MTL - There’s No God in Show Business-Chapter 98
"Mantes, you're too late!"
Lin Xi looked up and saw an old man with gray hair and a stunned spirit standing at the door, holding a lacquered wood crutch with a thick elbow and a thick, solemn look at himself and Onuo. When my eyes touched my body, I stayed for more than ten seconds before slowly retracting.
Raymond has a hawk nose. As he gets older, the skin gradually relaxes, and the blue eyes are a bit cloudy. The crutches seemed to be just a habit. They did not conform to the appearance of aging. Raymond walked forward to Onuo's body, saying, "Mantes, how long have you been late?"
Uno looked down and replied calmly: "About five or six minutes?"
"No! It's been a long time!"
Jun Ting frowned, Onuo said: "Raymond, I can't send myself directly to Europe like blink."
Suddenly I heard a familiar sentence in English, Lin Xi finally recovered from the state of clouds and fog. The first sentence Raymond said when he saw Uno was bitter and incomprehensible in German, and Lin Xi's level at best could only understand a sentence or two.
"Huh, I thought you were truly omnipotent." It seemed to have noticed Lin Xi's confused look, and Raymond's exit this time was fluent English.
Uno couldn't help laughing: "Raymond, this doesn't mean I can be an X-Men."
Lin Xi: "..."
Although they didn't quite understand what the words of the two said before and after, Lin Xi couldn't help but feel helpless for a while. Uno mentioned earlier that Raymond is different from ordinary people. Could it be that the difference is ...
Especially true?
The three did not stay in the corridor in front of the door for too long, followed Raymond into the short gate, and Lin Xi had the opportunity to seriously look at the things inside the building. Unlike what was expected from the outside, the entire field of vision widened as soon as the quaint old wooden door entered.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xi expected that the whole house had only two floors-the first floor and the second floor quietly merged, extracting a layer of concrete floor, and turned it into the tallest and broadest first floor. When he saw a wide range of cameras, lighting boards, rollers, spotlights, etc. of different sizes, Lin Xi suddenly understood it.
This is actually a small studio!
There are not many people in the room, only four or five sturdy big men are bowing their devices. After meeting the three of Lin Xi, they all stopped their gestures and greeted them with a smile.
"Lin, the first time I met, I wouldn't say much." Walking to the director's chair and stopping, Raymond turned to look at Lin Xi: "If you can really successfully show the person in my heart , I think we will have more opportunities to get to know each other. Now, you can follow Erica to dress up and put on makeup first. "
After hearing a word, Lin Xi said, "Director Raymond, in fact, I don't know what the plot is. Mantes didn't mention it to me when I was on the plane, and I didn't know what to audition at all."
"I specifically told Mantes to tell him not to tell you." Sharp, serious eyes stared at Lin Xi tightly, Raymond held his cane in both hands, and said, "All you need to know about the content of the audition is Words-'If you don't have the purest and most authentic feelings about music, and rely only on superb skills, then you are insulting this sacred temple!'
Listening to such incomprehensible words, Lin Xi only felt a stagnation in his throat, and before he asked again, he asked Raymond a clearer and brighter voice from behind him: "Long time, see, Onuo, Lin Xi. "Speaking in Chinese with a rounded tone, the voice is soft and sweet, listening to Lin Xi's ears has a different sense of familiarity.
He looked back in amazement, and the moment he saw someone coming, he froze-
"Chen Yajing? !!!"
A small door over two meters high opened on one side of the studio. When I entered the door, I saw a few long mirrors facing the door. Lin Xi sat in the center of a swivel chair, raised his eyes and looked at himself in the mirror, and slowly became another person under the lush fingers of Chen Yajing.
"I'm so surprised when I see it?" Chen Yajing asked with a smile while gently sweeping the youthful nose with a brown repair cake.
With a helpless smile on his lips, Lin Xi sighed and said, "I just didn't expect ... the daughter of the world-renowned director Raymond Chen would actually run into a TV show in the Tianx Dynasty as a model. consultant."
"If Li Dao hears this sentence, you must be angry." Putting down the Xiong Rong cake, Chen Yajing picked up the nose shadow brush and drew it on Lin Xi's erect nose. The nomination for the best shape design of the x Chaoxing Star Award is also very good in the industry. If it is successful, this will be my first trophy. "
Lin Xi nodded his head slightly, thinking for a while, then asked, "Is it the design of yours, sister Chen?"
Suddenly, the actions of his men suddenly stopped, and then Chen Yajing chuckled, "Who can I not be?"
"No."
With a hint of doubt in his mind, Lin Xi frowned slightly, but didn't ask questions.
From the previous brief negotiations, it is clear that Raymond is one of the most rigorous and direct directors that Lin Xi has encountered in his life. He thought that with the attitude of being finicky and delicate to each hair, he should invite a Golden Hall Award winner from Hollywood to participate in the design of the film. He did not expect that he would invite a stylist who has not even won an award. Leader.
Sure enough ... because it's your own daughter?
"You're probably thinking that Raymond used my styling consultant because of my surname Chen?"
Lin Xi heard a stunned moment and immediately denied: "No. I know, Sister Chen is very powerful."
When Chen Yajing saw Lin Xi's hasty clarification, she couldn't help smirking. "You don't have to be nervous. Compared with the big names in the industry, I'm really not good enough. Your suspicion is justified . "
Hearing Chen Yajing's admission, Lin Xi had to say honestly, "Sister Chen, you are too young."
Although more than thirty years old, compared to the well-known stylist in the industry, Chen Yajing is really only a newborn calf. Generally speaking, based on the qualifications of the other party, I should now go to some TV series and small-cost movies to practice. For a film that has been planned for many years, the stylist is definitely one of the most important links in all the processes.
"If it is, then I should be the best candidate. I have been learning their stories since I was sensible." With his fingertips, he gently smeared Lin Xi's white cheeks, Chen Yajing said, " For more than thirty years, no one in this world knows them better than me except Raymond. Lin Xi, do you know? The prototype of Onuo's character ... is my uncle and grandfather. "
Suddenly he heard the other person mention it, Lin Xi suddenly held his breath and listened quietly to the sound.
"Raymond ..." Hearing his voice, Chen Yajing's movement in his hand was also paused. She sighed in silence and continued: "Father, he was always busy, so my childhood was almost with my uncle and grandfather. I watched him caressing that white clothed piano every day, but It never bounced, and I watched him turn around every night at the yellowed photo. "
"Since I set foot in this industry, the image of my uncle and grandfather has been flexibly and vividly in my mind. I can imagine how brilliant he was when he was young, and I also fully understand that his next sixty How sad are the years. "
Chen Yajing just squinted and said quietly. She doesn't have any expression on her pretty face, but she seems to be used to this kind of sadness like still water.
Only Lin Xi and Chen Yajing were in the small dressing room, and the door was brought in, forming a quiet and low atmosphere. Lin Xi listened to Chen Yajing's soft voice, only feeling as if an invisible big hand suddenly clenched his heart, making him feel heavy.
"I don't know that person, but I know my uncle and grandfather. The person who can make him love his whole life, I think it must be a very pure and clean person." Chen Yajing's voice didn't fluctuate, it seemed to just describe a fact It's just: "If you can be that person, then you will understand why after I joined the industry, I spent more than ten years to study the shape of a movie that ... may never be turned on."
Finally, using a lip brush to gently sketch on Lin Xi's lips, Chen Yajing seems to have focused on her movements, and never meant to continue the topic just now. Lin Xi wanted to ask questions, but didn't know how to ask them.
When the last stroke was closed at the corner of the lips, Chen Yajing put the lip brush aside and said with a smile: "Okay, you're done! I can finally understand what Amé felt like, Lin Xi, give you this Face makeup is really a treat. "
He laughed twice, and Lin Xi said, "Thank you for your compliment."
Looking in the mirror at her current makeup, just a glance, Lin Xi probably understood what kind of person this is.
"To be honest, Lin Xi, you look better than that person." While packing things on the make-up table, Chen Yajing laughed: "This is definitely a great thing for many other directors. But ... Raymond doesn't think so. "
Listening to this, Lin Xi's elegant eyes were bent into a beautiful crescent shape, looking at Chen Yajing with a smile. Like a gorgeous oil painting drawn with the finest fine brushwork, the young man's always elegant and refined facial features are even more eye-catching at this moment. Then he wears a tight brown red vest, which looks even more distant. The century has gone by.
Chen Yajing was shocked for a moment, and then listened to Lin Xidan calmly and confidently said: "Sister Chen, no matter what the result, I must devote my best efforts."
She gradually awakened from the state of disappointment. She bowed her head and looked at the young man who described Yili for a long time. Chen Yajing sighed, "In fact, Lin Xi, you are really the best actor I have ever met. I hope, you Can successfully move Raymond. "
Lin Xi's look also gradually became serious: "OK."
"Go, stand in front of Raymond and let him know ... Mo Qing, who has waited for so many years, has finally appeared, and don't let this wait any longer."
Lin Xi smiled and nodded, turned and walked to the door. He just reached out to open the doorknob, and suddenly heard Chen Yajing's slight, almost inaudible voice sounding behind him: "I think ... my grandfather heard that man ... Mo Qing's words , You must have fallen in love with this frank and lovely person. "
"This may be called ... late, love at first sight."
The pace at his feet slackened, and the hand that just hit the doorknob stopped in the air. Lin Xi flashed a flash of light in his head, and he slowly turned around and gave Chen Yajing a grateful smile, saying, "Thank you, sister Chen."
Chen Yajing just shook her head with a smile, and didn't speak again.
With a crisp closing sound in the quiet dressing room, Chen Yajing slowly reached out to cover up the delicate makeup.
There was a bitter smile on her lips, and she whispered in a voice that only she could hear: "Lin Xi, come on. Uncle and grandfather have been waiting in heaven for too long ... too long."
----------
As soon as Lin Xi walked out of the dressing room, he saw Uno and Raymond standing in the center of the studio. They didn't know what they were arguing about, and Raymond's face turned slightly red, and seemed very excited.
Lin Xi has never seen Onuo's emotional ups and downs. Although he is still indifferent to a handsome face, his sudden voice raises invisibly the fact that this man is in a mood.
Can not help frowning, Lin Xi walked towards the two people. Before walking a few steps, Onuo raised his head, and his eyes instantly met Lin Xi. Without concealing the shock in his eyes, Ono's deep eyes flashed for a moment, then he lowered his head and said something to Raymond.
I saw Raymond immediately turned around, and the sharp eyes of the hawk-head were suddenly shocked when they touched Lin Xi. It wasn't until Lin Xi approached him that he sighed and said frankly, "Lin, your appearance and temperament really fit this role."
"Thank you for the compliment, Raymond."
"However, my requirements are not ordinary. I know you have made Steven movies before, but I have to tell you cruelly that my requirements are definitely three grades higher than Steven."
Steven, who was watching the flowers, sneezed across the ocean.
Lin Xi raised a brow lightly, and said with a smile: "I will go all out. I don't know, when can I start the audition?"
Raymond was surprised for a while while hearing Lin Xi's calm and confident words. He raised his hand and gestured to the lightman and cameraman, then turned to look at Lin Xi, and said, "As long as you are ready, you can do it anytime."
"Okay, so now we ..."
"Raymond, I have never heard of an audition for a movie. I didn't even tell the actors the name of the movie or the outline of the plot." Onuo narrowed his eyes and interrupted Lin Xi's words.
As soon as Raymond heard the words of the other party, he turned his head and said, "Mantes, then I must tell you the good news mercilessly. Congratulations, you saw the first movie that only told the audition actors a word. "
Onuo heard that, Qing Qing's eyebrow peaked suddenly. "It's just a sentence, without the background of the story or the character. How do you make Lin Xi show the effect you want?"
"..." After hearing this, Lin Xi realized what the two men were just arguing about.
He was about to tell Onuo that, in fact, he had just got a little ... spoiler from Chen Yajing just now. Before speaking, Raymond snorted, "It all depends on Lin, maybe Lin can show the person I want most."
There was a sneer on his lips, and Uno whispered, "Raymond, you know what it means. It's uncertain. It looks like you didn't want to turn on the phone at all!"
"Mantes, you ..."
"Well, can you let me audition first?" Lin Xi suddenly raised his pitch and said, utterly extinguishing the fire that was about to reignite. Seeing that the two of them were no longer talking, Lin Xi sighed and looked at Raymond with a smile: "Thank you Director Raymond for giving me this opportunity. No matter what the result, I will do my best."
Raymond nodded his throat dumbly, without speaking.
Lin Xi nodded slightly at him. Then he lifted his eyes, and gave Onuo a light smile, and succeeded in getting the latter back to his throat.
Raymond's audition is different from other directors' requirements. He directly auditioned according to the regular film shooting rules. Although only one camera is used, the requirements for lighting, video, and picture content quality are very high. Even the short audition was absolutely cost-effective.
The lighting engineer at the scene began to adjust the lighting board and the main light, and Lin Xi stood at the center of the studio. Suddenly, the preparation red light of a high-definition camera turned on, he looked up and looked at Raymond and Uno, who were sitting opposite and carefully looking at the monitor.
Just a glance and quickly moved away.
Gently closing his eyes, Lin Xi took a deep breath and spit out slowly. The next moment, he opened his eyes suddenly and looked at the black hole. 2k novel reading network
