After Director Zhu dealt with Julie perfunctorily, he glanced at Jiang Ran lukewarmly, looked him up and down, and then asked with a hint of disgust, "This is the Jiang Ran who is going to play Wanwan." ?”

Jiang Ran opened her mouth and was about to answer. Unexpectedly, before the words came out of her mouth, Director Zhu had already retracted his gaze and lowered his head to tinker with the machine in front of him. He didn't give Jiang Ran a chance to speak at all, and then perfunctorily followed the two of them. The man waved his hand, "Okay, since you're here, you can go do some styling first."

Jiang Ran, "???"

Jiang Ran subconsciously looked at Julie next to him, winking and silently asking with his eyes, "Didn't you say that this director likes me to play this role? That's how he likes me?! This attitude seems to like that he likes me. ?"

"Don't look at me, I'm a little confused now!" Julie was also startled for a moment and shook her head slightly at Jiang Ran. She couldn't understand the reason for Director Zhu's change of attitude for a while.

Obviously when they contacted the producer and director before, their attitudes were very humble, courteous, positive and enthusiastic. They even implicitly stated that the role of Wanwan was Jiang Ran's. Today's audition It was just a formality. Who knew they would have this attitude after they arrived? !

Who is disgusting with this impatient attitude? !

Not only did I say that I begged them to come, but they also sincerely invited them to come by sending me an invitation!

After Jiang Ran got what Julie meant, she raised her chin slightly and looked in the direction of Director Zhu, "What should we do now?"

Julie gave Jiang Ran a "reassuring" look, telling her not to worry and just leave it to her. Then he cursed the other person a few times in his heart, but smiled calmly on his face and said to Director Zhu, "Okay, Director Zhu, you are busy first. I will take Xiao Ran to do some makeup first, and I will come back later." you."

Director Zhu didn't know whether he heard it or not, so he didn't reply at all.

Jiang Ran and Julie waited for a while and saw that he didn't reply, so they turned around and left. Fortunately, there was a staff member nearby who came forward to greet them enthusiastically, "Hello, I'm Xiao Zhang. Please come with me to do makeup."

"Half the City" is a drama of the Republic of China. The character Jiang Ran is auditioning for is Song Wanwan, the younger sister of the rich second-generation male protagonist in the script. Naturally, the costume style is indispensable for the iconic costume of the Republic of China period - cheongsam. The costumes for today's audition are also several different styles of cheongsam.

Jiang Ran looked back and forth at the several sets of costumes prepared by the crew, and finally chose a light blue cheongsam upper body that was more elegant. Although this outfit is simple, after Jiang Ran put it on, it directly showed Jiang Ran's perfect body curves, with bulging front and back, tall figure, and obviously no part was exposed, but it was even more sultry. As soon as she walked out of the fitting room As soon as I walked out, I attracted a lot of people's attention.

The stylist used for the look was a staff member of the crew. According to her outfit matching, he specially painted her slender and slightly raised eyebrows, nude pink blush, and light orange lip glaze on her face to set off the look. Her skin is fairer, it doesn't look too abrupt, and her makeup is light and pleasant.

The hair style uses the spring rolls commonly used in the Republic of China, and some small pieces of hair are randomly scattered on the temples in front of the forehead, which makes the facial features more three-dimensional and delicate, giving her the feeling of a young lady during the Republic of China.

After Director Zhu saw Jiang Ran's makeup, his expression softened a little, and he even looked at Jiang Ran much more pleasantly. No matter how good her acting skills are, at least this look gives people the feeling that it is closer to the era of the Republic of China and the character "Song Wanwan".

To be honest, there is a natural barrier between the faces of idols and the faces of actors - some idols can shine on the stage and are incredibly beautiful, but when it comes to acting, their faces are so ugly that they completely expose their facial features. Even uglier than an amateur! Even when I took a photo with some ordinary-looking actors, I was directly crushed and instantly killed and became more of a passerby than a passerby.

This is because idols emphasize more on a sense of sophistication and atmosphere. idols’ makeup and stage lighting can cover up these flaws and turn them into beauties with fixed shooting angles. Moreover, as an idol, you need to attract attention on stage in the shortest possible time and give fans a sense of amazement. What is required is not the artist's watchability, but uniqueness.

Actors, on the other hand, are just the opposite of idols. During the filming process, they need various angles and lenses to shoot. Not only does the artist have to be entertaining and watchable, but it is also best to show off the drama so that the audience can watch the plot. It can be a good substitute for the time, rather than having its own characteristics in everything.

To put it simply, one looks at the overall atmosphere, and the other focuses on the facial features to look at the beauty of the bones. And Jiang Ran seems to have both. She can be dazzling and sparkling on the stage, and she can also amaze everyone on the screen.

As soon as Jiang Ranfu appeared on the scene, the onlookers couldn't help but take several photos with their mobile phones. After being threatened by Director Zhu's eyes, they took back their mobile phones in embarrassment, but were reluctant to delete them, and even said stupidly, "Don't worry, director, I will never spread the word."

Director Zhu, "..."

Can you save some face? Isn’t it embarrassing?

Jiang Ran raised her eyes slightly and glanced at the staff member who was speaking. She smiled at her and made the other person blush with embarrassment. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at her.

Director Zhu pretended not to see it, pointed to the photography area on the side, and said nonchalantly, "Take a few photos first and see."

Jiang Ran nodded, walked to the photography area very familiarly, and sculpted a few shapes according to the way he used to shoot advertising magazines. It's beautiful, but it always feels like something is missing, the photographer thought to himself as he looked at the photos in the camera.

While Julie was watching, she also noticed that the photographer's expression didn't look very satisfied. She couldn't help but tell the staff to take a rest first, then asked Jiang Ran to whisper a few words, and saw Jiang Ran order. Nod to show understanding. After she came on stage again, Jiang Ran's expressiveness improved steadily. The photographer became more and more satisfied as he took more pictures. He kept pressing the shutter button, thinking that this is what he thought the daughter of the Republic of China looked like!

After the photo shooting, Jiang Ran was taken alone to a relatively empty room. There were many staff standing or sitting on one side against the wall. The one sitting in the middle was Director Zhu who was just outside. Seeing that, When she came in, he lowered his head and flipped through some information without raising his eyes, and asked leisurely, "Have you memorized all the lines in the script I was sent to you?"

"I passed it."

"Well... Then you can play the scene when Song Wanwan first meets her brother Song Qingran and brings his girlfriend home to meet her parents." After finishing speaking, Director Zhu asked Jiang Ran symbolically with a straight face. "Is it okay to play this scene?"

Can she say no? !

Jiang Ran silently cursed in his heart, but nodded seriously on his face, "Okay, okay."

Director Zhu responded, "Okay, you can start performing when you are ready."

That's right, it's different from the first audition for "Sword Roaring Nine Provinces" where the live improvisation method was used. For this time's audition for "Half the City", the casting director has already put together a brief biography of the character and a few things that may be used in the audition. An audition clip was sent to the artist. So Jiang Ran has been studying the script non-stop for the past month, performing it, reviewing it, revising it and performing it again, just for today's audition!

Sure enough, hard work pays off, and starlight pays off to those who are on the road.

She has performed this excerpt that Director Zhu picked out no less than ten times, so she is very good at performing it now.

Jiang Ran took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes. She recalled in her mind the scene where Song Wanwan first saw her brother's girlfriend coming to meet her parents, and then began to brew her emotions...

"Brother, I'm back! I bought a very nice dress for my mother in the mall today. Take a look..." Jiang Ran made a gesture of opening the door and walking in, carrying a shopping bag that didn't exist. Jumping up and down, she shouted happily with a crisp voice. Halfway through her words, her voice suddenly stopped, as if she had seen something. The smile on her face faded a bit, and she tilted her head in confusion and asked, "Who is this? ...?"

Others should have introduced her to this place as the girlfriend her brother brought back, but no one was acting opposite her at the moment, so she could only pretend that someone was talking to her.

Jiang Ran deliberately set aside this period of time, pretending to listen, and then as this period of time passed, the smile on her face slowly dissipated, her eyebrows became tighter and tighter, and finally she had a straight face. He snorted coldly, "Sister-in-law?! Haha! I don't admit that she is my sister-in-law, she is just a toy for my brother when he is bored. Just throw it away when he gets tired of it."

Jiang Ran made a gesture of putting down the shopping bag she was carrying, then looked down at the air opposite her, touched her chin appreciatively and concluded, "The figure is average, the height is average, the appearance is average, and the temperament is average. She still has a petty attitude, she is worse than our nanny’s daughter! Brother, what do you see in her?"

After saying this sentence, Jiang Ran paused for a while to reserve time for his opponent's lines. Because according to the plot, her brother Song Qingran scolded her for being ugly and insulting, and asked her to apologize to his girlfriend.

"I won't apologize!" Jiang Ran rubbed his neck and glared at the other party unconvinced, his eyes were slightly red, and a layer of mist slowly formed in his eye sockets, and he retorted angrily, "What did I say wrong! I Which sentence is wrong! Did I just tell the truth and be insulted?! I'm right! Brother, you don't help or help me, and you yell at me because of this woman I've only known for a few months! I hate you !”

After bursting out the last sentence, Jiang Ran wiped her tears and slammed the door out. Of course, the "door" was still air.
