Chapter 6: Cousin?
"Hello, Mr. Murong. This little lady is very polite."
Yan Danchen also followed Jiang Xin's example and called him Mr. Murong. At the same time, he loosely cupped his hands into fists and placed them by his side. He bowed slightly and made a Wanfu salute with a smile.
Looking at Murong Fu, she was a little curious.
This boy named Murong has a good appearance, right?
Not to mention his appearance, just by visual inspection, he is firmly over 1.8 meters tall, which is enough to put many actors to shame.
Her height is 16cm, which is not short among actresses.
But in front of Mu Rong, she seemed a little clinging to others.
If she was a delicate girl under 1.6 meters tall, wouldn't she have to use a suitcase to play with him?
Seeing her perform the Wanfu ceremony of the Song Dynasty, Murong Fu had a much better impression of her.
If she could put on a long traditional dress and tie her hair up, she would be no different from the Song Dynasty woman in Murong Fu's impression.
"Miss Yan, you're welcome."
Murong Fu returned the gift with his hand.
But he was wearing a suit and using ancient etiquette, which made him look a little weird.
Yan Danchen chuckled softly and asked, "Mr. Murong, can you help me read my lines later?"
Unless it's a one-man show, actors need help with their lines when auditioning.
When Murong Fu auditioned for roles, it was Yu Yan who helped him with his lines.
Yan Danchen originally wanted to find a friend she knew to help with her lines, but after being here for a long time, she didn't see a familiar actor.
Helpless, she approached the tall Jiang Xin and asked her to help her out.
However, the appearance of Mu Rong solved this problem. With such a handsome "Murong Fu" helping her in the scene, her performance will definitely be better.
"Can."
Murong Fu nodded in agreement.
He had a good impression of Yan Danchen, so it didn't hurt to help him out.
"Very good."
Yan Danchen was very happy: "Thank you so much, you have helped me a lot."
With that said, she took out the script from her bag, handed it to Murong Fu, and explained: "I plan to play the part where Wang Yuyan throws herself into a well for Duan Yu. What about you?"
Cousin threw himself into a well?
Murong Fu was in a trance, and his cousin's sad voice seemed to ring in his ears again: "Cousin, I have been sincere to you for so many years, don't you...don't you still believe it?"
That time, he really hurt his cousin's heart.
"This is what I prepared."
Murong Fu spoke softly.
"Really? What a coincidence!"
Yan Danchen was delighted: "Then we can play opposite each other!"
Murong Fu smiled and did not answer.
In fact, he was not prepared at all.
He is Murong Fu himself, what else do I need to prepare?
He originally planned to choose a section to act based on his mood after arriving here.
It just so happened that Yan Danchen was going to play the role of his cousin who throws himself into a well, so he might as well do this part too.
"Alas! Now you have become a partner, but I am now alone."
Jiang Xin pretended to sigh in depression.
"..."
Yan Danchen was a little embarrassed.
"Haha! It's okay!"
Seeing this, Jiang Xin burst into laughter and patted her chest: "With my connections, finding a partner won't be a matter of minutes?
You guys should read your lines first! I have to find my Dan Lang too!"
After saying that, she winked at Murong Fu and jumped away.
As soon as she left, Li Xue came back.
She brought back the two-faced process.
This morning is the makeup talent show, and Zhang Jizhong will participate in the whole process.
She had already asked about the place where makeup was done, and when she came back, she took Murong Fu and Yan Danchen there with her.
After seeing the long queue at the top of the stairs, Yan Danchen suggested that he just get dressed and come out, and he could put on his makeup by himself.
Yan Danchen brought cosmetics so that she could help Murong Fu put on makeup.
Murong Fu had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he always focused on family and country affairs. He really couldn't bear to do things like smearing his eyebrows and applying facial makeup.
But Li Xue insisted that he must wear makeup. This was a matter of attitude.
In the end, at his insistence, Yan Danchen only helped him trim his eyebrows and apply some foundation.
But even so, his appearance has risen to a higher level again.
The clear shape of his eyebrows made him look even more handsome, and after the foundation covered up the few faint acne marks on his face, he looked like a handsome young man walking out of a painting, so handsome that it was almost unreal.
Already.
Li Xue helped them get the number, but there were still dozens of people in front of them, so they found an empty place to rest and wait outside the conference hall door.
There were already many actors waiting outside the door. They all had their makeup set and wore character costumes.
However, Murong Fu and Yan Danchen were the most conspicuous among the crowd.
They are the two most beautiful people.
When Yan Danchen wore her own clothes, she looked a little thin.
But after putting on ancient costume, her temperament instantly became magical.
However, she is the kind of fairy who prefers to be cold and cold, more like Chang'e in the Guanghan Palace, rather than Wang Yuyan, who is refined, elegant and clean.
Murong Fu's hearing was acute, and he couldn't help but hear whispers from all around.
"Look at that pair, they're so beautiful!"
"The girl seems to be Yan Danchen, who graduated from the Film Academy with grade 96 and won the Tongniu Award for her role in "Carrying Dad to School". The boy doesn't recognize her."
"Class 96? Isn't that the same class as Xiao Yanzi? There were so many stars in that class!"
"This man is so handsome. Is he playing Duan Yu?"
"He is wearing clothes that are obviously Murong Fu's. He must be Murong Fu."
"I originally wanted to try Murong Fu, but luckily I didn't. How could such a handsome Murong Fu defeat him?"
"He may not be able to succeed. I heard that the role of Murong Fu has already been decided by Xiu Qing."
"Xiu Qing? Did you just play the Xiu Qing who played Ouyang Ke in the movie "The Condor" that Zhang Jizhong just finished filming? I saw the photos of the final makeup that were released. He is very handsome! But he is still a little behind this guy."
"I am an old man, so I must have special care! What's the use of being handsome? You have to have connections to get involved in this industry."
…
Listening to the whispers around him, Murong Fu turned to Li Xue and asked, "Who is Xiu Qing?"
Li Xue opened her mouth and was about to explain, but suddenly she looked towards the stairs and pouted there: "That's him!"
Murong Fu followed her gaze to the stairs, and happened to see a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a heroic face walking out of the elevator.
After sizing him up, Murong Fu looked away.
This Xiu Qing is indeed handsome, but there is still a gap compared to him.
The most important thing is that he is really older.
Murong Fu remembered that according to the timeline in the novel, he was only in his mid-twenties when he appeared.
But Xiu Qing is at least in his thirties, and his eyebrows are a bit sharp, and he is too heroic, which does not match his chic and elegant temperament.
However, just as he looked away, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
After a pause in his eyes, he quickly turned his gaze back to look at an elegant and pure girl who was walking out behind Xiu Qing.
His expression was momentarily astonished. Murong Fu stared straight at the girl, as if a muffled thunder exploded in his mind, making a buzzing sound.
Cousin? Why is she here too?
