003 Intense competition

"Please stop at the entrance of the theater."

Lanli withdrew her chaotic thoughts and said to the taxi driver that after the car stopped steadily, Lanli paid the fare and walked quickly.

Looking at the vast team in the theater hall in front of him, Renli's footsteps couldn't help but stop slightly. As George said, there are countless people in this world who want to become actors, but few people can truly succeed. This is a thorny road, a road with uncertain future, and a road that even if moths fly into the fire and are broken into pieces, they may not be able to succeed.

Looking up, the cloudless sky was clear and clear. The golden sunlight penetrated the baby blue sky without any obstacles. The towering and dense steel forest on Manhattan Island in New York could not stop the restless heat from blooming proudly on the solid land, making people dizzy.

The irritable mood slowly calmed down with a long exhalation. He would grasp it well for the second time. Lan Li let out a long breath, put all his thoughts away, placed the skateboard at the doorman, and then walked into the hall with great strides, stood at the end of the line, and joined the queue.

Rami-malek pulled his collar to try to capture more fresh air and relieve the anxiety and anxiety in his chest, but he soon discovered that it was just futile.

The roar of the engine came from the window facing the street, the noisy shouts of passers-by, and the deafening street performance sounds at the intersection could be vaguely heard... The restlessness, countless restlessness, the restlessness that swarmed in, was vented from the vent like a flood discharge from a dam. The dust dancing in the sun seemed to be swept into a hurricane, and a riot was launched sharply and violently.

All of this contrasts with the silent silence in the hall, which makes people suffocate.

Rami couldn't help but take a deep breath again, her lungs whirring like a bellows, but to no avail. The oxygen absorbed in seemed to be insufficient to maintain the movement of her brain. He felt that he was about to faint.

Today is the fifth and last day of the audition for the actors in the TV series "Pacific War".

Although "Pacific War" is just a set of TV series, it can definitely be said to be an opportunity that every new actor dreams of hbo TV. The classic masterpiece "Brothers" brother series, the most expensive series in history, produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg... Every factor highlights the importance of this series, and can almost be said to be a work that is "destined to be successful".

Similar to "Brothers' Company", "Pacific War" gave up the long-standing actors and instead selected a large number of new actors, third- or fourth-tier actors to perform. Using "Brothers' Company" as a reference, at least one hundred characters in the play are performed with lines, and the core actors are as many as double-digit. This not only means a godsend opportunity, but every actor will win a fair opportunity; it also means a more intense competition, perhaps one in a hundred or even one in a thousand.

Across the North American continent, there are more than 400,000 actors registered in the union, and less than 10% of them can find fixed jobs. What's more, no one is willing to miss such an excellent opportunity in the "Pacific War". Rami is no exception.

He is twenty-eight years old. He has been struggling in Hollywood for nine years. He has even starred in commercial masterpieces like "Museum Night", but his career still has not improved much. Now, what he needs is a breakthrough, a breakthrough for making career progress. He hopes that the "Pacific War" can become this level.

When he was extremely nervous, Rami couldn't help but start shaking his legs. He knew that this was a bad habit, but he just couldn't suppress himself. Such unconscious small movements could distract some of his attention and at least not suffocate himself to death.

"Bang", a gentle slap came from his shoulders. Rami's muscles tightened in an instant, and she turned around suddenly, and at the same time she took a half step back, as if she was overly frightened by a rabbit.

Then Rami realized that he was too nervous and overreacted. Seeing the embarrassing astringent corner of the other person's mouth, his cheeks couldn't help but feel slightly hot. The young man standing behind him, however, the sparse sunlight gently scattered down as a college student, penetrated the golden and curly short hair. Under the mottled reflection, you could vaguely see the narrow eyebrows that looked like a long sword unsheathed. The high and straight nose bridge exuded a heroic spirit, and a few strands of lazy and messy hair hanging down on his forehead, faintly outlining a sparse, just like the mist of water above the clear lake.

"Ahem." Rami coughed twice to hide her embarrassment, "Uh... Is there anything wrong?"

"... Sorry." The young man showed an apology smile, his lazy voice was like a cat, with a hint of hoarseness in his lightness, "Please forgive me for being rude." The standard London English voice was charming and elegant, and the gentlemanly etiquette inadvertently revealed a trace of childlike innocence, and the afternoon sun became brighter.

Rami waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, I'm overreacting." Recalling his nervousness just now, Rami felt a little embarrassed and raised her hand and scratched the back of her head, not knowing what to do.

However, the young man shrugged casually, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was outlined, "I just want to ask, how much time it takes for each group to enter?" The young man pointed to the team that began to shorten in front, indicating that Rami should move forward.

Rami pulled the corner of her mouth in annoyance, took a few steps forward, followed the team, and then turned back again. The young man in front of him seemed not nervous at all, but was a little free and comfortable. The white collarless shirt and lake blue suit pants had the smell of a French artist, which made Rami a little envious, "Five people in groups. On average, each group is about ten minutes. However, the previous group went in for about fifteen minutes, and it was probably someone was attracted to it, so the audition took longer." The worries in the words were inevitably leaked, and the tension grabbed the heart again.

The young man showed a bright smile and patted Rami on the shoulder, "Don't worry, everyone's chances are the only one who can decide the result." The confidence and calmness that naturally revealed made Rami's inner irritability calm a little.

"The next group of preparations." The voice of the staff came from the door, and he explained in a nagging manner, "You are waiting at the door. After I open the door later, you hand over your information to me, then go in in order and walk to the center of the stage. Next, the casting director on the scene will issue instructions, and you can act according to the instructions. Be careful, please don't make loud noises! Don't make loud noises!"

"It should be three groups to come to us." The young man nodded to Rami, walked up to the last step, looked forward, casually rolled his shirt sleeves to his elbow position, raised his hand and combed the broken hair hanging on his forehead back. The inadvertent action had a unique charm.

Rami realized at this moment that the young man was really too tall. He was five feet nine inches (175 cm), but he was still half a head shorter than the other party. The other party looked at at least six feet two inches (187 cm). They were both standing on the stairs and steps just now, and he couldn't feel it. Now the two of them were completely standing on the same plane, Rami couldn't help but retreat a little above his momentum.

As if he noticed Rami's emotional change, the young man turned to look over and showed a friendly smile, which made Rami look in front of the other person's eyes for the first time. The narrow eyes were hidden under his handsome sword eyebrows, and his dark pupils were like the sea after the storm, deep and vast.

The young man stretched out his right hand and greeted politely, "Lanly Hall, I'm glad to get to know you for the official moment."

"Rami Marek." Rami found that he was a little clumsy and held the other person's right hand in panic. He was not a fledgling young man, but standing in front of this young man, the calm and elegant way that broke the bonds of time made him feel like he was the new actor who had not graduated from college.

During the tense moment, the concept of time seemed to have lost its meaning. I don’t know if it was ten minutes or thirty minutes later, the door opened again, and it was finally their turn to play. Rami’s brain seemed to be a little frozen, and there was no time to react. Then he saw the young man blink gently, raised his right hand and held it emptyly, as if saying: Opportunities are always in our own hands.

The smile on the corner of his mouth rose before Rami realized it. He turned his head and followed, hurriedly handed his personal information to the staff at the door, and entered the door with other actors in the same group, and the young man was following behind him.

Following the team, we walked onto the stage one after another, and the entire empty theater was full of sight. The space decorated with bright red and navy blue was solemn and solemn. The cumbersome carvings and luxurious chandeliers could see the glory of the past.

In the third row in front of the stage, there were a small group of people sitting in the fourth row, about a dozen, with different heights, fatness and thinness. They were the decision makers behind the scenes who controlled the fate of the actors. The lights in the audience were not turned on, and only the halo of a desk lamp supported a small viewing window. On the edge of the aperture, you can see a square-faced man whispering to the beard next to him, and it was Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg!

I never expected that these two top Hollywood players appeared in person at today's audition site, which was definitely a huge surprise.

Generally speaking, having casting directors, assistant directors and executive producers during the audition stage is enough. Real big-name producers have other jobs to be busy, especially top pyramids like Tom and Steven who have been working all year round. Sometimes, even if the whole show is finished, actors may not be able to meet those top producers.
