Chapter 182 When she cries, I feel like the world is wrong (Ch 182)

In the rehearsal room,

After adjusting himself briefly, Qi Jia asked which part of his performance the two of them wanted to see.

Han Yan and Yin Lu thought about it and asked tentatively, “Can we act out the scene where Wei Yihang confesses his love to Ma Xiaoyuan in the rain?”

Just after finishing speaking, Han Yan added,

“I mainly want to see your limit. Feel free to play as you like. This section is really difficult. If you can’t do it, we can try something else.”

Qi Jia did not answer directly, but quickly recalled it in his mind.

Although he did not take any acting jobs during this period, he would practice in the “practice room” every night.

Therefore, his current acting skills in [Line Delivery] have reached 81 points, reaching the level of a veteran actor.

At this moment, although he did not have the script in his hand, he quickly found the corresponding description and lines for this scene in his mind.

To be honest, this part is a bit difficult because of the description in the script.

Wei Yihang came to Ma Xiaoyuan’s house in the rain after getting drunk and confessed his love to her.

But Qi Jia is now very sober, which requires him to simulate the state of being drunk through facial expressions, body language, emotions and tone of voice.

I have to say, it’s quite challenging.

But men can’t say no, especially in front of ladies, men have to fight!

“No problem.” Qi Jia quickly sorted out his thoughts and answered easily.

Han Yan didn’t waste any words, so she said directly: “Let’s get started.”

Yin Lu opened her mouth and wanted to say,

“One of you is a screenwriter and the other is a professional actor. You don’t have to read the script.

But I can’t! I want to hold the script and read it!”

But Han Yan had already called the start, so in order to avoid interrupting Qi Jia, she had to take back what she was about to say.

But after the performance started, Qi Jia did not perform immediately.

Instead, he bent down and lowered his head, then turned around a few times on the spot.

Han Yan and Yin Lu were stunned for a moment, then their eyes lit up. Han Yan, who was always serious, smiled so hard that her gums showed.

I admire Qi Jia’s wit.

He actually thought of using circles to quickly put himself into a dizzy state.

Qi Jia turned around a few times, and when he felt his steps were a little weak, he slowly stood up.

Then, he closed his eyes tightly and pursed his lips.

He pretended to be drunk, not quite conscious, and having breathing difficulties, and then officially began the performance.

He opened his eyes, raised his hand softly, pointed at the empty wall in front of him, and said,

“Why did you block me?”

As soon as the lines came out, Han Yan’s eyes lit up again and again, and her clenched hands trembled slightly because of excitement.

Qi Jia’s expression, tone, and that slurred, slightly aggrieved tone when he was reciting the lines were simply amazing!

A lonely and introverted boy found that he was blocked from the circle of friends by the person he liked.

I didn’t dare to send a WeChat message, and had to rely on the alcohol to muster up the courage to go to his house and ask him the reason. The feeling of pity and grievance was expressed vividly!

“I don’t want to have any contact with anyone.”

“I’m afraid that if I just reveal my true feelings, I will die.”

As the lines change, Qi Jia’s emotions gradually become more diverse.

The previous sentence was still spoken very quickly and with a firm tone, giving people a very arrogant feeling.

But in the next sentence, his speaking speed immediately slowed down, and his tone became low, coupled with his aggrieved and pitiful expression, which instantly made people feel a very sad emotion.

Moreover, when Qi Jia said this line, his hands were not idle either.

As he spoke, his fingers were stirring unconsciously, giving people the shy and awkward feeling of a young boy confessing his feelings to the girl he liked for the first time.

The rich changes in facial expressions and emotions made the two people watching the show excited.

I felt like I had never seen such a cool performance before. It was completely like watching a finished film and didn’t feel like an audition at all.

Qi Jia’s changing emotions did not make Han Yan and Yin Lu feel abrupt, but rather felt very natural.

Because this is what people are like when they are drunk, they say whatever they think, and their emotions are rich and changeable.

Inside the venue, Qi Jia was already preparing to change his mood and start the next performance.

Han Yan and Yin Lu looked at each other and saw recognition and a hint of joy in each other’s eyes.

Yin Lu nodded, so Han Yan interrupted directly: “Okay, Qi Jia.”

Huh? Qi Jia was having a great time acting. He hadn’t auditioned for a few months. He had just gotten back into the role when he was interrupted.

Looking at the excited expressions of the two, it was obviously not because they acted badly, but because they acted too well.

So, there is no need to continue and you can make a decision directly.

“How about I perform a few more pieces for you?” Qi Jia felt itchy and uncomfortable.

Han Yan waved her hands and said quickly, “No, no, we are really impressed. I am very glad that I found you to play Wei Yihang.”

“The main reason is that Director Han and I have to catch a flight back to Beijing at noon to meet with some investors.” Yin Lu explained.

Seeing this, Qi Jia couldn’t force the two to watch him finish the performance, so he had to give up.

“Qi Jia, should we discuss your pay directly with you or with your agent?” Yin Lu said with a smile.

“Agent, I’m not interested in money.”

Qi Jia made a joke and then led the two out of the rehearsal room.

I plan to take the two of them to introduce them to Chen Yuwen first, and then go back to the reception room with Han Yan, leaving Yin Lu to discuss the film remuneration.

Unexpectedly, when the three of them passed by the reception room, they heard a choked cry coming from inside.

After looking at each other, Qi Jia felt very confused, so he opened the door and walked in.

When I walked in, I saw Zhang Ruonan sitting on the sofa, holding the script, sobbing softly as she read it.

Her eyes were red, and tears welled up in her black grape-like eyes.

The sad look with tearful eyes made Han Yan and Yin Lu tremble in their hearts when they saw it!

“Have you finished the audition?” Seeing Qi Jia coming back, Zhang Ruonan wiped her tears with embarrassment and said, “I’m sorry, this script is so well written that I was drawn into the role without realizing it.”

Qi Jia found it interesting, but he couldn’t show too much concern when there were outsiders around.

So, after saying a few words of comfort, he took Yin Lu and Han Yan to Chen Yuwen’s office.

Long before the two of them arrived, Qi Jia had already told Chen Yuwen that they might have to sign a contract.

So, Chen Yuwen kept waiting in the office.

At this moment, seeing the three people coming in, he immediately understood what was going on, so he quickly stood up and greeted them warmly.

After Qi Jia introduced the two parties to each other, he and Han Yan left first, leaving the two in the office to discuss the contract.

Back to the reception room,

After drinking a sip of hot tea, Han Yan hesitated for a few seconds, but couldn’t help asking,

“Qi Jia, is the girl who was just here an artist signed by your studio?”

“Yeah!” Qi Jia nodded and joked, “Why? Director Han is interested in giving her the leading role of Little Red Flower?”

Han Yan rubbed her hands awkwardly and did not respond to Qi Jia’s words. Instead, she said,

“By the way, the actor you’re acting with is Liu Haocun, and he’s also a very talented actor.”

“Oh?” Qi Jia felt very unfamiliar with the name. He seemed to have never heard of it before, so he couldn’t help asking, “Is he a newcomer?”

Han Yan shook her head and said, “Not really. She starred in One Second, which was just released this year, and Little Red Flower is her second work.”

Qi Jia showed no expression when he heard the first half of Han Yan’s sentence, but when he heard the second half, his mouth opened wide in surprise.

“Are you surprised?” Han Yan seemed to have noticed what Qi Jia was thinking, and said with a smile: “Don’t worry, although she has just debuted, she was taught by the national teacher himself, and her acting skills are very reliable!”

Oh~ Qi Jia understood immediately.

So that’s how it is. No wonder the little girl partnered with Zhang Yi and Fan Wei right after her debut.

Then, he directly won over Han Yan, the heroine of Little Red Flower, who turned out to be a disciple of the national master.

…

More than forty minutes later, Han Yan and Yin Lu got on a special car to the airport.

Along the way, neither of them spoke at first.

Finally, Yin Lu couldn’t help it and asked, “Hey, Lao Han, what do you think of the girl you just met in Qi Jia’s studio?”

Han Yan glanced at her, understood what she was thinking, sighed and said,

“He’s an artist from Qi Jia Studio, but the role of Ma Xiaoyuan has already been cast, so forget it. Besides, Hao Cun’s crying scenes are not bad either.”

Yin Lu thought about it, but still felt it was a pity, and said to herself,

“I just felt that when I saw her cry for the first time, the world seemed to be wrong.”
