Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 332 What kind of monsters are these?

There are dozens of artists in the casting hall, including men, women, young and old, including many of the most popular "top stars".

In fact, most of them don’t even know what “audition” and “screen test” are because they have never experienced them.

In an era dominated by traffic, the process of drama production has long been distorted. Many crews first customize the "cast lineup" based on popularity and traffic, and then find someone to customize the script and start filming...

The standard inverted Tiangang.

However, faced with an IP like Nirvana in Fire that is destined to become a huge hit, these top stars dare not show off and can only come in person to audition and grab roles.

Everyone knows that their "popularity" is actually very fake and is supported by their own female data workers. If they want to become a real "top star", they need a masterpiece like "Nirvana in Fire" to temper their popularity.

As long as we can get it, then it’s really stable!
Zhou Hao's appearance instantly made the entire hall restless.

After the two battles of "Day and Night" and "The Beginning", no one dares to underestimate him anymore.

One success can be said to be accidental, but consecutive successes can definitely not be due to luck.

This genius who has all the talents of editing, directing, acting, writing songs and composing music will definitely be one of the giants in the circle in the near future. Even if he can't get a role, it would be good to establish some connections and leave some contacts!
In an instant, dozens of people rushed over.

"Teacher Zhou, I'm Su Xiaojin's agent..."

"Director Zhou, nice to meet you. Our Xiaoliang has admired you for a long time..."

"Teacher Zhou, our Jingjing is a fan of your books..."

"Teacher Zhou……"

Zhou Hao's head was buzzing from the noise, even the vegetable market wasn't so noisy.

“Alright, alright, let’s all go.” Peter Lam said unhappily, “Follow the procedures and don’t do such meaningless things.”

After being driven away repeatedly by Peter Lam and Li Kuo-hua, these people reluctantly dispersed.

When he arrived at the judges' table, Zhou Hao was pushed directly to the main seat.

"Don't waste time, just sit down." Peter Lam pressed down Zhou Hao who was trying to struggle, "Everyone knows that you are the soul of this film. No one will object if you sit in the main seat."

Glancing at Li Guohua beside him, Zhou Hao gritted his teeth and sat down.

"Who should start first?" Li Guohua whispered.

Zhou Hao glanced at the list on the table and said, "Let's start with Mei Changsu and Xiao Jingyan. After all, these two are the absolute protagonists."

"Okay." Li Guohua snapped his fingers. "Mei Changsu's group and Xiao Jingyan's group come out. The others will wait for a while."

As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen male artists stood up from their seats.

Li Guohua's assistant also handed a stack of information to Zhou Hao at the right time.

All of them are the archival information of these artists, including their height, weight, alma mater, and the roles they have played in previous works.

Zhou Hao took a quick glance and couldn't help but frowning slightly.

What’s going on? How come there isn’t even a single professional student here, and they’re all traffic stars?

Moreover, he had never heard of any of the works listed by these artists.

Obviously, they are all "fan-oriented" "hit classics".

What's going on with Peter Lam and Shan Hai? I, Zhou Hao, haven't gotten carried away yet, but you guys are starting to get carried away?
Such a big play, such an important role, and you let a popular star play it?

You think the reputation of the first two dramas is too good, right?
Although he felt somewhat confused and dissatisfied, he couldn't show it in front of so many people, so he could only choose to remain silent for the time being.

"Screenwriter Zhou, why don't you set up a rule and let them take turns to try?" Zhou Guohua asked tentatively with a smile.

Zhou Hao thought for a moment, then picked up the script and flipped a page. "Let's do this part. It's a good opportunity for two groups of people to work together."

When everyone came over to take a look, their faces immediately showed joy.

This scene is simple, an emotional quarrel, as long as they put enough effort, there is basically no problem! In contrast, what they fear most is those introverted scenes, which require them to use their eyes and micro-expressions to express the emotional progression of the characters... This can almost kill them!

The passage Zhou Hao chose is one of the famous scenes in Nirvana in Fire – Xiao Jingyan, you are affectionate and righteous, but why don’t you have a brain!

After a brief preparation, the two groups spontaneously formed 1V1 pairings.

The first pair that came up for the audition made Zhou Hao feel a little physically uncomfortable.

Both of them are slim-cut "flower boys", one of them is wearing a Korean-style slim suit, earrings and a silk scarf.

The other one was dressed quite normally, in casual clothes, but the strong perfume on her body was really... you could smell it from several meters away, and she even had eyeliner on...

Zhou Hao simply couldn't understand what kind of person would like such an androgynous aesthetic.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Lin, and Director Zhou. I am Ning Lei."

"Hello teachers, I am Jiang Haoxuan."

Zhou Hao forced himself to nod, "Let's get started."

The two of them stood in position, one in front of the other, and began their performance.

Jamel Xiao: “Mr. Su, nothing you say today can stop me.”

Just this first sentence almost made Zhou Hao unable to hold back.

What level of dialogue is this?

Every word seems to have its own glue, all stuck together, making the clarity extremely poor!
If this kind of lines were on TV without subtitles, no one would be able to hear what he was saying.

Now think about the drama masters in "Duds Get Water"... the gap is more than just heaven and earth.

Mei Changsu: "If I don't stop you today, what are you going to do? Are you going to rush to the palace and force the emperor to release Wei Zheng, or..."

I got stuck halfway through reading.

Zhou Hao was stunned for a moment. What was going on?
"Um... I'm sorry, teachers." Jiang Haoxuan said with an embarrassed look on his face: "The lines are too long, I forgot the rest."

Zhou Hao: “…………”

Lines too long?

Is this also called long?

It’s only a few sentences in total?

Besides, you've only memorized the second line, and the lines aren't that difficult to pronounce...

With this level of professional ability, you still want to act?

He had heard Guo Chen say before that in order to take care of the so-called "newcomers", screenwriters rarely wrote more than two lines of dialogue. The reason was simple - the older brothers and sisters couldn't memorize them.

Zhou Hao originally thought it was a bit exaggerated, but now it seems to be true.

Is it funny to let this kind of person star in Nirvana in Fire?
"It's normal that you can't recite it at random." Li Guohua said with a smile: "Why don't you just read the script?"

"Thank you, Director Li." Jiang Minghao felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly asked his assistant to bring the script over.

After adjusting for a moment, he looked at the script and continued, "If I didn't stop you today, what would you do? Would you rush to the palace and force the emperor to release Wei Zheng, or would you take your soldiers to the Xuan Jing Division to rescue him..."

Looking at the script, the lines were able to pass smoothly, but the quality...

Not to mention that the lines have no changes in emotional and logical emphasis, it sounds like an AI robot reading. What's even more outrageous is... the actor just stands there and speaks the entire time, with no intention of moving at all.

What kind of monsters are these?

Zhou Hao was a little overwhelmed.
