The audition for "Smelling the Fragrance to Know Women" began soon. The interview room was the conference room next door. This was not a temporary building, but a complete room that could block the noise in the studio. A few people went in front of them, and they didn't stay for a long time. The shortest seemed to come out just after entering, and the longest was only three minutes. You know, now there are actors in the reception room who can give out works, but the audition ended so quickly. This really makes people unable to have a good premonition. Could it be that the crew is just looking for newcomers who don't have much experience today?

Soon, the person who just asked Hugo and Leonardo to shut up had just stood up. Hugo and Leonardo immediately stood up straight and sat upright, staring at the man with their eyes wide open, without any special malice or any special expression. It was as if they were just looking at him normally. The difference was that his eyes were very wide, which made the man very helpless. He wanted to say something but had nothing to say, so he could only speed up and enter the conference room. Seeing the man's panic back, Hugo and Leonardo almost didn't hold it tight and laughed, but considering that the task had not been completed, both of them held it in a hurry.

Sure enough, the man came out soon, and he only persisted for about two minutes. As soon as he came out, he saw Hugo and Leonardo still sitting sternly, just like a child who went to school on the first day, staring at him with curiosity. The man was so angry that Hugo and Leonardo saw him, but the other party had no malice, so he couldn't say anything, and he ended up having to run away in panic.

This time, Hugo and Leonardo burst into laughter, but the others did not complain. Instead, the others in the reception room couldn't help but burst out laughing, which immediately sootheed the tense atmosphere in the reception room a lot.

When Ellen Lewis walked out, he saw such a pleasant atmosphere in the reception room. Among a group of actors, Hugo and Leonardo, who were sitting in the center, were so dazzling that they easily attracted people's attention. In this, Hugo's sunny smile was particularly attractive, and the warm, brilliant and gorgeous halo made the corners of the viewer's mouth involuntarily outline a curve.

However, thinking of Hugo's dark history of three consecutive works, let alone the negative impact of the Golden Raspberry Award, Allen's smile slightly restrained, took back his attention and put it back on his work, "Leonardo DiCaprio, you are next."

"Man, good luck." Leonardo stood up, Hugo said with a smile, which made the smile on Leonardo's face relax a little, and then followed Alan and entered the conference room next door.

Without his chatting partner, Hugo immediately noticed a sense of tension coming to his face, because his attention had shifted to the audition that was about to begin. The tension involuntarily winded up the tendons of his body, and the tightness of his muscles made him feel his breathing became rapid.

Hugo took the script again, but he couldn't read a word. To be precise, his brain is now completely blank, and Hugo couldn't even remember his original plan. Hugo knew that he was too nervous. During the audition for "Dahe Love", Hugo was still in a state of just passing by. He was confused and couldn't figure out the situation. He ended the interview in a daze. Today's audition was obviously completely different.

Taking a deep breath, taking a deep breath, Hugo kept forcing himself to adjust his breathing rhythm. Although he had never seen any big scenes, the band's performances were basically very small occasions in the past, and the performance stage of the Midi Rock Festival was the biggest occasion in their band in ten years, but Hugo still had his own way to deal with tension.

After several deep breaths, Hugo's anxiety calmed down, but his brain still didn't come back to his senses. Hugo knew that he could only wait until the audition process was adaptable.

At this time, Leonardo walked out of the conference room. Hugo raised his head and cast inquiring eyes. Leonardo stayed inside for not long, about three minutes. Leonardo showed a helpless smile and shook his head. It seemed that the audition process was not going well. Leonardo did not come over, but said "good luck", then waved his hand and said goodbye to Hugo, and walked outside to find his agent.

"Hugo Lancaster." Allen stood at the door of the conference room again and shouted to the reception room.

Hugo took another deep breath, stood up, hesitated for a moment, held the script on the sofa in his hand, and then walked towards the conference room.

He whispered to Allen, who opened the door for him, and Hugo walked into the conference room and saw clearly the decorations in the room at a glance. It was said that it was a conference room, but it was actually a small room of more than 300 square feet (thirty square meters) with a circular conference table inside. At this time, three people were sitting next to the table.

Hugo walked up and put her resume on the table. Today is a public interview. Submitting resume is a necessary procedure. This is Ellen, who also walked to the table and sat down. She pointed to the woman sitting outside with a smile and said, "I am casting director Allen Lewis, and this is Lily Stokamp, ​​the representative of the Actors Union." Hugo and Lily exchanged a polite smile, "Okay, you can start, you have thirty seconds."

Hugo was stunned for a moment. The two men in the middle didn't introduce them at all. Who are they? And they started as soon as they came in, and they didn't even read their resumes. Thinking back to the longest stay for the people who were auditions, Hugo understood.

"Thirty seconds? I don't know what I can do." Hugo pursed his lips, raised the script of his right hand, and said honestly.

"What does it mean?" Allen asked in confusion, frowning, and the two men in the middle who were originally reading Hugo's resume couldn't help but look up.

Hugo was no longer nervous at this time and spoke very smoothly. "I mean, Charlie is a student, and he does not have a concentrated highlight and cannot burst out in a short period of time. If you give me thirty seconds, no matter what I perform, I cannot show the role of Charlie."

A look of inquiry appeared on Allen's face, but the two men in the middle still had no expressions, but just exchanged glances with each other, "You haven't read the script, Charlie and Lieutenant Colonel have several confrontations, and Charlie has a lot of room for performance." Hugo opened his mouth, originally trying to say, "This is an opponent's scene, and we need to inspire each other to perform." But Allen seemed to know his quibbling, and raised his hand to stop Hugo, and then said, "Do you think the role of a student is not challenging, and you can just rely on your true performance?"

"It's not like that." Hugo was not discouraged. During the audition process, he would encounter various situations, and there was no way to prepare in advance. Even if he drew out the script of "Smelling the Scent of a Woman", it would be useless. So he did not panic and said in an orderly manner, "I mean, there is no way to act like a student-evil, just like you can't deceive others how many books you have read. Even if Al Pacino plays the role of Charlie, he will not be able to perform. Otherwise, you won't have a public interview today, right?"

This time, Allen looked at the two men on his right hand. A thoughtful smile appeared on the faces of the three of them. "Even if you say it is correct, it does not mean that your behavior is correct. You think that if you come in and perform nothing within the thirty seconds we give you, you can get the role." Allen hit Hugo mercilessly, but she did not see any frustrated expression on Hugo's face, and it was still the warm smile. "If you follow your current logic, how did you get the role in the 'Death Poetry Club'?"

In fact, objectively speaking, Hugo is very suitable for the role of students. His classical book temperament is very eye-catching. In the "Death Poetry Society", he plays a student.

Hearing this question, Hugo was immediately embarrassed because he really didn't know the audition situation of the "Death Poetry Club". It could not be said that Tracy walked through the back door. So Hugo raised his right hand and waved his hand gently, "Say... 'Hello'?"

This childish humor made Allen laugh, and smiles appeared on the faces of the other three, which made Hugo feel a little relieved.

"Since you think that the essence of Charlie cannot be shown within thirty seconds, then obviously you have your own understanding of this character. Can you talk to us?" Allen glanced at the watch on the table. Thirty seconds had passed, but she had no intention of letting Hugo leave, and the two men around her obviously had no intention either.

The two men sitting in the middle are director and producer Martin Brest and screenwriter Bo Goodman. Although the person who seems to have the power to kill life and death today is casting director Allen, both the director and the screenwriter came to the audition site in person, which shows that they attach great importance to the role of Charlie. They do not want to find a bad actor in the rival role for Al Pacino, which will ruin a movie. Although they have never revealed their identities, this does not mean that they will remain silent. It is just that there are no actors worthy of their words.

Although the previous audition development process was beyond Hugo's expectations, this problem was not difficult for him. The benefits of reading the script over and over again were highlighted at this time. The brain, which was originally blank, now has a steady stream of thoughts, and Hugo can speak directly without thinking.
