Chapter 117 Not even given a chance to audition? (Seeking a decision)
Audition room.
Xiang Yang held the confirmed cast list in his hand, and the final list was basically composed of powerful actors from Hollywood, Europe and the United States.
Except for the male lead Colin Firth and the second male lead Chris Stoll, the others are just guest appearances and there are not many scenes.
So... Liu Qianqian is on the same level as them?
Xiang Yang grinned, trembling uncontrollably, and then a smile appeared on his face, "It seems that if you insist on saying that, it's right."
But his work is not over yet, the highlight is tomorrow Actress' audition part.
That's where he needs to shine.
Men’s attire can really be understood at a glance.
Bill and Damien were also very satisfied with today's audition work. If it weren't for lack of time, they would have finished the actress aspect together.
Speaking of the actress's audition, Emma Stone was naturally mentioned during the chat between the three of them who were packing their things.
How can I put it... Regarding her performance before the mistake, the three of them felt that she performed well. But it's a pity that her choice of this role is destined to be a tragedy. No matter how well she performs, it won't be of much use.
What's more, that mistake... can also explain some problems.
Experience is not enough, the problem lies in adapting to situations.
This is the view given by Bill.
Hearing his words, Xiang Yang shrugged. He didn't understand what acting was. Anyway, he had the impression that this female star turned out to be a very capable person. Maybe this was a setback that she needed to overcome in her life.
"How about...give her another chance. I don't think Rachel performed very well in the audition just now." Damien frowned.
He still felt that Emma added more points to his impression, especially the advance preparation of cigarettes.
After speaking, he turned his attention to Bill, trying to get the producer's opinion for Emma.
Seeing Bill frowning, Xiang Yang, who originally thought that the matter had nothing to do with him, saw that he was hesitant, remembered that Tianniu had helped him get the information, and felt that what he said now was just smooth, so he said:
< br>
"The white jumpsuit designed for Inez (character name) suits her very well. You also saw her white shirt today."
"That's it..." Bill thought for a while, this Inez's character is a superficial woman from a wealthy family who loves vanity. He felt that Emma's audition today was quite good. He decided to give her another chance and nodded:
"Then I'll ask the assistant to inform her, but the details will depend on her performance tomorrow."
...
After leaving the audition venue, Xiangyang took out his phone and opened it. There were 4. Three of the missed calls were from Liu Qianqian and one was from Fan Xiaopang.
Due to the time difference, he did not play back the message but opened the text message.
Sure enough, both of them left messages for him. Of course, there were also some messages from other people in the text messages.
After checking the work-related information first, Xiang Yang looked at the personal information.
Liu Qianqian's text messages were filled with all kinds of exclamation marks "!"
After reading the text messages Xiang Yang sent her, she knew that the actor she was about to work with was not only her, but Even Liu Xiaoli was stunned.
Oscar-winning actors and actresses...
In the Chinese film industry, there are many actors and actresses who have won some European film awards. Cheng Long and Jet Li have also been recognized by the Hollywood business atmosphere, but we have to admit that, 09 There are really not many Chinese film circles that can produce internationally.
The most outstanding one in recent years is the International Chapter.
Let’s not talk about anything else. As a judge, she is indeed quite international.
A guest of the 77th Academy Awards, a lifelong judge (2005), a judge of the main competition unit of the 59th Cannes Film Festival (2006), and a judge of the short film unit of the 62nd Cannes Film Festival that will open in May.
Returning to her role as an actress, the awards she has won are honestly difficult for other actresses to achieve.
In the beginning, the main reason why she was ridiculed as an "international chapter" was that when she was interviewed by the media, she kept saying that she wanted to cooperate with world-class directors and big names in Hollywood. coffee cooperation.
Now, in front of Liu Qianqian, apart from the uninteresting director level, the cast is enough to cause a sensation in the mainland.
Of course this news has not yet spread back to China.
Even when Liu Qianqian participated in the interview, she did not mention this matter.
Before the final results were announced, Liu Xiaoli specially told Liu Qianqian to keep a low profile as much as possible. She sees it thoroughly, and it is her daughter's opportunity to participate in the production of this kind of film, but this is a piece of fat.
There is no reason to reveal the fat in your pocket.
This hasn’t been revealed yet. There has just been news about an audition. It is said that there is a Chinese character in the script. International Zhang and Fan Xiaopang have smelled it. What if...
After replying to Liu Qianqian's text message, Xiangyang clicked on the message from Fan Xiaopang.
When he saw it for the first time, he felt similar to Liu Xiaoli, but he had to admit in his heart that Fan Xiaopang definitely had capable people helping her. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known accurately that I was one of the people in charge of auditioning for this film.
"Invite yourself to dinner?"
Xiang Yang frowned when he saw the content of the text message.
Let's forget this good thing, he doesn't want to use his arm to compete with Liu Qianqian's silver teeth...
...
Back to the hotel he rented , a disappointed Emma was taking a hot bath.
She originally thought that after seeing Xiang Yang and the three of them in the audition room, she would have a better chance of winning, but she ended up being screwed up by a damn sandwich...
Thanks to the kindness of others, she reminded her of the content of the interview.
Washing her delicate skin with foam, Emma fell into self-blame.
The role in this script was outstanding, and it was the kind of challenging role she had dreamed of. She wanted to give it a try to see if she could overcome the barrier of only being accepted into bad movies.
But the reality is so cruel. After several days of careful preparation, it failed.
As for the reason for her failure, she shook her head mockingly when she thought about it. She didn't expect that she had to step over a ham sandwich.
She made a vicious look at the thought of that damn ham sandwich interrupting her performance.
I’ll eat it tonight.
One is not enough to relieve the qi, so I have to eat two!
But then, she sighed again.
Because she thought of the sketches of clothes that would be used in the movie that she saw when she was helping Xiangyang get the information.
They must be very charming when made, but it’s a pity that I can’t wear them myself.
It is the nature of every woman to love beauty, and Emma was still very attracted to the clothes above for a moment, even though they were a bit old-fashioned.
“I don’t know if he will be very disappointed with me.”
Recalling that she was embarrassed and had her mouth open at a loss, Emma wrinkled her nose vigorously. The open mouth should be enough to stuff a whole sandwich...
While she was thinking this, she suddenly heard the ringing of her cell phone outside the bathroom.
Turn off the water faucet, casually pulled a bath towel from the shelf and put it on her body, and then walked out.
The wet feet were stained with water, leaving footprints on the carpet...
...Back at the hotel, after dinner, Xiang Yang, who stayed in his room, picked up Liu Qianqian phone number.
The time difference is easy to calculate. Just add 12 hours and do a rough calculation.
Xiang Yang was a little surprised to see Liu Qianqian getting up so early.
"I thought you must be waiting for my call, so I set an alarm clock. I was really sleepy last night." After Liu Qianqian said happily, she heard Xiang Yang's reply: "Well, I'm going to prepare it today too." Get some rest early. The audition is really tiring.”
“How does it feel to sit there?”
“No, I’m just doing the rest. It’s up to Bill and Damien to make the decision.”
"Did you choose a lot today? Xiangyang, don't you know that when my mother saw the list...you saw all of them?"
"Met most of them."
" Stop, don’t talk. I will go back to France tomorrow. When we meet, you can tell me in detail, hehe..."
"Okay..."
...
Xiang Yang was planning to go to bed early, but as soon as the conversation started on the phone, the conversation didn't stop.
Everyone who has ever called your girlfriend knows that as long as she wants to talk to you, the topic will cover a range of topics that you can't imagine, and there is nothing she can't talk about.
And the content was very repetitive, and she didn’t give up until her mouth was dry. Therefore, Xiangyang didn't remember the last few times he hung up the phone. He only remembered that he kept charging during the chat, so that the next day, he climbed out of bed at Damien's urging.
Seeing his listless look, Damien frowned and said, "What did you do last night?"
"Don't mention it." Xiang Yang yawned, "Old Something is wrong, the sequelae after every flight.”
"Are you afraid of death when flying? So you are very nervous? Then why were you fine yesterday?"
"The delay was high."
He arrived with Damien and Bill sleepily. In Hollywood, when they parked the car, they saw that Xiang Yang was still a little depressed, so the three of them went to the coffee shop where they were yesterday.
While walking, the three of them were still chatting about whether they would meet Emma Stone from yesterday.
When they first arrived, they didn’t meet Emma Stone, but Xiang Yang did meet someone he didn’t know very well but knew.
Fan Xiaopang.
Beside her, there was also an international chapter sitting.
How did these two get together? Do they have a good relationship? Or did you happen to bump into it here?
Xiang Yang, who was frowning and not saying anything, was about to say hello to Bill and Damien when Fan Xiaopang, who was wearing a skirt, took off his sunglasses and greeted Xiang Yang very familiarly: " Xiang Yang, what a coincidence, we met here.”
“Haha.” Xiang Yang twitched his lips, what a coincidence! You are clearly squatting here with me!
"Let me introduce to you, Xiang Yang, this is International Zhang. You should have seen many of her movies."
Looking at Fan Xiaopang, Xiang Yang nodded to International Zhang and forced a smile. .
"Hello, Teacher Xiang." International Zhang smiled.
"Teacher?" Xiang Yang was surprised, almost laughing, and kept saying that he was not worthy. He didn't dare to keep a low profile here, so he quickly introduced Bill and Damien.
He was a little uncomfortable with others trying to steal his girlfriend's role, but he didn't dislike it.
Should he say it or not, it is respectable that people are still willing to come and fight for every opportunity despite knowing that there is little hope, so he should do what he should do on the scene.
It’s impossible to show off someone’s face without even introducing them.
Besides, Bill knew International Chapter. He had met him several times at parties before, so he was more familiar with the actor than he was.
When they came out with coffee, they came to the outfield again. Bill Nye had been sitting and communicating with the international chapter.
The result of the communication was that he regretted that the film did not provide auditions for the role they wanted, and made it clear that this role had already been selected.
I hope they don't waste time here.
He said all this for the sake of the International Chapter. If it was Fan Xiaopang alone, he would not waste even half a minute with him.
Seeing Xiang Yang come back with coffee, Fan Xiaopang, who wanted to give it a try, looked up at him and said softly:
"Xiang Yang, this character..."
She is different from International Chapter, who has already achieved some results internationally. She really wants to get this role to improve herself.
"Little Fatty Sister." Xiangyang smiled stiffly, "I really can't help it. I'm just a costume director. I won't interfere with the character's affairs."
"Well..." Fan Xiaopang was disappointed. pursed his lips.
She never thought that after asking so many people to get the news and rush here, she wouldn't even have a chance to audition.
This is somewhat shocking.
Also hit was International Zhang, who has a foreign boyfriend and is fluent in English. After communicating with her, she found out that she was treated in the same way as Fan Xiaopang, and she was really speechless. But she couldn't say anything. If she had known this was the result, she would have asked yesterday and she wouldn't have waited stupidly.
Of these three people, she couldn't afford to offend the producer. The director is just a decoration. As for Xiang Yang, whom I just met, he is in charge of costumes.
Bill Nye wouldn’t give her this face, so she could only resolve her grievances on her own.
"Okay, we have something to do so we'll leave first. I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate with you next time."
Bill's words were very tactful and appropriate. In fact, if it weren't for the relationship between Xiangyang and the others, According to the agreement, he really wanted to see the performances of these two actors. Putting aside the one named Fan, at least the International Chapter was worth considering.
But who let them not have Liu's good luck.
After he finished speaking cheerfully, he motioned to Xiang Yang and Damien to pay attention to the time.
"Then let's go first." Xiang Yang said to the two of them.
"Xiang Yang, if you are free tonight, I'll treat you to dinner. I don't have any friends here. If I don't audition, I won't have anything to do." Fan Xiaopang did not mention that she gave Xiang Yang yesterday About the phone call.
"Ah, I'll go back to Paris tonight, maybe next time. I'll treat you when you come to Paris again."
"Well, that's okay."
"Xiang Yang, can we exchange contact information? I want to talk to you about some fashion matters." Seeing that Fan Xiaopang had Xiang Yang's phone number, Jiujiang Zhang frowned and asked immediately.
"Let me give you my business card." Xiangyang naturally took out the business card box from his bag and handed one to the other party, then said: "If it's a work matter, I didn't receive the call. If so, just send me an email.”
“Okay, go ahead and do your work, thank you.”
I know that people who work in Europe have the habit of checking their email every day. .
After leaving the cafe and confirming the distance between them, Damien joked: "Okay, Xiang. I didn't expect that your face is quite popular in your country. People take the initiative. I want your contact information.”
"Haha," Xiang Yang shook his head, "I just benefited from you, but thank you."
Damien smiled, "Why are you so polite? I know it's inappropriate for you to refuse verbally."
"But Xiang," Bill, who was silent on the side, suddenly spoke: "You have to ask Liu to hurry up. Although this role is very suitable for her, her acting skills..."
" Bill, when I met with them last time, Liu’s French had improved. As for her acting skills, I don’t think there’s much of a problem with this role. After all, it was created based on the feeling she gave us, and there weren’t many scenes.” Meen immediately stated that he could understand Bill's concerns.
But after watching Liu Qianqian perform several times, he felt... there is a lot of room for improvement!
"She is already learning." Xiang Yang's voice was also full of worry.
I hope she can perform well opposite Colin Firth, a powerful actor.
At least, she promised yesterday that she would hurry up when she returns
