Chapter 68 Evenly matched
Dila Wu, one of the godsons of the great eunuch Wu Liangfu [Li Jianyi], is timid, kind-hearted, optimistic, and honest with a hint of shrewdness.
In the early stage, he couldn't bear to see the eunuch being tortured and was suffocated to death by the wet paper. When Wu Liangfu [Li Jianyi] was executing the execution, he poked holes in the paper and was scolded by Wu Liangfu.
Later, when Wu Liangfu [Li Jianyi] received the same punishment, he cried and poked a hole in the mouth of his godfather, and was pushed away by Sony [Zheng Tianyong]. It may be a bit exaggerated to say that it was the finishing touch, but it can definitely be regarded as the beginning and the end. .
Xu Kun was eyeing this role when he was discussing the script with Li Jianyi.
This character's character is very similar to Bao Qiang's own characteristics. Even Bao Qiang's sharp voice became an advantage when playing the eunuch.
In addition, Bao Qiang has made great progress over the past year, so Xu Kun feels that if he prepares well, he has a good chance of winning this role.
The premise is that you don't meet anyone with a strong background.
But if the relationship is strong enough, why would he play the role of a young eunuch?
As for some people who say that maintaining a strong image is not good enough...
From the name Daola Wu, we know that this character's appearance characteristics are that he looks weak, timid, and not threatening--these are completely consistent with the image of Baoqiang.
Moreover, Wu Liangfu did not think about sending people to the emperor's side, and even said clearly: As long as I am still alive, none of you can even think of sending people to the emperor's side.
Later, the reason why he recommended Dao Lawu was not because Dao Lawu was lovable, but because Dao Lawu was honest, kind and filial.
After hearing Xu Kun's brief introduction to the situation, Baoqiang's eyes widened. He picked up the script fragments that Xu Kun had copied in private and returned to his room happily.
"Hey, you guys should clear the table first!"
Xu Kun shouted after him, and when he saw Baoqiang rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to get out pen and paper, looking like he was going to stay up all night to fight, he turned around and said to Deng Chao, "I invited the guests, and Baoqiang served the dishes. Now it's your turn to clean up." table."
Deng Chao: "..."
After clearing the table and sending the washed dishes and chopsticks back to the restaurant, Deng Chao returned to Baoqiang's room and saw Baoqiang lying on the folding table with a floor-length mirror opposite him.
Sometimes he smeared his face, sometimes he looked up in the mirror and talked to himself, winking, completely immersed in studying the script, and had long forgotten about the guest Deng Chao.
Deng Chao sat on the bed opposite for a while, neither talking nor sleeping. He just felt uncomfortable all over.
When he was in the school dormitory, he was the hardest-working and craziest striver among his classmates. Who would have thought that today it would suddenly be the opposite.
After a slight hesitation, he moved to Xu Kun's room next door.
At this time, Xu Kun had just called Zhang Yong to confirm the 'gift'. In the past, he had the impression that his hometown was dilapidated and had nothing to ask for. Who would have imagined that it actually harbored many hermit masters.
This time the county invited Liu Fuchang, who is a protégé of the famous calligrapher Huang Qi, to paint brushstrokes and ink. He has won many awards in China, and his calligraphy works were once sent to Japan, South Korea, Singapore and other places for touring exhibitions.
Of course, the most important thing is that Liu Fuchang is a native of RY and is currently listed in the county cultural bureau. It is most suitable for him to write this calligraphy.
After putting down the phone, he saw Deng Chao coming in from the outside, and he couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong? They're all doing this, so you won't be so noisy by the security guards that you can't sleep, right?"
"No."
Deng Chao pulled up a chair and sat across from Xu Kun - after Baoqiang moved next door, Xu Kun removed one of the beds, so the room was much more spacious.
After hesitating for a moment, Deng Chaocai said seriously: "Can we do the audition scene again yesterday? I was nervous at that time and my acting was a bit sloppy."
Xu Kun originally wanted to continue studying the script, but seeing the earnest look on his face, he readily agreed.
So the two moved the tables and chairs out again, treating the courtyard as the envoys of the Jinluan Palace, and began to reenact the confrontation between the king and his ministers.
This time Deng Chao's performance was indeed much better than during the audition. Although he couldn't compare with veteran actors like Li Jianyi, he was on par with Xu Kun.
Deng Chao was better than Xu Kun in detail processing and on-the-spot reaction, while Xu Kun was better because of his overwhelming momentum and more tension in his movements - this was the experience he learned from Sun Honglei.
The two performed three performances in a row, but they still felt that they were not fully enjoying themselves.
Deng Chao pointed at Xu Kun's script and asked tentatively: "How about we change it?"
This guy obviously has a small calculation in mind. But now the two of them are familiar with each other, and Xu Kun is in the mood again, so he doesn't care if he takes the opportunity to pry into the script.
In this way, the three of them were arguing inside and outside the house until 11:30, and then at Xu Kun's suggestion, they retreated.
…………
Then, Chen Xuebin came to see Xu Kun off specially. He admitted that he was too impatient before and always looked forward to eating a piece of hot tofu in one bite. He would definitely not be embarrassed in the future.
It's not that Xu Kun can't understand. After all, Lao Chen is already 37 years old and has been in this industry for seven or eight years. Who doesn't want to make a breakthrough before the age of 40?
Arrive at Nanluogu Lane.
There was another group of warblers in the courtyard, and some of them were familiar faces - after yesterday's audition for Wu Yunzhu [Concubine Dong E] was rejected, she came to audition for Kangxi's biological mother, Tong Layue.
Although he has said it many times, Xu Kun couldn't help but sigh when he saw the beautiful girls in this courtyard. There are really many beauties in the entertainment industry.
In order to leave a good impression on his seniors, Xu Kun did not dare to take a closer look, so he went into the west wing room as usual, studying the script while waiting for the assistant actor's audition.
He originally thought that those who auditioned for Tong Layue would choose to play opposite the Queen and Wu Liangfu. After all, those two scenes were more conflicting.
But in fact, out of the twelve girls who auditioned in the morning, eight chose him as their 'uncle'.
This puzzled Xu Kun.
It wasn't until lunch that Hao Lei revealed the answer to him: "Teacher Li is an experienced actor at first glance, and let's talk about that scene... Tong Layue is the weak one in front of me, the queen. If they don't choose, who else can you choose? ?”
Xu Kun was speechless. He really didn't expect that he would be treated as a soft persimmon.
Although this kind of emotionally delicate scenes is indeed Xu Kun's shortcoming at the moment, among the Eight Immortals across the Sea in the morning, there were at least seven who were obviously not as good as him.
There is another person who can barely keep up, and has been retained by the director as a backup.
In the past few days, Xu Kun has also noticed that Director Liu Heng plans to reveal two or three alternatives for each main role, and then conduct a second round of re-examinations.
So as long as Hao Lei's juniors don't come too late, they still have a chance to squeeze in.
Because he had slept late and gotten up early these past few days, Xu Kun couldn't hold on anymore at noon, so he leaned on a chair and took a nap for half an hour.
When I got up and went to wash up outside, I saw that the audition actors had changed again, with about four or five new people.
So he quietly asked Hao Lei: "Sister Lei, which one is your junior sister?"
"It's not here yet."
Hao Lei was obviously a little anxious. She rubbed her handkerchief with her legs together and said anxiously: "It's supposed to be time. What's going on with that girl?!"
Tsk~
This sister also changes every day. She was a lively little girl when she first came here, but on the third day she became a little more noble and a little unruly.
Xu Kun secretly retracted his previous judgment in his heart. Even if Li Xiaolu performed in her true colors, he might not be able to win her.
As expected, Xu Kun assisted in two consecutive performances in the afternoon and successfully cut off two flower bones that had not yet bloomed.
"Coming, coming!"
Xu Kun was just about to go back to the west wing to wait for orders when he was intercepted by Hao Lei Fengfenghuohuo.
Behind her was a young girl with a suitcase in one hand and a camera in the other.
Seeing Xu Kun looking at her, the girl stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and said in a soft and milky voice: "I'm sorry, it happened to be 12 o'clock when I got here, so I wanted to go to the Central Theater first. Unexpectedly, I accidentally got lost."
As he spoke, he subconsciously hid the camera behind his back.
