Lance snapped his fingers and praised, "Excellent!" turned to look at the other actors, "I don't know how much you know about the script. ← If you have read the script carefully, you should know that this work puts forward very strict requirements on performance. You can become one of them because your basic performance skills are excellent and solid enough, and most of you even have experience in stage performance. This is what we need, let go of your hands and feet in body language, and accurately and delicate in emotional expression. This is all." Lance looked around and glanced around each actor, and finally fell on Blues, but just a slight pause, and then he closed it. "So, be confident in yourself, read the script repeatedly, and even rehearse with your partner. What you can do, please surprise me and let us complete this work together!"

After a short and powerful sentence was finished, Rosario took the lead in applauding, shook his head, and turned to Alexis standing beside him, "Maybe he is a complete asshole, but definitely a talented asshole."

Alexis pursed her lips, "Geniuses are all bastards, aren't they?" Then she clapped with a smile.

Emma raised her head and her eyes fell on Lance's broad shoulders. Although Lance did not praise her too much, or even gave her any look, at this moment, Emma felt the surging emotions in her chest. She did it, she really did it, she proved that she could become an excellent actor, and she proved that her dream was not a castle in the air.

Azure blue. Emma was a little panicked. She obviously didn't expect that Lance would suddenly turn her head at this time. Unexpectedly, she crashed into the azure blue directly, as if her inner emotions were exposed naked, which made Emma immediately lower her eyes and avoid her sight.

But Lance seemed to have not noticed it, and just said in a deep voice, "So, you did read the script. This is a good start, keep it going." After that, Lance quickly left and left the space again for the actors - as Bruce said, they needed some time to settle down.

Emma clenched her fists happily. At this moment, she truly let her emotions be released. She did not hide her excitement between her eyebrows. She even jumped gently with her indifference. That innocent and childish behavior made people smile.

Jessica stood there. She was worried that Emma would cause trouble, but now it seems that her worries are unnecessary. She bit her lips gently, and the inexplicable bitterness of the tip of her tongue was savoring, "Jessica, I want to read the script of the first scene again. Can you help me play?" Emma's voice woke Jessica from her thoughts, and the bitterness disappeared immediately. Jessica smiled, "Of course, of course, no problem."

Bruce was still sitting in place, with the same movements not changing at all, but at this time he seemed a little embarrassed. After missing the time to stand up, Bruce seemed unable to stand up by himself. After Lance left straight, the other actors also dispersed, which made him simply continue to sit on the ground.

Ash Morgan (a shot r-man) walked over and showed a helpless smile, "You can't stand up now, or are you not ashamed to stand up?" Bruce said "tsk" and responded with contempt. Ash didn't continue to say anything more. He stretched out his right hand. Bruce grabbed Ash's right hand and stood up with the help of force.

"Thank you?" Bruce glanced Ash in anger.

Ash also smiled politely, "As your assistant, this is what I should do." The righteous answer left Bruce speechless, Ash was just joking, and then asked with concern, "How is it, everything is OK?"

"I've worked on something worse." Bruce shrugged and said indifferently. He had experienced the stage of "taking any bad movie for money", so he worked with all kinds of crews.

"Then why are you so impatient?" In fact, Bruce is not an actor who likes to be a big shot. Ash knows this clearly. Perhaps he has starred in various bad movies and has worn away all the so-called face. On the contrary, when he works with a new director, he always has a lot of cooperation, such as the "supernatural sixth sense" at the time. But today's Bruce is obviously not the one Ash knows.

Bruce opened his mouth. He thought he could give an answer, but when he spoke, he found that his mind was blank again. Bruce drooped his shoulders, stood there helplessly, thought about it seriously, and finally let out a long sigh, "It's probably because he still has high requirements for me."

This sentence reveals indescribable helplessness and vicissitudes. Even Bruce himself gave up. He never thought he could make any breakthrough in acting. This is how he had been a 20-year actor career. Now he has entered the end of his career. Maybe one day soon, even the fighting scenes will not be able to fight, and it is time for him to retire; but Lance still holds hope - not just hope, but also high requirements and high standards. Even he himself forgot what "performance" is.

Ash could feel the loss in Bruce's words, but he couldn't find a suitable comfort, so he could only pat Bruce on the shoulder. Bruce looked up at him and cast a questioning look. Ash couldn't say "I'm comforting you." After thinking about it, he said, "So, what are you going to do?"

Bruce thought for a while, "I have signed a contract, what else can I do?" He chuckled, "Although I really want to teach that kid a lesson now and let him know that not everyone can mess with him, but... I think I'd better give the director some face."

Ash nodded repeatedly, "It's better, he looks too thin, just like a cucumber. If you break it accidentally, it will be difficult to clean up." This sarcastic tone made Bruce speechless, but he had no way to refute it, so he could only smile vainly, "So, what are we going to do now?"

Bruce turned around and looked around, then saw Emma's thin figure. Jessica standing next to her seemed a little restless, but Emma was reading the script intently, as if all the noise around her was not there. "Look at the script, read the script carefully. Have you read the script before? Tell me the whole story again, I mean, except for the part where I kissed Jessica."

Albert walked quickly towards the actor's rest area, and then saw Bruce standing beside him reading the script, while his assistant Ash sat in a chair, which made Albert stunned, but walked forward, "Bruce, the first scene is about to start filming, ten minutes."

Bruce immediately reacted, which meant they had to stand in front of the camera, walk around, rehearse, learn about the camera and dispatch of the camera, and prepare for the shooting. He nodded, threw the script to Ash, and walked side by side with Albert towards the green screen, "Albert, right? I have one thing that is very curious. Is Hardigan a good person or a bad person in the script?"

As a drama, Albert must know the script well. Many times, his interpretation is also the closest to the director's idea, "Bad Man." Albert is not Lance, he doesn't need to be a guide, and there is no time now. "To be precise, in the story of "City of Sin", everyone is a bad person, but everyone is a good person. You know, it's like we achieve so-called justice by killing people, which cannot be reasonably explained by the act of murder. However, the character of Hadegan is even more special. He is a bad person himself, but because of Nancy's relationship, he sacrifices himself in exchange for Nancy's freedom. For Nancy, he is a good person, but..."

"I get it." Bruce nodded meaningfully. He originally thought that "City of Sin" was just an ordinary crime action movie. Lance said it in the audition, but he didn't buy it at all. Almost every director in Hollywood said his work was unparalleled. But now Bruce realized that he was outrageously wrong. Just the sublimation of the relationship between Hardegan and Nancy was enough to light up the entire script. "But, do you say that Hardee is a bad guy at all?"

Albert looked at Bruce twice. He remembered that Lance had a corresponding idea of ​​each character. Why did Bruce seem to know nothing, but he didn't say much, it was not his duty - knowing how to shut up is also one of the important abilities of the drama. "Yes, why did Hardegan desperately fight for Nancy? It won't be mentioned in the movie, but the character setting is a very important part. Perhaps, Hardegan is a dirty policeman, but because of his own relationship, his daughter was kidnapped and even tore off for the votes. And so on."

Bruce stared at Albert with great surprise, which made Albert helpless, "It's not my idea, it's Lance's." As he spoke, the two of them had already arrived before the green screen. "Bruce, you can slowly think about the character's matters, but I need you to concentrate now." Albert took the initiative to change the topic and return to the track.

Bruce felt that he had received too much information, so he couldn't help but look back, and then he saw Lance confirming details with the lighting engineer and photographer team, with a serious expression and focused expression, and the sharp color between his eyebrows was clearly visible. Bruce withdrew his gaze and said to Albert, "Give me a minute."
