"Hello directors, my name is Zhong Yunqing, and the role auditioned today is Monk Wei."

When Zhong Yunqing said these words, several casting directors opposite him were also looking at him.

This guy was originally taller and stronger, and he also had a neat, square-cut haircut. He looked quite similar to a soldier in the army.

Then there is the role he auditioned for, the character Monk Wei. The explanation in the plot introduction is that he has been a monk in the Shaolin Temple for ten years and has superb martial arts skills.

For a role like this, it would be very realistic to use a taller actor.

As for Zhong Yunqing's appearance, at first glance, it does seem to fit the character very well. Whether it's his physique or facial contours, it fits the image description of the monk in the script.

Director Zhang, who was sitting in the middle, nodded his head without any trace at first, and then said in a friendly manner:

"Zhong Yunqing, right? Don't be nervous. Let's talk about your understanding of the character Monk Wei first."

Not to mention, Director Zhang at this time looked very different from the bad-tempered brigade commander in the play! This actually gave Zhong Yunqing a lot of encouragement.

Moreover, the character of Monk Wei can be regarded as one of the important supporting characters in this drama. After all, Zhong Yunqing has watched Liangjian dozens of times in his previous life, so it can be said that he really has his own unique insights into this character.

He first thought for more than ten seconds to organize his words, and then said calmly:

"I have actually read the original work before. Combined with the biographies I just adapted, I think Monk Wei has four very distinctive characteristics."

After saying this, he first stopped and looked at the three people in front of him, and found that they were all looking at him before continuing:

"He should have been bold and careful at first. When he first appeared, he was in a prisoner of war camp, and it was not an ordinary prisoner of war camp, it was Yamamoto Kazuki's special forces training camp. This group of Japanese soldiers were several times more powerful than ordinary Japanese soldiers.

, but in such a place where he almost escaped death, Wei Dayong could kill a Japanese officer and then escape over the wall. It can be seen that Wei Dayong has a characteristic, bold and careful. He must have already observed where the weak points are and how to create chaos.

, how to take advantage of the chaos to escape. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to successfully escape from the heavily defended Japanese prisoner of war camp.

The second characteristic is that he is arrogant and arrogant.

On his way to escape, he was rescued by Political Commissar Zhao. After joining the Eighth Route Army, he disliked the poor equipment of the Eighth Route Army and was unwilling to join the Eighth Route Army. Later, when he heard that he was joining Li Yunlong's army, he was willing to join again. This shows that he is very convinced of capable people.

.In other words, this person is convinced by capable people, but ordinary people cannot command him."

His third characteristic is domineering.

After becoming a general of the Eighth Route Army, Monk Wei received all kinds of preferential treatment because he was the regiment leader's guard. For example, Monk Wei could monopolize 200 rounds of bullets! You must know that the Eighth Route Army's bullets were scarce at that time, and the average

Each person has less than five rounds of bullets. Even veterans like Wang Xikui scolded Monk Wei for not being a thing! And they didn’t dare to ask Monk Wei for bullets after he ran out of bullets... In addition, after Duan Peng joined the army, Monk always asked for bullets.

He bullied him every chance he got and tried his best to annoy Duan Peng. In the end, Duan Peng couldn't bear it anymore and the two started fighting. This shows how domineering Monk Wei usually behaves.

His fourth characteristic is that he is inflexible and soft.

Later, he and Duan Peng were captured by the Japanese to build fortifications. The monk couldn't help but take action at the city gate. If Duan Peng hadn't stopped him, he would have definitely taken action.

This is also the reason why he died at the hands of the bandits' black guns in the end.

The rule of bandits is that if you give them money, I won’t kill you. Their purpose is just to steal money. If you encounter a character like Duan Peng, you will definitely surrender first, and then return to the independent group to seek revenge from them. But the monk character

There was no mention of surrendering first, so in the end he killed several bandits in front of him, but failed to guard against the black gun behind him."

After Zhong Yunqing said this, he didn't know whether it was right or not, and several audition directors did not interrupt him. He just kept talking about his understanding of the character eloquently.

You should know that the other interviews just came out within a few minutes. He said this for five minutes, which shows that the casting director gave him preferential treatment.

Sure enough, the first impression is really important!

"Well, it's a good job to be able to understand the characters deeply in such a short time." After listening to Zhong Yunqing's words, Director Zhang made a summary for him.

Yeah? Does this compliment from the brigade commander count as "muddled through"?

Zhong Yunqing was muttering in his heart when he heard Director Li say to him:

"Since you chose to audition Monk Wei, let's give you a few questions. Based on the questions, you can act out Monk Wei's expression changes and action coordination at this time..."

Although the two of them did appreciate Zhong Yunqing's character after what happened last night. But appreciation is appreciation. They are sitting here choosing a few male supporting actors who are crucial to the plot. The acting skills of the actors are the first priority in their selection.

condition!

As for other factors besides acting skills, such as character or image, they can only be used as supplementary references for actor selection.

Fortunately, Zhong Yunqing's predecessor was a serious acting graduate, and he also worked as a supporting actor in Hengdian for two years. He has rich acting experience, and he passed the acting test questions very quickly.

Yeah, the acting is pretty passable.

But as a casting director, Director Li felt that there seemed to be something missing in choosing the actor Wei Monk.

Because this character had to show off his boxing skills, he looked at Zhong Yunqing and asked:

"Xiao Zhong, can you learn martial arts?"

This sentence stunned Zhong Yunqing for a few seconds. How could he do this?

But after all, he has been working as a bit player in Hengdian for two years and has played various roles. If you ask him to perform a complete set of moves, he will not be able to do it to death! But the three-legged cat does have a lot of moves.

In order not to lose this precious opportunity, he could only bite the bullet and say:

"meeting".

Director Li took a look: Good guy, you are not only a good person, but also versatile!

So this guy suddenly had an impulse and asked him to make two gestures to see.

After all, Zhong Yunqing is a man of two generations, and his job as a tour guide has also tempered his ability to brag without drafting. Faced with such a request, he remained calm and did not reveal his flaws.

And after recalling it carefully, there seemed to be very few scenes in Bright Sword that required Monk Wei to make moves, they were all just about swinging a few moves.

So he was in a hurry and recalled in his mind the complete military boxing moves he had learned from the instructor when he participated in the military training at the university.

Not to mention, with his tall and powerful figure, he actually bluffed the director with a few military punches.

Director Li was so happy that he immediately made the decision:

"Not bad! You are very good! In this case, you go back and prepare first. Later, our staff will contact you about what you need to prepare to join the group."

After saying that, Director Li thought of something else. He put away his smile and paused for a while before continuing:

"By the way, regarding actors' remuneration, we may not pay as high as other crews..."

Originally, when he heard that Director Li had decided to use him, Zhong Yunqing had already breathed a sigh of relief. Now when the other party mentioned the salary, to be honest with the drama "Bright Sword", he would not let it go even if it was zero salary! If the drama becomes popular, the salary will naturally increase in the future.

Keep going up! Why care about this now!

So before the other party finished speaking, Zhong Yunqing immediately interrupted the other party with a calm expression:

"Director Li, the salary doesn't matter. As an actor, I think the most important thing is how to perform your role well. As for other things, they are all trivial."

When these words came out of his mouth, Directors Li and Zhang opposite him nodded frequently.

Not to mention, if these righteous words came from someone else's mouth, they might be a little hypocritical. But it wouldn't necessarily be true if it were him.

Because after all, this guy had action to back him up last night, and he returned tens of thousands of yuan to the owner without hesitation. His reply that he didn't care much about the remuneration was convincing enough.

Of course, the crew of "Bright Sword" is short of money, but they will not cheat honest people! They will still pay the dues!

So, after Zhong Yunqing finished speaking, Director Zhang looked at him with satisfaction, waved to him and said:

"Okay, let's go back and get ready."

…………

After returning to the rental house from the Actors Guild, Zhong Yunqing wanted to write quickly while she was in a good mood and had a wide range of ideas.

As a result, as soon as I reached the second floor and turned on my computer and QQ, I received a strange call:

"Hello Mr. Zhong, first of all, congratulations on passing the audition for "Bright Sword". Please bring two one-inch photos to the Screen Actors Guild to sign the contract before 11 o'clock tomorrow morning..."

"Hmm, okay, thank you..."

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Yunqing waved his fist excitedly!

You must know that Monk Wei is one of the most important supporting characters in this drama! He has a high appearance rate. And the most important point is that Monk's death in the end is a bit disappointing. This is a point that the audience can remember.

Zhong Yunqing, who comes from later generations, knows very well that tragedies are often more memorable than comedies! Therefore, the moment the monk dies in this drama, it can have a huge effect and make the audience remember this character!

So after he participates in the show, as long as it starts airing and he has the blessing of this role, his career as an actor will really start successfully!

So, out of habit, this guy started to fantasize about being high-spirited on the podium of professional performance awards!

Thinking about his grand blueprint for the future, Zhong Yunqing was excited when he heard the chirping sound of QQ messages coming from his computer.

The only person he had chatted with on QQ during this period was Liu Sisi, so when he thought of the news, he quickly walked to his seat, sat down, and opened the QQ page. Then as expected, he saw that it was a message from Liu Sisi's avatar.

Without any hesitation, he immediately clicked on it to see what Sisi had posted.

"Old Zhong, bubble!"

Behind the text Sisi sent, there was a little crazy expression. It was not too cute.

Zhong Yunqing looked at this message, smiled slightly, and then typed a sentence on the keyboard to reply:

"What's wrong, Sisi, you suddenly made this expression, who is bullying you?"

"You still have the nerve to say it! Update it quickly!"

This time, Xiao Shi Ye came back in seconds! This shows how strong the resentment of the girl who is urging her to be born is!

The thing is like this, last night she learned that Zhong Yunqing was writing a novel, so she was a little curious and searched for it. The result is self-evident!

The charm of online novels is that it can fully present the author's imagination in the form of words. And those excellent authors can even make readers feel immersed in the scene through description.
