Chapter 24 Title Effect, Test Passed Successfully (Ch 24)

The room was empty.

There was a row of tables in front, and three people were sitting in the back.

Qi Jia recognized that the one sitting in the middle was Director Rao, and the other two were probably assistant directors or casting directors.

It was the first official audition, and Qi Jia was somewhat nervous.

Standing in front of the three people, he bowed respectfully.

“Hello, three directors. My name is Qi Jia.”

“Hey, are you the actor in the death clip that went viral on Tik Tok a while ago?”

One of the directors looked at Qi Jia carefully and asked uncertainly.

“Yes, Director.”

Qi Jia nodded humbly and replied.

“What are you talking about?”

Director Rao was somewhat confused as to what the two were talking about.

After listening to the explanation, it suddenly dawned on me.

He turned his gaze back to Qi Jia, looked him up and down, nodded, and spoke.

“Director Zhao highly recommended you to me, saying that your acting skills are very good, and now it seems that you are indeed good enough.”

“I heard from the staff that you chose Li Haigen’s script. We already have a preliminary candidate for this role.

It’s just that the other party’s schedule may conflict, so it hasn’t been decided yet.”

“Since you are so confident, then act out for me the scene where Big Head and Cockscomb Head break up on the rooftop.”

Director Rao said that this part is the sublime part of the character Datou, also known as Li Haigen, in this movie.

From this paragraph on, Datou changed from a person who escaped from reality and blindly agreed with others to one who faced himself and developed his own values ​​and outlook on life.

This also implies that after realizing the helplessness of reality, people at the bottom of society give up their fantasies and choose to accept their true selves.

I heard that Director Rao chose this segment.

Qi Jia’s nervous heart heaved a sigh of relief.

There is no other reason, because to play this scene well, you need anger.

And he just happened to copy the acting skills with this attribute, and through practicing in the studio,

He now has the confidence to express different kinds of anger with ease.

After taking a few deep breaths and getting a feel for the situation,

He nodded to the three directors.

Director Rao shouted, “Begin.”

Almost simultaneously.

As Director Rao finished speaking,

Qi Jia’s originally calm expression suddenly turned ferocious. He kicked hard at the person beside him.

At the same time, he cursed: “Laozi~”

Then he took a few quick steps forward, stopped, leaned his head slightly forward, and breathed heavily.

His eyes first glared at the ground, then slowly moved upwards, and finally looked straight ahead.

In this scene in the movie, he kicks the protagonist, but now there is no one to act with him, so he can only act it out by himself.

After a few seconds of silence, he shook his head and said the most manly words for this character in a sonorous and powerful voice.

“I don’t care what she did before, I only care what she will do in the future.”

When saying the first half of the sentence, Qi Jia’s tone was slow but firm.

When he got to the second half of the sentence, his tone suddenly changed and he lowered his voice, like a boiling volcano about to erupt.

Inside the venue, the three directors, who had originally been calm, became serious.

Director Rao, who was originally leaning on the sofa, straightened up without knowing when.

He stared at Qi Jia, muttering something in a low voice.

If Qi Jia had gotten closer, he would have heard that Director Rao was reading the lines of the man with the cockscomb haircut.

He was actually following Qi Jia’s rhythm and acting with him!

In front of the stage,

Qi Jia’s performance has come to an end.

He stood sideways, his head tilted slightly to the side.

Then he reached out and wiped his face, as if to wipe away the rain.

Then he pointed his finger at the air and said.

“You’re going to push her down, aren’t you?”

“You’re going to help her jump off the building and commit suicide, aren’t you?”

“She only had her brain working, how could she commit suicide by jumping off a building?”

While saying this, Qi Jia’s hand muscles tensed up, and his fingers pointed forcefully at the air.

He stretched his neck and questioned the air word by word.

Every word is filled with the character’s angry emotions.

Director Rao was completely shocked by the natural and unobtrusive acting.

When Director Zhao told him that the other party was just an extra, he didn’t take it seriously.

Now after seeing Qi Jia’s performance, he finally understood what a genius was.

What is professionalism!

What made him even more satisfied was that in this one-man show, Qi Jia not only performed his emotions and lines well,

Even the details are handled very well, such as the action of him wiping his face.

Because in the script, this scene takes place on a rainy day.

But now it was a non-property performance, and he actually noticed even this detail and completed it carefully.

You can imagine how thoroughly he understands the script, lines, and characters.

Director Rao believes that any top student who has received professional training can also achieve this ability.

But they will never be as good as Qi Jia.

It took Qi Jia less than an hour from the time he got the script to the time he auditioned, so you can imagine how professional he is!

This kind of person may be a supporting role now, but he will never be a supporting role forever!

I really found a treasure this time!

Director Rao’s hand holding the cigarette was shaking with excitement, and he took a few puffs of the cigarette with trembling hands.

As soon as the performance was over,

He couldn’t wait to stand up, applaud and shout.

“Good! Great acting!”

The other two directors were still immersed in Qi Jia’s ecstatic acting.

After being awakened by Director Rao’s loud shout, he excitedly stood up and applauded.

At the same time, it was recognized by three directors.

Qi Jia could no longer conceal his excitement and bowed to the three of them.

“Can you speak Sichuan dialect?”

After sitting down again, Director Rao couldn’t help but ask,

In fact, when he first heard Qi Jia reading the lines in Sichuan dialect, he was very curious.

“Yes, Director Rao. I saw that the story was set in Guizhou Province, and I thought the Sichuan dialect would be better. It just so happened that I had participated in a drama before, and I was required to speak in Sichuan dialect, so I learned it.”

Qi Jia said calmly that the drama he was talking about was actually in the practice room last week.

When practicing his lines, he performed in a Sichuan dialect drama. After the performance, he found that if he was not careful, he would speak with a Sichuan accent.

“Not bad, not bad. I forgot to mention it at first. I didn’t expect you to even consider this detail.”

Hearing him say this, Director Rao was even more satisfied, but he changed the tone and spoke again after pondering for a while.

“Although your expressions are indeed outstanding, you can even say that the role of Lee Hae-geun was written for you,

But after all, you are the second male lead, and you don’t have an agency, so it’s still a bit difficult to give you this role.”

“How about this, you go out and sit for a while, and we’ll discuss this with the producer.”

Seeing Director Rao’s expression, Qi Jia’s heart suddenly rose to his throat.

He bowed to the three of them in gratitude, then left.

I found a random chair outside and sat down, forcing myself to wait quietly.

Time passes in anxiety,

Just when Qi Jia was becoming more and more anxious,

Suddenly, a “ding” sound rang in his mind, and then he heard a prompt tone that surprised and delighted him.

“Ding, it is detected that the host’s audition success rate is 40%. The title of “Minor Famous” takes effect. The audition success rate is increased to 60%, and the fame is also increased accordingly.”

I never felt the title was of any use before, it turns out I haven’t met the triggering conditions yet.

Qi Jia suddenly realized.

Then, the door that was originally closed opened.

One of the directors came out and waved to Qi Jia with a smile.

Seeing the other person’s expression, Qi Jia could no longer suppress his inner ecstasy and walked into the room excitedly.

In the room,

Director Rao also looked at him with a smile and said.

“Qi Jia, after we have discussed it together, we have decided to give this role to you!”
