.
Therefore, during the audition, everyone else tried out for the role of the female lead Xu Fu. Zhao Zhang interviewed many people back and forth, but he didn't think any of them caught his eye.
Until Siran came on stage to interview for the role of Bo Ji.
"Hello, teachers. I'm Si Ran. Today I want to audition for the role of Bo Ji."
When Zhao Zhang heard that someone was going to interview Bo Ji, he suddenly became interested, and then assigned a challenging scene for Siran to perform on the spot.
This scene is the scene when Bo Ji was forced into Liu Bang's harem after Wei Bao's death and met Liu Bang.
Siran watched the scene, thought about it for a few minutes, and then said that he was ready.
Zhao Zhang signaled to her that she could start, and then Si Ran got into the state in a second. Her eyes were filled with panic for a moment, and she curled up in fear, with a posture of self-protection.
Then, as if she saw someone approaching, she sat on the ground and backed away in fear, asking, "Who are you, and why did you bring me here?"
Seeing that Si Ran's acting skills were pretty good, Zhao Zhang added, "I am Liu Bang. Wei Bao is dead. You should follow me from now on. Wei Bao can't protect you, but I can."
Si Ran raised her head in panic, a trace of disbelief flashed in her eyes, and then she seemed to be thinking. After a moment, she knelt on the ground and said in a gentle voice: "I am willing to serve the King of Han."
Then she raised her head slightly, raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked seductive.
