Chapter 28: Hmmmmmmmm???
Original Translations: Crafted with Care, No Unauthorized Reposting Allowed.
This voice is like a piece of snow falling on the edge of a cliff, lightly sweeping over the tip of the heart.
The snow passing by is as unreal as his presence.
Is it speaking to me?
Jing Rong lifted his wet face, his eyelashes were stained with crystal water, and a familiar face appeared in the dense.
The visitor was washing his hands, too, and didn't even look at him.
There seems to be no one else around, and this time the morning auditions are coming to an end.
Xi Gu dried the tissue from under the bust mirror, and when Jing Rong was still in a daze, he handed him some tissues as well.
Jing Rong took it, and the whole action was a bit bewilderingly well-behaved.
Xi Gu looked at Jing Rong, who was slightly dumbfounded, and said with a smile, "I think I at least look better than the camera, so instead of concentrating on the camera, why don't you look at the person you're playing against?"
Obviously, this is just a joke.
Xi Gu wanted to relax Jing Rong in this witty way.
In Xi Gu's view, a living person has more value than a dead object.
Jing Rong before the memory of the original owner does not have a substantial feeling, until a physical experience to know the original owner face the camera is what the situation.
The original owner is not afraid of ordinary footage, but this kind of similar to the attention, under the play being focused on the camera, otherwise the original play rehearsals have been fine, why the original owner is to the stage only to find this disease.
Between this relatively harsh reason, it is necessary to find a drama team to try out the scene in order to thoroughly understand the feeling to control, even if the control still needs time.
His experience in his last life, from nothing to something, has allowed him to at least think of solutions.
"Will you still play with me?" Jing Rong asked, after the accident just now, Xi Gu is not willing to be normal, look at the attitude of other people will know.
As I have heard before, Xi Gu takes care of his juniors, regardless of gender. He has a very good reputation and reputation outside, and students who are just starting out can learn something from him, and Xi Gu is not shy about passing on his experience.
Although Xi Gu's black fans are quite numerous, his fighting fans are known to be tough in the industry, and their slogan is to guard the best Xi Gu in the world.
"This..." Xi Gu took a few steps, stopped, and smiled back, "It might depend on whether you're still shaking later?"
Jing Rong also could not help but smile back, he wondered if it was his own illusion, Xi Gu did not seem to use the bathroom, just now in and out of time is also very short, because he simply did not hear the flushing sound.
Jing Rong has some sense of the tenderness that belongs exclusively to Xi Gu, a subtle softness hidden under the detachment and coldness that cannot be found if one does not look closely.
When Jing Rong returned to the waiting area again, there were few people left, but I didn't expect that many students from Class B were still there, not knowing if they were waiting for someone or something else, Jing Rong had no interest in knowing.
They seemed to want to come up and didn't know what to say.
Jing Rong ignored them and sat quietly in his seat with his eyes closed, adjusting his state.
This feeling of not being able to move in the face of adversity reminds Jing Rong of his own childhood, when he grew up in the limelight and became accustomed to the presence of reporters and paparazzi from time to time since he was two or three years old.
The media is not exaggerating when they say his family is a family of actors and actresses. Jing Rong's grandparents were national level actors, his maternal grandfather was a singer and pianist, and his parents' generation has been working in Hollywood for years, and his eldest and second sisters have their own achievements.
Jing Rong does not know what others would feel in that environment, he always felt like a duck in a flock of swans when he was a child, the original owner just entered the Xie family is a feeling, he is somewhat empathetic.
While everyone around him is doing the same thing, he only wants to do something that has nothing to do with acting, which is about another form of rebellion.
He grew up with a diverse education at home, studying music, dance, martial arts, etc., but he still spends a lot of time studying other interests. He ended up studying science and technology, studying electronic information and accessories, to everyone's surprise.
His family is very open and supportive of whatever he wants to do.
Until he worked very hard still did not get the corresponding results, in the depression when the family suggested that he could try acting.
Since all other roads are blocked, why not try the closest road to you?
What you reject is not acting, what you reject is only the fear that you will disappoint us, what if we will never be disappointed in you?
Jing Rong always remembers the warmth in his heart when he heard these words.
He inherited the talent of the Rong family, but talent is only talent, is the need for a long time to polish.
Without polishing it will always be just an insignificant raw stone.
He started later than others and had to use several times more effort than normal to catch up, refining himself a little in the disappointment and blow.
He would choose to act, not only because it was the long-cherished wish of the original owner, but also because his skill points are here.
Jing Rong covered his face and sat quietly bent over.
Several students looked at his lonely back from afar and seemed to feel Jing Rong's depression as he was knocked to the bottom.
No matter how Jin Lv bullied this person in the past, he was silent in response, never so low, what exactly happened inside just now?
Originally they already wanted to leave, but look at Jing Rong's look and feel particularly unethical to leave, do not want to open it.
Leping Ji hesitated, but took out his phone and took a picture of his back and sent it to Ling Xie.
Leping Ji: Why don't you invest in one for Jing Rong?
Ling Xie was quick to reply this time: Heh.
Heh just one word, just once.
Leping Ji's mouth twitched, still the cold and ruthless young leader of the Xie family he knew.
You're practically plastic brothers, aren't you?
This morning's audition was almost over, and fifteen minutes later the staff called Jing Rong's number.
In this short period of time, Jing Rong suppressed all the gloomy emotions, and his back was instantly straightened, as if all the loss and hardship just now had disappeared.
Failure is nothing, Jing Rong is not afraid of failure, but the failure to break the confidence of their own.
Once again, they entered and still got the same scrutiny from the judges, but this time it was a little shorter than the last one.
Jing Rong's afterglow still shows the camera, which is inevitable.
Here is the audition session, in order to select the right role, sometimes the director needs to play back to see their audition footage.
Jing Rong is still trembling slightly, trying to drive out the muscle memory of the original owner.
He was in a better state, just a little better than a moment ago, and muscle memory doesn't disappear overnight.
The assistant director and the scriptwriter had long since taken Jing Rong out of the selection, so they only glanced at him and then discussed in whispers the few people they had just noticed, and their discussion was even very focused, not caring about Jing Rong's presence at all. For them to start a day later will be more expenses, naturally scrambling for time.
It was almost time for lunch, and the other staff members had reached the point where they were impatient to wait and just wanted to finish early for dinner and lunch break, so they were not in the mood to watch Jing Rong's possible entire crotch-pulling performance.
Knock knock.
Jing Rong restrained himself and looked in the direction of the sound.
It was Xi Gu, who was tapping on the table.
Remind him once again, don't look at the camera and don't look around you, right now, you are just a man who needs a chance.
Xi Gu walked up to Jing Rong and gave him back the parts he had already marked for emphasis: "First, watch the clip you're going to play and get familiar with the character."
Although Xi Gu's attitude was ambiguous, he once again gave Jing Rong a role.
If this time is the same as before, even Xi Gu is unlikely to give him another chance.
The play is adapted from the novel, Jing Rong chose to try out for the role of one of the main characters, the original form of the novel is the history of this world, once the power of the eunuch. This eunuch began at the end of the road, step by step, the favored seventh prince pushed to the throne, he also became a very well-known eunuch in history.
But there is another interesting rumor that the eunuch was said to be handsome and beautiful, which, together with his own legend, led to his later great fame.
Wild history says that this castrated Alpha was only a fake eunuch, and that he and the new emperor were probably lovers, otherwise why would the new emperor, who loathed the castrati, have repeatedly made exceptions for him?
And in fact, the wild history was also allowed to exist by the new emperor at that time, so the novel directly positions the two as lovers.
The story of the seventh prince Hua Shao, the son of the Chancellor, and the eunuch Qianming Fu is the subject of "Royal Power", a film that will naturally have an artistic twist. The style is very different from the previous film Lota, so there are many people in the industry who are looking forward to the new director's Waterloo.
Hua Shao's role is played by Xi Gu, the role of the son of the Chancellor is also basically determined, but the role of eunuch Qianming Fu has never been decided, and it is obvious that the role of Qianming Fu is heavier than that of the son of the Chancellor.
Jing Rong was the first to look at the role in an email from his class teacher, Mr. Hu, because of his complexity and it was so challenging.
He had this episode in hand, which was early in the story.
Qianming Fu after entering the palace to learn the rules of the palace, because of handsome appearance by one of the four concubines of the De Fei, said: "I am in the palace, is the lack of individual person."
A very subtle phrase, Qianming Fu how can not hear, but is the De Fei want to find amusement.
Qianming Fu was humiliated and refused several times, but De Fei held herself back and did not force her.
I thought it would be over, but Qianming Fu's companions have done some big things and could face execution.
Qianming Fu learned the hard way and decided to take the risk to seek the favor of Princess De again. But what is Princess De, the best in the harem, itself want to get her favor of many people, you a small eunuch who does not know what to count.
Now, it's time to play the scene where Qianming Fu gets the attention of Princess De again.
"I will cooperate to play your rival role as the Lady De Fei, are you ready?" Xi Gu looked at him.
Jing Rong nodded, the director shouted "start", but after shouting, also began to look at the previous performance of a few outstanding people, the mind is not on it, they do not have much time, in the middle of a trip to the Venice Film Festival, and want to use a minute as ten minutes.
Consort sitting on a chair, Qianming Fu half kneeling on the floor.
De Fei shook her fan with one hand, her expression was full of her natural arrogance and dignity, looking at the minion kneeling at her feet, and slowly said, "There are many things that this palace is willing to pretend to be deaf and dumb. But as for people, they should have self-awareness."
The slender hand of De Fei hooked Qianming Fu's lower jaw and was rubbing it a little, ambiguously and mercilessly.
Qianming Fu's sweat fell straight down and his body trembled slightly, looking like he was nervous, but in reality everyone knew he was still getting over his phobia.
The body is not acting, but ......
The screenwriter suddenly noticed Jing Rong was forced to raise his head, if you ignore the trembling of the body, the eyes with a trace of indifference, a trace of disgust, but more yielded to the power under the soft, there is drama!
The screenwriter pulled the assistant director and whispered, "Look."
The assistant director, who was not expecting it, also rested his gaze on the two who were in an extraordinarily tense atmosphere when he noticed the sudden change of eyes, a sudden tension in the live ornamentation that made people's heads tingle.
The discussion faded from becoming less, to fading out, with almost everyone watching the exciting rivalry intently.
The two people performing in the middle were not affected and continued to act out the passages from the stage book.
Consort: "When the palace likes, see you all good; do not like, you are dead just dirty ground, understand?"
Qianming Fu, as if he were a tamed lion, contained a hint of desperation, and his voice sounded like he was squeezing it out from between his teeth, "What can the slave do to make Her Highness take his anger off?"
De Fei did not care, waved her hand: "Tired, you go back."
Qianming Fu knew that he could never leave now, and if he did, everything would be irretrievable.
He had no choice but to take the risk, his face covered in fine sweat, only a pair of bright eyes particularly attractive, in which was precipitated the determination of the possibility of being dragged out and caned, knowing how treacherous what he did next was.
His eyes burst with the desire for life, the desire for power.
He suddenly stood up, elegantly dusted off his body, and walked step by step towards Consort De.
It seems that Consort De did not expect this person suddenly seemed to be a different person, silently walking towards her, she could not help but back up.
But in the end, she was trapped between him and the wall by the man she regarded as the lowest of all lackeys.
He looked at her from above, silently controlling all her attention.
That is a kind of Alpha innate advantage, De Fei then high power, she is just a small woman who needs to be pampered by a man, and apparently the old emperor can not meet her this.
"Don't you come over, you, you're committing a crime below!" Consort De's eyes were completely flustered.
Qianming Fu slowly approached her and almost kissed her, but missed, exhaling in her ear: "There is something that the slave wants you to know, the slave's kissing skills are particularly good."
Xi Gu just felt his heart beating in his throat. For a moment, he really thought Jing Rong was going to kiss him.
After Jing Rong had already let go of him, the ambiguous and intense scent between the two was washed away by the cold air that was poured in.
Xi Gu now realizes that it is all drama, he slowly closed his eyes, eyelashes trembling badly.
I don't want people to see him being looked at by Jing Rong's eyes with dominance and doting, and his heart is not his own.
I knew it was an act, so why did my heart beat so fast that it exploded?
Director Yu Liu Several people were a little bit in disbelief when they saw such a performance.
Just now that paragraph is the first time Qianming Fu show their true nature, what softness is an illusion, this unwillingness to be at the mercy of fate nature is Qianming Fu. And he and De Fei, at the beginning is a woman on top of a man, but in the same space, to turn into a man on top of a woman, is a very test of both acting skills. And the attraction between each other.
This section of many people have played before, but almost no one can show this twist and turn of the tug-of-war to hook.
This acting skills, said he pulled the crotch? Who gave the courage.
I'm not sure I've been overwhelmed by Xi Gu, especially in the latter part, the atmosphere is almost in Jing Rong's hands, he wants to give birth to Princess De, to die on the death of Princess De.
From the beginning of the minion, all of a sudden became the controller, which makes people numb conversion, Jing Rong do natural also in line with the nature of Qianming Fu, this is a dormant in the minion of the vicious wolf ah!
Yu Liu was the first to look back, and looked at Jing Rong with a slightly different look.
A little admiration, and a little regret.
"Ahem, go back first and wait for the notice."
After Jing Rong left, the scene was completely lively.
Screenwriter: "Is this what you call, a disgrace to the acting world, not being able to act, only shaking?"
The assistant director's face was completely dark: "I've never seen him act either, so how would I know how he actually is!"
Xi Gu calmed down his pounding heart, and when the director looked over, Xi Gu at least outwardly regained his composure.
"It's the first time I've seen you get distracted by the other side in an audition." To put it objectively, Xi Gu's play just now was not particularly good, almost being led into the scene by Jing Rong.
Xi Gu shook his head, a little excited and a little expectant: "The future is young and fearful."
Xi Gu will help Jing Rong, just to repay the favor, until he feels fit. But he never expected Jing Rong to be so amazing to him, it was so unexpected.
"You mean you picked him?"
"He is a gifted player who can easily get into the scene, something that many actors cannot do in their lifetime." Xi Gu says objectively.
Yu Liu: "But he has a fatal flaw, his mental illness is still very serious, just now the whole expression and eyes in place, but physically, has been shaking, body is also sweating, if he can not overcome this, this opportunity will not fall on his head. And all the crew will not accept such an actor with a handicap."
The assistant director: "Jiarui Xun is more suitable than him, his play is not brilliant but also not too much wrong, very stable, the most important thing is that he has the support of the main investors behind, do we want to give up him, choose a fledgling, and may pull the crotch Jing Rong?"
Deputy director is not unreasonable, but the most colorful is Jing Rong, the crowd is caught in a dilemma.
Xi Gu looked under his hand, Jiarui Xun's information sheet, his fingers could not help but pick at it, almost picking a hole.
Xi Gu says calmly, "With Jing Rong, it was easier for me to get into the scene, which was crucial in some of the later scenes of intense conflict. But with Jiarui Xun, I had a hard time getting into the scene, and most importantly, the thought of playing a kiss scene with him made me want to vomit a little."
Xi Gu rarely gives face to anyone, he has been in the entertainment industry since he was a teenager and knows how not to offend people easily.
But just now and Jiarui Xun scene, the other party almost to really kiss up, so he almost want to beat people to paralysis, this anger is still not quelled.
The assistant director teased, " Jing Rong is fine?"
Xi Gu froze for a moment: "......" I don't know, the rest didn't even cross my mind, he only had gratitude for Jing Rong.
Yu Liu comforted Xi Gu: "Your first kiss on screen, will not be taken casually, or your fans will spray me to death. If you can't, you can borrow a position or get a body double, but I hope you can accept emotional scenes slowly. I also understand that for every Omega, this is a challenge, but we are in the acting world and you have to look at it as a career."
"I understand." I'm just plain sick of Alpha.
"You still prefer Jing Rong after seeing so many people?"
"At least his acting will not drag me and the whole crew down." Xi Gu didn't deny it.
It was Xi Gu's words that made Yu Liu happy. Yu Liu is a literary film director turned feature film director, and after his first success, many people are still waiting to see him laugh.
"The audition is still a few days away, so let's see if any of them stand out."
After auditioning the last few people, the crew was ready to take a break.
At this point the staff handed Xi Gu a note, Xi Gu: "Who sent this?"
The staff only handed out the notes and did not know who delivered them.
Xi Gu opened the note and there was a rose pattern overlaid on the bottom, which read: Want to know who I am? Come to the rooftop.
Remember, one person.
Signed: Your Knight of the Rose.
Xi Gu, not knowing how many times she had seen such threatening confessions, fished the taser out of her bag and got on the elevator without attracting anyone's attention.
If not this time, there will be another time, it is better to lure the snake out of the hole.
Twenty minutes ago, Jing Rong slowly walked out of the room after an audition.
He wiped the sweat from his face, looked at the limbs that were still trembling slightly, and sighed secretly.
Alas, a little bit to come.
Just coming out, I saw the class B students who hadn't left yet.
Jing Rong walked over, "You guys aren't waiting for me, are you?" As much as I hate to think so, you guys do look suspicious.
Some people shook their heads, others nodded, and others smiled awkwardly.
Leping Ji stood out as a representative: "That, you won't think twice about it. Just one failure, you ...... don't worry about it, it's nothing, most of us here will be brushed off."
Because just now Jing Rong's appearance is really a bit scary, very kind of in a desperate taste.
Jing Rong cried and laughed, this is what and what, he just thought of a few past life experiences.
Jing Rong casually said the most modern words: "How is it possible, I still have a large fortune to inherit, what a pity to die."
Crowd: no sympathy at all, just want to beat him up.
At this time the network has not yet begun to popular what # I am miserable, but I have a building to share # words, the crowd only feel good and funny, feel that previously did not know Jing Rong, in fact, this person seems to have an interesting soul.
Interesting soul to see this group waiting here, should also not only worry about their own suicide.
He said: "The cause is on me, I can not be blamed. What happens after, will not be pursued. So don't worry about something superfluous, I'm not that boring."
It is only after knowing the identity, afraid that he will wait for the opportunity to retaliate.
Not to say that the original owner did not mean it at all, he himself is very lazy, there is this time to sleep more than a few bad.
" Jing Rong , we're not...ugh."
In fact, Jing Rong really spread out to understand, but they are a bit embarrassed.
Jing Rong said what he wanted to say and walked out of the building.
Today's audition location is rented, in downtown, this moment outside the road actually along the road around a circle of police cordon.
Not far away, the crowd you saw in the cab earlier in the line was coming from a distance, shouting slogans under their breath.
Jing Rong saw them crossing the traffic light and was suddenly blessed.
He thought about what was a point he had forgotten before.
He has obviously changed the plot, but why to the original Ling Xie to die on the day, the plot will still be another way back to the original track, this is the trajectory of irreversible?
Then, according to this statement, he, an outsider, should have died long ago.
Wouldn't it be possible that this body of mine would have to die again before it could?
Compared to Ling Xie and Hongyi Guan, the natives, he is a bug from the other world, which is an epic vulnerability.
If there is really some kind of law that is operating, correcting, and clearing in this world.
Then it will absolutely, once again, obliterate him.
Ha.
I can't be that unlucky.
And to put it that way, today is also the day that Xi Gu tried to jump to his death in the original story.
Just now also and Xi Gu scene, Xi Gu state is still quite good, can not be his brain, suddenly run to the roof to kill himself ...... it
Hmmmmmmmm???
Jing Rong casually glanced and saw a figure among the balloons floating on the roof of the building, as if it was shaking.
It's not.
